Chapter Twenty-Four: The Night Is Dark
The window was also closed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The moment the window closed, Ji Hualian finally had a chance to raise his head, it was a young girl, with a cloak and no powder, her expression looked cold in the moonlight, but maybe she was just expressionless. It is neither like a fairy out of the dust, nor does it mean to cut off the red dust.
When Ji Hualian and Sikong Gu started talking, Xiao Liu had already pushed open the window, and she didn't close the window until Sikong Gu completely left Xiao Liu's sight, as for whether Ji Hualian found her, it was not in her consideration at all.
Koyanagi just wanted to look at him more.
"Strange woman. ”
Ji Hualian had this idea in his heart for no reason, and he quickly threw it away.
When Sikong Gu returned to the guest room, Friday and the other three were already waiting for him in the room.
"Young master, that Ji Hualian ......" At this time on Friday, the human skin mask had been removed, and a melancholy expression on his beautiful face that could almost move a man was moved.
"He probably knows about your existence, and maybe he knows a little bit about Master. After expressing his judgment, Sikong Gu poured himself a glass of cold water. After drinking it all, he asked Jia San Guo Si, who was standing aside and already knew what Sikong Gu was about to ask, "What?"
"The Chu Zhongcheng of the Chu family seems to be fulfilling the contract, but today many of them are going in and out in disguise in batches, and as soon as they make trouble, they are like fish in the sea. ”
"The two young masters of the Situ family are nowhere to be found, if they are either grounded in the mansion, they will not return for a day. ”
"What about Ji Hualian and that Chunzhi's news?"
"Ji Hualian and Chun Zhi came to Jiangning, and they almost didn't alarm the Chu family and the Situ family. ”
Sikong Gu was not the slightest interested in Chunzhi, the first seat of the Dharma Hall, but said to himself: "Didn't you alarm? So the two of them really came to find me today? Except for the two of them, there really are no other Shaolin disciples and Kunlun disciples?"
After Jia San and Guo Si glanced at each other, Jia San replied: "There are no descendants, but today there is a figure in Situ Mansion. ”
"Who?"
"'God Capture' Shen Zhaoqian, he is a disciple of Shaolin layman, he worked as an errand in Kaifeng in the early years, and later entered the Shaolin Luohan Hall, but he returned to the vulgar in three years, and then went to Jiangnan to resume his old business. ”
"That's him, although there is no situation on the Chu family's side, but their former head of the family is now the chief disciple of Kunlun, and it is probably not difficult to know the attitude of the master. ”
"Young master, are we too careful this time? If we don't buy an informant again, with my three brothers, even if they break their legs, it is impossible to be as detailed as Yangzhou. Although Jia San was very respectful on his face, the dissatisfaction in his words was obvious.
Intelligence work has always been arranged by Jia San, and only after Jia San established the intelligence network can Guo Si actually implement Sikong Gu's actions. Although the large army entered the city yesterday, Sikong Gu and Jia Sanguo Si entered Jiangning in advance four days ago, and they could not enter the city together on Friday because they wanted to pretend to be Sikong Gu. But in the past three days, because of the major Qinglou gambling houses in Jiangning City, and even the major taverns and inns, there are more or less the forces of the Chu family and the Situ family.
Although the reputation of the people in the rivers and lakes is damaged by the operation of such places as the Qinglou gambling house, as long as they invest in shares and dividends, not many people will be harsh, after all, which one does not need to make a living? After careful study, Kunlun runs half of the blacksmith shops in Bashu, and there are about 1,000 tilts of fertile land in Shaolin's name, one is an ironsmith and the other is a farmer, and no one says that they are not decent, and what is more, how many people in the rivers and lakes do not know about the Cao Gang smuggling? However, as long as they do not alarm the government, do not harass the good people, and often give porridge and relief, they can basically be regarded as a white road. Otherwise, with a character like Yang Shuo who is enlightened, but still can't tolerate sand in his eyes, how can he do his best for the Cao Gang?
In these years, isn't it good for the people who don't do evil?
Of course, the reason why Sikong Gu did not establish an intelligence network was not because the Chu family and the Situ family already had power in the major news centers.
"The establishment of an intelligence network will touch things that cannot be touched, and now that our foundation in Jiangning is unstable, it is not good for us to expose our strength too early. ”
"We are poor and white, what can still be exposed?" If it weren't for Sikong Gu's identity, Jia San would almost have sneered with his nose.
"You guys. Sikong Gu's gaze swept over the faces of the three of them, and his voice was very calm: "Although you are willing to be nameless, I don't want you to be so silent. ”
When Jia San heard this, he could barely control his expression, he never thought that Sikong Gu would think like this.
"Young master, we people can't see the light. ”
Friday interjected at this time, his mood was much more complicated than Jia Sanguo Si, after all, Director Friday is words, unlike Jia Sanguo Si who is proficient in assassination methods, Director Friday must show his face to show, although for so many years, Friday has long been accustomed to performing under all kinds of human skin masks, but being able to show his true face has always been Friday's heart's wish.
After all, it takes a lot of effort to make expressions while wearing a human skin mask.
"If you can't see the light, you have to see it, I don't know how much Ji Hualian has found, if he knows the identity of the old man, then you can't hide it. ”
"Young master, it's not time for the revival of the hidden door. ”
Guo Si also persuaded that after all, in Mr. Wu's planning, it would take a long time to announce his true identity to create momentum for Sikong Gu.
"If we don't take the initiative to expose it earlier, sooner or later it will become a weapon in the hands of people with intentions, I think, Ji Hualian just now definitely didn't just think that Friday was just a cronie of mine. ”
"......"
"I am free to arrange, don't worry, Master's plan is not just your life. ”
Sikong Gu's appearance at this time, even he didn't know, how much was a play, and how much was real, he only knew that the three of them were silent on Friday after he said this. After a long time, Jia San asked, "So, what about the plan?"
At the end of the banquet, the guests did not disperse, most of these Jianghu people who thought they had voted for the right master were drunk in the lobby, and those experienced in the rivers and lakes of the Cao Gang returned to the room early, Dongfang Ling sat on the chair drunk, and a pair of eyes stared at the big iron box under the candlelight.
"Meng Yuan doesn't ...... either Optimistic about it......"
Although he had ordered a few gangs to look at the box, Dongfang Ling was still a little dissatisfied with Sikong Gu's idea of not taking so much gold to heart, but after all, he was only a guest, and he had just persuaded a few words at the wine table, and it seemed that Sikong Gu had not taken it to heart.
"How could it be...... So sleepy...... Even if you are happy...... Nor will it be ...... They're all drunk on the wine table, aren't they?"
Drunken eyes, Dongfang Ling's last bit of consciousness was the appearance of the big man at the table, his whole head immersed in the dishes.
Next, it seems that the lights go out, and it seems that the eyelids are closed, in short, nothing can be seen.
