Chapter 16 sixteen

Wang Huai was still eloquent at this time: "When Qin Shihuang first built the Great Wall, in order to prevent the people from knowing the 'Canglong Water Diversion Bureau', he burned books and deceived scholars to fool the people of the world. Many strange books have been destroyed. The Great Wall loses its role in geography when its dragon veins are exhausted, but it is used for border defense, and there is a situation of dynasty replacement." Wang Yunping asked: "The current Great Wall can no longer have that Does it have a mysterious effect?" Wang Huai said: "Mr. Xiayun said that although the Great Wall has lost its power to stabilize the country, its aura still exists. Unfortunately, it has been destroyed by wars and many of them are incomplete. The tail of the dragon has become a desolate desert. The reason is that the Qi is gone. If it is repaired and repaired, the head of the dragon will remain the same and the tail will not be broken. It will also have the effect of turning the desert into an oasis and maintaining the long-term fortune of the country. The "Longlong Water Diversion Bureau" still has some inspiration. Therefore, this dynasty pays special attention to the restoration of the Great Wall. , and even the Great Wall from the Yalu River in the east to Jiayuguan in the west, in addition to border defense, there may be other reasons for these reasons, which have deep meaning." Wang Yunping continued: "Looking along the way, the Great Wall does not seem to be going far away, but also There are parallel ones, but they are farther apart." Wang Huai said, "I heard from Mr. Xiayun that these are several 'accompanying dragons', which are used to protect the main dragon's veins. If the Great Wall stretches from Haikou to the bottom, the aura will be greatly enhanced. "Wang Huai's theory of the Great Wall made the guys feel like a cloud.Luo Kun secretly praised: "Mr. Wang is really knowledgeable!"

The caravan went on for another two days before entering the territory of the Jurchens.The Ming Dynasty once set up the Nuergandu Siwei Station in Kanto, and as the Jurchens gradually became stronger, the Nuergandu Siwei Station gradually lost its function.However, the business exchanges between the Jurchen tribes and the folks in the pass have not been interrupted for the time being. Goods such as silk, tea, handicrafts, and ironware in the pass are transported to the Jurchen tribes in exchange for cattle, horses, furs, medicinal materials and other Kanto specialties, especially in autumn.

When Wang Huai's caravan came to a checkpoint, they suddenly saw that the checkpoint was full of Jurchen soldiers and horses, and they were closely searching every person and every piece of goods that came out of the checkpoint. The atmosphere is more tense than ever.Everyone in the caravan didn't know why, and they were puzzled.After Wang Yunping went to pay the checkpoint tax, he came back and said to Wang Huai, "Uncle, it's nothing serious. It seems that the Jurchens are searching for something important." Wang Huai felt a little uneasy when he heard this.The caravan passed the checkpoint and continued on its way.When Luo Kun first arrived outside the Guandong, the scenery of the Guandong he saw along the way was completely different from that of the Central Plains, and his youthful heart naturally cheered up.The caravan traveled all the way, choosing densely populated towns as much as possible, and then looking for a horse shop to stay for a rest.

The caravan went forward for a few more days, and felt that the temperature was cooler than inside the pass, and there were more mountains and dense forests. Wang Huai, Huang Kui and others became nervous and walked vigilantly.In the afternoon, the caravan entered a plain area, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Zhang Lu started talking and laughing with a few fellows.At this moment, suddenly there was a big dust rising in front of him, and more than a hundred riders were coming towards him.When Huang Kui saw it, he exclaimed, "Horse thief! Be careful, everyone." All the men were shocked, and they all drew up their swords and guns, and surrounded the carriages, horses and goods.Although Wang Huai's face changed drastically at this time, he knew that he must remain calm at this time, and said loudly: "Everyone, don't panic, play by ear." In an instant, more than a hundred riders came in a storm, and immediately they were full of tough Mongolian men. Faced with people, dancing with swords and guns, menacing.At a distance of tens of meters from the caravan, the two leaders stopped their mounts, and one of them raised his hand, fifty or sixty riders were divided into two sides of the caravan, and they surrounded the people, horses, carts and goods in an instant.

Seeing that something was going wrong, Huang Kui bravely led his horse forward, cupped his hands and said, "I don't know what kind of heroes you are from?" Then he drew the single sword on his back.The man in black headed over there sneered, untied a huge hard bow from his horse, put on a long-feathered arrow, and pointed at Huang Kui and shouted "Hey!" At the sound of the bowstring, an arrow flew towards him .Huang Kui was shocked, and just about to raise his saber to block it, his arrow had arrived and was hitting the back of the single saber, but hearing a crisp sound of "Dang", the single saber broke in two.The shock made Huang Kui's right arm numb and he almost lost consciousness. He couldn't help throwing the other half of the handle of the saber, and he was terrified.All the guys were frightened immediately, and looked at each other pale.Luo Kun was secretly surprised: "What a powerful arrow!" He couldn't help worrying about the situation of the caravan.

The man in black suppressed everyone in the caravan with an arrow, and then retracted his giant bow.Another man in black shouted loudly: "Old customers passing by, listen carefully, we will not rob goods today, and we will not kill people, but please open the goods in the car and the packages on your body. On the ground, I’m looking for something, and I’ll leave after checking it out. If not, don’t blame me for making trouble.” Wang Huai was shocked when he heard this, knowing that the truck was full of good goods from Jiangnan, how could these robbers see it? There is no reason for robbery.Wang Huai has been in business for many years, and he is also a person who has experienced risks. He knows that he can only do what the other party wants at this time, otherwise disaster will happen immediately. Judging from the arrow just now, the other party is not an ordinary horse thief. Maybe he really wants to find one. thing.Wang Huai immediately ordered Wang Yunping: "Do as they want, unpack and unpack." Wang Yunping hesitated for a moment, but seeing Wang Huai's resolute words, he had to turn around and say to the guys: "Unpack and unpack, spread it out on the ground and put it away." Be careful not to damage it." Hearing this, the guys got off their horses and disassembled them one after another, and all of a sudden, there were piles of colorful silk, various utensils, bags of tea... all kinds of goods were spread all over the floor, and it was very frustrating. dazzling.Seeing this, Luo Kun exclaimed in his heart: "Good guy! So many good things!" He even became worried for the caravan.

At this time, the leader of the man in black waved his hand, and dozens of people behind him came forward.When they got close, they dismounted one after another and ran towards the goods.Wang Huai closed his eyes and thought: "It's over!" When he saw these black-clothed masked men, he only glanced at the scattered and easy-to-find things, no matter how high or low they were, and ignored them. The big item, after checking it, threw it aside, without the slightest intention of looting, it was really trying to find something.When Wang Huai and the others saw it, they were all surprised, not knowing what these people were looking for.Those men in black rummaged for a long time, but they seemed to find nothing, and after carefully searching the things that everyone and every horse had brought, they still couldn't find anything, so they whistled, abandoned the messy goods on the ground, and took nothing. They each flew on their horses and stepped back.One of them whispered a few words to the leading masked man, who nodded, and then said to this side: "Excuse me!" With a wave of his hand, more than a hundred horses galloped, and in a blink of an eye, the dust and smoke disappeared, and the group of robbers He went by himself.
