Zongwu: The Days of Mixing in the Tongfu Inn

Chapter 132 Unexpected Visitor (Two Chapters in One)

After listening to Zhang Chen's suggestion, Nie Ziyi thought about it carefully, and said, "I didn't find anything abnormal about him in the medical clinic. It seems that he is already prepared in his heart."

"I've just entered the clinic too, so it's better to be careful. After finding out the specific situation, let's see what Chen Muchan does."

Zhang Chen nodded. Since Nie Ziyi had made a rough plan for the future actions, he would not do it for him. After all, this was their Jin Yiwei's action.

If you intervene too much, it will arouse the other party's disgust, and then the two chatted for a while about the list in Chen Muchan's hands. The evening wind picked up outside the house, and the two left the roof of the inn.

Early the next morning.

Zhang Chen came out of the room with a sigh of relief. Before he went downstairs, he heard the sound of heated discussion from downstairs.

Zhang Chen squinted his eyes, put his hands on the handrails of the stairs, looked at the few people arguing in the hall, and shouted helplessly: "What are you arguing about this early in the morning? Don't you usually sleep in?"

The people arguing downstairs raised their heads after hearing Zhang Chen's voice, and saw Zhang Chen dozing off upstairs.

Bai Zhantang waved to Zhang Chen and asked him to come down. After Zhang Chen walked to the lobby, he said, "Did you wake up?"

At this moment, Zhang Chen saw three strangers dressed as sects in the lobby. After hearing Bai Zhantang's inquiry, he continued, "It's so noisy outside, how could I possibly be able to sleep? Who are these?"

Seeing Zhang Chen's questioning expression, the three of them clasped their fists together and said, "At the lower Hengshan Mountain, Lu Yiming, next to him is Junior Brother Zhou Dunru, and behind him is Junior Brother Zhu Xiaoyun."

After Lu Yiming finished his introduction, the other two also saluted one after another.

Seeing the three saluting so solemnly, Zhang Chen hurriedly returned the salute.

After getting to know each other for a while, Zhang Chen stretched out his hand to invite the three of them to sit down and wait for a while, then hurriedly dragged Bai Zhantang to a corner and asked, "Are they here for Xiaobei?"

Bai Zhantang nodded when he heard the words, and explained: "They came here early in the morning, and they started arguing in the lobby before they said a few words."

Speaking of this, Bai Zhantang pointed to Tong Xiangyu's room upstairs and said, "If Xiangyu hadn't made an appointment with Chen Anan to go to Shibalipu this morning, she would have met these people."

No wonder the shopkeeper hadn't been woken up by such a loud noise. Zhang Chen thought Tong Xiangyu was in a deep sleep, but it turned out he wasn't in the room!
After knowing the identities of these three people, Zhang Chen no longer worried. He knew that these people would not be able to take Xiao Bei away, and the situation of the Hengshan School still did not seem to improve.

Otherwise, given the importance Mo Xiaobei attached to the Hengshan faction, these three people would definitely not have come. Since these three people still came, it can only explain one thing, the internal fighting of the Hengshan faction still happened.

This time Hengshan sent a few people to come to pick Xiaobei up and leave, and it is very likely that they want to use Xiaobei's status as the heir of Xiaobei's direct line to completely end the internal strife in Hengshan.

Zhang Chen had read this information at Six Gates long ago, but he didn’t expect that the Hengshan faction still wanted Mo Xiaobei to go back. Thinking of this, Zhang Chen looked at Bai Zhantang and asked in a low voice, “Where is Xiaobei? I went with the shopkeeper too.” Eighteen Mile Shop?"

Bai Zhantang gave Zhang Chen an affirmative look. Usually, Xiao Bei didn't intend to get up this early, but this time Tong Xiangyu was going to Shibalipu Xiao Bei was very positive.

Xiao Bei slept with Tong Xiangyu last night, and got up early today, and the two of them took Chen An'an to Shibalipu.

The two discussed for a while, but there was no good solution. Zhang Chen knew that the final result was that Xiaobei did not leave, but he couldn't say it directly. After all, this is the head of his sect. Stop people.

Zhang Chen turned his head to look at the three people sitting quietly at the long table, thought for a while before saying: "Let them stay here for now. Since the shopkeeper is not here, we can't make decisions. Let's wait for the shopkeeper to come back."

This is a good way, Bai Zhantang nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, the two came to the three of them with smiles, and Zhang Chen said:
"Because it must be because of Beckham's affairs."

When Lu Yiming saw Zhang Chen mentioning Xiaobei, he said, "That's exactly what happened. I want to meet the master."

Bai Zhantang said in surprise, "Master? You're not talking about Xiaobei, are you?"

