If the sword is fake. Then Zhao Tuo may be a hero. At least it would be much better than being completely denied like this.
Zhao Tuo slowly inserted the sword into the scabbard and said to Mrs. Zhao: "Prepare some food and wine."
Mrs. Zhao responded and hurried away.
And Zhao Tuo limped outside the yard.
The sun has risen, shining warmly on me, creating two different worlds from the dark interior.
Zhao Tuo took a deep breath and felt that he had come back to his senses a little.
Could it be that this is the awe-inspiring righteousness that Chun Yuyue has been talking about?
Zhao Tuo shook his head to drive out the weird thoughts in his head, and then shouted: "Call Zhao Jia."
Zhao Jia, Zhao Tuo's housekeeper, is smart and capable and deeply trusted.
After Zhao Jia arrived, he looked at Zhao Tuo in surprise and said with some horror: "General, what's wrong with you?"
Zhao Tuo was slightly startled: "What's wrong with me?"
Zhao Jia said: "The general's eyes were red and his eye sockets were sunken, as if he had become quite haggard overnight."
Zhao Tuo said lightly: "It's nothing. I just didn't sleep well last night."
Zhao Jia said oh and did not dare to continue asking.
The general just got the sword yesterday. Last night, he must have listened to the sound of tigers roaring and dragons roaring.
As for whether he heard it or not, it was not for him as a servant to ask.
Zhao Tuo said to Zhao Jia: "You have to ask me clearly about the origin of that sword. You also have to ask me clearly about the origin of Yi Huo. Go now and investigate in secret without alerting anyone. I want to know the answer within half an hour."
Zhao Jia responded and hurried away with two servants.
As a result, as soon as he walked out of the door, he found Guan Wu waiting outside.
Zhao Jia was startled and looked up at the sun.
This...it's just dawn. Is this guy here so early?
Zhao Jia glanced at Guan Wu meaningfully, and then said: "General, you have worked hard."
Guan Wu chuckled: "How can it not be hard to be someone's confidant?"
Zhao Jia added: "General, you have to be careful because you are working so hard."
This statement is a bit inconsistent. What does working hard have to do with being careful?
But Guan Wu understood. This was Zhao Jia's subtle reminder to Guan Wu: You offended a lot of people yesterday, be careful of getting slapped.
Guan Wu smiled and said nothing else.
After all, Zhao Jia's words can be understood as a kind reminder or as a sarcastic statement.
Zhao Jia didn't say much to Guan Wu and left in a hurry.
Guan Wu looked at the direction Zhao Jia was leaving, and winked at the two soldiers behind him: "Go, follow us and have a look."
The two soldiers responded and followed from a distance.
And Guan Wu led the remaining people into Zhao Tuo's mansion with a flattering look on his face.
Now the group of people in Guanwu has become a spy organization, a spy organization that only targets Zhao Tuo's family.
When Zhao Tuo saw Guan Wu arriving, he became furious.
If this guy hadn't disrupted the situation yesterday, would Mr. Li Si have spent tens of millions of dollars to buy a sword? If I don't buy this sword, will I be in trouble?
If it was not illegal for Da Qin to kill people, Zhao Tuo would have killed Guan Wu.
If Huaiguzi hadn't been covering Guanwu, Zhao Tuo would have already taken action.
Guan Wu seemed to understand his situation quite well, so he said with an annoying smile on his face: "Meet the general."
Zhao Tuo waved his hand and asked, "What's the matter?"
Guan Wu said: "We are very curious and don't know what the sound of tigers roaring and dragons roars like, so we want to ask the general for advice."
The soldiers behind all nodded.
Zhao Tuo said calmly: "The sound of tigers roaring and dragons roaring is breathtaking and wonderful. Even if I run out of words in the world, I still can't express it."
Zhao Tuo didn't hear it at all, so he could only use these false words to excuse himself.
Who knew that Guan Wu said with a smile: "The priority of the tune, when the sound is louder and when the sound is softer, you can always imitate it, right?"
Zhao Tuo was furious: "Do you want me to learn this lesson for you, General? You are so brave, what are you?"
The more Zhao Tuo talked, the angrier he became, and he stretched out his hand to hit Guanwu.
Guan Wu said aggrievedly: "General, I just asked casually, why should the general be angry? This...couldn't this be an opportunity for revenge?"
Zhao Tuo was shocked and stopped his hand.
Guan Wuqian laughed, and he was very sensible and did not let Zhao Tuo imitate him again.
Zhao Tuo felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Today I can lose my temper and refuse Guan Wu. What if Li Si asked himself to imitate tomorrow?
Sound can be described in various ways, but its melody and rhythm are certain.
