The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind.

Praying mantis is an excellent hunter, but it is also inevitably eaten by birds. Although the yellow finch can catch praying mantises, it often dies in the mouth of the owl falcon. As the saying goes, if the plotter is in the situation, he will not be able to do something, and if the plotter is outside, his strength will not be enough.

"Grandpa Chu, stay!" Seeing the six people retreat, Xia Chengxuan remembered something and suddenly opened his mouth to call.

Chu Zhong had already walked outside the hall, heard his voice, quickly turned back and stood in front of him, and said with a smile: "Shizi, what else do you want the old slave to do?"

Xia Chengxuan gestured and said: "Chengxuan has a puzzle in his heart, and I hope that Grandpa Chu can answer one or two." ”

"Hehe, if you don't say it, I know why you're confused. Chu Zhong sat down at the head of the guest and chuckled, "You and Yuanchen Gongzi are like brothers, and the matter discussed tonight is so important, it is reasonable for him to be here." However, he did not come, but I was afraid that not only me, but also several of them had already seen some clues. ”

"I don't know if I should hide this from Yuanchen. He is my dearest brother, and I ought to have told him anything. It's just that he is too kind-hearted, that is, he knows that his uncle was harmed by King Yi, and he is... Alas, if he knew that I had killed my uncle for the sake of the throne, he wouldn't know how to look at me!" Xia Chengxuan said with a depressed face. Mei Yuanchen is not only his brother-in-law, but also his only friend, and will soon become his brother-in-law, Xia Chengxuan really doesn't want him to feel that he is a ruthless and ruthless person. For half a day, he kept thinking in his mind: "Yuanchen, if I tell you these things, can you pay attention to me?"

Chu Zhong persuaded: "Shizi, the son of Yuanchen is the only son in the house, and he grew up in the local eunuch's house since he was a child, so it can be said that everything is going well. I don't know that the people of Pingtou are starving and struggling to survive, nor do I see the emperor of the capital deceitful and deceitful. Alas, this temperament is naturally more gentle than decisive. If he knows about this, he will know it, and he doesn't need to deliberately tell him about it. It's just to add to the annoyance. ”

... ...

The salt gang is rich in the world, and there is naturally an industry in the capital, so Zhang Suiguang settled in a house called "Ling Chengzhai".

Ling Chengzhai is located in a secluded forest in the south of the city, covering an area of more than 100 acres, and has always been a secret meeting place of the salt gang. The night was already deep, and in the past, the lights in the courtyard should have been extinguished, but tonight it was brightly lit, and the garden and water pavilion illuminated were like day. It turned out that Zhang Suiguang was on a whim, and he suddenly found a fishing rod to fish at night! Li Xueci, the elder of the Salt Gang, bowed down and stood aside. He entered the capital more than ten days earlier than Zhang Suiguang, and the failure to assassinate Mei Siyuan made his prestige in the gang fall, and he came to atone for his sins and regain his prestige.

Zhang Suiguang held the fishing rod in one hand, grabbed the gourd in the other hand and poured wine, and sighed with satisfaction: "Hmm~~ Good wine! Elder Li, I am grateful to you for transporting this hundred jars of 'drunkenness', otherwise I would really be hungry to death! This thing is really well done! Uh~~ I'm full, let's get down to business. ”

"Yes, helper. The people on this side of the capital have gathered, a total of three hundred and fifty people, and there are more than thirty top players, even if they can break through the net!" Li Xueci said excitedly, and he couldn't help but think in his heart: "If the more than 200 killers who attacked the Anxian Salt Yun Mansion that day have half of these people's skills, it will not be difficult to chop the 100 people in the mansion into meat sauce." ”

Zhang Suiguang chuckled lightly and asked again: "What about Wu Chuanzu?"

