Net permanent URL, please keep in mind When the sky was bright the next day, the carriages and horses had been cleaned up in front of the Kaifeng Mansion, and the team of the gong was in the front, but it was afraid that it would affect the rest of the people of Kaifeng, so the gong was put away first.
The latest free chapters of the book can be found here.
Behind the fair and honest plaque is Ouyang Shaozheng and a small cavalry team, and behind them is Zhanzhao Bai Yutang and their group of warriors on horseback, among them is Bao Da Da Pang Taishi, and the chariot and horse team of other people.
Behind them are the five hundred officials of Kaifeng Mansion, as well as the three terrifying guillotines of Lord Bao.
Behind them were luggage carts and accompanying servants, mostly people from Baifu and Trap Island.
Finally, there were 1,000 infantry of the Zhao family army led by Zou Liang.
In addition, the Shadow Guards brought a hundred newly trained Shadow Centaurs with them, and the Shadows were hidden around.
These hundred shadow centaurs were trained when Zhao Pu was idle in Kaifeng Mansion.
The first condition for being a shadow guard is to be good at light work and clever people.
It's easy to find clever people from Zhao Jiajun, but if it's good to work lightly, you need to be trained.
Zhao Pu discussed with Yin Hou, anyway, Yin Hou was very idle, went to his barracks for a turn, picked a hundred people with good talent for light martial arts, and taught a few tricks casually, and this group of soldiers "flew".
Zhao Pu asked Tianzun about the technique of "shadow escape", that is, to teach the shadow guards how to hide so that no one would find out, so Tianzun casually taught a few words of mantra to control the breath, so the shadow team was reborn after two months of training.
Zhao Pu assigned these 100 people to various shadow guards and gave them assistants, which was very convenient.
The people who went out on patrol were not in a hurry, after all, the people outside Kaifeng rarely had the opportunity to see Bao Qingtian, so they all took the opportunity to come out to visit.
Mr.
Bao went to inspect the yamen of each prefecture and county, and the local people also took a few looks, and just like that, everyone walked on the road for nearly a month.
On this day, everyone walked on the official road leading to Chengxian.
The next stop in Chengxian County is Yingtianfu, because Xu County and Hongyingzhai are both south of Yingtianfu, and it is still early at this time, everyone is considering, otherwise don't stay in Chengxian, go directly to Yingtianfu, maybe you can arrive before dark.
In the carriage.
Master Bao hugged his arms and sighed.
Opposite him, in the past two days, the Taishi, who was a little unaccustomed to the water and soil, vomited and diarrhea, was eating the soju bayberry specially made for him by Gongsun Xian.
Not to mention, this bayberry is soaked in soju to cure diarrhea, which is really effective Taishi was eating very beautifully, listening to Lord Bao's sigh, he raised his head, "I said Heizi, you sighed all the way this way, why are you doing it, isn't the Qinhuai area very good?
” "It's just too good, it's strange," Master Bao hugged his arm, "I know that Qinhuai is rich, but wealth doesn't mean that there are no unjust cases, you said that I used to encounter sedan chairs when I traveled in Kaifeng Mansion to sue for injustices, why didn't anyone stop me when I went out on patrol with such fanfare?"
Taishi was speechless, and Lord Bao was originally entangled in the people who didn't shout injustice.
"You say, will the local government know that I am coming, so they sent people to rob those people who have grievances" Bao Daren's face was flat.
Taishi was weak, "You also know how many shadow guards the prince has brought, there are shadow guards in all directions, and someone dares to rob those who stop the sedan chair and don't want to live."
Master Bao touched his beard, "Is there really no unjust case?"
Taishi smiled, "Who doesn't know that you are very powerful, those magistrates have already investigated the case clearly, and when you come, don't you see those officials along the way who treat you as a plague god." ” Mr.
Bao glanced at him, opened the sedan curtain and looked out.
On the side of the carriage, it was Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, the two of them were riding horses and swaying, chatting about something as they walked.
Master Bao asked, "Zhan Guard, how far are we to Chengxian?"
"My lord, it's about half an hour to walk."
Zhan Zhao replied.
Ahead, Ouyang Shaozheng ran over and asked, "Bao Xiang, if we stop in Chengxian, I'll take someone to explore first, and we'll go directly if we don't stop." ” Master Bao thought about it and nodded, "Let's stop, we stopped everywhere before, and it's not bad for this one, it's a big deal to get to Yingtianfu later." ” Ouyang nodded, took a dozen elite soldiers, and a group of shadow guards, left the team together, and rushed to Chengxian.
As soon as Ouyang left, in the big black carriage behind the carriage, I saw that the curtain of the car was lifted, and Zhao Pu walked out with Xiao Liang and Xiao Sizi, two children, stretched a big lazy waist, and then yawned, one big and two small movements were the same, as if they had just woken up from sleep.
