What? As soon as Cheng Zongyang got home, he received an accident. The old classmate was defeated?

Ban Chao bowed: I'm ashamed

Feng Yuan said: It's okay to follow the rank of the rank of the Mingjing Institute of the imperial examination has always been the largest number of people. A few days ago, Zhu Maichen also submitted a memorial that the age of the Mingjing Institute of the imperial examination should be limited to more than fifty years, and the memorial below seventy years is submitted. The emperor has never replied to anyone who is the imperial examination. At the beginning, the emperor suddenly issued an edict, and the result reported by Zhu Maichen should be approved by Zhu Maichen, who is under fifty years old, will be rejected.

I understood, after a long circle, Ban Chao was still cheated by him. Zhu Maichen was restricted by his age. He also had a share, but he went for Ban Chao, but he wanted Ban Chao to give up when he saw the difficulties. The emperor was fine, but he didn't respond in advance. He changed the rules when the imperial examination had already begun. It was like Ban Chao who had worked hard for more than ten years and finally stood in the boxing ring to start the fight. The referee announced that this game was a special eunuch game. Those who had never been cut were directly sentenced to lose except Tai Shigong laughing but not saying anything else. No matter what master, they all had to cry.

The emperor was so willing to say such a big thing, and Cheng Zongyang felt speechless to the benefit of the past. The emperor was the emperor's mind, and his thoughts were like a dragon who saw the head but not the tail, which made the ministers unable to touch their temper and say to the disadvantages, the emperor was going to be crazy...

It’s good that the emperor can’t afford to serve me, so let’s do it for me. Cheng Zongyang said: Make room for the old man. Starting today, the old man will join the group.

OK, I'll make arrangements now! Feng Yuan responded and went down to handle it

Cheng Zongyang said: Old classmate, please relax and take a few days off. You will be busy in the future.

Ban Chao said: I heard that the lord has several shops in the city, and Ban wants to go and see it

Cheng Zongyang was very satisfied with the role so soon. Lao Ao, you go to Pengyishe to borrow a car and take the Mr. Clan to take a walk

Ban Chao and Ao Run left Wang Hui, who had been silent, stood up and rolled up the bamboo curtain, then turned around and sat down.

Mr. Lin summoned last night that the person sent by Lin'an to escort the token had passed Yunshui two days ago and could arrive in Luo in six days.

I have been running around, and I often can't catch up with the water mirror technique I heard from Lin'an. Most of the communications with Lin'an were controlled by Qin Hui. After Qin Hui left, he handed them over to Wang Hui to find Yan Junping on the same day. The message asked Lin'an to bring the token. It's less than twenty days so fast. It seems that he is traveling day and night, without delay.

Who is coming?

Weiyuan Escort Agency, Ruan Xianglin Ruan Female Hero

Cheng Zongyang showed an ambiguous expression, and then he thought that Wang Hui was sitting in front of him. He quickly put his face away and nodded calmly. He knew

Wang Hui said: I heard that Shi Changshi Cai borrowed some money in the palace?

It's not just a little loan? Cheng Zongyang was upset when he mentioned this matter. Lao Cai, if you say he can't do anything, then he will definitely be insincere. If you say he is doing well, then I have to go against my conscience and he can do anything for you to be nervous...

Xiao Zi is not here, Cheng Zongyang has nowhere to say anything. When his wife asked about it, she couldn't help but ask Mr. Cai to do something. The result is not to mention it for now. But the process is so ups and downs. He is ecstatic and does not go through the right path and is evil. He goes through the evil path and is evil. You say he is a monster. He can still do things with high sound, so that people can't pick things up. I really don't know which god or demon transformed it.

For example, if you borrow money, it’s fine if you borrow less, but he’s better. If you borrow hundreds of millions of dollars without blinking, is this borrowing money? Ah this is!

Wang Hui listened quietly, with a slight smile on her face. After Cheng Zongyang finished speaking, she said: I heard that Shi Changshi Cai met the young mansion in private yesterday and asked how many people there were.

What? Cheng Zongyang felt a chill behind his back. Old Cai almost killed himself with the memorial, and then he played this again. What kind of monster is he going to do?

