Chapter Seventy-Eight: Yunnan Affairs
Yunnan, Kunming City, these days of Kunming City, jubilant, the air in the city seems to have a faint feeling of boiling, all the reason is that Wu Yingxiong, the prince of Pingxi, wants to marry the princess of Jianning of the imperial court, once the princess is married, this is what a royal grace, the people in the city feel that there is light on their faces.
King Pingxi's favor is not declining, and even the royal family has married the princess, which shows how powerful the current King of Pingxi is.
Gui Zhong walked on the streets of Kunming City, looking at many traders and ordinary people with red faces, talking endlessly, most of them were talking about the wedding of the prince of Pingxi.
"Kangxi is a good means, although he can't make Wu Sangui give up the rebellion by marrying the princess this time, it can be regarded as a first-class delaying strategy, with this wedding, I am afraid that there will be a lot more preparation time left for him, and it seems that the pacification of the three feudatories is also coming soon. ”
Gui Zhong naturally doesn't think that the relationship between Kangxi and Wu Sangui is really so suitable for monarchs and ministers, this pair of monarchs and ministers, one wants to rebel, and the other wants to cut the domain, which is not a simple role, and the current big wedding is just a political show.
Of course, the common people naturally don't know about the mysteries and don't care, they just can't be happy.
In the west of Kunming, it is the hotel where the princess stays, and if Gui Zhong finds the right location, everything will be easy to do.
When night fell, a black shadow jumped into the hotel, and this person was naturally Gui Zhong.
The princess got married, and the wedding team that accompanied her were all elite armor soldiers, at this time, this line was heavily guarded and guarded, and there were many sentry posts, but now Gui Zhong's cultivation has reached an unfathomable point, plus his light work, this line can naturally come and go freely.
After investigating the halls, in less than half an hour, Gui Zhong had already found Wei Xiaobao's traces.
A breeze blew, there was already one more person in the room, Wei Xiaobao was just lying on the bed, and he was startled by this one!
"What people!"
He let out a low snort, a wisp of cold air emanated, and a short dagger appeared in his hand heavily, this dagger is indestructible, it is a supreme divine blade, how many times has he saved his life, so Wei Xiaobao has always kept this dagger close to him, and now he feels a little wrong, and he immediately holds the blade in his hand, and the reaction is considered fast.
Gui Zhong nodded secretly, this Wei Xiaobao has also been trained, calm in case of trouble, quick response, although kung fu is not good, it will not suffer too much loss.
"Xiaobao, it's me!"
Stretching out his hand a little, a glimmer of light appeared, the candle in the room had been lit, and Gui Zhong's figure fell into Wei Xiaobao's eyes.
"Ah, it's Big Brother Dao Chief?"
With an exclamation, Wei Xiaobao's face suddenly became complicated.
"Hehe, why are you sad, I came today to bring you a great benefit. ”
Gui Zhong smiled faintly, vaguely understood Wei Xiaobao's thoughts, in the final analysis, it was because of the martial arts conference in Fuhu Village, even Chen Jinnan was injured under Gui Zhong's sword, and there were many people who would be seriously injured in heaven and earth, and there was also a Qian Laoben who was killed by him with a sword, Wei Xiaobao's complicated emotions at the moment were understandable.
"Alas, Brother Dao Chang, I really didn't expect that there was such a big change at the martial arts conference some time ago, and even my master was seriously injured under your sword. ”
Wei Xiaobao said distressedly.
"You kid, you don't have to worry about these things, we all know the things between me and Mr. Chen, it's not a deep hatred, under the war, the grievances are all over, I won't go to the trouble of the Heaven and Earth Society in the future, and the helmsman Chen won't find trouble with me, you should be able to think of the joints, okay, this matter is over, needless to say, I came to you this time to find you for a big matter." ”
"What's the big deal?"
"Hehe, your kid's forgetfulness is really big, do you remember what I told you some time ago, the secret of the eight books and forty-two chapters!"
Gui Zhong said as he said that a piece of leather appeared in his hand.
"Maps spelled out?"
Wei Xiaobao's eyes lit up suddenly, he was still very interested in this treasure map, but he didn't expect to spell out the map so quickly, so he hurriedly ran over and grabbed the map with one hand.
"This is the treasure map, this treasure is outside the gate, I once went once, took something from it, but the treasure is too huge, there are many of them, it is not easy to take them out of the primeval mountain forest, now this map is useless to me, when you want to go treasure hunting, just follow the map, but remember not to leak the rumors, this Manchu treasure is not trivial, there are more people staring at it. ”
Gui Zhong admonished solemnly.
"Don't worry, Brother Dao Chief, I'll be careful myself. ”
Wei Xiaobao nodded solemnly, he naturally knew the weight of this kind of treasure map, once it was known by others, it would immediately set off a huge turmoil.
"Okay, now that our agreement is completed, I'll go, take care of yourself, and besides, Wu Sangui is not so easy to deal with, this Yunnan is his territory, you have to be careful here." ”
Gui Zhong said a few more words, and suddenly his thoughts moved, and he asked instead, "Xiaobao, where is the Nine Tribulations Master now?"
