It was just getting bright, Meng Qi picked up the baggage and found out a lotus leaf-wrapped pastry.
It stands to reason that it should be Poria cake, but it is made like a ball.
Meng Qi took a piece and put it in his mouth.
Not soft enough, not only not sweet, but also a bit bitter because of improper ingredients.
Meng Qi didn’t frown, and didn’t dislike it at all. After eating a piece, he wrapped the lotus leaf back, and carefully tied it with a string.
——It’s a Poria cake made by Ayu himself.
Because he was worried that Meng Qi could not find a place to eat along the way, Moli made a packet of Poria cake for him.
Because it was the first time I didn’t make a pastry mold, I simply used it as a pill for rubbing. As a result, there was less sugar and more poria powder. Mo Carp tasted a black face and wanted to do it a second time. Meng Qi snatched it and carried it into his luggage. He performed his light work and went straight on the road.
He is going to Xuanchuan Pass to see what happened.
Master Yuan Zhi has no news so far, and the owner of Fengxing Pavilion Qiu Pavilion is also very worried.
How the King Tianshou captured Xuanchuan Pass is still a mystery. Knowing yourself and the enemy is a top priority. If Pilitang really develops more powerful gunpowder, it should be prepared early, so Meng Qi had to separate from Moli, and Moli went to Nanping County.
The Xuanchuan Pass is farther, and Meng Qi is reluctant to drive Moli. Besides, he is also more adept at checking clues.
On this road, the rebellious army raged, and the people fled everywhere.
Sometimes the fire can be seen at night, and it suddenly feels like returning to the era of great rebellion a few decades ago.
But there are many differences. At that time, people who were killed by bandits and rebels were saved, watching them crying with their surviving relatives, their cries were full of despair for the future, and they almost lost their struggle in this difficult world. He will not be too sad because he has confidence in the coming peace and prosperity.
What about now?
Even if the King of Heaven is successfully defeated, the people will not be hungry, and there is no need to worry about when the day of sudden death the next day will come?
The road ahead is a maze.
The gleam of light blooms from nowhere.
Whenever Meng Qi rescued a person from the army’s butcher knife and looked at the devastation and thoughts lost, the appearance of the black carp would come to his mind, and the effect was comparable to that of Ning Shen Wan. It’s like being swept into the blue sky by the wind, even if the previous efforts are all in vain, the emotions and sorrows are washed away cleanly, and they know where to go.
Occasionally, when I close my eyes, my dream is always a beautiful mountain.
Unfortunately, until today, Meng Qi has not seen Qi Maoshan with his own eyes.
——There is absolutely nothing wrong with the place that the genius doctor Qin Lu can see and live in seclusion, Meng Qi surely thought.
Half of the tuckahoe cake has been eaten, and Meng Qi estimates that the weather will be a little bit colder, and it should last a few more days without eating.
After traveling ten miles, I saw traces of rutted horseshoes in the distance.
There was a faint cry of killing in the wind.
Meng Qi quickened his pace, followed the sound, and saw a person lying on the ground next to the forest.
The horse-drawn carriages are surrounded by a circle and are firmly guarded inside. It looks like the posture is like an attack on a wealthy family when they migrate, but the master family is strong. The family Dinghuyuan who invited can dare to kill and beat the rebellious army. , Seeing to win.
The only remaining Rebellion Army stared, screamed strangely, chopped and chopped indiscriminately with their hands.
One of the younger guys, with a rare look on his face, dropped his weapon and hugged his head to escape.
In a moment, the rebellion army was almost beheaded, leaving only the one who ran desperately.
It’s a coincidence that he rushed into the woods headlessly, and immediately planted in front of Meng Qi.
“Who?”
Following the Jiadinghuyuan who came after him, when he saw someone in the forest, he suddenly became vigilant.
The dazzling sword almost greeted Meng Qi’s face directly. Obviously, the first reaction was that he was also a rebel of the rebellious army.
