Everyone gathered together in the study of Lord Bao of Kaifeng Mansion.
Originally, three groups of people were divided into three groups to investigate the clues, and the information that people from all sides had different information.
In addition, there is Xiao Sizi, and their team of original idlers are thrilled to eat, which is the fourth clue.
The episode in Yi Ming Pavilion was undoubtedly aimed at Zhao Pu, as the intimate little padded jacket raised by Zhao Pu's family, someone wanted to frame Jiujiu and the fourth son went around in Kaifeng Mansion, and successively arrested his father, Ouyang Shaozheng, Zou Liang, Long Qiaoguang, Lord Bao, and Nangong Ji told these people what they heard in the teahouse.
There was also Xiao Liangzi next to him to help add oil and vinegar, Luo Ying was articulate and clear, and explained in detail what Xiao Sizi didn't say clearly.
So by the end of the evening, all the people who cared about Zhao Pu knew about this stubble.
Ouyang Shaozheng kicked over a stone bench in the courtyard, trying to find trouble with the eldest grandson Qi, but was stopped by Zou Liang, signaling him not to worry, someone will take action at this time, more effective than us.
As Zou Liang expected, at this time, Zhao Zhen in the palace was so angry that the Longshu case was lifted after listening to the Nangong Ji report, "I dare to slander Uncle Jiu for disturbing the army's heart and ruining his military exploits, Sun Qi, a loser who does not seek to improve, Zhang Liang is not right, and he is crooked, and he is not enough to succeed and more than to lose."
Nangong Ji nodded to Gonggong Chen at the door, and the old man shook his head and ordered someone to go to the imperial dining room to get herbal tea for the emperor, and the emperor was on fire again.
Zhao Zhen asked Nangong to send someone to see what the hell Changsun Qi had been doing recently, who he was dealing with, and to arrest the two storytellers Zhao Zhen returned to the harem half angrily, and wanted to hug Xiangxiang to be happy, but saw Concubine Pang sitting in the courtyard sighing, Xiao Xiangxiang was standing on the stone table next to her mother, holding a small fist to give her mother a kiss on the shoulder.
Zhao Zhen was a little puzzled, and asked at the gate of the courtyard who ran in with herbal tea, Concubine Pang's personal maid.
The maid was helpless and whispered to Zhao Zhen, "It's not because of the little marquis, I heard that I was chased and killed again, and I almost lost my life." ” Zhao Zhen was speechless, and came to Pang Yu again, this is considered to be Tai Sui, how unlucky things always have his share Zhao Zhen simply went into the courtyard and sat down, sighing with his daughter-in-law.
Xiao Xiangxiang stood between her father and mother, beating her mother's shoulder, and then beating her father's shoulder, busy back and forth.
Put down the couple in the palace who are on fire and don't mention it, and say that at this time in the study of Kaifeng Mansion.
After talking about the results of the three-way investigation, the generals talked to Shi Jin again, and they were probably asked about the specific terrain of Shijin Evil Pot Island, and they asked very carefully.
After everyone finished talking, Lord Bao asked Zhao Pu, "Have you heard of the beast trap formation?"
Zhao Pu frowned, "familiar" "The battle of Caowei Valley, what kind of beast is it with?"
asked Zhan Zhao.
Zhao Pu raised his eyebrows, "That's natural." ” Everyone was relieved.
"Using the terrain between two mountains and one ditch is not a very common technique in the art of war, why is it called an evil array?"
Bai Yutang was puzzled.
"Qimen Dunjia or something" Ouyang didn't seem to understand, "Isn't it just that some organs are ambushing and making it so evil." ” "The evil array is different from Qimen Dunjia."
Gongsun waved his hand, "The evil array is recorded in some books, and I have seen that the so-called evil array was not originally created for war, but it was just a witchcraft formation.
It's not about layout or tactics, it's about spells and some weird rituals. ” "What exactly does that beast trap refer to?"
Zhao Pu asked.
"The Beast Trap Array is indeed one of the four evil formations, but what Eldest Sun Qi said is only half-understood."
Gongsun Dao, "The real beast trap array is to introduce the vital object into the trap set up, it's as simple as that. ” Everyone looked at Gongsun and explained the meaning in detail.
"The trap is one of the most vicious of traps."
