Bring some shock to the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 106 The Clever Zhang Sohao

"Come, to celebrate our reunion, Brother Hou, why don't you have a drink with me?"

Raising his wine glass, Zhang Suohao didn't hide his disdain in the face of Hou Jue who looked uncertain.

"No."

Hou Jue shook his head and said calmly, "I've been practicing martial arts recently, so I can't drink alcohol."

Zhang Suohao sneered from the bottom of his heart, he knew that Hou Jue must be unhappy with him, but what's the use of his struggle?To put it bluntly, doesn't he still drink when he needs to?

"Brother Hou, what do you mean you came to the banquet without drinking?"

A cold face flashed across his face. For Zhang Suohao, although he was not even a fart among third-rank officials, he didn't even have much grasp of dragon and tiger aura.But his identity determined that he could act recklessly in this small place like Beiliang.

you don't drink?If you don't drink, you don't give me face, and if you don't give me face, you don't give the governor face.

"what."

Hearing this, Hou Jue sneered suddenly, he raised his head, and said sincerely: "I'm afraid that if you drink too much to go out tonight and be killed by a dog, I won't drink, and I will protect you when the time comes. Otherwise, I am afraid that the dignified governor will be killed by a dog." It's too ridiculous to be killed by a dog, how shameful it would be to have a monument erected in the future."

"you!"

Zhang Suohao was impatient. He was about to reprimand Hou Jue for his audacity when he suddenly realized that Hou Jue was confident and did not feel any regret or panic when he insulted his boss.

Ok?
Zhang Suohao's heart trembled suddenly. He didn't believe that a person could be so calm after insulting his boss so blatantly.

Is it him?

If Zhang Suohao had any scruples in Beiliang this time, there was only one person.

King of Han, Zhu Gaoxi.

Many people in the world are afraid of Zhang Suohao because his sister is the queen.And Queen Zhang was afraid of King Han.

But···
His mind was a little confused, and Zhang Suohao's originally indomitable momentum suddenly weakened.He could see that Hou Jue was not afraid of him, but even vaguely mocking him.

It's not normal, not normal at all.No matter how bad his reputation is, he is still a third-rank governor, and his sister, Empress Zhang, is even more terrifying.It's absolutely abnormal for Hou Jue to insult himself so calmly and calmly.

Is he a pawn of the King of Han?
Zhang Suohao wondered in his heart, so he didn't dare to explode, but suppressed his anger and said with a smile: "In this case, brother Hou doesn't need to drink, we eat vegetables, eat vegetables."

"Okay, you eat more, the whole chaff."

Hou Jue is now a broken pot who loves to fall and fall. Anyway, Zhou Li said that there is a way to keep him from dying. Anyway, he believed it, so he just disgusted the governor.

After all, Hou Jue didn't care about his image at all, he stepped on the stool, hugged his robe carelessly, and began to eat casually.

And at this moment, Zhang Suohao keenly noticed the light blue gold inlaid jade with long tassels on Hou Jue's waist.Suddenly, Zhang Suohao's heart trembled, and his original conjecture was directly confirmed.

“Okay~~~”

Gritting his teeth and picking up his chopsticks, Zhang Suohao appeared to be looking at the food, but in fact he was looking at Hou Jue in front of him.Because Hou Jue was of low status and had nothing to do with the matter, Zhang Suohao did not pay attention to him when investigating.

Now it seems that Han Wang also got the news in advance.

Zhang Suohao knew that what he was looking for was not only evidence of crime, but also clues about Jianwen's orphan.He knew in his heart that when Emperor Taizong died of illness and Hong Xi was seriously ill, the King of Han was not as loyal as he is now.If the immortal had not taken action to remove the lesions on Emperor Hongxi's body, I am afraid that the Ming Dynasty would have to go through another battle of peace.

No, no matter what, this bead cannot be allowed to fall into the hands of King Han.

While Zhang Suohao was secretly sizing up Hou Jue, he also took a few mouthfuls. After a while, he raised his head and asked curiously: "What? Are you not used to eating fine bran? Let me go to the kitchen to get you some swill." ?"

