The No. 1 Sword Cultivator in History [Transmigration Book]

That night, Su Shisan almost broke through the threshold.

After about eight o'clock, even Mrs. Zhang couldn't sit still, and she followed Su Shisan at the door, looking up from time to time while reciting Buddhist scriptures.The servant went to the governor's office three or four times, and when he came back the last time, he was out of breath, held the door and shouted: "Old lady, it's not good!"

"What's wrong?" Su Shisan hurriedly asked first.

"It is said that there is a surnamed Wu who is revolting in Changzhou! Right now, Master Zhang is discussing with others, saying that he will lead troops to suppress the rebellion, and he will leave overnight."

"In such a hurry?" Mrs. Zhang's complexion changed in an instant, she was holding the Buddhist beads in her hand, and her knuckles were bulging.

"Who says it's not!" The servant finally took a breath, put his hand on his chest and said loudly: "But those soldiers said, what is this, soldiers are so expensive! If our Lord Zhang doesn't care now, when Changzhou becomes the climate, I'm afraid it will only take three or two days to fight from Changzhou to the capital."

Changzhou is really close to the capital.From the military map, there is only a cliff between the two cities.Once the Changzhou army breaks through the Yaguan and cuts off the most important land transportation to the capital, it will only take a while to conquer the capital.

Even if the city cannot be attacked, just besieging the city is enough to turn the capital into a dead city.The people in a city can only sit and wait to die.

It is understandable for Zhang Chengan to be anxious.

Su Shisan couldn't help asking: "Is the master coming back tonight?"

"I don't know!" The servant waved his hand. "There's a lot of chaos in the yamen, and they're all waiting in line. I've run around a few times and I haven't seen anyone from my master."

"He's a few dozen years old! He's still messy in his work." Mrs. Zhang couldn't help complaining, "What can I do if I send someone back to deliver a letter?"

08: 30.

Su Shisan and Mrs. Zhang were restless, so they simply moved Zhang Xiaoyu, and sat at the gate of the palace, watching anxiously.A car horn sounded far outside the door, and Zhang Chengan finally came back.

Su Shisan rushed out, looked around from the door, there were five or six hundred soldiers running over.The sound of Yan's footsteps in this quiet night made people panic.

Zhang Chengan got off the car, brushed off his sleeves, and passed Su Shisan directly.

With a pale face, Su Shisan glanced back, but didn't see Qingliu Dalang.

"Father!"

He hurriedly followed through the door, when he heard Zhang Chengan with his back turned to him, saying to Mrs. Zhang: "...Mom, I have to leave quickly for this trip! Say goodbye to you, I'm leaving now."

"It's hard to live a stable life for half a year!" Old lady Zhang frowned. "You go, when will you come back?"

"Quick!" Zhang Chengan smiled nonchalantly. "I'm going this time, and I'm sure to catch him by surprise! If it goes well, I'll be back in a month or so."

"What if there is an accident?"

"That's only two or three months! Mother, don't worry, what can Changzhou have? The kid surnamed Wu was one of my soldiers back then."

Su Shisan held the door frame with his hands and watched Zhang Chengan chat with the old lady for a few more words.When Zhang Chengan hurried past him, he hurriedly followed. "Master, my young master?"

"Your young master?"

Zhang Chengan kept walking, and then he seemed to finally remember, waved his hand, and said impatiently: "I am in a hurry to leave, that kid should still be in the Governor's Yamen. If you are worried, go and see him tomorrow morning."

"In the yamen?" Su Shisan was shocked. "I didn't eat or drink in the prison, it's so late..."

"What's the matter? I'm kind, and I still provide food in the prison! There is food and sleep, and a free teahouse. How is he doing well?!"

Zhang Chengan sneered, and left in a hurry.

The sound of cars starting on the long street, the sound of hundreds of soldiers carrying guns, sobbing, and orderly running, all made the scene extraordinarily chaotic under the moonlight.

The white moon was like a lamp, shining on Su Shisan's pale face like paper.

After Zhang Chengan led the crowd away, Su Shisan waited for the old lady to sleep, and then quietly climbed over the wall and left.He ran to the governor's yamen in a hurry, and he couldn't breathe evenly.

Seeing him, the soldier guarding the gate suddenly pulled the bolt of his gun and snapped, "Where did you come from?"

