Chapter Ninety-Three: The Inn
After killing a Liang team, we got one thing, something that seemed to be very ordinaryβa spear with a swarthy body all over. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
However, on this seemingly ordinary spear, there is a secret that makes my heart surge.
Knowing the secret of the spear, I raised my hand at the sergeant's request and killed him.
According to him, if he doesn't die, he will definitely implicate his family, and even if I don't kill him, he himself will kill himself immediately.
Other than that, he didn't say anything more, and I knew that the cross-examination would not provide any useful information, so I simply raised my hand and beat him to death, as he wished.
Dying at my hands is less painful than his own suicide, which is also a little respect for him to sacrifice himself and save his family.
After some tidying up, we continued on the road, aiming at the capital of the Liang Kingdom, Daliang, but passing by a sound city on the way.
"Brother Miao, do you know anything about Liang Guoguo?"
On the way, in order to avoid suspicion, I spoke to her by the name of a man, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
She nodded back to me for a while, and said, "I have come to Liang Country with my master before, and I also have a certain understanding of this side, and there is also the eyeliner set by our Poison Sect in Daliang City!"
"Oh!"
At the same time, I was amazed in my heart, but I couldn't help but be happy, in the eyes of the Liang Sect in the Liang Dynasty, the capital of the Liang King, this will be of great help to our actions.
Nodding affirmatively, she continued: "Don't look at our Poison Sect as an existence that is not very well received by the Jianghu Sect, but when it develops secretly, there are not a few things that are planted!"
"This is all Master's decision in the early years, he said, Daqin's rule may not last long, and if you want to play the big game of chess, you have to see who sees early and far, and it takes decades to fall a move that is enough to change the pattern, then all the wait is worth it!"
After hearing this, my eyes changed greatly when I looked at the already crazy poisonous bones, and I really felt a little impulse to admire him.
This old-timer's vision is really not ordinary, as early as more than twenty years ago, that is, when Emperor Daqin Yu was still in his prime, he had already guessed that something might happen to Great Qin in the future.
As a result, it took decades to bury some deep-rooted shadows in Great Qin and the Seven Great Feudal Kingdoms, and keep them for use in the future.
"I'll talk about these secrets later, you can tell me about the current situation in Liang Kingdom first!"
"Good!"
After nodding, she began to tell me some things about the current Liang Kingdom, and the poisonous bones and Bajie listened to them without stubble, and they probably didn't understand much.
"Regardless of the previous history of the Liang Kingdom, the current reigning King of Liang is called Liang Mo, and he has two sons, the eldest prince, the first heir of King Liang, Liang Qianxun, the second prince, the second heir of King Liang, Liang Dao!"
"Liang Mo, the king of Liang, is an old-fashioned old man, suspicious by nature, he is already in the age of sixties, and he still refuses to hand over the position of King Liang, and he also controls more than half of the soldiers and horses of the Liang country!"
"The Liang State has no less than 500,000 troops, the two princes have less than 50,000 troops in their hands, more than half of them are in the hands of the King of Liang, and the remaining nearly 200,000 are in the hands of the four major soldiers of the Liang State. β
"According to our investigation, these four major military commanders, Zuo Yan, Xiao Yao, Gu Xi, and Fang Ding, are actually all cronies of King Liang, and it is unknown whether there is an intersection of interests with the two princes!"
After a pause in her words, she gathered her thoughts a little and continued her narrative.
"King Liang was afraid of being assassinated, so he was relatively estranged from his two sons, and the relationship between the two princes was very poor, and friction would break out from time to time. β
"Because they don't have much military power in their hands, they can't make any big trouble, and King Liang also turns a blind eye and lets them make trouble by themselves. β
Speaking of which, the general situation about Liang Guo was finished, and she looked at me and stopped talking.
I thought about it for a moment, and asked her a question that I was more concerned about.
"How about the deployment of the Liang State's military strength, and what about the garrison of the two princes and the four major military commanders?"
This question is not too confidential, she thought for a while and said: "I remember, about a year ago, the three cities in the northwest of the Liang Kingdom, Daliang, Yincheng, and Jicheng, were all controlled by the forbidden army of King Liang. β
"The four great commanders were more trusted by the King of Liang than the two princes, Zuo Yan was stationed in the northeast corner of Daliang, Yinlong City, Xiao Yao was stationed in the southeast of Daliang, Qingfeng City, Gu Xi, southwest, Xiaocheng, Fangding, east, Chengtang City, Liang Qianxun, the eldest prince Liang Qianxun, southwest of Jicheng, Qiuyue City, and the second prince Liang Dao, northwest of Yincheng, Mingyi City. β
During the lecture, she also got off her horse and sketched the outline of the Liang Kingdom and the main garrison cities on the ground.
