Chapter 13: Preparing for Deception

After hearing this, Yan Yurong hurriedly came to Gao Wanlong's side and said, "Husband, in a few days, Li Hongzheng will be here! This Steward Xia, in my house, all these years of ups and downs, is it up to him, what should we prepare for his junior brother?"

At this time, Gao Wanlong was teaching children to practice martial arts. After hearing this, he turned around and walked to the side. After thinking about it, he said, "Yes, how did I forget this, are you prepared?"

Yan Yurong shook her head and said, "No." This adult is easy to do, I heard that Li Hongzheng gave birth to a daughter, this child's family, I don't have anything, send jewelry, and too young, send clothes, and don't do it. ”

"This~ Then I'll go to the city to buy some. Gao Wanlong said.

"You are a man, how can you choose? Let the next person go, I don't feel at ease. In this way, I called Ziyi and accompanied me to the city, bought a few beautiful clothes, and bought some jewelry to give to them to express my gratitude. Yan Yurong said.

"That's okay, you can call two more subordinates, go early and come back early. Gao Wanlong said.

"Then I'll go. Yan Yurong said.

"Be careful on the road. Gao Wanlong said.

"Got it. Yan Yurong had already walked out of the door, and all she could hear was a voice.

Gao Wanlong continued to teach his children to practice martial arts.

Yan Yurong walked into Xing Ziyi's room, saw that the next person was combing her hair, and went up and said, "Sister, accompany me to the city in a while, I want to buy something." ”

"Yes, sister. I'll be right away. Xing Ziyi said.

"Okay, I'll go get some money and wait for you at the door. Yan Yurong said.

"Okay, I'll be there in a moment. Xing Ziyi said.

Yan Yurong listened and walked out.

After Xing Ziyi dressed up, she came to the gate of the manor. I saw Yan Yurong already riding on horseback. There were also three horses and two maids beside him.

Xing Ziyi walked over and shouted to Yan Yurong: "Sister, I'm here." ”

"Well, I've just arrived. Yan Yurong replied.

A maid stepped forward and led the horse and said, "Please get on the horse, Madame." ”

Xing Ziyi got on the horse, and the two maids also got on the horse, and the four of them rode towards the Seven Star City.

Two men dressed in a copper-colored seven-star pattern closed the door. Standing in the doorway, there were six identical people standing outside, facing outward, guarding the manor.

I saw that on the two gates, there was a golden seven-star arrangement pattern, and a banner on the door: Seven Star Manor.

At the two ends of the gate wall, there are two beacon towers, each with two hundred, guarded by seven star warriors. A mouth is placed in the middle of the beacon tower, and the large bronze alarm bell rings. There are two horns, a long-beaked drum horn blower. In the other two corners, there are two wolf smoke copper pots.

Chunlan, Ren Qianmian and his disciples also went to the street early. I saw that they were dressed in Taoist robes, holding white Buddha dust in their right hand, holding a yin and yang fortune-telling sail in their left hand, and wearing a fortune teller's hat. If you didn't know him, you really thought it was a fortune teller.

When Chunlan and a few people around her saw it, they snickered without covering their mouths.

Ren Qianmian and a few disciples, facing each other, surrounded each other. Several people pointed their swords in their right hands and pointed at their faces. Using the source qi, I saw black smoke fluttering above their heads, slowly rising.

After a while, they turned around.

When Chunlan and the others saw it, their jaws dropped in shock, their eyes bulged wide, and their mouths opened wide.

"Is this a face-swapping technique?" asked Chunlan.

"That's right. Ren Qianmian said.

At this time, Ren Qianmian and the others had already transformed into another person.

"The juniors have been taught, please here. Chunlan waved her hand.

Subsequently, Chunlan and the others arranged them in each street, prepared in advance, and put seats and some related props on them a long time ago. Subsequently, Chunlan and the others left.

