Chapter Seventy-One: Heavenly Machine Gate
Su Xiu traveled overnight, and when he arrived in Fengqi County, it was still twilight.
Dusk shines on the earth, and the winter sunset is warm.
Bathed in this warm sunshine, he saw where the master was anxiously waiting for him from afar.
After seeing himself coming slowly on a horse.
The master hurriedly ran over.
A stone that was originally hanging in the master's heart, and when he saw that his county order returned safely, the stone fell down safely.
"My lord, you can come back, and the little one's hanging heart is also gone.
Su Xiu turned over and dismounted, and handed over the reins to the master.
"Why are you waiting for me here?"
The master hurriedly said, "Little one, I've been waiting for you in this county office for two days." ”
"With normal leg strength, you should have arrived a long time ago."
Su Xiu walked inward, and said indifferently: "Well, there was a little situation on the way. ”
The master asked with concern, "Solved?" ”
Su Xiu nodded.
"Solved."
Looking at his own county order, which was covered with dirt and dust, the master knew that he must have encountered something extraordinary along the way.
But fortunately, the county order is now back in Fengqi County, and it can be regarded as safe for the time being.
Su Xiu asked Fang Jingyao with concern.
"During the time I left, was something happening in our county?"
The master lowered his eyebrows and said, "That's not true, everything is fine in the county." ”
"Not only that, our Fengqi County is now the largest county in Yanzhou......"
Su Xiu listened to the report of this master of his own family about the time he was away.
There is a hint of relief in my heart.
The master, who was originally talking about the work, suddenly paused.
"There will be nothing in our county to say anything."
"It's just that in the days when you left, a juggler came to our county office and handed over a small letter."
"He said this letter, and it must be handed over to you."
Su Xiu raised his eyebrows and looked at his master with a solemn expression.
"Juggling?"
The master replied with a strange face: "Yes, it's a juggler, I didn't believe it at first." ”
"But he gave me a bead and said he would give it to you along with the letter when the time came."
"I looked at the beads at the time, and thought that this thing was priceless, and this juggler should not be made up, so I agreed."
Su Xiu said with a solemn face: "What about the letter and things, give it to me." ”
After the master agreed, he first took the horse to the stable, bolted it, and then trotted to the lobby, where he took a letter and beads from the case.
Then he came to Su Xiu's house and handed the letter to Su Xiu.
Uncovering the letter and looking at the contents of the letter, Su Xiu pursed his lips.
It was originally tightly wrinkled, and his eyebrows slowly expanded.
The master stood aside respectfully, not curious, not asking, and staring ahead with his eyes, as if there was no such person as him in the room.
I have been a master for so long, of course I know, and there are some things that I shouldn't know, so I don't want to know.
The corners of Su Xiu's mouth curled slightly.
"Master, get ready, there should be a distinguished guest visiting in the near future."
The master had a question mark on his face.
"Uh...... My lord, who is this distinguished guest? Oh...... It's not that I'm curious about his identity, it's just that my subordinates need to know what kind of reception they have. ”
"The highest spec."
The master opened his mouth in surprise.
"Huh? The highest specs? ”
Su Xiu nodded, then waved his hand.
The master also left the house with interest.
Before leaving, he said casually: "I don't know why, recently, there have been a few more jugglers in our Fengqi County." ”
Su Xiu didn't pay attention to what his master said, and lit the oil lamp on the side by himself, burning the letter directly.
While burning, I secretly searched for the contents of the letter.
This letter was delivered to Su Xiu by Su Wenhai through the Cloud Machine Society.
Speaking of this Tianji Gate, I have to say that I have to find the foresight of our predecessor Zaisuke.
Although Su Wenhai was loyal to the emperor of the Great Chu Dynasty, he was not foolish.
Wise, he knew that he was already an important minister in charge of the six ministries.
Therefore, when he was in power, he never had any interaction with people in the military.
But that doesn't mean that we, Zaisuke, have given up some of our armed forces.
On the contrary, this Zaifu silently supported and operated this organization, Tianjimen.
And the reason why he runs such an organization is because of the way back for his family, but also to collect evidence of the White Lotus Sect.
At the beginning of this day, it was just a folk juggling society, specializing in juggling and juggling.
Although this sect is a ninth-rate person, the people in it are all ninth-rate people.
But it's these people who can often get things done.
How could the master know that these juggling artists came to this town precisely because Tianjimen was entrusted by Su Wenhai.
Come to Fengqi County to protect your young master.
After all these years, Su Wenhai has been carefully operating.
This Tianjimen, there are not many people, although it cannot be said that it is all over Kyushu, but it can be counted scattered, there can be thousands of people.
Of course, this is all counted inside and outside the door.
If it's just the inner door, it's less than three hundred.
This inner gate is also divided into two factions, one is a martial artist and the other is a talent.
The martial artists are all jugglers, mainly responsible for protection, and protect the safety of the Su family when there are special circumstances.
The martial artist of the hundred and tenth is a juggling for a living on weekdays.
In this way, they can hide from others, and secondly, it is easier to protect.
People who have lived in the capital for a long time know that Zaisuke's family lives on the most lively street.
And in addition to the hundred and dozens of martial artists, the rest are Xiucai.
Xiucai are all tricksters, and they mainly study all kinds of strange things to use to deliver messages.
In this Great Chu Dynasty, the Ghost Hand King, who is famous in the magic world, is one of the four cardinals of Tianjimen.
The bead in Su Xiu's hand is a symbol of the identity of the Ghost Hand King.
At the beginning, Su Wenhai just wanted to leave a way back for his family, in case something happened to him one day, so that someone could protect them from leaving Kyoto.
Therefore, only one-third of them are martial artists, and the rest are mainly to deliver and collect messages.
Don't underestimate the martial artists of the 100th place, their strength is not bad, and they are all good players picked out by Su Wenhai.
If it is placed in the military, the martial artist in the Tianji Gate is at least a centurion.
Originally, Su Wenhai was not going to tell anyone about these things.
But last time Su Xiu wrote a letter to inform Su Wenhai of the man in black incident he encountered.
Su Wenhai mobilized the entire Tianji Gate to help Su Xiu check, but he gained very little, and he couldn't find the organization of those black-clothed people at all.
In the end, although some clues were found, none of the people in Tianjimen were alive.
If it weren't for the Ghost Hand King's action, the Tianji Gate would have almost been picked up by the other party.
Since Xiucai couldn't find out the reason, Su Wenhai had to send half of the martial artist over to secretly protect Su Xiu.
Only then did he tell Su Xiu in the letter that the existence of the Tianji Gate.
