Lu Heng frowned, raised his head, looked at Chu Xuliang, and asked in a deep voice.
If my guess is true, then if people don't know its poisonous nature, once this poisonous flower spreads, it will be fatal.
"It was a humble deployment. I found it accidentally when searching for Japanese people who had escaped on Purple Mountain!" Seeing the military advisor's face darken, Chu Xuliang quickly said seriously; "The number is not very large!"
"Then, did you find anything near the datura flower?" Lu Heng said.
"Well, a white skeleton was found. He has been dead for a long time!" Chu Xuliang thought of the frightened and excited expression of the soldier who reported the news, and immediately recalled the situation at that time; "And, according to his humble position,
My subordinates reported that there were no signs of fighting at the scene, and the bones seemed to be a suicide!"
"Oh, that person should have been poisoned because he was not prepared enough!" Lu Heng thought to himself and said to himself.
"Then, what else did you find?" After ruling out the possibility of homicide, Lu Heng thought about it carefully, his mind was racing like lightning, and he asked.
"No more!" Chu Xuliang thought about it carefully, raised his head, and said to the military advisor.
Lu Heng nodded, stretched out his hand, and rolled up his sleeves in concentration. After walking a few steps, he turned around and looked at Chu Xuliang and said, "Where are those flowers?"
"Hey, we burned you down!" Chu Xuliang said with a smile.
Obviously, this guy knew very well that datura flowers were inedible.
So, letting the soldier save the only one and give it to Sasaki is completely petty revenge.
This guy!
After hearing Chu Xuliang's words, Lu Heng couldn't help but look at him speechlessly, and laughed and cursed in his heart, but he wasn't angry at all.
After all, whether Sasaki is dead or alive is not very important to him.
What you need to know has been laid out clearly. What you don’t know, as long as you think so, no one will doubt it.
Now that the source of the poison has been eliminated, Lu Heng's worries have also subsided.
"That Datura flower is highly poisonous. Be sure not to touch it, or even get close to it. Later, go and have someone put up a notice to tell the people of Jiangning that once traces of Datura flower are found, they must be treated thoroughly."
Eradicate it! Leave no future troubles!" Considering the scientific research technology of this era, it was impossible to extract useful medicines from Datura flowers. Lu Heng thought about it and decided to eradicate this thing, which was called a demon flower by the people in the Western Regions.
"Yes, military advisor!" Chu Xuliang clasped his fists and responded in a deep voice. He turned around, called in a soldier and gave him instructions before letting him leave.
"Master, what should I do with this Sasaki?" Beside him, Agui walked over, stretched out his hand, and took a look at Sasaki's eyes. He saw that his eyes were cloudy, and he was indeed unconscious. He turned around and looked at Lu Hengdao.
.
"This bastard has harmed my people in the Zhou Dynasty, and his crime is unpardonable!" Lu Heng turned around and stared at Sasaki. In front of his eyes, the scene where Cang Xue blocked his face was repeated again. Thinking of Cang Xue lying in his arms,
There was a shocking stain of blood hanging on the white cheek, and the tragic situation of being as breathless as a gossamer, made me feel a little pain in my heart.
"Execution by Lingchi!" Lu Heng glanced at this man with cold eyes, said a word, turned around and walked out of the tent.
After leaving the camp, I spent a week in the military camp.
Lu Heng said goodbye to Chu Xuliang and took Agui with him, and the two of them rode towards Jiangning.
Entering the city, the busy streets were busy and crowded. On both sides of the streets, the cries of vendors could be heard.
Restaurants, restaurants, and teahouses have all started operating.
The waiter with a towel on his shoulders stood at the door enthusiastically, greeting the customers. The merchants coming and going looked up at the wine flag hanging on the head of the store, rubbed their chins, shook their heads and said something like this.
The food served in this small shop is the best in Jiangning. It would be a pity not to taste it. Then, he led a group of people into the restaurant.
In the afternoon, the sun has set in the west. The sunshine is not so dazzling, and there are more and more pedestrians on the street.
The streets were crowded, so they could no longer ride horses. Lu and Heng got off their horses, then led their horses and walked slowly on the street.
Because the Spring Festival is approaching, most of the people on the roadside are selling New Year's goods.
Firecrackers, Spring Festival couplets, and candies are all available. Walking on the street, taking a deep breath, you can smell the sweet smell in the air.
"Buy some New Year's goods and get ready for the New Year!" Seeing the familiar jewelry store, Lu Heng stopped, smiled, turned around, and said to Agui, the two tied up their horses and raised their feet.
Go inside.
"Hey, sir, please come in!" After not seeing each other for a year, the shop owner was still as hospitable as ever. When Lu Heng and the two came in, the shop owner rushed to the door and welcomed them in.
I saw the most talented man in Jiangning actually came to the store.
The shop owner's eyes lit up and he quickly stepped forward and greeted him warmly.
"Ha, hello, boss!" Lu Heng clasped his fists and smiled, then walked inside.
"Mr. Lu, you haven't been here for a long time!" Boss Shek said with a smile as he walked away.
