Volume 1 The Family Chapter 100 "The Carriage" 2nd Watch Ask for Tickets!
At the same time as the exhibition is underway, Nuku City, a lakeside.
The houses here are all properties under the name of the puppet gate, and the local people are afraid of the puppet door and dare not approach it easily, so this place has always been quiet. Today, however, it is uncharacteristically noisy.
I saw several teams of men and horses driving several carriages into a side courtyard. It's just that it's a remote place, with only a narrow dirt road, and because it rained last night, the road is muddy. The people and horses in charge of transportation sometimes push carts, sometimes pull them, which really takes a lot of effort.
In the courtyard, a group of guards finally transported these carriages into the hospital, and they were so tired that they couldn't breathe. Although the lights are a little dim, it is still not difficult to distinguish that these carriages are the ones who came with Cui Yijia that day!
Several men laboriously took off the horse harness, and when they were tied to the horses, they were all tired and sweaty, and lay directly on the mud floor in the courtyard.
"Lu Yu, that old bastard! It was obvious that he asked us to deal with this matter together, but it was good for him to show his face in front of Huang Feng, and the drudgery would be handed over to us. A thin man looked rather resentful.
"Forget it, he is an elder of the sect after all, so we can't say anything." A fat man next to him who was in charge of the lead wiped his forehead and persuaded.
The thin man knew that what the fat man said was reasonable, but as soon as he saw that he was dressed in good clothes and was covered with mud stains, he became angry and scolded: "Elder? Phew! This old Wang Ba, how did he become an elder of the sect? If you have nothing to do, you will show your face, and if you have something, you will disappear, and when you are done, you will come up to check on him! The merit is that he has a good leadership, and if there is one, it is our officers, I will fuck it! ”
"Alas, no way, who told us not to have him? Forget it. "The fat man is also helpless, ask for more instructions, report more, and sleep with less work. But who made the old bastard an elder?
"Uncle Wang, what are you afraid of him doing? What if he is an elder? What a fool! I'll ask my father to talk to the head of the house, transfer you over, and save Lao Wang from robbing you every day! The thin man scolded.
As soon as Fat Wang heard this, he was also angry, elder bullshit! He is also the peak of Jiuyao Realm, and he has been working hard for so many years, if it weren't for Lu Yu's obstruction, he would have risen a long time ago, and he still needs to do this errand?
What made him even more angry was that this time he escorted the carriage for the Cui family, which was a very important matter, and the head of Huang Tsuka ordered him three times, and he must not be careless, otherwise he would not have asked Huang Feng to come down to supervise it. Lu Yu, the old clump, not only played tricks, but even the meeting gift he prepared for Huang Feng was said to be handled by him. But the county officials are not as good as the current management, and they can't do anything about it.
But now there is a chance, this thin man's father is the hall master! He is also a prince in the sect, and he is not afraid of an elder at all. Backers can be found, and of course opportunities cannot be missed.
"Fuck! Lao Tzu has endured him for a long time! How do you say? Wang Fatzi asked.
"The old bastard is playing tricks, he Huang Feng is not a good bird, why should they enjoy our sin? I invite you brothers to Lichun Courtyard to have fun? The thin man said.
When everyone heard this, they immediately came to their senses, but then they wilted again, this time the errand was ordered by the head of the house himself, if it was a business trip, then ......
"I said, what are you afraid of? Who dares to come to our puppet gate? Besides, with my father here, even Huang Feng didn't dare to do anything to me, if there was something to make my father push the matter on Lu Yu's head. ”
When everyone heard this, they felt that this was indeed the case, and they were immediately excited. Wang Fatzi was a little hesitant, tonight's errand can't be missed.
But he couldn't stand everyone, and Wang Fatzi could only nod. But in the end, Wang Fatzi is still thoughtful. Fortunately, the puppet gate attaches great importance to this matter, except for Lu Yu of the Eight Extremes Realm, the sixty people sent by the puppet sect to escort the carriage tonight are all from the Jiuyao Realm, and everyone has a puppet, so he ordered everyone to release all the puppets. In this way, sixty puppets who are more than the Nine Yao Realm protect each other, and no one dares to act rashly. In addition, Lichun Courtyard is not far from here, and the puppets are fighting with people, and they can sense that they can also rush back immediately.
As everyone made hand seals, their chests fluctuated like ripples, and then, a hideous human head made of animal bones and fine iron emerged, and with a burst of dust, sixty skeleton soldiers who seemed to be wearing iron armor were arranged in a column, guarding the carriage in the middle. The horses tethered to the stables were terrified.
This is the puppet gate standard puppet, Huangquan Guard! These Huangquan guards were all covered with dark bloodstains, and they could still smell the bloody breath when they were separated by more than ten zhang, obviously after many fights. The skull-like structure, the tall figure, in this dim courtyard, has a terrifying aura.
With the urging of everyone, the puppets opened their red eyes one after another, like a group of evil ghosts from the Yellow Spring, began to patrol the courtyard, such a scene, if the timid people suddenly broke in, I was afraid that before the puppet could do it, he would be scared half to death.
