Chapter 662 Chapter 662: Chinese New Year Another Year 【Two in One】
"Grandpa, Gonggong Xichou—are you crazy?" Chao Lian tried his best to bend his neck back, greedily taking a breath of fresh air, and at the same time tried to break away Gongxichou's fingers that were pinching his neck. The neck is about to be folded in the hands of this reckless man, "Are you going to strangle me?"
"When did you meet that person?"
"Where did you see him?"
"Say! If you make a lie, I'll screw your head off. Even if Gu Ziyi leads his troops over, I can only collect your body!"
Gong Xiqiu loosened his grip, but still didn't let go.
Chao Lian looked at Gong Xichou above, coughed twice, and signaled if he could get up: "This is not a place to talk, and we don't seem to be able to talk like this..."
When Gong Xiqiu saw the piece of paper, he suddenly got into trouble.
With one hand, he pinched Chao Lian by the neck and pushed him down on the table.
Seeing that the situation is not good, the nearby vendors slipped away quickly.
"Cough cough cough—" Feeling the strength on his neck lessen, Chao Lian seized the opportunity to turn over and get off the table, propping up the table with one hand, coughing continuously, and finally calmed down after a while, then asked Gong Xichou, "That person looks similar to you, Could it be your relative?"
Judging by his age and appearance, he is probably the younger brother of Gong Xiqiu?
Chao Lian felt a little regretful.
He and Gong Xiqiu had only met once or twice. When he saw the young man's face that day, he vaguely felt familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him. After seeing Gong Xiqiu's iconic alien costume, he suddenly remembered that the two looked similar.
Gong Xiqiu looked at Chao Lian coldly.
"You answer my question."
The six words "If you don't answer or die" are written in your eyes.
Chao Lian was very knowledgeable about current affairs, so he answered in a straightforward manner: "On the 16th, I met that young man with an immature face. He looked at most thirteen or fourteen years old. He came to the city to buy cloth, needlework, salt, sugar and other things. Because of a trivial matter and Thirteen had a conflict. This person is neither like a literary scholar nor a brave fighter, and he used unprecedented means to subdue Thirteen with just one move."
"Young man? Thirteen or fourteen?"
Gong Xiqiu pinched his fingers in his heart and made the final decision.
The more you count, the brighter your eyes will be!
"What you said is true?"
Chao Lian asked back: "This person is related to Shisan's life. Our brother wants to find him more than you. What good is it to deceive you?"
Gong Xiqiu was ecstatic in his heart!
At this age, he is definitely the eldest brother's child!
His good nephew!
In order to further verify his guess, Gong Xiqiu wanted to meet Shaochong. According to Chao Lian, the good nephew had a fight with Shao Chong, and Shao Chong definitely left evidence on him. His heart was like an arrow, and he couldn't wait for a breath, so he dragged people away.
Chao Lian's neck was once again in crisis.
"Gong Xiqiu—let me down!"
"Don't bark!"
In the past few days, Gu Ren wished to dig the city three feet into the ground, but there was no good news. As the night of the full moon was getting closer, he became more and more anxious, and he was not in the mood to deal with the table full of letters. After reading a few lines, I couldn't help but sigh.
Boom—
A loud bang!
The violent force smashed into the gate of the government hall.
Gu Ren is also someone who is used to assassination scenes. He calmly raised his hands and waved his sleeves. But other things in the hall were not so lucky, they were washed into a mess.
Like the ruins of a hurricane.
"Who is presumptuous!"
Gu Ren scolded in a deep voice.
Nearby guards and stepbrothers also rushed over.
After seeing the intruder, Gu Ren's serious expression cracked for a moment—Gong Xiqiu! His twelfth younger brother was still held between his arms, with an expression of lovelessness. After all, he is an old fox who is used to storms. He blinked and regained his composure. When he saw Gong Xichou's distinctive family crest, he was secretly startled. He immediately thought of the boy from that day, and immediately waved his sleeves to make the guards retreat.
"General Gongxi made a sudden visit, why?"
"Meet your brother."
Gong Xiqiu left Chao Lian behind.
The tone was arrogant and natural, as if he was the master here.
Gu Ren ordered Chao Lian to bring Shao Chong back.
There are two other righteous brothers, like the two generals Hum Ha, staring at Gong Xichou from left to right, to prevent the other party from suddenly violently attacking him. Regarding this, Gong Xiqiu sneered and sneered, he didn't pay attention to the two weaklings at all, and he didn't take it seriously until Shao Chong appeared.
"Fifteenth grade young master?"
Gongxiqiu saw through Shaochong's strength at a glance, and Shaochong also recognized Gongxiqiu as the enemy general in the first battle of Xiaocheng. How could this person be here?"
Gu Ren said: "I'm looking for you."
Shao Chong rolled up his sleeves: "Looking for me? Looking for me to fight?"
Gong Xiqiu curled his lips: "Just you?"
