Chapter 20: The Leopard's Head
The Great Song Dynasty Tokyo, known as the first city in the world, has millions of people living in Tokyo, and before entering the city, Gao Cheng saw a prosperous city appear in front of him.
The water of the Bianhe River surrounds the outside of the city, and a part of the river water enters the city directly through the water gate, and the city gate is full of people, and the literati and merchants and porters enter and exit. On both sides of the road outside the city gate, there are a large number of houses, restaurants and shops, but on the periphery of the city, the prosperity is far greater than that of Yan'an Mansion.
When Gao Cheng came to Tokyo, it was almost dusk, and the restaurants and shops along the road were hung with lanterns, and the shops were brightly lit.
"The prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty Tokyo is even higher than that of Chang'an City in the Zhenguan era of the Tang Dynasty!
Gao Cheng secretly admired in his heart, just looking at the prosperity of Tokyo City, even the most daring person would not dare to imagine that this was the eve of the end of the dynasty.
During the Xuanhe period, it was the last prosperous era of the Great Song Dynasty. However, this kind of prosperity is only the surface, no matter how prosperous the prosperity is, if there is not enough military support, it is just a vain, and it will be shattered with a slight poke.
Gao Cheng secretly used his spiritual eye to observe above Tokyo, only to see that the endless luck gathered above Tokyo into a coiled golden dragon, this golden dragon's eyes seemed to be closed, as if sensing someone peeping, the huge body trembled slightly, and an invisible force burst through the void.
Gao Cheng closed his eyes violently, only to feel that his eyes were sour and almost left tears. If it weren't for the identity of the Zhao family's disciples, the counterattack of the golden dragon formed by the Great Song Dynasty would definitely not be so slight.
"The Golden Dragon of Luck, cut off all laws, and protect the Son of Heaven! It's a pity that it's a bit of a strong outsider and a dry one!" Gao Cheng had a wonderful feeling in his heart when he saw the Golden Dragon of Luck.
After peeking at the luck of the Great Song Dynasty, Gao Cheng's spiritual eye could not be used again for a short time, so he directly led the horse, asked Xiao Er for directions to the tea shop not far away, and walked in the direction of Daxiangguo Temple in Tokyo.
"Brother!"
When Gao Cheng led the horse to the place, Zhu Wu and Chen Da, who had already come to Tokyo, saw his figure and hurriedly greeted him, and according to the prior instructions, they had already arranged an inn nearby.
If it was getting late today, the three of them didn't have the heart to hang out outside, and went directly to the inn to rest.
In the inn room, Gao Cheng asked Chen Da to rest and called Zhu Wu over.
"Brother called me here, but what do you have to do?" Zhu Wu asked tentatively.
During this time, he held the power of the dart game in Zhaojiazhuang, and admired Gao Cheng's idea of establishing a dart game very much, coupled with the previous life-saving grace, this divine machine military master was sincerely willing to serve Gao Cheng.
Gao Cheng groaned for a while and said, "I won't hide it from you, this time I came to Tokyo, I wanted to open up the joint and seek a mission!"
"My current official position is that of the Chengjielang of the Nine Grades, if I am not sent, I will have no channel for meritorious service, and I may be like this for the rest of my life! Since a manly husband was born in the world and does not make meritorious contributions to his wife and son, how can he be worthy of the skills that our brothers have practiced hard for so many years?"
When Zhu Wu heard such excited words, he was also a little moved, and couldn't help but say: "Brother's words are good, with my brother's skills, it is really condescending to be a petty official from the ninth grade!"
Gao Cheng laughed, glanced at Zhu Wu deeply, and said: "You and I are brothers, I will say it directly if I have something to say, those prefects and county orders, one by one, only know that they are guilty of corruption and perversion of the law, and they are not very good at doing business, but there are a lot of foolish things." ”
"You can send troops to set up the formation, Chen Da Yang Chun can charge into battle, they are all generals. However, these mediocre officials forced the three brothers to fall into the grass in Shaohua Mountain! They were simply blind and did not know the real heroes. ”
"If I can replace these county prefects, you will be able to clean up the world, make contributions to the imperial court, and be crowned as a wife and son in the future, and you will be able to glorify your ancestors!"
Zhu Wu's breathing was a little shorter, and he said: "The elder brother has such great ambitions, the younger brother must be a fly with the tail! ”
Gao Cheng nodded and said: "If you want to find a send, you must open the door, and the Duke of Chu can give me a petty official of Chengjielang through the Zongren Mansion, but there is nothing I can do about the specific send." So I'll have to find another way!"
"I heard that the most powerful person in Tokyo is Taishi Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Liang Shicheng, and Gao Yu, if you can get through the door of these people, it will be easy to find a dispatch!"
Zhu Wu's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly said: "Brother, these people are all big traitors, if you let others know that your brother passed through them and became an official, it will hinder your reputation in the future!"
"What you said is good, but being an official is all about doing things without care, as long as we sit up straight, who can say that we are traitors' henchmen?"
Gao Cheng said: "Cai Jing, Tong Guan and Liang Shicheng's threshold is too high, I am going to take Gao Yu's way, first find a way to get a mission in Tokyo, and then leave Tokyo." ”
Zhu Wu lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "Brother, this method is feasible!"
Gao Cheng and Zhu Wu talked about these things because they didn't want Zhu Wu, a person with outstanding wisdom, to speculate on his own, after all, the things he took the road of Gao Yu to seek a mission could not be hidden, as long as he investigated carefully, he could find out.
If he didn't say these things to Zhu Wu, then when Zhu Wu found out what he had done, he couldn't say that he would be dissatisfied and cut off relations with him. No matter how strategic Zhu Wu is, he has been messing around in the rivers and lakes for so long, and he is contaminated with the habit of green forests, attaches great importance to righteousness, and is very disgusted and despised for traitors and traitors.
On the second day, Gao Cheng asked Zhu Wu and Chen Da to inquire about Lin Chong, Xu Ning and Yang Zhi first. These three people are all rare masters in Tiangang Star.
Now inquire about the news, and when these three people are in trouble, they can recruit the three people just right, so as to prevent them from being cornered and forced to go to Liangshan.
Gao Cheng himself asked for the road and walked directly towards Gao Yu's mansion.
The streets of Tokyo are crowded with pedestrians, from small traders and vendors selling all kinds of things to yakinai with dog legs. There are also shabby scholars who pinch folding fans and shake their heads and pretend to be amorous.
Gao Yu's mansion occupies a small half of the streets in Tokyo, and there are two big lions outside the door, and two elite family members guard the gate, which is quite majestic.
When Gao Cheng walked to the door of Gaofu, he happened to see two big men coming out of Gaofu, one of them had a leopard head and eyes, a majestic figure, and his eyes contained divine light, and the other was also dignified, with two short beards.
"The leopard's head is ringed with eyes, like Zhang Fei, and he can still enter and exit Gaofu, this person is Lin Chong!"
When Gao Cheng saw the appearance of one of them, he immediately confirmed the identity of the other party in his heart. He was slightly surprised in his heart, according to his observations, Lin Chong's cultivation did not seem to be the unique qi of the heroes of the rivers and lakes, but the true qi of the inner family! The aura was lingering and very long.
This is very inconsistent with his looks.
