Chapter 035 [Undercurrent Anxi]

I'm Liu Bei.

When he got up and left the club, the fake wizard and the hooligan in Aunt Mei's mouth happened to be about to leave the club. I thought about it for a while and followed. "There's a deal, do you want to do it?"

The hooligan stared at me carefully, and said unkindly, "The asking price here is not cheap. ”

I secretly thought that there were still dozens of taels of gold in my baggage, and it would definitely be enough to deal with him. Immediately said: "The thing is very simple, how much do you drive, I don't make a counteroffer." ”

"Refreshing! Follow down. The rascal replied happily, and the previous unfriendliness disappeared and became very enthusiastic. Follow him around and around until he finally comes to a broken courtyard.

As soon as he entered the hospital, the hooligan shouted: "Two dogs! Your big brother and I'm back. ”

Seeing that there was no reaction in the house, the hooligan said: "There is wine and meat, if you want to eat, you will come out, and if it is late, it will be gone." ”

The sound of footsteps immediately came to mind in the house, the door opened, and a person who looked like a beggar rushed out, looking honest, and greeted the hooligan and said happily: "Boss Xu, you are back." What about wine and meat? ”

The hooligan stretched out his hand and scolded: "You know how to eat." If there is business coming to the door, entertain it. So saying, he entered the house.

I was beckoned to sit on a stone mat in the courtyard. When Boss Xu came out of the house again, he had already changed into clean clothes, his hair was trimmed, and although his appearance was not handsome, he was also considered to have good facial features, and he was nearly thirty years old.

"What's the matter? Go ahead! Boss Xu said while holding his trouser belt.

"I have two brothers working in the county government, what you have to do is very simple, just bring them here."

Boss Xu touched his chin, his eyes flashed, and he quickly stretched out a palm. "Five taels of gold!"

"Wow! So much. Ergou said: "It's just to call people out, I'm afraid I won't do it if I want so many guests." ”

Boss Xu glared at Ergou angrily and said to me, "How is it?" As I said beforehand, the asking price is not cheap. ”

The second dog was about to speak, but when he was glared at by Boss Xu, he withered.

Five taels of gold is definitely a lot of money for ordinary people, but for me it is a piece of cake. The matter is urgent, even if it is clear that he will be slaughtered, he can't help it. "When will I see people?" I took out a piece of gold cake of five taels from my baggage and threw it on the stone mat.

When Boss Xu saw that Qian's eyes were open, he immediately instructed Ergou: "You go and do it, I'm tired and go to sleep for a while." ”

"Oh!" The second dog was discharged from the hospital as promised.

I watched in amazement as Ergou flew away, and he didn't even ask who he was looking for.

"Stupid!" Boss Xu scolded and didn't call him back. Ask, "What kind of person are you looking for?" ”

I replied briefly: "Guan Yu, red face, long beard, tall." The other is named Zhang Fei, with big eyes and a black face and tiger whiskers. They are all about the same age as me. ”

Xu Laodao: "If they are in the county office, they can see each other in a quarter of an hour (half an hour)." ”

I reminded, "Also, I don't want to see anyone else. ”

"No problem." Boss Xu suddenly exclaimed, "Where's the golden cake?" He roared angrily: "Ergou, I want to kill your whole family!"

I wandered around the yard and noticed that although the yard was dilapidated, there were few people around, and there was only one road leading to the yard. No matter what accident happens, you can jump over the wall in advance and escape into the scattered houses.

A quarter of an hour later, Boss Xu arrived with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. It was very happy to see each other, and in order to use this courtyard to speak, he gave Boss Xu a piece or two of gold and asked him to go out for a walk. Guan Zhang and I were talking in the courtyard.

Guan Zhang first talked about their experience. After Changshan broke up, they rushed to Anxi County non-stop and were warmly welcomed by the outgoing county magistrate. After three days, there was no trace of me, and he was ready to rush to Zhuocheng. It happened that there was a big crime in the city, and the city gates were closed, and they were not opened until today. Guan Zhang was packing up and preparing to go to Zhuocheng, and Boss Xu arrived.

I recounted in detail the experience of more than ten days in Zhuocheng, and after Guan Zhang heard about He Jin's conspiracy, Zhang Fei shouted and went to tear up the Huang Gai brothers.

When I talked about the succession of the Mo family, Guan Zhangjun was very excited, and he couldn't wait to immediately pull me to Chang'an to succeed him. In the end, when I said that I would give up the Anxi County Order and return to the canyon to develop, Guan Zhang's expression immediately changed.

Guan Yu took out a bamboo slip from his arms and handed it to me. The bamboo slip reads: If you want the Gan sisters and brothers to be fine, take the holy decree to replace them.

There is no signature after the bamboo slip.

Without waiting for me to ask, Zhang Fei couldn't wait to say: "This bamboo slip was sent by a child, and my second brother and I have already checked it, and the child has no background." During the secret investigation, it was found that Anxi County had gathered a lot of gangsters, and they had already filled the inns in various streets. ”

Listening to Zhang Fei say this, I feel that Anxi County is far from being as peaceful as I saw at noon. There are at least N forces lurking here, N>2.

I said, "This is very strange. Jian Yong said that the Gan sisters and brothers were not in Zhang Courtyard. If he was really taken captive, he could only be done by the ten permanent servants. Those sudden gangsters may be related to the Ten Standing Servants. ”

Zhang Fei asked: "How can you be sure that the matter of the sister-in-law is the behavior of the ten permanent servants?" ”

Dizzy! When I see the woman next to me, I call it sister-in-law!

