Chapter 48

It was already evening when they arrived in Furong Town. Hong Xiguan and Xiao Peng walked into the gate of Furong Town with a few hares in their hands, while Hong Wending carried two pheasants in his hands and walked quietly. Followed by Hong Xiguan's side.

The officers and soldiers standing guard at the city gate didn't pay much attention to them. Usually there were many hunters coming in and out of Furong Town, but the gate officer looked at the game in their hands and touched the money bag with a look of excitement. Finally give up.

Officer Hong Xi led Xiao Peng and Hong Wending around to an alley, with the back doors of some houses on both sides of the alley.Looking along the alley one by one, Hong Xiguan finally saw a special mark near the back door of one of the houses. This mark seemed to be the traces caused by years of weathering on the walls, and only Tiandihui could recognize it. Only core people can understand this sign.

"Duk...duk...duk, duk..."

Officer Hong Xi stepped forward and knocked on the wooden door with a certain rhythm. After knocking three times, a calm voice came from inside the door, "Who is it?"

Hong Xiguan replied in a deep voice: "A plaster seller."

Inside the door: "What plaster are you selling?"

Hong Xiguan: "The ointment for detoxification and recovery of vision only needs to be applied for seven to 49 days, and the blind person can recover their sight."

Inside the door: "Oh? It's so amazing, how much does it cost?"

Hong Xiguan: "It's a bit expensive, three taels of gold and three taels of silver."

Inside the door: "Can you sell five taels of gold and five taels of silver?"

Hong Xiguan: "Oh? Why do you pay so much?"

Inside the door: "Not much, not much, as long as I can regain my understanding, I'm willing to do your best for you."

Hong Xiguan: "The earth shakes Gaogang, and the streams and mountains are beautiful through the ages."

Inside the door: "The door faces the sea, and the Sanhe River flows for thousands of years. Which brother is outside?"

Hong Xiguan: "Brother Yi asked me for my surname and first name. My family originally lived in Muyangcheng, Songbailin and Li Jinniang's mother, and my surname was Hong when I got married in Huating."

Just as Hong Xiguan finished speaking, there was a sudden commotion inside the door, "Senior Brother Hong, it's Brother Hong who is here."

"Open the door quickly."

Xiao Peng was stunned when he heard it beside him. What made him stunned was not the length and complexity of the secret language of Tiandihui, but the codeword... Isn't this the codeword that Wei Xiaobao said when he was meeting with the people of Tiandihui in Lu Dingji?He always thought it was Mr. Jin's nonsense?This... this... This shit is really lying down, but the poem Hong Xiguan read at the end is a bit interesting.

"crunch"

The wooden door was opened, and a tall and thin young man greeted him, and said softly, "Senior brother Hong, Wending, and this brother, please come inside quickly."

Official Hong Xi nodded to him, and he was not polite, and walked into the wooden door first. After Hong Wending and Xiao Peng also entered, the young man looked around and found no tail, so he closed the wooden door, and then went back to the backyard for a meal On the chair beside the ground, as for Hong Xiguan and the others, they were naturally greeted.

There were three young people standing in the courtyard at this time. Seeing Hong Xiguan coming in, they didn't say much, but just stretched out their hands to signal Hong Xiguan to come in and talk, but from the eyes of those young people looking at Hong Xiguan, it can be known that they He is full of reverence for Hong Xiguan.

"Senior Brother Hong, you are finally here."

"Senior Brother Hong, it's time to wait for you."

"..."

As soon as they entered the courtyard, several young people spoke in unison. Hong Xiguan patted them on the shoulder kindly, and said, "Are you all okay, brothers?"

"It's all good. We've been lurking here since the incident eight years ago. We haven't made any big moves, so we haven't been exposed. Brother Hong, what about you? Five years ago, I received a letter from Feige saying that you In Guide Mansion, why did you come to Kaifeng Mansion now?"

