Rebirth of a Star General - Chapter 109

Chapter 109 Dungeon

“I didn’t kill people.” He Yan stood up and faced them.

The recruit who first discovered He Yan pointed at him in horror and shouted, “Isn’t that who you are?”

“I went to the martial arts field to practice bows and crossbows at night, and I accidentally saw someone riding up to Baiyue Mountain. The situation was critical at the time, so I followed. I fought with him, he ran away, and threw this brother away before escaping. When I came down, he was already dead.”

“Where did your scimitar come from?” Shen Han asked in a deep voice.

“Owned by the other party, he also threw the knife over.”

“Is he crazy? Hand over your weapon, can you think about it before you lie?” Du Mao didn’t believe it.

“No, I think he is very smart,” He Yan said calmly, “Now, with this knife, I am a suspected person.”

The murder weapon was put in her hands, wouldn’t it just press her head to say that she was the murderer who killed the recruits.

Shen Han stared at He Yan: “Did you bring weapons when you went up the mountain?”

“Brought an iron-headed stick.” He Yan said, “When I rolled down with this dead brother just now, I was left on the road. The chief coach asked me to find it, and Xu Neng found it.”

Shen Han told Liang Ping: “Take someone to find it, be careful, and send a signal if something happens.”

Liang Ping nodded and said yes.

He Yan felt a little tired and sat down on the rock. She was not completely injured. Today, after some toss, the old wound on her waist was aching, and she really wanted to rest for a while.

After a while, Liang Ping returned with the recruits, and said to Shen Han: “The chief coach, I didn’t find the iron head stick.”

“I think he is lying,” Du Mao frowned. “I only took this scimitar when I went up the mountain.”

He Yan sighed secretly in his heart, since the other party came towards her, naturally he wouldn’t let go. Presumably, she had already picked up the iron head stick when she went to rescue the recruits.

However, she was considered to have kept a hand.

“I suspect that this person is Hu Yuanzhong,” He Yan said: “When I fought him, the iron head hit his right shoulder. Just go back to the guard station and check if he is out at night to see if he has his right shoulder. Just the wound.”

“Are you quibbling?” A recruit looked at her suspiciously.

He Yan shrugged, “I am unarmed right now. There are so many of you, and I am afraid that I will not be a person. I am wronged by a small person, and it will be a big deal to attract wolves into the room. Let the real murderer mix in the Liangzhou Guards, and maybe the next one to be assassinated. Man, you are this brother.”

She didn’t speak quickly or slowly, but her tone was sharp with a chill, and she bluffed the speaking recruit, and did not dare to continue speaking.

Ma Damei looked at Shen Han: “Chief coach, this…” In all fairness, he still likes He Yan. It’s really rare for a boy of this age to be so good in every aspect. And he has a cheerful and easy-going temperament, not half-corrective, and likable tight. But it’s a matter of life, so it shouldn’t be hasty.

“Take it home first to see if what he said is true.” Shen Han turned around and said, “Listen to my order and go down the mountain immediately.”

He Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately, Shen Han was still reasonable and didn’t beat her to death.

When going down the mountain, maybe because a partner died, the atmosphere became a little dull. He Yan asked Ma Damei, “Teacher Ma, how can you go up the mountain?”

Ma Damei smiled three-pointedly at everyone, and looked kind, and she had always been kind to her. Even at this time, she still patiently answered He Yan’s questions.

“A recruit got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet. He saw someone riding up to Baiyue Mountain and told the head coach. The head coach told us to go up the mountain to check. Before coming, we didn’t know that this person was you.”

Isn’t this the exact same process as her chasing the masked man? He Yan faintly sensed something wrong in his heart, and did not speak.

“Since you said you played against each other,” Ma Damei asked, “How is the opponent’s skill?”

“Very good, if it weren’t for my wounds, I could catch him if I procrastinated for a moment. But this person was cunning and cruel, and led me away with a corpse in the same robe and escaped by himself.” He Yan was angry when he talked about it. , “Today’s event is all arranged by him.”

