Chapter 33 Ten Thousand Riders Come to the River of Blood
The collapsed platform turned into a huge pile of firewood, with the raging fire burning, and the rolling heat waves caused the entire Heishawa to fall into silence again.
A great sword master was buried in the sea of fire like this. The dazzling sword light and the proud demeanor of heaven and earth made people unable to believe that it had become eternal in an instant.
"The firewood is prosperous and prosperous, and you will be prosperous and prosperous! You will sacrifice to heaven and earth as a great swordsman, and you will be able to shine through all the waters and mountains! Why worry about not being satisfied next year!"
Suddenly someone yelled.
Most of the officials from the Taipu Temple and the Ministry of War present were not very satisfied in Chang'an or other prefectures and counties, otherwise they would not have been arranged to do this chore. However, after all, they were all the same as those of the Taishi Bureau, and some people were quick-witted.
The man who made a sound covered his face and shouted, turned around and squeezed into the crowd.
This was originally a place to worship the sky, but suddenly a person died here, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.
This shout is used to remove bad luck so as to ensure that the next process is not affected. But who knows whether the Shangguans in Chang'an think that his shouting is right or wrong, and it is better not to show off this kind of limelight.
The Taipu Temple and other officials from the Ministry of War were also awakened, and some people who knew that Feng Shuqing was born were also moved.
In the past twenty years, the Tingtao Sword Academy controlled by Xie has been ordinary, and unexpectedly, it has raised such a great swordsman.
"Do you still need to perform the sacrifice again?"
"What a joke, I don't have any eyesight to see!"
An official from the Ministry of War scolded the person behind him who was inquiring.
Not to mention that someone already shouted that way, even if there wasn't, it would be difficult to find so many woods in Heishawa City to rebuild a high platform.
There are a lot of stones on the Black Shawa side, but the wood is transported from outside in advance.
The next process continued, and the handover of the war horses was extremely smooth.
The war horses I have raised here this year are much stronger than those in previous years.
The Taipu Temple officials who were sweating all over when they checked the war horses, but were relieved occasionally broke into Pei Yunqi's sight, which caused Pei Yunqi to sneer with contempt.
She didn't need to look at it to know that this year's war horses have no problems at all.
Everyone knows that the emperor attaches great importance to the delivery of war horses here this year. Although local officials here may not know the reason, unless they are so stupid that they want to lose their heads, who dares to deduct the cost of raising war horses in the year that the emperor is particularly concerned about?
No matter how good the horse is in this year, unless these people all want to rebel.
Originally, Pei Yun had two things to do when he arrived in Heishawa. One was to make some strange things in the market in Heishawa. It is said that many of the Hu people here are difficult to see in the shops in Chang'an. The other was to find out whether the border troops here were lazy and whether there was anything particularly lacking. The generals with the highest positions in this border troops can be considered half of the Pei family, and the Pei family would also take special care of them and their subordinates.
However, she met Yin Shiniang and Feng Shuqing's battle last night, and today she met Gu Liubai and Yinshan who were swarming in full view of everyone. She suddenly lost interest in those things, and she was constantly struggling in her mind when she would see the people swarming in Yinshan again.
Gu Liubai did not deliberately hide his traces. She wanted to find Gu Liubai and could find it at any time, but the key is that what she and Gu Liubai said was to wait until she was free.
If this big change comes after a living person, she will pass in a short while.
This doesn't seem to fit her identity.
Although she is indeed very idle, she cannot make people feel that she is so idle.
She hesitated for a long time and decided to wait until the sun sets before passing.
Anyway, the bastard told her that he would stay here for at least a few days.
"Either you can't get the pass certificate at all, or you're still too short-sighted!"
Pei Yunqi didn't know that Gu Liubai wanted to go to Chang'an at this time.
On the contrary, she asked Peng Qingshan to mention the pass certificate before, which was also a test of Gu Liubai and Yinshan's group of people.
In her opinion, if they had a strong desire for the pass certificate, it would mean that Gu Liubai and others would definitely flee into the Tang Dynasty and flee far away. If they had no interest in the pass certificate, it would mean that they still wanted to wander outside the pass.
If it is the latter, it means that the vision is not enough, and Xie will never let them go.
On the contrary, when they arrived in the Tang Dynasty, many forces checked and balanced each other. If someone like her was taking care of her, these talents would be easier to survive.
The Tang Dynasty was extremely strict in controlling personnel flow. If she wanted to completely avoid Xie's eyes and ears, even if she only got the pass certificate that could only pass through a few nearby prefectures and counties, she could not think of anyone else here with such ability besides her.
The customs clearance certificate has always been a testimony to the governance level of all dynasties. The customs clearance certificate of the Tang Dynasty must not only clearly state the household registration, but also the income, tax payable and other information.
To have a pass-through certificate that can be truly accessible, it will be necessary to open up many yamen.
Not that easy!
...
Before sunset, Heshawa was already in a carnival atmosphere.
The satisfaction of the officials of Taipu Temple and the Ministry of War indicates that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will be satisfied.
