Chapter 456: Secret Agent
The stench of the south wall of the inner city has been stinking in recent days, which is naturally due to the warmer weather, but more because of the row of corpses hanging horizontally on the wall.
This is probably the latest time that the people of Chaochang have come into contact with the nobles of the inner city, and the cloud council, which was once respected and loved by the Chaochang people, has become the culprit of the Chaochang rebellion.
Scavenging seabirds entrenched on the tower, and the mighty quadrangular battalion armor soldiers were stationed above and below the tower, making this already majestic tower look even more gloomy and solemn.
The pedestrians who came and went did not dare to breathe, and walked quickly with their heads down, for fear that the flesh and blood residues of the corpses on their heads would drip on their bodies.
What's more, they would rather take a long walk around the inner city and walk through other entrances and exits than walk under the corpses.
In the past, the Nancheng archway that was full of people has also become deserted, which can make the small traders on the two streets miserable, not to mention the sharp drop in income, and they will be interrogated by the soldiers of the Sifang Battalion from time to time, and some unsustainable stall vendors have simply closed down, making the market on this Chenglou Street even more deserted.
It's just that there are always exceptions to things in the world, and some people go bankrupt when the year is good, and there are people who get rich when the year is bad.
In this clear archway market, there is a snack shop that has not been affected, but is very prosperous.
The owner of this shop is an old man in Nanchengfang City, but a few days ago I heard that I didn't plan to do it because of the problem of my waist and legs, and I rested for more than half a month, but I didn't know how to get better, and I came back to open the shop, not to mention, but also brought a young offspring, and I took great pains to hang a signboard for my own shop called "Luojiaxiao Shop".
Eating has also changed from the beginning of the somen steamed bun to beef meatballs, and once it was launched, it became a hot spot in the market, as long as you have eaten it, you will not look back.
And the most realistic between the vendors, seeing that the other party has a good business selling meatballs, they have followed suit, but they are all broken and sunk, which contrasts the name of Luo's snack shop.
Later, everyone finally understood that this ball is good, not in the meat, but in the posterior.
Every day, a large bucket of beef, the thin-looking postnatal boy is beaten into meat sauce with a pair of meat palms, and then kneaded into balls and boiled in broth.
Small bowls sell for five silver horns, and large bowls sell for nine, and hundreds of bowls can be sold a day.
Sometimes the guests are in a hurry to eat, the meatballs roll to the ground, and they can be played three or four feet high, and the guests in the back of Nanfang will inevitably pick out a test whenever they order meatballs, and if they can't bounce up, they will abandon the bowl and join the long queue of Luojiaxiaodian.
The bucket of beef in the Luo Jiaxiao shop can often be sold in the morning, and then you can see the young boy holding a rag and wiping the entire shop head and knives spotlessly.
Obviously, it will start work again in two or three hours, but the offspring with a white face has never been lazy, and it is like this every day, and it has attracted praise from the neighbors of Nanshi in only half a month.
Among them, of course, there is the coveting of the opponent's meatballs, but more of them are the admiration for the diligence of the offspring.
The stall will be out before dawn, and it will be done until the second half of the night, and the stall will be out again in less than two hours after returning home, no matter when you are in the Daonan Neighborhood Market, you can almost see the sign of Luojiaxiaodian, and even the soldiers of the Sifang Battalion who change the guard will sometimes come to eat.
Under such a high-intensity stall time, the shop can be sorted out so refreshingly, this is absolutely very human.
All peers think that the little brother of Luojiaxiaodian will become the upstart in the Chaochang catering industry, and many restaurants even threw an olive branch to him, but the honest little brother always smiled, and pointed to the boss who was fanning the wind next to him and replied: "This has to ask Uncle, he can call the shots." ”
Then the money-hungry uncle will offer a disgusting price that makes people swallow flies, and the shopkeepers are so angry that they leave angrily.
Luo's Xiaodian shop, that is, after Tang Luo pulled out the dark array for Yunxiu, the two came up with a way to approach the Nancheng archway.
Perhaps even the soldiers standing guard couldn't imagine that in the snack shop they frequented, it was the existence of the family's three orders and five orders to guard against it.
"The law of the handover of the city defense has been almost seen, tomorrow in the middle of the day, when the guard is changed, the corpse will be snatched, I will open the spiritual passage here and wait for you!"
In the small courtyard, Tang Luo pointed to a certain place on the map of Nanfang, and instructed Xiu'er: "Don't panic, I have seen it clearly these days, the fierce realm of the Sifang Battalion is only deployed at night, although there are many armor soldiers during the day, but all of them are not good at cultivation, there are only two captains who are at the peak of transformation, and the rest are not enough." If you make a quick move, from snatching the corpse to escaping into the passage, about twenty breaths will be enough!"
"Hmm!" Sister Xiu'er listened to Tang Luo's customized plan and nodded in agreement.
"And. After thinking about it, Tang Luo took out the glass bead left by Chen Menglu and handed it to Sister Xiu'er and said: "If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, you take this, if there is an accident at that time, you will sacrifice it directly, and then run away!"
Taking the glass beads that still had residual warmth from the man's hand, Xiu'er lowered her head and thanked her weakly.
......
Longzhou calendar 1786
The third day of February
Xiang Loulan received a secret spy report, and broke into Xiang Ange's room in shock, and was scolded by her father before she could speak.
"Don't you even understand the rules, quit!"
Xiang Loulan walked quickly to Xiang Ange's side, and said in a panic: "Father, something is wrong, all the corpses in Nancheng have been robbed!"
"Oh. ”
Xiang Ange, who was dealing with the report, didn't even raise his head, but just answered, as if it was just a trivial matter.
This was obviously beyond Xiang Loulan's expectations, and the young man didn't understand why the news that had made the entire Xiang family like a great enemy couldn't get his father's attention right now.
"Father, this is not a trivial matter, the Yun family robbed the corpse, which shows that the thief's heart is not dead, and he has to guard against it!"
"What to prevent?" Xiang Ange put down his pen, and there was a trace of contempt at the corner of his mouth: "I used to strictly guard against the enemy, just because I couldn't figure out the reality of the Yun family, after all, no one can tell how many backers the Yun family has in the once famous world, no one can tell, no matter how careful it is." But this time you also saw it, what else is there for the Yun family who left Chaochang?"
"A few martial arts sects who have become monks halfway, or are they the rabble of the Demon Dao? After being an ancient sage of the human race, they are mixed up with the Desolate Ancient Blood Building, just the Heavenly Governor Wang Xun can make them unable to eat and walk around, what kind of threat can they talk about!"
"What does Father mean?"
"The Yun family has completely declined, as for the person who robbed the corpse, let Long Teng take someone to investigate, don't let go of the graves and barren hills. You go to Yulin Zhai again, and ask Grandmaster Shaolin to come to Chaochang and repair the big array!"
"Father still wants to invite him?" Xiang Loulan became angry when he mentioned this: "The big array that was established at such a great cost spent so many resources and at such a great cost was easily broken, I think this Lu Shaolin is just relying on the shadow of his ancestors, and he has a false name!"
