Baozhuhua hesitated for a moment and thought to himself: "Your Majesty ordered me to send a message to Chen Xiaotian. Regardless of whether we are enemies or friends in the future, at least nothing will happen to him now." Thinking of this, he turned to Sangua and said: "Bring your weapons, let's go to the general Let’s take a look at the house.”
The inn was not far from the general's residence, and in less than half a stick of incense, the three of them arrived in front of the general's residence. At this time, there was already a chaos outside the mansion. The people living nearby were afraid that the fire in the mansion would harm them, so they took their gold, silver and soft goods, supported the old and the young, and fled in a hurry. The servants and maids in the mansion also ran and fled. For a moment, there was a chaos outside the general's mansion, and people fell on their backs.
Seeing this, Jin Yugua stretched out his big hand, grabbed the collar of a handyman who was about to escape, and asked: "You! Why are you running!?"
The handyman wanted to curse loudly, but when he saw the golden jade melon that looked like a clay sculpture in front of him, he swallowed the curse words on his lips and said in a trembling voice: "Sir...sir...don't you see it for yourself? Fu... ...The house is in trouble!"
Jin Yugua was stunned for a moment, then said angrily: "Nonsense! Where is the water?! Why didn't I see it?"
The handyman looked at Jin Yugua with surprise on his face and thought to himself: "Where did this stupid guy come from? How did I happen to meet him!?"
When Baozhuhua saw this, he said to the servant: "My brother is a bit reckless in what he said. I hope you can forgive me. May I ask where the fire started in the house?"
When the handyman saw a young girl walking up to her, who spoke in a gentle and sweet voice, he couldn't help but be moved. He smiled and said: "This girl looks familiar, she must have just arrived in Aurous Hill not long ago, right?"
Bao Zhuhua was stunned and thought: "Although I am dressed as a Miao nationality, I am not a Han at first glance, but Jinling is a place where talents from all over the world gather. Not to mention us Miao people, even blond and blue-eyed people from the Western Regions can be seen everywhere. He is also How can you tell at a glance that I am a newcomer to Jinling?"
When the servant saw Baozhuhua, he didn't answer, and said with a smile: "Girl, don't be surprised. I, Tian Yan, have the ability to recognize people and identify their faces. I am the second in Jinling, and no one dares to be the first. I think of those who harmed Jiangnan back then." The big thief Li Fei disguised himself among the crowd and tried to escape from Jinling, but I caught him at a glance."
Jin Yugua was still holding Tian Yan's collar at this time. Hearing this, he pushed him away and said disdainfully: "You brat is bragging! I heard about Li Fei when I was a child. He was arrested." At least thirty years, how old were you at that time?"
Tian Yan raised his head and raised his neck and said: "Don't believe it! As the saying goes, age does not determine the ambition! I was indeed only a child of five or six years old at the time, but at that time I had the ability to recognize people. That day I was with my friends I was playing near the west gate of the city. The city wall was covered with portraits of wanted Li Fei. After playing for a while, I rested against the city wall and watched the people coming and going in and out of the city gate. At that time, I noticed someone The man wearing a straw hat is very similar to the portrait of Li Fei on the city wall. Although he deliberately lowered his straw hat and glued two beards on himself, I still recognized him at a glance."
Jin Yugua snorted and said, "Even if you recognize it, what can you do? You are a five or six-year-old kid, who can believe you?"
Tian Yan said: "Big man, you are right. If I were to report to the official, no one would believe me. But you said it was a coincidence. At this moment, my father came, and I told him about it. I killed him. As the saying goes, there is no better way to know a son than a father. Naturally, my father believed in my abilities and immediately informed the officials guarding the city. The officials went forward to investigate and found that the man was indeed the thief Li Fei, so everyone rushed to arrest him. He was captured alive.”
After hearing this, Baozhuhua asked in confusion: "Are you saying that just the gatekeepers caught Li Fei?"
Tian Yan said: "Don't tell me, Li Fei really has a lot of tricks under his hands. More than ten officials came to the city gate together, and he almost ran away."
Baozhuhua didn't say anything after hearing this, but Jin Yugua on the side said disdainfully: "You kid likes to brag. How big is Li Fei's name? In our Miao land, there are also adults who use him to scare disobedient children. He is so powerful. The big snitch, can you catch him with just a dozen gatekeepers?"
Yin Yugua also said: "What nonsense are you talking to him about? Let's go, can't we get in?"
When Tian Yan heard this, he became anxious and said loudly: "It was really like that at that time. If you don't believe it, you can ask our master. When Li Fei was in the process of committing suicide, he was personally responsible for supervising the execution."
Baozhuhua said: "Okay, now please take us to find General Chen, and we can ask him clearly in person."
Tian Yan looked troubled and said: "This... the fire is raging in the house now, I... I don't know where the master is."
Hearing this, Jin Yugua laughed and said, "You already knew that you couldn't find Chen Xiaotian, so you said that on purpose. I, Old Gua, have already seen your thoughts." Then, he turned to Baozhuhua and said: " He’s a liar, ignore him.”
Seeing that he was about to lose all face in front of Baozhuhua, Tian Yan hurriedly ran to the front of a few people and said loudly: "A person takes one breath of life, and a Buddha is a stick of incense. Today, I, Tian, risked my life, and I also want to pay tribute to others." You prove that everything I said is true! Let’s go, I will take you to find the master!”
