Chapter 71 A chance encounter with a silhouette in a restaurant
Chang Xiao is very sensitive to the word "living Buddha". Because of Wang Xunfeng's request, before Wang Xunfeng died, he begged Chang Xiao to kill Wang Renfu with one blow when he saw him. Wang Xunfeng would rather have the Wang family cut off than allow a Lamaist living Buddha to appear in his family.
.
At that time, Chang Xiao only thought it was Wang Xunfeng's confused words. After all, Chang Xiao, an outsider, had nothing to say about this kind of thing. Asking someone to kill your grandson was something that even a close friend couldn't entrust to you!
So Chang Xiao did not agree to Wang Xunfeng at that time, but he remembered the matter in his heart. Later, Wang Xunfeng handed over his family property and a hundred private soldiers to Chang Xiao. Only then did Chang Xiao realize that Wang Xunfeng's words of entrustment were not true.
Confusing words, but words of helplessness. There is no one to rely on. I can only rely on him to always laugh at an outsider.
However, Chang Xiao just wrote down this incident. Chang Xiao had never thought about killing the living Buddha. After arriving in the capital, Chang Xiao was so busy that he never thought of it. He didn't expect to hear this by chance today.
When it came to the word "living Buddha", these two words immediately penetrated deep into his ears.
Changxiao immediately listened attentively.
Deji frowned slightly and said: "What if your family breaks up with the emperor? The Living Buddha is the most important and noble figure in our Tantric Sect. There can be no mistakes. You can send a message to Master Zhang. If he can
To rescue the Living Buddha, our tantric sect is willing to pay any price! Whatever he wants to do will not be a problem."
The scribe couldn't help but frown slightly when he heard the other party calling the emperor emperor, but he also knew that he couldn't explain to these barbarians what the etiquette between the emperor and his subjects was, so he nodded and said: "Master Zhang said, now the capital court
If the Central Government is unstable, Qian Long, Xi Qian, the chief minister, and his assistants may all be imprisoned for questioning. That is why the Holy One is not willing to touch your Lamaism at this time. After all, the Jiubian side is also a pot of porridge, and there are chaos everywhere. If the Central Government does not continue to
An'an is already in a mess. If we kill the living Buddha of Tantric Buddhism at this time, I'm afraid your Tantric Buddhism will also cause chaos. The situation in the court will become more chaotic, and even the emperor will feel embarrassed! Therefore, my family is 70% sure that we can persuade
The Emperor released the Living Buddha, so you must not cause any trouble at this time. You must know that the temper of the Holy Emperor today is that he will never compromise. If you make trouble and anger the Holy Emperor, I am afraid that the Holy Emperor will really kill the Living Buddha with one sword and say nothing else.
."
"He dares!" Xieba slammed the table hard, and the food and wine on the table were jumping around, so that everyone eating around them was startled and looked at the three of them.
The middle-aged scribe hurriedly raised his hands to the surroundings. After everyone turned their heads, the middle-aged scribe frowned and reprimanded in a low voice: "What kind of place do you think this is? Are you seeking death by speaking harshly?"
"
Xieba's chubby face was stern and he grinned broadly. He was about to speak, but was stopped by Deji. Xieba had a bad mouth. If he opened his mouth, he would probably start scolding the middle-aged scribe. Now they are still
You have to rely on the other party and don’t go too far!
Deji said: "We will give your master ten days. If he cannot give us an accurate message after ten days, we will do it ourselves. You tell your master that there is no problem for him to ask us to help him with things, but he
If we can't accomplish our task, we will keep it to keep him awake and sleepless. With our methods, it won't take much effort to kill his whole family."
The middle-aged scribe's eyelids twitched, his face instantly turned blue, and the beard on his chin trembled a few times. Then he snorted, stood up, and thumped downstairs.
Deji sneered and said a few more words to Xieba, and then started eating and drinking, which can be said to be gobbling up. Deji was better, after all, he stayed in the Central Plains longer, and Xieba couldn't use chopsticks or anything like that.
I didn't bother to use it at all, I just grabbed it and my hands were full of oil.
It turns out that the Living Buddha has been secretly sent to the capital!
"Master? Master?"
Chang Xiao was called back to his senses by Manager Lin, and he smiled and continued talking to Manager Lin Wang Gui. Chang Xiao did not want Wang Gui to know that the lamas behind him were here to rescue the living Buddha. Wang Gui was Wang Xunfeng's old subordinate, and Wang Xunfeng could deal with it.
He often laughs at the fact that if an outsider begs to see Wang Renfu, he will kill him with one knife. He will definitely explain it more thoroughly to Wang Gui and others.
After all, Chang Xiao didn't know Wang Gui very well, so he couldn't guess what Wang Gui would do after knowing the whereabouts of the living Buddha. Although this was the place where Wang Renfu was being imprisoned after all, he didn't quite believe what Wang Gui would do, but
The less uncontrollable things like this are, the better. If the emperor decides to send the living Buddha away instead of killing Wang Renfu, if Wang Gui does something bad at that time, he may be implicated. After all, Wang Gui will
You also have No. 100 private soldiers under your command. If you use these people well, they will be a help; if not, they will be a disaster.
The two lamas stopped talking. After eating and drinking, they got up and left. Chang Xiao thought about it for a while, but didn't follow him after all. People should know how many bowls of rice they can eat. He has no control over the lama's affairs, and it's not like him.
