A young man with a heavy sword and a tattered gourd hanging on his waist, leading a puppy cub, appeared at the textile market in Shanliang County at regular intervals every day. The textile market is still the same, things are people, and the old man with a goatee has never appeared.

The swarthy wooden boy was in a low mood, took off the gourd on his waist and took a sip of water. sighed secretly: "I met in the rivers and lakes, and I forgot about the rivers and lakes, maybe this is the rivers and lakes of the old man with a goatee." ”

At the end of the street, a majestic retreat voice said: "Give way to the idlers on the county guard." ”

The sound is loud and clear, accompanied by gong reminders. interrupted the young man's thoughts. As the crowd retreated to the edge of the road.

I saw dozens of heavily armed soldiers in front and back opening the way, and the eight stations in the middle shouted and trembled, slowly walking on the road where pedestrians gave way.

This scene is full of grandeur, if you don't know it, saying that it is the state city too shou to inspect, some people will believe it. The fly in the ointment is that the inside of the petite is too heavy, and the sedan pole is bent downward. The eight sedan chair bearers were sweating profusely, and they couldn't bear it a little.

Inside the spacious lady, this official man is full of sadness. He was in no mood to pay attention to the feelings of the palanquin man, and stared at the two large boxes in front of him with a painful face.

After opening the lid with love, Jiaozi suddenly burst into a jewel. The official master played with the gold ingots for a while, and then played with a few jade ornaments.

Finally, I finally made up my mind to open a small box that I wanted to see but didn't dare to look at. Located in the middle of two large boxes, it is much smaller in size, less than one-third of the large box.

When opened, there were all gold coins of the same size, stacked neatly, just enough to fill the small boxes.

The official man trembled and counted: "One dragon money, two dragon money, three dragon money......"

"No, no, no, you can't count it. The more you count, the more heartache I get. Damn Yu Hongguang, he is not sentimental at all. If you open your mouth and close your mouth to the cottage and lack money, won't a son die? ”

"You take your Yangguan Road, and I take my single-plank bridge. Master Ben is a small county guard, and he can't afford to raise this group of white-eyed wolves. ”

The official man sighed: "Hey, once I returned to Qingyang Town, it was time to return to Qingyang Town." I have to ask these parents outside for help, and I have to think of a way to add some taxes. ”

Pap pap slam the lid of the three boxes, and you can't see it. Turning his head and lifting the curtains of Jiaozi, he looked at the large number of pedestrians in the textile market, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.

The swarthy young man standing behind the crowd had always had good eyesight, and he suddenly saw who the official master who leaned out of the window was.

The fat face is too obvious, and you can't recognize it if you want to. It is the county guard of Shanliang County. Xing Zhen suddenly remembered all kinds of injustices in Qingyang Town, and his heart was full of anger.

The puppy cub lying on Xingzhen's shoulder has a heart with the young man. "Want Want" twice, it seems to be telling about injustice. was so frightened that Xing Zhen immediately covered the puppy's mouth.

Ge Shuren faintly heard the barking of the dog, and looked at the source here: "Hey! ”

Then he comforted himself and shook his head: "How is it possible? This is Shanliang County and not Qingyang Town, how can you see acquaintances." I think I'm a court official, how can I know a little kid. ”

Dispelling the doubts in his heart, Geshuren retracted his head. Don't think about distressed matters for the time being, close your eyes and recuperate.

Xing Zhen walked on the periphery of the crowd and slowly followed the escort team. Viciously whispered and threatened: "I'm barking, be careful to stew you and eat dog meat." ”

The puppy lying on his shoulder shook his head vigorously with his head in his hands, and he really didn't make a sound.

Jiaozi stopped at the expensive and worthwhile restaurant, and waited for Ge Shu to enter. Xing Zhen also swaggered into the restaurant.

Because he has been to the restaurant twice, the shop guy knows the teenager, so he is not stopped by whether a little kid can consume.

