30. Left foot repeatedly. The right foot is clear
In the book Lu Ding Ji, Xu Tianchuan, who is responsible for contacting Wei Xiaobao, sells plasters under the overpass, and what kind of signboard is there "detoxification and vision restoration plaster", why is there no one now? Could it be that the conflict between him and the Bai Clan Shuangmu of Muwangfu has already happened?
If this is the case, Xu Tianchuan is seriously injured, and most likely he will not be returning to Tianqiao to sell plasters, so how can he get in touch with Aokitang?
Liu Meng had no other way for a while, so he had to go back to the inn first, and after a while, after getting up early the next morning, he found a sedan chair to go to the overpass, and waited for a morning, and did not see an old man who bent over and hunched over like a monkey.
On the third and fourth days, for four consecutive days, Liu Meng wandered near the overpass every day, hoping that Xu Tianchuan would only occasionally have something to do and would continue to come back to sell plasters; The second is to hope that the heaven and earth will change people to squat here, and they will be able to attract the attention of the other party by wandering back and forth like this.
But it backfired, and until the fifth day, it was still lively under the overpass, but no one paid attention to Liu Meng, who was strolling around.
I really couldn't hold it back, seeing that time was passing day by day, I guessed that Wei Xiaobao was now fighting wits with the fake queen mother in the palace, Liu Meng was even more impatient, and he was sick and went to the doctor, but he also thought of a way.
In the past, when he was in Yangzhou City, he asked the help of the Honghua Hall of the Heaven and Earth Society to find the remains of the predecessors of the sect, and he often contacted him in the teahouse, and Liu Meng remembered that he was very familiar with it, and he didn't know whether the code of the Heaven and Earth Society was universal, so he could try it.
At the moment at the overpass, I found the teahouse with the largest flow of my family, picked a more conspicuous table on the side of the window, took out the money and said to Dr. Tea that it would be for three days.
Liu Meng asked for two bowls, which were filled with tea, but he placed the lid upside down on the tea bowl, and there were chopsticks pressed on it. Such a strange way of placing is exactly the request of the Heaven and Earth Society taught by Wu Dapeng, as long as it is put out in Yangzhou, someone will come up to talk after a while, but I don't know if Aokitang is the same here.
Ready to connect the code, Liu Meng sat in the teahouse while listening to the storytelling, while paying attention to the people around him. It's just that at the end of the day, the tea was full, but no one came to talk to the joint, so that Liu Meng was suspicious, thinking that Honghuatang was not applicable in Yanjing City.
The next time, after eating breakfast, Liu Meng came to this teahouse again, sat down at the booked table, asked for a pot of tea, and still put out a joint code, ready to continue to sit and wait.
Time flies very quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it is noon lunchtime, there are the most guests in the teahouse, and many tables are full of people, only Liu Meng's one is still empty because it is packed. After listening to the legend of heroes for a while, Liu Meng felt that his stomach was empty, and he was just about to get up and find a restaurant to ask for two side dishes to drink, when suddenly there was a darkness around him, and someone said: "Borrow light!" He sat down at the table.
This table has already been booked by itself, why is there still someone to sit there? Liu Meng frowned and turned his face to look, and saw that this person was in his thirties, with a square face and thick black eyebrows, and he looked heroic, like a person who practiced martial arts.
The man reached out and picked up the chopsticks on a tea bowl, dipped the tip of the chopsticks in the tea, ordered three points on the table, and said, "Your Excellency, this tea is to detoxify?" ”
Well? There's a play! Liu Meng's heart moved, and he hurriedly replied: "It is the best tea that removes poison and restores sight." Then the man asked, "What is the name of the tea?" Liu Meng replied: "People call it 'Go to Qing Restoration Tea'!" ”
The man nodded and said in a low voice, "Can you take a step to speak?" Waiting for Liu Meng to nod, he immediately stood up, walked out of the teahouse and turned three times and two times, and arrived in a narrow and silent alley, stopped his footsteps, and said to Liu Meng who followed behind: "The earth is reverberating and the mountains are beautiful. ”
The incision of the Heaven and Earth Society? Looks like it's finally getting started! Liu Meng was very excited in his heart, and replied according to his voice: "The door faces the sea, and the Sanhe River flows for ten thousand years." ”
The man nodded, clenched his fists and said, "Which hall does Your Excellency live in by the Red Flower Pavilion?" This is to ask which hall Liu Meng is from, and the next thing is to ask "how many pillars of incense are burned in the hall" and ask about the position. Liu Meng had read all these things in the book, and when he was in Yangzhou, Wu Dapeng also mentioned them roughly. Therefore, Liu Meng is still very decent to deal with.
"Brother is Honghuatang. Light an incense candle in front of the church. ”
If it is a person in the Heaven and Earth Society, the latter sentence should be answered according to the position of the person who burns a few pillars of incense in front of the hall. But Liu Meng is not a member of the Heaven and Earth Society, he just had an incense fate with Honghuatang, and he can be regarded as a good friend at most, so he has to answer 'light incense candles'.
The man heard that Liu Meng was not a brother in the meeting, so he couldn't help but be much more cautious, and the fox asked, "What do you call it?" Liu Meng understood what the other party meant, the Heaven and Earth Society was an anti-Qing organization, and it was in the capital of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and he was afraid that he would have been arrested if he was not careful. At the moment, he said: "Liu Bumeng, who came from Xiayangzhou, has a friendship with Master Li Xiang of Honghuatang and Wu Dapeng Wu Old Man of your association, and has also helped your association, and this set of incisions was also learned from Old Man Wu." ”
Honghua Hall is the upper five halls in the Heaven and Earth Society, of course this person has heard of the name of the incense master Li Shijin, "Moyun Hand" Wu Dapeng is quite famous in the southern rivers and lakes, and he is the elder of the Honghua Hall, this person thought for a while and remembered himself. I was still not very reassured, and I asked a few more questions before I put away my doubts.
Liu Meng saw that the other party believed in himself, so he said frankly: "There are two good friends in Xia, one is called Mao Eighteen, and the other is called Wei Xiaobao, who came to Yanjing City from Yangzhou respectively, and it has been more than half a year. ”
The person who came here heard that he was looking for Mao Shibai and Wei Xiaobao, his eyes shrank suddenly, but the expression on his face did not change at all, obviously he had a very deep effort to hide his scheming. After looking at Liu Meng for a while, he said: "Brother, I will inquire for you when I go back, if there is any news, I will see you in the old place in the teahouse later." ”
After saying this, this person hugged his fists slightly, and without waiting for Liu Meng to express his gratitude, he turned around and left, the speed was extremely fast, and after getting out of the alley, he circled in the crowd a few times, and then disappeared.
Wei Xiaobao is now obviously the incense master of Aoki Hall, but this person refuses to confide in a word, and also calls himself to wait for news in the teahouse the day after tomorrow, so he is really cautious, no wonder Heaven and Earth will be the first force in the rivers and lakes to be eliminated by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but he can still flourish.
After Liu Meng waited for this person to leave, he didn't stay long, came out to find a sedan chair, and asked him to send him to Tianshuijing Hutong. I found a very famous tavern there, ordered a red stewed deer tendon, two plates of dried fried edamame and slippery liver tips, and asked for a pot of old white dry, and drank slowly until it was dark, and then settled the account, and came out and walked slowly back to the inn.
Sitting in the tavern for an afternoon, it was just to guard against someone's watching, although he entered Beijing alone, except for Tan Legmen, no one knew his identity, but there was no big mistake in being careful, the situation of the struggle against the enemy was grim!
