Chapter 271 Miao Wu
From time to time in the private room, there was the sound of counting chips being turned, until someone pushed the door and came in.

Han Chengxu and the other three hurriedly got up and called out, "Ah Lang."

"Mr. Yining is back, it's been a hard journey."

"I don't dare to say it's hard work. I have bought all the supplies needed for the barracks and are unloading them at the dock at the head of the city. This is the book..."

Li Xia nodded, exchanged a few words with Han Qi'an, then turned to Han Chengxu.

"I'll talk about it later. Mr. Han will help me to see. I was stung by a little girl in Baiyanzhai just now. I didn't notice it at first, but then I gradually felt a little numbness in my fingers. But it only took a while, and now it's gone. .”

Han Qi'an was shocked when he heard the words, and asked, "Is this... a Gu?"

"It's love Gu, I asked Xiong Shi, but I didn't see that girl raised poisonous insects and planted a pot of red flowers."

"These seedlings!"

Han Qi'an frowned, and Yan Yunyun's eyes flashed with worry and curiosity.

They have all heard some anecdotes about Miaojiang, and they already thought that the Miao people were mysterious and weird, so they couldn't help being startled at this moment.

Only Han Chengxu and Li Xia talked in detail for a few more words, and at the end, they smiled.

"Don't panic, it's numb by the flower juice. As Alang said, the seedling girl planted should be a kind of Sanskrit flower. It was named after the 'Maha Manzhu Shahua' in the "Lotus Sutra". This flower is often born in the cemetery. , known as the 'dead man's flower', it has the effect of causing numbness after taking it, also known as the 'spirit-inducing flower', I have treated Qi'an for many years, and I have checked the classics, so I know."

"Manjusawa? The other shore flower?"

"Alang knows too."

"I've heard a little bit."

Li Xia rubbed her fingers and put this trivial matter out of her mind, which was a small answer to the doubts in her heart.

How can there be so many superstitions, but they are just florets used to make anesthetics.

Of course, there are a lot of secrets and anecdotes in Miaojiang, so it's not that simple. This is just the level of an ignorant little girl in Baiyan Miao Village, a mature Miao village that has been soaked in Chinese customs for many years.

Li Xia is not superstitious, but he knows that there are very few mature Miao villages like Baiyan Village in Miao Village.

If there is no mystery, how can it be called the real Miao Village?

As for the Bo people, I'm afraid they are even more superstitious...

"Okay, let's not talk about these things. Now that Mr. Yining is back, the workshops for armor, weapons, gunpowder, medicine and other military supplies should also be opened."

Han Qi'an said: "I haven't been able to find out the specific formula of the porcelain tribulus fireball, but I found out the raw materials of the firearms workshop, and bought Liuhuang, Wohuang, Yanyan, Maru and other things, or I can try to make it. make……"

~~
Li Xia's process of training troops and accumulating strength is nothing more than the four-character description of "step by step".

Building various workshops, making armor, weapons, caltrops, fireballs, etc. does not require him to show any talent, the test is nothing more than the level of the employing people.

The reason why he dared to be so blatant was that Qingfu, a small border county, had been given Li Xia's hands to do anything.

Jiang Chun doesn't care about anything and just waits for promotion; Fang Yankai has no backing, so he is suppressed and has nothing to say.

Not to mention that the news has not yet reached Xuzhou, but it has been passed on. It is said that Zhizhou Shijun is also preparing to be transferred.

Of course, if someone asks, it is still "The memorial to the creation of the Fujun Army has been submitted, and the court will approve it" or "I want to follow the old example of Jiaxuan's creation of the Flying Tiger Army."

All in all, it is busy to stabilize the people and govern the land, train private soldiers, and make armor.

Li Xia made some small innovations in military training.

For example, he intends to teach all soldiers to read and write, and for the time being, they will first know the characters used in general orders; for example, some small ideological education will be carried out every night; for example, after training, all soldiers will learn to perform first aid and wound treatment; For example, each person is equipped with a small bag, which contains various small items such as wound medicine and Zhabu; another example...

He has the memory of later generations, so naturally he has all kinds of small ideas, some are useful, some are not, and some are temporarily unusable until later.

It's nothing more than those routines, so there's no need to repeat them...

Many people have gradually realized that Li Xianwei trained the Qingfu army as elite soldiers.

Everyone is not stupid. This kind of thing can be felt even by looking at the armor, let alone the rigorous daily training. Fortunately, Li Xia has already prepared a reason.

……

"The county lieutenant will be Shu Shuai in the future!"

"General Liu Bai said that the county lieutenant once heard about Yu Shuai from the generals of the Forbidden Army, and his ambition in life is to follow Yu Shuai's example, defend the country and defend the land, and become a 'big hero'."

"Tonight I will say that we too can be heroes..."

At night, Shishi people touched the newly issued armor in the camp, admiring it, but it was a pity that the camp did not allow lighting, so they couldn't try it on for the time being, so they couldn't help whispering about these things.

After a while, a general shouted outside: "Shut up and sleep!"

Yang Ben was lying on the shop with his hands under his pillow, with a slight sneer on his lips.

"Shu Shuai?"

Only he, Yang Ben, is not like those local turtles.Knowing that Li Xia didn't want to be Shu Shuai at all, but a wolf ambition.

Li Xia, the son of Li Yong, had already made it clear what he wanted to do.

He was training elite soldiers, lurking in the southwestern border, waiting for an opportunity... Then he abolished the loyal king and raised a family of children.

