Song Mingyue

Chapter 63
Just when Zhao Hao was about to release Wei Wuzu, he suddenly remembered that he should try to communicate with Xiao Jiu again with the sound transmission talisman.

Click on the sound transmission note, and found that Xiao Jiu is still on the callable list.

"Xiao Jiu, can you hear Mr.

"Sir, I'm Xiaojiu..."

Xiao Jiu's immature voice came from his mind, which made Zhao Hao burst into tears instantly, and tears filled his eyes.

"Sir, we are in a carriage, and the bad guys took us away..."

"What?" Zhao Hao almost jumped up in shock as if he heard a thunderbolt from the blue sky.

"Xiao Jiu, do you know where they went?" Zhao Hao asked anxiously.

"Sir...I don't know...the carriage runs well..." The voice in my head faded away, and finally disappeared.

"Little Nine..."

"Sorry, the target of the sound transmission is no longer within the range of effect, and this sound transmission is over." The voice of the mechanical system answered him.

The opponent has already transferred hundreds of children, and the Yan Gang members who stay here are just a way to get out of their shells. If they really want to kill them, if they can't get evidence, their own group will be bitten by the Zheng family and the Yan Gang.

Zhao Hao couldn't help but gasped.

"Hundreds of boys have been transferred, they are not here, and then use this place as the center, search quickly to see if there is a large group of horses and horses leaving this place and rushing to another place!"

All the conversations between him and Xiaojiu were completed in his mind, and everyone around him didn't know about it, and they all showed doubts.

Even Zhao Dian and Yang Fang were puzzled and looked at Zhao Hao suspiciously.

On the contrary, Fang Qifo suddenly realized, and asked, "Could it be possible, my lord, to find out through sound transmission for thousands of miles?"

Zhao Hao nodded towards Fang Qifo, making everyone more puzzled.

What sound transmission over thousands of miles... the signal range is only ten miles away.

"Officers and soldiers are coming..." Suddenly someone shouted.

Everyone looked up one after another, and sure enough, they could see dust rising up in the distance, and a dark cloud slowly approaching. It turned out that hundreds of Xiang troops were rushing towards this side.

Fang Qifo's face changed drastically in an instant, but Zhao Hao finally restrained himself with a wink, and turned around to signal to Fang Xiang and others who followed him not to move.

The team of soldiers and horses was getting closer and closer, and it was gradually seen that the leader of the army was Wang Hanzhi, the prefect of Jiangning.

Zhao Hao hastily led the crowd to welcome him, and bowed deeply: "My lord is going out in person, Zhao Hao is ashamed of himself!"

Wang Hanzhi laughed: "Young Master Zhao has made great achievements in the Jiangning Mansion. Now that we are in trouble, how can this manor just sit back and watch?"

After finishing speaking, Wang Hanzhi glanced around and asked, "I heard that someone from the Salt Gang came in and out here, how are you going to find out?"

Zhao Hao thought for a moment, and said: "The village in front of us has been found, and people from the Salt Gang are guarding it, but it is inconvenient to enter the village to search."

Wang Hanzhi said: "Since that's the case, you and the government will lead troops into this village to search, and anyone who dares to stop us will be killed!"

"Here!" Zhao Hao replied helplessly.

Although it was purely useless work, in order to eliminate everyone's doubts, I could only bite the bullet and go in to search.

Sure enough, officers and soldiers came.The Salt Gang didn't dare to stop them, they obediently let them in and searched.

The result was as Zhao Hao expected, he didn't even find half of the children, and returned in vain.

Finally, under Zhao Hao's suggestion, the cavalry divided into four groups again, centered on the small village, and searched in all directions.

……

The dusk is heavy, and the setting sun is like blood.

Zhao Hao stood side by side with Wang Hanzhi and Yang Fang, their eyes full of helplessness and hesitation.

A whole half a day passed, and the four groups of people searched the site with a radius of [-] li, but still found nothing. Thousands of Xiang troops also searched the suburbs of Jiangning City, but found no trace.

At this time, a round of bright moon slowly rose from the distance.

On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, spend a good night on the night of the full moon.

Zhao Hao was supposed to appear at the Jinyuan Poetry Club, but now he is standing in the suburbs of Jiangning, helpless.

Suddenly, a group of black shadows appeared in the distance, rushing towards this side quickly, Zhao Dian and others beside Zhao Hao changed their expressions, and the guards also raised their shields and formed an array, ready to fight.

"It's Brother Wang and Cousin." Zhao Hao saw Laiqi clearly and stopped everyone.

The two riders came like the wind, flew down, first paid respects to Wang Hanzhi, and then rushed towards Zhao Hao.

"Brother, you have to do great things again, but you never asked me to wait. You are not loyal enough." Wang Jue and Xie Yu had reproachful expressions on their faces.

Zhao Hao had a wry smile and helplessness all over his face: "Young brother is helpless at this moment..."

As soon as the words finished, Yang Fang who was beside her suddenly turned around, her body trembling slightly.

God, are you kidding me, so many cute boys, are you willing to let them cook medicine?
Since time travelling, Zhao Hao has never been so tormented and helpless as at this moment, and he couldn't help but wailed from the bottom of his heart.

Wang Hanzhi looked at the sky, and sighed slightly: "It's getting late, why don't you meet at the north gate first, and then make a decision..."

All the people who explored the way have returned, and it is really not an option to throw hundreds of people in this wilderness, so Zhao Hao had no choice but to agree.

The sound of horseshoes, the rumbling of wheels, together with the sound of chaotic footsteps, formed a symphony in the night, slowly heading towards the north gate of Jiangning City.