Ma Damei smiled and asked in an unclear tone: “Young man, although I always admire you, I have to ask you, what is special about you, why let the other party go in such a big circle to slander the calculation?”

What’s special?

He Yan carefully recalled that she was kind to people, and there was no conflict with Liangzhouwei’s recruits. It was nothing more than “fighting” with Hu Yuanzhong a few days ago.

Hu Yuanzhong should be the only person in Liangzhou Weili who is hostile to her.

But what did she do? She had never directly inquired about Hu Yuanzhong’s origins, at most she asked him a few words on the sidelines, even if she suspected that he was a Qiang, she never showed a trace of it. If this is the reason he designed to frame He Yan, isn’t it because there is no money here?

Thinking about it, he finally went down the mountain and returned to Liangzhouwei.

In the middle of the night, Liangzhouwei became lively.

He Yan had a coach watching around, and went to Hu Yuanzhong’s room first. Everyone in the room was asleep, and when the teacher asked him to get up, they were a little confused. Wheat cried out in a daze: “Why is it so early today? It’s not yet time.”

When I saw the incoming person clearly, I almost wore the shoes upside down.

He Yan didn’t hesitate, and looked at the side against the wall. Just looking at it, his heart sank.

There was a person curled up on the collapsed, sleeping soundly. After being awakened, he sat up slowly, with a sleepy look like Hu Yuanzhong.

He was in the house.

Shen Han asked the human in the room: “Have any of you seen Hu Yuanzhong going out tonight?”

“No, no.”

“Brother Hu hurt his leg and sleeps earlier than us every day. I never saw him go out.”

He Yan looked at Hong Shan, and Hong Shan gently shook his head at her.

Really didn’t go out?

Shen Han stepped forward, without any expression: “Untie your clothes.”

Hu Yuanzhong was confused, but Shen Han looked a bit scary when he was calm and silent. He hesitated to untie his clothes, took off his outer garment to his arm, and saw that the right shoulder was covered by bushes. There were no problems with the small cuts.

That way, an iron-headed stick can be smashed, at least a big piece of black and blue. But he has nothing on his right shoulder.

not him!

He Yan’s eyes widened, not only did he not relax, but his face was even more ugly. This is the one out. What role Hu Yuanzhong played in it is unknown, but since he is okay, he can only explain one thing, he is not just a person.

Liangzhou Wei has an internal traitor, and the inside and outside should be combined to make this play perfect!

“Teacher Shen,” she said coldly, “I’m afraid that person is in Liangzhou Weili right now. Take someone to investigate!”

“I think the most suspicious one is you.” A coach stared at her and said: “You said earlier that Hu Yuanzhong killed the man. You told us to come back to see Hu Yuanzhong’s injury. Now Hu Yuanzhong is washed away from the suspicion, and you have to change again. Alone, what is your purpose for delaying time like this!”

“I didn’t lie,” He Yan frowned, “Just go and investigate the entire Liangzhou Guardian to know what I said is true.”

“Shut up!” Shen Han shouted.

The dispute stopped, He Yan looked at Shen Han, “Teacher Shen, don’t you believe what I said?”

“I only believe in my own eyes.” Shen Han said: “Come here, take her into the dungeon!”

He Yan: “You can lock me up, but you also have to find out the facts! Otherwise, Liangzhou Guardian might be in trouble.”

“It’s all like this and cursing people,” a teacher said angrily: “It’s too arrogant!”

He Yan was escorted away. The rest of the room wanted to ask but did not dare to ask. The few people in Mai looked cold, and Hu Yuanzhong asked suspiciously, “Teacher Shen, what happened? Is… Is anyone dead?”

Shen Han didn’t speak, turned around and walked out of the house. The coaches who followed came out with solemn expressions. Liang Ping hesitated and asked Shen Han: “Chief coach, what do you plan to do with He Yan?”

After all, it was his own soldier, Liang Ping didn’t want to believe that He Yan was actually an ulterior motive. It was just that there were human and material evidence. Even if he wanted to excuse him, he couldn’t find a reason.

