Chapter 525 Zuo Qianhu

There is twilight in the sky at night, and the darker the environment, the more obvious it is. However, if you have a lighting tool such as a torch that is brighter than the sky, you will not feel the twilight in the sky. This is because people The sensitivity of the eye to the light of the environment has something to do with...

In ancient times, people from poor families rarely went out at night except for some special occupations, because it was difficult to see meaty food on weekdays, and they could not supplement vitamin A, so they basically had night blindness. It is really black to the blind.

Therefore, few people travel at night.

Unless it is a special occupation, bandits or officers and soldiers.

At this moment, a team was slowly moving forward on the mountain road. They were well-dressed and belonged to the imperial court.

A few big horses lead the way in front, and a horse in the middle is pulling a cart. There is no carriage, only a wooden frame for holding prisoners. On it stands an old man with his hands chained. I don't know if I fell asleep.

Beside the wooden shelf was a man wearing a red simple armor and a black cloak. He checked the condition of the old prisoner from time to time, and seemed to be very concerned about his life...

The man's name is Zuo Xiong, and he is a thousand households of the imperial court. His duty is to station in important prefectures, suppress some rebels and rebels, and maintain local order.

This time Zuo Xiong, as Zuo Qianhu, was ordered by the emperor to escort the minister of rites, Fu Tianchou, who had a "rebellious heart", to Beijing to face the saint, and waited for the emperor to deal with it further. Zuo Xiong was very worried that he would die on the road because of the exhaustion of the boat...

If you do not do things well, you are disobeying the imperial decree. If it is light, the whole family will be beheaded, and if it is serious, the nine clans will be wiped out.

Fu Tianchou hung his hands on the wooden frame. He could only stand bumping on the wooden boards and couldn't sit down at all. Even if he wanted to live, it was a bit difficult for him. At this moment, he was completely relying on the safety of his two daughters, so he forcibly supported him. .

He used to be a governor, and also a minister of the Ministry of Rites. He thought that he could reverse the darkness of the officialdom by himself, but he didn't expect that the rogue officials and thieves had already infiltrated the court, covered the emperor's eyes and ears, and used the emperor's hand to eradicate dissidents and frame Zhongliang...

Thinking of this, Fu Tianchou couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved. When he was young, he studied hard for 15 years, with the world in mind, and wanted to benefit the common people, but in the end he couldn't do anything!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and when he saw the reckless Qianhu who was escorting him, he couldn't help saying angrily: "Don't stare at me, I won't die for the time being! The prestige of the current imperial court has been severely damaged, and it is not trusted by the people, and it is not popular among the people." , it's all you brainless people who don't know how to distinguish between right and wrong, and become the butcher's knife in the hands of treacherous ministers, killing us loyal ministers and righteous men!"

Hearing Fu Tianchou's scolding, Zuo Xiong was silent for a moment, took out the water bag and handed it over: "Master Fu, drink some water to moisten your throat."

He looked at the scars on Fu Tianchou's wrists from the iron cuffs, and sighed in his heart. The court ruled that everything must be done according to the rules, and it was impossible for Fu Tianchou to go to the capital sitting down.

"Master Fu, the grievances and grievances in the court cannot be interfered with by me as a warrior. Usually things are black and white. I... just follow orders, but I guarantee that Lord Fu will be sent to the capital safely."

Fu Tianchou was ostracized and wronged by the court officials. Of course Zuo Xiong knew it, but as he said, no matter how powerful he is, he is just a warrior. There is no problem in going into battle to kill the enemy, but it is impossible to meddle in the court's arrangements...

What he can do is to try his best to seek help from senior officials who are capable of speaking in front of the emperor.

For example, the patriarch Pudu Cihang, who is very popular around the emperor recently, all sacrifices in the palace, the emperor must first ask the patriarch for permission before proceeding. One can imagine how influential it is...

Just then the procession stopped.

