Chapter 286 The Black Robe Man with Xiangling
Now that she heard about this, Mo Youting felt a little scared.
"Cousin, are we performing a human sacrifice? How do we do it?"
Shen Yunyue's face was gloomy, she didn't mind killing a few people.
"Well, some foolish people drowned young boys and girls in rivers, thinking that this would bring good weather and good harvests."
Shen Yunyue raised her eyelids calmly, "There are many ignorant people. So you must read more to understand the truth."
She wanted to promote schools and make it possible for as many people as possible to read.
Paper is expensive nowadays.
Shen Yunyue thought about it and decided to start with paper.
While Xiaojiu goes to town.
She asked Mo Youting to read the medical books and returned to the study.
Shen Yunyue discovered the papermaking technique from the space.
Some modern papermaking techniques have improved on the ancient methods, and the paper made by this method is cheap and easy to use.
Shen Yunyue wrote down the method.
She tucked it into the book.
Sit in a chair and close your eyes.
Fu Xuanheng came back from Yunheng Palace and first went to pay a visit to several elders.
Came to the study.
I saw Shen Yunyue sitting on a chair with her eyes closed.
I came behind her and gently massaged her forehead and temples with my hands.
No need to open your eyes.
Smelling the familiar scent of cold wood, Shen Yunyue murmured:
"Xuan Heng. Have you heard about the sacrifice of young boys and girls?"
Fu Xuanheng paused and said in a bad tone:
"I heard about it. I sent An Ming to investigate. This matter is closely related to Fu Xuanqing."
"Prince Rui?" Shen Yunyue's eyes were cold.
"It seems he is really ruthless. But what about Prince Li?"
"Back to the capital."
Without Li Weiyang and He Luxue, Shen Yunyue wondered if Prince Li would still have the chance to take the throne of Crown Prince as before.
these days.
Li Weiyang and Uncle Yun Jiu are both in Yonghe Town.
The Yunheng Tea House was temporarily managed by the two of them and they lived in the Yunheng Palace.
Fu Xuanheng stopped what he was doing, sat down next to Shen Yunyue, and curled the corners of his lips.
"Feng Xiaodao has been working very hard these past two days. He's been following Anming to learn from his master.
Even if Anming doesn't want to accept him as his disciple, he will do everything he can to make Anming his master."
Ever since Fu Xuanheng knew that Feng Xiaodao was his cousin.
There was a hint of doting towards him in her words.
"Let An Ming take it." Shen Yunyue raised her eyes calmly, "He will have to avenge his mother in the future."
"I asked him if he was going to the Fifth Prince's place?"
"Are you going?" Shen Yunyue paused slightly.
Fu Xuanheng shook his head lightly, "He won't go. He said he will follow us for the rest of his life."
After a while.
Anming came over.
He told Shen Yunyue about the story about the boy and girl. "That sorcerer Zhang is just a charlatan. He's colluding with the county magistrate and trying to defraud people of their money."
"Fifty or sixty people died building the dam. Qiu Zhiying and Li Jia were ambitious and both believed that a sacrifice would be successful."
"Prince Rui doesn't care how many people die. He only cares about whether the mission can be successfully completed."
A few people who each get what they need get together.
The unlucky ones are the ordinary people.
Shen Yunyue remembered that the Cangjiang River was particularly similar to a river she had seen in her previous life.
I couldn't help whispering:
"Hmph. The Cang River flows fast, and river sand and stones are of no use in this.
The only way is to find a way to get the stone down so it won't be washed away by the current."
Fu Xuanheng couldn't help but speak:
"What method?"
"Shihan County is rich in bamboo forests. Long bamboo baskets can be used to carry the stones and sink them into the center of the river.
The river flows in two directions, splitting the mountains in the dry areas. ... "
She explained them one by one.
Fu Xuanheng listened very carefully and said, "I will give this method to the Fifth Prince."
Now the fifth prince is not favored by the emperor.
You will inevitably be assigned to do unpleasant tasks.
Whenever there were censors in the court reporting on the issue of young boys and girls, the emperor would definitely send the fifth prince to resolve it.
"OK."
Shen Yunyue agreed.
She wrote down the method for controlling the flood.
Handed the secret letter to Fu Xuanheng.
Fu Xuanheng called the peregrine falcon.
