Chapter four hundred and eighty seventh lotus gang split the rudder
The robber who was in the upper realm of the Four Meridians became less and less confident the more he fought. Although everything was stable now, the guy opposite seemed to have endless strength. Is this ability really just for a member of a hundred households?
"Let's go!" After another forty or fifty moves, the more skilled robber suddenly used the spirit snake to spit out the message, trying to force He Qizhou back and escape, but there was no chance.
"I've seen enough, I'm going to die!" He Qizhou was fully activated in an instant, and after slashing away the opponent's sword with one strike, he cut off half of the other person's head without stopping!
"I am Lian Wen from Mutang, please spare my life!" Lian Wen let go of his sword. When he saw his brother being killed, his liver and gallbladder were split apart, and he shouted while running.
"I knew it earlier!" He Qizhou cut his sword before slashing Lian Wen to death. He turned around and said to Xu Mu, "I was still thinking about silence last night, so don't blame me for being rude if you bring it to your door yourself." After that, he said.
After going through their belongings, they found out their household certificates and Mutang's letter charms and put them into their arms.
"Have you read everything?" Xu Mu stepped forward and asked.
"There is no problem with the boxing skills. I have read the sword manual before and have almost forgotten the sword skills. It is a little different. It should be fine now." He Qizhou said.
"I'm probably not familiar with you yet. I just watched it twice. If I practice it a few more times, I should be able to become inseparable. It would be nice to have another identity." Of course Xu Mu understood what He Qizhou meant.
He Qizhou threw the two corpses into the dry river on the right side of the mountain stream, and then ordered Helian Changji and Cao Yun to help cover the corpses with pebbles that could be found everywhere. If a flood didn't wash away the pebbles, they would probably not be easily discovered in a short time.
, and then got back on the road.
Half a day later, four people and six riders entered the territory of the capital, and inspections at each checkpoint became increasingly stringent. Zhongjing Qingcheng occupies an extremely large area, covering an area of fifty miles square. Kuocheng has no walls, and towering poplars are planted all along the city, from the edge of Kuocheng to
After walking almost twenty miles from the outer city wall, he vaguely noticed that there was a city wall blocking the way ahead. He Qizhou knew that he was about to arrive at the outer city. Although it was still early, he did not dare to be careless and found an inn near the outer city to stay.
I decided to explore the outer city by myself first and then make a decision.
Helian Changji said that he could find a suitable place to stay in the city, but He Qizhou could not believe it. He threatened and lured him along the way, but Helian Changji was very tight-lipped and refused to tell where He Qingshankong was hiding.
.At the foot of the capital, Helian Changji was only willing to help the two assassinate the prince. As for He Qingshan's residence, he said that he had to find a way to trust each other and ensure safety before he could reveal everything.
He Qizhou didn't want to act too hastily, so he decided to first find the Lotus Gang's branch in the capital, inquire about the branch leader, and ask for a place to stay in the city. Guo Wen had said that the leader of the capital branch was his friend for many years.
Friends are absolutely trustworthy. With Guo Wen's guarantee, He Qizhou was of course willing to believe Guo Wen. Since leaving the Altai Mountains, he had almost never contacted the Lotus Gang, but when he arrived in the capital, he really needed their help.
He Qizhou changed into a horse that he snatched from the Lian brothers. The Tutang Fish Talisman that could travel unimpeded all the way was not very effective at the gate of the capital. The officers and soldiers guarding the city did not look down upon this official from a hundred households who came to the capital alone.
, and after some interrogation and inspection, they were released.
He Qizhou didn't dare to ask for directions, so he turned left and right for a long time. After making sure that no one was following him, he spent about a quarter of an hour and finally found the cloth shop named "Fu Ji" at the end of a street full of shops.
OK. Entering the store, he saw a customer picking goods. He Qizhou pretended to look at the fabric and wanted to wait until the customer left before talking. Unexpectedly, a waiter came up to him and asked, "What kind of fabric does the guest want to buy?"
"Oh, I have a friend who said that your shopkeeper Fu knows the goods and asked me to bring two fine Western Region blankets. I want to use the treasure land to sell them. I wonder if I can ask shopkeeper Fu to tell me." He Qizhou took off the package from his back and said. Xu Mu
The blanket prepared to keep out the cold was never used, and He Qizhou used it as an excuse.
The waiter's enthusiasm suddenly dropped by three points and said: "It turns out it's a consignment. Our big boss usually doesn't care about the store's affairs. Why don't we let the second shopkeeper take a look."
The second shopkeeper was an old man over sixty years old. He had just sent away the customers who had bought the cloth. He walked out from behind the counter and said, "I don't know what kind of friends Fu Sheng has made. Let me take a look."
He Qizhou was secretly anxious. After handing over the package, he thought about how to find a better excuse to meet this "big boss".
The old man untied the baggage, looked through it carefully, and said: "It is indeed high-quality wool, and the weaver is good. So, don't sell it on consignment. You can give me a price, and if it is suitable, I will accept it."
He Qizhou said: "My friend also asked me to bring a message to the shopkeeper Fushan. I wonder if it is convenient for the old shopkeeper to ask Boss Fu to come out?"
"Has he gone drinking? Is he at home?" the old shopkeeper turned to the young man and asked.
"I don't think I saw him going out," the boy said.
