Chapter 746 Earth

Xuanyuan Sheng had just begun to know why Chu Huan was so interested in the famous swords in the world. At this time, he finally understood the reason and said in surprise: "Sir, is the Han Yue Blade that Jing Ke assassinated Qin back then reappeared in the world today?"

Chu Huan nodded slightly, thinking between his eyebrows: "If you can get the Han Yue Blade, it can be seen that the other party is not an ordinary person."

Xuanyuan Shengcai couldn't help but nodded, "The Han Yue Blade is just in the legend, and I didn't expect that the Lord will see it tonight." Then he said with some suspicion: "Sir, I will take the initiative to ask, the sword picture you drew is exactly the same as the Han Yue Blade that Jing Ke assassinated Qin back then, but the Han Yue Blade in the assassin's hand is really the Han Yue Blade? Is it possible that it is a imitation?"

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "I can't be sure, but the knife is cold and looks like a crescent moon. Moreover, my blood-drinking knife cuts iron like mud. If ordinary weapons are violently touched each other, even if they are not broken, they will be damaged. However, I fought with that man for dozens of rounds, and the two swords could not be hit by twenty times. The knife was unscathed. Even if it was imitation, it was indeed a rare magic weapon."

Xuanyuan Sheng said in a sensible way: "According to the Lord, that knife is really likely to be the Han Yue Blade. Just such a fierce sword, why did it appear in the hands of the assassin?"

Chu Huan said, "General Xuanyuan is well-known in the world. So I want to ask for advice to see if the general knows the whereabouts of the Hanyue Blade." He paused and frowned and said, "Now even Lord Xuanyuan cannot know who the Hanyue Blade is falling. It seems that it is not easy to track down the origin of these assassins."

Xuanyuan Sheng opened his mouth, but finally didn't say anything.

"What does General Xuanyuan want to say?"

"Since you have asked, I will tell you in the end." Xuanyuan Shengcai said: "The purpose of this trip to Anyi is to search the Huang family's wealth. Is this assassin possible that it was sent by Huang Tianyi?"

Chu Huan thought for a while and said, "The Huang family dominates one side in Anyi. Duke An Guo was in power in the capital. I think the two sides often communicate with each other. It is not impossible for Huang Tianyi to know that I came to Anyi. If he really sent someone to assassinate me, then he would not want me to arrive in Anyi?" He looked suspicious and said, "But even if I was really assassinated, the Huang family's current situation would be powerless to turn the world back. The court would send people to him. After all, the Huang family will inevitably be confiscated... Why did he do this forever?"

Xuanyuan Shengcai was also a little confused.

Chu Huan was actually thinking in her heart that it was very possible for Huang Tianyi to send someone to assassinate him, but it was by no means the only possibility. Chu Huan had just thought about the possible forces that could assassinate him.

The first to bear the brunt, Chu Huan never thought that it was the Huang family, but thought of Xiliang, which was thousands of miles away.

At Puzhao Temple in Xiliang, Changmei Ashidao said cursive words before he died, claiming that Chu Huan had the "Demon Suppression Mantra" in his hand, so that from then on, someone would come to entangle and stay alive.

Chu Huan didn't know if this group of people might be the group of people from Dade Temple. Although Viasha was seriously injured by Master Gui and it took a long time to recuperate, he would definitely have many masters under his command. If it was found that Ashida's death was related to Chu Huan, it would be impossible to send a master to assassinate him.

Chu Huan suspected that the assassin was from Dade Temple, just because the sword technique of the strange sword man was very strange and was completely different from the Central Plains sword technique. He had not known the Han Yue Blade before. When he saw that the other party was a scimitar, it was quite similar to the Xiliang Knife in Xiliang. He really thought that Dade Temple had a great possibility, but at this moment, he was sure that the assassin was using the Han Yue Blade that Jing Ke assassinated Qin, which was an authentic Central Plains famous sword, and he became even more confused. Logically speaking, the famous sword in the Central Plains should not have fallen into Xiliang and was obtained by the subordinates of Visa Monk. In this way, the assassin tonight may not be a person from Dade Temple.

