Moth

The good days of Wudingguan stepping on Jiujiu Chongyang are over.

Standing on the south bank of the Xuanhe Estuary, the entire Wuding Pass looks very domineering, especially like a domineering crab, occupying the exit of the Xuanhe Estuary majestically.

The height of the Wuding Pass is indeed nearly a hundred feet, which is a foot higher than the drop of the Xuanhekou. The upper body is a fixed structure made of pouring, and it is firmly stuck between the stone mountain and the cool and cliffy mountain.On the top of the closed gate of Wudingguan, two very thick brackets were pulled out from the south bank and the north bank respectively, and went to the north and south ends respectively, stably fixing the upper structure in place.As Lu Hanzhang said, they did not dig into the cliffs of Qingliang Mountain, but used four supporting frames to support the huge crab on the river mouth.

The lower part is a revolving door panel structure, which is connected to the tail end of the upper structure with a circular groove with a considerable diameter. Two iron chains go around a special pulley structure above the circular groove from the east, and travel skillfully. In a shallow groove below the support rod, a structure like a large cylinder with the same diameter is passed around, and it is firmly wound on a wheel-shaped thing on the stone mountain.

At this time, the water gate was still open, and the water flow at the mouth of the hanging river was the same as usual.

Lu Hanzhang stood on the highest point of the stone mountain, turned his head, and smiled lightly: "Master Liu, do you want to see the appearance of Wuding when it is closed?"

Before Liu Changzhou could answer, he half-raised his right hand, and swayed back and forth casually, bringing the toga and sleeves full of hunting mountain wind, as if the sun, moon and stars between the sky and the earth were automatically and consciously merged into a huge vortex, His whole body is tightly wrapped around it.

Afterwards, the gatekeeper who had been waiting for a long time on the stone mountain swung his arms and slammed the drumstick into a huge metal gong. For a moment, there was a huge metal roar on both sides of the bank, hitting people's ears, Can't stop for a long time.

There was a row of tall and thick men standing beside the metal wheel on the stone mountain. When the gong sounded, they shouted almost in unison, hugged an iron rod about two feet long, and spun around the wheel as the axis.I only heard a strange sound from the direction of Wudingguan closing the door, and the circular groove connecting the fixed door and the revolving door began to rotate accordingly, and the revolving door that was hidden on the east side and was not exposed to people's sight began to be revealed bit by bit in the field of vision. Come.The door turned down little by little, and when it approached the water surface, there was a very loud slapping sound, but when the water door was about to be completely closed, the expected collision and friction sound of metal and river bottom sandstone did not come.

Liu Changzhou squinted his eyes and looked through the still clear water body. He observed very keenly that a shallow groove-shaped arc structure was ingeniously placed on the bottom mud corresponding to the bottom of Wuding Pass. The arc reflects the sunlight and emits a very dazzling light, which dazzles the entire bottom of Wuding Pass.

The route of water from east to west was completely cut off immediately.Then, the water level on the west side of Wuding Pass began to rise little by little. In about half a stick of incense, the big drop at the Xuanhe Estuary completely disappeared under the water surface. ups and downs.The most admirable thing is that several square water holes were ingeniously designed on both sides of the fixed door of Wudingguan. The thick water column poured down through the water holes to the east, and the speed of the incoming water and the speed of the water flow were exquisitely controlled by these water holes, and the water level stabilized.

A fleet of ships that had been anchored on the upper reaches of the west side for a long time set sail, crossed the Xuanhe Estuary very smoothly, and stopped firmly in front of the fixed gate of Wuding Pass, and then the boatman stuck the anchor on the fixed gate for a while. In the unique sliding rail, the men on the shore then loosened the entangled big iron chain little by little, the lower revolving door began to rise along the original road, the water level on the east side gradually dropped, the big ship and the anchor It also gradually descends with the water body until the revolving door is fully opened.Afterwards, the boat slid into the downstream with ease through the space created by Wuding closing the revolving door.The fleet was carefully arranged for almost all types of ships in the counties and towns along the Xuanhe River. Through the number of very concealed sliding rails closed by Wuding, it can be seen at a glance that the number of ships that can be transported in one retreat is as high as a hundred. .

And the whole process took less than half an hour.

On the top of the stone mountain stands a large natural and uncarved stone, on which a few basin-sized characters are chiseled out by the stonemason - engraved at the beginning of noon, closed and closed.