Cai Changshi said that money is a spring, and it is hidden in a secret trough, although it has not been more than a hundred years; it flows like water, and even if it is one day, it will be full of life and a lifetime. Wulu Chongzong of Shaofu argues with him for half a day. He is indecisive and despaired, and he is even more unable to win.

How did the news spread when he met Wulu Chongzong in private?

After a letter was compiled by the Wulu Shaofu, he submitted a letter to the emperor and strongly refuted the mistakes of Cai Changshi. Wang Hui said: Wulu Chongzong is good at verbal debate, and no one can resist Luoyang, but now it is broken by Cai Changshi. Now both palaces have spread all over the world. There is a saying: Wulu Yueyue, Cai Zhejiao

Cheng Zongyang's heart was raised again at this moment. As long as he heard Cai Jingzhong take action, he would be ill. He knew that Cai was the man. If the business was done properly, he would not be named Cai. Suddenly, he suddenly made such a move. No matter how you look at it, it was weird. The intention was absolutely extremely sinister.

Cai’s thoughts are unpredictable, but when you think about the bad, you can’t escape. If you don’t guess correctly, it means that you are not bad enough.

Cheng Zongyang slapped it back and forth and tasted it. When the two quarreled, they even wrote a special letter to the emperor? I was afraid that the emperor would not know that he had a way to make money.

Wang Hui smiled with a pursed lips

Cheng Zongyang immediately muttered in his heart that the treacherous brother was not here, but his wife was not much worse than the treacherous brother, and his wife was actually a little bit more dangerous than what she thought!

Lao Cai is playing the game this time, and he finally wants to attack the emperor. Cheng Zongyang quickly turned his mind and figured out the key. How much did this guy spend to bribe Wulu Chongzong? He sang a good double act! The young mansion is the emperor's private money, and he dared to make a decision, and his courage is too big...

This double act is indeed good, Wulu Chongzong wrote a letter to openly refute Cai Jingzhong. He secretly not only revealed that Cai Jingzhong had a way to make money, but also showed that he was justified and deprived of his misfortune. From the side, Cai Jingzhong's wise emperor is currently short of money and has lost such a big bait out of thin air. How could he not be moved?

What if something happens in the future? Old Cai is not afraid. He is just for the accident. The bigger the hole he poked, the more he gets, the less he is afraid of Wulu Chongzong. He has expressed his attitude and firmly opposed Cai Jingzhong's evil words. Even if the sky falls, the board will not fall on him. Instead, the sky will really collapse. It proves his foresight that the two of them commit crimes together. One makes enough money and pats his butt and leaves. The other has no risk at all, and can still return with reputation. This double act is really making money inside. If you make a name outside, you will not suffer any loss inside and outside.

Cheng Zongyang is also an insider, so he can figure out the things that others are killed by these two guys. He has to give him a thumbs up and praise him for being kind and honest. Not to mention that ordinary people can't see it, even if they can't see it, they can't do anything about them. There is no one else who does this except Cai Jingzhong, the perverted eunuch.

Cheng Zongyang's thousands of words were summed up in one sentence: Why didn't he be struck by lightning?

Wang Hui said: The most popular saying in the palace is said to be what Cai Changshi said: Buying land and houses is outdated, and using money to make money is the king of wealth.

Cheng Zongyang really wants to write a big fan for Cai Jingzhong. This has a wide range of ideas. It’s really a pity to not be a fund manager.

Lao Cai is going to be a big demon. Cheng Zongyang said: Now is the important time, so he can't let him do whatever he wants!

The young master wants to discuss with Shi Changshi Cai?

Cheng Zong raised his head and discussed with Lao Cai. I don’t want to pay attention to him now, okay! Every time I talk to him, I look like an idiot.

The treacherous minister of Qin had a brilliant mind. Wang Hui probably had more knowledge than him. He could see Cheng Zongyang's reluctance at a glance and said with a smile: Since that's the case, I will discuss with Shi Changshi Cai?

Cheng Zongyang breathed a sigh of relief, Mrs. Lao had trouble

Wang Hui smiled slightly and said: Why are you polite, young master

…………………………

Cheng Zongyang did not go to see Cai Jingzhong. In addition to not wanting to show his idiot, more importantly, he had agreed with Lu Jing to go to Yanshi together today.

