Chapter 392: Long Time No See, Gongzi Zhou (Ultimate Two in One)
I like Zhou Li's sentence very much.
The Riddler is a creature born with Sima.
From childhood to adulthood, Zhou Li has beaten many people. There are rotten people, stupid people, and riddlers among them. As the object of Zhou Li's attention, the frequency and intensity of the Riddler's beatings are definitely the highest.
Of course, Zhou Li's definition of a riddler is relatively rigorous, and it is not a riddler at all who has to be "vague" for special reasons, such as the Taoist chief. For Zhou Li, the riddler is often able to explain the vernacular but is not good at speaking, and the person who always says "this matter is unspeakable" is a riddler.
Therefore, after hearing Mrs. Golden Snake's words that can be called a model of riddles, Rao is Zhou Li was originally ready to negotiate calmly, but he couldn't help but scold directly. And Mrs. Golden Snake was scolded with a stunned face, and watched Zhou Li and Tang Wan escape from the Golden Silk Sculpture Building.
But now that he thinks about it, Zhou Li suddenly found that what Mrs. Golden Snake said didn't seem to be so riddled, and even said it quite bluntly.
It is an indisputable fact that the King of Han is a martial artist.
But he is also a calculating prince, this is the deep truth.
"Beauty Candy Painting..."
This keyword has become the switch of everything like a light cloud to Tang Guan, Zhou Li squinted his eyes, and began to connect all the clues in his mind, and finally fell on these four words.
According to the appearance of others, Zhang can make a sugar painting with certain abilities and memories, and after eating it, he will obtain the memories and abilities in the sugar painting. Although the sugar man Zhang said in front of Ma Chenglong that he had not joined any organization, he had actually been cooperating with the King of Han and was blessed by the King of Han.
And not long ago, King Han's loyal lackey, the county magistrate of Taiying City, asked Sugar Man Zhang to make a batch of beauty sugar paintings. But before the sugar man Zhang finished making it, he was directly poisoned at home by the strong poison of the Tang Sect. In his discarded paper basket, Zhou Li picked up a discarded sugar painting, but what was wrapped inside was the mold of Mrs. Golden Snake.
"Does Sugar Man Zhang have any relatives?"
Zhou Li thought for a moment and asked.
"Yes, I have a daughter who now lives in Beiliang. The two had a conflict before, saying that they had no father-daughter relationship and would never see each other again in this life. ”
Si Li hurriedly responded.
"Whew~"
Zhou Li exhaled slowly, he knocked on his eyebrows, and sorted out his thoughts. After a moment, he turned and shouted outside the door:
"Lao Guo, come on."
Guo Lingyun seemed to have been prepared, and directly pushed open the cell door and walked in. He glanced at Si Li, arched his hand at Zhou Li, and said, "Master Zhou, how is it?" ”
"This person will be detained for a period of time, when the Han Wangfu comes up to ask for someone, when to give it to them."
Zhou Li looked at Si Li and said calmly: "I will repair a book in a while, this matter is simpler and more complicated than we imagined." ”
"Simple? Complex? ”
Guo Lingyun frowned, a little puzzled. But as an old fritter who has been in Jinyiwei for more than ten years, he naturally knows in his heart that there are some things that are best not to ask.
After settling Si Li's matter, Zhou Li was not prepared to stay in this cell for long. He directly picked up Tang Guan, who was studying molds on the side, opened the door of Jinyiwei's cell, and left the guard. He didn't pay attention to those faint prying eyes, he knew that Jinyiwei had already been infiltrated into a sieve, but it didn't matter.
All he wanted was a working brocade guard.
After leaving Jinyiwei's guard, Zhou Li did not return to Liu Gong's mansion as soon as possible. And Ma Chenglong was chatting with a doorman outside the door at this time, and the content of the conversation was very boring, it was nothing more than today's Taiying, Taiying said these things. After seeing Zhou Li and the others come out, he greeted him and asked directly:
"Is it King Han?"
Ma Chenglong did not shy away from the name of King Han, or rather, he was born like this. It seems that he treats people gently, humbly and kindly, but in fact, many years of living in the secret realm of the cemetery have made him relatively indifferent to human feelings.
Or else? Toast zombies or kowtow to skeletons?
"It's not."
The answer was beyond Ma Chenglong's expectations, but he was only a little surprised, and did not question Zhou Li out loud, or felt that this answer was wrong. He just looked at Zhou Li, hoping to get an explanation.
"Let's go to Sugar Man Zhang's hut again, and the answer will be inside."
Zhou Li replied calmly.
"Okay."
Ma Chenglong didn't hesitate too much, nodded, and followed behind Zhou Li.
Soon, the three of them returned to Sugar Man Zhang's hut again. Outside the hut, a few nights of silence and Jinyiwei tacitly "confronted" and did not let the other party's people enter.