"The bamboo slip says to exchange the holy decree for people. Explain what they know about the Divine Decree. There are only two groups of people in this world who know about this, He Jin and Shi Chang. Since it wasn't He Jin who did it, it could only be done by a group of ten permanent servants. ”

Zhang Fei shook his head and said: "The Ten Standing Servants have not shown up so far, and the Killer Alliance has not made a move, if we want to track down the location of the Tibetans, we really can't find it." You can't really exchange the decree, can you? ”

I was stunned. Let's not talk about whether we can find the holy decree, assuming that the holy decree is already in hand, it cannot be handed over to the ten permanent servants. gave it to the ten permanent servants, He Jin must be furious, and when Hou Xing attacked the Baihe Gorge, it was not the Gan sisters and brothers who died.

Guan Yu said: "Miss Gan understands the righteousness, and at the beginning, she was able to serve the cause of her eldest brother in Zhuocheng, but now we must not let her go." It is rare for a woman in the world to have such courage and foresight. ”

Zhang Fei roared: "What the second brother said is reasonable, I don't believe that I can't save my sister-in-law!" But what about the Holy Decree? Do you really want to hand it over to He Jin, that birdman? ”

I said: "Now the post of Anxi County Commander is indispensable. But He Jin and I have become inseparable, and it is also doubtful whether the Anxi County Order can do it safely. Let's wait until the decree is found. ”

Guan Yu said: "I don't think so. The Huang Gai brothers have always been polite to me and my third brother, presumably He Jin doesn't want to be ruthless to his eldest brother now. In short, until the Holy Decree is found, the eldest brother is still safe. Why don't you call the Huang Gai brothers here, see their attitudes, and then decide what to do next. ”

I said, "There's no way to do it." ”

A moment later, the two Huang Gai brothers came to the courtyard.

As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, Huang Chao was ashamed of himself and said, "Lord Liu, we finally waited for you to return safely." Everything is a conspiracy between Liang Jidong and the county guard. I didn't expect that they were actually the interveners of the Ten Standing Servants, in a vain attempt to harm Lord Liu, which caused you to misunderstand General He. That night, when I saw Lord Liu going to Zhuocheng alone, my original intention was to inform Liang Jidong and others to take care of them, not wanting to cause such an incident, causing Lord Liu to suffer, and more than 200 innocent people to suffer. I'm really upset. Fortunately, Lord Liu was able to return safely. ”

Huang Chao put all the blame on Liang Jidong and the county guard, and the only explanation was that they thought Jian Yong was dead and did not confess He Jin's conspiracy. I don't know how they understood my escape. So he asked: "What is the matter with Zhu Zhi and Sun Jing and Gao Ran?" ”

Huang Chao replied: "Zhu Zhi and Sun Jing were indeed ordered by General He to save the adults. Gao Ran was originally a subordinate of the Ten Standing Attendants, but later abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and heard that he had fought side by side with the adults on the flyover to drive away the Tang Sect villains. ”

The news spread so fast. From this, I can be sure that He Jin's party still thinks that I am unaware of their conspiracy. In this way, I am in the dark, and they are in the light, and they will be more relaxed in coping. Immediately pretending not to know the inside story, he replied, "Yes." At that time, I misunderstood that he was still a lackey of the Ten Permanent Servants. ”

Of course, the acting has to be played in full, and then sighed: "I didn't expect the Ten Standing Servants to be so insidious and ruthless." Don't know if I'm safe in Anxi County? The herald said that Liu Zhi, the king of the Zhongshan Festival, was in a group with the ten permanent servants, would he be unfavorable to me? ”

Huang Gai hurriedly replied: "Don't worry, Lord Liu, Zhu Sima has already led the troops to arrive, and he has come here to protect his lordship." Moreover, Lord Liu was appointed by the court, even if he was a royal prince, he could not act recklessly and ignore the laws of the court. ”

Guan Yu said: "How many people did Zhu Sima bring?" ”

Huang Chao replied: "A thousand infantry troops." ”

I said, "What is the situation now?" ”

Huang Chao said: "The court is quite stable. There is news that Jian Shuo, the head of the ten permanent servants, has rushed to Anxi County, and the Jiewang Mansion has also been densely transferred to many masters of the rivers and lakes. Today's Anxi County is already turbulent. ”

I said, "Jian Shuo must have discovered something, so he wanted to come to the Jiewang Mansion to retrieve the Holy Finger." Without further ado, let's go to the county government to hand over. Tomorrow we will begin to search for the whereabouts of the Holy Decree, and we must not let Jian Shuo take the Holy Decree away. Also, trouble the two to continue to send people to monitor the festival palace day and night. ”

Huang Chao arched his hand and replied: "My lord, please rest assured, I have ordered three groups of people to take turns to monitor, as long as the Jiewang Mansion makes a slight move, it can be rewarded immediately." ”

"In that case, go to the county office." I took the lead out of the courtyard and walked towards the county office.

****** ******

The entrance of the county government was full of people, and the sound of old cries could be faintly heard inside. We hurried into the crowd, and an old woman in very ordinary clothes was lying on the ground, crying with a handful of snot and tears. The two errand guards standing guard in front of the county yamen turned a blind eye and leaned against the door to talk, laugh and chat.

After inquiry, I learned that the old woman's house was forcibly demolished by others. I was furious and ordered Zhang Fei to help her into the county office.

The two officers stopped: "Mr. Huang, my lord has issued an order that the lowly officials are not allowed to let her in." ”

I asked coldly, "Which one?" ”

The officer on the left seemed to see that I was not good, and asked, "May I ask who this is?" ”

I slapped him in the face. "Your lord!"
