After the Fairy Disappeared Chapter 440

   What happened next was lackluster. Hu Yanzhao led everyone out of the city to surrender, and the Red General dug out the cornerstone of Xiyu Kingdom himself.

  The country perished quickly.

  Because the Panlong Army had actually taken over the capital a long time ago, everything here is as usual without any disturbances.

It stands to reason that Zhong Shengguang is only an official of the Xiluo Kingdom. Of course, he has no right to confer on Hu Yanzhao. Obviously they didn't consider this issue, even Hu Yanzhao asked with a salivating face when he could leave for Lugua River.

   "Don't worry." These are the original words of the Red General, "You have to stay in the capital for a while."

   After another two days, Hu Yanzhao found out that King Qin's power had not completely disappeared. There are still several armies in Xixiang who have repeatedly tried to break through the blockade of the Panlong army, but unfortunately they failed.

  But the news that Hu Yanzhao was captured and Xi Xiang was killed had been spread a few days ago. These teams saw the change of ownership, and the opponent was still the mighty Panlong City, so they quickly lost their fighting spirit.

   And with the attack of Panlong City, turmoil broke out in many places in Xijin at the same time:

  The people of Xiluo, who were trapped in the country of Xiluo and had been bullied for many years, revolted.

   This force soon merged with the Panlong Army to encircle and suppress the remaining resistance forces together.

   After leaving the ruins of Ganxing City, they walked north for two days, and the Shimen caravan was about to reach the border of Chiyan Kingdom.

   All the way was peaceful, and Shi Er finally regained the feeling of being a businessman in the past. To be honest, if every business trip was so thrilling, no one would dare to transport the goods no matter how many times more expensive.

   In front is the checkpoint leading to Chiyan, and the queue is very long. Fu Shanyue's attendant threw a string of money at the slave who accompanied the car, and wanted to send him away:

   "It's none of your business, get out."

  The lowly slaves cannot leave the Twilight Plains, they must stop here.

   Dare to pass the level one step, kill the head!

   "Thank you for your kindness!" The lowly slave picked up the string of coins, nodded and bowed to a few people, and glanced at the trunk.

  Actually, these guys were generous and even gave a little more. Normally, he would be very happy, going to the wine shed to drink half a cent of turbid wine to reward himself.

   But he can't care about it now.

   This little girl lying motionless in the carriage and relying entirely on others to serve her is not a child of a powerful and wealthy family at all, but like him, she was also born as a lowly slave!

  But Master Fushan wants to take her across the border!

  From now on, she will get rid of her humble fate and run towards a free life.

  Why?

  Is it because she accidentally saved Master Fushan's life? Give him this chance, he can do it too, and he can do it better than her!

   "What are you doing?" Another guard passed by and saw him standing still, so he kicked him, "Get out! What are you doing here?"

   "Hey, let's go now!" The cheap slave turned her head and saw Fu Shanyue standing diagonally behind and looking at herself indifferently, and couldn't help but be surprised.

  He quickly put on a smile and ran away.

  He Lingchuan turned around from the back of the car and looked at his back: "The chase is very resentful."

   "How do you know?" Fushan Yue let out a snort, "You can smell it too?"

"What do you smell, I'm not a dog!" He Lingchuan said unhappily, "I saw him washing the basin by the river a few days ago, smashing the basin crazily, and shouting "Go to hell, little bastard". no one."

  This person vented his anger by the river at that time, and then fetched water back, and continued to laugh at Fu Shanyue and others, respectfully.

   "Heh, why do you care about him?" Fu Shanyue didn't care about it at all, "A lowly slave can turn out flowers?"

  At this time, Master Shi Er came back from the front, bringing bad news: "It's not good, there are three or four government and businessmen who have to jump in the queue to pass the customs. The number of people exceeds four, and we may not be able to make it through today."

  Official caravans have the priority to clear customs, and civilian caravans like them have to wait.

  But it will be dark in another hour, and if you want to pass the test, you have to wait until tomorrow.

No

  However, they can only rest at the inn tonight.

  When the lowly slave walked back, he also heard the sighs of other merchants who couldn't pass the test.

  Passing by a high-end restaurant, he walked a little slower. The man saw that he was wearing a bracelet specially designed for lowly slaves, and came out very rudely to drive him away: "Hey, go away! Don't hinder our business!"

  Ordinary restaurants and hotels do not allow cheap slaves to enter, and high-end ones do not even allow them to approach, unless they enter with serving guests.

  The only things they can patronize are the food sheds and shops opened by other lowly slaves, usually in the darkest and darkest corners of the local area.

  Then he sat in a dim wine shed and drank half of the wine.

  Alcohol is not good, it scratches the throat, but it is easy to get drunk.

   "Hold it, hold it!" He kept muttering, "An egg will die if it touches a rock."

   But taking advantage of the alcohol, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and the more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he became: "I can't bear it, I can't bear it! Why is she living a good life and only you are a pig and a dog?"

  He stood up and sat down several times, his sobriety and sanity swung repeatedly on the alcohol scale.

  Finally, he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and rushed into the official office without looking back.

  The clerk inside was startled when he saw a red-faced slave rushing in, and immediately shouted: "You, yes, it's you! What are you running around, get out!"

