Chapter 139 Gusu Tang Family
"Although my Tang family is in Gusu, Gusu's surname is not Tang, which is different from Cui's family in Qinghe." In the carriage, Tang Buqi leaned on the arms of the little maid and tasted wine leisurely, and briefly introduced the situation of Gusu to Zhao Changhe: " My Tang family is not a top-notch family like the Cui family, so it's hard to compare, I suggest you keep an eye on Cui Yuanyang, ah, don't think about anything else."

Zhao Changhe was very speechless leaning against the wall, one was leaning on the maid and the other was leaning against the wall. He was already upset, but this made him even more upset: "Introduce Gusu, introduce Gusu, what are you doing with the Cui family?"

Tang Buqi was quite comfortable: "Isn't this convenient for you to make an intuitive comparison?"

"I don't need you to compare. Everyone has heard of what Qinghe Cui said. Has anyone heard of Gusu Tang? Caiji seems very proud."

"...The Tang family is at least a famous family in the current dynasty! It has the merits of being a dragon! How could others have never heard of it? Who are the bandits in Beimang talking about?"

"I think if it wasn't for Tang Wanzhuang, the top three rankings at a young age, and the first rank in the dynasty, this family can be supported... If they are all like you... Heck, in the future, the top swallows of the Tang family hall will fly in. A bandit house is not unimaginable..."

Tang Buqi glared angrily: "Every family has people who focus on reading, and they don't rely on martial arts to rule the country!"

"Really? Why did your aunt rush to break through so much that she hurt her lung meridian? I suggest you guys think about it. Don't take advantage of other people's desperate efforts to lean on the little maid and eat grapes leisurely. drink her blood."

Tang Buqi was startled, his anger gradually disappeared, he stared at the wine in a daze and stopped talking.

Zhao Changhe squinted at him for a long while, and finally didn't say much, and turned to the main topic: "So there are many big and small families in Gusu, right? The Tang family should be regarded as the leader in the local area because of their position as the head of the town magic department."

"……good."

"By the way, is there Gusu Murong? I think they are more famous than the Tang family."

"I haven't heard of it, how did you hear these messy things?"

"Do you have any clues about the place that is suspected to be evil? Is it Tiger Hill Sword Pool?"

Tang Buqi was a little surprised: "Hey, where do you know Gusu? Haven't you been in the north all your life?"

"Hmm, is that right?"

"Take a hammer! Huqiu Sword Pool is on the mountain behind my house!"

Zhao Changhe: "Grass."

"But having said that, a long time ago, oh, let's say that in the last era, there was indeed a problem with the evil spirit of Huqiu Sword Pool, and there may be evil swords hidden in it. But my family has already circled this place, and generations before and after have put it here. I can feel it clearly, and there is nothing, so what I said this time should have nothing to do with it.”

Zhao Changhe rubbed his chin in thought, maybe it might not be irrelevant, judging from Gu Jianhu's previous experience, maybe there is a dungeon, it's just that a group of strong people in your family are patrolling and the dungeon is closed.

"Are there any rumors of ghosts in your family? Who has been attacked by evil spirits? Could it even be related to your aunt's illness?"

"I know what you think...but unfortunately, no. My aunt's illness fell in the capital last year, not at home."

"..." Zhao Changhe still feels that possibility exists. According to current experience, the rumors related to the "Last Era" are beyond the understanding of low-level martial arts people in the current world. It is normal for them to be confused.

Of course, this is only a possibility, not a fact, and we still have to go to Gusu to explore the details.

"What about other rumors? How did Fa Yuan judge that the thing is more likely to be in Gusu?"

"How do I know what Fa Yuan bases his judgment on? I haven't finished writing the reply."

During the discussion, the little maid who had been feeding wine and grapes to Tang Buqi hesitated and said, "Before I went out, there were rumors that someone suddenly went berserk and hacked people in the market in the south of the city, and was shot dead on the spot by the passing Lu family master. At first I thought it was a random incident, but then Young Master Lu also suddenly went crazy, and people said he was insane. Then we went out, and we don't know what happened next."

Tang Buqi was stunned: "Young master of the Lu family, is it Lu Shaoxiong? This fellow still has friendship with me, why haven't I heard of it?"

