Chapter 31: Old Hatred and New Grudge 1
In the afternoon, Chen Feng and all the soldiers had lunch, and dismantled the camp tent step by step. Soon, the first batch of soldiers led by the captain will be ready to go! The six hundred elites carefully selected by Chen Feng and the others have also been prepared. However, these six hundred elites can't set off into the city for the time being, and they need to wait for Lu Zhong to find a base to place them first, and they can't be exposed casually. Therefore, Chen Feng and the others slowly entered the city with the first batch of teams that set off from Cangdong.
Chen Feng and the others returned to the inn. Lu Zhong and Luo Wencheng discussed that they should first acquire a sizable mansion or garden in a more remote area of the city to be used as the headquarters of reincarnation. Then a manor outside the city or in the mountains will also be acquired to be used as a reincarnation base.
Young people act vigorously and decisively when they have a decision. Lu Zhongdi Head Snake took Luo Wencheng and Zhao Xiaojun and began to walk the streets and alleys to look for a house. Chen Feng took Zhang Tianyi in the inn room and began to conceive the training outline of the Dragon Teng Cavalry and the Reincarnation Army!
Chen Feng has been reading all kinds of books on the art of war, techniques and tactics since he was a child, as well as the exchange and discussion of letters and discussions between the two major military achievements in the world, and he has never stopped it in the mountains for ten years. Not to mention that Chen Feng and the post-modern era have led the generation for thousands of years in the idea of special technical warfare! Chen Feng had the confidence to win, and on this basis, he created two extraordinary troops.
Zhang Tianyi has loved to specialize in various human extreme martial arts since he was a child. The talent for practicing martial arts is also extraordinary, and he has studied all kinds of martial arts collected by the Zhenguo Mansion, coupled with Li Xiaoyao and the occasional training of the old man Li for ten years, so now he can be as strong as a train. Then he is an instructor, grasping training, and having some training content, no problem!
The two pondered and meditated, Zhang Tianyi scratched his ears and cheeks, and he didn't know where to put his pen down, and he was in a mess. Chen Fengmo had too many thoughts in his heart, and an idea in the east and an idea in the west came to his mind for a while, and he pressed the gourd to float the scoop.
Until the next day, after lunch, Chen Feng and Zhang Tianyi continued to write hard in the room, crumpling waste paper on the ground. With the help of Chen Feng, the outline of the content framework that the two of them are responsible for has finally come out, and the details are being refined and polished.
Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, followed by a knock on the door.
"Wind boy, wind boy! Good news! There is a very suitable house in the south of the city! We'll come back to you and go on a field trip! Zhao Xiaojun pushed open the door, and his voice was loud and straightforward. Lu Zhong Luo Wencheng followed.
"Really? It's very suitable, then you can just take the idea down! ”
"Yes, all aspects, whether it is the location, the price, the size, the degree of concealment, it is very suitable! It's the owner of this house, a self-made businessman. I'm a little stubborn, I've been in a bit of trouble lately... We don't dare to make up our minds, young master, you might as well come with us! Luo Wencheng stepped forward to explain.
"Okay! When Tianyi and I clean up the results of the next two days, you will sit down first. ”
After a while, a group of five people walked out of the inn. Got into two carriages and headed straight to the south of the city.
An hour smaller, a few people bent around in the market. Finally, we came to a huge lake. The lake is sparkling and the trees and vegetation around the lake are abundant, making it a good scenery. But no one swims in the lake, and no one enjoys the scenery.
"Wow! Is there such a lake in the water city on this day? It's a bit away from the city, which is really good! Compared to other areas, it can be said that it is quite deserted and suitable for us. But where is the house you're talking about? Chen Feng asked.
"Childe, look across the lake on the left-hand side." Lu Zhong stretched out his hand.
I saw that there was indeed a tree-lined path winding on the left hand side of this road. On both sides of the trail is a large field near the lake, and there are some rotten and dilapidated half-demolished houses scattered far and near, and the walls are in ruins. There is a dense forest on the right hand side of the road, and the forest is overgrown with weeds and there is no trace of people. The overall environment does reveal a kind of weirdness.
A few people walked along the tree-lined path. I probably went around the small half of the lake and came to a large mansion. This house is not at all like the dilapidated appearance seen before, there are three steps in front of the door, the blue brick and stone slabs of the square under the stairs are neat, there is a row of tethered horse stones on both sides of the door, there are two stone lions at the door that are more than one person high, the gate is also carved beams and painted buildings, and the courtyard wall stretches and goes to cover the glazed tiles.
"This house! It's not small! The identity of the homeowner is not ordinary, right?! And 50,000 gold was sold? It's worth more than 100,000 gold! Chen Feng asked.
"Hey, Chen Gongzi, there is still a secret inside, let's go in and say, the owner is waiting for us inside!" Lu Zhong didn't explain, and led everyone up the stairs.
Entering the gate and passing through the front yard, the large and small courtyards were scattered and orderly, but there was not a single servant in sight. Came to the main hall of the house, the momentum is magnificent, and the book 'Haoran Hall' is written. The crowd walked into the hall. I saw a young man in his thirties who had come forward, with handsome eyes and starry eyebrows, and his temperament was also quite atmospheric, which made people feel close at first sight, but he frowned slightly, and there was a trace of exhaustion and anger hidden in the room.
"Welcome! Contemptible Zhao fair. Recently, there has been an accident, and the house has been abandoned to this point, which makes you smile! The person who came stretched out his hand and clenched his fists, his face was sincere, but with a hint of helplessness and self-deprecation. Then he invited five people to sit down.
Lu Zhong spoke: "Childe, this is the owner of the house, a great person, six out of thirty have already started this family business from scratch. It's just that I seem to have offended the powerful recently, or there are some hidden secrets, to sell this house, you can talk about it! Brother Zhao, this is our son, Chen Feng, he can decide everything, what is the secret, you can tell me directly! ”
"Hey, Brother Zhao is a talent, all five of us are brothers, and when we close the door, we are all our own people, and if you have something to say, talk about it slowly!" Chen Feng also nodded seriously and said.
Zhao Pingping was silent for a while, thought for a while, and said calmly: "Chen Gongzi." Ladies and gentlemen. I want to sell this house, all because of the family has suffered a change, seven or eight days ago the people took the next person out of the house, went to the market to buy, the two have not returned, I sent all the people in the house to go out to look for two days without success, and then reported to the official, but also found those in the city who are mixed on the road, there is no news! I tried my best, but the two of them disappeared. Leaving our only daughter crying and screaming for her mother all day long. ”
Speaking of this, Zhao Pingping paused and straightened his expression, as if he was about to start the important content, and continued: "In the end, there is really no way, I can only spend a lot of money to put on a high stage in the bazaar, and anyone who can contribute news on the stage will be rewarded with 100 gold!" If the news is true or can bring back the lady, the reward will be 10,000 dollars! In this way, I finally gathered all the news, and I knew that the inner man and the subordinate were taken away by someone, and they were taken into the end of the Eight Horse Liyang! That manor is a hell of a disgrace and a daunting place for ordinary people! ”
"So, dozens of eyewitnesses saw a group of wicked men kidnapping their wives and swaggering to Bama Liyang and entered there, and my bounty was only sent out in the thousands! Under the heavy reward, no one dared to explore, let alone save Mrs.! ”
At this time, Chen Feng turned his head to look at Lu Zhong, because what Zhao Pingping said about Bama Liyang, the mansion at the end, etc., should be known to everyone when he listens to his tone. He didn't know why. Lu Zhong signaled, explained later, and listened to Zhao Pingping first.
Zhao Pingping then narrated: "Helpless, I could only go to report to the official, went to the Yin Yamen of the capital mansion, met the mansion Yin, and truthfully recounted the many news I had gotten, and I wanted to ask for help or two!" Who knows! The dog official was furious and scolded me for talking nonsense, saying that I blatantly framed the prince, whether I wanted to commit treason! Immediately, they ordered someone to bomb me out. And threatened, let me shut up and go home and don't mention this matter again, otherwise I will be careful of my life!! If it weren't for the fact that my business is big, I am also arrogant to all kinds of officials on weekdays, and I have made a lot of friends, and I would have been put in prison right now! ”
"After I went home, I meditated for a few days, my family is still young, and my wife is determined not to give up! Since the underworld and the white road can't go through! Then I can only find another way to gamble! I plan to give up all this family wealth and call the world's warriors and knights, and anyone who can go to the prince's mansion for me to explore and rescue his wife will be given a million gold in both hands! ”
"In this capital, the annual consumption of ordinary people and their families is only a hundred taels of silver, I think this million gold can always have a role! But this million gold, I have to sell all the business property, plus all the cash and gold tickets in hand, it is not enough, so I want to sell this house..."
