Chapter 404: Light the window lattice
Then, Zhang Bai manipulated the magic to deliberately guide the memories of these bandits to let them recall where their hometown was?
In the memories of most bandits, there is a small island in Taihu Lake. The island is surrounded by small sampans, and there are sparse wooden fences and thatched houses on the island.
This scene seems to indicate that the nest of the Taihu Mountain bandits is on an island in Taihu Lake.
But in another person's memory, the old nest is in the mountains, surrounded by mountains covered with wild forests, and a small village with only a few families is located in the basin.
This seems to be a lair too.
Then, another person's memory was different from others. In his memory, there was a cave. The appearance of the cave was an inconspicuous gap between rocks, but after entering, it was a completely different world.
This is a hand-dug, square tunnel. The tunnel is not long. There is a middle-aged man inside, wielding a pickaxe commonly used by miners. This pickaxe is not made of good iron, so mining is very difficult.
Seeing that he finally knocked off a stone as big as an oval's egg, the man's eyes widened as he held it in his hand.
This is a piece of silver ore with thin golden stripes mixed in the middle. Zhang Bai suddenly thought that this is the legendary divine silver, so the Shanyue people really know such a mine.
He exited the memory of this bandit and observed this bandit in the dream world, and found that this man really looked different from other bandits. Although the difference was not big, this man seemed to be a real Shanyue native.
"Maybe only the indigenous Shanyue people know about this mine, right?" Zhang Bai guessed.
It is very likely that the natives cannot defeat Wu on their own. Only by absorbing Han people who are willing to surrender can they be able to compete with Sun Wu.However, the natives could not fully trust the people who surrendered, so they held back. This was very possible.
He suddenly realized that this so-called Shanyue nation was actually more like an insurgent army that relied on drilling into ravines and fighting guerrillas to resist the state of Wu.
Sure enough, history is always written by the victors.
After understanding Shan Yue's situation, Zhang Bai dragged the corpses of these bandits into a sea of blood and died. It was inconvenient for him to bury the corpses in reality for fear of attracting attention.
In the dead end of the sea of blood, he used the wood magic to restrain the rice and a little earth magic to imitate the Parthian style and built a temporary "Tower of Silence", which was the sky burial platform.
The corpses were neatly arranged at the top of the Tower of Silence.
Crows were flying all over the sky, making an unusual noise.Zhang Bai remembered that many of these crows were dragged into this dream world by him.Wait until the crows in the sky stop and everything returns to nature.
I hope these people can live a stable life without blood on their hands in the next life.
......
The next day, Zhang Bai received news early in the morning that an assassination incident had occurred in Chengdu, and someone had assassinated Shu Emperor Liu Chan.
This kind of news from other countries was told as a joke by the people of Wu State.After tea and dinner, with nothing to do, the good guy told the details of how the assassin committed the murder, how he burned the palace, etc., as vividly as if he had been there.
Zhang Bai was dumbfounded when he heard this. This is called using a big ax in front of Lu Ban's door. Did you know that the assassin is right in front of you?
However, when it comes to information, you can’t just look at the surface. What’s behind it is more interesting.For example, this time, the information spread a bit fast!
This time I traveled from Chengdu to Wu County by the Star Technique, and I arrived almost instantly.This news came immediately after Zhang Bai's trip to Lujiang, which was delayed by more than ten or twenty days.
From Chengdu to here, if you come by waterway or land, the speed is quite fast, a bit abnormally fast.
Zhang Bai suddenly felt a little cold all over his body, as if someone was blowing cold wind on the back of his neck.
"Did the Blood Underworld Sect come again?"
He composed himself, calmed down and thought, since the news arrived so late, it meant that no one in the Blood Underworld Sect knew how to use the Star Technique.
Reminiscing that the Blood Ming Sect often had to use teleportation tokens, Zhang Bai felt that this speculation was reliable.
This can be considered a good thing, as Star Technique is his important escape route.
In addition, it is not necessarily that he is being tracked. It may also be because the news of Liu Chan's assassination was so explosive that it spread quickly.
There is no need to be too sensitive at the moment. Even if the Xue Ming Sect discovers that he is in the Kingdom of Wu, it doesn't matter. He will just use the trick to lure them away from the mountain and attract them here. Then he can take advantage of the chaos to return to the Kingdom of Shu and show off his skills in the southern and northern wars.
After figuring this section out, Zhang Bai was no longer afraid.
It was the second brother Zhang Zhi who troubled Zhang Bai even more, because he came to protect the matchmaker again.
"Third brother, I have good news for you. My brother has made the decision today. The matchmaker has gone to the Lu family. The Lu family has agreed to consider it. The marriage is almost finalized!"
Zhang Zhi's words made Zhang Bailei panic.
"No...Second brother, how come this matter has been settled? I..."
"Stop talking, this is what elder brother has decided. Even if you don't like it, you can't refuse. How can we, a wealthy family like us, marry an ordinary woman? How will the Zhang family behave in the future?"
"Mu Jing is not an ordinary person..."
"But he is not a nobleman. Listen to my brother, the world is like this, and it will not work if you refuse to accept it. After you marry a wife, you can accept the woman into the house. My brother will definitely help you take care of it."
Zhang Bai was embarrassed, "Mu Jing is kind to me, I can't be that dishonest person."
Zhang Zhi straightened his face when he heard this, "Then the eldest brother's promise is not a matter of faith? Doesn't the face of our Zhang family count? You can't be selfish, this is also a matter of faith."
Zhang Bai didn't know how to answer these words for a while. The ancients, especially before the Wei and Jin Dynasties, had a very weak concept of what people are for me.Generally speaking, "I" is just a part of the group I belong to, and this group is the "family" and "clan".
Therefore, one person's faith could never override the group at that time.
There was no way to explain this to Zhang Zhi for a while.That's why Zhang Bai didn't know how to answer.
Seeing that Zhang Bai was speechless, Zhang Zhi thought that Zhang Bai had compromised. He was secretly happy, so he turned away and laughed.
"You're still young and thin-skinned. It's okay! Obediently get married. I'll go talk to that woman when the time comes. Since she's kind to you, our Zhang family can't treat her badly. We'll give her a betrothal gift to the best, just like a guard of honor. It won’t be any less, so you can rest assured that she will come as she pleases.”
Zhang Bai was completely speechless.
After Zhang Zhi left, Zhang Bai sat down and felt worried. It seemed that he had no choice but to run away.
What excuse should I come up with to run away?He originally only came here to meet his family in this life and then return to Shu Kingdom, but he didn't expect to cause such a trouble.
It's not okay to leave without saying goodbye, it would cause too much trouble for the family.However, you must go.
What an excuse!There are not many that I can think of at the moment.
First, he made it clear that he had a future in the Shu Kingdom and directly showed his unwillingness to develop in the Wu Kingdom. However, this trick had already been used on Zhang Zhi, and the effect was insignificant.
The second is to use the excuse of Shanyue water bandits to cause trouble. He can recruit a team of soldiers to kill the bandits and then take the opportunity to escape.
However, privately recruiting and sending out troops is not a serious crime at this time, but it will definitely attract attention, and it does not seem appropriate.
Think again, think carefully!
