Chapter 757 Map
The city guard of Shengle City is named Hu, Hu Huai, a Yan native. He was a military scribe in his early years. Later he was promoted to Yanjing and worked under a yamen, and then the Great Yan Expedition When the war between Qian and Jin broke out, he was sent as an ordnance officer to escort supplies to the front line.
I was lucky. I led a group of civilians to disarm a Wenren family's defeated army and captured a young master of the Wenren family alive. I was rewarded and promoted. After several battles, I also made a lot of achievements. Credit, especially in the second Battle of Wangjiang led by King Jingnan, as the representative of Yan Army's logistics, he cooperated with Xu Youdao and others tacitly to maintain logistics stability.
At that time, Lord Zheng was promoted to the rank of General Soldier of Xuehaiguan, so Hu Huai inherited the rank of General Shengle and took charge of Shengle City.
The Yan State is different from the Qian State. The distinction between civil and military officials is not obvious in the Yan State. It is very common to change from a civilian official to a military general or from a military general to a civilian official. Xu Wenzu changed from a civilian official to the commander-in-chief of Nanwang City. .
When he learned that he was going to Shengle City to take up the post to succeed Uncle Zheng, Hu Huai was really happy.
At that time, the Jin Dynasty had just been occupied, and the imperial court of the Yan State was under a huge burden. Therefore, it became an era of "horse racing and encirclement" by various military leaders in the Jin Dynasty. Whose territory was good and whose territory was rich? Whoever has the best life.
The current reputation of Lord Zheng for being good at governing the place was established in Shengle City.
At that time, Shengle City had workshops, industries, caravans, and goods circulation. The products in the Tianduan Mountains to the north were prosperous.
Hu Huai originally thought that he was really lucky to be able to pick up a ready-made peach.
When he led his troops to Shengle City,
his eyes almost fell out!
Zhi Niang thief,
The people in the city have only ten houses and nine empty houses, and the villages in the surrounding area have basically no life left;
Even,
< br>
Even the gate of Shengle City was dismantled and transported away!
So, for a long period of time, Hu Huai hated Zheng Fan deeply. Since ancient times, he has never seen such a "scratching" person.
But as Zheng Fan rose step by step, his power and prestige increased step by step, and now, he is truly at his peak.
The resentment in Hu Huai's heart has long since dissipated. He often regards himself as the successor of Lord Zheng. During holidays, Hu Huai will ask someone to send gifts to Pingxi Hou Mansion.
Siniang is responsible for the courtesy exchanges in the Pingxi Hou Mansion. For General Sheng Le, who "self-submitted himself to the sect", the Hou Mansion did not neglect others and always returned the favor.
In addition, his location is really good. If one day the Hou Mansion plans to launch an army to rebel, Shengle City is an excellent place to respond. Therefore, General Hu will be added to the Hou Mansion's gift list.
On General Hu's birthday and his mother's birthday, including when his wife and concubines gave birth to children, etc., the Hou Mansion will send gifts.
Occasionally, a letter "handwritten" by Lord Zheng will be delivered to General Hu, extending his most sincere greetings.
But when Zheng Houye was in Shangchuan County, he also asked: Who is the current garrison general of Shengle City?
When a force develops and grows to a certain extent, it will naturally attract small surrounding forces to come in and join them, forming a network of relationships between them.
Lord Zheng usually either goes out to fight or practices swordsmanship and acupuncture at home.
Of course he doesn’t have time to do these things, but the people below will naturally help him share the burden.
So why did the new king communicate with Zheng Fan early and would rather hand over Yupan City, the nail in eastern Shanxi, to Zheng Fan in exchange for Zheng Fan's silence on the west side of Wangjiang River?
Hu Huai is just one of them, what about the other military leaders in Jin?
Let alone Li Fusheng, among the military sects stationed in various places under Li Fusheng, how many of them think that they once had a warm relationship with the Western Marquis and now have a warm relationship with them?
However
General Hu Huai's life is really uneasy these days.
A woman came to the Pingxihou Mansion first. As soon as she arrived, she asked him to send troops to help her capture various forces involved in human trafficking near Shengle City.
Back then, Zheng Fan went to Xue Customs and moved all the family property in Shengle City. Hu Huai naturally did not have that kind of business ability, but one business was preserved, and that was the trading of savage slaves.
It was by relying on this livelihood that Hu Huai was able to raise soldiers in Shengle City and survive his life reluctantly.