Everyone looked at the time close to noon and were a little puzzled.
Gongsun Ce, who was riding a little donkey in front of the carriage, looked at the two helplessly, and said to Zhanzhao, who was curious to inquire, "The three of them played guessing all night last night, and they slept at dawn." ” The corners of everyone's mouths twitched, Zhao Pu was boring enough, he could play with Xiao Sizi and Xiao Liangzi all night.
"Guess the piece" Bai Yutang was curious, didn't he want to play while drinking "That guy actually taught the little fourth son to make a wine order, what kind of bright and dark seven tigers, sticks, chickens, and insects, but he used sweet wine to make instead of wine."
Gongsun was helpless, "He said that if he teaches the province early, he will suffer in the future." ” Everyone couldn't laugh or cry, and Zhao Pu, the marshal, was also quite serious.
Zhao Pu was stretching his waist, and felt that someone dragged the hem of his clothes, and he stumbled and almost fell off the carriage.
The corners of Zhao Pu's mouth twitched, and the black owl was glaring at him, which meant that Zhao Pu's family was riding horses, and you actually took a car, your grandfather, I haven't run for a long time, and my stomach has grown fat Zhao Pu stretched out his hand and patted the black owl for comfort, "Okay, okay, run for a while." ” The black owl immediately snorted and shook his mane, which meant quickly Zhao Pu turned over and got on his horse, and before he could shake the reins, the black owl had already rushed out.
At the same time as the black owl rushed out, everyone heard a tiger roar in the carriage behind Xiao Sizi, and Xiao Wu jumped out and ran out.
Zhan Zhao shouted from behind, "Xiao Wu, don't scare people" Xiao Wu shouted as if he was responding, and at the same time he had already followed the black owl to the front of the line.
This section of the official road is very straight and long, and there are no pedestrians, and a horse and a tiger are running forward, just when they run to the point where they can almost see the black shadow, suddenly, everyone heard the black owl hiss, Xiao Wu also screamed, and also heard a "bang" sound, as if something fell into the puddle.
Everyone was shocked.

Master Bao looked out, "Didn't you hit something?"
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang jumped off the horse, and chased them out with light skills, and the shadow guards also hurriedly followed.
When the two got closer, they saw Zhao Pu patting the black owl's neck.
The black owl paced in place, two long drag marks under his feet, and it seemed that he had suddenly braked sharply here.
But Zhan Zhao didn't see Xiao Wu, and asked Zhao Pu in surprise, "What about Xiao Wu?"
Zhao Pu stretched out his hand and pointed to the field on the side.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at it in a blink of an eye, and saw that there were rice fields on both sides of the official road, and Xiao Wu didn't know why he was rolling in the rice field, okay, his whole body was wet, like a big mud cat.
Xiao Wu got up from the muddy water and shook his mane, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang saw that it was holding something in its mouth, it looked like a basket, but it didn't get muddy water.
Xiao Wu jumped onto the shore, put the contents of his mouth on the ground in front of Zhanzhao and Bai Yutang, and stepped aside to continue shaking his hair.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang saw that it was indeed a basket, and there was something in it, it was stuffed to the brim, and they were about to squat down to take a look, when they heard a "wow".
The two of them were startled, and the black owl also took two steps back, and in the basket, there was a cry of a baby.
Zhao Pudao, "I ran here just now, there was a baby in a basket in the middle of the road, the black owl almost stepped on it, I saw that it was too late to pull the reins, fortunately, Xiao Wu pounced on the basket and took it away, but it ran too quickly to stop, and it would hit the black owl when it stopped, so it fell directly into the field."
Zhan Zhao nodded, touched Xiao Wu's head and praised it for being well-behaved.
Bai Yutang squatted down, opened the somewhat messy blanket in the basket, and saw that under the blanket, a little baby who looked almost a year old was crying.
"So small" Zhanzhao also came over to see, "Why did you lose it on the side of the road" "It's in the middle of the road."
Zhao Pu said, riding on the horse and looking around, "Who is so immoral and puts a child in the middle of the road, if the carriage passes by and doesn't see it, it will be crushed to death."
Zhanzhao also went up the tree to look around, but from the point that Xiao Wu sat calmly on the ground licking his hair, there were no other people around, abandoned baby Bai Yutang saw that the child was crying, so he reached out and picked him up and held him up to look at it.
The child looked at Bai Yutang, but he didn't cry anymore.
Zhan Zhao leaned over and looked at it, "It's very cute."
Bai Yutang also nodded, this doll is white and chubby, with big eyes and a round face, and then looking at his clothes, he should be taken care of by someone, not like an abandoned baby.
"Male and female" Zhao Pu also got off the horse and came over to ask.
The three big men were staring at a child and were studying, and suddenly, the doll moved in Bai Yutang's hand, and then there was a "wow" sound.
