372 Rumors
After three days on the sea, Bai Xiaosheng and his party got off the boat in Songjiang Mansion. What surprised the group was that as soon as they got off the boat, they saw a brigade of soldiers guarding the port, and the old man Yijianshuo stood not far away and looked at them.
"Grandpa Huang..." Mu Feng exclaimed, Huang Hai, Bai Xiaosheng, Dugu Wudi looked at each other, wondering how Huang Tiancheng knew that he was coming?
The three of them had seen this old senior one by one. Huang Tiancheng was quite generous. With a wave of his hand, the army contracted and guarded everyone to his mansion.
But the wonder is that Huang Tiancheng’s mansion at this time was not his home, but his place.
The guards here are extremely strict, and the soldiers in the brigade patrolled back and forth. As soon as the few people came in, they felt the atmosphere was in a sensation. This made the group even more strange. What was going on? Could something happened in Songjiang?
A general sat in the back hall of the yamen. When he saw Huang Tiancheng coming in, he immediately bowed and said, "Huang Hu has seen the general!"
Huang Tiancheng nodded, sat on the main seat, waved his hand and said, "Please sit down everyone."
Huang Hu sat on his hand, with a solemn expression, with a murderous aura on his face. Bai Xiaosheng and others looked at each other and sat down. Huang Tiancheng said: "You guys, you have been in the sea for three days, I don't know the recent changes. Huang Hu, tell everyone about the rumors in the past two days."
"Yes!" Huang Hu clasped his fists and said loudly: "Several people, three days ago, a rumor suddenly came from the north that the Jin Kingdom had left a big treasure outside the pass. The treasure not only contains wealth that is as rich as the country, but also many martial arts books. The clues about the treasure are hidden in the Nine-Curve Stone Beads." At this point, he paused and looked at Mu Feng. He said: "Miss Mu, please feel sorry for me."
Mu Feng was stunned, then his face changed drastically, and he said with a pretty face pale: "Uncle Huang, what do you mean?"
Huang Hu sighed, "The eldest brother of the Mu family is dead! The source of this rumor is the Mu family, and the Mu family has been destroyed. According to the news, the incident of you bringing Shi Zhunan has spread all over the world. This is also the reason why the old general blocked the wharf and waited for several people from the wharf."
"Impossible!" Mu Feng shook his body. Huang Yao immediately supported her and couldn't help but say, "Uncle Huang, is the news spread wrong?"
Huang Hu shook his head, his face looked like a pity. Mu Feng could no longer bear it, and was anxious and his face turned red, but he fainted.
"Come on!" Huang Hu shouted immediately, and the two soldiers came in and helped Mu Feng down. Huang Yao was worried and followed him.
Huang Hai said in a deep voice: "General Huang, has this rumor spread throughout the world in three days?"
Huang Hu nodded and said, "Not bad! There is a deception among them. It is inevitable. But we can't find out who is behind the scenes."
Huang Tiancheng took out the stone beads that Mu Feng gave him, played with them carefully and suddenly said, "Do you have any clues?"
Huang Hai shook his head and said, "I have seen this stone bead. Although there are nine curves inside, I can't find any clues about the treasure."
Huang Tiancheng nodded. He turned his hand and put away the stone beads, saying, "You guys are tired all the way, so I'll have a good rest. I'll talk about anything tomorrow."
Several people looked at each other and said, "It's time for you to be the old general!"
Under Huang Tiancheng's arrangement, several people lived in the government office. They first ate some food and went back to their room to rest. In the room, Bai Xiaosheng sat cross-legged on the bed, thinking about his recent experiences in his mind, and calculating possible situations.
As soon as a few people entered the sea, rumors about Shizhu flew all over the sky. There was no deception among them, who believed it?
"So, that stone bead may just be a bait..." Bai Xiaosheng frowned secretly, but couldn't figure out the key point for a while. After all, he didn't know much, and it was too unrealistic to string everything out of thin air.
In the middle of the night, there was a sound in the government office. Bai Xiaosheng heard the sound of weapons fighting, and then there was a shout. He did not move, but just listened, and the sound soon disappeared and everything returned to peace.
Early the next morning, Bai Xiaosheng was invited to have breakfast. When he arrived at the hall, he found that there were three more people here - three innate masters.
"Haha..." Huang Tiancheng smiled and pointed to the three extra people and introduced them to everyone: "Several people, let me introduce you to you. These three are people from our military system. They are not famous in the world, and they don't know many people. They are very famous in the army. The one on the left is the chief instructor of our Songjiang area, Wu Langqing; the one on the middle is the person photographed above, who is the head of the imperial guards in the middle of the Beijing Central Committee, Lin Xiang; the one on the right is very famous, and is known as Moyunshou..."
