Rebirth of a Star General

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 fear and shouted, "Aren't you?"

"I went to the martial arts field to practice bows and crossbows at night, and I accidentally saw someone riding up Baiyue Mountain. The situation was critical, so I followed him. I fought with him, and he ran away. Before escaping, he threw this brother away. Come down, when I rescued someone, he was already dead."

"Where did your machete come from?" Shen Han asked in a deep voice.

"It is owned by the other party, and he also threw the knife over."

"Is he crazy? Give up your weapon, can you think before you lie?" Du Mao didn't believe it.

"No, I think he's very smart," He Yan said calmly, "Now, with this knife, I'm a suspect."

The murder weapon was stuffed into her hands, wouldn't it just press her head to say that she was the murderer of the recruits.

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

"I brought an iron-headed stick." He Yan said, "When I rolled down with this dead brother just now, we lost it on the road. The head coach asked someone to look for it, and I can find it."

Shen Han instructed Liang Ping: "Take someone to look for it, be careful, and send a signal if something happens."

Liang Ping nodded yes.

He Yan felt a little tired and sat down on the stone. Her injuries are not yet fully healed, and after a lot of tossing today, the old wound on her waist is aching, and she really wants to rest for a while.

After a while, Liang Ping came back with the recruits, and said to Shen Han, "Chief coach, I didn't find the iron-headed stick."

"I think he's lying," Du Mao frowned, "I only brought this machete when I went up the mountain."

He Yan sighed secretly in his heart, since the other party was coming towards her, he naturally wouldn't let him down. Presumably when she went to rescue the recruits, she had already picked up the iron-tipped club.

However, she also kept a hand.

"I suspect that this person is Hu Yuanzhong," He Yan said, "When I fought against him, the iron-headed stick hit him in the right shoulder, just go back to the guardhouse and check if he went out at night and see if there is any The wound is fine."

"Are you arguing?" A recruit looked at her suspiciously.

He Yan shrugged, "I'm defenseless at the moment, there are so many of you, and I'm afraid I won't be able to do it alone. I'm wronged to be a small person, a big one to lead a wolf into the room, and let the real murderer mingle with Liangzhou guards, who may be the next one to be assassinated. Man, it's you, this brother."

She did not speak slowly or slowly, but her tone was cold, and she stunned the new recruit who was speaking, and did not dare to continue speaking.

Ma Damei looked at Shen Han: "Chief instructor, this..." In all fairness, he still likes He Yan quite a bit. It is rare for a young man of his age to be so outstanding in all aspects. And he has a cheerful and easy-going temperament, without the slightest bit of pretentiousness, and he is likable and tight. But it is a matter of human life, so it is not to be taken lightly.

"Take it back first and 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 reasonable and didn't beat her to death with a stick.

When going down the mountain, maybe because a partner died, the atmosphere was a little dull. He Yan asked Ma Damei, "Instructor Ma, how did you go up the mountain?"

Ma Damei always had a three-point smile and a kind expression when she met everyone. She had always been kind to her. Even at this time, she still answered He Yan's question patiently.

"A recruit got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet and saw someone riding up Baiyue Mountain. He told the head coach. The head coach told us to go up the mountain to check. Before we came, we didn't know it was you."

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

"Since you said that you have played against each other," Ma Damei asked, "How is the opponent's skill?"

"Very good. If I hadn't been injured, if I delayed for a moment, I could have caught him. But this man was cunning and cruel. He used the corpse of his comrade to lead me away and escaped by himself." When He Yan talked about this, he became angry. , "Today's game is all arranged by him."

Ma Damei smiled and asked in an unclear tone: "Young man, although I have always admired you, I have to ask you, what's so special about you, why do you let the other party make such a big circle to slander and calculate?"

What's special?

He Yan recalled carefully that she was kind to people, and she had no conflict with the recruits of Liangzhou Guard, and 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 never directly inquired about Hu Yuanzhong's origin, at most she asked him a few words in a side-by-side manner, and even if she suspected that he was a Qiang, she never showed a trace. If this is the reason why he designed to frame He Yan, wouldn't there be no silver here?

After thinking about it, he finally descended the mountain and returned to Liangzhouwei.

In the middle of the night, Liangzhouwei became lively.

He Yan had instructors watching from the front, back, left and right, and went to Hu Yuanzhong's house first. Everyone in the room was sleeping, and when the instructor asked him to get up, he was a little confused. Wheat called out in a daze: "Why is it so early today? It's not even time yet."

