Hu Guiyang returned to Zhao's house, strictly speaking, this is already Hu's house, but he doesn't plan to replace the plaque, not because he wants to commemorate anything, but because he is troublesome.

Standing in the middle of the front and back yards, he watched the hordes of craftsmen building houses in full swing, and it seemed that the house would be restored to its original state before the first snow of the winter fell.

Something pounced from behind, Hu Guiyang didn't look back, stretched out his hand to scratch the dog's head, and asked, "Are these craftsmen you found?" ”

"Do you have any other skills besides burying people?" The flower lady came from behind.

Hu Guiyang hurriedly turned around and smiled: "Don't dare." It costs a lot of money to hire these craftsmen, right? ”

Mrs. Hua frowned and said nothing, and the little brother next to her said, "Uncle Sanliu, don't pretend, didn't you invite these people?" Just arrived this morning. ”

Hu Guiyang understood, looked into the middle of the crowd, and sure enough, he saw Bai Sheng, the elder of the original god wood sect, who changed into a carpenter's clothes, which was difficult to identify.

"I really invited you, I'll go say hello." Hu Guiyang took two steps and turned to look at the mother and son of the Hua family and the big cake, "I've been missing for a few days, and you're not in a hurry at all?" ”

"What's there to hurry? Uncle Sanliu must be fine, won't you come back? Brother Hua smiled.

Mrs. Hua said coldly: "I'm only anxious about one thing, you haven't made a good will yet." ”

"Wills? Who does Uncle Sanliu want to leave this house to? Brother Hua immediately became interested.

"Leave it to the rhubarb."

"It's a dog!"

"And Second Uncle Sun."

"That's an old fellow......"

Mrs. Hua patted her son on the head, "Anyway, it's none of your business." ”

"Co-authoring our Hua family is just busy in vain." Brother Hua said in a low voice.

Hu Guiyang had already walked among the craftsmen, and bowed his hand to Bai Sheng from a distance: "Brother Bai will come as soon as he says, and he won't say hello in advance?" ”

Bai Sheng greeted him and walked to the side with Hu Guiyang to speak, "Don't call 'Big Brother Bai' yet, to tell you the truth, I don't really support you in joining the church." ”

"I understand, in fact, I don't want to, but God can't disobey, there's no way." Hu Guiyang said with a smile, and the words "God's will is difficult to disobey" came out of his mouth, somewhat mocking.

Bai Sheng snorted lightly, "But rules are rules, and no one can go back on the oath they have made." You really want to take the jade back, right? ”

"Of course, I have at least one advantage of being the sect leader, we can confidently say 'recapture' the Divine Jade."

Bai Sheng had to admit that this was indeed a benefit, "We came here to build a house and facilitate contact. Let's not say it's okay, you go back to Nansi and inquire about the progress of the government's side, how did you get here? ”

"Wait for Nanji to come to me." Hu Guiyang blinked his eyes, "If Nansi is a petty official, it means that Chen Xun and Shenyu have been arrested, let's give up, I will return to the position of sect leader, and from now on, I will not interfere with your well water." If Nan Si comes to the big official, and even Dongchang also sends people, it means that Shenyu has not been found, so we still have a chance. ”

Bai Sheng admired the intelligence and calmness of the "sect leader", but he didn't like his frivolity, "If you have something, you can come to me, I will live here during the construction of the house, and I will look for you when I have something." ”

"I live in the front yard, not necessarily in any room, you just call my name."

Hu Guiyang returned to the mother and son of the Hua family and said with a smile: "A friend I met a few years ago heard that I was going to renovate the house, so I came to help without saying a word." ”

"It's really righteous, such a friend is worth making. Uncle Sanliu, introduce me to it. "Brother Hua is very envious.

Mrs. Hua pushed her son away, "If you have a cheap friend, it's worth making?" If you have such thoughts, who wants to make friends with you? Mrs. Hua looked at Hu Guiyang, "I thought you didn't have serious friends, so I'm much more relieved." I'll get you two servants, and if you don't have anything to do in the future, at least someone will clean up the house and feed the rhubarb. Alas, why let it meet you in the first place? ”

"Don't they care that this is a murderous mansion?"

"I care, so I asked for three times the salary, and I may leave at any time, so we can't stop him."