If it is the other fifteenth-class young masters, it will indeed make him feel tricky, but Shao Chong is not one of them. The opponent's strength is obtained by stimulating the potential of the Gongxi tribe's secret technique Gu worm, and the vitality and lifespan have been overdrawn, and the Gu worm is still a semi-finished product. In this case, even if Gong Xiqiu is not the high priest, he still has a way to indirectly abolish Shao Chong by influencing the Gu worms.
Gu Ren drank lightly and less rushed: "Thirteen, don't be rude!"
Stop rushing and calm down for a while, not daring to disobey Gu Ren.
Gong Xiqiu stepped forward, walked around Shaochong under everyone's attention, and walked to the back of the latter, reaching his hands like thunder, grabbed Shaochong's collar and tore off his jacket, revealing half of his back unexpectedly. Shao Chong jumped up and retreated, saying: "Why are you destroying my clothes?" "
"Watch your back."
Shao blushed coldly: "They're all men, what's so good about them?"
When the words fell, Gong Xiqiu looked at him with undisguised contempt: "You are lucky, and you have saved your life for a while." Only then did everyone see that there were totem-like lines on Shao Chong's back at some point , clearly visible in sunlight.
The pattern is divided into two colors: brown black and green.
The brown and black are ferocious insect patterns, and the green is like a circle of trees and vines.
The latter envelops the former.
Gu Ren was surprised: "This is?"
Xu is in a good mood, and Gong Xiqiu is willing to say a few more words.
"The seal speech spirit unique to the high priest of the Gongxi clan is specially used to suppress the secret art of Gu worms. Newborns of our clan, regardless of gender, will plant a companion Gu worm on the day of the full moon. This Gu worm is closely related to the host. Live and die together. Ordinary quality can only speed up the healing of injuries, assist in cultivation, and make the host healthy. If the quality is high, as long as the host does not suffer fatal injuries such as beheading, there is a certain chance of survival... But, there are advantages and disadvantages The more domineering the effect of the Gu insect, the easier it is to get out of control. Under normal circumstances, the high priest must seal it. As the host grows older and stronger, it will gradually be unsealed." The quality of the Gu insect in his body is the highest, and it has only appeared since the records of the clan seven.
Why can Gong Xiqiu get one alone?
According to Jimo Can—
【Your brother is stupid, he made love to you. 】
Gu Ren's eyes lit up: "Is this the seal?"
Gong Xiqiu nodded: "Yes."
This seal is also enough to prove one point—
The high priest of the Gongxi nationality appeared!
"...According to what General Gongxi said, the seal will gradually unseal with age. In other words, is Thirteen safe now? Will there be any danger on the next full moon night?" Gu Ren held his breath nervously , Waiting for Gong Xiqiu's answer.
"Yes!" Gong Xichou changed the subject, "However, the Gu worms on his body are not pure, they are just the products of four different shapes, and the sealing effect may not be that good. If he wants to save his life, he must increase his strength to a higher level before the seal collapses. , or find the high priest and apply another layer. Stabilize the mood and try not to stimulate the awakening of the Gu worms, which will accelerate the collapse of the seal."
After hearing this, Gu Ren cupped his fists in gratitude.
Sincerely said: "Thank you!"
Gong Xiqiu doesn't like their thanks, he just wants to know—
"The person who left the seal, where did he go?"
Gu Ren smiled wryly: "To tell the truth, we don't know. I heard that he had a way to save Shisan. He immediately closed the city for several days just to find him. After so many days, there was no news."
Gong Xiqiu frowned, obviously dissatisfied with this answer.
"I don't even know where he went?"
"Unfortunately, I don't know."
"Then what do you know?"
Gong Xiqiu looked at them like he was looking at a pile of trash, and he answered everything, but the other party replied "I don't know"?
Chao Lian and Shao Chong know the most.
But Shao Chong's expressive ability is far inferior to the former.
He told all the details of what happened that day, hoping to help Gong Xiqiu. It was about elder brother and good nephew, Gong Xichou listened very carefully and refused to miss every single word.
"That's it?"
Chao Lian said: "That's all."
Gong Xiqiu restrained his dissatisfaction, Gu Ren had a very wink: "If that Xiaolang appears again, we will definitely notify General Gongxi." He also politely asked Gong Xichou to stay for a few days, so that he could show his kindness as a landlord, but People don't give face and refused.
He has other important things to do.
Who wants to waste time with Gu Renxu and make mistakes?
Seeing that he couldn't keep him, Gu Ren took the initiative to send some money, as a thank you gift, just to make a good relationship. Gong Xiqiu accepts it bluntly. He comes fast and goes fast. However, instead of looking for his eldest brother and good nephew, he went directly to Yiru.
Find someone, Zhang He.
He is the only person in Gong Xiqiu Zhizhi who has seen the appearance of the "sacred object". If the "sacred object" that Zhang He saw is exactly the same as Mama when he was young, the holy object = Mama, it will be a little more reliable. Thinking of this, he felt a little regretful about that incident back then.