Su Shisan squatted down, put his hands on his knees and panted heavily, and hurriedly said: "Don't, don't shoot! It was Master Zhang who sent me to find my young master before he left!"

He reported Bai Minyu's name, and explained, "It's the young master of the Bai family who was just captured during the day."

When the two boxes of gold bars were carried back during the day, the entire governor's office was alarmed.The soldier was impressed, and immediately smiled and said, "Say it sooner!" Then he put away his gun. "Before Mr. Zhang left, let him be imprisoned temporarily. Don't worry, he didn't suffer! Just let him stay for a few days and deal with him when he comes back."

"Ah? Can the wound on his body be treated?"

Su Shisan hurriedly followed the soldiers into the cell, but this time he didn't go to the damp and dark place, but went directly to a separate cell.There is a door that is closed, and it is no longer a wooden fence with a lattice.

He knocked on the door, but there was no answer.

"Young Master! Young Master, it's me!"

Su Shisan knocked on the door again.

"Probably fell asleep!"

The soldier said nonchalantly and took a bunch of keys from his waist.The key was inserted into the door opening, and with a click, the door opened, and the room was completely dark.The soldier held up the oil lamp in his hand, there was only one bed in the cell less than five square meters, some hay was spread on it, and a thin quilt, which could be seen through at a glance.

But there is not even a shadow of a person.

"This kid actually ran away? How did he run away?" The soldier was shocked, and he went to shine on the window with a lamp.

The window is three or four meters above the ground, which is a vent, and the young child can barely crawl through it curled up.But Qingliu Dalang is so tall, he is only a few centimeters short of Zhang Chengan.How did he crawl into that hole? !

Su Shisan grabbed the soldier's sleeve and asked urgently with red eyes: "Where is he? Don't you kill him without telling Master Zhang?!"

"Go away! Don't get in the way!"

The soldier elbowed Su Shisan away, then stood on the head of the bed, and lit the dark vent with the lamp again.

Then he jumped down and strode out with a lot of footsteps.

"The kid in cell number two has escaped! Brothers, hurry up..."

"Quick what?"

There were vaguely lazy questions and answers.

"Master Zhang has already gone to Changzhou. There is no way to manage this place. We have to search the city!"

"Then, report to the platoon leader?"

"By the way, just tell the platoon leader."

Su Shisan told the soldier to throw his elbow on the ground, and then he sat slumped in the cell.The soldiers took the lamp away, and it was dark all around.The smell of earth in the mud drilled into the nostrils.

Su Shisan felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and it seemed that he sank into the bottom of the sea with his head depressed, and he couldn't breathe.

The mouth of the throat was covered with seaweed, choking out his wet tears.

A month later, the news from Changzhou was extremely pessimistic, saying that the war had entered a stalemate.After the general surnamed Wu started the incident, the whole world was like a prairie fire in an instant, and more than a dozen cities and cities responded one after another, seeing that the capital area was about to fall into the battlefield again.

After another seven or eight days, news of defeat could be heard from the front from time to time.Mrs. Zhang's voice of chanting Buddha in the back hall became louder and louder.

Su Shisan lay listlessly on the window sill, thinking in his heart that Da Lang might have run away.He squatted in the governor's yamen every day for the past month, and every time he was chased back by soldiers.Couldn't sleep, couldn't eat, and lost weight rapidly. She was born small, but now she's a lamp grass figure, who can float away when the wind blows.

Half a month later, Zhang Chengan's defeated troops withdrew to the capital one after another.Even Mrs. Zhang went to the pier a few times, accompanied by Su Shisan. The two saw many wounded soldiers and carried them back on stretchers.

Three months later, Yaguan completely fell.Zhang Cheng'an finally fled back from the front in a hurry, scribbled on the remnants of the Bei'an Army who were staying in the capital, and left with Mrs. Zhang.It is said that they want to retreat to the Central Plains area, and choose an opportunity to return to the north.

Su Shisan saw that no one cared about him, took advantage of the turmoil, and quietly escaped.

Su Shisan didn't know where Qingliu Dalang had gone, so he could only follow the road he had traveled that day, looking for it everywhere.Half a month later, he finally got off the ferry from Jicheng Wharf.He was dusty and dusty, he didn't even have a bundle in his hand, his complexion was sallow, and only the last three copper coins were left on his body.

