In the prison cell of the Metropolitan Prosecutor, there were no horrific interrogations like in the past, and there were not even any prisoners at all.

The craftsmen have been sent back to the Horse Mansion.

Huo Lian sat in the cell, turning a small wooden bird in his hand, which was a miniature version made by those craftsmen, as he pressed a mechanism on the bird's body, and then threw it forward, the little wooden bird did not land, just like the wooden bird carrying people in the imperial city school yard that day, it flew up slowly and circled in the room.

Huo Lian didn't pay any attention to the wooden bird, and looked in the direction of the door.

Zhu Chuan walked in from outside, the wooden bird crashed into him and fell, Zhu Chuan quickly grabbed it with his eyes, and the wooden bird in his hand returned to motionless.

"Governor, are they credible?" He asked, tossing the wooden bird on the table.

Watching these old craftsmen make a small wooden bird proves that there is indeed this craft.

The old carpenters directly admitted that their skills were taught by a Mo master, but they did not join the Mo Sect.

"That master is very kind, working in our workshop to earn some rice money, we didn't know he was so good."

"At that time, the family was poor, and my wife scolded the child and cried, but he saw it, and when he left, he taught us this craft, saying that we should make it and coax the child."

"Actually, children don't like it very much, and prefer to catch real birds to play."

"We always thought it was just a toy, and after half a lifetime, it was the willow horse who reminded us to try to make it bigger, and found that we could also carry people to fly."

The old craftsmen said sincerely, and checked their net worth, and there was indeed no problem.

It is also true that ink artists like to be teachers and do not hide their private skills.

Huo Lian picked up the little wooden bird from the table, turned it in his hand, and glanced at the six-foot sword on the side.

"They are indeed not from the Momen." He said, "It's very rough."

It's not even as good as a toy with a sword.

Zhu Chuan was not interested in whether the Momen technique was rough or not: "If it is just a skill learned by chance, Your Majesty should not be disgusted, then this time the five horses can continue to be valued."

Huo Lian said, "The five horses are really rising step by step."

Zhu Chuan nodded: "This guy's luck is really good."

"Do you believe in luck?" Huo Lian suddenly asked.

Zhu Chuan was stunned and scratched his head: "Believe it, some people are lucky, and some people are unlucky."

Huo Lian shook her head and looked at the wooden bird in her hand: "I don't believe it, it's bad luck, it's my bad behavior."

For example, Liang Temple, such as the head of Luo, they are unlucky, but the reason for their bad luck is that they themselves are also at fault.

"If you're lucky, it's either your own ability, or it's just your ......," Huo Lian continued, "Someone else gave it."

Zhu Chuan was stunned for a moment, and then his eyebrows straightened: "What the governor means is that there is still a problem with this matter." After that, he clapped his hands, "Isn't it, if the five horses are really so lucky, why haven't they been so powerful in the past few years, and they are looked down upon by the princess every day, and they can't even enter the courtyard gate......

cough, don't mention the privacy of the princess's mansion.

"Indeed, the five horses are from the ......"

Zhu Chuan thought about it, his expression became a little strange, since the construction of the Star Gazing Pavilion, he was valued by the emperor.

Later, the lantern feast also had the participation of the woman.

Not to mention that the current wooden bird that can fly into the sky comes from the skill of Momen.

In other words, it was the woman who gave the five horses good luck.

"Governor! Is it her?" Zhu Chuan sighed, "I live in our house every day, and I have climbed five horses in the back."

It's not even behind the scenes, these seven stars were invited by the five princesses before, and what kind of skirt did they make, they must have been in a relationship at that time.

"No wonder I was reluctant to leave the capital, so I kept my back hand."

"Governor, go and tell Your Majesty, lest we be bitten back in the future."

Listening to Zhu Chuan's words, Huo Lian shook his head again: "It's not her."

Zhu Chuan was stunned again, wasn't she?

Huo Lian looked at the wooden bird in his hand and was about to say something, and a guard hurriedly came in: "Governor, Liu Yan said that he wanted to check the eucalyptus, and he transferred soldiers and horses from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division out of Beijing."

Zhu Chuan sighed: "What eucalyptus does he have to investigate? And use the troops?"

