Chapter 371: What Yizhuang Heard
This Yizhuang is located in the northeast of a village, seven or eight miles away from the village, backed by the mountain, there are two acres square, the coat courtyard wall, a main house is very dilapidated, there is no ear room to indicate that this Yizhuang is unguarded, what attracted Zuo Dengfeng's attention is that the yard of this Yizhuang is piled up with a large amount of soil, it has just snowed a few days ago, but there is no snow on these soils, which means that they have been dug up in the past few days after the snow.
This kind of building in Yizhuang is relatively rare in the Republic of China, in the pre-Qing Dynasty Yizhuang is generally built in the county or a relatively large village, the role is to park those who are not suitable for burial for the time being, there are some outsiders who die in other places, the corpse will also be parked in Yizhuang for a long time, but generally speaking, Yizhuang is a place to park the corpse rather than a place to bury the corpse, how can someone dig in this Yizhuang.
In addition, the courtyard was full of earth, so naturally it was not excavated in the courtyard, which means that someone was digging in the main hall.
It was early in the morning, and the sky was bright, and there was a slight noise in the village, and if you heard it closely, it was the sound of a creaking wheel, which is generally used in the countryside to carry water from a well, and sometimes the tomb robbers would also use it to shake the soil from the ground to the ground.
After a short period of silence, Zuo Dengfeng dodged and fell into the courtyard of Yizhuang, the position where he fell was facing the gate of the main house of Yizhuang, and the moment he fell, he saw seven or eight people in the main hall of Yizhuang, most of whom were dressed as farmers, so that Zuo Dengfeng did not expect that there were two middle-aged Taoists wearing Taoist robes in the house.
At this time, a huge pit had been dug in the middle of the room, and a wheel was erected above the hole, and everyone was shaking the wheel to lift the soil upwards, and the two Taoists in Taoist costumes were sitting on the east side near the window and drinking.
A farmer who was carrying soil out was the first to discover Zuo Dengfeng, and after being surprised, he put down the basket in his hand and came over to blast him, "Where did you come from, you want food, get out." ”
"Since you're here, don't go." Before Zuo Dengfeng could respond, another big man walked in the room, and while walking, he pulled out the knife in his waist.
"Boss, forget it, I think he's a crazy person, and he doesn't know how to run." The farmer who had previously blasted Zuo to the peak stopped the big man.
"Crazy people are the best fools." The big man brushed aside the farmer and walked to Zuo Dengfeng with a knife in his hand.
Zuo Dengfeng raised his eyebrows and glanced at the other party, calmly reached out and grabbed the wrist of the other party holding the knife.
The big man was grabbed by Zuo Dengfeng's wrist, and he struggled to stab the dagger into Zuo Dengfeng's lower abdomen, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move forward at all.
"My mother, senior brother, it can't be him, right?" At this moment, one of the Taoist priests in a black sermon robe glanced at Zuo Dengfeng, and then turned his head to look at his senior brother in shock.
"I don't know what is alive or dead, I have blinded your dog's eyes, and I dare to be rude to Zuo Zhenren, retreat quickly." The Taoist priest who was called Senior Brother did not answer his junior brother's question, but quickly walked over and bent down to Zuo Dengfeng to salute, he had already seen the style of Zuo Dengfeng's clothes at a glance before, and knew that the clothes he was wearing were Taoist robes, so he guessed Zuo Dengfeng's identity at the first time.
"What are you doing here?" Zuo Dengfeng let go of the big man and turned his head to look at the middle-aged Taoist, the two middle-aged Taoists were both forty-two or thirteen years old, with a vulgar face, and there was a black mole above the corner of the mouth of the Taoist priest known as Senior Brother.
"Back to the real person to ask, the villagers here accidentally found this ancient tomb, because of the evil things inside, they invited our two brothers to help, the people in the Taoist gate should not dig the grave and dig the grave, but our brother is still vulgar after the skill of making a living, in order to live this matter." The Taoist priest bowed and replied.
"Ah, big cat, I've seen a real person, my senior brother is right." The other Taoist priest didn't seem to have enough brains, and when he came to see the ceremony, he saw the thirteen outside the door, and only after exclaiming did he see the ceremony, and at the same time echoing his senior brother's words, speaking incoherently.
