Chapter 33: The Secret Words of the Alliance
Lin Zhongtian was a little speechless when he heard this: "Then why did you want to create this alliance?" ”
Zhao Lihe explained: "In order to protect myself, by the way, I will give those descendants of the Qi family army who are unwilling to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty a home, and although the alliance is now a little more powerful, it is still an intelligence organization in the final analysis, and it can't be compared to the rebellion, right?" ”
“…… Do you know what your allies are doing right now? ”
"Do what?"
"They are recruiting righteous people everywhere and inducing them to rebel."
"Huh?"
Zhao Lihe was a little dumbfounded.
Lin Zhongtian was speechless: "You don't know, right? ”
Zhao Lihe was a little wronged: "Big brother, I'm in the prison, let alone the news of the Alliance, even after I was put into the prison, I don't know what happened to my senior brother!" ”
“……”
The corners of Lin Zhongtian's mouth twitched, and he was speechless with Zhao Lihe.
After drinking the pot of tea, Zhao Lihe pondered it and said, "Brother Lin, I have a way to contact Ding Xiu and them, but I don't know if you want to show up, Brother Lin......
"What's not to want to do here."
Lin Zhongtian Huo Ran got up, picked up the sheathed sword that was placed diagonally next to the stone table, and glanced at Zhao Lihe, who was still sitting there.
"What are you waiting for? Let's go! ”
Zhao Lihe shook his head and said solemnly: "Now that it has only been one night since the robbery of the prison, it is the time when the whole city is under martial law, if I take the risk to go with you, it will only drag you down, or big brother, you go alone, I will tell you the way to contact Ding Xiu and them, as well as the secret words to verify the identity of the alliance......"
"Wait!" Lin Zhongtian raised his head and interrupted him, and said with a smile, "You don't think that your eldest brother and I are not wanted, right?" ”
"Wanted must be wanted, but they don't know what you look like after all......"
"I'm not talking about robbing prisons, I was already a wanted criminal in the government before I got you out."
"Huh?"
Zhao Lihe was dumbfounded again, and couldn't help asking, "Big brother, what did you do?" ”
Lin Zhongtian said lightly: "It's nothing, it's just that I saw a few officers and soldiers killing good people and taking risks, so I couldn't help but kill them." ”
"How many?"
"At first, I only killed twenty-seven, and I can't remember how many I killed later."
“……”
Zhao Lihe didn't know what to say, so he could only sigh with emotion that he was bold.
Lin Zhongtian said with a smile: "Don't worry, I see that the armament of this capital is extremely lax, and I didn't even hide my appearance when I entered the city, and the city gate guard not only didn't recognize me as a wanted criminal, but even regarded me as a noble son in the capital, and flatteringly welcomed me into the city. ”
Zhao Lihe shook his head: "Brother Lin, you should have just met the new city gate guard, I know the former city gate guard, he has strong martial arts and excellent eyesight, he can recognize the wanted criminals in the crowd at a glance, and he is also a treasure for the big people in and out of the capital, but it's a pity that this guy is a member of the eunuch party, and now he should have been dealt with by Zhu Youzhen." ”
"So I'm just lucky?"
"That's right."
Zhao Lihe nodded, pondered for a while, and said: "That's it, Brother Lin, let me tell you the secret language, you go outside the Dongzhi Gate, find a whitebark pine with Y-shaped cracks on the bark, and carve a secret word on the trunk, once they see the secret language, they will naturally come here to see me." ”
"No problem!"
Lin Zhongtian responded with great interest, and then asked suspiciously.
"But wouldn't it be too obvious to engrave the secret words directly?"
"Don't worry, it doesn't matter if someone else finds out, because this secret language is not actually a secret language, it's just a dot drawn on the bottom left of the vertical Y-shaped rift......"
Saying that, Zhao Lihe paused, and asked with a smile: "Big brother, if I don't tell you how to decipher the secret language, can you figure out the real meaning behind this secret language?"
