Tiger Ben station.
He Mulan was gone, and the first trouble he faced was how to deal with Li Shun's affairs.
Although Chen Jie casually used "the general to inspect the surrounding terrain", but as long as time goes by, the fool will also realize that something is wrong.
Li Shun seemed to have an inexplicable hostility towards He Mulan after Juqu Muqian disappeared, and the arrival of Lu Shuihu exacerbated the conflict between the two. It's hard to imagine what will happen if Li Shun finds out that He Mulan is not there, at least he will definitely have it in the previous book.
They didn't worry about Li Shunshen's own general, because no one could compare to the general's holy family. What they worry about is that Li Shun is afraid that the world will not be in chaos, which will lead to the instability of the military in the end.
Once a mutiny in the army is very terrifying, Luo Hun is someone who has experienced camp roars, and naturally he doesn't want to hope for any trouble.
Li Shun's problem has not been solved, and troublesome things have come again.
"What should I do? This document must be written, otherwise, how would the county towns along the road know in advance that we are here?" Na Luohun took the official letter and began to worry.
"Don't look at me! I can't read!"
Na Luohun's biggest pain is that he is illiterate. It was okay to fight in Montenegro before, but once he became a personal guard, he had a lot of official business contacts, and he didn't even know who sent it.
Na Luohun looked at Yuan Fang and Chen Jie with expectant eyes. Chen Jie waved his hands again and again, "The seal of the general is with me, but I dare not forge official letters!"
Yuan Fang also shook his head.
"Let's not say that I am guilty and can't do this. Moreover, I am left-handed, and the difference between my hands is too great to imitate the general's handwriting."
"It's just an ordinary letter, and it's not an imperial decree!" Zheng Zong, who was pushed to the side, boldly picked up the original official letters and read them, and immediately rolled up his sleeves.
"Just write it in the whole format, right? The general's words have no character, and it is easy to copy."
"you… "
"Can you do it!"
Yuan Fang and others looked at Zheng Zong with complicated expressions, especially Chen Jie, with disbelief on their faces.
"I am Sheren! Sheren is to draft edicts and write unimportant official letters for His Majesty." Zheng Zong seemed to be familiar with doing this. Immediately started writing.
About a quarter of an hour later, Zheng Zong blew the ink and pressed the letter with a paperweight. Everyone stretched their heads over to take a look, and everyone was amazed.
"It's like! No, it's almost the same!"
"The writing is also decent!"
Zheng Zong squinted at Chen Jie triumphantly, "It's just an imitation of handwriting, the general is not a scholar, and there are ready-made official letters to follow, so it won't be seen through. Chen Jie, get a seal. !"
"You still have some use!"
Chen Jie glared at Zheng Zong, and muttered, he took out two seals, one large and one small, from the mailbox of the big tent, and stamped them on the end of the official letter.
"I also said that it wasn't a forgery of imperial edicts. It was as if you were asked to forge imperial edicts. It's really imperial edicts. Would you dare to imitate them again?"
Zheng Zongke didn't care what he said, just laying on the desk and blowing the wet ink and ink pad, Yuan Fang baked the varnish, waited for the ink to dry, and put it in the box of the Hu Ben Army to seal the lacquer directly. Take a long breath.
"This is no problem, just give it to the commander directly when Li Shun sends someone to come."
Yuan Fang handed the box to Na Luohun.
"The next thing is, who will bring the whole army to practice today..."
General Wang didn't come, and there were always vacancies for the training captains. The Hu Ben Army had always been trained by Yuan Po Qiang and He Mulan in turn, and today it was He Mulan's turn.
Because Master Cixin said before that He Mulan had better consume more physical strength, so the days of He Mulan's training became a nightmare for the Hu Ben Army. It was fine during the march. It's just howling.
Who doesn't want to have a good day to rest and relax on a long journey? How many soldiers are begging for rain every day along the way.
It was raining after all, I am afraid that I will be stationed for a few days, but today it is cloudy, and the routine practice of hiding is impossible to escape.
