The Book of Troubled Times Chapter 139

  Chapter 139 Gusu Tang Family

"Although my Tang family is in Gusu, Gusu's surname is not Tang, which is different from Cui's family in Qinghe." In the carriage, Tang Buqi leaned in the arms of the little maid and tasted wine leisurely, and briefly introduced the situation of Gusu to Zhao Changhe: " My Tang family is not a top-notch family like the Cui family, so it's hard to compare, I suggest you keep an eye on Cui Yuanyang, ah, don't think about anything else."

  Zhao Changhe leaned against the wall of the room very speechless, one leaned against the maid and the other leaned against the wall of the room. He was already upset, but this made him even more upset: "Introduce Gusu, introduce Gusu, what are you doing with the Cui family?"

   Tang Buqi was quite comfortable: "Isn't this convenient for you to make an intuitive comparison?"

   "I don't need you to compare. Everyone has heard of what Qinghe Cui said. Has anyone heard of Gusu Tang? Caiji is still very proud."

   "...The Tang family was at least famous in the current dynasty! It has the merits of being a dragon! How could others have never heard of it? Who are the bandits in Beiman talking about?"

"I think if it wasn't for Tang Wanzhuang, the top three rankings at a young age, and the first rank in the dynasty, this family can be supported... If they are all like you... Heck, in the future, the former Yan of the Tang family will fly into the bandit's house , is not unimaginable..."

  Tang Buqi glared angrily: "Every family has people who focus on reading, and they don't rely on martial arts to rule the country!"

"Really? Why did your aunt rush to break through so much that she hurt her lung meridian? I suggest you guys think about it. Don't take advantage of other people's desperate efforts to lean on the little maid and eat grapes leisurely. drink her blood."

  Tang Buqi was stunned, his anger gradually disappeared, he stared at the wine in a daze and stopped talking.

  Zhao Changhe squinted at him for a long while, finally didn't say much, and turned to the main topic: "So there are many big and small families in Gusu, right. The Tang family should be regarded as the leader in the local area because of their position as the head of the town magic division."

"…good."

   "By the way, is there Gusu Murong? I think they are more famous than the Tang family."

   "I haven't heard of it, how did you hear these messy things?"

   "Do you have any clues about the place that is suspected to be evil? Is it Tiger Hill Sword Pool?"

   Tang Buqi was a little surprised: "Hey, where do you know Gusu? Haven't you been in the north all your life?"

   "Hmm, are you right?"

   "Take a hammer! Huqiu Sword Pool is right behind my house!"

  Zhao Changhe: "Grass."

"But having said that, a long time ago, oh, let's say that in the last era, there was indeed a problem with the evil spirit of Huqiu Sword Pool, and there may be evil swords hidden in it. But my family has already circled this place, and generations before and after have put it here. I can feel it clearly, and there is nothing, so what I said this time should have nothing to do with it."

  Zhao Changhe rubbed his chin in thought, maybe it might not be irrelevant. Judging from Gu Jianhu's previous experience, there might be a dungeon. It's just that a group of strong people in your family patrolled and the dungeon was closed.

   "Are there any rumors of ghosts in your family? Who has been attacked by evil spirits? Could it even be related to your aunt's illness?"

   "I know what you think...but unfortunately, no. My aunt's illness fell in the capital last year, not at home."

   "..." Zhao Changhe still feels that possibility exists. According to current experience, the rumors related to the "last era" are beyond the understanding of low-level martial arts people in the current world. It is normal for them to be confused.

  Of course, this is only a possibility, not a fact. You still have to go to Gusu to explore the details.

   "What about other rumors? How did Fa Yuan judge that things are more likely to be in Gusu?"

   "How do I know what Fa Yuan bases his judgment on? Then I haven't finished writing the reply."

During the discussion, the little maid who had been feeding wine and grapes to Tang Buqi hesitated and said, "Before I went out, there were rumors that someone suddenly went berserk and hacked people in the market in the south of the city, and was shot dead on the spot by the passing Lu family master. At first I thought it was a random incident, but then Young Master Lu also suddenly went crazy, and people said he was insane. Then we went out, and we don't know what happened next."