"Hou Jue, don't bully people too much!"

Zhang Suohao was startled immediately, and said angrily, "I'll give you a few thin noodles, it's for His Highness the King of Han. You are a bit deceitful now, let me tell you, my sister, Empress Zhang!"

"King of Han?"

Hou Jue was taken aback for a moment, and said in confusion, "No, what does our bickering have to do with King Han?"

Zhang Suohao laughed out of anger. He looked at Hou Jue's sincere face, and was speechless for a while.After a brief silence, Zhang Suohao sneered and said:

"I see."

Before Hou Jue could speak, suddenly, a white light flashed by his side.In the next second, Hou Jue fell limply on the ground, unconscious.

"Why did you suddenly let me shoot?"

The dead knife slowly raised its head, looked at Zhang Suohao who had made a gesture, and asked puzzledly: "Isn't he from the King of Han?"

"Yes."

Nodded, shook his head again.Zhang Suohao walked up to the unconscious Hou Jue, stretched out his hand, and tore off the jade pendant.Looking at the delicate golden lance jade pendant, and the rough blue braid, Zhang Suohao squinted his eyes for a moment, then said slowly:

"But no."

"Can't understand."

"If you don't understand, learn it hard."

With a snort, Zhang Suohao showed the jade pendant to Dead Man's Knife, shook the long blue tassels, and said, "Everyone in the King of Han will wear a golden lance jade pendant, it's true. But you've seen the jade pendant of the King of Han Come on, are there any cheap tassels like this?"

The dead knife was stunned for a moment, and then said bluntly: "I don't know, I died once, and half of my brain is muddy."

"madness."

Zhang Suohao scolded angrily and said:

"This Hou Jue is obviously a spy randomly found by the king of Han. He got him a hundred households in Beiliang, and gave him a jade pendant that is not worthy of golden ears, just to distance himself from him at any time." "Even if Hou Jue secretly investigates If the matter of Jianwen's orphan is found out, the King of Han will directly say that the jade pendant was stolen by Hou Jue and used as a facade, and has nothing to do with the King of Han, understand?"

After calming down, Zhang Suohao glanced at Hou Jue, who was lying around, and said slowly:
"It seems that the King of Han is just suspicious of Xie Jia, not like I have the exact information. But what I am going to do next must not be noticed by the King of Han, so this person cannot be killed or released."

"Kill it, if the King of Han doesn't receive the news, he will think of me, and things will be troublesome. Let it go, what happened today has already happened, let alone let him go.

"what is it now?"

Faced with the doubts of the dead knife, Zhang Suohao was silent for a moment, and then thought of a good way.

"Send it to the barracks of the Royal Forest Army. I will interrogate it myself tomorrow."

Stretching out his hand to touch it, the soldier talisman, jade pendant and a note appeared in Zhang Suohao's hand.After reading the contents of the note, Zhang Suohao threw the object to the dead man's knife, and said:

"According to this Flying Pigeon every day, a six-character message will be delivered at Maoshi."

Dead Man's Sword understood that the Fei Ge number should be the way to contact the King of Han, and Mao hour was the time that Zhang Suohao deciphered.He took the Flying Pigeon and took a look at its contents.

"Anywhere?"

He raised his head, and said with some surprise: "Master Zhang, the Flying Pigeon above can be accessed anywhere, and it is the Monster Hunting Hall operated by Zhou Li."

"what?"

Zhang Suohao was stunned, and then quickly asked: "Are you sure?"

"I inquired about it at noon today, and it is this string of numbers."

With a wry smile, Dead Man's Knife sighed, and said slowly, "Master Zhang, I'm in trouble."

"No. Check, check for me!"

After a brief shock, Zhang Suohao frowned, shook his head again and again, and said in a solemn tone:
"It is absolutely impossible for Zhou Li to have anything to do with the King of Han. I have checked his background, and he has no connection with the King of Han. There is a high probability that it is just a one-way stronghold of the King of Han, and Zhou Li has no connection with the King of Han himself."

