Chapter 113: The enemy of the enemy is the best partner to work with
Selangor is called Selangor not because it snows a lot, but because of a plant called edelweiss.
The propagation method is similar to that of dandelions, but the growth mode is similar to moss, whether it is tiles or walls, as long as it is stained with a little edge, it can grow a large patch in a few days, and it is not afraid of cold and heat, all seasons.
However, this thing is not only harmless, but it can also be used as a medicine for the stomach, just like a gift from God to the people of Selangor.
Only large families who don't care about this little bit of small profits will hire someone to sweep the edelweiss, so that the original color of the building is revealed, showing the status of identity.
Especially the city of Frost Huafu.
As the power center of a province, there is hardly much edelweiss in the city.
Even the Taiping Road branch is like this.
Jimin Medical Workshop.
A middle-aged man with a strong body and extraordinary clothes stepped in.
Strangely, the middle-aged man was blindfolded with a piece of black satin.
"This lord, what kind of medicine do you want to grab?"
The drugstore guy's eyes lit up and he greeted him with a smile.
"I don't buy medicine."
The middle-aged man shook his head, took out a fiery red rhizome-like plant, lit up a little in front of the guy and put it in his arms, "I need money urgently, I don't know a few of them, you go and report to your shopkeeper, if he doesn't recognize it, forget it." ”
“…… This, good. ”
The surprise and greed in the man's eyes flashed, "You wait." ”
After that, he glanced at the other guys, and he lifted the curtain and entered the back hall.
Not long after, the guy found the slightly fat shopkeeper in the study: "My lord, there is a man from outside, who wants to sell medicine, it is Chifugen." ”
"Chifugen?"
The shopkeeper frowned, "Chifugen is not an ordinary medicine, it is the eighth to ninth level of enlightenment, and it only needs this one to break through...... What else did he say? ”
"Back to my lord, that man said that he was in a hurry to use money, and he found a few that didn't sell them, if we can't recognize them, forget it."
The man replied in a deep voice, with no discoloration on his face, "He blindfolded his eyes with black satin, it should be a new injury, and he is afraid that he needs money urgently for this." ”
"Is that ......?"
The shopkeeper pondered for a long time, shook his head and said: "Forget it, it's just a red fugu root, it's better not to attract attention in the current extraordinary period, just say I didn't recognize it, let him go to another house and ask again." ”
"Yes."
The guy clenched his fists and bowed, and there was a flash of joy in his eyes.
"Those who come are guests, why refuse people thousands of miles away?"
A faint voice suddenly sounded beside the two.
Blind middle-aged people just appeared in the study.
"You!"
The man was shocked, and was interrupted by the shopkeeper just as he spoke.
"What are you, how can you call a distinguished guest like that?"
The shopkeeper waved his hand angrily, "Get down." ”
The guy crawled away.
"I don't know what to call your guests?"
The shopkeeper arched his hand, "That medicinal herb, can you let you take a closer look?" ”
"Alright, I'm not here to sell medicine."
The middle-aged man waved his hand, "I want to see your hall master." ”
"Hall Master?"
An imperceptible shock flashed in the shopkeeper's eyes, and he said with a smile: "I'm afraid that the distinguished guest has found the wrong place, and the pharmacy does not have the position of hall master." ”
"Within seven days, 477 people entered the pharmacy and 474 people left the pharmacy, and the number of men, bookkeepers, and other miscellaneous workers in the pharmacy continued unabated."
The middle-aged man said in a flat tone, "What, have those three people been taken by you to refine medicine?" ”
"You ......"
The shopkeeper's face turned cold, "Who is Your Excellency?" ”
"You don't have to know who I am."
The middle-aged man stepped forward, "But I can already see from what you just did that the bookshelf behind you is the entrance to the secret passage...... Die or get out of the way. ”
As soon as the words fell, a fierce and incomparable killing intent came out of his body.
The shopkeeper's soul flies out of the sky.
He swore that he had never seen such a violent killing intent in his life, not even a move, as long as he showed the slightest resistance, it was likely to be a death.
So, the shopkeeper got out of the way.
Not only that, but he also said quickly: "The book in the middle of the second bookshelf, "The Theory of Medicine and Poison", turn it to the left three times. ”
"Hmm."
Middle-aged people restrain their killing intent and do so.
Click......
With a slight sound of the machine turning, the bookshelves recessed inward.
A deep passage slanted down the cleared ground.
"Hold on here, and if you work together, you'll get a lot of benefits from it."
The middle-aged man turned around and said a word, and walked down directly.
Cooperate?
The shopkeeper was excited, and the fear gradually dissipated and turned into ecstasy.
After restoring the secret passage to its original state, the shopkeeper walked to the corner again, pulled out the unknown plant on the vase, and then said a few words respectfully to the mouth of the bottle.
……
……
The blind man is no one else, it is Xu Chong who has changed his appearance with his faceless clothes.
Even Dou Tianyuan concluded that he couldn't kill Xie Changqing, why did he insist?
Naturally, it's because of Taipingdao.
Although he didn't have a good impression of Taiping Dao, at least in the matter of wanting Xie Changqing to die, the two were highly consistent.
The enemy of your enemies is not necessarily a friend, but it must be the best person to work with.
So he came to Selangor, spent a lot of time, and found the Taiping Road branch.
"Hope to get some useful information."
Xu Chong didn't hide his tracks, so he walked down the steps with such a big thorn.
The main road of the underground palace is only one zhang wide, but there are corridors on the left and right sides that extend out, leading to unknown places.
It is estimated that it is either office space, personnel accommodation, or other access channels.
Xu Chong didn't turn around, just went straight forward.