Inside the carriage, Zhao Hao's eyes were lost, and he kept searching with the sound transmission talisman, but his right hand was tightly grasping the jade hand of the person next to him.

cold, weak...

"Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are in the sky, Xiao Jiuji has his own destiny, sister, don't need to panic..." Zhao Hao sighed slightly.

This sentence, even he himself could not believe it.

"Um……"

That weak response hit Zhao Hao's heart like a whip.

Ai Mo was heartbroken, and the person beside him was completely hopeless and heartbroken.

Suddenly, he became furious, lifted the curtain of the car, and shouted sharply: "Stop!"

The handlebar hurriedly stopped the chariot and horses, and the people in front of the chariot looked back at Zhao Hao in confusion.

Since the Xiang army was basically infantry, the horses surrounding Wang Hanzhi were dragged behind, and the riders in front of the chariot were only the generals and slaves of the Zhao Mansion, Xie Mansion, and Wang Mansion, as well as Fang Qifo's men and horses.

Zhao Hao turned his head to look and took a deep breath, with a look of ruthlessness on his face, and said in a low voice, "Old Ghost Zheng An, who has no conscience, uses a hundred boys to refine medicine, the anger of man and god, the punishment of heaven and earth, I I want to lead the crowd into Zheng's mansion. I don't know if you will dare to go with me if you hold that old ghost hostage and order him to hand over all the boys?"

Except for Fang Qifo and his party, everyone turned pale with shock, and there was an uproar.

Rushing to kill Zheng's mansion is a serious crime of beheading. This Mr. Zhao is really whimsical and desperate.

Even Yang Fang, who was behind her, was shocked, and exclaimed coquettishly, "No!"

"Master Fu Zun is in front?"

Just when everyone was in a mess, suddenly a group of black shadows galloped up ahead and asked loudly.

"Master Fuzun is behind, who are you?" Someone asked.

The man stopped answering, but urged the horse under his crotch, increased the speed of the horse to the extreme, and galloped towards this side.

At this time, Wang Hanzhi also heard the movement ahead, and without waiting for anyone to report, he had already urged his horses under his crotch, came out out of the crowd, and chased after him.

The man came galloping on horseback all the way, and everyone stepped aside one after another, only to see that the man saw Wang Hanzhi, turned over and fell off the horse, and said in a hurry: "Your Majesty, Xiaodao is ordered by Master to come and report to the traitors of the Yan Gang." Take away the hiding place of a hundred boys."

As soon as the voice fell, everyone fell silent instantly.

Zhao Hao looked through the moonlight and saw the man wearing Taoist robes, he couldn't help asking: "Who is Ling Shi?"

"My teacher's Taoist name is Aoki, and he is the master of Baiyun Temple."

"what?"

Zhao Hao was in a mess.

The Taoist continued: "Then Zheng An was so shameless that he pestered his teacher to ask for the magic pill for healing. The teacher had no choice but to say casually that the brains of Baizi should be used as medicine to cure diseases, prolong life, and rejuvenate. Originally, it was expected. Gathering a hundred children under the age of five should be extremely difficult, and there is absolutely no reason for success. Unexpectedly, Zheng An was so mad that he actually gathered a hundred children under the age of five. The teacher had no choice but to let us secretly Taking advantage of the carelessness of the guards and thieves, they stole a boy and broke the number of hundreds of them. Unexpectedly, the thief from the Yan Gang captured another boy outside the city, and asked his family teacher to refine medicine for him at midnight... Master couldn't bear the innocent boy's death, so he ordered Xiaodao to report."

Everyone was in chaos again.

That Qingmu Daoist was bluffing and deceiving, but he wanted to get some benefits from the Zheng family, but the Zheng family not only believed it, but also risked the world's displeasure by gathering a hundred children to refine medicine.Others don't know the truth, but Daoist Aoki knows it. I'm afraid he is not worried about hundreds of children dying, but he is worried that he will be exposed after refining the medicine, so he simply asked his disciples to steal a boy two days before the Mid-Autumn Festival.Unexpectedly, the Zheng family had reached the point of madness and hysteria, and sent someone to snatch Xiao Jiu to make up for it. In desperation, Daoist Aoki had no choice but to send someone to report to the official.

The reason behind this, Zhao Hao, Wang Hanzhi, Xie Yu, Wang Jue and others figured it out after careful consideration for a while.

Zhao Hao grabbed the man by the collar and asked with a murderous look on his face, "Where are the hundred boys now?"

"It's in the ghost garden in the west of the city." The Taoist said tremblingly.

Zhao Hao didn't care about greeting Wang Hanzhi, and immediately ordered: "Hurry up and go to the ghost garden in the west of the city, there must be no mistakes!"

PS: The use of brain marrow as medicine really existed in ancient times.

Gao Ce, an eunuch in the Ming Dynasty, heard the words of quack warlocks that eating the brains of a thousand boys can restore sexual ability, so Gao Ce asked his subordinates to disguise themselves as businessmen and go shopping for poor children, and told everyone that the father-in-law of the tax supervisor wanted to help the poor Although the children feel illogical, many people still sell their children to Gao Ce because they are struggling to make ends meet.But after a while, the fire could not be covered with paper, and Gao Ce still leaked the fact that the children he bought were "cracked and brained for food". Seeing that the people at that time were too poor to sell their children, Gao Ce began Insanely sending people everywhere to steal children.According to historical records, the place where Gao Cai lived was "in the pool of the tax office, with white bones and teeth".