Now that a large number of people have been arrested like this, how can they do business down there?
But what Hu Huai knows better is that this woman represents the will of the Pingxi Hou Mansion at this time, and he does not dare to offend her.
Not only that, now that the new king has ascended the throne, the former Liuye Party has become the imperial party, and Pingxihou’s status has been promoted again, offending the Pingxihou Mansion. People don’t even have to play dirty tricks or use words. If he casually makes a mistake, he, General Shengle, will have to move away.
Instead of doing this, it is better to cling to the thigh of the Hou Mansion with determination. For this reason, Hu Huai personally took the woman's order and led his troops into the Tianduan Mountains in winter to attack a familiar savage. tribe.
Today, a blind man entered Shengle City surrounded by a group of guards in flying fish suits.
...
"Have you found it?" the blind man asked when he saw Siniang.
“We found a successor, but the person who seriously trafficked the people in was a tribe of mature savages in the Tianduan Mountains.”
The black industrial chain, early It was formed.
Savage slaves are a good job, especially in the current environment. Due to the war in the past few years, the population of Shanxi has dropped sharply. When the situation is stable and development needs to be restored, the problem of labor shortage is very serious. , thus further stimulating the demand for savage slaves.
On the barbarian side, although the people of Xia call them barbarians, in fact, they themselves do not consider themselves to be one ethnic group, especially the familiar barbarian tribe. Instead, they think that they are more Jin people, and they are not at all the same as their uncivilized compatriots. Not all the way.
Therefore, when the slave trade rose, the mature savage tribes began to be responsible for attacking and capturing the raw savage tribes, and then sold them to the Jin people.
Little monk Fan was captured by a familiar savage tribe and sold into Shengle City along with other savage slaves.
Then, after changing hands several times, he was sold to the red tent in Shangchuan County to be the future father-in-law.
“Yeah.”
The blind man nodded and sat down.
"Have you seen that little monk?" Siniang asked.
“I’ve seen it, but it’s all in this picture.”
The blind man took out the picture Zheng Fan drew and unfolded it;
“ I met the Lord on the road when I set out, and the Lord gave me this picture. I did some treatment and guidance for the young monk in Shangchuan County, but it was nothing more than making the picture more detailed. Just a little.”
"I thought you had figured out the time, place and person from the little monk's mind."
Actually, all you need to do is find the location information. With the exact location, you can send troops there from the Snow Customs.
The blind man shook his head and said:
"I have checked. Even if the young monk ate some black grass and caused some mental problems, he may have been frightened. Cognitive confusion, schizophrenia, etc. can be cured
Even if you don't worry about turning him into an idiot, you can directly search for the soul.
But the problem is, doing this is useless. "
The blind man reached out and poked his temple,
"The Lord thought that the young monk had a mental problem, but in fact he had suffered a mental shock. "
"Shock? "
"Yes, it is a sweep of mental power. It is not stimulation, it is equivalent to the method I like to use. ”
"I understand."
"Well, that's it. In fact, the human spirit is the same as the human body. Small injuries can slowly recover, but if you cut off your feet or hands, you can still recover. Will it grow back?
Similarly;
That little monk’s memory does not mean that he has forgotten it or cannot remember it, but that he can’t remember it. It was partially destroyed and mentally traumatized. I can't restore it. Even at my peak, I didn't have the ability.
It's like the top surgeon, who can at most repair it for you. A limb, a replacement limb, or a prosthetic limb cannot be replaced out of thin air.”
"Who do you think caused this kind of harm to him?"
"Probably, it's in the painting."
"Did you deliberately attack him?"
< br>"Probably not, just attack him as a young monk, there is no such thing as Meaning, is the cannon used to kill mosquitoes just for fun?
I think this should be more of a group spiritual rendering, not brainwashing, not fanaticism, not conversion, but a direct attempt with spiritual power. Infiltration and manipulation.
Strong-willed people are often more resistant, but at the same time, the damage will be more serious.
At first I came into contact with this young monk and his master. His master once proudly told me that this child has wisdom.
These are not the kind of polite words you say when asking for alms. For example, this female donor, you and I are destined to be Buddhas.
To be precise, his master believed that this child was the reincarnation of the master of his sect. Regardless of whether this was true or not, it at least showed that this child had a firm mind.
So, when an outsider attempts to forcefully change his beliefs using spiritual means, his own firm Buddhist heart will form an extremely strong rejection. ”
"Then what?"
