On the morning of the next day, Lin Jue arrived at the Yamen of the Criminal Investigation Department and announced that he needed to leave the capital to go to other places for a period of time to investigate the clues of an unsolved case. All the things in the yamen are temporarily disposed of by Yang Xiu.

Everyone did not doubt him, but it was the adult's hands-on attitude that inspired everyone. After everyone came down, they all talked in private, Lord Lin is really an official who does practical things, and he has worked tirelessly to leave Beijing to pursue clues, what a spirit this is.

Yang Xiu knew in his heart that Lin Jue was leaving for personal reasons, because Lin Jue did not hide it from him. Lin Jue told Yang Xiu that he was going to Hangzhou to pick up his wife to Beijing, because he had just taken office, if he took leave for many days, he was afraid that he would be troubled by Zhu Zhirong, so he simply used the name of investigating the case. Yang Xiu expressed his understanding and told Lin Jue not to worry, he would handle the affairs in the yamen properly, so that Lin Jue could go with peace of mind and a safe journey.

Lin Jue went to the head of Kaifeng Mansion to explain the situation to Zhu Zhirong, and made up a clue that he had to leave Beijing to prevaricate. Zhu Zhirong reasoned and told Lin Jue to be careful, and what he said should be stable, and he was not in a hurry to solve the case and investigate the case. Lin Jue naturally nodded yes, but said in his heart: What you said is high-sounding, but I don't know who threatened Lao Tzu to make achievements in six months. stuffed a lot of old, weak, sick and disabled people into Lao Tzu's yamen, but he said this kind of thing.

In the early afternoon, under the Bianhe wharf, a canopy boat docked for a long time. A carriage and several horses came slowly, and even the men and horses and carts quickly got on board. The sails were raised, and with the slight east wind, the awning boat sailed westward.

On the bow of the boat, Lin Jue waved goodbye to several people on the shore. Green Wu waved her hand desperately with red eyes, Xie Yingying's eyes were moist and wiped with tears, and only after the boat crossed the river bend did she leave together.

Half an hour later, the canopy boat went out of the city from the West Water Gate, and Ma Bin, who guarded the West Water Gate, personally opened the gate and let it go, all the way unimpeded, and went out of the capital with the wind.

In the evening, at a small wharf thirty miles from Beijing, the canopy boat docked. Several horses and a cart came ashore from here and traveled by land. The capital is only four or five days away from Funiu Mountain, and if you go by water, you will be able to get there by detour.

Because he was worried about the situation in the mountains, Lin Jue refused to delay more, and the three of them traveled to the middle of the moon with Lin Hu, a silly girl from Bai Bing, and rested for a few hours in a small town called Chicang in the southwest of the capital. Early the next morning, it started again.

Although he was anxious, because the carriage was heavy and Lin Jue's instructions were absolutely not too bumpy, he could only walk slowly when he encountered a rough road, so the overall speed of travel was not fast. Fortunately, it coincides with the middle of the month, and the moon is in the sky at night, and you can see things, and you can also rush some distance at night. Rao was like this, and after traveling for four days, he finally arrived in Ruzhou on the east side of Funiu Mountain in the afternoon.

After arriving in Ruzhou, everyone became extra cautious. Ruzhou is close to Funiu Mountain, which is the key gathering and blockade of the imperial court's soldiers and horses, and if you are not careful, you will be in trouble. In the evening, when crossing the official road in the south of Ruzhou City, there were officers and soldiers blocking the road to investigate, but fortunately, Lin Jue's identity was revealed, and the official documents of the Kaifeng Prefecture Criminal Division Yamen and the identity of the criminal officer made the officers and soldiers who were interrogated not make it difficult. The wooden boxes on several carriages were also saved when they were almost pried open.