I'm not very interested in language, but I'm full of curiosity about the pictures on the ground, and the two of them came over with an interesting look on their faces, watching Miao Chengtian draw a map on the sand.
Seeing them shaking their heads as if they understood something, I couldn't help but laugh.
Without paying too much attention to the two guys, I took a closer look at the map and found that everything was as Miao Chengtian said.
This kind of deployment method is basically to exclude the two princes, and use the four major military commanders and the cities on the side as a barrier to the royal capital, so as to prevent the rebellion from directly forcing the royal capital.
This Liang Wang, Liang Mo, how worried about his two sons is!
Liang Qianxun and Liang Dao are not biological, I feel that Fang'er is like a thief, in my memory, this kind of thing is really not rare......
Shaking his head with a wry smile, banishing this strange idea from his mind for the time being, I probably understand the specific situation of Liang Guo.
As for what to do next, I have to go and see Liang Qianxun, I must first know King Liang's attitude towards Daqin, otherwise it will be difficult to decide what to do next.
Just like the predecessor of the poisonous bone said, the world is a big game of chess, and I am now holding a chess game for revitalizing Daqin, and playing with the seven feudal countries.
On the chess road, if you are not careful, the game is full of ink, you must look forward and backward, be careful, be careful, and be careful!
......
After getting on the horse, we continued to the sound city, because it was getting late, and we were going to rest here for the night.
At the inn, because there was only one room left, we had a friction with an arrogant man.
"This room is Lao Tzu!"
The arrogant man who came in after yelled at the shopkeeper like this, unscrupulous, and didn't take us seriously at all.
Looking at this person, I also sneered, and said lightly: "You have to pay attention to the first come, first come, right?"
"Hmph, Lao Tzu really doesn't know the saying that he came first and came first in Yincheng, what is not Lao Tzu going up first!"
I hate this kind of guy with nostrils facing the sky and no one in his eyes, I whispered to Bajie.
"Bajie, this guy wants to fight for a room with our master and apprentice, what do you say?"
When I asked, a cold smile suddenly appeared on his face, and his tongue licked his lips, looking like a bloodthirsty demon.
"Master, how many legs do you want to break him?"
"Uh......"
Seeing him say it so bluntly, I was speechless for a while, how did this guy become so ruthless and break someone's leg at every turn.
"You can teach him a lesson, let him know how powerful our master and apprentice are, don't be too heavy, it will be troublesome if you kill someone!"
"Yes, Master!"
After nodding, Bajie stepped out in one step and blocked in front of this person, speaking coldly.
"Get out, my master won't let me take your life, you get out yourself, don't let me do it. β
"Hehe......"
I didn't care about Bajie's words, the man sneered, raised his hand and pulled out a short sword on his waist, and gestured at us a few times.
"It's you people who make trouble first, Lao Tzu is forced to pull out his sword because he is helpless, and he will die later, and the city guards can't blame Lao Tzu!"
He took out a knife and threatened, but unfortunately it didn't threaten us, but scared the shopkeeper to death.
I saw the shopkeeper slowly come to our side and whispered: "A few masters, that one is also a celebrity here in us, known as the rolling worm! β
Xiao Er's movements were seen by that guy, and he was naturally proud in his heart, and the wild smile on his face turned into a cruel smile, showing his teeth and claws.
Xiao Er said this kind of thing because he was worried about us, afraid that we would suffer, there was nothing to say, but this smug guy really didn't clean up, and who said that we would suffer.
Before I could let Bajie make a move, the poisonous bone on the side couldn't stand it anymore and rushed out.
The arrogant guy is actually not even a person in the rivers and lakes, a layman, his fists and feet are very sparse, and his response is extremely sluggish.
Faced with the sudden attack of the poisonous bones, he stupidly stabbed the short sword in his hand, and thought about stabbing the poisonous bones to death.
In the face of such an attack, the Poison Bone Elder didn't even need to dodge, and met it with his palm.
Seeing this scene, the man's face was first startled, and then turned into a cold smile, full of the taste of success.
"Haha...... You brought it on yourself, don't blame me!"
Poison Bone didn't react to his words, the expression on his face was frozen in the blandest, and his palms slapped without pause.
Then, the man's short sword was firmly grasped in the hand of the poisonous bone senior, and no matter how hard the man tried, he couldn't pull it back.
It may be that he found that the short sword in his hand could not cut the poisonous and bone-eroding hand, and the man suddenly panicked, and shouted in a sharp voice: "You let me go!"
