This old man in linen clothes had kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and a kind smile on his face. As soon as he entered the store, he glanced back and forth at everyone, only to hear him clear his throat and say: "Three copper coins can calculate the heavens and the earth, and judge the world with a smile, and you will have a bright future."
He stood there, twirling his long beard with his hands, looking like an outsider. But after waiting for a while, he saw that no one in the store responded, and he felt a little embarrassed for a while.
However, after coughing twice, he still walked to the table of the strong man with a chain and sledgehammer hanging from his waist, and said with a smile: "From a distance, I saw the noble man's brows are shining, the sky is plump, and he is the master of the great blessings of the universe. However, there is a hint of ominousness.
Purple energy looms in the heavens, and the light of help spreads across the jade sea. You might as well give me the horoscope, and I will be a noble person and take a few guesses."
The strong man laughed, reached out and tore off a chicken leg from the table, put it in his mouth and chewed it while saying: "Life and death are determined by fate, what's the difference between prediction and accident?"
"No!" The old man in sackcloth shook his head and said: "God has the virtue of good life, and the way of heaven is to escape one of them. Life may not be without a turning point. Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune is divination."
"Hahaha!" Suddenly a burst of laughter came from the table next to him. The old man in sackcloth turned his head and saw that the person laughing was a down-and-out scholar.
I just heard the writing student laughing and saying: "What a lazy old man, come on, come on, the scholar believes in you, you can do a fortune teller for me!"
The old man in sackcloth nodded, walked to Luo Bisheng's table, and said, "Please also take a look at the guest officer's palm."
Shubisheng stretched out his left hand and said: "If you want to see it, you can see it, but you have to tell me first. If you are not sure, I won't pay you!"
"That's natural!" The old man in sackcloth nodded, narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked up and down on his hand.
After a while, the old man twirled his beard and sighed softly: "It's a pity, it's a pity that you have ordered the criminal to chase the horse at your expense."
The writing student was slightly startled and asked in confusion: "What does it mean to chase a horse while carrying money behind your back?"
The old man in sackcloth glanced at him, and then said unhurriedly: "Those who bear salary, if they take Xin as their official salary, if they are Jin Jue, they will have no official, and if their official star is in a dead place, they will have no salary."
Then he shook his head and chanted: "A belly full of articles is of no use, a body full of martial arts is not enough to satisfy hunger, a man is always aiming for the sky, and he is anxious because of bad luck!"
"fart!"
The writing student slapped his hand on the table and gave him a fierce look. He was originally a scholar. He was obsessed with fame in his early years, but failed many times. Later, he became discouraged and became a martial arts teacher. However, he became a master of martial arts.
Quite talented.
Obtaining academic honors has always been a worry for him. Even though he knew that the old fortune teller was right, he still couldn't help but arouse anger in his heart.
Luo Bisheng flicked his sleeve towards him, and the old man immediately turned somersault on the spot and rolled three times on the ground before he got up shakily.
He swept the dust off his body and said to himself: "It's hard to carve out of rotten wood, it's hard to carve out of rotten wood."
The old man shook his head as he spoke, then looked at Liang Yan's table, walked over with a smile and said, "You two friends are destined to meet each other, so why not take a life test? If the calculation is not accurate, I won't take any money from you!"
Liang Yan shrugged and stretched out his left hand nonchalantly. The old man nodded, put his hand on Liang Yan's left hand, and narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was calculating.
However, Liang Yan knew that the old man was testing his own cultivation. He sneered in his heart and secretly activated the Tianji Pearl to fluctuate his own cultivation. There was nothing hidden. In addition to the fact that his energy and blood were stronger than ordinary people, it could be seen that
Apart from being a warrior, he is no different from ordinary mortals.
The old man in sackcloth silently searched for a while and found nothing out of the ordinary, so he nodded and said with a smile: "A bird cannot be free when it is in a cage. It is difficult to get ahead if you are destined to have this hexagram. If you fail to get your hopes and wealth, you will be worried about right and wrong!"
"Bah, bah, bah!" Before Liang Yan could speak, Tang Diexian had already said: "The old man is not strong enough and only knows nonsense. If you are really capable, why don't you give yourself a hexagram test and let me figure it out later?"
Should I hit you?"
The old man in sackcloth hurriedly smiled and said: "No, no, no! Old man, my old arms and legs can't stand your torment. I calculated this hexagram randomly. I am lucky and have a great destiny. I will have noble people to help me."
Tang Diexian said angrily: "You know the truth!"
The old man stared at Tang Diexian for a while and found that there was no fluctuation in spiritual power. He was secretly relieved. So holding the bamboo pole in his right hand and his left hand behind his back, he returned to his fairy-like appearance and walked out of the inn.
Liang Yan looked at the old man's back and thought to himself: "This old man's aura is weak. I saw that strange jade pendant on him just now. He must be from the same group. But do they know that the sect has sent someone to investigate? By the way, yesterday
As soon as Wanlu Pao Ke died, I'm afraid they have become alert, and it seems they need to be more careful in the future."
Liang Yan and Tang Diexian returned to the room, discussed for a while, and decided that Tang Diexian would go out to inquire about the martial arts masters placed by the sect in Yongle Town, while Liang Yan would be responsible for investigating the details of Chen Zhuoan.
That night, in a remote forest outside Yongle Town.
The two figures stood opposite each other, and the moonlight shone on their faces. They were clearly Chen Zhuoan and Min Rou. And behind a tree not far from them, there was a young man in black hiding, following them.
Liang Yan.
"Are they reliable?" The questioner was Chen Zhuoan.
"Yue Da has been with me for many years and has been loyal, so there won't be any problems." Min Rou replied: "As for Tang Er, he was a man I recruited in the town a year ago. He is ill and has limited mobility, so he should not be able to
What's the problem? Besides, he didn't even let him know anything about us."
Chen Zhuo'an nodded with satisfaction. He looked at Min Rou. The moonlight shone on her face. Although she was still charming, some wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were faintly visible. He couldn't help but sigh and said: "Min Rou, you have suffered a lot these years."
, I thought you were a golden girl and a rich lady back then, but now "
Min Rou hurriedly reached out to cover his mouth and said softly: "Zhuo An, there's no need to say more, it's all of my own free will." Then a dim light flashed in her eyes, and she continued: "What happened to Sister Xiu'er back then, I
I couldn't help, and I feel very guilty about it. You and Sister Xiu'er are a couple of gods, but it's a pity that they didn't make it to the end."
When Chen Zhuo'an heard her mention the past, he couldn't help but show a hint of desolation in his expression. He was not a fool. Min Rou voluntarily gave up her identity as the daughter of the Minister of Household Affairs, and she had silently paid for him over the years. Of course he knew Min Rou's love. It was just that he
There has always been a hurdle in his heart. He was ashamed of facing Xiu'er back then, which made him unable to face Min Rou now.
The two were silent for a while, and Chen Zhuoan took the lead and said: "Nowadays, Li Hong's gangsters are in power. Although your father regards us as bandits, he has not collaborated with Li Hong. As time goes by, he is afraid that he will be harmed by Li's gangsters again."
.”
A trace of worry flashed across Min Rou's face, "My father is too rigid. He thinks that the organizations in the world are treacherous. If he is willing to cooperate with us, he will have a better chance of winning. Now I just hope that God will bless him."
, Mr. Li, please don’t attack my father too quickly.”
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the forest and said:
"That's not the case! Li Hong still has many political opponents to deal with. He just killed General Zhang two years ago and was involved in the 'fake imperial edict'. The matter has not been settled yet. I don't think he is in a hurry to deal with your father now.
of."
"The pen-writing student!" Chen Zhuoan turned around and saw that the person coming was the down-and-out scholar who was in the shop before.
"Haha, what the fake scholar said is not bad!" Someone else in the forest said: "Li Hong, the dog thief, dared to fake the imperial edict and killed General Zhang. This blood debt must be paid with his own blood!"
As he said this, the two people walked out side by side from the forest. It was Fatty Officer Wai and Hua Shiniang who had come to the store during the day.
"Wang Bin, Hua Shiniang, you are here too." Chen Zhuoan said with a smile, "It seems that the only ones left now are Chu Laosan and Xu Fangke."
"Hmph! How could I, Chu, be late for the 'Hoeing the Rape Club' gathering?" As soon as he finished speaking, two people walked out of the forest. They were the strong man and the eagle-nosed man who had hung a hammer on their waist in the store before. Just listen to the strong man
Han continued: "Chu refused to give in one day. He has admired General Zhang as a hero all his life. His grandmother's bear, Li Hong, couldn't fight with him. He actually falsely passed on the imperial edict and forced General Zhang to death. It was so shameless!
"
The eagle-nosed man named Xu Fangke also shook his head and said: "If you want me to die, I have to die. It's a pity that General Zhang, a proud man, ended up like this."
When Chen Zhuoan saw everyone gathered, he cleared his throat and said loudly: "We will avenge General Zhang's blood feud. That Li Hong forged the imperial edict was a major crime that deceived the emperor and implicated the nine clans. Although he, except General Zhang,
He also laid the foundation for his own trouble. Two years ago, Master Tang Tiannan sent his disciples to die and stole the false imperial edict. Although he was chased by Li Thief, the disciples defended him to the death and allowed Master Tang to escape, but he was seriously injured.
There has been no news in the past two years, and the matter of the imperial edict has been ignored. However, we later found out through investigation that he had fled to Yongle Town. Mr. Tang was devoted to serving the country, and he would hide the false imperial edict even if he died. We'
The purpose of this trip of the Anti-Japanese Association is to find out this fake imperial edict and submit it to the court so as to bring down Thief Li!"
After hearing this, everyone nodded. Only Luobi Sheng frowned and said, "It's just that Yongle Town is so big that fake edicts can be hidden anywhere. We only have a few people, so how can we find the fake edicts."
Chen Zhuoan smiled slightly and said: "I have already known about this matter. At that time, Mr. Tang claimed to have three thousand followers, and secretly organized an underground force to resist Li Hong. There was an underground stronghold for him in Yongle Town. I believe Mr. Tang was in danger when he was in danger.
, most likely to hide this false edict in the underground stronghold here."
After Chen Zhuoan finished speaking, he looked at Hua Shiniang. Hua Shiniang smiled brightly and said, "Fortunately, my little lady, you have lived up to your fate and successfully obtained the map of this underground stronghold."
Everyone suddenly understood, Luo Bisheng nodded and said with a smile: "In this way, we are 90% sure, so what are we waiting for? Why don't we go find out now?"
Chen Zhuoan waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, as far as I know, Li Hong has also obtained the information and has already sent Xiang Anran, one of his four great kings, to lurk in the town. There are many eyes and ears in the town. If we act rashly,
It’s easy to be left behind by them.”
Everyone asked: "Then when will we take action?"
Chen Zhuo'an said: "I have issued the assembly order long ago. Now, the fifth of the eight hall leaders of our 'Peeling Traitors Association' has arrived, and the remaining three hall leaders will also arrive soon. Li Hong's capable men are scattered all over the place, dispatching troops.
It will take some time, and when the eight of us gather together, it will be the time to take the false edict!"
