Chapter 62: The Red Lantern Hangs High

Previous Chapter

Two days passed quickly.

The palace is a side hall.

Zhu Tong was summoned, but he didn't see the mansion lord Situ Town, but the chief manager Zha Hui came in.

"Archsteward. ”

Zhu Tong saluted, although both of them were Situ Zhen's right-hand men, Zhu Tong knew that Zha Hui was the real confidant.

"Sit down. ”

Cha Hui waved his hand at him and sat down himself.

Zhu Tong was a little surprised, but since he came, he could only see what Zha Hui wanted to do.

Zha Hui sat upright, took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "I heard that Wu Yukun took Wu You to meet the fifth lady. ”

"Yes. ”

Zhu Tong didn't hide it, and he knew that he couldn't hide it from Zha Hui, the chief manager. He didn't dare to hide it, Situ Zhen might turn a blind eye to other things, but this kind of thing is Situ Zhen's reverse scale.

"I heard that last night, Jiang Zheneun didn't seem to return to the city palace?" Zha Hui straightened the sleeves of his wide robe and said casually.

Zhu Tong was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly replied: "Boss, this is indeed the case. ”

Over the years, Zha Hui's semi-secluded retreat has impacted the Jindan period, and all the big and small things in the city have been taken care of by Zhu Tong, and his tentacles can be said to have touched all corners of the city.

Last night, Jiang Zheneun secretly left the Shoucheng Palace, and returned at dawn, his whereabouts were secretive, and he naturally paid attention to it.

What he didn't expect was that Zha Hui would find out so quickly, which made him secretly frightened.

"Do you know where he went last night?"

Zha Hui drank tea casually, there were some things he didn't need to say clearly, Zhu Tong had good ability and was also a smart person, but Wang Chong's matter made him very unhappy, and he felt that it was necessary to knock and knock, so he would come to him.

"I should have gone to see the apricot girl with the figure of the fifth lady, and the two stayed overnight before they parted at dawn. ”

Zhu Tong didn't dare to take chances, and reported truthfully, he was actually ready to report directly to the mansion master when he got the news.

Jiang Zheneun, as the commander of the garrison of the city, is of great importance, and if this kind of character cannot be controlled, it will be very dangerous for the city.

This is also the reason why Zhu Tong didn't dare to hide it, if something happened, he, the second head of the city, naturally needed to be responsible, especially because he had something to do with the martial family, and hurriedly added: "The maid Xing'er next to the fifth lady is the fine work of the martial family, and when I see Jiang Zheneun at this time, I am afraid that there is a plan." ”

Xing'er's identity has long been grasped by Fucheng, and the reason why it is called Xizuo is because it is concealed in the shady curtain and has no value if it is exposed, so Fucheng did not move her, firstly, to give the fifth lady Wushu a face, and more importantly, to see what the martial arts family wants to do.

Zha Hui nodded, quite satisfied with Zhu Tong's performance.

"Boss, do you want to take down Jiang Zheneun immediately, just in case. Zhu Tong hurriedly said and asked.

Zha Hui shook his head, and the words changed, "There is news from the Time and Years Pavilion, and that Zhou Teng actually asked a group of sects to help him escape." ”

"Escape?"

Zhu Tong didn't know this, since Wang Chong's incident, in order to avoid suspicion, he didn't dare to interfere in the Time Pavilion.

But when Cha Hui mentioned that Zhou Teng at this time, he was afraid that it was related to what he said earlier, so he was slightly silent and replied: "Jiang Zheneun is the commander of the garrison, and the martial arts are friendly with him at this time, I am afraid that he wants to grasp the dynamics of vacating the city that week." ”

Zha Hui shook his head and said solemnly: "The mansion master personally helped him to take the throne, the purpose is to let him fight with Wu Yuanjia, how can he get out easily." ”

Zhu Tong: "What does the lord of the house mean?"

Zha Hui didn't answer directly, but looked at Zhu Tong and said seriously: "Your grandson's matter, the mansion master doesn't want you to take revenge, but in front of the big things in the mansion city, these are all small things, I think you should know it in your heart, and don't resent the mansion master." ”

Zhu Tong hurriedly got up, sincerely afraid, "Don't dare." ”

Zha Hui didn't care whether he was sincere or not, and continued: "Although Zhou Teng's cultivation is not good, he is a smart person, and Wu Yuanjia is afraid that it will not be so easy to kill him.

Now that Vientiane Dongtian and Hanyumen have been married, if there is another Huoyun Sect, with that kid's cunning, he still has the ability to fight with Wu Yuanjia.

However, it is not a good sign that these sects are forming a group, the mansion master is very dissatisfied, the mansion master's meaning, Jiang Zheneun's side will not move for the time being, as if nothing has happened. ”

Zhu Tong knew in his heart that Situ Zhen was going to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and at the same time consume the strength of both sides.

At night, bonfires have been lit on the towering city walls, illuminating the inside and outside of the city walls.

Jiang Zhen, one of the four commanders of the Guarding City Palace, led his monks to inspect all the way.

"Commander Chiang. ”

The deputy general on patrol saw Jiang Zhen's personal inspection and hurriedly saluted.

"Hmm", Jiang Zheneun looked around, and said loudly: "Now is the New Year's payment period, and the major sects are still in the city, as the generals of the city, you must not be careless, let alone let them see our jokes, I have opened my eyes and looked carefully, and you are asked if something happens." ”

He looked at the deputy general again and said, "Vice General Liu, you have sent fifty squads to patrol the four city gates day and night, in case Xiaoxiao climbs over the city wall and wants to do wrong." ”

The deputy general surnamed Liu hurriedly responded, he also had a strange feeling, it stands to reason that this Jiang commander was not on duty these days, why did he come. Moreover, Fucheng is forbidden by formations, so how can anyone dare to break through.

