It turns out that this guy is also named Wu Sheng. It seems that having the same name is a necessary condition for wearing it?
Looking at my own cultivation, this body is in perfect condition with no signs of injury. Was it repaired because of my time travel?
But the repair was done, but the whole body's true energy was completely lost, as if it had never been cultivated. This is a bit cheating.
Let's not mention why we are repairing. The most important thing now is how to save our lives. After having caused such a big disaster and assassinating Zhao Yuan, the doctor of Chu State, we all know with our own feet that Ying Du will be searching for him everywhere.
He inherited a lot of scattered memories from his predecessor. As an assassin "once", Wu Sheng certainly knew how his colleagues would be treated if they were caught.
Cutting off the nose to show the public, cutting off the feet and parading in the street are all minor things. What about castration, drying of human flesh with wax, etc. It makes me shudder when I think about it.
What's even more terrifying is that in my memory, a colleague failed to assassinate the Central Military Assistant in the Jin Kingdom. After being caught, he was put into an empty copper bull and lit with fire underneath. The screams came from the nostrils of the bronze bull, which looked very much like a bull.
Moo.
Thinking of this, Wu Sheng immediately broke into a cold sweat. He could no longer stay in this pavilion.
Although Bailong Pond is an abandoned garden, this wooden pavilion stands beside the pond, which is very conspicuous. Chu people will definitely find this place if they don't enter Bailong Pond.
Wu Sheng quickly got up and walked south along the path covered with weeds - to the south of Bailong Pond is the Guorenfang in Yingdu.
There are four Guorenfangs in Yingdu. They are all Chinese people, that is, the citizens of the Chu State. They live in the fourth class below the monarch, ministers, officials, and scholars. They are decent and good people. Their status is much higher than that of barbarians and slaves. They are the cornerstone of the country.
.
The Guoren Square is different from where the officials and scholars of Qing live. There are many Chinese people and there are many houses and courtyards in the square. It seems very messy and it is easier to hide. After Wu Sheng entered the capital of Ying two days ago, he specifically checked this area.
area, chosen as an escape route.
When I rushed to the wall, I heard noises outside the wall. Through the empty windows on the wall, I could faintly see soldiers walking back and forth everywhere in the Chinese Square, and some even hung notices on the wall of Baibi Square.
The people in the square were probably searching for him. The way out here was blocked, so Wu Sheng left decisively.
To the west is a fruit forest, which belongs to the monarch or a minister. This is the second escape route. But when I rushed over to take a look, I saw that there were also people in the forest, and this road was blocked.
To the north is where Doctor Qing and his disciples live. Not to mention how many monks and masters are hidden there, but those high walls are like forts. It is definitely not something that I can climb now.
As for the east, there is a large area of fields in the city of Yingdu, which is open and unprotected, with no hiding place.
In desperation, he had no choice but to go under a stone bridge in the northeast of the abandoned garden and temporarily hide here. When Wu Sheng entered the garden two days ago, it happened to be an autumn rain, and he took shelter under this stone bridge.
There are drainage holes at the piers on the left and right sides of the stone bridge, forming inner holes that are invisible from the outside.
After hiding in, I found a set of clothes. I remembered that I had kept them just in case, and they came in handy at this moment, so I hurriedly changed into them.
The original linen clothes were dug in a hole nearby and buried - God knows how he came back from Shangyuan, and I don't know if he was seen by anyone on the way. It would be safer to change clothes.
The wooden box containing the pothos was also buried in the pit. If you were really caught, having this thing on your body would be the source of disaster. No matter how reluctant you were to give it up, you could only bury it at this time and leave a mark on the spot until you wait.
I will take it out again if I have the chance in the future.
After hurriedly packing up, when I returned to the bridge, I could already hear the shouts of Yingdu guards rushing into Bailongchi to search, and the barking of dogs.
Having a dog would be troublesome, so Wu Sheng secretly screamed "Bitterness". Being nervous, he had no choice but to place his hope in the water of the pool.
