The devil is coming

Chapter 776 Pingxihou Mansion, Blood Fan Li
The handsome flag of Lord Pingxi has been raised, and the army is gathering at Zhennan Pass;
Although the official war has not yet begun, the dark clouds of war have already enveloped this area, and the large-scale mobilization in Jindong cannot be hidden from the eyes of the Chu people.
Therefore, it was the mountains to the south of Zhennanguan and to the west of Zhennanguan that were the first to kick off the fighting. Scouts, scouts, and spies from both sides had already begun a life-and-death struggle in this long and vast area.
……
"call……"
Guo Dong took a sip of water, wiped his mouth, then bent down slightly, staring at the forest in front of him, his expression wrinkled slightly, he put down the water bag and squatted down.
Behind him, there were five or six people dressed as hunters, all of whom were his subordinates.
"Captain Guo, what's wrong?" an old soldier asked curiously.
Guo Dong looked at the old pawn nicknamed Pi Si, licked his lips and said: "There is an evil spirit ahead!"
"..." Pi Si.
To be honest, if Colonel Guo said there were sounds, traces of bonfires, bloodstains, etc., Pi Si wouldn't think it was strange, but he just said that Lao Shizi was evil!
Damn it, are you here to fight or to catch monsters?
Seeing Pi Si's expression, Guo Dong, the school captain, was not displeased either. He was the "golden school captain" personally gifted by the Marquis of Pingxi.
Back then, he had gone from being a civilian to an auxiliary soldier and then to a regular soldier, step by step, coming out of battles one after another. However, his current official status was based on his ability to dig out the ancestral graves of the nobles of the Chu Kingdom and was represented by the Marquis of Pingxi. Sexual figures were commended.
To put it bluntly, his skill is not in fighting on the battlefield, but in robbing tombs.
Of course, doing it secretly is called tomb robbing, but doing it openly is called "taking from the people and using it for the people."
It is a pity that the treasures hidden deep underground have been hidden from the light of day. It is better to dig them out and give them to the Hou Mansion, and then the Hou Mansion can turn them into meals for the students of the society, medicinal materials for the medical clinic, and pensions for the standard households.
After all, he crawled out from among the dead on the battlefield. He took life and death lightly, so he really didn't have those taboos.
After the war against Chu ended, Guo Dong did not have time to relax. He first took in Yan Di's mother and paralyzed brother, and also took in the woman he was engaged to marry and settled down with him. What is the title of Captain? After all, it is an official status personally given by the Marquis. It can be said that it is full of cards.
But Guo Dong did not indulge in the beauty of the harmonious life. He did not have the skills and brains of his good brother Xu An, but after all, he had once raised a large shield to attack the city with others. Although he always thought about his wife and children, But it's not that disappointing after all.
Therefore, after the attack on Chu was over, he took the initiative to hand over a note, hoping that he could continue to use his expertise and contribute to the Hou Mansion.
After many twists and turns, this article finally landed on the case of Mr. Hou Fubei.
Mr. Bei made a review and encouraged Guo Dong to do well and do it boldly, but be careful.
The three families were divided into Jin, which was the final result of the big fish eating the small fish and the small fish eating the shrimp. In fact, there were so many vassals in Jin at that time, and each city and land were equivalent to small princes.
This, the ancestral mausoleum of the Situ family, is naturally not to be touched. After all, the Prince's Palace is still there, and he must leave some dignity for others. In the words of the blind man when he had breakfast, he reported to Lord Zheng in passing: No It is necessary to make Prince Cheng and Pu Yi feel the same.
But the ancient tombs and mausoleums in other places in eastern Shanxi are not so lucky.
After successive battles, the Situ family themselves were huddled in the corner of the palace, trembling with fear. Other families and vassals in the past had also been displaced and even lost news of the war.
No one is taking care of ancestral graves, ancient tombs, etc., and no one even knows where they are.
Guo Dong really took on this responsibility, helping "them" find their ancestors, and then giving their "ancestors" a chance to breathe.
The proceeds from tomb robbing first pass through the Marquis's Mansion, and then their rewards are distributed from the Marquis' Mansion. They do dirty work, but their hands and feet are always very clean.
