Chapter 299: Shocked

Just when Ling Zhennan and Ling Muyun father and son were discussing in the guest room, in Wang Yuanba's study in the backyard of the Wang family's mansion, the three of the Wang family's father and son were also talking about the same thing.

"Bofen, you are too anxious, Ling Zhennan's kid will inevitably have doubts in his heart after listening to your words today, if he really lets him know that there is still our hand behind the events of the year, he will not have to turn his face with us? If that's the case, it will be difficult for us to try against his Ling family's evil sword technique! Wang Yuanba, who was sitting behind the bookcase, glanced at his eldest son and said in a deep voice.

"Yes, what you taught me is that I also saw Ling Zhennan's words, and I was in a hurry for a while, so I said the wrong thing, and I won't do it in the future."

"Hmm." Wang Yuanba nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Bofen, Zhong Qiang, you have to be careful when you talk and do things, don't show any flaws in front of Ling Zhennan, this brother-in-law of yours is not a simple character!" ”

"Got it, Dad." Wang Bofen and Wang Zhongqiang brothers bowed together.

Wang Zhongqiang said: "Dad, do you think what Ling Zhennan said is true? Yu Cangshan of the Qingcheng faction was really repelled by their family's half-dead old butler Ling Fang? But didn't the Songshan faction say that Ling Fang had been abolished by their head Zuo Guchan, and it was impossible to heal again? ”

"Stupid!"

Wang Yuanba glared at his second son, and said angrily: "You believe whatever the Songshan faction says?" What do you think the Songshan faction is a good thing, they and us are just using each other, and you still expect them to tell you the truth? If they were so sure that Ling Fang was abolished, why hadn't they done anything to the Ling family all these years. Instead, he hooked up with us and instigated us to seek evil sword techniques? ”

"Dad, do you mean that the Songshan faction is actually not sure if Ling Fang has been abolished, is it using us as cannon fodder?" Wang Bofen's face changed, and he asked in surprise.

Wang Yuan said domineeringly: "Cannon fodder is not enough, even if we really have a complete face-to-face with the Ling family, they may not be able to eat our Wang family." However, it is true that the Songshan faction did not have good intentions, they wanted our Wang family to be their pawns to explore the way. ”

"Then aren't they afraid that we will get it first, and they won't get anything?"

"What are they afraid of?" Wang Yuanba sneered and said, "Luo and Deng are both the spheres of influence of their Songshan faction. Although our Wang family has some status in Luozhou Wulin. But in the eyes of their powerful Songshan faction, what is it? As long as our Wang family still wants to gain a foothold in Luozhou, it is not that we want to be round, and we want to be flat. Whatever? If the evil sword spectrum is in our hands. It's much easier than taking it from the Ling family. ”

Wang Zhongqiang suddenly realized: "No wonder your father didn't let us go to the Ling family again all these years." It turns out that I don't want to be used by the Songshan faction! ”

"This is just one of the aspects, we and the Songshan faction are originally in a relationship of mutual use, and they are using us. Aren't we using them? ”

Wang Yuanba smiled coldly, and then said: "I just felt unsure before, and Ling Zhennan's kid also seems to be on guard against us, once we are discovered, the two sides will turn their faces, if the ghost sword Ling Fang is not abolished, we are afraid that we are not opponents, so we will stop for the time being." ”

"It's all my fault, little sister, if she doesn't turn her elbow out and is willing to help us, with Ling Zhennan's trust in her, what can't she steal from the Ling family? I'm afraid that the sword spectrum of warding off evil has already arrived in our hands, where is the need for such painstaking effort? Wang Bofen suddenly said hatefully.

Hearing Wang Bofen say this, Wang Yuanba's face suddenly became gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: "Don't talk to her in front of me, that rebellious girl, an extroverted thing, I didn't worry about pulling her up in vain, but I didn't expect to help people with foreign surnames to guard against her father in the end, and my conscience was called a dog to eat!" ”

Seeing that Wang Yuanba was angry, the brothers Wang Bofen and Wang Zhongqiang were suddenly silent, and they lowered their heads for a while and didn't dare to speak.

