Dao Fruit

"Run quickly!"

"The pirates have entered the city!"

"Go! Go!"

When Cui Sujing opened his eyes, he saw a chaotic crowd, and his people were no longer sitting at the table in the teahouse. The pen, ink, paper and inkstone in his hand had long disappeared, but there was an obvious piece on the cuffs and the hem of his clothes. The ink stains seemed to be caused by knocking over the inkstone and being stained by the ink. \u003c

However, there is no relevant impression in Cui Sujing's memory.

He looked around blankly and found that he was sitting on a street corner, with a lot of dust on his clothes. Next to him were several friends he had talked with in the tea shop before, but they were all sweaty and their clothes were very messy. Looking embarrassed.

As soon as these people saw Cui Sujing open his eyes, they eagerly spoke——

"Brother Cui, you are finally awake. If you don't wake up, there is nothing we can do."

"Yes, usually you will wake up as long as you take away the paper you use as a medium. Why is it that we are carrying it on our backs this time, but there is still no response, as if it has passed out."

These words made Cui Sujing more and more confused, but looking back on the two words before, he could still guess a little bit.

"Brother Chen, Brother Zhu, you..." In confusion, he was about to ask, but was suddenly interrupted by a voice——

"Boy! Don't block the road. If you get trampled to death, you can't blame others!"

Following the sound, a big man who looked particularly strong came with a fierce look on his face. He glared at Cui Sujing and others, and said angrily: "What are you doing blocking here? Leave quickly! A squad of pirates has already Come here. It's not far behind me. If you don't leave, it will be too late! It's unreasonable for you to kill me one by one."

His ferocious look made all the Confucian scholars tremble in their hearts, fearing his ferocity, but in this situation, they dared to get angry but dare not speak out.

But on the other side, after the aftermath of the integration of the two networks. Cui Sujing's brain has been further developed, and his vision and feelings of seeing people have changed significantly. He can actually see it at a glance. This strong man had a fierce face and a warm heart. He seemed to be intimidating them, but in fact, while revealing key information, he urged them to leave as soon as possible.

This is the thought. Cui Sujing stood up from the ground. He saluted the strong man and said, "Thank you for reminding me, brother. Everyone, let's leave quickly."

The strong man snorted coldly, glanced at Cui Sujing, nodded slightly, and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but when he looked back, he restrained his voice. He took a step and left, too busy to take care of himself at this time. Being able to make audible reminders is the limit.

When the others heard this, they all came to their senses and started to move forward one after another, following the flow of people, pushing and crowding.

In the chaos, Cui Sujing finally sorted out her thoughts and couldn't help but ask her friends around her: "Really pirates entering the city?"

"It should be so. The people who reported the order were beating gongs and crossing the street, just like a few years ago! It's just that among the people rushing to the city, there were more flags. Some people who know them said they were the symbols of the White Lotus Sect."

"We were on the second floor of the tea shop and saw people hacking away with knives in the distance. Many people were killed. The death was miserable!"

"That's right, I ran away after hearing the screams. Since I couldn't wake Brother Cui, I had to take turns carrying him on his back."

At this point, they looked ashamed, but they were exhausted just now, and Cui Sujing didn't wake up, so they had the idea of ​​leaving it behind. People at this time took etiquette, justice and shame very seriously, and it would be difficult to change without going through various changes. With this kind of thinking, these friends of Cui Sujing usually study for study and have a relatively pure mind.

Cui Sujing glanced at it, and his brain was developed to understand the general reason, but he did not explain it.

He knew very well that the people in front of him didn't usually practice the Six Arts and had average physiques. If they could carry him here, they were almost reaching their limit. If they continued, they might all fall.

I ignored these, but still had questions in my mind. While walking quickly, I asked: "Why did the pirates appear in Changle Mansion? It's not that the mighty army deployed along the coast. They defeated the pirates a few years ago and also destroyed several Fusang." A den of thieves? In recent years, no pirates have dared to come to Changle. Also, why does this matter involve the White Lotus Sect? Wasn’t this sect exterminated by the imperial court? "

When asked this question, several friends could not answer, but a rough voice came from the side: "Why? It's not the result of the combined efforts of the officials from Lingnan Road and the White Lotus Sect!"

"Master Guan and the White Lotus Sect are joining forces?" Hearing this, Cui Sujing's heart skipped a beat. He followed the sound and saw a ferocious face. It was the strong man who reminded them just now.

The strong man sneered and said: "Yes, who do you think is behind the sudden outbreak of pirates? It is the government of Lingnan Road!"

"The government promotes pirates? What good does it do to them? After all, these are stains on the official career. In the past, there were officials who, in order to shirk responsibility, slandered the people as pirates just to escape responsibility. How could they take the initiative to promote it?" Cui Sujing As he walked, he thought about it, frowned, and couldn't help but say, "Besides, what does this have to do with the White Lotus Sect? It's really confusing. I hope my brother can explain it clearly."

