Chapter one hundred and eighteen things exposed

The handyman area, which is located in an open space, actually occupies a small area. There are usually three or four people living in each room.

Xu Changsheng walked around for a long time, and finally found a small house where only two servant disciples lived, with the words "Bingjia Seventy-nine" written on it.

After some tidying up, I quietly stepped in.

"Who are you?"

The two handyman disciples who were trying to breathe with their eyes closed opened their eyes and looked at the young man wearing standard clothes with a shy smile with wary expressions.

Xu Changsheng smiled awkwardly and scratched his head.

The thin young man on the left asked: "New here?"

Xu Changsheng nodded.

"Why are you here alone? Where is the steward who brought you here?" The shorter handyman disciple on the right had already stood up and asked.

"Steward? He was called away by other stewards on the way. He said something important happened and seemed to be related to some villagers. So he told me where he lived and asked me to come by myself. It took me a long time to find this place.

Yes, the land is really too big." Xu Changsheng said and scratched his head again.

He seemed extremely shy.

Another thin man also stood up and moved out of the way. He went to the back and poured a bowl of boiled water. He handed it to Xu Changsheng and whispered: "The little brother must not have gone to get some daily necessities yet. It's too late now. He is probably at work."

The manager has also left. I can only make do with it for one night and go back tomorrow morning."

Xu Changsheng was slightly panicked, he actually wanted to receive something, but he thought about it, otherwise how would the people who just came in bring nothing?

Fortunately, through their recent contact, the two of them believed Xu Changsheng's new identity and did not ask any more questions. After all, sneaking into Tianwu Palace was far beyond what mere mortals like them could imagine.

So the two of them sat on the edge of the big bed that occupied less than half of the room, leaving the only chair available to Xu Changsheng.

After he sat down, the two of them put their hands on his thighs and looked at Xu Changsheng. One of them asked: "Did the little brother come in through the 'front yard' or the 'back hall'?"

"Huh? What is the front yard? What is the back hall?" Xu Changsheng asked doubtfully.

Why don't you just join Tianwu Palace and create a front yard and a back hall? Besides, I am not really from Tianwu Palace.

The two servants looked at each other and had a general idea in their minds. The thin man on the left explained: "This 'front yard' means that you were collected from various villages and towns by the stewards in red, and you walked through the open and honest front door;

'Back Hall' refers to brothers who come in through various channels and compete for this immortal fate not because of their talent for cultivation."

Xu Changsheng understood in his heart and said with a smile: "I just come from a remote village. I can't find any backroom. Naturally, I was spotted by the steward and taken in."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and then accepted Xu Changsheng, "That's good, we are all from the front yard. Next time I have a chance, I will take you to the party in our front yard. I am not talented, but I am also there.

With such an official position, it’s no problem to take you in to expand your knowledge. By the way, my name is Wei Huo, from Dayao Village, and this person next to me is Song Zhu, from Xiuping Village.”

Xu Changsheng hurriedly said hello to them, and then introduced: "My name is He Changsheng. I am from Yuanshan Village. It is a very remote village. The two eldest brothers must have never heard of me."

Naturally, when acting, you have to do a complete set. Even if it doesn't work, at least it has to be in line with the circumstances.

The two of them have never heard of it, but it is normal. Dongwu County is so big, and both of them are just mortals. How could they both

Heard it.

In this way, the three of them were officially acquainted. They were all men, and they were accepted quickly. After a few words, Xu Changsheng lay on the empty bed above the big bed, but they both still had bedding.

, and he only had a piece of wood.

Xu Changsheng was also used to it. When walking in the mountains and sleeping in the wilderness, he could only use the sky as a quilt and borrow the ground as a bed. Now it was considered good. At least he still had a sheltered house.

Through the conversation, Xu Changsheng also learned that they were all from the water house, and were responsible for carrying water to the handyman area. The work was not heavy, and it could be done quickly if there were more people. The two of them also agreed to help Xu Changsheng work for another day tomorrow.

Let him have time to prepare.

The day after tomorrow, he would have to go fetch water with them.

Maybe they were too tired from carrying water during the day, so they fell asleep after not chatting for long.

Xu Changsheng was a little anxious. Although they talked so much, he didn't find out any useful information.

After thinking about it, this is the only way.

So he quietly got up, went to the table where he kept his bundle, and pretended to take out three palm-sized bottles of wine.

In fact, it is still taken from mustard seeds.

Returning to the bedside, he shook the two people who were gradually falling asleep.

Wei Huo, who had a slightly hot temper, wanted to get angry as soon as he woke up, but Xu Changsheng handed the wine to him at the right time and opened it for him. He said with a charming smile: "Brother, try it, this is my home-brewed Zhuyeqing, let's see how it tastes.

"

After saying that, he handed the other bottle to the confused Song Zhu.

Sure enough, Wei Huo, who was confused and wanted to get angry, immediately woke up when he smelled the aroma of the wine. He took a small sip and let out a long moan, as if a long drought was followed by sweet rain.

