Paper Maker: This is the end of the Ming Dynasty in Liaozhai

Chapter 110 Arriving in Linqing Prefecture for the First Time

Looking down from the cliff, the white natal paper figurines are naturally very conspicuous. Soon, the sound of gongs resounded throughout the village. Dozens of bandits stood on the wooden wall with bows and arrows, and dozens of people held knives and guns. Stand by.

On the mountain road, there are dense traps everywhere. When the natal paper figurine stepped into the mountain road, pieces of grapefruit-sized stones fell from the cliff like raindrops. However, this kind of attack is very fatal to ordinary people. Yu Tieshi's natal paper man can only be regarded as tickling.

Just passing through the rockfall area, the next moment, several trunks with thick arms and sharpened heads came oncoming. The paper figurine couldn't react in time, and was knocked into the air for nearly ten feet. The natal paper man stood up quickly and headed towards the cliff again. As he went up, there were more and more traps, rolling logs, falling rocks, and wooden piles emerged one after another.

And the bandits on the wooden wall saw the white figure as if he was immortal, and no traps could hurt him at all, so they panicked at this moment. They were able to roam around here for several years without being wiped out, relying on these trap.

At the beginning, the county organized hundreds of people to encircle and suppress them, but in the end they were repelled by the trap without even touching the cottage.Now that they encountered a monster that seemed to be immortal, they couldn't help but panic.

"Escape!"

A well-informed bandit shouted: "It's those martial arts masters!"

Hearing this, the other bandits exploded in an instant. They have lived for decades, and they have never heard of anything else. Have you ever heard of the stories told by the older generation? The most important thing is to be chivalrous and righteous, and kill the bandits at every turn. They have met those martial arts masters who are chivalrous and righteous.

puff!
At this time, a thick-backed machete was chopped down, and the bandit who shouted first was cut off in two. At this moment, the panic-stricken bandits were immediately suppressed on the spot, and their eyes were all on the strong man holding the machete. body.

"What are you panicking about!"

Li Dazhu roared angrily: "Isn't it just a brat who doesn't know what to do? There are so many of us, and each of us can drown him with a spit. What kind of shit martial arts master, I will kill him with a single knife!"

"Boss, those traps can't hurt that person at all. If we cut him down with a knife, we might not even be able to cut his skin. It's better to go first."

At this time, an old man in a long robe and with a goatee hurriedly said: "If you keep the green hills, don't worry about running out of firewood. It's impossible for that person to stay here forever. At worst, we'll come back later."

Seeing the old man in long robes talking, the others quickly persuaded him: "Yes, the head of the family, if you keep the green hills, you are not afraid of running out of firewood."

Hearing this, Li Dazhu glanced at the white figure who had passed halfway up the mountain, and could only grit his teeth and said, "Go down the mountain from the back cliff and hide for a while!"

Although doing so would be a great blow to his prestige, but the person below is too evil, and no trap can hurt him. As someone who has spent several years in the martial arts school, he knows very well that his three-legged cat kung fu is definitely not good. For an opponent, even if he relies on a large number of people to kill the opponent, many of his subordinates will definitely die.

These people were all brought together by him through hard work. If many people died, it would be difficult to go down the mountain to loot in the future.

Hearing Li Dazhu's words, the other bandits immediately got off the wooden wall, ran to the back cliff, dragged out a large bundle of thick hemp rope from a small wooden house, and tied one end of the hemp rope to a boulder After that, the others threw off the cliff and chose to build a cottage in this kind of place. Naturally, they would not leave a way out.

At this time, the natal paper figurine had already rushed to the wooden wall, and no one stopped him. The natal paper figurine climbed over the wooden wall with a single force. When he saw the deserted cottage, the natal paper figurine rushed to the left side immediately. Cliff, there is only one way down the mountain here, and he is still guarding it. People in the cottage can only go down the other three cliffs if they want to go.