The subordinate who opened the way in front turned his horse's head and came over: "Master Qianhu, there is a person blocking the way ahead, the night is windy, I can't see his appearance clearly, so I dare not act rashly!"

Zuo Xiong frowned, and stretched out his hand to press the handle of the knife on the saddle: "I'll go and have a look!"

Riding his horse to the front of the team, he took a closer look, and sure enough there was a man standing in the middle of the mountain road, wearing a long gown, with short hair, not like a scholar, nor like a monk.He shouted loudly: "I am a thousand households of the imperial court, and I am ordered to escort the imperial convicts to Beijing. Who dares to block my way? Do you want to fight against the imperial court?"

The visitor looked Zuo Qianhu's attire up and down carefully, as if he was looking for something, Zuo Qianhu felt very uncomfortable.

The person who came was Chen Shishi. I saw Zuo Qianhu, the most charismatic character in "The Way of the World", with his own eyes. He was indeed very imposing, and his blood was much stronger than that of ordinary people!

He clasped his fists in both hands, and said straight to the point: "Chen Shishi, the poor Taoist, now the world is chaotic, good and evil are difficult to distinguish, gods are not visible, and the underworld is empty. I think Qianhu and Mr. Fu are loyal and courageous. They don't seem to be afraid of power. How about asking the two of you to go down to the underworld to be civil and military judges with living bodies, as usual during the day, and judge cases and slay demons at night?"

In order to avoid misunderstanding, Chen Shishi spoke very quickly, especially the words "with a living body" very hard.

Underworld, isn't that where the dead go?Zuo Qianhu's eyes are better than his subordinates', and Chen Chushi doesn't look like a charlatan. It's late at night, so why not take a rest and see what the other party wants to say...

at this time!

The glass bottle hanging on Chen Shishi's waist suddenly floated up, and a sharp voice came out: "Zuo Qianhu! The poor monk is the court protector of the country, Pudu Cihang. He preached scriptures on the way out of the palace. He mistakenly believed in demons and was killed by him , The soul is sealed in the bottle! Hurry up and kill Yaodao, don't give him time to cast spells, and when he returns to the palace, the poor monk will definitely say a few good words for you in front of the emperor!"

Chen Chuqi: "..."

After Pudu Cihang fought against the old black mountain demon, his vitality was severely injured, and he showed his original shape, becoming a little centipede, half dead.

Seal it in a glass bottle of alcohol, in order to hang its life and prevent it from recovering from its injuries. Chen Chuchu knew that it was not dead, but he didn't know why he kept silent. It turned out that he was waiting for his predestined person...

"Fazhang's voice!"

Zuo Xiong's position is neither high nor low. The emperor has met him a few times from a distance, but the protector of the country has had several close exchanges. The impression is that he is a kind person, with extraordinary conversation, as if there is a Buddha's light shining around him!Zuo Xiong has heard about the fact that Purdue Cihang is going out to preach scriptures for the people of the world...

But he was caught, which he didn't expect.

This strange Taoist Zuo Xiong didn't know him, but he knew Pudu Cihang's special voice. After thinking quickly in his heart, he immediately pulled out a long-handled simple (po) knife from the saddle, and shouted: "Taoist, the speed will kill you! Take off the bottle, or don't blame me for being ruthless!" As soon as the voice came out, the person had arrived, and the tip of the knife had reached the top of Chen Shishi's head, as fast as lightning!

Chen Shishi's two fingers were covered with the golden light spell, and he flicked on the blade of Pu Dao. There was a clanging sound, and his fingers felt numb. Zuo Qianhu's sword was more powerful than imagined!He also wants to compete with this character who is known as the ceiling of martial arts among the characters in "The Way of the World"...

Zuo Xiong saw the Taoist block the blade with two fingers, his heart skipped a beat, the veins in his arms popped up, and he pressed down hard!
Chen Shishi's feet sank directly into the ground to the point where he didn't reach his ankles. The ground around him couldn't bear Zuo Xiong's strength. There was a bang explosion, and stones and mud were everywhere...