Bao Zhuhua secretly rejoiced: "The General's Mansion is so big, and I was worried about where to find Chen Xiaotian. Now, just in time, someone has come to lead the way." So, he smiled and said: "Then there are strong men working in the fields."
When Tian Yan saw Baozhuhua looking at him with a smile, he felt dizzy and his whole body felt light and airy, as if he was in the clouds. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, and Yinyu Gua shouted loudly, breaking his dream of yellow rice.
"Hey! Are you leaving?! If not, get out!"
Bao Zhuhua waved his hand and said angrily: "Don't be unreasonable. Tian Zhuangshi, don't worry about it. My eldest brothers grew up in southern Xinjiang and speak more straightforwardly. Don't worry about it."
When Tian Yan heard Bao Zhuhua's words to comfort him, the sweetness in his heart was indescribable. He nodded hurriedly and said: "Although the brothers are noisy, they are not rough in reasoning. It is indeed a waste of time for us to argue here. Whether what I said is true will be discussed later. You will know once you find the master and ask."
Baozhuhuaxin said: "Now the house is in flames, but Tian Yan only cares about showing off in front of me. No wonder King Qi and the old man Tianqi have rebellious intentions. The house of the dignified first-class official and the national protector general is actually filled with these things. Selfish people, what will happen to the whole country if we see this? At this time, if the emperor of the Xia Dynasty does not make great efforts to stimulate the bad and promote the pure, highlight the good and eliminate the evil, he will regulate the whole country from top to bottom, from beginning to end. I'm afraid that this century-old dynasty will be ruined in his hands."
Pan Suxuan said: "Although I have never seen it with my own eyes, I heard the master tell me about the origin of this treasure. The fish scale soft armor is made of the scales of Kunming, the king of fish in the North Sea. It is said that Kunming lives in the deep sea and is as long as The boat is built like an ox, with a strong body. It can hide during the day and go out at night. It has a lifespan of hundreds of years. Moreover, this thing is extremely intelligent and difficult to catch. Using ordinary baits and nets will not help at all. The old palace owner has lived in Beihai for ten years to catch this thing. For a long time, we spent a lot of money to hire more than a hundred local fishing experts and captured it three times in large-scale roundups."
Zhao Niantong puzzled: "How come the old palace master has been arrested three times in Beihai for so many years? Shouldn't he be arrested ten or eight times? Does it take such a long time to prepare for each round-up?"
Pan Suxuan replied: "Of course it won't take so long if it's just preparation, but this thing is extremely cunning. If you fail to trap it once, it will be difficult to get hooked again. After the old palace master failed to round up the first time, Kun Ming sneaked into the deep sea and disappeared for three years. Years and years later. Three years later, Kun Ming suddenly appeared. In a hurry, the old palace master returned in vain due to lack of preparation. There was no news about this object in the next five years. It was only by chance that Kun Ming was brought out again five years later."
Zhao Niantong asked curiously: "What happened by chance?" Pan Suxuan said: "The old palace master has been wandering in the Beihai for many years. Although he has not captured Kunming, he has become an expert in reeling and fishing. In the tenth Last year, his old man captured another deep-sea beast-the giant squid.
Zhao Niantong asked: "What kind of monster is that? Is it very powerful?" Pan Suxuan said: "This is Kun Ming's mortal enemy and one of his favorite foods. I heard from the master that the adult king squid is no less big than Kun Ming. The two are natural enemies of each other in the sea. If they fight, although Kun Ming has a better chance of winning, he will probably be scarred. The king squid captured by the old palace master is still young, and its meat is tender and juicy, which is what Kun Ming loves most. Delicious food. Using this as bait, Kun Ming was lured out and finally captured.
It is said that on that day, the old palace owner and many fishermen rowed twelve large boats to drag Kunming to the shore, and it took eight four-carriage carriages and more than forty strong men to transport him ashore. Kunming's scales are extremely hard, but the soft scales on its abdomen are as soft as silk, which is the finest material for making clothes. The old palace master took out the soft scales and mixed them with a thousand taels of gold thread. It took Feng Cai, known as "the first needle in the south of the Yangtze River," three years to make this invulnerable treasure.
Zhao Niantong said: "It took ten years to catch fish and another three years to make clothes. Isn't it worth it to spend these thirteen years just for an armor that can block swords and guns?"
Pan Suxuan said: "This treasure can not only block swords and guns, but also protect the major points all over the body from being hurt by hidden weapons and finger force. What's even more rare is that this item is water-resistant and fire-resistant. The wearer can gallop into the flames and can shoot five Yang Zongheng, do you think it’s a treasure?”
Zhao Niantong said: "Even if it is invulnerable to weapons, water and fire, why did the old palace master spend so much time and energy in his old age to make a treasured armor that he hardly uses?"
Pan Suxuan nodded and said: "Junior Sister, what you said makes sense. With the martial arts of the old palace master, although he does not dominate the martial arts world and is the best in the world, he is still at the pinnacle and has few rivals. How could he mobilize so many troops in his twilight years? To build something for self-defense? The master didn’t explain this clearly, and I’m also puzzled!”
