Chapter 119: The Liu Family's Secrets

Wang Du told the story of the year, and Lu Naida and others also listened carefully.

Thirty years ago, Zhang Li was still a standing man, and he and Wang Du were like-minded, with a little ink in his chest, eager to gain fame. At that time, the dynasty was newly established, all kinds of waste were revived, the imperial examination was also restored, and the slightly ambitious people were sharpening their knives and preparing to serve the new dynasty.

Although the two of them are coarse and literate, their talents are average, and they barely passed the hospital exam, but they are both talented, but they have not passed the township exam, and they have no chance to lift people. I was going to take the exam again, but I never thought that in the late spring of the next year, Zhang Li's family was actually in the water, a family of six, and five were burned to death, but Zhang Li's body was never found, but there was no trace.

Fortunately, Zhang Li's encounter was not as miserable as Qiu Lao Wu, and he was charged with a crime. The arsonist was quickly caught, but he was a candidate from the same township, and he also failed to make the list, but he held a grudge against Zhang Li, who was slightly higher than him, and he was haunted by demons in his heart, and he set fire to kill people under impulse, and Zhang Li's life and death became a mystery from then on. But as a friend, Wang Du always believed that Zhang Li was not dead, so he gave up the exam and tried his best to track Zhang Li's traces. This chase is thirty years.

When Lu Naida and several people heard this, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, especially Huang Xing, this girl is upright by nature, dare to love and hate, and when she heard this story, she cried a lot - the most loyal love can't compare to the friendship of these two friends!

"Amitabha, the benefactor is obsessed with finding old friends, presumably moved the Bodhisattva, and now when he meets us, he should also fulfill a wish. Congratulations. "It's really small, but the tone is very old-fashioned, which caused everyone to laugh and sweep away the gloom.

"Thank you, little master. Wang Du smiled and thanked Zhending, and Zhending also replied politely, and then moved on to other topics.

Before long, several dishes came up one after another, and everyone started eating with chopsticks. During the period, the hot rice wine and the stove were served, and several people drank a lot.

Fortunately, he really doesn't drink, Lu Nai's three people are all internal, but Wang Du doesn't know the depths, but seeing that he can still boat and fish in snowy weather, it should be quite tough, but no one is drunk.

After a while, the snow outside the window was a little blowing, and it seemed that it would not stop for a while, and a few people were not in a hurry to leave. Lu Naida did not forget the purpose of this trip to the southwest, so he asked Wang Du about the news of the Liu family.

"The Liu family in Jingzhou is a big surname, and there are not a hundred people with the surname Liu, but also eighty. Is there a specific name?" Wang Du asked with a frown when he heard Lu Naida's question.

"Well, I remember that the contemporary head of the family seems to be called Liu Zhan, who should be quite wealthy in Jingzhou, and the mansion he moved to southern Anhui is not bad. Lu Naida recalled the message Lu Yuan gave him and said.

"Liu Zhan, there are at least six people in their forties named Liu Zhan as far as I know, and there are also two people who are in line with your family background and are not bad. But what other information is missing?" asked Wang Du as he picked his teeth.

"It's hard to say specifically, can you describe the situation of these two Liu Zhan families, and how they made a fortune, do you know?" Lu Naida also frowned slightly, and it was difficult to say for a while that there was any key information that had not been given.

"Well, I'll tell you about the information about these two Liu Zhans that I know. One was in the east of Jingzhou, and his father was an ironsmith in his early years, wasn't it a war at that time? He took advantage of the chaos to make a fortune, and I heard that he helped a partial division of Taizu at a critical moment, so he officially took root in Jingzhou at that time. If there is anything special, now their family still sells iron weapons, of course, there are no weapons suitable for the big battlefield.

As for the other Liu Zhan in the south of the city, they made a fortune at about the same time, but few people know how they made their fortune. I only know that they suddenly rose up in the war years, formed a self-defense force with good combat strength, and made a fortune by sending people away. But after the establishment of the dynasty, he no longer did the business of darts, which was originally to protect property and people, but now that it is safe, the business must be light. But for some reason, he always got some Tibetan things to sell, and the whole family seemed to believe in Lamaism. ”

"Hmm, is Lamaism possible?" Lu Naida's eyes flickered slightly when he heard this, to say that it is possible for Tantra to take advantage of the war in the Central Plains to preach on a large scale, but to go deep into the east and go to Anhui to do things, what is the plan?

Strictly speaking, there are tantras in Middle-earth, but these great masters who practice tantra first practice Sutra Buddhism, and then specialize in tantra, and their practice is not as mysterious as that of Tibetan Tantra, so for many years, although Tubo Tantra has tried its best to expand to the Central Plains, it has never been able to do so, and has been resisted by the Middle-earth sect.

After the establishment of this dynasty, in order to strengthen the management of Tibet, canonized the Great Treasure Dharma King of the White Sect, and the Great Treasure Dharma King also had some exchanges with Middle Earth, and the opposition between Tantra and Middle-earth Righteous Martial Arts gradually dissolved, and Middle-earth officially accepted Tantra as a righteous sect, which is a matter of this decade. In the past ten years, the Tantric mission in Middle-earth has also gone a little better.

However, according to Wang Du, the Liu family began to believe in Tantra at least thirty or forty years ago, and it is thought that it should have been supported by some Tantric forces in the war to gain a firm foothold and make a fortune. In this way, this Liu Zhan's family in the south of the city may be used as a secret branch of Tantra in Middle-earth.

"Elder Wang, as you said, are these two Liu Zhan families still in Jingzhou now?" Lu Naida asked.

"Well, after a little movement these days, Liu Zhan's family in the east of the city seems to have moved away a year ago, but Liu Zhan's family in the south of the city is still alive. Wang Du recalled and said to Lu Naida.

"Huh, it's Liu Zhan's family in the east of the city?" Lu Naida was a little confused, could it be that he was thinking in the wrong direction?

"Elder Wang, wait for the snow to get a little smaller, can you take me to Liu Zhan's house in the south of the city to have a look?" Lu Naida paused and asked Wang Du.

"Yes, but I don't know the two Liu Zhan families, but when I was still in Jingzhou a few years ago, both families gave alms to the elderly in Jingzhou who were over fifty years old, and I had to meet some people from the two families. It's okay to take you there, but whether I can get to know them or not is not something I can do. Wang Du confessed to Lu Naida, and Lu Naida smiled when he heard this.

"Naturally, I don't have to worry about my husband, I have my own means. "Just kidding, the fourth son of Lushan Qimen, how can you say that a person who walks the rivers and lakes, as long as he is not a first- or second-class force, he must give Lu Naida three points of thin noodles, just a small rich family in Jingzhou, can he get Lu Naida?

"It's good that Childe has a way, then wait for the snow to be smaller, and the little old man will take Childe there. Wang Du said with a smile that the news of his old friend now depends on Lu Naida, and he can't care about his age.

"So the king is old!"

"Childe is polite......"