Yanshi and Yique are similar, both doors to enter and exit Luodu, but Yanshi is a little far away. The city's business trips to Luo rest for one night, renovate their luggage, change their clothes and dust, and enter Beijing calmly the next day. Therefore, although Yanshi is just a small city, there are many inns.

This is Cheng Zongyang's second time to come to Yanshi. When he was chasing Yan Yu's journey last time, he was also traveling with Lu Jing. Even the captain's documents that the two of them were disguised were still posted on the wall, but now no one has connected them with the robbers who killed and robbed people on the list.

Both of them are old horses who know the way. They didn't have much effort to find the former Bailu Academy, the White Egret Academy was bought by the government many years ago and changed to an inn. However, the changes in the building itself were not the plaque of the academy. The couplets were still there, but they were already smoky by fireworks. What was filled with was no longer the sound of students reciting books, but the neighing of the post horse, the strong smell of horse urine and the grass scattered everywhere.

Lu Jing was wearing a thick leather apron, half-squatted in the stable with a beard, pulled up a horse's hoof and placed it on his legs, squinted his eyes, and used a quick knife to trim the damaged horseshoe, and he lifted his knife and fell down his hand, cutting it quickly and accurately. The horse lies in the haystack, sniffing comfortably from time to time

The postman next to him gave a thumbs up. This craft is obvious to him as a master!

Lu Jing grinned roughly, found a hoof from the bottom and compared it. Then he picked up a claw hammer, welded the nail into the groove of the hoof with his left hand, waved the hammer with his right hand, and hit it with his right hand.

Cheng Zongyang pretended to be an apprentice, leaned against the door, and looked around, according to the secret scroll of Yue Niaoren's record, the treasure was hidden after the plaque on the reading table, the school halls on both sides of the reading table had been changed into stables, and the plaque was still there, and most of the handwriting on it was peeled off, which was vaguely written with the four words "Wei Chu Youcai".

This academy is still an outsider. No wonder it can't be handled. Cheng Zongyang muttered in his heart and gave Lu Jing a look.

Lu Jing knew what he used, but some post horses inside suddenly neighed and were afraid that the post horses were being scared to be scared of the horses being nailed to the horses. He hurried over to comfort Cheng Zongyang and went out, jumped up while the person was unprepared, and touched the plaque.

A large hole was dug out of the brick wall behind the plaque. The items inside were gone, leaving only a few broken bricks. However, when Cheng Zongyang glanced at him, there was a rather suspicious blood stain behind the plaque. With Yue Niaoren's usual urination, I don't know which unlucky person was cheated again, and it was also very pitted.

The postman finally comforted the horses, but when he turned around, the master who had just nailed the horseshoe and his apprentice disappeared silently, leaving only the postman who had just nailed a hoof lying on the ground, with his expression as confused as he was.

It was broad daylight, but the postman couldn't help but shiver. Is this a ghost?

Lu Jing tear off his beard, put away his bags, and dressed up as a walking man who could be seen everywhere on the street, walking side by side with Cheng Zongyang

Nothing?

There were only some blood stains. Cheng Zongyang tentatively said: Our Yue Shuai is quite cruel?

Be kind to your enemies is cruel to yourself

Needless to ask, this must be taught by Yue Shuai

Be right

Cheng Zongyang sighed and took out a few broken bricks from his sleeve. Actually, there was this one

Lu Jing took it and saw that the broken bricks were ordinary blue bricks, but the patterns carved on the bricks were quite strange. After being put together, it was barely obvious that there were strange little people carved on the two bricks. Their patterns were exactly the same. They wore exaggerated pointed hats on their heads, strange colored clothes and pointed shoes, and one was round and big nose. The difference was that one of them had only lines, and the other had traces of colored paint, which seemed to have been colored.

Cheng Zongyang said: Does it look familiar?

Lu Jing nodded

A big ghost and a little ghost are fighting together...

A bomb

Look, this is the warning left by Yue Shuai. There is a bomb inside, don't touch it randomly

Lu Jing suddenly laughed out loud

Cheng Zongyang said angrily: What's so funny about this?

