Romance of Gods

Chapter 182: Making a fuss in Yuzhou City
After a few more instructions, the beggars sang Lotus Falls, and under Chen Yan's gaze, walked arm-in-arm toward Yuzhou City.

Chen Yan thought to himself that since there was no way to avoid the eyes of the imperial hawks in the city, he would find a way to lure them out.

Now Yuzhou is not just a god actor. As long as he can make the tiger leave the mountain, it will be much easier for him.

He took Xiaohua and walked outside the mountain, stopped near a cliff with dense vegetation, flew into the sky and sat down to observe the situation.

It was drizzling and the mountain road was slightly slippery.

As the beggars walked towards the city, they thought about how to do this errand.

The one-eyed beggar said: "This gentleman is kind-hearted, but his brain is not very good. Brother Pao will have these eighteen eunuchs. Although they are all the adopted sons and daughters of Mr. Ao San, who in Yuzhou City doesn't know that these dozen of gentlemen We are always competing secretly, and every day in our dreams, we are thinking about how to overpower the brothers."

Others echoed: "Brother, what I said is true. Since Feng Erniang asked outsiders to help her, this matter must be important. If it is done, she can show her prestige in front of Mr. Ao... Otherwise, she will find her brother herself. Guys, please help. If we really leak this matter, Feng Erniang may not hold a grudge against us."

As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but have their thoughts moved. Some people said smugly: "Hey, let's not do this. We can take the money and leave, and we can live happily in other places for a while."

"Idiot." When the one-eyed beggar heard this, his face immediately dropped, "This is a good opportunity for us to get ahead, how can we just give up!"

Several people looked at each other in confusion, "Brother, if we really do what that master ordered us to do, wouldn't we offend Feng Erniang?"

The one-eyed beggar sneered, "Even if we please Feng Erniang, how much money can she reward us? Why don't we take this opportunity to jump over the dragon's gate? We each go find an uncle and leak this matter. As long as Feng Erniang can be If the good thing of the conspiracy is ruined, isn't it a great achievement?"

Everyone couldn't help but nodded. This was a good idea. By selling Feng Siniang and Chen Yan, in exchange for the trust of the other leaders, there was no more cost-effective deal in the world.

"Goodbye, brother!"

Everyone laughed and hurried towards Yuzhou City.

Yuzhou has been a thoroughfare since ancient times. It is even more lively these days. There are endless crowds of people in the misty rain.

Nowadays, people from all walks of life gather in Yuzhou City, including entertainers from all over the world, storytellers, opera singers, and children... Ordinary people from all walks of life have also gone to the city to take advantage of the crowds. It’s lively, so many people earn three melons and two dates to live.

Although the imperial court exempted talents, the life of the people was even worse than before.

Nowadays, the court fights wars, the emperor builds temples, and hundreds of officials receive salaries... one year's expenditure seems to be as much as one year.

Although there are capable people in the court, there is no way to create money and food out of thin air. The hard work will eventually fall on the people.

When Tian Fu was there, no matter how hard the officials tried to make things difficult, there was still a quota for how much food and money should be paid.

Nowadays, the government directly robs people in the name of borrowing money, and people often starve to death in good harvest years.

There are eighteen large restaurants in Yuzhou City, each of which is managed by the eighteen Taibao from Pao Gehui. People from various sects who come to participate in the gathering of heroes live here.

The business next to the restaurant is also the best, and it is surrounded day and night.

The tallest building is called Bai Pailou, which is controlled by Zhao Shentong, the head of the Eighteen Taibao, and all dignitaries are welcomed and sent there.

But today, a beggar straightened his back and strode into the building.

Near the Bai Pailou, in a simple tea shop, two young men in long robes were sitting in the corner.

The man in brown clothes whispered: "Brother Xu, we seem to be being targeted."

The teahouse was full, and apart from them, there were a dozen tea guests who were enjoying tea leisurely, but their eyes seemed to be glancing at them.

Xu Wenjiu nodded and said: "We are indeed being targeted. This time our Xu family's vanguard troops sent into Yuzhou have already lost two of them. It seems that the other party has been prepared for it."

"I think it's better for us to evacuate Yuzhou first. The current situation is very evil."

"Let's go?" Xu Wenjiu shook his head, "In a few days, a meeting of heroes will be held. Yuzhou officers, soldiers and people from all walks of life will gather on the river. The city is empty. It is a good opportunity for us to unite all the rebels to occupy Yuzhou. . Now all the major families are scrambling to contact various anti-kings to prepare for big things.

In this world, the Ming Dynasty was trapped south of the two rivers, and Yuzhou was its lifeline of transportation.It can be said that whoever helps the Shaanxi rebels to occupy the city and move down the river first will be able to control the Ming Dynasty in the future... Therefore, during this period, there must be no one in the city to respond.As for how to deal with these clowns, let’s take it one step at a time. "

"That's all." The man in brown clothes sighed: "I still have two things I don't understand."