“This matter is of great importance, and He Yan’s identity is not ordinary,” Shen Han said solemnly: “Close it first, and wait until the governor comes back.”

“Yes.”

…

Liangzhouwei’s dungeon is not big, but it is dark and damp enough. Because it is winter again, people feel bitterly cold when they enter. Without a bed, I could only sleep on the straw-paved ground. The quilt was also a thin layer of cloth, with several holes broken. I don’t know if it was a rat bite or something.

He Yan sat on the ground and looked around.

In this dungeon, there is no other person besides her. The lock of the dungeon is specially made. It is no longer the simple “one” shape like the door in the room between her and Xiao Jue. He Yan knew that he couldn’t open it just by looking at it.

To live a life again, before he had time to show his skills, he actually sent himself to jail. He should have sighed and sighed, but He Yan at this moment was really not in the mood.

She can now be sure that Liangzhou Weili has had an insider a long time ago, and that insider might have been eyeing her a long time ago, and only then will she know that she is going to the martial arts training every three days and nights these days. That’s why it was arranged that someone waited on the horse trail and led her to Baiyue Mountain.

Either going up the mountain at night or killing the recruits is just to give her a charge of “conspiracy”. As for why Ma Damei said so much to slander and calculate herself, it was also because He Yan discovered the identity of the other party’s Qiang ethnic group.

She originally suspected that the red rash on Hu Yuanzhong’s hand was inconsistent with his behavior. Later, the masked man who met on Baiyue Mountain held a machete, which was the habitual knife technique used by soldiers of the Qiang ethnic group, and she was sure that it was 80%.

Now that He Yan is in jail, Liangzhou Weili is still mixed with Qiang people, which is creepy. Xiao Jue is not in Liangzhouwei, and tens of thousands of recruits have never really been on the battlefield. If you encounter Qiang at this time, it will be like her experience in Moxian, I am afraid that the whole army will be wiped out. And the other party is so deliberate here, and surely the plan is not small. If it is false news that the Utuo in Zhangtai harassing the people, in order to draw Xiao Jue away, then Liangzhou Guards at this moment is like the fish on the chopping board, only for the slaughter.

Xiao Jue has been here for twenty days. According to him, after he arrived in Zhangtai, he found that the intelligence was false. Then the time for the other party to choose to do it must be within ten days, and there is not much time left for them, and now He Yan is still locked in the dungeon, and no one believes what she said.

When Shen Han sent her to the dungeon, He Yan hadn’t thought of directly fighting them and getting rid of control. But in this way, she was not the one who killed, and it really became her who killed. It is not what she wants to live on the charge of murder. Besides, the recruits of Liangzhouwei are all her partners, staying in the same place every day, she is not willing to live alone, watching them die in vain.

This chess, I don’t know when, turned out to be a dead end.

However, the Xiqiang Rebellion had been put down by her, and the soldiers of the Qiang nationality were also greatly injured in that battle. They were unable to make a comeback in ten years. How could they dare to take such a dangerous move?

He Yan also didn’t understand.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a noisy voice from outside: “You let me in, I just go in and say a word! My father is the Vice-Minister Song of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, and I am responsible for what happens!”

It was Song Taotao’s voice.

He Yan was stunned. Song Taotao usually sent her some cakes and candies at regular intervals. She didn’t expect to know about the matter today.

What did the guard outside the door say, and He Yan heard Song Taotao say unreasonably: “You try to stop me again? You stop me again. When the second son of Xiao comes back, I will tell him that you are offensive to me!”

Something “cangdang” fell to the ground, and the next moment, He Yan saw a pink skirt flying in.

Song Taotao said: “Brother He!”

“Miss Song.” He Yan smiled.

Song Taotao rushed forward, and across the fence, hurriedly stuffed two steamed buns into He Yan’s hand: “It’s too late, I took the leftovers from Doctor Shen to you at night. I used to hear my father say that she was in jail. People don’t have food every day. I’m afraid I can’t come every day, so I’ll take two for you first, so you can save some food.”

