453 Tomb Guard
On the top of Li Mountain, between the clouds and mist, a figure glided through the air, and it was by leaping forward that it flew to Lin Ze in the camp.
Just as Lin Ze opened his hands and felt the beauty of the peaks of Lishan Mountain and the exceptionally refreshing air, suddenly a commotion came from a distance, and the shouts of the warriors and the roars of the beasts were mixed together, and they were chaotic.
Lin Ze immediately turned around and found that on a mountain not far away, five strong men in armor were hunting a black tiger.
The black tiger turned into a black shadow and fled in a hurry between the mountains and forests, trying to escape the fate of death.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard the black tiger tried to escape, it still couldn't completely get rid of the pursuit of the five black armor men.
Lin Ze took a closer look, and found that the black tiger was moving quickly, and its body movements were very uncoordinated, and after a closer look, there were faint traces of blood on its hind legs, it turned out that it had suffered a loss and was injured, no wonder it couldn't escape.
The five black-armored men seemed to be sure that the black tiger would not be able to run away, and they were not in a hurry to catch up, so they scattered and hung far behind the black tiger, for fear that if they forced it to be in a hurry, the beast would still be trapped and fight back to death.
At a glance, the discerning people knew that they still had the strength to spare, and with the idea of consuming the black tiger's physical strength, they successfully hunted this black tiger at the lowest cost.
This black tiger didn't seem to be aware of the intentions of the five people, and still ran wildly, but those eyes, with a cunning and murderous light from time to time, and the leg injury that was gradually healing, made Lin Ze feel that things were not so simple.
A little interesting, Lin Ze nodded secretly, arched his hand to Xuan Ming behind him, and said, "Elder, such an interesting thing, how about I wait here and watch it for a while?"
Xuan Ming naturally also discovered the abnormality of the black tiger, and said with a smile: "It's all up to the sages to decide." ”
Then the two of them stood in the air, watching with great interest the battle between hunter and prey.
Sure enough, as Lin Ze expected, when the black tiger crossed a mountain stream, it accelerated violently and quickly disappeared in front of the five people.
The five of them ran over quickly, where could they still see the figure of the black tiger, looking at each other, and they couldn't help but be a little depressed.
Lin Ze smiled slightly, and was about to leave, when suddenly a shocking change occurred, and a loud roar came from the other side of the mountain, and then it stopped abruptly.
Lin Ze looked at it, a tall thin man wearing a black military uniform and no armor, holding the corpse of the black tiger in one hand, strode away, and scolded the five people: "Careless, even the prey in hand can be chased and lost, and the assessment is not passed, the portion will be halved tonight as a punishment." ”
The five black-armored men responded very aggrievedly: "Obey the orders of the chief." ”
Lin Ze couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this, if he was not mistaken, the black tiger was a third-grade peak demon beast, thin and tall in black clothes, and he was a fourth-grade martial artist.
You must know that in the forbidden army, the four grades can be mixed with a hundred generals, let alone an army other than the forbidden army, and the treatment is at least equivalent to that of a thousand commanders.
Didn't this group of people be brought by Li Si?
Lin Ze, who was suspicious, didn't speculate too much, but landed directly in front of the six people, and said menacingly: "Who are you waiting for, dare to poach in Lishan?"
The momentum of the peak of the sixth grade pressed on the six people like a mountain, and the six people were caught off guard, and they bent over on the spot, in fact, it has nothing to do with whether they are prepared or not, with Lin Ze's current martial arts cultivation, the martial artists below the sixth grade stand in front of him, and the other party who can be suppressed by momentum alone can't make a move.
The sudden suppression of momentum made the six people suffer a loss, but the six people were not convinced, and stared at Lin Ze deadly, trying to straighten up.
Seeing this, Lin Ze's face was indifferent, and the true qi in his body was running according to the method taught by Gongsun Qi, and a wisp of murderous aura that was cold to the extreme floated in the scene, and the six of them were like being in an ice cellar, and they were terrified.
Even so, no one answered him.
Lin Ze showed a look of impatience and said: "That's it, since you refuse to speak, this official will not ask, and you will poach the demon beasts of the royal mountains and forests without the permission of the Shaofu, and you should be beheaded according to the laws of Qin, and this official will give you a good time." ”
As soon as the words "this official" and "Shaofu" came out, the man in black showed a shocked look on his face, and hurriedly shouted: "This lord is slow, we are the mountain guards, not poachers." ”
"Ling Wei?" Lin Ze frowned, he seemed to have guessed wrong, but it didn't matter, he would catch it first.
