Chapter 45: The Enemy Meets
Lei Wanchun is really a bit backbone. After speaking, he put on his clothes, called Chen Chong in with a wave of his hand, and whispered in his ear for a while. As soon as Chen Chong turned around, he ran to the Guandi Temple. There was not much time, Chen Chong ran back again, handed ten taels of silver to Lei Wanchun's hand, Lei Wanchun turned around and handed it to Ling Feng: "I said little brother, these ten taels of silver are given to you by me, you can take the cost of writing." I threw in the towel! ”
Ling Feng took the silver, looking at Lei Wanchun like that, he felt a little unbearable, and just wanted to say something.
Lei Wanchun waved his hand and said, "Don't say anything." My iron-backed turtle Lei Wanchun is also the number one, and I have been in this Leijia Town for more than ten years. Now that I'm leaving, remember this day and now! As long as I still have three inches of qi, I have to avenge this revenge! ”
After that, Lei Wanchun left Leijia Town with his apprentice.
Ling Feng returned to the restaurant, handed over the ten taels of silver ingots to the old shopkeeper of the restaurant, and said, "Shopkeeper Li, pay the preface, this is your meal money." Please help me exchange the rest into loose silver taels, and I still have to hurry. ”
Shopkeeper Li had heard everything that happened in front of Emperor Guan's temple at this time, so he worshipped Ling Feng as a god, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "It's not enough to have a small amount of money, besides, I just said no." "Anyway, I pushed it again and again. In the end, under Ling Feng's insistence, he reluctantly accepted it.
Ling Feng paid for the meal, but he was not worried. After asking Shopkeeper Li for directions, he left Leijia Town and went straight to Shuntian Mansion. Hungry and thirsty along the way, Xiaoxing stayed overnight, and on this day, he finally came to the capital of the Qing Dynasty at that time - Shuntianfu.
After entering the Shuntian Mansion, Ling Feng saw that it was at the feet of the Son of Heaven. The towering city tower, the tall palace, the south pavilion and the north courtyard, set up the five city soldiers and horses, and the Shuntian mansion. The streets are also very strict, and special attention is paid to idle people, and from time to time there are soldiers passing by with weapons. Seeing this situation, Ling Feng was also a little weak-hearted, after all, the purpose of his trip was to assassinate the important officials of the government.
At this time, the weather in the north had entered a cold winter, and the silver taels on Ling Feng's body also cost seventy-seven eighty-eight. After entering the city, Ling Feng first found a ready-to-wear shop and bought a set of winter clothes, although he was not afraid of the cold, but the clothes on his body were already dirty, and it was easy to attract attention when wearing a single dress in this cold winter season. However, Ling Feng did not change the night clothes given by the empty one.
Out of the garment shop, there was not much silver left on Ling Feng's body. He simply found a restaurant, exchanged all the money on his body for food, and had a big meal. Anyway, tonight, when the stabs are full of expensive, you can also take some of the money looted by this stolen official.
After he was full of wine and food, Ling Feng asked the guys in the restaurant about the location of the Nine Gates' Admiral's Yamen. For the sake of insurance, he also deliberately stepped on the stepping point to confirm that Man Gui and Zhang Tingzhi were not there. Coincidentally, when Ling Feng came to the door of the Nine Gate Admiral's Yamen, he met Zhang Tingzhi coming out of it. Ling Feng was afraid of being recognized by him, so he quickly lowered his head. But Zhang Tingzhi didn't pay attention to him, and hurriedly brushed past him.
When the two rubbed shoulders, Ling Feng really wanted to solve this bad ghost master who had deceived him into favoring him with one palm. But this seems to be too cheap for him, and he is not happy enough. In addition, there are heavy troops stationed in the Yamen of the Nine Gates, and it is also a problem to get out in broad daylight. Ling Fengxin said: Let you live for a few more hours, and come back to get your dog's head at night. Thinking of the scene of Man Gui and Zhang Tingzhi kneeling down in front of him, silent and kowtowing, Ling Feng felt a burst of excitement flow through his body.
Finally survived until dark, the lights were on, and the streets of Shuntianfu were still a prosperous scene. After another hour of waiting, the flow of people gradually receded, the road was quiet, all the shops were closed, and the army patrolling the city began to walk back and forth in the streets. Ling Feng was dressed in night clothes, jumped through the room, and came to the back house of the Nine Gates Admiral's Mansion.
He searched all over the back house, but he didn't find Mangui, so he knew that Mangui hadn't come back yet. So he jumped to a big tree in the courtyard. The tree he chose just overlooked the panoramic view of the house, and it was just right to wait for the rabbit. Ling Fengxin said: If you run away from the monk, you can't run away from the temple. I don't believe you're coming back.
After about half an hour, Ling Feng and the others were a little impatient.
Suddenly, a sound of footsteps came from the door, and Ling Fengxin said: Here it is! Immediately after, four people walked in. Ling Feng saw that Man Gui and Zhang Tingzhi were among them. It's really an enemy meeting, and it's very red-eyed. Ling Feng slowly pulled out the "blood droplets" on his waist and wrapped the silk thread around his hand. But looking at the other two, one of them was a middle-aged man in his thirties, tall, thin and straight, wearing a cyan gown, walking among the four, which naturally made people perceive from his demeanor and bearing that he was the leader with the highest status. The other person was a lama dressed in red, and his face was solemn.
Ling Feng didn't look at it, as soon as he saw this red-clothed lama, his heart beat faster, and his heart screamed badly. This person is none other than the Heavenly Absolute Monk.
The Heavenly Peerless Monk suddenly looked up at the big tree where Ling Feng was hiding. Ling Feng knew that his heartbeat suddenly accelerated and caused the Heavenly Absolute Monk to induce, so he hurriedly collected his mind, slowed down his heartbeat, held his breath, and closed his eyes. Cutting off everything can make masters like the Heavenly Absolute Monk give birth to the vitality of induction, hoping to get through the trick. What surprised Ling Feng the most was that the man in Tsing Yi also looked over here, and he was only one line slower than the Heavenly Absolute Monk in terms of time. It turns out that this is also a hidden master.
Ling Feng knew that tonight's assassination plan had failed because of the arrival of the Heavenly Absolute Monk and this man in Tsing Yi. He waited for a while, and when he saw the four of them enter the room, he hurriedly lifted his breath and fell lightly to a nearby tree first. After waiting for a while, I saw that the Heavenly Absolute Monk was still in the room, and he did not find it. If you don't leave now, when will you stay! Ling Feng forcibly suppressed his curiosity to listen to their conversation, he didn't dare to go to the roof, he only slowly swept from tree to tree, and finally landed on a big tree at the door. He turned over, jumped over the courtyard wall, and landed silently outside the gate of the mansion, running all the way along the main road.
Ling Feng ran into an alley in a panic, and was shocked, at this time, there were snowflakes floating in the sky. He is now penniless and unable to invest in the store, but he can't sleep on the streets on this snowy night. What to do?
Ling Feng looked around and saw that there was a gate tower not far in front of him, no need to ask, this must be the residence of dignitaries. Ling Feng thought to himself: This place can be sheltered from the wind and snow, so let's just get together here for the night, and wait for tomorrow to think of other ways.
