Longevity starts from strengthening internal organs

Chapter 364 The ink sea makes waves
"Husband, why are you so happy?"

Following the voice, a beautiful woman appeared from behind the screen. She was Gui Heshu's original wife and Gui Xuanqing's biological mother, Gui Zhang.

Gui Zhang is already 40 years old this year, but due to proper maintenance, she looks like a woman in her 30s or [-]s, with a touch of charm in her grace.

As soon as he saw Gui Zhang, Gui Heshu couldn't help but become more excited.

"Junzhu, look quickly, there is a letter from your lord."

"Oh?" Mrs. Zhang Junzhu raised her eyebrows when she heard this. When she took the letter and looked at it, a deep joy appeared on her face.

"Great, I thought the adults didn't want to pay attention to us."

"How could it be possible? Your Excellency is not that kind of person. Didn't I say that he will come to our Mohai City in a few days?" Gui Heshu couldn't hide his excitement.

Zhang Junzhu nodded, "Husband, you have to be well prepared. Don't neglect me."

"Don't worry, I have already thought about it, and I will definitely satisfy you when the time comes." Gui Heshu said confidently.

Zhang Junzhu was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Has Brother Nangong left?"

The smile on Gui Heshu's face gradually faded, and he shook his head, "No."

Zhang Junzhu frowned, "What do these two brothers want to do? Why do they linger so long? Is there some ulterior motive?"

Gui Heshu sighed, "It shouldn't have reached that point yet."

"If not, why is it so abnormal? You must know that they have been here before, but they stayed for one night at most and then left. Why did they stay for several days this time?"

To be honest, Gui Heshu had already noticed something was wrong.

But Brother Nangong refused to leave, and he was too embarrassed to rush away, so he had no choice but to entertain them.

"Qing'er had a bad quarrel with Yanran from their Nangong family before, so that the exchanges between the two parties have become much less over the past year, but now she suddenly comes to visit, and she also brings a very generous gift. , this matter itself reveals something fishy." Zhang Junzhu frowned and continued in a deep voice.

Gui Heshu also realized the seriousness of the problem, but he still expressed relief.

"Madam, please rest assured. With just the strength of the Nangong family, they are still far from enough to touch our Mohai City."

"Husband, you are really confused. Is it the Nangong family that I'm worried about? What I'm worried about is what if they bring in other reinforcements?" Zhang Junzhu said helplessly.

In her opinion, her husband is good in every way. The only flaw is that he sometimes behaves very naively.

Therefore, many major decisions in this huge Mohai City are made by her. Gui Heshu is usually only responsible for daily affairs.

Gui Heshu looked solemn when he heard this, and after thinking for a moment, he slowly spoke.

"Madam is still thoughtful. I will inform the city guards now and ask them to take precautions in advance."

"No need, I have already notified them. They are now lying in ambush nearby. If there is any change, they will respond immediately." Zhang Junzhu said helplessly.

Gui Heshu chuckled, stretched out his hand and took Zhang Junzhu into his arms.

"Madam, thank you for your hard work."

Even though they have been married for many years, Zhang Junzhu still felt a little shy in broad daylight.

"Oh, what are you doing? Be careful of others seeing you."

"This is the back study. No one dares to come here without my order. Who can see it?" Gui Heshu said with a smile.

"That won't work either... Oops."

After a cry, calm returned to the back study.

But if you listen carefully, you can still hear the faint and thought-provoking abnormal noise.

And just as the couple was showing off their affection in the back house, in the front guest room, the Nangong brothers were having a secret conversation.

Nangong Buliang said with a solemn expression, "It's been three days, and I don't know when the people from Wanghai Tower will come."

Nangong Jialiang also said: "Yes, recently I feel that the way Gui Heshu looks at our two brothers has changed. Although he didn't say anything on the surface, there is no guarantee that he will not be suspicious in his heart."

"Okay, just be patient for a few more days. Once the people from Wanghai Tower arrive, there will be no use in doubting Gui Heshu."

"Hey, brother, tell me how much profit we can share by then."

"It should be [-]% anyway."

"Are there so many?" Nangong's bright face showed sadness.
"Judging from Wanghailou's past domineering style, this time they have swallowed the fat piece of Mohai City, and there is nothing they can do to spit it out again."

Nangong Buliang was also said to be a little hesitant.

"Probably not. After all, without us brothers, Wanghailou wouldn't be able to grasp such accurate information, right? Such a large sect will never burn bridges..."

