"Sir, we have been brought here."
"Well, you go down."
Lin Guang waved to the two soldiers, and then his eyes fell on Liu Ye behind him.
"I have met Captain Lin. I wonder what the Colonel wants to do with his subordinates?"
Liu Ye cupped his fists and saluted without showing anything unusual.
Since the other party dares to send people to invite him openly, it is impossible for him to do something dirty here. Maybe he just wants to test him.
This is also the reason why Liu Ye dared to come directly.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that he has now mastered the halberd technique.
Even if a fight breaks out, Liu Ye is confident that he will escape unscathed.
“It’s nothing serious, I just heard that Liu Shichang brought back a corpse from outside the city yesterday, and it seems to be related to a barbarian spy.
As the captain guarding the city of Yanmen Pass, I would like to find out the inside story from Liu Shichang. Is it convenient? "
Although Lin Guang used a question, there was a hint of refusal in his tone.
"Reporting to your lord, I have handed the spy's body into the hands of Centurion Chen Mo. I don't know what will happen next."
Liu Ye was as if he was possessed by the movie king at this moment. There was no flaw in either his movements or his demeanor.
What he has to do now is to lower Lin Guang's vigilance as much as possible, so that Lin Guang feels that no one has suspected him yet.
Only in this way will the other party not easily cut off contact with the barbarians, otherwise it will be really difficult to find evidence.
"Oh? Really? I wonder if Liu Shichang still remembers who asked you to leave the city yesterday?"
Lin Guang did not continue to ask, but suddenly changed the topic.
"Of course I remember. If it hadn't been for Colonel Lin's righteous speech yesterday, I'm afraid that my subordinates would have been framed as barbarian spies by now. I have to thank Colonel Lin for rescuing my subordinates from the siege!"
When Liu Ye said this, he bowed deeply.
In the Han Dynasty, where there was no kneeling ceremony, this was already considered a great gift.
Looking at Liu Ye who was bowing and saluting, Lin Guang narrowed his eyes slightly.
He was not sure whether Liu Ye associated Wang Fang with him.
As for the assassination last night, it was just based on the philosophy of preferring to kill the wrong person.
After all, liaison with the barbarians is a major crime against the nine tribes, so no matter how careful you are, you can't be too careful.
But now that I think about it, it's impossible for the other party to associate him with a barbarian spy just by letting him out of the city. This was completely his preconceived idea.
On the contrary, if Liu Ye is really killed, wouldn't there be three hundred taels of silver left in this place?
Anyway, they are looking for a scapegoat, so it doesn't seem to make any difference whether they use Wang Fang's body or Liu Ye's body.
After thinking about this, Lin Guang's murderous intention in his heart instantly dissipated by half, and he helped Liu Ye up with a smile:
"You don't have to be like this, Commander Liu. We are all fellow soldiers guarding the border. How can we let the soldiers feel cold?"
"But since Liu Shichang doesn't know the details of this matter, I will personally visit Captain Zhao Qian another day."
He also needs to know the attitude of the higher-ups in the military towards this matter. Should they stop here or continue the investigation?
If he doesn't understand this, he will have trouble sleeping and eating.
…
Standing at the door of the captain's mansion, Liu Ye let out a long breath.
After this test, the other party should no longer try to assassinate him.
"But where can I find the evidence of collaborating with the enemy and treason?"
If Liu Ye was still in the stage of suspicion before, now it is basically certain that Lin Guang is the barbarian spy!
All that's left is to find evidence and beat the opponent to death. This is also the most difficult step.
"Forget it, haste makes waste. Once a person's greed arises, it is impossible to suppress it. I will wait for the day when you show your weakness."
Liu Ye looked back at the mansion and then strode away.
…
"Shopkeeper, bring me a hundred books with different contents." Liu Ye walked into a bookstore, took out ten dollars and threw it on the counter.
Different from the historical development in previous lives, perhaps because of the existence of literary practice in this world, the papermaking technology far surpassed that of the Han Dynasty in history.
Basically every household can afford white paper, and bookstores can be found everywhere.
Of course, most of the books sold in bookstores are enlightenment books and novels. If you want to read books such as the Four Books and Five Classics that explain the way of saints, you can only go to major academies.
As for the real manuscripts of saints, they are controlled by major families and will not be easily revealed to others.
But these have nothing to do with Liu Ye. Anyway, the achievement [well-read] only requires reading a hundred books, and it does not require specific books to be read. It is possible to read a hundred novels.
In the end, the bookstore owner rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, and finally managed to collect 100 books with different contents, which cost Liu Ye 600 yuan in total.
There's no way around it. This is a border area that's been plagued by wars all year round. It would be nice to have a bookstore. How many more books can you expect?
Back at the military camp, Liu Ye reported to Chen Mo about today's meeting with Lin Guang, mainly to let him communicate with the commander to avoid leaking the news.
Later, Liu Ye came to the stables, where the Dragonborn was usually kept.
Seeing Liu Ye, Longyi snorted excitedly, raised his front hooves and rested them on the guardrail, looking at Liu Ye with aggrieved eyes.
"Good boy, I'll ask you to stay here for now. After I finish handling the matters at hand, I'll buy you a big yard."
Liu Ye touched the dragon's head and comforted him with a smile.
Until Lin Guang's danger is eliminated, he is not suitable to live outside the military camp.
Afterwards, he fed the Dragonborn some fodder, and Liu Ye returned to the camp and started flipping through the books.
Liu Ye flipped through the pages very quickly. It could not be said that he could read ten lines in one glance, but he could describe it as hundreds of lines in one glance. He finished the entire book in less than a minute.
As for the content in the book, to be honest, I really don’t remember much.
I looked at the achievement interface of [Extensive Reading]: 0/100
"Isn't it true?"
Liu Ye was just doing an experiment.
Clearly, there are no loopholes to exploit.
There was no other way, Liu Ye could only read it seriously.
Fortunately, he now has an excellent memory, and with dynamic visual aids, his reading is not too slow.
Five minutes later, Liu Ye closed the page and memorized all the contents of the book in his mind.
Open the task interface again and it has changed to: 1/100.
"Very good, continue!"
Liu Ye was very motivated and read one book after another. By the time the sky darkened outside, Liu Ye had already read half of the books.
Although these are all short stories, they also allowed Liu Ye to learn more about this world, and it was not a waste of time.
Go out for a meal to replenish your energy, and then continue working when you come back.
There are still 50 books left, so try to finish them before 0 o'clock tonight, so as not to take up tomorrow's refresh share.
Anyway, he can see the night as day, so even at night, it does not affect his reading efficiency at all, and he can still read a book in 5 minutes, which is stable.
Even later, Liu Ye had shortened the time to 4 minutes for one book, just for fear of missing the time.
Time passed by, and just when Liu Ye finished reading the last book, two system prompts sounded in his ears almost at the same time.
"Ding! You have read a total of 100 books, achieved the elite achievement [read a lot of books], and received the reward: Wenxin Prototype"
"Ding! Today's achievements have been refreshed"
Liu Ye secretly thought it was dangerous, and then opened the achievement list. The next second, the corners of his mouth began to raise uncontrollably.