Looking back, a hero really heard the sound of tigers roaring and dragons roaring. The two facts confirmed it and found that it was completely different from his own. What should I do?
Zhao Tuo frowned and wanted to go back to his room.
Guan Wu followed closely behind.
Zhao Tuo glanced at him and said calmly: "If nothing happens, you can leave."
Guan Wugan said with a smile: "In the past, the villain said that if the general no longer regards the villain as his confidant, the villain can complain. In the past, the first thing the villain did after waking up was to stand next to the general, but now... …”
Zhao Tuo became furious, pointed at the door and said, "Then you go and sue."
Guan Wu sighed and murmured in a low voice as he walked: "That's all, I hope the banished immortal won't be angry after hearing this. I don't know about the dung gold and horns. Has the banished immortal's anger dissipated?"
When Zhao Tuo heard this, his teeth itched with hatred.
What if Huaiguzi uses this incident as an excuse to punish himself again?
Zhao Tuo breathed a long sigh of relief and said to Guan Wu, "Wait a minute."
Guan Wu turned around with a smile and asked Zhao Tuo: "The general has changed his mind."
Zhao Tuo nodded: "This general has indeed changed his mind. Since you are my confidant, you can help me do something, right?"
Guan Wu nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay."
Zhao Tuo said: "There is a village thirty miles away from Xianyang City. There is an old man named Zhao in the village. Nine generations ago, he was related to me by blood."
Guan Wu: "..."
Counting nine generations up? Isn't this a bit long?
Zhao Tuo took out a bunch of half a tael of money from his arms and said calmly: "We are obviously relatives, but we have neglected to move around these years. It really shouldn't be the case. A few days ago, I heard that Old Man Zhao was living in poverty, so I gave him a gift He has some money. You can take it over for me."
Guan Wu took half the coins and laughed dryly: "Is it necessary for a villain to take this bunch of copper coins? Just find any servant to do it."
Zhao Tuo shook his head firmly: "No. You are the person next to me. If you go, it will be like I am here. Old man Zhao must be very moved."
Guan Wu could only nod his head, turned around and left.
As soon as Guan Wu left, the remaining soldiers suddenly became confused.
Zhao Tuo glared at them: "Get out."
All these soldiers left.
Finally, these people were blown away, and Zhao Tuo breathed a sigh of relief. Then I sat down and started thinking about what I was going to do.
If the sword is real, then he can't hear the roar of tigers and dragons, so he has to hide it.
If the sword is fake...it's even more troublesome if it's fake. You can't tell Mr. Li Si that he spent tens of millions of dollars to buy a fake sword, right? If this spreads out, where will your dignity be?
If Li Sir loses face, will he hate himself?
What's more, this sword was given to him by Li Si. The affection was deep, but she told him that the sword was fake. What does this make Li Si think?
Zhao Tuo knocked his head in pain: It's really difficult to handle.
At this time, Zhao Jia came back in a hurry with his people.
He said with excitement on his face: "General, general, the villain has heard about it. This sword is really destined to be the general. This is God's will."
Zhao Tuo was frightened when he heard this. These kind of providences and fates always made him a little uneasy.
He asked: "What did you find out?"
Zhao Jia said: "General, do you still remember that you captured Tian Jin and Niu Jiao and escorted them back to Xianyang City?"
Zhao Tuo was a little uncomfortable: "What? What does this have to do with the two of them?"
Zhao Jia laughed dryly: "It's a pity that Xiaoren didn't go on that trip. But Xiaoren heard that when Niujiao passed by Pei County, he once shouted loudly, saying that he was from Shangjun Courtyard, and asked passers-by to report the news."
Zhao Tuo asked with a dark face: "So what?"
Zhao Jia said: "General, this messenger is Yi Huo. After Yi Huo got the sword, he had no intention of coming to Xianyang City. He took the opportunity of reporting the news and came to Xianyang to sell the sword."
"He came to sell the sword because of the general, but the sword was bought by the general. Isn't this God's will?"
When Zhao Tuo heard this, he felt as sick as if he had eaten a dead fly.
Damn it, God’s will, isn’t this just bad luck?
So, Yi Huo had been living in Shangjun Villa before selling his sword?
Now Zhao Tuo is even more suspicious that Yi Huo selling the sword was a trap set by Huai Guzi and deliberately deceived him.
But how could Huaiguzi guarantee that he was the one who was deceived?
Zhao Tuo couldn't figure it out even though he was thinking about it.
Huaiguzi has many tricks, which are not something that ordinary people can figure out.
Zhao Tuo sighed and asked Zhao Jia: "So, do you know the origin of this sword?"
