Chapter 179: Wizard of the World
Xiong Yaohua sent Lin and Fang out of the house, closed the door, and the windows on both sides were opened, but it was still hot in the house. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
He returned to the table, poured two teas, and personally served one to Xiong Dajing.
The old man coughed violently a few times, and his face turned sickly.
He fumbled and took two sips of tea and asked, "Are the two of them both members of the imperial court?"
"Not really. Xiong Yaohua sat on a chair and replied while drinking tea, "One is Lin Fanghe of the Criminal Department, and the other is Qin Yu of the Ministry of Officials. I heard that you are not feeling well, so I came to take a look......"
Xiong Dajing pursed his lips and put down the teacup: "I see that the thoughts of the two of them are clearly on top of that eye-catching treasure, where can they afford to look down on me, a poor and stubborn lonely old man." β
"Uncle, don't say it so ugly. The two adults came to visit, and they were completely kind, and you can't give people a sense of it. Xiong Yaohua was patient and enlightened.
Xiong Dajing leaned on the head of the bed, looking his nephew up and down with a pair of bloodshot eyes, obviously not buying it: "Hmph, I don't believe it." β
He also said: "It is not for that matter, how can two dignified fourth-grade members be willing to condescend to such a desolate place? β
"Didn't I tell you earlier, the imperial court has ordered that this matter will not be investigated. Xiong Yaohua understood his uncle's intentions and persuaded him, "Half of the two adults came to Taihu Lake to protect your safety. You must know now that there are several forces in the rivers and lakes in the dark, and they will do everything possible to obtain that batch of treasures!"
"Whoever it is, I'm not going to give it to him. Especially not to the descendants of Zhu Yuanzhang who killed the ancestor Heavenly King Miao Daheng......" Xiong Dajing only said a few words, then he felt panting, and grabbed his chest tightly with his hand.
Xiong Yaohua snorted and said, "I know, you've said this many times. β
Xiong Dajing stared at his nephew and said, "You also think I'm nagging, don't you think I'm annoying?"
"Nothing. As long as you are healthy and free of illness and disaster, I won't ask anything......" Xiong Yaohua said sincerely.
"What are you going to do with me next?"
"Send you to another safe place, and the Jinyi Guard and the government will come forward to protect you with all your might. β
"What if I don't tell that secret for the rest of my life and take it to the coffin?"
"The right to say it or not is yours. Xiong Yaohua put down the teacup in his hand and said, "As long as I am there for a day, even if you never say it, no one dares to ask." I hold the edict of the first emperor in my hand......"
"Good boy, after four or five years by my side, didn't you see that you were the brocade guard of the imperial court?" Xiong Dajing sighed angrily, and his face was gloomy.
Xiong Yaohua apologized: "Think about it, if I don't have this special identity, how can I protect you properly and safely?"
Xiong Dajing nodded slightly, and a strange brilliance flashed in his eyes: "Just now you said that there are several groups of people and horses who are secretly coveting and want to get the treasure, who are they?"
"The left is nothing more than a gang force on the rivers and lakes. For example, 'red sleeves add incense', such as the remnants of the Mongols. But these are glimmers of fire, and they are not terrible. The most frightening thing is ......"
When Xiong Yaohua said this, his color changed greatly, and he suddenly stopped talking.
Xiong Dajing was puzzled, and opened his mouth full of doubts: "I don't understand this, what other gang forces can be greater than the official family? In those days, Chen Youliang, Zhang Shicheng, and Fang Guozhen were all heroes who were rampant, especially the King of Han, who had 600,000 troops and hundreds of warships.
"This secretly active organization is probably more terrifying than any military force we have seen. Xiong Yaohua was worried.
Xiong Dajing didn't believe it, and said angrily: "Hugh is talking nonsense! What the hell is going on, can you tell me about it?"
Xiong Yaohua refilled the teapot with water, poured a cup with his uncle in the past, sat back at the table, poured it himself, and sipped slowly.
Although Xiong Dajing is old, his temperament is still impatient. After waiting for a while, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and said, "If you don't say it, you're about to die!"
"This organization not only has gathered many first-class masters in the rivers and lakes, Shuanglong outside the Saiwai, Luo Bufan, Liu Fanhua of the 'Ten Mile Frost Heaven' Great Array of the Demon Sect's 'Heavenly Illusion Sun', but also a group of Dongying ninjas who have come and gone without a trace to help fight...... Xiong Yaohua's face was grim.
"Who are you listening to?" Xiong Dajing got up and sat on the bed.
"Lin Fanghe, the left attendant of the Criminal Department, is also a first-class master from the Diancang Sect, and he has personally fought with these people many times. β
"How can a gang in the rivers and lakes have such abundant funds to support it? Moreover, well-trained and brave officers and soldiers will not easily let them go...... "General Xiong Dajing was skeptical.
Xiong Yaohua put down the teacup, shook his head slowly, and sighed: "The most suspicious thing is precisely this, although this organization is mixed in the three sects and nine streams, it is strictly disciplined and has many ears and eyes. He is well aware of the situation in the government, the military camp, the imperial court, and even the palace, and responds in advance. So so far, I haven't been able to fully understand the ins and outs of itβ"
"Interesting, interesting. Xiong Dajing had a strange smile on his face, "It's not until now, you Lin Lord can't even find out who their leader is, right?"
Xiong Yaohua smiled bitterly: "I heard that it is a monk......
"Monk?" Xiong Dajing was stunned.
"Have you heard of Dao Yan?"
"How can I not know Daoyan. He had triangular eyes, hawkbeak eyes, a wolf's back, and a slow walk like a sick tiger. He has a natural penchant for killing, and he is talented in the world. If such a person cannot be a minister of the world, he will be a traitor in troubled times!"
"Looks like you're really talking. Xiong Yaohua shrugged.
Xiong Dajing closed his eyes and was silent. After a long time, his voice was low, and he said: "No, this Daoyan, when he was not a monk, his common name was Yao Guangxiao, didn't he follow the fourth prince Yanwang Zhu Di to Youzhou in the eighteenth year of Hongwu?"
This time it was Xiong Yaohua's turn to keep silent.
Xiong Dajing thought to himself secretly for a while, laughed, and looked weird: "Understood, understood." The dove occupies the magpie's nest, and the battle for the throne is just that. β
Xiong Yaohua asked, "Why are you asking about this?"
Xiong Dajing smacked his lips and said calmly: "Just ask, don't why." Good nephew, go get some wine, I'm in a good mood tonight, and I want to have a drink......"
"Drinking?" Xiong Yaohua was taken aback, "Uncle, haven't you been drinking for many years?" )