A very loud applause erupted from the onlookers.

The voice was too noisy, Lu Hanzhang had no choice but to lean over and stick to Liu Changzhou's ear and shout: "How is it?"

Liu Changzhou was immersed in an indescribable shock - the so-called natural dangers are impossible to climb, the land is dangerous, mountains, rivers and hills, good fortune has uncanny craftsmanship, and people have the ability to surpass nature.Then he remembered that from the preparation of Wudingguan to the completion of it now, there were several changes in cold and heat, and changes in temperature and coolness. There were 3000 people and [-] hands successively, adding bricks and tiles to Wudingguan one after another. Magnificent.

And the so-called rule of saints is probably like this—not because they can rule alone, but because they can rule together with others.

He paused for a long time before waking up, and said in a daze, "Huh?"

That person was like the second idiot next door, staring at the Wuding Pass blocking Dongxixuan River with straight and naked eyes, his expression was simply sacred, almost like a replica of Su Yu with a coffin face.

Lu Hanzhang suddenly felt that his hands were very itchy, and he wanted to put his long-cherished wish of "squeezing this bitch's face" into practice, so he stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Liu Changzhou, who was expressionless. Seeing that there was no response, he made a decisive decision Reach out and pinch.Unexpectedly, before reaching the goal, the man seemed to wake up suddenly, turned around unexpectedly, bumped his shoulders against him, and yelled loudly against his ear: "Seriously, if you were Jin Dou, I would have I will kiss you!"

Lu Hanzhang: "..." Is this fucking vaguely expressing that he is not as good as a dog?

After Liu Changzhou shouted, he was not satisfied. He hugged Lu Hanzhang's waist in a very invisible way, jumped a few times in the air lightly, like a gliding water bird, lightly landed on the highest point of Wudingguan, and then solemnly Said matter-of-factly: "Thank you, one of you is worth a hundred."

Lu Hanzhang, whose face was thicker than that of Wudingguan, felt a little embarrassed like never before. For a moment, he felt that they seemed to be too close to each other, so close that he could count the eyelashes one by one.

So the boss with a wider heart than the world didn't take his own life seriously, he casually moved a few steps to the side, raised his eyebrows, and said modestly without knowing it: "It's more than one Hundred?"

Liu Changzhou just laughed.

His smile is clean and pure, like a shepherd boy who is still begging for paper kites from adults, his eyes and brows are full of undisguised happiness, and the small and upward lines at the ends of his eyes are full of joy without any impurities.

... It's not at all like a big man who should be happy and angry, but more like Jindou who sneaked into the kitchen to eat rat poison by mistake.

Lu Hanzhang couldn't hold back, maybe because he was in such a good mood, he actually burst out laughing with a "puchi".He waved his hand in front of Liu Changzhou's eyes, and said meanly: "Hey, who is it, wake up, the second idiot next door, you're drooling."

Liu Changzhou came back to his senses, touched his nose in embarrassment, and coughed twice: "Then what... we villagers have never seen the world."

Lu Hanzhang: "..."

Suddenly a person who was completely different from the crowd immersed in cheers appeared on the stone mountain.

It was Zhan Baili!

Liu Changzhou was stunned—he assigned the well-informed old man Zhan to Fang Bingbi as an army guide. What happened in the barracks that he had to work a sixty-year-old man to deliver the letter?What happened to Cone Valley?

The news he got just made his heart skip a beat.

According to Zhan Baili, Fang Bingbi built a cottage on the mountainside of Zhuigu Valley similar to the bandit's den. He dug mud ditches within three steps outside the camp, and erected a top at the bottom of the ditch. The sharp wooden stakes were not even covered up, so that the men of the Chuangu Branch of the Jiangnan General Army were able to eat the meat of wild animals in the mountains almost every day.

But the good times didn't last long. Soldiers in the camp suffered from dysentery one after another, with severe vomiting and diarrhea. Not long after, nearly [-]% of the soldiers in the camp developed high fever symptoms.Even Fang Bingbi himself vomited and vented, and his whole body was forced to shrink a lot.

It has not been ten days, and almost all the soldiers are already in a state of half-dead and dying.Some people have bullous blisters all over their faces, and the blisters burst and ooze pus, and they are infected wherever they flow, which is very terrifying; Some people simply have a convulsion.

