Chapter 95: The Dust Settles
Ma Qiansi went around in the dense forest for most of the circle, so the place where the towering giant trees shaded the sun, and there were ravines, weeds, shrubs and thorns blocking the road, and he had to detour from time to time, and it was quite difficult for him to barely know the direction he was going to, and naturally he could not accurately reach the original location.
Ma Qiansi took more than a dozen people around the jungle in a big circle, and when he went back, he was two or three miles ahead of the original location, which was already quite accurate identification, mainly because his subordinates were all people who were used to walking in the mountains.
It is close to the remnants of the mountain forest, and it is also the edge of the area controlled by the Shizhu Ma family, and there is a small village at the foot of the mountain. After Ma Qiansi escaped, he immediately noticed the traces of life in this area, and then found a small village, where he met Tian Nufeng and others who had taken a short rest.
"I'm out!"
Ma Qiansi rushed up to meet him, and when he swept his eyes, he was stunned: "What about my mother?" ”
Tian Nufeng greeted her, her expression was a little gloomy: "Qiansi, your mother ...... her"
The blood on Ma Qiansi's face faded suddenly, and he said in a trembling voice: "Mother-in-law......"
Tian Nufeng patted him lightly on the shoulder: "Qiansi, the festival mourns smoothly!" ”
Ma Qiansi's tears flowed down the ground, and her lips trembled: "My mother, she...... How did she die? ”
Tian Nufeng shook her head sadly, and said in a low voice: "We are about to escape, and the result is ...... The pursuers are getting closer and closer, and we are going to climb over a rock by the river, and your mother accidentally falls because of her exhaustion, and is hit in the back of the head by the sharp stone below......"
Ma Qiansi's knees weakened, knelt on the ground, and roared with tears rolling down: "Why didn't anyone help her?" Why! ”
Tian Nufeng's eyes were bright, and she said sadly: "I want to snatch back your mother's body." lest she be exposed to the wilderness, but ...... The chasing soldiers and arrows continue to ......, Qiansi, don't be sad, your mother's blood feud must be repaid with their blood. You have to cheer up! ”
Ye Xiaotian watched such a scene from the side, but his heart was cold. Perhaps, for a beautiful woman, people always subconsciously associate her with goodness and beauty, and even if she is not, she can be bewitching and debauched, and she will rarely be equated with cruelty. But in fact, the skin is beautiful and ugly. It has nothing to do with his heart, and this situation makes Ye Xiaotian shudder.
……
After Ma Qiancheng rushed back to the stone pillar, the order of the stone pillar was completely restored to normal. Although the old Tusi has not come back, the successor Tusi is the eldest son of the old Tusi, and the local people feel that the Ma family has completely settled down in the world, and this territory will be Ma Qiancheng sooner or later.
All kinds of toasts, headsmen, and earth houses. All of them have been commended and thanked by Ma Qiancheng. Of course, this was under Qin Liangyu's reminder. Otherwise, Ma Qiancheng might not have thought of it. Although he didn't have these performances, the princes from all walks of life would not say anything, but with these words, especially for the deacon's nephew, they felt that their hard work was not in vain, and they were very relieved.
Among them, some people who had some strange thoughts because of the civil strife in Ma Tusi Mansion dispelled their ambitions after Ma Qiancheng returned. I saw the military might of the Qin family's white pole soldiers with my own eyes, and I was even more deeply in awe, after this chaos, not only was the status of the Ma family not affected at all, but the internal division mountain had been stripped out. It was more like I was united.
When the Tusha and Tusi left, only Qin Liangyu and Ma Bangpin were left in Shizhu Mansion to temporarily help him. On this day, Ma Bangpin received a message that made him very happy: "Mrs. Qin, dead!" ”
Mrs. Qin's body was found by a small river at the bottom of the mountain.
At the beginning, Tian Henfeng asked the master of Longhu Mountain to smash her internal organs with one palm, but did not hurt her skin, because Mrs. Qin's status was not bad after all, although Tian Henfeng had the intention of killing her, she had no intention of abusing her, and wanted to leave her a whole corpse.
However, in hindsight, Tian Nufeng couldn't help but regret this thought, what she said to Ma Qiansi was that Mrs. Qin fell off a rock and hit the back of her head and died, which had to be found by someone to find the body and find out that the cause of death did not match, so what should I do? However, this worry only passed through her heart, and she didn't pay too much attention to it.
The reason is simple: there are many wild beasts in the jungle, and the corpses may not be saved; Even if you are not harmed by wild beasts, all the way down, bumps and bumps, and the corpse is not complete; Again, there are few autopsies in this era, Mrs. Qin died on the way to escape, how can there be an autopsy?
Besides, it is difficult to say whether the body can be found by people outside the mountain, and it is equally difficult to say when it will be found, and it may be unrecognizable by the time it is found. Thinking about it, the possibility of being found out is really very small, and Tian Henfeng naturally won't worry about it all day long.
Mrs. Qin's body was found relatively early, but as Tian Nufeng expected, the real cause of death was really difficult to find out. Her corpse traveled all the way down the river, fortunately not encountering a corpse-eating beast, but the water was sometimes turbulent, and bumps and bumps were inevitable, especially after passing a few small waterfalls on the way, and when she was found outside the mountain, she was not even recognizable.