"What's not easy to understand?" The strong man lowered his voice, "The officialdom of Lingnan Road has long surrendered to the White Lotus Sect. The order has been sent to the sect, and there has been an uprising!"

"The officialdom surrendered to the White Lotus Sect? There was an uprising?" Cui Sujing felt that his head was getting more and more confusing, but there was a thread that vaguely connected the clues, forming a vague concept in his heart.

However, there are some clues that I can't figure out.

However, how could he think clearly in the chaotic crowd? What's more, he also cared about the identity of this strong man. It was obviously not an accident that the other party could say this.

"I wonder what your name is, brother? How do you know this?"

After Cui Sujing asked this question, the strong man grinned and said, "I said I was a deserter from Lingnan Mansion. Do you believe it or not?"

"Deserter?" Cui Sujing was stunned for a moment. He carefully looked at the strong man's appearance and became more and more uncertain about paying attention.

The strong man added: "Don't worry, there are not a hundred but eighty deserters like me in the west. We also discovered some secrets unintentionally, saw the collusion between the White Lotus Sect and the government, and did some things unintentionally , which prevented their evil plan from succeeding and forced them to take action a few hours ago! "

Cui Sujing calmed down at this time, and somehow gained trust in the strong man, so he said: "To attack in advance? So, the demon from the White Lotus Sect has already planned to attack and is making preparations? But, even so, brother There’s no need to tell me these things, right?”

"As expected of a scholar, in fact, I have told many people along the way." The strong man's answer was somewhat beyond Cui Sujing's expectation, "But inside, that is you, who seems to be a smart person who can deduce Something."

"Brother, are you going to spread this matter to the whole world? Aren't you afraid..." Cui Sujing asked tentatively.

"If I don't spread the word and only a few of our soldiers know about it, it will be a disaster. If we are killed, we will be silenced. But if more people know about it, killing and silencing it will not be worthwhile, and I will be safe. "When the strong man said this, he lowered his voice a little, "Scholar, I see that you have a kind face, so I would like to remind you that if you want to be safe, leave Lingnan Road as soon as possible. Up and down this road, I don't know how many people have worshiped the White Lotus Sect. I heard that even Jiangnan Road and Jiannan Road are involved!"

"So powerful? How is this possible?" Cui Sujing was frightened by these words. His Cui family is rich, but his official power is not strong. If there is a change in the entire Lingnan Dao officialdom, then he The Cui family will definitely be affected.

The strong man thought he didn't believe it, so he said: "We don't know the specifics, but when I was on the run, a colleague passed on the news that after the White Lotus Sect started an uprising in advance, they immediately divided into four armies to conquer the swamps, I don’t know whether it’s true or false about Jiannan, Jiangnan and Hailu, but I think it’s not groundless, and I can guess the truth from this.”

"Four-way army? Is it possible that even the military camp is controlled by the White Lotus Sect?" Cui Sujing finally became a little panicked when he heard this. If he talked about other things, he felt that it had nothing to do with him, but once the four-way conquest army was true, it would be personal As a result, the caravans led by his father and brother were on the sea route and the swamp respectively.

Of course, he didn't fully believe what the strong man said, but there were screams and shouts of killing coming from behind him from time to time, and the strong man next to him spoke with certainty. Although he didn't think carefully about the logic inside, there was no contradiction.

"The military camp should not be completely controlled, but some generals must have surrendered to Bai Lian. Those of us who eat military rations don't have much loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. The imperial court has been in arrears with military pay for many years and is grateful for the kindness of several generals. After all, rebelling against the imperial court may not necessarily Even if we die, if we don’t obey the generals, we won’t even find food. If our lives are not threatened, we will not take risks..."

As the strong man spoke, his expression changed, as if he saw someone, and he changed the topic: "Okay, having said so much, I hope you can take care of yourself, I have to leave first."

There was no need for him to explain where he was going. He turned around, twisted a few times in the crowd, and then his strong body disappeared into the depths of the crowd.

Only then did Cui Sujing realize that this man was also skilled in martial arts. However, at this moment, he didn't have the time to pay attention to these things. His mind was filled with the few words he just said, and he followed a few friends towards his home.

"Are these four armies real or fake?"

Cui Sujing's doubts did not last long. The next day, the Cui family clan's news channels proved the authenticity of the Fourth Route Army.

At the same time, the officialdom of Lingnan Province rebelled and the news of the rise of the four armies to march together also reached the court and fell into the hands of different people through several channels.

The Xingjing court learned about it, and the Imperial Envoy Office on Jiannan Road also got the news.

After this, many changes took place. (To be continued...)