These soldiers are all natives of Jiangnan, and they are all like this, let alone Fang Bingbi, who is from Jiangbei.His whole body was in a state of being drained of water, his eye sockets were sunken, his complexion was yellow, and he couldn't move. He felt that his brain was dangling in his skull when he moved a little.

What's more unfortunate is that even Lang Zhong, who was with the army, was too sick to get out of bed.

In short, there were a total of 1 people in the entire military camp, and they showed all the diseases to the scene according to the symptoms introduced in "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" almost in a very standard way.

... Zhang Zhongjing, who has long passed away, will probably jump out of the ground excitedly if he sees this large-scale scene that is very suitable for apprentices to learn.

After hearing this, Liu Changzhou said: "Boss Lu, let's inscribe the plaque." He turned around and was about to leave.

The dying Zhan Baili held up his breath and stopped his footsteps.He shook his head, very weakly: "My lord, go directly to the Sichui alley where Master Du's house is located, and find a widow named Zhu Dianyi, only she can cure her."

widow?

Liu Changzhou's eyelids twitched, feeling that the visitor was not kind.

There were four families living in Sichui Hutong. When they arrived, there was a very beautiful woman standing at the entrance of the Hutong.Zhan Baili, who was carried on the horse, said with an air of gossamer: "My lord, this is the person."

The woman was seven feet tall, with a slender waist, leaning gracefully on a flat stone at the entrance of the alley, with a bag of melon seeds in her hand, and she was eating vigorously.I don’t know if it’s because she has been eating melon seeds for a long time, what she eats to make up for, her face is shaped like melon seeds, her two beautiful and obedient eyebrows are attached to just the right position, and a pair of eyes full of autumn water don’t know where to look – Liu Changzhou His forehead twitched suddenly, and he felt that it was just a coincidence. Well, I dare to say that there are vixens in this alley. There are Du Heng in the front and Zhu Dianyi in the back.

Before he stepped forward to speak, he heard the widow cut to the point very sharply, and said in a rhythmic and unhurried way: "I don't look at men with short legs, women with big breasts, and women who are uglier than me. I'm too short to look."

Liu Changzhou thought to himself, "A widow is indeed a widow." Out of ten women who can always win invincible wars in the world, nine out of ten are widows.He looked at her feet, as expected, it was not a three-inch golden lotus, but a pair of man's feet.The neighbor of his house in the imperial city lived with a widow. The widow was quite tough. His mother had never won a verbal battle with the widow. The widow also happened to have a pair of man's feet.

To deal with this kind of widow, you can't use your mouth, you can only use your hands.

Normally, if he was bored, he might still be in the mood to quarrel with the widow for a walk, but the situation is critical right now, and there is simply no time.

He dodged in front of the woman, pulled out the only jade hairpin on the woman's head like lightning, and shamelessly compared the tip of the hairpin to the woman's beautiful neck, without a word of nonsense, whispered: : "Will you go?"

It turned out that Zhu Dianyi was a master!

Her slender waist leaned back, like a water snake, with her crotch as the axis, her upper body drew a very perfect arc, and she avoided the hosta in the blink of an eye, and she also circled around the outside of Liu Changzhou's arm holding the hairpin.She raised her long eyebrows, and a flower sprouted from the corner of her mouth: "Oh, the gentleman doesn't move his mouth..."

Before he finished speaking, Liu Changzhou, who specialized in hands-on work, simply and roughly compared the hairpin to her side face. He followed her example and said with a squeeze of his throat, "Hey, should we go or not?"

Zhu Dianyi was not afraid of anything, but she was afraid that others would disfigure her, so she immediately decided that the hero would not suffer the loss in front of her, and she threw away the melon seeds without any future, and the docile one was taken down.

A group of people rushed to Cone Valley in a hurry, and as soon as they entered the camp gate, they saw crooked soldiers lying all over the ground, all of them were disheveled, and some of them almost had no face—it was almost impossible to call face , I saw that the place on the neck where there was not much booger was crowded with blisters, which made people get goose bumps and felt a chill.

As soon as Liu Changzhou opened Fang Bingbi's general tent, he saw a man lying on the camp bed who could almost climb up to relatives with a native chicken—Fang Bingbi was exactly as Zhan Baili said, he was like a tuberculosis Like critically ill patients.