Speaking of this, everyone looked at Man Gu who was sitting beside him.
Before Man Gu was demoted to a personal soldier due to sin, He Mulan and others were tortured by him. Yuan Fang is purely a weak chicken, and only Mangu can do it in a circle.
And Man Gu looks rough, and no one would think that he was lying.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Man Gu stood up helplessly.
"Okay, okay, I'm going to fool the generals and say that the general will see if the rain ahead has ruined the road. Anyway, these little bastards must be very happy when they hear that the general will not come today. There should be few fools who care about the general's reason. Not coming."
Man Gu stretched his waist, picked up a slap and walked out.
"The Tiantai Army..." Yuan Fang looked at Gai Wu and couldn't help but said worriedly, "There must be no more trouble in the past few days, or Li Shun will definitely come to find the general."
"Don't worry, I have already said hello to Lunaruo." Gai Wu responded uncomfortably, "It was my fault a few days ago, I have made it clear to them. They have their own measures..."
"General Naluo, Lu Shuihu and Beiliang's envoys are fighting!"
"What are you doing!"
Yuan Fang stared at Gai Wu in amazement.
"Didn't you say you were measured?"
Gai Wu's face was also dark, and he immediately rushed out of the camp while holding down his double knives.
"I gonna go see!"
"What should I do, the general has only been gone for a day..."
Chen Jie covered his face in pain.
"I can't stand it at all!"
"If you can't stand it, you have to stand it! If you can't even see it, it's a bad thing. Everyone knows that you follow the lord all day long, and you are inseparable."
Yuan Fang fiercely told Chen Jie: "Not only do you have to hold on, you have to be as happy as usual. If you have nothing to do, take out the general's shoes and armor and wipe them, making it look like you are busy. !"
"It's raining heavily..."
"I'm going! I'm going!"
Zheng Zong was eager to try.
"roll!"
"roll!"
Zheng Zong shivered when he was scolded, and then shrunk down again.
"I hope the sky will be clear now. If the sky is clear, the lord will come back if he doesn't come back." Yuan Fang looked at the sky outside the tent and shook his head.
"Fortunately, the lord took gold and silver with him when he went out, otherwise I would have to worry about how he would live outside."
***
Xiu'an County.
The reporter was, of course, the right and left neighbors of the owner of the house.
Although this family doesn't get along very well with the left and right, suddenly a ferocious stranger came in, kicked the door of the house and never came out, and everyone would report to the official.
Although this place is like a slum, it is in the county town after all. It is not a trivial matter to see murderers and arsonists in the city. Therefore, the yamen from the whole county government rushed out of their nests to surround the place, just to prevent the "criminals" from doing anything. Excessive things.
He Mulan and Cixin were inexplicably regarded as "prisoners" and "demon monks", and it was naturally impossible to admit them. In particular, He Mulan went to prison once, and the result of that time was really not very good. As a result, He Mulan didn't have a good impression of all the prisons, and she didn't want to go in.
Fortunately, the talisman on He Mulan's body was made of copper, and it was not handed over to Master Cixin as gold, silver, pearl and jade. Seeing that the officials wanted to make things difficult for He Mulan, He Mulan showed the talisman on her body and had no choice but to show herself. identity of.

Showing his identity would not exonerate him, unless He Mulan was the emperor. Those officials of the county government are still somewhat responsible people. They didn't completely believe what He Mulan said because she showed the talisman, but their attitude was not so bad, and they could endure their impatience and go to Master Cixin. Ask the next door for gruel to feed the baby.
In this era, the judgment of a case is "guilt determination", which is to first confirm the guilt of the person, and then collect evidence that he is not drunk and prove that the prisoner will be cleared of the crime until the prisoner is acquitted.
Ci Xin's sanity was no longer so slack at this time, and his arms and lower limbs also regained consciousness, and he began to talk about what happened to him one after another.
In the afternoon, when Ci Xin was out for alms, he was indeed invited by the man of the family to see the children at home. Because most monks in this era knew some medical skills, Ci Xin just hesitated a little and went.
