Before Old Man Gu and the others were incorporated into the special labor brigade, the fourth child was misunderstood as an ordinary beggar and sent to the riverside to dig sand. There were also several spirit monsters supervising the work on site, so the fourth child dug sand for two days before he looked down upon it.
He had no time to escape, and he was a little afraid to stay in the city. These days, he has been wandering around in secluded places outside the city, waiting for calls from his fellow disciples.
The sound of footsteps was heard from downstairs. The fourth child finally came up. He had changed from the usual beggar's clothes to the clothes of an ordinary traveler. After seeing the teacher and several senior brothers, his eyes filled with tears and he choked with sobs:
"Teacher...senior brother..."
The master and the apprentice met again and recounted their experiences in the past half month, each feeling sad and sighing. The fourth child remembered something and said: "Teacher, the lottery ticket I bought for the last round of the top ten games won a mysterious prize!"
Old Man Gu took out the dozen lottery tickets from his storage jade pendant and asked, "Which one is it?"
The fourth child took out a copy of "Junshan Notes" and compared it to find a note: "It's this note."
So the master and the disciples got together and started a heated discussion and analysis. After discussing for a while, Old Man Gu suddenly leaned back and said sadly: "After the redemption period, it's useless..."
The fourth child solemnly collected the lottery ticket and said, "Although it has expired, it is enough for me to keep as a souvenir."
Next, we discussed where to go. The boss suggested: "Teacher, let's go. We won't kill the troublesome Abbot Zhao. We can't kill this person!"
Old Man Gu glanced at several disciples one by one, and several disciples nodded with hope on their faces, hoping that Old Man Gu would give up this unrealistic idea.
So Old Man Gu said dejectedly: "Well, I didn't believe in God's blessing before, but now I have seen one. Let's not kill him and go to the East China Sea."
All the disciples cheered and raised their glasses to drink together.
The boss suggested that all Xiu'an be closed as soon as possible and Xiu'an be transferred to Shuangyu Island. Part of it would be used to pay off the island purchase debt, and part of it would be used as the basis for opening Xiu'an on Shuangyu Island. Everyone worked separately, with one person responsible for two provinces and striving for
It took three months to complete the matter.
The second brother asked if he could try to contact the Daolu Department. Now, except the fourth person, everyone has a practice certificate. They can try to apply to the Daolu Department to represent "Junshan Notes" and "Inside and Outside the Imperial City" overseas.
Publication of journals.
Both of these proposals were approved by Old Man Gu. Old Man Gu looked at the joyful scene of the disciples with joy, and couldn't help but feel a little absent-minded: How many years have passed since the day when these disciples were trained?
As an assassin and a killer, I have always been mentally prepared to abandon my son when it is time to abandon him. But now that my family has reached this point, it is these disciples who truly stand with me and regard me as my family. When I think of this
, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed of his former self.
Thinking back to the slogan of "reforming oneself through labor" that the Special Labor Brigade has repeatedly emphasized in the past half month, I wondered, could it be that I had really been transformed?
While talking and laughing, Old Man Gu received a flying talisman. After reading it, he pondered for a long time and said, "Zhu Longxi is looking for me."
The disciples were silent for a while. After a while, Old Dao Dao said: "Teacher, don't go..."
Old Man Gu thought for a moment and said, "Let's go and meet him. Shangsan Palace owes us a sum of ten thousand taels for the closure of Xiu'an. With this money, we will be more comfortable in everything we do."
The fourth child took a deep breath: "Teacher, don't ask for it...let's leave the capital..."
Old Man Gu smiled and said: "This is what Shang Sangong owes us. It was delivered to our door. Why not? Take the money and leave. Don't worry, I have my own plans as a teacher."
Old Man Gu immediately replied to Zhu Longxi: "Something has delayed me these days. We are preparing for what you mentioned, and it will be soon."
Zhu Longxi asked: "When will we do it?"
Old Man Gu replied: "Only for these few days. But I need a sum of money. Give me the ten thousand taels of silver you promised."
After a long time, while Old Man Gu was waiting anxiously, Zhu Longxi's reply came: "See you outside Shence Gate, at the sandbank in the middle of the river."
Old Man Gu breathed a sigh of relief and said to his disciples: "It's done, let's go as soon as we get the money!"
In Chaotian Palace, Zhu Longxi came to Zhu Xianjian's study. Zhu Xianjian raised his head and asked, "What's the matter?"
Zhu Longxi sat down and said, "I contacted Gu Kexue."
"It's been three months and they still haven't succeeded?"
Zhu Longxi bowed and said: "The arrangement of the ministers is wrong. It seems that someone needs to be replaced."
"how?"
Zhu Longxi sighed: "I guess Gu Kexue is trying to escape. I haven't found him for half a month, but as soon as I contacted him, Fei Fuli asked for money. Isn't this an attempt to escape?"
Zhu Xianjian thought for a while and asked: "Have they done anything before? Did it fail? Are there any traces of it exposed?"
Zhu Longxi shook his head: "I don't know any of this, but based on my guess, I'm afraid it failed after the attack, and I don't know where it happened... Could it be because of Luo Zhiqing?"
Zhu Xianjian pondered for a moment and asked, "What are you going to do?"
Zhu Longxi said: "I came here to apologize to His Highness, and also asked Your Highness to send some men to Wei Chen, and Wei Chen went to see him."
Mr. Zhu took out the jade talisman from his arms and handed it to Zhu Longxi: "Go find King De."
Zhu Longxi took it and bowed: "Wei Chen, please retire."
Northeast of the capital city, Chushencemen is less than a mile away from the river. Influenced by the dream of Abbot Zhao of Xuantan Palace, the land prices here have also risen to very high levels. Since "Inside and Outside the Imperial City" published three stories,
After this triggered heated discussions on how to solve the problem of crossing the river, housing prices have heated up again, reaching an average of 50 taels per mu.
It is said that after Hengxiangji sold all the land he had hoarded for thirty-five taels, less than half a month later, the owner had already regretted it. It was also said that a senior official from the Ministry of War threw a tea cup over it. As for the official who threw the tea cup
How a play can come alive and spread among the people is unknown.
When Mr. Gu passed by this section of the riverside tidal flat, he saw large and small circles painted on the walls of many courtyards. These circles all contained a common big character - "Demolish"!
In broad daylight, Old Man Gu did not deliberately shock the world. He rented a small boat and rowed towards the sandbank in the middle of the river. This sandbank is five to sixty feet in diameter and three feet higher than the water surface. Sometimes in the summer when there is heavy rain, the sandbank will be submerged.
, usually revealed, covered with large rocks washed down by floods and covered with various shrubs.
Old Man Gu saw Zhu Longxi sitting on a big rock. He was holding a volume of "Huainanzi" in his hand, shaking his head and reading.
When the two parties met, Zhu Longxi closed the book and smiled at Old Man Gu: "I read the wonderful part and was fascinated by it. I couldn't get up to greet him. I hope you will be considerate to me, old man."
