When I was in Qin Dynasty, I lost contact with the wave

Chapter 574 Liu Ji, did you dig up Luonan Jun’s ancestral grave?

Daze Township, in Mangzhonggang, the headquarters of Shennongtang

A man of short stature but with extremely gorgeous clothes wears a mask with red as the main color on his face. The eyebrows and the corners of the mouth are outlined with pen and ink on the mask. It is obvious that the owner of this mask is in a very happy mood at the moment.

And he is the confidant of the peasant hero Kui Tian Guang. The Zhu family, the leader of the Shennong Hall, is known as "in front of thousands of people". The Shennong Hall under his command is well-informed and is now the most powerful of the six peasant halls.

"Brother Liu Ji, what do you think of our Shennong Hall?" Zhu Jiale smiled cheerfully, without any airs of a farm hall master. Although he gave people a smooth feeling, his words were sincere.

And the man whom the Zhu family calls Liu Ji, although he is now twenty years old and has just been crowned, his face is quite mature. The bangs hanging down on both sides cover part of his eyebrows, and there is always a trace of hair hanging on the corner of his mouth under the mustache. A nonchalant smile.

Wearing a gorgeous purple-red dress, lined with a piece of silver soft armor, and with a gold, two green and three jade pendants on his waist, he looked like a kid from a wealthy family.

"What Brother Zhu said, who doesn't know that Shennong Hall is the most powerful church in the farm family, and look at the tens of thousands of disciples working hard, tsk tsk!"

Liu Bang rubbed his chin a little exaggeratedly and couldn't help but sigh: "In this troubled world that has been burning for seven hundred years, I never expected to see such a peaceful scene at the Shennong Hall in Daze Mountain. , As expected of Brother Zhu!”

"Hahahahahaha! Brother Liu Ji, what a mouth!" The masked smile on the Zhu family's face seemed to be getting brighter, and laughter came from under the mask, "They say that my Zhu family is a thousand people with thousands of faces, and eight faces are exquisite. You brother Liu Ji is the real person with thousands of faces."

The Zhu family could see that there was an element of praise in Liu Bang's words, but as long as you are a human being, who doesn't like to hear other people's compliments? Even if it is flattery, it feels good in the heart.

Furthermore, Liu Bang's words were not entirely flattering. From the bright look on his face, it was clear that Liu Bang was indeed a little surprised and yearned for the paradise in this troubled world.

Moreover, this Liu Bang did suit his taste, he was bold and unrestrained, yet tactful and informal. It just so happened that Liu Bang was free from Zhang Er's command and was traveling around.

The Zhu family glanced at the plain-looking young man behind him with a garden bun. That was his adopted son Zhu Zhong.

Originally, Zhu Zhong was just an inconspicuous figure among the tens of thousands of disciples of Shennong Hall. He accidentally noticed that Zhu Zhong had a steady mind that was far beyond ordinary people and had plenty of patience. Unfortunately, he was too honest and not good at words, especially in the fields. After Zhang Ji married Luonan Jun of Qin, he became even more taciturn, which was a fatal problem for a hall master.

However, Chen Sheng, who has recently ascended to the throne of the leader of the Kuei Hall, gave him an inspiration. Chen Sheng, who is also not good at words and good at handling the affairs of the hall, but has superb martial arts and is quite prestigious, is paired with Wu Kuang, who is sharp-tongued and good at handling the affairs of the hall. , but it made Kuei Hall develop even more rapidly, and the two of them complemented each other well.

If Zhu Zhong is given a helper, such as the sociable and all-round Liu Bang, then Zhu Zhong's path to taking over Shennongtang will be smoother in the future.

So, the Zhu family spoke.

"Brother Liu Ji, now that you are wandering around the country without a fixed address, and you are so attached to my brother, why don't you come to my Shennong Hall and hang a five-star bead grass for fun?"

The Zhu family and Liu Bang looked at each other, and the red masks on their faces changed to a flattering smile.