"Then probably two things will happen. One, as you can see now, he has a brain injury and becomes mentally disabled.
The second The point is that he was able to break free when others were being controlled.
This can explain how he escaped. "
The blind man made a few gestures on the coffee table.
"Other people may have been assimilated, and have an extremely strong centripetal force, or...belief, towards something or a certain existence.
Under this premise, they will naturally not be severely punished Guard, because the bonds of spiritual will are often stronger and more difficult than the chains of physical existence. Break.
He is an exception, which is why he can escape from there even though he has no skills."
"Where is his master?"
"He. Master, obviously his Buddha mind is not as firm as his, haha, this is normal.”
"In other words, in the far north of the snowfield, the being under the ice has spiritual power?"
Siniang pointed to the figure under the ice in the painting and said.
"It may not be him. Among Tiantian's pets, if the fox is more advanced, he can actually do it. If a person has talent in this area, he can also do it with a little training.
Don’t those who specialize in this art also have techniques to suppress people’s minds?
There should also be spiritual magicians in the West.
To put it more simply, the star guides of the savages, the sacrifices of the barbarians, those who eat this meal, the truly profound beings, must also use this method. "
"The Lord takes this matter very seriously. "Siniang said.
"I know. The Lord talked with me for a while when he came. I agree with the Lord. After confirming the location, we will take action, regardless of whether the prophecy is true or false. It's a blind cat that meets a dead mouse.
Since it has become the pea under our mattress, it must be taken out.
By the way, this metaphor was said by the Lord. Haha, our Lord is becoming more and more of a princess. ”
Having said this,
the blind man patted his forehead again and said:
“I forgot to tell you, the Lord and the Sword Master were attacked on the Wangjiang River on their way back. "
"We were attacked?"
"Well, two Jianghu people and a Qi practitioner, but there was no danger."
At this moment,
Someone came in and reported:
"Two adults, my general is back."
General Hu, who went to conquer the Tianduan Mountains, returned in triumph.
Because it was a forced attack, some troops were lost.
General Hu himself was stabbed in the shoulder and was bandaged.
Although the blind man could see "at a glance" and there were no wounds in the bandaged area, he still warmly greeted General Hu and made various promises on behalf of Lord Zheng.
General Hu patted his chest and said that it was nothing, and he was willing to die for the Marquis, and then he took on the sword mountain and the sea of fire.
The blind man patiently accompanied Hu Huaijiang to finish the play,
Yes,
Although Ji Chengjue became Emperor of Yan,
but the blind man never gave up preparing for future rebellion.
The sky is unpredictable, and people are prone to misfortunes and misfortunes. Although the Lord and the new king are as good as honey mixed with oil, who knows what will happen in the future?
I like to eat Shaqima every day, which was taught by him as a blind man;
In the future, when the Lord has children, he can teach me again.
Think about it,
The children of the Lord and Siniang,
in front of all the devil uncles,
called for the dragon chair,
Tsk tsk,
These uncles, dare you help me without a favor?
As for how to give birth to a child, just slowly find a way. A pear tree can still overwhelm a begonia. Time is enough.
Hu Huai was satisfied and comfortable. From then on, he felt that he had really become a member of the Hou family;
What was pitiful was that he did not know, Marquis Pingxi didn't remember his name at all.
The captives began to be interrogated. Because they were familiar savages, there were many people who could speak Xia language, which made interrogation easier.
The blind man and Siniang focused on the captured items.
Six Niang has said before that there is no need for gold and silver treasures, so the rest are literal and not the kind of utensils used in daily life.
“I think it’s better not to have too high hopes.” Siniang said.
The blind man shook his head and said: "There is always hope, you see..."
From the seized items,
The blind man picked up a cassock.
It was used to wrap a piece of jade. The jade was thrown aside by the blind man, and the cassock lay flat.
Six Niang came over,
On her cassock,
drawn a map. The map was a little scrawled and very simple.
I don't know whether it was painted by young monk Liaofan or his master.
“Look, you have to believe in hope.”
The blind man smiled,
This map is not accurate, but it has pointed out a direction. The snowfield is very vast and vast. , the land in the far north is actually quite large. Without this map, it would be like looking for a needle in a fish pond. With this map, it would be like catching live fish in a fish pond.
"Okay, we can go back." The blind man said.
"What happens after you go back?" Siniang asked.
"According to the Lord's wishes, send troops immediately!" (End of this chapter)
