Wu Zheng and Ah Er came to the inn and found that the people who came to the capital with Ah Er this time had a few new faces besides Chuan Gu. One of them was Barton. This person used to see him when he was in Eling Lake. After that, he was the guard of the head of Yifei of the Wazi tribe.
There are five others who have not seen them themselves, or have seen them but have no impression.
When Wu Zheng walked into the inn, Chuan Gu took the lead to stand up, and also pulled Patton beside him and another tribe dressed as a warrior, and walked forward to bow to Wu Zheng.
"Chuan Gu has seen a big head, but can you Zeng Ankang if you haven't seen a big head for a few days?"
Wu Zheng smiled slightly: "It's okay, by the way, who is this brother?"
Wu Zheng pointed to the person he didn't know. Chuan Gu looked back and listened to Patton: "Wow, this is my brother Bajo."
Wu Zheng nodded, and then Ah Er also began to introduce the three shepherd slaves he had brought to Wu Zheng one by one.
There are two Tuyuhun people and three Han people. Needless to say, Patton and Baho are the guards of the heads of Yifei. The other three Han people are Xue Gui, Qin Fei and Cun San.
It’s the first time I heard of Wu Zheng’s surnamed village. It’s worth mentioning that these three were actually comrades-in-arms of Peking Daying, and now they have become prisoners of war and graze together in Wangchuan City. If not by chance, they would go to Wangchuan Er, the city reselling goods, these three people are about to be buried in the ground by their slave owners to feed the ants.
It is the kind that bury the whole person with only one head outside, and then a little bit of sheep blood or chicken blood, attracting the surrounding ants to kill the person alive.
Wu Zheng, who has been in Tuyuhun for so long, naturally heard of such a thing. This kind of punishment is mainly used by slave owners to deal with herders who want to escape. First, the method of death is very painful and inhumane, and second, this deterrent is natural. It was also a leverage, so that the shepherd slaves who wanted to escape dispelled the thoughts in their hearts.
After everyone saw Wu Zheng, Ah Er coaxed everyone out and told Xue Gui and the others to guard the door, then mysteriously took out a black iron box and placed it carefully in front of Wu Zheng.
"Is this what Yin E told you to bring you?"
Ah Er nodded and said: "Yes, the mistress has ordered that this box must be handed over to the young master's hand."
Wu Zheng wanted to open the iron box, but found that the box was pinned, so he reached out to Ah Er and said, "Where is the key?"
Ah Er looked at Wu Zheng blankly and shook his head: "In response to the young master, there is no key. The mistress did not give the key when handing it to the villain. He said that as long as the box is handed over to the young master, the young master will naturally have a way to open it. "
Wu Zheng smiled slightly and said in his heart: "Is that woman testing my wisdom?"
Lifting the iron box, it was quite heavy. I looked at the whole box from left to right and it was polished very finely. At first glance, it came from the hand of the mysterious blacksmith in the Wazi tribe, and Wu Zheng couldn't find one on the whole box. The gap, this craftsmanship is about to catch up with the high-precision machine tools of later generations.
This made Wu Zheng really surprised. Is there really such a craftsman in this era? It is so perfect that the two pieces can be perfectly blended.
Wu Zheng did not believe in evil and carefully searched for the box. Sure enough, the gap still existed, but it was cleverly hidden in the pattern by the clever blacksmith. If you don't look carefully, you really can't see it.
When you find the gap, you know that this box was originally made up of six ancestors. It seems that this should be a chain lock.
Wu Zheng pulled his hands back and forth on every piece, and finally pulled out a hidden pavilion on the first corner with an iron ring engraved with numbers embedded in it.
password? A one-digit password is too simple! But when Wu Zheng tried all nine numbers, the box didn't open.
kidding me? What the hell is this woman? It's convenient for you to give me a key directly.
"What's the expression of this box by Yin E?" Wu Zheng asked Aer.
"Expression?" A Eryi looked at Wu Zheng blankly.
Wu Zheng said, "Is she smiling on her face?"
Ah Er thought for a while and nodded: "In response to the young master, the mistress seemed to be laughing at the time."
"Isn't it the treacherous kind?"
"True? If you return to the young master, this villain doesn't know."
"Needless to say, it must be. That woman must have succeeded in a treacherous trick. I want to see how my jokes are so... (End of this chapter)
