I have a long pupil

Chapter 64

"benefactor?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Biao was suddenly surprised, "Did you admit the wrong person?"

Guo Wadang said: "The old man is not confused yet, but catcher Zhang remembers Chen Hou'er?"

Zhang Biao nodded and said, "I remember."

Chen Hou'er is a well-known monkey showman who traveled all over the world, and also a flower picker. He committed serious crimes in various places and was arrested by them in the capital.

The old man Guo said in a deep voice: "There is a woman in my village who went to the city with her father to watch a play, and was targeted and killed by this thief."

"When I came to the capital this time, I wanted to take his head back. Unexpectedly, Zhang Butou had already captured him. On the day of beheading, we were all present."

"It turns out that there is another reason."

Yang Xiao said with a smile: "Then it's my own, everyone, sit down quickly, I'll get some food and wine."

Having said that, he left in a hurry.

Zhang Biao also nodded and said with a smile: "I also remembered. When my father was still alive, he mentioned the Guo family Mopanzhang in Huaizhou. Are you all from Guojiawan?"

"What Zhang Butou said is correct."

"I'm no longer a public servant, it's enough for brothers to match each other..."

With this relationship, the atmosphere suddenly became harmonious,
It didn't take long for Yang Xiao to come back with the food and drinks. Everyone drank and chatted, and everything was settled during the dinner.

Zhang Biao is responsible for managing the relationship with Fengyifang, so don't let people come to disturb him.

Yang Jue contacted brick, stone and wooden beams, and a group of craftsmen in Guojiawan disguised themselves to repair Taoist temples, waited for the opportunity, and left Yujing City.

After arranging everything, Zhang Biao took his leave and went to Jing'an Square, leaving a code on the wall.

The work is about to start, and money is indispensable.

It's time to withdraw the money left in Cui Laodao's place in batches...

…………

While Zhang Biao was busy, Zhou Dalang also went to the palace under the leadership of Jin Wuwei.

Many ordinary people in Yujing City have never been to Beicheng where rich and powerful people gather, let alone the imperial palace.

Towering red walls, majestic stone beasts, wide squares, strong and mighty soldiers...

Along the way, Zhou Dalang's mind was already in a mess, his legs were weak, and the previous excitement had already turned into deep fear.

"Ahead is the Qionghua Palace."

The little eunuch leading the way introduced in a low voice.

Looking at Zhou Dalang's appearance, for some reason, the little eunuch remembered that he was immature when he first entered the palace, and reminded him a lot: "Eunuch Luan Moyan, the head of internal affairs, is very fond of you, so you can move around more if you have something to do."

"Uh-huh."

Looking up at the towering palace, Zhou Dalang opened his mouth wide and his eyes were dull...

Entering the hall, many people have gathered inside.

Zhou Dalang was confused, trembling as soon as he came in, his knees softened and he knelt on the ground, banging his head a few times, and said in a trembling voice: "Caomin, pay homage to the emperor!"

puff!

There were a few laughs around.

Tian Yue stood behind Granny Mouse, his mouth full of disdain.

The Huo monks of the Huo Luo Sect clasped their hands together, lowered their heads, and there was no expression on their faces.

A hint of disappointment flashed in the eyes of the rat mother-in-law.

Behind everyone, Warlock Bai Yan still had that fox-like smile, looking around quietly.

On the Diaolong throne, the emperor Zhao Mian showed a trace of satisfaction in his eyes, and said slowly: "Zhou Aiqing, there is no need for a big ceremony, get up."

Today, on the first day of publishing the list, many people were called, but none of them were kind, they seemed to be respectful, but he couldn't tell that each had their own ulterior motives.

But Zhou Dalang this time, although he is an inconspicuous commoner, at least he showed respect.

Thinking of this, Zhao Mian nodded to the side.