Hearing the sound, the native chicken on the bed waved his hand laboriously, not sure if his brain was confused, but he still had the leisure to talk nonsense: "Help me up, I can have another bowl..."

Liu Changzhou leaned forward in three steps at a time, wiped the chicken's ear and punched it on the pillow, cursing coldly: "Drink your piss! Damn hold me up for a while!" In a calm tone, write the last letter to my sister before saying whether you will die or not."

Zhu Dianyi: "..."

She strode to catch up with heroic strides, threw Liu Changzhou on the broom stick to the side with great strength, and said, "You're going to die, so stop flirting with me under my old lady's nose, it's disgusting!"

Fang Bingbi, Liu Changzhou, and Zhan Baili: "..." It turns out that Sichui Hutong is rich in a kind of strange flower with a foxy face and infinite strength.At the same time, Liu Changzhou felt a burst of emotion in his heart, out of ten widows in the world, nine out of ten widows have a knife mouth and a tofu heart.

Zhu Dianyi probably didn't understand what it means to be intimidated by a man and a woman. She put her fingertips directly on Fang Bingbi's pulse, frowned and took the pulse quietly for a while, and said quickly: "Idiot, you are not timid. If you don’t eat the pheasant, run to eat the meat of the ‘Fire Black Leopard’, why don’t you eat it to death.”

This widow probably doesn't know how to speak human words very much. Basically, if any word passes through her throat once, it will scratch her ears so badly.

Liu Changzhou knew his rank, and he was more than enough to deal with a sissy like Du Heng, but he had more than enough power to deal with this kind of gunfighter. Basically, the whole army was wiped out as soon as he opened his mouth, although both of them had the word "pao" , the former is unfortunately a Squib.So he was very knowledgeable and didn't help, and only ordered a few soldiers who were still able to move to set up a few cauldrons in the middle of the camp.

Zhu Dianyi speaks in a hurry, especially when doing things.She took the pulse, grabbed Liu Changzhou's arm, and went straight to the point: "Hey, it's just you, why are you standing there stupidly? Waiting for the herbs to grow their own legs and jump into the pot, right?"

Liu Changzhou was full of concentration and stood still: "How long will it take to recover at the earliest?"

Zhu Dianyi rolled his eyes at him, and said impatiently: "You think it's a change of heaven, so it's good if you can talk it over? I'll have to wait until my next Guishui at the earliest."

Liu Changzhou silently covered his face, thinking that this is probably the highest level of the so-called "a tree without bark is bound to die; a person without shame is invincible"...

Yuanhe County Wharf is about ten arrows away from the south of the foot of Nanshan Mountain, very close.When the man and the woman were collecting herbs together, Liu Changzhou, who was standing on a high place, saw hundreds of warships of a very grand scale neatly lined up at the pier.Those warships were all covered by reeds that were higher than a human head. If they were not standing on a high place, no one would see them at all.

But on the shore, there are only a few people guarding it.

Liu Changzhou understood that Xi Nian had lost his internal response at Wuding Pass, even if they knew the news that Wuding Pass had been completed, it was because Deng Tuzi was watching the seven fairies in the Milky Way take a bath - so anxious.Right now, the enemy is in the clear and we are in the dark. It is the best policy to surprise, but who would have thought that the Jiangnan generals would collectively suffer from food poisoning?

If he was Fei Ruzi and had to pass the Wuding Pass without internal support, what would he do?

...will be disguised as a merchant ship!

He absent-mindedly took pictures of gourds and ladles, just as he picked up herbs behind Zhu Dianyi, the idea of ​​"destroying Wuding Pass" that he had given up on became clearer and clearer.

Then, out of season, a thin figure appeared in front of him - Lu Hanzhang.

A kind of grass with jagged edges scratched his finger, and he flicked it casually, sensitively capturing a feeling of guilt and reluctance in his heart - how much he had spent in the beginning, and he still made up for it. It took a punch and kick to force that person to occupy a high position, but it is clear at a glance which is more important between Wuding Pass and Daqing.

He suddenly didn't know how to say this to Lu Hanzhang.

This feeling of ignorance occupied his entire chest domineeringly, and there was no way to dispel that bit of bewilderment lying in his chest, so he was so rascally that he pushed all the responsibility to Fang Bingbi who was seriously ill in bed Body - make you greedy!