"When I bought this house, it cost 150,000 gold, and it cost 60,000 or 70,000 gold to decorate and repair it. Now that the matter is urgent, I want to sell it for 50,000 gold. What I have to do next may be to be killed, and if I do it, it will be turned upside down, so I dismissed all the subordinates in the house, and only one of my wife, the nurse, stayed by my side, in fact, she has long been regarded as a dear person by us, she is unwilling to leave, and now she is taking care of the child. Therefore, we apologize for the inconsiderate hospitality to all of you. ”
"You are interested in buying this house, and I have also told you the secret in detail. Business people are honest first, if you buy my house, it is possible that I will be implicated in the future, so I also ask Chen Gongzi and you to think about Zhou Xiang, I Zhao is fair, and I am not willing to create more injustices for my own private affairs. ”
"Oh yes, there is one more thing, you must have seen the decay of this Luming Lake all the way over, the nearby residents and merchants have sold or directly abandoned the house in the past few years, do not flee, all because in recent years, there is a rumor about this Luming Lake, saying that there are water monsters in this lake, specializing in eating people, and will go ashore to walk and drag people into the water. I usually swim in the water and in the wilderness and dense forest on the other side of the lake. It's also very strange, in recent years, it is true that people have fallen into the water and died every year. But I've been walking all over the world and doing business all my life, and I don't believe in this ghost! I told my subordinates to be careful on weekdays, don't go to the lake to play, especially children, and there has never been an accident in my house in recent years. How can there be such an evil rumor from the outside world, and I am left with this Luming Lake! ”
After Chen Feng heard this, the five of them were still digesting, and then Lu Zhong explained to Chen Feng that the capital city mansion Yin, Bama Liyang, and the prince's mansion were located.
"Now this Xilang, the officialdom is indeed rotten, this Prince Xilang, how is the reputation? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't want any women, will he kidnap the women of the good family? Chen Feng looked at Lu Zhong and asked, after all, Lu Zhong Xilang has been mixed in the system for so many years, and he has the right to speak.
"Heh, Prince? Jerud in the single? Straw bales, scum, scum. It is not once or twice that the women of good families have been robbed. There have been seventeen or eighteen times when the news has come out, and what about those who dare to be angry and dare to hide it afterwards? It must be that Brother and Mrs. Zhao have recently gone to the moldy word and were taken by the prince, plus the beauty of Brother and Mrs. Zhao's small jasper is indeed famous, it is said that she is a native of Cangdong Jiangnan, and it was taken back by Brother Zhao and returned to Nancheng for a while! ”
"Moreover, what happened to the troops led by the small army this time, this prince is the culprit, and it was the traitor of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China who suggested that he was an incompetent straw bag and finally decided! Hum! I see this group of inward-facing moths, sooner or later, the whole Xilang will be hoc! The current lord of the country, King Yelu, is also very ridiculous, addicted to beauty, addicted to medicine, and addicted to immortality! It's a nest of snakes and rats! When Lu Zhong heard Chen Feng's question, he complained angrily.
Hearing this, Luo Wencheng and Zhang Tianyi were dumbfounded, and their mouths were open. Zhao Xiaojun obviously knew something inside, and a look of pain appeared on his face.
At this moment, the biggest reaction was Zhao Pingping, originally he thought that what he was going to do was enough to go against the sky, who knew that the general in front of him was ruthless when he accused the current prince of the current government! That expression was eager to draw his sword and kill him. Even the lord of the kingdom was revived!
Zhao Pingping's eyes widened, his mouth opened slightly, and he forgot to close it, thinking: "He, he, isn't he still on duty in the west of the city, he is still holding a good fortune, the last time he came to ask, he was still serious, this time this Chen Gongzi seems to have been reborn after he came!" ”
At this time, Zhang Tianyi stood up and spoke without scruples: "This grandma is a bear, what a prince, first harmed my Xiaojun brothers, and then killed Brother and Mrs. Zhao!" Master! When it gets dark, let me go and take the life of this bale! ”
"Sit down! Listen to Childe's arrangement! Luo Wencheng frowned slightly.
