please come back

Two months later, it was already the season of spring, and the sun was so warm that one wanted to get drunk.

Jiang Linyuan stared blankly at the white moss growing at the entrance of the camp, while the little wolf stood beside him and gnawed his paws.

This little wolf has grown to half-grown, and it is gray with white fur, which is really good-looking.Except for Jiang Linyuan, Little Wolf doesn't get close to anyone, especially Xia Heyu.No, after Jiang Linyuan went out and went around for a while, the wolf got into the fight by himself.

When Jiang Linyuan came back, he saw Xia Heyu holding a spear, and the point of the spear was pointing at the little wolf's forehead. The little wolf lowered his front shoulders, bared his teeth fiercely, and made a gesture of about to attack.

Jiang Linyuan let out a long breath, and walked towards Xia Heyu helplessly, "Put down the spear."

"Why don't you take care of it and teach me first?" Xia Heyu said angrily without moving.

"Do you want to be as knowledgeable as it? Can it understand me?" Jiang Linyuan frowned, grabbed the spear from Xia Heyu's hand, put it aside, and waved at the little wolf.Seeing that Xia Heyu's hostility had subsided, the little wolf withdrew his fangs. The wolf rolled his eyes at Xia Heyu and ran away.

Xia Heyu pouted and looked at Jiang Linyuan with displeasure, "It provoked me first, and it dared to bark its teeth at me."

"Hey, it's because of this, you two?" Jiang Linyuan laughed.

Xia Heyu nodded, pulled out the spear beside him, and threw it to a guard at the gate of the camp.

Jiang Linyuan smiled, "It's because you are too idle that you are angry with the wolf."

Xia Heyu nodded again.

"Under General Xia, in my opinion, the white moss has grown, and we can do it tonight." Jiang Linyuan said.

Xia Heyu looked at the white moss beside the tent with a calm expression.

In fact, there are two most ruthless things in this world, one is fire and the other is water.

There is no moon in this night, only a little bit of dim starlight. It was a silence, but it was broken by a few rockets.

When the rocket landed at the base of the city wall, it encountered white moss covered with oily leaves, and the white moss burned instantly.

The fire spread along the base of the wall, and soon surrounded Yizhou City. The flames grew bigger and bigger, and the flames licked upwards along the city wall.

I don't know which Yizhou soldier on the battlements shouted, "The water is gone." The shout instantly tore through the silent night, and the whole Yizhou city became noisy, with those who fetched water, and those who put out the fire.

But in the face of such a huge fire, those efforts to put out the fire were just a drop in the bucket. Even on the city wall, from time to time there would be soldiers screaming and falling down the city wall because of the flames on their bodies, and fell into the flames.

At this time, Xia Heyu and the others were watching coldly from a distance, looking at Yizhou City under the flames, billowing thick smoke rising into the sky, covering the already faint starlight.Xia Heyu stood in the distance and waited for Shi Yizhou to come out and ask for surrender.

It's a pity that after one night, Xia Heyu didn't wait for anyone, but the next morning, he saw a burnt-out Yizhou City.

Spring is full of vitality. Since the first sunrise of the sun, insects and birds have been singing without stopping, but Yizhou City is deadly quiet.

The wooden gate of Yizhou City had already been burnt to a large hole, from which one could see the empty city and wisps of white smoke.

Jiang Linyuan sighed, turned to Xia Heyu and said, "Go and have a look."

Xia Heyu nodded hesitantly, and ordered the soldiers to break out of the camp and walk towards the city of Yizhou.

Before reaching the city, there was a scorching smell. There were patches of scorched earth in front of the city gate, and it was still warm to step on.The city was even more desolate, and there was no one on the wide and long streets.

Xia Heyu opened the door and entered the mansion of Zhou Shi in Yizhou, but found that it was empty inside. It turned out that the history of this state had already packed up his belongings and fled along the secret road after seeing the fire last night, without caring about his soldiers at all. life and death.

Xia Heyu wandered around the mansion, although Yizhou had already been obtained, but he felt a little uncomfortable.Looking at this Yizhou City, the mess is everywhere, and the souls of those who have been abandoned long ago are buried.

Since then, the four prefectures of Qing, Yang, Wan, and Yi have been connected, and Xia and Yu can be regarded as controlling the entire southeast region.

And there was news from the capital that Li Su had increased the amount of taxes, and the price of salt and iron across the country had also increased by more than ten times.Now it was a mess, the high taxes aroused public anger, and disputes broke out all over the world.

However, Xia Heyu wished that the world would be in chaos, so that the court would be overwhelmed, and he would stick to the four southeastern states and watch the tigers fight from the mountain.When they are tired from fighting, they will come out to clean up the mess.

Xia Heyu is worried about another thing now

Ever since they came out of Wanzhou, Xia Heyu hadn't paid the soldiers. In the first few months, these soldiers were busy marching, so the matter of the soldiers' pay was postponed.But now that they have been stationed in Yizhou smoothly, if they don't pay soldiers, the morale of the soldiers will probably be in chaos.

The sum of so much military pay is not a small amount. Although Yizhou is rich with mountains and rivers, after providing rations for so many people, there is nothing left.

That night, Jiang Linyuan mysteriously dragged Xia Heyu and him out of the city, got a hoe from somewhere, and brought Xia Heyu to an open field full of wormwood outside the city.