Their tacit understanding is not limited to this, when Zhou Li and the three of them are ready to enter this "murder scene", they collectively ignore the three people, as if these three people do not exist.
After entering the cabin, Sugar Man Zhang's body remained in place, and no one moved it. But Zhou Li did not inspect the corpse as Ma Chenglong imagined, but walked to the abandoned basket not far away, squatted down, and rummaged through it with a calm face.
After a while, Zhou Li took out a few well-preserved sugars from the discarded paper basket and drew them. Under Ma Chenglong's gaze, he smashed several of the sugar paintings with great force, and the mold wrapped in them also appeared in front of several people.
"Old Tang, fortunately, you are cheap and greedy."
Zhou Li looked at the several molds in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thanks? Alas, no! ”
didn't care about Tang Guan, who was thinking about whether he was being scolded or praised, Ma Chenglong also noticed the special features of these molds. He stepped forward and looked at it carefully, and after a while, Ma Chenglong said in astonishment:
"Is this me?!"
"It's not just you."
Zhou Li has a total of four sugar painting molds in his hands, one of which is Ma Chenglong, and the other three are Liu Gong, Zuo Qianhu and...
Zhou Li.
That's right, the mold of the last sugar painting is Zhou Li. But Zhou Li could see that this mold had not been completed, and even said that it was just a prototype. But Zhou Li can feel that the sugar man Zhang wants to carve a mold of his own.
"That's right."
With a long sigh of relief, Zhou Li slowly stood up. He looked at Ma Chenglong, who was a little incredible, and said, "Uncle Long, your friend was not killed. It's not the Tang Gate, it's not a monster, it's not the King of Han. ”
"He's suicidal."
"Suicide?"
King Han put down the fold in his hand and slowly raised his eyes, his eyes like a tiger were full of indifference and coldness.
"Sugar Man Zhang committed suicide."
Ying Cong half-knelt in front of King Han and said respectfully: "Sugar Man Zhang ate the Tang family's sugar paintings, and concocted the unique poison of the Tang Sect to poison himself. He knew that His Highness was going to war with the Golden Serpent Gang, but he didn't want to be involved, so he chose to commit suicide to prevent future troubles. ”
"What about his daughter?"
King Han asked calmly.
"According to the letters we intercepted, three days ago, Zhang Qiu, the daughter of the sugar man Zhang, found Zhou Taoyao and sought her refuge."
"It seems that he still ate Zhou Li's sugar painting."
Squinting his eyes, King Han said meaningfully: "I thought this old boy was a stubborn old man, but I didn't expect that there was still this hand waiting for me. After eating Zhou Li's sugar painting, he found that he could protect his daughter, so he chose to commit suicide and not help anyone..."
"Good calculation."
"Shall we..."
Shadow hesitated.
"Who do you want to kill?"
Glancing at the shadow servant coldly, King Han said calmly: "Sugar Man Zhang is dead, and everything he owed me before has been repaid." If it weren't for him, it would be one thing whether you would return to Taiying alive. Now, when a person dies, his debts are gone, and when he dies, he just wants to save his daughter, why, are you still going to kill his daughter? ”
Shadow never answered, and lowered his head even deeper.
"Sugar Man Zhang painted Sugar Man, and every time he had to use his life for a year. In the past few years, there have been many things, and he has given us no less than 20 years of life, which is enough. ”
King Han threw the fold to Ying Cong, stood up, and said indifferently: "There is no need to investigate the matter of Sugar Man Zhang, he is insignificant. His fortune calculation is only a ninth-rate, and he can't deal with Zhuge Qing and Mrs. Golden Snake. ”
"Shall we find someone else, then?"
Ying Cong asked worriedly, "The method of divination is too important, as soon as the sugar man Zhang dies, we will no longer have any schemers." ”
"Why does it matter?"
King Han looked at Ying Cong and asked indifferently, "Is the method of divination really important?" ”
Ying Cong was stunned for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "The method of divination is the law of passing through the longitude and latitude of heaven and earth, knowing the past and the future, if we don't have a person of divination, we will fall behind..."
"Ying Cong, I will report to the 3,000 battalion tomorrow, and start as General Jinyu."
Ying Cong was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the fold that King Han threw to him was an order. He was transferred away from the side of the King of Han and sent to the dispatch of the 3,000 battalions.
"You've been with me for too long, you've done too much dirty work, and you're not used to life in the sun."
