Rise of the Heavens

Chapter 777 Leopard Head

In the Song Dynasty, Tokyo was known as the number one city in the world. There were already millions of people living in Tokyo. Before entering the city, Gao Cheng saw an extremely prosperous city appearing in front of him.

The water of the Bian River surrounds the outside of the city pool, and some of the river water enters the city directly through the water gate.On both sides of the road outside the city gate, there are a large number of houses, restaurants and shops, but the city's periphery is far more prosperous than Yan'an Mansion.

When Gao Cheng came to Tokyo, it was almost dusk, and the restaurants and shops along the road were all hung with lanterns, and the shops were brightly lit. From a distance, the whole of Tokyo looked like a city that never sleeps.

"Tokyo in the Song Dynasty is even more prosperous than Chang'an City in the Zhenguan era of the Tang Dynasty! What a scene of prosperity!"

Gao Cheng admired secretly in his heart, just looking at the prosperous scene of Tokyo City, even the most daring people dare not imagine that this is the eve of the end of the dynasty.

The Xuanhe period was the last prosperous period of the Song Dynasty.However, this kind of prosperous age is only superficial. No matter how prosperous the prosperous age is, without enough force to support it, it is nothing but illusion, and it will be shattered with a single poke.

Gao Cheng secretly used his spiritual eyes to observe the top of Tokyo, and saw endless luck gathered above Tokyo to form a lying golden dragon. This golden dragon seemed to have closed its eyes, as if sensing someone peeping, its huge body shook slightly. Shaking, an invisible force came across the void.

Peng!Gao Cheng closed his eyes violently, only feeling that his eyes were sour and almost shed tears.Such a tyrannical luck, if not for his identity as a child of the Zhao family, the counterattack of the golden dragon of luck formed by the Song Dynasty would never have been so slight.

"The Golden Dragon of Luck, cut off all dharmas, and protect the Son of Heaven! It's a pity that it's a bit of a force on the outside!" When Gao Cheng saw the Golden Dragon of Luck, he had a strange feeling in his heart.

After peeking at the luck of the Great Song Dynasty, Gao Cheng's spiritual eyes could not be used again for a short time, so he directly led the horse, asked Xiao Er from the tea shop not far away, and walked towards the direction of Daxiangguo Temple in Tokyo .

"Brother!"

When Gao Cheng led the horse to the place, Zhu Wu and Chen Da, who had already arrived in Tokyo, saw his figure and hurried up to greet him. According to the prior instructions, they had already arranged an inn nearby.

It was getting late now, and the three of them didn't have the intention of wandering outside, so they went directly to the inn to rest.

In the inn room, Gao Cheng asked Chen Da to rest and called Zhu Wu.

"Brother asked me to come, but what is your order?" Zhu Wu asked tentatively.

During this period of time, he held the power of the Escort Bureau in Zhaojiazhuang, and he admired Gao Cheng's idea of ​​establishing the Escort Bureau. Coupled with the kindness of saving his life before, this magical military strategist was sincerely willing to serve Gao Cheng.

Gao Cheng pondered for a while, and said, "I'm not going to hide it from you, this time I came to Tokyo, I wanted to open up my joints and get a job!"

"My current official position is Chengjielang from the ninth rank. If there is no dispatch, there will be no channel for meritorious service, and it may be like this for the rest of my life! Since a man was born in the world, how can he be worthy of our brothers for so many years if he does not make meritorious deeds? A skill that has been practiced hard?"

Zhu Wu was also a little moved when he heard such excited words, and couldn't help saying: "Brother, what you said is not bad. With my brother's ability, it is really a waste of talent to be a small official from the ninth rank!"

Gao Cheng laughed, took a deep look at Zhu Wu, and said, "You and I are brothers, so I will speak directly when I have something to say. Those prefects and county magistrates only know how to recite poems and write poems against corruption and pervert the law. So, there are a lot of muddled things."

"You can send troops to form a formation, and Chen Da and Yang Chun can charge into the formation. They are all generals. But these mediocre officials forced the three brothers to fall into the grass of Shaohua Mountain! They are blind and don't know real heroes."

"If I can replace these magistrates and prefects, you will be able to cleanse the world and make contributions to the imperial court as the governor of the army. In the future, you will be able to confer your wife and son, and you will be able to honor your ancestors!"

Zhu Wu breathed a little faster, and said: "Brother has such great ambitions, my younger brother will be like a fly! If you have anything to do, just tell me."

Gao Cheng nodded, and said: "If you want to find a dispatch, you have to open up a door. The Duke of Chu can give me a small official as Cheng Jielang through the clan's mansion, but there is nothing you can do about the specific dispatch. So I We must find another way!"

"I heard that the most powerful people in Tokyo are Taishi Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Liang Shicheng, and Gao Qiu. If you can get through the connections of these people, it will be easy to find a job!"

Zhu Wu's expression changed slightly, and he quickly said: "Brother, these people are all treacherous ministers, if others know that my brother got an official through them, it will hurt my reputation in the future!"

"You're right, but being an official is all about deeds regardless of our heart. As long as we act upright and sit up straight, who can say that we are the henchmen of treacherous ministers?"

Gao Cheng said: "The doors of Cai Jing, Tong Guan, and Liang Shicheng are too high. I'm going to follow Gao Qiu's lead. I'll find a way to get a job in Tokyo first, and then I'll leave Tokyo."

Zhu Wu lowered his head and thought for a while, then said: "Brother, this method is feasible!"

When Gao Cheng and Zhu Wu talked about these things, they didn't want Zhu Wu, a man with outstanding intelligence, to make random guesses. After all, the fact that he used Gao Qi's door to get a job cannot be hidden, as long as he investigates seriously, he can find it.

If he didn't say these things to Zhu Wu, then when Zhu Wu found out what he had done, he would be dissatisfied and cut off relations with him.No matter how cunning Zhu Wu is, he has spent so long in the rivers and lakes. He has been stained with green forest habits, attaches great importance to loyalty, and hates and despises treacherous officials and their henchmen.

On the second day, Gao Cheng asked Zhu Wu and Chen Da to inquire about Lin Chong, Xu Ning and Yang Zhi first.These three people are rare masters in Tiangang star.

Inquire about the news now, and when these three people are in trouble, they can be properly recruited to prevent them from being cornered and forced to go to Liangshan.

Gao Cheng himself asked the way, and walked directly to Gao Qiu's mansion.

There are many pedestrians on the streets of Tokyo, there are small merchants and hawkers selling various things, and there are also many yamen with dog legs.There are also shabby scholars holding folding fans and shaking their heads, pretending to be flirtatious.

Gao Li's mansion occupies a small half of the street in the Tokyo city. Outside the gate are two big lions and two capable servants guarding the gate, quite majestic.

When Gao Cheng walked to the gate of the Gao Mansion, he happened to see two big men coming out of the Gao Mansion. One of them had a leopard head and round eyes, a majestic figure, and his eyes were full of divine light. short beard.

"The leopard's head and eyes are like Zhang Fei, and he can enter and leave the Gaofu. This person is Lin Chong!"

When Gao Cheng saw the appearance of one of them, he immediately confirmed the other's identity in his heart.He was a little surprised. According to his observation, Lin Chong didn't seem to be cultivating the gang qi that is unique to a hero in the world, but the true qi of his inner family!The breath is lingering, very long.

This is very inconsistent with his appearance.