The leader of the officers and soldiers at the checkpoint told Lin Jue that he should not go further east, saying that there had been chaos in Funiu Mountain recently, and there were shouts of killing in the four fields at night, and I didn't know what was going on. All the officers and soldiers within 30 miles of Funiu Mountain have been evacuated and put on guard in case the bandits rush out of the mountain to attack the officers and men. Therefore, further east, there will be no officers and soldiers to shelter, and there will be no help if something happens.

Lin felt this information and was not surprised. Originally, I was most worried about the checkpoints of the officers and soldiers who had entered the mountains for dozens of miles. Because they did not know what had happened in the mountains, the officers and men withdrew their cards to assemble for defense, but instead gave themselves and others the convenience of entering, which was tantamount to solving a big problem.

Lin Jue thanked them for their kind reminder and rewarded them with a hundred taels of silver. The enthusiastic officers and soldiers and generals actually wanted to send people to escort Lin Jue, and they escorted them all the way to Qingtai Town in the southeast of the mountain through the dangerous journey ahead. Lin Jue quickly declined their kindness and told them that he would not approach Funiu Mountain and would immediately take a detour to the south. After several excuses, the enthusiastic leader of the officers and soldiers gave up.

After passing the county seat of Yexian County, it entered the most tense area around Funiu Mountain. The leader of the officers and soldiers did not lie, and after passing the last checkpoint in the west of Yexian County, there was no trace of the officers and soldiers in front of him. In the evening, at the twilight, the dark and dreary Funiu Mountain in the distance is like a giant python winding in the sky. The evening breeze blows, and the four fields are sluggish, and there is quite a chilling atmosphere.

Lin Jue and Silly Niu and the others discussed for a while, although it was almost dark, it was only less than thirty miles away from Funiu Mountain, and it was not worth delaying for another night. Moreover, everyone was anxious to know what was going on in the mountains, so they decided to go into the mountains overnight.

Of course, there is a huge risk associated with doing so. Not to mention the danger of the difficult journey into the mountains at night, the greater danger lies in the unknown situation in the mountains. If the Luoyan Valley Dazhai has been breached, then breaking in at night without knowing the situation is tantamount to throwing yourself into the net, and you can't run away.

But Lin Jue couldn't think about it. By the faint light of the waning moon in the sky, the group walked all the way to the entrance of the valley in the middle of the night. After passing through the valley, it entered the control range of Luoyan Valley Dazhai. When Lin Jue and the others panted through the valley and came to the bottom of the east peak of the Luoyan Valley, the scene in front of them amazed Lin Jue and the others.

On the slope of the east peak of Luoyan Valley, the fire is dotted and dense. The firelight on the hillside was clearly regular, it was a ring of fire. From top to bottom, there are as many as four or five ways. Seeing this scene, a stone fell to the ground in Lin Jue's heart. This is exactly the three-dimensional defense structure of the fortifications and arrow towers built one by one in the Luoyan Valley. If the cottage is breached, the defense system will not be so clear, it must have been a mess. The fortifications are still lit with fire, which shows that the cottage has not been lost.

A few people approached the mountain path under the east peak, and the stupid girl shouted loudly to the mountain: "Don't let go of the arrow, I'm a stupid girl, the military advisor is back!" ”

The silly girl's sharp voice shouted more than a dozen times, and her voice seemed to echo throughout the valley. Lin Jue smiled bitterly and was speechless, how could anyone call himself a stupid girl. The silly girl has a name, called Deng Qi. But she also called herself a stupid girl, and others were afraid that they would even forget her real name.

There seemed to be no response on the hillside, and the fire on the hillside was dazzling, but no one responded, which made Lin Jue feel a sense of foreboding.

Finally, a shout came from above: "Are you a stupid girl?" Are you saying that the military advisor is back? ”

"Yes! The military advisor is back, who are you? The stupid girl shouted at the top of her voice.

"Great, great, the military advisor is back. I'm Li Shishi, I'm going to report to the master of Dazhai. ”

"Brother Shi, go and report to the master of Dazhai and them, just say that the military division is back."