Liu Bang was stunned, obviously not understanding what the five-star pearl grass meant to the farmer. However, Zhu Zhong, who was behind the Zhu family, was already feeling as if his heart was turning upside down.

In farm families, pearl grass is a status symbol for farm disciples. The greater the number of pearl grass, the higher the status in the farm family. The farmer's leader and the six elders are nine-star pearl grass; the leader of the sixth hall of the farm family is seven-star pearl grass; the six-star pearl grass Zhucao is equivalent to the general steward of a hall, and his status is equivalent to the deputy hall leader, such as Wu Kuang of Kuei Hall.

The five-star pearl grass corresponds to the mainstays in the hall, such as the mute slave of Tian Meng's Lieshan Hall, and the Zhao Guo killer Bone Demon who was just recruited by Tian Hu to join Chiyou Hall.

But he, Zhu Zhong, had worked for Shennong Hall for many years, was the adopted son of the Zhu family, and was only a five-star pearl grass. How could Liu Bang He De achieve the status that he had worked hard for many years to achieve?

Could it be that... the adoptive father planned to cultivate someone else as his heir because he had not forgotten the grief of Tian Mi marrying someone else?

Zhu Zhong remained silent, but the veins on his forearms and the fingertips that turned white when pressed revealed his inner thoughts.

The Zhu family turned their backs to Zhu Zhong and were focused on paving the way for their adopted son's future. They did not notice anything wrong with Zhu Zhong. However, Liu Bang, who was good at observing people's words and emotions, noticed it and waved his rejection with a smile.

"Brother Zhu, I, Liu Ji, am a little bastard. Not to mention that I want to travel around. Even if I want to settle down, I should go home and honor my father." Liu Bang smiled handsomely, and he had a bit of the free and easy temperament of a prodigal son. "But if one day my little brother is in trouble, please ask Brother Zhu to reward me with a meal."

Noticing Zhu Zhong's attitude towards him, Liu Bang naturally gave up the few thoughts of staying, and had a conflict with the adopted son of the leader of the family. It was a big trouble for both the Zhu family and him.

"It's a pity, it's such a pity, brother Liu Ji..."

"It's a disaster! It's a disaster!"

Just when the Zhu family was still feeling emotional, a middle-aged man wearing Chinese clothes and hanging seven-star pearl grass came in.

The person who came was none other than Situ Wanli, the master of the Siyue Hall of the farmhouse. He was wearing a dark green outer robe. A black dragon-shaped group was painted in the middle of the golden lining, and green auspicious clouds were embroidered on the edge of the lining. It looks quite luxurious.

But Situ Wanli's body was too thin and could not support the broad frame of this gorgeous dress. He had an oval face, a goatee and a mustache coexisting on his face. She has straight hair, white in the middle and black on the sides. She stands just past her age, but looks like she has entered middle age. Siyuetang's strength among farmers is only slightly stronger than that of the weakest Gonggongtang, so Situ Wanli acts the most low-key, but has a good relationship with Shennongtang. He often visits Shennongtang, so frequently that even the disciples of Shennongtang hardly treat him. The leader of Siyue Hall has fortified himself.

"Brother Zhu, Brother Liu Ji, why are you so leisurely?"

Situ Wanli looked anxious, with a few drops of sweat still remaining on his forehead. He wiped the sweat from his forehead with the corner of his sleeve, looked at Liu Bang and said, "Brother Liu Ji, you are wanted in the net!"

"what!"

Liu Bang was so shocked that he dropped the tea cup in his hand to the ground.

"No... no... no, I... I, Liu Jihe, can't do anything. Why are you wanted in the net? Why are you wanted in the net?"

Although Luo Wang's reputation over the years is no longer as bad as it was before Zhang Ji entered the Qin Dynasty, Luo Wang's prestige has become increasingly frightening.