This child's problem is caused by lack of milk for a long time and not enough to eat. According to modern saying, it is pneumonia caused by malnutrition. This disease can only be cured by letting him eat and drink enough. of death.
When Ai Ran was discarded, she was also malnourished, so Ci was moved with compassion and took some of the food she had obtained today to cook for the children. I wonder if the host saw the He Mu in his sack. The gold and silver that Lan put in was temporarily malicious. All in all, while loving the child, there was a sudden pain in the back of his head, and he didn't know anything.
That's why Ci Xin said, "The heart is like a robber." He was just a temporary act of kindness, but he almost lost his life. Fortunately, the male owner of this family is not crazy, he didn't kill Ci Xin directly, otherwise it would not just be as simple as losing his belongings.
At this time, the hostess was also awakened by Cixin and smoked with absinthe. This woman was very timid and had been ill for a long time. When pressed by several officers with a vicious attitude, she said everything.
What Ci Xin said was right at all, the man knocked Ci Xin unconscious, looted everything on him, including the copper bowl, and then left a sentence, "I really can't feed you guys", that's all. left the house.
Since he left alone and didn't bring anything with him, the neighbors on the left and right didn't notice when he went out, and the hostess was worried and scared, and because of the puerperal fever, he didn't have the strength to walk out of the room, so he just fished it out. The child kept crying and crying until He Mulan came to find compassion.
When the officers present heard that "robbery" was involved, the hostess was the witness, and the case could be solved basically without a trial. The number of robbery involved was not small. The yamen with quick legs went out to give orders, memorized the characteristics of the prisoner in detail, and went to the city gate officer to inquire, wanting to search for the male owner of the house.
The city gate has been closed for a long time. If the man hadn't left the city, it would be fine, but sooner or later he would be arrested. If he had already left the city, it would be more difficult to find it along the way, and the money would never come back.
The whole thing made people sigh, "Poor people must have something to hate." In the face of the abandoned sick wife and weak children, even if He Mulan was the master of suffering, there was no way to force their mother and son.
I think that disgusting man is also convinced that Master Cixin is a good person, so he did such a heinous thing.
I don't know when it started, "good people" has become synonymous with deceiving.
"General Hua, I'm really sorry, I originally wanted to take your things, and then I deliberately let you spend a few days alone with no money. After understanding the world, you can only be born and then re-enter the world. Who would have expected a poor monk? A momentary negligence…”
He smiled wryly and touched his empty waist.
Who would have thought that a middle-aged man with a sullen face and a stubborn expression would have such a big ruthlessness
"This time... I'm afraid I really need to..."
He Mulan felt so blocked, her chest was so blocked that she could barely breathe.
Whether it was the woman who had puerperal fever, the skinny child with a pale face and a thin body, or even the whole hut covered with straw, it was like a big net, and she didn't know how to cover it.
The deviants also asked her, intentionally or unintentionally, how much money was lost, how much gold, how much silver, how much jade and how many beads, what are you doing here, where are you going, and whether you are passing by...
"Master Cixin, I came out to relax, but now I feel even more uncomfortable..."
He Mulan looked at the child who had closed his eyes to sleep, and sat on the ground weakly.
"Not for the money, but for this twisted humanity."
"Amitabha..."
Ci Xin gently patted the child in her arms, letting He Mulan see the sleeping face of the child sleeping soundly because she was full.
"At least he's alive."
He Mulan raised her eyes.
"General Hua, you originally came out to see the world after you left the barracks, and that's what you see now." Ci Xin lowered her eyes, "I went from east to west, from south to north, never Be able to laugh one day. You have never seen a mass grave outside the city, there are children like this, I don't know how many, some have been thrown out without even dying. My second disciple is obsessed, It's the undead that I picked up when I went out and overrun."
"General Hua, the army may be cruel, but it's still a paradise..."
Compassion in his eyes.
"Outside, is the real hell on earth."