  Tang Buqi was stunned: "Young master of the Lu family, is it Lu Shaoxiong? This guy still has friendship with me, why haven't I heard of it?"

  The maid glanced at him carefully: "At that time, young master, you were drunk for five days in Xunhua Lane, and young mistress was crying at home... When you came back, you were scolded by the master, and you were kicked out to practice."

  Tang Buqi's face turned into a pig's liver.

  Zhao Changhe turned his head to look out the car window.

   There is no more words along the way, the chat has been killed.

  It was originally just an incident of slashing people and going mad, which are commonplace and don't mean anything. But since the two incidents are related, and it is against the background that the Maitreya Sect is looking for this evil place, it is worth exploring.

  Yangzhou is not far from Gusu. The group speeded up and arrived soon.

  I feel that the closer to Gusu, the less the weird atmosphere of Maitreya. I have never seen any scenes of worshiping Buddha and Maitreya, and I have never heard people talking about "God Buddha" and "Bodhisattva" everywhere I go.

   There are temples, but it is also very deserted.

  It seems that even if the Maitreya Sect is spread all over the south of the Yangtze River, at least in Gusu, the stronghold of Tang Wanzhuang, they still dare not bubbling easily.

  But Zhao Changhe still intuitively felt that the Maitreya Sect would not wait for everything to be ready.

  The change in Yangzhou must have dealt a huge blow to the Maitreya Sect. The list and various information obtained by the search followed the vines. The development of the Maitreya Sect for many years near Yangzhou may be in vain in a short time. Most likely, the leader Maitreya will not sit back and watch this situation continue, and there is a great possibility to activate it in advance.

  During the Yangzhou Incident, Maitreya was in Jinling looking for the treasure of evil spirits. He didn't know what happened, but he must know now, and there is a high probability that he has returned to the main altar to prepare for operation. The opportunity to launch it might be the information connection after Chili returned. Once the Hu people go south, the Jiangnan Maitreya Sect will definitely make trouble.

   This is a deduction on the surface.

  In this process, the Maitreya Sect will definitely not let go of Gusu, a pure land surrounded by the south of the Yangtze River but not invaded by the Maitreya Sect, and must take action. If no corresponding precautions were taken, the tragedy of the Tang family might come suddenly.

  Gusu at this moment is likely to be the last peace.

   I don't know if Tang Wanzhuang will think about this after receiving the report from Yangzhou. In short, Tang Buqi doesn't seem to have thought about it, let alone the Tang family.

  When I arrived at Tang's house, I couldn't even see the austere atmosphere that was about to come. The servants came and went, and when I walked in, I heard the sound of silk and bamboo in the attic in the distance, and a large group of people nearby were booing around Tang Buqi:

   "The young master is back?"

   "The young master went out hard... Oh, he's all tanned."

   "I heard that the young master killed the barbarian, wisely solved the assassination case of the magistrate, and thwarted the conspiracy of the Maitreya Sect in Yangzhou!"

   "The young master really gave us a long face!"

  Without Zhao Changhe by his side, Tang Buqi would surely hold his head up high and enjoy the pursuit. But feeling Zhao Changhe's sideways squinting eyes that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, Tang Buqi just wanted to cover his face: "Okay, okay, there is nothing worth bragging about a little thing, the whole guest house, hello Hello my guest."

   The servants looked at Zhao Changhe, knowing that this was Qianlong Thirty-eight, stronger than everyone present, but there was a slight invisible contempt in their eyes.

  Young master is really capable of hanging out with anyone. I used to suspect that a certain old beggar was a peerless master, and even invited someone to come to his house to greet him, but it was finally confirmed that he was the real old beggar, which made the master very angry. This time with another gangster...

  Of course, I dare not show this attitude in front of Tang Buqi, the young master can beat people if he throws a splash.

   Then a housekeeper nodded and bowed: "Young Master Zhao, please come with me, the quiet guest house, Young Master Bao is satisfied."

  Zhao Changhe took in all the expressions of the people and smiled slightly.

  Aristocratic family...the home maintained by Tang Wanzhuang.

  He didn't bother to care about these things, he just said: "It's fine to live in whatever you want, it's serious to watch my horse, and then someone will take me to the back mountain. I want to see the Tiger Hill Sword Pond first."