Tie the secret letter to the peregrine falcon's leg and let the peregrine falcon deliver the secret letter to the fifth prince.
Just sent off the peregrine falcon.
An alarm sounded in Baijia Village, signaling a dangerous situation.
Fu Xuanheng hurriedly stood up from his chair and left the room like a gust of wind.
"Yun Yue. Go and comfort the grandmothers." Fu Xuanheng became more and more humane.
He didn't worry about these people before, but now he still considers them when doing things.
Shen Yunyue then stood up and went outside.
Seeing that Anming and others were all heading south, she did not follow them and came to the Shen family.
Madam Shen and Madam Mo were leaning on crutches.
His words revealed anxiety, "Yunyue. What's going on?"
"Nothing. Just some wild animals in the south."
Shen Yunyue responded indifferently.
Old Madam Shen's heart sank.
Since Shen Yunyue said it was okay, it must be safe.
"Will it have any impact on the rice fields behind the house?" Old Lady Shen asked again.
"No, wild animals won't run into the rice fields."
Shen Yunyue comforted them softly and let them go back into the house.
"Hurry up and go upstairs. What if a wolf comes running?"
"What a pity, Snowball is not at home." Old Madam Shen hurriedly pulled Old Madam Mo upstairs.
The two have a good relationship now.
Old Madam Shen had lived in the countryside for some time and was quite familiar with farm matters.
I often talk to Madam Mo, and she is in great spirits.
People feel refreshed when happy things happen.
She now likes country life.
Every day I keep my eyes on the tomatoes, beans and various vegetables in the fields.
Bayan went to greet the Lu family.
Shen Yunyue walked to the back.
She walked to the waterside pavilion of the Fu family. On the table in the pavilion was something covered with a red cloth.
Shen Yunyue walked over and lifted the red cloth.
A black wooden sign.
The wooden sign was engraved with intricate patterns and words.
Shen Yunyue felt a little reluctant about the wooden sign. She retracted her outstretched hand and stared at the sign intently.
The black patterns seemed to be soaked with blood.
Not far away, the sound of clear musical instruments came.
Shen Yunyue stretched out her hand again, and when she was about to approach the wooden sign, she struck the flint in her hand.
As flames and oil fell on the wooden sign.
The wooden sign gave off a fishy and unpleasant smell. Shen Yunyue covered her nose and took two steps back.
A fierce look flashed in her eyes.
She stood up and ran towards the woods behind the mountain, with Bayanian and Xiaojiu following closely behind her.
At the edge of the woods.
Bayan landed next to Shen Yunyue, "Young Madam, the sound of this instrument is very strange. I'm afraid there is someone who is good at using music to bewitch people."
Shen Yunyue: ...She is not familiar with music, so it won't seduce her.
"I'll go see if it's a human or a ghost?"
Shen Yunyue walked in.
Bayan held the sword in his hand and watched the movements around him intently.
Vines came over and entangled them.
Shen Yunyue cut the vines with the dagger in her hand, and she pricked up her ears to carefully identify the movement.
"Little fool, tell me quickly, where is the thief hiding?"
The little fool couldn't help but be shocked.
“So ugly.”
"Behind the Lala tree to your southwest is an extremely ugly man in a black robe."
Another man in black robe?
Shen Yunyue fumbled for a gun and pretended to search around. In a flash, he fired at the target.
The man in black robe made a sinister and hoarse voice.
Shen Yunyue was surprised to find that it was the person who was with Xiangling.
After being shot, the man in black robe showed a sinister smile.
Then he stretched out his dry hands to cover his neck.
"Ahh..." He fell to the ground.
Bayan wanted to go forward to check, but was stopped by Shen Yunyue.
She fired several shots in quick succession.
Blood and flesh flew everywhere before he took a steady look.
"Xiaojiu, fly to the tree and pour the corpse-dissolving water down."
Xiaojiu agreed.
He flew to the tree with the medicine bottle and poured the corpse-dissolving water down.
A pungent smell.
The corpse instantly turned into a puddle of water.
There was nothing inside, not even a bone.
Ba Nian pinched the wings of his nose, "Young Madam, did you find anything?"
Shen Yunyue lowered her eyes. "The Nanli people live in the jungle. It's common for them to practice some witchcraft. As long as we don't get close to them, we won't be affected."
