"Dang, dang, dang... the new emperor ascends the throne, and the world is in good health. In the middle of the night, be careful of the candle!"
There was a sound of a wake-up call coming from outside the door.
A whole day has passed since Xiang Gongbao ascended the throne.
In front of the houses of several officials in the capital, a piece of white cloth is posted, which means there is a funeral in the family.
It was just that when the new emperor ascended the throne, it was inconvenient to hold a funeral, so we could only put up a piece of white cloth.
As Xu Tong thought, Xiang Gongbao was in very bad health since he ascended the throne. According to Ma Qi, Xiang Gongbao had a high fever that night and almost didn't wake up.
Fortunately, several doctors at Tai Hospital managed to save Xiang Gongbao's life with their wonderful rejuvenation skills. Is it just because of his condition... he should be able to survive until autumn.
"Boss, when are we going back? I'm a little homesick." Gao Zhuo found himself a black cloth and made a veil, covering the top of his head.
After completing the mission, they can stay in the script world for 10 days
Since becoming a corpse, my face has become paler, and I seem to have some sequelae, that is, I always have a bloodthirsty impulse. I plan to think of a solution when I go back and see if there is any corresponding solution in the ancient books at home.
Of course, in addition to being homesick, he also wanted to eat fried bacon...
"Why are you so anxious? You have been waiting for so many days. Why are you still worrying about it for a while? Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. You may not be able to handle Taoist Xunlong's physical body."
Xu Tong picked up a piece of pastry on the table and stuffed it into his mouth.
When leaving, Xu Tong saw that this guy ran straight towards Taoist Xunlong's body. The guy's expression at that time was as if Taoist Xunlong's body was closer to him than his wife.
It's just that Taoist Xunlong has lost his soul, but his physical body has not died, and he still maintains the normal breathing of a living person.
Coupled with the talisman that Taoist Xunlong had given to the physical body, Xu Tong doubted whether Gao Zhuo could handle it.
"Hehe, this is not difficult. You can't defeat a living person. I can't defeat an immortal."
When Gao Zhuo was told the central issue, he couldn't help but pat his chest and reassure Xu Tong. After saying that, he remembered something again: "By the way, what do you do with Wu Guodong? Do you want me to give him to him now..."
Gao Zhuo waved his hand and made a decapitation gesture. After turning into a corpse, he was equal to a half-step master. It was more than enough to kill a cripple.
He blushed when he said it. Originally, he let go of his scruples and transformed into a corpse with all his strength. After killing the eldest princess's little sister, he rounded up all the eldest princess's zombies.
I was originally going to rush out to help Xu Tong, but who would have thought that as soon as I went out, it would be dawn.
Then I heard a strange sound of gongs, and they actually slipped into the ranks of the Ming army and became a guard of honor. I felt that not only did I not help, but I was also doing a disservice. There was really something on my face.
Can't hang on anymore.
Xu Tong just grinned at this and had no intention of blaming Gao Zhuo. If he hadn't clung to Fa Cai at the last moment, Taoist Xunlong might have escaped first.
"No need, I promised Wang Zheng to come."
Before Wang Zheng left, he told Xu Tong that his last mission was to kill Ma Qi.
The person who issued this task was his master Wu Guodong.
Speaking of which, during the martial arts test, Wu Guodong and Ma Qi made an appointment, whoever wins will marry the grandma.
As a result, Wu Guodong won the top prize, so Ma Qi played a trick and had someone break one of Wu Guodong's legs while Wu Guodong was drunk.
From then on, Wu Zhuangyuan became an inconspicuous old carpenter and completely disappeared from people's sight.
Wu Guodong has been waiting for this hatred for so many years, but it is not that easy to let go.
Wang Zheng was also unlucky. He had two opportunities to make a move, but he didn't have time.
Until his bones were broken by a slap from Taoist Xunlong, there was no hope at all. Otherwise, with Wang Zheng's strength, if he wanted to complete the mission, Xu Tong would definitely not be able to guard against him.
"All right."
Gao Zhuo nodded to express his understanding, then picked up a piece of snack and stuffed it into his mouth. He lay down on the chair with his head in his hands and said, "Okay, it's okay to be idle. I'll go to Panjiayuan tomorrow for a walk. I'll take it for granted."
Traveling."
Speaking of this, Gao Zhuo couldn't help but laugh at himself. He had never been to the capital since he was a child. This time, he had been in the capital for so long and visited the imperial palace. In the end, he had never even entered the gate of Panjiayuan. It was time to relax.
.
"Okay, let's go together."
I really need to go out, because the drunkard said last time that he was still waiting for me in the pub for two days. Counting the time, it would be tomorrow night at the latest.
I don’t know what opportunities this drunkard will give me.
After the two chatted for a while, Gao Zhuo went to wash up and rest, while Xu Tong continued to sit in the yard and wait.
"Got to go?"
After a while, a voice came from behind Xu Tong, it was Mr. Wenyuan.
I saw the old gentleman sitting in the same seat to the side, with a broken arm, but he was in particularly good spirits, and his face even had a golden light.
This is the kind of performance only a righteous god would have.
It turned out that he left in a hurry that day, but Xu Tong still did not forget to write down a written imperial edict on Xiang Gongbao's dragon table.
The content is similar to the one for sealing Taoist Xunlong, but the character he sealed was changed to Mr. Fuxian Wenyuan.