When I saw who was coming, I was so shocked that I almost put my shoes on backwards.

He Yan didn't hesitate, and looked towards the side against the wall, just looking at it, his heart sank.

There was a person curled up on the collapse, who was sleeping soundly. After being woken up, he slowly sat up and looked sleepy. It was Hu Yuanzhong.

He was actually in the house.

Shen Han asked the people in the room, "Have you seen Hu Yuanzhong going out tonight?"

"No, no."

"Brother Hu has a broken leg and sleeps earlier than us every day. I have never seen him go out."

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

Did you not go out?

Shen Han took a step forward, but couldn't see any expression: "Take off your clothes."

Hu Yuanzhong was confused, but when Shen Han didn't speak, he looked a little scary. He hesitantly took off his clothes, and took off his outer clothes to his arm, only to see the bushes on his right shoulder A few small scratches, no problem.

If such an iron-headed stick is to be split, at least a large piece of blue and black will be required. But he had nothing on his right shoulder.

not him!

He Yan's eyes widened, not only did he not breathe a sigh of relief, but his face became even more unsightly. This is the one out. It is unknown what role Hu Yuanzhong played in it, but since he is fine, he can only explain one thing, he is not just a person.

Liangzhou Wei has a traitor, and the inside and outside should be coordinated to arrange this play perfectly!

"Teacher Shen," she said coldly, "I'm afraid that person is in the Liangzhou Guard now, hurry up and take someone to investigate!"

"I think the most suspicious person is you." A coach stared at her and said: "You kept saying that Hu Yuanzhong killed the person before, and told us to come back to see Hu Yuanzhong's injury. Now that Hu Yuanzhong has cleared the suspicion, you have to change it again. Alone, what is your purpose for procrastinating like this!"

"I didn't lie," He Yan frowned, "As long as you investigate the entire Liangzhou Guard, you will know that what I said is true."

"Shut up!" Shen Han shouted.

The quarrel stopped, He Yan looked at Shen Han, "Teacher Shen, don't you believe what I said?"

"I only trust my own eyes." Shen Han said, "Someone, take her to the dungeon!"

He Yan: "You can lock me up, but you must also find out the facts! Otherwise, Liangzhou Guard may be in great trouble."

"It's all like this and curse people," a teacher said angrily: "It's too arrogant!"

He Yan was escorted away by someone. The rest of the room wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask. Mai and the others looked stern, and Hu Yuanzhong asked suspiciously, "Teacher Shen, what happened? Is... someone died?"

Shen Han didn't speak, turned around and walked out of the room, followed by several instructors with solemn expressions, Liang Ping hesitated for a moment, and asked Shen Han, "Chief instructor, what do you plan to do with He Yan?"

After all, he was his own soldier, and Liang Ping didn't want to believe that He Yan was actually a person with ulterior motives, but there were human and material evidences, and 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 in a deep voice, "I'll lock it up first and wait for the Governor to return."

"Yes."

...

The dungeon in Liangzhouwei is not large, but it is dark and damp. Because it is winter again, people will feel the cold and biting cold when they enter. There is no bed, so I can only sleep on the floor made of straw. The quilt is also a thin layer of cloth, with several holes torn through. I don't know if it was bitten by a mouse or something.

He Yan sat on the ground and looked around.

There was no one else in this dungeon except her. The lock of the dungeon was specially made, and it was no longer the simple "one" font like the door in the middle of her and Xiao Jue's room. He Yan knew that she couldn't open it just by looking at it.

After reliving the first life, before he had time to show his skills, he actually sent himself to prison. He should have sighed and sighed, but He Yan at the moment was really in no mood.

She can now be sure that there has been a traitor in Liangzhou Weili long ago, and that traitor may have been eyeing her long ago, and she will know that she has to go to the martial arts field for training every three days and nights these days. It was precisely because of this that people were arranged to wait on the horse road and lead her to Baiyue Mountain.

Whether it is going up the mountain at night or killing the recruits, it is to put her on the charge of "scheming". As for why Ma Damei said that she took so much trouble to slander and calculate herself, it was also because He Yan discovered the identity of the other party's Qiang people.

She had suspected that the rash on Hu Yuanzhong's hand was inconsistent with his behavior. Later, the masked man she met on Baiyue Mountain was holding a machete, which was the usual sword technique used by Qiang soldiers. She was already 80% sure.