Gongsun patiently explained, "Once the beast is caught, it will cut off its limbs or kill it.
Most of the traps are hidden, and the best place to set them up is on the only road to and fro, so the hit rate is higher.
However, no matter how good the beast trap is, it has to be stepped on by the beast to do it, whether the beast is a good person, it is not so easy to be deceived by the evil magic to confuse the other party, so that he himself is confused and stepped on the beast trap, which is the so-called beast trap array" Everyone understood that it was a kind of witchcraft.
"Can you really confuse people through witchcraft?"
Zhan Zhao wondered, "Or is it some kind of soul magic?"
Gongsun shook his head, he didn't know very well.
"Speaking of which."
Zhao Pu leaned on the table with one hand, shaking the little fourth son on his leg with his legs moving back and forth, and said to himself, "In the early years, I read some military books, and some battles were really won inexplicably. ” Everyone looked at Zhao Pu.
"It's all some old military books, recording some battles from a hundred years ago or even earlier."
Zhao Pudao, "Ambushes and flanking attacks are very commonly used, and the strange thing is that there are a few battles that are inexplicably won, and the generals of the other side are like evil spirits, and they send their soldiers and horses into the trap without considering the consequences."
Those generals who are not mediocre are also those who have fought a lot of beautiful battles, but they just made the gods fall for a particularly low-level plan and collide with evil spirits. ” Ouyang leaned against the table with his chin in his hands and nodded, "Well, didn't you ask my father when we were children when we listened to the military book together, why did those famous generals suddenly be stupid and make such an idiotic decision." ” After Bai Yutang listened, he asked his second brother, "Second brother, is the Beast Clip Island the same as the Beast Clamp Array?"
Han Zhang frowned and seemed to be thinking about this as well, "There are some discrepancies, but there seems to be a connection." ” Everyone looked at Han Erye, and it seemed that there was a new story to listen to.
The little fourth son climbed from one leg of Zhao Pu to the other, Zhao Pu continued to shake his legs, and the little fourth son swayed around like riding a horse, and the little one on the side tilted his head, his eyes moved around, and he followed the little four sons from side to side.
"The island of the Beast is derived from a legend."
Han Zhang said, "At the end of the Tang Dynasty, there was a very strong group of pirates, numbering tens of thousands and thousands of ships, which were extremely ferocious and caused great trouble to the coastal area. ” Everyone thought about it, and it did seem that there was such a period.
"The emperor at that time sent a large number of soldiers and horses to wipe out the pirates, but he didn't expect to suffer heavy losses because he was not good at water warfare."
Han Chang continued, "At that time, witchcraft was prevalent, and someone recommended a wizard to the emperor.

The wizard lives in the mountains and never goes out, which is very mysterious.
The Emperor sent the general of the navy to ask for advice, and the sorcerer told him a way to wipe out all the pirates."
Zhao Pu was very interested, "Such a god" Han Chang nodded, "The wizard told the naval generals that on the sea, there is an island of beasts, and one island has been split into two, and the rift valley in it is very deep and long, and there is water to sail at high tide, and when the tide is low, the ship is stranded and unable to move.
Just prepare fire oil on the cliffs on both sides, and then wait until the time between high tide and low tide to bring in all the pirate ships, and attack them with oil and rockets when the pirate ships run aground, and the pirates will be wiped out. ” Zhao Pu frowned after hearing this, "The plan is good, but it is difficult to implement, how to let the pirates enter by themselves" "That's where the next wizard comes in."
Han Zhang said, his tone lowered a little, "Life for life" Everyone was stunned and surprised, "life for life" "It's said to be a kind of sorcery."
Han Zhang said, "First prepare a huge melting pot when the tide of the beast clip island is low.
Then prepare the same number of death row prisoners as the pirates, or the dead people that no one cares about. ” Everyone frowned when they heard this, and they had a premonition that it was a very murderous method.
"Blindfold the death row inmates, put on a mask, and give them certain medications."
Han Chang continued, "Then, under the guidance of the wizard, let those death row prisoners line up into the cave and fall into the furnace and burn to death. ” Everyone gasped, and at the same time they all looked at the little fourth son.
But at this time, the little fourth son was still sitting on Zhao Pu's lap, as soon as he talked about what wizard he was talking about just now, Zhao Pu covered his ears, not to mention, he was really right.
