Chapter 162: Two Confused Persons
In general, these days are still relatively leisurely, Xu Zhou likes this position very much, and no one will say anything if he is fishing brightly. Every day to go to bed early and get up early to be in good health, it's just a little boring, on weekdays, it's nothing more than to clean the courtyard, wipe the pillars with a rag, doors and windows or something, and the rest of the time is to accompany Lao Huang Kan Dashan.
Lao Huang Xu has not been down the mountain for many years, and he is very curious about everything, asking questions, and the two always chatting for a morning or an afternoon, and time flies.
During this period, every night, Ye Wuling would come back, she used to be the only resident of Shanhe Garden, but since she was transferred to Jiang Hongdou's side by Xu Shouren to serve, only the Qinglong envoy was left in the huge Shanhe Garden.
For a few days, Xu Zhou was unfortunate that he had not seen the legendary Lord Qinglong.
Lao Huang's description is: It was a short-tempered and eccentric woman, very difficult to mess with!
Knocking on the side, Xu Zhou also came up with Lao Huang's true identity, which was the uncle of the Qinglong Envoy and the last head of Yuqingguan.
On this day, Xu Zhou still got up early, cleaned the courtyard early in the morning, did not leave a leaf, and then took a rag and began to wipe the columns, Lao Huang is the same as before, sitting on the steps and watching Xu Zhou work, holding a long dry smoking gun in his mouth, swallowing clouds and spitting fog, according to his speed, that pack of tobacco leaves can last for three days at most.
So much so that Xu Zhou suspected that Lao Huang did not flee down the mountain voluntarily.
was driven down the mountain by others, this is completely an old smoker!
Dongdong –
There was a knock on the door in the still-as-usual courtyard.
Lao Huang raised the distance of his feet, but the old man just pretended not to hear, and he didn't even bother to look back.
It was Xu Zhou who put down what he was doing for the time being, ran over and opened the door, and found that it was Zhou Tong.
When he came to the door, he first bowed his hand to Lao Huang Gong to show respect.
Yuqingguan is famous, although Lao Huang is not good at martial arts, but Yuheng is a real Taoist, others don't look at his face, but also look at the face of Lao Daogu.
Then, Zhou Tong pulled Xu Zhou to the corner and handed him many notes.
explained: "This is the above meaning, to speed up the process of undercover mission." All these messages were released to Wei Gonggong. ”
Xu Zhou took a cursory look at the contents of the note, all of them were useful news for the Demon Sect, and if he took it back, it would be a great achievement, but Xu Zhou was still faintly worried.
Anyway, within a few days of coming in, he got such important news, and Wei Gonggong and they are not stupid, so they will definitely be suspicious.
Zhou Tong saw the worried look on Xu Zhou's face, stretched out his hand, and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, they will definitely be suspicious at first, but as long as the news brought back is all true, they will believe it over time." ”
After speaking, the two chatted a few more words, and Zhou Tong left.
After Zhou Tong left, Lao Huang knocked the cigarette residue in the cigarette gun, coughed, spit out a mouthful of old yellow phlegm, pointed the cigarette gun at Xu Zhou, squinted his eyes and laughed dumbly: "You kid is not simple!" ”
Xu Zhou touched the back of his head and pretended to be stupid.
In the eyes of outsiders, he is an ordinary handyman in the Qinglong Hall.
However, Lao Huang Huiyan could see at a glance that Xu Zhou was different from other miscellaneous servants.
Lao Huang didn't hold on to Xu Zhou's identity, he just looked up at the sky, there are some things, it's better not to get involved.
After wiping the pillars, doors and windows, Xu Zhou chose to sit side by side with Lao Huang on the steps.
The two of them, one old and one young, looked up at the sky.
The sky was blue, and birds passed by from time to time.
You sigh, I sigh, the yard sighs.
In the end, Lao Huang couldn't help it first, and glanced at Xu Zhou beside him: "What are you sighing about?" ”
Lao Huang sighed because he sighed about what happened to him in the first half of his life, and he sighed.