Now that He Yan is in prison, there are still Qiang people in the Liangzhou guards, which is creepy. Xiao Jue is not in Liangzhouwei, and tens of thousands of recruits have never really entered the battlefield. If she encounters Qiang people at this time, it is just like what she encountered in Moxian County, and I am afraid that the entire army will be wiped out. And the other party is so deliberate here, it must be not small. If the Wutuo people in Zhangtai harassed the people with fake news, in order to lure Xiao Jue away, then the Liangzhou Guards at this moment are like fish on a chopping board, and they can only be slaughtered by others.

It has been twenty days since Xiao Jue went here. According to the fact that after he arrived in Zhangtai, he found out that the information was false, he rushed back overnight, and it would take ten days to arrive at Liangzhouwei. 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, it was not that He Yan didn't think about fighting them directly and getting out of control. But in this way, it was not the person she killed, and it really became the one who killed her. It was not her wish to live on the charge of murder. Besides, the recruits of Liangzhou Guard were all her partners, and they stayed in one place every day. She didn't want to live alone, watching them die in vain.

This chess, I do not know when, turned into a dead end.

It's just that the Western Qiang Rebellion has been quelled by her, and the Qiang soldiers were also severely damaged in that battle. They won't be able to make a comeback in ten years. How could they dare to take such a risky move?

He Yan also didn't understand.

At this moment, a loud voice was suddenly heard from outside: "You let me in, I just go in and say a word! My father is the deputy governor of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Mr. Song, if anything happens, I will be responsible for it!"

It was Song Taotao's voice.

He Yan was stunned. Song Taotao usually came to give her some cakes and candies every three or five times. She didn't expect that even she would know about today's incident.

What the soldier guarding the gate said again, He Yan heard Song Taotao's unreasonable words: "You stop me again? You stop me again, and when the second son of Xiao comes back, I will tell him that you insulted me!"

Something fell to the ground with a bang, and the next moment, He Yan saw a pink skirt fly in.

Song Taotao said, "Big Brother He!"

"Miss Song." He Yan smiled.

Song Taotao rushed to the front and hurriedly stuffed two steamed buns into He Yan's hands through the fence: "It's too late, I'll give you the leftovers from Doctor Shen's evening meal, I heard from my father that she was imprisoned before. People don’t have food every day. I’m afraid I can’t come every day, so I’ll get you two first, so you can save some food.”

Right now, everyone in Liangzhou Weili regards her as a murderer, but this little girl is not afraid of her at all, and she is afraid that she will be hungry. He Yan felt a burst of emotion in his heart. She said warmly, "Miss Song, you shouldn't have come."

"Why didn't I come? I heard them say you murdered?"

"I didn't kill people."

Song Taotao nodded: "I guess it is also, you have such a good heart, and you have to draw a knife to help you when you see injustice. How can you kill someone? It must be calculated. Don't worry, I will save you."

He Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Miss Song, don't get involved in this matter."

But this girl was very stubborn, "You are my savior. My father said that the kindness of dripping water should be reciprocated by the spring. Now those coaches in Liangzhou Wei are old-fashioned and stubborn, and they don't listen to me. When the second son of Xiao comes back, I will do it again. Talk to him and see if you can help."

He Yan thought to himself, I am afraid that by the time Xiao Jue returns, it will be too late.

She raised her eyes to look at Song Taotao, the little girl had a serious face, her little face was very serious, He Yan wanted to laugh a little, but then she thought of the current situation, but couldn't smile.

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 while, "Since you want to help me, I will ask you one thing now."

"What's the matter?" Song Taotao looked at her.

He Yan sighed softly, "Only dead horses are used as living horse doctors."

...

In Shen Han's house, Cheng Lisu was confronting Shen Han.

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

Cheng Lisu sat at his door and blocked the door to prevent him from going out. He only said, "Teacher Shen, believe me, Brother He really can't be the murderer."

Du Mao stood on the side and couldn't help but said: "Little Young Master, everyone knows that you and He Yan have a good relationship, but when we went up the mountain, there were witnesses and physical evidence, so how can we deny it? Even if the governor is here, we must press Do things according to the rules. Besides, we haven't said that He Yan's crime will be immediately convicted. We have to wait for the Governor to come back to make a decision. "

"But now my uncle isn't in Liangzhouwei at all!" Cheng Lisu shouted, "You speak easily, you know how cold and dark it is in that dungeon, how scared is Brother He alone in it!"

Du Mao: "..."

