Cangzhou 1

Half a month ago Cangzhou

On the cliff, a scarlet figure hung upside down like a hawk perched quietly between the huge stone crevices.

And at the bottom of the cliff, there was another cold and tall beautiful horse galloping by, as if a fierce and heroic murder weapon crossed the sky, rushing like wind and thunder towards the treacherous front......

At this moment, the cold woman below seemed to sense something, and suddenly reined in the horse, and the horse neighed and raised its front hooves, and then landed steadily on the loess earth.

Between the lightning and flint, the vermilion phantom above the cliff flew down from the sky, like an eagle soaring from the sky!

The cold woman was stunned for a moment, and then quickly raised her sleeves, and three lightning silver lights shot out from the bottom of her sleeves......

The three lancets visibly grazed the top of the Scarlet Phantom's head, neck, and shoulders, forcing the Scarlet Phantom back for a moment.

But at this moment, the vermilion phantom appeared in front of the cold woman horse with a strange and clear figure, and her hand had firmly grasped the reins!

Seeing this, the cold woman rubbed her eyebrows and sighed. "Sister Chi Kite."

"Sister."

"Sister Chi Kite, go back, I'm going back to Puzhou on an errand day, so naturally I can't take you with me this time."

The Scarlet Phantom, a woman with an equally beautiful face but a blank expression, spoke, "The old master said yes."

"Aya also wants to send three or five hundred Zhuo family soldiers for me to take to Puzhou to follow him, he is an old man and willful, do you also follow him to mess around?" The cold woman had a headache.

"They're in the way, I won't." The red kite insisted.

"Of course I know Sister's skills," the cold woman was equally determined. "But I've been working in Puzhou for three or four years, and I've long been able to take charge on my own, so my sister just needs to go back with confidence."

The red kite stood in place, still not leaving.

The cold woman's heart softened, and after a while, she hesitated, "Then I...... I should go back to Puzhou first to ask for instructions, otherwise the military order is like a mountain, and my sister doesn't want me to violate the military order, right?"

"Okay." A glimmer of joy flashed on the expressionless face of the red kite, and then the figure flashed and disappeared again.

The cold woman covered her forehead, only to feel that her head hurt even more......

Late at night, heavy rain poured down......

The "Mountain Bird Station" 300 miles away from Puzhou is located in a remote area and is rarely visited, and most of the people who come to settle down and stay are the urgent reports of the people who run through the north and south of the world.

The front lobby and post house are arranged in an orderly manner, and at the back is a slick horse drinking pond and stable, with thirty horses, for the use of the traveling officials and the urgent messengers.

"Mountain Bird Station" is close to the foot of the mountain, and you can take shelter from the wind in winter, but in the past few days, the rain and fog have broken through the big hole and the torrential rain has fallen wildly, and the rain and fog stirred up have firmly enveloped these dozens of post houses, as if they have been swallowed.

At the entrance of the post station, the two post soldiers guarding the door shrank their necks and hands, although there were eaves on the top to cover their heads, but the hem of their clothes and trousers was still wet by the rain, and it was extremely uncomfortable to stick to their bodies coldly.

The post soldier Hu Dase shrank and couldn't help but hide again. "This damn weather, if it goes down again, our post station will be flooded."

"What can't be drowned is that it's very humid all day," Nan Jiyun, another post soldier, rubbed his beard and sighed. "It would be nice if I could drink a big bowl of hot and spicy ginger soup before I was on duty, so that my body would be warm and my standing guard would not be so boiling...... Alas, we don't have much oil and water in the mountain birds."

"Don't let Yi Cheng hear this, where are those old gingers missing?" Hu Dachao took a sip of heating in his palm and said with a smile. "There are nine post stations in the entire territory of the Tang Dynasty, including 1,297 land posts, 260 water posts, and 86 land and water stations...... It's a good idea."

"Is this a matter of missing a few pieces of old ginger?" Nan Jiyun snorted. "Don't button your hat indiscriminately, is there something wrong with what I said?"

Hu Da changed his numb feet, and said with a smile calmly. "Don't be angry, that's not what I meant......

"Every year, the imperial court allocates a lot of money to various post stations to raise soldiers and horses, but when we come here, it is clear soup and cakes every day, and only the urgent messengers and officials who stay and rest can eat some meat and fishy ......" Nan Jiyun resented and was cautious. As for us, snort! Not to mention the mutton foam, even the sesame seeds on the top of the hu cake are rare."

Xu is dead of night and heavy rain is pouring, Hu Da, who has always been cautious, was aroused, and he couldn't help but sigh, lowered his voice and said carefully

"It's just the side of it, I can endure it if I eat well, I only have one thing to worry about...... The Ministry of War stipulates that the post horse is not allowed to be used in the post station on weekdays unless it is urgent, but the brother-in-law of the post man comes to borrow the post horse at the end of three days, saying that he is going out to do business...... Our post horses are all branded with the word 'out' on their heads, so that if they are seen by sharp-eyed and knowledgeable people, they will not be able to run up and down the post station."

Nan Jiyun's expression was gloomy, revealing a hint of irritability. "There is someone on top of the post, we are all making a living under him, even if we are unwilling in a thousand ways, we can only help hide it?"

Hu Da licked his lips, "But if the deeds are revealed......

Nan Jiyun shuddered, and still raised his head inwardly and said, "What is the revelation? Our birds don't lay eggs on the ground, and they don't say that they can't leave the sky with one hand, who will find out? Even if they knew, no one dared to report it...... That's it, it's all because today's heavy rain has made people upset, and we are both confused, and we are chewing on this more."

Hu Da has always been more timid and afraid than Nan Jiyun, and seeing that Nan Jiyun was silent, he quickly changed the topic

"That's that, the sky is falling from an elder on top, what kind of heart do we have for nothing? Anyway, have you seen the two waves of people who stayed at the inn yesterday? I have heard it often said that the man in the lead is tall and handsome, and the two guards are also tall and strong, and the later girl is alone, born cold and beautiful, but her face is like frost...... I don't know where it came from?"

Nan Jiyun groaned. "I heard that the certificate held by the man is a bronze talisman issued by the province under the door, and the girl is a coupon issued by Puzhou, so I can't hear out if there are many of them...... I'm afraid we won't be able to hear it."

Hu Da shook suddenly, and his face turned pale. "Erlang, could it be a messenger from the capital who came to Weifu for a private visit, eyeing our 'Mountain Bird Station'?"

Nan Jiyun said angrily: "You think this is singing opera, and you are still paying a private visit...... But one or two stagecoaches are a big disaster for us, but in the eyes of those adults above, they are just trivial things.
