C67 Gifting Pill to Gui Hou and Entering Jinling
Li Wenyuan took the ghost sword and placed it in the sheath. The Poison Doctor God took the hundred bag on the table and untied it, then took out a red gourd and said to Li Wenyuan: "There are fifty pills inside, one per day can remove the Yin Qi in your body. But I still have to warn you, to use this sword carefully."
Li Wenyuan immediately took it with one hand and held it in his hand, and anxiously thanked old beggar. As he only had one hand left, he looked at himself from head to toe, and did not know where to place it. While he was in a difficult situation, the Daoyin monk suddenly retrieved a black cloth from his room.
The old monk held a piece of cloth in his hand and walked in front of Li Wenyuan. He took out the bottle gourd from's hands and tied the two ends of the bottle gourd to the middle of the bottle gourd with the black cloth. Li Wenyuan hurriedly thanked his Master.
The Daoyin monk originally wanted Li Wenyuan to stay in the cave, so the master and disciple could reminisce, but Li Wenyuan was concerned with the Emperor's safety, he did not know what the Emperor wanted him to do, so he summoned him, and seeing that his master was safe, the old beggar could not hold himself back anymore. After bidding farewell to the two elders, he quickly turned around and left.
However, when he walked out of the room, he discovered that the sky was already dark, and the sky had some dark clouds hanging in it. The courtyard was already completely dark, so what should he do?
The old monk knew that he was determined to leave, so he took out a torch from his room. He opened the screen, lit it up and then handed it to Li Wenyuan: "Disciple, I know that you are feeling anxious now, but I have thought about it, only by being by His Majesty's side will I be able to feel at ease. All along the way, we travelled at night. Remember to be careful and keep a good watch on the road. There was nothing too hasty about it. "
Li Wenyuan thanked his Master, accepted the torch, and quickly left.
He walked out of the temple and arrived under an ancient tree. Under the tree, there was a faint shadow. He walked up to it and lit it with a torch. It was a black stallion, then he jumped on it and threw it straight up, and in the blink of an eye, he hooked his hand over the reins of the horse. At the same time, the torch also fell, and so, he grabbed the torch and the reins with one hand and rode down the mountain under the light of the torch.
Only after suppressing Gui Hou, did he dare to gallop his horse and gallop down the mountain, allowing his horse to ride him straight towards the capital.
Because it was night time, the horse slowed down a bit. After about two hours, he finally arrived at Ying Tian Outer City's city walls. It was directly east, outside Guanyin City's gate. He saw that there were soldiers guarding the city walls, patrolling around with torches in their hands. He then hurriedly waved the torches in his hands, gathered his true qi and shouted loudly, "Soldiers, open the gates for me. I have urgent matters to attend to in the city."
The soldiers on top of the city wall then discovered him and hastily looked down, but they could not see him clearly. They could only see a torch shaking below, and looking at the torches, it seemed that there was only one man and one horse.
"Who are you?" the soldier asked.
"I am Gui Hou, the emperor's personal guard, the emperor has summoned me, quickly open the door, I want to enter the palace." Li Wenyuan said loudly.
The soldiers didn't dare to delay as they heard his words. They quickly went down the stairs to look for the captain.
The military officer who guarded the gate was a short and fat man. He was currently sleeping with his back against the wall and his mouth was constantly salivating. In his arms was a jar of wine. He must have drank a few more cups. His face was flushed red.
The soldier rushed to him and shouted, "Boss, wake up! Wake up! "
The fat field officer snorted and ignored him. He lowered his head slightly and started snoring.
The soldier crouched down and shook his shoulder again, but he still had no intention of waking up. He only grunted a few times, changed his position, and fell asleep again.
The soldier had no other choice but to put his mouth close to Tang Wulin's large ears to play a long tune before shouting loudly, "Leader, someone is coming!"
The fat field officer immediately sat up, shook his head and exhaled the smell of alcohol. He then looked at the soldier in a daze, and shouted with a slurred voice: "You, you, you're courting death!" I'm not sleeping! "
The soldier laughed mischievously before saying, "Boss, stop sleeping. Someone's coming."
"Someone is here? "Who is it?" After he finished saying those words, he hurriedly threw that jug of wine to the side. Naturally, the jug of wine also shattered to pieces. Then, he sat on the ground and began to look all around him.
"Chief, he's outside the city!" He says he wants to go into the city! " the soldier said.
Only then did the fat field officer relax. He thought that the city guard commander had come to patrol the outer city, and then he asked: "Did he say who he is? What do you want to do in the city? "
The soldier thought for a moment, then replied, "He said, he said, I think he said he's some kind of town Gui Hou, and wanted to enter the city to see His Majesty."
? I've never heard of it. Let's go up and take a look. " With that, the fat field officer was helped to the city wall by the soldier. He looked down and asked, "Who, who are you?"
Li Wenyuan's heart was already in a hurry, he said: "I am the 'Subduing Gui Hou' that the Emperor has bestowed upon me, quickly open the gates for me, I want to go and enter the palace."
"Zhen Gui Hou, I have never mentioned that name before." The fat field officer thought for a while as he scratched his head. However, he could not think of anything, so he asked the people beside him. The people beside him shook their heads, indicating that they did not know anything.
"Hey, the person at the bottom of the city, who do you think you are? How come we've never heard of you before? If you can't prove it, not only will I not let you enter the city, I will go out of the city to capture you and use you as a fake name. " The fat field officer said.
"This is the command medallion that the Emperor gave me back then. Seeing this medallion is like seeing the Emperor in person. The emperor can slay officials, and the underworld can be killed. There is no need to play with it, you will understand once you see it." Li Wenyuan said.
"Alright, just you wait." The person on the city agreed, and in a short while, they had tied up a basket. Li Wenyuan rushed his horse over, and with the torch in hand, he took out the Swallow King, which was the "Evil Suppression Order" that Emperor Yongle had given him.
The soldiers on the city wall pulled it up, took it out of the basket and handed it to the chubby field officer. The token in the fat field officer's hand was not large, but it was extremely heavy. It was made of meteoric iron and there were three characters carved into the middle of the black surface of the token. It was the "Ghost Suppression Order". The seal was surrounded by two black dragons with four claws, he flipped it back and saw two lines of small characters at the back, which explained the use of this plate, and wrote in the book, "Ming Yonglei, one year old, was bestowed with the Gui Hou Ghost Suppression Token, upon which, if we were to appear personally, we will be able to kill any greedy official, and kill any random commoner. "Officials of all levels are not to be stopped." Below the small words was the seal of the Emperor.
When the fat field officer saw this token, his hands trembled and he almost fell to the ground. He hastily spoke to his subordinates while trembling, "Quick, quickly open the gates."
His subordinates naturally understood that, and anxiously went down the wall, opening the city gates, causing Li Wenyuan to enter the city, and anxiously returned the order badge to Gui Hou. He wanted to curry favor with him, but Li Wenyuan ignored him and rode his horse, rushing towards the inner city.