The man who almost hit Meng Qi’s feet, struggling to get up again, suffered an inexplicable pain in his calf, and fell again, a dog chewing on mud, his face stuck firmly to the ground, and he just threw himself Fainted.
The nurses subconsciously cut this guy’s neck with a stab.
“Slowly.”
Faced with the sword that suddenly turned to his sword, Meng Qi said slowly, “This person is afraid of death, and he will be afraid of death, indicating that he has his own brain, and those who have been bewitched by the Holy Lotus Altar and the Heavenly Giving King. Compared with the turning evil dogs, they are finally able to speak human words, so you might as well ask them where they are going, where they are going, and who is Shangguan, so that you can avoid them when you are on the road.”
Jia Ding Hu Yuan looked at each other, and then an arrogant voice asked: “What’s the matter?”
A man with the appearance of a brother-in-law came with a folding fan. The golden crown and jade pendants are all first-class, and the clothes are also the best materials. They are only as good as the three words on the face, and the eyebrows are full of arrogance. , Used to look at people with their chin lifted.
He seemed to have heard what Meng Qi had just said, and said with disdain: “The gangster, what is this young man to be afraid of? Just kill as many as you want!”
Meng Qi is not at all annoyed, he has seen a lot of brothers like this, but he is particularly surprised at this moment.
For nothing else, this is actually an acquaintance.
“It turned out to be Lord Jinfeng.”
Does Meng Qi remember that at the time this man stopped Moli and refused to let him go. He fell a few times and gave a thousand taels of silver notes. He wanted to befriend Dr. Mo and sell it again. In the end, Moli directly sold it. The famous post and the bank note were lost.
If this son Jinfeng is not good at martial arts, he is also considered powerful in the martial arts if he has money in his family. If he is surrounded by a bunch of people wherever he goes, he will be beaten to death long ago if he walks the rivers and lakes with his temper. Up.
“Do you recognize this son?” Jinfeng’s son folded his fan and looked up at Meng Qi suspiciously.
I don’t know if it’s luck or bad luck. Young Master Jinfeng met Moli and Moli in Yongzhou several times, but every time, it was a gerbil nesting in the doctor’s arms.
Only on the banks of the Qingjiang River, Young Master Jinfeng caught a glimpse of Meng Qi’s back view of “walking across the river”.
When it came to Shangyun Mountain, a group of people were making trouble for the treasure of Emperor Li’s Mausoleum. Young Master Jinfeng was stuck at the foot of the mountain by Qi Chao’s artillery, and he did not see Meng Guoshi himself.
And Meng Qi knew Doctor Mo from time to time, and he never separated from Mo Li a few times. There were only a handful of times, so he caught up with Young Master Jinfeng! Otherwise, Young Master Jinfeng would be able to guess one or two even if he was stupid, seeing Moli next to him.
At this moment, Mr. Jinfeng glanced at Meng Qi’s wet clothes and clean uppers… Except for the luggage on his back, he didn’t seem to be a night rusher at all. Recently, the autumn rains have been so heavy that even the official roads are full. It is muddy, and there is a shallow pit in the forest. Unless you can fly, how can it look like this?
You have to step on tree trunks and rocks for light work.
If it’s not a god, it’s a hell.
Young Master Jinfeng’s expression changed, he hurriedly made a haha, and said, “Where did you come from, Xiongtai? Right now, the soldiers are in chaos. I am about to return to the Western Regions with my family. I carry a lot of dry food and drinks. Like Xiongtai. Don’t give up, do I have extra to give to Xiongtai?”
The prestigious look of the former and the latter is very familiar, before giving money and now giving food.
However, according to the current situation, food is much better than money.
“No need, just meet each other.” Meng Qi left after speaking.
Young Master Jinfeng watched Meng Qi look casually, but he was a few meters away in the blink of an eye, and he didn’t see any forceful action. The whole person was walking lightly in the wind.
Seeing his mouth slowly open, his expression is horrified.