Officials may be reserved, but those border residents who have gained practical benefits and have made copper coins have no concept of reserve.
As the fires ignited, the cold air was squeezed out, and the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time were released. Before the ignorant wind lights on the city wall were ignited, many drunkards who were constantly dancing in circles appeared in the city.
Pei Yunqi, who had suppressed his emotions for most of the day, finally couldn't help but go out.
She wore a Hu dress, which was men's clothing.
However, the bulging chest and slender waist naturally don’t make people think she is a handsome young man.
Those who guard the granary were all similar people from Xu Tuibe.
There is no oil and water, but the responsibility is great. Even if the mice eat too much food, they will probably be beaten by the superior.
The advantage is that there is no problem with you in normal times.
When Pei Yun came, Xu Tuibei and several border soldiers guarding the granary and Gu Liubai were roasting rat meat around a fire.
As soon as Li Xizhi, who was leading the road ahead appeared, the border troops guarding the granary retreated consciously, and Gu Liubai and Xu Tuibei were left beside the fire.
"Where is the great sword master?"
Pei Yunqi sat down on the stone pier beside Gu Liubai casually.
She still doesn't know the specific name of Yin Shiniang, but in her opinion, there is only one real great sword master in the city.
"Today's acting took a lot of effort, and she needed to rest." Gu Liubai's pupils shone with wisdom.
In fact, Yin Shiniang was nothing at all, but he felt it was necessary to snatch Pei Yunqi's appetite.
Because if you can see it just by wanting, the great sword master will not be worth it anymore.
"What's wrong with the blood light on her body? You won't really get hit by the sword?"
"I prepared two pig urine bubbles filled with blood, which was a pity for her clothes."
"Without discussing in advance, she and Feng Shuqing actually acted so well."
"At their realm, when the sword light of the two of them ignite, they will know where the other party's sword is going."
Pei Yunqi suddenly thought of some possibility and frowned slightly at Gu Liubai, "How about you using a sword?"
"I understand a little bit." Gu Liubai said: "I have learned sword for two or three years, but later I was sick and I have no place to learn it."
Pei Yunqi had been paying special attention to this corpse-burying man from Mingbaipo before. She had known that Guo Beixi had died in Mingbaipo. At this time, she felt that this was the case when she heard Gu Liubai say this. Even if Guo Beixi is indeed powerful, it still takes enough time to polish a disciple.
He has learned sword skills for at least nearly ten years, and he is not as good as Li Xizhi and others. However, Li Xizhi is not worthy of carrying shoes for the great swordsman, so how much future can Gu Shiwu have?
Her eyes turned to Xu Tuibei, who was eating and drinking.
Seeing that the other party seemed to be completely unafraid of his appearance, Pei Yunqi immediately snorted coldly and said, "Creating fire in the granary is a must-have to hit military sticks."
Xu Tuibei smiled and said, "I know."
Pei Yunqiu became even more unhappy, "I know, but I dare?"
Xu Tui said, "I'm in charge of checking the fire in the granary."
Pei Yunqi sneered, "The crime is more serious, and the military sticks will be beaten to death."
Xu Tuibei smiled and said, "Who does anyone deliberately make fire? I just saw these people fulfilling their duties, burning smoke at night to drive away rats and killing rats."
Pei Yunqiu was angry and was about to have anger, but Xu Tuibei picked up a piece of roasted rat meat with a knife and handed it to her, saying, "Do you eat it?"
Looking at Xu Tuibei's joking look, she was immediately dissatisfied.
When I dare not eat?
She sneered and took it over and chewed it carefully.
Xu Tui looked at Gu Liubai without saying a word and said in his heart: "It's so accurate to look at people. This crazy girl is the main focus of a rebellion."
Pei Yunqi is not pretentious either.
In her opinion, this kind of rat meat is no different from rabbit meat, but the skills of these people are really not worthy of praise.
After eating this piece, she lost her appetite. She just looked at Xu Tuibei and said, "Xu Tuibei, are you really not interested in that female corpse?"
“??”
Xu Tuibei was a little confused now.
Two officials from the Taishi Bureau were stopped outside the granary.
Tonight's stargazing has not officially begun. They just feel that it is safest to follow Pei Yunqi when they are not stargazing.
Tonight there are too many bonfires in the black shawar, illuminating the sky, and they will have to watch the stars later before they can see them in real life.
However, at this moment, the officials of the two Taishi Bureau changed their color in shock.
They saw that the sky outside the city was red!
All the starlight that just appeared in that area seemed to be bathed in the river of blood.
The warning sounds on the west gate tower sounded first, and then there were warning sounds on all the city walls, and there were loud screams!
"What's going on?"
When Pei Yunqi stood up in the granary suddenly, Li Xizhi had already appeared on a nearby arrow tower.
He looked towards the West and saw countless stars of firelight gathering into a river, winding on the ground, and the sky was illuminated by the firelight below.
"Enemy attack?"
His whole body felt like he fell into an ice cave in an instant.
The firelight covered the earth, probably far more than 20,000 people!