King Han looked at Yingcong, did not hate iron and steel, and was not disappointed. He has a little self-blame, but more of it, it is his trust in the shadow servant:
"Remember, I am the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and you are the Jinyu general of the 3,000 battalions. Back then, on the battlefield, it was you and I who fought together to cut off the head of King Jinsha and break the enemy. From today onwards, use less intrigue and more conspiracy to break the formation, understand? ”
Ying Cong's expression was very surprised, he couldn't believe what he saw, he looked at the order in his hand, and then looked at King Han, his mind went blank. After a long time, Ying Cong fell to his knees and kowtowed vigorously to Han Wangsan. He didn't shout thanks, nor did he cry, he just turned his back and walked out of the Han Palace, instead of leaving from the beam of the house as in the past.
"Alright, it's time for the fun to end."
As if talking to himself, King Han shook his head and whispered: "Pave the road again, and you can officially start." ”
"If you don't listen to me, let's go draw the book, you are responsible for drawing and I will be responsible for publishing, and we will divide it into fifty."
Squatting in the carriage, Zhou Li fiddled with the mold in his hand and said to Tang Guan shyly: "You believe me, your craftsmanship is matched with my literary talent, and we specify that it can be sold at a good price." ”
"Not good."
Tang Wan scratched his head and said blankly: "Isn't it a crime to engage in pornography?" ”
"Then the Beiliang Taixue is not allowed to engage in pornography, and it is a legitimate industry for Daming to engage in pornography." 、
Zhou Li didn't have a good airway.
"Will it work?"
Tang Guan touched his chin and said suspiciously: "Can this thing really make money?" ”
"You don't understand anything."
Zhou Li glanced at Tang Wan with disgust, and then he took out Tang Guan's masterpiece "The Lady of the Golden Snake", opened it directly, and then began to comment.
"Look at your human anatomy, it's perfect, and it's killing those artists who can't even draw their calves. And your action, although there is an element of my guidance, but you also have a good understanding of yourself, after all, you are also one of the few people who have two ideologies and genders. Look at your painting, how charming, how beautiful, Dorser, let me tell you, let's wait for this time to finish and go directly..."
"Whew, I'm tired, Brother Zhou has water..."
When I opened the carriage window, I saw Zhou Li, who was holding an astringent picture and Tang Guan's serious analysis.
Zhu Qianyun froze.
"Zhou Li, let's go."
Tang Wan realized something, and said calmly and in a low voice: "Leave me alone." ”
"How can I go?"
Looking at the humanoid tyrannosaurus Zhu Qianyun, whose eyes gradually became hollow and his fists began to harden, Zhou Li became more calm: "I have to run." ”
Without any hesitation, Zhou Li directly broke out of the window, and then was easily slapped back by Zhu Qianyun.
"You'd better explain to me what happened on the day I wasn't there."
Zhu Qianyun said indifferently.
No way, anyone stayed at their father's house for a day, happily preparing to meet with their good friends, to see what useful things they had done in their absence, what kind of efforts they were making for everyone's future, and what sweat they were experiencing.
As a result, as soon as I opened the car curtain, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the two things were studying the astringent diagram.
Who can stand this?
Fortunately, Zhou Li and Tang Wan were very flexible, and in just a few tens of seconds, the desire to survive made them make up the reason that "in order to test the people of the Golden Snake Gang, they can only improve it and try to provoke the people of the Golden Snake Gang".
Zhu Qianyun didn't believe it.
Of course, if you don't believe it, you don't believe it, and Zhu Qianyun won't really beat the two of them because of this little thing. Although Zhu Qianyun knows that these two things are sometimes out of tune, they are still very safe in terms of right and wrong...
Right?
"Can you find a better reason next time?"
Zhou Li gritted his teeth and whispered to Tang Guan.
"If my brain can be turned, you should kowtow to me."
Tang Wan covered his head and faked crying.
"Damn, let me say it next time, or I'll throw you in the buckle space."
Zhou Li said angrily.
"Huh?"
Tang Wan was dumbfounded, she once again realized what kind of terrifying creativity Zhou Li's forcing system was. And Zhu Qianyun also tried to understand this kind of forced words, but quickly gave up.
And just as the three of them were about to continue talking, there was a violent explosion, and the whole carriage shook violently as if it had been thrown up. Zhou Li and the three of them reacted quickly, rushed out of the carriage directly, and barely escaped at the moment before the carriage was torn.
"Ahem..."
Zhou Li coughed a few times, slowly got up, and Zhou Ji, who had protected the three of them, also slowly returned to the jade gourd.
Soon, the smoke cleared, and the bustling street was now filled with flying corpses and scattered crowds. The sound of crying, the noise, the hurried footsteps, the sound of flesh and blood rubbing against each other, filled the street like a ghost, and there was a constant noise.
And at the end of the road, the figure who tore away the smoke and dust and walked out slowly was a strong man with a fierce body full of malice.
"Long time no see."
Zuo Qianhu's right eye was full of purple demonic luster, and he looked at Zhou Li, revealing a crazy and evil smile.
"Zhou... Son. (End of chapter)