Geshu people are easy to recognize, and you don't need to see your face clearly. Just the figure that is unique in thousands of miles, you can see who it is from a distance, and you have no choice but to run.

Xing Zhen, who had just entered the hall on the first floor, saw the shopkeeper leading Ge Shuren to the corner of the stairs on the second floor. The boy stepped up to the second floor as if nothing had happened.

As soon as he arrived at the corridor, he heard Ge Shuren's roar: "I want so much gold and silver treasures at one time, and there is a lot of dragon money, Yu Hongguang wants to dominate Shuibo Mountain, right?"

The shopkeeper's voice was slightly ashamed: "My lord, forgive me, the owner of the village is in a hurry to improve the grade of the natal divine soldier, so he needs a lot of dragon money." ”

"But don't worry, the owner of the village has already made it clear that he is borrowing rather than asking. When the owner of the village finishes what he wants to do, he will naturally repay it twice. ”

The shopkeeper's voice was not faintly visible, but it was the roar of the Geshu people. It's convenient for Xingzhen, you don't have to look everywhere, you can directly lock the location of the other party.

Xing Zhen entered the next door where the voice came out, and politely ordered a plate of peanuts, and asked the store guy to deliver it quickly.

The guy was like seeing a ghost, and asked repeatedly: "Do you eat hot pot?"

Xing Zhen shook his head: "It's not interesting for me to eat alone, next time I come here with the elders in the family, I will eat a lot." ”

The guy was unwilling, but he didn't say how much the commission was, and a plate of peanuts occupied a private room. After being known by the shopkeeper, he was inevitably scolded.

Patiently continued to ask: "The guest officer is carrying a long sword, and he has the demeanor of a hero. Don't you want a pot of wine, as the saying goes, peanuts go with wine, the more you drink, the more you have. ”

The young man raised the tattered gourd: "This is old wine." ”

The shopkeeper was speechless, and he didn't dare to offend the regular customers, so he scolded with a blue face and scolded in his heart, and served a plate of peanuts with great reluctance.

After the shopkeeper left, Xing Zhen immediately crouched down to the wall. Take out the short black knife of the trouser tube and make a small hole in the wooden partition. The sound followed the hole and faintly entered the ears of Xingzhen.

"Where did you hide the peach blossoms? The Fuji family paid a lot of money, and it must be a complete living person, and it must be a living person who cannot be bullied. ”

"Master Ge, don't worry, someone will send the peach blossoms to Tengfu tonight. ”

"Where's Peach Blossom's grandfather?

"Without Lord Ge's instructions, the cottage will never make decisions privately. It will be sent to Tengfu with peach blossoms. ”

Ge Shuren rubbed his chin, his expression softened slightly, and he praised: "The cottage is doing a good job, people can actually catch it after running for more than half a year, and Shenxiu does have a hand." “

The shopkeeper explained: "Coincidentally, I heard that Taohua and his grandfather have relatives in Songjiang County, and it just so happens that the owner of the village and Wu Fanlian, the keeper of Songjiang County, are acquaintances. After the letter was contacted, I asked Wu Junshou to help find it, and the grandson was really in Songjiang County. ”

"The lord's orders are not to be neglected, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong. personally ran to Songjiang County, so that the grandfather and grandson could be captured at such a speed. ”

Ge Shuren said hatefully: "Even if he has a little conscience in Hongguang, he will also personally go out in this action in Xishan Village, right?"

The shopkeeper said respectfully: "Of course, of course, but the owner of the village wants to ask Master Ge for help." It takes a lot of blood to improve the natal magic weapon, and the population of Xishan Village is too small and the blood is not enough. ”

Ge Shuren's eyes widened and he asked, "Why are you adding conditions again?" Could it be that I am temporarily arrested and sent to Xishan Village, tied up and kneeling in a row waiting for Yu Hongguang to kill?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Don't worry, my lord, the owner of the village has already found out that you have recently transferred to the government to worship a ghost cultivator in the army, presumably this ghost cultivator is very willing to see more dead souls." ”

"My lord wants to win over this ghost cultivator to stay in the mansion, first, to protect your safety, and second, to help investigate this gang of mountain bandits who are rampant in Shanliang County. “

"Sacrifice some ordinary people and win over ghost cultivators to worship. For adults, there is no harm, so why not?"