In the past, the fourth brother took four bombs in one round. After one round, it made Yue Shuai blue. Yue Shuai was angry and insisted that the fourth brother cheated.

How can the fourth brother cheat? Cheng Zongyang finds it incredible

No. Lu Jing said: The cheating was that Boss Meng was too lucky that day, and he lost even his pants. He was afraid that Yue Shuai would see it, so he specifically stole the cards and got angry for the fourth brother Yue Shuai. Boss Meng was pretending to be a good person and pretended to persuade him. As a result, the little fox was watching from behind. He had just been beaten by Boss Meng and was furious. He stabbed Boss Meng on the spot, saying that he had hidden a ghost of all sizes and got four bombs for the fourth brother...

I said, Yue Shuai will teach you how to play these things?

Do you think Yue Shuai is telling us the big truth all day long?

I don’t know the big truth, but I will definitely teach you a lot of bad tricks to see how he does these things...

Cheng Zongyang couldn't even say a total of eight jade tablets. The places he had found were almost all traps. It was obvious that Yue Niaoren had made sufficient preparations for his relics to fall into the hands of his enemies. Those traps were specially set up for enemies. Each trap was left with warnings that only those from Xingyue Lake Camp could understand. So where was his real intention? Where were the clues he left? Did they all be taken away by the people from the Black Demon Sea? Since he had planned so carefully, why didn't he beware of these?

The two of them were thinking about their own thoughts and walked silently on the street Cheng Zongyang sighed: Only Chu is talented, success or failure is here... I really can't tell that Ah, Yue Shuai is still a cultural person

How could ordinary people know that Yue Shuai is both civil and military?

Lu Wu Ge is still very low-key, but he is bragging for Yue Niaoren. He can only use the four words "shamed" to describe Cheng Zongyang ignored his boasting. While silently chanting the two inscriptions, he remembered those malicious swearing poems. Suddenly, his heart moved and stopped.

Lu Jing turned around, what's wrong?

Cheng Zongyang threaded the three sentences and vaguely captured the clues. He suppressed the excitement in his heart and said: Fifth Brother, I ask you, what is the slogan of Xingyue Lake Camp?

There are pedestrians coming and going on the street. Lu Jing didn't speak, but from his eyes, Cheng Zongyang had read the eight words: Sunrise in the east, I am the only one who is invincible to every Xingyue Lake camp is familiar with the slogan.

Cheng Zongyang said slowly: Only Chu Youcai...Wood Shilu... Success or failure depends on this...

Among them, he used the accent of the words "Yu, "Wai" and "Defeat"

A trace of splendor burst out in Lu Jing's eyes. Without saying a word, he turned around and walked into the back alley, smoothed the soil with his feet, picked up the broken bricks and wrote on it:

The plaque of the Bailu Academy, only Chu Youcai

The highest peak in Beigu, lying on stone green

The Success or failure of the Holy Marquis Temple is here

Then:

Luodu Sanglin, Dongguan Fifth Pine

Shanglinyuan, Abbot Island

These two places were searched for by Lu Jing alone, and the word "Oriental" appeared in succession.

The layer of window paper in front of me was pierced, and my heart suddenly became bright. One or two places may be a coincidence, but it is definitely not a coincidence.

Cheng Zongyang said: The seven places have already faced the five places, the remaining two places, one is in Yique, and the other is in Shouyang Mountain, and there are still three words left: Sun, out, if our inference is not wrong, two of them will definitely be found near Yique and Shouyang Mountain.

Lu Jing said: I'll go to Shouyang Mountain

Cheng Zongyang said: Then I'll go to Yique

Shouyang Mountain is the first piece of jade plaque, and the distance is the farthest. If you go with me, you will not be able to delay time alone.

Lu Jing didn't say anything nonsense, picked out the jade plaques and secret scrolls from Shouyang Mountain, handed the rest to Cheng Zongyang, then left the alley, and disappeared as soon as he turned around.

…………………………

The ship was moored to the dock. As soon as it stopped, Cheng Zongyang jumped off the boat, raised his hands and sniffed, then wrapped his outer robe and walked to the shore.

