Chapter Forty-Nine: Confusing Truth with Falsehood
Shan Zong was a little stunned, his hands subconsciously touched his pockets, he really responded to that sentence, his pocket was cleaner than his face, and he said curtly: "I left Minghai in a hurry, and the property I had accumulated over the years was distributed to the brothers, and I only brought thousands of Wen with me in case of emergency. After arriving in Huiji County, he had no worries about food and clothing, and even rewarded these thousands of texts. This time he escaped from the fishing village, and he relied on catching birds and fishing to eat along the way, and there was really nothing to repay Lang Jun. ”
He Wei's eyes showed a playful look, and said, "Oh, is it? Penniless, how did you go to Dongshi to buy things the day before yesterday? ”
"This ...... This ......"
Shan Zong smiled and said: "Qiantang is rich, not as barren as the mountains and mountains, I found a rich family to borrow some money, and when it becomes prosperous in the future, I will double it and exchange it back!" ”
This is not a big deal, but it can remind Xu You to remember that it is true that Shanzong was born in the Hanoi Shan clan, and it is not false that he still has a little bit of courtesy, righteousness and shame, but his thoughts, behaviors and cognition of the world have been deeply influenced by the Ming pirates, and he will unconsciously expose his evil side, and he needs to be slowly channeled to prevent trouble.
As for whether he will take refuge or not, Xu You actually doesn't care very much, taking him in at this moment is too risky. But He Wei did not fancy the person of Shanzong, but his qualifications, connections and network in the Ming pirates.
No ambitious person can ignore the power of the pirates. They have been entrenched at sea for many years, the enemy of the imperial court, brave and good at fighting, especially proficient in water warfare, if the current thief is not content with the status quo, I am afraid that it would have grown to a terrible extent.
"Actually, you're not without a long body!"
Shan Zong was stunned and said, "Is there one?" Okay, if I have anything that Lang Jun values, I can take it! ”
"What about your life?"
Shan Zong's eyebrows gathered, as if the outline carved out with a knife and axe, and said, "Lang Jun wants me to die?" ”
He Wei smiled and said: "I don't want you to die, I want you to live, and then sell your life to Qilang!" ”
Shan Zong's head shook as if a boat had encountered a strong wind, licking his face and laughing: "My life is worthless!" ”
"The goods are sold to the family, Fu said that when the plate was built, when the rubber was sold and the fish were sold, and when Baili Xi was trapped in the city, their lives were not valuable, but then they met the British master, and they were immediately worth a toss, you are a smart person, you must understand what I mean."
Shan Zong gags, but he is not a fool, of course he knows what He Wei wants. In the final analysis, everything in the world is a transaction, some people are willing to buy, some people are willing to sell, as long as the price is right, family affection can be ignored, family and country can be betrayed, and even life can be wanted. He has dealt with Xu You, who is a treacherous and ghost-like master, and it is light to do business with such a person, but it is precisely because of this that he believes that Xu You is a good talker, although the combination of interests is not good, but it can always make people feel at ease, and only by tying his life to Xu You can he do his best to ensure his safety. Slowly restrained his smile, thought about it seriously, and said, "I don't kill women and children!" ”
"We don't kill women or children!"
"I don't commit adultery!"
"Men can't even control their desires, so how can they do something big?"
"I'm not an enemy of the Hanoi Mountain Clan!"
"The Shan clan has long been far away from the center of the government and the opposition, and should not be our enemy!"
"I don't ......"
He Wei raised his hand, interrupted his words, and said lightly: "Mountain Sect, we don't have to do this deal, your life is not worthy of too many conditions!" ”
Shan Zong raised his head, sighed, and said, "Lang Jun is right, the biggest advantage of me is that I have self-knowledge. Since I have to sell my life, I have to set a deadline, otherwise, this deal will not be a good deal for me! ”
Xu You took over the topic and said, "Three years!" Do things for me in three years, and then you are willing to leave and stay, as you like! ”
Before Shan Zong came to Jingyuan, he had already thought that even if he paid a big price, he would persuade Xu You to help. He must not die in Qiantang, especially not now, there are still many things that need to be done by him, and he is really unwilling to die now. Judging from the current situation, Xu You's request was not excessive, and said, "Okay, as long as I can escape from the Zhu family this time, I can follow Xu Langjun for three years." ”
"It's a deal!"
Shan Zong straightened his clothes, knelt down on his knees, looked solemn, folded his hands and touched the ground with his forehead, and said: "Within three years, only Lang Jun's order is obeyed, and the order is forbidden, and there is no second heart!" ”
He paused, raised his finger that had just coagulated the blood, and said pitifully, "Why don't I swear blood again?" ”
"No need!" Xu You stepped forward to help him up, and said with a smile: "Oaths, if you talk too much, they are not binding." You don't look like a good person, but I'm willing to give you the right amount of trust! ”
Shan Zong smiled very flatteringly, and said: "I am disgusting and kind, Lang Jun will get along more in the future, and you will find that I am actually a very good person!" ”
Zuo Yan on the side couldn't listen to it anymore, and whispered to He Wei: "On the boat at the mouth of the Changhe River that day, the mountain sect was unruly, witty, and quite free and proud of a giant thief in the rivers and lakes. ”
"The drowning man finally grabbed a life-saving straw, and it is not a big deal to say a few words of compliment!" He Wei didn't care, Zuo Yan was too square, and with a faceless and skinless master like Shanzong on his side, it would sometimes be better to use.