Luan Moyan, the head of internal affairs, stepped forward immediately, spread out an imperial decree and read aloud: "By heaven, the emperor ordered that there must be sages in the countryside. I feel the changes in the world, build the Yuzhen Mansion, and select talents from all directions..."

The general meaning is that the imperial court wants to establish a new institution called Yuzhenfu. After everyone joins in, they will directly get a sixth-rank official position.

Yuzhen Mansion is under the personal administration of the emperor, and Luan Moyan, the head of internal affairs, acts as the leader temporarily.

"Thank you, Majesty Ron."

Everyone bent down and cupped their hands together.

Zhou Dalang didn't know a single word, so he couldn't understand the imperial decree, but he was not a fool, he bowed his hands when he saw everyone thanking him.

After reading the imperial decree, Zhao Mian nodded to the humongous monks of the Huoluo Sect and said, "I understand what everyone is asking for. After the Autumn Stove Sacrifice, I will order King You to deliver the thing."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The Hu monks breathed a sigh of relief and quickly bowed their heads.

The chief catcher, Guo An, is also in the hall.

He could see that Emperor Zhao Mian attached great importance to the newly established Yuzhen Mansion, but he looked on coldly and bowed his head in silence.

At this time, Zhao Mian in the hall said again: "The Yuzhen Mansion is newly built, and we should get closer to all your lovers, but there are other important things, so I have to work hard for you first."

"This is Guo An, the chief arrester of the Six Gates, and he will explain to you in detail..."

After finishing speaking, he slowly got up and left the hall.

Guo An cupped his hands and said, "Everyone, please do it without delay!"

He is an old man in the officialdom, he knows that this group of people possesses special abilities and is favored by the emperor, so they will be very powerful in the future, so naturally they won't offend them.

Headhunters of six doors...

Standing in the crowd, Zhou Dalang trembled slightly.

He thought of Zhang Biao, that was just a small captor, so no one dared to mess with him in the workshop, and his family had to be careful to curry favor with him.

But now, the chief arresters of the six sects are all so polite to them.

This feeling is really good...

Naturally, Guo An didn't know what Zhou Dalang was thinking, and when he left the imperial city, he brought everyone to Tongzhengfang, the main hall with six doors.

Entering a big house, I saw more than a dozen dead bodies densely packed inside, all covered with white cloth.

Guo An slowly lifted the white cloth.

Under the white cloth, there was a distorted corpse. Distorted bone spurs grew out of the joints all over the body, and bone horns protruded from the head. It looked like a ghost, bloody and bloody.

"Uh...vomit!"

Zhou Dalang had never seen such a scene before, he was trembling with fright, and immediately vomited it out.

In an instant, the sour smell filled the room.

Everyone was disgusted and scattered, but they didn't care about the blame, and several people also had a bad face.

There are men and women, they are all from the Jianghu, just like Zhou Dalang, after the revival of spiritual energy, they experienced some changes and awakened some kind of supernatural power.

Naturally, they don't know the cause and effect, and think that they are lucky, but they don't expect to see this thing in the first day.

"Total headhunting, it's not good!"

At this moment, several head catchers hurriedly carried a person into the room, also covered in bone spurs, screaming in pain.

Guo An was furious when he saw it, "What's going on?"

The recruiter was actually Xu Bai.

A head catcher said in a trembling voice: "The tunnel almost mutinied just now, and Xu Shen caught him in to deal with it, and it became like this in a while."

Guo An took a deep breath, "Everyone, is there a way to save you?"

Among the crowd, a young monk came out tremblingly, clasped his hands together and said, "The little monk is Zhu Huiyuan from the Chongsheng Temple. The Medicine Buddha Temple has the protection of the Buddha. You can carry him there first."

Guo An naturally had read everyone's information, and quickly said: "Hurry up, use a carriage, hold my warrant to open the road along the street, and carry people over!"

The young monk Huiyuan swallowed, "The little monk must follow, otherwise it will be difficult to rescue."

"Thank you, Master."

Guo An hurriedly handed him off.