Having been wanted by Luo Wang in the past, there is still a way to survive by asking for help from the Mohist family. Even if the Mohist family does not provide protection, at least Luo Wang cannot be omniscient and omnipotent. At worst, he can hide in the deep mountains and old forests.

But now Luo Wang's reputation has improved, and he and the Mo family are no longer hostile, and they have even turned enemies into friends, sharing information with each other.

The alliance between the most powerful official armed forces and Jianghu armed forces in the world is simply unavoidable.

In addition, because of the Great Qin Academy, which is about to be completed after several years, all the scholars will not, let alone miss this opportunity to spread the teachings of each school, and will not cover up the important criminals who are wanted in the net.

No, let alone shielding him, it would be an act of kindness not to directly arrest him and send him to a trap.

The Zhu family on the side was also quite shocked. The red mask on his face was instantly replaced by a blue mask. The expression on the mask also changed from laughter to sadness and shock. He quickly stood up and asked: "Brother Situ, what news do you have?" Where did you get it?”

"It's not because of prying eyes, but because Luo Wang took the initiative to tell me."

Situ Wanli sighed. He was able to get this news not because Siyuetang's ability to gather information surpassed Shennongtang, which was always the most well-informed, but because Siyuetang had trade relations with the Qin State all year round, including snares.

Mo Ya, the newly promoted leader of the Korean branch of Luo Wang, informed him of the news when he was trading with Siyuetang, hoping that he could mobilize people to search for Liu Bang's traces.

"Brother Liu Ji, I have some friendship with Mr. Luonan of the Qin State. Shennongtang has done a lot of grain and grass trade with the Qin State in recent years. Please stay in the Shennongtang for now. I will send someone to protect you and treat you well with me. We will make a final decision after returning from Xianyang."

The Zhu family did not choose to hand Liu Bang over. He did not think that Liu Bang had any crimes for which Luowang was wanted. He speculated that he had just bumped into the top management of Luowang at some time, or that some minor disputes led to him being wanted, and he planned to go to Xianyang to sell his face for Liu Bang. intercede.

In fact, in the hands of the Zhu family, a non-Tian family member, Shennongtang grew to the point where it became the strongest of the six halls. This was all because of the Zhu family's bold and righteous character. He would often protect some wanted criminals who had offended the powerful. Using the method of exchanging benefits or selling face for favors to exchange for the safety of the other party, he has won the praise and support of many heroes and knights.

"Hey, Brother Zhu, you don't have to go to Xianyang."

Situ Wanli shook his head and sighed heavily again.

"This time it is Luo Wang's killing order. It is the Tianzi-level mission personally issued by Luo Nanjun, the leader of Luo Wang. Even the four master-level combat powers of Zhanri, Black and White Xuanjian, Liujian Slave and Ba Linglong All the Tianzi first-class killers were dispatched, just to take the life of brother Liu Ji."

"Liu Ji...Brother Liu Ji, you...you..."

Zhu Jia had forgotten to change the blue mask on his face. He looked at Liu Bang blankly and pointed at Liu Bang who couldn't speak a complete sentence. He thought he was completely confused at this moment.

He knew the temper of Lord Luonan quite well. He was a master with a clear distinction between grudges and grudges, and he was quite tolerant. He never beat or scolded his maids and slaves. Is it possible that he could be forced to issue a killing order to Liu Bang? Did Liu Bang dig up the ancestral grave of Lord Luonan?

However, even though the Zhu family was completely confused by this killing order, he still had no intention of giving up on Liu Bang so easily.

The basis of his Shennongtang foundation is to protect wanted criminals who have offended the powerful. If Liu Bang is handed over so easily, he will definitely become a laughing stock in the world and will also shake the knights who support him.

However, the Zhu family, who was also good at observing words and emotions, once again ignored the people around them.

An intriguing smile appeared on the faces of Zhu Zhong and Situ Wanli respectively.

The two cunning foxes looked at each other, their noses twitching slightly, as if they smelled the scent of the same kind.
