Chapter 118: Arranged in secret, I seem to have forgotten one thing
Yongcheng, City God Temple.
For the past day, Liang Du stayed at the Chenghuang Temple without going out.
Because he didn't know if the enhanced version of Zengfuxiang was too powerful, he picked up money as soon as he went out.
This time, even Fang Xiu and the old beggar looked at him as if they were a monster.
This is not the first time they have seen Liang Du pick up money.
If they had read Blue Star’s online novels, they would definitely say that Liang Du was the chosen one and that Purple Qi came three hundred miles from the east...
Fang Xiu also made a special fortune telling that he could still be lucky in the City God's Temple. Once he went out, I'm afraid, hehe...
So for the trouble of picking up money, he simply stayed at the Chenghuang Temple and never went out again.
He originally thought that if he stayed at the City God's Temple, Du Zhishan could teach him how to make incense. After all, the forty-eight incense of good and evil would only increase the incense of good fortune.
Who knows, Du Zhishan's attention is all on He Mei now, and he has no time to talk to him at all.
Chow Tai Fook came twice this day, but he came and went in a hurry. I don’t know what he said to Du Zhishan in private, but he looked excited anyway.
He still remembered Chow Tai Fook squatting next to the water tank, looking at the river charm with a yin and yang smile on his face.
If Chow Tai Fook knew that Liang Du planned him in this way, he would be so angry that he would vomit blood.
What is the yindang look? It is obviously a joy that is hidden in the dark.
No matter what, Liang Du had an extremely boring day.
Fortunately for Fang Xiu and the old beggar, they were arranged by Du Zhishan to continue to investigate the activities in Yong City, and they have not returned yet.
It's pretty boring to go on like this.
Liang Du was bored and wandered to the warehouse in the backyard of the City God's Temple, where he suddenly smiled evilly.
Because he saw a lot of materials for making incense.
He also only knew the ingredients for Zengfu Incense, so after Liang Du carefully selected them, he packed a lot of them and prepared to go home to make incense.
This time, I must not let Du Zhishan and Chow Tai Fook plunder all the money, but at least keep some for myself.
If he wanted to have such a result, he could only secretly go home and make incense.
Before leaving, he put all the money he had picked up on the floor of the warehouse with a smirk on his face.
This means taking it from the people and using it for the people.
I am simply too clever.
Liang Du came out of the warehouse in the backyard of the City God's Temple and felt a little guilty, so he sent a message to Du Zhishan.
"I'm leaving."
In an instant, Liang Du took off into the air and disappeared.
But Du Zhishan didn't have time to pay attention to him.
He and Chow Tai Fook now soaked the incense ashes from the recent people at the Chenghuang Temple in water, drained them into clean water, and added them to He Mei's water tank.
The two of them were having a great time doing it, and they were in high spirits, as if they had found a huge advantage.
.......
Crow Yi Lane.
After Liang Du returned to his house, he was dumbfounded as soon as he entered the courtyard.
He looked back and forth several times and finally confirmed that this was his house.
But what about the locust tree?
Where was the locust tree in the yard yesterday?
Liang Du took another look at Chow Tai Fook's yard, which was also empty, with the locust tree missing.
Could it be that there are some horse thieves who have taken a fancy to these two locust trees?
But it's impossible.
Who would be so stupid as to use locust trees to make furniture?
It's not easy to make firewood either.
The more Liang Du thought about it, the more he couldn't figure out why. How could the locust tree be chopped down?
Just at this time, Fang Xiu led a group of Cao Gang members to pass by on patrol.
Fang Xiu was walking on the road when suddenly a huge force surged from his body. Before he could react, he was caught next to Liang Du.
This shocked everyone in Caobang, and they immediately became a mess.
Fortunately, Fang Xiu found out that Liang Du had arrested him, and quickly sent a message to the Caobang people saying that he was fine.
This eliminated the panic of the Caobang gang, and then they continued to inspect Yongcheng under Fang Xiu's order.
There are more and more roughnecks in the city these days. Although they are restrained by the old beggar, there are still fights from time to time.
After all, these Jianghu people are all bloody men. How could they not come here a few times? What are you looking at?
"Brother Liang, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing Liang Du's bad expression, Fang Xiu asked cautiously.
"You have been patrolling from last night to today, and you haven't found anything unusual?"
Fang Xiu shook his head when he heard this question.
"No."
"Then look, what's different about me here?"
Fang Xiu turned around, stared at Liang Du, and said:
"Brother Liang, you are still handsome and extraordinarily handsome, even more dashing than yesterday."
Liang Du looked at the shameless Fang Xiu and was quite speechless.
However, seeing that he always tells the truth, I don't care about him anymore.
"Didn't you see that the locust tree in my yard is gone?
When such a big tree disappears, you patrolling the city didn’t notice it?”
Who would pay attention to this when patrolling?
Of course Fang Xiu would not ask such a question, after all, this is a real thigh, and he really knows the reason.
"Ah? Brother Liang, is this what you're talking about? Didn't Zhou Xingshou tell you?"
"Zhou Xingshou? What does this have to do with him? Could it be that he cut down the locust tree?"
Fang Xiu nodded.
"yes."
When Liang Du heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned. Is it really him?
But why does Chow Tai Fook cut down trees?
"Didn't he discuss it with you?"
Fang Xiu couldn't help but confirm again, because Chow Tai Fook didn't seem to be such an unconventional person.
Did he really just cut down the tree without telling Liang Du?
"Okay, then you go and do your work first."
When Liang Du said this, he felt a little weak.
Fang Xiu glanced at Liang Du strangely for a few times, and after confirming again and again that he was fine, he said goodbye and left.
Liang Du stayed in the yard and doubted his life. What was the critical situation that made Chow Tai Fook cut down the tree directly and he forgot to tell himself?
However, since I had just returned with so many raw materials, wouldn't it be a trap for me to go back to the City God's Temple to look for him now?
Since Chow Tai Fook cut down the tree, Liang Du had nothing to say.
After all, this was the tree planted by Chow Tai Fook. What else could he do about it?
Liang Du had no choice but to enter the house. In frustration, he used a little force to close the door.
"Boom."
I saw a sudden drop of silver falling from the roof beam.
Is it over yet?
Liang Du collapsed a little when he saw the silver.
He put down the materials and lay directly on the bed, wanting to calm down.
After all, to make incense, you must first meditate.
.......
Yongcheng, suburbs.
This time, the cow came out slowly and refused.
There is also a skeleton crawling out of the ground.
Crows and leather puppets, and smelly mummies.
The only thing missing is the sedan and the girl in red.
Lao Niu's eyes were a little erratic, and the others were also silent.
Could something have happened to this woman?
Fortunately, not long after, a woman in red came over on a donkey, and the five of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Where's your sedan? Why don't you show off?"
The mummy couldn't help but laugh at the woman in red, but he didn't expect that the woman in red was not angry.
Instead, she said: "I am not the female paper maker last time, I am the master's backup paper maker.
She's been in trouble and completely disappeared."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere immediately became solemn.
"What's going on?"
After the woman in red finished speaking, the leather puppet sneered.
"Your master discovered the river charm and didn't even tell us?
It's better now. Not to mention He Mei's disappearance, your master also lost a night traveler who made paper, and he deserved it."
When the female paper-maker in red heard this, she couldn't help but want to refute.
At this time, Lao Niu suddenly spoke.
"Okay, stop talking about this.
Hong Gu's original paper-making person was not simple. Since Hong Gu didn't even have time to save her, then the opponent should be a Japanese traveler.
By the way, where are the three Japanese envoys from Daxia Dynasty now?"
"I met with Chen Shizhong, Secretary of the Night Town, in Yongning Mansion a few days ago. According to the itinerary, we should be arriving in Yongcheng soon."
"Well, it seems that Hong Gu's paper-making man was unlucky and met those guys.
However, the river charm is a bit tricky, I hope it won’t affect our ability to seize the secret land.”
"It's too early to say this now, after all, no one knows the situation in the secret place.
Logically speaking, now that it has been so long since the vision of heaven and earth, there should be some clues about the entrance to the secret place.
But this time the secret place in Yongcheng really broke the rules, and I always have some bad premonitions in my heart."
The upper and lower bones of the skull opened and closed: "Okay, every time you say you have a bad premonition, but which time have you been right?
Do you think you are one of those liars?
You might as well get rid of the smell of your mummy, I feel uncomfortable every time I smell it."
"You are a skeleton now. Where did you get the sense of taste? Honggu's paper-cutting person didn't say anything. You just said nonsense."
"you……"
"Okay, stop arguing. Everyone has been more careful recently and tried to find out as much news as possible about the three traveling envoys from the Great Xia Dynasty.
Moreover, I think it is absolutely impossible for the Daxia Dynasty to send only three people down. I am afraid that they will divide their troops into two groups, one in the dark and one in the dark.
In short, everyone should be careful and don’t follow Hong Gu’s footsteps and waste the paper-pierced people by the Night Traveler.”
"Yes, there is no big mistake in being careful, but seeking no faults, not meritorious deeds.
When the reinforcements from above arrive, with our strength, we should be able to crush Yong City.
When the secret land is opened, don't hold anything back, this is our opportunity, and if we act together, we can also take revenge."
Nv Zhi Zharen's tone was full of resentment. After all, Hong Gu had lost a Zhi Zha Ren who was in the Night Traveler realm.
They may only have one or two clones or methods in the realm of night travelers, and most of them only have one, so they will naturally feel distressed.
After they reached a consensus, they separated.
Maybe it won't be long before Daxia's day traveler will show up.
After all, when the secret land is opened, there will be a lot of movement, and they must come out to maintain the overall situation.
And enemies on the surface are never scary.
.......
Yongjiang River, ferry.
At this moment, the ferry was unloading cargo, and a team of trackers were pulling the boat to the shore, sweating profusely.
But if anyone looks at them carefully, they will find two trackers among them, who are extremely relaxed.
"Did you notice anything unusual?"
"Not yet."
"Shen Datou and the other three haven't arrived in Yongcheng yet, and I don't know what they are doing."
"They are attracting the attention of the underworld in the open, but of course they have to be more careful.
Otherwise, when they came to Yongcheng in such a careless manner, they didn't tell the informants of the Yinsi openly that the people sent by the Daxia court this time might have hidden clues?"
"That's what you say, but they already arrived in Yongning Fucheng three days ago. It's too shameful that they haven't come yet."
"I don't think they don't want to come. Maybe that old guy Chen Shizhong has something to say and needs the three of them to cooperate with him."
"I hope so, otherwise if something goes wrong in the end, I will definitely sue them in court."
Just then, the supervisor came over.
"If you keep pushing harder, we'll reach the shore in no time."
A group of trackers shouted slogans in unison again and finally pulled the boat ashore.
And these two day travelers, who had been secretly stolen long ago, received their wages like ordinary trackers and grinned.
He hid in Yongjiang River to work as a tracker. First, it was because it was close to the City God's Temple. If the underworld wanted to do something, it would destroy the City God's Temple as soon as possible.
The second is that Yongning Prefecture has developed water transportation. The most likely source of information may come from river water transportation.
All in all, as long as the secret place does not appear, it is a good choice for them to use the identity of the tracker as a cover.
...
City God's Temple.
It's night now, and the blood month is rising.
"That guy Liang Du has gone back?"
"Going back."
"Okay, how is your statue doing now?"
"See for yourself."
In the Chenghuang Temple, there are two small statues of gods on top of the shrine.
There are only a few strokes on the face, but it is lifelike.
I don’t know why, but they have a little more charm than other statues.
"Yes, if the world is peaceful in the future, you can become a carpenter.
If this statue receives a little more incense, it will become more perfect."
"Haha, this is also due to Liang Du. After he moved here, the locust tree became more and more yin-y, which is why it has the current effect."
"yes."
Chow Tai Fook looked pleased.
Suddenly, his expression changed.
"not good."
"What's wrong?"
"I forgot to tell Liang Du that I had already cut down the tree."
