Mo Wen had already suspected that this person's outfit did not seem to be a princess with a prominent status, but this huge figure made him recognize that this person was Murong Hongxiang, but now when he heard Puxiong's words, he immediately understood that Shi Zhen had lied and maliciously slandered Murong Hongxiang of Yan Kingdom.
"Who are you?"
Mo asked, unraveling the sturdy woman's dumb.
"If my aunt and grandmother don't change their surname, Yan Feiyu is me."
The fat woman's eyes widened.
Mo Wen looked at Pu Xiong and the other generals, who all shook their heads, indicating that they did not know or have heard of this woman.
Mo Wen had carried this fat woman for more than 300 miles before, and he had already held back his resentment, but this time he saw that her words were speechless, and he waved at the captain in front of him, "Take her down to interrogate the enemy, and if she doesn't say anything, she will be punished." ” The lieutenant heard the order, and two people came up and dragged the woman, but they didn't move, and two more came, and then the sturdy woman was dragged down.
"Who of you has seen Murong Hongjiao himself," Mo asked, looking around at the generals.
"Back to the real person, the last general has seen her from afar, Murong Hong's makeup is not much different from the height of the last general, goose egg face, although the complexion is not very white, but the facial features are very beautiful, wearing a red cloak woven by bird feathers."
Hajik spoke.
Mo Wen nodded when he heard this, turned around and walked outside the camp, "You guys were tired last night, go back to your room to rest." ” Everyone was stunned, and they returned to the camp, Pu Xiong quickly followed Mo Wen and asked with a smile, "Is Princess Yu misleading the real person?"
"If it weren't for her, how could I have captured this fat woman?"
Mo Wen let out a sigh of relief, this time he caught the wrong person, the enemy army must have taken precautions, if he goes again, he will be greeted by a rain of arrows.
"The last general thought of a plan, there are a lot of cattle and sheep in this city, and these cattle and sheep can be poisoned to death with severe poison and thrown into the Fanshui swamp, as long as the leeches eat their flesh and blood, they will be poisoned."
Pu Xiong changed the subject with interest.
"If the poison enters the living object, the liver, spleen and stomach will try their best to detoxify, and if it cannot be completely dissolved, it will lead to death, and the toxicity in the body has been weakened when it is killed, and the more the poison spreads and is transmitted, the weaker the toxicity."
Mo Wen shook his head and said.
Pu Xiong nodded again and again when he heard this, but in fact he didn't think it was a clever plan, and he was not willing to slaughter so many cattle and sheep, and the live cattle and sheep could follow the army and be the best military food.
"You haven't slept all night, go and rest for a while, and I'll go to Fanshui again."
Out of the camp gate, Mo asked Chong Puxiong and said.
"Don't go again, the enemy must be on guard."
Pu Xiong spoke out to dissuade him.
"The captives can't be caught again, I didn't look at those leeches carefully last night, and I'll take a closer look at them this time."
Don't ask for an explanation.
Out of the city, and then back to the shore of Fanshui, at this time the sun has been westerly, the temperature is higher in the daytime, leeches gather in the shallow water on the shore at this time, these leeches are black and yellow, the size is different, the big one has a small grinding size, the small one is like a sea bowl, dense, and countless.
Alarmed, the leeches in the vicinity raised their heads, and once they stretched, their lengths multiplied, the large ones could be stretched by nearly three feet, and the small ones could also raise their heads by one foot, they had no eyes, and their heads only had a huge round jaw, and there were ring-shaped sharp teeth in their mouths, like canine teeth.
Leeches resemble snakes with their heads raised, but they do not move by their tails like venomous snakes, and must crawl down and bend forward to move, but when they reach the water's edge, they stop and do not leave the water.
After observing from the shore for a while, Mo Wen took out his aura and grabbed a large leech, after leaving the water, the leeches began to twist and turn, they can only breathe in the water, and they will suffocate when they reach the shore, cut off their heads and tails with a black knife, and cut their abdomen horizontally, only to see that the leech's belly is a lot of smaller leeches, seeing this situation, Mo Wen frowned suddenly, leeches do not eat the same kind, how can the leeches here kill each other In doubt, I grabbed another one, this one was smaller, and there was a snail shell in its belly.
After finding out what the leech fed on, Mo Wen turned around and was about to leave, when he suddenly found that the leech had turned into black water, and there was not even any skin left.
Leeches will shrink and shrink if exposed to the sun, but they should not turn into black water, and this leech is completely melting, what is the reason for this?
Puzzled, Mo Wen waited for a moment again, but found that the smaller leech had not melted, and after a closer look, he quickly found a clue, the first leech was located where the setting sun could shine, while the second leech was under the shade of a tuft of weeds, not illuminated by the sun.
At this time, the sun had set, and Mo Wen couldn't try again, so he caught two leeches and returned to Pingzhou.
Back in Pingzhou City, the two leeches were already dying, and they quickly regained their vitality when they were thrown into the water, winding and twisting from the water tank.
"General Long Xiang, please come over."
Mo Wen rushed to the flower girl who came to deliver the tea, and the latter turned around and walked towards the door when he heard the words, but before he reached the door, Pu Xiong happened to arrive.
"Real person, there is news from Yecheng."
Pu Xiong walked over to Mo Wen and looked down at the water tank, startled by the two huge leeches inside.