It wasn't until he couldn't taste the wine anymore that Wei Huo came back to his senses, laughed loudly at Xu Changsheng, patted his shoulder hard and said: "I have such a good thing, I don't know if I could have taken it out earlier.

Brothers, please wait."

Song Zhu on the side drank half the bottle in one gulp, "It's just such a good treasure. As long as our three brothers know about it, Chang Sheng, don't let outsiders know about it."

"Aren't you afraid that the two eldest brothers won't like this? I just heard Brother Song talking about good wine in a daze, so I dared to take it out." Xu Changsheng also took a sip.

When Song Zhu heard this, he smiled sheepishly.

As for whether I said it or not? Maybe I did.

Who cares, who remembers clearly, as long as he has a drink.

"Haha, no way, how many people can refuse such a delicious wine." Wei Huo laughed loudly.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Xu Changsheng asked casually: "Do the two eldest brothers know about the recent disappearance of this villager?"

"What?" Wei Huo jumped over and immediately covered Xu Changsheng's mouth.

Xu Changsheng could have escaped originally, but seeing that his reaction was so violent, Xu Changsheng thought it would be better to cooperate.

Then Wei Huo carefully looked around, and after finding no other abnormalities, he released Xu Changsheng and solemnly said: "Changsheng, be careful what you say, be careful what you say, this matter is a taboo in our Tianwu Palace."

"Huh?" Xu Changsheng's heart moved.

He hurriedly asked in a low voice: "Why is this? I hope the two eldest brothers can explain it. I don't want to break a taboo as soon as I come here. If I am kicked out, I will be fine. I am just a father who makes a living by brewing wine at home."

I'm afraid my mother will have a hard time."

After saying that, he took a sip of Bamboo Leaf Green,

He held the wine bottle and shook it between the two of them.

Looking at the wine in his hand, Wei Huo swallowed his saliva, turned around and said, "Zhuzi, you go outside to watch the wind, and I'll talk to Changsheng."

Song Zhu also knew the seriousness of the matter. He corked the wine bottle and carefully placed it next to the pillow before going out. He just closed the door but opened it again. He poked his head back and said to Wei Huo: "Old Huo, you can't steal."

Drink my wine, or I won’t be done with you!”

Wei Huo waved his hand impatiently, "Who drank your wine? Go quickly, don't delay, I have to go to bed early."

After he closed the door again, Wei Huo approached Xu Changsheng and whispered: "You can't discuss the disappearance of the villagers in Tianwu Palace. Don't do it."

"Why is this?" Xu Changsheng asked.

Wei Huo shook his head, "We don't know either. In short, those who were discussing in this public place were arrested by the stewards. After they were brought back, they were deformed and could no longer speak. Some even

Never came back."

Xu Changsheng was shocked. It seemed that there was indeed something secret in Tianwu Palace.

Then he continued to ask: "Is it really a wild beast coming down the mountain?"

Wei Huo took a sip of wine and regained his courage before continuing: "How is it possible? Let me tell you, when I went home not long ago, I heard my mother say that the old man Feng in our village was lame.

, let alone going into the mountains, I could only stay at home every day, but I still disappeared. I still stayed at home and disappeared out of thin air. If it is a wild beast, where can such a wild beast come from? It is not an exaggeration to think that it is a monster."

Xu Changsheng took a sip of his wine and said, "Not far from our village, there is Shang'ao Village. The entire village has disappeared."

Wei Huo suddenly seemed to think of something and shouted towards the door: "Pillar, pillar."

After a while, Song Zhu closed the door, walked in, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? What did you ask me to do?"

"I remember you told me that you have some kind of relative in Shang'ao Village, right?" Wei Huo asked, sitting cross-legged.

"Yes, that's where my eldest aunt married. I lived there for a while when I was a child, and after knowing that I was favored by Tianwu Palace, my eldest aunt went to my house and hid herself for a long time.

He gave me an old ginseng plant, which was very good to me." When he talked about his eldest aunt, Song Zhu couldn't stop smiling on his face.

Xu Changsheng and the two looked at each other.

Song Zhu also noticed something was wrong and hurriedly asked: "You ask me what I am doing, and whether something happened to Shangao Village? You can tell me."

Xu Changsheng forced a laugh, "It's okay, okay, I just told Brother Wei Huo that my home is not far from Shang'ao Village, and then he remembered about you, so he asked you to come back and ask."

Song Zhu breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay." Then he imitated the Buddhist monk's style, clasped his hands together, and kept praying.

After asking these questions, they both didn't know anything anymore.

So Xu Changsheng had no choice but to lie on the wooden board with his clothes on.

Feeling Song Zhu's heavy breathing.

Xu Changsheng never thought that one day he would be able to redress the grievances of others, just like what Mr. Shu said back then.

There are always some people in the world who draw their swords to help when the road is rough.

So Jianghu is passed down from generation to generation.

Never grow old.
