When Tongshan asked me, I was still thinking about the mysterious shrine just now. Until now, I have been curious, whose ranking is behind the curtain?
There is always a feeling of being buried in a hole dug by an old monk.
Tongshan thought I didn't want to answer, so he smiled awkwardly, "You're talking too much, you're talking too much, you really can't ask about this!"
I glanced at Tongshan, hesitated for less than a second, nodded decisively, and said, "It's lit."
Tongshan snorted, "It's normal not to light it. Since ancient times, few people can light sky lanterns, and you don't want to either..."
He didn't react until he said this, turned his head sharply, and looked at me in disbelief.
"What did you say? It's really lit?"
I nodded solemnly, "I hope my brother can help me keep the secret, this is no joke!"
Tongshan's expression changed again and again, as if he couldn't believe this was true. He stared at me closely, and his eyes slowly became serious, even with a hint of awe.
"Elder Zhang, don't worry. I, Tongshan, swear that I will never tell anyone besides me about this matter. Otherwise, I will be struck by lightning and die..."
I didn't expect Tongshan to swear, so I quickly reached out to stop him.
"What are you doing? I tell you this secret because I trust you. Although we have only met twice, I feel that I understand you. You are the kind of man with a strong heart. I will never do this.
Wrong."
Hearing this, Tongshan's expression became solemn and at the same time there was a touch of gratitude, and there was even more sparkle in his big eyes. He took a deep breath and gave me a fierce fist.
"Elder Zhang, I didn't expect you to have the appearance of a celestial being. If you don't dislike me, I, Tongshan, will be yours from now on. No matter what you want to do, I will support you. I will never leave you!"
I quickly grabbed his hand and felt a little excited in my heart. Tongshan is definitely a good man in the world and a real man.
"Brother Tongshan, if you think highly of me, just call me Jiuyang, or just call me brother, don't call me elder brother, just listen."
Tongshan was a straightforward big man. When I said that, he immediately laughed and held me tightly with his backhand.
"Brothers!"
"Brothers!"
We both looked at each other and smiled, feeling excited for a moment.
The little fox looked at me with admiration, with stars in his eyes, "Brother, you are so awesome, both men and women are welcome, you are my idol! No wonder my ancestor's eyes looked a little different when he said it.
, I’m very curious about how you conquered her, please teach me!”
My face suddenly turned dark, and the good atmosphere was ruined by his words. I glared at him fiercely, and then I laughed out loud and gave Tongshan a bear hug.
"By the way, Brother Tongshan, do you know where this old monk came from?" I asked the question in my mind.
Tongshan glanced back at the shop that was already far away, "Brother, this master has some background. I heard my father say, oh, by the way, you also recognize my father. He is the old man Tang you call him."
"Old Tang is your father, you are father and son?"
I opened my mouth in surprise. It was impossible no matter how I looked at it. If nothing else, just take the heights of the two people as an example. They were so different. What kind of genes could be so anti-scientific?
Tongshan smiled helplessly, "Actually, this is also my little secret. I have never told anyone else except you. Even other people in the Tang Sect don't know. To the outside world, I have always been a master and apprentice. The reason why my father is like this
We do it for better self-protection. After all, the internal fighting in the Tang Sect is too dark. If they find out that we are father and son, we will definitely be plotted against by someone with ulterior motives."
"Is the internal strife in the Tang Sect serious?" I asked with some curiosity. This was the first time I came to understand the Tang Sect in a real sense.
"It's very serious. It can be said that there is a fierce rivalry between several elders. Although they are harmonious on the surface, they are actually fighting to the death. As long as there is a chance, they want to kill each other, let alone the people below.
You have to be careful about this. This time, besides you, our Tang Sect has two Tianzi elders coming. They already know the news that you got the Tianzi Token. If they come across it, I'm worried.
They will take action against you."
"Two are coming!" My eyes suddenly lit up.
"Well done, well done!" I sneered.
