053, smart trumble (II)

Huwa couldn't help but nod her head and praised, "Makes sense! But how did you notice that?"

Ji Gu explained a little embarrassedly: "When I was in Jiuli, my identity was not Hou Gang's guard, and I often mixed with Danzhu's guards in those days, and asked them a lot of things about how to be a guard, so I knew that I didn't pretend to be like it, and if I was really a guard, I would be very incompetent......

Danzhu's personal guards may not all be "masters" like Jigu, but they have all undergone rigorous training, and the content of the training is a summary of the experience of protecting important people over the years. Of course, it is necessary to desperately protect the owner when there is an accident, but more importantly, before the accident, it is necessary to be able to find all kinds of signs of danger and make corresponding warning preparations in time.

The "experience" of Ji Gu was learned from those guards in Danzhu, and the situation encountered today was abnormal. The person in the back may be a stalker or just a passerby, but the traits he exhibits are definitely something to keep an eye out for.

Huwa nodded again and said: "Yes, yes, you haven't followed in vain this way, you have learned more and more, and people are becoming more and more clever! ”

A few people slowed down, the man three miles away slowed down, a few people picked up a little, and the man also quickened. There were other pedestrians passing by on the way, but only this one stood out from the rest.

Ji Gu rubbed his hands a little excitedly and said, "He really has a problem, do you want me to take him down for interrogation?"

Taiyi smiled bitterly: "I didn't realize that he was a monk, but if he can follow me like this three miles away, he must have cultivation in his body, and his spirit is restrained at least has a great cultivation." Twitter, you're no match for him!"

Hou Gang also shook his head and said, "This is my territory, even if he moves at the same speed as me three miles away, it is not any evidence of crime." With my status, how can I rashly take him down and interrogate him, is it also a sin to walk on my territory?"

Even if he guessed that there was something wrong with that person, his actions would not constitute any evidence of guilt, and Hou Gang, as the head of the monarch, really couldn't mess around in his own territory, otherwise he would not only be criticized by others, but also reduce his prestige.

Huwa smiled: "That's easy to do, find a wild place to turn a corner, and leave Lord Hougang's territory." If that person is going to follow me out of the road and into the woods, then it's time to ask. ”

Although this area is densely populated and prosperous, it is not without wilderness, but the mountains are not high and not so steep, there are few large beasts infested, and the boundary between it and the village and the countryside is not so obvious. The group left the avenue and walked into a dense forest, bypassing several villages and going up a hill, surrounded by rolling hills, and stopped in a place where no one was there.

Taiyi nodded and said, "It's already certain that he came for me." ”

Huwa: "It's the first time I've come here, and there is no abnormal behavior, there is no reason for such a master to do this, he can only target Hou Gang." Hiding his head and following in secret is probably ill-intentioned. ”

Taiyi smiled bitterly: "What exactly does he mean, it will soon be clear, we seem to have created an opportunity for him, he has already come." ”

They were followed by a middle-aged man, with a very neat beard, a light coat under the burqa, and a neat belt, who did not carry any luggage when he hurried, and did not have any murder weapons hidden on his body. When Hou Gang and the others entered the barren mountains and forests, the distance he followed was no longer three miles away, but approached rapidly.

The middle-aged man walked down the hill and saw Hou Gang resting on a stone from a distance, Ji Gu stood not far away and looked around vigilantly, Huwa stood aside, and Taiyi stood behind him. The appearance of these four people seems to be Hou Gang's respect, Taiyi is like a housekeeper, Huwa is like a servant, and Jigu is obviously a guard.

The man took advantage of the shelter of the mountains and forests, restrained his aura and approached quietly, deliberately avoiding the direction where Ji Gu was standing, and came to the left rear of Hou Gang. Ji Gu and the others didn't seem to be aware, he showed hesitation, thought about it, and suddenly walked out of the hiding place, Hou Gang and the others seemed to be taken aback.

Hou Gang subconsciously stood up, and said with a vigilant look on his face: "What person?"

The man ignored the muttering, only looked at Hou Gang and replied: "I am a passerby, I see how familiar you are, may I ask if you are Lord Hou Gang?"

Hou Gang nodded and said, "Yes, it's me!"

The man asked again with some excitement: "Are you the head of the Hou Gang clan who left here more than ten years ago, and now you are finally back?"

Hou Gang: "Yes, I'm back, may I ask you ......?"

The man interrupted him and said, "I am Liang Jineng, the elder of Lianghuachuan, and I have had several relationships with you. Although you are an adult now, your description has not changed much from when you were a teenager, so I can still recognize you at a glance. ”

Hou Gang: "Oh, it turned out to be Jineng Immortal, I remembered, I did see you when I was young." Immortal Ji Neng just saw me at the market, right? Why didn't you say hello at the time, but followed me all the way, what does this mean?"

Hearing this, the tiger baby's heart moved slightly, and she remembered another thing. Lianghuachuan is a sect, its approximate location is about 100 miles away from here, south of the mouth of the river where the water flows into the big river, and there is a big river across this area. The reason why Huwa has an impression of this sect is because two hundred years ago, there was a monk in Lianghuachuan, known as a hundred-year-old boy.