Yanshi is located on the north bank of Luoshui, and you can take a direct flight to Yique by boat. Cheng Zongyang is lucky. When he asked at the pier, he happened to have a boat to Yique. Although the passengers were full, the bow could still squeeze out a position. So Cheng Zongyang spent 80 copper baht to take a boat. The speed was a little slower, which was more labor-saving. Moreover, there was no bumps in the carriages. If it was spring and summer, such a journey would be pleasant. Unfortunately, it was winter now. The cold wind that had blown at the bow for two or three hours was a bit unbearable.

What's even more unlucky is that when Cheng Zongyang arrived at Yique, he found that the city had been in seclusion. Moreover, as the throat of entering and leaving Luodu, Yique's curfew was stricter than Luodu. It was just dark, and all the shops at the dock were closed. Xie Ke looked at it and it was dark everywhere, and only the torches of the Luozhu on the city wall flashed from time to time.

Cheng Zongyang fucked in his heart, and in desperation, he had to swallow his saliva and climb up the mountain with hunger.

Yique is Longmen Mountain in the east, Xiangshan in the west, and Yishui in the middle. After half an hour, according to the direction contained in the secret scroll, Cheng Zongyang found an octagonal pavilion on the top of Xiangshan. The burial point on the side of the pavilion was also dug. Even the stone tablet that should have been standing there was downed, leaving only a large pit half a person deep. Of course, the things inside had disappeared long ago.

Fortunately, Cheng Zongyang knew that there were all kinds of tricks in it, so he didn't feel sad if he lost it. What he really cared about was the stone tablet. Is it written on it? Is it sun, or is it not a word?

Cheng Zongyang tried hard to turn the stone tablet over. As the situation was, he felt like he was pouring a basin of cold water stone tablets on it: Tiao Luo I think I could stand in the pavilion during the day and look at Luodu, but I didn’t want this at all!

Cheng Zongyang wiped the soil and moss on the stele, and touched them up and down, but there was no third word on the stele except the word "Tiaoluo"

Could it be that his guess was wrong? Cheng Zongyang suppressed the doubts in his heart. He threw away the stone tablet and started from the octagonal pavilion and carefully searched around him.

After searching for nearly two hours in one breath, he touched the pavilion, but he never found any words, Cheng Zongyang was exhausted, and had to stop in disappointment. It was already late at night. The mountain wind was cold and blowing through the cold, and Cheng Zongyang was hungry, cold and thirsty. He even scolded Yue Niaoren for ten thousand times. This bird man was really unreliable. He had just a little bit of a smile, and before he could pass, he slapped loudly in the face and said that he was lucky. Brother Lu rushed to Shouyang Mountain all the way, but he lost his face. He didn't know what darkness was.

Maybe it was because it was too dark? Cheng Zongyang was still a little unwilling to give up. He didn't want to disturb the patrol soldiers and did not light a torch. He relied on his eyes to search. Although with his current eyesight, it was almost the same as ignition or not, maybe it was a little short of it?

Seeing the night getting darker, Cheng Zongyang couldn't stay on the mountain anymore. In this weather, the northwest wind that drank for a night on the mountain was not a joke, so why not come back tomorrow. Take advantage of the dawn to search for it.

Cheng Zongyang, who had nothing to find, left Xiangshan with the last glimmer of hope, rushed straight to the dock, looking for a night boat to return to Luodu, but today's good luck seemed to be used up in Yanshi. Either the boat was empty or the boatman was sleeping well, and occasionally a boatman was on the light, but several boatmen were quietly gambling. As soon as he opened the curtain, he caused a low-key scolding.

Ten silver coins, go to Luodu. Cheng Zongyang didn't talk nonsense and asked for a bid code.

The shouting stopped, and several boatmen looked at each other without making any noise

Twenty pieces

Take a boat from Yique to Luodu, the shipment usually costs only twenty or thirty copper zhu. Even if you charter a boat, five silver zhu is enough. Twenty silver zhu is definitely not a small number for these boatmen.

Several boatmen looked at a dark man in the middle, as if he was following his horse's head and looked at Cheng Zongyang, and after a while he opened his mouth: Fifty

The deal was completed! Cheng Zongyang agreed happily

The man threw the dice, got up, picked up a wind-shielding straw raincoat, and said eagerly: Brother Xu, I'll go with you!

