"The inspection censor is coming to Jixian!"
Bai Song sat in the yard, looking at the bronze bird rotating on the roof, with a smile on his lips.
This is a stone thrown into a calm lake. Jixian, which has been peaceful for a long time, is bound to have troubles.
When something happens, some people naturally can't hold it in any longer.
For three days, the people guarding the northern city gate did not see any salt coming in or out.
Bai Song didn't go out when he had nothing to do, so he dug a hole in the backyard.
A large square pond was dug out in three days.
Then he poured dozens of jars of Xiajia wine in the shop into the pool.
For a while, the whole street was filled with the aroma of wine, and no one knew what happened to Xia's shop.
People in the yard don't know why Master Bai is doing these things these days.
Everyone went to the wine pool to get a bowl of wine. Even if they drank to death, there was still no wine left in the pool.
The fine silk I bought earlier was not used to make clothes. It was all stretched out and hung to dry in the yard.
When people arrive in the courtyard, they feel like they have entered a colorful maze, and all they see is silk floating randomly.
"Master Bai, I'm lost!"
Caihe shouted from somewhere.
Bai Song hurried to the top of the building and showed Caihe the way.
After walking for a while, Caihe suddenly shouted: "Master Bai, look behind you! The southeast wind is coming!"
Bai Song was startled. He quickly turned around and looked at the direction in which the wind direction instrument was turning. He smiled helplessly: "The southeast wind is true, but the wind is too weak. I said that the southeast wind will blow this copper bird without turning."
"oh."
"Master Bai! Master Bai!"
Outside the yard, another person shouted.
Bai Song climbed high and could see far away, and saw the person shouting in the alley in the backyard.
Shouldn't that person be watching the goods coming in and out of the city from behind?
You just left not long ago, why are you back?
"Master Bai! There's a situation!"
Bai Song jumped off the roof, chased him out of the yard, grabbed the man and asked urgently: "What's going on?"
"Before the brothers left the city, they saw a team coming out of the Zheng family's house, dragging more than 20 carts of things. The group was sneaky, and the weirdo was also there. It seemed that the weirdo was personally leading the way. Team."
"That weirdo personally led the team? Are you sure you read that correctly?"
"It's absolutely true, you read it right! We think things are too strange, so let me come back and tell Master Bai first."
"Let's go!" Bai Song was shocked, "I'll follow you and have a look."
…
Today was destined to be different. Just after noon, a pair of thirty or so official servants marched out in formation and dispersed the people on the main street without any explanation.
Then, another team came out of the alley not far from Zheng's house, with nearly forty horses dragging more than twenty carts, and slowly advanced under the escort of a group of people. The cart is loaded with heavy objects and wrapped tightly in black cloth.
Zheng Tai'a was at the front of the team with a serious expression.
In front of Zheng Tai'a was the familiar bamboo hat and raincoat.
In the main street, there are no common people, and it is difficult for even a mosquito to enter.
But in the alleys on both sides of the main street, there were also people paying secret attention.
Zheng Tai'a knew this very well, but he didn't care at all.
This is Youzhou, and the Zheng family covers the sky with only one hand. What does it matter if someone has evil intentions?
Anyone who dares to provoke the Zheng family in Youzhou will never end well.
In the alley, the two girls stepped back carefully, exiting from the alley to the next street.
When they reached another street, the two girls breathed a sigh of relief.
These two are the young lady and maid from a branch of the Zheng family.
Zheng Qi's paintings and Dongxiang.
Seeing the scene in the main street, the two girls looked horrified. They stood among the crowds of people on the street, looking at each other without speaking.
But there was only shock in his eyes.
After a long pause, Dongxiang asked tremblingly: "Miss, this is the north gate... and further north, that is... the Turkic Kingdom..."
Just as Dongxiang finished speaking, someone suddenly appeared behind her and covered her mouth.
"Well...well..."
After struggling twice, a stick fell on Dongxiang's head, and she fainted.
Zheng Qihua was startled, turned around and ran away, and ran into someone's arms after just one step.
Zheng Qihua looked up in surprise and was stunned: "Dad..."
…
"Prince, this is the last time."
When the team arrived at the north gate, Zheng Tai'a said in a deep voice to the bamboo hat.
"Don't worry, with this batch of goods, our Khan's army can break through your Tang Dynasty's defense line. When my Khan's army goes south, the land here is ours. And you Zheng family You will be the heroes of our Heavenly Khan. In the future, you will be indispensable for being promoted to a higher position."
Zheng Tai'a frowned and said nothing more.
"Remember, you must find that person! If you can't see that kid's head, prepare your own heads."
Zheng Tai'a frowned. He was the dignified head of the Zheng family, but he was actually being threatened by someone pointing his nose at him.
"Prince, this...this..." The butler on the side came up to smooth things over and said with a smile, "Even the prince can't deal with someone, how can we...how can we...I heard that that person can do magic, and the prince has seen it with his own eyes. As you can see, that person can control the power of thunder, which is not ordinary..."
Under the bamboo hat, a pair of cold eyes were locked on the butler. The butler shivered with fright and almost peed.
"It's just some trivial tricks to scare people. Remember, if you don't see anyone dead within a month, I will come back."
"Prince, don't worry, we will do our best." Zheng Tai'a calmed down his arrogance and kept a smile on his face.
Finally, the evil god left.
Watching the team leave, Zheng Tai'a had a hint of dejection on his face. He shook his head and muttered to himself: "It's easy to invite gods but hard to send them away, hey!"
There was a sigh, and suddenly there was a muffled thunder in the sky.
