Chapter 324: Persistence
A trace of panic flashed on Lin Tian's face, hesitated for a moment, stepped forward, bowed to the old man, and said, "Old Zhang, Xu Shan is very polite!"
Seeing Lin Tian's respectful appearance, the old man breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Xu Shan, I don't think I know you! What are you doing with me?"
Lin Tian's face showed some hesitation. He took a few more steps forward and said with his hand, "I have something that is difficult to propose to Lao Zhang. ”
The old man frowned and replied, "I am an ignorant little old man. What can I do for you?"
"I want to borrow my husband's booth and wait for an old friend."
"Borrow a booth and wait for someone?"
Lin Tian nodded, his face was bitter, and replied, "I originally wanted to find a restaurant on the street to work as a waiter. When I'm making a living, I'm waiting for someone. But after two days of searching, I couldn't find a restaurant willing to take me in. ”
Speaking of this, Lin Tianxian let out a long sigh, and then added: "Now that my lower abdomen is empty, when I saw my husband taking care of such a big stall alone, I took the liberty to follow up and see if my husband could make a living for me in the next business." ”
The old man was silent for a moment and asked, "Who are you waiting for?"
Thirty years ago, he and his uncle came to Tianyu City. I heard that he was a gift from the prince's palace. ”
"30 years apart, maybe you saw your cousin, but you didn't recognize him!"
Lin Tian shook his head and said with a straight face: "The next cousin has six fingers on his left hand and a very conspicuous mole on his forehead on his left hand, which is very easy to identify. ”
Without waiting for the old man's answer, Lin Tian bowed to the old man again and said in a deep voice, "I just want two meals a day and a place to sleep." I also want the old man to take me in. ”
The old man looked at Lin Tian carefully, hesitated for a while, put down his burden, looked at Lin Tian and said, "You choose!"
"Thank you, uncle!"
Lin Tian bowed and saluted the old man again. He happily walked to the front of the cargo, hung the package on one end of the cargo, and picked it up.
At that time, Lin Tian was a coolie. At this time, he shouldered the burden with dignity, just as he often did this kind of hard work.
Lin Tian walked forward a few steps briskly with his burden, then stopped, asking the old man's name as he walked.
The old man Hu Quan is a native of Tianyu City. He has no children, lives alone and has been buying dried fruit for more than 40 years.
Lin Tian probably asked about the old man's situation, and the old man also asked about Lin Tian's situation.
They talked and walked, and when it was completely dark, they came to a small courtyard.
There are four houses in the courtyard, one is Hu Quan's bedroom, one is a warehouse for storing dried fruits, one is a kitchen, and the other is a utility room.
Hu Quan gave Lin Tian a few pieces of rice cakes to make dinner, and asked Lin Tian to go to the utility room to find a place to rest.
In this way, Hayashida stayed in Tianyu City as a vendor who bought dry goods on the street.
In the corner of the stall of Hu Quan, near the palace, all the powerful people lived nearby. Lin Tian could easily find some information about the Daewoo Dynasty by observing passers-by and listening to the gossip of nearby vendors. Of course, these vendors don't see much and only know a few things. Hayashida's information is limited. He didn't expect to find what he wanted to know from these vendors.
In fact, the reason he chose to stay on this street corner was to spy on some of the movements of the Daewoo royal family.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed.
In the past six months, Lin Tian has indeed seen several princes of the Daewoo Dynasty on the street, but he has never seen anyone fly out of the palace.
This morning, Hu Quan eliminated his discomfort and let Lin Tian set up the stall alone.
Lin Tiandan was walking towards his destination with the goods, and just as he was about to set up his stall, a blue man riding a blue rhinoceros suddenly appeared in front of him.
"This man seems to have seen it there!"
Lin Tian frowned, pondered for a while, and couldn't remember where he had seen that person, so he looked up at the blue man again.
At this time, there were not many people on the street. Lin Tian just stared at the blue man a few times before he discovered it. Seeing what the man in blue thought of him, Lin Tian hurriedly lowered his head.
The blue man rode a blue rhinoceros towards Lin Tian, stopped for a moment, and looked directly at Lin Tian's big head. Only then did he move on.
Only after the man in blue had walked a distance did Lin Tian raise his head.
"This guy is so good-looking!"
Lin Tian frowned and thought for a while. When the man in blue and the two guards behind him turned to the street facing the palace gate, he first set up his stall, then walked to the stall selling flower essences on the side, and asked the old man Zheng who had set up the stall, "Mr. Zheng, do you know the man who rode the green ox?"
Old man Zheng glanced at the street corner in front of him and smiled, "There is almost no one on this street who doesn't recognize him." He is the general of Sanjiu. ”
"General Sanjiu?"
Uncle Zheng nodded and smiled: "It is said that hundreds of years ago, on the third day of September every year, he would ride a green ox to the palace. ”
"It turned out to be such a 39-year-old general!"
Lin Tian paused again, and then asked, "Does the old man know the name of General Sanjiu?"
Uncle Zheng shook his head and smiled, "We don't have the right to know the name of such a big person. However, people say that his surname seems to be Zhu. ”
"Mr. Zhu?"