Chongsheng Temple is not far from Tongzheng Square, and soon, a head catcher hurried back, with a happy face, he said: "Boss catcher, Xu God catcher has just entered the Medicine Master Buddha Hall, and he no longer suffers from illness. Right now, the little divine monk is helping him."

Only then did Guo An let out a sigh of relief, and respectfully cupped his hands and said, "You are all righteous people, do you know what is causing the trouble?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.

Zhou Dalang and those awakened people naturally don't understand anything, while the rat mother-in-law is pretending to be stupid.

The sorcerer Bai Yan's eyes moved slightly, and he was about to speak, but when he saw a few Hu monks exchanged glances, he kept silent.

Sure enough, a Hu monk said: "My lord, in the classics of my teaching, it is said that there are one hundred and eight thousand demons in the world. Such symptoms are somewhat similar to a demon named Soligu Rakshasa."

"In the words of Middle Earth, it is the Bone Demon!"

…………

Before you know it, night falls.

In the darkness, a figure ran fast on the wall of the square, sometimes soaring into the air, jumping up the tall building, and blending into the darkness.

It was Zhang Biao who walked at night.

In the dark alley next to Jing'anfang, Cui Laodao kept turning around, muttering something in his mouth.

Swish!
A dark shadow appeared behind him.

Cui Laodao quickly turned his head and said with great joy: "Master Immortal, you have finally appeared. During this time, the old Taoist is about to be driven crazy."

Zhang Biao frowned slightly, and said in a low voice, "What happened?"

Cui Laodao said with bitterness on his face: "Although the Yi Chong Society has been wiped out, they have released rumors before that there is Tai Sui in Beijing, who has the ability to subdue demons and eliminate demons."

"The common people don't know about this matter, but many dignitaries know about it. These days, they have come to the door one after another. Some want to win over and ask for an interview, and some bring a lot of money to ask for help."

"Today, the imperial court issued a list to call for strange people and strangers, and there were even more people who came, and even several princes sent their servants to come. The old Taoist really can't bear it..."

"Oh?"

Zhang Biao was thoughtful, and instantly figured out the cause and effect.

Judging from all the incidents, the imperial court must have found something from the Lianhuazong, and the news leaked, causing all forces to move around.

They are not ordinary people, and there are quite a few of them with profound backgrounds. Knowing what this great change means, they naturally have to prepare in private.

From this point of view, it is also an opportunity...

Seeing his silence, Old Taoist Cui cautiously asked: "Master Immortal, the court has issued a list, do you intend to join the court?"

Zhang Biao said in a deep voice: "I will not enter the imperial court, but those who ask for help can choose some. The previous conditions are medicine and money."

"well!"

Seeing this, Cui Laodao heaved a sigh of relief.

Zhang Biao nodded, "To be honest, I have no intention of accepting apprentices. You are old and have no hope of practicing. If you want to continue to work for me, you can get some benefits from it, and I will give you some opportunities in the future."

"But it's dangerous, do you know?"

"Master Immortal, don't worry."

Old Daoist Cui smiled, "The old Daoist has his own measure and can handle it."

"Also, those things are secretly hidden in a private house by the old Taoist. Immortal masters can take them by themselves if they want to use them, and they will never leak the news..."

After a discussion between the two, Zhang Biao immediately jumped into the air with his strength, jumped up the wall of the square, and disappeared under the moonlit night.

Looking at the distant figure, Cui Laodao muttered: "Sure enough, I have no relationship with the Tao, but if I find a backer, I will be able to have a good time in the future..."

……

After leaving Jing'anfang, Zhang Biao did not return home, but went directly to Tongzhengfang.

The bone demon is full of treasures and cannot be missed.

I don't know what progress there is now?
He was very fast, and now that there were no six gates to watch the night, he arrived at Tongzheng Fang in a short while.

However, as soon as he jumped onto the square wall, he frowned.

Outside the six doors, flames are already raging into the sky...