"boom!"
This sudden thunder made Zheng Tai'a squat on the ground in fright.
It seemed to be an omen for those who felt guilty, and it brought an indescribable shock to Zheng Tai'a's heart.
The housekeeper supported the master and kept saying: "Oh, this is really strange. It's clear day, why is there sudden thunder?"
As he spoke, the butler looked up at the sky.
One second it was clear skies, and the next second the weather turned gloomy.
Everyone seemed to have noticed the abnormal weather, followed by the howling wind, blowing sand and dust all the way, blocking the sky and the sun.
The officials on the street looked around, as if they had never seen such weird weather.
In the convoy leaving the city, the horses were also frightened. All the servants were trying their best to control the horses, but they didn't care about the black cloth that was blown by the wind like a balloon.
When the wind blew out, the sack under the black cloth was faintly visible.
There were little bits of broken salt falling on the ground along the way.
Far away in the same city, Caihe put down the water basin in his hand, stood among the layers of silk, looked at the wind direction above his head, and murmured: "The southeast wind blew the bronze bird... motionless..."
…
"The wind is coming! The southeast wind is coming!"
Hiding outside Beicheng, Bai Song watched the shadows of the trees swaying around him, and then glanced at the black clouds that were about to drift from the sky further away.
The time has come!
The inspection censor was coming, so these people had to rush out of the city before the censor arrived.
This is a great location!
As for Renhe?
Bai Song didn't know how to be harmonious.
But even if people are at odds, he will still take action!
Watching a group of people leaving the city, they were just a bunch of servants of the Zheng family.
The only threat is the Turk!
Before the team had completely left the city, Bai Song had already walked towards the horse at the beginning of the team.
The servants of the Zheng family were controlling the horses that were frightened by the strong wind, and did not even notice anyone approaching.
Bai Song arrived, took the reins, and said with a smile, "I'm here to help you."
The servant thought he was a companion and subconsciously handed the reins to Bai Song.
When he opened his eyes again, he noticed Bai Song.
"Who are you?"
Bai Song smiled and did not answer, but silently controlled the horse to turn around.
The servant felt something was wrong and quickly stopped him: "What are you doing?"
But it was too late now. Bai Song took out the electric shock device and hit the horse's butt.
The taste was worse than a whip from a horse whip.
The horse, which was frightened by the wind, suddenly neighed and jumped forward like a mad cow.
After running for two steps, he bumped directly into a horse behind him.
As a result, the two horses went crazy together, and the horses screamed everywhere. The two horses took the lead and ran rampant.
This caused more horses behind to lose control.
This is a gorgeous chain reaction, turning the originally low-key and quiet team into a lively one.
Once a horse goes crazy, where can humans control it?
In an instant, several people were trampled by horses.
Not to mention the cart being dragged behind it, it was swaying all the way, and the sacks on it fell everywhere at the city gate, and the salt inside was also scattered.
The Turkic prince had just returned from talking to Zheng Tai'a. When he was still in the city, he saw that the team outside the city had become a mess.
"what happened?!"
"I don't know, it seems like the horse was frightened."
"Get the situation under control quickly!"
Zheng Tai'a, who was further behind, hadn't taken a few steps when he heard the commotion behind him and turned around to look.
By chance, a servant came over in a hurry: "Master, it's not good! The horse couldn't control it, and things were scattered all over the ground at the gate of the city!"
Zheng Tai'a's face turned pale and he almost fell to the ground.
Those salts are something that cannot be seen in the light. How about spreading them at the city gate? If someone discovers it, it will definitely spread throughout the city.
When the inspection censor arrives in two days, won't the Zheng family be in disaster?
"Quick, call someone here, we must... we must control the situation."
In a few words, the commotion outside the city gradually affected the teams inside the city.
The queue was too long and there was too much salt to be shipped.
Beichengkou is a mess.
How could the Turkic prince expect such a thing to happen when he was about to leave the city?
The already irritable prince didn't know how to vent his anger. When he saw a frightened horse rushing towards him, he let out a loud shout and punched the horse in the head. His brains flew everywhere in an instant, scaring a servant.
But it was beyond the control of brute force at this moment, and such behavior only made the surrounding horses more chaotic.
"Li Tang is useless! He ruined my good deeds! I want you all to die!"
"Hey, you idiot!"
A familiar voice appeared behind the Turkic prince.
The Turkic prince turned around and saw a man sitting on a cart. In the chaotic world, he was the only one who was extremely quiet and seemed particularly abrupt.
"It's you!"
Bai Song stood on the cart and shouted, "Yes! It's me!"
When the enemy met, he was extremely jealous. The Turkic prince laughed in anger, finally finding a way to vent his anger.
"Hahaha, how dare you come to die!"
After saying that, the Turkic prince punched the city wall with his fist, smashing a hole and breaking a piece of gravel from the top.
Then he rounded his arms and threw them at Bai Song.
This Turkic prince's skill at throwing stones was extraordinary and even harder than ordinary bows and arrows.
People who touch it will die. Bai Song also saw it with his own eyes and had already learned the lesson.
But this time, Bai Song did not dodge or dodge, and the stone instantly hit Bai Song's chest.
The Turkic prince looked disdainful, but gradually turned into shock.
There were no wounds on Bai Song's chest, but he tore off the outer layer of cotton-padded clothes.
There seems to be some lining inside, and the Turkic prince's stones only left a little white mark on the dark lining.
Bai Song looked at his chest and smiled cheerfully: "Kill me? Come and try if you have the guts!"
