Chapter 542: Where is Long Bo?
At the gate of the East Market, an old man with a small wooden hammer in his hand, sitting on a stool and looking around, there were four craftsman apprentices standing behind him, and it was Mao Shun, the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty.
Hearing the squeaking sound of the axle of the cart, Mao Shun's heart trembled, and the wooden hammer in his hand fell to the ground.
The apprentice behind him hurriedly helped pick it up, "Let's go with you, your grandson ......"
"You all go, let's go, let's go......" Mao Shun scolded the disciples loudly, and sat back uneasily.
Long Bo drove up to him, got out of the car and saluted, "Shangyuan is healthy!" ”
Mao Shun hurriedly got up and saluted back: "Mr. Long, the little old man listens to your orders." ”
Long Bo grabbed it, approached and asked, "Is everything arranged at home?" ”
Mao Shun nodded bitterly, and Long Bo was moved: "From now on, I will leave it all to you." ”
Then he helped to load Mao Shun's hammer and saw and other tools, helped Mao Shun to get into the car and sit side by side, drove off, and headed towards the Calyx Xianghui Building of Xingqing Palace.
Mao Shun was uneasy, and the stool and Mazar were all lost and forgot to clean up.
Eight waters around Chang'an, water from the Longshou Canal, through the Chunming Gate through the Xingqing Palace to do the hydraulic canal, and then into the Chang'an City, through the Shengye Fang, Chongren Fang......
At this moment, there are the most people in Shengye Fang, because it is close to Xingqing Palace, and it is the closest to see the lights here.
The small stone bridge above the canal was already very crowded and difficult to walk, and several right guards escorted a blue-clothed official to open the way, the official held a roster in his hand, and did not care about the crowd at all, his mind was full of rosters
"No, the list of craftsmen in this lantern tower is wrong! There is something strange...... Hey, you guys, hurry up and open the way for me, I want to return to work as soon as possible. ”
"Order!"
As everyone knows, at this time, at least three big men around have already set their eyes on them.
When this person walked to the stone bridge, someone in front of him suddenly shouted: "Tianbao Xiangrui, Longtai Wannian, Shangyuan Lantern Night, celebrate with Er!" Spend money......"
A handful of copper coins were scattered, and all the people panicked to pick them up, and the scene was instantly chaotic.
Even the right guards who opened the way shouted curiously: "Someone in front of me is spending money......
The official was furious: "It's so crowded, who spends the money?" Give it to me, pull it out and kill it with a cane! ”
The right guards rushed to maintain order, and the official was left on the bridge by the crowd.
Suddenly, two strong men rushed out of the crowd, grabbed the official directly, and pressed it on the railing of the stone bridge, and the official exclaimed: "What are you doing? I am Zhang Luo, the director of the Yu Department, dare to offend? Hurry up and let it go......"
The man smiled hideously: "Obey!" ”
took out a short blade, quickly wiped it on Zhang Luo's neck, snatched the roster in his hand, and with a slight push, the head of the Yu Department fell into the canal, surrounded by people rushing to spend money, and no one cared who fell into the water or not.
A splash of blood loomed, and soon drifted away with the current, and the two men collected the roster, glanced at each other, and quietly left.
In the transportation channel of Xingqing Palace, Long Wujun was checking one by one, and Long Bo muttered: "Today's investigation is a bit strict......
"Don't worry, I've got you." Mao Shun comforted.
As he was talking, the Right Xiaowei Army was walking over, "Yo, Master Mao Shun?" ”
Long Bo took out a book and handed it to Mao Shun, Mao Shun also took out his identity credentials and handed them over together, "Hurry up, hurry up, don't delay the saint's viewing of the lantern." ”
The Long Wu army hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No need, no need, hey, hurry up and get out of the way......"
The first level is so easy to pass, and there is a second dragon martial army and a third forbidden army behind it.
"Yo, you're late today!" Long Wujun at the second level obviously knows Long Bo, and it seems that this is not the first time Long Bo has come.
