Rise of the Heavens

Chapter 267 Wagang (Second Update)

In August of the 13th year of Daye, the Tang army broke Huoyi, entered Longmen on the [-]th, crossed the Yellow River in September, and threatened Guanzhong.In November, they invaded Chang'an, and the army went all the way south, with smooth wind and water, as if God had helped them.

Yang Guang brought 30 Xiaoguo troops to Jiangdu, and Chang'an's troops were extremely empty. The only thing he could count on was the army of Song Laosheng and Qu Tutong. However, after Song Laosheng was killed, Qu Tutong was unable to support himself and was defeated by the Tang army.Guanzhong could no longer resist the Tang army's offensive.As soon as the army arrived at the city of Chang'an, the Guanlong family in the city opened the city gate and welcomed Li Yuan into the city.

In November, Li Yuan supported the acting king Yang Yu as the emperor, and led the king of Tang, the prime minister, and the order of the minister.Li Jian became the prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin became the Duke of Qin, Li Xuanba became the Duke of Zhao, and Li Yuanji became the Duke of Qi.The entire Guanzhong and Taiyuan are occupied by the Li Clan.

After Gao Cheng entered Chang'an, he left Guanzhong for Jiangnan when the situation was stable.

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, Gao Cheng set off with Duan Zhixuan and Dou Wei. After knowing that Gao Cheng was looking for the formula of longevity to treat Dou's injuries, Li Yuan appointed Duan Zhixuan and Dou Wei as the generals of Zhao Guogong's mansion. Both of them are first-class masters in the world, with the help of the two of them serving tea and water, collecting information, Gao Cheng saved a lot of trouble.

"Third son, not far away is Pengcheng! It is one of the eight gangs and ten associations of the Pengliang Society. The big ship of the Dongming faction is also in Pengcheng at this time. It is said that Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling stole the Dongming faction. The account books are missing in the city!" Duan Zhixuan said in a deep voice about the information he just received.

Dou Wei is much older than Gao Cheng and Duan Zhixuan, but his personality is a bit bursting, and he said anxiously: "Since we have found the traces of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, then what are we waiting for, go directly to Pengcheng to find these two boys, and let us They handed over the formula of longevity!"

He is a child of the Dou family, is related to Li Yuan by marriage, and is also the elder of Gao Cheng, so he can directly address Gao Cheng by his name.Knowing that Li Xuanba was looking for the formula of longevity to heal the Dou family, he volunteered to ask Li Yuan to make himself a general of Zhao Guogong's mansion and help Gao Cheng.

"Don't worry! Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling stole the account books of the Dongming faction. Mrs. Dongming must know the whereabouts of these two boys. I heard that the eldest sister bought the weapons of the Dongming faction in Pengcheng not long ago. Let's go directly to the Dongming faction. Those who follow the Dongming faction will definitely find those two boys!" Gao Cheng said.

Speaking of which, this world is really weird. Although the Sui Dynasty occupied the world, the eight gangs and ten associations scattered all over the country have strong financial resources and subordinates. The sect in power is doing arms business among the princes of the world.The weapons and armor produced can arm tens of thousands of troops.

There is also the Pegasus Ranch, which is located in Jingling County, and has tens of thousands of war horses. If Gao Cheng can get the Dongming faction and the Pegasus Ranch, it won't be long before he can have an extra elite soldier.

If Gao Cheng were Yang Guang, the first thing he would have to deal with after taking the throne was not the Guanlong family at all, but these gangs entrenched all over the world.Then he divided and attacked the Guanlong family, and slowly solved the hidden dangers of the Sui Dynasty. Unfortunately, he was conceited and powerful, conquered Korea three times, dug the Grand Canal, and abused the power of the people. When he first succeeded to the throne, the ideal of achieving unprecedented greatness had long since disappeared.