The guard said, "It seems to be an ink catcher."

Ink Disciples?

Zhu Chuan was stunned, and Huo Lian also looked at the guards.

"Real or fake?" Zhu Chuan frowned and asked.

Liu Yan, the old boy, has long been mixed with the ink disciples, and he would have been caught a long time ago if he could have been caught, obviously relying on the ink door to make profits.

Now that the heads of Momen have left the capital, he is making a big ......

Huo Lian didn't speak, grabbed the six-foot sword, and walked out.

Zhu Chuan hurriedly followed up and said, "Yes, let's just take a look."

But as soon as he came out, he saw a chamberlain being welcomed in.

"Governor." He smiled and saluted, "Your Majesty is invited."

Huo Lian's footsteps paused.

The chamberlain will explain his intentions in the future, because the craftsmen have been sent back, the five horses are happy, and the emperor is more interested, and he will continue to fly the wooden bird, and this time he will try to carry weapons.

moved the weapon, and even more wanted Huo Lian to guard by his side.

Hearing this, Zhu Chuan swallowed the sentence that we all have something to do, and I went to accompany the driver.

Everyone said that Huo Lian was domineering, and even the emperor didn't take it seriously, but in fact, the governor's domineering was only allowed by the emperor.

"Okay." Huo Lian bowed to the inner servant, "I'll go now."

The waiter smiled: "The slave and maid are waiting for the governor in the car."

Watching the chamberlain walk away, Huo Lian handed the six-foot sword in his hand to Zhu Chuan.

Zhu Chuan hurriedly took it and said, "I will personally follow Liu Yan, and when the time comes, no matter whether he catches the ink disciple or is caught by the ink disciple, he will not be able to escape my palm."

Well, it seems a little weird about that, but it doesn't matter.

Huo Lian smiled, "You don't have to go."

Don't you? Zhu Chuan was puzzled, so he didn't care?

"Give the sword to Liang Liuzi." Huo Lian said, "Tell him that if he can't give this sword to the Seven Stars, the Great Wall of the North won't exist in the future."

……

……

The black cars on the royal street surrounded by the black pressure guards galloped, and the officials on the road were busy avoiding them, even if there were cars and horses walking in front.

Uncle Li was among them, and his evasion made several officials on the street laugh.

"Master Li, you still have to give way." They quipped.

Uncle Li Guo smiled and said, "In terms of official position, Huo Dudu is bigger than me, of course I have to avoid it."

Although this good old man does not step on the low, he is extremely good at holding high, the officials smiled and said no more, Uncle Li Guo lowered the curtain of the car and took the tea handed by a person dressed as an old servant in the car.

"It's not difficult to see Your Majesty, but when you see Your Majesty, you have to take your time if you don't get dragged out and cut off your head." He said.

The old servant lowered his head: "Sinners know and are willing to wait patiently."

Uncle Li Guo took a sip of tea and smiled, "Then wait for the five horses to get the holy favor again, and the good news from Lord Liu, it shouldn't be too long."

The old servant leaned over in the car: "Everything has Master Lao Li."

……

……

Officials on the imperial side of the city went in and out, and more officers and soldiers came and went at the gate of the capital than in the past.

Zhang Yuan didn't care, squatting in the corner of the wall as if he was asleep, and suddenly heard a voice calling him, "Boss!"

Zhang Yuan raised his head and saw a passing officer and soldier stop at Lerma, who was his former companion in Jingzhao Mansion.

"Bolt, I'm on a business trip." Zhang Yuan said, waving his hand again, "I'll take care of my aunt."

The bolt did not leave immediately, but beckoned to Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan walked over patiently.

"Dali Temple mobilized soldiers and horses to catch the ink disciples." The bolt whispered, "I heard that the officers and soldiers outside have surrounded the ink disciples."

Zhang Yuan was stunned, the word Mo disciple was already a little unfamiliar.

The officers and soldiers in front were shouting the name of the bolt, and the bolt said to Zhang Yuan, "Boss, when I catch them this time, I will definitely interrogate the whereabouts of the rolling dragon."

Zhang Yuan looked at him, "Do you remember?"

"Don't you remember, boss?" The bolt asked rhetorically, and said hatefully, "You are because he has been so harmed, I will not forget."