Hong Xiguan smiled wryly, and said: "Oh, I'm ashamed to say it, but I can't say enough! By the way, let me introduce a brother to you first. This is Xiao Peng, my sworn brother. Brother Xiao is originally a loyal and good brother, but a member of our Daming nation. The hero Yuan Chonghuan is a descendant of the soldiers under the command of the old general Yuan, and he is also a person with lofty ideals who is determined to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty. Thanks to Brother Xiao, I have a place to live with Wending in the past few years. It is a pity that I was accidentally returned by a The court hawks and dogs who were visiting relatives in the village recognized it and attracted officers and soldiers to encircle and suppress them, so they had to evacuate."

After listening to Officer Hong Xi's words, several people clasped their hands together and saluted Xiao Peng, "So it's Brother Xiao, sorry for your disrespect."

Xiao Peng returned a salute and said, "I've met some big brothers."

After the two parties met the ceremony, the young man who seemed to be the oldest said: "Senior brother Hong, we received a secret letter from the chief rudder a few days ago. How can I find you when I have a headache, I didn't expect you to come by yourself, it's just in time! Hehe."

"Oh? Where is the letter?" Officer Hong Xi asked with a solemn expression.

"For me, ever since I received the letter, I haven't dared to leave my body, and I've kept it in my arms!" The person who spoke took out a sealed envelope from his lapel, on which was written the words of Official Xi.

Officer Hong Xi did not shy away from a few people, directly opened the envelope, took out the letter to read, and after reading the letter, his face became very solemn, and he handed the letter to Xiao Peng, saying: "Third brother, take a look!"

Xiao Peng nodded, took the letter and read it. After several years of study, Xiao Peng can already understand traditional Chinese characters, so it is no problem to read the letter.As Xiao Peng expected, Chen Jinnan explained in the letter about the treasure map of the Ming Dynasty, and asked Hong Xiguan to meet the five juniors who had the treasure map tattooed on their backs, Hu Dedi, Ma Chaoxin, Cai Dezhong, Li Shikai, Fang Dahong, These five boys are the famous Shaolin Five Patriarchs in the Hongmen established by Hong Wending in the future.

In the letter, he asked Hong Xiguan to send the five minors to Honghuating in Niujiazhuang on New Year's Eve this year, so that Chen Jinnan can make up a treasure map and take out the treasure for the great cause of fighting against the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty.

After reading the letter, Xiao Peng couldn't help sighing again in his heart, the inertia and self-correction power of the plot was really not covered up, he thought his actions had already changed the plot, but he didn't expect to go around and go back and forth after all.

Returning the letter to Hong Xiguan, Hong Xiguan thought about it, and passed the letter to the three young people for reading.

Seeing this, Xiao Peng knew that there was no need to avoid these people. He frowned slightly and said, "Second brother, there are less than two months until the New Year's Eve, but we don't even know where the fifth child is." , how to meet? And I have to take care of the Fifth Elementary School, and meet Mr. Chen Zongruo, then I will definitely face off against the imperial court eagle dog, Wending... I am a little worried."

Officer Hong Xi took a look at Hong Wending, nodded, pondered for a while, and said, "I have an elder brother who lives at the foot of Songshan Mountain in Dengfeng. We can send Wending to him first, which happens to be closer to the Shaolin Temple. , we can go there to inquire about Wu Xiao’s news.”

Just as Hong Xiguan finished speaking, one of the three young men patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Senior Brother Hong! Although we are not good at martial arts, we can't help much, but we can still handle such small things as running errands and delivering letters. Now Senior brother, you have already exposed your whereabouts, so it is inevitable that the government will find out, it is better not to go out as much as possible, senior brother, please tell me your elder brother's address, I will deliver the letter, and make an appointment with him to meet, and then you will go secretly."

Officer Hong Xi thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's fine, then I'll leave it to you brother."

"Hehe, what did Senior Brother Hong say? During this period of time, you, Wen Ding and Brother Xiao can live here with peace of mind!"

Everyone has made up their minds, so they don't say any more. Official Hong Xi wrote a letter and handed it to the brother who volunteered to deliver the letter. After receiving the letter, the man set off overnight and rushed to Dengfeng.

Xiao Peng knew that the plot was about to officially begin.