"What's wrong with your ears?" Zuo Dengfeng looked sideways at the Taoist priest who was speaking, this person's right ear was missing, and it was very funny at first glance.
"Let the Japanese devils cut it." The stupid Taoist priest replied in a daze.
"My junior brother is not very bright, he can't speak clearly, and the one who cut off his ear is not a Japanese devil, but a Japanese ninja." The black mole hurriedly spoke to explain, and seeing that Zuo Dengfeng's expression was quite calm, the pressure in his heart decreased slightly.
"When?" Zuo Dengfeng asked with a smile.
"Last year's Layue, kowtow to the real person, otherwise you won't know how to die." The stupid Taoist priest gave the big man who was stunned on the side a slap, although he didn't have enough brains, he also knew how to please the strong.
"No, you can do it." Zuo Dengfeng turned around and walked to the right, the two Taoist priests used a coffin board as a table to place the wine and food, Zuo Dengfeng walked over and picked up a bottle of wine that had not been opened, and after checking it, he opened the bottle and took a sip.
"Real person, the little one is blind, you are a real person, don't be like a layman like me." The big man had seen Zuo Dengfeng's power, and hurriedly came over to kowtow and apologize.
"It's okay, if it were me, I would kill people and kill people, and you should continue to dig." Zuo Dengfeng grabbed a handful of fried peanuts and peeled them and ate them.
"How did Zuo Zhenren come here?" The black mole asked cautiously. He and his junior brother were standing now, and there were only two seats, one for Zuo Dengfeng to sit on, and the other for Thirteen to sit. Taking a step back, even if Thirteen didn't sit, they wouldn't dare to sit.
"I'll come here to see an acquaintance, you don't have to be nervous, if I want to kill someone, I would have done it a long time ago, what is your name, which sect of Taoism is it?" Zuo Dengfeng asked casually. There is a slight difference between the Taoist robes worn by Zhengyi and Quanzhen Taoist priests, and people in the Taoist sect can see it at a glance.
"Back to the real person, Poor Dao Ma Ying, this is Zhu Xiong, the junior disciple of Poor Dao, we were previously disciples of Xuanqingguan." The black mole hurriedly replied, and the priest had his name and surname, which was different from the Quanzhen Taoist priest.
"What did you do to get out of the way?" Zuo Dengfeng asked with a smile, Xuanqingguan is a well-known branch of Zhengyi Sect, located at the junction of Fujian and Zhejiang.
"We didn't get into trouble, Xuanqingguan was ruined by the Japanese devils, and my ear was cut off at that time." Zhu Xiong said first.
"It's a Japanese ninja, not a Japanese devil." Ma Ying once again corrected that the gap between the Japanese devils and the Japanese ninjas is too big, and it would be very embarrassing to say that the ears of the Japanese devils were cut off. Before Zuo Dengfeng arrived, the two of them were treated as guests by these tomb robbers, and they couldn't lose their names.
"Japanese ninjas went to your temple?" Zuo Dengfeng frowned and asked, before that, he had always thought that the two of them had suffered a loss when they met ninjas outside, but he didn't expect that it was the Japanese ninjas who came to the door to bully them, Xuanqingguan was not very weak, and ordinary ninjas would never dare to go forward to provoke.
"Not only did they go to our Taoist temple, but they all went to the Taoist temple they were looking for, and the nine devils were more powerful than the other, so after we went, let us kowtow and admit defeat, and kill ...... if we don't kowtow."
"Shut up. Back to Zuo Zhenren, the nine most powerful ninjas in Japan went to our Taoist temple, and almost all of them went to the Taoist temple in Jiangnan and Jiangbei, you haven't walked around from the rivers and lakes recently, right? Ma Ying hurriedly diverted his junior brother's words, and let him continue to speak, and the matter of the two kowtowing and begging for their lives will be revealed.
"Did the nine devils in Longhu Mountain go?" Zuo Dengfeng frowned when he heard this, and put down the wine bottle.
"Go, this sect Heavenly Master is no match for them." Ma Ying replied.
"Did Maoshan send it?" Zuo Dengfeng asked.
