Beiyin Great Sage Chapter 535

Chapter 535 Message

Time is the most ruthless, unchangeable by anyone's will.

Spring goes and autumn comes...

In the blink of an eye, winter has arrived.

I don't know which day.

Flying snow covered the earth all over the sky, and the mountains and mountains were all covered with white robes. A gust of mountain wind blew past, and countless snowflakes fell from the treetops.

On the south side of the courtyard.

The dead wood set up a fire, which was burning blazingly, and the sound of "cracking" sounded from time to time, which also drove the severe cold outside.

Several people rubbed their hands and squatted around the fire, chatting around the fire.

"I heard that the Danyang army has been driven out of Qizhou. The general Li Shi sent by the imperial court is worthy of a generation of famous generals. He reversed the situation in just a few months."

"Yes."

Someone nodded:

"General Li is a master from Tianlong Temple. He possesses superb martial arts and has incredible courage!"

"No." Wang Huyuan, who was curled up to warm himself by the fire, said:

"To control tens of thousands of people marching and fighting, the most important thing is to arrange troops, and the bravery of a single person is second. This is the key to Li Shi's victory."

"Having said that, General Li's strength is also very important." The man who spoke just now said a little unconvinced:

"When General Li first arrived in Qizhou, he was assassinated by Jianghu masters and red lotus demons. If he has no skills, he may not have anything to do later."

"really!"

"I heard that the leader of the Red Lotus Sect took action at that time, but General Li was not injured in this way, and almost all of them were killed."

"Impossible!" Wang Huyuan shook his head:

"The leader of the Red Lotus Sect is as famous as the head of our Lin family. If he makes a move, Li Shi will never be fine even though he is strong."

"The situation that day was one-sided, there must be no real master!"

"You..." Someone was speechless:

"Although General Li is young, he is known as a once-in-century martial arts prodigy. It may not be impossible to have such abilities."

"Speak." One person asked in a low voice:

"Who is stronger, General Li or our Lin Family Patriarch?"

"It must be the head of the house!"

"That's right. The Patriarch has been famous for decades, and Li Shi is said to be under thirty years old. The accumulation of cultivation alone is not the same."

"The head of the family is a legendary innate master, and there are no more than five fingers in the entire Liang Kingdom, and there is no general Li among them."

Everyone whispered, obviously thinking that the head of the Lin family was stronger, but they all admired General Li for sweeping away the decline of the imperial court and military, driving out the rebels, and restoring the peace of Qizhou.

in the corner.

Zhou Yi was leaning against the threshold with the stove in his hand, his eyes seemed to be half-closed, as if wandering away.

"Little Brother B."

Beside Yu Zhuang rolled up his sleeves and asked:

"Something happened to Liu Zhen's family, you know that?"

"Yes." Zhou Yi nodded:

"Uncle's old illness has relapsed, and I heard that the situation is not good. Now Liu's restaurant is unmanned. As the only son, he will definitely take over the family's business, and he probably won't come back in the future."

"Hey!" Yu Zhuang sighed softly:

"Unexpectedly, the last time I saw a person who was alive and well, why did he suddenly fall ill?"

This incident is indeed unexpected, but there are too many accidents in this world. For this, the two can only express regret.

"If Liu Zhen doesn't come to work, it seems that his sister's matter is really dead." Yu Zhuang shook his head, and couldn't help looking sideways:

"Little Brother B, have you never regretted it?"

"Regret, why don't you regret it." Zhou Yi rolled his eyes and spoke weakly:

"But the current Liu family will definitely not agree to marry a daughter, and it's useless to regret."

"Too."

Yu Zhuang nodded:

"In order to resist the Danyang rebels, Master Han, the city guard, died in battle. The Liu family has no backer, and now uncle is also... the situation is unknown."

"Marrying a daughter, we can only talk about it later."

"But now is the most difficult time for the Liu family. If Brother Yi can help out more, it shouldn't be a problem to get a wife in the future!"

"How can I help?" Zhou Yi shook his head:

"Zhou doesn't know how to do business, let alone cook, and he doesn't know anything about restaurant business. If you have the heart, you can go there often."