Long Bo smiled: "This is not in time, there are many things." ”
The dragon martial army nodded and said: "It's not, there is no curfew today, we have been here early in the morning, this cold day is really bearable." Touch the armor on my body, it's cold. ”
Long Bo smiled, "The armor you're wearing?" Clothed, it is the favor of the saints. Cold! That's going to have to endure. ”
The team is smiling even more happily, and their eyes are shining, "You are different when you speak, and you love to poke people's hearts!" ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to ask Long Bo for a guide, and Long Bo quipped: "Also, look at it every day, it's been half a year, can't you see enough?" ”
After taking a cursory look at the road guide, the team was sighing: "Isn't it okay if we don't do this?" It's not like you, you're a craftsman, and you have a handicraft job, this Chang'an has been peaceful for a long time, and we will practice martial arts to practice a showcase, what else can we do if we take off this armor? Be a beggar on the street? ”
said that it was verified, but in fact, it was an opportunity to chat for a while. Long Bo warmly handed over a piece of jerky, not a mint leaf, the other party stood guard all day and was cold, just when he needed to eat.
"Huh? What about Zhang Luo of the Yu Department? He should follow the inspector. ”
Long Bo took back the road guide and sighed: "Director Zhang went to the street to look at the lights, and asked someone to squeeze them into the water on the bridge, but he hasn't caught it yet, so we are afraid of delaying things, so we will come first." ”
Yes?
The team didn't expect this to happen. leaned closer and reminded in a whisper: "Then if he doesn't accompany him, who is to blame if something happens?" No, it's not in order. ”
Long Bo also reminded: "In less than an hour, the saint will show off our Tang Dynasty in front of all countries, ugly, if the lights are not on, it depends on you?" ”
The team was choking, "Okay, you guys can go in." What's on this truck? ”
"Qilin arm, I'm afraid that something will go wrong, so I'm going to replace it all with a new one, which is the safest."
The team was patting and patting, and asked curiously, "Just a few of them?" ”
Long Bo pointed to the side, "Ask him." ”
"Oh, I've seen Shang Dengjian!" The team saw that it was Mao Shun and hurriedly saluted respectfully.
Mao Shun, who had been nervous just now, relaxed at the moment and asked a question: "Do you think my big lamp tower is not good?" ”
"Hey, don't dare, it's just such a big lamp tower, this overhaul of equipment seems to be a little less, dare to ask Mao Jian, is there any other spare parts to be transported? Where does it come from? ”
Mao Shun said in a deep voice: "The change is less, which shows the ingenuity of my Mao's design." A penny is a penny to be wasted! ”
The team is very moved, such a big man is still diligent and thrifty for the country, it is not easy, it is admirable.
"Quick, quick, let the hair prison in, don't miss the lamp."
Moved away from the rejection of the horse, and in the respectful salute of the Long Wujun, the carriage passed the checkpoint again.
At the same time, in the next water culvert of Xingqing Palace, dozens of people used wooden sampans, carrying buckets of fire thunder, holding torches, and walked step by step along the culvert towards the hydraulic canal of the big lamp building, but it turned out that Long Bo took Mao Shun and drove into Xingqing Palace from the front to hide people's eyes, and the real transportation of goods was from the underground where no one knew.
After many checkpoints, the carriage finally came to the front of the light tower, and when they got out of the car, Mao Shun and Longbo looked up at the same time.
"Let's go, it's time to begin." Long Bo reminded.
Mao Shun was stunned and said: "This big light tower, no one can build it except me, the drawings of the central organ, I have destroyed it, and in the future, I will never see such a great big light tower again." ”
"I promise you, everyone will remember your lamp today! The people who survive today will tell today's stories from generation to generation. A thousand years from now, there will still be people who will talk about your lamp today! ”
"Very good, very good!" Mao Shun's eyes changed, "Hurry up, let me tell you, where to install, the most effective!" ”