Xu Zhou, looking at his young age, a hairy boy, how many things can he experience?
In Lao Huang's heart, he has nothing to sigh about!
Xu Zhou responded: "My life is a little confused. ”
These days are free, and with a lot of time, Xu Zhou likes to think about things and wests.
"Confused?"
"Yes."
Xu Zhou nodded, and when he spoke, he seemed extremely calm, and the word "right" came from the bottom of his heart.
Xu Zhou is really confused now, because there are too many things around him that he wants to decipher, but he lacks skills.
For example, where did Yun Niang go? Why is she hiding it from herself? What does she have to do with the Demon Cult?
As soon as he thought of this, Xu Zhou found that when he lived with Yun Niang before, some things that didn't make sense gradually had a reasonable explanation.
For example, Xu Zhou obviously heard it twice at home, Yun Niang and a woman talking.
But Yun Niang at that time denied it, and now that she thinks about it, that woman should be the cousin of the Bai family, and both of them should have a lot to do with the Demon Sect.
At the beginning, I vaguely heard the words "go to Chang'an County", and after that, the Demon Sect attacked Chang'an County on a large scale, but Ping'an County was intact.
Moreover, why did the ink blocks found at home taste exactly the same as those in the study of the Marquis of Yunyang?
But Xu Zhou had no way to check these, he was afraid that the result would be as bad as he imagined.
In fact, there was another reason why Xu Zhou agreed to be an undercover agent, he didn't tell anyone about this reason, he wanted to rely on his undercover identity to gain the trust of everyone in the Imperial City Division, and when the time was ripe, he could check the file of the Demon Sect's large-scale attack on Chang'an County that day, and at that time, the truth would surface.
Before that, Xu Zhou must be undercover.
In addition to being confused, Xu Zhou is still confused, what does he want?
Isn't it just to have a good life?
A beautiful wife and a beautiful concubine, rich and rival the country!
In fact, Xu Zhou did the same.
He reached an agreement with Xu Fu to jointly develop the chili pepper project, ready to make a lot of money.
But many days passed, and Xu Zhou did not have any contact with the Xu Mansion again.
The agreement seems to be invalid, and Xu Zhou is no longer interested in money.
Lao Huang sat next to Xu Zhou, kept smacking his mouth, spitting out white smoke, Xu Zhou was forced to inhale second-hand smoke, and the taste was not good.
Lao Huang raised his head and sighed leisurely: "Young man, you are still young, what is there to be confused about?" ”
"You don't understand." Xu Zhou waved his hand and was about to get up, but Lao Huang grabbed him and said, "How can I understand if you don't say it?" ”
"Okay, I said I want to be the number one master in the world, can you help me?"
Lao Huang let go of Xu Zhou and let him roll as far as he wanted.
Xu Zhou stood up stupidly and wandered around the courtyard with a broom: "Lao Huang, you said that you and Yuheng Zhenren formed a Taoist couple, how do you two cultivate on weekdays?" Also, according to what you said, your qualifications are very poor and your martial arts are not good, so why did people ask you to form a Taoist couple? Do you want to repay the favor? ”
Lao Huang spit out a few more puffs of white smoke and talked eloquently: "As for how to cultivate, that's it, wanting to die, cough cough cough...... As for why she came to me, on the one hand, it was to repay the favor, and on the other hand, it was because of chance! ”
"Serendichance?!"
"Yes." Lao Huang nodded solemnly: "Boy, do you believe in fate?" ”
Xu Zhou shook his head, obviously not convinced.
Because he is a staunch materialist.
Lao Huang said again: "When she married me, she once asked someone to tell a hexagram, saying that I was her most suitable Taoist partner. ”
Xu Zhou raised his eyebrows and had a constipated expression.
"She won't be deceived, right, what year has it been, and there are still people who believe in fortune telling?"
Xu Zhou can't complain, believing in fortune-telling, it's better to believe in metaphysics.
"The fortune teller is none other than Tianyimen, Wei Dao!"
