Volume 4: The Sleepless Snake Chapter 32: Visit!
Three days have passed since the demon from the Changsheng Dao started causing trouble in Haimen.
During these three days, the situation not only did not calm down, but instead became more and more serious.
because……
Something happened to the monsters of 'Changshengdao' too!
Ever since the day when the leader of the 'Eternal Life' sect reappeared in the world, the demons of the 'Eternal Life' sect have been jubilant, believing that the 'Eternal Life Era' had arrived. Especially in the second half of the night, after the seventeen secret strongholds of the Imperial City Division were destroyed and all the messengers failed to escape, the demons of the 'Eternal Life' sect let go of their last bit of doubt, stopped hiding, and began to jump out.
Then, they were slaughtered by an unknown master.
Some people say that it was the Cao Gang that took action.
Some people say that it was the Salt Gang that took action.
Others said it was a boxing gym or a small group.
In short, there are all kinds of opinions.
Naturally, some people also said it was that 'Mr. Mo'.
After all, everyone remembered vividly the scene of the confrontation between Mr. Mo and the Taoist master of Changsheng Dao that day.
Mr. Mo is the most likely candidate.
But the greater the possibility, the less I dare to say it.
No one is sure what kind of personality this strange 'Mr. Mo' has. If they irritate him, it will be a disaster.
Is there anyone who is not afraid?
have.
However, after taking a stroll around the ruined dock, everyone gave in.
It's not shameful.
Everyone is the same.
No one should laugh at anyone else.
However, more and more people were staring at where Mr. Mo was.
“I guess it will be soon.”
Goethe sat in the room, holding a book in his hand as a cover, but he was secretly thinking in his heart, but there was a faint smile on his face.
I have gained a lot recently!
A wave of Imperial City Division, more than a dozen [Treasure Cards].
Then, the demon of "Changshengdao" opened Goethe's eyes.
These guys who usually hide themselves are really rich.
Not to mention [treasure cards], gold, silver and jewelry.
The former has thirty-six.
The latter can be piled up into a mountain.
What concerns Goethe most is that each of these guys has more or less some inheritance, or at least some secret skills, and he doesn't know where they got them from.
In the end, these things naturally benefited Goethe.
He, Goethe, robbed the rich and gave to the poor.
Goethe spent the past three days sorting these out.
[Treasure Card] needs to be studied.
Knowledge needs to be sorted out.
For the sake of future foundation and potential, Goethe never took things lightly.
As for those gold, silver and jewelry?
Goethe also had some thoughts in his mind.
It's not useful now.
Now it’s mainly about waiting.
Chop, chop!
Suddenly, there were two sounds of sharp blades hitting wood.
Li Changhai's cheerful laughter rang out in the yard.
"Brother, your flying knife is really powerful."
Li Changhai competed in flying knife competition with the young master of the Zhang family who had disguised himself and used an alias. The latter's skill was darts, so the difference wouldn't be much if he switched to flying knives. After three rounds in a row, Li Changhai was completely defeated.
But the silly boy was not angry.
Instead, he pestered the young master of the Zhang family, wanting him to teach him how to throw knives.
The young master of the Zhang family did not act pretentiously. In order to better integrate into this small group, he began to teach in detail.
At the side, Xia Yunfei held the hilt of his sword, closed his eyes and rested, not listening at all.
The eldest lady of the Wang family and Huang Dangdang automatically avoided the topic.
Both of them are people who know their limits.
The remaining clerks in the herbal medicine shop were sent back by Lao Wang.
Some people don't understand the rules, but as a housekeeper, Old Wang must understand the rules. Although he doesn't know much about Xia Yunfei and the young master of the Zhang family, since Mr. Mo agreed to stay, can he be an ordinary person?
How can such a person’s teaching ability be poor?
He really likes this silly boy Li Changhai.
It’s definitely a good idea to learn more skills.
Old Wang thought to himself, and walked quickly out of the door of the middle courtyard and stood guard outside.
This action made the young master of the Zhang family feel a little embarrassed.