Grunt!
There was a roar in his stomach, and Shan Zong touched it embarrassedly, and said, "I haven't eaten enough for several days......
Xu You patted Shanzong's shoulder, expressed sympathy, and said, "Autumn equinox, go to the kitchen to make a bowl of noodles." ”
The autumn equinox outside the door was about to leave, and Shanzong stretched his neck and shouted, "Big bowl, big bowl!" ”
He Wei quipped: "Fenghu, teach you two sentences: one, you must not run out of money; Second, don't offend people you can't afford to provoke! Otherwise, you only want to eat a big bowl of noodles on the way to escape! ”
"Laughing, laughing!"
The mountain sect arched his hand, and he couldn't see any embarrassment. Zuo Yan was deeply surprised, how many faces a person has, arrogant when proud, cowardly when frustrated, or maybe these are not the real him, disguised, covered up and flowing under the surface of the world, there is also an unknown mountain sect.
After eating supper, Shan Zong took a hot bath again, and lay comfortably on the bed, his limbs were released, very relaxed and casual. Xu You never minds the way friends or subordinates get along, as long as they are comfortable with each other, the rules and etiquette on the surface are not important. He sat on the futon and discussed with He Wei how to deal with the Zhu family. Soon, the two reached an agreement and called the Mountain Sect, and Xu You asked, "Where did you lock up Zhu Lingbo?" ”
"Higashi!"
"Oh, Higashi...... Dayin and Chao, Zhongyin in the city, you will choose a place! He Wei's heart moved, and said, "Let me guess, is it from the rich family where you stole the money?" ”
"Can you guess that?"
Shan Zong was shocked and inexplicable, admired He Wei, and said, "He Langjun, you are really clever. I first took a thousand coins from the merchant's bank, made a noise, and then hid it in the dark, and when my master and his servants searched it, I ruled out the suspicion that someone had burglarized the house, and mistook it for someone who had unclean hands and feet, and whipped him and drove him out of the house. Only then did he take Zhu Lingbo to hide in the cellar used to store ice cubes in the summer, which was secluded, no one cleaned it, and he lived for ten days and a half months, not afraid that anyone would find out. ”
Zuo Yan was puzzled and said, "If you want to hide, just hide in the cellar, why do you want to deliberately alarm the other party?" ”
He Wei explained: "This is a common trick in the rivers and lakes, first designed to make the other party suspicious, from the inside to the outside carefully searched, no matter whether the thief is caught or not, will naturally relax their vigilance, thinking that no one will dare to steal in a short time." In this way, hiding in it is safer than usual. ”
Zuo Yan has been in the military formation for a long time, and he doesn't know much about the tricks in the rivers and lakes, and after hearing this, he shook his head and said: "His wing Langjun is not only a hundred times better than me, but also a hundred times better than me in knowledge and experience, compared with you, I am really ashamed!" ”
"Each has its own specialty, if I compare my fists and feet with you, and compare swordsmanship, I won't be beaten with a blue nose and swollen face?" He Wei looked at the Mountain Sect and said, "You have been out for so long, what if Zhu Lingbo breaks free of the shackles and escapes?" ”
"No!"
Shan Zong was very confident, and said: "I gave her a secret medicine, her body was sore and weak, and her head was also dizzy, and she couldn't concentrate on thinking about the problem, let alone forcibly break the rope that bound her. Whether you are clever or powerful, you can only become a fish on the sword. ”
"That's good!"
He Wei didn't say a word more, and didn't seem to be interested in the secret medicine in the mouth of the Mountain Sect. Shan Zong originally planned to offer a treasure, the preparation method of this secret medicine was extremely secretive, if it weren't for him and that person being called the best brothers among the Ming pirates, otherwise they wouldn't have learned this unique skill. A pill is worth 10,000 dollars, it is very precious, and it is often used to deal with those chaste martyrs who have plundered the island.
However, he has always despised this kind of lewd * female behavior, and this time in order to deal with Zhu Lingbo, it was the first time to use it, and the effect was quite good. So I wanted to talk to the new lord I had just worshipped, and took the initiative to say it, but I didn't expect it to be taken seriously at all.
Xu You Zhengse said: "Mountain Sect, I have discussed with Qi Yi, the Zhu family has suffered such a great humiliation, even if you ask Gu Yun to come forward and talk about it, it is impossible to spare your life." So, if you want to save your life, you can only die first! ”
"Huh?"
Shan Zong didn't know why, and said: "Although I am a little fierce, I am also a bitter person who only has one life, and God has no heart at all." Lang Jun wants me to die first, could it be that there is a thaumaturgy to bring the dead back to life? ”
"There is no thaumaturgy!" Xu You smiled and said, "However, with the means of hypocrisy, there is still a little bit of ......"