Lu Yiming nodded affirmatively, and then said: "That's right, it's Mo Xiaobei. I'm going to let her take over as the head of the Hengshan School."

Zhang Chen knew their thoughts a long time ago, so he was not surprised, but said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid it's not such a simple matter for you to want Xiaobei to take over as the head. Anyway, she is just a child now." "

The three of them sighed when they heard the words, and then that Junior Brother Zhou said:
"If it wasn't for nothing, we wouldn't bother the head of Mo, but whoever made her the last blood of the Mo family in Hengshan, and only he can end this endless internal strife"

Speaking of this, Junior Brother Zhou obviously became much sadder.

Seeing Junior Brother Zhou's attitude, Zhang Chen guessed that the infighting in Hengshan became more and more intense, which was the reason why they had to come here.

But the specific situation still needs to be explained clearly by the person concerned. After all, Hengshan is still too far away from Guanzhong, and the information cannot be delivered in time.

Lu Yiming saw that both of them had questioning expressions on their faces, so he had no choice but to explain the reason, "Since the death of Sect Leader Mo, Hengshan has been without a leader. Head back to preside over the overall situation"

Zhang Chen saw that Lu Yiming was talking lightly about Hengshan's situation, and said with a smile: "Let's save these words for our shopkeeper. The shopkeeper is not in the store now, why don't you stay here until the shopkeeper comes back?"

Although Bai Zhantang didn't know why Zhang Chen suddenly changed his style of speaking, he cooperated tacitly with Zhang Chen and said:
"Didn't I just say that the shopkeeper and Xiaobei went shopping at Shibalipu, and I'm not sure when I'll be back, why don't we stay here first?"

The three of them smiled awkwardly when they heard the words, and Lu Yiming discussed with Bai Zhantang and said:

"Is there a cheaper room? We have been traveling so much on this journey, so we don't have much money left."

Bai Zhantang didn't think about it, he smiled and said: "You are also Xiaobei's relatives, how can I ask you to pay the money, the shopkeeper will blame us at that time."

Hearing this, Lu Yiming said without embarrassment: "We still have to give the money, but can you get us some steamed buns first..."

Zhang Chen looked at the three people who were busy in the world, their faces did not have the ruddy complexion of martial arts practitioners, but they looked disheveled, and he knew that these three people in Hengshan still didn't have much money.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have spoken so unashamedly, he couldn't even bear to ask for some food and wine, and could only ask for a few steamed buns.

Just as Bai Zhantang wanted to say a few more polite words, Zhang Chen stepped forward and said first: "Just like what Brother Bai said, if the shopkeeper knew that you only eat steamed buns here, he would think that we are not good at greetings. I will let everyone Brother Zui will bring you some good wine and food, and it can be regarded as a cleansing for you."

The three of them clasped their fists together and saluted again. They didn't insist on just steamed buns. Zhang Chen had already given them a step. If they didn't continue, it would be because they didn't know what to do.

Afterwards, Bai Zhantang led several people to the upstairs guest room, and returned to the main hall after a while, asking curiously, "How many of them are here?"

Zhang Chen spread his hands and said, "It's not obvious, I'm out of money!"

When Bai Zhantang heard Zhang Chen's explanation, he couldn't help but said in surprise, "Hengshan faction is also one of the best in Jianghu, and their strength is not weak. How did they become like this?"

"Also, why didn't you continue to ask just now? It's obvious that the few of them still have something inside to say, otherwise how could Xiaobei, a child, be the head of the Hengshan School?"

Zhang Chen glanced at the room upstairs, and didn't answer Bai Zhantang's question first, but went to the backyard and asked Brother Big Mouth to prepare some meals first, and then helped to send them upstairs after they were done.

After completing these preparations, he went back to the lobby and explained: "Let's talk about your first question first. They are so poor, of course, because the Hengshan School is now only a shelf."

"Since Mo Xiaobao's death, the Hengshan faction has been divided and conflicted. The elders in the sect are busy fighting for power, and most of the disciples in the sect have gone their separate ways."

"Besides, Mo Xiaobao squandered all his money. The Hengshan faction is now in a chaotic period. How could there be enough money to support the three of them on their long journey?"

Bai Zhantang mused to himself thoughtfully: "No wonder they look pale. Before, I thought it was because of their long journey, but now it seems that they are hungry."

After he figured it out, Bai Zhantang didn't continue to ask why the three of them were good at martial arts, but they still looked down and out. He was very aware of the pride of these famous and decent sects, even if the Hengshan sect was only a show.

The three of them still regarded themselves as decent disciples of the famous family, even though their money had already been exhausted, they would not bother to lay down their bodies to make money.