  The lowly slave didn't leave, but leaned closer, spraying the smell of alcohol almost all over the little official's face: “I want to report, I want to report!”

   Not surprisingly, the cheap slave got a severe beating.

  The little official was about to call the guards to throw him out, when suddenly someone behind him said, "Wait a minute."

   This man is tall and has a strange face.

  The little official turned around and immediately saluted respectfully. Just as he was about to speak, the other party said: "He came to report the crime, why didn't you accept it?"

   "Huh?" The little official was stunned, "My lord, this is a lowly slave, and he's drunk to the core! You can't believe what he says."

   All the saliva of the lowly slave was sprayed on his face, **** it!

   "You haven't verified it, so how do you know his words are not credible?" The tall man walked up to the cheap slave, "Hello."

  The guard immediately kicked the slave a few times: "My lord is talking to you, get up and stand up!"

  The lowly slave staggered to his feet, bowed his head, and one eye was still swollen.

"follow me."

   Walking into the corridor behind the official office, there was no one around, and the tall man asked:

   "You said just now that the one who hides the lowly slave girl and prepares to pass the checkpoint is Fu Shanyue, the son of Chiyan Kingdom?"

   After the beating just now, the lowly slave is 70% sober from the drink, and has already begun to regret it.

   Have you lost your mind and gone crazy? How dare you enter the official office!

   But it was too late now, and he couldn't afford to offend the lord in front of him, so he could only bow his head and say: "Yes, yes!"

  「How do you know she is a lowly slave?」

"The villain has been serving her for several days. There is a mark on her left hand, which is left by wearing a bracelet for a long time." The lowly slave raised his left hand and showed him the ring on his wrist, "It's... this kind, but on her hand There is no ring anymore, this is a capital offense!"

  The ring has been strangled into the flesh, which is the symbol of a lowly slave. Taking it off without permission is a capital offense, and even deliberately covering it will be punished.

   "Interesting." The tall man turned to the little official and said, "Send someone to keep an eye on it and verify it when we pass the customs tomorrow."

   It is useless to verify now, it is not illegal to pass through the customs without bringing slaves.

  The little official was taken aback: "Ah, my lord, if that is really the son of the Chiyan Kingdom..."

   "My son broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people." The tall man chuckled, "You are in the boundary of Lingxu City, and you are afraid of a Chiyan man?"

  The words were a bit heavy, the little official broke out in cold sweat, and he scolded the lowly slave eight hundred times in his stomach, but on the surface he kept saying: "Let's do it, let's do it!"

  The tall man emphasized again: "Check that little girl first. Be smart, don't let Fu Shanyue find out. When you clear the customs tomorrow, you will get all the stolen goods!"

  He Lingchuan was drinking in a restaurant, alone at a table.

  There were people coming and going around, he propped his head and looked out the window in a daze, without even focusing his eyes.

  There were footsteps approaching from behind, but he didn't pay attention.

   Someone yelled, "Hi!"

  He Lingchuan ignored it and didn't look back.

  The voice actually said: "He Lingchuan."

  He Lingchuan's heart shook violently.

  I am a stranger in Beja, but there is still someone here who can call him by his real name?

  But as his experience grew, he was able to forcibly suppress the instinct to look back at this time, and he didn't even move his back, as if he had never heard of it.

  Only he knows that the psoas and leg muscles are already tense, ready to explode and hurt people at any time.

  But he recognized this unique voice in the next second.

  The owner of the voice also came to the front and clicked twice: "It really is you! Mr. He, why didn't you respond? I thought I recognized the wrong knife!"

   "Shhh—" He Lingchuan smiled, and made a silent gesture, "I changed my name. Come, please sit down!"

   "It's rare to meet an old friend in a foreign country." He raised his hand to call the waiter, "Come over and add food!"

That night, several guards replied to the little official: "The cars of those people are all parked together, and there are special people to take care of them in shifts. They should not be approached when they are idle. But one car is always on. We put one person in front to attract the groom's attention, and the others I leaned over and lifted the curtain secretly to see, hey, there was indeed a girl sleeping inside, about six or seven years old."

  「Are there any marks on your hands?」

   "Oh, I can't see clearly." The guard said, "At that time, someone came to remove the goods."

   "Why don't you go directly to check?" These guys are usually so arrogant, how can they be so timid?

  The guard touched his head: "Didn't the lord tell you to do it secretly and keep it secret?"

  「…」 The clerk was choked and speechless, "Okay, okay, I will report it!"

  The next day, before the border checkpoint.

  The crowd waiting for customs clearance once again formed an endless queue.

  The checkpoints here are a bit stricter than those at the border of Baoshu, mainly to check whether there are all kinds of contraband.

   For example, cheap slaves.

   Low slaves are a specialty of the Twilight Plains. Every year, countless low slaves want to escape. If the investigation is not stricter, how can they carry out the holy order?

   Fortunately, the queuing speed is quite fast. There is no moth at the checkpoint today, and there are no unexpected accidents to deal with, so the Shimen caravan came to the inspection more than a quarter of an hour earlier than Shi Erzhang estimated.