After Gao Cheng spoke, Dou Wei and Duan Zhixuan stopped talking, and the three of them rode horses and trampled on the ice and snow on the road, wearing thick mink fur, and galloped towards Pengcheng.

……

Pengcheng, Cuibi Tower.

There are many carriages parked in front of this loft on the street. The loft is beautifully decorated, and there are faint smiles coming from it, and the warm fragrant wind spreads through the gate to the outside, attracting the young master of Pengcheng.

"Third Young Master, this seems to be a brothel run by the Baling Gang! There is also a gambling house inside! Could it be that Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling are hiding here?" Duan Zhixuan frowned slightly.

After the three of Gao Cheng entered Pengcheng, they found the eyes and ears of the Li Clan here, and through these people they found the traces of the Dongming faction. Now the Dongming faction sent people to search around to find Kou and Xu.Two of the women walked hurriedly, Gao Cheng and the others followed behind them, ready to be fishermen.

But what surprised Duan Zhixuan and Dou Wei was that the two women from the Dongming School seemed to have received some news and entered the Cuibi Tower directly, regardless of their identities.

"People from Dongming faction have already gone in, those two boys must be there too, let's hurry up too!" Dou Wei urged.

Looking back on the memory in Gao Cheng's mind, it seems that after Kou and Xu stole the account books, they were indeed in the gambling house in Cuibi Tower.In addition to the two of them, there are also the femme fatale Shen Luoyan from Wagang Village, Xiangyushan from the Baling Gang, Du Fuwei from Jianghuai, and Shan Meixian and Shan Wanjing who are hiding in the dark.

These people are all rare masters in the Jianghu, especially Shan Meixian, the daughter of Zhu Yuyan, Queen of Yin, who practiced the magic of heavenly demons.He is a master-level master in the arena.

These people gathered here to get the secret of Duke Yang's treasury from Kou and Xu.If Gao Cheng intervenes, these forces will never agree.

"Let's go in too!"

Gao Cheng said in a deep voice, even if he was against these masters, he would not be afraid at all, so he took Dou Wei and Duan Zhixuan directly into Cuibi Tower.

The Cuibi Building occupies a very large area. After entering the gate, a spacious square appears in front of you. Many people are entering the main building. These guests are accompanied by a beautiful maid.

After the three of Gao Cheng entered, a charming middle-aged beautiful woman greeted them. She saw the extraordinary aura of the three of Gao Cheng, especially Gao Cheng, who was wearing a sable fur, with a superior aura on his body. , hiding a very strong majesty and domineering.

Being able to be a welcoming woman in a brothel, this beautiful woman naturally has extremely high eyesight. She immediately smiled sweetly and greeted her: "Welcome the three uncles to Cuibilou. I am a phoenix lady. I don't know the names of the three uncles, Gao. ?”

Dou Wei glanced at the woman, turning a blind eye to the charming smile on her face, and quickly looked at the appearance of the guests in the main building, and whispered in Gao Cheng's ear: "Xuan Ba, those two women not here!"

Feng Niang was ignored by the three people, this was the first time she encountered such a thing, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, her charming face was a little stiff.

Gao Cheng nodded, and then said in a deep voice, "Feng Niang, you lead the way, we are going to the casino!"

Feng Niang smiled coquettishly when she heard the words, concealing the embarrassment in her heart, and unconsciously obeyed Gao Cheng's order, leading the way ahead, but after taking two steps, she suddenly felt something was wrong. boy.

Why is it that when this person speaks, he obeys unconsciously, as if he heard the order of the master?She was puzzled and wanted to turn around and leave, but after sensing Gao Cheng's aura, she suddenly felt guilty and dared not say the words of refusal.

The gambling house is located at the back of the main building. Just as Feng Niang led the three of them in, she saw a large number of guests running out of the gambling house. The guard of the Cuibi Building wanted to ask about the situation, and immediately a guest shouted: "The people in Wagangzhai are in the gambling house, let us leave quickly!"
