Chapter 306 Find Another Tomb
Zheng Anping and the others originally followed the wizard to find the cemetery, but unexpectedly they met the retreating Qin army on the edge of the chasm. The five of them hid in a small ditch, unable to advance or retreat. The wizard had already been frightened to death.
The day was extremely long. The Qin people had camped on the bank and were ready to rest, but it was still daylight. Several groups of Qin troops collecting firewood crossed the river and came here. Fortunately, they did not get close. They were close to the bank of the river.
The Qin soldiers who were camping nearby were only two or three miles away, and they could even see their appearance clearly. No one dared to act rashly.
The wizard stayed quietly for a few hours, slowly regaining his composure. While Zheng Anping was changing to rest, he gently crawled in front of him. Regardless of being covered in mud and water, he sat down in the ditch. His flowing gown had long been worn out.
He was so wrinkled. Zheng Anping held his arm and patted his hand gently, indicating that he didn't need to be nervous. The wizard seemed to be looking forward to a savior and nodded repeatedly in emotion.
Finally, it was completely dark, and a blazing bonfire was lit in the Qin camp. Brother Su made a gesture, and the four of them stood up and finished dressing up again. The wizard also wanted to stand up, but his feet slipped. Zheng Anping immediately held down
The way he was, he couldn't take more than two steps without being discovered by the Qin people. He motioned for the wizard to lie down, and each of the four men grabbed a limb and quietly swam downstream along the bottom of the ditch.
Qin Camp lasted for almost dozens of miles. Fortunately, after walking four or five miles, the chasm turned south and distanced itself from the small ditch heading northeast. When the campfire of Qin Camp finally turned into stars on the horizon in the eyes of the four people
At this time, the four people crawled out of the ditch. Brother Dog was in front to explore the way, Xiaosi and Zheng Anping led the wizard in the middle, Brother Su was behind and headed towards Liangxi Post as quickly as possible.
Liang Xiyi was far away from the Qin army retreating along the chasm, and there was no sign of being affected. The four of them were relieved. Although the four of them had carefully slowed down their speed, the wizard was still out of breath as soon as he entered the inn.
Sitting on the ground and never getting up.
The four people brought firewood, lit a fire, took off their clothes and dried them, leaving only their backs bare. Zheng Anping helped the wizard over, took off his clothes for him, and let him warm himself by the fire. Brother Su had some knowledge and said that he had suffered a lot just now.
Rheumatism needs to be relieved by drinking some spicy soup. Xiaosi went to the back to find a few peppercorns, boiled water for Brother Su, and then cooked the whole millet to make porridge.
Everyone lit up the fire and warmed their bodies, then put on the dried clothes. Everyone drank a bowl of pepper soup. They were sweating and became more energetic. They sat by the fire and waited for the porridge to be cooked. Zheng Anping asked the wizard:
"Where is what you said sir?"
The wizard calmed down and said: "If the place of perfection is covered with armor, it will also break the feng shui and it will be difficult to do anything. If you allow me to divination every day, I will definitely get a good place." After being frightened, the wizard was not very interested and could not speak.
There were only four people by the fire discussing the withdrawal of the Qin troops. Peace was in sight. Everyone could go home, straighten their farm tools, and help each other plow the fields. Talking about Masan again, this big brother was actually at this time
It was unworthy of him to die at the hands of thieves... But the war ended without any major battle and no one died. Everyone felt happy.
After drinking porridge, Zheng Anping sent the wizard back to the village. It was too late and he was embarrassed to disturb the village leader, so he took the ox cart back to his home. It was almost midnight by this time.
Zhang Lu didn't lock the door and just sat and waited in the courtyard. When he saw Zheng Anping coming in and pulling the bullock cart, he helped unload the harness, tied the bullocks to the stakes, spread hay for the bullocks to eat, and asked: "What's the matter?"
Meet the Qin people?"
Zheng Anping said: "I was about to speak to you, but you warned me."
Zhang Lu said: "The Qin people retreated. Who knows? The entire countryside has been persuaded."
