The mad concubine of the group loves the world

Chapter 211
On the Xiaolu paddock, the polo match between Dazhou and Danba Qibu is still in full swing.

But in the lower reaches of the Wulie River to the south, there is a group of officers and soldiers escorting a prison cart, slowly heading north.

Their destination is the Senlu Palace.

Surrounded by mountains on both sides of Wulie River, interlaced gullies, high mountains and steep slopes.Only the extremely tenacious pine trees can survive this kind of terrain and water and soil.

The shadow guard in black who was sent to investigate the news just now flew back from the cliff ahead.

He stepped on dry grass all over the ground, and nodded to a slender young man standing with his hands behind his back:
"Third Lord, if you go five miles north, you will reach the Seventeenth Ferry. There are no suspicious people nearby, so you can rest for a while."

"Ah."

The man tightened the plain black cloak on his body, and responded lightly, his eyes still looking at the distant mountains and rocks.

The weather in the north is cold and windy, and if there is no soil, no vegetation will grow.Although there is a thousand-mile pine forest in the Shaolu paddock, there is a pine tree standing on the cliff standing on the side of the bare boulder in front of him.

It is really rare to see tenacity and tenacity in the gloom.

The shadow guard no longer disturbed his master's enjoyment of the beautiful scenery, but turned around and shouted to everyone: "The governor has ordered you to rest where you are."

"Yes!"

After hearing this, the officers and soldiers stopped, placed the prison cart against the stone wall, and ordered people to get water from the river to put firewood on the rack to heat some hot water for the governor and the prisoner.

During the whole process, no one spoke, and everyone performed their duties, taking turns to guard and rest in an orderly manner.

When the water in the pot boiled, the shadow guard who was close to him poured out a bowl and gave it to his master: "Third Master, the water is ready, you can bring in some."

The man turned around, and he was wearing a red official robe embroidered with golden pheasants, with a noble light shining in the black cloak, and a black short knife pinned to the side of the jade belt around his waist.

Under the black gauze hat was a slender and refined face.Although the journey from Shanxi to here was tiring, there was no trace of fatigue on his face except for a warm and jade-like smile.

He took the porcelain bowl, came to the prison car, and handed it inside:

"Senior Brother Cai, drink some water."

The prisoner in the prison car had a broad frame. Although his head was covered with white hair, his face had no wrinkles at all.The prison uniform with several holes was clean and tidy, and the hair on the temples was also neatly combed.

Dazhou has always had a tradition of treating prisoners well, which can be seen from this.

As if he heard someone talking, he stared blankly at the porcelain bowl for a while.

Suddenly, her eyes were bulging, and she poked her head out with her teeth bared: "Hey hey hey~ water~ the water is poisonous~ you want to kill me, I won't drink~ hehehe~"

"I am your junior brother Lu Yunli, senior brother, have you forgotten?"

This is not the first time Lu Yunli explained his background to Cai Cha, but he continued patiently:
"The sage ordered me to be the governor of Shanxi to investigate your case. I promised the teacher that I would bring you to him in its entirety. Five miles away is the Seventeenth Ferry. Someone will meet us there, and we can do it tonight." Face to face in the Senlu Palace, the brother's grievances will definitely be cleared up."

After saying this, Lu Yunli also stared at the water in the porcelain bowl, his eyes were dim.

He was still one step late, otherwise his wife, nephew and niece wouldn't have died.

Even if senior brother Cai Cha is cleared of his crimes, he will not be able to get his wife and children back.

Lu Yunli sighed, and was about to persuade him to drink water, when he heard the horse behind him stop abruptly, and a black-clothed shadow guard came down, whispering in his ear:

"Third Master, there is news from Shuntian Mansion that Jia Dafang, a key witness in the Xianbu case, suffocated to death in prison and was arrested."

"Did you say what was written in his confession?"

"Master He said that the confession is not good for the head of the family, and he will report it as appropriate."

"That's all." Lu Yunli waved his wide sleeves lightly, and the shadow guard stepped back.

He is very clear about the tricks in the prison. Death by suffocation is not drowning, it is nothing more than sticking officials and pressing sandbags.

