Chapter 79 I will bear the matter of Zheyangshou!
After performing the military salute, Shentu Bao went straight to the point: "I will meet you at the end, General! Our Shentu family has been loyal for generations. Unexpectedly, overnight, my father's head was missing, and there was no one left alive in the entire Huayu Villa! Even the martial arts hall was gone.
They were slaughtered and burned to pieces, and my father's decades of hard work were ruined in one blow! The general has already found out that it was the Feiyingmen under the gelding Guo Bin who carried out this murder. Such a bloody feud must be avenged.
I hope you can help me, rush into the palace, and kill all the eunuchs to appease my father’s soul in heaven! In the future, I will be willing to be driven by you, even if I die!"
After saying this, he burst into tears.
Wei Xi frowned, with a sad look on his face, and said heartbrokenly: "My dear nephew, I am sorry for my resignation. The hatred of killing my father is irreconcilable, so of course I must avenge it! However, as you said, this matter was done by the castrated dog Guo Bin.
Is there any evidence? If there is, I will risk my life and take you to the temple to face the saint and seek justice for Brother Huayu!"
Shen Tubao sobbed and said: "I went to the villa and saw that most of the people died under the hidden weapon Soul-Sewing Eagle, and the Soul-Sewing Eagle is the Eagle Sect's unique hidden weapon. Isn't this evidence?
"
Wei Xi sighed and said: "A man will not shed tears easily, but he has not reached the sad point! I can understand the mood of my nephew, but this alone cannot bring down Guo Bin!"
Shen Tubao was furious, his eyes were about to burst, and he gritted his teeth and said: "General! So my father's blood feud has just sunk into the sea, and there will never be a day when the truth comes to light? The most hateful thing is that I know who the murderer is, but I can't do anything about it. Isn't that right?
Are you a son of man in vain?!"
"Alas! My dear nephew, please be patient. This revenge will always be avenged, but the time has not come yet. Today, the rebels of the Anle Sect are in rebellion. I will go to see the saint tomorrow morning. I recommend you and the left general Huang Pubiao, the right general Zhu Feichang and others.
We will go out together to quell the rebellion. Once we take control of the military and attack the palace in the name of Qingjun, then Guo Bin will be killed or beheaded, why don't you just do whatever you want?"
Shen Tubao turned from sadness to joy and left with a lot of gratitude.
After Shen Tubao left, Wei Xi called his younger brother Wei Qing and asked him to send five carts of gold to Guo Bin and buy his life by the pound to redeem his own people who were implicated this time.
"A total of 5,860,000 taels of gold!" Han Hu gritted his teeth in distress.
"That's not a bad thing!"
Wei Xi sneered and said: "In this way, these people are grateful and will not die for us in the future? On the other hand, they now hate Guo Bin's gang of eunuchs! These more than five million taels are spent
worth it!”
"High! It's really high!" Han Hu was so impressed that he fell to the ground.
In the early morning, Sujiazhuang was shrouded in thick fog. Sujiazhuang was built along the river, and ten miles upstream was the ancestral grave of the Guo family.
Last night Wu Qiang led his men to chase down the injured masked man, but they returned in vain. In fact, how could he really dare to chase him? He just ran out and took a walk and then came back.
Even if the masked man had one of his arms broken off by the "Ghost Shock", based on his ability, chasing after him would only give him a few heads, so he was just showing off to Guo Xuanwu.
Just showing loyalty.
After everyone had breakfast, they came to the warship by the river. Wu Qiang was busy directing people to prepare for the trip. Guo Xuanwu was running around like a cheerful rabbit, while Bao Luo and Wan Xiang were behind him, chasing him.
Round and round.
The thousand soldiers on the five warships all unsheathed their swords and watched nervously what was going on around them. They surrounded Luohutan like iron barrels to prevent the scene from last night from happening again.
Qiu Zongjie and Zhuge Yun were standing by the boat chatting, and behind Zhuge Yun stood his "newly acquired" younger brother Shen Dai.
There was no other way. He had to accept this little brother, otherwise it would be equivalent to killing him. Zhuge Yun was also in vain.
Qiu Zongjie looked at Guo Xuanwu who was playing and said with a self-deprecating smile: "Oh! If it hadn't been for him last night, I'm afraid we would all have been silenced by the masked man. This favor must be repaid!"
Zhuge Yun gently shook the mended feather fan, frowned slightly and said, "Senior brother, can you guess who the masked man was last night?"
