Factory owner is king

Chapter 116 The Beginning

The human skin mask is one of the most terrifying things in Xu Ruyi's heart.

The power of this thing, as long as it is used in the right place, can be hundreds of times stronger than any weapon.Think about it, the abbot of Shaolin brought his disciples to a desperate place, surrounded by countless enemies, and then the abbot tore off a mask from his face and turned into another person. What kind of scene should this be.

The power of the human skin mask does not lie in killing people, but in killing one's heart.Its existence makes people see that all trust is gone, and even appearance can't be trusted, so what else can they believe?
Xu Ruyi said leisurely: "Even if the Jinzhen Shen family has a few human skin masks, they will be damned, let alone they can still make them."

"I believe you also understand the meaning of this thing." Hua Pengfei said softly: "When the news that the Jinzhen family could make human skin masks came out, it immediately caused an uproar. Then all the sects in the world jointly staged a battle between good and evil, both overtly and covertly. . And the location of the decisive battle is in the eastern suburbs of Luoyang."

"Joint performance? The eastern suburbs of Luoyang?" Xu Ruyi smiled sinisterly, "Let me guess, Jinzhen Shen's family is near there."

Hua Pengfei nodded and sighed: "It's a pity that the hard work of several generations of the Shen family has been ruined in one fell swoop. But..."

"But what?"

"My uncle made a secret move back then and led the Tianmen to destroy the power of nine bulls and two tigers, but he saved a trace of the blood of the Shen family, as well as several elders. It's a pity that the practice of the human skin mask has been lost again."

"It's really a pity," Xu Ruyi said regretfully.

"These are what my uncle told me when I was a child. Now the Golden Needle Shen family is hiding in the Shiwan Mountains, and I am here this time..." Hua Pengfei moved Shen Hongxian's hand in and out. I explained my requirements and my difficulties in detail.

After hearing this, Xu Ruyi frowned.

Seeing Xu Ruyi's frown, Hua Pengfei said again: "I've already settled for the money in these four things, but it's impossible for the other two of us to do it, and we can only think about it..."

"Looking for the hall masters of Tianmen?" Xu Ruyi continued.

"Hmm. What do you think?" Hua Pengfei asked.

"This..." Xu Ruyi was silent, hesitating in her heart.It stands to reason that before Ren Xiao came to the Shen family, if he had meant it, he would have left a message for anyone in Tianmen, and he would not have picked it up at the door of the chicken feather shop in Chengdu City.But since Ren Xiao didn't tell anyone, is it possible that he is worried about someone in Tianmen, or is there some other reason?It was because of this consideration that he didn't tell Jiang Xingmai about Ren Xiao.

Now that Hua Pengfei brought up this matter, Xu Ruyi was really embarrassed.Among Shen Hongxian's four things, as long as he is given time, he is sure to complete two things, that is, let the Shen family come back out of the rivers and lakes, and get a Shaolin Great Redemption Pill.After all, he has his back against the imperial court, no matter how dangerous the world is, it is hard to beat the majestic master of the imperial court.But it's different for the seven masters with a six-year-old skill. After all, they are helping to treat Ren Xiao's injuries, so they can't be trusted.It is impossible for a young person to have the skill of sixty years.After thinking about it, it seems that only the 24 hall masters of Tianmen can meet the conditions.

"Why are you still hesitating?" Hua Pengfei wondered.In his view, this is a matter of course.

"You don't know." Xu Ruyi smiled bitterly, and then simply stated his doubts, and then said: "In fact, the only place where Tianmen can be used is the matter of the seven masters. As for the others, give me some time. It can be done.”

"But Tianmen is faster!" Hua Pengfei frowned.

"I don't think so." Xu Ruyi waved her hand and said: "Since the Golden Needle Shen family is related to the human skin mask, no one can protect them with the power of the Jianghu alone, not even Shaolin Wudang."

"But Tianmen..."

"Not even Tianmen!" Xu Ruyi said decisively: "The only one who can protect them is the imperial court. But no one can influence the will of the current emperor. It can be said that as long as the emperor is still there, the Shen family can only stay In the mountains.”

"Then when will it be the boss?" Hua Pengfei slapped the table irritably and sighed.

"Soon, soon." Xu Ruyi murmured.In history, Zhu Yuanzhang only lived to the 31st year of Hongwu, but this year is the 26th year of Hongwu.and. . .

Xu Ruyi thought of Shao Yuanjie.

What else could the emperor do with the Taoist priests besides making elixirs to seek immortality?Even if Shao Yuanjie quits, he is not the only Taoist priest in the world.If you take too much golden elixir, you may not be able to live to 31 years.

