"Life and death cards?"

"This kind of sign will have the name of the general written on it, first, it is more convenient for the people in the army to record, second, it is convenient to prevent outsiders from mixing in the army, and third, what is it...... That is, if this group of people accidentally dies outside that day, and the corpses are tattered, and they can't even be wrapped in horse leather, this brand will replace their corpses, and the people who replace them will return to their hometowns and return to their roots. ”

But if this person does not die, the brand will not be taken back, but you must know that the only reason why this kind of person leaves the army and returns home without dying is that they have broken arms and legs, or they are estranged and can no longer go to the battlefield, so that they can have the opportunity to go home.

This is a retirement.

The sign will not be taken back, but the name on the sign will be erased.

I don't know if the brand was erased because they had withdrawn, or if the person who did it didn't want others to find out.

After listening to my explanation, Song Yuan nodded: "Who are the other two?" Beggars and ...... Prisoners in prison? ”

"That's how it should be."

Song Jiu, who had no sound just now, and the old man didn't know when he came to his senses, and the two of them slowly walked to us, strange to say, this old man's body was already old and rare, first fell from above, and then was just rolled from above to below by the water.

I almost fell top-heavy, why didn't he look uncomfortable at all? Not even a single scar on his body.

It's as if we saw them from behind the door before, and they still look like they are.

At most, my clothes are a little wet.

I sensed something was wrong, but I didn't have time to ask them what was going on, so I just gave them a faint look and didn't say anything else.

Song Jiu came over and looked at the stone statue on the ground, and said to us, "It seems that you all know about this place?" Hey, legend has it that two hundred years ago, when the Qing army returned to their hometown, they lost more than 100 people, and the corpses of more than 100 people were hidden here. ”

I didn't believe it: "That's a soldier too, how can he be so easy to fool?" ”

"Actually, it's just that you think that such soldiers are not easy to fool, such people just need to intercept them, say that there is something, or that their predecessors are looking for them, and bring the soldiers down, and bring them into this tomb, and then tell those people outside that there are frequent wars, soldiers are killed in battle, and the corpses cannot be found, so they can be sent away, and at that time the surrounding turmoil is very chaotic, and no one will doubt it at all."

Song Jiu seemed to have experienced all this, and she continued: "As for the others...... Whether it was a beggar or an exile, in those days, it didn't matter if there were more beggars or less, but in prison...... Isn't it enough to have a good relationship with the catchers? This kind of thing won't be noticed at all. ”

In this way, the three-pronged approach was made in a blink of an eye.

I wanted to ask again, but suddenly Song Jiu pointed behind me: "There is something in that place." ”

I remembered that she was not an ordinary person, and her eyes were naturally different from ordinary people, so I turned my head and looked in the direction behind me.

There were two pieces of stone stuck in the wall, and I could feel something carved on them with my hands, and I pulled them out and put them in my hand: "This thing looks familiar." ”

Song Yuan leaned over curiously: "What?" ”

"I've probably used this charm, or maybe I've seen it somewhere, it's so dimly lit that I can get a rough outline at best."

Song Yuan took these two stone pieces and walked to the side to study, and I asked Song Jiu in a low voice: "Your sister is quite afraid of water, right?" ”

She didn't seem to expect me to ask.

After hearing my question, she nodded a little embarrassed.

"Blame me for this."

It turned out that Song Jiu was not the biological daughter of the Song family, the Song family and his wife were wide and fat, but Song Jiu couldn't see the long meat no matter how he ate, and the people around him said that she was not the biological daughter of the Song family.

Song Yuanpi likes to make noise, and the Song family and his wife are also warm-hearted, but this Song Jiu's appearance of not entering every day is gloomy and unpopular, and he is not liked at all.

And when the Song family and his wife saw Song Jiu for the first time, the latter was still nested in the temple, trembling.

"Our family was poor, when I caught up with the famine, my biological parents couldn't support me, so they threw me into the broken temple, I was not completely blind at that time, when I reached the age of twelve, my eyes were bad, I could hear ghosts but could not see human faces, when I suddenly heard a strange sound outside, so I ran to the water's edge, I saw a dragon appear in the water, surprised, the body rushed towards the dragon uncontrollably. But I can't swim. ”

After she finished speaking, she let out a long sigh: "If it weren't for Song Yuan, I would have died when I was twelve years old. ”