He originally planned to teach only the basics.
But as soon as this posture came out, he felt that it wouldn't work. If he didn't come up with something real, he would be embarrassed.
"Most flying knives use the power of the wrist, but it would be too obvious. I have a method of using the power of the fingers, and also a yin-yang two-hand throwing method. Listen carefully."
The young master of the Zhang family is teaching real things.
Although it is not a remarkable inheritance, Li Changhai is not stupid.
When he was studying, Li Changhai couldn't concentrate on his studies.
But if you learn this, it’s better than three.
Learn with eyes wide open.
"Changhai is so lucky."
Miss Wang said this and glanced at Huang Dangdang.
She just took advantage of the situation to come to Goethe.
Unexpectedly, Huang Dangdang also followed.
This made Miss Wang very uneasy.
That's right, it's uneasiness.
Ever since that snowy night, the eldest daughter of the Wang family keenly discovered that Huang Dangdang seemed a little different. He no longer fought with her or lost his temper like before.
Instead, it became... gentle.
Especially in front of Goethe, that kind of energy was so strong that it could only make water come out of him.
Anyone who sees that look will feel as soft as silk.
It's really tempting.
But is there anything substantial that happened?
But the eldest daughter of the Wang family didn't believe it.
She lives next door.
If something really happened, how could she not know it?
It was just that she was a step slow when cooking the hot pot that day.
snort!
Thinking of the hot pot that day, the eldest daughter of the Wang family felt regretful in her heart. If she had known that the ending would be like this, she should not have been so polite.
As a result, trouble arose out of nowhere.
In the past, Huang Dangdang and her were always competing with each other.
Now?
That's serious.
Miss Wang felt a surge of self-pity in her heart, but at the same time, she was curious about what happened that night.
Isn’t it just a hot pot meal?
Why are you getting serious now?
What about everyone's tacit understanding?
How come it's gone?
Huang Dangdang ignored the look from the eldest daughter of the Wang family.
She's just a village woman who knows nothing. What's there to worry about? She and Mr. Mo have common secrets and a common language. How can a big-breasted and brainless village woman understand that?
As Huang Dangdang thought about it, his chin began to rise.
The eldest lady of the Wang family didn’t know what Huang Dangdang was thinking, but she was sure that it was definitely not something good, so she clenched her hands.
However, the two of them were just fighting secretly.
When Goethe's eyes fell on them, everything was restrained.
"Mr. Mo, those people should be unable to sit still."
Huang Dangdang said.
This is pretty much what Goethe expected.
Three days is enough time for those guys to react.
How long will it take?
I'm afraid we'll have to change people.
"Um."
Goethe nodded.
Miss Wang became more and more anxious. What was she talking about ? Why couldn't she understand?
The more anxious she was, the calmer the eldest daughter of the Wang family became.
She lowered her head silently, staring at her toes without saying a word. Even though she really couldn't see her toes, she had to pretend.
She's not smart, what's wrong?
She admitted it.
If you dare to be domineering, she will dare to be pitiful.
How to describe the trick of pretending to be stupid and foolish.
It’s not a good idea and it’s easy to be looked down upon.
But if you are good-looking and have a good figure, it is particularly suitable and can make the men around you fall in love with you.
The eldest daughter of the Wang family planned to do just that.
Huang Dangdang saw it.
After taking a quick look and seeing that Goethe didn't notice it, I felt slightly relieved, but then my alarm bells started ringing.
An equally matched opponent is not scary.
For Huang Dangdang, this is a blessing in life.
But the most terrifying opponent is the one who is obviously not as good as you but whom you cannot kill.
Because you not only have to be careful about capsizing in the ditch.
You also have to pay attention to your own attitude. If you overdo it, it will only bring you a bad reputation.
Damn woman!
Huang Dangdang cursed in his heart, but he said slowly:
"Emperor Qian is already eighty-nine this year. Ten years ago, he became seriously ill and ignored state affairs. The entire Great Qian is governed by the Crown Prince, the Second Prince, and the Third Prince, with the eldest princess also on the side."