"camel……"
Dugu Wudi narrowed his eyes, and then Huang Tiancheng said two words.
Huang Tiancheng smiled slightly and said, "Yes, it's Moyun Hand Camel. He is famous in the world, but he is much worse than Dugu Wudi's nephew."
"Is that true?" Dugu Wudi couldn't refuse, staring straight at the Moyun Hand Camel.
The camel smiled at him and turned his head silently. The other two looked at him and stopped observing it. This made Dugu Wudi's aura cold and oppressed it so much.
When Huang Hai saw it, he immediately pulled Dugu Wudi and smiled and said, "It's a great honor to see three of you down to Huang Hai. I'll give you a cup..." He did it first and signaled slightly.
With his interruption, the atmosphere turned back. Huang Tiancheng laughed and said, "Okay! Everyone eat quickly, and we will set off when we finish eating."
The court touched three innate masters at once, and the veteran Huang Tiancheng, which showed his importance to this matter. Bai Xiaosheng was eating, his eyes swept across the people one by one, and he thought to himself.
Will this matter go smoothly?
He was unsure and always felt that things would not be so simple. Since the rumors had already arisen, it was impossible to suppress them anymore. I think there were already many people rushing outside the pass.
What exactly do those people do?
Could it be that they have the courage to keep all these people outside the pass?
Or do they want to provoke conflicts between the court and the grassland people outside the pass?
"Wait, maybe, they just want to direct everyone's attention out of the barrier..." Bai Xiaosheng thought of this possibility, but he was not very sure.
After breakfast, the group returned to the dock, boarded the boat from the dock, and headed straight for Tianjin Port.
On the boat, everyone naturally had nothing to do. When they were free, they would stay alone. They were having a lot of chatting, so they gathered together to talk about martial arts. This kind of life was a bit boring, but it was not slow.
It took about four days before the group got off the boat from Tianjin. However, another rumor made Huang Hai change color.
Two days ago, the Penglai faction reached a reconciliation with the Huanghai Gang. The two factions decided to re-arrange the sphere of influence and form an alliance to operate Shandong together, calm the chaos in Shandong and give everyone a stable environment.
This is a common declaration between the two factions, and it is a good thing for those who don’t understand it. After all, Shandong is in chaos and it is not easy for people living there. However, it is like being struck by lightning to the Yellow Sea.
He is the leader of the Huanghai Gang. Why is he not convinced of such a major matter?
Among them, there must be problems.
Hearing this common declaration, several people around Huang Hai were stunned. Huang Tiancheng frowned and said, "Nephew Huang, are you going back?"
Huang Hai's face turned pale. He didn't want to believe that this was true, but judging from the conversations of the people around him, it would definitely not be fake. Damn it! He cursed inwardly, and Huang Hai barely squeezed out a smile and said, "The old general is serious, so there is no hurry to do the Huang Hai Gang."
Bai Xiaosheng smiled silently, and Huang Tiancheng didn't say much.
If things are already a foregone conclusion, what can Huang Hai do when he goes back? Are he looking for death? So, his choice is very clear. This time, he obviously hugged Huang Tiancheng's thigh. As long as he succeeds, even if he loses the Huang Hai Gang, he still has a chance to make a comeback. But if he goes back alone, everything will be hard to say.
Everyone understands the choices very well! Huang Hai also has courage and made a decision almost instantly.
After passing Tianjin and entering the Beiping headquarters, Huang Tiancheng and Bai Xiaosheng and others separated. Huang Tiancheng wanted to lead the army. Although Bai Xiaosheng and others had made contributions, they were not from the court, so they naturally could not follow them. If they wanted to see it, they had to walk over it by themselves. Of course, they could not go.
But this time, everyone wants to see something.
"This Mr. Huang has reservations about us." Bai Xiaosheng sighed.
Huang Hai and Dugu Wudi did not respond, but Wang Wu said: "Why did senior say that?"
"The secret of the stone bead." Bai Xiaosheng said: "The stone bead is related to the treasure, but where is the treasure? Can it be summarized in one sentence? The old man came here to mobilize troops, obviously he already knew the approximate location of the treasure, but we didn't know." Speaking of this, he looked at Huang Hai and said: "Master Huang Gang, are you really not going back to Yantai?"
Huang Hai shook his head with an ugly face. Bai Xiaosheng was bored and stopped talking. The group walked north in silence. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