When the natal paper man chased to the back cliff, more than a hundred bandits had already reached the bottom of the cliff along the hemp rope.

Seeing the white figure on the cliff, the corners of Li Dazhu's mouth raised, and then he put the torch in his hand on the hemp rope, which had already been soaked in kerosene by them. The next moment, the tongue of the torch jumped on the hemp rope!

"let's go!"

Seeing the hemp rope entangled by flames, Li Dazhu shouted loudly, the cliff is more than a hundred feet high, unless the opponent is a bird, or he can only go down the mountain path and chase after him, but by then they would have gone far away up.

But the next moment, a white figure descended from the sky, and before everyone could react, the natal paper figurines swung their knives repeatedly, causing the bandits to fall in a pool of blood.

"paper man!"

At this time, at close range, someone finally recognized the paper figurine, and suddenly shouted in horror: "Ghost!"

clang!
At this time, Li Dazhu slashed at the neck of the natal paper figurine with a thick-backed machete, but unfortunately, the knife didn't even break the paper skin of the natal paper figurine.

There are basically no strong men who can become bandits. Except for a few who have committed crimes and are wanted by the court or have ambitions, most of the others are just ordinary people who have learned the tricks of the crops. After only a moment, more than a hundred The bandits were all down in a pool of blood.

Looking at the towering cliff, the natal paper figurine borrowed strength from the cliff with a paper knife, and returned to the cottage only a moment later. After searching the entire cottage, the natal paper figurine did not find any fish that slipped through the net, but found more than 30 Imprisoned woman.

For these hard-fated women, the natal paper figurines only loosened their shackles, and then left the village. In this era of etiquette and chastity, when these women were taken captive to the mountains, their fate was destined not to be too harsh. Well, even if they can go back to their original home, they may not end well in the rumors.

Staying in the cottage may be their best destination. The wealth left by the bandits was not taken by the natal paper figurines. With these wealth, the strong cottage, and the weapons left by the bandits, these women may be able to live well. better.

.........

Linqing Prefecture.

As one of the five grain warehouses for water transportation, Linqing Prefecture is no less prosperous than Jining Prefecture. The bustling water transportation terminal is crowded with people, and several bustling streets are built around the terminal. There are teahouses, brothels, and theaters. Brick masonry, if it is not small in scale, even Fucheng is not as good as it.

"It really is the lifeblood of the world!"

In a teahouse, a young scholar looked out of the window. The street was full of traffic and people's voices. The scholar was Su Hao after his disguise.

After being suppressed in the deep mountains and old forests for nearly ten days, he returned to Jinan Mansion, and after obtaining the last few layers of inner power of the Pure Yang Wuji Gong from Fang Haichuan, he came to Linqing Prefecture.

In the past ten days, he took four bandit villages and obtained 176 enlightenment points. After maxing out the Yangyuan Jue, there were still 113 points left.

"Guest officers, there are old men from the yamen downstairs to check the road guide. Please, all guest officers, prepare the household registration and road guide documents, so as not to wait for trouble."

At this time, the shopkeeper of the teahouse came over and said.

"Why check again?"

At this time, a middle-aged man dressed as a businessman sitting next to Su Hao muttered: "Didn't you just check at the inn this morning? And how many times have you come here from Jiangnan!"

The man who was sitting with the middle-aged man gave him a tug, and said in a low voice, "If they check it, they will check it. It's not like we don't have one."

Hearing the man's words, Su Hao narrowed his eyes slightly. These people's hands and eyes are as good as the sky, and they can even let the people in the yamen come out every day to check their household registration and directions.

After a while, more than a dozen people in the clothes of government servants walked up to the teahouse, and checked the household registration and directions one by one. Su Hao, who was sitting by the railing, attracted the attention of the government servants. A man dressed as a headhunter Walking up to Su Hao, he knocked on the table: "Household registration, road guide."