The man in black hurriedly smiled and nodded: "That's right, we are all Ling Wei, this is a misunderstanding." ”
I saw Lin Ze shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it." ”
The man in black looked stunned when he heard this, and he was stunned on the spot.
The man in black was about to explain, but was interrupted by Lin Ze with a wave of his hand: "Needless to say, this official will take you to another place and interrogate you slowly." ”
After speaking, Lin Ze popped out a few energetic breaths, blocked the movements of several people, and casually pulled out a slender [31 31xs.] rattan, tied the six people in a row, and then carried the six people in one hand and the dead black tiger in the other, and returned to the camp with Xuan Ming.
Ma Luo, who was professionally in charge of logistics, saw Lin Ze's figure from afar, and hurriedly ran out to greet him: "Lord Shaofu is back." ”
Then he saw the six people who were strung together behind Lin Ze, and asked with a strange expression: "Lord Shaofu, this ......?"
Lin Ze said nonchalantly: "I found a few poachers in the back mountain, claiming to be a mausoleum guard, and the official caught it back, this demon beast is evidence of their poaching, and the official also brought it over." ”
Ma Luo's face became even more strange, and he leaned into Lin Ze's ear and said, "My lord, Lingwei has the right to hunt at will in Lishan. ”
Lin Ze frowned slightly and said: "As far as this official knows, any royal mountain forest is under the jurisdiction of Shaofu, and outsiders need to know Shaofu before hunting, what is the origin of this mausoleum guard?"
Ma Luo coughed lightly, and said in his ear: "Lord Hui, this mausoleum guard is the guard who guards the Lishan Emperor's Mausoleum, and has been assigned to the jurisdiction of Shaofu, speaking of which, these mausoleum guards are all under the adult's subordinates. ”
Rao is Lin Ze's face is extraordinary, and he can't help but feel a little embarrassed at this moment, and accidentally caught a thief, only to find out that it was his own family.
Fortunately, Lin Ze was not very human, so he quickly put this embarrassment behind him and asked, "What is the situation of this mausoleum guard, tell me in detail with this official?"
Marlowe looked at the six depressed-looking Ling Wei, swallowed his saliva and said: "This matter is a long story, the lord let them go first, enter the house and sit down, and then the lower official will tell the adult in detail?"
Lin Ze nodded, his true anger burst out, and while smashing the rattan, he untied a few people and said, "I'll leave it to you to deal with." ”
Then he stretched out his right hand and made a gesture of please, saying, "Elder Xuanming, please." ”
Ma Luo waved his hand and summoned the two guards and said, "Take a few of them down first, settle them down, and then deal with them after the official has asked the opinions of the Lord Shaofu." ”
......
In the lobby, fragrant tea, delicate snacks and fresh melons and fruits were sent up and placed in front of Lin Ze and Xuanming.
After some explanations by Marlowe, Lin Ze finally figured out the origin of this group of tomb guards.
There are more than 6,000 mausoleum guards in Lishan Mausoleum, all of whom were selected from the guards to guard the tomb of Emperor Qin.
The rules are chosen, not because they are superior or inferior, but because they happen to be the thorns in the Praetorian Guard.
Those who can be thorns in the Praetorian Guard naturally also represent their talents, which is why a fourth-grade martial artist can only be a chief in the Mausoleum Guard.
At first, the Tomb Guard was under the jurisdiction of the Praetorian Guard, and usually had its own Janissaries to arrange people to manage it, but it was amazing that the commander who had jurisdiction over the Tomb Guard had a tendency to thorn in the head after he returned.
At this time, a group of commanders of the Praetorian Guard were anxious, and they jointly wrote that the imperial tomb has always been in charge of the construction and maintenance of the Shaofu, and this mausoleum should be under the jurisdiction of the Shaofu.
In this way, Lingwei was under the jurisdiction of the Shaofu, and the entire Shaofu also had no way to take this group of thorns, and it was a headache, saying that it was jurisdiction, but in fact it was in name only.
Lin Ze fell into deep thought after hearing this, and an idea appeared in his heart, and then he shook his head: "Don't worry, wait for the six products to be completed." ”
