Chapter 52: The Sword of Domineering
Provincial capital, Nine Winds City.
The night is like ink, and everything is silent.
Across the street from the Governor's Palace, above a house, two figures flew one after the other.
The masked girl suddenly stopped, turned around, and the magic sword slashed across her chest, and a ray of light smeared on the blade.
The young man who was chasing after him tightened his big hand, and the coiling dragon stick reflected a golden light, reflecting a rock-like face.
Hanging barefoot in the air, he glanced down and said coldly: "You did it on purpose?"
The magic bell blinked slyly: "What nonsense, do you want to fight or not?"
The golden light of the coiling dragon stick burst out, and Wu Zhen jumped high, and smashed it towards the magic bell.
"Boom!"
With a blow in the air, the houses on the ground collapsed with a bang, and smoke and dust rose into the sky.
Boom, boom, boom!
......
Early in the morning, Ye Changsheng, accompanied by the great worshipper Qiu Tianzuo, took a boat to Liuhe City, accompanied by Feng Laokun, the chief treasurer of the Sword Pavilion.
The bruises on Qiu Tianzuo's face had not subsided, and he said with a look of shame: "Childe, you are old and incompetent. ”
Just yesterday, he was beaten into the water by Qingyun Dao Chief, although he was not injured, but he lost face.
Ye Changsheng smiled faintly: "The grievances are enshrined, please believe in Changsheng, your defeat today means a lot to my Ye family!"
Qiu Tianzuo seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and retired and walked out of the cabin.
He didn't understand, why would Childe know that Qingyun Dao was in Nanqiao?
Why did Childe ask him to perform the "Eight Methods of Qiankun" when he was making a move?
But defeat is defeat, skills are not as good as people, there is nothing to say.
Childe has a seven-trick exquisite heart, how can he guess his mind?
Along the way, Ye Changsheng inspected several docks, and listened to Ye Xiangdong's report on the situation of the fleet, and was very satisfied.
The waterway and fleet are the Ye family's back roads, and they must be firmly controlled in their hands.
At dusk, the group arrived at Liuhe City and went straight to Liu's mansion.
"Master, Changsheng has come to see you!" In the back garden of Liu's Mansion, Uncle Long stepped forward and said with a smile.
Liu Lao was wearing a wide regular robe and was tending to the flowers and plants, and when he turned around when he heard the words, he saw Ye Changsheng in a wheelchair.
A happy smile appeared on his face, and he scolded with a smile: "You kid, remember me, an old man, who hasn't come to see me for so long!"
Uncle Long was surprised by Liu Lao's intimate attitude and retreated.
Changsheng pushed the wheelchair forward and saluted again: "Old Liu, no, I should call you Mo Choubo!"
Hahahaha, Liu Lao burst out with hearty laughter and proudly touched the hilt of the sword on his waist.
Mo Chou has already put on the scabbard of the demon beast skin, and the outside is also wrapped in net-like linen, which is more simple and introverted.
Now that Mo Chou Jian and Mo Chou Bo are rumored to be a good story even in the capital, how can Liu Lao be unhappy?
Sitting down in the gazebo in the garden, Liu Lao asked about Changsheng's current situation with concern.
When he learned that Changsheng was going to open a branch in the county town, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then nodded thoughtfully.
Looking at Changsheng with a smile, Liu Lao said enthusiastically: "Is there anything you need the old man's help with?"
Changsheng hurriedly said: "Elder Liu, the sword that Changsheng forged for the envoy has been cast, but the decoration is not accurate, I hope you can help me take a closer look." ”
Liu Lao nodded appreciatively, this sword of the envoy is to be given to the nobles, and there is indeed a lot of exquisiteness, which is not enough for outsiders.
Mistakes like the "Sword of the King" must not be made.
"What else?"
Changsheng smiled: "Just this matter, nothing else. ”
Liu Lao was disappointed and relieved, disappointed that Changsheng didn't ask him for help, and relieved, Changsheng didn't ask him for help after all.
Suddenly thinking of something, Liu Lao did not move and said, "Changsheng, something happened in Nine Wind City last night, do you know?"
Provincial capital?
Ye Changsheng shook his head, he couldn't even take care of Sanshui Town, how could he know what was happening in the provincial capital.
Seeing that Ye Changsheng didn't look like he was pretending, Liu Lao sighed: "I don't know if this matter is good for you or bad for you." ”
Ye Changsheng couldn't help it: "Old Liu, what is the matter?"
"In the provincial capital, when the senior monks of the Fayan Sect were chasing and killing the disciples of the Demon Sect, there was a fight, and three people died. ”
Liu Lao looked at Ye Changsheng and said slowly: "These three people, one is the former butler of the Governor's Mansion, Ma Gonggong, the other is the chief soldier of the River Yamen, and the other is the big shopkeeper of Futian Commercial Bank!"
Ye Changsheng looked shocked, and he was so shocked that he almost stood up.
Ma Gonggong, Ren Zongbing, Yun Shopkeeper, these three people are all the forces behind Red Leaf Villa!
What the hell is going on, why are these three people dying?
Ye Changsheng finally understood the meaning of Liu Lao's words, and said with a wry smile: "Liu Lao, Changsheng really doesn't know about this matter. ”
The three people behind the Hong family died, which must be a good thing for Changsheng.
On the bad side, Ye Changsheng, as the biggest beneficiary, will definitely be suspected of colluding with the Demon Gate in the future.
Liu Lao nodded: "Afterwards, the Governor's Mansion and Master Longhai strictly ordered to block the news, but the old man knew more or less that there were only two people fighting. ”
Two people?
Ye Changsheng smiled bitterly again.
Needless to say, it must be that the magic bell wants to repay his favor and take the opportunity to kill these three people.
But a person who is so serious will also accompany the magic bell?
To say that Wuzhen was used by the magic bell, Changsheng must not believe it.
These two guys, dare to say that there is no tacit understanding between you?
Liu Lao leaned over and poured Ye Changsheng a cup of tea, and after sitting down, he said indifferently: "Changsheng, do you know the true background of the four major families?"
Ye Changsheng shook his head blankly.
"Let's talk about the most powerful Huanglong Villa, the world only knows Huang Sanyuan, who is a squire in the official residence and military department, but does not know Huang Tianze and his person. ”
"Huang Tianze?"
Liu Lao nodded: "This person is Huang Tianbo's elder brother, who was ordained a monk at the age of six, and is now the hall master of Cifu Temple. ”
Ye Changsheng was shocked, and a strong uneasiness surged in his heart.
Cifu Temple, the largest temple in the Principality of Yunlong, is also a temple dedicated to the royal family.
Huang Tianze, as the head of the first temple, is so powerful in stealth power!
The highest status of the Buddhist temple is naturally the abbot, and then the first one, like Master Longhai, is the first one of the Tangmen Temple.
Under the first seat, there is the west hall, the back hall, the hall master, and then the eight deacons.
The hall master, the fifth person in the temple, the absolute top person!
Liu Lao continued: "Let's talk about Zixia Villa, the Zi family has done nothing in recent years, but there have been two Shangshu before, you must know this, but do you know the relationship between the Zi family and the Daomen?"
Ye Changsheng shook his head in a daze, in fact, he had heard that Zixia Mountain Villa and Daomen were closely related, but he didn't know what kind of close method.
"Although the Dao Gate is in decline, the heritage of thousands of years cannot be underestimated, do you know the largest Taoist temple in the principality?"
"Zixia Palace. Ye Changsheng blurted out, and then his scalp began to tingle.
Zixia Palace, Zixia Villa, even the name is the same, the relationship between the two, do you need to talk about it!
