Chapter 164 Slums

   “Yuanhao.”

  A thin whisper sounded.

  Xu Xinyao thought about it beautifully, as if she was looking for a memory about this name in her memory.

  After a while, she looked at Xu Yuan and asked softly:

   “Third brother, why has Xinyao never heard of this person at the “Sui Hui”?”

  There are many branches under the Prime Minister’s Mansion, where information, money, rice, and equipment workshops are gathered together. Among them, the higher-level managers have to come to Beijing to report every three years. Once a year, but because some states and counties are too far away and the journey is troublesome, after the situation stabilized, it was changed to once every three years, the time is the same as when the imperial court officials go to Beijing to report their duties.

  Something like a company annual meeting.

  Among these people, many important characters will come to Xiangguo Mansion to meet Xu Yinhe.

  I didn’t know it when I was a child, I just felt it was lively, but when I grew up, I learned a lot.

  After hearing this, Xu Yuan rolled his eyes:

  ”Father is not going to let you take over, and there are so many people under him, how can it be possible for you to know everything?”

  Xu Xinyao curled her lips: “Then third brother, do you know?”

   “.” Xu Yuan.

   After a moment of silence, Xu Yuan shrugged:

   “Now I know.”

   paused,

  He glanced sideways at Ran Qingmo, and then said calmly:

   “However, people from the Black Scale Guard contacted me before and said that this Yuan Hao seems to be very dangerous.”

   “Dangerous?”

   “Dangerous?” Xu Xinyao’s eyes were full of confusion.

  Xu Yuan combined past life memory and previously understood information in a low voice:

   “He likes to kill people.”

  “.”

  Xu Xinyao’s eyes widened slightly.

  Xu Yuan leaned back gently on the rough cushion in the carriage, and said softly:

  ”In five years, Emperor Xuanqing of Huai’anzhou united with King Xiang to rebel. This person followed Zhenxihou to suppress the rebellion. As a result, he directly killed all the soldiers who surrendered to him, and cut off their heads to make Jingguan .”

  Xu Xinyao hesitated a little and asked:

   “But it’s because there’s not enough food, or it’s not easy to control?”

  In addition to the general security army, Dayan’s regular troops are all cultivators and apprentices. Regardless of the imperial court or the sect, even if this kind of army has no weapons, it will scream if you don’t pay attention.

  Xu Yuan shook his head: “No, he just likes to kill people.”

  Xu Xinyao was silent for a while, and said in a low voice:

  ”Since he likes killing so much, why not arrange for him to go to the Wanxing Mountains?”

   “Xinyao.”

  Xu Yuan looked into each other’s eyes and said word by word:

   “Yuan Hao likes to kill people, not other creatures.”

  “.”

  Silence.

  Xu Xinyao frowned: “Why?”

   “How do I know why?”

  Xu Yuan shrugged: “It’s probably just a pervert, but this pervert seems to have a strong ability to lead troops, heh, only my father dares to use this kind of person.”

  Xu Xinyao didn’t speak anymore.

  Xu Yuan didn’t say much when he saw this, he raised his hand and knocked on the carriage of the carriage.

  The crisp sound of “Tuk Tuk” fell two breaths, the wooden window in front was pulled open, and then a slightly flattering male voice came:

   “My lord, what can I order?”

  Xu Yuan asked directly: “Do you know Pingshui Bay?”

  This monster carriage was bought in a post station more than a hundred miles outside Vientiane City in order to find a rest merchant. For a while, the monster is just a rabbit-eared horse. This kind of monster horse can’t be guided by the mind and soul, so he hired a snake driver by the way.

  The groom was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and then said with some hesitation in his voice:

   “The little old man does know this place, but.”

   “But?”

   “It’s facing the pier, and there are many schools of thought over there, and it’s very chaotic. I’m afraid there will be trouble for the two girls to go there, and they will have to pay money.”

  Xu Yuan glanced at Ran Qingmo and Xu Xinyao who were opposite, and smiled:

   “Really? It’s okay, you can just drive there, and your money will be increased by 30%.”

  “.”

  The groom laughed twice when he heard the words, but his voice became more respectful:

   “Come on, you’ll be there in half an hour later.”

   After finishing speaking, the groom drove into the avenue where the beast carts were driving, and quickly ran towards the south of the city.

  Pingshui Bay.

  After coming out of Shuanma Village, Xu Yuan’s first reaction when he saw the scenery outside was chaos, which was more than a hundred times more chaotic than the train station he had seen when he was a child in his previous life.

  Yelling, yelling, fighting, talking and laughing, extremely noisy,

  There is an endless stream of passenger ships and merchant ships. Large cargo carriages drive out of the harbor and divert to various parts of the city. Some groups of porters sit on the shore and chat and laugh. Merchants, travelers , peddler, during which Xu Yuan also saw many sect disciples walking with swords.

  The periphery of the pier is a low and dense residential area, or slums.

  The dense buildings are twisted into twists, and the shanties and wooden houses are crooked. They are not as orderly as the gates of the city.

  walked all the way to the entrance of one of the alleyways in the slums, asked the way, and walked inside.

  Xu Yuan feels that this alley is very similar to the alley in the movie where knights kill people, narrow and dark.

  As it continued to deepen, it turned out that Xu Yuan’s idea was correct, because some bloodstains were occasionally visible on the soil on both sides of the road.

  But think about it, in this era, a slum that does not evaporate a few people every day is not a slum at all.