Perhaps it was true that Guo Dong had no intention of doing anything, and Guo Dong might really have a talent for this industry. After more than a year, although he did not come up with any such rules as "don't touch gold when the rooster crows, the light is extinguished", he did develop a certain skill. Have a good nose.
He doesn't understand Feng Shui and doesn't know how to read geography, but sometimes he puts a pestle there and sniffs it, just like a dog sniffing bones, and he can feel it.
At this moment, he just felt it.
Looking at the terrain ahead and looking at the slopes on both sides, it stands to reason that there should be nests.
Pi Si didn't take it seriously and even felt that he was being blind. Guo Dong was not angry either. In fact, he was transferred from the army list. He had a group of subordinates when he dug the tomb before, but those subordinates were not returning soldiers. Under his control, even though he is the leader, everyone still regards him as their superior;
But Guo Dong's own "relationship" is still in the town of Guanjinshuke in Zhennan.
In later generations, it means that you have been doing business in other places, but your unit is far away, and you have even forgotten it.
Then, the Hou Mansion ordered more troops.
Jinshu Ke's town was second only to the elite of the town led by Liang Cheng, so he transferred many of them. According to the military rolls, Guo Dong also received the notice.
No, Lieutenant Guo, who was still digging graves, felt a little confused when he came to Zhennanguan to report and return to the team.
The Marquis is about to fight,
Just go to the battlefield by yourself,
There is nothing to say about this, and Guo Dong himself can take it for granted. After all, his whole family also lives in Fengxin City, and the Marquis Mansion takes care of them every day, so there is nothing he can't let go of.
But here's the embarrassing thing. As a lieutenant colonel in the army, you ended up alone when you reported?
Under Bu Qu's command, you have to be somewhat good, right?
Yes, there really isn’t one.
Because the group of brothers who followed him to dig graves in the past were not his strict subordinates. It was Mr. Bei who made it easier for him and gave him a group of "capable people". It was impossible to bring that group of people.
But during the distribution, the Shangguan in charge also encountered difficulties.
It's impossible for a school captain to turn around and plug himself into someone's army as a top soldier, right?
In the end, Xu An, Guo Dong's good brother and now Jin Shuke's personal soldier, came forward to help. He selected two old soldiers and paired them with a few new soldiers so that Guo Dong could lead them as a scout team.
Although the fighting between the scouts was extremely fierce, it also depends on the area and the opponent. Guo Dong's team is obviously not in the hottest area. They are mainly catching spies and informing people, so the level of danger is not high.
Therefore, veterans like Pi Si and these new subordinates who were not very familiar with him did not have much respect for the "College Captain".
However, at this moment, the mound in front was suddenly lifted from below.
From inside, two people poked out.
"Oh, great Lord A Ming, I didn't lie to you, this kind of wine is truly delicious."
Cahill said while holding the wine in his arms.
A Ming was noncommittal, and he also had a bulging wine bottle in his hand.
Below is a tomb. The tomb is not large in scale, and the owner of the tomb was not very wealthy during his lifetime. However, the burial objects in the tomb contain a lot of good wine, which is equivalent to sinking in it.
It can only be said that when two greedy vampires face wine, there is really nothing they can't find.
However, they didn't come here to drink.
Now that the war has not officially started, A Ming does not need to be with the Lord all the time. He happens to be bored. In addition, San'er did not come this time, so A Ming simply took over Xue San's business and started with Cahir. Trying your luck in this forest to see if you can hunt the other party's spies is like giving yourself a tooth as a sacrifice.
As a result, the Chu spies didn't find it, but the two men looked for a broken wine jar outside and found this small tomb. The two went in and returned full of wine, and the rest was still kept there, waiting for the war. After it's over, order someone to dig it out.
after coming out,
The two of them drank over the wine and drank sip after sip, enjoying the comfort.
After seeing the appearance of A Ming and the others, Pi Si's eyes widened. While putting away his contempt, under the leadership of his school captain, he surrounded the two A Ming.
A Ming also noticed the approach of these people, but he was still just drinking and did not start in advance.
After all, it was ridiculous enough for me to go out to the tomb to drink today. If I accidentally killed my spies again, it would be unjustifiable. At least, I had to confirm whose family it belonged to.
"Oh, this terrible hunter dress is really stupid." Cahill also noticed it, but he didn't move if A Ming didn't move. He raised his head and took a sip, "I really love this oriental wine. Western winemakers should be lining up to have their asses kicked with my sharp boots!”