"This... what is this place?" Xia Heyu looked around and asked Jiang Linyuan.

"A good place." Jiang Linyuan smiled under the moonlight, "It's backed by mountains and surrounded by water, and it's clean, with bright halls and strong water, so it should be considered a treasured land of geomantic omen."

"So what?" Xia Heyu was puzzled.

Jiang Linyuan lowered his voice and said, "Since it is a land of geomantic omen, there should be deep tombs. Since there are deep tombs, there should be treasures."

"What, Tomb Treasure!?" Xia Heyu called out.

Jiang Linyuan quickly covered his mouth, and scolded, "What are you shouting? Are you scared?"

Xia Heyu took Jiang Linyuan's hand and said, "I'm not afraid, but your method is too wicked."

"Then just wait for your soldiers to rebel." Jiang Linyuan tilted his head and persuaded, "There is no country in the world that will not perish, and there is no tomb that will not be dug. Anyway, if you don't steal, someone will come to steal."

Xia Heyu took a deep breath, "I never thought that one day I would do such a thing."

"Stop talking nonsense." Jiang Linyuan said, stuffing the hoe in Xia Heyu's hands, "This is probably the place, you can dig."

Xia Heyu was stunned while holding the hoe, "Then what are you doing?"

"I'll watch you dig." Jiang Linyuan smiled, and stepped aside with his sleeves in his arms.

Xia Heyu glared at him, and waved his hoe reluctantly.Jiang Linyuan watched Xia Heyu wave his hoe clumsily, and tried not to laugh out loud.

After about an hour, Xia Heyu was so tired that his head was drenched in sweat. He had almost searched the wormwood field, but he still didn't find any tombs.Xia Heyu lost his temper, dropped his hoe and sat down on the ground.

Unexpectedly, just sitting like this, the ground under Xia Heyu collapsed with a "boom". If Xia Heyu hadn't reacted in time, he would have slid down the ground along the collapse.

Jiang Linyuan heard the sound and hurried forward, squatting by the entrance of the cave and looking in, Xia Heyu also came over, the two of them pawed at the dark entrance of the cave but couldn't see anything.

"Go down and have a look." After Jiang Linyuan looked at it for a while, he was about to drill in.

"Wait a minute." Xia Heyu quickly grabbed Jiang Linyuan's sleeve, "Are you dying?"

Jiang Linyuan stretched the sleeves in Xia Heyu's hands, but smiled easily, and said, "I'm going down, you can figure it out."

Xia Heyu gritted his teeth, watched Jiang Linyuan sink into the dark hole, glanced at the bright moon hanging in the sky, and got in too.

This cave is a slope. It was narrow at first, but it became wider and wider after that, allowing people to stand up and walk. The cave is surrounded by green bricks, which feel cold to the touch.

The cave was very dark, full of the smell of spring soil, Jiang Linyuan walked slowly in front, Xia Heyu followed behind by touching the cave wall.The cave was so quiet that the breathing of the two could be clearly heard.

The two walked for a long time touching the wall before reaching the bottom of the tomb.On the corners of the walls around the bottom of the tomb, there are actually dots of phosphorescence, which just allows people to see the whole picture of the tomb.

There is a coffin in the middle of the tomb, and it can be seen that it is a good-looking nanmu.The top of the tomb is very high, in the shape of a semicircle, and the bottom of the tomb is square. There are two side chambers on the side of the tomb, in which are placed jars and jars, and there are several murals that are somewhat blurred on the tomb walls.

Jiang Linyuan lifted his feet and walked towards the coffin, but was grabbed by Xia Heyu again, "What are you going to do?"

Jiang Linyuan turned his head, looked at Xia Heyu's green phosphorescent faces, and said with a single word: "Open the coffin, have you forgotten what the two of us are here for?"

"Creating crimes..." Xia Heyu sighed, "I actually want to steal money from a dead person one day."

"Stop complaining, it's important to live first." Jiang Linyuan said, pulling Xia Heyu to the coffin in the middle of the tomb, pointing to a corner of the coffin, and said, "You carry it over there."

Xia Heyu reached out his hand to touch the coffin, and his hands were covered with thick dust. The sticky feeling made him frowned, but he still listened to Jiang Linyuan's words, and obediently worked with him to lift the tight coffin lid .

The moment the coffin lid was lifted, a stench came from the coffin, which almost made the two of them faint.

Xia Heyu tightly covered his mouth and nose and looked in, but saw a coffin of black water, he couldn't help but raised his eyes and asked Jiang Linyuan, "There must be someone inside."

Jiang Linyuan waved his hands to fan the stench in front of him, after he regained consciousness, rolled up his sleeves, without hesitation, he put his hand into the black water of a coffin, touched it and said, "It seems...it belongs to someone. "

Xia Heyu took two steps back, his eyebrows twisted into chrysanthemums, "Jiang Linyuan...you...you are really desperate..."

Jiang Linyuan gave Xia Heyu a hard look, didn't speak, but groped in the coffin seriously.

Xia Heyu walked over from the wall hesitantly, looking curiously at the black water in the coffin.

"This is..." Jiang Linyuan frowned suddenly, he touched a small round and hard thing, but it seemed to be stuck on something, so he had to pull it up hard.

With a "crash", a ring inlaid with blood-colored rubies was pulled out of the water, along with a piece of finger bone that had turned black.