  Maybe because of the daytime, the men all go out to work, and occasionally there are only some women sitting at the door washing clothes or chatting on both sides of the alley.

  However, most of these ladies seem to be surprised when they see the three people with the curtain fence. Seeing Xu Yuan and the three coming, watching Xu Yuan and the three disappear, and then doing what they should do, here The residents are basically born and bred. Growing up in this kind of slum, how could it be possible that they have never seen the market.

  Turning a few corners, the alleyway was completely silent, only the slight sound of boots stepping on the dirt.

  Suddenly,

   “Third brother.”

  Xu Xinyao suddenly made a sound, using sound transmission.

   “Huh?”

  Xu Yuan, who was walking in the front, looked sideways slightly: “What?”

  Xu Xinyao suddenly asked in a low voice for no reason:

   “Didn’t father say earlier that we are only here to negotiate deterrence?”

  Xu Yuan smiled and said: “Of course, you heard it before, father has no intention of war for the time being.”

  Xu Xinyao said in a low voice:

   “But that Yuan Hao set his destination here.”

  “.”

  Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows.

  It seems that these four sisters are really not stupid.

  If you want to hide, Yuan Hao will most likely set the meeting place in a large wilderness outside Vientiane City.

  If you want to entertain Xu Yuan, the boss who came over by air, you have to find a decent inn, not to mention the top restaurant Goulan, right?

  Yuan Hao was recruited by Xu Yinhe himself, so he cannot be a fool.

  The reason for this kind of place is also very simple, the more chaotic the place, the easier it is for people to hide.

   After a pause, Xu Yuan asked softly:

   “Do you think this is inappropriate?”

  Xu Xinyao felt a little uneasy:

   “Third brother, you just said that Yuan Hao is a lunatic. If he hides his soldiers here, there will probably be trouble.”

  Xu Yuan nodded:

   “Are you worried that he will not respect his father’s order? Directly attack the Wanxiang sect for selfish desire?”

   “Yes.” Xu Xinyao nodded.

  Xu Yuan waved his hand:

   “No problem.”

   “But.”

   “Okay, even if you don’t believe in Yuan Hao, whom you have never met, you still have to believe in our father’s vision, right?”

  Xu Yuan shook his head, looking at the narrow alleys around:

   “I think Yuan Hao did nothing wrong.

  ”Xin Yao

  ”There is a big difference between negotiating with a sword on the other side’s neck and putting the sword on the other party’s neck.”

  After being quiet for a while, Xu Xinyao reminded in a low voice:

   “But there is a large moat in the city.”

  Xu Yuan shrugged:

   “Don’t ask me, I don’t know, you can ask that Yuan Hao directly later.”

   “Okay.”

   Didn’t speak any more, walked all the way, walked through a corner again, Xu Yuan and the three came to a rather weird alley.

  Some women with inferior rouge sitting at the door of the room.

   Seeing such a street, Xu Yuan kept walking, but the corners of his eyes twitched unconsciously.

  When these women saw the man coming, their eyes lit up at the same time, but after seeing the slender figures of the two women behind the other party under the curtain and tulle, they all recovered with interest Lazy attitude before.

  Of course, there are some who still try their best to wink at Xu Yuan.

  In case people are full of delicacies, they want to eat some whole grain steamed buns.

   Silently stepping forward,

  Ran Qingmo looked at these scantily clad women with puzzled eyes.

  Xu Xinyao lowered her eyes and refused to look.

  Passing along the way, some doors are closed, and there are one or two men waiting outside some closed doors, talking some indecent jokes.

  However, there are no people with bad eyes to tease Xu Xinyao and Ran Qingmo, because they are usually the disciples of the sect with this kind of dress, because if they are killed, there is a high probability that they will be killed. How many taels of silver depends on the mood of the other party.

  Among them, there was a man who saw the three of them walking away, and opened his mouth with a lewd|smile to whisper something, but was stopped by the fellows beside him:

   “Master Immortal has sharp ears, just say it if you miss.”

  This street is very long,

   Near the end, the corners of Xu Yuan’s eyes twitched uncontrollably again.

  He saw a team, a very long team, about twenty people, most of them were dressed in cloth and silk, and there were a few low-level warriors, standing silently without speaking, It should be unfamiliar.

  Seeing these people, Xu Yuan glanced at the closed door with a strange expression.

  I was thinking,

  Ran Qingmo tugged at the corner of Xu Yuan’s clothes:

   “Xu Yuan.”

  Xu Yuan replied softly:

   “What’s wrong?”

  Ran Qingmo looked at the closed door and asked:

   “Well what are they doing?”

   “Aren’t you intentional soul?”

   “Master said, when walking outside, you can’t use your mind and soul to spy on others.” Ran Qingmo replied clearly.

  ”He’s right.” Xu Yuan nodded and withdrew his mind: “It’s better not to look at this kind of thing.”

   “Then do you know what they are doing?” Ran Qingmo asked.

  Xu Yuan shook his head without hesitation:

   “I don’t know.”

   “poof”

Xu Xinyao on the side laughed out loud.

  Xu Yuan glanced back at her.

  Xu Xinyao pouted.

  Ran Qingmo looked at the brother and sister suspiciously.

  Xu Yuan coughed lightly:

   “Okay, I will teach you when I have a chance later, forget it now.”

  Under the curtain, Ran Qingmo blinked her beautiful eyes, and nodded gently:

   “OK.”

  As the three of them walked by,

  In that team, a warrior quietly left the team and followed Xu Yuan and the others.

   Send, a little card text
