Book 34 - Chapter 1 – Old Affection Difficult To Break (1/2)
Xu Ziling went to see Kou Zhong at Hou Xibai’s secret hideout; the latter showed complicated expression on his face, his pair of eyebroas deeply creased
Struggling to raise his spirit, Kou Zhong asked, “Where is Lei Dage?”
Sitting down next to hi WenGan and Mada’s affair What happened to you?”
“A lot have been happening tofor Yun Shuai, ould have thought that I fell into the trap that Yang Xuyan carefully laid out? Fortunately he did not expect ht unprepared, I seized the upper hand, and I even ca briefly, he went on, “Yun Shuai wants to see Li shi+ive hie replied, “Since you did not leak your identity, why are you looking so pathetic like a defeated rooster?”
Kou Zhong sighed and said, “I just realized that I have to pay the price for the choice that Iis really hard to take Ay!”
Listening to hi about?” he asked
S nonsense, yet I cannot express it clearly, because the problem is not in the choice itself, but hu with emotions, that can be subjected to the complications because of said emotions, that further understood; frowning, he asked, “What happened between you and Shang Xiufang?”
“For now, nothing, only the tail re replied, “The problem is that she clearly indicated that she has a bit of interest toward , she is indeed very char Funu s to so about the countenance, re the countenance’ [Book 33 Chapter 4] ritten for Kou Zhong?
No one knew Kou Zhong better than Xu Ziling He was aon the first position
Of the four beautiful wo was love at first sight, but the outcoreat possibility that in the future they would beco Yuzhi, at first 70 was because he wanted to use her, 30 because he adrew
As for Yun Yuzhen and Dong Shuni, both of whom have had physical relationshi+p with him, with the latter, it was purely under hot-blooded lust and full-of-stie, put on a comedy (idiom)]; there was only desire without any love
With Yun Yuzhen, it was a lot , Yun Yuzhen was the aloof and re has not yet made his mark in the world In his mind, to be able to ‘own’ her represent his ascension to the subliher social class, which was soical achieve Yuzhi was extre upon hi andwas extre to him
In this kind of relationshi+p between a man and a woman – even as a brother, he found it very difficult to help
Seeing hi asked in surprise, “Why don’t you scoldresponded, “Even if I did, what’s the use? I told you not to be drawn into the contention over the world, but did you listen?”
“How could youprotested, “Ay! Let’s not talk about this kind of depressing thing for now Any good plan for today?”
Xu Ziling briefly explained the situation He said, “I believe the most important person that we should deal with is shi+ Zhixuan Meeting force with force, we do not stand toowith his pawn, the ‘Fat Merchant’ An Long, it is still possible to acco thatsaid, “We must make meticulous plan; one strike and we et another opportunity You have fought one-on-one against shi+ Zhixuan; in your esti overco his brows, Xu Ziling replied, “This is very difficult to tell If Yun Shuai and shi+ Zhixuan compete on ill arrive at certain destination first, perhaps Yun Shuai would be able to triu, shi+fting, her Coupled with his ae, we really cannot pin hi’s pair of eyes lit up, he said, “If it was on the plains and wilderness, won’t we have a good chance of killing hi said, “You’ll have to break his Ie Method first What about if the three of us joining hands against the Four Great Holy Monks? Why don’t you think about it?”
Dejected, Kou Zhong said, “Is there really no way to kill him? The problem is that the entrance to the treasure-trove is extremely likely located inside the Wu Lou Si’s Abbot’s room In that case, we’ll just have to try our luck Hopefully while we are trying to find it, he would not be in the Te said, “Since he is undercover and intentionally concealing his track, unless absolutely necessary, shi+ Zhixuan will not leave the te said with a wry sood luck has reached the end of its path; previously, even if the treasure-trove was hazy without any clear thread, ays had hopes But now our only clue leads us to shi+ Zhixuan’s old nest tiger cave Ay! I suddenly feel very tired! If only Niang made it clear that day, it would belooked up at the bea only e? If the treasure-trove is in the Wu Lou Si, she ought to say Wu Lou Si of Chang’an, and that should be enough”
Severely shaken, Kou Zhong said, “Make sense! This is called we are ‘catching the wrong expression’; the question is, where?”
The refined light in Xu Ziling’s eyes flared out brightly; he looked at Kou Zhong, the two boys’ gazesa deep breath, Kou Zhong said, “We are so stupid! We only swae, but did not search the Yue Ma Bridge thoroughly”
Xu Ziling said, “The most important point is: if the entrance to the treasure-trove is inside the Wu Lou Si Abbot’s rooet in”
Kou Zhong nodded his agreement But he was still puzzled, “But how come Wu Lou Si has Lu Dashi+’s architectural style?”
Xu Ziling sighed and said, “Perhaps I misinterpret what I saw! No! I can’t possiblyinterlocking wooden brackets between the top of a coluinal painting There is an explanation about it in the architectural book he left behind The decorative lines and patterns are of the sa’s spirit greatly aroused, he said, “Thinking too , ill take advantage of the dark to explore the bridge, we’ll search every brick and every stone It’s pointless to bother about anything else”
Pondering deeply, Xu Ziling said, “Don’t you think we are asking too much? You have just exposed your identity Based on Li Yuanji’s nature, he is eager to win and keen to render meritorious service, certainly he will use thousand ways, a hundred plans to capture us, yet we still want to – openly and without fear – kill An Long?”
Kou Zhong said, “This is called seeking victory in the er; with enerasp the initiative, we could only crane our neck waiting to be chopped Right now our best sche is harmed by Yin Gui Pai people; otherwise, how else can we deceive shi+ Zhixuan, this big crafty scoundrel?”
S said, “Unless you know Tian Mo Da Fa, and when you are , how could you shi+ft the blame onto the Eastern Wu?”
This mo WenGan is really crafty”
Hearing that, the two boys were greatly delighted; busily they poured tea and handed the water, and waited upon hi, Lei Jiuzhi asked, “Do you re nodded and said, “He is Jingzhao Lian’s Fu Lianzhu [vice alliance ’s salt goods, and was injured byNong Bang’shis movements secretly, they finally discovered that there is a batch of salt shi+p, and was received by Gu Tianzhang of Guang Sheng Xing, which was then shi+pped into Guanzhong”
Guang Sheng Xing was Xing Chang Long’s archene with this batch of salt shi+pment?”
Lei Jiuzhi said, “Of course it’s a fake salt shi+pment Hidden inside are arrows and darts Theybows and arrows separately”
Xu Ziling asked, “Whatmen suspicious?”
Lei Jiuzhi replied, “Because Gu Tianzhang personally went to Hong Nong to supervise the handing over the goods That was the reason Hong Nong Bang thought there is so said, “Where in Guanzhong will this shi+pment be delivered to?”
Lei Jiuzhi said, “After entering the Pass, they lost track, because all along, this is not their territory In Hong Nong, Hong Nong Bang possesses great s and society hom they have friendly relationshi+p Because they are afraid to beat the grass to scare the snake, Chen shi+ did not dare to ask other people to help”
Chen shi+ was Hong Nong Bang’s Gang Leader [in Book 30 Chapter 6, it was Sheng Nanfu]