Zheng Anping said: "The Qin people took the water route along the chasm to the north, and used boats to carry their luggage. There were no cars."
Zhang Lu said: "Go north along the chasm, enter Yingze, guide the Jishui River, abandon the boat and land on the shore, and return to the Qin Dynasty."
Zheng Anping said: "I must follow what Mr. Wang said."
Zhang Lu said: "Since Qin entered Qin through the chasm, Huayang's soldiers must not pass through Xingyang and return to Huzhen to avoid Qin's soldiers. They must return to Qifeng in the east and return to the north."
When Zheng Anping saw that Zhang Lu took the initiative to mention Huayang's soldiers, he took the opportunity to ask: "The Han people are stationed in Huayang, why should Huayang's soldiers retreat?"
Zhang Ludao: "Judging by reason, Huayang was originally the city of Han. Since Han is aiding Wei, Wei will no longer be able to rely on Han, so it must return. However, the promised wealth must be calculated."
The cow has been tied up, the grass has been mixed, and the two are ready to rest. Zheng Anping suddenly said: "Sir, do you think the war is over?"
Zhang Lu said: "What is it?"
Zheng Anping said: "When the Qin people came out, they killed people and filled the fields, and blood flowed into rivers. Now that they have not been killed by one level, where should they return?"
Zhang Ludao: "Young Master's words are true. The people of Qin did not reach the first level and returned without merit. This is not what Ranghou did. However, since we are allied with heaven and earth, what should we do?"
Zheng Anping said: "The Qin people are encamped in Wei, and they are fully equipped with soldiers and armor. If they suddenly rise up and launch an attack, what can they do?"
Zhang Lu said: "Now that the Wei troops are all in Liang and Hua, they must be well prepared. The Qin people have done nothing, only to be accused of being dishonest. But there is no need to worry. The troops have gone out and captured eight cities. It's time to return! It's time to return!"
At night, Zheng Anping felt cold all over, his throat hurt, and he had trouble swallowing. He knew it was not good, but he was unbearably sleepy, so he slept in a daze until dawn. His body felt cold and hot for a while, and he felt uncomfortable. Zhang Lu saw him, He was advised to rest today. Zheng Anping said: "Yesterday, when I was looking for Brother Ma's yin place, I met the Qin people. The shaman said that it was not good to encounter soldiers in the yin place. I would like to ask for it again, so I have to do it with all my strength."
I took the car to the liant and asked for help, and told me that I would rent it for another day. The liant agreed, but still only wanted five cents.
After leading the cart out of the entrance, I saw the wizard coming out with his head bent and his voice hoarse. He asked, "Sir, are you feeling ill?"
The wizard said: "I feel the wind and cold, and I am frightened again. How can I not get sick? Fortunately, I took medicine and pills at night, and I got a little bit of peace. Now that I am not in good spirits, it is difficult to do divination. I will give you a divination in three days."
Although Zheng Anping had no choice but to say: "Sir, just take care of your body and don't think about the deceased."
The wizard said: "Don't worry if you respect me, I won't do anything wrong!"
The two resigned, and Zheng Anping took the oxcart back and explained the situation. The head of the village took the initiative to return the five coins to Zheng Anping.
The wizard could report his illness, but Zheng Anping was worried. He dragged his legs to Liangxiyi. When he entered the door, he found that none of the three people were spared. They all had fever, cough and sore throat. Everyone blamed Brother Su for eating the pepper soup. Brother Su was very dissatisfied when he found the wrong symptoms and said: "If you don't take the soup, the disease will be twice as bad."
Zheng Anping said: "You might as well rest for a while. The shaman also has cold and heat and can't do his job. I told you to wait for three days and then you can do it."
Brother Su said: "This can help me in my urgent need. However, Brother Ma may have changed after he has left the coffin for a long time! It may also be difficult to support the lamp oil."
Zheng Anping said: "When I was young, I went to explore the chasm and got a little idea of it."
Brother Su said, "Brother and I are going together."