Shen Tang had disguised his appearance when he went to see Zhang He. If he hadn't disguised himself, maybe he could have found out the truth earlier.
After the matter is settled, he will go to his eldest brother and good nephew.
With the head, Gong Xiqiu only feels that life is fulfilling.
Within two days, Qiu Cheng's body was also sent back to the Qiu family.
The patriarch of the Qiu clan, that is, Qiu Cheng's brother, received the news, his mind went blank, his expression seemed to be crying but not crying, and he kept muttering: "I never had the idea of forcing him to death, why should he do this? I was poked in the back by the world?"
His wife also had a serious expression on her face.
The resentment towards Qiu Cheng deepened in his heart.
The husband and wife are willing to repay grievances with virtue for the sake of blood relationship, but who knows that Qiu Wenyan treats the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and played a scene of killing himself with a sword.
Isn't this putting the couple on fire?
She gritted her teeth: "I really don't know what's good..."
Qiu Dalang frowned: "...that's all."
"What's that? I was planted for no reason! If I knew he would repay his kindness, I would never approve of you selling your private treasury and giving him a ransom... Not to mention the redeemed body, and the notoriety of 'killing siblings'." , are you able to hold your breath?"
Qiu Dalang patiently comforted his furious wife.
said softly: "It's too much to swallow, it's all like this. Let's think better, we still have breath to swallow..."
The patriarch's wife was still itching with anger.
When he thought that he would have to face the widow's sister-in-law, his expression smelled like he had swallowed thousands of flies. If it wasn't for her good temper, she really wanted to ask someone to throw Qiu Wenyan's coffin out. Since they are determined to be villains, why bother to use the dead body to disgust people?
No matter how wronged the husband and wife were, they had to pinch their noses and muster their energy to deal with Qiu Cheng's affairs.
Mrs. Qiucheng and her children cried so heartbrokenly in front of the newly built mourning hall that they passed out for a while, which seemed to have some other meaning in the eyes of the guests who came to express their condolences. The patriarch and his wife stood aside to entertain the guests, looking awkward and distressed.
But he couldn't walk, he could only stand in place like a log.
Guests looked at them like thin needles.
Everyone thought it was Qiu Dalang's trick to kill someone with a knife, and they were secretly frightened by his ruthlessness, and lamented that the brothers in the family had no true feelings, and the trouble was so serious that it was life and death. During this quarrel, apart from close friends, everyone else gradually alienated Qiu Shi.
Other gentry wives regard the patriarch's wives as snakes and scorpions.
And the culprit who manipulated all this?
The social animal has entered 007 from 996.
Because there is a war plan for the coming year, Shen Tang and her team can't be free at all. Household registration, land, population... which one is not a big project? I can't wait to use the twelve o'clock as the twenty-four o'clock. Not to mention young people, even an old Physician Dong led a group of disciples, and came all day and night.
"Shen Jun wants to have a national physical examination in Sibao County?" Dr. Dong is one of the few people who knows the real purpose behind the physical examination. After the first experience, he will be familiar with it the second time.
"Um."
Mr. Dong did not quite agree. They are too short of manpower, and they have to prepare for war and rebuild, so the "medical examination" matter can be postponed. Anyway, the situation in Sibao County has stabilized, and it is cold winter now, and the mobility of the common people is not great.
The left and right people can't run away, so it's okay to wait.
"I can't wait." Shen Tang's voice was gentle but with firmness that could not be opposed, "Miao Shu's matter can be less or less."
Shen Tang never thought that all female literary scholars/warrior warriors would be loyal to her, which is unrealistic. It is a personal choice to whom one will devote one's allegiance to and to pursue one's path. She hoped that even if one of them became an opponent in the future, they could get the most basic respect, instead of becoming someone's forbidden or dispensable plaything.
They are originally pearls, and they should shine brightly.
Together is a ball of fire, and to disperse is a sky full of stars.
Old doctor Dong had no choice but to agree.
but-
"Shen Jun, that man..."
Shen Tang threw Luan Xin over.
At any rate, he is the number one counselor under Qiu Cheng's account, omnipotent.
Luan Xin wondered: "But the cotton side..."
Shen Tang: "There is Ling De guarding the gate over there."
No matter how water-scarce Sibao County is, there is still enough water to plant a few acres of cotton, and there is no need for Luan Xin to use artificial rainfall for the time being. In other words, Luan Xin could take care of the government affairs of Hucao's office and at the same time take care of Old Doctor Dong's work.
Looking at the lord with a natural look on his face, Luan Xin suppressed his emotions, and said tactfully: "The affairs are trivial, I'm afraid I can't take care of them at the same time." Has the lord calculated the workload? ? ?
Shen Tang painted cakes: "Justice, I believe you can do it!"
Luan Xin: "???"
If it wasn't for self-cultivation, I really want to ask "I can do a fart"!
_(:з」∠)_
As long as they are under Tangmei's hands, no Wenxin scholar can escape the squeeze...
After all, a literary scholar who can work is a good servant.
