Chapter 72, the first arrival in Jinling
Wang Lang and his entourage gathered around the bonfire, and it would take three days to get from Jinwu City to Jinling at the earliest, and this was already the evening of the next day. Wang Lang sat by the campfire, carefully took out a small burden from his arms, held it in his hand, thought about it, and put it back. The inner secret agents who had been paying attention to Wang Lang's movements on the side, originally glanced at Wang Lang intentionally or unintentionally, and suddenly showed their disappointment. An agent said to a blackface agent
"How many times has this been taken out?"
The black-faced agent thought for a moment and said
"It seems like the sixth time."
"Hey, don't say it, Miss Butterfly's craftsmanship is really good, that snack is made. Tsk, it's a pity, there's no mouth. ”
The blackface agent said with a smile
"Adults give you food once, and you will be content. I want to eat. Don't you see that adults themselves are reluctant to eat? ”
Although the two of them spoke as quietly as possible, Wang Lang still heard it. I wailed in my heart
"You herds, I am reluctant to eat because of you, I have eaten them all in one go. This piece of Lao Tzu's arms was snatched from the mouths of your herd of animals. ”
It turns out that before leaving, Fluttershy gives Wang Lang a bag of snacks to prevent Wang Lang from going hungry on the road. Who knew that when Wang Lang took it out and just ate the first piece, he found that the group of animals under his hands looked at him pitifully, and they were still holding dry food in their hands. Wang Lang relented for a moment and said
"Brothers, this is a snack made by my maid Fluttershy, please try it."
When this group of people heard Wang Lang's words, they immediately jumped three heights. Without saying a word, one mouth can be stuffed with at least three pieces of osmanthus cake. Wang Lang, who was watching, forgot to tell them to shut up. When Wang Lang reacted, he only grabbed the last piece. Wang Lang has the heart to cry. But he could only say with a smile that was uglier than crying
"Brothers, leave this last piece to me. There was a thought. I just ate a piece. ”
Everyone looked at me, I looked at you, and they all smiled awkwardly. Who made the dim sum delicious, so Wang Lang put away the last piece of osmanthus cake in everyone's eager eyes. Wang Lang shook his head and wanted to forget this nightmare-like thing, and said to Zhang Zigen beside him
"Zigen, how long will it take for us to get to Jinling?"
Zhang Zi thought about it more and said
"Back to my lord, I should be able to enter the city by noon tomorrow. Half a day sooner than his subordinates expected. ”
Wang Lang nodded and said
"Zi Geng, arrange for everyone to keep vigil, and the rest of the people will rest early. Tomorrow we will try to enter the city before noon. ”
"Yes."
Early the next morning, Wang Lang and the others set off to Jinling in a hurry, because time waits for no one, and I don't know how many families have been killed in the past few days, Wang Lang does not dare to delay. Sure enough, at noon, Wang Lang and the others had already arrived outside Jinling City. Just when Wang Lang and the others were about to enter the city, the guards stopped them, Wang Lang frowned and said
"I wonder what's going on with this big brother?"
The city guard said with a serious expression and a proud expression
"Recently, many large families in the city have been killed, and the commander-in-chief has ordered that all those who enter the city with more than five people must be registered."
Zhang Zigen said on the side
"We just went out of the city a few days ago, why are we going to register today, what is the reason."
The city guard glanced at Zhang Zi with contempt and said
"Okay, it's okay if you don't register, no one pays three taels of silver. The same can be passed. ”
Zhang Zigen just wanted to step forward but didn't Wang Lang pull him back, Wang Lang Wang Lang said to Zhang Zigen with a smile
"Zigen, give the silver, and we will go into the city quickly."