The answer between the mountains and the mountains resounded through the valley, and there was soon movement on the hillside. Soon after, there was a commotion of torches below the summit, mixed with the shouts of the people.

"The military division is back, the military division is back."

Lin Jue and the others under the mountain all listened to it very well, and the long dragon of torches also poured down the hillside.

Lin Jue was excited, and his eyes were a little sour. Bai Bing looked at Lin Jue with a smile and said, "Lang Jun is quite prestigious here." ”

Lin Jue rubbed his eyes and said, "It seems to be a little bit." Prepare to meet someone, you put this thing on. ”

Lin Jue handed a mask to Bai Bing, turned around and put a mask on his face, instantly becoming an expressionless middle-aged man with a sallow face.

Bai Bing frowned and said, "Why do you want to wear this?" ”

The stupid girl also said: "That's it, the military teachers and students are so good-looking, why do you want to wear such an ugly mask?" ”

Lin Hu said in a deep voice: "Uncle is a member of the imperial court, so he has to guard against it." ”

Bai Bing suddenly realized, and the stupid girl also understood. There are hundreds of people of all kinds, and the good and bad in the cottage are uneven, if the true face is shown and recognized, if the court knows, then Lin Jue will be the fate of the whole family to be wiped out. Bai Bing didn't say a word, obediently put on a mask, and instantly changed from a beautiful girl to a freckle-faced woman.

"They're coming, let's go." Lin Jue smiled and pointed to the long dragon of torches and the noisy crowd that had reached the mountainside.

Lin Jue and his party only went up for a short time, on a small piece of flat land. Dozens of people rushed down the slope with torches in front of them.

Lin Jue stood still, smiling and looking at the person rushing in front of him, it was Gao Muqing, who he was extremely concerned about. Gao Muqing was wearing black armor all over her body, without a helmet on her head, her long hair fluttered in the wind as she ran, and her whole face had an eager and expectant look. It seemed like he was going to cry, but he was laughing.

Lin Jue stood in place with his arms outstretched, making a gesture to greet and hug her. Gao Muqing's expression seemed to be a little hesitant, but the hesitation disappeared without a trace after a moment, and the whole person flew in and rushed into Lin Jue's arms in front of everyone's eyes. hugged Lin Jue tightly and never let go.

The people around him coughed and turned their heads, a little embarrassed to look. When the military division was on the mountain, it was rumored that the military division and the owner of the village had fallen in love with each other, but after all, it was just rumors and speculations. At this moment, all these rumors have been confirmed, and the military advisor and the master of the village are indeed a couple.

Gao Muqing hugged Lin Jue's waist tightly, put her head in Lin Jue's arms, hot tears gushed out, sobbing and didn't know what to say. Lin Jue stroked his back and comforted him softly: "Mu Qing, you have suffered, I am here." Don't be afraid, don't worry, I'm coming. ”

Gao Muqing nodded violently with tears on her face, hugging Lin Jue and not letting go.

Lin Jue said in a low voice: "You are the master of the big village, you can't be so weak in front of your brothers." ”

Gao Muqing hurriedly raised his hand to wipe his tears when he heard this, and turned his head around a little shyly. Seeing that everyone around him could turn their heads and know that they were deliberately evasive, his heart settled down a little. But suddenly, her gaze met a pair of clear eyes behind Lin Jue, and Gao Muqing instinctively sensed a hint of hostility, so she frowned.

Lin Jue noticed this, and felt a little embarrassed in his heart, and hurriedly said softly: "Mu Qing, this is the senior disciple of the white senior, and his name is ......."

"Are you Sister Bai Bing?" Gao Muqing shouted.

Bai Bing was stunned and saluted: "Good master, Bai Bing is polite." ”

Lin Jue looked at Gao Muqing with some surprise, but heard Gao Muqing smile and said, "Senior Bai told me about you, I know who you are." ”

Just this sentence, there is no need to say more. After Bai Yushuang came to the cottage to recuperate, Gao Muqing respected her very much, and Bai Yushuang did not hide it from her, and told Gao Muqing about the entanglement between Bai Bing and Lin Jue. Therefore, Gao Muqing naturally knew the relationship between Bai Bing and Lin Jue.

