The Guandi Temple outside Nanjing is located in the middle of nowhere and has been abandoned for many years. The oil paint on the statue of the emperor has also become beautiful, and Zhou Cang's mud tire is holding the Qinglong Yanyue knife and standing quietly.

The existence of temples was already a kind of co-existence culture for the feudal dynasty. At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, Taoism was worshipped, and Taoist temples were all over the world. When Buddhism arose, temples were also built one by one.

The Southern Song Dynasty was peaceful, and because of political needs, began to sing the praises of the Shu and Han Kingdoms. So people began to build the Guandi Temple on a large scale.

But every time the times change, in the process, there are always countless temples and nunnery that are abandoned again.

This is understandable, without incense, monks can only think of another meal, right?

So inside and outside the city, the mountains and forests, leaving countless abandoned courtyards, said to be a temple, in fact, it is more appropriate to say that it is a hotel that does not need money.

Travelers rest here, and blood flows here.

"Don't kill my daughter, how much money do you want? I, I'll give it to you! I have money, as long as you release my daughter, I, I will definitely not sue the official!"

The corpses of three or five beggars were stacked in the corner, and the blood stains on the ground made the fast mouth fish cry hoarsely, and hurriedly took out a small cloth bag from his arms. When it was opened, there was a thick stack of silver bills. Because of this action, I was too panicked, and a few of the top ones fell down.

The fast mouth fish bent down to pick it up, but the tickets in his hand were scattered on the ground.

Ma Sanbao looked at the fast-mouthed fish squatting on the ground strangely, and then looked at Lan Chun who was standing behind him, a little puzzled: "This is this little girl's father?"

"Yes. Lan Chun's shoulders trembled slightly, his eyes were red, and he looked at Ma Sanbao deadly, suppressing the anger in his heart: "Let her go!"

"I will let it go, our family is a eunuch, and there is no shortage of silver, so it's useless to ask for her, right?" Ma Sanbao smiled, staggered, and revealed the unconscious little girl on the table behind him: "Don't worry, our family didn't hurt her." ”

Lan Chun asked coldly, "What do you want?"

"I said, help our family kill someone. ”

"Kill whom?"

"Kill... ”

Before Ma Sanbao's words were finished, the fastmouth fish on the ground seemed to suddenly wake up to something, jumped up high, and pointed at Ma Sanbao: "You, you said you are a eunuch?

"Old man, don't look for your own death. ”

"You, are you from the palace!" is a matter of his daughter's life, but the fast mouth fish completely ignored the cold murderous intention in Ma Sanbao's tone, and said busily: "I, I know Second Master Niu, I know your factory master in Dongchang, and I also have a relationship with the emperor, you, you can't hurt my daughter, otherwise I will ask them to cut off your head!"

Who Niu Er is Ma Sanbao doesn't care and doesn't care. But this man said that he knew Xu Ruyi and the emperor...

Ma Sanbao didn't realize that this middle-aged scholar could be a master with hands and eyes, and he was angry and funny, but he also had some doubts.

"It's kind of interesting. Ma Sanbao looked at the fastmouth fish strangely: "Who are you? What do you do for a living? Do you know what happens to deceiving our family?"

"I, I didn't lie to you! I'm a storyteller, I... Woo, you let go of me! You want to kill my family!"

Lan Chun reluctantly let go of his hand.

He knew that the other party was from Beiping, and he was the opponent of the imperial court, for fear that the fast mouth fish would say something about it, but Ma Sanbao pinched his hand on Chu Chu's neck.

"Why is Young Master Lan anxious, let him say, our family also wants to hear it. ”

"Father-in-law, father-in-law. The villain is a storyteller in a teahouse, the story is good, and the emperor often comes to the teahouse to cheer the villain. Villain, did not deceive the father-in-law. ”

"The emperor came to listen to your book?" Ma Sanbao thought for a while, and felt that this was incredible, but looking at the other party's expression, it didn't look like he was casually deceived, and asked again: "The emperor gave you a cheer?

"Well, not really. The fast-mouthed fish said, and then raised his head again: "He, he is really the emperor!"

"How?"

"He always had an entourage with him every time he came, sometimes one, sometimes two. The villain had heard the attendant call himself a slave!

The retinue often referred to themselves as "small" and "slaves", and only the maids used the title of "slaves". If there is any exception in this world, it must be the eunuchs in the palace. Only eunuchs, who are neither male nor female, would call themselves slaves.

Moreover, according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, only the emperor and the prince are qualified to serve with eunuchs, otherwise they will be punished for rebellion.

Hearing this, Ma Sanbao really believed it in his heart.

I had to ask again, but there were footsteps outside the temple gate: "What he said is true, that person is indeed the emperor." The two people who followed next to him were Xu Ruyi and Liu Xi. ”

Hua Pengfei's body was clean, but his hands were red, and I don't know whose blood was dried on it.

"You're back, why is it so slow?" Ma Sanbao frowned.

"Two tails, a wave of bastards in the city is okay, and a few are spies from the East Factory, so it's more troublesome. Hua Pengfei said as he walked past Lan Chun, glanced at it, and didn't say anything.

"Is the emperor very idle?"

Hua Pengfei shrugged: "I don't know about this." But at the beginning... Indeed, I often go to the teahouse to listen to him. ”

"It's the same now!" Hearing the implication, the fast-mouthed fish hurriedly continued: "Yesterday, yesterday the emperor came." Hurry up and let my daughter go, or I'll let the emperor cut off your heads!"

"Cut off our heads?" Ma Sanbao sneered: "Our family still wants his life." ”

"What, what?" the fish was stunned.

After all, the fast mouth fish is just a storyteller, and has not seen any strong winds and waves. The daughter was in the other party's hands, and when Fu Yi heard the identity of the other party's eunuch, he thought that there was some misunderstanding in it. But now his head is a little calmer, and from the other party's words and demeanor, he has a little reminiscence, is the other party a thief?

The one who asked for help looked back at Lan Chun, and Lan Chun also looked at him and sighed: "This matter has nothing to do with them. Whoever you want me to kill, say it. ”

"Originally, I wanted your Young Master Lan to help, but now it seems that I don't need it anymore. Ma Sanbao smiled slightly: "The two of you will rest here first, and let's talk again tomorrow, shall we?"

As soon as the words fell, Ma Sanbao had already arrived behind Lan Chun, and the two knives slashed at the back of Lan Chun and the fast mouth fish at the neck, and the two fell to the ground in response.

Zhuge Liang's tricks are just a story in the romance book after all, and they can't be true. No matter how superb the resourcefulness is, it is not easy to predict a general trend, how can it be able to resist a contingency?

"Alas, it's hard. Ma Sanbao shook his head and sighed: "Either you won't come, or you will come with all your brains." Our family is a contribution, and it is not a brain, what can we do. ”

"I have an idea. ”