It's not enough to scream, seeing that the pulling force is useless, he also raised his foot and kicked the lower body of the poisonous bone, which is really unscrupulous.
Even if it was a sneak attack, I wouldn't worry that the poisonous bones would stumble here, after all, the gap between the two of them is too big!
There was no suspense about how things would turn out next, or there was no suspense from the beginning.
kicked it back, and with a click, the man's calf bone was kicked off, and the white bones pierced the skin to be exposed, as well as the dripping flesh, which was quite bloody.
The man's facial expression changed drastically, and it was very hateful, but before he could scream, he saw the arm of the poisonous bone, which was as dexterous as a snake, slid down the man's hand holding the short sword.
There was another click, and the elbow joint of that arm was removed, and the arm hung limply down, flicking and flicking.
Because of the severe pain, the man's eyes widened, which were full of blood red, and the eyeballs protruded violently, as if they would fall off in the next moment.
Probably not wanting to hear the man's screams like a pig, the other hand that snatched the short sword fell on the man's chin and pushed it up hard.
With a pop, you can guess from the lips that are spilling blood that there is absolutely not much left of the man's teeth.
Worried that the poisonous bone would kill this person by mistake, I could only say one word and remind: "Wukong, don't kill people!"
Fortunately, my eye was sick, and he had already lifted up, and the hand that was about to touch the man's throat was slightly loosened and landed on the man's chest.
"Master doesn't let my grandson kill people, then my grandson will spare you a cheap life, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped, get out!"
Feeling that only a trace of palm power erupted from his palm, the man was like a kicked ball, and suddenly flew outside, slamming into a wall opposite the inn, and there was no movement.
Although the poisonous bone has left a lot of hands, I still sweat the man's body in my heart.
"Hey...... Master, I didn't kill him as you ordered, so that's pretty much it!"
After turning around, the murderous aura on his face disappeared completely, and his face was full of innocent smiles, and he said this to me.
In the face of this, I really don't know how to answer, in my opinion, that man is not dead or disabled, it is better to die!
He was speechless for a while, and he didn't ask any more questions, but turned to Xiao Er's side and asked, "Little Second Brother, can we have four masters and apprentices in the room now?"
I know that when I was asked, the little second brother's heart was broken, and this guy who poisoned the bones was indeed too scary.
With a wry smile, Xiao Er didn't answer the question, but said to me: "This guest officer, you better take your apprentice and leave quickly, that person can't be beaten, you have made a big disaster!"
I'm also curious, what is the background of that scoundrel, and how can Xiao Er be jealous of him to such a degree, I asked.
"Little second brother, what is that guy's background, how dare he be so domineering and unscrupulous in Yincheng?"
As if talking about sadness, Xiao Er sighed and said slowly: "Guest officer, that rolling worm is really not easy to provoke, his brother-in-law is the second guard chief of the Sound City Guard." β
"In Yincheng, the city guards have the power to control the life and death of civilians, who would dare to provoke ordinary people like us! Being bullied by these guys, it is better to endure than to lose your life!"
No longer entangled, I changed my words and asked, "If we leave, how will you explain to this second guard commander?"
"How else can I explain, aren't they just trying to make money, just pay them some money, my father-in-law is the owner of this inn, and it's not once or twice that this kind of thing happened!"
What Xiao Er said was quite light, but I know that this time it is definitely not a matter that can be settled by losing some money.
Because the poisonous bone is a bit too much, although he has already kept his hand, but the rolling ground worm may have to spend the second half of his life on the bed.
I thought I wouldn't get into trouble, but I didn't expect something to happen, and it also provoked the city guards, and I was really helpless.
However, I don't blame the poison for the bones.
How can I say that I am also a Tang monk master now, Wukong stabbed the basket, and I, who is a master, will wipe my ass for him and solve the troubles.
Then again, that guy is also to blame, if he hadn't come to death with a straight face, we wouldn't have hurt him.
Moreover, the guards of the Liang State are not a good thing, and by virtue of their power, they have not been less oppressed by the good and reaped the benefits.
I've never been a person who is afraid of things, and it's impossible for them to poison their bones, but now that they have encountered it, there is no such thing as throwing it away, or taking care of it!
"Little Second Brother, we appreciate your kindness, you better give us the key to the room! We will stay here tonight, see what those city guards can do with us!"
I hated that iron could not become steel, and Xiao Er also patted the table and continued to persuade me.
"Alas, guest officer, why don't you listen to people's advice, even if you all have kung fu in your hands, the city guards are not good at stubble, and you can't make trouble with them!"
"Little second brother, needless to say, let's open the room!"
......