Not long ago, the hundred-year-old boy and Mr. Zhangji led a group of evil cultivators to attack the Yandi Immortal Palace, and then they were beheaded by Bo Yi. Now that Huwa and the others have just come to the territory of the Hougang clan, they have actually met another Lianghuachuan monk, who also has a great cultivation.

Hou Gang called Liang Ji Neng "Ji Neng Immortal Chang", which is the habit of the local ordinary people, and the people in the nearby area are honored by the people in the Lianghua River. With Hou Gang's status, there is no need to use this honorific title, but Hou Gang behaves humbly. To be honest, in front of these people, Liang Ji Neng couldn't afford to be called an immortal.

Liang Ji Neng stepped forward and said: "There are people coming and going on the avenue, and there are some things that are difficult to say, but if you continue to rush to Yincheng, I may have to stop it." At this moment, in this desolate and uninhabited land, it can be regarded as giving me a chance to speak well, may I ask you that you are going back to your hometown to inherit the position of the king?"

Hou Gang frowned slightly: "I am the head of the Hou Gang clan, and Ji Neng Immortal is not a member of my clan, so there is no need to ask about these things!"

Liang Jineng said to himself: "Not long ago, Lord Chonghua sent an envoy to Yuncheng to announce that you have made great contributions to the emperor Danzhu who assisted the southern tour of Jiuli, and that he will return to his hometown and accept the canonization of the Son of Heaven in the near future, and this matter is well known. I left my hometown at the age of fifteen and returned at the age of twenty-eight, I thought you had learned a skill, but today I saw that you are still an ordinary mortal.

In this case, why should you go back to your hometown to fight for the position of the canonized prince of heaven, it will not only lead to civil strife among the clansmen, but also your own life will not be guaranteed. Although your guard is very cultivated, do you know that there is something wrong with his origin, and besides, it is difficult for him alone to protect your integrity.

You might as well go to Lianghuachuan with me, I can accept you as a disciple and pass on the secret method of the immortal family. If you have a relationship with the immortal road, why should you care about the dispute over mundane affairs, if you have succeeded in cultivation in the future and still have the intention of leading the clansmen, it is not too late to return to your hometown to be the prince. This is your great opportunity, and it is also a way of life that I pointed out to you, please follow me, don't miss it!"

This monk's eyesight is good, it is estimated that when Ji Gu unfolded the Yuan Shen and found him just now, he had also been observing Ji Gu and Hou Gang and others, and he actually saw that there was something wrong with Ji Gu's origin, and he should have noticed that he might be a demon cultivator.

Huwa and the others were a little stunned, Liang Jineng's words were full of warnings, telling Hou Gang not to go back to fight for the position of Na Bojun, otherwise it would bring civil strife to the Hou Gang clan, and at the same time, there would be worries about their lives. He also pointed out a path to Hou Gang, worshiped him as a teacher, followed him to the Lianghua River to cultivate, and did not have to come back for the time being.

Although this monk's eyesight is good, he can see that there is a problem with Jigu's background, but he doesn't see that Hou Gang, Taiyi, and Huwa's cultivation is actually higher than him, thinking that Hou Gang is still an ordinary person, and he also treats Taiyi and Huwa as ordinary housekeepers and servants, which is somewhat speechless.

Huwa's face was slightly gloomy and said: "Hou Gang is not competing with anyone for the position of Bojun, he is the head of the Hou Gang clan, and this time he returned to his hometown to be canonized by the Son of Heaven, he is Bojun." ”

The head of the monarch refers to the head of the tribe with a territory, and after receiving the title officially canonized by the Son of Heaven, he can be called Bo and honored as Bojun. This position was originally Hou Gang's, and as long as he was alive, no one was qualified to fight for it. When Cangjie took him away, he had said that Hou Gang would return before the age of thirty, and if there was no definite news after the deadline, then the Hou Gang clan would establish another king.

And now, thirteen years have passed, Hou Gang is twenty-eight years old, and Lord Chonghua sent a messenger to send Hou Gang's news. Hou Gang not only did not die, but also made great contributions in the land of Jiuli, and he will return soon, and the messenger of the Son of Heaven to canonize Bojun is also about to arrive. It may be precisely because of this news that some people in the Hougang clan have different intentions.

Liang Jineng misunderstood Huwa's words a little, thinking that he meant something else, but ignored Huwa, and simply said to Hou Gang: "It is precisely because you have not returned, so the head of the Hou Gang clan has not been officially canonized by the Son of Heaven over the years. If today's envoy is coming, the person who is canonized does not necessarily have to be you, as long as you are the head of the Hougang clan.

Hou Lechang has been the city lord of Yuncheng for twenty years, and in the more than ten years since you left, you have also been the head of the Hou Gang clan. Why should you fight with him, you can't fight, but you lose your life in vain. Hou Lechang is nearly fifty years old, and you are twenty years younger than him, so there is no need to worry.

You follow me into the Lianghuachuan Sect to practice the secret method of the immortal family, if you succeed in cultivation, the years will be long, and you don't have to be in a hurry, even if you wait until Hou Lechang dies, it is not too late to leave the mountain Ren Bojun. You go with me, leave a book in the clan, and say that you will temporarily resign from the position of the head of the monarch, and I am willing to elect Hou Lechang as the head of the monarch, and Hou Lechang will accept the canonization of the Son of Heaven, which is the way to protect yourself.