Bai Bing blushed a little. When he saw Gao Muqing throw himself into Lin Jue's arms, he was indeed jealous in his heart. But it shouldn't be that way. Lin Jue told Bai Bing everything he and Gao Muqing had experienced, and Bai Bing knew what kind of woman Gao Muqing was, and she also knew her position in Lin Jue's heart. It's just that vinegar is instinctive.

"Strategist, you want to kill us. You're here. A loud voice sounded beside him, Lin Jue turned his head to look, and saw Liang Qi standing not far away and smiling at him.

Lin Jue walked quickly and said with a smile: "Brother Liang, haha, we meet again." ”

Liang Qi wanted to bow his hand, but Lin Jue hugged his arm and wanted to give him a hug. Liang Qi frowned and screamed, inhaling cold air in his mouth. Lin Jue was stunned and said, "What's wrong?" ”

Liang Qi smiled bitterly and didn't answer, and Qin Chuncao, the master of the five villages standing next to him, said coquettishly: "He was seriously injured, and he was told to rest, but he refused to live or die." I heard that the military advisor had arrived, and I desperately wanted to come down to meet him. I guess the wounds are cracked. ”

Liang Qi frowned and said, "What do you say?" What do you do with the military advisor? Women are talkative. ”

Qin Chuncao's willow eyebrows were upside down, and he was about to attack. Liang Qi glanced at him, but Qin Chuncao couldn't help it, and only glanced at Liang Qi fiercely. That means: I'll clean you up later.

Lin Jue laughed and said, "Miss Qin is for your good, Brother Liang doesn't know how to lift." ”

Liang Qiniu said coaxingly: "Women's Taoist people, I don't understand anything. When the military advisor arrives, I'm afraid I'll have to climb down. Besides, my injuries are that serious? Can this little injury make me lie down? Joke. ”

Qin Chuncao was angry and angry again, and Liang Qi hurriedly handed over his eyes again.

Lin Jue laughed and said: "Oh, I can see it, Brother Liang is a hero at the moment, and he will be a bear when he goes home, right?" ”

Liang Qi said in a low voice: "The military advisor is a smart person, why bother to say it." ”

Everyone around burst into laughter, and Lin Jue said: "Brother Liang, don't be embarrassed, men, it is natural to be a bear in front of your own women." Don't you know that 'if you endure three points, the world will be peaceful'? ”

The crowd burst into laughter. Gao Muqing laughed and was disgusted. Qin Chuncao's face was red, and she couldn't help laughing. Liang Qi said with a smile: "What the military advisor said is the wise saying, or the wisdom of the military advisor. Hey, I knew that the military advisor was coming, so we would get married a few days later, so it would be nice to let the military advisor be the main marryman. ”

Lin Jue smiled: "Are you married?" Congratulations, then I have to ask for a glass of wine. ”

Liang Qidao: "Yes, I wanted to do it more grandly, but Qin Donghe's old dog didn't let us live in peace." The situation was critical, and I didn't know if I could live, so I told Chuncao that it didn't matter if I died, and I would die without even a daughter-in-law, which was really boring. So as soon as it was summed up, I moved the cover roll and slept together. The brothers all drank the wedding wine, and the military advisor naturally kept the cup. ”

Lin Jue nodded slowly when he heard this, he understood what Liang Qi meant. The cottage is in danger, and the war will be extremely tragic, and I don't know if I can survive this catastrophe this time. So Liang Qi and Qin Chuncao simply got married, so as not to die, they couldn't get married. This is called a battlefield wedding, and the situation is compelling.