Su Hao took out his scholar certificate and household registration documents. Daming has extremely strict restrictions on the movement of people. If you want to go to other places, you have to bring your household registration documents and road guides. The household registration documents can't be used as identity proofs. The main function of the road guide is to prove the authenticity of the road guide, and the road guide is the key to travel. The road guide can only be handled through the county government. Usually, the road guide records most of the traveler's household registration location, name, appearance, and destination. information.

Traveling without a way is a felony, and if you are found out, you will be imprisoned for at least a few years. If there is an unsolved case in the county, you are ready to face it.

And there is no guide, you will not be able to pass through some customs checkpoints, and some cities with strict inspections will not enter, and the inn will not dare to accept you, because the inn will also be responsible for taking in guests without guides.

So things like disguise technique, if you say it’s useless, it’s a little bit, and it’s okay to hide it from acquaintances. His father used disguise technique when he went out, because he was worried that he would offend people and be recognized by acquaintances. After all, heresy warlocks Whether the circle is small or big, the possibility of being recognized is not small.

But if you go to other places, things like disguise are really useless, because no one knows you at all, what people recognize is your household registration and road guides, unless you don’t go to the city, don’t stay in a hotel, don’t buy a house, or even Don't enter other people's villages. In this era, when a stranger enters other people's villages, Lizheng will definitely check your household registration and directions. After all, people are also worried about bandits coming.

As for snatching other people's guides and using disguise techniques to fake them, it can only be said that you are overthinking, because the guides are only one-time, and there are restrictions on going from anywhere to anywhere. Take the road to Jinan, Shandong. If Yin goes to Shanxi or Huguang, then you can only pray that the person who checks Luyin is blind.

Moreover, in ancient times, there were different accents. Most merchants spoke with their own hometown accent, stealing other people's directions. If you don't know this accent, it is easy to be recognized, especially the innkeeper who has been in contact with you all year round. People with three teachings and nine streams can tell it when they hear it, so to grab other people's directions, it can only be said that there is no silver 300 taels here, which is even more attention-grabbing.

He changed his appearance this time just because he didn't want to attract others' attention, and then he would have to check here for an unknown period of time. If he didn't change his appearance often, it would be easy to attract others' attention.

After picking up Su Hao's talent certificate and checking it, the head catcher looked at Su Hao suspiciously: "What are you doing here, a scholar from Shanxi?"

Su Hao asked suspiciously: "Visiting relatives, is there any problem?"

"No."

The head catcher put the household registration documents and the certificate of scholar on the table, and then said: "The remnants of the White Lotus Sect have come here recently, don't stay here if you have nothing to do."

After finishing speaking, the catcher turned around and walked towards the other person.

The remnants of the White Lotus Sect?
Hearing this, Su Hao could only twitch his lips helplessly. This reason is really perfect, there is no flaw at all.

He continued to lean on the railing and watched the crowd below. At this moment, a figure caught Su Hao's attention.

The person he was waiting for is here!
Chi Wei, the leader of the boat gang at Linqingzhou Wharf!

Chuanbang is also the embryonic form of the famous Caobang (Qingbang) 200 years later. According to the setting of the imperial court for the water transport fleet, the water transport fleet has one general transport officer, 200 transport officers under it, and [-] grain transport ships each. Only, each boat has a gang leader and nineteen boat households in charge. In order not to be bullied by people from other places, the boat households will form gangs, so in the past [-] years, each water transport terminal will form one or two boat gangs.

Watching Chi Wei walk by, Su Hao paid the bill graciously, then walked down the street and followed behind Chi Wei.

It is not a simple matter to investigate this kind of case. Although Chi Wei may stay behind, he may not. If he makes a move against Chi Wei, as Chi Wei, he will be the first to be alarmed behind him. people.

So the best way is to follow him, find out his pattern of action, and see if he has left behind. In addition to Chi Wei, there is also the general transport officer of the water transport fleet, because apart from the water transport fleet, not many people can The grain was stolen without anyone noticing.