In a moment, Ren Qianmian and the others put on a posture and shouted in a decent manner: "Fortune telling, fortune telling." It is not allowed not to collect money, and only to collect money if it is accurate. Fortune telling, fortune telling, it is not allowed not to collect money, and only when it is accurate is to collect money. ”

Xia Fu came to Canglong Mansion, got off his horse, and walked in.

Several dragons are discussing the trivial things to do in a day.

When they saw Xia Fu walking in, they got up and saluted, "Mr. Xia is in charge." ”

Xia Fu also said politely: "Morning, everyone. ”

"I don't know what happened today, Mr. Xia, who rushed over so early?" asked Zu Longshi.

"That's right, according to the message that my junior brother sent me, he should have arrived in Seven Star City yesterday, but now there is no news at all, I am worried that he will encounter accidents on the road, so I want to ask you to send two people to investigate. Xia Fu said.

"Why does Mr. Xia have to see the outside world like this? As soon as it was a trivial matter, I immediately called someone to do it. Zu Longshi said.

"Then there's Brother Lao Zulong. Xia Fuli said.

"Okay, I'll go now. Zu Long Shili said and walked out.

Xia Fu asked the other dragons, "How many city lords are there now?"

"Twenty or so. The Candle Dragon replied.

"Give me a copy of their personnel list. Xia Fu said.

"Okay, I'll go and copy it for you first. Huang Longshi said and walked out.

Xia Fu said to the other dragon warriors: "You arrange fifty of them, the Seven Star Scholars will give me, I will go to the edge of the city in the next few days, and the farmer's house will buy pork and vegetables, and Steward Hu is too busy to do it alone, so ask me to share it for him." By the way, fifty wagons will be prepared to help with the consignment. ”

"Okay, please wait a while, Brother Xia, and we'll do it right away. A few dragons retreated.

Xia Fu also bowed his hand to them, and he came to the Seven Star City again, looking in front of the sand table diagram, pointing left and right. I muttered inwardly, "Is there anything else I haven't considered?"

After a while, several dragons prepared the carriage and fifty seven-star soldiers. When they came to Xia Fu's side, Huang Longshi arched his hand and said, "Manager Xia, what you want, we have prepared it for you, you check it out, and hand over some list papers." ”

"Good. Xia Fu arrived, walked out, and put the list in his pocket.

When he came to the gate, he saw fifty seven-star soldiers, pulling fifty pallet carriages. Xia Fu counted it, enough to count. He bowed his hand to the dragons and said, "Thank you, brothers. ”

"Follow us, you're welcome. A few people said.

"Okay, farewell, see you at Seven Star Peak. Xia Fu said.

Several dragon warriors also arched their hands and said, "See you at the Seven Star Peak." ”

Xia Fu mounted his horse and walked towards the peasant households in the countryside.

Hu Jiande and ten men led horses to wander on the street. The next people, looking at the excitement in the east and the goods in the west, discussed in a whisper from time to time.

Hu Jiande's eyes are like owls at night, looking for their own "prey" in the crowd on the street.

Suddenly, he saw his junior brother, Huang Xilong, looking at him. Then he led his horse and followed, and his men followed him.

Hu Jiande saw that Huang Xilong walked into a courtyard, and he also followed him to the door.

Then he turned to his servant and said, "This is it, the things are inside, put the horses outside, you go in and bring the food out." ”

"Yes, Steward Hu. The men saluted him and went in at the door.

When he saw the last man enter, he immediately closed the knocker.

I only heard a scream inside, and after a while, there was no sound.

After the silence, Hu Jiande pushed open a little crack in the door, entered sideways, and immediately closed the door.

I saw that inside, there were corpses lying there, and the death was terrible, these were the people who had just entered.

There was a group of people standing next to the corpse, it was Yan Nanzhao and the city lords of their cities.

I saw Zhong Sheng, Ye Tiantong, Hu Jishan, Ma Piaoqing, Miao Guheng, Chi Xingyang, Sha Ganghai, Tang Lin, and Luo Ziyu in their hands, each holding a bloody heart, and some were still jumping.

Ten people used their source qi with their hands, their hearts burst, and nine people shook their heads.

