Chapter 64 Strange People Gather Jinluan
"Benefactor?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Biao was suddenly surprised, "Your Excellency recognized the wrong person, right?" ”
Guo Wadang said: "The old man is not confused, can Zhang Zhutou remember Chen Monkey?" ”
Zhang Biao nodded and said, "Remember." ”
Chen Hou'er is a monkey artist who walks the rivers and lakes, and he is also a flower thief, who committed serious crimes in various places and was arrested by them in the capital.
Guo Laohan said in a deep voice: "There is a woman in my village who went to the city with her father to watch a play, but she was targeted and killed by this thief. ”
"I waited for this time to come to the capital, just to take his head back, who expected that Zhang Zhutou had already arrested him first, and on the day of beheading, we were all present."
"That's why so."
Yang Xiao smiled: "Then it's my own person, everyone sit down, I'll go get some wine and food." ”
With that, he hurried away.
Zhang Biao also nodded and smiled: "I also remember, when my father was alive, he mentioned the Huaizhou Guo family's grinding palm, you are from Guojiawan, right?" ”
"What Zhang Zhutou said is right."
"I'm no longer in public, just be a brother..."
With this relationship, the atmosphere is suddenly harmonious,
Not long after, Yang Xiao came back with wine and food, everyone drank and chatted, and everything was decided during the banquet.
Zhang Biao is responsible for taking care of the relationship between Fengyi Fang, so don't let people come to disturb him.
Yang Xiao contacted the bricks, stones, and wooden beams, and as for a group of craftsmen in Guojiawan, they disguised themselves to repair the Taoist temple, waited for the opportunity, and left Yujing City.
After arranging everything, Zhang Biao said goodbye and left, and went to Jing'anfang by the way, leaving a code on the wall.
The construction is about to start, and money is indispensable.
The money left in Cui Laodao's place, it's time to take it out in batches...
…………
Just when Zhang Biao was busy, Zhou Dalang was also led by Jin Wuwei to the palace.
Ordinary people in Yujing City, many of whom have never been to the northern city where powerful people gather in their lives, let alone the imperial palace.
Towering red walls, majestic stone beasts, wide squares, strong and mighty soldiers......
Along the way, Zhou Dalang's brain was already a mess, his legs were weak, and his previous excitement had already turned into deep fear.
"In front is the Qionghua Palace."
The little eunuch who led the way whispered.
Looking at Zhou Dalang's appearance, for some reason, the little eunuch remembered that he was immature when he first entered the palace, and reminded him with a lot of mouths: "Father-in-law Luan Moyan, the head of internal affairs, has a lot of eyes for you, and you can move around more if you have something." ”
"Uh-huh."
Looking up at the towering palace, Zhou Dalang opened his mouth wide and his eyes were glazed......
When I entered the hall, there were already many people gathered inside.
Zhou Dalang's mind was confused, he trembled as soon as he came in, knelt on the ground with weak knees, banged his head a few times, and said in a trembling voice: "Grass people, meet the emperor!" ”
Poof!
There were a few sneers around.
Tian Yue stood behind Granny Rat, the corners of her mouth full of disdain.
The Hu monks of the Fire Luo Sect folded their hands and lowered their heads, without a trace of expression on their faces.
A hint of disappointment flashed in Granny Rat's eyes.
Behind everyone, the warlock Bai Yan still had that fox-like smile, looking around silently.
On the carved dragon throne, Emperor Zhao Mian showed a trace of satisfaction in his eyes, and slowly said: "Zhou Aiqing, no need for a big salute, get up." ”
On the first day of today's list, he summoned a lot of people, but all of them were not good and seemed respectful, but he couldn't see that they were all ghosts.
However, this week's Dalang, although he is an inconspicuous grass citizen, at least he showed deference.
Thinking of this, Zhao Mian nodded to the side.
