Chapter 18 Minshan Affair Enters Los Angeles
Zhang Fanfang heard the footsteps coming, so he hurriedly looked up, originally thought that the person who came was Chunhua, but who knew that it was a bull demon. Zhang Fan's face was slightly shocked, and then asked: "Bull Demon, what's wrong, so anxious?" Bull Demon's black face turned red, as if he was extremely anxious, only to hear him open his mouth and say loudly: "Sect Master, we have made a big discovery, when the leader of Chunhua led everyone to search the courtyard, he found a piece of gold leaf in a study, and the matter was important, and he sent his subordinates to report to the sect leader urgently." ”
Seeing that he showed his true feelings, Zhang Fan didn't delay any longer, and immediately said to Mingyue: "Let's go and see what strange things they found." Then the three of them hurried out of the house.
After a while, Zhang Fan and the three of them came to an antique study, and when they saw Chunhua and others ushering in, they waved slightly and motioned for her to lead the way. Originally, Zhang Fan thought that the gold leaf was in the study, but who knew that Chunhua had opened a tunnel, and he knew that he had taken it for granted. When everyone entered the secret room, Zhang Fan walked all the way, but he didn't encounter the mechanism. Although the chamber was well-built, it was a bit old, and the cobwebs and rotten wood around it were covered in dust. This chamber has apparently been untouched for a long time.
It wasn't until he passed through three large iron gates covered with black rust and unevenness that he finally came to a tight small room with a round face, and saw the broken wood and iron crossbows all around, and knew that the mechanism here had long been completely destroyed due to disrepair.
At this time, Chunhua said loudly: "Sect Master, Miss, the slave maid found this thing, just thought it was a great treasure, but after taking it out, I saw that the handwriting on the treasure was too small, I don't know what to do, so I asked the master and Miss to decide." Zhang Fan took a closer look and found that a dark iron inlaid jade box was as thin as Zen wings gold leaf, and the yellow light was slightly exposed, and when he looked at it again, he saw that the almost transparent gold leaf was engraved with small characters of flies, which was difficult to distinguish. Seeing this, Zhang Fan thought slightly. Then he ordered: "Take a basin of water, this sect leader has his own way to understand the seal on the gold leaf." When a maidservant heard this, she left. After a while, a basin of water was fetched. Zhang Fan took out the gold leaf and placed it in a basin. By the light of the fire, I saw that the handwriting on the gold leaf had grown in size, and a mystical mantra was suddenly revealed in front of everyone's eyes.
Seeing this, Mingyue's face turned slightly red, and she exclaimed: "The sect leader is really a god and a man, and he can have this stunt." Zhang Fan smiled silently, he understood his own ability, and the subplot was just a small skill.
Everyone was slightly disappointed when they saw the engraving technique on the gold leaf, but Zhang Fan didn't think so. It turned out that the gold leaf engraved on it was not a method of cultivation. It's not a profound martial art, but it's a magical method for domesticating and controlling brute beasts, called the trick of beasts. It was useless to everyone present. Because they each have horses, and they are unusually docile, it is useless to ask for them, but Zhang Fan knows that there are many high-level brute beasts in the barren mountains and wilderness, and this beast control technique has added a new force to his future hegemony that no one is aware of, and he is very happy.
Zhang Fan put away the gold leaf and looked at the broken things on the ground. He sighed slightly. When Chunhua heard this, she also said: "That caravan is really in the blessing and does not know the blessing, in vain let countless treasures turn into dust, and destroy the heavens, and it is really retribution to suffer this catastrophe today." Although everyone was slightly disappointed that they could not use the strange treasure. But they were still excited, and they had everything to gain tonight.
Zhang Fan saw that there were nothing strange here, so he led everyone out of the secret room.