Right now everyone in Weili of Liangzhou regards her as a murderer, but this little girl is not afraid of her at all, she is still afraid that she is hungry. He Yan was moved in his heart. She said warmly: “Miss Song, you shouldn’t have come.”

“Why didn’t I come? I heard them say you killed someone?”

“I didn’t kill people.”

Song Taotao nodded: “I guess so, you have such a good heart, and you have to draw your sword to help you on weekdays, how can you kill? It must have been calculated. Don’t worry, I will save you.”

He Yan couldn’t laugh or cry: “Miss Song, you still shouldn’t mix up this matter.”

The girl was very stubborn, “You are my lifesaver, my father said, the grace of dripping water should be reported by the spring. Now the coaches of Liangzhouwei are stubborn and can’t listen to me. I will wait for the second son of Xiao to come back. Talk to him and see if I can help.”

He Yan said in his heart, I’m afraid it will be too late when Xiao Jue comes back.

She raised her eyes to Song Taotao, the little girl looked solemn, her small face was very serious, He Yan wanted to laugh a little, and then thought of the situation at hand, but couldn’t laugh.

What would happen if the Qiang people really came and Song Taotao fell into their hands? He Yan shuddered.

“Miss Song,” she said after a moment: “Since you want to help me, then I will ask you for one thing now.”

“What’s the matter?” Song Taotao looked at her.

He Yan sighed softly, “There are only dead horses as living horse doctors.”

…

In Shen Han’s room, Cheng Lisu was confronting Shen Han.

“Young Master Cheng, go back. Without the command of the governor, I would not dare to release He Yan.” Shen Han said helplessly.

Cheng Lisu sat at his door, blocking the door to prevent him from going out, saying: “Teacher Shen, you believe me, Brother He really can’t be a murderer.”

Du Mao stood aside and couldn’t help but speak: “Little son, everyone knows that you and He Yan are very close, but when we went up the mountain, we had witnesses and evidence. How can we deny this? Even if the governor is here, we must press Behave according to the rules. Besides, now we have not said to condemn He Yan immediately. We have to wait for the governor to come back and make a decision about everything.”

“But now my uncle is not in Liangzhouwei at all!” Cheng Lisu exclaimed: “You speak lightly, you know how cold and dark the dungeon is, how scared is Brother He who is alone in it!”

Du Mao: “…”

What Cheng Lisu said was as if he had been in a dungeon by himself. Besides, it doesn’t necessarily mean how scared He Yan is by himself. Given He Yan’s temperament, he might not have taken this matter to heart at all.

You really don’t need to worry about Cheng Lisu.

Seeing Shen Han’s resolute attitude, Cheng Lisu didn’t make any difference, so he could only back down by himself and said: “You don’t have to let him out, then I have one condition.”

Shen Han asked: “What’s the command of the young man?”

“The food in the dungeon is too shabby. My elder brother can’t stand the suffering. I don’t say too much. Whatever my elder brother eats on weekdays, he will be served as usual in the prison. There are still two weeks of winter too cold. , Give him two extra quilts, and hot water will be available every day…”

“Young Master Cheng,” Shen Han interrupted him, “this is not in compliance.”

“That’s not okay, that’s not okay, what are you going to do?” At this point, Cheng Lisu was also angry, stood up, and said loudly: “If you can’t do it, I will go by myself. I will tell you that you treat me like this Brother, I will regret it!”

After that, he turned and ran away.

The door was slammed shut with a bang, and Shen Han couldn’t help but have a headache. Children at this age, especially the little boy spoiled by the family, are really overwhelming. Xiao Jue looks cold and harsh on weekdays, and can be with Cheng Lisu. Getting along with each other for so long, it can be considered very patient.

The few coaches left in the room all looked at Shen Han.

Liang Ping asked: “Chief coach, what should I do now?”

