Datang Demon Sealing Record: True Demon Tribulation

014, Lu Donglai's secret

Hearing the words of the eight-faced God of Wealth, Lu Donglai smiled dumbly and obediently stretched out his hand.

"Hehe, I didn't expect you to find out so much. ”

At the same time that Lu Donglai was arrested, a raging fire broke out in Lu's house, and some family members closed the gate from the courtyard, and it took a lot of effort for everyone to open the gate to put out the fire.

When they rushed in, the buildings that were the first to catch fire were already burned to ashes.

Lu Donglai did not resist, but he neither directly admitted that he was the God of Wealth, nor did he explicitly deny it.

In the days that followed, he was also silent.

Xian Yuyan and the others knew very well in their hearts that for such a person, it was useless to torture, so they could only attack their hearts.

But when I thought of Lu Jinshan's death and the scene when Lu Dong came to his homeland, I felt that this person really had no weaknesses at all.

The small half of the Lu Mansion has been burned to ashes, and it can be determined by looking at the burning of the flames, and the fire oil was arranged in advance.

There was no dirty evidence left, and even nearly 20,000 taels of gold and 100,000 taels of silver in the treasure building were burned and melted. The rest of the gold and silver nuggets are also bare, without half a stamp.

It can be proved that he is the god of wealth, thanks to those letters found in Luoyang.

There were a few little eunuchs who witnessed An Qingxu killing An Lushan, and they had long been fed up with the cruelty and abuse of their father and son, and when they heard the news of the siege, they hid in a fake cave.

In order to survive, these people had already secretly stolen some letters and documents from the An Lushan period.

An Qingxu killed his father and seized the emperor, and some of the people who An Lushan secretly colluded with were not delivered in time, and many documents and tokens were also discarded. These were also collected by eunuchs and palace maids who had the intention of defecting.

There are also many things that were salvaged in the fire, and many of them are still of great use.

Their plans are also shrewd, even if those palace maids are in exile among the people, they can always have a way to live, but eunuchs who are eunuchs are different, and getting forgiveness from the court is almost their only way to live.

Among the documents they contributed, there were several letters written by Lu Donglai to An Lushan.

In other people's letters to An Lushan, Lü Donglai's name is also mentioned and he is called the God of Wealth, or the God of Wealth with Eight Faces.

Guo Hua and the others immediately thought of the God of Wealth of the Crow Group, who ranked ninth among the crows and was said to have the financial resources of a country that rivaled the wealth.

It's just that no one has ever seen him for what he really is, and the ravens say that he is a Sogdian.

Rich and rival the country, the appearance of the Hu people, proficient in more than a dozen languages, there are only a handful of people in Chang'an City who meet the characteristics of the "God of Wealth", and several investigations have also been eliminated one by one.

At one point, the court suspected that he had already left Chang'an and returned to the Western Regions, or further to the West.

People never thought that Lu Donglai was the God of Wealth.

He was white-faced, handsome, and slender, not at all like the Sogdians, who had a tiger's back and a beard.

Now that we look closely, Lu Donglai does have the shadow of a Sogdian, but he is not like a Sogdian man, but like a Sogdian woman.

He refused to say anything, and Guo Hua and others could only speculate that his mother was a Sogdian and his father was Han.

The crown prince Li Yu was ordered to investigate the case of Lu Donglai, and the imperial power came to the sky in the sea, and within half a day, all the shops of Lu Donglai in Chang'an were sealed, and an official document was sent to notify all provinces and states to seal up and confiscate the property involved in Lu Donglai.

After several days of clearing and verifying, it was found that there was a loophole of 35,000 taels of gold.

And this gold disappeared out of thin air in Chang'an.

Thirty-five thousand taels of gold is a maddening amount even for the current imperial court.

This deficit figure should have been generated in the last two months.

It is likely that the gold has been stashed or shipped somewhere else.

exchanging fake gold for silver and copper coins, and then exchanging them for real gold to hide or transport away, this is undoubtedly hollowing out Datang financially.

If this batch of gold was transported to the rebels, it would be enough to support An Qingxu's comeback and bring another fatal blow to Datang.

The whereabouts of this gold must be found as soon as possible.

Even Huiguo can't help it.

"Didn't Senior Brother help Du Huan open the knot in his heart in the first place? Cast a spell to make him honestly spit out all the things he remembered?" asked Guo Hua.

"Du Huan is trapped by love, and his heart is also looking for a way out, I just need a little guidance, Lu Donglai is different, he has a strong mind, his heart is not open, and the poor monk is helpless. Hui Guo smiled indifferently, and his mana was better than before.

"Senior brother said that there is nothing to do, that is really helpless. Guo Hua cried with a sad face.

"All cause and effect have their own time, and there is no waiting, and there is no urgency. ”

Hui Guo left an ambiguous sentence and drove Guo Yu out.

Just when Huiguo left Qinglong Temple and rushed back to Zuojinwu Health Office, he met Gao Lishi's car on the road.

It's just that the car is not General Gao Lishi, but Gao Xianzhi.

Xian Yuyan reported the matter of Lu Donglai, the eight-faced god of wealth, to Gao Lishi, and of course, Gao Xianzhi was still alive.

