Chapter 137 The Holy Maiden of the White Lotus Sect
Based on the portrait, the Yangzhou Jinyiwei Hundred House Office cooperated with the local government to guard the city gates and posted a reward order for three months. The Jinyiwei spies and Yangzhou constables in the city were kept on guard for three months and found nothing.
As early as the third day after Gao Shixin left, an elderly couple came out of the city gate and walked in a crooked manner. When they arrived at the city gate, Yu, the Jinyi Guards and Bai Jiao of the Yamen did not conduct any more inspections and then released them out of the city.
The old couple left the city and immediately rushed to Guazhou and crossed the river by boat. At this time, another snow-white-bearded old man came out of the gate of Yangzhou City and left the city with a canal. However, the old man did not cross the river and headed south, but took a canal boat north to Shandong.
The old couple crossed the river and crept into the woods.
"You turn your head and I'm going to change my clothes!" the "old woman" shouted.
The old man had to turn his head, but heard the "old lady" yelling again: "Don't turn your head! If you dare to turn your head, your aunt will dig you up first and then tear you apart!"
"Little junior sister, you don't need to be that ruthless, right?" the man said.
"Don't call me junior sister! I'm a saint!" The old woman snorted, first removed the torn clothes on her body, took out a snow-white dress from the package and put it on her body, then tore off the human skin mask on her face, and her long black hair fell down. The ugly old woman disappeared and turned into a graceful character girl, who put on a thin veil.
"Okay, you can turn your head." The girl shouted.
The man turned his head. Although the veil covered his nose and mouth, it was still obvious that this was definitely a beautiful woman with a beautiful beauty. He looked at the girl without turning his eyes: "Little Junior Sister, you are so beautiful."
"You have changed your clothes, don't take off your mask, and continue to pretend to be an old man!" The girl snorted coldly and gave the order.
"Little junior sister, why do I continue to pretend to be an old man?" the man asked.
"Stupid! Pretend to be a father and daughter! You are all portrayed by the Eagle Claw Grandson. You take off your mask and be sure to be recognized by the Eagle Claw Grandson! You are so stupid that you are hopeless!" the girl scolded.
The man pretending to be an old man changed his clothes and turned into an old man who looked like an old housekeeper. Then the two of them got out of the woods and went to an inn to get a horse and a car. The girl got into the car, and the old man drove the car and headed south. In fact, this inn was also a den of the White Lotus Sect.
The man who was driving the car waved a whip and turned to the girl in the car and said, "The Eagle Claw Sun was taking a boat to Hangzhou. The boat was much faster than us. He left for two days first, but I'm afraid we won't catch up with him. I wonder why the junior sister had to keep track of this person, and what's the point?"
"This person carries a jade plaque, silver arrow, but the jade plaque can only be used by the commander and officer of the Jinyiwei, but he was given a thousand households in an extraordinary way. And that silver token can mobilize officials below the fifth rank of the court. What bad things is this dog emperor going to do?"
"Little Junior Sister, since that's the case, then we might as well kill this person!"
"Kill this person? We are trying to figure out what the court wants to do. If he kills him, what can you find out?"
"But how can we catch up with him?"
"Don't worry, we have arranged our people on the way and monitor him all the way!"
At this time, Gao Shixin was heading south on a boat to Hangzhou.
When he arrived in Hangzhou, Gao Shixin didn't bother to go to the city to check it out. He didn't even go to the west lake. He took a boat across the Qiantang River, went to the post station on the other side, showed his jade plaque, asked for a post horse, and rode his horse and headed straight for Jiangxi.
Time waited for no one. He knew that Emperor Wanli had only four months to live. When Emperor Taichang ascended the throne and died, and then the little carpenter ascended the throne, within the next three years, can Zhang Yong, the little brother of his own, control the situation? There is indeed a way for nine thousand years, but in four years, Gao Shixin can't wait. What if the old Xiong was pulled down during the period when the Donglin Party was in power? Then Jiannu took the opportunity to turn over again.
