Chapter 683 A Rain
Guo Qishai said: "Are the troops ahead sent by the prince?"

"We were sent by the prince, who are you?"

"I have something to see the prince."

"Who do you think you are, can you see the prince if you want to? Come and arrest him."

A group of people rushed over, trying to arrest people.

Guo Qishuai was about to unleash his qi, when suddenly a father-in-law came over on a horse.

"Stop it, stop it all, are you all blind? This is the person the crown prince wants you to find, Guo Qishuai, the protector of the country."

"What? He is the Lord Protector? The Lord Protector is so young!"

"Don't care about the Duke Hu's youth. If there is no Duke Hu, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would not be able to crush His Royal Highness's conspiracy."

Eunuch Zhang led a group of people to kneel down to Guo Qishui and called him the Protector of the Country.

Guo Qishuai asked those people to speak up.

After Eunuch Zhang and others got up, they said: "His Royal Highness is very worried about the safety of the Huguogong, so he sent three teams out to look for the Huguogong. This old slave is lucky. I met the Huguogong here, and I don't know the Huguogong. Lord, where are those people who hijacked your sister now?"

"The brothers Cheng Tang and Cheng Fang who kidnapped my sister have been killed by me, but their accomplices are still on the cliff. You must seal off the cliff as soon as possible and find those people."

Eunuch Zhang said: "Please rest assured, Lord Protector, we will definitely find those people."

"In addition, those people hid more than 1000 sick people. You must ask about the whereabouts of those people."

"Please don't worry, Lord Protector, this matter is left to the old slave. Please also hurry up to the carriage with Duke Protector and your sister. His Royal Highness is also very worried about Duke Protector."

"Thank you, Eunuch Zhang."

Eunuch Zhang sent one of his men to search for Cheng Tang's accomplices on the cliff, and Eunuch Zhang followed the team back to the capital.

Guo Qishuai was in the carriage and said to Guo Pingping, "Little sister, how are you doing?"

Guo Pingping's forehead was sweating a lot, and her clothes were wet. Guo Qishuai felt that her body was too weak, so he sent her a burst of true energy.

After the zhenqi was conveyed, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Little sister, how do you feel?"

"Brother, I feel much better, did you send me true energy?"

"Just a little bit of anger."

"What? Just a little qi? This qi must be very important to you. You sent it to me. What do you do?"

"To me, this amount of true energy is equivalent to the strength required to move a 50-jin boulder [-] meters forward. It's okay, and it will recover after a while."

"Brother, are you really okay?"

"I am fine."

"I feel better already."

A bolt of lightning from the carriage pierced the sky, illuminating the whole world. The inside of the carriage Guo Qishui was sitting in was also illuminated by lightning. Then there was only a "click" sound, and a thunder exploded to suppress the chaotic footsteps outside. .

Guo Pingping shivered in fright.

Guo Qishuai hurriedly put his arms around her, and said, "Little sister is not afraid, it's just ordinary thunder."

"Brother, it looks like it's going to rain heavily."

"Yes, the dark clouds outside are very dark, and the thunder is loud. I'm afraid it will rain heavily."

"If it rains heavily, what will those people outside do?"

"They'll just be left in the rain."

"Sitting in the carriage, we are naturally not afraid of the heavy rain, but those soldiers..."

"They are the army, and they are people who have received strict training. If the rain can't hold on, how will they go to the battlefield to kill the enemy in the future?"

The rain poured down.

Eunuch Zhang rode a horse, walked to Guo Qishuai's carriage, opened the curtains on the carriage, and said to Guo Qishuai, "Mr. Guo, are you all right?"

"We're fine."

"It's raining heavily outside now, and the soldiers can't even open their eyes. I'm afraid they won't be able to hurry. The old slave wants them to go under the big tree to shelter from the rain. When the rain subsides, we will continue walking. "

Guo Pingping immediately said nervously: "Eunuch Zhang, we must not let the soldiers go under the big tree to shelter from the rain."

"Why is this?"

There was a sound of "click", and there was a sound of thunder, which made the world seem to be collapsing.

Guo Pingping said: "When there is thunder and rain, you can't take shelter under a big tree. This will cause many people to be struck to death by lightning."

"Isn't it safe to be under a big tree? How could it be struck by lightning?"

Eunuch Zhang couldn't hold back and sneezed again.

"Duke Protector, I want someone to drive the carriage under the big tree..."

Guo Qishuai immediately said: "Eunuch Zhang can't, my sister is right, you hurry up and get those people who have hidden under the big tree to come out, otherwise, many people will be struck to death by lightning."

Although Eunuch Zhang didn't believe it, he didn't dare to disobey Duke Huguo's wishes.

He said to those who had already hid under the big tree: "The Lord Protector has an order, everyone come out from under the big tree quickly. It's too dangerous under the big tree, you will be chopped to death."

"Eunuch Zhang, what are you talking about? With such heavy rain and such loud thunder, the safest place is only under the big tree."

"Yes, yes, Eunuch Zhang, if we get caught in the rain, I'm afraid we will get sick."

"Didn't you say that you will be struck by lightning to death under the big tree? Then why am I okay? Why doesn't the thunder strike me?"

"I'd rather be struck to death by lightning than go into the rain."

"His protector is at ease in the carriage, and we just want to avoid the rain for a while, so he doesn't like it."

There was a loud "click", and the branches of a big tree were broken by lightning. When the branches fell, five people were injured.All thirteen soldiers who were taking shelter under the big tree were struck to death by lightning.

The death conditions of those people were too miserable. Several people's hair was split and blown up, and their bodies were as black as coke.

Many soldiers believed Eunuch Zhang's words and ran out from under the big tree.

A few soldiers who ran faster ran under the carriage and got under the shed. Those who ran a little slower could also use the carriage to get on the shed to cover them.

Those who ran the slowest could only surround the carriage.

Eunuch Zhang sneezed and said, "Everyone, don't panic, keep calm, and three or five people can hold together to keep out the rain."

The soldiers quickly formed a group to keep out the rain.

The heavy rain was still falling, and the surrounding rainwater soon gathered into a small river, flowing forward along the road.

A soldier said: "Grandpa Zhang, there seems to be a mass grave in front of us. I heard that last year, a headless general appeared near the mass grave. , killing all [-] people in Zhangjia Village east of the mass grave."

Eunuch Zhang was anxious, and said, "What do you mean by telling me these things?"

"Eunuch Zhang, I heard that the headless general did it on a night of heavy rain that year."

"Later, didn't the imperial court find out all the cases? It was the robbers on the cliff mountain who went to the village to rob food, and asked a robber to pretend to be a headless general. When they robbed food, they encountered tenacious resistance from Zhangjia Village. The robbers were killed and injured a lot, and they became angry out of embarrassment, and then killed all the villagers. This mass grave is the place where the villagers of Zhangjia Village were buried, why? Don’t you know about this?”