Behind Li Xia, there must be hidden high-ranking officials in the court who are unwilling to let the loyal king inherit the rule...

Yang Ben knew that if he wanted to find out the details and find out whether Li Yong came to find Li Xia, he had to get close to Li Xia and lurk day and night.

It is impossible to do this as a soldier, not even as a general.Be a personal soldier, or a guard.

Even if they become detectives like Yu Bing and Song He, they will be led by Li Xia himself.

In short, it is necessary to become a confidant, at least to be appreciated and reused.

For this purpose, Yang Ben showed his talents when he entered the camp. He talked about the military system regulations with eloquence, and he also repeatedly demonstrated the method of using troops in battle.

He was sure, looking at the entire Qingfu camp, no one was more talented than him.

But Li Xia just didn't reuse him.

"There is Bole in the world, and then there is a thousand-mile horse. There are always thousand-mile horses, but Bole does not often have them. Therefore, even though there are famous horses, they are only humiliated by the hands of slaves, and they die in a stable..."

Yang Ben closed his eyes and murmured in his heart, "Where is the chance to get close to Li Xia?"

~~
late at night.

"You are in the underworld, have you seen him?"

Li Xia heard a woman's deep voice asking.

Even in his sleep, he still maintains his rationality, telling himself that he thinks about it every day and dreams at night, so he doesn't need to pay too much attention to it.

It's just a coincidence.

However, by coincidence, he had a faint feeling that the voice was not from a dream.

Opening his eyes, Li Xia was startled.

He suddenly saw a woman with a black veil standing beside his bed.

"you……"

Since rebirth... no, in two lifetimes, Li Xia was almost frightened like this for the first time.

He shrank into the bed subconsciously, and said in surprise, "How did you get in?"

The moonlight shines through the window screens, and there is only a faint light in the room. The woman is wearing a black gauze, only her eyes are frighteningly bright.

"Ashahi... My name is Ashahi, have you seen my husband in the underworld?"

Li Xia didn't speak.

In the dead silence of the room, he could hear his own heart beating.

"You've been to the underworld, haven't you?" Ashahim murmured.

Li Xia only felt his scalp go numb.

Both Xiong Shan and Xiong Shi said that this woman was crazy, and Li Xia also thought so, but she poked his secret...

"How do you know?" he asked.

Ashahim slowly raised her hand, picked up a withered red flower, and said softly: "You are dead, walk by the Wangchuan River and reach the Naihe Bridge, you don't want to forget your past life... Come, hear this Flower, he must be smelling this flower by the river of forgetfulness, only by smelling this flower can he not forget his previous life..."

Li Xia held his breath, his eyes were a little suspicious, but finally turned into calm again.

"Qu Liang, is that you?" A Shahim looked at him, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and the whole person seemed a little surprised.

"Qu Liang, is it you who came back? I saw you a few days ago... Like before us, you seemed to come out of a painting. I put love on you, waved and smiled at you... It was you Tell me you're back, right?"

Li Xia had regained his composure, took out a dagger from under the pillow, and said, "You've got the wrong person."

Even though he was greatly frightened, he still found an explanation for everything in front of him... Asha was delirious, seeing scenes similar to those in the past, he misunderstood and admitted the wrong person.

The withered red flower was twirling in Asha's hands. She smiled with a strange voice, which finally turned into mourning.

"I miss you so much, Qu Liang..."

She leaned forward, seeming to want to be intimate with Li Xia, but was forced back by the blade of the dagger.

"I'm sorry." Li Xia said seriously, "You really have the wrong person."

"You came back from the underworld, you never crossed the River of Forgetfulness." Ashahim murmured, "Your soul just told me this..."

Li Xia thought for a while, and then asked: "If I am indeed reborn, can you help me and make the Miao people obey me?"

Asha did not answer.

Li Xia asked again: "Can I be the general secretary of the Miao people? Datong department."

He has recently devoted himself to rebellion, and he has gradually realized a problem. Since ancient times, rebels have needed some apotheosis, such as "the sky is dead, and the yellow sky will stand", "Great Chu Xing, King Chen Sheng".

And "The Son of the Red Emperor" and "The Birth of King Ming".

Li Xia didn't believe in these things at all, and was even a little disgusted, but realized that it was inevitable to subdue all the tribes in the Southwest...

As if she didn't hear it, Asha turned around and walked out.

She was a little disappointed, maybe because Li Xia's utilitarian attitude was not at all like her Qu Liang, she had already recognized that he was not the reincarnation of her husband.

"As you said, you will be destined for three lives with me... The old spirit on the three-life stone, let alone enjoy the moon and sing the wind. Ashamed lovers go to visit each other, although the opposite sex will last forever in this life..."

~~
"Brother Li."

Han Qiaoer pushed open the door of the small room, rubbed her eyes and came out from the inner room, muttering in a daze, "I heard you."

"Qiaoer, get out of here!"

Li Xia rushed forward in a hurry.

As soon as Asha reached out her hand, Han Qiaoer fell to the ground.

Li Xia rushed forward, hugged Han Qiaoer, and checked for breath, but she passed out.

There is a slightly sweet smell in the air, and fine powder can be seen flying under the moonlight.

Li Xia hurriedly held her breath, and carried Han Qiaoer out of the house.

I saw that Asha had already walked into the courtyard, and two servants at the courtyard gate were fainting on the ground.

Li Xia stared blankly at the black dress floating out of the small courtyard...

With her eyes closed, Han Qiaoer rubbed against his arms, murmuring dreamily like a little milk cat: "Brother Li, how long will it take for me to grow up?"