Bai Yutang subconsciously stuffed the child to Zhanzhao.
Zhan Zhao held it, the child was still crying, and Zhan Zhao gave it to Zhao Pu.
Zhao Pu was taken aback, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both looked at him, you are not the child king, can you get him Zhao Pu hurriedly put the child back in the basket, but he still cried.
"Oops, you guys don't be so rough" Later, Bao Daren and their people arrived, Pang Yu ran down from the carriage, ran over to pick up the child, shook and patted, coaxed a few times, the doll stopped crying, he was used to coaxing Xiangxiang, and he was already very experienced.
Lord Bao also got out of the carriage, and the female dependents behind also came down.
Chen Xing'er ran over with a small blanket, picked up the child in Pang Yu's hand, and held it to check, "It's a boy." ” "There seems to be something in my arms."
On the side, the crescent moon reached out and took out a letter from the doll's arms.
Zhan Zhao took the letter, opened it, and everyone came over to see it.
The general content of the letter is that the child's name is Honglu, just one year old, because the time of birth is very unknown, Liu Xianren sentenced him to be the reincarnation of the demon, and he will suffer disaster if he stays at home, and must be buried alive.
The child's parents were very superstitious and handed over the child to the old slave of the family to take out and bury alive.
The person who wrote this letter was the old housekeeper, and he couldn't bear to do it, so he left the child on the official road, hoping that a good Samaritan would raise the son.
After reading "Ridiculous" Zhanzhao, he looked at the fat doll, "It's sick, such a cute doll was lost because of someone else's words." ” "Nobody wants it, so I'll keep it," Pang Yu said.
Taishi just got out of the car and came over to see, "Oh, what kid no one wants me to want" Everyone was speechless, Taishi and Pang Yu probably missed Xiangxiang too much, and they wanted it when they saw the child.
"The Liu Xianren mentioned in this letter."
Bai Yutang said, "It's like a charlatan." ” Gongsun squinted his eyes to check the child's pulse, and said, "This kind of liar is the most hateful, and it hurts a lot, of course, what is even more hateful is the child's father, I don't know what to do."
Master Bao nodded, "According to the inference on the letter, this Liu Xianren is quite influential, he can make one family abandon their children, and he can also make another family kill infants, and he can't stay."
"Ochre."
Zhao Pu shouted.
"Lord Wang."
Ochre and purple shadows fell.
"Take someone to inquire about who that Liu Xianren is."
"Yes" The two of them took a group of shadow guards, and disappeared in a flash.
Lord Bao ordered someone to collect the basket, and the child was handed over to the female dependents to take care of, and continued to hurry.

Zhan Zhao looked at Xiao Wu covered in mud is not a way, and he may lose money if he tramples on the farmland, so he said that he will take Xiao Wu around, find water to rinse, and inquire by the way.
Master Bao nodded and instructed, "Be careful." ” So, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang took Xiao Wu and walked forward along the ridge, and walked out of a road, and sure enough, they saw the smoke curling from several farmhouses in the distance, and there was a small village in front of them.
Entering the village, just an old farmer came out with a hoe, and was startled when he saw Xiao Wu, Zhanzhao hurriedly stepped forward to explain a few words, and he was also loved by people because of his good looks, plus he showed the old farmer the waist card of Kaifeng Mansion, and made it clear that he was here to lose money, and the old farmer was happy, "Oh, the people in Kaifeng Mansion are different, and they will lose money if they step on a few seedlings, haha." ” The old farmer didn't ask for Zhanzhao's money, and said, "It's good if the rice is crooked, it's fine." ” Subsequently, he took Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang to his own fish pond, Xiao Wu jumped down and swam a few laps, the mud on his body was washed, and a big black fish was brought up.
Xiao Wu was eating fish by the river and drying his fur by the way, and Zhanzhao and Bai Yutang sat on the roadside with the old farmer and drank tea.
Zhan Zhao deliberately asked about Liu Xianren.
The old farmer frowned, "Oh Liu Xianren, what did he do this time, did he make people throw away the child or strangle his daughter-in-law?"
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other, and told the old man about the child he had just picked up on the side of the road, and the old farmer sneered and shook his head, "That dead Taoist priest has no good end."
Zhan Zhao asked the old farmer to explain in detail, but the old farmer was very happy, "Lord Zhan, is Lord Bao going to deal with that liar hurry up, try that dog's head for him" Zhan Zhao smiled, "As long as the evidence of the crime is conclusive, naturally I can't spare him." ” "Very good, very good" The old man nodded, and told Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang about the Liu Immortal.
This Liu Xianren came to Chengxian half a year ago, he claimed to be a miracle doctor or a miracle, this person can speak well, and it is indeed a bit of a crooked ability, he has cured a lot of incurable diseases, so at the beginning, the people of Chengxian County liked him very much, and even Ying Tianfu came to invite him to see a doctor.
