   Gu Qingyun's disappearance at the border of Dacheng must have fled into the territory of Hu State. Neither Liufan nor Chu Xiaoyun can directly track down his whereabouts. country spies.

The matter of the Hu people in Dacheng is over, next, Jie Xun will rush back to the capital to report to his orders; Chu Xiaoyun will return to Hejing County to report to his orders, both of them will go south, but they can go to Qinchuan together.

All the way south, when we arrived at Qinchuan, we saw that the city was filled with smoke and smelled of incense and paper money; many people in the city raised white flags and mourned; the whole city was shrouded in a sad atmosphere.

"It's so unreasonable that so many people in this city are organizing funerals today." The arrester's intuition made Chu Xiaoyun keenly aware that there must be something weird, "I'll find a local citizen to ask." Chu Xiaoyun

said His intuition was too keen and his movements were too fast, so he didn't notice Xie Xun's frown and serious expression.

"Fellow townsman, may I ask what happened in Qinchuan City? Why are there so many people attending funerals at the same time? There is a sound of mourning everywhere?" Chu Xiaoyun stopped an old farmer who was carrying firewood and asked.

The old farmer put down the firewood, glanced at Chu Xiaoyun and the other troops in uniform, and murmured sadly: "Aren't you officials working in our Qinchuan Mansion? On New Year's Eve this year, the barbarians invaded the Liangzhou frontier army, causing countless deaths and injuries. The villagers are all seeing off their loved ones. Miserable, miserable. I am also picking firewood to go back to send the spirit of my son, I hope my son can wait for me." After saying that, the old farmer's bloodshot red and swollen eyes were full of hope

. Looking at Chu Xiaoyun and his party, he finally turned his attention to Xie Xun, who seemed to have the highest official position: "I don't know if the imperial court will take care of us."

His eyes were full of expectation.

Jie Xun, a senior member of the fourth rank, bowed his hands to an old farmer and said: "The imperial court will not forget the sacrifices of the soldiers on the border, and will definitely take care of it."

The reason why he came to Qinchuan with Chu Xiaoyun was for this reason.

"That's good, that's good." A ray of hope flashed in the old farmer's eyes, he muttered words, and staggered forward with his load.

Before Chu Xiaoyun could fully react, Jie Xun withdrew his saluting hands, clenched his sword tightly, and explained: "General Ding, the former guard of Liangzhou, is from Qinchuan, and most of his subordinates are Qinchuan's children. On New Year's Eve, Hu People attacked our Liangzhou defenders, and the soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and General Ding also took the lead."

Chu Xiaoyun remembered the news about the battle in Liangzhou that he had heard at Wei Chengyi before leaving Beijing, and the situation in front of him seemed to be borderline. The war situation spread to the people.

Facing the voices of mourners all over the city, Chu Xiaoyun didn't regret it, but he couldn't do much with a small headhunter. He could only send some money as comfort when he met a distressed family, and he was also welcomed. The gratitude of the recipient. It's just that the people's conversations and cries along the way occasionally drifted to my ears, and I vaguely heard them crying about the gods, barbarians, and the casualties of the Liangzhou defenders, and Chu Xiaoyun faintly felt a bad feeling in his heart.

These vague cries finally turned into cries and curses in front of a house full of spirit banners, and clearly reached Chu Xiaoyun's ears.

"...It turned out that the 'God Catch' who killed a thousand swords did a good job. If he hadn't released the head of the barbarians, how could the barbarians have so many pig iron forged weapons, and Mrs. Yang's three sons wouldn't all be dead. Died in battle. She is also pitiful. The old man passed away last year, and now all her sons are gone. Poor

!

" How will children, orphans, widows and mothers live in the future..."

"That headhunter who is trying to gain fame will die!"

"That's why it wasn't him who died!"

"We should let him go down to be buried with the big guy!"

The crowd of onlookers talked a lot, and there was also the cry of the mourner's family: "My son, your father is gone, and you are all gone, let me, an orphan How do you live with your daughters-in-law... My son, you died so unjustly..."

Someone who didn't know much about it asked from the side: "Who? Who is it that's a 'god catcher' who helped the barbarians and harmed us Dacheng people?"

"Who else could be, isn't that great master from Hejing County who arrested Chu Xiaoyun? Pretending that Gu Qingyun was the leader of the Hu people, he smuggled a lot of pig iron from our Dacheng, so that the Hu people's army could change their weapons. Poor Dacheng soldiers didn't know about it. They were attacked on New Year's Eve, and the Liangzhou defenders suffered heavy casualties. We also lost Brothers and sons from the father's generation... Big guy, look at what Chu Xiaoyun has done, what kind of bullshit catcher is this, I think he is the dark thread of the barbarian!" "Yes, it really makes sense!"

"

We We want to go to Beijing to face saints, and ask the emperor to arrest this barbarian god!" "

Yes, yes, yes, we want to go to Beijing to face saints!"

People were furious.

Chu Xiaoyun on the side was dumbfounded, it turned out that the whispers he heard along the way were talking about this, Chu Xiaoyun Fangfo received a head-on blow, and it took him a long time to recover.

Seeing this scene, Wang Sanqiang said anxiously: "Brother, it's none of your business, they're talking nonsense. Don't take it to heart." Xie Xun at the side

comforted: "Sometimes people don't understand so deeply, brother Chu Don't mind."

Chu Xiaoyun originally wondered if those illiterate people had lost their knowledge, but walking along the way, he was surrounded by the smell of incense candles, his eyes were all pale, and his ears were filled with mournful cries and his sympathy for him. He was also shaken by the crusade.

At this time, when he was in the capital, what Wei Chengyi said happened to echo in his ears.

"My dynasty has been committed to cracking down on the pig iron smuggling secret roads of the Hu people, and destroyed many of their strongholds and smuggling secret roads in our dynasty, so that the Hu people have been quiet for the past twenty years. But during the two years , How did they manage to transport pig iron out of the country like crazy? Could it be that some new secret transportation channel has been established? It's really puzzling!"

When Wei Cheng was talking to himself, he didn't express any opinion, because he felt that I don't know about marching and fighting, but I never thought that the consequences of the battle on the border of Liangzhou turned out to be myself. The author has