Chu Huan was still thinking, and a hurried voice came from outside and said, "Shilarious Minister Chu, where is Shilarious Minister Chu?"

Chu Huan was stunned. The heavy rain outside had diminished. Only the light rain had passed. Xuanyuan Sheng had already left the tent. Seeing seven or eight people walking quickly towards this side, the two guards in front led the way. Xuanyuan Sheng only took a look and turned around and said, "Sir, it seems that the magistrate of Jiushui County has arrived..."

"Mr. Yunwei, this is the magistrate of Zhou County, Jiushui County!" The soldiers of the Guards were wet, and they were the soldiers who went to Jiushui County to report the news.

The county magistrate Zhou had already stepped forward, and he didn't care about the mud on the ground, and he knelt on the ground, "The official Zhou Deru paid homage to Lord Yunwei!" The county magistrate followed behind him, and the magistrate Bo and several people knelt on the muddy land one after another.

The official uniforms of these people were already wet, obviously coming in the rain.

"Zhou Deru, you are so good at being the county magistrate." Xuanyuan Shengcai sneered: "The imperial envoy went north and it was extremely smooth. However, when you arrived at the ground of your Jiushui County, a group of assassins appeared. The imperial envoy was almost killed on this ground. It seems that the bandits on the ground of Zhou County Magistrate is really rampant!"

Xuanyuan Sheng was the Yunwei of the Guards, and his official position was much higher than that of a mere county magistrate. Moreover, he was from the Xuanyuan family of the imperial martial arts family. In his eyes, a county magistrate was not much different from a bed bug.

Zhou Deru knelt on the ground and his face was covered with water, not just cold sweat or rain, or both, and said in fear and fear: "The subordinate official has dereliction of duty, and the subordinate official has dereliction of duty. I beg the imperial envoy to forgive him!"

The magistrate Zhou knew very well that although he was the boss in Jiushui County, he was just a big deal in the eyes of these Beijing officials. He had learned that the imperial envoy was Chu Huan and Chu Minister, who was now popular in the court, and the commander-in-chief Xuanyuan Shao was Xuanyuan Shao of the Xuanyuan family. No matter who these two people were, they could just say a word, and he would just rub his black hat.

The imperial envoy was assassinated on his own ground. If he really wanted to pursue it, he, a small county magistrate, could not afford to be guilty.

"I will forgive my crimes, and I have to listen to the imperial envoy." Xuanyuan Sheng said in a deep voice: "After entering the river section of your Jiushui County, you can't see a patrol officer. Are you a county magistrate who has a good meal?"

County Magistrate Zhou thought to himself: "Don't say that today's heavy rainy day is not heavy rainy day. Who would send someone to patrol the riverside? It's even more impossible to do this in the middle of the night." But how dare you say a word of these words? They held it in your stomach and were so scared that Chu Huan had already come out, and Xuanyuan Sheng said: "This is the imperial envoy, Lord Chu!"

Everyone hurriedly turned to Chu Huan to kowtow again. When Chu Huan saw the group of people wet clothes, he knew that the little county magistrate could not bear too much responsibility for this assassination, and asked: "Mr. Zhou brought the doctor?"

The magistrate Zhou hurriedly turned around and called out. The two doctors came out. The magistrate Zhou had already said: "Mr. Imperial envoy, these two are the best doctors in the county, and you can wait for the magistrate to send you."

Chu Huan nodded and said, "You guys get up first, thank you for your hard work."

Xuanyuan Shengcai had just faced coldly, and the group of people were frightened. Although Chu Huan was not enthusiastic at this time, his tone was quite good. County Magistrate Zhou relaxed a little, got up, and hurriedly ordered the doctor to treat the injured. Then he bowed his body and said to Chu Huan: "Sir, there are already two carriages coming from behind. In the wilderness, I'll ask the adults to come to the humble house. The official has sent someone to clean up."