A moment later. Everyone returned to the hall, and Zhang Fan was still sitting in the hall. Spring flowers stand in the hall and seem to hesitate. Seeing this, Zhang Fan smiled and said, "Chunhua wants to tell me about the gold and silver?" Chunhua replied when she heard this: "What the sect leader said is good. Today, the subordinates searched the whole village and got tens of millions of taels of gold and silver, and countless treasures and jades. Its wealth is comparable to that of a royal family and a large family, and even the lord of the city has never possessed such wealth. The slave maid used to be the maid of the city lord, and she was also the maid of the young lady, and now I see that the master and the young lady seem to be a good couple, and they have long been connected by heart. However, the maid only dared to conjecture, did not dare to assert, and asked the master to show it. ”
Zhang Fan's heart moved when he heard this, and he was slightly happy, this matter was not unexpected by him, but when he heard this, his calm and waveless heart also had a trace of waves. He smiled and said, "You don't have to think much about the matter between me and Mingyue. Since silver and gold are for all, let them be rewarded. As for what to do with this wealth, although I have some thoughts in my heart, I still let Miss Mingyue talk about it. Mingyue was already like a peach blossom at this time, and said angrily: "Sect Master, the slave family is already your person, don't you understand it yet?"
Zhang Fan was shocked when he heard this, and then thought about it and felt that he was careless and reckless before, and then apologized to Mingyue: "Mingyue, I was reckless." Mingyue was even more ashamed when she heard this, and said in a coquettish voice: "As long as the husband treats the concubine well, why does the concubine need the husband to keep his promise?" Zhang Fan was stunned when he heard this.
Everyone in the hall was pleasantly surprised when they heard this, and they knew what to do. Chunhua saw that the sect leader and the young lady had made a private agreement for life, and knew that their cultivation was profound, and no one could stop them, and she and others had to rely on in the future, and she was happy in her heart, and she didn't want to spoil the atmosphere at this time, but when she saw that the sky was clear, she had to speak: "Master, madam, although the treasure gold and silver of the horse gang belong to my True Dragon Sect, there are still thousands of horse gang remnants who have returned to my sect. The subordinates did not dare to arbitrarily judge, and asked the master to show it. Zhang Fan said with a smile: "My true dragon sect is newly established, it is the time to employ people, those who really have a heart of repentance, abandon the dark and turn to the light, we must treat them well." However, the people's hearts are unpredictable, and you still have to publicize my true dragon divine power more to deter those who are petty and filthy. Chunhua was overjoyed when she heard this: "Thank you sect leader, my subordinates know." Zhang Fan smiled: "Okay, you guys go down." When the matter was settled, we immediately set off for the capital. Everyone returned, and then they went away.
The morning sun is rising, Minshan is floating, the clouds and fog are dispersed, and a piece of green mountains and green water reappears in the world. Zhang Fan and Mingyue warmed themselves up after everyone retreated, then ate breakfast and prepared to pack, but now they see that the time is not early, and they want to leave.
On the side road of the water village, everyone gathered, and Zhang Fan and Mingyue were already sitting on Hei Feng. Seeing everyone gathered, Zhang Fan asked, "Chunhua, can you arrange the affairs here?" Chunhua heard the words and said: "Don't worry, my subordinates have ordered several sisters with advanced cultivation and the Niuwang brothers to guard this village, and when we leave, they will go to contact the people in the sect and take care of the affairs of the water village together." Zhang Fan said with a smile: "Very good! This Minshan Boundary, the location is no less important than that of Zhenlong Mountain, and it will also become an important hall in my sect in the future." Let's name it Minshan Hall. I am waiting to go to the capital not only to strengthen the sect, but also to make my sect famous all over the world. But there are very few innate masters in the sect, and we have a long way to go. Everyone said in unison: "We were originally the sect leader to create the true dragon together. Yang Wei world. Zhang Fan laughed and said, "Okay, let's go!" Then Zhang Fan rode the black wind and galloped in the river valley ahead, and everyone followed, and for a while, the whole silent Minshan Mountain sounded a cheerful sound of horses' hooves.
Time is like water, let it flow westward. Zhang Fan and his entourage of 12 people rode along the river avenue all the way, and by the afternoon, they had arrived at Luojing, the capital of Qi State.
Luojing is one of the Tiannan Shenzhou, and it is named because the Luoshui flows through this place. Luojing City is the heart of Luozhou among the five states in Tiannan. There are many families, prosperous commerce, it is a prosperous place of smoke and willows, and a gentle and wealthy hometown.