Fortunately, the accident did not happen, and there was no need to go through the process of questioning and counter-questioning;
Because Guo Dong recognized A Ming.
During the battle against Chu, Guo Dong met the Marquis several times on the battlefield. Once he ate the watermelon handed to him by the Marquis, and once he was granted a title by the Marquis, the man in front of him stood behind the Marquis.
"I have met... sir."
Only those who have a close relationship with the Hou family know how to call him sir. Obviously, Guo Dong is far from this level.
Pi Si and others were stunned for a moment, then woke up immediately and saluted accordingly.
A Ming hasn't spoken yet,
Cahill spoke first:
"That's good. Just help us go down and take out the wine inside. After the war, the wine can be used to treat wounds. We found it with great difficulty. We have to be careful with our luck."
A Ming hesitated for a moment and did not rebuke Cahill for taking his own initiative.
Guo Dong nodded and said, "I will obey your orders."
"Well, don't worry, there are no hidden weapons and no dark creatures."
"Darkness..." Guo Dongming came to his senses and guessed what the old man was talking about.
Next,
Guo Dong's team began to transport wine jars from the underground tomb.
One jar after another, Cahill watched them carefully, telling them to be careful from time to time. This wine was very precious for treating the wounded.
In fact, the military has always had a tradition of treating wounds with strong alcohol to reduce ulcers. In the army under the Marquis Mansion, military doctors were personally trained by Siniang and formulated regulations, so disinfection was particularly important.
The perfume workshop under the Marquis Mansion, even if it reduces the production of perfume, must also give priority to producing enough alcohol to supply the needs of the battlefield.
After all, money is dead and people are alive. If there are enough living people, more money can be stolen.
Pi Si and the others were not dissatisfied with doing this, because when they went to the tomb for the first time, Guo Dong said that the adult was someone close to the Marquis.
It's not that he is flattering, or that he is trying to achieve anything, but that Lord Pingxi is now the new "god" to these Qiu Ba. People who can stand beside gods are naturally divine.
Cahill was the supervisor during the transportation.
A Ming chose a place far away, leaning against a tree, wrapped in some dead leaves, not taking a nap, but relaxing himself.
There is a saying that my home is where my heart is at ease, but here at A Ming, when my heart desires, there are coffins everywhere.
At this time, five figures appeared in the southwest direction of the cemetery.
The person at the head was wearing a raincoat and a bamboo hat, while the people behind him were wearing Yan Army-style armor.
"Who is this person doing?"
The other party asked first.
Guo Dong happened to be carrying a wine jar with Pi Si, put it down, and patted the dust off his body.
Pi Si's eyes narrowed slightly and he glanced over. The hunters dressed as hunters behind him immediately shut up and did not take the initiative to say hello.
In fact, Pi Si's expression and wink were very obvious, but from another perspective, it looked like an out-and-out tomb robber who was in embarrassment and lost his temper when he was caught by an official.
Cahill sniffed, and he smelled the smell of spices, which was very light and elegant.
The old vampire fled from the West to the East. Although he has all kinds of problems, what is undeniable is his rich life experience.
Guo Dong stepped forward and said, "Master Jun, this war is in chaos, brother, I am just begging for food."
As he said that, he took out some broken silver from his pocket,
"It's a small house, I don't have much to buy, just some jars of wine. I'm worried about how to transport it back."
It’s not that Guo Dong suddenly became enlightened.
In fact,
He still maintained his true colors and did not notice anything strange about this team of "Pao Ze".
The reason why he did not reveal his identity was because he was thinking from the perspective of "A Ming".
Why carry the wine to treat the wounds of the wounded?
Guo Dong didn't believe it.
It was obvious that he was greedy, so this matter should not be made public.
Guo Dong just used his "humanity and sophistication" that he could understand to keep the superiors taboo.
However, because he had robbed tombs in the past year, it was already said that he could not walk anymore. Moreover, Pi Si and his gang were busy in and out of the tomb for a while. After the original hunting clothes were soiled, there were really a few It smells like a rat digging into the ground.
Because of this, after entering and exiting by mistake, the "Pao Ze" on the opposite side believed that they were a group of tomb robbers.