"please say."

"What is our purpose in this drama?"

Xu Wenjiu smiled and poured a cup of tea for him, "The first goal must be to survive; secondly, since the shooting camps are fighting against each other and there are four countries confronting each other, there will definitely be a conflict of forces in the later stage, so occupy one country first to gain a foothold. , it must be right.”

The man in brown clothes felt ashamed and said, "I would also like to thank Brother Xu for being willing to support me. Without the help of your family, a performer with no foundation like me would just be a headless fly."

Xu Wenjiu waved his hand and said: "Brother Zhang, you're welcome. Now that we, the acting gods, have just arrived and are surrounded by enemies from all sides, we should be united. In the final analysis, we all come from the state of Chi and are a family. The real enemy is the acting gods of the other three battalions. By."

"Brother Xu, I heard before that there are many fifth-level and sixth-level powerful seniors from various families who have entered this competition. Why haven't I seen them yet? If they were here, they would be able to do it in a matter of seconds. Destroy a country! Why bother?"

Xu Wenjiu sneered, "If those powerful people compete with me on the same stage, then what's the difference between us low-level god actors and ants? Although they are also here, the battlefield is elsewhere..."

Before he finished speaking, all the tea guests had quietly stood up, and the two men were slowly approaching with murderous intent.

Xu Wenjiu's face darkened, he put down his tea cup and said calmly: "Brother, the wind is getting tight."

"Walk."

A loud shout suddenly rang out from the crowd: "Kill them, don't leave any one alive!"

Dr. Tea was boiling water when there was a sudden loud noise and the stove was instantly overturned.

For a moment, the cramped tea shop was filled with the shadow of knives, all kinds of weapons were slashing towards the corners, white wood chips were flying, and all the tables, chairs and benches were chopped into pieces!
However, the siege was in vain. Xu Wenjiu and the others used escape spells and escaped long before the crisis came.

In Yuzhou City, a remote narrow alley was filled with fishy stench, and the sound of desperate moans filled the air.

"Dad...don't die, dad..."

"Die quickly! Die quickly! Keep your legs and leave your ribs to me!"

……

The ground was covered with maggots and dead people, with only a few living people dying.

Suddenly, two figures emerged from the ground out of thin air, immediately frightening the few who were still alive to death.

Xu Wenjiu said calmly: "Just these ordinary people want to capture us."

"This is already the third time." The man in brown clothes said with lingering fear, "This is not the way to go. Brother Xu, should we think of a way to fight back?"

"No." Xu Wenjiu immediately objected, "We don't know the strength of the enemy, so rushing into action is not a good idea. It is important to investigate in secret and find out the details of the enemy..."

"I'm afraid you have no chance."

Two tall figures suddenly appeared and stood side by side, blocking the entrance of the alley.

[The actors compete on the same stage, and the information unfolds! 】

[Ghost Scroll·Painted Skin Ghost·Qian Xia (Zhiguo camp)]

[Renjuan·Taiping Cult Leader·Yu Feng (Zhiguo camp)]

Xu Wenjiu was stunned, "The God Actor...what do you two mean by this? Have you defected to the imperial court?" He put his hands behind his back and as he was speaking, a purple talisman was held in his palm.

Yu Feng said: "Your Excellency already knows, so why bother asking again? Xu Wenjiu...since he is a member of the Xu family, why don't we leave our lives here today?"

Xu Wenjiu smiled and said: "Then let's see if you two little brats have what it takes...Brother Zhang, kill them."

The man in brown clothes had a tense face and nodded slowly.

In the narrow alley, the battle was about to break out. The four people's footsteps were filled with wind, and they suddenly rushed towards each other like frightened carriages and horses.

Xu Wen didn't squint his eyes, and just when he was about to use the talisman, a sudden and violent murderous intention came from his side.

At the critical moment, the man in brown clothes rebelled, paused with a sound, held a long crystal sword in his palm, and stabbed Xu Wen's nine ribs fiercely.

"Brother Zhang, you!"

Xu Wenjiu didn't have time to be stunned. He held the sharp sword with his backhand, and a ball of blood instantly burst out from his palm.

At the same time, Qian Xia and Yu Feng landed on him.

Under attack from three sides, Xu Wenjiu's bones were instantly shattered and he fell to the ground like a dead dog, with blood spurting from his mouth.

He bit the elixir hidden in his back molars, and after recovering from his injuries, he immediately ran away.

The man in brown clothes sneered, "I've made a prison, you can't escape."

Is it going to be folded here today?
Xu Wenjiu's heart was full of murderous intent. Facing the three people approaching step by step, he already wanted to die with them.

He secretly used his magical power and spoke to delay time, "Zhang Zimei, our Xu family treats you very well, and you actually eat everything in?"

The man in brown clothes said calmly: "Brother Xu, I call those who know the current affairs a hero. Your Xu family wants me to work for you. Since I am selling my life, why don't I find a good master? Don't think about dying. Fight, you can't escape today."

