Chapter 507: Count a Hexagram
When Du Qiushi heard this, he couldn't help coughing a few times.
Guo Wei knew that his words were a little demeaning to Du Qiushi, so he was a little embarrassed, and looked at Du Qiushi with apologetic eyes.
Unexpectedly, after Du Qiushi finished coughing, he sighed with a smile, shook his head and said, "Compared to Xiao Xun, I am indeed a drag."
Although Guo Wei is young, he has good archery skills. Even if he encounters an enemy on the road, his ability to escape must be stronger than his. But he is such a sick and weak body, except for adding a burden to Zhao Fuling, he can't do anything.
Thinking of this, Du Qiushi's smile was a little bitter.
Seeing this, Zhao Fuling didn't want to say anything, so she only told Guo Wei with a solemn face: "Since you're here, I won't drive you away." But along the way, we must act obediently and not act on our own."
Guo Xun hurriedly nodded his little head and promised, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to Sister Zhao."
Zhao Fuling curled her lips and didn't say anything.
Du Qiushi was not in good health, and he was tired all the way, so Zhao Fuling told them to rest first and then rush the next day.
The next day, as soon as it was dawn, everyone began to prepare to leave.
Unexpectedly, before he left the city, he heard that there was a death in the Lin'an official office, and Lin'an City was going to be sealed and no one was allowed to enter or leave.
As soon as Zhao Fuling's carriage arrived at the city gate, they were stopped and persuaded to return.
Le Zhan frowned and went to find out the news, but he didn't know what to say, but he was arrested as an assassin. Zhao Fuling hurriedly went to explain, but was arrested as an accomplice.
Everyone didn't expect such a change to happen in Lin'an, Guo Wei almost couldn't help but move, but it was only after Zhao Fuling made a look that she endured it.
The people who were arrested at the city gate were not only Le Zhan and Zhao Fuling and his party, but also other people who were preparing to leave the city.
But Zhao Fuling observed around and found that among the people who were arrested, without exception, they were all in carriages and dressed more affluently and outstandingly.
That is, it looks rich.
Therefore, their arrest should not be an accident, but a deliberate act by these people.
Everyone was arrested and taken to the Lin'an official mansion, but they were not sent to prison, but were invited into the hall of the council.
After waiting in the hall for a while, the behind-the-scenes commander finally arrived.
Zhao Fuling hid in the crowd and took a look, and found that the person who came was very young, about early twenties. Dressed in the armor of the defenders of Lin'an City, he looks like a person in the barracks.
As the man approached the hall, he looked around the crowd and finally sat down at the top.
"As you may have heard, our garrison of Lin'an City was assassinated early this morning. After being investigated by our brothers in the camp, the murderer is hidden among you. There are also female relatives among your companions, and it is not convenient for us to start searching, so please prove your innocence!"
As soon as these words fell, someone panicked and said, "I, we are good people, Master Jun, the assassination of Lord Garrison has nothing to do with us, please let us go......
Seeing this, the young man looked at him and smiled slightly and asked, "How do you prove that it has nothing to do with you?"
The words "how to prove ......" stumped the man, and the others looked at each other.
The people in their barracks are arresting the murderer, and if there is evidence, they should directly present the evidence to arrest the person. Why did you arrest so many people and ask them to prove it themselves?
What is the rationale for this?
Le Zhan's brows were about to twist into a dead knot, and when he was about to hold it back, Zhao Fuling spoke.
She looked at the young man, took out a stack of silver tickets from her arms, and said slowly, "Master Jun, we stayed at the Fu'an Inn last night and didn't leave until after dawn before we checked out and went to the city gate. It was at the city gate that I heard the news of the assassination of the garrison, and the murder of the garrison really had nothing to do with us."
When Zhao Fuling said this, the silver ticket in her hand was held all the time, and she had no intention of putting it down.
The young man looked at her, his eyes rolling on the silver ticket, his eyebrows furrowed, and there was a hint of interest in his eyes.
He glanced at the soldiers around him, who immediately stepped forward and snatched the stack of silver tickets.
That pile of silver bills was roughly estimated to be at least a thousand taels of silver. But the young man didn't seem to be satisfied, and asked Zhao Fuling: "I heard that your accent is not from our Lin'an, what are you doing in Lin'an?"
Zhao Fuling half-lowered her head, and her voice was soft: "My brother has been plagued by illness for many years, and this time I have come to Lin'an to seek medical treatment."
"Oh? Which one is your brother?"
Du Qiushi raised his head in time, he was handsome, but his face was very pale. Just by looking at his appearance, he knows that he is a sick seedling.
The young man looked at it a few more times, and finally waved his hand and said, "Okay, then you can go."
Zhao Fuling said gratefully, "Thank you, Master Jun."
She got up and took advantage of the situation to pull Du Qiushi and Guo Wei up.
But who expected, as soon as Le Zhan stood up, the young man said, "Hey", "Wait, this man, who are you?"
Zhao Fuling looked back at Le Zhan, and was about to make up an identity casually, when the young man said, "Why do I think he makes me feel familiar? Could he be the Assassin, right?"
This is simply nonsense, and the other party clearly intends to ask for silver again.
But Zhao Fuling didn't bring much silver on this trip, and she had basically given it out. Le Zhan was a bull temper again, frowned and glanced at the young man, and didn't want to pay attention.
Seeing that the other party's face sank, Guo Wei hurriedly said, "Brother, you misunderstood, my father is a good person."
"Good guys?" The young man smiled and said, "How do you prove that he is a good man?"
Guo Huan's teeth itched when she heard the word "proof", but she was reluctant to let her take the money. After thinking about it, she took out the copper coin tied with red thread from her neck, blinked her eyes and said, "Why don't I calculate a hexagram for my brother?"
Zhao Fuling, Le Zhan: "?"
The young man became interested, he got up and walked down, stood still in front of Guo Xun, and asked with a smile, "You still know how to tell hexagrams?"
"A little bit." Guo Wei's eyes blinked, revealing an innocent and ignorant look, "When I was a child, I had a poor body, and I was sent to the Taoist temple by my father to live for ten years, and my master taught me to tell divination."
The young man tilted his head slightly, and his smile deepened: "Then you give me the math to see when I can do it?"
"Done?" Guo Wei raised his eyebrows and asked rhetorically, "What's going on?" My brother is too general, so I need to be specific."
The young man laughed, he looked at Guo Xun, his voice suddenly lowered, and said, "Then even if you count my family guard, when will you die?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone around them was shocked!
Seeing that Guo Wei was also stunned, the young man raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Little girl, can't you count it?"
Guo Xun was suddenly pulled back to her senses by these words, she settled down, and then lowered her head and said, "Yes."
With that, he untied the coin from his neck, then squatted down on the spot and turned the coin around.
