Chapter 250
"Master Zong Xin, your eyes are very unscrupulous... You don't think you want to kill Wang Pu and his wife to silence you." Guo Wei asked in a low voice, but his voice was heard by Wang Pu and other people. After all, the night is quiet, No matter how small the voice is, it will be heard, and Guo Wei did not deliberately use internal force to lower the voice.
The most embarrassing ones were Wang Pu and his wife, because Wang Pu really wanted to slap himself twice, so what's the point of showing off?He thought he could show off his intelligence by guessing their identities, but in the end he was going to be silenced. If he had known this, he would have pretended not to know anything.
Zong said: "Master Guo, why do you think the poor monk has such thoughts?"
"Because Guo is thinking the same thing."
The two turned their heads to stare at Wang Pu and his wife at the same time, and they immediately knelt down in fright. Guo Wei and Zong Xin are both contemporary figures, and their martial arts are even more legendary. Let alone Wang Pu, an ordinary person, even the whole village All the men together are not their opponents.
"Master Guo, forgive me, Master Zongxin, I swear to God that I will never reveal your whereabouts, we are good people~"
Zong Xin nodded and said: "I know you are good people, so how about doing the poor monk a favor and going to the Western Paradise to greet the Buddha for the poor monk?"
"Master Zong Xin, please forgive me~ My husband and wife are just ordinary farmers, and I have not done anything wrong to anyone. Villains treat each other with courtesy, you can't repay kindness with grievances."
"It's just a joke, don't take it too seriously." Zong said: "Wang Pu, I see that you have a strange face. You are definitely not something in the pool. You must be a great person in the future. Mr. Guo, anyway, you are about to If you want to rebel and proclaim yourself emperor, you must have a few trustworthy people around you, so it might be useful to take Wang Pu and his wife to Chang'an together."
Guo Wei nodded, Zong Xin's way of doing this is not bad.Wang Pu and his wife are simple family members who rarely come into contact with the intrigues in the bustling city. Even if such people are incompetent, they will not cause too much trouble, and the biggest advantage is that they will work hard without complaint.
Secondly, Zong Xin was also really worried that the couple would report to the officials and not let others know that they did not return to Tongguan, but went to Chang'an to move troops. If Liu Chengyou sent troops to Chang'an Road to intercept them first, it would have a great impact at that time.What's more, they were already being chased and killed, and it was not easy for them to cause problems.
Wang Pu and his wife are stupid, what is all this about?Even if they disagreed, they were taken away by others, and they were not allowed not to go.
Wang Pu's mind was quite flexible, he knew that Zong Xin had to follow after he spoke, even if he was a servant, he must never leave their side.The reason is very simple, because these two people are murderous, they are afraid to report to the officials, but they don't want to repay kindness with grievances, and they can only feel at ease if they bring themselves by their side.
Guo Wei said: "That's fine, everyone in the Guo Mansion has been poisoned and needs someone to take care of them along the way. Wang Pu and his wife, are you willing to take care of the family on behalf of the old man?"
"Yes, yes." Wang Pu and his wife did not dare to get up, and they immediately agreed when they heard Guo Wei's question.I'm afraid that Guo Wei will go back on his word, because as long as Guo Wei doesn't take them with him, he will definitely kill them to silence them.In this kind of small village, it's not a big deal for two martial arts masters to kill each other. What's more, people are often dead here recently, and even the neighbors don't have time to talk to each other.
"Well, let's stay for one night and we will leave tomorrow. You can just bring some luggage with you, and you don't need to bring money. Guo did not have less money before going out." Guo Wei knew that the journey would not be easy, so he brought some money with him. Although he is a clean and honest official, he is the general of the world's soldiers and horses after all, and there are still some silver deposits in Guo's mansion.
"Thank you Master Guo for not killing me."
Wang Pu and his wife knew that they had survived, and it was actually good to be by Guo Wei's side. There is nothing else to do in the current life except farming and carrying water every day.Although Wang Pu didn't study any books when he was a child, he was very smart and cared about his family and country. It would be great if he could follow Guo Wei to make a big career.
This is a good opportunity for Wang Pu, the so-called seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister.Wang Pu did not expect to be an official, but it would be good to accompany Guo Wei and occasionally give him an idea. Helping Guo Wei was equivalent to helping the entire country.
Although Zong Xin said just now that Guo Wei was going to rebel and proclaim himself emperor... Maybe the next dynasty will not be a great Han Dynasty.But Wang Pu is still willing to follow Guo Wei, as long as he doesn't betray him, maybe he will be reused in the future.
A group of people went back to their rooms to sleep. Wang Pu and his wife were both happy and worried. They couldn't fall asleep after preparing for the night at home.But after figuring it out, I feel a little bit better. Following Guo Wei may not be a bad thing, and it may even be a good thing.
Early the next morning, the group left the village and headed west.Zong Xin asked Zeshui Beast to bite the fingers of Yang Shu, Le An, and Guo Tong respectively, so as to suck the poison out of their bodies.The swamp beast is a highly poisonous thing, and this trivial matter is not difficult for it. The only shortcoming is that the swamp beast is still too small, and it can only suck a small part of the poisonous blood each time.
This matter is not a long-term solution. If you want to detoxify, you must have Liu Chengyou's antidote.Perhaps Yao Chi can also cure this poison, but I don't know if they can last until then.Although there is no poisonous hair yet, and the water beast's continuous sucking of poisonous blood can prolong the time of poisonous hair, but no one can guarantee it.