Zhao Jia said: "I know, villain. This sword should be real. Many merchants have been to Pei County. They said that this sword seems to have come from a place called Treasure House."
"The things there are all real. People often go there to buy treasures and spend a lot of money."
Zhao Tuo took a deep breath, and his heart sank to the bottom completely.
It's over, it's over, it's completely over.
It turns out that I am really not a hero.
Just when Zhao Tuo was sad, Zhao Jia said again: "There is another news. General, don't be excited after hearing it."
Zhao Tuo became excited when he heard this.
He forcibly suppressed his emotions and asked, "What's the matter?"
Zhao Jia said: "I heard from the servants of Shangjun's Courtyard that this Yihuo showed off his sword when he first entered Shangjun's Courtyard."
"At that time, someone asked him how much he paid for it. He said that it cost a full 20,000 yuan."
"What?!" Zhao Tuo stood up suddenly.
He glared at Zhao Jia: "How much?"
Zhao Jia looked a little scared when he saw Zhao Tuo's expression. He said cautiously: "Twenty thousand dollars."
Zhao Tuo was going crazy: "Master Tingwei, it cost 70 million."
Zhao Jia smiled dryly and said, "Yes. So...so the original owner of this sword didn't know what he was selling. He sold a sword worth 70 million yuan for only 20,000 yuan."
Zhao Tuo: "..."
This does not mean that the original owner does not know the goods. This is because Lord Tingwei has been deceived.
Zhao Tuo told Zhao Jia: "This news must not be leaked."
Zhao Jia nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I will never say anything. In fact, Shangjun Courtyard has also issued a strict order not to allow the craftsmen to talk nonsense. The reason why I was able to find out is because I happen to be related to one of the craftsmen. "
Zhao Tuo nodded.
Zhao Jia was silent for a while, and then said cautiously: "I asked around, and I found some very strange news."
Zhao Tuo felt a little irritable and asked, "What should I say?"
Zhao Jia scratched his head, frowned and said: "It is said that the owner of this treasure house is named Liu Ji, and Liu Ji is from Sishui Pavilion, Pei County. The villain inquired carefully. In this place, Sishui Pavilion , no one has the same name as Liu Ji."
Zhao Tuo was a little surprised: "Why are you asking about this?"
Zhao Jia laughed dryly: "Have you forgotten, General? There is also a man named Liu Ji in Shangjun Courtyard. This man is also from Pei County and Sishui Pavilion."
Zhao Tuo was stunned for a moment, then immediately remembered: "Yes, there is a Liu Ji, and he accepts endorsements everywhere, so he is considered a celebrity in Xianyang City."
Zhao Jia laughed dryly: "Yes. That's why the villain finds it strange."
The more Zhao Tuo thought about it, the more something was wrong.
It is said that Liu Ji from Shangjun Courtyard has already served as a guard, and he is considered to be trusted by Huaiguzi.
And he opened a treasure house in his hometown?
The sword in the treasure house was sold to a man named Yi Huo. And Yi Huo took the sword to Xianyang City and sold it to Li Si for 70 million yuan, and Li Si gave it to me as a gift?
Wait, Mr. Tingwei had no intention of participating in the auction that day. It was Guanwu Nashuzi who had been fanning the flames.
And Guanwu... has recently taken refuge in Huaiguzi.
Could it be said that Huaiguzi had arranged this a long time ago?
Yes, Huaiguzi must have arranged it a long time ago.
Xianyang City, Gaoshan County, Peixian County, Beidi County...
Sophora millet has been operating in these places for a long time.
When I passed through Peixian County that day, I got the news about this sudden discovery. I knew that I had captured the horns and Tianjin, so I came all the way to Xianyang City to deliver the message.
After Huaiguzi got the news, he first went to Gaoshan County to humiliate me. Then outside Xianyang City, I was beaten again.
That doesn't count, it doesn't matter that he has regained his face on the surface. He also used a sword to severely deceive Mr. Tingwei and I.
Now it doesn't matter whether the sword is real or not. Zhao Tuo tends to believe that the sword is real. After all, the things in the Treasure Pavilion are real and are not used by Huaiguzi to deceive people.
The most important thing now is that Huaiguzi is too scary.
He is thoughtful and lays traps one after another.
How can I get rid of it myself?
At this moment, Guan Wu's panting voice came from outside: "General, I didn't find any old man named Zhao."
Zhao Tuo suddenly showed a kind smile on his face, took the initiative to welcome him out, took Guan Wu's hand and said: "Oh, I made you run for nothing, I have to accompany you. The banished immortal is in good health recently. ? If you have a chance, you should pay a visit."
