Chapter 99 Digging a Pit and Setting Up an Ambush (Part 1)

The original intention of brewing wine was for Li Bai and for Gu Qing himself.

Lord Poetry is so good at drinking. Strictly speaking, he should be called the "Wine Fairy". After a few days, Gu Qing found himself crazy about death on the verge of being drunk. If he didn't get some powerful wine for Li Bai, he would probably not have much time to go.

The newly brewed wine has a good effect. It can be poured in half a pound after filling it for more than 30 degrees. Li Bai was happy and Gu Qing was happy too.

An hour later, Li Bai woke up slowly and covered his head and moaned in pain.

"What kind of wine is brewed by my brother? It's so domineering."

Gu Qing smiled and said, "Have you ever drunk the spirits from Brother Taibai?"

"I have never drunk such a strong wine. Did you create it by your brother?"

"Yes, in order to let Brother Taibai drink with great pleasure, I thought about it day and night and tried to make this wine."

Li Bai showed a touching expression: "My brother has done too much for Taibai, and I don't know how to repay him. My foolish brother only knows how to die of drunkenness in his dream every day, but he has no body or anything..."

Gu Qing looked at the sword that Li Bai was wearing and suddenly said, "How is Brother Taibai's sword technique?"

Li Bai was stunned and said, "I was successful in swordsmanship at the age of fifteen. I have traveled all over the world for many years and have accumulated some new experience in swordsmanship. I have also killed several thieves. There is no enemy under the sword. It should be... good, right?"

Gu Qing sighed secretly, "The Poetry Fairy, the Wine Fairy, and the Sword Fairy, except being an official, they can do whatever they do in their life and reach the peak of everything. Such people even feel that they have failed in their lives and sigh for their talent all day long.

Is this the so-called "world of academic masters"?

"If Brother Taibai wants to repay me, Brother Yu wants to ask you for help..."

"My brother, just say that Taibai has no choice but to do so."

…………

Distilled wine requires distillation over and over again. The more times it distiles, the higher the degree of the wine. In order to make Brother Taibai drink it happily, Gu Qing never tires of steaming the wine.

Since Li Bai had drunk a lot of alcohol, Gu Qing had indeed become much more relaxed. Every time he drank with him, he stopped drinking and then looked at Li Bai with a smile and felt a bit bored. Not long after he started to rise and fell to the ground without waiting for him to raise his glass to come up with a wonderful poem, and he fell to the ground and was drunk.

Gu Qing was relaxed and felt uneasy and guilty. He always felt that he had committed a crime against China's cultural heritage. He had been released in advance and destroyed many good poems.

After steaming the wine to about fifty degrees, Gu Qing felt that letting Li Bai drink enough, and even if it is high, it will cause death. After leaving enough amounts for Li Bai, Gu Qing continued to steam the wine. These wines have other uses.

While steaming wine, Gu Qing also called more than a dozen villagers to come to his home to build a large-scale construction. Two large pits were dug in front of the front and behind the door of his own yard. One person was tall, and there were still mechanisms in the pit. This time it was no longer sharp wood branches, but sharp iron thorns.

Not only that, Gu Qing also asked someone to buy a lot of paper from Qingcheng County. After transporting the paper back, Gu Qing soaked them one by one in tung oil, then took them out and dried them, making oil paper.

After Zhang Huaiyu's injury was recovered for a few days, he healed a little and got out of bed and walked around without any serious injury. Seeing Gu Qing busy work, Zhang Huaiyu said curiously: "Do you prepare these to deal with your enemies?"

"No, I just feel that I don't have much nostalgia in this world, and I plan to use these to kill myself." Gu Qing said without raising his head.

Zhang Huaiyu was stunned: "Really?"

"Fake it, if you ask nonsense, I have to answer your lies. It's really comfortable to make everyone feel uncomfortable."

"You..." Zhang Huaiyu gritted his teeth and wanted to beat him, but his injuries had not healed yet and he dared not use force.

Before he recovered, he was too lazy to care about him. Zhang Huaiyu squatted down and observed the sharp iron spikes in the big pit in the yard curiously. He reached out to try its sharpness on the pointed head, turned his head to look at him and said, "Are you too naive? Can such a small mechanism calculate masters?"

"Not necessarily, but it's always right to make more preparations. One mechanism is ineffective, three, four, five, and one can finally get them caught."

Zhang Huaiyu said helplessly: "You are trying your luck, it's useless."

"I'm called probability learning, do you understand? Victory is often reserved for those who are prepared. With complete preparation, my probability of victory will increase infinitely. Those enemies may have great martial arts skills, but their brains may not be smart."

Zhang Huaiyu wanted to argue, but found that Gu Qing was full of misunderstandings. He clearly felt that everything was wrong, but he could never find a reason to fight back.

So Zhang Huaiyu had no choice but to sigh and said, "Forget it, you should be ready. The enemy will come in just two or three days. My injuries should have been healed at that time. If your preparations are gone, I will take you out."

Gu Qing nodded and said, "You should recuperate well. You only eat two bowls of rice every meal these days. I am very worried. You have changed. You are no longer the Zhang Huaiyu who can eat three bowls of rice. What made you change? Is it weight? Is it reserved? No, it is injury..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Huaiyu got up and left.

She knew what the final result was of Gu Qing's chat method that was mixed with a little arsenic in nonsense. What else could it be done except for the disagreement?

…………

On an ordinary cold night two days later.

The cold wind blew across the treetops, making a shrill whistling sound. Gu Qing stood on the hillside of the back mountain wrapped in a buckle, quietly staring at the dark village.

In the past two days, he has been upside down day and night, waiting for his enemies to come. He is not sure when they will come, so he can only cheer up and hide in the back mountain at night, and go home to sleep during the day.

The wind was cold tonight, there was no moon or stars, and the weather was much worse than yesterday. Gu Qing felt that if he was a thief, it would be the best choice to raid the village tonight.

If you judge others by yourself, they will probably not miss this good opportunity.

Feng Aweng shrank his hands in his sleeves, his shoulders shook, and kept shaking his legs to keep warm.

Gu Qing turned his head and looked at him and said, "Have all the villagers transferred?"

"... It's transferred." Feng Aweng sighed and said, "It's so cold. Gu's wife, when will the killings you mentioned come? You can't let everyone hide in the mountains every night, some old people can't stand it."

Gu Qing smiled and said, "Wait a little longer, maybe it's tonight, maybe tomorrow night, you will come within three days. When this matter is resolved, everyone will be able to live a stable life."

Turning around and looking at a group of thirteen or fourteen-year-old children behind him, Gu Qing said, "If those killers come, they don't need to take action, but you have to watch carefully and see blood to truly grow up."

"The old man knows that I have taught them early, and I have worked hard to get back a good life. Shiqiao Village will not leave anyone who is waiting for death."

"Have all the mechanisms at the foot of the mountain been installed?"

"It's ready, behind the front door of your house, the guy who is killing people is very sharp."

Gu Qing looked at Li Bai next to him again and smiled at him, "If the thief attacks, everything will depend on Brother Taibai."

Li Bai didn't drink alcohol tonight for the first time, and said freely and freely: "I only found out that my brother was a hero who died to protect the loyalty and good. How could Li Taibai be romantically accompanied by others? I like to teach my brother that in addition to drinking and writing poems, Taibai's swordsmanship is also unparalleled in the world."

As he said that, Li Bai stood proudly with his hands behind his back, and his whole body exuded a strange aura of Yuezhi.

Gu Qing nodded. He knew in his previous life that Li Bai was also a martial arts master, and his swordsmanship was also famous in the Tang Dynasty. Among the more than a thousand poems that Li Bai has been passed down to later generations, there are more than a hundred poems that mention the word "sword", which shows his understanding and skill of swordsmanship.

After everything was arranged, Gu Qing sat alone under a locust tree on the mountainside, silently deducing his own deployment again.

This is Gu Qing's habit in his previous life. Before any action, it must be deduced. Whether it is a merger or commercial negotiation in a company in the past life, or a murder in this life, the steps of the pre-deduction action are crucial. It can calm yourself down, and can also discover loopholes in your plan through deductions over and over again, and make up for it in time.

At midnight, when the villagers shivered in a leeward valley and shivered with cold, a light suddenly flashed in the direction of the Gu family house at the foot of the mountain. The light was very short and flashed in a flash.

Gu Qing was excited and stood up and said, "They are here!"

Feng Aweng and the children behind him all showed a look of alert. Li Bai let out a clear roar and rushed towards the bottom of the mountain like lightning.

Gu Qing gestured to Feng Aweng and ran down the mountain.

At the entrance of the village at the foot of the mountain, three black figures stood under a ginkgo tree, one of which had a long scar on his face. The other two were covered in pockmarks and the other two were goat beards.

Standing under the tree at the entrance of the village, Scarface suddenly frowned and said softly: "Does that kid really live in Shiqiao Village?"

"That's right, I'll find out clearly. The Gu family and his wife lived in Shiqiao Village for two years. They left after giving birth to a wild breeder. The wild breeder has been staying in the village. Calculate the year and month, and this year they should be sixteen or seventeen years old."

Scarface sighed: "I was finally able to eradicate the Gu family. Six or seven brothers were trapped in their hands. We were killed several times and fled in panic. Brother He was sick on the way to escape. He didn't even dare to look for the doctor, for fear of revealing his behavior. In the end, there was no cure to cure the disease. It was all blood debt..."

Ma Zi's eyes were filled with tears, and his face was grim and said, "I must not let him die too cheaply when I see that wild species tonight. Only by cutting them into pieces can I comfort my brothers in heaven."

The goatee was cautious and looked at the dark village and frowned: "Why can't you hear a little in the village?"

"You are worried too much. It's midnight now and the villagers are asleep. How can you hear the sound? Let's not say much, let's go."

The three of them looked at each other, and at the same time they ran away and rushed towards the village.

After rushing into the village, the first thing to do is to know where Gu Qing lives. The three experienced people from the house chose a family and flew in. They kicked open the door and planned to find a villager to ask, but the door was pitch black and there was no one in the room.

The three of them then retreated and chose another one to go in, but there was still no one inside.

After searching for four or five houses, they didn't find a single villager. The three of them suddenly felt something was wrong and had an ominous premonition in their hearts.

"Is it an abandoned village? The villagers went out to flee?" Scarface murmured.

"Impossible. I asked in Qingcheng County. Shiqiao Village is very rich and is a well-known rich village. It is impossible to go out to escape famine."

Scarface was hesitating whether to leave the village. He observed the outside for a few days before making a reason. Suddenly, he found a light flashing in the middle of the house in front of him, as if someone had lit up the oil lamp and then immediately turned off.