At the mention of the war situation, the joyful atmosphere suddenly diminished a lot. Lin Jue looked at everyone, and at this moment, he found that they were all haggard and decadent, their faces were full of stains, and their hair was in a messy bun. Some of them still have scars on their faces. Their armor was stained and torn in many places. Many of them were still wrapped in cloth straps and hung their arms over their chests, apparently injured.

After Lin Jue stepped forward to greet everyone one by one, he said in a deep voice: "Brothers, you are all good, I am very ashamed that I failed to resist a strong enemy with you. But fortunately, I wasn't late, and the cottage was still there. I have the confidence to defend my Luoyan Valley Dazhai and defeat the strong enemy. Do you have faith? ”

"When the military advisor comes, how can we not have faith. The Falling Goose Army will win! Liang Qi shouted.

"The Falling Goose Army will win!" The crowd roared in unison.

Lin Jue laughed and said, "There is no such thing as a sure victory in the world. But against Qin Donghe, winning is not bragging. I will teach Qin Donghe to know how powerful we are. ”

When everyone heard this, they were overjoyed and thought: The military advisor must have a strategy to meet the enemy, otherwise how could the military advisor say such a thing. For a while, the crowd was excited and elated.

"Let's go into Dazhai and talk, what is standing here? Walk, go up the hill. Lin Jue shouted.

Everyone laughed and said: "Let's go, let's be happy and confused, we don't know how to welcome the military division up the mountain." ”

Everyone surrounded Lin Jue to leave, Lin Jue turned to Gao Muqing who was following closely and said, "I brought some things in the valley below, but I can't come up." You find some brothers to carry them up and transport them to the cottage. Remember, don't crash violently, be careful. ”

Gao Muqing nodded in agreement, and instructed Qin Chuncao, the master of the five villages, to be responsible, and took dozens of brothers to move several large wooden boxes from below to keep up with the team. Lin Jue specially instructed Qin Chuncao to find a safe place to place it, and not to approach fireworks and other objects, Qin Chuncao nodded and agreed. Lin Jue walked along the mountain road to the cottage surrounded by everyone.

Walking all the way up the mountain road, Lin Jue deliberately observed the surrounding fortifications and terrain. The eastern slope was once covered with lush trees, but now it is mottled and depressed. The charred trees stood sparsely, and many of the hillside cliffs had collapsed, and it was a mess.

Seeing Lin Jue looking at the surrounding scene, Gao Muqing explained in a low voice: "The people of Heifeng Village intend to set fire to the mountain. The eastern slope of the dense forest was burned like this by a fire. The rocks were burned by the fire and collapsed in many places. Fortunately, you asked us to cut down the fire barrier, so Dazhai was not threatened. Most of the fortifications on the hillside were also preserved. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable. ”

Lin Jue frowned and nodded, pointed to the hillside ring fortifications lit by the bonfire and said, "Why aren't there any people here?" I only saw people on the tower, but there were not many people in the fortifications. ”

Gao Muqing sighed softly and did not answer.

Lin Jue said: "Is there not enough manpower? So Dongpo sang an empty city plan to confuse the enemy with a bonfire? ”

Liang Qi smiled bitterly: "The military advisor really saw through our thoughts at a glance. It seems that this method cannot be deceived. ”

Gao Muqing said softly: "The frontal battlefield of Luoyan Valley is tight, we are short of troops, and there is no need to defend this side of Dongpo for a while, so only more than 100 people are left to observe the enemy situation on the arrow tower and confuse the enemy soldiers in Heifeng Village with bonfires. It's something that can't be helped. ”

Lin Jue nodded, pursed his lips and said no more. He understood that since Gao Muqing said so, the casualties of the Luoyan Army must be extremely large, and the frontal battlefield was already extremely tight, so he had to make this decision. In fact, this kind of trick can only fool the enemy. Just like just now, when I and the others touched the slope of Dongshan, no one noticed. If you don't shout loudly, no one will know if you touch the mountainside. This is a huge hidden danger. Gao Muqing and the others may not be unaware, but maybe they are overstretched, so they have to take this risk.