Everyone knew that Xiao Sizi had a nightmare before, and said that when he saw the people of the brigade wearing masks and walking into the dark cave, maybe it was this ritual.
This kind of behavior is too cruel, completely beyond the ability of the fourth son at this age, Zhao Pu didn't want him to continue to have nightmares, so he covered his ears early in the morning.
"The souls that die in the forges will turn into giant sea beasts and follow the wizard's command to attack the pirate ship, drag the anchor, and lead the fleet into the island.
At that time, the soldiers and horses in ambush on the island only needed to attack according to the plan to wipe out all the pirates.
Han Chang said, nodding to the stunned crowd, "This is the legendary, Beast Clip Island."
And it is said that the sea beast that turned into the unjust soul cannot escape from the cave, and will always be trapped in the canyon of the beast clip island.
Resentment grows, and the condemned prisoners and pirates are the most vicious people, so the rift in the Beast Clip Island has gradually become the most dangerous and evil place in the world.
The sea beast would often go out and drag innocent ships in, causing the crew to die and the ship to sink, especially the big ships with a lot of people on board, which was especially attractive to it."
"That's because of that."
Jiang Ping continued, "Sometimes there are large sea ships that need to pass near the island, and a certain number of death row ships will be prepared to go first.
When the ship with the death row prisoners disappeared, the big ship sailed again, and it was basically able to pass smoothly. ” Zhan Zhao frowned with a look of disgust, "Then General Tang really used that wizard's method to ask for the lives of 10,000 people in exchange for those pirates."
"That's right."
Han Zhangyi shrugged his shoulders, "One great achievement, all the pirates have been wiped out, the voyage has been restored, the fishermen are happy, the coastal residents are happy, and the emperor is even more happy, and he will be promoted and make a fortune immediately, in their opinion, 10,000 death row prisoners and homeless homeless people are nothing."
Everyone felt a little disdainful of the fame and fortune that they had exchanged for so many lives.
Although pirates are hateful, there is no need to ask where to find so many death row inmates at one time, there may be juvenile delinquents like Shi Jin who have gone astray but are not guilty of death, or there may be homeless people who care about their families, and that general is really ruthless.
Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but wonder why Shi Jin was brought to the island back then "What about the masks they're wearing?"
asked Bai Yutang.
"The masks are all made by wizards."
Han Zhang said, "I don't know the specifics. ” "It's a really insidious move."
Zhao Pu frowned.
Gongsun asked him in a low voice, "Then the so-called sacrificial activities you saw when you were a child, as well as what sea beasts you went to sea to hunt, and that mask, will it have anything to do with this matter?"
Zhao Pu nodded, "Zhao Zhen suddenly avoided talking about this matter, maybe he knows better, what the hell is going on?"
"Sneeze" In the palace garden, Zhao Zhen was sighing for the hundredth and one breath, when suddenly his nose itched, and he sneezed into the sky.
Xiangxiang on the side was sitting on the table, dozing off on Zhao Zhen's arm, so that Zhao Zhen woke up with a sneeze, the little guy reached out in a daze and grabbed a handful in front of Zhao Zhen's eyes, and threw it out, this trick was taught to her by the little fourth son, and she shouted with milk in her mouth, "Sick, Feifei" Zhao Zhen, who was originally sad, was so cute that she hugged her daughter, and Concubine Pang also felt much better.
The two couples were about to have dinner after teasing Xiangxiang for a while, when Nangong Ji hurriedly walked in, lowered his head and whispered a few words in Zhao Zhen's ear.
Concubine Pang saw that Zhao Zhen's originally better face turned black again in a blink of an eye, and it was so black as never before.
Zhao Zhen took a deep breath and handed Xiangxiang to Concubine Pang.
Concubine Pang hurriedly hugged Xiangxiang back to the house.
When the mother and daughter left, Zhao Zhen stood up and asked Nangong, "You read that right" Nangong nodded, "What the minister saw with his own eyes is true." ” Zhao Zhen raised his hand and "snapped" on the stone face, "So they want Uncle Jiu's life" Nangong nodded.
Zhao Zhen sneered and waved his hand, "They don't want Uncle Jiu's life, they want my life":