Wang Yuanba has absolute authority in the Wang family, don't look at Wang Bofen and Wang Zhongqiang, the brothers are now middle-aged, and they are also famous in the rivers and lakes, especially in Luozhou Wulin, but in front of Wang Yuanba, they are still as well-behaved as a kitten.

The oppressive silence lasted for a long time, and Wang Yuanba finally snorted and spoke again: "Bofen, Zhongqiang, after you go back, tell Jiajun, Jiaju and Xiuling, let them stop fooling around these days, accompany my good grandson around, play, find an opportunity to test him, and see if you can get something out of his mouth." A milky little child is much easier to deal with than his cautious and slippery father. ”

"Do as my father commands." Wang Bofen and Wang Zhongqiang are busy.

"The two of you are also carefully dealing with Ling Zhennan, looking for a chance to have a good talk with Yue'e's unfilial daughter, don't forget, it's not as simple as our Wang family wants to ward off evil swords, and the above also attaches great importance to this matter, and even Chief Yang has personally inquired about it, if we can't get the evil sword spectrum, what will be the consequences I don't need to say, you all know it yourself!"

The faces of the brothers Wang Bofen and Wang Zhongqiang changed in unison, as if they had thought of something terrifying, and a trace of fear flashed in their eyes. nodded heavily: "Dad, don't worry, we know what to do." ”

"It's good to know, let's all go out, I'll wait to see what you do." Wang Yuanba waved his hand at his two sons.

"Yes, Dad." The two brothers saluted Wang Yuanba again, and then turned around and walked out of the study.

After the two sons left, Wang Yuanba reached out and took out a silver token carved with a fluttering tiger from his arms, looked at it in his hand for a moment, and then sighed and put it into his arms again.

……

Early the next morning, Ling Muyun got up, just folded the bedding, and was about to go out to wash, when he suddenly heard someone in the courtyard shouting, "Is Cousin Muyun up?" ”

Ling Muyun pushed open the door and looked out, only to see two men and a woman coming to the courtyard, and the two young men in brocade robes were the two cheap cousins of his uncle's family, Wang Jiajun and Wang Jiaju. Next to the two of them, stood a girl in a goose-yellow dress. It was Wang Xiuling, the cheap cousin of his second uncle's family.

As soon as Ling Muyun opened the door and came out, the eyes of the two men and one woman lit up, and Wang Jiajun walked over with a smile: "Cousin Muyun, you are all coming to Luoyang for the first time, we want to take you out for a walk, visit the fun places in Luoyang County, and appreciate the customs of our Luoyang County, do you think it?" ”

Ling Muyun said: "Thank you cousin for your kindness, it's just that we haven't washed and eaten yet." ”

"It doesn't matter." Wang Jiaju next to him waved his hand and smiled, and said, "Cousin, if you are willing to go." Just wash up. As for breakfast, we can go to the street to eat, there are a few restaurants in Luoyang County that have good food, just take your cousin to taste it. ”

"Yun'er. Anyway, there's nothing in this house that we need your help with. You and Rong'er are both coming to Luoyang for the first time. Since your cousin has come to play with you, then you can go. At this time, I saw the door of the bedroom where Ling Zhennan and Wang Yue'e were open, and Wang Yue'e walked out of it. Said to Ling Muyun.

Seeing that her mother said so, Ling Muyun nodded, turned her head and said to Wang Jiajun and the others: "Okay, cousin, cousin, you can go back, I'll go talk to Rong'er and them, and I'll go to you when we finish washing." ”

"Okay, then let's go to the front hall and wait for you, cousin, you have to hurry."

Wang Jiajun nodded, and then left the courtyard with Wang Jiajun and Wang Xiuling.

After washing, Ling Muyun came to the front hall with Huang Rong, Shuang'er and Mei Ruohua, and joined Wang Jiajun and the others who had been waiting there for a while, and then left the Wang family's mansion together and went to the market in Luoyang County.

Because they didn't eat breakfast, they first found a restaurant and had a simple breakfast, and then under the guidance of Wang Jiajun's brothers and sisters, they toured Luoyang County.