Xu Wenjiu sneered, "It's like a dog."

"Don't talk nonsense to him, let's fight it quickly."

The three of them forced Xu Wenjiu to retreat continuously.

Yu Feng roared, his palms condensed with claws, and he was about to take action when suddenly a stream of light flashed from outside the alley, and with a pop, it pierced Xu Wenjiu's chest, and his blood poured all over Xu Wenjiu.

"Who!"

Zhang Zimei and the two turned around in shock. Xu Wenjiu took advantage of the situation and jumped up. He turned the talisman into a knife in his hand and cut off the two people's heads by the roots, smashing the bones to the ground.

Immediately, he looked at the person who came, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, my friend, for your help."

The person who came was a woman, wearing a green brocade robe embroidered with lotus flowers. Her face was like snow, and she was extremely charming.

She returned the courtesy and said, "My Excellency, Pei Xianyu, there is no need for you to be polite. This is not the place to talk. Please come with me."

Xu Wenjiu frowned slightly when he heard this.

Pei?Pei family?

At this time, the three corpses on the ground disappeared and turned into a dazzling array of elixirs and props, piled into several hills, overflowing with jewels and jewels.

Xu Wenjiu looked at the balance of his magic talismans and saw that they had increased by more than [-] out of thin air. "Miss Pei, please accept all these treasures."

Pei Xianyu was not polite, rolled up her sleeves, and put all these priceless items into her pocket, "Let's go."

Xu Wenjiu shook his head and said: "I still have some friends in the city, so I won't bother the girl. If you need help in the future, please feel free to speak."

Pei Xianyu frowned slightly, "How long has it been since you were still thinking about intrigues? Mr. Xu, after what happened just now, you still don't understand that the situation of the people in our family is precarious now. If we continue to be wary of each other, I'm afraid everyone will be in trouble." I can’t get to Yuzhou City.”

Xu Wenjiu's complexion turned green and white at the words, "I made the girl laugh."

"That's fine, you can go wherever you want." Pei Xianyu glanced at him, "But there is something I need to tell you."

"Girl, please speak."

"Many of our comrades in Yuzhou City are now behind bars. I have found out where they are being held. I am contacting other performers to find a way to rescue them. We will conspire against big things at the foot of Gele Mountain tonight. If you If you don’t want our god actors to be infiltrated into a sieve, please come and talk about it.”

Having said that, Pei Xianyu didn't stay for long. He turned around, leaving only a lotus seed on the spot, and he disappeared out of thin air.

Xu Wenjiu stepped forward and picked up the lotus seeds, frowning thoughtfully.

……

"Come, all heads and seniors, it is my blessing to live in this white archway. I, Zhao Shentong, have a toast!"

In the Tianzihao private room on the top floor of the white arch building, the table was filled with delicacies from the mountains and seas, and famous celebrities in the world were sitting around the table.

The man in gold robes with a red mole on his eyebrows stood up with a laugh while holding a cup, showing dignity in every move he made.

He drank the strong wine in the cup, and everyone hurriedly agreed, "Zhao Bantou has served Brother Pao for many years, and he is the eldest son of Master Ao... If nothing else, in this gathering of heroes, Master Ao will Pass the position of alliance leader to Leader Zhao!"

Zhao Shentong hurriedly waved his hand, "Seniors, I have shown my love to you and worked for my adopted father. This is the filial piety that an adopted son should fulfill. From now on, no matter who in the Brother Pao Association will be the leader, I hope that all the seniors will help me."

"That's natural, come on, drink!"

While everyone was drinking and chatting happily, a young man suddenly knocked on the door and walked in. He walked to Zhao Shentong's side and whispered, "Sir, a beggar broke into the building and said he has something important to do with you."

Zhao Shentong nodded and said, "But the elder of the Beggar Clan?"

"No, just a stinky beggar, a water rat begging for food in a swill bucket."

"Okay, take me to see him."

Zhao Shentong secretly thought that if an ordinary beggar didn't have some confidence, he would definitely not dare to take a step into this white archway.

He said goodbye to all the celebrities for the time being, and went to a spare room on the second floor with the servant.

Inside the house, the one-eyed beggar was holding a fruit plate and eating a lot. When he saw the tall man pushing the door and entering, he immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Master Zhao! Jia Dafa, a disciple of the Beggar Clan, pays homage to Master Zhao!"

Zhao Shentong laughed and stepped forward to help him up. "There is no need to be polite. We are all brothers who live in the same world. There is no distinction between them!"

Jia Dafa was moved to tears when he saw that the famous Uncle Zhao had no airs.

Zhao Shentong sat down on the chair and asked him to sit down as well, "Tell me, what trouble do you have with me? If you are short of money and food, just say a word to the counter."

Jia Dafa wiped his nose and said hurriedly: "Sir, I'm interrupting this time because I have something urgent to ask you."

"Oh? Please speak."