"Ah, master, her old man is in this hotel, this time she came to Yunnan, she also came with her, I don't know what to do. ”
"Okay, then you come with me, I have something to say to Shitai. ”
Wei Xiaobao took Gui Zhong and soon arrived at the residence of the Nine Tribulation Masters.
This time when he came to Yunnan, the Nine Tribulations Master changed into a palace maid and blended into the marriage team, with Wei Xiaobao taking care of him, naturally there was no problem at all.
"Huh, Zhong'er, why did you come to Yunnan too?"
When the Nine Tribulations Master saw Gui Zhong, she asked in surprise.
"Uncle Shi, I came here this time to find Xiaobao and talk to him about something, I didn't expect you to be there, Uncle Shi, that couldn't be better. ”
Gui Zhong smiled slightly, but there was a little weirdness in his smile.
"Well, what, you're looking for me?"
"Yes, hehe, Uncle Shi, I came to tell you that my Uncle Yuan has returned to Middle-earth, and he stayed with me in Huashan for a while a few days ago. ”
Sure enough, as soon as Gui Zhong's words came out, the Nine Tribulations Master was immediately shocked, and her complexion changed greatly.
"What? He, is he back?"
"I'm back, and he said he was going to come to you to catch up, but I didn't expect you to come to Yunnan, uncle. ”
"He wants to see me, where is he now?"
The Nine Tribulation Masters looked in a hurry, as if they would set off as soon as they knew their whereabouts. Let Gui Zhong shake his head helplessly, this emotional thing is really unimaginable, they are all so adults, and they still behave like this.
"I told him that you went to the capital, and I don't know if he has any news of you, but it doesn't matter, I have left a faint mark along the way, and if he can't find it, he will come to me, and then you can meet." ”
"Okay, that's good. ”
The Nine Tribulations Master's face was faintly red, and the situation looked very weird.
In Wei Xiaobao's opinion, the conversation between the two was completely confused, and he didn't know what it meant at all.
In his impression, the master of the Nine Tribulations has always been in a calm and indifferent mood, and when has he ever behaved like this, it is really strange.
"Uncle Shi, you don't have to worry, my Uncle should come to Yunnan in the next two days, let's talk about other things for the time being. Gui Zhong beckoned Wei Xiaobao to come forward, "Xiaobao, take out the map." ”
Wei Xiaobao was slightly stunned, then reacted and took out the treasure map from his cuff.
"What is this?"
Looking at the actions of the two, the Nine Tribulation Masters were a little puzzled.
"Uncle Shi, please see, this is the secret of the Manchu Qing Dynasty's eight books and forty-two chapters, which hides a treasure map, which is a treasure collected by the Manchu Qing outside the Guan, and there is a legend that it is the place where the Manchu dragon vein is located. ”
Gui Zhong pointed to the treasure map in his hand and said to the Nine Tribulations.
Then he recounted his trip to the Changbai Mountain realm.
"Feng Shui has always been illusory, Zhong'er, since you have been to the place where the treasure is hidden, it seems that it should have nothing to do with the Manchu dragon vein, but the gold, silver and jewelry in it are somewhat useful, and since the Manchurians themselves believe in the dragon vein, they might as well make a fuss about this, maybe it can be of some use to the anti-Qing Dynasty and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty. ”
The Nine Tribulations Master listened to Gui Zhong's words, sighed, her expression was very complicated, today's events, no matter which one of them had a great impact on her state of mind, first the news of Yuan Chengzhi, and then the Manchu treasures, one after another, even with her years of practice, her mind was a little trance.
"I've handed over this map to Xiaobao now, Uncle Shi, if you have any ideas, just tell him, I don't have the heart to participate in this kind of thing. ”
Gui Zhong's tone is very flat, he is really not interested in anything against the Qing Dynasty and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, this world is a martial arts world, if it is the real historical world, he is afraid that he also has the mind to operate, with the insight and wisdom of his later generations, maybe he can succeed, but now, all his spirit is thinking of martial arts practice, and he is really not interested in other things, as for this treasure map, others can use it how they want, and it has nothing to do with him.
"Alas, anti-Qing and Ming, the situation of the Manchu Qing Dynasty has become more and more stable in these years, and there is little hope for this matter, and the power of my Ming royal family is almost lost, even if it overthrows the Manchu Dynasty, it is just a change of dynasty, as for the Ming Dynasty, after all, it has passed, that's it, Xiaobao, this treasure map will be handed over to you, if you don't have any ideas, just talk to your master, maybe he has any ideas. ”
The Nine Tribulations Master's tone was desolate, there was a taste of discouragement, Gui Zhong nodded silently, it seems that his uncle also sees the situation in the world very clearly, and knows that it is not realistic to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, even if there is not much hope for success with this batch of treasures.
"I'm afraid the most important thing is Yuan Chengzhi's matter, my uncle seems to be very affectionate, and I don't know what the result will be between her and Uncle Yuan. ”
Gui Zhong is helpless, it is not his turn to worry about the emotional affairs of the previous generation, and it can only depend on their respective creations.