Luoyang County, as the capital of Luozhou, is located in the north-central part of the Great Xia Dynasty, on the verge of the Jiuqu River, which is the place where Zhongzhou Cao Yun must pass, the key point of transportation, and is an important town in the north. Although it is only morning, there is an endless stream of people coming and going on the market, the buildings on both sides are lined up one after another, the shops on the street are next to each other, and the goods are dazzling, which is much more prosperous than Jinghai County, where the Ling family is located, and there are many scenic spots, Huang Rong and others are also quite interested.

Women seem to have a natural passion for shopping, ancient and modern, although Huang Rong and others are all strange women, but in this regard is no exception. After everyone walked for a long time, Huang Rong and the others bought a lot of things, including especially wear, jewelry and the like.

However, after some shopping, Ling Muyun was quite unhappy. Originally, it was nothing for Huang Rong and others to buy some jewelry and other things, after all, Ling Muyun was also from a wealthy family, and there was no shortage of money on him, so Huang Rong and others would not feel distressed if they bought something.

But what made Ling Muyun a little annoyed when he arrived was that his two cheap cousins really didn't know how many catties and taels they had, and when they saw what Huang Rong and the other women were interested in, they rushed to pay, and they were supposed to be guests from afar, and they should be the host's hospitality, and they should also give some gifts.

It's just that they did it, but it made Huang Rong and others quite embarrassed, after all, at this time, it is not as good as the later generations, the daughter's family is still very shy and self-loving, not everyone accepts gifts, generally speaking, they will only accept gifts from family members or lovers, who are the Wang brothers? Why give them something? And are they the pieces of wear and jewelry that often represent special meanings?

And Ling Muyun was secretly angry, what do Wang Jiajun and Wang Jiaju mean? Pry his woman in front of him? And did you take him into account? If it weren't for the kinship between each other, if he felt that turning his face now would make it a little difficult for his father and mother, Ling Muyun would have pulled a big ear bracket a long time ago.

Later, Huang Rong saw that the Wang brothers were really not talking, so she choked a few words on them, and the Wang brothers were considered to have reined in, and they also avoided that Ling Muyun's anger, which was already on the verge of eruption, was not detonated.

It's just that in this way, it has also made Huang Rong and others much less interested. It's just that even so, unconsciously, Ling Muyun and the others have already visited most of the most prosperous markets in Luoyang County.

Seeing that Huang Rong and the others lacked interest, Wang Xiuling rolled her eyes and said, "Big brother, second brother, cousin, Sister Huang, you see it's not early in the morning, after shopping for so long, everyone is probably a little hungry, why don't we find a place to have lunch first?" ”

Ling Muyun and the others looked up, only to see that the sun had unconsciously risen to the middle of the sky. It was already noon, so they all nodded and agreed.

"It just so happens that I know that there is a restaurant called Songhelou nearby, and the food is quite good, why don't we go there and eat?" Wang Jiaju suggested with a timely smile.

"Yes, yes, that restaurant is good, and Jiaju is thoughtful."

"Second brother, this is a good idea, I like to eat the food of that Songhe Tower on weekdays, and I don't go for a few days, I'm a little greedy."

Wang Jiaju spoke. Wang Jiajun and Wang Xiuling agreed one after another. It felt as if it had been rehearsed in advance, and the eyes of the three of them couldn't help but sweep towards each other as they spoke, and when they touched their eyes, a trace of inexplicability flashed in their eyes.

Seeing this scene, Ling Muyun's heart couldn't help but move. It seems that these cheap cousins and cousins of his have something to hide from him.

Meanwhile. Huang Rong's voice suddenly came into his ears: "Brother Yun." Why don't I think something is right? How did they seem to have agreed in advance? ”

Ling Muyun turned his head to look, only to see Huang Rong's lips moving slightly, it turned out that he was talking to him by the method of transmitting sound into the secret. Obviously, Wang Jiajun and others' acting skills are really not very good, not only him, but even Huang Rong also noticed the strangeness.

Ling Muyun glanced at Wang Jiajun and the others lightly, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, revealing a sneering smile, and nodded at Huang Rong, signaling that he would ignore it and just wait and see.