"Then go inside and have a look." The old shopkeeper gave the order and turned to He Qizhou and said, "I haven't been able to buy any good stuff recently. These two blankets of yours should be able to sell for a good price."
"Then it's hard work, old shopkeeper. My friend said that no matter what the price is, he will only receive payment for one item, and the other item will be regarded as your store's reward." He Qizhou said.
"The Point Guard Is Here"
"It's rare that that guy actually has such a friend." The old shopkeeper said with a smile.
"Uncle, can't I have a few friends on the road?" A man dressed in silk and satin walked out of the cloth store. He looked to be in his thirties, wearing a gold chain around his neck and white jade around his waist.
"Are you ready to go out again before it gets dark?" the old shopkeeper said angrily.
"Wuling is young, it's early to become romantic, hahaha..." the jade-wearing man said with a smile.
"Look at all the friends you have made, the Fu family will be defeated by you sooner or later!" The old shopkeeper looked angry and looked at He Qizhou after speaking.
"I will never wear this face again. I will suffer a big loss!" He Qizhou sighed in his heart.
"Friend, how do you call me that? You seem very familiar. I wonder who wants to give me a message?" Boss Fu walked towards He Qizhou.
"My surname is Zhou, and the person who brought the message was Boss Guo. Seeing that I was coming to Beijing, he asked me to bring two blankets over and wanted to ask you to sell them on my behalf." He Qizhou said.
"Boss Guo? Which Boss Guo? What did you say?"
"Excuse me for a moment?" He Qizhou whispered.
"Okay, but hurry up, I have an appointment with a friend." After saying this, Fushan took He Qizhou into the inner room of the cloth shop and motioned to the boy to make tea.
"Without vines or branches, the pavilion is pure and clear. It's strange next week. It was introduced by boss Guo Wen." Seeing that there was no one in the back room, He Qizhou read out the secret code of the capital's helm, and took out the hall master's token from his arms.
"See the hall master!" Fukuyama immediately put away his cynicism, knelt down and clasped his fists.
"There is no need to be formal, Shopkeeper Fu. As the master of the hall, I get a lot of benefits and I can't count. I really want to ask you for something this time," He Qizhou said.
"Put it away quickly. It's not a joke to be found to be from the Lotus Gang." After Fushan paid his respects, he hurriedly asked He Qizhou to put away the silver lotus.
"The people in the store don't know your identity?" He Qizhou asked.
"I don't know, let's talk somewhere else." Fushan whispered, stood up and walked outside the store, motioning for He Qizhou to follow, and then said loudly: "Brother Zhou, I didn't expect Boss Guo to be so polite. Come on, let's go to the wine shop and have a good time."
Let’s talk, the Orchid there is absolutely beautiful!”
"Sir, the tea is ready..." the waiter called.
"Give it to the old shopkeeper." Fushan had already pulled He Qizhou out of the shop.
"Go, go, go! Drink your yellow soup!" the old shopkeeper said angrily.
He Qizhou led the horse tied outside the store, followed Fushan, and asked: "Why is the shopkeeper so cruel to you, the boss?"
"He is my uncle-in-law, and this shop is entirely run by him. It is normal to be a little fierce." Fukuyama said as he walked.
"Maybe I'm angry with you for spending money indiscriminately?" He Qizhou asked with a smile.
Fukuyama whispered: "Exactly. My ancestor was originally a marquis. After the fourth or fifth generation, he has been defeated for a long time. The cloth shop is just a cover. Without the secret income of the Lotus Gang, how could I have so much money?
.I often go out at night to hang out, just to facilitate the gang affairs. My uncle only thinks that I still have some wealth, and I don’t want to tell him in detail, lest something happen in the future and involve them."
"I just rely on a password and a token, do you believe me so much?" He Qizhou said.
Fushan smiled and said: "There will definitely be no more than three people in the gang who know where I live. Since I am sure that you are sent by Brother Guo, even if I am asked to assassinate the emperor, I will not blink an eye."
"That's not true." He Qizhou hurriedly waved his hand and said, suddenly feeling impressed by the other party's boldness.
The two of them walked for about a stick of incense and came to a more prosperous street. A tall city wall was faintly visible at the end of the long street. He Qizhou knew that Zhongjing Qingcheng was divided into the outer city, the outer city and the imperial city; the outer city had no walls.
The outer city has a single wall, but now it seems that the wall of the imperial city is the tallest and most majestic.
"The imperial city is two miles square, and the city wall is four feet high and two feet thick. Is this the first time for Brother Zhou to come to Beijing?" Fushan asked when he saw He Qizhou staring at the city wall and not familiar with the road.
"good."
"We're here, let's just go to this one. There are few people now. In another hour, after dark, it will be very lively here." Fushan took He Qizhou into a restaurant called Huji Restaurant.
We walked into a small room, rolled up the bamboo curtain, and the door faced a 1-foot-square stage.
"There are few people now. There will be a song and dance performance later. Two of my brothers will be here in about half an hour. If you have anything, please tell him as soon as possible." Fushan said to He Qizhou.
He Qizhou carefully looked at the two adjacent small rooms and made sure that there was no one there, so he said: "To be honest, I have detained a member of the royal family and he is still outside the city. I would like to ask Brother Fu to find a place to stay."
.”
Fukuyama's expression changed and he said: "I never thought there would be anyone bolder than us. Well done!"
"Do you have any grudge against the royal family?" He Qizhou couldn't help but ask.