The maid glanced at him cautiously: "At that time, young master, you were drunk for five days in Xunhua Lane, and young mistress was crying at home... When you came back, you were scolded by the master, so you were kicked out to practice."

Tang Buqi's face turned into a pig's liver.

Zhao Changhe turned his head to look out the car window.

There is no more words along the way, the chat has been killed.

Originally, it was just an incident of slashing people and going crazy, but it was commonplace and didn't mean anything.But since the two incidents are related, and it is against the background that the Maitreya Sect is looking for this evil place, it is worth exploring.

…………

It is not far from Yangzhou to Gusu, and the group speeded up and arrived soon.

But I feel that the closer to Gusu, the less weird atmosphere of Maitreya teaching. I have never seen any scenes of worshiping Buddha and Maitreya, and I have never heard people talking about "Buddha" and "Bodhisattva" everywhere I go.

There are temples, but it is also very deserted.

It seems that even if the Maitreya religion is spread all over the south of the Yangtze River, at least in Gusu, the stronghold of Tang Wanzhuang, they still dare not bubbling easily. Even if there are, they are developing and infiltrating secretly.

But Zhao Changhe still intuitively felt that the Maitreya Sect would not wait for everything to be ready.

The change in Yangzhou must have dealt a huge blow to the Maitreya Sect. The list and various information obtained by the search followed the vines. The development of the Maitreya Sect for many years near Yangzhou may be in vain in a short time.Most likely, the leader Maitreya will not sit back and watch this situation continue, and there is a great possibility to activate it in advance.

During the Yangzhou Incident, Maitreya was looking for the treasure of evil spirit in Jinling. He didn't know what happened, but now he must know, and there is a high probability that he has returned to the main altar to prepare for operation.The opportunity to launch it might be the information connection after Chili returned. Once the Hu people go south, the Jiangnan Maitreya Sect will definitely make trouble.

This is a deduction on the surface.

During this process, the Maitreya Sect will definitely not let go of Gusu, a pure land surrounded by the south of the Yangtze River but not invaded by the Maitreya Sect, and must take action.If no corresponding precautions were taken, the tragedy of the Tang family might come suddenly.

Gusu at this moment is likely to be the last peace.

I don't know if Tang Wanzhuang will think about this after receiving the report from Yangzhou. Anyway, Tang Buqi doesn't seem to have thought about it, let alone the Tang family.

When we arrived at Tang's house, we couldn't even see the austere atmosphere that was about to come. The servants came and went, and when we walked in, we could hear the sound of silk and bamboo in the attic in the distance.
"The young master is back?"

"The young master went out hard... Oh, he's all tanned."

"I heard that the young master killed the barbarians, solved the assassination case of the magistrate, and thwarted the conspiracy of the Maitreya Sect in Yangzhou!"

"The young master really gave us a long face!"

If Zhao Changhe wasn't by his side, Tang Buqi would have held his head high and enjoyed the pursuit.But feeling Zhao Changhe's sideways squinting eyes that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, Tang Buqi just wanted to cover his face: "Okay, okay, there is nothing worth bragging about a little thing, the whole guest house, hello Hello my guest."

The servants looked at Zhao Changhe, knowing that this was Qianlong 38, stronger than everyone present, but there was a slight invisible contempt in their eyes.

The young master is really capable of hanging out with anyone. I used to suspect that a certain old beggar was a peerless master, and even invited someone to come to his house to ask his relatives. In the end, it was confirmed that he was the real old beggar, which made the master very angry.This time with another gangster...

Of course, he didn't dare to show this attitude in front of Tang Buqi, the young master can beat people if he throws a splash.

Then a housekeeper nodded and bowed: "Mr. Zhao, please come with me. You are in the quiet guest house. Mr. Bao is satisfied."

Zhao Changhe took in all the expressions of the people and smiled slightly.

Aristocratic family...the family maintained by Tang Wanzhuang.

He didn't bother to care about these things, he just said: "It's fine to live in whatever you want, it's serious to watch over my horse, and then someone will take me to the back mountain. I want to see the Tiger Hill Sword Pond first."