At this time, Zhang Fan and his entourage marched along the avenue by the Luoshui River, only to see the green willows dancing lightly in the wind, merchants and pedestrians coming and going, the flower boats and boats in the river lingering, and the warblers singing and swallowing bursts. The smell of fat and wine is mixed, and the drunken singers are greedy for joy, it is really a fairyland on earth, and Loulan is in a dream.
Occasionally, there are poems written by sausters. Long chanting and short sighs, three breaks in one word, and there are warriors talking loudly and comforting their pride. There are loud shouts, there are singers whose voices are eroding the bones, and there are children who are shouting and laughing. Promote wealth;
After a while, Zhang Fan came to a restaurant. Seeing dozens of pretty women in flower skirts laughing at the door, the servants in green shirts shouting and drinking, all kinds of guests, coming and going, I want to come to this is a wonderful wonderland. He raised his eyes and saw that the black gold silk nanmu plaque under the big red silk cloth was embossed with the four elegant cursive characters of "Heaven and Earth", and he was happy in his heart, so he smiled at everyone: "This heaven and earth should be a good place to eat and drink, let's get off the horse and go in for some dinner." When they heard this, they dismounted, and came to the door. When a servant saw someone coming, he came to help with the horses.
When a dozen beautiful women saw a pair of young men and women coming with ten maids and servants, they knew that they were from a rich and noble family, so they hurriedly welcomed Miss Gongzi to heaven and earth. As he spoke, he also threw flattering eyes from time to time, looking at the masculine and handsome young man in front of him who was wearing a white brocade robe but carrying a clumsy black sword, and he didn't know how much tenderness flowed in his heart.
Zhang Fan smiled at everyone, and took Mingyue and everyone into the heavens and earth, regardless of the guests around him who sighed and looked at them with amazement, he went directly to the third floor, saw the two beautiful maids ushering, and then nodded to them, and then came to an elegant window pavilion to sit down.
Mingyue seemed to be accustomed to this kind of banquet, and nodded slightly at the spring flowers looking at her. Immediately, Chunhua and the maid gave instructions, and after a while, several tables of wine and food came up.
Zhang Fan looked at the delicacies of the mountains and seas on the table, the inexplicable dishes, smelled the fragrant and mellow wine, and sighed inexplicably. Mingyue beside her saw that her husband was strange, although she didn't know why he had little knowledge even though he was the sect leader, but she also understood his feelings in her heart, so she smiled and said: "Husband, you may often live in the mountains, live a wild life, and rarely enter this rich place, and have a leisure." It's like a rich family doesn't know what rice is, but everyone lives differently. In the future, you will come into contact with this kind of rich and noble things more often, and you will gradually become accustomed to it, and there is no need to be surprised. Zhang Fan smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm not saying that there are any tricks in eating, it's just that I am walking fast today and I am slightly ill." Although Mingyue knew that her husband wanted to save face, she didn't laugh at him, but said, "Let's eat quickly." It's not too good, but it's barely ingestible. And as he spoke, the two of them began to eat and drink.
This heaven and earth is indeed worthy of the name, Zhang Fan is short-sighted, seeing the wine and food, he feels very hungry, and when he hears Mingyue speak, he buries his head in eating. Seeing this, Mingyue chuckled and ate the vegetables silently. For a while, the small pavilion was so quiet that only Zhang Fan's somewhat rude sound of eating could be heard. This appearance was seen by the restaurant maid who was waiting next to her, and she felt that this boy was a little funny, and she felt that he was very cute, and at the same time there was a faint sadness in her heart. Although they see the guests eating and drinking every day, and they can eat some exquisite meals every day, they are the remnants of nobles, and they have never been happy in their hearts. When I saw this strange boy today, I felt mixed in my heart, and I wanted to laugh and be ashamed.
Not to mention Zhang Fan's strange appearance of eating, just that everyone finished eating and was about to drink tea, when they suddenly heard a domineering roar coming from downstairs, and then a loud footsteps approached quickly, as if they were coming towards themselves. Everyone looked at Zhang Fan, and when he made a decision, they saw that Zhang Fan seemed to be worry-free, sitting idly drinking tea, and everyone was at ease, and then waited silently. (To be continued......)