Even if a small person like him can take care of it, he doesn't have the extra energy to take care of it. Even if these lamas rebel and go to rob Tianlao, it won't be his turn to take care of it.
The most important thing for Chang Xiao now is to tinker with that thing first. With that thing, his survival will be guaranteed. Qing Niao and his ilk are just scum. Although Chang Xiao has removed Leng Tou Qing's soul from
The body was expelled and destroyed, but the sense of crisis did not completely disappear.
Because Qing Niao made it clear at the time, Leng Tou Qing transformed his three souls and six souls into two complete souls. One is lurking in his body, and the other may go to Qing Niao. Qing Niao is a woman who often laughs.
I have never been able to see through it. She is so smart and so good at lying that she cannot tell which sentence is a lie and which sentence is the truth, or whether it is all lies or all the truth. Although Qingxiao said that she has met
Once the soul of Leng Tou Qing is reached, she will kill it to prevent Leng Tou Qing from pestering her again, but who knows what will happen when these two guys meet, maybe they will have to discuss how to occupy his ever-laughing body again.
Already.
Regarding enemies, Chang Xiao never underestimates their evil intentions towards him. Even if the opponent is a gentleman, he must be treated as a despicable villain, so as not to fall into trouble for no apparent reason.
What Chang Xiao is most interested in is not these lamas, but Mr. Zhang. Since this Mr. Zhang can speak well in the court, and even dares to say such words as to persuade the emperor, then his status will not be too low, and he can even be able to
If it affects the emperor's decision-making, Mr. Zhang helps the lama, even in this era, he should be regarded as a traitor. Traitors are always laughed at, and they are never welcome.
Chang Xiao opened a small crack in the window and looked out, and saw the middle-aged scribe just coming out of the restaurant. There was a carriage waiting on the left side of the door. When the middle-aged scribe came out, the carriage came forward and picked up the middle-aged scribe.
The scribe left.
This is a very ordinary carriage, neither new nor old. It is very ordinary. In later generations, this kind of carriage was at the level of Santana. It was all over the streets and ran everywhere. Once it merged into the traffic flow, it would never be seen again.
Can't find it.
Obviously the other party also has some taboos, so he is so careful. Presumably this carriage will not go directly back to Mr. Zhang. It has to go around in circles on the street. It is impossible to keep up.
Chang Xiao frowned slightly, and then lowered the window. It didn't matter if he couldn't keep up with the other person. He just knew the other person's surname was Zhang. The court is so small, and there are only so many people who can talk. Check up and down to see who is against him.
It was immediately apparent. Having good ears and eyes has many benefits. You can detect some secret things when others don't expect it. Chang Xiao even had the idea of spending more time in teahouses and restaurants in the future.
Hey, Chang Xiao suddenly felt that something was wrong with the scene just now, and quickly opened the window again. The carriage had melted into the street. Others might not be able to distinguish it, but Chang Xiao was okay. His eyesight was far beyond that of ordinary people, and he could also distinguish small differences.
, Sure enough, when Chang Xiao looked at the carriage again, he knew something was wrong, because he saw an acquaintance not far away from the carriage, and he was not particularly familiar, Chen Zhuo!
He covered his head with half a hat and pretended to be a porter carrying two baskets of black coal. His face was smeared all over, covering all his features. This image is very common in this autumn season, and people at home
As long as you have a little extra money, you have to prepare a charcoal fire to spend the winter.
But Chang Xiao still recognized him. Although the distance was far away, Chen Zhuo's slightly treacherous eyes were still recognized by Chang Xiao. From this aspect, Chen Zhuo's acting skills have not won awards. In terms of his acting career
There is still a long way to go.
Chen Zhuo was carrying the charcoal but did not pursue the carriage. After all, it would be too scary for a porter to carry two baskets of charcoal and run at full speed. Chen Zhuo walked a few steps, then put down his pick and wiped his sweat. Chang smiled thoughtfully.
Just staring at him, you can see him making a sign to a carriage in the distance, and the carriage chases the middle-aged scribe's car.
Then Chen Zhuo disappeared on the street. If Chang Xiao had not noticed Chen Zhuo, then everything would have been as normal as a river flowing into the sea. Naturally, there would be no problem.
But now Chang Xiao drew a picture in his mind, and a vague outline was drawn in his mind. This Chen Zhuo seemed to be related to Fozi. No, it should be said that there was definitely a connection. When he saw
After Chen Zhuo left Deyang City, he also went to the capital together with Mr. Wu. Judging from the situation in front of him, Chen Zhuo didn't seem to be protecting the middle-aged scribe, but more like he was monitoring and following him...
...Chang Xiao pondered for a moment, then shook his head. There was too little information, and even some random answers were just taken for granted. Since someone was already following the other party, there was no need for Chang Xiao to stand out.
There is no need for him to think too hard!
It's just that the identities of Chen Zhuo and Master Wu are not simple!
After drinking and eating, Chang Xiao returned to his house. At this time, his study had become a forbidden area. No one was allowed in or out. Even Ping'er had to knock on the door and get permission before he could enter.
Chang Xiao entered the study room, closed the door tightly, and took out a steel pipe from under the desk. The steel pipe was seamless, and there were circles of threads on the inner wall of the pipe. The whole was perfect, without any spots.
