Chapter Seventy-Eight: Time is turning, heaven and earth are pressing, and this is a prosperous age

"Shaoxia has just come to Hangzhou City, right?" The captain of the guard looked at the unfamiliar face in front of him and asked, as the captain of the guard at the gate of the city, he had read countless people in the rivers and lakes every day, and he thought clearly with a turn of his eyes, and he had never seen the person in front of him.

Zhang Lingdao clenched his fists, "I am a disciple of the Eight Desolations who just came to Hangzhou City, and I hope the captain will show me a clear path." ”

"I can't call it Minglu, but after all, I've been in this city for many years, and you can still do it." He looked at the tall and majestic city in front of him, "Hangzhou City is so big, many people will get lost when they come here for the first time, don't worry, I'll tell you about it carefully." ”

"Thank you!" Zhang Lingdao thanked him and listened to the person in front of him.

"There are four gates in Hangzhou, namely Yongjin, Qiantang, Qingbo, and Wangjiang, and the place where we are, that is, the city gate behind me, is the West Qingbo Gate."

"Outside the door is the wharf where Hangzhou ships come and go, from here you can go straight to Qiantang Port and reach the seaside, which is the place where many Jianghu people come to Hangzhou for the first time."

Listening to his story, Zhang Lingdao reacted, no wonder Yan Nanfei would wait for someone here, thinking that he had just come to Hangzhou, and he agreed with someone at the port, which was convenient and fast.

He listened to the captain of the guard in front of him continue, "The people who pick up the eight wildernesses of the rivers and lakes are all around here, and it is you yellow-mouthed children who pick them up!" The tone of his speech suddenly became a little unkind, which made Zhang Lingdao slightly annoyed, after all, no matter who it was, he would not be happy to be called a yellow-mouthed child.

"Tung Chung Kinmen, that is, on the opposite side of this street, the courtyard of Tianbo Mansion is guarded there, so it also belongs to the place where the Jianghu League and gangs gather. But you have to remember! No matter how powerful the power in the rivers and lakes is, it is necessary to give Tianbo Mansion at least face. ”

He shook the official uniform on his body, it seemed that he was very proud, he also belonged to the Tianbo Mansion sequence, and this sentence also had a certain threatening meaning.

Zhang Lingdao nodded, and saw him talking endlessly: "All fights and brawls, vendettas in the rivers and lakes, must be carried out in the designated area of Tianbo Mansion!" We can't control it outside, but once we enter this Hangzhou city, everyone must listen to us! Otherwise, look at the brothers around me, they don't have vegetarian weapons! ”

"I see! What about the South Gate? Zhang Lingdao asked, he didn't want to listen to the guy in front of him, this person was not only arrogant, but also looked down on these Jianghu people.

"The south gate is Wangjiangmen, which is where the rich God of Wealth Chamber of Commerce is located, and this time the peacock spirit atlas that has been spread in the rivers and lakes is hidden in the secret vault of the Chamber of Commerce." He did not hesitate to reveal such secrets, and it seemed as if they were not secrets.

"Then the north gate is the Qiantang Gate?" With a simple elimination method, the other three doors are removed, and the only thing left is naturally the Qiantang Gate.

The man nodded, "Yes, the north gate is the Qiantang Gate, the most prosperous and noisy place among the four gates of Hangzhou, where caravans are rampant, fleets are constantly shuttling, fleets from Jiaozhi and Dali, merchants from Persia and Dashi will also appear, there are the most prosperous markets and prosperous commerce. ”

"Thank you for this big brother!" Zhang Lingdao said goodbye, although he said that he was very unhappy with the person in front of him, but he gave himself the greatest information help, so he naturally wanted to thank him.

"You don't have to thank me, as long as you don't make trouble in this city, it's our greatest thanks!" He also seemed to be a wonderful person, looking at the vast and prosperous Hangzhou City in front of him with a solemn look, and muttered to himself: "The world is turning, time is pressing, this is a prosperous age." If anyone wants to destroy it, ask me about the sword in my hand! ”

Zhang Lingdao was also shocked by his words, "The world is turning, time is pressing, this is a prosperous world!" It's a good world turning, time is pressing! Brother Tai is a big-minded person, and I really admire it! ”

He threw away the prejudice in his heart and really began to look at the captain of the guard in front of him.

He smiled innocently, "Where did you get your mind?" It's just a joke, and it can't be taken seriously. ”

"No, no, no, you can't say that!" Zhang Lingdao said with a rare positive color, "Although I am a Jianghu person, I am also a common person, you can have such a mind, such an idea, if you become an official, you must be a good official for the people!" Your biggest idea is not your own merits, but in order not to disturb the people, the starting point is right, and the result must be right! ”

As he spoke, he raised his fists again and saluted the captain of the guard in front of him with an ordinary face, "Please accept my bow, don't refuse, your mind is worthy of my salute." ”

After speaking, Zhang Lingdao turned around and left, such a prosperous world, with such officials who care about the people, in such an era, they can't show their own style, it's really in vain!

After Zhang Lingdao left, the captain of the guard stood at the door for a long time, until sunset, when he was awakened by the call of the husband.

"This military master, it's time to fight!" The husband was an acquaintance, and he had already known the old man when he was standing guard as a soldier here, and although the two did not know each other's names, they knew each other.

"Good! You fight, I'll close the city gates! The captain of the guard woke up from his state of confusion, although his expression was a little trance, but with a hint of firmness, "Become an official and benefit one party?" I want to be a general and guard the frontier! ”

What Zhang Lingdao didn't expect, an accidental remark, but let a person with an ordinary life trajectory have an extraordinary life, the rivers and lakes are so big, maybe there is a chance to meet again?

Maybe Hangzhou City has one less loyal guard, but the entire Great Song Dynasty has one more conscientious good official, maybe Hangzhou City has one less guard captain who reprimands his team members every day, but there is one more great general guarding the Song-Liao border!

The world is so wonderful, the previous life experience, life trajectory, who can say?

There are two flowers, one on each branch. When the captain of the guard had a new idea, Zhang Lingdao, who knew the address, found Zhenwu's station in Hangzhou City through the letters he carried.

This is the West Qingbo Gate, the place where Tianbo Mansion divides the people of the Eight Desolations, and it is here. Zhang Lingdao didn't take a few steps to see this courtyard standing between the surrounding houses.

There were two people dressed as small servants at the gate of the courtyard, looking at Zhang Lingdao coming, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask, "Is the person who came from the Eight Desolations?" ”

Zhang Lingdao nodded, "Exactly!" Do you know where my brother Zhenwu is? ”

"Young man, please come with me, the Taoist of True Martial Arts is in this courtyard." Walking into the courtyard with Xiaowu, Zhang Lingdao finally started his journey in Hangzhou.

"Ding! Mission open: In the city of Hangzhou, make a name for yourself! ”
