Chapter 6 Luoxia City (New Book Collection Recommendation)
In the silent night, the starry sky shimmered, like countless silver beads, densely inlaid in the dark night. The Milky Way is like a faintly glowing white ribbon across the starry sky.
In an attic of the Difu Headquarters, as long as a figure sitting on the side, the dancing candle flame in the room looms. This is Zhang Chen's room. I saw Zhang Chen casually flipping through the books in his hand, and at the same time whispered to the door: "Come in." ”
"Crunch...."The door to the room was pushed open, and a muscular man with a long scar on his face walked in.
"Mansion Master!" this person is Shura, one of the thirteen deacons of the underworld. The reason why Shura was able to become one of the thirteen deacons of the underworld was not because of how strong Shura's kung fu was, but because of Shura's light skills.
"Shura, it seems that your light skills have improved recently. This time, it was more than fifty paces away from me that I found out about your arrival. Zhang Chen didn't raise his head, continued to flip through the books in his hand, and said lightly.
"Hehe, after so many years of cultivation by the mansion master, if there is no progress at all, it will not be a loss of face for the mansion master. Shura said with a grin.
Zhang Chen slowly put down the book in his hand, slowly stood up, looked at Shura and said, "You also have a good understanding." Let's not talk about this for the time being, what about the three people from Yulin Villa?"
"The three of them have long since left. Shura said respectfully.
"The goal has been achieved, and it is time to leave. Zhang Chen said leisurely.
"Mansion Master, I don't know which of the two Dharma Protectors will be sent to carry out the mission of assassinating Luo Tianming this time?" Shura asked.
"Hehe, Shura, you don't think that our two protectors of the underworld will be able to complete this mission. The target of this assassination can be different from the past, not to mention the identity of the valley lord of Luoxia Valley, but his strength in the number one ranking of rivers and lakes is far from being comparable to the smiling Buddha and the goshawk. Zhang Chen said with a smile.
"That ......" Hearing Zhang Chen's words, Shura didn't know what to say. Even the two Dharma Protectors couldn't be sent out to carry out this mission, could it be that the Mansion Master was planning to take action himself? Shura couldn't help but think.
"In the underworld, I am the only one who can compare with Luo Tianming. So this time, I'm going to take it personally!" Zhang Chen said.
Hearing Zhang Chen's words, he immediately confirmed the thoughts in Shura's heart, but then after thinking about it carefully, Shura hurriedly said: "Mansion Master, you are the backbone of my underworld, how can you personally take risks, let's leave it to the people below to do it." If the two Dharma Protectors can't do it, then add the four Hades, and if it doesn't work, it's a big deal to let the thirteen deacons travel with them. ”
"A lot of people will only startle snakes, but it is much more convenient for me to be alone. Zhang Chen said.
"That being said.... But ....."
Without waiting for Shura to finish speaking, Zhang Chen waved his hand to interrupt what Shura wanted to say, and said: "It is really not easy for my underworld to be able to stand in the rivers and lakes for decades, and that Luo Tianming is not an ordinary person, if you let the brothers in the mansion carry it out, I am afraid it will only add more casualties." ”
Shura nodded, he also understood this truth, and then said: "Since the mansion master has already decided, no matter how much his subordinates persuade him, it will be useless, but the other brothers in the mansion know that they will definitely not agree. ”
"Don't worry, I've already arranged the affairs in the house. After I leave, there will be two Dharma protectors on the left and right in the house to negotiate and deal with it. It's you, I want to take you with me on this mission, what do you think?" Zhang Chen looked at Shura and said with a faint smile.
"Me?" Shura pointed to herself, thinking she was hallucinating.
"That's right! Your light skills mainly claim to be the second in the rivers and lakes, and no one dares to say that it is the first. Maybe your light skills can help me carry out the assassination when the time comes. Zhang Chen said.
"The subordinates are willing to follow the mansion master!" Shura was overjoyed when he heard Zhang Chen's words. Hurriedly knelt down on one knee. Originally, I came to Zhang Chen tonight for this thing.
Zhang Chen helped Shura up and patted Shura's shoulder vigorously, a little moved.
"Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles. Without further ado, let's set off for the Valley of Luoxia and wait for an opportunity to act. Zhang Chen looked at Shura and said. Shura also nodded heavily.
In this way, two figures suddenly jumped out of the attic, and in a few flashes, the figures of the two disappeared under the quiet night sky.
—————————— my dividing line
The twilight is dim, the remnant sun is like blood, the sunset on the edge of the city tower is like the sunset with gold edges, it is round at this time, the light is shining, the dazzling eye mask is like a dream, it is not real, the last trace of the remnant sun city tower is integrated, the golden light is bright, swallowing the sky and the fertile sun.