"I guess I can't stop it."

The two servants are in their forties, they are very honest, and they urgently need money, so they agreed to come to Zhao's house to be a servant, and they were a little relieved to see the many craftsmen in the backyard.

The gate of Zhao's house was closed, the small door was always open, and someone came in and stood at the door waiting.

Brother Hua was the first to notice the visitor and asked his mother in a low voice: "Is this going to be called uncle?" ”

Mrs. Hua glanced at it, "No." Let's go home. ”

Shi Guida is a hundred households in brocade clothes, and the little brother Hua really wants to make friends, but his mother walks over without squinting, but he bows his hand.

Shi Guida returned the salute, didn't say anything, and walked up to Hu Guiyang, "I didn't expect you to buy here." ”

"I didn't expect that it was Mrs. Hua who made the decision for me, and I haven't even seen the deed yet."

Shi Guida turned his head and glanced at it, the mother and son of the Hua family were nowhere to be seen, "You just let her call the shots?" ”

"I'm lazy, someone is in charge, I only have gratitude in my heart, and I don't have any other thoughts."

Shi Gui laughed, when the two still had brotherhood, he didn't quite understand the thoughts of the third and sixth brothers, and after parting ways, he couldn't guess it.

"Let's go to my house for dinner."

Shi Guida, who hadn't seen him for a few years, actually came to invite him in person, Hu Guiyang was very surprised, "It's not that I don't want to go, but I want to wait for someone." ”

"The person you're waiting for is in my house."

Hu Guiyang came to his senses and said with a smile: "Then you must go." Are you still working in the West Factory? ”

"Transferred back to Weili, there is nothing to do at the moment."

"It's rare that you have free time."

The two of them went out of the house together, both wanted to find a topic, and when the words came to their mouths, they swallowed them back, and finally found that it was most appropriate to remain silent.

The "bosses" are all here, Gong Shangming of Dongchang Factory, Fu Liangxiu of Nansi Town, Wei Ying of Baihu of Xichang, and Lizi Province.

Li and Shang were in the center, Liang and Wei were standing, and Shi Guida immediately knelt forward as soon as he entered his own hall, and got up and stepped aside after being approved.

Hu Guiyang just gave up his hand and said with a smile: "So many adults are here, and the room has become much smaller." ”

Everyone had long been accustomed to his arrogance, and no one was polite, only Liang Xiu's eyes were resentful, and he quickly looked away.

Shang Ming was the first to speak, "Hu Guiyang, Zuo Yu has already confessed, and the matter has come to this point, which is unexpected and even more regrettable." Zuo Yu is the old man of my East Factory, he has always been calm, but he didn't expect it...... Alas. ”

"Zuo pre-blame is self-inflicted, he can't blame others, he killed the captain of the West Factory, colluded with the Taoist priest of Lingji Palace, but did not ask for help from the old colleagues of the East Factory, which shows that the factory is under the control of the master, and the left pre-dare not cross the line."

Although Shang Ming didn't have a good impression of Hu Guiyang, he was very happy when he heard these words, and was about to open his mouth to laugh, but Liang Xiu beside him preemptively said: "Zuo Yu claims that Shenyu is still in your hands, but you have deceived him......"

Hu Guiyang said with a smile: "I haven't finished talking yet, Zuo Yu is more than calm in the East Factory, why is it like a different person when he is transferred to Nansi?" This matter is worth pondering. ”

"What do you mean? Do you want to frame me again? Liang Xiu was furious and couldn't help but step forward.

Shang Ming was also furious, but he aimed at Liang Xiu, "Your matter is so important, do you have to say it now?" Didn't you already clear your name? What else? ”

Liang Xiu was more in awe of Shang Ming than the emperor, his face changed suddenly, and he immediately retreated, "Nephew...... The lower official is guilty, and the lower official is guilty. ”

Shang Ming softened his tone slightly, "With so many people coming, I don't mean anything else, I just want to ask you for an understanding." ”

"I did deceive Zuo Yu, but the Shenyu is really not in my hands. Chen Xun was caught? ”

No one replied.