When Xiang Gongbao woke up in a daze, he felt as if he had had a big dream. In the dream, he seemed to have enshrined some god, but he couldn't remember clearly.
When I looked at it again, I found that the imperial edict had been written, and I wanted to throw it away first, but then I thought about it and remembered that Fu Xian, a newly emerging god, seemed to have a good reputation. Since it was all written, it was logical.
Send it out.
It happened to be a way to accumulate some merit for him.
As a result, Mr. Wenyuan, who received the title, suddenly changed from a house god to a sun god.
This can be regarded as Xu Tong's little repayment to his old man.
It's just that even if he becomes the Yang God, the lost arm cannot be found back, so from now on, the statues in Fuxian Temple in Beijing will be missing an arm.
"Yes, I'm leaving. My father has already said that he will take my mother with him to Wuxi to take up a post in two days."
Ma Qi was transferred to Wuxi to serve as the prefect, and he was considered a high official in the border area. However, those who understood knew that he was promoted openly and secretly.
However, Ma Qi also knew that this was Xiang Gongbao's consideration of past feelings.
Coincidentally, he didn't want to stay in the capital, a place of right and wrong, so he planned to leave for Wuxi with his entire family and followers in two days.
However, when Mr. Wenyuan heard this, he put down the book in his hand and said, "That's not what I'm talking about. If you want to leave, you're not going to Wuxi."
Xu Tong was startled when he heard this.
Just listen to Mr. Wenyuan continue to say: "I didn't teach this kid Hongwen well. I didn't teach him strictly. I was lazy as a teacher. I, an old man, have taught him for so long, but I didn't teach him how to be a human being."
Speaking of this, Mr. Wenyuan looked a little sad. As a scholar, he had been poor for ten years but failed to obtain meritorious service to serve the country and the people. As a teacher, the students he taught turned out to be scum who committed all kinds of evil, raped and plundered.
He unexpectedly became a God of Good Luck, which made Mr. Wenyuan lament whether God treated him well or God was really blind.
Xu Tong didn't speak, just ate the pastries on the table silently.
It seemed that the old gentleman had been aware of his identity for a long time, but he never revealed it. It was not until he was sure that he was leaving that he personally pierced the window paper.
"My child, as a human being I have been ashamed of my parents and as a teacher, but as a god I dare not let down the people again. I came today to say goodbye and to ask you something."
Xu Tong silently finished the cake in his mouth and waved his hand: "I understand what the old gentleman means, it's just like this empty fruit plate, right?"
Wenyuan glanced at the empty fruit plate and frowned: "That's not what I meant."
"It's all the same, that's what I mean. It's just that the mountains are high and the road is far away from now on. It's hard to see you again. Old gentleman, please take care of yourself."
Xu Tong stood up and said goodbye to Mr. Wenyuan.
Frankly speaking, this old gentleman treats me quite well. If it weren't for him, I don't know how long I would have to wait to complete the in-depth appraisal.
Seeing Xu Tong stand up and say goodbye, Mr. Wenyuan could only sigh. After bowing with both hands, his figure disappeared without a trace with a gust of breeze.
Early the next morning, Xu Tong took Gao Zhuo and Lerou out for shopping.
The three of them tasted Beijing's traditional breakfast again at the morning market.
Hmm... I still can't get used to it.
Then he followed Gao Zhuo to Panjiayuan, but to Gao Zhuo's disappointment, there were a few antique shops, but they were not like in reality. They were full of small stalls and all kinds of rare jewelry and the like.
This made Gao Zhuo feel that the journey was not satisfactory at all.
Xu Tong didn't care. He just gave Gao Zhuo some money and bought something casually. If he took it back, it would be an antique.
"That would be boring."
Gao Zhuo refused. In fact, money did not mean much to the two of them.
It’s not easy to find any antiques you really want. There are so many ghost markets. No matter if they are from the Shang and Zhou dynasties or from the last week, as long as you are willing to spend the money, they can be found for you.
After the three of them walked around, Xu Tong took them to the foreigner area.
It seems that because Xiang Gongbao has not officially issued any decent decrees since he ascended the throne, the foreigner area still maintains the prosperity of singing and dancing.
The largest church in the foreign area already has some outlines.
Anlitate was very happy about this. He only waited for the church to be completed before he could start preaching.
The Holy See has already brought him news that he needs to dedicate another ten years to the Holy See. He will be recalled after ten years. At that time, he will be inscribed on the position of the Twelve Cardinal Archbishops as he wishes.
name.
At this time, Anlitate suddenly noticed the commotion in the crowd. Looking back, he saw Xu Tong walking towards this direction.
Even though Xu Tong had done enough in front of Fu Xian to change his ways, when the people saw him, they still seemed to see a terrifying devil.
"Oh God, my dearest friend, it's such an honor to have you here."
This time, Anlitate suddenly changed his previous attitude towards Xu Tong, with an attentive smile on his face. He took the initiative to rush forward and gave Xu Tong a big bear hug.
Anlitate's enthusiasm made Xu Tong a little overwhelmed for a while, but he knew very well that the reason why Anlitate was so enthusiastic was probably because of his current reputation in the Holy See.
In this way, Xu Tong felt relieved, took Anlitat's arm and said: "Dear Bishop, I came here today to ask you to do me a favor."