Bailong Pond was the former residence of the Ruo'ao family, who was once very powerful in the Chu Kingdom. After the Ruo'ao family was exterminated, it was abandoned and no one had cleaned it. The pond was full of duckweeds, weeds, and reeds.
Wu Sheng went straight into the water and waded deep into the water. When he was about seven or eight feet away from the shore, only his head could be seen. He did not dare to go deeper. There was sticky mud under his feet. Going deeper
The danger is great.
Suddenly, he had an idea and broke off a reed and stuffed it into his mouth, so that he could sink into the water at the critical moment.
Not long after, the Bailong Pond became lively. Many guards searched around the garden. Under the guidance of several hounds, the guards quickly found the place where Wu Sheng buried his clothes. Thinking of the pothos plant in the wooden box, Wu Sheng
I felt extremely distressed.
The guards soon found themselves under the stone bridge. Fortunately, they left, otherwise they would have become the turtle in the urn.
While he was still frightened, some of the guards stepped on the waves and went up to the pool.
Master, this is a master!
Although Wu Sheng's cultivation level has been cleared, his vision is still there. Those who can climb up and cross the water are at least in the realm of refining gods. Even when his cultivation level is intact, it is not easy to deal with it.
Upon seeing this, Wu Sheng immediately squatted down and submerged his whole body into the water, relying only on the reed pole to breathe.
The monk who was stepping on the water carefully inspected the water, while Wu Sheng slowly moved behind a piece of reeds, trying to hide his figure.
Bailong Pond is not big, but it is not small either. The water surface is about a hundred acres, and duckweeds, lotus leaves, and reeds are everywhere. As long as the head is not exposed, it is difficult to find it. It is a pity that this is a stagnant water, and it is completely replenished by rainwater. Otherwise, Wu
Sheng had already looked for an exit and left.
The monk searched the surface of the water and walked around the pond for countless laps. It took him half an hour to give up.
Wu Sheng hid under the water in fear. After a long time, he slowly emerged. Bailong Pond had long since returned to silence, and the guards had left.
Returning to the bridge again, Wu Sheng was shivering from the cold, but he didn't dare to make too much noise, let alone light a fire. He could only take off his clothes, wring them dry, and hang them to dry on the bridge piers.
I kept moving naked under the bridge, still unable to bear the autumn weather and hunger.
At night, Wu Sheng plucked up the courage to sneak to the south garden wall and take a long look. Seeing that the guards who were searching for the Chinese people's square had withdrawn, and every household was closed and resting, it was quiet, so he jumped out of the wall.
I sneakily lurked to the nearest house. The courtyard wall was very short. I turned over and went in. I reached out to take out the clothes hanging on the bamboo pole and put them on. Only then did I feel a bit warm.
Suddenly, I smelled an alluring fragrance in my nose. I looked up and saw some dried meat hanging from the eaves. I moved my index fingers. I couldn't resist my hunger, so I picked a bunch off on my tiptoes.
When he was about to leave, he saw the wall in the square with a notice hanging on it. He hesitated for a moment, then bravely walked up to it.
Looking carefully by the light of two torches on the side of the wall, the notice made of wooden sign turned out to be a sea arrest document for hunting down assassins. The assassin to be hunted was Wu Sheng, with a reward of ten gold.
Ten gold refers to ten yi gold. This kind of gold ingot is as big as a cat's paw. It is made by Jixia Academy, which is in charge of the world's spiritual practice. It contains a small amount of spiritual materials and is difficult to imitate. Jixia Academy also strictly prohibits imitation by other countries.
Gold can be used to purchase spiritual materials from the Academy and pay tribute to the Emperor of Zhou in Luoyi. There are many coins in the princes and countries, but the currency that prevails in the world is love gold.
In Chu State, ant nose money is commonly used. One thousand pieces can be exchanged for one piece of gold, and ten pieces of gold is a lot of money. When I first started out, the price of taking orders was only 300 pieces of money.
When he looked at the portrait engraved on the wooden sign, Wu Sheng blinked and suddenly smiled.