The people at the bottom should have gotten the news and didn't jump out of any minions shouting and shouting to kill.
Just let Xu Chong go all the way to the bottom.
A boxy underground hall is no different from an ordinary living room in terms of layout, except that there is no light and no flowers and plants.
In the center of the main seat sat a bearded man, the lower left is an old woman in Mai, and the lower right is a woman with an extremely good posture.
There were only four people in the room, and three of them were obviously of higher status.
But Xu Chong's gaze stayed more on the person who was standing.
Snow white dress with tulle covering.
Sun Yurong.
"Are you pretending to be blind just to make it easier to look around?"
The old woman opened her mouth with compassion, and her facial features looked extremely terrifying under the light.
Xu Chong nodded with satisfaction.
That's what a thief should look like.
"Master Nantang, don't be impatient."
The bearded man comforted the old woman and looked at Xu Chong: "You said you want to cooperate with us, what are you cooperating?" ”
Bang!
As soon as the words fell, the bearded man seemed to have been punched, and the whole person was beaten and flew out sideways, knocking over a brazier in the corner.
"When the guests come, they don't know how to give up their seats, it's really rude."
Xu Chong clapped his hands and sat down on the main seat.
“!!!”
The remaining three didn't react until this time, and they were all shocked.
They didn't see the scene at all just now!
What is this concept?!
People in the Taiping Dao have the habit of hiding part of the realm, and they don't know each other.
But there is never much of this hidden.
In other words, the bearded man is not much different from them, if not the strongest of them.
The blindfolded man can actually beat the bearded man lightly?
The old woman and the woman exchanged glances, and a decision was quickly made.
Join forces to strike, regardless of success or not, immediately retreat, and can go one by one.
However, just as they were about to make a move, the cries of the bearded man came.
"Slow!."
The bearded man flashed back and stopped in front of the two, "Your Excellency has left his hand, and I am not injured." ”
Hearing this, the old woman and the woman were both stiff.
At that speed, you can also ensure that you don't hurt people in the slightest, just knock people out.
That means that killing people is just a simple thing.
"Dare to ask your Excellency what you have to say?"
The bearded man clenched his fist towards Xu Chong.
"There's no hurry."
Xu Chong knocked on the armrest of the seat, "Let's introduce ourselves." ”
This kind of anti-customer-oriented posture is really a bit faceless.
If it is placed in the imperial court, no matter how strong it is, it will make people resentful.
But this is Taiping Road.
The strong are respected, and it is justified.
So there was no dissatisfaction among the people.
"In Xia Zhengwu, he is the hall master of the Selangor branch of Taiping Road, and he is from the Zheng family."
After the bearded man finished speaking, he took the initiative to take on the job of introducing others, "This is the hall master of the Wuzhou branch and Nan Hongzhi, who was born in the Nan family, one of the six major families, this is the hall master of the Yongzhou branch Hua Rongyue, and this is the white-clothed Taoist descendant Yu Rong, all of whom are from the Hua family of the six major families. ”
“……”
Xu Chong was a little speechless and asked, "Why don't you make up a few fake names?" ”
All he wanted to know was the identities of these people, the names didn't matter, and he didn't make friends.
But I didn't expect it......
There are two names, 'Hua Langyue' and 'Sun Yurong', which is enough to prove that the other two are also real names.
"It's not that I don't want to, but I don't dare."
Zheng Wu said bluntly, "I don't know your details, and I don't know if your Excellency knows our details, if you lose your life because of such a trivial matter as your name and surname, it will be too worthless." ”
"Well, that makes sense."
Xu Chong nodded, and suddenly said: "I am a member of the imperial court, so I won't tell you my identity, and it is also false to tell you." ”
These people had expected this, and there was no surprise.
There are not one or two people who interact with the Taiping Road, and most of them will choose to hide their identities, even if they can't hide them, they will not leave traces that can prove their identities.
"Can you tell me what you were talking about?"
Xu Chong smiled, "The three hall masters gathered together, I'm afraid it's not a trivial matter." ”
Zheng Wu and the others glanced at each other, not knowing how to speak.
"Let me guess."
Xu Chong knocked on the handrail again, "You guys are looking for a way to kill Xie Changqing, aren't you?" ”
A few people were shocked!
"Don't be nervous."
Xu Chong hooked the corners of his mouth, "I have the same purpose as you - to kill Xie Changqing!" ”
"This ......"
Several people looked at each other again, all of them looking incredulous.
"Please forgive the little woman for offending."
Hua Langyue spoke, her voice crisp and pleasant, "We really have a quick attitude towards Xie Changqing, and we have also tried to inquire about the news from some officials in the DPRK and China. ”
"But the problem is that the imperial court attaches too much importance to Xie Changqing...... As a result, officials of the DPRK and China, who have been in contact with us in the past, do not dare to disclose anything about this matter. ”
"Even, many people have cut off contact with Taiping Dao, in this case, the little woman doesn't think that anyone in the court will dare to kill Xie Changqing."
After a pause, Hua Langyue's beautiful eyes flowed and fell on Xu Chong's face: "In other words, the little girl can't trust the adult." ”
"Oh?"
Xu Chong raised his eyebrows.
Zheng Wu was afraid that Hua Rongyue would anger Xu Chong, so he hurriedly added: "Actually, there have been one or two people who have provided information about Xie Changqing, but they are all useless, and they can't find Xie Changqing's flaws at all. ”
"And that's not all."
Nan Hongzhi nodded, "Even one of the officials of the fourth rank has already been executed by Ling Chi of the imperial court just because he leaked a little useless information. ”
"Is that so...... That's it. ”
Xu Chong groaned for a while, shook his head, and reached out to untie the black satin covering his eyes.