A person died in the barracks, although He Yan was locked up now, but He Yan’s words didn’t make waves in everyone’s hearts after all. If Liangzhou Wei really had a rape, until now, that person is still hidden among the recruits, and he killed a companion without knowing it, it must not be for fun.

Who is this person, who is the master behind him, what is the purpose of the plan, and when will he show his feet? Everything is unknown. This person may be He Yan, or someone else. If it was He Yan, it was easy to handle, if it was someone else, it would be bad.

“Find someone to stare at that Hu Yuanzhong,” Shen Han muttered, “If what He Yan said is true, this person must act.”

Ma Damei asked: “Does the Governor have any letters in the past few days?”

Shen Han shook his head, his eyes also filled with worry.

There has been no news from Zhangtai up to now. This was… it was rare in the past.

I hope nothing bad happens.

…

Cheng Lisu ran out and ran into a person head-on. The person covered his forehead and said, “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)

Cheng Lisu took a closer look, but it was Song Taotao.

He just suffocated his stomach on Shen Han’s side. At the moment, he saw Song Taotao and he was not angry. “Who caused you to bump into yourself?”

Song Tao Taobai glanced at him: “I’m too lazy to care about you.” He walked straight forward.

“stop!”

Song Taotao turned his head and asked, “What are you doing?”

“Are you going to find Old Shen?” Cheng Lisu pointed to Shen Han’s house.

Song Taotao simply turned around and said in a bad mood: “Why, can’t it?”

Cheng Li has always been excited now. He stepped forward and said, “Are you pleading for my eldest brother?”

Song Taotao glanced at him. Although she disliked Cheng Lisu’s non-motivated appearance, she had to admit that this kid was quite caring for He Yan. He Yan gave food to He Yan every three to five, and He Yan had a good relationship with him. Conveniently said: “So what?”

“Don’t mention it,” Cheng Lisu waved his hand with a frustrated expression: “I just came out of the old Shen’s house. This man is incredibly stubborn. I can say that they don’t believe that Brother He didn’t kill anyone. He refused to let people give food and quilts to Brother He.”

“You’re stupid,” Song Taotao hated that iron could not be made of steel, “They don’t agree, won’t you go by yourself?” He glanced at Cheng Lisu’s downcast look, and said in a bad mood: “I’ve been there just now. Brother He has given away steamed buns, so don’t worry about it!”

“Really?” Cheng Lisu’s eyes lit up and looked at Song Taotao: “I didn’t expect you to be quite loyal.”

Song Taotao sneered: “Thanks to Master Cheng, I can afford it.”

After she said, she raised her foot and continued to walk forward.

“Hey, hey,” Cheng Lisu stopped her: “Why are you still looking for Old Shen? We all said that this person is unreliable, so it’s better to rely on the two of us.”

Because of He Yan, the two of them can be called “we two” now. If He Yan were here, he would definitely not dare to believe his ears.

“I think so too, who made Brother He believe him.” Song Taotao helplessly: “I was entrusted to be loyal to others. Brother He asked me to go to Teacher Shen.”

“Big Brother asked you to go?” Cheng Lisu was stunned.

“Yes.” Song Taotao bypassed him: “So don’t bother me doing business, I’ll go find someone first.” After that, he ignored Cheng Lisu and went straight forward.

After two steps, I turned my head back and walked back to Cheng Lisu who was in a daze. Song Taotao lowered his voice and whispered in his ear: “Brother He also said that you are in Liangzhouwei for the past few days. Don’t walk around. , If there are new recruits looking for you, don’t go, it’s best to follow Teacher Shen at all times.”

“Old Shen?” Cheng Lisu frowned, “Why should I follow him? It’s too late for me to bother him!”

“This is the explanation of Brother He!” Song Taotao said with a deep face, “You’d better be obedient.”

She thought of the young man standing in a dark dungeon, stuffing herself with what she was holding, and said anxiously: “Liangzhou Wei is afraid that there will be treacherous people among them. I am not here. Follow Shen Han and let him protect you.”

“Be very careful.”