Everything is because of his own arrival.

. . . . . .

In the Nuan Pavilion of Wuying Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang leaned tiredly on the dragon chair, his eyes closed tightly, and an unnatural blush appeared on his face.

Lao Zhang stood aside, looking nervously at Zhu Yuanzhang's expression, the fine beads of sweat on his face seemed extraordinarily nervous.

"Okay!" With a loud shout, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly opened his eyes and looked up to the sky with a smile: "Hahahahaha, okay, okay. It is indeed a panacea."

He stood up and took a few steps to the center of the Hall of Martial Heroes, and then danced with both fists, creating strong winds.Both feet stomped on the ground, leaving deep footprints one after another on the bluestone ground without a sound.

In the darkness, Liu Xiaogan stared at Zhu Yuanzhang's dancing figure, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.But Lao Zhang knelt on the ground again, with his head on the ground, motionless.

Zhu Yuanzhang's current state is very wrong, it seems that he is just excited, but there is still a hint of madness.I don't know if my mind is still there.

'How did that happen? Lao Zhang secretly wondered: "The little eunuch who tried the elixir before was just in a better mental state. Why?" . . '

"Hahahaha!" Zhu Yuanzhang laughed again, and then he jumped up and sat on the dragon chair again, reached out and picked up a memorial, read ten lines at a glance, then wrote quickly, then picked up another one, reviewed it, Another one.In just half an hour, all thirty memorials on the desk were approved, and the efficiency was ten times higher than before!
"Old Zhang." Zhu Yuanzhang put down the last memorial in his hand and said.

"Old slave is here." Lao Zhang kowtowed to the ground and stood up.

"Who said that the Quanzhen Sect has fallen, and martial arts are two points. In my opinion, this cultivator is much better than those who practice martial arts in Huashan. They are still very capable!" Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard and praised a few words, and then ordered. "The elixir of Wan Congxin has been practiced well, and I am very satisfied. But he is an outsider after all, and I can't reward him. Later, you secretly reward him with 1000 taels of silver from my internal treasury, and then tell him." , if he can really cultivate the elixir of immortality, I will reward you a lot!"

It really deserves to be born as a poor child. After eating the "elixir" trained by others, he was rewarded with 1000 taels of silver.

,. . . . . . . . .

One day in mid-July of the 26th year of Hongwu.

The heavy rain was pouring down, and the black clouds were overwhelming the city. Only the occasional flashes of lightning could bring some light to the dim Nanjing city.This rain was very evil, a rare heavy rain, and I haven't seen it for several years.Stunning and at the same time a touch of depressing.

On Sishui Street, more than a dozen Jinyiwei dressed in flying fish suits, with spring knives embroidered on their waists and hips, wearing bamboo hats and coir raincoats, surrounded the gate of a jewelry store.Through the thick rain curtain, one can vaguely see the words on the plaque at the gate: "Shengchun Jewelry Store."

No matter how loud the rain was, it couldn't cover the screams of shouting and crying in the house, as well as the sound of tables, chairs and benches being pushed to the ground.

The owner of the jewelry store had a sad look on his face, and he knelt on the ground and begged Qianhu, the Jin Yiwei uncle in front of him.

"Uncle, Uncle, this villain's jewelry business has been in business for ten years, and it has never been responsible for its duties, and there has been no mess in the slightest. What are you doing?"

"Which one of the Great Ming's Laws has the villain violated, you have to make it clear."

"But the villain offended which noble person, please give me a clear explanation..."

Xu Shi was annoyed by what the boss said, so Qianhu kicked the boss away on the ground, pulled out the long knife from his waist with his backhand, danced with the knife, and showed a vicious look: "You told me there is something for it? Huh? I also came here on an errand from above. If you have any questions, you can ask yourself when Mr. Jiang arrives. If you dare to talk too much, I will kill you for nothing! Hmph!"

The boss sat on the ground, covering his chest and coughing repeatedly. He sighed helplessly and sadly and wiped away tears: "What's going on? What's going on..."

At this moment, another group of brocade guards escorting a certain green cloth sedan chair stopped in front of the door.

The curtain of the car was lifted, and a big man in brocade clothes came down and walked into the jewelry store.

"My lord!" All Jin Yiwei knelt down and saluted.

"Get up." Jiang Huan waved his hand.

"Thank you, sir!" Everyone stood up from the ground.