Cheng Lisu said this as if he had been in a dungeon himself. Besides, it's impossible to say how scared He Yan is alone. With He Yan's temperament, he probably didn't take this matter to heart at all.

There's really no need for Cheng Lisu to worry about it.

Seeing that Shen Han's attitude was firm, Cheng Lisu had no choice but to back down and said, "It's okay if you don't let him out, then I have a condition."

Shen Han asked, "What are your orders, young master?"

"The food in the dungeon is too shabby. My eldest brother can't bear this kind of suffering, and I will not say too much. What my eldest brother eats on weekdays will be supplied as usual in the prison. There are still two weeks of winter too cold. , give him two more quilts, and hot water should be available every day..."

"Young Master Cheng," Shen Han interrupted him, "this is against the rules."

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, what are you going to do?" Speaking of this, Cheng Lisu was also angry, stood up, and said loudly, "If you can't do it, I'll go by myself. I tell you, you treat me like this. Brother, you will regret it!"

After all, he turned and ran away.

The door was slammed shut with a bang, and Shen Han couldn't help but have a headache. Children of this age, especially the spoiled young master, are really unbearable. Xiao Jue usually looks indifferent and harsh. It's a lot of patience to get along with each other for so long.

The remaining instructors 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 did not cause waves in the hearts of everyone. If Liangzhou Wei really had a traitor, and 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 it, what is the purpose of the plan, and when will it be revealed, everything is unknown. This person may be He Yan, or someone else. If it was He Yan, it would be fine, but if it was someone else, it would be a big problem.

"Find someone to stare at that Hu Yuanzhong," Shen Han pondered: "If what He Yan said is true, this person must have acted."

Ma Damei asked, "Is there a letter from the governor these days?"

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

There has been no news from Zhangtai until now, which was... rare in the past.

Hope nothing bad happens.

...

Cheng Lisu ran out and bumped into a person, who covered his forehead, snorted, "Don't you have eyes when you walk?"

Cheng Lisu looked closely, but it was Song Taotao.

He had just held back his anger at Shen Han's side, but when he saw Song Taotao at the moment, he was angry, "Who made you bump into it yourself?"

Song Taotao gave him a white look: "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 looking for Lao Shen?" Cheng Lisu pointed in the direction of Shen Han's house.

Song Taotao simply turned around and said angrily, "Why, can't you?"

Cheng Lisu was excited now, he took a few steps forward and said, "Are you begging for my eldest brother?"

Song Taotao glanced at him. Although she didn't like Cheng Lisu's useless appearance of not seeking to make progress, she had to admit that this kid was quite interested in He Yan. He gave food to He Yan every three to five, and He Yan had a good relationship with him. He said, "So what?"

"Don't mention it," Cheng Lisu waved his hand with a dejected look: "I just came out of the old Shen's house, this man is so stubborn, I say whatever, they don't believe that my brother He didn't kill anyone. He refused to let anyone give food and quilt to Brother He."

"You're stupid," Song Taotao hated that iron was not steel, "they won't agree, won't you go by yourself?" He glanced at Cheng Lisu's dejected look, and said angrily, "I've been there just now, here's to you. Brother He has given you steamed buns, you don't have to 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 Mr. Cheng's attention."

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

"Hey, hey," Cheng Lisu stopped her: "Why are you still looking for Lao Shen? It's said that this person is unreliable, so it's better to rely on us."

Because of He Yan, the two of them can now be called "we". If He Yan was here, he would definitely not believe his ears.

"I think so too, who made Brother He believe him." Song Taotao was helpless: "I was entrusted by others to be loyal, and it was Brother He who asked me to find Teacher Shen."

"Brother let you go?" Cheng Lisu was stunned.

"Yes." Song Taotao bypassed him: "So don't bother me with my business, I'll go find someone first." After that, he ignored Cheng Lisu and walked straight forward.

After taking two steps, he turned his head, walked back to Cheng Lisu who was in a daze, Song Taotao lowered his voice and whispered in his ear: "He also said that you are in Liangzhouwei these few days, don't walk around. , if there are recruits looking for you, don't go, it's best to stay by Coach Shen's side all the time."

"Old Shen?" Cheng Lisu frowned: "Why should I follow him? It's too late for me to bother him!"

"This is Brother He's explanation!" Song Taotao sank his face, "You better be obedient."

She remembered the young man standing in the dark dungeon, stuffing the things in his hand into her, and said worriedly: "There may be a traitor in Liangzhou Wei. I'm not here, follow Shen Han and let him protect you."

"Be very careful."