After taking a short rest, Zheng Anping and Brother Su took off their leather armor and walked south wearing only their normal clothes. In the distance, they saw flying dust, which was obviously a large army passing by. The two did not dare to get close, so they only watched from a distance. The dust was visible at a glance. Before the end, I don't know how many troops passed by.
Brother Su said, "We have to wait for three days!" The two returned to the post and told the other two people about the situation. The other two people also had no objection: the Qin army had not finished passing, so it was useless to say anything.
The three of them had a long journey, so they stayed in the post. There was not much food left in the post. Zheng Anping decided to go home and leave the remaining food to the three of them as much as possible.
After returning home, Zheng Anping fell asleep. In the evening, he drank a bowl of porridge and fell asleep again. The next day, he felt a little energetic, but his throat still hurt badly.
After drinking the porridge, Zheng Anping wanted to go out for a walk, so he said to Zhang Lu: "I want to go to the chasm to see what the Qin people are doing. Sir, can you teach me?"
Zhang Lu said: "If the Qin people retreat, be careful not to sneak up behind them, for fear of being attacked by an ambush."
Zheng Anping said: "The Qin people retreated, why did they ambush?"
Zhang Lu said: "I'm afraid Wei will attack from the rear. If the Qin people retreat, they will leave brave men to cut off their rear."
Zheng Anping didn't seem to believe it, so he went out and looked south. After advancing for more than ten miles, it turned out that there was no dust and the Qin people had retreated. When he wanted to move forward again, he heard the sound of a bow and an arrow shot straight to his feet. Zheng Anping was frightened.
"Oh!" he turned around and ran away...but no one came after him.
After returning home, Zheng Anping was still in shock and said to Zhang Lu: "Sir, you are a true god and man, there must be an ambush!"
Zhang Lu asked: "How many soldiers are there? Where are they lying?"
Zheng Anping said: "How dare you look at it! But when you see an arrow hitting your feet, your liver and gallbladder will be split, and you will run away."
Zhang Lu said: "Just one arrow?"
Zheng Anping said: "Of course!"
Zhang Lu said: "The people of Qin are kind and ask you not to come forward. I don't want to shoot you!"
Zheng Anping finally calmed down, recalled the current situation, and said, "It's just as Mr. said!"
Zhang Lu said: "The wizard has just arrived. Hearing that you were out, he waited for you in the long house. He said that he had something important to say."
Zheng Anping straightened his clothes, specially put on the white clothes given by Lord Xinling, and went inside to grow up.
After announcing loudly outside the door, the chief came out and asked him to go to the hall. The wizard was also there, standing in front of the hall to greet them. The three of them saw the ceremony again and entered the hall. Zheng Anping wanted to sit in the guest seat, but the chief held him back and held him.
The two of them sat at both ends of the case, and he sat down in the middle and said: "The wizard has something to do and wants to sue the young master. Don't blame me!"
Zheng Anping felt strange and said: "Sir, you have just told me, how dare you blame me!"
The wizard said: "My servant was blamed by the gods at night. He said he was unfaithful in his plans and made many mistakes for noble people! The servant woke up with a start and was sweating profusely. He was thinking about why he was unfaithful and suddenly realized that the tomb he had planned with the young master was the same. There is a good acupuncture point for the servant.
, intending to use it for his own use. The responsibility of the gods lies here! However, the road to this point is not short and the cost is not high."
Zheng Anping became suspicious and asked, "How much will it cost?"
The wizard said: "This will be convenient by boat. If you use it, you can get a thousand coins!"
Zheng Anping said: "I only hope that you, sir, will be the second best! We are sent by others, but we only have one piece of clothing and one piece of food, so how can we get a thousand pieces of money!"
Li Chang said: "Let me put it bluntly, since the witch talent is blamed by the gods, you can't get a cent of it for yourself, but you can do your best to repay the gods. Since this point is sent by the gods, it will be inconvenient for personal use. But there is a fee for it, and the other
It’s okay to avoid it.”