"I'm afraid they won't come! Save me the trouble of looking for them. Since the Tang Sect is at odds within itself, I have nothing to worry about. It's time for such a large sect to reshuffle its cards!"
"Brother, could you be...?"
I raised my head, my eyes became serious, and after a moment of hesitation, I said, "Brother Tongshan, if I tell you that I want to unify the Tang Sect, will you support me?"
"ah?!"
Tongshan visibly took a breath, with a look of shock on his face.
"Brother, are you kidding? There are ten or twenty thousand people in the Tang Sect, and the situation within the gang is extremely complicated..."
Before Tongshan finished speaking, I smiled slightly and asked again: "Will you support me?"
Tongshan looked at me deeply, and then nodded heavily.
"Thanks!"
"Between brothers, don't talk about this!"
"Okay, let's continue the topic just now. Where did we talk?"
"When it comes to my dad and I, do you find it unbelievable? Why is there such a big gap between our father and son?"
I nodded, "It's indeed quite big. If you didn't tell me, I would never think about it in my life."
A wry smile appeared on Tongshan's face, "Actually, my dad was also very tall when he was young, but later he was poisoned by a strange poison, and all the muscles and bones in his body were broken. Although he was later rescued by an expert,
However, his body was left disabled as a result. In addition, he forcibly exercised his muscles and bones, which caused his body to shrink, which turned it into what it is now. Until now, he still has a lot of problems. Every night at midnight, he will have pain in his muscles and bones, especially
On the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, the condition will be particularly serious. The reason why I participated in this auction is to buy two special medicines to cleanse his menstrual marrow and relieve the pain in his body."
I sighed softly. I didn't expect that Old Man Wang would have such a tragic story, but when I heard about Old Man Tang's problem, why did I feel that it was somewhat similar to my grandfather's original problem?
While I was thinking wildly, Tongshan brought the topic back again.
"Let's continue talking about the old monk just now. It is said that he is not an ordinary person. He was a ruthless man who went to the battlefield and killed Xiaosheng. I heard from Old Man Tang that at least hundreds of Xiaosheng died in his hands.
people."
"So awesome! That's a ruthless person!" I was extremely surprised.
"That's not true, I've heard that..."
Having said this, Tongshan looked around and saw that there was no one around. Then he lowered his voice, pointed to the top of his head and said to me: "It is said that he saved a big shot back then, and later returned it to this person."
A great man worked as a bodyguard for a period of time, and it was not until the world was at peace that he became a monk again."
"Oh, that's it, no wonder!"
After listening to Tongshan's story, I breathed a long sigh of relief. I understood the background of this old monk, and many of my worries disappeared.
"Otherwise, do you think ordinary people can build temples in the Forbidden City? There are so many big figures worshiping there. There are dragons and tigers hidden everywhere in the Forbidden City!"
I nodded in agreement. Although it was my first time to come to the Imperial Capital today, everything I saw and heard confirmed the original rumors.
Where is the depth of the water in this place!
It is not an easy thing to play alone in a place like this.
While I was thinking about it, I suddenly received a text message on my phone. I opened it and saw that it was from Qing Yi. But after I read it, my face changed drastically.
The golden body is out of trouble, so be careful.
Just 8 words, but it was like a bolt from the blue, killing me on the spot, and I couldn't recover for a long time.
Unexpectedly, the thing he was most worried about happened. Buhuanggu's escape would surely set off a bloody storm. But if you ask who he wanted to settle the score with most, it was of course me!
I quickly sent a message back to Qing Yi, wanting to ask about the specific situation. I prayed in my heart that this old monster should not come to the imperial capital.
However, Qingyi's message did not arrive, but a group of uninvited guests arrived.
"Hey, isn't this Tongshan? Didn't your good-for-nothing dad come with you? I heard that you want to buy herbs. Do you have enough money?" A hoarse and sinister voice sounded from the other side.
I looked up and saw a dozen people walking straight towards us from the corner.
Tongshan's expression changed, "It's bad, tell Cao Cao, Cao Cao said, people from the Tang Sect are here!"