Gao Lishi had long suspected that Gao Xianzhi was still alive, and after knowing that Lu Donglai would not spit out a word for several days, he personally came forward to invite Gao Xianzhi to come.

"There has to be an understanding of things. Gao Lishi said to Gao Xianzhi.

"Why don't you take the initiative to go to him? The crow's man is almost dead. ”

What Gao Xianzhi said about him did not mean the God of Wealth, which Gao Lishi also knew very well.

"The old emperor wants him to stand up for himself," Gao Lishi sighed, "do you think he will come by himself?"

"His mind is elusive, but depending on his reaction, he must first defeat the eight-sided God of Wealth. ”

"You haven't met the God of Wealth before?" asked Colliers.

"No, the eight-faced God of Wealth also likes to engage in behind-the-scenes manipulation, except for the old fox himself, there should be no one else among the crows who have seen his true face. ”

"Then it will be bothering the general to put some effort into it, but," Gao Lishi smiled embarrassedly, "it's just what the old man promised you, I'm afraid-"

"Ah Weng is too worried, after this matter is over, I will take Wan An out of Chang'an to a place where no one can find us, and you must take care of yourself. ”

Colliers sent off the guests with a smile. There are still a lot of people in Chang'an who know Gao Xianzhi, so they lend him his car, and there is a cover on the road.

"Are you really not dead?" When Gao Xianzhi appeared in front of Lu Donglai, a shocked expression appeared on Lu Donglai's face for the first time.

"I didn't expect that the low-key and mysterious God of Wealth would be you. "There is a small official who has moved a Mazha for Gao Xianzhi. He sat down and looked at Lu Donglai's face carefully.

"You can come here, can it be understood that you killed all those people?" Lu Donglai looked at Gao Xianzhi puzzled.

"He's still here. ”

"You've seen him?"

"No, since he likes to pretend to be an idle cloud and wild crane hidden in the city, let him entertain himself more time. Gao Xianzhi's fingers tapped lightly on his knees, and the rhythm was soothing.

"Do you know what he wants to do?" asked Lu Donglai.

"I don't know, he doesn't look like a man who wants to be an emperor. ”

"It's really confused, it's really confused, how many people don't understand his mind at all, but they are willing to run for him for half their lives. Lu Donglai raised his head, only a small window saw a beam of light through, which could not bring much light to this dark and damp dungeon.

He didn't look at the window of the light, but at the dark corners.

There must have been a wall there, but that wall had been swallowed up by darkness, as if it didn't exist, a black hole, as if it led to a far place.

"Perhaps, the old guy just ignited a little flame deep in our hearts, and let us burn it in spite of everything. Gao Xianzhi smiled.

Although it was dim, Lu Donglai could still see the calm smile on Gao Xianzhi's face.

"You say that, it's really like his style, little flame, hahahaha, I'm afraid there's still darkness, greed, these messy things. ”

"Can you talk about it now?" Gao Xianzhi asked, seizing the opportunity.

"He doesn't have anything to say, but you, Gao-Xian-Zhi——," Someone suddenly broke in, calling Gao Xianzhi's name word by word, "You still have the face to live in this world?"

The person who broke in was none other than Xue Yiliu.

It's not that Jin Wuwei has a loose access control, it was Xian Yuyan who deliberately let her in, maybe her appearance can make Lu Donglai reveal more things.

Gao Xianzhi didn't know who came, but he looked like he had seen it somewhere.

"Miss Xue, why are you here?" asked Lu Donglai with concern.

"I was told that Gao Xianzhi was still alive and right here, so I came over. Xue Yiliu's eyes were bloodshot, and his whole body was releasing huge hatred.

"You-" Lu Dong looked at Gao Xianzhi.

"You, are you from Shiguo?" Gao Xianzhi could see clearly, although Xue Yiliu tried his best to cover his original facial features with rouge and lead powder, his three-dimensional face was still full of exotic women's style.

"You still remember that there was a place called Shi Guo in this world, and I am the daughter of the left minister of Shi Guozuo, but I know that it is useless to say this, how could General Gao put the daughter of a captive in his eyes. ”

When Gao Xianzhi was in the Western Regions, he destroyed the Shi Kingdom, Tuqi Shi, etc., "broke the Hu of the Nine Kingdoms", shocked the Western Regions, and made the seventy-two Western countries of all sizes attached to the Tang Dynasty.

Gao Xianzhi was speechless, slightly guilty.

"What? General Gao has nothing to say? Is it that under General Gao's iron hooves, he can't take care of those creatures who have fallen in the dust?" Xue Yiliu asked.

"I did what happened back then, Gao really has nothing to say, but if Miss Xue wants to understand the truth of that year, I'm afraid she has to ask this Mr. Lu. ”

After Lu Donglai heard that Xue Yiliu was from Shiguo, his face had become very ugly, and now hearing Gao Xianzhi say this, he was even more sad.

"The truth? hehe, aren't you so happy to kill my people and destroy my homeland?" Xue Yiliu's lip bit and oozing blood.

Gao Xianzhi looked at Lu Donglai, and even Xue Yiliu noticed that Lu Donglai's expression was different, and he became nervous.

Is this man I love so much also the murderer of the clan back then?