“Young Master, this person is very light and extremely high, he must be an extraordinary person, in my opinion…”
“Slap.”
Princess Jinfeng knocked the head of the family who came to talk with a fan, and asked in anger, “Did you not recognize it?”
Everyone was stunned, not understanding what Lord Jinfeng was talking about.
“It’s that person, the one we saw in Qingjiang!” Young Master Jinfeng looked like a blown up hedgehog. He wanted to roar, but he didn’t dare to make a loud noise, for fear of drawing Meng Qi back.
The people of Jinfeng Villa turned their minds one after another, showing the same shocking expressions as their young masters.
Without him, the shocking scene on the Qingjiang River that day was hard to forget.
“Why is Meng Guoshi here?”
“Wait, didn’t the Meng Guoshi who crossed the Qingjiang River say that it was an imposter?”
“Are you stupid? You have such a high level of martial arts and you still have to pretend to be someone else?”
“Who knows why he fell in love with the identity of Meng Guoshi…”
Young Master Jinfeng was so quarreled by them that his head aches, and he shouted: “Okay, Jiangnan is in such a mess. It will be troublesome to stay one day longer, why don’t you leave?”
The group hurried to the road, forgetting the dizzy godsend Wang Nizu.
After a long time, the thin man slowly woke up, held his forehead for a while, and jumped up and looked around.
“…Mr. Purple Star bless you.” He muttered a word, carefully groping out the woods.
The convoy went far, leaving only the corpses lying on the floor. These people came out of Yizhou with him and listened to the teachings of the saint and the master of the altar. Every day they thought about why they had to suffer poverty. Hungry, being bullied by the government, why… Someone like them has mud legs with ignorance, but can be born in a rich land like Jiangnan?
Trusted Mr. Ziwei Xing, they didn’t have a meal anymore, burned the houses of the landlords, dragged the necks of the officials, and hung them on the flagpoles. But the food is still getting less and less, and there are more and more brothers and sisters in the teaching, Jiangnan, what a wonderful place.
Even the blind old Liangtou in the neighboring village knows that there are cloths and silks in the south of the Yangtze River, there is no shortage of salt and food, and there are so many beauties.
This time the Tianshou King sent his troops, everyone was rushing to come, lest they would be left behind.
——Looking at the corpse all over the floor, he jerked with a sharp spirit, and shrank his arms.
He woke up, really woke up, no matter how good things are, you have to live to have them.
Why continue to work hard? Just stay in Jiangnan, is it not good to cultivate the land?
The world is so chaotic and the people are running around. Who can find out whose hometown is? The thin man looked around, wiped the blood and dirt on his face, tore off a piece of cloth, awkwardly pulled his hair into a ball, and ran away.
He thought that he had a good life in Jiangnan, bought two acres of land, and married a beautiful wife.
The house was built like the village they had robbed yesterday. The bricks and tiles also had a yard with many chickens and ducks, just like the market town they had passed by the day before yesterday. The boys and girls were all stupid, not hungry. Like a firewood stick, his face is so thin that only a pair of eyes remain…
Running, he finally saw people.
People who are carrying their things and driving donkeys, seem to be fleeing.
The thin man was full of joy, and hurriedly yelled and ran forward.
“Swish.”
A sharp arrow flew up and plunged into his chest accurately.
The thin man’s eyes were hollow, his expression suddenly savage, and he fell down obliquely.
The fleeing people panicked and the one holding the bow quickly said: “It’s okay, folks, don’t be afraid, there is only one person, not a small army of chaos.”
An old man gasped and asked: “Shichiro, what if this kills the wrong person? Didn’t the thieves we saw last time have a dishevelled?”
“His hair is tied up, like a beggar, but his right hand always seems to be holding some weapon when he runs empty-handed… Grandpa, you are too dazzled to see, let’s talk about his accent. It’s not right, it’s clearly a thief. Now it’s not a normal day. We are a big family, and there are few young men who can resist the rebellion. You have to be careful and be careful.”
“Hey.” The old man sighed and nodded in response.