Chu Huan smiled and said, "No hurry. County Magistrate Zhou, we were traveling from water, but this time we had to change to water and land. These official ships were mostly damaged. If it is convenient, you can find some people to repair them, and then send someone to send these official ships back to the Yunshan Mansion Ferry. If all expenses are paid, you can go to the Yunshan Mansion Ministry of Revenue Department to reimburse them."

County Magistrate Zhou was afraid that he would not be able to serve. He hurriedly said, "It is convenient and convenient. After the official returns, he will immediately find a craftsman to repair it. Just don't worry, sir." He turned to the county magistrate and said, "Now, go to the nearby village to find some people to come over and watch these ships. Let the craftsmen come to repair it tomorrow, so don't be careless."

The county magistrate hurriedly agreed.

Chu Huan said, "You have worked hard for me. County Magistrate Zhou stayed here. You guys go to the tent over there to rest first."

County Magistrate Zhou said that there were soldiers who took the others to retreat first. Chu Huan called County Magistrate Zhou into the tent and asked straight to the point: "Magistrate Zhou, is the bandits in Gui County very serious?"

The magistrate Zhou's heart was nervous and hurriedly said, "Sir, the territory of the county is actually not large, and the population is not large. The people are all obedient. If there are bandits, they will also come from other places..."

"Answer the question is not the question!" Xuanyuan Sheng glared at the magistrate of Zhou County, "Sir, are you asking if the bandits in Jiushui County are serious, and are you not asking where the bandits came from."

"Yes, yes, yes, what the lord taught me is," said Zhou County Magistrate, "The bandits in the county are not serious, but in the Jingjiang area, there have been troubles in Jiang bandits for a while, but they dare not rob. At most, they only rob the merchant ships passing by, but those bandits of Jiang bandits have been cleared out long ago. This time...!" He looked at Chu Huan carefully, "This time, the bandits were frightened, the officials were frightened, and the officials were incompetent, but they really didn't know where these bandits were coming from."

Chu Huan nodded slightly: "What do you mean is that this section of the river was peaceful before?"

The magistrate of Zhou County said: "When Xiaguan first came to Jiushui County five years ago, there were still some bandits here. Xiaguan mobilized yamen runners, and then dispatched hundreds of strong men from each village to wipe out all the bandits on this section of the river... But the adults also knew that the bandits had no place to live and wandered around. When the officers and soldiers came over, they would escape. In recent years, the place has been calm. Xiaguan... Xiaguan would immediately investigate to see if the fleeing bandits were rekindled...!"

Chu Huan thought for a while and finally said, "Mr. Zhou, I heard that Jiushui County is the boundary of Anyi Road?"

"That's right." Zhou County Magistrate said: "To the north of Jiushui County is Xiafeng County in Huzhou, Anyi Road."

"From the waterway north, it is said that you will be able to reach Taiyuan Prefecture in another three or two days?"

"Not bad. The waterway is fast. After passing Huzhou, there is Anzhou. There is a Fenglin Ferry in Taiyuan Prefecture, Anzhou. You can reach Fenglin Ferry in less than three days." Zhou County Magistrate explained: "It's just that you have to go by land, but it takes several more days to travel. Anyi Road is mountainous. Once you enter Anyi Road, you need to bypass a few mountains, and the road is farther away."

"Mr. Zhou, thank you for your hard work." Chu Huan said: "You may outline the route map from Jiushui County to Taiyuan Prefecture? Make a mark on the mountains and rivers along the way."

The magistrate Zhou hurriedly said, "Sir, the official can send someone to take you there."

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "No need to do this. You can get a map for me first. I want to see if there is a distance between the two places."

The magistrate Zhou was a little surprised and thought that he would just send someone to take you there. Why bother to spend time making a map? He could only say: "Go down and ask, and see if you can draw a picture."

Chu Huan nodded and smiled, "I'm working hard."

After the Zhou County Magistrate went down, Xuanyuan Sheng said a little strangely: "Sir, why do you need a map? Go to Taiyuan Prefecture, even if there is no one leading the way, you will not make a mistake in asking along the way."
