Looking at the corpse, the carriage board was submerged in the sea of fire, and the flames were soaring into the sky. Fortunately, the sun was in the sky, the summer was hot, and there were not many pedestrians on the road, so no one noticed it for a while.
After a while, the fire gradually weakened and dropped. Seeing that everything was burned beyond recognition, Zhu Kui said to Wang Cheng: "A Cheng, if we don't go home, we must go back to the city first!"
Wang Cheng followed Zhu Kui along the original road, walking on both feet, and asked: "Third brother, why don't we know Shigang Village? Do you know who those people are? Want to kill us?"
"I don't know yet, but I think we must have offended some people in the past six months. Don't worry, I already have some candidates in mind, and I will definitely find out."
"And since someone wants to intercept me and is confident of getting rid of me, it means that the target is me, not my family. It is best for us to go back in no hurry and think about the opponent we will deal with first."
After Zhu Kui destroyed the corpse and eliminated all traces of it, he already had plans in his mind to prepare for the follow-up and resist unknown persons from continuing to assassinate him or causing trouble for his family.
"Let's first go to Master Wang Ying to recruit some brothers to help guard our house. We will prepare a carriage tomorrow. The carriage is faster than the donkey cart. We will bring you, Uncle Zhu and the others into the city that day. The county will be safe.
some."
"Everything has to wait until the person behind the scenes is found out, otherwise we cannot let down our guard."
Zhu Kui talked about his plans and plans, and Wang Cheng patted his shoulder with the back of his knife. This first battle greatly boosted the young man's confidence, and his warlike heart expanded to the extreme, and he acted fiercely: "Third brother, check
If you find out who it is, Cheng will cut off his head and throw it to the dogs."
Zhu Kui had already moved his luggage and everything from Piaoxiang Building to his new home. This time when he returned to the city, he naturally returned to his home first. At the same time, he had to think of an excuse to go to Zhao Bancheng to advance half a year's salary. In order to buy
Half of the money has been spent on the house, and the rest still needs to be bought some furniture and so on.
Going to Wang Ying's place to study and recruiting those brothers is naturally a big expense. There is no reason to talk to Zhao Bancheng. Maybe tell him directly about the interception that happened today. The bullies who provoked revenge this time are probably Zhao Bancheng's hostile trading companies.
One of the rivals.
More or less, it must have been because of the jealousy and trouble he caused by increasing the business of Piaoxianglou. Otherwise, in just over half a year, Zhu Kui really couldn't think of anyone he had offended.
Tell Wang Cheng the monthly salary, preliminary conditions, etc., and ask him to go to Wang Ying to talk to the brothers who are about to leave the army. There are at least seven or eight of them, all of whom are third-rate experts. He
Go to Piaoxiang Building by yourself, and the two brothers are going to go their separate ways.
As soon as Zhu Kui and Wang Cheng opened the door, they saw about ten strong men walking towards them, surrounding a young man dressed like a Confucian and a Taoist. After a brief memory, Isn't this Zhao Da from Gaoyou County, Guangling? How did he find him?
Zhu Kui recognized Zhao Da, and the other party naturally saw Zhu Kui who was about to go out. His pace quickened, and Zhao Da led his servants to Zhu Kui in a few moments. He greeted Zhu Kui cordially like an old friend he hadn't seen for many years:
"The lady from Piaoxianglou really didn't lie to me. Brother Zhu does live here."
Seeing Zhu Kui holding the door open with both hands, he couldn't help but said in amusement: "Why, little brother Zhu has made great progress in Yi Xue, but he calculated that Zhao is coming today, so he came to open the door to greet him."
Zhu Kui held up his hand, returned the gift, and explained: "How do you know how to do divination? It happens that I am about to go out. I don't want to see Brother Zhao personally come to visit me after three years."
"But since you are an honored guest, you have to take a moment before going out. Brother Zhao, please come in."
He made an invitation gesture, and together with Wang Cheng, led Zhao Da to the lobby in front of the door. The three of them went up to the hall and sat down separately, while the servants stood outside the hall, standing guard.
"I just bought my new home. Many of the tables are old and haven't been replaced yet. There are no servants yet, and we can't even offer a cup of tea. For any neglect, Brother Zhao also invites Haihan." Zhu
Kui first apologized, and then pointed to Wang Cheng beside him and introduced: "This is Wang Cheng, my brother from the same village. We grew up together since childhood, and our relationship is better than that of real brothers."
