Chapter 68: Going out to welcome the four little ghosts
A private house with an ancient meaning, according to the mountain, occupies a whole hill.
The mountain is not big or very high, but it is located on the famous Yangming Mountain in Taipei, and when you look south, you can see the entire southern foot of Yangming Mountain. A long private driveway leads down to the ring road under the mountain, and up into the greenery.
Along the mountain road, a small canal paved with bluestone slabs winds down, and the clear water carries a murmuring sound.
The car was stopped in front of a stone-carved archway on the mid-mountain road, and Xie Cunguan got out of the car.
As soon as I looked up, I saw the four big characters carved out of the archway: Peng Wangwuyi. Obviously, the surname Peng Huan is from Wuyi, Fujian. At this time, I turned around and looked down the mountain, the blue sky and white clouds crossed the birds, and the eyes were full of greenery and stood in the fairyland, which was really a bit of a fairyland on earth.
Behind him, Liang Shan, the sheep baby, and the mule followed, walked to the side of the road together, and looked at the weather in front of them.
"Dog's day, one word: beauty!" the mule smiled innocently.
Behind them, Guo Tayu, Li Dao, Zhang Boran and Chen Wei also got out of the car, Chen Wei held a piece of paper in his hand and handed it to the man who stopped the car in the guard box next to the archway, which Xie Cunguan wrote on red paper last night.
The man took the prayer post in his hand and looked at it, then entered the sentry box, took the phone and contacted the inside.
After contacting, he politely said to Chen Wei to wait a while.
Xie Cunguan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, it seems that the Peng family, as a Jianghu person, still has a tradition to preserve. At the very least, this janitor knows about the post, and he can deal with it quite well.
In this way, the two sides will at least have something to talk about. It's not like encountering some "new second masters" who don't talk about the rules of the rivers and lakes, so they can only come up and do it first. Let's talk about it after I'm convinced. If one doesn't get it right, it will form a blood feud. There is no need to talk about it, don't die, and only then can you stop when one side is complete. Looking back, I found that there was a fight, inexplicable.
When I came today, I brought Liang Shan and Yangwa, these Jianghu men, and left the people of the sword mercenaries to continue to monitor the movements on the island. Because from the perspective of the monitor, the sword mercenaries must be more professional than the tricks of Liangshan and them. And the mercenaries have a strong military atmosphere. It is easy for Peng Huan, who was born in the rivers and lakes, to associate with the official background and generate unnecessary suspicions.
With a brutal roar, an off-road vehicle rushed down the mountain road, and near the torii, it almost brutally made a maneuver, and turned its head around with the screeching sound of brakes. Immediately, the smell of burnt paste caused by the friction of rubber and cement was heard in the air, and the car door opened, and the man guarding the door took the greeting note and handed it into the car. Then a young man with a slab leaned out and shouted to this side: "Who's coming to see the old lady, follow!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the car roared. Rush up the hill.
Xie Cunguan opened his mouth in surprise, closed it with a wry smile, and walked towards his car. Yangwa and Liang Shan glanced at each other. Scolded: "!" walked to the car in front of Xie Cunguan, behind them. The mule smiled innocently: "The melon baby here and there has no etiquette at all!"
Chen Yan, Li Dao, and Zhang Boran got into the third car. Guo Tayu got into Xie Cunguan's car.
These three cars were temporarily transferred by Xie Cunguan from Longhan, Taipei, and the drivers were all temporarily filled by people from the intelligence department. Ignoring the vanished guide car in front of them, the three cars slipped in a row and drove unhurriedly towards the mountain.
Although the people who welcome the guests of the Peng family are not very polite, the guests should also have the calmness of the guests.
A pair of huge bluestone lions with the mottled years, guarding the gate of the vermilion lacquer bread copper corner, the porch flies the peach corner, the green tiles are covered with green moss, an ancient tree is like a crown, a vacant lot is leveled under the tree, there are several cars parked, the outermost one, is the car that just went down the mountain, at this time the fire has been extinguished, the young man with the head of the board is leaning against the car door, puffing on a cigarette in his mouth, playing with a walkie-talkie in his hand, and squinting at the group of people who got off the car.
Xie Cunguan and the others got out of the car, and they didn't speak, just looked at the young man.