Later, Nangong Buliang's voice became softer and quieter as he spoke, because even he himself didn't believe this reason.

"Brother, what do you think we should do?" Nangong Buliang asked in a deep voice.

"Nothing else. We brothers can only make preparations in advance, and we can't place all our hopes on the grandsons of Wanghailou."

Speaking of this, Nangong Jialiang lowered his voice and said excitedly.

"Not only have I been drinking these past two days, but I also took the opportunity to go into the inner house with Gui Heshu and poke around. I found that the furnishings in the front were all mediocre and not worth much, but the road leading to the back house was very well built. It’s exquisite and well-guarded, so I guess all the good stuff should be in that back house.”

"As soon as the people from Wanghailou arrive and fight together, we won't go anywhere. We will go to the back house first to search for money. In this way, even if they Wanghailou really forgets their own interests, our brothers will not be considered a loss."

Upon hearing his brother's suggestion, Nangong Buliang's eyes lit up and he clapped his thighs excitedly.

"Brother, you are very thoughtful, and not only can you make money, I heard..."

A Yinxie smile appeared on Nangong Buliang's face, "Gui Heshu's wife is a well-known beauty. Although she is older now, her charm is still there."

"When the time comes, our two brothers will kidnap this bitch as well. Wouldn't that mean we have both people and money?"

Nangong Liang also smiled.

When it comes to lust, he is not inferior to his brother Nangong Buliang at all.

"When the time comes, if there's nothing else, I'll let you, brother, take the lead."

"Hahaha, good brother, but this girl is already in ruins, so it should be okay for us two to be together."

Then the two people started talking more and more openly.

At the same time, Pei Quan'an had no intention of thinking about that. He was staying in the room, waiting for the master's reply.

During this period, he rarely left the house, firstly to avoid being exposed, and secondly to wait for the arrival of the homing pigeon.

at last.

A very special sound of flapping wings came from the sky outside the window, and then Pei Quan'an couldn't wait to stick his head out.

really.

A gray dove hovers in the sky.

It was Wanghailou who was specially trained as a homing pigeon to deliver messages.

Pei Quan'an was delighted when he saw this and stretched out his hand to make a very special gesture.

In an instant, as if the gray homing pigeon had found a beacon, it flew down from the air and landed in Pei Quan'an's hand.

Pei Quan'an was even more delighted when he untied the letterhead from the pigeon's anklet and opened it.

Because it was clearly written on it, Zhen Juncheng and others had already gone down the mountain and were on their way to Mohai City. They would arrive in two days at most.

The hibernation these days has long made Pei Quan'an feel irritable. Now that he finally sees the light of day, how can he not be happy.

After feeding the homing pigeon some food and water, Pei Quan'an released it.

This time Pei Quan'an did not return with a letter, because the location and other matters had been clearly explained last time, so there is no need to repeat them at this time.

After the homing pigeon flew out from where Pei Quan'an lived, it passed through the front house and flew west.

But just as it flew to the edge of the back house, a silver bullet suddenly whizzed over and hit its wings directly.

With a thud, the pigeon fell from the air without even struggling.

Zhang Junzhu reached out to catch it. One look at the anklet and he knew that this was a homing pigeon specially bred to convey messages.Her expression was a little serious.

What she was most worried about really happened.

It is obvious that someone is communicating with the outside world through homing pigeons.

But there is no point in tracing who it is at this time.

However, the fullness of the wings of this homing pigeon shows the intention of breeding. This is obviously not something that ordinary sects can do.

Zhang Junzhu remained silent.

At this time, several fully armed warriors appeared around her.

"Mother, what's going on?" the leading warrior said solemnly.

Zhang Junzhu shook his head, "It's nothing, it's just that someone is contacting the outside."

"Do I need to wait for a thorough investigation?"

"No need, I'll know who it is after thinking about it." Zhang Junzhu sneered and then looked at these warriors.

"Is there anything unusual happening with Brother Nangong?"

"No, the two of them have been hiding in the house drinking. After drinking, they went to sleep. There was nothing unusual."

"Keep an eye on them. If there is any abnormality, shoot them without mercy." Zhang Junzhu said coldly.

"Yes!"

After the instructions, Zhang Junzhu was about to turn around and leave, but suddenly thought of something and added.

"And the group of people they brought must also be watched closely, and no one will be left behind when the time comes."