It was much easier to have two locals lead the way. Wang Pu and his wife were enthusiastic people and took good care of them.When Guo Tong was tired from walking, Wang Pu offered to carry him on his back.This time Zong Xin and Guo Wei were discussing major issues. Although they didn't understand much, Wang Pu was quite interested.
Soon a group of people came to Yongxing, where Zhao Siwan used to be the governor of Yongxing. There are heavy soldiers here, but these soldiers have been taken over by Lei Hong, and now they belong to the sphere of influence of King Lei's Mansion.
As soon as he arrived outside the city gate, a group of officers and soldiers was greeted from outside. The leader was a big fat man.Guo Wei and Zong Xin immediately recognized that the fat man was Lei Hong.
Lei Hong took a few steps forward and cupped his hands and said, "I don't know if Mr. Guo's visit is too far to welcome the atonement."
"King Kaiqi is too polite, Mr. Guo is now a fugitive, so what kind of adult is he?"
Lei Hong smiled and said: "That's right, I should change my mind soon. This king has already prepared a banquet to welcome Mr. Guo and Master Zong Xin, please."
"Please."
Everyone's hearts were relieved, especially Zong Xin, because he had reached his own territory.All the forces in King Lei's Mansion belong to Zong Xin's territory, but no one knows it.
The whole group was busy with travel and dust, Lei Hong first arranged for them to take a shower and change clothes. After changing the clothes, everyone sat on a pile of exquisite banquets, and Wang Pu and his wife also sat together.In fact, they are not qualified to sit at the same table with people like Guo Wei and Lei Hong, but Zong Xin deliberately gave Lei Hong a wink to make him look at them.
Lei Hong raised his glass and said: "First of all, congratulations to Mr. Guo for escaping Kaifeng with his family. This matter has been widely spread all over the world. Everyone knows that it was Master Zong Xin who cast a spell to make you fly out of Kaifeng all day. I am very envious. I am so alive. I haven’t flown for many years. I would like to offer you a toast.”
"Thanks to Zongxin's rescue, otherwise Guo's family would have died in Kaifeng. Let's respect Master Zongxin." Guo Wei and Lei Hong toasted Zongxin at the same time.
Zong Xin was not polite, he picked up his cup and drank it down.Then he said: "Lord Lei will invite all officials, big and small, in the sphere of influence to gather in Chang'an, and choose a day to raise the flag to rebel and overthrow the big man. The poor monk has already arranged people to go to the Song Clan and Zhao Clan to let them respond. I believe Liu Chengyou's army at this time We have reached Tongguan, we need to hurry up."
Everyone was afraid, Zong Xin's tone of talking to Lei Hong was too arrogant.It was as if he was ordering Lei Hong to do this. As for whether Lei Hong would accept it or not, it was another matter. Anyway, talking to Lei Hong in this tone was basically a dead end.
Lei Hong's face darkened, and Guo Wei was ready to use his skills to block Zong Xin's next move.Lei Hong's skills are so high that Guo Wei thinks he is no match for him.But if he dared to kill Zong Xin, he would still fight him desperately.
But Guo Wei is really depressed, already at this point, why does Zong Xin want to provoke Lei Hong?Do you speak in a softer tone?
"This...it's really fast." Lei Hong said: "Actually, I have issued the Night King Order long ago, ordering all officials to gather peace in Chang'an, but this is the problem. Why do they support Guo Wei as king? And who will do it?" Open this mouth?"
"Of course it is the poor monk who speaks. As for how to behave, the poor monk has his own way." Zong Xin said with a smile: "As expected of King Kaiju, he is quite smart. He actually knew that we would come to Yongxing and had already summoned the officials."
"Of course, the tiger father has no dogs." Lei Hong said with a smile: "When I heard that you flew out of Kaifeng, I almost killed the person who reported the letter. This is simply nonsense. But carefully Think, there is nothing in the world that you can’t do? So I reluctantly believe it. I guess you will not be so stupid as to go back to Tongguan after leaving Kaifeng. If you don’t go to Tongguan, you can only come to Chang’an to find me, because you can’t believe it. Zhao Jing and Song Yan, Yongxing is the only way to go, so I waited for you here for a few days."
Guo Wei said in admiration, "Mr. Lei, what is the situation in Tongguan?"
Lei Hong said with a smile: "Chai Rong had already led troops into Tongguan, and there were not many casualties. That battle was really wonderful. Zhao Kuangyin and I killed the messengers first, and Li Shouzhen went out of the city to demolish the fortress. Chai Rong didn't send troops to encircle and suppress Li Shouzhen. He chose to attack the city directly, and only let some troops contain Li Shouzhen. It was dark at that time, and Li Shouzhen led the troops himself to promote the soldiers, but he didn't notice the changes in the rear. By the time he reacted, we had already attacked the city. We took down Tongguan. This king only took a small sneak attack, Li Shouzhen and Zhao Siwan were seriously injured, and things will be much easier after that."
Guo Wei and Zong Xin were very surprised. They didn't expect Chai Rong to be so decisive. Instead of sending people to encircle and suppress Li Shouzhen, he chose to attack the city instead.It may seem like a risky move, but it's actually not risky at all.The fort that Li Shouzhen forcibly demolished was just a tofu project, so there was no need to send troops to guard it. As long as Li Shouzhen's troops were restrained, it would be the most correct choice for the army to attack the city in one fell swoop.
It wasn't until this time that Guo Wei and Zong Xin thought that Chai Rong had the appearance of commanding the world.Before that, although Chai Rong's performance was excellent, he was just a talent and not a genius.This battle opened everyone's eyes.
