Chapter 224: Righteous Qi Villa
"According to what you say, then Cihang Pudu is really plotting against you?"
Zhuge Wolong frowned, and his face showed a rare solemn look: "The country is about to die, and there will be demons...... Unexpectedly, this old saying was fulfilled so quickly. The more than 200-year-old national Zuo of Great Chu, is it about to come to an end? β
"Zhuge senior, the more times like this, people like you should come forward and turn the tide!"
Su Zimo smiled secretly, judging from Zhuge Wolong's reaction, the other party was still very concerned about the safety of the imperial court, after all, Confucianism for thousands of years had long been imprinted in the hearts of these scholars.
And this time, he deliberately exaggerated the facts, also in order to arouse Zhuge Wolong's long-dormant heart to serve the country.
"Hey!"
Zhuge Wolong sighed, shook his head and said, "I thought that the old man would die here in this life, but I didn't want to ......."
"So, senior, did you promise to enter the capital with us?" Su Zimo said.
"Not bad."
Zhuge Wolong couldn't help nodding, glanced at Su Zimo again, and said in a deep voice: "Looking at Gongzi's face, he is not a big traitor, I hope that what Gongzi said is not to deceive the old man...... Speaking of which, over there in the capital, the old man still has a few close friends, so he should be able to help a little. β
"Thank you, senior."
Su Zimo was overjoyed, with Zhuge Wolong, this time he would undoubtedly be more sure of entering Beijing to deal with Cihang Pudu.
Moreover, Zhuge Wolong is well-known in the literary world, and many ministers are also his acquaintances, and with this alone, if you enter Beijing to face the saint or something, you will have a lot less unnecessary trouble.
After that, Su Zimo also successfully ransomed Ning Caichen and Zhuge Wolong from prison.
After some grooming and dressing, the two finally regained a bit of their scholarly appearance.
Needless to say, Ning Caichen belongs to the image of that kind of cream student, with that stunned look, it is no wonder that in the original book, it will make Nie Xiaoqian fall in love.
And Zhuge Wolong.
Don't look at the feeling of a bad old man in the prison, but after some freshening up, he changed into a black Confucian shirt, and the whole person really feels like a think tank and military advisor.
Soon, the group left Jinhua Town and rushed in the direction of the capital.
This is a long way to go to the capital, considering that Ning Caichen and Zhuge Wolong, both of them are ordinary people, and they don't have any martial arts, Su Zimo had to prepare a few fast horses.
In the blink of an eye, the sky gradually darkened, and it looked gloomy, as if it was about to rain.
"Zhiqiu Dao Chang, it seems that the weather is about to rain, let's find a place to avoid it first, right?" Ning Caichen said.
"It's nature."
Su Zimo couldn't help nodding, recalling the plot in the original book, and said quietly: "I heard that not far ahead, there is a righteous mountain villa, although it has been abandoned for a long time, it can be used as a place to shelter from the rain." β
"Righteous Spirits?"
Ning Caichen was stunned for a moment, and there was a hint of strangeness in his heart, as if he was curious, Su Zimo was obviously not familiar with the nearby terrain, but why did he look like he had expected it.
Fortunately, he was not the kind of person who was too careful, so he just nodded silently.
Soon, it didn't take long for a group of people to walk again, but Xiahou Jian, who was walking in the forefront, suddenly stopped and pointed to the front: "Look, is there a house in the place in front?" β
Everyone couldn't help but look sideways in the direction that Xiahou Jian was pointing at.
Not far away, there was a manor with only a ruined wall, faintly standing among a sparse woods, looking like an indescribable horror, like a huge beast's mouth, trying to choose people to devour.
However, everyone present was accustomed to seeing the wind and waves, and even Ning Caichen, who had always been timid and afraid of things, had become a lot bolder in the more than a year of tempering.
Besides, Ning Caichen also knew that the few people beside him were all capable people, so he followed everyone to the villa as if nothing happened.
Righteous Spirits!
Looking at the dusty plaque, Ning Caichen turned his head, looked at Su Zimo suspiciously, and said, "Dao Chief, do we really want to live in this place?" β
"Oh, you scholar, what nonsense are you talking about, you're here, let's go and have a look first!"
Xiahou Jian on the side waved his hand impatiently, and without waiting for Ning Caichen to speak, he stepped forward and stretched out his hand to press in front of the door.
"Bang dang!"
I heard a loud bang, and the door collapsed.
Xiahou Jian was stunned, then smiled bitterly and spread his hands towards everyone, shook his head and said, "I didn't do anything just now, I just touched this door lightly." β
"Crackleβ"
At the same time, in the sky, a flash of lightning rose, followed by a loud thunderclap.
Seeing this, everyone hurriedly looked up at the sky.
I saw that the sky was full of dark clouds and thunder, and it seemed that it would rain soon.
At this moment, Ning Caichen, who had the intention of proposing to live in a different place for one night, couldn't help but show a trace of bitterness, and said helplessly: "It seems that we can really only stay here tonight." β
Immediately, everyone walked into the house, only to see that in front of the door, eight black coffins were neatly placed, with a ghostly atmosphere, and it looked like it was still infiltrating.
"Boom-"
Seeing these eight coffins, Ning Caichen unconsciously showed a trace of fear, and took a few steps back with some fear, speechless.
"One, two, three...... Seven, eight, obediently, I'm afraid the whole family will die here! β
Looking at the eight neatly arranged coffins in the house, Rao is Ning Caichen thought that after so many things, his heart was outstanding, and he also felt that his scalp was bursting, and it took a long time to adjust his mood, and said with a dry smile.
"You're here to watch, I'll go and see if there's any other room to live in."
With that, he walked around the corner and pushed the door open.
"Bump!"
Just listen to a loud bang.
The already dilapidated eaves smashed down heavily, and it was about to fall on top of Ning Caichen's head.
And the latter was already frightened by this sudden change.
"Be careful!"
Fortunately, Xiahou on the side was quick with his eyes, and hurriedly grabbed Ning Caichen's shirt, pulled it back, and narrowly avoided this time.
"Hoo ......"
Narrowly escaped death, Ning Caichen's face suddenly turned extremely pale, and he hurriedly saluted Xiahou Jian.
"Brother Xiahou, thank you...... Thanks a lot. β
Originally, Ning Caichen was a little unkind to Xiahou Jian, thinking that the other party was impatient and an idiot with martial arts, but today's scene made him feel different, and his heart was full of gratitude.