"Back to the gang leader, the six elders of the Law Enforcement Hall and the Qinwu Hall have all gone to the Huanzhou branch hall to wait, in addition to Elder Wu and them, there are more than 120 branch masters from Shanghe County and Zhulan County. The order of the helper was issued this morning, and according to their footsteps, it would only take a day and a half at most to go to Pingshangyuan, and they could arrive at the fifth day of the first month. Li Xueci said respectfully, thinking that so many masters in the gang were dispatched this time, he couldn't help but be secretly frightened. "It's been years since I've seen a battle like this..."

"How is the Yunwang Mansion over there, how many people have been sent?" Zhang Suiguang put the wine jug on the stone table beside him, watched the movement in the water, and asked.

Seeing Zhang Suiguang's eyes, Li Xueci brought a lamp from behind him, held it by the pool, and replied: "I underestimated the Yunwang Mansion before, they sent two hundred and thirty-five people this time, and their skills are not weak, but I am afraid that compared to the three hundred and fifty people here we are not weak at all!"

"Hehe, if you don't have any strength, how dare you fight for that position? The strength of King Yun's Mansion is far more than that!" Zhang Suiguang was not surprised at all, and said lightly.

On the surface of the pool, the fish float suddenly shook heavily, as if a fish had bitten the hook.

"See, there's a fish biting the hook!!Come, come, come on, net!" Zhang Suiguang hurriedly left the stone bench and shouted excitedly, "This fish is not small, it's about to pull me down!" Li Xueci was bending down to get the fish pocket, and when he heard what he said, he stumbled and almost fell.

The fish pulled up, and it was a big catfish of three or four catties, which was thrown to the ground by Zhang Suiguang and fluttered and swung its tail vigorously.

"It's such an ugly thing!" Zhang Suiguang's face was gloomy, and he said in disappointment, "Alas, I thought I could catch a fish, but it was an ugly toad fish!" After speaking, he threw the fishing rod aside, with a look of interest, returned to the stone bench, grabbed the wine gourd, and asked, "Xia Muren's guards have figured it out?"

"Our men have been staring at it for nearly a month, and they have found out what is clear. In addition to the three hundred god sentry camp, there are still eight personal guards and ordinary and mediocre brothers in Zhuzhou. In addition, the hanging moon of Kuzen Temple and the great monks of the five Dharma characters are also here. Li Xueci said with some concern. He thought that Zhang Suiguang would have a little surprise on his face, but he didn't expect him to chuckle and say, "If it weren't for the emperor's summons, I really want to go and meet that old monk for a while!" Obviously, he already knew that these monks had gone to Pingzhou.

"It turns out that the helper already knows about this!" Li Xueci lowered his head and thought: "Listening to this, the helper has no fear of the world's No. 1 Hanging Moon Monk, could it be that he has already had a chance to win? It's only been a few years, and the helper's martial arts have actually been practiced to such a realm?"

Zhang Suiguang twisted his neck from side to side and said softly, "After a while, you will go to find bodhicitta in a while." I told him that the people of the Nine Palaces would hide first after arriving at Pingshan, and the people from King Yun's Mansion and the Salt Gang would take action. With the 800 people of King Yun's Mansion and the Salt Gang, Xia Muren couldn't survive. Once those old things in the Kuzen Temple made a move, let the people of the Nine Halls deal with it. Those monks are very strong in martial arts, and only the Nine Palaces can clean them up!" "The people of the Nine Palaces are different from ordinary masters of the rivers and lakes, and all their martial arts are murderous. Because of this ruthlessness, they can often survive in the face of some people whose martial arts are much stronger than them. If they survive, the enemy will not survive.

"Yes!" Li Xueci replied respectfully. He knew that there were also people in the Nine Halls who went to Pingzhou, but those people were brought by bodhichitta and he didn't know much. At this time, I realized that I was going to deal with the monks of Kuzen Temple.

"I'm drunk again now, and I'm very sleepy!" Zhang Suiguang yawned. got up from the stone bench, shook his arm, and said coldly: "After the people of the Yiwang Mansion are killed, you and the people of the Nine Palaces will kill the people of the Yunwang Mansion again!"