Ma Piaoqing said: "Alas~ I said Xiaohu! You didn't bring a few, a little bit of effort? ”

"Hey, old horse, that's all you have to blame for your bad luck. Look at me, there is such a star, and it is not in vain!" Hu Jishan said, only to see that in his palm, there was a small blood-red blood source, glowing red, as soon as he shook his hand, the source qi moved, and he was sucked into his own body by refining.

Hu Jiande knelt down at this time and saluted Yan Nanzhao: "Disciple to meet the master, the seniors of the city lords. Master, I haven't been by your old side for more than ten years, and I miss you very much, master. Hu Jiande said, kowtowing down.

"Xiaohu, your suffering, we all remember. For the sake of Excalibur, he is alone, and he is a fearful officer in Seven Star City. I, the City of Ten Thousand Beasts, remember your credit. Hu Jishan patted his chest and said.

"Xiaohu, don't worry. When this is over, my sister will give you a daughter-in-law, ah!" Wan Rose said.

"Is your daughter-in-law from Wanhua City, or?" Luo Ziyu asked.

Wan Rose gave him a blank look.

When everyone heard this, they burst out laughing.

"Alright, get up and go inside. Yan Nanzhao said.

Hu Jiande got up, and they went into the courtyard room and sat down. Huang Xilong guarded the door.

Yan Nanzhao sat on it, the first-class city sat on one side, and the second-class city sat on the side.

Hu Jiande stood in the middle and said, "Master Qiyu, I have almost prepared for the above things. Xia Fu has been led away by me and went to the countryside to collect vegetables. There are no four days, and you can't come back. Yan Yurong has been fooled, and I believe that she will come to the city soon. ”

"Okay, now I'm waiting for the Thousand Faces brothers, their news. Yan Nanzhao said.

After a while, there was a knocking sound outside the gate.

Huang Xilong saw through the crack in the door that it was Chunlan, opened the door, and let her in. He looked out the door again, but there was no one and closed the door.

Chunlan walked into the room and said politely, "Qi Yan Alliance Lord, City Lord, Yan Yurong and Xing Ziyi have already taken to the street. ”

"Okay! Yan Nanzhao said.

"Yes. Chunlan said and retreated.

"Why are you a little nervous?" Yi Gongming said.

"Yo! Brother Yi is also nervous?" Wan Rose asked.

Yi Gongming glanced at her.

Everyone is also anxiously waiting for their results.

It was morning, the sun was shining, the wind was blowing, and it was difficult to blow away, and the enthusiasm of the sun was blowing.

Although it is very hot in summer, there are still people coming and going on the street, and there is an endless stream, some of them go to the city to see the liveliness of the street, and there are those who come from the city to celebrate their birthdays. There are those who come to do business, and there are acrobatic circus, and there are countless of them. Among them, there are good people and bad people, and there are all of them.

Gao Wanlong's birthday is a rare grand occasion in Seven Star City, and shrewd merchants take this opportunity to take out their family funds, constantly shouting, and soliciting guests.

Yan Yurong and Xing Ziyi came out of a jewelry store, their faces were full of joy, they exchanged ears, pointed and laughed at the goods they bought.

Yan Yurong asked, "Sister, I heard that Li Hongzheng has a daughter?"

"Yes, sister. She is the child of Hongzheng and his sister Le Yuqin, named Li Meichun, who is eight years old this year. Xing Ziyi replied.

"Li Meichun, this name is so nice. I'll buy some clothes for this kid later. Yan Yurong said.

"No need, sister, don't spend so much. Xing Ziyi said.

"What are you talking about, it's not easy for children to come all the way. There are no gifts at all, and I will definitely be sad and cry. Adults forget it, children must be prepared. Otherwise, my sister is too unreasonable. ”

"This~" Xing Ziyi was also embarrassed, so she had to acquiesce.

"Alright, alright! It won't cost a few more bucks, let's go, go up and have a look. Yan Yurong took her hand and walked forward.