He followed the direction in his memory and found the newly renovated Bai Mansion in Jicheng.The door of the Bai Mansion was wide open, and there was a group of soldiers chaotically inside, but it was not Zhang Chengan's team.He couldn't figure out the situation, so he stood at the door and took a few glances.

"Go! Where is Hanako begging for food, go beg for food elsewhere!"

A soldier who opened the door, with half a cigarette butt in his mouth, waved his big hand, and drove Su Shisan away.

Su Shisan couldn't find Mr. Bai, so he wandered aimlessly in the market next to various shops, asking for news about the Bai family, but most of the responses he got were that he didn't know.

After seven or eight days like this, the last three copper coins on my body were replaced by ten steamed buns to fill my stomach.He really had no choice but to find a tea house and chop firewood for them there.

After spending two or three months in Jicheng, I accidentally heard some news from the tea drinkers, saying that someone from the Bai family did escape back at the beginning, but the war was too chaotic, and finally packed up and went to the countryside.Where exactly no one knows.

When Su Shisan heard the news, he couldn't stay still anymore, and when the wages were settled at the end of the month, he went to Yincheng again with a bunch of copper coins.

Yincheng was next to Jicheng, and when he arrived all the way, Yincheng was even more chaotic, with the sound of bombing in the sky from time to time.Shrill sirens can be heard on the street anytime and anywhere, and people panic.

He wandered all the way, turned to the Mingsheng Theater, and heard the long-lost sound of gongs and drums coming from inside.There were still well-dressed people in front of the theater to listen to the play.He glanced at his own hand, which had a layer of calluses from chopping wood, and then peeled off, making it as rough as sawtooth to the touch.Hair grows like weeds.Almost out of shape.

In troubled times, looking for a specific person among millions of people is really like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Su Shisan felt miserable, and couldn't help but secretly hated.Before the dragon left, he didn't even leave him a message, and I don't know if he will remember to go back to the capital to find him in the future?Fortunately, the two of them had a life-and-death contract, did he have to walk on the road one day and suddenly fell to the ground, and at the moment when he closed his eyes, he finally knew that something happened to Da Lang?

Su Shisan closed his eyes, and glanced at the huge poster in front of Mingsheng Theater.No one knows where the "countryside" of the Bai family is.He can only go back to the capital and wait for him.

The vast sea of ​​people, thousands of miles away.It's a pity that he doesn't even have any money on him.

If you want to go back to the capital, you have to find a way to raise all the travel expenses first.

Su Shisan closed his eyes again, gritted his teeth for the last time, pinched his nose, went to the backstage of the theater, and announced Hua Ruoli's name.

"Yes, I have studied opera with Boss Hua for two years. Brother, can you help me to ask, is there still a shortage of actresses in this troupe? If not, I will also play tricks. Just ask the troupe master to give me a meal!"

There was a lot of voices in the backstage of Mingsheng Theater, and the bright lights inside could be vaguely glimpsed.The person who spoke to Su Shisan was a clean-cut man with a white patch on the bridge of his nose, who looked him up and down.

"Wait, I'm about to go on stage now! I'll ask the class leader for you when he comes out later."

"Hey! Thank you, brother, for your accommodation!"

Su Shisan smiled.In rags and rags, this smile gave off a bright spring, which forced the room full of beauty to be overwhelmed by three points.A pair of deer eyes with distinct black and white, the eyes are moist, as if they can talk, and they seem to hide a pair of hooks.

The net corner was obviously stunned, then turned around and hurriedly opened the cotton curtain and went in.

After a while, someone came out to meet Su Shisan, and politely invited him to sit in the teahouse.In the teahouse, the man first pinched his nose and said in distaste: "This stink! Where did you come from?"

Su Shisan sipped the tea in his cup and smiled. "Originally, I stayed in the capital for a period of time, and there was also a war in the capital, and I thought that Ye Luo would return to her roots and come back to Yincheng."

"It's also due to your luck!" The man stared at him and laughed. "The Hong family also ran away a while ago, otherwise I wouldn't have dared to accept you! Your case has only been closed for a few years!"

Su Shisan raised his eyes and smiled when he heard the words, his smile was pale.But still vivid eyebrows, a frown and a smile, it is worthy of painting.