Seeing that Bai Zhantang was thinking, Zhang Chen knew that he had figured out the reason. After all, the three people in Hengshan, even though they were so poor, their martial arts decorations were very clean, and one could tell that they loved their clothes very much.

Then Zhang Chen continued to answer Bai Zhantang's second question, "As for why Xiaobei was appointed as the head, the last six-door communiqué mentioned that the struggle between the Hengshan faction has become fierce to the point of fire, and Hengshan is still alive. There are not many disciples left on the mountain, if this internal strife is not resolved, the Hengshan faction will really collapse."

There is no need for Zhang Chen to elaborate on the following words, Bai Zhantang can clearly understand that this is the time when the direct descendants of the Mo family are needed, and it is also the time for Mo Xiaobei, and only she can appease the interest demands of all parties, so that the Hengshan faction will not be so scattered.

Bai Zhantang, who had figured everything out, said happily, "Fortunately, the shopkeeper is not here, otherwise I really don't know how to speak."

"This matter is considered a good thing for Xiao Bei. If you take this opportunity to establish your name, the Hengshan School will still belong to their Mo family. Otherwise, the surname of this huge school may not necessarily be Mo."

Zhang Chen also nodded in agreement. After all, this is the real world, and people put their interests first. If Mo Xiaobei has any status in the Hengshan School, then Hengshan really has no place for her. .

But this is just the idea of ​​the two of them, and it is not sure whether Tong Xiangyu will agree, so everything has to be discussed after Tong Xiangyu comes back.

The day passes quickly!
In the evening, when everyone in the inn was packing up the dishes, Lu Yiming upstairs opened the door and came out.

After coming to the lobby, he said to Zhang Chen, "I don't know if shopkeeper Tong is back? I'm really anxious to wait in the room."

The rest of the people were also notified by Bai Zhantang during the day, knowing the identities and intentions of the three of them, Guo Furong threw the rag on the long table and said carelessly: "The shopkeeper doesn't know when he will come back, you all stay in the room for a day Why don't you come out and get some air?"

Lu Yiming said in embarrassment when he heard the words: "I'd better wait inside the house, otherwise I feel sorry for delaying the business in the store."

The real situation was that the three of them ate the food delivered by Dazui in the morning, and only then did they fill their stomachs that had been hungry for several days.

At noon, the crowd was busy greeting the guests and forgot the three of them, and they were too embarrassed to speak.

Now the two juniors are sitting quietly to ward off hunger, and he also wanted to try his luck before going out to ask everyone if shopkeeper Tong had returned.

At this moment, Zhang Chen remembered the matter of the Hengshan faction's three people upstairs, and gave Bai Zhantang a look, "Did they not come out to eat at noon?"

Bai Zhantang immediately turned his gaze back and said, "I didn't see them at noon, maybe it's because they didn't eat?"

After the two looked at each other, they quickly looked at Lu Yiming, and saw that he was still able to move freely, but his face was still full of color.

Zhang Chen looked at Lu Yiming and said, "The inns are already closed, so there is no delay. Since you guys don't like to go out, we will deliver the food to the room later."

Bai Zhantang also said with a smile: "That's it, I'll send it to you later."

Lu Yiming could only thank you and said: "Then I will trouble you all, and Lu is here to thank everyone."

After speaking, he didn't stay in the lobby too long, and after a few words of pleasantries, he went back upstairs slowly.

Looking at Lu Yiming's figure, Guo Furong asked suspiciously:
"Isn't it just a meal? As for making such a big scene? I don't know, but I thought it was a big deal."

Zhang Chen and Bai Zhantang couldn't gossip behind their backs at this time, so they could only grumble and deal with it.

The rest of the matter had to wait for Tong Xiangyu to come back. Zhang Chen remembered something he hadn't asked before and said, "I wanted to ask in the morning. Why did the shopkeeper want to go to Shibalipu this time?"

Guo Furong raised her hand high and said: "I know this, I know this, he made an appointment with Chen An'an to see the jewelry, and I heard that the very popular jewelry store has new products, and asked me if I want to come together Go, it's just that I have no interest in these jewelry, so I didn't go"

Looking at Guo Furong's lack of interest, Zhang Chen knew that Guo Furong really didn't have any feelings for these things, so she would still be interested in taking a look at the weapon shop or martial arts cheats.

After knowing the reason for Tong Xiangyu's departure, Zhang Chen didn't ask any more questions, and continued to work on the tables and chairs in the lobby.

After dinner, everyone was busy packing up the dishes and preparing to remove the table, when they saw a head sticking out of the door, looking into the lobby.

　Thanks for the support!