Chen Feng pondered for a while, and said to Zhao Pingping: "Brother Zhao, you don't know much about the situation we are waiting for, hehe, but don't be afraid, we will only help you if we tell you about your situation." This general Zhao Xiaojun was the one who led the troops to the capital some time ago when a plague broke out on the road to the capital but was abandoned, and the main army was just rescued by me in the past two days. So I am equal to what you said about this prince's mansion Yin and the like, there is an old enmity, and you said that you bought your house to implicate me, so there is no need to be afraid at all! There is also this Luming Lake, the strange power is chaotic, and there is no need to worry! My generation is a person who practices martial arts, and the gods block and kill the gods and Buddhas, so why be afraid! ”
"Moreover, I am a person from Cangdong, and my specific identity is difficult to elaborate on now! But you house! I'm sure I can buy it! However, I have a better suggestion than if you want to break the bank and hire someone, would you like to hear it? Chen Feng continued.
Zhao Pingping came back to his senses, and his face was solemn: "Chen Gongzi, you say!" ”
"Okay, what about your house, we will pay for it! But there's no need to continue your practice of summoning heroes for all your money. Once you do it, the paper will not be able to contain the fire, and it will inevitably usher in the whole country of Xilang to clean up. Your lady, I'll save you later, it's just a little prince's mansion, and you don't need to spend millions of dollars! However, there is one condition for all this! Chen Feng stared at Zhao Pingping and said solemnly.
"Chen Gongzi, you say! But all I have, I will pour it out! Zhao Pingping was serious and serious, with a hint of urgency.
"Hey, it can be seen that Brother Zhao is sincere and sincere, and he can create such a family business, and his business acumen must be extraordinary! However, in today's troubled times, it is also a luxury for you to be a rich idler and have no quarrel with the world! So! I don't need you to pour anything, I just want your talent! Your people! What I want is, you, Zhao Pingping, join us and others to participate in the grand event! ”
"If you think about it, if you can get on my boat, you won't be able to get off. Hey, four brothers, you can talk to Brother Zhao, such a good garden, I'll take a look! With that, Chen Feng walked out of the main hall, looked around, and walked around casually.
In the hall, Zhao Pingping was still a little stunned, and it took some time to accept.
At this time, Lu Zhong spoke: "Brother Zhao, don't be surprised by what Gongzi Fang Cai said!" Hehe, Xiaojun and I have also been impressed by Gongzi in the past few days and worshiped under his door! Childe has a prominent identity, but he treats us like brothers, informal. What the son is planning is this world, this world is alive, and the little Xilang and the little prince's mansion are not in his concern! ”
"Oops, what else is there to hesitate about! Brother Zhao, as long as you agree! As long as Childe agrees! In this little prince's mansion, I, Zhang Tianyi, can kill him seven in and seven out alone! Zhang Tianyi looked a little anxious.
"Hehe, Brother Zhao, since my son-in-law has taken a fancy to you, the key is to take a fancy to your talent! And a few days ago, Childe told us that at present, our team is indeed short of one of our own people who can sit on one side of the financial convenience. I look at Brother Zhao's face, words and deeds, as Gongzi said, and the conclusion is that Brother Zhao is a person who can be trusted with confidence! So I'll tell you, my son Chen is the grandson of the contemporary Zhenguo Gong of the Cangdong Empire, and Chen Tianxing, one of the contemporary Cangdong generals, is his father! Zhang Tianyi and I are both generals of the house. I waited to accompany Gongzi to practice for ten years on the top of Hengduan Nanjia Peak in your Xilang, and then I went down the mountain! Therefore, it is this stupid big man who can't speak with a brain, and his own cultivation is already on the ninth grade! In your Xilang Kingdom, this Tianshui City, this palace, how many nine-rank martial arts guards? Not to mention my son-in-law, hehe, you need to do everything you can't necessarily deal with the prince, to save your wife, and think about how to end it afterwards! All this trivial, as long as you are our own people! Then what's so difficult for my son-in-law to level with a sword! Luo Wencheng's concluding speech was the last straw that overwhelmed Zhao Pingping's heart!
"I, I'm willing to join you! Follow Chen Gongzi! It's just that my wife has been abducted for a few days, and it is not clear whether she is alive or dead! Please expedite the process! Let's go, I'll wait to go out to find Chen Gongzi's Ming! As he spoke, he stood up hurriedly and led everyone out of the main hall to find Chen Feng.
The group hurried, and finally saw Chen Feng's figure in a garden to the west. I saw Chen Feng squatting on the ground, squeezing his eyebrows at a little girl as delicate as a porcelain doll, and laughing at the teasing little girl. On the side, a kind-eyed middle-aged woman was looking at the little girl and smiling.
