Chapter 22: The Great Sword and the Sweetness
"Recently, the rat altar master has been very close to Xiao Gongzi, and he often shushes him and asks for warmth."
Zhou Mi said worriedly.
As soon as he heard Rat Yi's name, Hu Feng became alert, "Oh, he's back?" ”
"You know, why did he go to find Xiao He, what was the matter?"
"The master of the rat altar used the matter of pulling out Lu Jia and seeking justice for Xiao Gongzi before, as a bridge, and contacted Xiao Gongzi, under the pretext of being close, and the two are now called brothers," Zhou Mi yawned and replied helplessly.
"The specific situation of the rat altar master, his subordinates are not very clear."
"Ha~~"
Zhou Mi yawned, tears coming out of the corners of his eyes.
"Xiao Gongzi is picky from time to time, and his subordinates are dizzy just busy with his work, and they can't even follow him around the clock, where can they take care of other things."
"It was also Qin, who came to the rat altar in the past two days, and his subordinates found out."
"That's it," Hu Feng was a little uncomfortable, after all, Xiao He was pushed by him to change the topic carefully, without a trace, "Wang Shen, the commander, has been lax recently, and the traces of Rat Yi can't be detected clearly. ”
"It's no wonder that the king is in charge, after all, the rat altar master also has a group of rat guards, and the king is probably not in a hurry." Zhou Mi exonerated Wang Shen.
"This can't be done, seeing that the time for the event is approaching, there can't be any uncontrollable existence, and there will be a difference," Hu Feng shook his head and said.
"This Xiao He is a slippery person, this is to please both parties, and the left and right are the source."
Hu Feng had already made up his mind that he would beat Wang Shen well later, and talked about Xiao He's matter again.
"This rat really has bad intentions, he hasn't given up yet, and he's still trying to pull Xiao He into his camp."
"Hmm," Zhou Mi also nodded in agreement with Hu Feng's words, Xiao He was able to get the invitation of the Dharma King himself, and his importance was self-evident.
"That's true, although Xiao Gongzi is tossing and turning, he also has some skills."
"Ability? Hehe~"
Hu Feng couldn't help but smile and shook his head.
"Well, yes, the ability, the ability that the subordinates said is that Xiao Gongzi made the rat altar master taste the sweetness. Now the rat altar master is like a bee that has seen honey, and has been surrounding Xiao Gongzi, but not only because of Xiao Gongzi's identity. ”
Zhou Mi didn't yawn either, with a serious face, he thought that this matter had been obvious that Xiao He was slowly leaning towards Rat Yi, which was very unfavorable to them, and Hu Tan mainly paid attention to it.
"Sweetness?" Hu Feng was puzzled, Xiao He had been placed under house arrest, and the rat Yi might not be able to see the general benefits, which could be called sweetness and make the rat's heart move. It doesn't look ordinary, and I can't help but look at Zhou Mi with a solemn face.
"Yes, sweet, Xiao He came up with an idea to make Rat Yi make a lot of money."
Zhou Mi remembered that Rat Yi was happy to thank Xiao He, gave him a good idea, and made a lot of money, while Xiao He looked disinterested and disapproving, and even a little disdainful.
"Make money? What's the idea? Hu Feng asked suspiciously.
"The nightclub enlarges the sword," Zhou Mi saw that Hu Feng was puzzled, so he explained, that is, to use the character of the gentleman to hunt for curiosity, and to dress up the woman as a rabbit spirit, fox essence, cat spirit, etc., accompanied by singing, dancing, drinking, and by the way, a big health care.
"It's as simple as that?" Hu Feng hesitated, he felt that no matter how deep the city government was, he couldn't manage the expression on his face, it was really related to Xiao He, everything was strange.
"Yes, it's that simple, at that time, Xiao Gongzi and the rat altar master were discussing how to communicate with the gentlemen, and they said it casually, and then the rat altar master tried it, and it really worked." Zhou Mi said with emotion.
"Now it seems that Xiao He is not just a gentleman, after all, he is still the son of Jiangning's goddess of wealth, and he has inherited his mother's business talent."
Hu Feng lit the table, thought for a while, and suddenly spoke, "That, do you know where it is?" ”
"Huh? That one? Oh! Zhou Mi immediately woke up to who Hu Feng was talking about.
"I heard that the Lord of the Rat Altar took that one there, and he has been staying there."
"Okay, I didn't expect Rat Yi to use a crooked and evil method to stammer, to please that one, hum~"
Hu Feng hammered down the table hatefully.
"Altar master, we need to pay more attention to the rat altar master, now the rat altar master has the support of that person, and he wants money and money, we are in a very bad situation, maybe ......"
Zhou Mi solemnly told the current situation.
"Has the altar owner ever believed in the Dharma King, the rat altar master is so reckless and reckless, and does not listen to orders, does the Dharma King ignore it, and the rat altar master is so disregarding the overall situation, it may affect the smooth progress of the holy monument ceremony."
Hu Feng found a letter from the pile of old papers on the table, handed it to Zhou Mi, and said with a lonely expression, "Take a look." ”
Zhou Mi wondered why Hu Feng showed such an expression, looking at the envelope in his hand, could it be ......
This is an ordinary envelope, but in the lower right corner of the letter, two simple strokes are drawn with a brush, like a child's essay, faintly like a mirror, this is the secret mark of the Holy Religion.
He carefully took out the letter paper and read it word by word:
"If you have something important, return to the general altar, treat Xiao Gongzi well, don't disobey Xu Gongzi, and pay close attention to the affairs of the saint."
There were few numbers in the letter, but it showed an unusual meaning, Zhou Mi looked shocked and looked at Hu Feng, "This, is it ......?"
Hu Feng smiled bitterly, "Yes, the Holy Son was killed in a dispute with the government not long ago when he was preaching for the Holy Sect, and although that one is unbearable, he is still the son of the Holy Venerable, and the Holy Venerable is old, even if the Holy Daughter appears this time and continues her life, it is estimated that it will not last long." Obviously, the arrival of that person this time is that the Holy Venerable has sought qualifications for him, sent credit, and has made him his successor. ”
"Then we ......," Zhou Mi was about to ask.
"Altar master, the villain has something important to see," the servant shouted outside the door.
"Okay, this matter, since the Dharma King has sent a letter, we will follow it, and try not to conflict with the rats," Hu Feng whispered to Zhou Mi, and then turned his head and shouted outside, "Come in!" ”
"What's the matter," Hu Feng asked.
"Xiao Gongzi, I'm looking for Master Zhou everywhere," the subordinate lowered his head and hurriedly replied.
"Okay, I know, do you know what Xiao Gongzi is looking for?" Hu Feng shook his head when he saw his subordinates, saying that he didn't know, so he asked him to go out first.
Zhou Mi guessed what was going on, and shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly.
"That Xiao Gongzi is not a fuel-efficient lamp, I guess I have already guessed something, you should disclose the matter appropriately and try his reaction, but there is no need to rush for a while, the most important thing now is the Holy Monument Ceremony, which can be completed together with the Holy Monument Ceremony, then it will be fine." Hu Feng waited until the next person went out, and reminded Zhou Mi.
"The subordinates understand, retreat first, and the subordinates will definitely strive for Xiao Gongzi to stand on our side," Zhou Mi patted Hu Feng on the chest and assured.
"Well, I'm relieved that you're doing things, I'm tired." Hu Feng nodded, watching Zhou Mi salute and leave.
Zhou Mi hurried back to the garden, thinking carefully along the way about how to make Xiao He willingly join the Holy Sect, and to be able to stand in the position of the Lord of the Hu Altar and suppress Rat Yi with them.
"Stop, no entry in front."
Two gray-clad members stretched out their hands to stop Zhou Mi.
"Huh?" Zhou Mi wondered, although Hu Feng also sent people to 'protect' Xiao He, how dare they stop him.
Zhou Mi raised his head, and the dazzling gray suddenly woke up, this is the rat guard, could it be that the rat is here again, but what about the fox guard who originally 'protected' Xiao He.
Zhou Mi looked around and found that those fox guards were tied, covered their mouths, and thrown into the corner.
"Oh, it turned out to be Master Zhou, I'm sorry, no one can enter the courtyard today."
The rat guard who stopped Zhou Mi seemed to recognize Zhou Mi and said lazily.
Zhou Mi frowned for a while, Rat Yi had also brought people here before, but the two guards had never clashed, "Why is this, why did you tie up the fox guards, and you treat the Holy Sect brothers like this." ”
"They offended people who shouldn't be offended, so ......," the Rat Guard said disdainfully, pouting, glancing.
"You ......" Zhou Mi was about to have a seizure, and was suddenly stunned.
'Why is there a son peeping at Xiao He's courtyard gate? He's the so-called big guy? ’
A young man dressed in a white silk robe was leaning sideways through the crack in the door and peeking into the courtyard. Brother Gongzi was pale, with droopy bags under his eyes, and he looked like he was overly wine-colored, and a big red silk flower was obliquely inserted on his head.
There were also several subordinates dressed in gray coarse cloth around the perimeter.
Zhou Mi wanted to enter, but the rat guards refused to let him, and when he was pushing, the pale boy heard the quarrel, turned his head and glared at Zhou Mi angrily, and motioned to several gray-clothed rat guards behind him to control Zhou Mi in the past.
"What are you going to do?" Zhou Mi saw that he was surrounded by rat guards, and he faced off nervously.
"The Holy Envoy has something important, in order to prevent anyone from disturbing him, he can only grieve Lord Zhou, please bear with me," although the Rat Wei said politely, he was proud.
"Holy Messenger?"
Zhou Mi couldn't help but shrink his eyes, and then he remembered the identity of a son.
'Ah~ I just talked to Lord Hu Tan about this person, the second son of the Holy Venerable, Xu Qian. ’
'Just how could he be here?' ’
‘…… And sneaky, sneaky, hiding outside Xiao He's courtyard to peep. ’
Since he came here, the rat guy has been like a shark smelling blood, and he has been entangled in it all at once, and under the advice of Xiao Gongzi, he has done what he likes, and the rat altar master can quickly gain this person's trust. ’
It's just that I've always heard that the owner of the rat altar took him to the clubhouse, playing with the wind and the moon, and he couldn't think about it. ’
I have heard of it, but I have never seen it. ’
"Brother Xiao, can you live here with peace of mind?" A shrill voice came from inside the courtyard.
Zhou Mi frowned, and looked at Xu Qian, who was eavesdropping, suspiciously, "This is the voice of Rat Yi, what are they thinking?" ”
"It's not bad, there are rockeries and ponds here, the scenery is good, and the mood is happy," Xiao He's lazy voice sounded, with a regretful tone.
"It's just...... The fly in the ointment, the elm head of Zhou Mi, not to mention the lack of progress in craftsmanship, and the procrastination of doing things......"
"You see, Ben Gongzi has sent someone to look for him since the morning, and he hasn't seen anyone until now......"
"I know that I'm lazy every day, and I'm just......"