Grain is the lifeblood of the imperial court, and the imperial court has extremely strict supervision on the granaries. Every entry and exit will be strictly recorded, and different censors will be sent to inspect the water transport several times a year.

It’s okay to be a big mouse who secretly digs grain, but it’s pure nonsense to say that grain is transported from the grain warehouse openly and aboveboard. It has the strength to make all the officials and emperors of the Manchu Dynasty blind, and steal the grain of the fart. Wouldn't it be better to directly train troops to rebel.

In addition to Chi Wei and the general transportation officer of the water transport fleet, there are also foot gang leaders and officials in charge of grain inspection in the water transport granary. About two thousand shi to three thousand shi, that is, more than 200 tons, twenty ships have more than [-] shi of grain.

It takes a lot of hard work to steal once, and it takes a lot of money to manage it up and down. Naturally, it is impossible to steal only one or two hundred shi, or at least a few thousand shi. This requires a lot of manpower, and the water transport fleet It is impossible for such a conspicuous target to ship food off the ship during the day, and if they want to steal food, they can only act in the dark at night.

As he was walking, Su Hao saw Chi Wei walking towards a theater. Seeing this, Su Hao followed closely and walked towards the theater.

"Master Chi, you are here."

As soon as Chi Wei approached the theater, the boy at the door greeted him.

Su Hao bypassed Chi Wei and the boy, walked into the theatre, and sat down at an empty table. After a while, a doctor of tea came over with a big teapot.

Dr. Cha bowed and said, "Guest officer, what do you want?"

"Come to Pot Biluochun, and a few more of your specialty pastries."

Su Hao took out about forty copper coins from his sleeve and put them on the table.

"Guest officer, please wait a moment!"

After collecting the copper coins, Dr. Cha bowed again, then turned and left.

Su Hao ignored Dr. Cha, and just quietly watched the drama on the stage, as if he had been fascinated by the drama on the stage. In fact, he never left the corner of his eyes from Chi Wei who was sitting in the private seat on the second floor.

But he didn't dare to stare at Chi Wei directly. To be the leader of the boat gang, Chi Wei is not a simple role. According to the information Fang Haichuan gave him, Chi Wei's strength is stronger than that of ordinary Jinyiwei Baihu.

Although he was not as good as Shang Haichuan and Zuo Yifeng, he was still much stronger than He Liu. People of this level had extremely sharp perception. If you stared at him, you would definitely be spotted immediately.

After thinking for a while, Su Hao took out a small paper figurine from his hand, held it in his palm, and then forced out a few drops of blood from his fingertips, soaking the small paper figurine.

"Fu Bo, can you attach this little paper man to Chi Wei's shoe, and don't let him find out."

Su Hao said in a low voice, this time the matter is so dangerous, it is natural for him not to bring Fu Bo by his side.

"Don't worry, young master, I won't let him find out."

Fu Bo's voice came from his sleeve, and then a gust of wind swept the little paper figurine in Su Hao's hand and disappeared under the table.

After a while, Su Hao found that the little paper doll appeared on a boy carrying a plate of exquisite cakes, and the boy walked up to the private seat on the second floor with the cakes. Not long after, Su Hao Hao sensed that the little paper figurine stopped somewhere.

"Master, it worked."

At this time, Fu Bo's voice rang in Su Hao's ear.

"Trouble Fubo."

Su Hao nodded. If he can't put the paper figurine on Chi Wei's body, it's not easy to track him. If you want to track an expert of this level, you must at least be at the same level who is proficient in tracking. Only experts can barely do it, and it is impossible to monitor and track for a long time.

After staying in the theater for nearly an hour, Su Hao got up and left. Chi Wei's side had already been monitored by paper figurines. As long as Chi Wei didn't change his shoes, he couldn't escape from his surveillance range.

Next, I have to go to the Lu family and the Li family. It is best to find an opportunity to put a paper man on the patriarch of the two families. As long as I can control their traces, it is not impossible to find evidence .
