The book was picked up last time, and Zhu Yuanzhang and his entourage, who were aware of the people's feelings, encountered the attack of a mysterious master on Hongwu Street. The 10,000-strong enemy "Puppet Chen" of Yipintang Dizi No. 1, and the dark blade Assasin, who ranked ninth on the Jianghu killer list, forced Zhu Yuanzhang and his party into a desperate situation with the cooperation of the two masters.

What's even more deadly is that the innate fire spirit attracted by the Holy Flame Order has brought unprecedented disasters to this Yingtian City. Seeing that a catastrophe would be inevitable, Wu Xin, a mysterious master from Tianji Pavilion, suddenly appeared. This white-haired man, who is almost demonic, easily resolved the crisis with just a gesture.

The group of people who did not die finally had a chance to breathe, but the causal changes caused by it did not end. The innate fire spirit who escaped, the remnants of the Mingjiao party who arranged this assassination operation, and the secret contest between several forces has just begun. And the person in the center of this huge whirlpool was sleeping on the straw mat of Bao'en Temple at this time.

More than 10 days have passed since the crisis of that day. The people of Yingtian City, who escaped from the nightmare, began to repair their homes on the ruins with the help of the city defense army and the Ministry of Industry.

The battle between the Innate Fire Spirit and the four Heavenly Phenomena Realm masters that day, although they tried their best to control the damage, still caused a lot of casualties. Hongwu Street, located at the center of the incident, is even more in disarray, and it will take at least half a year or so to fully recover as before.

In the past ten days, several people who followed Zhu Yuanzhang and his party that day finally got a chance to breathe. Yan Jin and Ao Cangfeng, who were the most seriously injured, lay in bed for seven or eight days, while our diligent Emperor Hongwu, although he was frightened to a certain extent, only returned to the palace to recuperate for a day, and began to deal with the matter of repairing the house and pacifying the people.

The three worshippers of the Qin Heavenly Prison were in retreat to heal their injuries at this time because they had exhausted their true essence in the battle with the innate fire spirit. On the contrary, Xi Yingzhen, who was almost killed by the female devil's blow, recovered the fastest with the help of the elixir provided by Wu Xin.

Among these people, I am afraid that only Bai Xiaoyi, a guy with big nerves, can still live his life without heart and lungs.

Perhaps because he was too bored, Bai Xiaoyi actually brought out three jars of fine wine from the underground palace under the pagoda. In order to be less ostentatious, he deliberately chose two kinds of wine from the upper layer and mixed them with a jar of Du Kang.

But looking at these three jars of fine wine called "Grape Brewing", "Tu Su" and "Du Kang" respectively, Bai Xiaoyi was in trouble for a while. He knew how precious these wines were, but he didn't know how to open or store them. If he recklessly opened it, but spoiled such a good thing, he would have to regret his intestines. After thinking about it for a long time, the rogue boy finally just put the three jars of wine in the side hall and did not continue to move them.

On this day, just as Bai Xiaoyi was thinking about whether he should go to Shen Mansion and ask Shen Wansan to help him taste wine. Outside the gate of Bao'en Temple, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves.

A moment later, three brocade-clad guards dressed in flying fish costumes strode in. As soon as he saw Bai Xiaoyi, who was basking in the sun in the yard, he stepped forward respectfully, hugged his fists and saluted:

"In Xiamayi, I have seen...... Little Celestial Master ......"

The title of Little Heavenly Master was called by Bai Xiaoyi, and he pointed to his nose and said:

"You called me?"

The man named Ma Yi said very heartily:

"Exactly. ”

Turning over his body, Bai Xiaoyi replied with a fist in fear;

"I wonder what the adults are doing?"

took out a secret letter from his arms, and held it in front of Bai Xiaoyi with both hands:

"This is a secret letter that Your Majesty has asked us to hand over to you. ”

As soon as he heard that it was handed over to him by Zhu Yuanzhang, Bai Xiaoyi hurriedly took it. Before he could open the letter, a few Jinyi guards who had finished their errands bowed down and said goodbye:

"I'll wait until I have official business, so I won't bother the little Heavenly Master Qingxiu, and I will leave!"

After that, a few Jinyi Wei Qianhu adults left the courtyard without looking back.

Looking blankly at the backs of several men leaving, Bai Xiaoyi was a little unable to come back to his senses for a while. These are the thousands of households of Jinyiwei, and on weekdays, he doesn't even dare to look at the characters, what's wrong today, why is he suddenly so respectful to a small person in the market.