"My lord." The former Jinyiwei Qianhu came up and said in a low voice: "My lord, you asked the little one to bring the brothers to look for that thing, but the brothers have already turned the place upside down, and they still haven't found it."

"My lord!" The boss has sharp ears and heard what Qianhu said. At this moment, he threw himself in front of Jiang Huan and kowtowed again and again: "What are you looking for, lord? Just tell me, and the villain will definitely offer it with both hands. It is absolutely unambiguous." Ah, all you have to say is one word."

"Just say it?" Jiang Huan sneered: "I want the jade seal, do you have it?"

"Ah?!" The boss was taken aback for a moment, then he kowtowed like garlic, and even the ground made a "bang bang" sound.

"My lord, the villain doesn't have it. How could there be such a thing here? The villain has no ability to steal, let alone have the courage to accept it. My lord has learned from it!"

"It doesn't matter whether you have the ability or not, what I say with my eyes." Jiang Huan turned his head and told a guard behind him: "Go and find it."

"Yes, my lord." The guard clasped his fists and walked inside.

Jiang Huan looked at Qianhu beside him, and hummed: "It's really useless, you can't even find a stone, how did you get Qianhu?"

"The villain deserves to die, please forgive me." Qianhu knelt down on the ground, and slapped himself hard with his right hand. His heart was like a mirror. From this point of view, Mr. Jiang wanted to force the matter of Yuxi to hang here. The boss of the jewelry store, I blame myself for not understanding it before, otherwise there are not many ways?
Not a moment later, the Jinyi guard who went in before came out with a sandalwood box in his hand.

"Sir, I dug this under a tree in the back hall."

"Open it and have a look." Jiang Huan ordered casually.

"Yes."

The box was opened, and there was a large white jade seal in a square shape, on which the nine dragons twisted and twisted, with teeth and claws, symbolizing the supreme imperial power.

Jiang Huan glanced at it, chuckled lightly, and pointed to the boss on the ground casually: "Show him."

"Ah?!" the boss exclaimed, almost fainting, and the cry in his mouth became more and more sad: "My lord, I am wronged, my lord is wronged! This thing does not belong to the villain, and the villain has never seen it! Sir, you are aware of it!" "

Of course it wasn't his, all the Jin Yiwei present had the same heart as Ming Jing, this was planting, an old trick.

"Might check? Why check? The facts are all there, let's take him away." Jiang Huan turned around and got on the sedan chair again.

Several pro-military soldiers stepped forward and dragged the boss up from the ground, put the shackles and fetters that had been prepared on the boss, and dragged him outside.

"It's wrong, it's wrong!"

"Shout again? Shout again!" The stick fell again and again, and the boss who beat him screamed.

"Unjustly accused? You are not unjustly accused. Who told you that the name of your jewelry store has the word spring in it." Jiang Huan murmured.

. . . . . . .

With the arrest of the owner of Shengchun Jewelry Shop, the theft of the Imperial Seal officially kicked off.

Yes, a prologue, not an epilogue, far from an epilogue.

How could a jewelry store owner have the ability to steal a jade seal from the palace?Who sold it to him?What is he going to do after buying it?Is the jade seal found real?Could it be a fake piece prepared by the boss in advance?If it is fake, where is the real piece, and in whose hands is it?
A series of questions were waiting to be answered, and any news related to Yuxi, whether true or false, became the best topic of conversation among the people of Nanjing.

By the Mochou Lake, Yun Zheng whispered to Xu Ruyi the news he found.

"The owner of Shengchun Jewelry Shop, surnamed Chen, surnamed Liubai, is a native of Nanjing. It is rumored that his old mother used to be a servant of a certain prince's family in the previous dynasty. The Yuan Dynasty fell, and his old mother seems to have stolen a few pieces from the palace. The baby came out and married Chen Liubai's father. The old man died earlier, and he was raised by his old mother. Before he died, he left a few treasures to this Chen Liubai. Chen Liubai used this I opened this Shengchun Jewelry Store ten years ago as a business owner. I am fairly honest and responsible, and my family property is only a few thousand taels."

"Speak the key."

"In the past month or so, I haven't seen any sneaky and suspicious people coming in and out of the jewelry store. Maybe it's a private transaction, so I can't find out. But...it's unlikely. The key point is that Chen Liubai doesn't seem to have the guts People who buy jade seals.”

"That's weird. How could Jiang Huan choose him? For no reason, what's the benefit of beheading someone? With a few thousand taels of silver, he shouldn't be so worthless." Xu Ruyi muttered to herself.

He always felt that there must be some mystery here, but he just didn't figure it out.