They hurriedly hurried, and finally reached a river, which was already full of people.
The rebellion army of King Tianshou doesn’t know, only the local villagers know that the river ends at the Yangtze River. As long as they can find a way to cross the river to the north, the family can save their lives.
Actually, they also want to run to Yangzhou and Qiantang County, but the Rebellion Army is going faster than them, and going east is death.
There are boats moving forward in the river channel, covered by the thriving reeds, slowly sailing into the distance.
In the past few days, with the intermittent autumn rain, it has become even cooler.
The autumn wind rolled up the fluttering reeds and white flakes, passing by the disturbed people, passing by the fishing boats, and flying all the way to the river bank and onto the vast and mighty river surface.
Five tall buildings lined up, piercing through the clouds and breaking the fog, appearing on the river like giant beasts.
The people who were trying to find a way were frightened by the people who gathered on the shore. They wrapped their soft family members and turned their heads and fled. Some said it was the navy of the rebels, and some said that Qi Chao had fought over. This guess was confirmed within a quarter of an hour. Now, the flag of the ship on that building is really hung with the word “Qi”.
Gong Jun stood on the bow, the black cloak rolled in the wind.
“Commander, there is a semaphore next to him, General Liu has ordered a direct landing.”
Gong Jun stretched out his hand, and the person next to him immediately handed him a telescope.
This is much more beautiful than the one in Zheng Tu’s hand. The carved copper tube is also inlaid with gems, and there is a small mechanism at the front to change the lens to see things at different distances.
“Why are there so many people on the river bank…well, they are all people?”
Gong Jun frowned and saw the people running in a panic. At this moment, a Jinyiwei Qianhu came over and sighed:
“The army of Tianshou Wangsanlu has advanced to the heart of Jingzhou. There are only scattered chaotic troops here. Jingzhou officials either escaped or stayed on the city, which will not pose too much threat to us for the time being.”
“Xu Qianhu, don’t be careless, this time to go south is to clear up the great troubles for the court, we have to go to Xuanchuan Pass to find out the truth.” Gong Jun said, suddenly put down the telescope with a weird expression, and asked inexplicably. “Why is Tianshou Wang moving so fast?”
The king of Jing should not be so useless, and Jingzhou is not paper-cut, especially the king of the Heavenly Grant has no good soldiers, basically all farmers who threw a hoe.
Gong Jun hastened to hurry these days, fearing that there would be any mistakes, so he focused on picking up the manpower, and the situation in Jingzhou was justified. After all, fighting was not his business. Once he passed Jiang, he would go to Xuanchuan. closed. Why hasn’t there been any news for three days, and the defeated Jingzhou Army is even more embarrassed, as if it is about to be torn to pieces by the Heavenly Granting King?
“The subordinates don’t know, the one hundred thousand army of Tianshou Wang entered Jingzhou, like a group of locusts…”
Xu Qianhu said with an ugly face, “The commander may not have seen that scene. The black pressure is overwhelming, not just the grain in the ground, even the closed granary made of wood covered with thatch can be lifted. They looked like inconspicuous bugs, they couldn’t move anything, but they gathered together with ghostly power, they even gnawed dead grass. Then, after the locusts in the poorer villages, the thatched houses collapsed. Within a day It can sweep the entire state capital, and the big ones will not be separated, and the small ones will slip to nearby counties, which is exactly the same as the situation in Jiangnan now.”
Gong Jun keenly captured a key point: “You mean that the army of the Heavenly Granted King is now less than 100,000?”
This kind of rabble is inherently difficult to control, and the Tianshou King has used such a rushing posture, even if he suppresses the soldiers forcibly, it will inevitably become less and less, let alone the Tianshou King is uncontrollable. If this continues, even if Nanping County can be taken down, isn’t it afraid that the Jingzhou Army will turn around and attack?