Luan Moyan, the head of internal affairs, immediately stepped forward, spread out a holy decree and read aloud: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor said, among the countryside, there must be sages, I feel the changes of the world, build the imperial real mansion, and choose good talents from all directions..."
Roughly speaking, the imperial court wants to establish a new institution called the Yuzhen Mansion, and after everyone joins, they directly get a six-rank official position.
The Yuzhen Mansion was personally governed by the emperor, and the head of internal affairs, Luan Moyan, temporarily served as the leader.
"Thank you, Emperor Longen."
Everyone bowed down in unison.
Zhou Dalang didn't know a single word, how could he understand the holy decree, but he was not a fool, and when he saw everyone's congratulations, he also bent down and bowed his hand.
After reciting the holy decree, Zhao Mian nodded to the Hu monks of the Huoluo Sect and said: "What you want, I have already understood, and after the autumn stove sacrifice, I will order the king of Youyou to send that thing." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The monks breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly bowed their heads.
The chief catcher Guo An is also in the palace.
He could see that Emperor Zhao Mian attached great importance to this newly established Yuzhen Mansion, but he looked at it coldly and bowed his head and said nothing.
At this time, Zhao Mian in the palace spoke again: "The new construction of the Yuzhen Mansion should have been close to your Aiqing family, but there are other important things, so I have to work you first." ”
"This is Guo An, the chief catcher of the six gates, he will talk to you in detail..."
With that, he slowly got up and left the main hall.
Guo An arched his hand and said, "Everyone, without further ado, please!" ”
He is an old fritter in the officialdom, knowing that these people have different skills, and they are favored by the emperor, they will be powerful in the future, so they will naturally not be offended.
Six Doors Total Head Catch...
Zhou Dalang stood in the crowd and shivered slightly.
He remembered Zhang Biao, who was just a small catcher, and no one dared to mess with him in the workshop, and his family had to be careful.
And now, the head catchers of the six doors are so polite to them.
It's a great feeling...
Guo An naturally didn't know what Zhou Dalang thought, and when he left the imperial city, he took everyone to Tongzheng Fang, the six-door main hall.
When I entered a large house, I saw more than a dozen corpses densely packed inside, all covered with white cloths.
Guo An slowly lifted the white cloth.
Under the white cloth, there was a twisted corpse, with twisted bone spurs growing at the joints of the body, and bone horns sticking out of the head, like a ghost, and the flesh and blood were blurred.
"Uh... Vomit! ”
Zhou Dalang had never seen such a scene, he was so frightened that he trembled and vomited directly.
All of a sudden, the sour smell filled the house.
The disgust of the crowd dispersed, but they did not care about the blame, and several of them also had bad faces.
There are men and women, all of them are from the rivers and lakes, just like Zhou Dalang, after the revival of the aura, they have undergone changes and awakened some kind of magical power.
Naturally, they didn't know the cause and effect, thinking that they were going to work, but they didn't think about the day before they saw this thing.
"Always catch the head, it's not good!"
At this moment, several headhunters hurriedly carried one person into the room, also covered in bone spurs, and screamed in pain.
When Guo An saw it, he was immediately furious, "What's the matter?" ”
The one who was recruited was Xu Bai.
A catcher said in a trembling voice: "Fang Cai almost mutinied, Xu Shen caught it and dealt with it, and it became like this in a while." ”
Guo An took a deep breath, "Everyone, is there a way to save me?" ”
In the crowd, a little monk walked out tremblingly, clasped his hands and said: "The little monk is a holy temple to wish Huiyuan, and the Medicine Buddha Hall has the protection of the Buddha, so you can carry people over first." ”
Guo An had naturally read everyone's information, and hurriedly said: "Quick, use the carriage, open the road along the street with my warrant, and carry people over!" ”
The little monk Huiyuan swallowed his saliva, "The little monk must also follow, otherwise it will be difficult to rescue." ”
"Master Lao."
Guo An hurriedly handed it over.