"Wait a moment."

Stretching out his hand to stop the Imperial Forest Army who was about to act, Zhang Suohao said slowly after a short thought:

"No, change your mind."

He lowered his head and looked at Hou Jue, who was unconscious at his feet, with a smile of victory appearing on his face.

"Everything works. The Monster Hunting Hall should accept the entrustment."

The corners of Zhang Suohao's mouth twitched slightly, and he said softly, "Go, give the soldier talisman to Li Kuan. Let Li Kuan know where to go, and give Zhou Li a commission."

"The content of the commission is to find the missing Hou Jue."

Hearing this, Dead Man's Knife was taken aback for a moment, and then the expression on his face gradually changed from surprise to admiration.He cupped his hands and said in admiration:

"Master Zhang is indeed wise. In this way, if Zhou Li knows the King of Han, he will definitely show his flaws."

Zhang Suohao smiled coldly, and said slowly:
"Not only that, but if Zhou Li has no connection with the King of Han, we can control him at any time. If there is a connection, we will use his hands to kill the Xie family of Beiliang and the people around him, and blame the King of Han."

"Playing suspicious tricks with me? Heh, let me see how you should deal with it."

"how to respond?"

Looking at Zhou Li with a strange expression, the old pedant held the teacup, shook it, and asked curiously, "Is this falling into your trap?"

"Half and half."

Zhou Li put the sweet milk with sugar into Shuang'er's hand, looked at the girl who was sipping the milk happily, and said softly:

"I'm sure that when he sees the Hanwang jade pendant I begged from Qianyun, he will definitely take Hou Jue into his barracks to take care of him. In this way, my supernatural powers will be able to see the Imperial Forest Army barracks."

Although Zhou Shuang'er's Clairvoyance and Shunfeng Ear is not a spell, it is almost impossible to defend against, but it still has its own shortcomings.

First of all, this magical power must be visible, that is, if the opponent is in a room with closed doors and windows, this spell will be invalid.Secondly, magical powers will also fail in places like the Imperial Forest Army barracks where "invisible talismans" are hung or invisible barriers are set up.

Of course, Zhou Li can directly summon Zhou Shuang'er's immortal body, which means that just like Zhou Yi in the mountain temple, he can directly let Shuang'er, the "immortal body" in his heyday, explore at will.You know, the immortal Zhou Yi can tear apart mountain giants with his hands.If it were Shuang'er with an immortal body, he could even see any pattern on the emperor's underwear.

But this is not necessary, after all, the spirit energy in the fairy gourd is too difficult to replenish.Since Zhou Yi in the mountain temple used the spirit qi to manifest the immortal body, there is less than half of the gourd's spirit qi left. Even if it is activated, it can only make Zhou Shuang'er look at it for a few seconds, which is meaningless.

Therefore, Zhou Li chose another method.That is to let Hou Jue "be" sneaked into the enemy camp, so that Zhou Li can see everything in the camp clearly through another way.

"What's better, what's better, what's better than that."

Listening to the noisy voice in his head, Zhou Li smiled nonchalantly.On Hou Jue's body, his own vermilion ball was placed in his arms.

Zhou Li was betting that Zhang Suohao would not dare to touch things of unknown origin at will.

As Zhou Li expected, Zhang Suohao didn't dare to touch the strangely shaped Vermillion Ball, but just sealed a talisman and put it in Hou Jue's arms, and let him be escorted into the barracks.

As for the others...

Zhou Di scattered the golden light in his eyes, and if he wanted to use Clairvoyance and Shunfeng Er next time, he might have to wait a few days.He took a breath and thought about Zhang Suohao's "asking Li Kuan to entrust Zhou Li with the task of finding Hou Jue", and a strange smile appeared on his face.

"Be smart."

　Someone asked Zhou Li if he should practice. This will be explained in tomorrow's update.The protagonist's level improvement in this book will not be so routine. Of course, there are routines, but it may be strange. After all, the tone of the book is somewhat abstract.