Walking!

The two got out of the cabin and got on a small boat next to them. They boarded the board to invite the guests to come up. Then they skillfully untied the cables. The man named Xu supported the dock with a bamboo pole. The boat left the dock. The young man rowed hard, and the boat swung into the river.

The journey from Yique to Luodu was smooth, and it took not much effort to wait for the ship to steadily. The man named Xu got into the cabin and looked him up and down.

Cheng Zongyang didn't care at all. This man seemed to be a little skillful, but with his current cultivation level, he was not afraid of even a hundred such men.

Cheng Zongyang yawned, but heard the man say: Do you want to eat?

Cheng Zongyang was hungry, and he was immediately excited when he heard this, "You must!"

The man named Xu picked up a pot, rinsed in the river, scooped half a pot of water, sat on the stove, and then used flint to draw the fine velvet and raise the fire.

The chopped wood is in the stove. It is cooked. Soon, a small fish eye bubble appears in the pot. The man named Xu picks up a fish, washes it at the stern of the boat, throws it into the pot, boils it over high heat, and then packs the stove, picks up a handful of seasoning mixed with large grains of salt and stirs it into the soup, and handes a wooden spoon

The cold wind outside the cabin was howling, the temperature was getting lower and lower, and the squeaking sound of rowing continued to come from the stern of the boat, and the fire made a sizzling sound, the hull was shaking, and the fish soup in the pot rippled, almost overflowing. The fragrance of fish soup in the cabin was full of fish soup Cheng Zongyang took a thick and heavy wooden spoon and scooped the soup. After sipping, he felt a warm flow into his stomach, and most of the chill in his body was driven away.

A pot of fish soup was drunk completely, and Cheng Zongyang let out a sigh and put down the wooden spoon. He felt that the pot of fish soup was the most delicious taste he had ever tasted in his life. His stomach was also warm. A feeling of sleepiness rose on his body. Cheng Zongyang stretched his waist, but his face changed as soon as his arm was lifted halfway.

There was a sound of friction outside the cabin, as if it was driving into the reed marsh, then the hull shook slightly and stopped.

The man named Xu crawled into the cabin, grabbed Cheng Zongyang's arm, put it on his shoulder, bent his waist and carried him out of the cabin.

Outside, there was no sign of Luodu, but a reed marsh that was not in front of the village or the shop behind the village. At this time, seven or eight boats were stopped, and there was a wooden house made of worn-out boat boards on the shore, which seemed to be the residence where boatmen gathered.

The man named Xu carried Cheng Zongyang into one of the big houses, threw them on the ground, and said excitedly: Master! I bumped into a fat sheep!

A slight footsteps came from the room, and someone seemed to come out and said, "This guy is very rich. From Yique to Luodu, he will give him fifty silver baht when he opens his mouth! I will let him get a pot of soup and make him miss him.

A voice said: Customer?

Unlike the man named Xu, he said: Look at how he eats fish. Although he is so hungry, he still picks up the fish head and eats it first, but he looks like a young master from which family he is.

The man said unhappily: Didn’t I say that I would be more at peace these days?

The man surnamed Xu said: When I saw this kind of young man who didn't take money, I was angry that the food was getting more and more expensive now. Everyone waited for the rice to be put into the pot and made this vote. Brothers finally didn't have to go hungry for the New Year. I'll do this! After searching, I threw him on the road to ensure that he would not ruin his life.

The man snorted, walked over, and happened to meet Cheng Zongyang.

The man named Xu then realized that this kid was still awakening the boss! He had met us, but it was amazing to keep him!

go out!

The man named Xu shut up and quickly retreated

The house became quiet, and only the boss couldn't suppress his breathing, and he became more and more anxious

In front of the boss, Cheng Zongyang yawned a big yawn, and then closed his eyes lazily. The medicine is really strong, I'll sleep for a while...

A beautiful young woman in front of her was dead, and she looked at the man who was sleeping with a relieved look on the spot. Her expression seemed sad and happy, and she couldn't tell whether she wanted to laugh or cry.

After a long time, the young woman knelt down and whispered: Yes, Master...