Zhang Zi glared at the city guard, but he still obediently took out the silver ticket and handed it to the city guard, and the city guard counted the silver tickets and said with a smile
"That's right, everyone is angry and rich. You can go in. ”
Wang Lang and the others entered the city with a hula and cheer, Zhang Zi didn't understand why Wang Lang wanted to give the city guard silver, and Zhang Zi even thought that as long as there were two identities of their big inner secret agents, few people would dare to stop them. So he asked
"My lord, why should we give that guy money? As long as we show our identities, he will dare to stop him? ”
Wang Lang said with a smile
"Zi Geng, have you ever thought about why Your Majesty sent me a decree alone, instead of giving an order in the court?"
Zhang Zi shook his head, and Wang Lang said with a smile
"That's because His Majesty wants us to visit in secret to investigate the matter. Don't want to attract some people's attention, and what is our identity? ”
Zhang Zi didn't even think about it
"Ouchi's secret agent."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized and said with a smile
"My lord, I understand."
Wang Lang said
"Tell me?"
Zhang Zi said with a smile
"Ouchi's secret agent is His Majesty's secret agent, a secret investigation. Responsible only to His Majesty. ”
Wang Lang smiled and nodded without speaking, because Wang Lang knew that Zhang Zigen's group of people were all rangers, and they were used to being unscrupulous, and many habits that should not be on the secret agent had not been changed, and Wang Lang could only correct them slowly. Under the guidance of Zhang Zigen, everyone walked towards the residential area, but something happened on the way that made Wang Lang feel very bloody.
No, a group of housekeepers, led by a chubby butler, stopped a woman in a pale green jacket. The chubby butler was laughing and talking about something, but it was too far away, and there were people around, Wang Lang couldn't know what he was talking about, and he didn't hear what the chubby butler was saying until he squeezed into the crowd
"Medicine Fairy Gu, you can give the villain a trip. My son-in-law is really sick. Otherwise, why would the old slave come to invite you? ”
The woman named Medicine Fairy Gu glanced at the housekeeper coldly and said lightly
"Don't say that your son-in-law is sick, even if he is dead, don't think that I will step into the Governor's Palace. Get the hell out of here. ”
The housekeeper listened to Yao Xiangu's words, and immediately became angry. But it seems that he is afraid of something and can only endure it, but Lian Shang's smile is very reluctant
"Since Yao Xian Gu is unwilling to go, then don't blame the old slave for being unreasonable, come here, please ask Yao Xian Gu to sit in the house."
Suddenly, the two big men walked to the side of the medicine fairy and stretched out their hands to grab the arm of the medicine fairy girl, Wang Lang wanted to step forward to save the woman, but Wang Lang only felt a flash of silver light, and the hands of the two big men hung down unconsciously, and the housekeeper glared at the two big men and said
"What are you waiting for? Is it so difficult to please the Medicine Immortal? ”
At this time, the two big men were already flushed, and one of them said
"Butler, our arms don't listen to us."
The butler was taken aback. Heartway
"I always heard that Yao Xiangu is not only skilled in medicine, but also has a hand in acupuncture, which seems to be not a rumor."
The housekeeper knew that he would have to invite the medicine fairy Gu back today no matter what, otherwise the young master's temper would suddenly sweat profusely when he thought of this housekeeper. So he said to the family members around him
"Why don't you go and ask the medicine fairy to leave."
Ladies and gentlemen, you look at me, I look at you, and finally I stepped forward. Wang Lang knew that if he didn't make a move, what kind of medicine fairy Gu would estimate that there would be more than one bad luck. So he said to Zhang Zigen
"Save the woman."
Zhang Zi said with a smile
"Your Excellency, please. Brothers, come with me. ”
As he spoke, he squeezed through the crowd with ten people. Zhang Zi's more characteristic voice suddenly came out
"Brothers, call me."
Zhang Zi is also insidious enough, and he does it directly without saying a word. The butler hadn't had time to speak. I only heard the ping-pong inside for a while, and there was no movement, and the crowd automatically separated a lane for Zhang Zigen and others to come out, and then it closed automatically. It seems that he doesn't want the housekeeper's group to come out.
