One hundred and forty-eight, wait for the king to come down the mountain
The escorts of Wuhe Escort Agency were satisfied with the meals served by the Heqing County Huafu to entertain them. After eating dry food and coarse cakes for twenty days in a row, they could have such a good meal to reward themselves. This time the escorts left.
It seems worth it.
In addition to all the delicacies prepared in the Washington Palace, there were also several jars of fine wine. Once the lids were opened, the aroma of the wine excited the few wine-lovers among the escorts. Just smelling the aroma of the wine, it was not like
It's cheap stuff, and Washington is really generous in taking action.
However, this unusual courtesy made the sophisticated Gu Shengyang doubtful. According to the old rules, after the bodyguards of the escort agency arrived, the hospitable host would often treat him to a meal, and this good meal should only be treated as the host of the Washington Palace.
He was hospitable and wealthy, but he smelled the wine right. Wujiang Brewing. Normally, Wujiang Brewing costs about twenty taels of silver per jar, not to mention the cobwebs and dust covering the top.
It is also aged for three to five years.
Bringing several jars of wine worth five hundred taels to receive their group of escorts from the Wuhe Escort Agency. If the owner of the Washington Mansion hadn't had the courage to come back after all his money had been spent, then it would have been a request from the Wuhe Escort Agency, and
This request was probably quite difficult, so he had to offer this wine to please everyone in the escort agency.
Therefore, Gu Shengyang did not taste much of this old wine with a mellow aroma and a long aftertaste. Instead, he worriedly waited for Zhang Bashun to come back to deliver the news.
After waiting for Zhang Bashun to come back, Zhang Bashun ate some food indiscriminately. He saw that some of the escorts in the escort agency were drunk and staggering around. He immediately felt a little upset on his face. This escort had just been escorted to the house, and they were polite and generous.
Bringing out wine to entertain these people who don't know the rules and get drunk. Do you really think that the wine in this house is so delicious?
"Drink, drink, drink, sooner or later something will happen to the bodyguard." Gu Shengyang cursed in a low voice.
"Dad, what did you say?" Gu Sheng, who was so drunk that he was lying on the table, vaguely heard his father's words, raised his head and asked with blurred eyes.
When Old Gu Gu Shengyang saw that his son was also behaving like this, his face was full of hatred for iron. However, he had no choice but to let a few escorts from the escort agency who had not drunk much help the confused escorts and follow Hua.
Everyone in the house went to the guest room to rest.
He let out a long sigh. The people in the escort agency, even the highly respected old escorts, have a capacity to drink two kilograms. On weekdays, they only drink three ounces to satisfy their cravings when escorting escorts. How can they be like the people who are escorting escorts now? Even though they have just escorted escorts, they should be open to the public.
After a meal, he is still in the owner's house. If he really behaves in a bad way and falls into the eyes of others, he will undoubtedly be a lower class. If he has a bad impression of Wu He Escort and no longer have business dealings with him in the future, then that's terrible
It's really a huge loss.
But at this age, Gu Shengyang was just a senior escort from Wuhe Escort Agency. At this age, his martial arts realm was still at the second level. Seeing that there was no hope of further progress, Gu Shengyang put all his body and mind on his only son.
On Gu Sheng, Gu Sheng touched the threshold of the second floor before he reached the age of Guan Guan. The chief escort touched his bones again and said that if nothing happened to this child in the future, his martial arts achievements would definitely be one level higher than his father's.
There are more buildings.
Therefore, Gu Shengyang came out to guard the bodyguard this time and took Gu Sheng with him, who had been clamoring to come out to see the world. He wanted to train this child as soon as possible so that he could take on a big responsibility in the future. The position of head bodyguard was easily available, and the position of chief bodyguard was also available.
I can go and compete.
What Gu Sheng did along the way was undoubtedly a great disappointment to him as a father who hoped that his son would become a successful boy. He was provoked twice by others, and he was so angry with just two sentences that he got into fights with others.
This time, he had a conflict with a local snake blocking the road. He took the lead and rushed to fight with others. He was knocked over by someone with a stick. Wu and all the escorts in the escort agency risked their lives to save them but failed to make any contribution. If it weren't for Wei Wei
If my brother takes action, Gu Sheng's life will have to be handed down there.
Even though Gu Shengyang was unwilling to do so, he still had to admit that his only son was not a bodyguard leader. According to his temperament, he could at best be a top-notch bodyguard.
Seeing Wu He and everyone in the Escort Bureau making arrangements in the guest room of the Washington Palace, Gu Shengyang noticed that Wei Changpan, who had been helping everyone in the Escort Bureau, did not smell of alcohol at all, and the glass in front of him was not touched, so he asked without thinking: "
Brother Wei, it’s rare to see such good wine, why don’t you have two glasses?”
Wei Changpan's face turned red. It wasn't that he didn't want to drink it. It was because he didn't catch a cold after seeing the wine. After taking a sip, he felt his throat was burning. Knowing that he was not lucky enough to bear the wine, he concentrated on the dishes in front of him.
, while others drank until ten minutes, he ate until ten minutes, and his stomach felt heavy.
"When you join a profession, you naturally have to abide by the rules of the profession." Wei Changpan said seriously, "This is the principle of how to behave as a person taught by your family teacher."
In fact, there is something behind what Mr. Qian said. If you join other professions in the future and don't do things the way others do, they won't want to see you and will give you little shoes to wear and make you suffer. Then they will punish you overtly or covertly.
It's too late to cry for father and mother.
Wei Changpan also omitted some of the foul language in Qingshan Town and Qishan County. After hearing the words that were shortened by Wei Changpan, Gu Shengyang frowned and thought for a moment and sighed:
"Little brother Wei, everyone in the world knows the words "respect the master" in their hearts, but only less than one-tenth of them can actually do it. A master who can train such a talented person as little brother Wei, Gu really wants to meet him.
See."
"I can't see you." Wei Changpan reluctantly replied, but his mind was far away, to that mountain thousands of miles away where pine waves billow when the wind blows.
Before leaving Jiangzhou, Zhou Gandang told him the news that Zhang Wu and Qian Erye, who had been hanging on the gate of Songfeng Mountain for a long time, were taken down by Gao Xu, the owner of Songfeng Mountain, and buried in a pine forest at the back of Songfeng Mountain.
In the middle, two coffins were placed side by side. According to the news from the disciples of Songfeng Mountain, Gao Xu, the owner of the mountain, personally placed a stick of incense and burned a bunch of yellow paper in front of their graves.
"Chang Pan." Zhou Gandang said to him seriously before leaving, "Uncle Master, the future of martial arts in this life is already limited. Whether our sect can avenge its past disgrace depends on you."
Wei Changpan was silent for a long time before replying: "My nephew...will try his best."
"It's not about trying your best, this is what you have to do." Zhou Gandang grabbed his shoulders and shook him, his eyes red, "Your master and my master both died on that mountain, we must avenge him, otherwise
How can I have the face to meet them under the Nine Springs?"
"My nephew...will try his best." This was still the only sentence.
Zhou Gandang let go of his hand and looked slumped: "Maybe this is really difficult for someone to do... But Uncle Master still begs you to kill those two people..."
"Otherwise, Uncle Master will not be able to sleep at night."
Gu Shengyang noticed that Wei Changpan's face was not good, so he stopped asking any more questions. He just felt a little regretful in his heart, perhaps because he deliberately concealed his master's knowledge.
At this moment, Zhang Bashun opened the side door and came in. Gu Shengyang saw that his expression was also gloomy, so he went up to ask.
"Don't mention it." Zhang Bashun, who smelled of alcohol, sat down on the stool, "The master of this house set up a banquet table and brought out a jar of ten-year-old wine, so he felt something was wrong. Sure enough,
, after three glasses of wine, the guy started acting like a rogue, rolling around on the ground, saying that if our bodyguard didn't stay to protect his daughter, then Wu Erlang would kidnap her, and he would have to hang himself."
"At that time, there were people nearby who were interjecting with sweet words, saying that this rich daughter of Washington was always good, but once she was robbed, her innocence would be lost..." Zhang Bashun patted his head, "The small cup that the master used was given to me.
A big bowl. After three bowls, I felt a little drowsy, and when I was aroused by his words, my tone became a little looser."
After hearing what Zhang Bashun said, how could Old Gu Gu Shengyang not know what he was going to say next? His expression also changed slightly: "Then you... accept it?"
"Originally, it's okay to say that we have enough manpower. You have all seen the guys on Woniu Mountain. They are not very helpful. Of the two to three hundred people, less than half can sneak into the county. We have twenty or so
It’s called a martial artist, so it’s not difficult to resist him.”
"The key lies in the level of Wu Erlang's martial arts. Master Na Hua hesitated and gave a number, saying that it is possible to have four, five or six floors." Zhang Bashun cursed, "Damn it, four floors or six floors."
Floor, luckily he can tell! I was so angry that I stumbled when I walked out of that door."
....
Gu Shengyang and Wei Changpan were also speechless for a while. Your master in Huafu has such a huge family property in Heqing County. He can't even find out the martial arts level of a bandit leader on Woniu Mountain. I dare you to spend all your money on it.
Have you eaten or drank?
Zhang Bashun took a deep breath to calm down the fire in his chest, and said in a deep voice: "Before I came back, I asked a few servants in the Washington House that I once held the position of head of the capital in Yanggu County. I could kill a big insect with three punches and two kicks and almost not hit a hair."
The innocent hero who went up the mountain to become a bandit took care of Pan Heng, a man named Jin who was on the fourth level of martial arts."
"It's hard for you, Lao Gu, to kill big insects, but Brother Wei and I can probably do it with knives. But if we want to escape unscathed, how lucky do we have to be?"
"There is also the man surnamed Jin who is the boss of Woniu Mountain. We had fought against each other back then. The pair of axes lost their strength after being carried for about twenty times. After two more times, they were dead. As a result, they were hit repeatedly by Wu Erlang.
Are you going to take care of it if you divide it by two?" Zhang Bashun said in a mocking tone, "Then how many of us can survive if we have to fight against a mountain king who can support a second- or third-rate sect in a single state?"
"According to me, it's better to inform our branch in Suzhou as soon as the team arrives." Gu Shengyang came up with this idea, but he rejected it in the blink of an eye, "The branch is far away, and I'm afraid there won't be enough days."
"What about the government?" Wei Changpan thought of something, "The government in Heqing County doesn't do anything?"
"They are all thinking about how to reduce the number of people who starve to death on their own land. You are a daughter of a wealthy family and sending a few government servants to guard the house is already a big deal. Heqing County Sheriff can only mobilize the Suzhou state army.
And he won’t be here for a while.”
Zhang Bashun had a cruel look on his face, "You idiot is willing to pay three thousand taels of silver. If we can accomplish this, I will have money to support you and me in our retirement."
Everyone present was silent.
All that can be done now is to wait for the great king to come down from the mountain.