But this person is not only seeing a doctor, but also telling fortunes, engaging in some kind of evil and witchcraft, and demagoguery.
Soon, there were more and more people who believed in him, and there were many people who killed their wives and children after he went home because of his words, and their families were ruined, and some gave him all their family wealth and ran to beg themselves.
In short, he lived in Chengxian for half a year, and half of the people in Chengxian were crazy It is said that the people of Chengxian County are now divided into two groups, one group is firmly believing in him, and every day following him to pray to the gods and worship the Buddha statue as if he has fallen into evil, and call him an immortal.
Others, like the old peasant, resolutely did not believe his nonsense, believing him to be a liar who sought money and killed people, but was often harassed by his followers.
After hearing this, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang roughly understood the reason.
Zhan Zhao was curious and asked, "Uncle, how do they harass you?"
The old peasant was angry, "These people follow the liar all day long to worship birds and gods, one trick a day, today they say that they can't eat grains, and tomorrow they say that what grows in the mud is filth, and they want to eat what flies in the sky and what doesn't touch the ground, so a group of crazy people go around catching birds and picking fruits to eat, and they also go to my field to make trouble, saying that they are here to save me, and people like me are facing filth all day long, and sooner or later they will not die well." ” The corners of Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang's mouths twitched.
Bai Yutang asked the old farmer, "How did you solve it?"
"Most of the people in our village don't believe it, they chase them with hoes, and most of the people who believe in the liar are dignitaries or rich squires.
That's right, we are all poor peasants, where is the silver for him to cheat?
” Zhan Zhao asked the old farmer, "Then what does Liu Xianren look like and where does he live?"
"He lives in Cheng County, and everyone in Cheng County knows where he lives, just ask."
The old farmer said, pointing to his head, "This person has a particularly obvious feature, that is, gray hair."
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned, "Are you very old?"
"Forty or fifty years old."
"That's right."
Bai Yutang asked, "What kind of bird god did you just say they worship?"
Zhan Zhao blinked, oh, isn't he swearing?
The old man said, "Oh, I saw it once, and they were a big group of people worshipping a god, half human and half bird, so we all joked that they birdmen worship bird gods. ” Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other and listened to the description, it was the evil feather that worshipped At this time, Xiao Wu finished eating the fish, licked his mouth and came back to rub Zhanzhao.
Zhan Zhao touched it, and saw that its hair was not so wet, so he hugged it and rubbed it with internal force for a while, Xiao Wu shook his hair again, and the black hair was fluffy and fluffy, and it was still hot.
"Huh" The old farmer touched Xiao Wu's hair with the courage to do so, "Such a god, Lord Zhan, you can also open a shop like that Liu Xianren to deceive people" Zhan Zhao shook his head helplessly, and got up with Bai Yutang to say goodbye.
The old farmer didn't let him lose money or ask them for tea money, and he even said that he invited Xiao Wu to eat the fish.
So, before leaving, Bai Yutang asked him, "Do you have any requirements?"
The old peasant nodded, and said seriously, "Kill that liar, this is a scourge."
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both nodded in agreement, said goodbye to the old farmer, and left.
The two rushed to Chengxian.
Zhan Zhao asked Bai Yutang, "What kind of faith do you want to be, so that you will throw away all your own children?"
Bai Yutang sneered, "It seems that it is not as simple as an ordinary liar, haven't you heard what the Taishi said, there were millions of believers in Evil Feather back then, and they were all crazy." ” "Well, a person believes in something for a reason, and no emotion can arise for nothing."
Zhan Zhao shook his head, took two steps, suddenly stopped, and looked back.
Bai Yutang also stopped, and looking back, Xiao Wu walked up to the two of them, looked at the forest in the distance, and then turned back to look at the two.
Bai Yutang's slightly frowning brows loosened, and he said to Zhanzhao, "Someone in the forest followed us just now. ” Zhan Zhao nodded, "Well, quite careful, I've already escaped." ” Bai Yutang turned around to continue walking, but Zhanzhao still looked at the forest.
"Cat," Bai Yutang called him.
"Hmm," Zhanzhao turned around.
"What's wrong," Bai Yutang was puzzled.
"Uh, nothing, curious who's following us."
After Zhan Zhao finished answering, he walked away with Bai Yutang, frowning as he walked Just now, before he felt that someone was following, he once again received that kind of resentful gaze.

This kind of gaze, Zhanzhao has received a total of three times so far, the first time was with Bai Yutang and they went to the Kubei Temple to find Xuanning, the second time was to worship Qu Zhongyuan in Qingzhu Mountain, and the third time was the same as just now, with a malicious gaze, and it seemed that every time he appeared, he was with Bai Yutang. ”:
