Chapter 74: There is no trace of thousands of miles under his feet, and there are gods three feet above his head
The seven of us sat quietly on the table banquet that had been prepared for the Manchu and Han banquets, looking at the dishes with all the colors and aromas, everyone was salivating, just waiting for my father's words at this moment, we can let go of all the mental baggage, to enjoy these rare delicacies in the world!
And the room we are in has been re-selected by my father and decorated magnificently.
The tables and chairs in the whole room are all carefully made of high-quality mahogany, which looks smooth and beautiful, and sits comfortably and warmly; The floor of the ground is all taken from the best stone in Dali, Yunnan, with delicate texture and shiny light, comparable to a woman's cosmetic mirror; The top is all depicted with the famous meal map of ancient times, the color is warm, the picture is exquisite, and the people who look at it are unstoppable; On the huge long dining table in front of me, five big red lanterns hung straight from the roof, and the warm and soft candlelight of the meal was fragrant, delicious and noble.
This room is the top dining place of the Phoenix Restaurant, which is generally a dining place for the royal family and nobles and the wealthy merchants to feast important people.
When my father needed money so much, he changed his usual habit of frugality and frugality, specially customized such a luxurious room, and ate the most delicious food in the world.
Although the food was delicious, everyone in the room probably didn't feel that comfortable to eat!
"Ladies and gentlemen, here are either my dearest relatives or my friends of life and death, to be able to sit here today, we are all brothers who care about each other, let's not think about such disturbing things for the time being, be happy, eat this meal happily, drink happily, and talk endlessly!" Suddenly, my father stood up and said.
After my father finished speaking, everyone's faces were cloudy!
"Dad, how do I feel that you are a send-off wine?" I whispered in my father's ear.
"Nonsense, what do you say? How did everyone have a good dinner, how did it become a send-off wine? Father said angrily.
"No, I'm confused when you heard what you just said, can you eat and drink with peace of mind? Or did my father already have a plan in his heart? I said innocently.
When my father heard me say this, he didn't expect to laugh out loud, "Knowing a son is better than a father, and worrying the most for a father and son", with my father laughing so easily, everyone's nerves that were still tense just now suddenly eased a lot.
"Uncle, don't worry, my father has promised to lend you 50,000 taels of silver!" Sister Qingyi said at this time.
When the fourth uncle heard Sister Qingyi say this, he quickly nodded again and again to say that this was indeed the case, and it was inevitable that there was a trace of heart-scratching in the eyes of the fourth uncle!
It's no wonder that these 50,000 taels of silver are unattainable for an ordinary family in a lifetime, and for a person who has been in business all year round, capital turnover is used from time to time, and if he wants to take out so much silver at once, it is estimated that the fourth uncle will be overstretched and take care of himself, but he doesn't know what trick Sister Qingyi used to make the fourth uncle endure the pain?
"Master, this is great, just now I sent a guy to my former friend to explain the situation, although things are not as we wanted, but there are still a few real friends who are very generous to take out all their savings, and it is estimated that it will be 30,000 taels of silver here!" Uncle Wu said.
"Dad, I also brought the teapot in my room, plus this should be considered almost, our worries have been solved, and then we are waiting for us to come up with a better way!" I hurriedly took the opportunity to say.
After listening to what we said, my father kept nodding his head, it seems that my father still has a plan in his heart, and he doesn't seem to care so much about this "back road"!
"Dad, seeing that you are so calm, you must already have an idea?" I asked curiously.
"Thank you for your help, indeed I have a plan in my heart, since the Baoxing pawn deliberately provoked the incident, then our Wen Baozhai will naturally not sit still, we will come to a plan, move out of the black hands behind the scenes, and give us justice!" My father stroked his beard and laughed.
When everyone heard my father say this, their hearts suddenly brightened, everyone's faces were filled with joyful expressions, and the doubts that shrouded our heads finally slowly dissipated, at least now we see a little hope!
"Master, what is the method of planning, you say come and tell us how to do it!" Uncle Wu asked curiously.
My father smiled slightly, and then made a gesture to us, and several of us gathered around my father, and my father gave us a detailed explanation of his plan, and everyone exclaimed after listening!
I didn't expect the veteran to be so different, this way can not only make the treasure return to Zhao, but also lure out the mastermind behind the scenes, it is really a good way to kill two birds with one stone, if I change it, I'm afraid I can't think of a reason to break my head!
Everyone looked at each other and laughed, and the hearts that came up were finally put down!
At this time, under the father's order, everyone finally couldn't bear it, and instantly picked up the dishes and chopsticks to taste the delicious food in the world.
Tonight, we did have a very warm night, when we were full of food and drink, we were in a good mood, not only tomorrow that matter has a solution, I think my father is more concerned about the two things I got back from the Northeast, that is my father's lifelong pursuit of wishes and ideals!
We had dinner for two whole hours, and now it was the dead of night, my father arranged for someone to send away Sister Qingyi and Uncle Four, and we also returned to Wenbao Zhai, Uncle Wu and my father were also slightly drunk and went straight back to the room to rest, leaving me and the beggar to walk and eat by the backyard garden!
"Childe, if you are rising in Yaxing, you can stay here and enjoy the moon, I will go back to sleep!" The beggar yawned and opened his mouth to tears.
"Wait, I think we have something to do tonight!" I suddenly stopped the beggar and said.
"Huh? Anything else? The beggar opened his mouth wide in surprise.
"Have you forgotten our old rules?" I laughed.
"Explore Baoxing pawn at night, know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles!" The beggar said in horror.
I laughed, it seems that the beggar still knows me better, although I think my father's method is good, but it is all under the premise of our reasoning, at this moment I want to know what they are doing, what they are saying, so that even if things change, we will not be overstretched!
The beggar looked dejected, he had a good dream, but he was disturbed by my whim, and he was going to stay awake all night, I looked at the beggar's negative appearance and said, "Boy, do you want to eat the Manchurian banquet again?" ”
"Yes, of course I do, I still have a lot of memories now!" The beggar hurriedly said.
"Then go get your nightcoats, maybe I'll give you another meal tomorrow......" I said with a smirk.
The beggar touched his belly, looked at my expression again, and had to run back to the room to get the night clothes, this beggar is naturally greedy, this trick I have tried many times!
After we quickly changed our nightclothes, the beggar and I quietly disappeared into the night!
After a while, we touched the wall of the Baoxing pawnshop, and at the moment we were hiding in a dense tree, only to see the Baoxing pawnshop full of people, all kinds of people were busy, in and out of the city did not know what to do there!
Suddenly, a purple-robed man appeared in our sight, and the beggar almost cried out nervously when he saw it, but I hurriedly covered his mouth.
"What's wrong? What do you see? After calming down, I asked suspiciously.
"Childe, do you remember the incident when our Wenbaozhai was attacked a few months ago?" The beggar swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said.
I nodded, not knowing what the beggar was going to say.
"I didn't tell you at the time, I followed the men in black all the way to the southern suburbs, overheard their conversation in an abandoned temple, and then I was almost injured by a purple-robed man who used the Yanling dart...... the beggar continued.
"What? Could it be that this purple-robed man in front of you is the purple-robed man you saw that day? I said in surprise.
The beggar nodded heavily, and my heart suddenly swelled, and the mysterious killer organization "Forty Battalions", which we had been searching for for a long time but had no news, now appeared in the Baoxing Pawnshop, what is the relationship between them? Did they work together in this incident?
For a while, countless questions flashed in my mind!
"Let's kill it now and get revenge!" The beggar said to me as he made a gesture to go in.
"Wait! Now is not the time, no matter whether the forty battalions have anything to do with this Baoxing pawnshop or not, this time we must let him pay for his blood debts, and now we can't act rashly to startle the snake! I grabbed the beggar and said.
The beggar nodded, and continued to hide in the bushes with me to observe every move inside, thinking that this night detective was here to find out the truth, but I didn't expect that I would discover such a big secret, it seems that our rules are still very effective!
After a while, those people in the Baoxing pawnshop disappeared one by one, the two of us have been guarding the periphery, and we have never seen anyone come out again, I really don't know where they have gone for a while, if we are still staying here at this moment, I am afraid that we will only be able to look at the stars.
So the beggar and I looked at each other, and we both smiled weirdly.
In an instant, the two of us used light skills to sneak into the inside of the Baoxing pawnshop.
In the darkness of the night, we were like shadows in the night, I used the stealth technique of the Fusang country, and the beggar used the "no shadow" in the electric light god walk, and the two of us walked through the front and back yards of the huge Baoxing pawn, and we didn't let the guards find our fixed figures.
By this time, we had already touched their backyard, and the whole backyard was still lit in one room, and I heard two or three people whispering in the distance.
I gave the beggar a look, and the beggar jumped into the distance to look out for me.
I crept closer to the lighted room, and then made a move of gecko swimming against the wall and gently crouched on the beam under the eaves.
At this moment, through the skylight, the voices of the people inside are carefully listened to.
"Brother Sima, this time I came out to meddle in this matter for the sake of your face, you can't break my rules!" Only then a hoarse voice was heard.
After the man finished speaking, there was a moment of silence in the room.
"Two, two, after this is done, you will divide all the money equally, I won't take a penny, what I want is to get out of this disgusting mouth!" A moment later, a familiar voice rang out.
As soon as this person finished speaking, I heard the identity of this person!
That's right, it was Zheng Yuanba, the leader of the Green Gang, who spoke later!
I didn't expect him to intervene in this incident?
How can this person be so haunted, since the last time they were hit hard, they have not moved at all, I can't imagine that this hypocrite has never stopped taking revenge on us!
"Senior brother, you are so stubborn when you are so old, we will naturally not break your rules, but the current situation is not all in our favor, so it is best for us to put our interests aside first, and share the same hatred of the enemy!" Suddenly, a voice like a bell, like hell, said.
"Senior brother, when did you become so timid? I didn't pay attention to that little Wen Bao Zhai at all, why are you so cautious, all the purpose of our forty battalions is for silver, this is an eternal rule, don't tell me about favors here! The hoarse voice said again.
This hoarse speaker should be the camp leader of the Forty Battalion!
It seems that this murderous killer organization is inextricably linked with Sima Baoxing, it is really unthinkable, what a group of embarrassed people!
"Senior brother, remember, be careful to make the Ten Thousand Year Ship! This is the lesson I have learned over the past 100 years! At this moment, the hellish macro sounded again.
"Okay, okay, two seniors, the silver is naturally indispensable to your forty battalions, and after the matter is completed, Wenbao Zhai will naturally become your brother Sima's family business, I only seek revenge, we each have our own place, and there is no disagreement!" Zheng Yuanba hurriedly mediated from it.
Suddenly, I heard an attendant hurrying from outside from afar!
The candles in the room were extinguished instantly, and the sound of speech stopped abruptly, and the attendant came to the door of the hut in the backyard, and then knelt down and said calmly: "Door master, the matter has been done, please give the order!" ”
After a moment's pause, the candle inside lit up again.
"Okay, I see, you stand down!" Hell Hongyin said.
My heart was relieved, the moment the house suddenly disappeared, I thought I and the beggar had been discovered!
Unexpectedly, it was the three old foxes who heard the voices of the people from afar, but fortunately the beggar and I were very careful, otherwise we would show a little bit of horse's feet, these three fierce gods and evil spirits, one of them is enough for us to bear.
I saw that I already knew the general idea of the matter, so I took advantage of the attendant's departure, and wanted to quietly leave to join the beggars, so as not to have many dreams at night, and they would find out and lose all my work!
"Who's out there?"
I had just moved slightly, only to hear the loud voice of Hell inside shouting alertly.
"Isn't anyone the one who came to tell you? Who else could there be? Zheng Yuanba said strangely.
"No, I obviously heard the sound of a heartbeat in addition to the three of us just now...... Sima Baoxing said suspiciously.
It was too late, it was too fast, and the three top masters in the martial arts jumped out of the house at once, vigilantly probing around.
At this moment, I had already used my turtle breath ** to stop my heart from beating, and the beggar was far away just now, and the moment I heard the three people speak, I also used the lightning to "go without a trace" and left the courtyard of the Baoxing pawnshop in a flash of lightning.
At this time, Sima Baoxing stood motionless in front of the door, Zheng Yuanba had already jumped to the roof to look around, and the camp master of the forty battalions was vigilantly searching with his eyes in the courtyard.
I was lying on the beam, in an extremely awkward position, in front of such peerless masters, I could not disappear into the blind spot of their sight out of thin air like before, they would also sense my presence according to the induction waves released by their own internal force.
As soon as I move a little, they will immediately find out, and it will be very difficult to get out at that time!
At this point, none of them noticed my location, and I had to get out of here as soon as possible, lest the three of them find out at the same time, and my invisibility skills would be ineffective.
So, I slowly suspended my body in the air with internal force, and then slowly slid away with the support of internal force.
Suddenly, Sima Baoxing suddenly looked at my position, this old fox is simply terrifying!
My almost silent movements were all alerted by him, but fortunately I used the stealth technique to hide in the blind corner of his line of sight in time, but he stared at the beam under the eaves and looked straight at it, and I could see that my scalp was numb and my whole body was sweating.
At this moment, the sweat silently mixed into one and dripped down my chin!
Sima Baoxing immediately noticed it, and instantly used a palm to hit the position where I was hiding, and when I saw that it was already exposed, I instantly used the internal force of my whole body to fly out from under the eaves, and the speed was so fast that I didn't even touch it.
I dodged Sima Baoxing's palm, but the force of that palm instantly pierced the eaves, and I was exposed to the sight of the three of them.
In an instant, I only felt a strong force behind me chasing me, at this moment I can't just run away, it is the best policy to find a way to retreat from the enemy and then take the opportunity to escape, so I volleyed out the stars to catch Sima Baoxing's strength, and then quickly melted through the body, and slapped it out with my own internal force.
I saw that the electric light in the sky flickered, and quickly spread to the surroundings.
Sima Baoxing and I were shocked out at the same time!
I took the opportunity to use light skills and disappeared into the darkness in an instant.
"Poor Kou Mo chase, be careful of the ambush, I think that person will naturally not live for two hours if he is hit by my Tianhuo Divine Palm......," only Sima Baoxing said later.
I stumbled for a while, and suddenly my body went limp.
"Childe, are you alright?"
The beggar suddenly chased after me from behind and held me back.
I was just about to open my mouth to speak, when suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out!
The beggar was shocked when he saw this, and suddenly picked me up and hurriedly ran towards Wenbaozhai......