The people on the front line of Zhennanguan, especially in the mountains to the west of it, where Lord Zheng came out with the princess on his back, are extremely complicated.
The refugees in Jin and Chu did not dare to go back for some reason, and they were not willing to go to the other side to live under someone's roof, so they all set up shacks on these hills.
Neither the Hou Mansion nor the Chu people had the energy to clean up this area, at least not until the winner was decided on the frontal battlefield.
In fact, the group of "robes" dressed as soldiers of the Yan army would not have thought that the Yan people's detective horses would not be doing their business, but would be robbing tombs and transporting wine here.
This is simply against common sense, isn’t it?
What a coincidence, what a coincidence.
A Ming was still lying there, his body almost covered with dead leaves. As soon as he lay there, he fell into trance faster than the old monk. He was like a corpse, and his body was not warm. If he didn't move, even an expert would be very It's hard to find him.
Cahill curled up and muttered something in his mind that he couldn't even understand. When the "Senior Yan Soldiers" approached, he sensed a threatening aura.
Obviously, these four soldiers are all masters, not necessarily very high level, but they can definitely kill people, and they must have killed many people.
The one in the raincoat should be the boss.
The man in coir raincoat took off his bamboo hat, looked at Guo Dong, smiled and said:
"You only found wine?"
"Yes, the owner of this tomb is probably a drunkard, and he might have died from drinking."
The man in the coir raincoat didn't even look at the broken silver in Guo Dong's hand. He bent down, stretched out his hand, and slapped the sealing mud open.
Cahill's heart started to bleed, so he opened the bottle like this. What a waste, what a waste. He and Master A Ming had only opened a jar and poured it into the wine bottle.
The smell of wine spreads around, and the taste goes away.
The man in coir raincoat lowered his head,
He sniffed at the mouth of the altar,
Road:
"It's actually peach blossom stuffed wine, which is interesting."
Xiahang's rouge stains Jing's pen;
The fine wines from Wuchuan are the best in Hengzhou.
Peach blossom wine is a specialty of Wuchuan. It produces talented people, beauties, poems and poems, and produces fine wines. It is the best among all summers.
Well, except for the crotch pull of the Qianguo army, everything else seems to be fine.
"Those who can hide peach blossom wine and bury it with them are definitely not ordinary people."
Guo Dong scratched his head and said: "Master Jun, you are a great talent, but I really don't understand at all. If it weren't for you..."
"Stay the wine and get out."
"Hey, hey..."
Guo Dong was a little embarrassed. Can't you take away this damn wine?
The man in the coir raincoat said, "Why, you're not satisfied yet? Then don't blame me for treating you as Chu spies and taking you back to the army for reward."
"No, Master Jun, that..."
Guo Dong gritted his teeth.
I plan to talk it out directly. At worst, I won't involve that adult and just take over the relationship myself.
"May I ask your name, where is the Tanma under the military camp?"
As soon as the military question came out,
Four armored "Soldiers of the Yan Army" immediately stepped forward and held their swords;
The man in coir raincoat turned the bamboo hat in his hand,
As if he thought of something interesting again, a smile appeared on his lips,
Road:
"Someone, under the command of Lord Pingxi, Zheng Fanli."
"..." Cahill.
Cahill said:
"Oh, my god, I dare to ask, which Fan Li are you? Because there are rumors in the world that there are blind Fan Li, female Fan Li and bloody Fan Li under the command of Lord Pingxi."
"Xue Fan Li?" The man in the coir raincoat said with a "haha" smile, "That is Xue Fan Li."
Because he is not blind, nor is he a woman.
Cahill opened his mouth and sighed: "Oh, my God."
No matter how stupid Guo Dong was at this time, he realized that there was something wrong with the identity of the group of "Pao Ze" in front of him. It was no problem that he didn't know him. How could it be possible that the big shot next to the Marquis didn't know the person next to him either?
Guo Dong immediately shouted:
"Come here, take them down..."
"boom!"
Guo Dong was kicked away by the man in raincoat.
A Ming stood up,
He moved forward, reached out, hugged Guo Dong's waist, and put him down. Guo Dong vomited blood and struggled to get up.
A Ming said:
"Pingxihou Mansion, Xue Fanli."
The man in coir raincoat nodded,
road;
"Da Chu, Nian Yao."