Hu Guiyang continued: "I haven't been to the docks, and no one has informed me of the news, but I'm sure that the person who killed Jiang Yun must be Chen Xun. ”

Shang Ming sighed softly, "Originally, we didn't believe it, but after interrogating everyone on the ship, we can't help but believe that it was indeed Chen Xun who killed someone." ”

"Empty-handed?"

Shang Ming nodded again.

Li Zixing interjected: "How do you know it's empty-handed?" ”

"Hehe, it's a clear truth, Shenyu can only increase strength, it is impossible to teach skills, Chen Xun is now extremely powerful, and he shouldn't be able to talk about moves at all."

Li Zixing didn't ask any more.

Shang Ming said: "We want to confirm one thing, Chen Xun's power is not divine power, right?" ”

"Tell me first, where did Chen Xun go?"

Shang Ming and the others didn't answer, and Hu Guiyang said with a smile: "If he flees to the east, north, and west, it will be to get divine power, and hiding is the first priority." If he went south, he might be looking for a way to absorb divine power. ”

Shang Ming nodded, "That makes sense." We found out that Chen Xun changed to a land route after killing people, and it is very likely that he wanted to go south to find He Sanchen. This is a big trouble, he just touched the divine jade, and he has obtained far more power than ordinary people, if he gets the divine power, then what can he do? ”

"No matter how strong he is, he is also a mortal, and if you send more people, you will definitely be able to capture him."

Li Zixing interjected again, "We are not worried about Chen Xun, at most three days, he will definitely be caught, what we are worried about is that He Sanchen, if Shenyu falls into her hands, it will be a great misfortune in the world." ”

"It's not that exaggerated, is it?"

Shang Ming said: "Hu Guiyang, don't exaggerate for the time being, you have to go to Jiangnan with the team, and you must prevent He Sanchen from getting the divine jade." There are a lot of rumors outside, but Li Xianchang and I still decided to believe you, and made a guarantee in front of Your Majesty, complete the task, the first credit belongs to you, if something goes wrong, the blame is also on you. ”

"The factory really loves me and gives me such a good job." Hu Guiyang said with a smile, knowing very well in his heart that sending him to Jiangnan was actually to be a hostage and used to threaten Third Sister He, "Jiangnan is big, where are you going?" ”

"You don't have to worry about it, go back and pack your things, and leave early tomorrow morning."

"The factory man ordered, I didn't have anything to say. That's it? ”

Shang Ming nodded.

Hu Guiyang arched his hand and said: "Farewell, I'll go home and clean up, I haven't slept on the new bed yet." ”

Hu Guiyang left, several people in the hall looked at each other, and Li Zi said: "This kid will definitely be bad." ”

Shang Ming said: "No way, if you can successfully recover the divine jade, it is naturally the best, if you don't, he may be useful, in short, just watch it closer." ”

Shi Guida stepped forward, "The lower officials must not leave an inch." ”

No one else said anything, only Wei Ying smiled: "It's not easy, I have stared at him, and I never leave, but he still surprised me." ”

"Please rest assured that Wei Baihu knows all his tricks." Shi Guida said lightly.

Hu Guiyang walked home and muttered, "He also said that he invited me to dinner, but he didn't even drink a cup of tea." ”

It was already dark, the craftsmen rested, those who were close to home went home, and those who were farther away lived in the house.

Hu Guiyang found Bai Sheng and told him the news he had gotten.

"We will send someone to follow you secretly, if there is a chance......"

Hu Guiyang shook his head and said with a smile: "Competing with the factory guards for the divine jade is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg." If the Divine Jade is still in Chen Xun's hands, the Five Elements Sect will give up, so as not to summon the disaster of killing. ”

"Shenyu must be on him, who would be willing to put it elsewhere?"

"There are ifs for everything, for Chen Xun, there is Sanchen in front of him, and there is Jinyiwei in the back, every step is difficult, if I am him, I will hide the divine jade, and negotiate with He Sanchen to get it again."

Bai Sheng thought so, "Where will it be hidden?" ”

"If you look for it, just take it as a bet, if you can't find it, you won't lose it, and you won't offend the court, if you find it, you must keep it secret." Hu Guiyang blinked again.

Bai Sheng no longer felt that the "sect leader" was frivolous this time, and he felt a little admiration in his heart, and said: "I think the chances of winning are not small." ”