Lin Zhongtian thought about it with great interest, but quickly shook his head.
"Add a dot to the bottom left of the Y word, this symbol can represent too many meanings."
"Then what if I tell you that this Y-shaped rift actually represents the Big Dipper?"
"The Big Dipper?" Lin Zhongtian thought thoughtfully for a while, and finally suddenly realized, "I see! ”
"Big brother has figured it out?" Zhao Lihe asked with a smile.
"Of course." Lin Zhongtian nodded, and replied with a smile, "The word Y represents the Big Dipper, which means that what you care about is not the bucket spoon, but the bucket handle, and the biggest role of the bucket handle in this era is to point out the direction and judge the season. ”
"It's April spring now, and the direction of this bucket handle is naturally east, and a dot is engraved on the left side of the bucket handle, which means that you are hiding in the secret house in the southeast city of the capital at the moment - how, am I right?"
“…… It's a big brother! ”
Zhao Lihe applauded in admiration and slapped his ass not too much.
Lin Zhongtian smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Wait for my good news!" ”
With that, he then jumped and left the secret house.
The so-called secret house refers to the house hidden in the streets and alleys, and there is no street facing the front and back.
Taking the secret house where Lin Zhongtian and Zhao Lihe are located as an example, the front and back doors of the house are not facing the street, but next to a few shops.
The shops enclose the house in the middle, and there are no doors to enter and exit, and they can only be connected to the outside world by means of climbing over the wall or through a hidden secret passage under the bed.
It's like a dark room hidden in the middle of the city.
There are not a few secret mansions like this in the capital, and they are all used by those big people to avoid disasters.
And the secret mansion where Zhao Lihe is located was actually secretly purchased by Zhu Yiluo, the king of Qin.
The secret passage under the bed was also dug by the people he sent to the Qin Palace.
It's a pity that in the forty-sixth year of Wanli, Zhu Yiluo, the king of Qin, died of illness and was nicknamed "Su", and the secret house he secretly purchased before his death was abandoned because of this.
Later, the power of the alliance developed to the capital and bought the pharmacy on the front street of the house, only to discover the secret house hidden behind the pharmacy.
As for how the alliance knew that this secret mansion belonged to the King of Qin, it was very simple, they dug up several corpses of the people of the Qin King's Mansion in the suburban forest connected by the secret passage, and also found a wooden plaque engraved with the three words of the Qin Palace.
I don't know if the people who did things at that time were too careless, or they didn't care at all, so they didn't destroy the evidence that could prove the identity of these corpses, and directly dug a pit on the spot and buried the corpses in a hurry.
This is a cheap alliance, and after confirming that no one in the Qin Wangfu knows about this secret mansion now, he immediately takes it for himself.
There are still seven or eight secret mansions in the hands of the Alliance that have been obtained by similar means.
Therefore, Jin Yichuan and Ding Xiu could not determine the specific location of Zhao Lihe.
At noon, Jin Yichuan finally left the medical hall, but unlike when he came, Jin Yichuan at this time had an extra sachet in his hand that exuded a faint medicinal fragrance, which was a gift from the girl in the medical hall.
Smelling the cool medicinal fragrance emitted by the sachet, Jin Yichuan couldn't help but show a smile on his face.
Fortunately, this hazy feeling, which was still in the ambiguous period, did not affect his methods.
Before entering the Dongzhi Gate, Jin Yichuan still habitually glanced at the pine forest next to him.
With just one glance, Jin Yichuan's face changed greatly, and he immediately stopped and confirmed carefully.
A minute later, Jin Yichuan hurriedly walked into the Dongzhi Gate, and the black flying fish suit made no one dare to stop the city gate guards.
At this time, Jin Yichuan's face had regained his calm, but the pace under his feet became faster and faster, and he couldn't help but feel bursts of excitement and excitement in his heart.
"Great!"
"It turns out that Brother Zhao is in the secret mansion in the southeast city."
"I'm going to find a way to tell this news right away."
