Dressed as a farmer's little blessing, the road to escape the deserted

"What?!" Li Yong jumped up in shock, remembering that Li Lao Si was in the school grounds, he didn't care about etiquette, got up and ran out.

Lord Hou brought Jiang Cheng along, and then followed.

On the large school grounds, there was already a lot of commotion at the moment.

Thousands of soldiers surrounded the northwest corner, and surrounded the fallen soldiers in the middle, Li Laosi and a few personal soldiers.

The people on the periphery didn't know the situation, tried their best to look around with their feet up, and asked in a low voice: "What happened, why did you die?"

A soldier who was usually dissatisfied with the strict training said: "If anything happens, you will be exhausted. In such a big winter, you are not allowed to rest, and you run around like a fool in the wind and snow every day. It is strange for the undead. .”

Of course, there are also conscientious people who retort: ​​"Shut up! Don't talk nonsense if you don't know the reason! Let's practice like this every day, who is exhausted, who is not getting better and better? This person is probably suffering from some kind of sudden illness. !"

Li Laosi didn't have time to pay attention to these words. He squatted in the middle of the field, checked the soldiers' breathing repeatedly with a dark face, hoping for a little hope of rescue.

It's a pity that the soldier's cheeks were thin, his eye sockets were black and white, and the corners of his mouth were foaming. He was already dead and couldn't die anymore.

His brows were frowned so much that he almost killed a fly, and he was also baffled.

Today's morning exercises are the same as in the past, they are all running circles, and there is no sudden increase.

As a result, the pawn fell behind only halfway through the run. He chased after him and wanted to reprimand him, but before he could open his mouth, the pawn was dead.

The incident happened so suddenly that it was too late for him to save him.

At this time, Li Yong, Lord Hou and others also arrived.

Li Yong didn't dislike it either, he rushed forward and checked carefully, he couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief when he saw that there were no whip marks on the soldier's body.

As long as Li Lao Si didn't do anything, no matter what the cause of the soldier's death, he had nothing to do with him.

Apparently, Master Hou thought the same way, and immediately ordered his soldiers to find a military doctor.

Jiang Cheng wanted to drive the soldiers away, but hesitated for a moment, and then let them watch the fun.

Soon, several military doctors arrived with boxes.

After some examinations, several military doctors were worried, and one of them, the oldest, said carefully, "Master Hou, this soldier was not poisoned! He was in poor health and could not bear the burden of training, so he died."

Li Lao Si was surprised: "Impossible, the daily morning exercises are the same training, and there is nothing more added today, how could it be unbearable?"

Another military doctor thought for a while and said: "General, that's true, this soldier's spirit seems to have been hollowed out.

"Like a hollow tree, it looks like an ordinary tree, but when it encounters wind and rain, the trees next to it shake a few times, but this hollow tree broke directly."

Everyone understood and couldn't help nodding.

The soldier's appearance was indeed unhealthy, and he looked a little terminally ill.

Jiang Cheng asked: "He was inspected when he entered the camp. He shouldn't look like this. And the camp didn't skip a little food, and he wouldn't be so hungry. What is it that drained his energy?"

I don't know which soldier had the courage to answer, "Could it be that there are vixen in the camp that specialize in sucking human blood?"

The others subconsciously shrank their necks and looked around, as if some vixen really rushed out to bite them at any time...

Hou Ye scolded, "It's nonsense! There are no ghosts in the important military camp!"

After all, he ordered; "Wrap up this soldier, check all his belongings, and see if there are any clues! Tell his family to come!"

"Yes, Lord Hou."

Li Yong and Jiang Cheng responded in unison.

Although Master Hou didn't say anything, Old Four Li took the initiative to retreat and wait for the result.

After a while, the soldiers were carried down and put in a temporary coffin nailed up with wooden boards.

All the luggage and supplies of this soldier were also sent to the main account, and all the generals and lieutenants in the camp gathered together to check.

There are not many luggage items, but clothes and bedding, a few pieces of silver, some jade pendants and other accessories.

If it is strange, there are two things.

A very long tobacco rod with a round gourd on the top.

One is a jade box the size of a jujube.

The tobacco rod looks like a pipe smoker, but if you look closely, there are some differences.

I don't know what was in the jade box, it was scraped very clean, and it smelled slightly bitter...

Everyone asked, but couldn't guess what it was.

Thus, the fellow accountants of the dead soldier were summoned.

One of them was clever, and when the generals asked about the long tobacco rod and jade box, he started talking.

"Master Hou, all generals, this dead Chen He has treasured these two things. We often see him secretly holding this cigarette rod, digging something from the jade box and rubbing it in. After tinkering with it for a long time, he will start to smoke happily." , that looks like about to enter the bridal chamber.

"We were curious and wanted to take a sip, but he also scolded people, saying that we are poor people, and that the things in this jade box are worth a thousand dollars!"

"Yes, at the end of every month, our family delivered things, and we got together to eat and drink, and he would secretly hold the jade box and giggle." Another soldier also echoed, "But last month, it seems that no one gave him a jade box. , he always loses his temper, like a donkey, and dislikes everyone."

The clever soldier from before nodded his head even more vigorously, and said again: "A few times, I saw him hit his head against the wall and roll all over the floor like a convulsion. I wanted to find a military doctor for him, but he even scolded me for meddling in my own business." Son!"

Everyone frowned, guessing that this matter must be related to this mysterious jade box.

But the jade box was empty, so we had to wait for the soldier's family to arrive before making further inquiries.

For the time being, Li Lao Si took off the label of brutal training that caused death, but the matter of training soldiers was still handed over to Jiang Cheng.

When the sun was towards the west, the family of the dead Chen He finally arrived.

The Chen family counted for two generations, and they also made great achievements in military affairs. They are a family of military generals worthy of the name of Tianwu.

But maybe the grandparents were so stunning that they took up all the aura of their children and grandchildren.

Up to the generation of Chen He's father and uncle, they were all mediocre, relying on the family's shadow and loyalty, they became fourth-rank military officers in the Capital City Defense Army.

When it came to Chen He's generation, the Chen family was even less prosperous, and only Chen He and another cousin inherited the family business and incense.

The two brothers recruit cats and dogs every day, eat, drink, whore and gamble, and live like gods.

When recruiting soldiers, my cousin bought a scholar's fame on a whim last year, so he escaped a catastrophe.

Chen He had no choice but to bite the bullet and enter the barracks.

Now that Chen He is dead, half of the roof of the Chen family has collapsed.

When Chen He's father, Chen Chuan, and Chen He's uncle and second uncle arrived, their eyes were all red.

Almost as soon as they met, the three of them grabbed Li Laosi by the skirt, looking like they were going to eat someone.

Chen Chuan yelled angrily, "Xiao He often said that the training was hard when he wrote home, and we persuaded him to persevere. Unexpectedly, you actually exhausted him to death! You bloody mud leg, you know nothing about military training !

"You are the murderer, I'm going to sue! No one can protect you, you have to pay for Xiaohe's life!"