A year ago, Lu Heng was still a down-and-out scholar, wearing a shabby long gown and a confidant. Now, after not seeing him for a year, his identity and reputation have undergone earth-shaking changes.
"Oh, could it be that the store has something very good and specially reserved for Lu?" Lu Heng stopped, turned around, and looked at the store owner funny.
Well······
The shop owner's face suddenly stiffened and he laughed dryly: "Master Lu, you are making fun of a villain!"
Last year, this scholar stole his golden hairpin with a couplet. Even now, the shop owner is still feeling pain.
Now, seeing the scholar showing the same deceitful smile again, the shop owner's heart suddenly jumped a few times, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and smiled happily.
"If Mr. Lu is interested in something, feel free to take it!" The shop owner was generous at first, and then said with a smile, "However, I have one more thing to tell Mr. Lu!"
"Oh?" When Lu Heng heard this, he looked at the shop owner who had beads of sweat on his forehead in amusement, "What's the matter?"
"Mr. Lu, do you still remember the couplet from last year?" The shop owner pointed at the shop mysteriously and said in a low voice.
Seeing Lu Heng nod, the shop owner smiled and said, "The person who made the couplet sent someone to deliver a second couplet a few days ago. It is hanging in the shop right now. Sir, why don't you take a look?"
"Oh, is this happening?" Lu Heng looked at the store owner in surprise. Seeing him nodding, he smiled and said, "That's fine, I'd like to ask the store owner to lead the way!"
"You're welcome, sir!" The shop owner was flattered and cupped his hands, lifted up the front of his gown, and ran in quickly.
After entering the store, the store owner pointed to the long couplet on the wall and said to Lu Heng, "Sir, please take a look, this is it!"
Lu Heng nodded and hummed. He turned around, followed the direction pointed by the store, raised his head, and looked quietly at the exquisite, hehe, and very interesting couplet on the wall.
After browsing up and down and seeing the artistic conception and momentum on the other side, Lu Heng couldn't help but frown. A mysterious smile appeared on his calm face.
The first couplet from last year may have been an unintentional work by the other party. But now, I just heard from the store that this person specially sent someone to deliver another first couplet. Moreover, the artistic conception and momentum are all excellent works, but only the one that came out
A couplet, the meaning of taking the exam is beyond words.
The first couplet says: "It is connected to Songyue Mountain in the south and Wushan Mountain in the north. It is surrounded by natural obstacles in the west and east, and it is overwhelming the two rivers and the eagle hunting ground."
This couplet...
Haha, quite domineering!
Lu Heng looked at the couplet quietly. After thinking for a moment, he turned around and said to the shop owner with a smile, "This couplet, well, it's difficult!"
"Hey, it's difficult!" The store owner seemed to have known that Lu Heng would say this. After hearing Lu Heng say that the couplet was difficult, he was not very surprised. He stroked his goatee and smiled and said, "Then when I send the couplet,
People say that if Mr. Lu can’t retaliate, then the old accounts and the new ones will be settled together! Also, the golden hairpin that Mr. Lu took away last year must be returned to the villain!”
Hearing what the store said, Lu Heng's eyes flashed slightly, he rubbed his chin and thought for a while, then raised his head, looked at the store and said, "Then, what if I come out?"
"The man said that if Mr. Lu comes out, the man will give the things in the young master's hands to the young master!" The shopkeeper seemed to not understand what the man said. He scratched his head and said in confusion.
"That's all?" Lu Heng's eyes flashed with disbelief, and he looked at the store with a half-smile.
As for what the store owner was talking about, Lu Heng naturally knew what it was.
When Lu Heng looked at the shopkeeper like this, he smiled and said with a bit of pain, "He said, he said, if the young master comes out, then the villain's shop will belong to the young master!"
"Yeah!" Hearing this, Lu Heng smiled slightly and hummed softly.
"Mr. Lu, you..." Seeing Lu Heng smiling but not answering, the store owner's eyes lit up.
It seems that the golden hairpin I lost last year may really come back!
Before the shopkeeper was happy for a moment, he saw the scholar, raised his head again and glanced at the couplet, smiled slightly, turned around and said to him: "That's it, then please trouble the shopkeeper to get the banknotes!"
"
"Ah?" The store owner's obscene smile suddenly froze on his face. He stared at the scholar in front of him with a confident smile on his face, and was so surprised that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear for a long time.
Agui's eyes flashed with golden light. After looking around at the gold and silver jewelry in the jewelry store, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He turned around and saw the store owner, who was still standing there in a daze. He felt anxious and immediately
He stretched out his hand and pushed the store owner back to the counter; "Ah what, didn't you listen to the young master? Take the banknotes quickly!"
When the shop owner had a grimace on his face, he gingerly handed over the pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
Agui impatiently took the wooden plate, put it on the table, and polished the ink for Lu Heng himself.
"Master, pen!" Agui held up the brush and brought it to Lu Heng, saying with a flattering smile.
When this guy was laughing, he didn't forget to turn his head and wink at the store owner with a gloating look on his face.