"On the surface, the cabinet, the three provinces and six ministries all support the crown prince, but in reality, the one who holds the real power is the eldest princess."
"The prince controls the Three Law Departments and the Imperial City Department at most."
"Many people in the cabinet support the studious and kind Second Prince and hate the cruel Crown Prince."
"And the third prince, who seemed to be born with wisdom, has been fond of Buddhist scriptures since he was a child. He is believed to be the reincarnation of the Buddha, and some even privately call him the 'Prince of Buddha'."
Huang Dangdang paused deliberately when he said this, as if waiting for the eldest daughter of the Wang family to take up the conversation.
The eldest lady of the Wang family has obviously deduced a lot from these words and the current situation in Haimen, but this is definitely not the key. Knowing this well, the eldest lady of the Wang family continued to lower her head, with an expression of "I don't understand, but you are so awesome."
Huang Dangdang was furious.
Huang Dangdang didn’t quite understand what it meant to have no moves to win before, but now he has some understanding of it.
But she couldn't waste time.
I can only continue talking.
"Haimen and the Imperial City Division suffered heavy losses before. The Crown Prince will not let this go. Similarly, the Second and Third Princes will also get involved."
"However, he will definitely not use his public identity, and will definitely secretly mobilize his trusted forces to do it."
"Sister Wang, guess which two they are?"
Huang Dangdang took the initiative again.
Aren't you pretending to be stupid? Then let me test you.
This is an obvious question. If you still pretend to be stupid, you will be considered as really stupid.
But if you answer it, I will take the opportunity to expose your pretending to be stupid and see how you pretend in the future.
Huang Dangdang narrowed his eyes and stared at the eldest daughter of the Wang family like a weasel.
The eldest daughter of the Wang family lowered her head, coiled like a snake, and her voice was intermittent, like the hissing of a snake.
"This, this... should be the Canal Transport and the Salt Gang?"
"When my father was alive, he once lamented that the current Cao Gang and Yan Gang were really powerful. They were able to take over the business. They were so powerful that they could be said to be all-powerful."
“I didn’t understand it before.”
"I just understood what Sister Huang said now."
"I see."
The eldest daughter of the Wang family stared with her big watery eyes, looking as if she had realized something.
How shameless!
It was clearly his own guess, but he pushed the blame onto his dead father!
Damn it!
Huang Dangdang gritted his teeth and wanted to give the eldest lady of the Wang family a bite.
But this time, before Huang Dangdang could speak, the eldest daughter of the Wang family spoke with a puzzled look on her face.
"What about the eldest princess?"
"She should be the most powerful, right?"
"Why didn't she do anything?"
Having said that, the eldest daughter of the Wang family looked at Goethe.
Note that he was looking at Goethe, not Huang Dangdang.
What are these two people fighting here for?
It's just Goethe.
Huang Dangdang has been making things difficult for the eldest daughter of the Wang family, but not only did the eldest daughter of the Wang family not accept the challenge, she also bypassed Huang Dangdang and went straight for Goethe.
Hearing Huang Dangdang's rapid breathing, a smile flashed in the eyes of the eldest daughter of the Wang family.
Come on, continue.
Don't think you're ahead.
Who will be the final winner?
How would it feel to be stared at with admiration and curiosity by a beautiful woman with a great figure? Most likely you would feel like you were floating in ecstasy, right?
The feeling of having your vanity satisfied will definitely make you unable to stop.
Normally, this is also the case with Goethe.
But this moment is different.
For one thing, he could always see the hatchet from time to time.
Secondly, he preferred to watch the fight between Miss Wang and Huang Dangdang.
Watching two women fighting each other without leaving any trace was more exciting than watching a play. If the scene was not inappropriate, he would have wanted to grab some peanuts and melon seeds, eat them while shouting and pulling her hair and tearing her clothes.
So, facing the inquiring eyes of the eldest lady of the Wang family.
Goethe didn't feel much.
It's a pity instead.
However, in order to be able to continue watching later.
He still coughed lightly and said.