After that, he didn't stay any longer, and urged the horses to keep up with the officers and soldiers.

Zhang Yuan stood in place and watched, his expression becoming complicated.

"I don't remember being so killed." He said to himself, his blank eyes gradually condensed, "What I can't forget is that the eucalyptus is not finished."

With these words, he turned and ran towards the stable, and the next moment he turned over and galloped away from the city.

Behind him, the shouts of the guards were chaotic.

"Zhang Yuan, you are evading again—"

……

……

The school grounds in the imperial city were full of officials, and it could be said that there were a lot of people compared to the last time.

Who doesn't want to see a wooden bird that can fly with a human on its head.

"I still want to sit on it." One official said, holding his gray beard, "I haven't flown yet."

This made everyone around laugh.

Although they will laugh at wishful thinking when they hear that they want to fly, in fact, who doesn't want to fly in their hearts and try it.

Not only the emperor was on the high platform over there, but the queen and the concubines and princesses of the harem also came, pointing curiously at the wooden birds in the field.

"But today is not a show of being able to fly." Liu Juma said to the emperor and empress concubines, "It's to demonstrate the power of shooting, it may not look good."

Of course, the emperor didn't care if it looked good or not, and asked, "Do you need someone to carry a bow and arrows on your back?"

As he spoke, the skinny handyman from the last time was climbing the wooden bird.

I already knew that this was a specially selected person of thin stature and light weight, so short that he was naturally not a good soldier, and he had not even held an arrow.

Even if such a person can fly in the world, the arrows he shoots cannot threaten people.

"No, it's a repeater added to the wooden bird, and the operator doesn't need to have arm strength and archery skills, as long as he can pull the mechanism, he can shoot heavy arrows."

The emperor was overjoyed, and then looked at the plate armor that had been erected in the field, and hurriedly urged: "Try it quickly."

Liu Juma immediately waved his hand to the audience.

Under the gaze of everyone, the woodbird rushed up the slope, and then staggered and flew up amid countless exclamations.

The shocked wooden bird that I had never seen before could really fly, and the one who had seen it before stared at the plate armor on the ground, and the willow horse waved his hand again, and the handyman lying on the wooden bird did not know what he had done, so he saw three crossbow arrows suddenly shot out from under the bird's belly, and the tuk tuk tuk shot into the plate armor on the ground.

Immediately after the plate armor, a janissary stood up, raised the plate armor and shouted.

"Piercing!"

There were even louder cheers on the school grounds, especially the generals.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations to Da Zhou for getting this artifact!" They shouted excitedly.

The emperor standing on the high platform laughed, and asked Huo Lian beside him, "How is this bird's archery skills better than yours?"

Huo Lian said, "It's on par with the minister."

The Emperor laughed again, "That's pretty good!"

Huo Lian nodded, looking at the wooden bird that was planted on the ground.

Yes, it's amazing, and the rough skills can do it, I don't know how far the real Momen skills can go.

……

……

The sun shone on the earth, and on an official road outside a small town, there stood an inn.

I don't know if it's because it's remote, or if today's daylight is too dazzling, there are no pedestrians on the road, and the inn is closed, only the front of the door is swaying in the wind.

As a group of dozens of soldiers and horses appeared on the road, the dazzling sunlight was a little dim.

The leader, whose hat covered half of his face, waved the knife in his hand vigorously, and the soldiers behind him rushed towards the inn like a tide, the horses' hooves trampled, the ground trembled, and the inn in his sight seemed to rise and fall, as if it was about to shatter in the next moment.

The walls of the inn seemed to be really shattered, and a strange wooden frame stretched out, and the next moment, a cold light flashed in the leader's vision.

The wind swept on the flat ground, and in the meantime it was like a ghost crying, and the dense rain of arrows came overwhelmingly.

The leader only felt his body numb, and swung his long knife forward and hurriedly backwards.

"Backwards—"

"Backwards—"

With the sound of neighing, the horses neighed, some soldiers and horses fell backwards, some soldiers and horses collided before they could close their momentum, and some soldiers and horses rolled and threw themselves to the ground.

The array of soldiers that had been pouring in like a flood instantly stirred into chaos.