Scratching his head suspiciously, the rogue boy opened the lacquered letter. On the letterhead that you knew was of excellent texture as soon as you touched it, there were simply a few words written like this:

"A few days ago, the widow was suddenly attacked and killed, but fortunately several chivalrous soldiers helped him. I invite you to go to Qintianjian tomorrow at noon. At that time, meritorious deeds will be rewarded to show the gratitude of the widows. I also hope that Xi Zhenren, Brother Bai and Brother Ao can go to the appointment on time, Zhu Yuanzhang. ”

When he saw the words "Reward for meritorious deeds", Bai Xiaoyi couldn't control the excitement in his heart, and shouted in the direction of the inner hall:

"Master!! we're going to send !! this time"

Early the next morning, Bai Xiaoyi, who had been thinking about what the reward was all night, was the first to wake up. He didn't care how Xi Yingzhen and Ao Cangfeng's injuries recovered, this young man who was a little obsessed with money generally dragged the two people who hadn't woken up much from Bao'en Temple out of Bao'en Temple when they got ducks on the shelves.

By the time the three of them arrived at the Qin Heavenly Prison, there was still a full hour before noon.

When the deacon's attendant brought the three of them into the stargazing hall, Qin He and a monk were drinking tea and waiting for them to arrive. The strangest thing is that Shen Wansan, the richest man in the world, Shen Yuanwai, unexpectedly appeared here.

After a few simple greetings, everyone sat down together, gossiping and waiting for today's main lord to come.

The offerings of the three Qin Heavenly Eunuchs seemed to be very interested in the origin of the Innate Fire Spirit and the relationship between Bai Xiaoyi and that Wu Xin. They tried to get something out of the mouth of the rogue boy one by one, but how could Bai Xiaoyi, who also had a lot of ghost ideas, be taken to the ditch by these old guys. Having made up a lot of nonsense that ghosts wouldn't believe, he finally perfunctory the three curious offerings. Just when he and Ao Cangfeng couldn't stand the very boring topics of a few old people, outside the door of the main hall, an old man's hearty laughter suddenly sounded.

Everyone looked around, and saw Zhu Yuanzhang, who was dressed in civilian clothes, accompanied by Yan Jin, walking towards them with a smile and a smile.

As soon as they saw the Hongwu Emperor coming, everyone present knelt down and bowed:

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

waved his hand casually, and Zhu Yuanzhang, who was in a good mood, said very happily:

"Excuse me, this is not in the court, there are not so many rules. ”

Sitting on the throne with a heavy butt, the long-faced old man glanced at everyone present with satisfaction, and then he said loudly:

"Today, it's not a big deal. Just a few days ago, the widow encountered an attack, and all of you are heroes who have contributed to the escort. I was going to give a reward to the court, but it's not easy to publicize the attack on the widow, so I have to keep everything simple and do it here, and I hope you don't mind. ”

None of the people present were respectful to this emperor, and they didn't dare to talk even if they were laughing. But only Bai Xiaoyi, a kid who is not afraid of death, suddenly said with a hippie smile;

"Your Majesty, we don't mind all that pomp. Just tell us what the reward is, that's the main thing. ”

Glancing at this bold boy, Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said:

"Okay! I just like your straightforward temperament!" The old man looked at this admiring young man with playful eyes, and asked jokingly: "Stinky boy, you have the greatest credit this time, tell me, what do you want?"

Scratching his head and thinking about it, Bai Xiaoyi, who still knows something about how to deal with people, said with a smile:

"I'm just an ordinary ordinary citizen, how dare I ask Your Majesty for something. Whatever you give, the boy will take it all. ”

Pointing at this young man who was a little more slippery than a loach, Zhu Yuanzhang said with great satisfaction:

"Well, since you don't want to be an official in the court, how about I reward you with three wishes? As long as I do what I can, I don't do anything that hurts heaven and reason, and I will promise you whatever you want!"

Looking at the old man in the seat in disbelief, Bai Xiaoyi asked in a little panic:

"Are you serious!?"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled:

"You have no jokes!"

This time, Bai Xiaoyi thought for a long time, and finally he asked tentatively:

"Inside...... Your Majesty, if I want that riverside tower on Guyu Street, is that okay?"

With a puzzled expression, Zhu Yuanzhang asked curiously:

"Of course you can, isn't it just a restaurant, if you want, I'll arrange someone to buy it for you." It's just that you didn't say you were going to go on a tour, why did you suddenly become interested in doing business?"

Scratching his head with a smile, Bai Xiaoyi explained with some embarrassment:

"This restaurant is not what I wanted, Your Majesty, do you remember the wine shop I took you to?"

The long-faced old man nodded thoughtfully:

"Oh...... The one you said was opened by your brother and sister-in-law?"

"Yes! I was an orphan when I was a child, and if it weren't for my fat brother and sister-in-law taking care of me, I'm afraid I would have starved to death. Therefore, I want to get down the riverside building for them, so that their husband and wife will have a stable place in the future, and they don't have to work so the street. ”

Nodding appreciatively, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said:

"That's right, you kid is really affectionate and righteous, I like it. What else?"

After a slight hesitation, Bai Xiaoyi boldly said:

"That'...... The Bao'en Temple in the south of the city, can you give it to me too?"