Chongsheng Temple is not far from Tongzheng Fang, and soon, there will be a head catcher who hurried back, and said with a happy face: "Total head catcher, Xu Shen caught just entered the Medicine Buddha Temple, and he no longer got sick, and now the little monk is rescuing." ”
Guo An sighed at this time, and said respectfully: "You are all people with Taoism, do you know what is the trouble?" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.
Zhou Dalang and those awakened people naturally didn't understand anything, and Granny Rat pretended to be stupid and clumsy.
Warlock Bai Yan's eyes moved slightly, and he was about to speak, but when he saw several Hu monks exchanging glances, he kept silent.
Sure enough, a monk Hu spoke: "This lord, in my teaching texts, it has been said that there are 108,000 demons in the world, and such symptoms are somewhat similar to a demon named Soli Bone Rakshasa . ”
"In the words of Middle-earth, it's the White Bone Demon!"
…………
Before you know it, night falls.
In the darkness, a figure ran rapidly on the wall of the workshop, sometimes rising into the air, jumping up the tall building, and blending into the darkness.
It was Zhang Biao who walked at night.
In the dark alley next to Jing'an Fang, Cui Laodao kept turning around, muttering something in his mouth.
Swish!
A dark shadow appeared behind him.
Cui Lao Dao hurriedly turned his head and said with great joy: "Immortal Master, you can be regarded as appearing, during this time, Lao Dao is about to be driven crazy." ”
Zhang Biao frowned slightly, and said in a suppressed voice: "What's wrong?" ”
Cui Laodao said with a bitter face: "Although the Yichong Society has been exterminated, they have released rumors before, saying that there is Tai Sui in the capital and has the ability to subdue demons and eliminate demons. ”
"The people in the market don't know about this matter, but many dignitaries and nobles have already known about it, and they have come to the door these days, some of them want to get a see, and some of them bring a lot of money to ask for help."
"Today, the imperial court issued a list to summon strange people, and there were many people who came, and even several princes sent their subordinates to come. I can't bear it..."
"Oh?"
Zhang Biao thought about it and instantly figured out the cause and effect.
Judging from all kinds of events, the imperial court must have found something from Lianhuazong, and the news leaked out, causing all forces to be ready to move.
They are not ordinary people, there are many people with profound backgrounds, and they know what this great change means, so they naturally have to prepare in private.
In this way, it is also an opportunity......
Seeing that he was silent, Cui Laodao cautiously asked: "Immortal Master, the imperial court has issued a list, do you have any intention of entering the court?" ”
Zhang Biao said in a deep voice: "I won't enter the imperial court, but those who ask for help, you can choose some, or the previous conditions, medicinal herbs and silver." ”
"Good!"
Cui Laodao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
Zhang Biao nodded, "To be honest, I have no intention of accepting apprentices, you are old and hopeless in your cultivation." If you want to continue to do things for me, you can take some benefits from it, and I will give you some opportunities in the future. ”
"But the danger, do you know?"
"Immortal Master rest assured."
Cui Lao Dao smiled on his face, "Lao Dao has his own measure and can cope with it." ”
"Also, those things, Lao Dao secretly hid them in a private house, and the immortal master can use them for himself, and he will never leak the rumors......"
After the two discussed, Zhang Biao immediately took advantage of his strength to take off, jumped on the wall, and disappeared under the moonlit night.
Looking at the distant figure, Cui Laodao muttered: "Sure enough, I have nothing to do with the Tao, but if I find a backer, I will be able to enjoy the scenery in the future..."
……
After leaving Jing'anfang, Zhang Biao did not return home, but went directly to Tongzhengfang.
The White Bone Demon is full of treasures and cannot be missed.
I wonder what progress is being made over there?
He was very fast, and now he didn't have six doors to patrol the night, so it didn't take long for him to arrive at Tongzheng Fang.
However, as soon as he jumped onto the wall, he frowned.
Outside the six doors, there was already a burst of fire......