As everyone left, apart from the slightest sound of the horses in fear, there was only the heavy, slow, rhythmic footsteps of the Huangquan guards as they marched.
After a long time, the horses gradually adapted to the scene of the Huangquan guards' patrols, and fell silent, and the only thing left in the courtyard was the monotonous footsteps of the Huangquan guards' patrol feet. I don't know how long later, an inconspicuous water stain suddenly rippled, and a clear liquid like gelatinous slowly emerged, and then it had the potential to turn into a human form.
"Click!"
The Huangquan guards all stopped, their joints sounded in unison, and they all looked at the comer.
In the midst of this lightning and fire, the man raised his head, and his gaze quickly touched the Yellow Spring Guards one by one, and in an instant, the scarlet eyes of the sixty Yellow Spring Guards all dimmed. Seeing that all the guards of Huangquan were out of order, the mysterious man narrowed his eyes, and he was still more than ten feet away from the carriage, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of a carriage like a ghost.
"Ten thousand organs?" The mysterious man looked at the carriage and saw that there was a mark on the door of the carriage, which was the Qingyang County Wanjia in the Tiansheng Empire. Since it is from the hands of the Wan family, even the martial artists of the Eight Extremes Realm are helpless for a while, and the forcible destruction will inevitably make the owner of the horse car feel something.
Under the clouds and the moon, I saw the face of the mysterious person, which was the flower-eyed man Mu Jingxi met that day. The flower-eyed man did not forcibly break the mechanism, only to see that his body was slowly illusory, and when he recovered, he was already in the carriage. It's just that his expression is quite surprised at this moment.
Nothing!
This carriage, which is protected by tens of thousands of organs and guarded by the puppet gate, is actually empty!
Puzzled, the flower-eyed man's heart moved, and then the air in the other nineteen carriages was also floating, and people appeared at the same time, all of them were flower-eyed men.
"It's all empty? Could it be ...... Just bait? ”
The flower-eyed man peeked out of the car and was puzzled. He has been in the military for many years, and he is a scout, and with many years of experience, he is far from being comparable to ordinary spies. If someone sees through it like this and tricks it to this place with bait, the scheming of the people behind it is too terrible!
"What's wrong?" A voice suddenly sounded in the ear of the flower-eyed man.
But the flower-eyed man didn't look shocked, just seemed to mumble to the air: "Strange thing, there is nothing in the carriage." ”
"Oh?" The voice was also a little surprised.
"Before, I thought that the little girl should want to pretend to be a business traveler to participate in the exhibition and transport silver taels in a carriage, but now don't say silver taels, not even a copper child."
"Could it be a disguise?"
"It's unlikely, what is most lacking over there now is precious metals, according to the information received, she is urged to arrive within five days, even if she doesn't send gold and silver, she should get some gold and silver." The flowery man said.
"Could it be that she folded it into a silver ticket and brought it with her?"
"No, the silver ticket can't be cashed when it arrives, don't forget the situation over there, isn't it...... Am I really being tricked? Hua Mei Nan couldn't believe it, to say that the mastermind behind the scenes was superb, he believed above him, but the first step in the plan was the collection of intelligence.
That is to say, even those temple advisers, if they do not have enough information, they are deaf and blind, and it is difficult to defeat a person with mediocre intelligence but a huge information network, which is the inevitable result of information asymmetry. As for the information network, Hua Mei Man is confident, and in the Tiansheng Empire, I am afraid that few people can compare with him.
After thinking for a moment, Hua Mei Nan looked at the carriage again for a moment, and Hua Mei Nan bent down and looked at the wheels of the carriage. I saw that on this wheel, a layer of leather was tightly wrapped! Even if you have wealth, you must not be so extravagant, right? With a slight tap, the wheels made a crisp sound.
The flower-eyed man stretched out his index finger, and the spiritual power swirled around it, pressed it on the wheel, and then withdrew, only to see a thin filament from his fingertips, which was actually red and purple in the moonlight.
"So it was so that each carriage had four wheels, two inches wide and one inch thick, five feet in diameter, and thirty-two hubs one inch in diameter...... Good fellow, no wonder it must be covered with leather, otherwise it will make a sound that people will see through, and the wheels alone are more than 25,000 taels of gold! The flower-eyed man said.
"What? Is the carriage made of gold? How can a horse pull? ”
"Hehe, that's not true, I think only the axle is too, but it's scary enough." The flower-eyed man said, and at the same time reached out and pressed it back, and the wheels were the same as before.
"Then I understand, you and I have been separated for a long time, come back first, exchange information, and then make a decision." The voice said again.
"Okay, how are you over there?" The flower-eyed man asked.
At the exhibition site, a man sitting in the corner took a sip of tea, looked at Mu Jingxi in the distance, and said meaningfully: "It's very interesting." ”
Looking at his appearance, he is also a flower-eyed man!