"I also went, and the Maoshan faction directly made them turn their heads up." Zhu Xiong didn't speak, and he panicked.
"Is Golden Needle Du Qiuting alive or dead?" Zuo Dengfeng frowned and asked again.
"I don't know the whereabouts of the earth master, but the silver crown let them besiege the crane, and the Taoist priests of the Quanzhen Sect were also killed." Ma Ying stretched out his hand and pointed eastward.
"Why didn't I know that something was so big?" Zuo Dengfeng was suddenly shocked when he heard this, he had been alone for a long time, and he had been in the border desert some time ago, and the news was extremely closed.
"Real people have glimpsed the fairyland, and they live in a paradise, so naturally they can't hear these news." Ma Ying took the opportunity to pat himself on the back.
"Did they go to the Shaolin Temple to provoke?" Zuo Dengfeng frowned and asked again. These nine Japanese ninjas were humiliated by him in Zhou Ling before, and they will inevitably be angry with people in their cultivation.
"No, they didn't go to the Buddhist temple, I don't know why they only look at us Taoist priests unpleasantly." Zhu Xiong was the first to answer.
Zuo Dengfeng nodded when he heard this, Buddhism has a certain status in Japan, and some of the nine Japanese ninjas may have intersections with Buddhism, so they didn't go to Buddhist temples to pick quarrels and provoke trouble, so they don't have to worry about the safety of iron shoes.
"Are there only nine people in their group?" Zuo Dengfeng pondered for a moment and asked again.
"Nine." Zhu Xiong replied again.
"Only nine? Don't have an entourage? Zuo Dengfeng asked again.
"Nope." Zhu Xiong thought for a moment and replied.
"Do they speak our language?" Zuo Dengfeng asked again.
"Two of them can speak, and they can't speak well." Zhu Xiong replied.
Zuo Dengfeng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, it seemed that the nine ninjas were also using lightning raids, after all, some places were controlled by the Kuomintang and the Eighth Route Army, and they couldn't do whatever they wanted. The principle of blitzkrieg is to fight when you come, and leave when you are done, so that those Japanese ninjas will not stay in a certain place for too long, and they will not carry an interpreter, so they will not be able to have a detailed conversation with those Taoists, and they will not press the whereabouts of the Chenzhou faction. The Chenzhou faction lives in Xiangxi, the terrain is remote, and there is little contact with the outside world, and there is no one to guide those ninjas who can't find the Chenzhou faction.
Although he breathed a sigh of relief for the time being, Zuo Dengfeng's heart was still pressed on a big stone, he had been to the Chenzhou faction a few years ago, and the Chenzhou faction was still safe at that time, and the Chenzhou sect leader did not talk to him about the Japanese ninja, maybe the Chenzhou sect didn't know about it at all, or maybe he didn't have time to say it because he knew it, or maybe he didn't have time to say it in a hurry.
Although the Chenzhou faction is safe now, the nine Japanese ninjas will find the Chenzhou faction sooner or later, because the Jiuyang monkey is there. The last round of attacks by the Japanese ninjas may just be a show of power, and the next time they will inevitably be targeted, directly towards the Yang Territory, and then the Chenzhou faction will have to suffer.
Judging by the notice I saw in Jinan earlier, these Japanese ninjas may be in Shandong now, and they should rest for a few days during the Chinese New Year, because Japan also has a Spring Festival. But it's hard to say what they're going to do after the New Year, if you can't find him in Jinan Mansion, it's possible to do something else, and if they go to the Chenzhou faction, it's really bad.
The only way to do this is to let the Japanese know his whereabouts, and at the same time drag the Japanese ninjas in Jinan while looking for Jiang Ziya's mausoleum, so as not to let them go south. However, this move undoubtedly transferred the danger that Yufu might face to himself.
After pondering for a long time, Zuo Dengfeng raised his hand and beckoned the big man, the top priority was to determine whether the ancient tomb found by others in front of him was Jiang Ziya's mausoleum, if not, he must step up the search. If so, you have to carefully consider the time to show up in Jinan Mansion, which is not far from Jinan Mansion, and the Japanese ninja is not a vegetarian, and the other party will soon find this place after he appears. But if you show up late, the Japanese ninja can't go south, and it's very difficult to know when to show up......