If it weren't for the fact that the pursuers were close to the left, and Mrs. Qin had a few tokens on her body that could confirm her identity, she would not have been identified so quickly. As for the cause of death, of course, no one will doubt that she was saved all the way by someone who worked so hard, and finally died at the hands of the person who saved her.
When Ma Bangpin received the news, the body had already been collected and was on the way back. Ma Bangpin's biggest worry is that Mrs. Qin is still alive, Ma Tusi is one thing in front of Mrs. Qin, and in front of the new Pony Toast, she is the identity of her biological mother, as long as she is captured alive, she will definitely not die, that is a threat to him.
Now that Ma Bang has put down his thoughts, when he just reported the news to Ma Qiancheng, it was not easy to make a happy appearance. Ma Qiancheng listened to Ma Bangpin tell him about the situation, and sat dumbfounded for a while, two lines of tears gently sliding down his cheeks......
His mother didn't love him since he was a child, but after all, it was his mother, and Ma Qiancheng never complained. His mother betrayed his father with his second brother and framed him in prison, and after learning the truth of all this, he was also sad and resentful, but he still didn't want to hurt his mother. In any case, it was always the biological mother, and at this moment, there was only endless sorrow in his heart......
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
After walking out of the mountains, the process of Tian Nufeng and his party escaping south became easier, at least they could buy horses and hire cars, instead of being exhausted to the point of embarrassment, and the pursuers were limited to not in their own jurisdiction, and they had some scruples.
When they crossed the area of Da Lou Mountain and entered the Banzhou area, the pursuers disappeared completely, and they were able to have a chance to breathe. The news was quickly sent to Hailongtun, and they continued to hurry, but they were tired all the way, and it was inevitable that they would have to rest more, and they would only rush for half a day at most every day.
On this day, they arrived at Tongzhang, Tongzhang is known as "the gateway to northern Guizhou", "the key to Sichuan and Guizhou", after Tongzhang Pass, there are eight local officials appointed by Yang Yinglong, the Xuanwei Division of Banzhou, each to govern a domain. The area where they were staying that night was ruled by a prefect named Luo.
Chief Luo respectfully welcomed the third lady into his mansion and gave up the entire master bedroom area. Originally, the third lady had a great reputation in the Banzhou area, and since the death of Mrs. Zhang, it has been rumored that the position of Mrs. Zhangyin belongs to her.
After escaping into the territory of Banzhou, Ma Qiansi took filial piety with him, and only ate coarse tea and light rice every day, although there were not too many conditions for filial piety, but also to fulfill the filial piety of the son of man as much as possible. Now it was no exception, his residence was removed from the splendid silk weaving, and he slept on a hard bed, which was in vain for Chief Luo's good intentions.
Tian Henfeng is really like an amiable mother-in-law, who takes care of Ma Qiansi all the way, and often talks and enlightens, which makes Ma Qiansi grateful. Although he also knew that since he was Yang Yinglong's biological son, his wife would never be Mrs. Tian's biological daughter, and he still regarded her as his mother-in-law.
Tian Nufeng enlightened Ma Qiansi again in the evening, left his residence slowly, looked away, and saw that there was a light shining out of the building where Ye Xiaotian lived, and suddenly thought of that matter, so he moved lightly, wanting to turn to his residence, but only took two steps, but stopped and turned back to his residence......
Ye Xiaotian finished bathing, returned to the flower hall, the temperature of the tea made by the next person was just right, Ye Xiaotian held a cup of tea, sat on the chair and was stunned. He followed the stone pillar this time, but in fact, it didn't play a big role, and it should be arranged, and it had been laid out long before he went to Banzhou, but it was just ...... He felt that following Tian Henfeng's side was more difficult to expose than being by Yang Yinglong's side.
Now that he has returned to Banzhou, he doesn't know how long his undercover road will take, and he doesn't know how long Japan, which worships in the northwest and east, can support in front of the Ming army, and I don't know how Yang Yinglong plans to use his card.
Ye Xiaotian thought about it for a long time, because he had too little grasp of these news, and he couldn't figure out a reliable result, so he had to sigh and no longer bother himself.
"Tian Binfei should be being picked up from Tongren now, right? If he arrives, there will be someone to discuss, and the only thing I can do now is to play my role well, and not to be late for a business trip. ”
Ye Xiaotian thought of this, so he heard the door knock gently, Ye Xiaotian looked up, and the little girl who was standing in the corner of the hall walked over quickly and opened the door.
Under the lamp at the door, a beautiful woman is just like midnight.
Tian Nufeng stood with her hands in her hands, pretty, glanced at the hall, smiled, and her cheeks were swirled. She stepped in and said to the little maid in Tsing Yi: "Go out, Mrs. Ben has something to talk to Chief Ye!" ”
The little maid gave a blessing, and retreated, Tian Henfeng had one arm and big sleeves like wings, covered the door, and walked over, the tail of the skirt swayed like an amorous Xiangshui.
Ye Xiaotian has become more wary of this woman since he saw Tian Nufeng's ruthless methods, and he couldn't help but stand up nervously at this time: "This fox, what tricks are you going to do again?" (To be continued.) )
