Wind and Rain Empire

Chongqing government office study room

The prefect Sun Zhineng was writing at the desk when a servant ran in to report

"My lord, General Lan and his party are back."

Sun Zhineng bowed his head and continued writing

"Oh, got it"

He suddenly reacted and raised his head, stood up, excited

"What? Say it again!"

the servant repeated

"General Lan and his party are back"

Sun Zhineng went up to the servant and asked

"Didn't they go to that haunted place before? Why did they come back? Did they really go?"

"I heard from Lao Xu, who was driving the car, that he did indeed go."

Sun Zhineng hurriedly asked

"Then where are they now?"

"Just waiting in the hall"

Sun Zhineng rushed out to greet him

In the hall of the government office, Lan Xueyi and his group sat on chairs and waited. The servant left after serving tea and water.

Sun Zhineng walked out from the side door into the inner hall, and bowed his hands to Lan Xueyi, Lan Xueyi and his group stood up, and bowed their hands to Sun Zhineng

Sun Zhineng looked at Lan Xueyi and his group in disgrace, and cupped his hands

"The general has worked hard all the way, how did you get into this?"

Lan Xueyi Road

"It's a long story. I don't know if the magistrate has time to allow us to talk about the ins and outs of the matter slowly."

Sun Zhi can look at Lan Xueyi

"Yes, but I really feel sorry for you, General. Why don't you and your party go to the post to rest first, and I will change your clothes for you, General, and then we can have a long talk after eating and drinking." , what do you think?"

"Since the magistrate's kindness is hard to refuse, Lan can't shirk it, so I will do as you said, my lord."

Sun Zhineng told his servants

"You take General Lan and the others to live in the post house first, and arrange the board and lodging."

The servant bowed his head and answered

"Yes, my lord (walks towards Lan Xueyi) General Lan, please come with me."

Lan Xueyi Chaosun Zhineng

"Then let's go to rest first."

Sun Zhineng nodded repeatedly

"Okay, okay, let's go"

Lan Xueyi and his party left with the servants

Inside the post house

Lan Xueyi and Zi Linglong walked into the room and saw two clean beds

Zi Linglong stretched her arms

"Finally able to calm down for a while"

"Yeah, let's tidy up and have a meal before going to see the magistrate, otherwise it's really not suitable for talking with a dirty body."

The servant walks in the door with the clothes on the tray, facing the blue snow coat

"General Lan, these are clothes given to you by our magistrate. The men's clothes are newly made for our young master and have not been worn yet. The women's clothes are worn by our wife when she was young. I hope you two don't dislike them."

Lan Xueyi took the clothes

"Master Zhifu spent money, thank you Lord Prefect on our behalf (pause) but we still have two other people."

"Master Zhifu took two sets of new military uniforms from the treasury for the two of you to wear first."

"This is very good, thank you, my lord!"

servant hand over

"The little one left first"

Lan Xueyi also surrendered

"Thank you so much"

After seeing the servant leave, Zi Linglong stepped forward to face Lan Xueyi.

"Sister Xueyi, I've been wanting to tell you. I've seen the tomb passage in the palace before, and it's almost exactly the same. Maybe there are other exits from the tomb passage."

Lan Xueyi pondered for a moment, then replied

"Even if there are other exits, those treasures and those people were buried in it after we watched them, and Wanyan Luqi also said that they were also trapped in that tomb, and no exit was found."

Zi Linglong paced around the room

"Perhaps when the ground collapses, a hole will be exposed, and they will be able to escape from the tomb without knowing it."

Lan Xueyi thought about it carefully

"I don't rule out the possibility. When we go to see the magistrate, remind me to tell him about it."

Zi Linglong nodded

Lan Xueyi took off her casual clothes and changed into the new clothes brought by the servants, Zi Linglong also changed

Zi Linglong looked at Lan Xueyi with envious eyes

"Sister Xueyi is really a hanger, she looks good in anything"

Lan Xueyi looked at Zi Linglong

"Why don't you tell me about yourself? I'm used to seeing you wearing purple, but you suddenly changed to light yellow and red, it's really eye-catching."

Zi Linglong looked at Lan Xueyi with a smile

"Okay, okay, let's stop complimenting each other, because no matter what, we never tire of seeing each other, and we praise each other in different ways, which is easy to inflate ourselves"

Lan Xueyi looked at Zi Linglong suspiciously all the time, making Zi Linglong blush

Zi Linglong turned her head shyly and said

"Sister Xueyi, why are you looking at me like that? I'm so embarrassed"

Lan Xueyi's eyes never moved away

"To be honest, since I first met you, I have been wondering how you look so beautiful. No matter how uncle and aunt were born, they can't give birth to your appearance. You have eaten some food since you were a child." what?"