This place is the only place to go to Luoxia Valley, Luoxia City. Luoxia City is managed by Luoxia Valley. At this time, outside the city gate, the disciples who guarded the city tower were also from Luoxia Valley, and they were domineering. And the endless stream of pedestrians outside the city tower also lined up in a long line at this time, waiting for inspection and then entering the city tower. At this time, the two figures were standing quietly not far from the city gate, looking at the long line lightly. These two people are Zhang Chen and Shura, who came from a day's journey.
"Mansion Master, this is Luoxia City. Looking at it like this, it seems that this Luoxia City is also managed by Luoxia Valley. Shura looked at the disciple who was protecting the city and said lightly.
"It is not possible to allow others to sleep peacefully next to the couch, not to mention that Luoxia Valley is a first-class force, and it is not surprising that it can sit on a city. Zhang Chen said leisurely.
At this moment, the originally quiet city gate suddenly became noisy, and the sudden scene immediately attracted many people who were about to enter the city, and they all watched to see what was going on. Zhang Chen and Shura also glanced at each other and hurriedly walked over.
I saw that at the city gate, a team that seemed to be merchants was stopped by the disciples who protected the city. There were about ten people in this team, the leader was a fat man in fine clothes, and behind the fat man were two carriages, and the rest of the team was around the carriage, and it seemed that there should be some valuables on the carriage.
I only saw that the fat man who was the leader was smiling and said to the disciples who protected the city at this time: "A few little brothers, below is Jin Yuan, and others call me Jin Fatzi, a serious medicinal herb merchant, not a troublemaker." This time I came to Luoxia City just to deliver some medicinal materials to the shopkeeper Liu of Qingyuan Hall in the city, and I also ask you little brothers to be accommodating, let's go over. ”
"Hmph, what a golden fat man and a silver fat man, we don't know each other, master. Besides, if you say you're not a troublemaker, don't you? You have to at least give the master a few proofs that you're not. Otherwise, if it spreads, others will still think that our Luoxia City is like a vegetable market, and we can enter if we want to?" said the disciple of the city guard.
To say that this golden fat man is also a businessman, he immediately heard what it meant from the mouth of this disciple who protected the city. So with a smile on his face, he slowly moved his steps, approached the front of the disciple who protected the city, skillfully took out a small cloth bag from his arms, and put it in the hands of the disciple who protected the city. Looking at the heavy appearance of this cloth bag, there must be a lot of silver in it. The golden fat man smiled and said, "Little brother, a little heart." Later, a few brothers will drink tea. ”
Seeing that this golden fat man was so knowledgeable about the market, this disciple of the city protector quietly put the cloth bag in his hand into his arms. When he felt the heavy weight, his eyebrows suddenly danced, and he said: "I see that Boss Jin is also a businessman, so I won't embarrass you." Take your party inside, but say ahead of hand that once you're in town, don't mess with it. ”
"That's that, that's. The golden fat man nodded hurriedly, then turned around and waved to the convoy and walked into the city.
The actions of this city protector disciple were taken seriously by Zhang Chen and Shura. Shura was a straight man, and he couldn't help but curse in a low voice when he saw what these city protectors were doing. But Zhang Chen seemed to be used to this kind of thing, so he just shook his head helplessly.
Because Zhang Chen and Shura were both dressed relatively plainly, they were not embarrassed by these disciples who protected the city when they entered the city, and after asking for the most basic information, the two of them successfully entered Luoxia City.
The two people who entered Luoxia City did not rush to Luoxia Valley, but found an inn called "Knowing the World" to live in. The reason why Zhang Chen settled here was because during his inquiry, he learned that this "Knowing the World" inn was a well-informed inn in Luoxia City. Every day, people on the rivers and lakes come in and out of this inn. And what Zhang Chen lacks most now is news. Since it was already dark, Zhang Chen and Shura returned to their respective rooms to rest after a hasty meal.
———————— my dividing line
Early the next morning, the inn became very lively, and Zhang Chen and Shura also walked out of the room and came to the first floor of the inn at this time. At this time, the first floor was already full of people, and Zhang Chen and the two found a table near the window and sat down one after another.
If nothing else, it is also easy to inquire about the news in this crowded place in the rivers and lakes, no, when Zhang Chen and the two of them just sat down, they heard the things discussed by the people next to them.
"I said, in a few days it will be the 60th birthday of the Lord of the Falling Valley, what good things have you prepared to celebrate your birthday?" asked a fat man with a mouth full of oil, munching on the chicken leg in his hand, at a thin man beside him.
"Hey, I'm worried about that, too. Every time this is the birthday of the lord of the valley, I don't know what to give. If I can't get another decent gift this year, I'm afraid that today's tax will be doubled. The thin man put down the chopsticks in his hand and said with a sad face.
"Also, this valley lord's family has a great cause, and there is no shortage of gold and silver treasures. The fat man also said: "Why don't you go and find a good weapon?" After all, this valley lord is a well-known master in the rivers and lakes, and for a master, a satisfactory weapon should be more liked than those things outside the body. ”
"How can it be so easy as you say, most of the divine weapons on the rivers and lakes have been hidden by those masters. Where can I find it? ”
