Chapter Seventy-Six: Preparations for War

These majestic and elegant official residences, the deep mansions of the family, and the mansions of wealthy merchants all opened his eyes.

In the beginning, he looked around with interest and curiosity everywhere he went. It's the same as the average teenager who hasn't seen much of the market.

Uncle Mole had expected him to have such a demeanor, and he did not scold him.

And Moller Qinghua spent most of her time near the Tiantai Sect, and she didn't go to these places either. She is full of interest and curiosity, similar to Chen De. The two are like a pair of curious babies.

Uncle Moeller took Moeller Qinghua to let her have more contact with different environments, which is good for broadening her horizons.

Although cultivators can say that they can not eat the fireworks of the world when they reach the advanced realm, the further they go, the more the improvement of the realm depends on the monk's comprehension of the Tao.

Monks with a narrow horizon are bound to be unable to better comprehend the various states of the world and the birth and death of all things, and their comprehension of the Tao will naturally be hindered.

After going to these places a few more times, Chen De is no longer a hillbilly who probes his brain and looks around. When Uncle Moeller saw Chen De's transformation, he nodded slightly appreciatively.

As a reserved girl, Mole Qinghua became dignified faster than Chen De.

At this time, Gule City was under the control of Dazhu.

At the beginning, after the Dazhu people captured the ancient music city, there were more than ten days, the Dazhu soldiers were not restrained, and the Dazhu soldiers were like wolves and tigers in the city wantonly burning, killing, plundering, *, making the Dayuan people in the city seem to be in purgatory.

During that time, the Dayuan people in the city lost a huge amount of lives, chastity and property.

Anticipating the war between the two countries, the Tiantai sect had already closed the shops in the city and withdrew its staff. It was only after the situation in the city stabilized that the store was reopened.

In the same way, many businesses have escaped the fighting and returned to resume business.

The Dazhu people didn't want to take the ancient music city after the ancient music city turned into a lifeless city. Because, from the dead city, they have nothing to gain.

After the Dazhu people began to restrain the behavior of the Dazhu soldiers in the city, Gule City began to slowly regain its vitality.

After Uncle Mole took Chen De in and out of so many mansions, Chen De began to slowly become familiar with this big city. Chen De has an excellent sense of direction, plus he has a good memory, and if he has been to a place once, he basically won't get lost there.

In his free time after dinner, Chen De often went out alone to wander around the city, often returning late.

After Mo Le Qinghua and some senior sisters knew that Chen De had this hobby, they often asked Chen De to help buy things on the street.

Most of the things you want to buy are snacks, pastries, melons and fruits, etc., after all, snacks are a hobby for girls.

Rouge gouache and the like, there is basically nothing, most of the girls who cultivate have excellent skin, fine skin and tender meat, and it seems redundant to apply grease and powder.

Every time, before Chen De had been on the street for a quarter of an hour, he began to sweat. Because, at this time, there were several heavy pieces of lead on Chen De's legs and in the vest on his body.

In this way, he used to practice his endurance and weight-bearing capacity while getting acquainted with the environment of the place he visited.

For this reason, before Chen De left the Tiantai Sect, he specially went to the Tianzhi Palace to customize three sets of such clothes.

After a few months of wandering around the city, Chen De basically became familiar with the streets and alleys of Gule City.

He walked with seventy or eighty pounds of lead on his back, and he could still walk like a fly after walking for an hour in a row. At the same time, Chen De's repeated observations finally found a suitable target.

Wei Zule is the hall of the "Da Hongyun" gambling house, helping gamblers redeem chips, buy snacks, pour tea, etc.

His home is far away from the "Great Fortune", his father is no longer there, his mother is weak due to long-term fatigue and can no longer work, and he has a younger brother who is studying at the school. The family's expenses all depend on his salary in "Da Hongyun".

Because "Da Hongyun" is the industry of the Black Dragon Gang, Chen De paid more attention when he passed by, so Chen De saw Wei Zule coming in and out of "Da Hongyun" here. When Chen De was walking around the city, he happened to meet Wei Zule returning home. Therefore, the location of his home is known.

As a caring person, Chen De was near Wei Zule's house and spent a lot of time to find out about Wei Zule.

After inquiry, the surrounding neighbors praised Wei Zule.

In order to raise him and his younger brother, he got up early and sold fruits and vegetables greedily after his father's death, coming and going in the wind and rain, and after a serious illness a few years ago, his body became very weak, very good and very filial. I also take good care of my younger brother who is studying.

Chen De knew that this person was affectionate and righteous. Perhaps, he can help himself, Chen De has a plan in his heart.

On this day, Wei Zule was on the day shift. Wei Zule, who had been running for most of the day in the "Great Fortune", dragged his tired steps back to the vicinity of his home. saw Chen De waiting at the door of his house.

Seeing Chen De, who was slightly older than his younger brother, stopped in front of him, he looked at Chen De with a vigilant look on his face.

Chen De bowed and said, "Brother Wei, can you do me a favor?"

Wei Zule was surprised: "I don't know you, and I don't have time to help you." ”

Chen De naturally did not give up, he looked at Wei Zule's eyes firmly and said, "For Brother Wei, this matter is just a gesture. ”

"It depends on what's going on. ”

"I just wanted to ask Brother Wei about something. ”

Wei Zule looked at Chen De, whose hair was a little sloppy half a head taller than him, and the expression on Fangzheng's face became relaxed. He said, "Tell me what's going on." ”

Chen De saw the people coming and going around them, so he pointed to Wei Zule's door and said to him, "Brother Wei, won't you invite me in?"

Wei Zule was a little reluctant to bring Chen De into his house.

When I entered Wei Zule's house and saw the furnishings in the house, I knew that Wei Zule's family was having a very difficult time. Wei Zule's mother was busy in the kitchen, preparing Wei Zule's dinner.

Wei Zule said in a cold voice: "Who are you, what is the matter, you can say it." ”

Chen De didn't mind Wei Zule's attitude, he said directly: "My surname is Chen, and I want to ask Brother Wei about the Black Dragon Gang. ”

Hearing this, Wei Zule glanced at the young man who was half a head taller than him seriously, with a hint of surprise on his face, and he opened his mouth: "I don't know you, and I don't want to help you!"

"The Black Dragon is helping to abuse the Black Dragon, is it possible that Brother Wei is bent on maintaining the Black Dragon Gang because he works in the gambling house under their name?" asked Chen De.

Hearing this, Wei Zule was stunned. Chen De's words stirred up strong emotions hidden in the deepest part of his heart.

What Chen De didn't know was that Wei Zule had a younger sister who was very moving.

During the period when the Dazhu people captured Gule City, his sister was taken away by several Dazhu soldiers, and her whereabouts are still unknown, and she has not seen anyone alive or dead.

His mother's health, which had improved slightly, was even weaker because of this.

Working in Dahongyun, he had already guessed that the Black Dragon Gang was working for the Dazhu people, although he was disgusted, but for the sake of his family's livelihood, he had to force a smile to stay in the Dahongyun Gambling House.

Wei Zule looked at this young man with messy hair and Sven appearance, who seemed to hide amazing strength. Based on his experience in the gambling house and the fact that he has seen all kinds of people, he vaguely feels that the young man in front of him must be a few years younger than him, and he is a little different.

Wei Zule, who is accustomed to seeing people in Dahongyun, naturally does not be a good person, since Chen De is so direct, he also said to Chen De bluntly: "I will not help you for no reason." ”

Chen De was stunned for a moment, and then understood the other party's voice.

Glancing around at the Wei family's furnishings, Chen De did not hesitate, he took out a gold leaf and handed it directly to Wei Zule.

Wei Zule looked at the thing in front of him that emitted a faint golden light, and said in astonishment: "Gold?"

Originally, he only thought that it would be good to provide information to the person in front of him and get a reward of dozens of copper coins. This piece of gold leaf, exchanged for silver, is enough to be exchanged for a dozen taels, which is a huge amount of money for the Wei family.

Some time ago, Chen De went in and out of many luxurious homes with Uncle Moeller. Uncle Moeller exchanged the red-backed gull for a lot of gold leaf, not silver.

There are a lot of gold leaves in Chen De's hands. At the beginning, Chen De was still counting the gold leaves in his hand with great interest. Later, more and more gold leaves were distributed, but Chen De couldn't count them.

The Wei family is currently very short of money, because there is not enough money for diagnosis and medicine, Wei Zule's mother's illness has not been able to get rid of it, and her health has not been good.

This became a big stone in Wei Zule's heart. His younger brother's education, tuition fees and other expenses were not a small amount for him.

This money, for the Wei family, is a charcoal in the snow. Wei Zule's eyes were filled with tears.

After calming down for a while, Wei Zule said to Chen De sincerely and enthusiastically: "Brother Chen, if you want to know anything, I will tell you what I know!"

Chen De then carefully inquired about the situation of the Black Dragon Gang, where the main altar of the Black Dragon Gang was located, how many industries it had, the names of the leaders, the number of people, and so on.

After all, Wei Zule was just a walk-in in the gambling house under the name of the Black Dragon Gang, and he didn't know many of the inside information of the Black Dragon Gang. He couldn't answer many of Chen De's questions.

Wei Zule, who was a little ashamed in his heart, started to use his brain, and he took the initiative to tell Chen De what he knew, but Chen De didn't ask.

In this way, the conversation between the two becomes lively and lengthy. After Wei's mother came to urge Wei Zule to eat twice, Wei Zule basically told Chen De everything he knew and guessed about the Black Dragon Gang.

Looking at the vigorous back of the young man who had left and vaguely guessed that something big was going to happen, Wei Zule suddenly remembered someone. He stopped Chen De: "Brother Chen, please wait." ”

With a hint of surprise, Chen De turned around and said, "Brother Wei, what's the matter?"

"I think of a person, a cousin of mine, who works as a handyman in the Black Dragon Gang's Dragon Martial Arts Pavilion. ”

Chen De's eyes lit up, and then he asked cautiously, "How is your cousin?"

Hearing Chen De's words, Wei Zule naturally knew Chen De's scruples, and he said with certainty: "My cousin is honest, and some people in the Black Dragon Gang like to bully him. ”