"Yecheng" Mo Wen looked at Pu Xiong suspiciously, the Zhao Imperial Court rarely had direct contact with him, and most of the news was conveyed through Heijun.
"What was sent by Hai Dongqing was an official document and a letterhead."
Pu Xiong handed Mo Wen the two unopened envelopes in his hand, and continued to look at the leeches in the water tank.
Mo Wen took the two letters, and took the lead in opening the official letter, which was a reward and encouragement from the Taiwei Mansion, Mo Wen swept it over, and the back of the letterhead said that a distant cousin of his went to Yecheng to ask him for help, and the Taiwei Mansion gave him a proper reception, gave him five hundred taels of silver to help him make a living, and passed the book here on his behalf.
Mo Wen was very puzzled when he read the official document, and turned to look at another letterhead, after opening it, he saw that it was written a family letter, calling him Hanfeng Virtuous Brother, just looking at the title Mo Wen was stunned for a long time, his font size is rarely known, this person knows that his font size should not be an outsider, but he really can't remember that he has such a cousin.
Looking at the content of the letter, the other party claimed to be Chen Zhouzhi, the eldest son of his mother's third brother, and when he saw the name Mo Wen, he immediately knew that this letter was sent north by Zhang Dongzhi by Zhou Guiren, and the reason why he chose the surname Chen was because Mrs.
Mo's family surname was Chen, which may have been found by Zhou Guiren and others from the Jin nationality.
The content of the letter is mostly flattering, in addition to a lot of gratitude to the hospitality of the Taiwei Mansion, the end of the letter is to say that he can drive away the Yan army as soon as possible to recover the country, and return to his hometown as soon as possible.

After reading the letter, Mo Wen put it in his sleeve, this letter did not have any concealment, and he didn't ask that there might be people around Zhang Dongzhi when he wrote the letter, so that he didn't dare to hint at it, but since he went north to look for it, it showed that Zhou Guiren had something to ask him to return to the Jin Kingdom.
What he was thinking about at this time was what Zhou Guiren asked him to go back to, and one thing was for sure that this matter was very important, otherwise Zhang Dongzhi would not have ventured north to send a message.
But although this matter is urgent, it is not urgent, and this can be seen in the word "sooner" in self-confidence.
"Real person, how did this leech have such fangs and sharp teeth" Pu Xiong waved his hand and didn't take the tea sent by Hua Gu, "You go down first." ” "That's why I brought them back."
Mo Wen retracted his thoughts and said, although ordinary leeches also have teeth, they are not as many as those leeches in the Fanshui swamp, those leeches originally lived in the Fanshui swamp, but later changed, this change is bound to be related to the shamans of the Yan Kingdom, in other words, it should be some kind of witchcraft and medicine that causes them to grow in size and grow teeth, and the top priority is to find the reason for their abnormalities.
"Bring me some salt water."
Mo Wen commanded Pu Xiong, Pu Xiong heard the words and immediately ordered the soldiers outside the door to go and take it, after a while, the salt water came, Mo Wen grabbed a leech in the air with his aura and put it into the salt water, the leech entered the salt water and gradually became slow, and after a while, he curled up and did not move.
"Is this well salt or sea salt," Mo asked Chong Puxiong.
"The government should use clean well salt."
Pu Xiong replied that at this time, the salt eaten by the common people and the rich and noble families was different, and the common people mostly ate sea salt dried by sea water on the southeast coast, while the officials usually ate well salt, which was boiled by extracting brine from wells, and the officials believed that this kind of salt was cleaner than the coarse-grained sea salt exposed to the open air.
"Fetch sea salt."
Mo asked.
"Go to the barracks and get it."
Pu Xiong commanded at the guards.
When the guards ran away, Mo Wen put the leech in the salt water back into the water tank, and when he got fresh water, the leech immediately revived and began to bend and stretch.
After half a pillar of incense, the sea salt was taken and re-melted into the fresh water, Mo Wen took a leech and put it into it again, this time the leech's reaction was extremely violent, its body twisted violently, and it hissed in its mouth, trying to crawl out of the basin, but it only climbed half and then retracted, because the lower half of its body had festered into black water.
"How can this be," Pu Xiong looked at the black water in the basin and was stunned.
"The yang energy contained in sea salt is much heavier than the well salt under the ground, and this thing is afraid of yang energy, they dare not completely leave the water, otherwise they will not be able to withstand the sun."
Mo Wen explained that both sea salt and well salt contain yang energy, but sea salt contains heavier yang energy, so most fish in the sea are hair products, which will aggravate yang disease.
In addition, eating too much salt can cause excessive yang energy in the body, which can lead to a short temper.
After Mo asked, Pu Xiong did not answer immediately, the production of sea salt is only in the coastal area, but at this time, the south is the boundary of the Jin State, and the northern coastal area is either too far away from here, or it is in the Baijun area occupied by the Yan State, whether it is to transport salt water or obtain sea salt, it is very difficult.
"Is there glutinous rice here?"
asked Mo Wen casually.
"There are no precious things here, but there are some in the army, which are specially used for real people to make porridge."
Pu Xiong replied, and after speaking, he didn't wait for Mo to ask, and went out again to order the guards to run errands.
Take the glutinous rice, twist it on the back of the leech, where the glutinous rice falls, and immediately rise white smoke.
Mo Wen nodded slowly when he saw this, he finally found the reason for the mutation of these leeches, they were poisoned by corpses:
