Chapter 50: Chaos
Gangbuk Province Jiedu made Canghe Nan die.
This news was like a boulder falling into the water, alarming the entire Jiangbei Province, whether it was the rivers and lakes or the temples, there were undercurrents surging at this moment.
Even the emperor summoned the prime minister overnight to discuss countermeasures.
Strangely, however, no will was given afterwards.
Later, only a few words came out of the eunuch's mouth, and that sentence was.
"Then let's make Jiangbei Province chaotic."
In fact, within a few days, Gangbuk Province was indeed in chaos.
Seeing that the capital did not react, several powerful ministers under Canghe Nan all thought carefully and began to fight over who should be the envoy of the festival.
In the end, they reached an agreement, whoever avenges the marshal first will be the envoy of this section and be in charge of Jiangbei Province.
If you want to say that Xu Mo is dead, who are they looking for revenge?
Isn't there a Taoist priest here?
Coming to Jinyuan City with Xu Mo, if you are not the mastermind, you are also an accomplice.
So the center of gravity of this Tan Chaoshui began to revolve around Li Jiu'an.
......
"Hey, boss, if you catch that Taoist priest, you'll get rich."
Jeju County, Kelai Tavern.
Wang Si respectfully poured wine for a strong man with a meaty face, and said with a longing at the same time.
"Don't take me with your mother's death." The strong man slapped Wang Si on the head with a slap, making a crisp sound.
"Are we able to deal with such strongmen, what, do you think that there are only a few guards of the Shangjie Degree Envoy who can compare with us?"
Wang Si's face was full of grievances, even if he was slapped, he had to cover the wine jug with both hands and not dare to let the wine spill out.
"That's the number." Wang Si cautiously stretched out his hand and gestured.
"Damn."
When the strong man saw Wang Si's gesture, he was obviously moved, and his eyes showed a greedy gaze, but he quickly endured it.
"Lao Tzu said that if you don't do it, you won't do it, unless the Taoist priest of his mother sends it to the door himself."
After speaking, the strong man picked up the wine glass and dried it down, and then put the wine glass on the table.
"Pour wine for Lao Tzu."
"Huh? What do you see, you kid wants to rebel? ”
Seeing that Wang Si didn't move, the strong man looked up and found that Wang Si was looking at the door of the tavern with a dull gaze, so he also followed his gaze.
This, isn't this the fucking Taoist priest?
Wang Si came back to his senses and said excitedly to the strong man: "Boss, isn't this the way..."
"Smack!"
But he was slapped in the head again, and he beat the second half of the sentence back.
The strong man's eyes widened, Lao Tzu just said, if you lure the killing star over, I want you to look good.
But that's how it happened.
Li Jiuan walked into the tavern and took a look, and saw that only these two people were drinking, so he walked straight over and sat down.
"You two are disturbed..."
"Ah no, don't bother, don't bother, don't bother, just say what the Taoist chief has to say."
The strong man pressed Wang Si's head with one hand to prevent him from speaking, and said with a smile.
Li Jiuan was a little surprised, this person looked fierce and vicious, he didn't expect to speak so well, and he couldn't help but sigh.
It's still a small place, and the people are simple.
Li Jiuan separated from Liu Fei and went to Cangshan alone.
At first, he still took the official road, but he didn't expect to encounter many attacks by people who wanted to avenge the festival along the way.
It's as annoying as flies.
So he took the trail and resupplied his way through the village, and finally had a lot less trouble.
However, there is also a disadvantage, that is, it is easy to take the wrong road, so I found this small county town and wanted to find someone in the city to inquire.
When he was at the city gate, he also made a special observation, and there was no portrait of him on the billboard, so it should be that the news had not yet reached this remote place.
Thinking of this, Li Jiuan called Xiao Er and ordered a table to eat.
"Whatever you want to eat, just order more."
"No, no, no, no need to be a Taoist, we are full, you can eat and leave us alone."
The strong man hurriedly refused, ignoring Wang Si's resentful eyes.
Boss, you are full of food and drink, I have been serving you patronizing and haven't eaten yet.
Li Jiuan sighed again, what a good person.
"That poor Dao does have a question that I would like to ask the two of you. I just don't know how to go to Diancang Mountain? ”
"Dao Chang wants to go to Cangshan?" The strong man was stunned for a moment, "That Dao chief, you are going in the wrong direction, and you are going in the opposite direction." ”
Li Jiuan's expression suddenly became amused after hearing this.
"How do you know that the poor way is going the other way? Could it be that the layman knows the poor way? ”
The strong man knew that he was speechless, and nervously pressed Wang Si's hands and squeezed them hard.
"This tavern is close to the West Gate, and you must have come in from the West Gate, and that Cangshan Mountain is just to the west of Jeju County, so the boss said that you are going the other way."
"Yes, yes, exactly."
The strong man let go of the hand that was pressing Wang Si, and saw that he was also much more pleasing to the eye, but he didn't expect this kid to be a little anxious.
"Oh, I see."
The Taoist priest had a look of sudden realization on his face, and then he was a little embarrassed.
"Recently, Poor Dao has had some trouble, so I'm afraid that it won't be good if I misunderstand the layman." Then the conversation changed again.
"The layman won't lie to me, will he?"
The strong man's heart that had just been put down suddenly hung up again, and when he heard Li Jiu'an ask him, he hurriedly answered.
"The villain's reputation can be inquired, and the neighbors in the street have said that they will definitely not lie to the chief."
At this time, the food also came up, and Li Jiuan picked up the wine jug on his waist and filled the wine glass on the table.
"Then it's going to be a problem."
......
Diancang Mountain, Shangyang Village.
The once bustling and lively village is now silent.
At this moment, the villagers are walking in the mountain road, carrying light luggage as much as possible, trying to escape from this place as soon as possible.
Although there is a lot of reluctance, there is nothing to be done.
The village chief walked at the end of the crowd, constantly urging the naughty doll.
"Xu Yi, you take good care of your mother, she has a bad leg."
"Erwa, be careful if you are naughty again, I will beat you with a cane."
"And you, you can't escape, make you laugh."
Recently, it has been peaceful for decades, and the dolls in the village have not gone through the days of fighting and fleeing for their lives, which is a bit inappropriate, which is exactly when he needs to teach a lesson, and he can't be soft.
Suddenly, there was a loud roar from the nearby forest.
The old village chief immediately reacted, this was the cry of Canglu, which also meant that those thieves had chased after him.
"Run!"
The old village chief shouted, but his footsteps did not move at all.
He knew that what he couldn't escape would only be a burden, and it was better to stay and delay a little time than to run away with them and drag them down.
Dozens of others remained with him.
They were all old guys, but they were also the best hunters in the village when they were young.
The old fellows smiled at each other and stood side by side in the middle of the mountain road, looking at the chasing thieves with fearlessness in their eyes.
Just when they thought they were about to be submerged, a sudden wind blew up, blowing up countless dead branches of grass and trees.
And when the wind stopped, the thieves who chased after them found that there was no one in front of them.