"Sister Xueyi, you're laughing at me again, didn't you just grow up eating the same food as other people's children?"

Lan Xueyi vs Zi Linglong

"Hey, come here, I'll touch your face to see if it's fake, isn't it a painted skin on your face?"

Zi Linglong approaches Lan Xueyi

"How could it be a painted skin!"

Lan Xueyi grabbed Zi Linglong's face, studied it carefully, and then laughed

"It's really not painted skin (let go)"

Zi Linglong looked at Lan Xueyi

Lan Xueyi let go of her hand and asked nervously

"What are you looking at me for? I'm even embarrassed to see it"

Zi Linglong's mischievous tone

"It's nothing, just to let you taste the embarrassment of being looked at by others."

Zhang Tiancheng was already standing at the door at some point, coughing hard

"Cough cough cough cough cough cough cough"

Lan Xueyi looked at Zhang Tiancheng with disdainful eyes

"What's wrong with you, coughing so badly? Do you have tuberculosis?"

Zhang Tiancheng pointed at Lan Xueyi and Zi Linglong

"You two girls, aren't you afraid of being gossiped about? Open the door for such intimacy!"

Lan Xueyi finds it ridiculous

"Among the people I know, the gossip of other people is not as much as that of your family. What do you want to express?"

Zhang Tiancheng stretched out his arms and danced

"What I want to express is that one of you is unmarried and the other is unmarried. You should keep a distance, a distance! Understand?"

Lan Xueyi hugged Zi Linglong

"Why? Our good sisters, cuddle as much as you like, can you control you? You can become a girl if you have the ability!"

Zhang Tiancheng pointed at himself

"What? I turned into a woman? A joke! If I could change, I would have changed a long time ago!"

Zhang Tianyu heard the sound and came over

"What nonsense are you all talking about? Don't go to dinner yet? You still have business to do after dinner."

Lan Xueyi waved his hand

"It's rare to take a break, relax and relax, don't be too serious, you must know that we have just escaped from a life-threatening situation, and if you have the breath to make a joke, hurry up and laugh."

Zhang Tianyu looked at Zhang Tiancheng with a serious face

"Then I'm done laughing, let's go, let's eat"

Zhang Tianyu left first, Zhang Tiancheng followed

Lan Xueyi and Zi Linglong looked at each other and smiled, then followed

Back in the government office of Chongqing, Lan Xueyi and his party wore new clothes and talked with Sun Zhineng, the prefect of Chongqing, in the inner hall

Sun Zhineng asked Lan Xueyi

"General Lan, according to your statement, there is a tomb from the Southern Tang Dynasty?"

Lan Xueyi nods

"exactly"

Sun Zhineng was quite puzzled

"Then why would a tomb be haunted?"

Lan Xueyi's indifferent explanation

"There is a fairly large tomb there, which was discovered by the Jin people. They concluded that there was a treasure there, so they drew it on the map, and there were some air holes in the tomb on the ground, which led the villagers to go to the fields to engage in farming. It will disappear when it is in service, the reason is that it fell into the air hole.”

Sun Zhineng looked puzzled

"What's in that tomb?"

"There is a man, there is a treasure"

Sun Zhineng showed a shocked expression

"Those people are all villagers who fell in?"

Lan Xueyi shook his head

"Not exactly, there are a few golden men who locked up the villagers who fell into the tomb and those who entered the tomb. Firstly, they encouraged them to cooperate, and secondly, because they had been trapped for a long time and ate the villagers as food. The third is to torture them out of the disease, and then go out and release these people in the future, so that the disease will spread among the people and shake the foundation of our Great Song Dynasty."

Sun Zhineng slapped the table and stood up

"These Jin people are simply inhumane! They actually ate the innocent people of our Great Song Dynasty! And let them become the source of infection of the disease! If this infection spreads to the capital, how many innocent people will die, and even threaten If you go to the palace, even the common people will rebel... No, I must report this matter to the imperial court, and suggest that the officials use troops against Jin, and take advantage of Jin's internal and external troubles to catch them by surprise and destroy the country in one fell swoop, so that these beasts disappear on the map!"