But he didn't dare to talk too much, and immediately ordered troops, three meters and one post, five meters and one sentry, not to mention people, this kind of defense can't fly out, even if a bird can't fly out.

Governor's Office.

As soon as Hou Yan stepped down from Zhu Tong, someone reported, "Mr. Hou, someone is looking for you." ”

Hou Yan was only Zhu Tong's subordinate, and he was not included in the ranks of Fucheng monks, so his subordinates were generally called Mr.

The current Hou Yan can be said to be a celebrity around the second manager, these subordinates can't do anything else, but they are extremely good at catering to and please, some people are looking for Hou Yan, they naturally don't dare to slack off, and they are waiting for the report.

"Who is looking for me?" Hou Yan was stunned.

"The other party said that it was your former friend who wanted to get a job in Fucheng. The subordinate replied truthfully.

Hou Yan was silent, he used to be a casual cultivator, but in order to make a living, he had made a lot of casual cultivators, and some of them had cooperated with him, and their strength was good.

Now the second chief manager regarded him as a confidant, but he didn't have any people under his command who could be used, which made him quite embarrassed, and now when he heard someone coming to vote, his heart moved, and he asked, "What is that person's name? Where is he now?"

The man did not say his name, but only said that he was a former friend of the gentleman, and he would know when the gentleman went. ”

The subordinate did not dare to hide it, saying that the man left a message and asked Hou Yan to move to the guest building next to the governor's mansion, where he would wait for him.

Hou Yan was a little surprised, but the guest building was next to the governor's mansion, so it should be fine.

I didn't doubt it, so I immediately went to the guest building, entered the door, and asked the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper saw that it was a waiting, and knew that it was the person next to the second manager, so he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly asked the counter, and the counter replied, saying that there were indeed guests on the second floor who left a message.

After listening to this, Hou Yan went upstairs directly and knocked on the door.

As soon as the door opened, a pair of big hands suddenly attacked, Hou Yan was taken aback, and he was about to resist, but he didn't even have the strength to fight back, and he was directly choked by the neck.

"If you don't want to die, don't say anything. It was an old man, Hou Yan didn't know him, he threw Hou Yan on the ground and closed the door.

"Who is Your Excellency, I am the person under the command of the second governor of Fucheng, is there any misunderstanding. ”

Hou Yan was shocked, the other party's strength was too strong, and he didn't have to guess to know that he was a master in the foundation building period, and at least it was in the late stage of foundation building, and it might even be the peak of foundation building!

"Mr. Hou, an old friend asked me to bring you a letter. The old man said indifferently.

Hou Yan's face changed, and his eyes flickered.

The Pavilion of Years.

Zhou Teng sat in the room drinking tea, very calm, but Pei Yu couldn't sit still, came to look for him, and as soon as he entered the door, he asked: "Boy, it's been three days, when are you leaving?"

Pei Yu is not worried, the longer it drags on in Fucheng, the more dangerous it becomes. Three days is enough time for Wu Yuanjia to send additional masters from the martial arts, and if there are a few more foundation building peaks, it will be a lot of fun.

Zhou Teng was not in a hurry, his eyelids took him, continued to drink tea, and said calmly: "Master Pei, you are also the master of a faction, can you calm down in case of trouble." ”

Pei Yu rolled his eyes, Zhou Tengguang was the sect master, but he was different, there were still a lot of people behind him, and he couldn't afford to die!

Although he thought Zhou Teng's idea was good, this kid had too many flowers, and he was a little worried about being sold.

It was night, the breeze was blowing, and Zhou Teng stood outside the room, looking out by the railing.

Not far away, a large red lantern hung high in a private house.

He stared at him and went back to his room.

Not long after, a big red lantern was also lit up on the second floor of the Time Museum.

Downstairs, in the courtyard where the Qingguang Sect was located, the monk immediately replied to the sect, "Sect Master, the signal has been sent from the Hanyu Gate. ”

Zong Jue had a gloomy face, before Zhou Teng came, first salute and then soldier, first threatened, saying that the Huoyun Sect would unite with the Hanyumen Vientiane Cave Heaven to attack their Qingguang Sect, and later said that there was no grudge between the two, hoping to reconcile, but hoping to let him do a small favor.

Zong Jue didn't want to agree, he hated Zhou Teng so much that his teeth itched, but he was afraid that if this madman didn't die this time, he really united with the other two factions to attack, so he could only agree.

Later, Liu Qing came to congratulate, and he immediately told Wu Yuanjia the news, striving to be innocent.

But he didn't dare not cooperate with Zhou Teng, so he pressed his hand, "Don't worry, let's see the movements of other sects first, if they move, we will move again." ”

In the room where the samurai was, all the masters were gathered.

They had already learned about the signal from various sects, and naturally knew that Zhou Teng was going to run.

Wu Yuanjia's eyes were cold, and he stroked the storage bracelet in his hand.

Lian Tu, as the person in charge of the Years and Years Pavilion, also knows this, but the duty he and Xing Yun want to leave is only to protect Zhou Teng's safety in Fucheng.

At midnight, the originally quiet Pavilion suddenly became noisy.

The fire of the Spirit Beast Sect, the flower lady of the Hundred Flowers Valley, and Zhong Yunhe of the Jinyao Palace took the monks under them and walked out of the Hall of Ages.

Soon, Geng Fu of Huangsha Castle, Zong Jue of Qingguang Sect, Miao Pavilion of Chixiao Gate, and Jiang Youshang of Wuhua Gate left with their subordinates.

"The head of the family, the people of the Spirit Beast Hundred Flowers and Jinyao Three Sects have moved, and the heads of the other sects have also left at the same time with their subordinates. The monk who was staring at the martial artist immediately reciprocated.