Ge Shuren suddenly became angry: "You actually investigated me?"

The shopkeeper was tepid, and always smiled: "My lord, forgive me, the mountain bandits and the government have always been at odds." You have to know yourself, you say?"

"The cottage doesn't mean to hurt adults, and besides, the Xishan matter is mutually beneficial to all parties, and adults should think about it carefully. ”

Ge Shuren asked rhetorically: "Yu Hongguang and Ghost Cultivator have interests, who is the third party?"

The shopkeeper said: "Of course it's Lord Ge, everyone in Xishan Village has died, and the land has become a borderless land." Adults can justifiably reclaim the land. ”

"Xishan is far outside Shanliang County, and adults can sell the land to mountain bandits and use it as a stronghold for Shanliang County to walk on the mountain. The price is naturally open with the adults, and most of the mountain bandits are not bad for silver. It's a one-in-one gain. ”

"In this way, you can also make friends with all kinds of mountain bandits, and find out the bandits who are rampant in Shanliang County from their mouths. It's much more convenient than sending someone to track it down yourself, and that's the second thing. ”

"Your Excellency, you can also build a relationship with the bandits and cooperate with each other. You know the profits, gold and silver are not a problem. ”

Ge Shuren's eyes narrowed into a slit, and after thinking for a while, he secretly said that what the shopkeeper said was reasonable. Asked: "How many dead people does Yu Hongguang need, and what method should I use to arrest people in Xishan Village." ”

The shopkeeper said confidently: "My lord, please rest assured, the owner of the village has already helped you think about it." All you need to do is send a servant to cooperate a little. ”

Ge Shuren raised his eyebrows: "And this good thing, let's hear about it?"

The shopkeeper said: "There are many villages around Shanliang County, and Hongguang Cottage pretends to be a group of mountain bandits who rob the rich in Shanliang County. Scattered village houses were burned down and left homeless. “

"Your Excellency will send the officials to gather them in Xishan Village. The cottage side will pay for it, and the adults will come forward to build some thatched huts in Xishan Village. Now that you have the face of loving your people like a son, and you have done your job, why don't you do it?"

Ge Shuren nodded again and again: "It's a good idea, but why didn't Yu Hongguang kill people directly, is it possible to collect blood and choose a good day and an auspicious day?"

The shopkeeper explained: "Adults don't know, it's best to collect enough blood qi at one time for the natal magic weapon, and then advance in one fell swoop. Although the accumulation of fine water and long flow is more beneficial to the natal magic weapon, it is relatively slow to advance. “

"The owner of the village has urgent things to do recently, and he can't delay it for too long, so he thought of this method. ”

Ge Shuren suddenly realized: "After such a long time of money and effort, what does Yu Hongguang want to do?"

The shopkeeper's calmness: "I don't know." ”

Ge Shuren was puzzled: "Wouldn't it be a place to make a fortune and act alone without me?"

The shopkeeper was frightened, and hurriedly reassured: "I really don't know what is small." But adults can rest assured. If there is really a chance to make a fortune, the owner of the village will definitely not eat alone. ”

Ge Shuren patted his stomach: "I believe you for the time being, I'm hungry after chatting for a long time, have you prepared some food?" And there's more, you know. ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly agreed: "It's all ready, my lord will wait a while, I'll arrange it for a while." ”

Out of the private room, the shopkeeper cursed in a low voice: "Damn Ge Da Fatty, eat people and don't spit out bones." Every time I come to eat and drink for nothing, I have to have a woman to serve you. ”

Xing Zhen endured the horror in his heart and didn't exclaim, and beckoned the store guy to pack a mouthful of untouched peanuts, and left in a hurry with the peanuts.
