Chapter 314: Ten Years Ago
Xu Bingzhou said lightly: "This matter still has to start from ten years ago. ”
When Xu Bingzhou finished saying this, I didn't expect that I would enter the plot mode, and I hadn't entered the plot mode for a long time, and I suddenly seemed a little uncomfortable. This sudden plot also made me know that I was about to face a big mission.
Although I am now nominally helping the old man of Tianji to restrict the reed sheng, the old man of Tianji has not given me any substantive task, that is to say, it is up to me to limit it or not. And after thinking about it, I think I can't be the enemy of Lu Sheng, anyway, it's not to complete any task, why should I help him do things, now I have figured it out, I plan to make a big fuss with Lu Sheng, although I haven't seen Lu Sheng yet, but I believe that sooner or later I will meet him, and now I have given me the plot, indicating that there is a big task waiting for me.
The thought of the task makes me excited, after all, I haven't received a big task for a long time.
In the plot, I was suddenly transported to ten years ago.
I know very well that thirteen years ago, between the Duke and the Imperial Court, because of the unpleasant quarrel between the Nine Heavens Glass Cup, eleven years ago, the Queen Mother married the singer of the Nine Masters' Mansion, or the beloved woman of the Ninth Master's youngest son, and the two completely became enemies. And this memory, ten years ago, at this time, the Ninth Master should be recruiting troops and establishing his own power, and this underground palace, I estimate that it was also completed around this time.
Sure enough, ten years ago, the Duke and the Ninth Master came to a place called Xu Mansion, and Xu Mansion is not a mansion in Luoyang City, it is far away in the Jiangnan region, where outstanding people are smart, skilled craftsmen are frequent, and the most famous is the skilled craftsman Xu Bingzhou in this Xu Mansion.
Ten years ago, the ninth master, about fifty years old, his figure has been a little fat, his belly is very big, at first glance he is a comfortable lord, generally this kind of person, will not do anything risky, and he, but he is not comfortable with the status quo, has an infinite pursuit of power, when he was young, he went to the battlefield, drank blood, the old emperor was his half-brother, his golden armor army made the domestic and foreign fears, the market legend, without the golden armor army, there would be no peace in this decade, this sentence is not groundless.
Such a person should have wanted anything, but the Queen Mother liked everything he liked, and he realized that if he didn't overthrow the current regime, he would never get what he liked.
The ninth master didn't take the royal sedan chair, and he didn't know where they came from or how they came, but they did arrive outside the Xu Mansion.
This time, the Ninth Master only brought two seemingly unsimple entourages.
Knocking on the door was naturally handled by his entourage.
"Knock, knock."
For business, when a customer comes to the door, he should open the door to greet him, but the door of this Xu Mansion can't be knocked open.
This is nothing more than two situations, one is that there is no one at home, and the other is that the family does not want to open the door.
Jiangnan and Luoyang, thousands of miles apart, at that time, it took a month to go on such a trip, as a duke, he must not be able to come quickly, naturally there is a yellow-topped sedan chair to serve all the way, he could have called someone to pass the word, but he still came in person, so, there must be something to say, need to be said in person, two people said.
Seeing that no one answered, how could the Ninth Master come here with such great effort, how could he return in vain, and the two entourages who followed the Duke here were also top masters, so he brought two entourages, which shows the trust of the Ninth Master in the two.
Is Old Man Xu at home? Of course, at home, as the world's first craftsman, he not only has superb kung fu, but his thinking is also one step ahead.
Old man Xu knows a lot of people, and they are all powerful people, because the organs he set up are not arranged in the homes of ordinary people, so Old Man Xu's news is still relatively smart. No, I don't know where the news came first, and there was a big man who wanted to see him.
The big people are also divided into three, six, nine and so on, and the person who came this time is above 10,000 people under one person, generally this kind of person wants to find him, the purpose is very clear, Old Man Xu can't afford to offend him, and he can't afford to offend the person above him.
Old man Xu chose to close the door and disappear, if he wanted to hide, no one would be able to find him, he had done so many tricks to lock the gods, who knew what was in his mansion.
Three representative items that can prove Old Man Xu's achievements, Huang Tianzhong, Jiuqu Chain Lock, and Baigang Battle Armor.
I have learned the power of Huang Tianzhong, and the remaining two are definitely not simple things, and the duke is here for only one purpose.
Build an underground arsenal to store the best equipment to strengthen his foundations in order to one day overthrow the lands above.
After all, the ninth duke is the ninth master, and he quickly thought of a way.
Old man Xu has three sons, all of whom are craftsmen, all of whom have started a family, although they are not half as good as their father's, but they are also one of the craftsmen, and on this day, his three sons all went out and did not come back.
It wasn't until the afternoon that Old Man Xu felt that something was wrong, and finally left Xu's mansion.
Outside the Xu Mansion, there were already two retinues in civilian clothes who had been waiting here for a long time, Old Man Xu followed the two entourages, and his three sons quickly returned to the Xu Mansion.
Jiu Ye knows that special methods are needed to treat special people, and Xu Bingzhou is definitely a special person.
The ninth master doesn't believe it, and there are people he can't invite, the emperor just fights with him, and there are still people in the market who don't take him seriously, absolutely not.
Xu Bingzhou saw the Ninth Master, and he knew that this person was the Duke Ninth Master above 10,000 people under one person, and the Golden Armor Army in his hand was an invincible existence in the battlefield and the biggest bargaining chip in the imperial court.
The Ninth Master got straight to the point and asked him to help build an underground arsenal.
Old man Xu didn't say a word and agreed.
Old man Xu knew that he couldn't hide, if he couldn't hear what the ninth master said, he could hide, but if he heard it, he couldn't hide.
The construction of the underground arsenal is tantamount to telling Xu Bingzhou the fact that he wants to rebel, Xu Bingzhou has dragged his family and his grandchildren, and he can't afford to offend this kind of force.
Such a big project, Xu Bingzhou alone will definitely not be able to, those craftsmen who have learned technology from him in the past few years, some are famous, some are not famous, there is no need for Xu Bingzhou to find it himself, the duke has sent someone to "invite" them all to the Duke's Palace, and Xu Bingzhou is the last to arrive. He took his three sons with him to the Duke's Palace.
This underground arsenal, a repair is ten years, starting from a hidden place on the outskirts of Luoyang, until it has been repaired to the mountains of the Royal Forest Mountain in the Imperial Garden, directly leading to the Inner Palace. The duke also built a palace on this outskirts.
When I went out, the palace I encountered was not actually the Duke's Mansion in the Ouchi Palace, but the Duke's Mansion in the suburbs, yes, there are two Duke's Palaces, and this underground arsenal is the Duke's Mansion built privately in the suburbs.
End of plot.
It turned out that things were not as complicated as imagined, Xu Bingzhou just chose to help the ninth master in order to save the name of the family, and this gang is ten years underground.
Xu Bingzhou said lightly: "The time is almost ripe." ”
I've been thinking about what exactly this sentence means, when the time comes?
Could it be?
After I went up before, the three men in black told me that the Golden Armor Army was gathering.
At this time, I suddenly heard the movement of a large army not far away, and the footsteps were as loud as thunder, and the location where we were was was not in the arsenal, it was a small space, as if it belonged to Xu Bingzhou's lounge alone.
Xu Bingzhou looked at the two of us meaningfully and said, "They have come to get ammunition and weapons, you guys should hide here, no matter what movement there is outside, don't come out." ”
Looking at the back of Old Man Xu in the distance, I suddenly had an ominous premonition.