After singing and harmonizing, Wang Xiuling turned her head to Ling Muyun and the others and asked with a smile, "Cousin Muyun, Sister Huang, do you say it's okay?" ”

Ling Muyun and Huang Rong glanced at each other, and then nodded: "Okay, I also want to taste what kind of delicacy the food made by the Songhe Tower is, and it can be praised by my cousin and cousin in unison." ”

Ling Muyun and Huang Rong had already agreed, and Shuang'er and Mei Ruohua naturally had no opinion, and immediately everyone walked towards the Songhe Tower under the guidance of the Wang brothers and sisters.

After walking a short distance, I turned a street and suddenly saw a group of people gathered around the corner, as if they were looking at something. Huang Rong couldn't help but sigh lightly, and asked Ling Muyun in a low voice, "Brother Yun, what do you see going on over there?" ”

"Rong'er, you wait here first, I'll take a look."

Ling Muyun knew that Huang Rong was curious again, so he smiled at her, and then stepped forward, squeezed into the crowd and took a look, it turned out that there was a list posted on the wall, which said that a reward was offered to arrest Jiang Yang's thief and asked the sky.

It is said that those who help the government capture the thief or kill the thief will receive a reward of 500,000 taels of silver, and those who provide clues to the government to help the government arrest the thief will receive a reward of 50,000 taels of silver.

There were literate people in the crowd who read this list, and many onlookers talked about it, and some people speculated that Xiang Tian had committed some major crime, and even asked the government to offer a reward of so much silver for his arrest.

Some people talk about saying that since this Xiang Tianwen is a Jiangyang thief who can make the government reward him with a lot of money, it must be extremely vicious and very powerful, and it is no longer necessary to think about it if he catches and kills him by himself, it is best to know the whereabouts of this Xiang Tianwen, go to the government to report to the government, and receive the reward of 20,000 taels, which is also a lifetime of worry-free food and clothing.

Ling Muyun couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw this, he was not one of these ordinary people who didn't know anything, he had already heard people talk about this Xiangtianwen name, but he couldn't imagine that with Xiangtianwen's identity, how could he become a Jiangyang thief wanted by the imperial court?

This Xiang Tianwen is a remarkable figure, and he is in the position of the Zuo Tianjun of the Demon Sect. The Demon Sect here does not refer to the Firmament God Cult, but the Heavenly King Sect that dominates the green forests and underworld in the south and has also infiltrated the north.

The Firmament Divine Sect is the first of the three holy lands of one sect, and it is the number one force in martial arts, so naturally no one dares to call it a demon sect, even if it is the three holy lands that are also super forces.

As for the Heavenly King Sect, although the strength is also very strong, it has not yet reached the point where it is difficult to resist the fear of the major sects, and most of the people under his command are people from the underworld and green forests, and there are many conflicts with the interests of the major sects of the righteous path, so they are named the Demon Sect by the major famous sects.

Therefore, the people in the rivers and lakes generally refer to the Celestial God Cult as the Divine Cult of God, and the Demon Sect as the Heavenly King Sect, while the members of the Heavenly King Sect call themselves the Holy Religion, and there are not many people who really call the Heavenly King Sect by the name of the regular religion.

According to the rules of the Heavenly King Sect, the highest status in the sect is naturally the sect leader, also known as the Holy Heavenly King, and all the disciples of the Heavenly King Sect worship and pledge allegiance to him. Under the Holy Heavenly King, the sect leader, there are the left and right Dharma Protector Heavenly Monarchs, among which the left and right Dharma Protector Heavenly Monarchs are of the same level, but in general, they are still respected by the left, and they are usually served by those with high skills and deep qualifications as the Left Protector Heavenly Monarch.

Under the left and right Dharma Protector Heavenly Monarchs, there are the ten Dharma Protector Elders, and below the ten elders are the hall masters of the seven halls of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, and thunder, and then there are a large number of incense masters, deacons, disciples, and so on.

In other words, in terms of status, the Left Protector Heavenly Monarch is the second person in the Heavenly King Sect after the Sect Leader Holy Heavenly King!

The number two person of the Demon Sect has become a Jiangyang thief wanted by the imperial court? I'm afraid that when any Jianghu person hears this news, his first thought is not to believe it, thinking that the person who said it is joking. But the government's bounty wanted list is hanging here, so he can't believe it.

In addition to being shocked, Ling Muyun couldn't help but secretly guess, what the hell is going on? (To be continued......)
