Chapter 155 - Fresh seafood with bad taste
Everything Xiang Shaolong said was just a guess, and there was no evidence at all. In the moment that he was fighting with Sun Sanhu's inner strength, Dragon Lord was exceptionally sensitive to the fact that this manager's skills were extremely strange.
”During my years of learning in the Wu Dang Mountain, I once heard Master say that there was a martial arts sect in the Sichuan Tibetan region that was taught by the Lamaism. It was very mysterious, and ordinary people would not easily see it. ”This faction has always regarded protecting the sect as their responsibility and does not easily interfere in the affairs of the people. The hidden strength in this manager's hand is extremely similar to what my teacher described …”
[There is another mystery. There is a secret legend in the mouths of the martial arts people in the capital. They say that the royal family has a powerful force in their possession. They are very close with the Red Monastery in the capital …] ”However, the legends are just legends. No martial arts expert came into contact with them …”
At this time, the Qing San Ye became interested. He took over and said, ”In Beijing, there really are no secrets, especially to us Manchu, there are gossips all day long. However, although the things that these gossipers talk about are exaggerated, there are basically shadows …”
The protectors of the Red Sect mentioned by the Dragon Lord had actually always been around. The people who attacked Kang Xi had already followed the orders of the royal family, and at that time, the forces that went against the laws of nature were already very fierce. The royal family had organized all the protectors of the Red Sect in Tibet, and killed a lot of traitors in secret.
On one hand, the Great Qing Province is becoming more stable by the day, so their uses are becoming smaller and smaller. On the other hand, I think that Brother Xiao is talking about the power of technology, no matter how high their martial arts are, they are still afraid of Gun s … ”
The few of them huddled together and discussed for the time it took to make a cup of tea, but they did not manage to come up with anything ugly. In the end, even Xiao Letian's stomach growled.
”Didn't the Keeper Niu say they would treat us? Why are they all dispersing? Are they all going to invite him or not? ” Xiao Letian muttered.
”Waiting for a treat? When you made a ruckus on the dock, San Ye had already swung his fists, and everyone else had already left. There was no hope anymore … Oh right, didn't Jiao Si'er say that he had arranged a welcoming feast for you? You'd better go home and eat your own food! ” Fan Lian waved his hands and chased them out, while he hid in the accounts room to read the books to ease his boredom.
It had been a few days since they last bumped into the sea. Now, Xiao Letian wanted to safely eat a warm meal, then soak in a bath to relieve his fatigue. As for his work, he would just wait until he had had enough rest.
From the Tanggu City to the Xiao Family residence outside the city, the carriage only took a quarter of an hour to traverse the entire road. Before Xiao Letian left the Tanggu, this house had been in repair the entire time, and now it was so easy for people to live here. Moreover, he hadn't seen Hu Niu for a long time, so Xiao Letian still missed him a lot.
Just as Xiao Letian and the Qing San Ye arrived at the main gate, they heard the ruckus in the house. The few of them were so furious that they almost choked on their breaths.
”Five Chieftains …” BHC... Eight horses … If you lose, you will be punished with alcohol … ”Hahaha …”
”Old Ma, this grandpa doesn't accept you. If you have the guts, then trade for a big bowl …” ”Fine, fine. Who's afraid of you? Come, let's do it …”
”The dishes are here …” ”The scallion is my master's unique skill of burning the liaotong …”
There was not even a guard at the entrance. There were rowdy noises coming from the tables inside the pitch-black wooden door. The fragrance of food wafted through the gap of the door, and a few wild dogs stuck out their tongues, whimpering loudly around the big hole.
”Alright, alright, alright. I still haven't returned home, are they going to enjoy it now? This is really a good rule of the Great Mansion … ” With a gloomy face, Xiao Letian walked up the stairs and kicked a wild dog to the side.
The black lacquer door was pushed open forcefully by Xiao Letian, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that a few servants were drinking wine together inside the gatehouse. Looking at their flushed faces, he estimated that the banquet would take at least half an hour.
”Men, tie these bastards up for me, who wouldn't be obedient enough to give them a whipping …” With Xiao Letian's command, the bald guard rushed forward like a swarm of bees, and dragged the drunkard out with a ”ding dang dang dang” sound.
”Who …” Who dares to touch grandpa me... I … I … I … I am a servant of the Xiao family … ”Ugh!” The drunkards couldn't even speak properly, so they just let the cold wind blow and puke while holding onto one of the pillars.
Xiao Letian was so angry that he was about to go crazy, his own home had been taken over by these bastards, it was so f * cking disgusting. ”Hit him. Hit him with a whip. When he wakes up from the alcohol, tell him to eat everything he vomits …”
”Fuck you!” Xiao Letian saw that the other drunk cat in front of him had started to walk unsteadily and he kicked it.
At this time, the chef from the kitchen finally understood the situation. Compared to the description from before, he immediately understood that this must be the lord. The lord had returned.
”Old master is back …” The cook threw away the wooden tray and ran to the back instead of kowtowing, screaming all the way.
