Chapter 53: The White Horse Post Office, Nankang Demon Disaster
"Wise man, don't worry! Although there is a dense forest ahead, there is a post station not far from the forest, called Baima Post. We will rest there tonight!"
After hearing Gu Changsheng's words, Yang Dong, who was guarding him, said.
"It turns out there is an inn."
Gu Changsheng nodded, and then said with a smile: "You two brothers don't want to call me Gu Xianren, Gu Xianren. If you don't mind, just call me Erlang."
Gu Changsheng was the second son of the family, and in his memory, his predecessor was also called the second son of the Gu family or the young man of the Gu family.
"How, how can this be done?"
After hearing Gu Changsheng's words, Yang Dong and Wang Li both blushed.
A wise man who governs the country!
Although they are black armor cavalry, they are different from nobles like Jiang Changkong. They are just common people who have worked hard to survive.
They may look down upon ordinary Confucian scholars' literary accomplishments.
But for them, the sages of the country are like the legendary Wenquxing. Being able to escort them for a short distance is a great joy for them to go home and show off, and to burn incense at their ancestors' graves.
Call the dignified Gu Xian Erlang?
Seeing the nervous expressions of the two of them, Gu Changsheng shook his head helplessly, thought for a while and explained: "If the two brothers call me a wise man again, it doesn't matter if outsiders hear it. I'm afraid that demons and heretics can find out, and my identity will be easier to find."
Exposed?"
Sure enough, I heard that Gu Changsheng brought out the demon.
Yang Dong and Wang Li both reacted, hesitated, and nodded, "In this case, I will offend the wise man... no, I will offend Erlang."
Gu Changsheng smiled and nodded.
Soon, the carriage stopped, and when Gu Changsheng got out of the car, he saw the place that Yang Dong and Wang Li had mentioned, called Baima Yi.
"This is the upper room specially prepared for you by me. The two military masters are also the same. It is on one side of this room. It is equally spacious. I will lead the two military masters over there?"
The postmaster of Baimayi is named Ke Yun'er. He looks like he is only in his twenties, but he is extremely mature and experienced, and he is extremely diligent.
Gu Changsheng was very calm.
On the contrary, Yang Dong felt a little surprised.
He waved his hand, signaling to Ke Yun'er that he didn't need to lead them over, and that they would go there by themselves later.
Ke Yun'er didn't care about Yang Dong's indifference. Instead, her smile became more attentive, she bowed repeatedly, and even stated that she would prepare a good meal before leaving.
After sending the Yi Cheng away, Yang Dong touched his chin, but subconsciously pressed his other hand on the handle of the knife, and said with some vigilance.
"This Yi Cheng is too attentive!"
"Old Wang, Erlang's safety is in serious danger, we must be more vigilant tonight!"
Hearing Yang Dong's instructions, Wang Li, who was still looking forward to tonight's meal, was startled, and then his eyes widened like copper bells, and a big thick-haired hand was pressed directly on the steel knife at his waist.
.
"Lao Yang, are you saying that Ke Yun'er is a ghost? In that case, let's start first?"
"It's not necessary, but I'd better be vigilant tonight..."
Yang Dong is talking.
Gu Changsheng in the back was dumbfounded.
"Brothers, don't be so excited."
Gu Changsheng held his forehead helplessly and said, "Well Ke Yun'er, there should be no problem."
"Erlang, don't be too careless. Although this post has official seals and demons and outsiders are not allowed to enter, there is nothing good about these post officials and subordinates!"
"They may not collude with monsters, but they may not collude with bandits and bandits!"
Wang Li said with a serious look: "I am older than you, Erlang, and have seen a lot. There are several old brothers who came from the same martial arts school, and they are either escorts or retinues of local officials.
He was killed by demons, but fell into the hands of those nameless deserters!"
"Okay, Lao Wang, you are getting more and more mysterious as you talk."
After hearing Wang Li's words, Yang Dong couldn't hold himself tight.
He simply felt that Ke Yun'er was overly attentive and a little nervous.
But Baima Yi is one of the stations on the official road leading to Nankang Prefecture from Anping County and several other large counties below Nankang Prefecture.
Could it be comparable to the nameless deserted stations that are often not marked on local maps and are only known to the county?
But Wang Li was a little unhappy.
"Lao Yang, it was you who reminded me, why have you changed your mind now? Besides, I also think that Ke Yun'er is too attentive when you say it. He doesn't know Erlang's identity, so why is he so polite?
"
"Brother, you might as well look at what you are wearing..."
Gu Changsheng said weakly.
Yang Dong and Wang Li lowered their heads, a little confused.
"This is iron armor, but it doesn't have the mark of the Black Armor Cavalry. We specially changed into it before we came out!"
Gu Changsheng shook his head helplessly.
He somewhat understood the brain circuits of Yang Dong and Wang Li.
The Zhou Dynasty learned from the lessons of the previous dynasties, and at the beginning of the founding of the country, it set the ambition of the emperor to defend the country.
It is precisely for this reason that Tianjing of the Great Zhou Dynasty is located in the northern part of the Great Zhou Dynasty, not far from Ji Town and Liaodong.
It is adjacent to the border pass, so every year there will be monsters who raid the grass valley to block the pass, or they will form groups of two and three and cross the border to enter the Central Plains.
This directly led to the fierce folk customs in Tianjing and even surrounding counties, but at the same time, they were not sensitive to common weapons such as armored weapons.
As long as you don't hide a big killer weapon such as the God's Arm Crossbow.
But Nankang Mansion is different!
"This is Jiangnan Prefecture, the heart of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Here, I am a Confucian scholar, but I can be escorted by two brothers who can wear armor majestically. As long as the Yi Cheng is not stupid, he can guess where I am, and it won't be too much.
Small."
Listen to Gu Changsheng's words.
Yang Dong and Wang Li finally realized that they had made a joke, and their expressions were a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, Ke Yun'er quickly delivered food, which relieved the awkward atmosphere in time.
I have to go on a journey tomorrow and have the important task of escorting the wise men of the country.
Although Gu Changsheng was extremely easy-going, Yang Dong and Wang Li were not presumptuous. They returned the fine wine carefully prepared by Ke Yun'er and only had food. Gu Changsheng, on the other hand, asked the two mysterious people who were specially selected by Mo Qiong.
Armored cavalry.
I feel a little more favorable.
It is also a common problem among warriors that they like to drink, but it is quite rare to be able to control it.
Moreover, Gu Changsheng also found out another news from Ke Yun'er.
Nankang Prefecture has indeed experienced serious demon troubles in recent years, but fortunately, a new governor has been appointed in the past two years. While rectifying the administration, he has also vigorously supported Nankang Prefecture's Qianhu Office and garrison camp.
Search for thousands of households, targeting strange monsters.
The garrison camp is used to eliminate monsters and ghosts.
The attack of the two prime ministers helped to calm down the demonic troubles in Nankang Mansion a lot.
"If it weren't for Mr. Luo Zunluo of Luofu, our Baima Posthouse would have been canceled!"
When talking about the newly appointed Lord Luo, Ke Yun'er, who was still a little reserved at first, started talking and kept talking, with a tone of respect for the Lord Luo!
