Chapter 125 Pusi’s scheming

There is no man in the world who is always willing to be the slave of others.

Even Pushi is no exception.

Although he was beaten by the Plague Ghost today and was frightened by the powerful and terrifying fighting power of the Ghost Slave, it still cannot change the fact that he is essentially a rebel. This has happened since he dared to kill his father for rights.

It can be seen.

"Damn it! These ghosts have never trusted me from the beginning!" Pushi returned to his room, his flattering smile immediately turned into ferocious anger.

After the plague ghost came to Wanzihe Town, he had his power taken away. Now, in addition to commanding the people in the mayor's mansion, he can be regarded as a bare commander.

The thought of the plagued ghost holding a knife to his neck made him feel even more uneasy.

Just when he was getting angry, there was a knock on the door of the room: "Mayor, your dinner has been brought to you."

Originally, Pusi was about to scold him, but when he heard that he was bringing dinner to him, he temporarily calmed down his anger: "Come in."

The door was pushed open, and a young man in green clothes and a cap walked in holding an exquisite dinner: "Mayor, my uncle saw that the dinner was overturned by the plague ghost, and knew that you must not have eaten.

So I was sent to give you a separate copy."

Pusi glanced at the young man and nodded. The uncle he mentioned was the third housekeeper of his house. He usually managed the affairs of the outer courtyard and was a loyal and honest man.

Seeing the food being served on the table, Pushi felt a sense of emotion in his heart. He looked at the young man and said casually: "Why don't you two uncles and nephews please go and curry favor with the plagued ghost? He wants money, and he wants money."

No matter how powerful you are, as the mayor of the town, I have to act based on the color of others."

The young man smiled and filled Pushi's wine glass: "Look what you said, you are the iron-clad mayor. He will only come once a year if he suffers from the plague. Once he leaves, Wanzihe Town will not be yours."

Tianxia? Hey, my uncle said that since you were suppressed this time, you will definitely consolidate the power of Wanzihe Town in the future, and you can’t always live a life of dependence on others."

After hearing this, Pu Si immediately slammed the table and said in feigned anger: "When will it be your servants' turn to comment on what I want to do?"

The young man immediately bowed his waist to apologize and stepped forward to give Pu Si a pat on the back and shoulders: "Yes, yes, I don't have any knowledge. I'm talking nonsense. Mayor, please don't be as knowledgeable as I am. I'm so angry."

But it’s not good.”

Pusi moved his chopsticks and felt the tapping on his back was very comfortable, so he stopped pretending to be angry and said casually again: "Well, that makes sense. By the way, what is your name?"

With?"

"The younger one's name is Gao Shi, and your third housekeeper Gao Jin is my uncle," Gao Shi replied with a smile.

Pusi nodded and took a mouthful of food: "You were brought to the house by your uncle three days ago. Your accent is from Hexi. Did you live in Hexi before?"

Gao Shi hurriedly said: "Mr. Mayor Mingjian, I do have a Hexi accent. I used to do a lot of work in Hexi, such as a restaurant clerk, a housekeeper, a nurse, and a freighter. Anyway, they were all hard jobs.

Now that I can work in your house, Lord Mayor, I am really a blessing that I have cultivated in time."

After speaking, Gao Shi diligently brought the fruit plate to the table: "Today's dishes are all what you like to eat, but they are too oily and can easily cause internal heat. Please eat more fruits."

A smile gradually appeared on Pusi's face: "It would be great if this house were all people like your uncle and nephew. Come on, Gao Shi, stop being so busy. I have something to ask you."

Gao Shi was overjoyed. He knew that after laying the groundwork for so long, Pusi finally asked, "Mayor Mayor, if you ask, I will answer everything you know."

"Nothing, I just want to ask, you have been in Hexi for so long, do you know the story of Hexi's Smoke?" Pushi took a sip of wine, "Don't say anything that everyone knows, you have done so many businesses, so many

You must have been exposed to cigarettes for a while, tell me your own feelings."

"A burst of smoke?" Gao Shi immediately acted very scared, "A burst of smoke came to Beiting? How could they come to Beiting?"

Seeing Gao Shi's appearance, Pushi smiled faintly: "Don't worry, our Wanzihe town is still very safe. If the sky falls, there will be someone tall to hold it up. You don't know what the plague ghost is doing here.

Is it? I just want to collect a burst of smoke! You say what you want, don’t be afraid."

It took Gao Shi a while to recover. It seemed that the burst of smoke had indeed left a very deep impression on his past life.

"A burst of smoke, burning, killing, looting, and all kinds of evil are committed. There is no one in Hexi who doesn't want to eat its meat!" Gao Shi said through gritted teeth, "I once followed a man to make a living near Jinzhou, but I encountered a group of people before I got halfway there.

Smoke, they robbed all our goods, and burned our leader alive, and then...then they started to hold some kind of ceremony with a bonfire lit by the corpse, and then started to celebrate carnival."

Pushi watched the pale-faced Gao Shi finish telling his experience intermittently, and then focused on the words "some kind of ritual". He asked: "What ritual? Do they still have any beliefs?"

?”

Gao Shi nodded and shook his head: "It's the leader of a burst of smoke. Their leader believes in Zoroastrianism. After every robbery, he will repent in front of the bonfire, saying that he is a poor abandoned believer, although he is not qualified to continue to be worshiped by the Holy Fire.

He shines, but he is still loyal to the church. As for his men, they are a mixture of barbarians and Han people. It is not said that they all believe in Zoroastrianism, but they will also participate in the ceremony. After all, there are many celebrations in the ceremony, and they will not do anything.

Hesitantly share the looted wine, food, and beauties during the ceremony."

"Boy, did you witness the ceremony they held with your own eyes? How did you escape from their hands?" Pu Si frowned slightly, "Don't tell me that they let you go out of mercy."

"Mayor Ming Jian, the mayor, my little one almost had the sky lanterns lit at that time, but it just happened that when they were holding the ceremony, a border army from Daxia came over and killed them. No matter how ferocious the smoke was, they didn't dare to confront the border army head-on.

Ah," Gao Shi explained quickly.

Pu Si nodded, then drank all the wine in the glass and smiled: "Boy, you are indeed a lucky guy. Come on, fill it up again."

Gao Shi nodded and bowed and poured wine for Pushi again: "It is true that not many people know about Bu Yan's habit of doing fire worship rituals after looting, because most of the people who have seen it have been killed, but this is a common practice in Daxia.

It’s not a secret on the military side. You are the mayor of Wanzihe Town. You can find out about anything. The officers and soldiers of the border military camps at the junction of Hexi and Hebeiting are often exchanged."

"Of course I believe you, don't be so nervous," Pushi glanced at Gao Shi. He knew that Gao Shi was worried, so he asked himself to inquire in detail to confirm what he said, "Okay, you go down first.

Come on, I'll be alone for a while."

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Gao Shi stopped talking. He immediately smiled flatteringly and retreated.

Pusi drank wine and ate food, and his mood gradually improved. He really didn't expect that the servants he recruited at will would bring him such important information. With this information, he could stand in front of the plagued ghost.

Straighten your back, as for where did this information come from?