"clear."
-
On a road about two thousand miles away from Mohai City, a person was walking slowly.

It was midday, the hottest time of the day.

Even if there are trees shading the roadside, the scorching heat of midsummer is still not something ordinary people can resist.

No matter how poor they are, they will avoid going out as much as possible and find a shady place to rest.

So there was no one on the road, only this man was walking slowly.

This person was wearing clothes stained with various kinds of oil stains, and even his chest had been polished so shiny that it could be used as a mirror.

He has messy hair on his head, and his face looks dark at first glance, but when you take a closer look, you will find that the black is clearly the sludge accumulated from not washing for who knows how many days.

He was such a slovenly, even somewhat dirty middle-aged man, but his eyes would burst out with a captivating brilliance occasionally.

But most of the time his eyes were half-closed, as if he wasn't awake.

After walking for a while, a tea shed appeared not far ahead.

When the man slowly came to the tea shed, several people were already sitting inside, and a middle-aged old man was busy inside and outside with a big teapot.

Naturally, this kind of rural tea stall will not be like a big teahouse, with waiters and waiters coming to greet you.

If you want to drink tea, just find a stool and sit down.

Even if you don't want to drink a bowl of tea, you can just grab a ladle of cold water from the water vat next to the stove and drink it, and no one will care.

Of course, the man would not be reluctant to part with the tea money.

He went straight to find a stool that was blocked by the shade of a tree. After sitting down, the middle-aged old man came over to greet him.

"Guest officer, what would you like to order?"

The man didn't speak, he just pointed at the table next to him and made a gesture, which meant the same thing.

The middle-aged old man was stunned when he saw this, and immediately felt pity in his heart.

It was obvious that this sloppily dressed man was mute.

No wonder we were traveling in such a strong sun.

The old man nodded repeatedly, "Okay, just wait a moment and I'll be here soon."

As he spoke, he first poured the man a bowl of sour plum soup to relieve the heat.

Naturally, this kind of small tea stall can't afford ice, but this sour plum soup is made in a well, and it tastes refreshing and refreshing, which is very delicious in this hot weather.

The man slowly drank the sour plum soup. After a while, the old man had everything on the table.

A plate of sliced ​​pickled eggs, a plate of dried beans, and a plate of cold vegetables mixed with wild vegetables.

Although the dishes are very simple, there is something special about sitting under the cool breeze and eating side dishes full of rustic charm.

The men also enjoyed eating.

But at this moment, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the distant mountains and forests.

Immediately afterwards, there was a sound of branches and leaves, and then a group of people appeared on the official road.

The dressing of this group of people is much more impressive.

The leader is even more impressive, and he looks like someone who has been in a high position for a long time.

The group of people soon arrived at the tea stall.

The middle-aged old man has been in contact with idle people in the countryside all year round. He has never seen such a person before, so he was so frightened that he could not speak.

The group of people ignored him and glanced around the tea shed, and then someone said to the leader.

"Elder Zhen, this place is in a remote place. This is the only tea stall nearby, but the conditions are not that good. Why don't you take a few steps forward?"

The leader was none other than Zhen Juncheng.

I saw him shaking his head.

"Forget it, I haven't had a proper rest since morning, and the sun is so harsh, so it would be good to rest at this small tea stall."

Then he said to the frightened middle-aged old man.

"Don't be alarmed. We are all passers-by. Let us use your place to rest for a while. I will give you more tea money when the time comes."

The middle-aged man didn't dare to say anything, he just nodded his head.

The crowd surrounded Zhen Juncheng as if they were holding the moon, and entered the tea shed.

Some tea guests were frightened by the momentum of Zhen Juncheng and others and had already hid aside.

The timid one dropped the tea money and left quickly.

After Zhen Juncheng and others sat down, the middle-aged old man asked tremblingly.

"How many...what do you want to order?"

Zhen Juncheng glanced around the tea shed, and when he saw the "mute" man not far from him, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

Why is this man so embarrassed?

However, he still suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and said calmly: "Here are two side dishes, some tea soup to relieve the heat."

"Yes!"

The middle-aged man hurried down to get busy.

From the beginning to the end, the man did not raise his head and continued to concentrate on chewing dried beans.

But Zhen Juncheng didn't know that when he looked at the man just now, the man's hand was already secretly clasped on the machine spring.

As long as you press it, even if Zhen Juncheng is lucky enough to survive, he will still have to peel off his skin.