The young man didn't say much, he turned around and walked away with a "follow me", and when he turned around, he didn't know what to say to the walkie-talkie, just look at the side of the vermilion gate, a black lacquered corner door was pulled open from the inside, and four men in black walked out from the inside, with wide legs and big crotch on the lower body pants, and tied to the ankles, like two lanterns. The upper body is tight-fitting vest, revealing the muscles of the two arms, the head is inched, and the beard is tight, one by one, like the door god King Kong, standing in front of the door.
Xie Cunguan paused at his feet and looked at the young man.
The young man smiled coldly and said, "Although the Peng family is a small family, the pomp and circumstance of the four little ghosts to welcome guests can still afford it!"
Xie Cunguan sighed softly, it seems that this Peng Huan is a big man in the green forest.
In the past green forest, the king of the mountain who opened the mountain and established the village was actually a low-level green forest figure, these people occupied some traffic dangers, robbed passing merchants, and directly committed evil to the world, and were often the first object to be cleaned up by the government.
The higher-level characters are the so-called green forest tycoons, these people do not open mountains and set up cabinets, but they control all the mountain kings in a government, a state or a certain region, and they can be said to be the people who draw territory and establish rules for the mountain kings. They are in charge of the green forest, the diplomatic office, and often build a balanced bridge between black and white.
Above the green forest giants, there is the leader of the green forest alliance, which is often a loose organization formed by the green forest heroes of one province or even several provinces.
Generally, the leaders of the Green Forest Alliance are mostly born in troubled times, and their role is to achieve a dependence between the Green Forest and ordinary people. That is, it is necessary to restrain the characters of the green forest, not to kill innocents indiscriminately, and to fish with all their might, so that the people have no way to live. It is also necessary to lead the characters of the green forest in a planned and targeted manner, and loot some rich and noble places, so that the people in the green forest can live. Even at a certain time, they pulled the flag and rebelled, chasing the world.
And in times of peace, that's when the green forest tyrants are in charge.
The four little ghosts welcome guests is a kind of etiquette of the green forest heroes, which is generally a means for those lonely and nameless characters to visit, mainly to prevent those rivers and lakes from fighting in the autumn wind. Although the four little ghosts have the meaning of self-deprecation, it is just a literal politeness, in fact, these people's skills are generally quite outstanding.
You can't win against these warriors, and you are unknown in the rivers and lakes, how can these green forest giants be polite to you.
Of course, for famous people in the rivers and lakes, it is generally impossible to welcome guests with four little ghosts, which is an insult. In fact, even for the lonely and nameless people in the rivers and lakes, the four little ghosts welcome guests is also the lowest etiquette. Because above the four little ghosts, there are eight wils to welcome guests, and above the eight wilnesses, there are twelve King Kong to welcome guests.
The Peng family obviously didn't look down on Xie Cunguan's intentions.
Xie Cunguan had a smile on his face, but he was already a little angry in his heart, although he was not famous, but he also hugged nearly ten people, not to mention the side door, and also made a whole four little ghosts to welcome guests, his eyes swept the people on his side, and those who knew the root were Liang Shan and Guo Tayu.
Liang Shan is a guest, and he is old, so naturally he can't make a move at this time, so he can only be Guo Tayu.
He just glanced at Guo Tayu, and before he could speak, Liang Shan next to him stretched out his hand to block him, and only shouted: "Li Dao!" The young man who was stronger than Guo Tayu showed a smile on the half-silly doll, and his sturdy body moved two steps forward, and he hugged his fist at the four men on the steps and said, "Please advise the seniors!"
The four men in black glanced at each other, and a slightly thin but sleek man in the middle of the line stepped down the steps and walked to the middle of the field, looking at Li Dao who saluted him, and couldn't help but praise: "What a strong body!"
Li Dao smiled innocently, scratched his head with his hand and said, "My master said that I am so big that I hit the ground loudly, and I have no other skills......
In a word, everyone in the field laughed, and the man looked at Li Dao with a naïve face and smiled: "Don't worry, I don't have to hurt you!"
Li Dao bowed his hand again: "Thank you seniors for your mercy!"
The men on the other side laughed again, obviously Li Dao's honest face with a little baby fat made them feel harmless to humans and animals, so they didn't take this tall and strong body and immature face to heart.
"Senior, please!" Li Dao's fat face finally put away a grin, with a childish seriousness. (To be continued, please search, the novel is better and updated faster!)