"A Cheng, I haven't met your brother Zhao yet. In the past, brother Zhao was very helpful to the third brother."
Wang Cheng saw that Zhao Da was wearing a high-quality scholar's shirt and had a round face. He was obviously a semi-aristocratic figure. He responded, stood up, and saluted respectfully: "Wang Cheng has met Brother Zhao."...
Zhao Da's eyes narrowed and he looked directly at Wang Cheng. His unformed cheeks were filled with rolling flames, and a fierce tiger was rushing toward him. There was a red light on his head that shot straight into the sky, indicating that his ancestor must be very glorious.
.
He thought to himself that he must have calculated correctly. This Wang Cheng has the appearance of a red tiger and is a talented general who founded the country. Just now Zhu Kui said that the two grew up in the same village, so it is even more foreseeable that this is the person destined by fate. Really
When a dragon is born, there must be tiger generals to protect it. The decisions I have made are definitely right. It is God's will that I meet them when they are young. This is a destiny. There is no way to avoid it. I have to wrong Wu Xiandi and drag him into the water. The two support each other.
, maybe you can mix up the skill of following the dragon in the future.
In fact, Zhao Da has been looking for traces of Zhu Kui for the past three years. Unfortunately, when Zhu Kui left three years ago, he refused to disclose his hometown information, so there was no news for three years, even though he heard about Moling three years ago.
There was a filial young man outside the county, and he didn't notice that Zhao Bancheng had only heard of Zhu Kui's name again in Guangling County if it hadn't been for Zhu Kui's storytelling at Piaoxiang Tower, and Zhao Bancheng's deliberate publicity.
, and you’ll be here right away.
Wang Cheng felt uncomfortable being stared at by Zhao Da, whose mother-in-law looked like a son-in-law. Seeing this, Zhu Kui on the side quickly interrupted and came to the rescue: "Brother Zhao! Brother Zhao!"
"Yeah!" He came back to his senses and said, "It doesn't matter, it's the same with or without tea." Zhao Da answered incorrectly, without any embarrassment at all, and just asked: "What did little brother Zhu just say?"
"I'm asking, Brother Zhao, what's the matter with your sudden visit after three years? Could it be that Mr. Yuanyi is coming again and wants to force me to be his disciple?" Zhu Kui asked, suddenly
He guessed that today's interception and killing could not have been carried out by Taiping Dao. If so, things would be in trouble.
Cults are the most difficult to deal with. They are vindictive, powerful, and have followers everywhere. Even if they want to hide, it is even more difficult.
"Haha!" Zhao Da laughed twice and then said: "It is inevitable that Mr. Yuanyi will miss Brother Zhu, but he will definitely not be able to get out now. In the past three years, the development of Taiping Road has become more and more rapid. Mr. Yuanyi
I have spent all my energy preaching in the Yanzhou area of the Central Plains. If I want to get news about you, it will not be so fast. Maybe in a year or two, some believers will remember to inform you about your whereabouts."
After all, accepting disciples was just a private matter. As the envoy of Taiping Taoism, Ma Yuanyi naturally focused more on teaching affairs. He was thinking about it every day in the first year, so he sent people around to inquire about Zhu Kui's whereabouts. After a year, the enthusiasm gradually faded, and those believers
They also became lazy, and the matter fell into disrepair.
"So, three years ago, Master Sun Jian and his three generals failed to keep Mr. Yuanyi alive."
"That's natural. Mr. Yuanyi is a first-class swordsman. If Sun Jian were ten years older, he would be able to capture Ma Yuanyi in one fell swoop."
"Then why did Brother Zhao come here today?" Zhu Kui asked directly. In fact, he had always been strange. He had a grudge in his heart that Zhao Da looked at him differently for no reason. He was very kind to him and gave him a gift.
Money gift.
If something is abnormal, it must be a monster.
Zhao Da naturally noticed that Zhu Kui was wary of him, but he understood all these, so he didn't care. He said with a smile: "I want little brother Zhu to go to Kuaiji County with me to visit my brother Wu Fanxian. He
Brother Zhu has already met this person, the one next to me in the thatched pavilion that day."
"Go to Kuaiji to visit Wu Fan? What's the purpose?" Zhu Kui thought to himself.