"At the same time, Mr. Zhifu, there is one more thing"

Lan Xueyi stood up and said slowly

"and also?"

"The tomb collapsed after we escaped, and it was sealed by water, but this is only one of the entrances and exits. We don't know if the other entrances and exits are intact. I hope you will send someone to investigate thoroughly, so that no one slips through the net. fish, bring the disease out of the ancient tomb, and cause harm to the world"

Sun Zhi can look into the distance

"The officer found out, immediately sent someone to investigate, sealed off the scene, and won't let anyone in or out"

"That's all right...Master Sun, we have to go back and return now."

Sun Zhineng was surprised

"General, aren't you resting in our Chongqing mansion for a few days?"

Lan Xueyi smiles

"No need, we've traveled thousands of miles during this time, and we've had enough rest in the ancient tomb. As soon as the memorial of your lord's petition arrives at the court, the officials may transfer troops, and we have to go back and make preparations immediately."

Sun Zhineng thought about it and nodded.

"Indeed, it will take a few days for the letters here to arrive at the imperial court at the earliest. It will take about these days for you and your party to go back, general. Since you are in a hurry to go back, I will not keep you here."

Lan Xueyi and Sun Zhineng bid farewell to each other, and then the group left the Chongqing government office.

On the way, Zhang Tiancheng walked up to Lan Xueyi, showed a flattering face, and said,

"General, I have good news for you"

Lan Xueyi sneered

"Hmph, what good news do you have?"

Zi Linglong Vs Blue Snowsuit

"Speaking of which, how do we go back here? There is nothing left. The money bag and dry food are in the bag, and now there is only a set of unwashed clothes left in the bag."

Lan Xueyi thought about it in a blink of an eye

"I can only take the ferry on credit first, and then send someone to pay the travel expenses when I arrive at the military camp."

Zhang Tianyu felt a little reluctant

"Then I guess they won't let us on board at all."

Lan Xueyi doesn't care

"Try it first, if it doesn't work, think of another way"

Zhang Tiancheng added

"So I just said I have good news for you"

He took out two gold coins from his belt and showed them to Lan Xueyi

"I stuffed it into the waistband of my suit when I was running for my life, and it fell on the floor when I was changing. It's a pity that I stuffed these two pieces. I just need to stuff more."

Lan Xueyi glanced at the two small gold coins

"Don't think about the gold coins and pots, let's use these two gold coins to buy some dry food and boat tickets to go back."

Zhang Tiancheng quickly put the gold coins into his pocket

"A small piece of gold can buy a lot of things, why do you have to buy it with two pieces? I want to take one back as a souvenir!"

Lan Xueyi looked at him with slight contempt

"Whatever you want, the rest will belong to you, and you will be reimbursed when you go back to buy things"

"Then don't worry about it, just treat it as if I did it for you, General"

Lan Xueyi sighed and looked at Zhang Tiancheng

"No, I don't want to owe you this favor"

Zhang Tiancheng held his mouth shut and turned to Zhang Tianyu depressed

"Tianyu, why do you think she... owes me a favor?"

Zhang Tianyu sighed, shook his head, and patted Zhang Tiancheng on the shoulder

"Don't tell me, I don't want to get involved in these things between you"

Zi Linglong Vs Blue Snowsuit

"Look how good Zhang Tiancheng is, and he knows how to tell you about his gold coins."

Lan Xueyi pulled Zi Linglong into her arms

"Don't mention him to me, he's not arrogant at all. (Learn from Zhang Tiancheng) I want to make a souvenir, a small piece of gold can buy a lot of things (Return to normal tone) A man is worse than a woman in doing things like that ( Look at Zi Linglong) If you picked up the gold coin, what would you say?"

Zi Linglong thought about it

"I will tell you that this is the gold coin I picked up from the grave, and I will give it to you, so, after all, we all need to use it."

"That's right, all three of us would have said the same thing, just Zhang Tiancheng, that stingy guy, that ink blot, do you still remember the rat meat thing?"

Zi Linglong laughed

"I will never forget it (turning point) but you should also understand him. Those are the two gold coins he put his life into. They are very precious, and it is right not to give them away."

"Hey, that's right! Then he just said it clearly, he insisted on giving it or not, it's not airy"

Zi Linglong smiled and shook her head

"Okay, Sister Xueyi, we are just bystanders. Just standing and talking won't hurt your back. Don't mind him. You should feel lucky to be able to go home."
