"Yes, my Majesty Hei Te Changzhi came here under the order of the Prime Minister!" Hei Te Changzhi spoke Chinese with a slight accent, but it was enough to understand. Wang Wenzuo nodded. It seems that the language was chosen by Onimuro Fuxin. s reason. He asked for a token from the other party, and after confirming his identity, he said, "Let's do this. I'll take you to inspect the goods first, so that you can know that this five hundred thousand yuan is not blackmailing you. It is indeed worth the money!"
Hei Te Changzhi followed Wang Wenzuo with a silent expression. The scene in front of him was familiar yet unfamiliar. The towering city walls, magnificent palaces, and familiar streets, but the pedestrians on the road had changed. He couldn't help but think of the books he had read when he was a child. The words "Bimi Lili" in "The Book of Songs" can't help but make the corners of my eyes sore.
"Wang Canjun, why do you have time to come here today!" The captain guarding the gate was very enthusiastic. He bowed and said in a very affectionate tone: "It's getting late now. Why don't you stay and have a drink together later? Subordinate There are two cans of last year’s wine here, and they taste pretty good!”
"Next time, the Governor has some errands!" Wang Wenzuo took out a wooden sign from his waist: "The Governor has ordered me to take someone to check the warehouse. You bring the account book!"
"Yes, yes!" the captain responded, and while calling for someone to move aside and open the door, he said with a smile: "Wang Canjun, what are you doing above? They suddenly want to check the warehouse!"
"How did I know that I received the order suddenly this morning!"
"Oh!" The captain glanced at Heijia Changzhi: "Who is that person behind you? How come you have never seen it before!"
Wang Wenzuo smiled and said in a low voice: "I heard that he is Liu Governor's man. He used to be away from home. He just returned to Sixian City a few days ago. Brother, don't worry, as long as I'm here, you won't be in trouble!"
The captain guarding the gate was determined and said in a low voice: "You are ready to join the army. I will give you my best wishes later, brother!"
A group of people entered the door. Wang Wenzuo borrowed a lantern, took out the account book, sent away the captain guarding the gate, and smiled at Hei Te Changzhi: "Please follow me!"
Entering the gate of the arsenal, there is a long and narrow corridor. Wang Wenzuo turned the lantern half a circle. Ghost figures lurked in the darkness. The swaying light illuminated the stone slabs under his feet. Two pairs of granite columns appeared on the left and right, extending to Darkness beyond. The partitions between the stone pillars were filled with various weapons and armors. He held the account book and compared it with the numbers on it from time to time, just like a conscientious warehouse manager counting the inventory.
Wang Wenzuo led the way and shuttled between the stone pillars. Hei Te Changzhi followed closely behind him silently. He only felt the coldness and the sound of footsteps echoed in Nuo Da's arsenal. There seemed to be ghosts stationed in those armors, and the footsteps of the living awakened them. They sat side by side, staring at their backs with eyes that could no longer see, ready to draw their swords at any time and chop themselves into pieces.
Suddenly, Wang Wenzuo stopped and the light shone into the darkness. The partitions on both sides were empty. According to the records in the account book, these partitions should be filled with weapons and arrows.
"This bastard!" Wang Wenzuo cursed in a low voice.
"Wang joins the army!" Black Teeth Changzhi's voice broke the silence in the arsenal: "Are you really going to give us all these weapons?"
"Yes!" Wang Wenzuo turned around with a smile on his face: "But it's not me. I don't have this power. It's the person above!"
"These weapons can arm at least 30,000 people!" Hei Te Changzhi said solemnly: "And you and we are mortal enemies!"
"No, you are wrong! Maybe there was a fight between us, but that was only because the emperor ordered us to come here. Now we are going back. Do you want to go on an expedition to the Tang Dynasty for revenge? If so, then we are still enemies! Otherwise I don’t think we are enemies!”
"No!" Hei Te Changzhi showed a wry smile: "Maybe I want revenge, but I don't have the ability! It's lucky that Baekje can recover!"
"That's good, I don't want to continue fighting with you! And we can't withdraw with these gadgets. There are too many and too heavy. And if we bring them back, they will be left in the arsenal to get moldy and rusty. We might as well replace them with some Useful stuff!”
Hei Te Changzhi snorted coldly. He didn't want to say anything more to the greedy person in front of him: "I want to do an inventory so that I can explain to the country when I return!"
Wang Wenzuo made a sign of compliance, stepped aside, handed the lantern to Hei Te Changzhi, and then retreated to the door to wait. About half an hour later, Hei Te Changzhi was seen: "Everything has been counted!"
"Okay! When can you deliver the goods!"
"This has not been decided yet. We must wait until the troops are withdrawn before we can trade, otherwise these weapons may be used by you to deal with us!" Wang Wenzuo smiled: "One more thing, do you know the relic? If you can hand over this, It can be used to pay for goods worth 100,000 yuan!"
"Relic? Are you talking about the one at Maitreya Temple?"
"Yes, I won't hide it from you. This relic is wanted by the people in Chang'an Palace. As long as it is sent to it, it can please the nobles in the palace and avoid the sin! You Baekje are like this now, you want the relic It’s of no use, why not use it to exchange for 100,000 yuan, wouldn’t it be the best of both worlds?”
Hei Te Changzhi looked at Wang Wenzuo, feeling ridiculous in his heart. Thousands of people were struggling on the line of life and death, but the superiors only wanted a relic. Finally, he twisted the corner of his mouth: "That thing is no longer in Baekje." !”
"Where?"
"It's in the hands of the Japanese. Not long ago, the Prime Minister gave the relic to the Japanese commander Anbei Hirafu. Now it's in the hands of the Japanese. I don't know whether it's in Baekje or has been sent back to the Japanese!"
"In the hands of the Japanese?" Wang Wenzuo's frustration was palpable. He shook his head: "We have a clue. The Japanese commander's name is Ampere Hirafu, right?"
"Yes, this man is from a well-known family among the Japanese people. Fuyu Fengzhang married his daughter when he was a hostage in the Japanese country!"
"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Wang Wenzuo glanced at Hei Te Changzhi in surprise. He didn't expect that the other party would take the initiative to provide such important information: "Okay, okay, this is really a favor from you, okay? , you go inside and pick out twenty pieces of armor, and you can consider this as my return gift!"
"Thank you Wang for joining the army!" Hei Te Changzhi finally showed a smile. Although the man in front of him was on the hostile side, he was cheerful and open-minded. He had a rare attraction that made people unable to hate and be wary of him. Perhaps just like him It's the same thing. It was fate that sent him here to fight against it. But now fate lets him leave. Who can go against fate?
"It's just a favor, not worth a word of thanks!" Wang Wenzuo smiled: "By the way, how is Zen Master Huicong's life in Zhouliucheng?"
"Zen Master Huicong?"
"That's the envoy we sent!" Wang Wenzuo looked at Hei Te Changzhi's face and confirmed that the other party didn't know much about this: "He's also my friend!"