Because of the tight time, Gao Shixin did not stay in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and Wuxi, the hometown of Donglin Party, and traveled hard all the way.
Gao Shixin did not go to Xianxia Pass from Zhejiang to Fujian, but chose to go to Fujian from Maozhu Pass in Shangrao, Jiangxi.
Why do you want to go far? Because Gao Shixin wanted to go to Shaowu to see a guy who was captured Qianlong as a national hero. This guy was the county magistrate of Shaowu at this time.
He left Zhejiang and entered Jiangxi, and had already left the territory of the Donglin Party. Since he left the territory of the Donglin Party, Gao Shixin simply took out his flying fish suit and put it on his body, tied a gold belt, and carried an embroidered spring knife around his waist. He had a jade sign hanging on his waist. He entered the post station with a swagger to ask for horses.
Gao Shixin rode a horse and entered Fujian from Maozhuguan in Shangrao. He planned to wait until he arrived at Fuzhou Prefecture, and then change his clothes and continue to disguise himself as a civilian to Quanzhou. From Shangrao to Fuzhou, he could act in a high-profile manner.
But Gao Shixin felt something was wrong behind him, and it seemed that someone was following him secretly. With his keen sixth sense, he felt that someone was following him secretly.
"It's strange. Yangzhou Jinyiwei and the constable are really incompetent. They have painted them like this and can't catch people!" Gao Shixin had already guessed who was coming, "But it's strange. Even the people in Yangzhou are incompetent, they can hold those guys for a day or two, why are they still caught up with them?"
Gao Shixin forgot one thing: he could walk 300 miles a day, and the saint of the White Lotus Sect can do the same! The saint of the White Lotus Sect took a shortcut, and a section of the road was hiking to chase, and some places also took a boat to recover their strength. However, during the time when Gao Shixin took the canal boat, the boat speed was not very fast, so he only traveled 200 miles a day. As a result, the saint of the White Lotus Sect took the shortcut, shortening the distance.
The saint of the White Lotus Sect does not have the perverted physical strength and endurance as Gao Shixin, but there is a martial art called lightness.
Light skills are not what is described in martial arts novels. They can fly around in the air and jump up to the roof. Real light skills are actually a combination of parkour and internal force. With the help of internal force, they can walk as fast as flying, climb up the roof quickly, and walk on flat ground between the mountains and ridges.
Like some so-called Qigong masters perform in later generations, people stepping on eggs and balloons are actually props and cleverness. Let’s talk about eggs first. The load-bearing ability of eggs is actually very strong. Unfortunately, readers can try pinching eggs with their palms. Don’t use their fingers to increase the pressure. Just hold the eggs in the palm of your hand to see if they can be crushed. I’m afraid it’s difficult. As long as people step on eggs, as long as they control them well, the eggs are carefully selected thick-shelled eggs, and then soaked in salt water, which can completely withstand the weight of people. When they step on balloons, they are specially made balloons. Therefore, those so-called Qigong masters are almost liars. When they meet a certain Xiaodong, they will be exposed and beaten.
Because of this, Gao Shixin did not believe in light skills at all.
However, in Chinese history, there were indeed such a Qimen martial arts, which was just that it was very difficult to practice light skills. Few people could succeed, so it was lost later. The last person in Chinese history who really knew light skills was Duan Yunpeng, a spy of the Military Control Commission. This person was originally the apprentice of Yan Zi Li San, who once sneaked into Okamura's official residence with light skills to steal things. Unfortunately, he joined the Military Control Commission Secret Service after the end of the War of Resistance. He used his light skills to climb onto He Siyuan's roof with bombs and placed bombs, attempting to assassinate He Siyuan, but eventually killed He Siyuan's second daughter and injured many people. With his light skills, he escaped from the pursuit of the public security many times. Later, he sneaked into the mainland to develop spies and was finally arrested and executed.
The only one who followed Gao Shixin was the saint of the White Lotus Sect. Her junior brother did not have the light skills like her. As a result, she was the only one who continued to track Gao Shixin.