Lin Tian frowned, thought for a while, and then walked to his stall.
casually sent two middle-aged men over to make jokes, Lin Tian recalled with a frown while sorting out the dried fruits on the stall.
Suddenly, Lin Tian remembered the identity of the 39 generals, and crushed the bitter almonds in his hands with a clenched hand.
"It's him!"
Lin Tian looked up at the palace and saw a cold light flashing in his eyes. He said to himself, "Is he a traitor who betrayed the military sect?"
When Lin Tian first went to Wucheng, Wu Zongju's discussion about martial arts was about to take place. On the stage of the martial arts performance in Wucheng, he watched the martial arts competition for nearly two months.
Lin Tian's memory has been somewhat blurred, and now it has been provoked by General 39.
This 39 general was Lin Tian's first visit to Wucheng that year. He made outstanding contributions to the Wu State Conference, and then joined Zhu Ming of the Wu faction.
That year, Lin Tian did not see Zhu Ming again after entering the clan ceremony. Therefore, he does not have too deep a memory.
After reviewing some of the events of that year, Lin Tian secretly thought to himself, "This Zhu Ming is ruthless, fiery, and arrogant. He may really be a traitor who betrayed the military faction. ”
In the early morning, there are not many pedestrians on the streets, and few people patronize these street stalls. Lin Tian used this free time to ask Uncle Zheng about Zhu Ming's situation.
Uncle Zheng didn't know much about Zhu Ming, but he also knew that Zhu Ming's residence was on Huafu Street.
"If he is really a traitor who betrayed Takejong, I will arrest him, which may cause the Daewoo royal family to be vigilant. ”
After thinking about it for a while, Lin Tian gave up his plan to deal with Zhu Ming.
In the evening, Lin Tian returned to Hu Quan's residence. After dinner, Lin Tian said goodbye to Hu Quan.
"Are you leaving?"
"Hmm!"
Lin Tian nodded, not explaining anything.
Once a person is lazy, it is difficult to be diligent anymore. These days, Hu Quan used to be carefree. Of course, he didn't want Lin Tian to go. However, his heart is not too bad. After convincing Lin Tian, he saw that Lin Tian refused to stay any longer. He just said that he wouldn't give Lin Tian any money, but he didn't bully Lin Tian to stay.
Early the next morning, Lin Tian said goodbye to Hu Quan, changed his appearance in another alley, changed his clothes again, and walked to Huafu Street.
There are no shops on Wah Fu Street, and Hayashi Tian has not been there. However, since there was only one Zhu Fu on Huafu Street, he could easily determine Zhu Ming's residence.
After determining Zhu Ming's residence, Lin Tian easily borrowed a booth, covered it with almost the same words as Hu Quan, and monitored Zhu Fu's movements.
Suddenly, another three months passed.
In the past three months, Lin Tian has not seen Zhu Ming go out, but he often sees the sedan chair entering and leaving Zhu Fu. Hayashida inquired and was surprised to find that the palanquin was actually a palanquin in a brothel.
In the field of planting, there are many men who are greedy for flowers, and there are also many women who exchange their lives for profit. Therefore, there are also brothels in the field of cultivation.
Lin Tian observed the brothel to which the sedan chair belonged for a few days, and then determined the general temperament of the sedan chair driver, who took the sedan chair to Zhu Ming's residence and the place where they lived.
On this day, Lin Tian quietly slipped into a palanquin's house, confused him, and then changed into his appearance, changed into his clothes, and went to a brothel instead of him.
The sedan chair of the brothel often went to the Zhuming Palace. Lin Tian came to the brothel as a sedan chair man and was sent to bring the sedan chair to Zhuming Palace.
In Zhu Ming Palace, after the woman in the sedan chair was taken away by Zhu Fu's maid, Lin Tian was surprised to learn from the other three sedan chair men that the woman named the brothel was Zhu Ming himself.
"I can't believe he's so!"
Lin Tian followed the maid with his mind to find Zhu Ming's residence, and then took advantage of the negligence of the other three palanquin bearers to leave the palanquin and sneak out of Zhu Ming's room.
"There were no guards at the door of the room, they were the only ones in the room. He was cooperative. ”
Lin Tian changed his appearance, changed his clothes, and walked towards the door with a sneering smile on the corner of his mouth.
When Zhu Ming approached him with the power of the Yuan Shen, Lin Tianxian attacked Zhu Ming and the brothel woman with the curse of killing the Divine Thorn and the frightened, respectively. Then, he walked to the door of the room, pushed open the door, walked to Zhu Ming's bed again, and sprinkled the god-killing thorn on Zhu Ming before he woke up.
Zhu Ming had fourth-class achievements at that time, but his achievements to the Yuan Shen were far inferior to Lin Tian. Under Lin Tian's sneak attack and careful calculation, he was fascinated by Lin Tian's successful magic, provided that he was not attacked by the stabbing of the God of Destruction.
Lin Tianchen took a deep breath and asked, "Have you betrayed the Witch Emperor?"
Zhu Ming struggled for a moment, then replied, "Yes!"
Although Lin Tianxin had long suspected it, hearing Zhu Ming's words, he couldn't help but lose his mind for a moment.