Confessions are even fabricated by them at will.

Along the way, the shadow guard also told all about the troubles caused by his little sister Lu Wanlan and several brothers.

Although he has been assassinated several times, fortunately, with the protection of most of the shadow guards of the Lu family, and the help of Yan Wang Xiao Yanzhi, he returned safely.

Fortunately, he came back today.

While he was thinking, for some reason, Cai Cha in the prison car suddenly grasped the wooden pole of the prison car with both hands, and roared heart-piercingly with panic all over his face:
"Let Sister Lin and Brother Feng go! I'll go with you!"

"Brother! What's wrong with you!"

Lu Yunli raised his hands to hold his hands, but Cai Cha's hands bound by chains suddenly stretched out from inside the car.Raising his hand, he knocked the bowl of water in his hand to the ground, and with a "crack", scalding hot water was scattered all over the floor along with the broken porcelain.

Cai Cha's heavy snort was heard next to his ears, and there was the clang of the iron chain hitting the wooden pole: "Sister Lin, go away! Go with your mother! Go away! Ahhh!"

But when Lu Yunli looked at the water stains on the ground, his face suddenly became serious.

I saw a yellow birch leaf quietly falling among the dry grass and gravel under my feet.

There are only a few wild pine trees here, how can there be birch leaves?
"There is a situation!"

Following his cold whisper, the officers and soldiers under him immediately drew their knives and rushed over, surrounding the prison car.

At this time, there was only a ray of strong wind howling through the deep valley.

A few withered and yellow birch leaves fell from the sky with the wind.

He looked up and saw a blue whirlwind blowing through the yellow leaves, heading towards the wild pine just now.

In the next second, the sound of "bang bang bang bang" was heard, and a dozen officers and soldiers around them dropped their long knives and fell to the ground clutching their necks.

He leaned over and sniffed: "Dead."

Looking at the neck, there is a thin red line, which is undoubtedly a fatal wound!

They used leaves as hidden weapons to kill people invisible!

"Hahaha! Run! Someone is coming! Hehe~" Cai Cha laughed madly behind him at the right time.

Through the laughter in the prison car, Lu Yunli seemed to be able to hear a humming and booming sound, which gradually became clearer.

"My lord! Could it be a bee?" An officer and soldier asked with a knife.

"This season, it won't be bees."

Lu Yunli raised his thin jaw, and looked at the wild pine tree again.

The scene in front of him made his eyebrows stand coldly. The pine needles on the pine tree seemed to be swept away by the strong wind, and instantly became bald branches. In the blink of an eye, only the vigorous trunk stood on the cliff.

And the pine needles all over the tree have turned into a green vortex, like a dragon or a snake, rushing towards him with a roar, and the sound of humming came from this.

"Prepare for the hard and soft card!"

"Yes!"

The officers and soldiers under his command acted in response, raising their shields and rushing to the front. Their feet moved cleanly, and they erected a shield wall of three people high and ten people wide against the stone wall to protect the prison car.

But the pine needles were sharp, sharp as a knife, and when they fell down like a storm, they hit the front shield, "dangdangdangdang" instantly piercing through the obstacles in front of them.

Even the body of the person holding the shield was not spared.

The hard and soft card in front of him has been pierced with countless holes by pine needles, and the golden light at noon is intertwined into a net in front of Lu Yunli through the holes.Reflected on his face, it seemed to be cut into pieces.

The arrow-like pine needles continued to flow, and the huge momentum pushed the person behind the shield straight to the rock wall behind him, knocking out several pits with a few bangs.

It was about to break the defense.

Lu Yunli was still standing in front of the prison van calmly.

But at this time, there were a few echoes of "ho ho ho" from the other side of the empty valley, an old man with white temples and black robes raised his palm like a red-hot iron hook, and slammed it heavily on the big rock on the top of the mountain. hit.

Thousands of pieces of rubble were like missiles, hitting the blue whirlwind.

Then there was an untimely greeting:

"Ho ho...Mr. Folding Leaf, don't come here without any problems."
