Chapter 24: The Great Good

"Lord Teng, then I'll say it. Gu Juan sorted out his thoughts and said slowly, "Are you going to report this expedition truthfully after Lord Teng goes back?"

Tengyuan was silent.

"In this way, let's assume that Lord Teng reports truthfully, then how to write it on the official document above, to summarize it simply, although it may not sound good, but in fact, a few sentences are enough. ”

Gu Juan took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and then said, "The 100-member army of the Zhennan battalion went into the mountains to hunt tigers, and went around the deserted village at night, and it has been two days since they came out, and most of the soldiers have disappeared mysteriously. ”

Tengyuan was still silent, and the hand holding the knife was full of green muscles, but he had actually approved of Gu Juan's words in his heart.

Although this is very plain and sounds very unpleasant, but the actual situation is true, even if he goes to find a master to polish it, on this basis, he can't change the facts that have happened.

"If I were in the position of an adult, I would feel like I was on the edge of an abyss and walking on thin ice, and I wouldn't dare to say it anyway, let alone resort to words to write like this. ”

Tengyuan's pupils shrank, he knew that what Gu Juan said was the truth, and he really had to write the newspaper as it was, and the newspaper would be sent all the way to the Governor's Mansion, and those officials would think that this was simply nonsense, nonsense, and it was his Tengyuan who was crazy, or he wanted to shirk responsibility.

Even if there are these surviving soldiers and the prince Xu Yuan as witnesses, according to the information he has learned, almost everyone here has seen and heard very differently.

What's even more terrifying is that in addition to him, their memories of the activities in the deserted village are hazy, and their spirits have also been greatly affected.

And most importantly, the mysterious and mysterious deserted village has disappeared mysteriously, which has lost the most important physical evidence.

In this way, perhaps except for the prince Xu Yuan and the mysterious little girl, all of them will be questioned repeatedly, and the more questions they ask, the bigger the flaws will become, until they finally knock him into the ground and never turn over.

"You actually have a relatively clear memory of a part of that village?" After a long time, Tengyuan broke the silence again, but suddenly asked an unrelated question.

Gu Juan had been prepared for this, and said in a low voice, "At first, it seemed to be muddy, but later, when life and death were at stake, Fu Zhi's spiritual comprehension and cultivation became a family heirloom internal breathing exercise, and since then, he has gradually gotten rid of that state of confusion, but there are still some details that I can't remember clearly." ”

It turned out that he happened to have one foot in the door of inner breath, hmph, at this age, it was difficult to get started on the line between life and death, and his family inheritance was not a good product.

"Your guess is not bad, after the internal breath is successful, the martial artist condenses a breath of true qi, not only to increase the power of the shot, but more importantly, the whole person from the essence of the spirit, body, will, perception and many other aspects have begun to change, that is, the beginning of cognitive training of the true self, it is normal to be able to maintain a certain level of sobriety in that environment. ”

Teng Yuan believed most of Gu Juan's words almost instantly, and the hand holding the knife finally let go at this moment, "Then what do you say?"

There was no question about the internal breathing exercises, and Gu Juan was also secretly relieved, and immediately threw away a large number of prepared messy texts copied from "Nine Yin", "Nine Yang", "Tai Chi" and "Morality", and said slowly, "Adults know that in many cases, it is better to do well than to say well. ”

"This matter needs to be discussed by you and me. Tengyuan immediately ordered the team to stop and rest, and he took Gu Juan and walked slowly down the official road to a secluded place.

Gu Juan looked left and right, the thoughts about people's hearts flashed in his mind, he adjusted his posture slightly, and said solemnly, "My lord is in a high position in the camp in the south of the town, and he must know where there are bandits whose whereabouts are mysterious and difficult to exterminate. ”

You go on. ”

"My lord, this time we set out on an expedition, entered the outside of the Broken Mountain Range/Perimeter, when looking for the traces of the tigers, we inadvertently found a large number of bandits who resisted the imperial court, and finally won after a fierce battle, but in the process ......of pursuit, we encountered a deep mountain poison barrier, and all the soldiers were mentally exhausted and were poisoned by the barrier, and their minds were confused."

"As for why those bandits appeared in the Broken Mountains, they may have a treasure map found in the pile of old papers, maybe they hid in the mountains to practice martial arts, or maybe they are ready to set up a secret camp here, ready to accumulate the power of rebellion......"

Tengyuan was stunned by the things that Gu Ju broke out one after another, but after carefully connecting everything together and thinking about it, he actually tasted a little bit of taste.

"What about the tiger, do you want to mention it?" Tengyuan's mind began to come alive.

"It must be mentioned that our purpose is to hunt tigers, and if we don't even see tigers, it will be a bit too much...... However, the time of its appearance needs to be placed after the battle with the bandits, and the soldiers saw the white tiger in the poison barrier during the pursuit, but at this time, everyone was injured and was unable to fight again. ”

"I have two last questions, and the two hardest ones. ”

Tengyuan's hand holding the knife loosened, tightened, and finally left the handle completely, "First, you must know that there are many people, and it is not easy to make so many people have a unified voice. Second, if the above sends a brigade of masters to investigate the mountain......"

"Let's talk about the second question first, don't forget, you really encountered a large number of black-clothed people chasing and killing, and there are really giant tigers roaring in the mountains and forests, and the bodies of the black-clothed people and the dart board executioners are now completely decomposed. ”

"As for the matter of unified caliber, it really needs to be planned carefully, which is why I am in a hurry to find an adult now. ”

Gu Juan put his hands behind his back and smiled slightly, "After careful observation, I found that everyone is still in a considerable degree of trance, as long as they can be hinted and guided at this time, it is easy to deepen the impression we need them to deepen, and even change their memory." ”

"Of course, we should not intervene too much, so as not to expose flaws, so it is best to use the mode of post-war reflection and exchange meetings, and adults only need to prompt them to order a few words at key points at that time. ”

"Please rest assured, Lord Teng, before I came to you, I had already tested two people, and this method is feasible. But the only thing to pay attention to is the unconscious Luoshang girl......"

"I know the extent of her injury, she will never wake up in a short time, and when she wakes up, everything will be a foregone conclusion, so there is nothing to worry about...... So, what is a post-war reflection exchange?"

Teng Yuan listened silently, his face changed several times one after another, and finally sighed violently in Gu Ju's detailed explanation.

That's a great thing. ”