We must know that the Jingzhou Army has only lost 150,000 at present, and it is now devastated. It is more because King Jing and others have messed up their hands and feet, the local officials have not received orders, and they are unwilling to face the army of the Heavenly Grant King. Stay in the city and won’t come out.
Countless people died and wounded outside the city, just outside the city, the Jingzhou army might gather again at any time, how will the Tianshou King end up?
“…Maybe from a reckless background, I didn’t expect so many.”
Xu Qianhu really didn’t think that the Tianshou King had any tricks.
This kind of rebel just wants to be happy, like a locust, just fill his stomach, what else can he have?
“No, take the map.” Gong Jun pressed his anxiety in his heart, rubbing his eyebrows and instructed.
The five boats gradually approached the river bank, and the huge shadows looked particularly hideous in the mist of the river.
The people of the rivers and lakes on the shore have changed their faces. They can’t figure out what Qi Chaoren is doing. Is it because of the fire?
“Quickly, report it to the patron.”
First, the flying pigeons are released, and then the letter is received and transferred to the next temporary gathering place of Fengxing Pavilion. The pigeons can only recognize the usual flying way, but can not fly the full distance, and can know whether the letter has been delivered as soon as possible in a short round trip. Will not delay the news.
So one stop after another, one hand to another, three hours after Qi Jun’s landing, a quick horse galloped the news to Qiu Jing in the evening.
“Qi Jun disembarked in Jingxi this morning?”
Qiu Jing feels that she is one of the first two big people. She is still trying to persuade the Jingzhou Junqin King who is not out of the city through the various networks in her hands. It does not matter if the Tianshou King surrounds Nanping County, as long as the Jingzhou Army is outside. Form a larger encirclement, the king of Tianshou is the turtle in the urn.
But I don’t understand the results. Jingzhou fears the chaotic army like evil spirits. According to the rumors, the army of the Tianshou King is not human at all, so how can it be beaten?
Qiu Jing was so angry that he could not stop cursing, but those who held soldiers and horses in their hands, ranging from generals to county lieutenants, refused to stand up and be the first bird, insisting to wait and see. In other words, they didn’t really care about King Jing’s life and death. Now that there is food and soldiers in the city, it’s a fool to go head-to-head?
“After Nanping is Jiangxia and Jingzhou Granary, it is extremely convenient to go north and south. This is the goal of the Tianshou King.”
Qiu Jing remembers what Meng Qi said before he left.
“The Tianshou King wanted to break through Nanping, just to kill King Jing, so that the upper class of Jingzhou would fall into internal fighting again and buy time for him. If I guess right, he will deliberately let go of some of the powerful and powerful in Nanping County. Royal family.
“The King Tianshou has only one chance. Most of his soldiers are unreliable. Jiang Nan will only be careless to him once. Ning Di and King Wu are not that stupid. So the most anxious person is him, and he can only stand firm in Jiangxia. With the heel, he has the possibility of further expansion.
“Then it depends on whether the Qi Dynasty is slack or rather unstable. There is an 80% chance that he will continue to promote to Yangzhou. The connivance of killing is feeding the soldiers. Those rebellious troops will only be brave and not afraid of death at the beginning. , Because they believe in the nonsense of the holy lotus altar, and because they have nothing. When they have enough to kill enough, they will be afraid of death… So the Tianshou King will take the opportunity to gather the soldiers and horses of Jingzhou and Yangzhou and take them into his own use.
“This is very difficult, so the Tianshou King must first shock everyone, create the illusion of unstoppable destiny, and wait for those who think they are smart to vote. By then it will be too late.
“You must let the Heavenly Grant King be blocked, and let the whole Jiangnan know that the Heavenly Grant King is not a big deal. It has neither the power of ghosts nor magical calculations… Assassination, fire and interception will do anything, Jiang Xia must not lose it.”
After recalling the memory, Qiu Jing opened his eyes suddenly, and said resolutely: “Go to Jiangxia! Let me tell you that if there are old people and children in the family who want to raise, don’t go. The city is here and we are all here, and the city is dead and I am dead.”