"It is precisely because she has the greatest power that we cannot take action."
"Once she makes a move, no matter how big the hatred between the three princes is, they will unite to deal with her."
"At that time, even if she is the most powerful person, it will not be easy for her."
Goethe stopped halfway through his speech at the perfect moment.
Miss Wang immediately nodded repeatedly.
"I see."
"Mr. Mo, you are so awesome."
“You know all this.”
The eldest daughter of the Wang family once again showed a look of admiration on her face.
Huang Dangdang, who was standing by, wanted to tear the eldest daughter of the Wang family’s mouth apart.
You're the only one with a mouth!
You're the only one who knows how to flatter!
Oh, I'm so mad!
Huang Dangdang suffered another setback. It was not that she did not understand the benefits of doing so, but her personality prevented her from doing such a thing, mainly because she was a little... embarrassed.
Not anything else.
When chatting with Goethe, the sense of resonance between the two made Huang Dangdang feel like they were close friends .
But now, my confidant has to become a 'pet'.
She couldn't accept it.
But who is Huang Dangdang? After losing this round, he immediately opened up another battlefield.
"Sister Wang, you need to know what kind of person Mr. Mo is. You need to learn a lot from him. Otherwise, if you follow Mr. Mo out in the future and show your fear, that will be bad."
Come on, you're not pretending.
If you have the ability, keep pretending.
The eldest daughter of the Wang family clenched her hands again under her robe sleeves.
Although there has been a saying since ancient times that men are responsible for external affairs and women are responsible for internal affairs, after the founding of the Daqian Dynasty, people began to imitate the founding emperor and therefore brought their wives to some occasions.
No matter what happens at home, you must not lose face for your man when you go out.
You have to be presentable.
Then you have to answer fluently.
"I, I will study hard."
Miss Wang stuttered, looking flustered, but before Huang Dangdang could be happy, Miss Wang said again: "If I can't, Sister Huang, you can accompany Mr. Mo to attend, I don't mind."
Generous!
Appropriate!
The eldest daughter of the Wang family began to show off.
Huang Dangdang almost burst into cursing.
This seemingly generous and decent behavior may be useful to others, but it is useless to her.
She is a fairy, or to be more precise, a half-fairy.
This still sounds good.
Not nice to hear?
That's a half-demon.
How could she possibly attend an event like that?
Goethe on the side clapped secretly.
I thought to myself, that’s amazing.
The eldest daughter of the Wang family is really a low-key person. This kind of generous and uncostly answer not only shows her magnanimity and propriety, but also gives Huang Dangdang a critical blow.
That’s really clever.
Why didn’t I see it before?
Moreover, if she had this skill, would she have been almost driven to death by an ungrateful person?
Goethe glanced at it curiously.
But I didn't see any advice from Uncle Liu, nor did I see anything else. It was completely instinct.
Could this be the potential that has been stimulated?
Goethe became more curious and wanted to continue reading.
Too bad it doesn't work.
The person he was waiting for came.
Moreover, they came together.
Outside the door——
From the south, a horse-drawn carriage of the Cao Gang came slowly.
To the north, a carriage from the Salt Gang had just arrived.
Two carriages stopped in front of the door.
Coincidentally, the horses met.
Just a fist's distance away.
The two horses pulling the cart glared at each other, biting the bit, and kept turning up their lips, making heavy breathing sounds. If it weren't for the bit, they would have bitten each other.
The driver was even more arrogant and stern, and refused to give in.
Everyone knows who the other party is like a mirror.
Who can give in to whom?
But at this moment, a voice rang out from the carriage.
"Brothers are friendly and respectful, and the family has enough food. You go first, the third brother."
"Brothers should be patient and live in peace. Don't quarrel over trivial matters. Second brother, please go first."
The voices in the two carriages came out almost at the same time.
They sounded at the same time and fell at the same time.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
Because, at the moment the words fell, the two people in the car got out at the same time.
Staring at each other.
At the same time, he said, didn’t you let me go first?
Why don't you keep your word?
