Jinyi Town Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 518
He Liu walked up to the old man: "It seems that you are quite knowledgeable. You even know Jin Yiwei's flying fish suit."

The old man sneered: "Heh, flying fish clothes, embroidered spring knife. When the brocade clothes come out, the court is full of blood. Your Jin Yiwei's notoriety is world-renowned. How come I haven't heard of it?"

He Liu asked, "What's your name?"

The old man's answer was evasive: "I'm just a countryman. Does it matter what my name is?"

He Liu shook his head: "Country man? I haven't seen any country man wearing silk and satin. He lives in a secret passage underground. He hides by day and comes out at night!"

The old man yawned: "Ahhh. I was sleeping during the day. I didn't realize you entered the yard. I was really careless."

He Liu suddenly drew out the Xiuchun knife and laid it across the old man's neck: "Tell me, what position do you hold in Feitian Sect?"

The old man held the blade of the Xiuchun knife between his two fingers, and pushed the Xiuchun knife away from his neck: "My lord, if you ask my name, I will tell you. Why bother to use a knife or a gun? Gao Mingde is the right protector of Feitian Sect!"

He Liu sat on the chair: "You are Gao Mingde, a well-known rich man in Dengzhou City? You built the [-] Great Golden Pagodas in Dengzhou? Didn't you go to Guangxi?"

Gao Mingde chuckled: "Going to Guangxi is just an excuse to deceive people. That's right, I did build the [-] Great Golden Pagodas in Dengzhou. All the wages were paid by me and handed over to The Yamen of the prefect of Dengzhou."

He Liudao: "I seem to understand a little bit. Lao Hailizi, the left guardian of the Feitian Sect, is in charge of making money for the Feitian Sect. He used the method of the Mouse Society to cheat the Feitian Sect of no less than several million taels of silver. You right The Dharma protector is in charge of spending money for the Feitian Sect. The millions of taels he cheated out of him were all spent on repairing the Golden Pagoda. Am I right?"

Gao Mingde was a little surprised: "You actually know that Lao Hailizi is the left protector of our Feitian sect?"

He Liu said with a smile: "To be honest, I have captured Lao Haizizi. Not only have I captured the Left Protector of your Feitian Sect, but I have also captured Yin Wanchen, the young leader of your Feitian Sect!"

Gao Mingde frowned: "Our Young Master doesn't know anything, so don't make things difficult for him."

He Liu took out the Xiuchun Knife, and used the tip of the Xiuchun Knife to shave off the dirt under his fingernails: "I won't embarrass him, but I will embarrass you. Come on, put down your huge family property and hide in this bird What are you doing in the shitty Yuanbao Town?"

Gao Mingde chuckled: "Such a huge family property? Where do I have any other property? Except for a mansion in Dengzhou Mansion, all my savings have been spent on building the golden pagoda."

He Liuyi was stunned: "Could it be that you Feitian Sect have spent several years of hard work, and the money you have accumulated is not enough to build twenty golden pagodas?"

Gao Mingde said: "The twenty golden pagodas cost a total of 630 million taels of Wenyin. Among them, 500 million taels were donated by believers in recent years. The other 130 million taels were put together by us guardians and the leader."

He Liu nodded: "Oh. I think the 130 million taels includes the 20 taels of fishing boat tax money embezzled by your leader and former household doctor Yin Ping, right?"

Gao Mingde nodded: "Yes. Originally, I persuaded our leader that there is not enough money, and we people will find a way to make it up. It is too dangerous to embezzle the government's fishing boat tax money. Once the incident happens, there will be additional problems. It is a pity that our leader did not listen to the advice. Ah. Fortunately, before he was convicted, he sent the 20 taels of silver to Jiaodong. The silver for building the golden pagoda has finally been collected."

He Liudao: "I'm a little confused. Other evil sects make money for self-enrichment. You make money, but you spend it on some kind of golden pagoda. The leader and protectors are all bankrupt. Is it worth it?"

Gao Mingde said firmly: "Of course it's worth it! It takes 57 years for the Flying Immortal to come into the world once! If you miss it in this life, you'll have to wait for the next life! What counts?"

He Liudao: "If I'm not mistaken. The place you said that the Flying Immortal came to the world should be in Yuanbao Town, right?"

Gao Mingde was taken aback: "How do you know?"

He Liu smiled and asked, "Marshal Qi Jiguang, have you heard of it?"

Gao Mingde said: "Qi Jiguang is a great hero in eradicating Japanese invaders. Of course I have heard of it."

He Liudao: "Marshal Qi has a clever son named Qi Anguo. He is now serving as the commander of the Dengzhou Guard. He is the one who cracked the secret of twenty black spots."

Gao Mingde was surprised: "What? He solved the secret of twenty black dots?"

He Liu nodded: "The twenty golden pagodas in Dengzhou are scattered within a radius of three hundred miles of Dengzhou Prefecture. Their arrangement order is exactly the same as the twenty black dots in "Hetu Luoshu". General Qi Anguo Twenty black dots are connected into countless lines. These lines actually meet at one point. The location of the intersection, according to the map of Dengzhou, is here, Yuanbao Town!"

Gao Mingde sighed: "I thought it was a master of metaphysics who solved this secret! Unexpectedly, the person who decrypted it turned out to be a warrior."

He Liu asked: "I don't understand, you just believe in the legend of flying immortals so much? Your leader Yin Ping was born as a scholar in the second list who is well-read in poetry and books. Doesn't he know that 'you don't talk about strange powers and confusion'?" This sentence?"

Gao Mingde shook his head: "Everything Confucius said is not necessarily true! Only seeing is believing. 57 years ago, the father of Yin Hierarch once saw the flying fairy from the sky with Penglai fairy island descending from the sky in Dengzhou! It's a pity "Flying Immortal Tianwai didn't choose Father Yin to fly with them."

He Liudao: "Penglai Xiandao? According to the legend, isn't Penglai Xiandao in the sea? How did it come down from the sky?"

Gao Mingde said half-sarcastically: "It is said that Penglai Xiandao is in the sea. It is just because it has the word 'island'. Ordinary people think that the island must be in the sea. It is not! Fortunately, within a few days It’s the third day of March. At that time, you can witness the spectacular scene of Penglai Xiandao descending from the sky to Yuanbao Town with your own eyes!”

He Liu pointed to the entrance of the tunnel: "If I'm not wrong, there should be a hole in the ground! Is there a secret room inside?"

Gao Mingde said: "This is nature. Under the ground is the main altar of our Feitian Sect!"

He Liu said to He Shizhong: "You are outside, and you have watched Gao Mingde. I will go down with Yang Wan and find out."

After finishing speaking, He Liu and Yang Wan lit a torch and descended into the secret passage.

The secret passage is wide enough for three people to walk in and out side by side.After walking more than 30 steps forward, it suddenly became clear.There is actually a huge hall underground.

In the hall, there are more than a dozen chairs and a small bed.

Numerous murals are engraved on the walls around the hall.These murals are exactly the same as the murals in the secret chamber of the Dry Well in the Yin Mansion in Beijing. They all depict monsters with big heads and eyes and short limbs.

On top of the monster's head, there are some weird plate-shaped things drawn.He Liu thought to himself, these plate-like things should be the spiral boat recorded in "Supplementary Items".