"Maybe..."

"Then the sisters of the Liu family will fall in love with you because of this."

"Brother B was joking." Yu Zhuang rubbed his hands together, his face showing embarrassment, but his eyes flickered from time to time, it seemed that he had made a decision in his heart.

Zhou Yi glanced at him, chuckled and said nothing, he could see that Yu Zhuang was very concerned about Liu Man, otherwise he wouldn't often ask him side-by-side.

I don't know if Liu Man will take a fancy to him.

It is true that the Liu family is in trouble now, but the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, and a small nursing home may not be taken seriously.

"Little Brother B!"

At this time, a person came running from outside and said:

"Someone looking for you."

"Oh!" Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows and stood up:

"Who?"

He doesn't know many people in the city.

"But Zhou Yi, Mr. Zhou face to face?"

A skinny old man in heavy sackcloth and wooden boots stood in the snow, his hands and cheeks were flushed, and he clasped his fists towards him.

"Exactly."

Zhou Yi returned a salute:

"My husband is looking for me?"

While speaking, he took a slight look at the person coming.

Bronze-colored skin, wrinkled cheeks, cloudy eyes, and extremely weak breath, like an old farmer who has worked in the fields all his life.

Hands are red and swollen, abscesses and chaps can be seen.

Frozen hands!

Although his hands were severely frostbitten, the other party was obviously used to it and didn't try to protect it, maybe because he knew he didn't.

Simply let it go.

This is a habit that many people have when they are engaged in coolie errands.

"Yes." The old man seemed to seldom come to such a place, with a cautious expression, and said cautiously:

"The little old man was entrusted by the trustee Zhao San, and came here to pass a few words to you."

"Brother Zhao." Zhou Yi straightened his face:

"Old man, please tell me."

"Zhao San said that he ran all over the villages near Hongjiabao, but there is no one you are looking for, Mr. Zhou." The old man said:

"Besides, when the refugees flooded into Kunshan City, the Hongjiabao did not recruit tenants during that period, but some people did human trafficking in the name of the Hongjiabao."

"It is said that many people have disappeared because of this."

"click..."

The snow under Zhou Yi's feet sank, and his face became icy cold.

"Of course." The old man swallowed and said:

"Perhaps the person Mr. Zhou is looking for is not among them, and it may not necessarily be that he has gone to other places. After all, many refugees left the city and became tenants."

Zhou Yi didn't say anything, and said for a long time:

"Did Third Brother Zhao ever say, who are those who trade in human beings? Don't the imperial court and the Yamen care?"

"This..." The old man's eyes changed, and after thinking about it, he said in a low voice:

"I heard that it is related to the Red Lotus Sect."

After the sound fell, he waved his hands hurriedly:

"Young Master Zhou, please don't spread it to outsiders, let alone the little old man. The little old man doesn't know about these things at all, and he just spread the word."

"I understand." Zhou Yi nodded, took a deep breath, and asked:

"Where is Brother Zhao?"

"But you sent a letter to someone again?"

"No." The old man shook his head, his eyes darkened:

"He died. He was killed by a passer-by who delivered the letter. I don't know who killed him. Everything on his body was looted except for the letterhead."

There was silence in the field.

Zhou Yi looked at the other party, his heart surging with emotion.

Long time,

Fang said in a harsh voice:

"Brother Zhao is really a believer."

The old man nodded.

It's not easy to be a messenger these days. There are not many people who die in foreign countries or on the way of illness. Zhao San is just one of them.

"Yes... I'm sorry." Taking a deep breath, Zhou Yi took out two taels of silver from his body, and forced it into the opponent's arms regardless of the old man's push:

"Travel all the way, these are my wishes, don't refuse."

"In addition, I don't know where the third brother Zhao's body is buried? Do you have any family members? Zhou plans to go to worship in a few days."

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for the reward." The old man held the silver tightly in both hands, and wanted to kneel on the ground many times with an excited face, but was lifted.