"I can't guess." Qiu Zongjie shook his head and said, "But he exudes a very special aura. I wonder if my junior brother can sense it?"
"Yeah! I sensed it. He should be a cultivator. Senior brother, think about it carefully. How many people have you told the secret of the 'Eye of Ten Thousand Demons'? How many of them are cultivators? I believe you can check it out. Gotta come out.”
Qiu Zongjie frowned deeply and recalled carefully: "I just told you about the Eye of Ten Thousand Demons yesterday. Although Liu Tuo, Ma Feiteng and Jiang Lanjing did not come, it could not be any one of them. The other two Only the elders and monks from Leiyue Temple are left..."
Qiu Zongjie suddenly stopped. The two looked at each other and said at the same time: "It's a monk!"
Zhuge Yun smiled slightly and said: "It turns out that he is a monk, which makes sense! No wonder there is a spiritual energy coming out, that is the spiritual energy of the cultivator!"
Qiu Zongjie was puzzled and said: "Lei Yue Temple is the leader of the upright martial arts sect! How could he do such a despicable thing? How is this possible?"
Zhuge Yun smiled and said: "Knowing people but not knowing their hearts, a monk can run away but cannot run away from the temple! As long as we go to Leiyue Temple and see which monk has recently broken his left arm, the truth will naturally be revealed, but how to prevent the official from intervening in this matter? Well, this is the real headache!"
Qiu Zongjie raised his eyes and looked at the water in the distance, shook his head gently and said: "It is impossible to hide this matter anymore. If not, we will become the target of some evil masters with ulterior motives. If this is the case, then we will never have peace. I think it is better to go to my 'Taoyuan Residence' to escape the limelight for a while. With the 'Peach Blossom Seven Star Array', I can save a lot of trouble!"
Zhuge Yun raised his sword eyebrows: "Senior brother, you can avoid it for a while, but you can't avoid it forever. In my opinion, it is better to do the opposite. Simply spread the word and change the target."
Shen Dai, who was waiting on the side, took the opportunity to say: "Lord! Let your subordinates handle the matter of spreading rumors. Make sure that Leiyue Temple is more lively than the market. This is my specialty, hehe!"
Before Zhuge Yun could say anything, Wu Qiang rode over and said, "Everyone! The fog has dissipated. It's a nice day today. Ten miles upstream along the river is the Guo family ancestral hall. After the little lord pays homage, we will return to sail. That... …
Wu Qiang lowered his voice and said with a smile on his face: "Please bear with me about what happened last night, and don't go out yelling!"
Zhuge Yun smiled slightly: "That's easy to say!"
Everyone rode on horseback, accompanied by five hundred soldiers, and the procession marched up the river in a mighty manner.
The Guo family ancestral hall occupies an area of ten acres, facing water on three sides. It is built against the mountain and surrounded by stone walls. It is a Liuheyuan building. Entering the ancestral hall and walking up the stone steps for 300 steps is the ancestral tomb, which is very impressive.
The tomb was guarded by five old eunuchs named Guo, who were Guo Xuanwu's grandfathers according to their seniority. However, when the five of them met Guo Xuanwu, they all slanted their shoulders and flattered them, just like their grandsons.
Arriving at the ancestral tomb, Qiu Zongjie walked back and forth with a compass in his hand, saying as he walked: "This blessed land must have been guided by an expert! The Xiangshu said: Water surrounds the mountain and houses many houses, and officials have been close to the emperor for generations. The mountain embraces the aura of water. Tibet, men and women left their hometown and went to foreign countries. This place is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the terrain is unique. It is a treasure cave of "the toad contains the moon". It has the potential to swallow up the mountains and rivers. The remains of the ancestors are buried here, which can provide good luck for future generations for hundreds of years. No wonder it came out. If you marry Guo Bin, you will be so powerful and wealthy that you can rival the country!"
Before Zhuge Yun spoke, Shen Dai walked up to Qiu Zongjie in two steps and whispered: "Master Qiu, while the five old eunuchs guarding the tomb are currently serving Guo Xuanwu in the backyard ancestral hall, can you break this castrated dog?" Guo Bin’s ancestral tomb treasure cave?”
Qiu Zongjie was stunned and blurted out: "You can't do this kind of immoral thing! It will shorten the longevity of the magician. Besides, this treasure cave has entered the period of decline. It only has about ten years of luck left. Sooner or later, it will turn bad." "