"Zhao San has no family members, his body is placed in Yizhuang, and will probably be buried in a mass grave outside the city."

"I'll be there."

Watching the old man leave, Zhou Yili remained motionless in the snow, and many things that he thought he had forgotten quietly surfaced in his mind.

Vividly!

I heard about Xu Liu's strange eyes when Uncle Zheng became a tenant.

The secret deal between the Red Lotus Cultists and the Giant Whale Gang.

Some rumors in the market.

Uncle Zheng's appearance, Aunt Bai's frightened expression, my daughter's innocent eyes, and Zhao San's solemnity when he promised.

"Ah…"

With a soft snort, Zhou Yi slowly bowed his head, his hands were bulging with blue veins, and the saber at his waist trembled without wind.

"Zheng!"

The sound of the knife groaned softly.

At this time, the self is not what it used to be, and there is no need to wait for things to come before dealing with them.

Liu Mansion.

"Brother Liu!"

Zhou Yi and Yu Zhuang bowed their hands towards Liu Zhen.

"Why are you here?" Seeing the two of them, Liu Zhen was overjoyed, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to draw him in, shaking his head and saying:

"Come in quickly, come here and get something?"

"I heard that Uncle is not in good health, so let's come and have a look." Yu Zhuang handed the things to the manager of the Liu family, and said:

"It contains the Ganoderma lucidum that Little Brother Yi took, and the elixir I brought out from the Martial Academy. Let them see if they can be used."

"I have a heart." Liu Zhen's eyes flashed with worry:

"sit!"

At the same time, he ordered the servants:

"Go make tea!"

"Yes." The servant bowed and said yes, bowing his head and retreating.

After not seeing him for a while, Liu Zhen lost a lot of weight, his face was exhausted, and his chubby body was thinned out, giving off a mature and steady feeling.

Father Liu's body is abnormal, and he is so young and ignorant that it is difficult to persevere with all the affairs on his body.

Only when you grow up can you shoulder what you should resist.

The changes happen silently.

"Even if Brother Liu doesn't go to the small courtyard anymore, we are still colleagues, and the relationship between us will not change." After sitting down, Yu Zhuang said seriously:

"If there is something useful, just ask, we will help if we can!"

"Thank you very much."

Liu Zhen's eyes moved, and his nod should be:

"Brother Yu has a heart."

He went to the Lin family's outer courtyard to make some friends, but the ones who can help the Liu family's business are the rich families such as the Li family and the Su family.

Never mind.

After all, Liu Zhen is young, and he can't let go of his face to cling to him. The relationship with Li Yu and others can only be said to be neither far nor close.

On the contrary, he was able to talk better with Yu Zhuang, Zhou Yi and others. Now that Liu's family was killed, only Yu Zhuang offered to help.

No matter what his strength is, this heart warms his heart.

"Brother Liu."

After being polite to each other for a while, Zhou Yi said slowly:

"Do you still remember the time when you accompanied me to Jimin Lane?"

"Well…"

Liu Zhen rests his chin on his hand:

"It happened a long time ago, but I remember it very clearly. At that time, some members of the Giant Whale Gang provoked you somehow."

"I even slapped one of them."

"Yes." Zhou Yi nodded:

"Thank you, Brother Liu."

"It's a thing of the past." Liu Zhen waved his hand:

"How did Brother Zhou think of mentioning this?"

"That's right." Zhou Yi straightened his body and said:

"I remember Brother Liu said that besides the restaurant business, the Liu family can also know all the news inside and outside the city."

"I wonder if you can help me find some members of the Giant Whale Gang?"

"Uh..." Liu Zhen scratched his head and smiled dryly:

"I'm exaggerating, and I can't take it seriously, but it's not difficult to find a few giant whale gangs to help people. Even if that person didn't die back then, he could find it."

"Thank you." Zhou Yi got up and clasped his hands solemnly:

"This matter is very important to me, and I hope Brother Liu will help me, and I will definitely be rewarded afterwards!"

"No, no." Liu Zhen stood up and waved his hands:

"I'll arrange for someone to investigate."
