The Book of Troubled Times

  Chapter 226 Two pig heads

   Said they were going to Jianhu, but the two left the city very slowly.

  Two little pigs were walking unsteadily on the streets of the city, looking at the stalls on the left and right and the dazzling array of shops very curiously.

  Zhao Changhe has never really gone shopping in this life, whether in Qinghe or Suyang. In Gusu, there were two options for shopping and sightseeing in the lake, and the final choice was to swim in the lake.

   And Suzaku didn't know how many years it had been since she went out shopping like the little girl... Wearing the mask of Suzaku, the whole street was filled with murderous aura, and the whole street was silent.

  Don't talk about your real identity, it's even more difficult to go shopping.

  But now... people's eyes fell on their faces, and instead of being frightened, there was a smile of auntie, full of goodwill.

   It's a weird feeling... A little bit of a relief, but also a little bit of a shame. The old and young people still wear pigs, and they seem to be misunderstood as a couple with the pig next to them. The aunt's smile is very awkward.

   Then I felt that no one would know who I was wearing the mask anyway, so why should I be ashamed?

  So there is only relaxation and novelty left.

  Jianhu City is quite prosperous. Although it is not as good as Jingshi, it has its own characteristics. For example, the style of pancakes sold there seems to have never been seen by Jingshi. They are as thick as steamed buns and smell a little fragrant.

   "Hello." Suzaku elbowed Zhao Changhe: "We didn't eat breakfast, we were on our way early in the morning, and now it's almost noon. Let me tell you, skipping breakfast is not good for martial arts..."

   "Would you like to eat that pancake?"

   "No, I'm warning you..."

  Zhao Changhe has already arrived at the pancake stand: "Two here."

   Suzaku wandered to the side: "I didn't say I wanted to eat this, it was your choice."

   "Then one?"

  Before he finished speaking, his hands were empty, and the pancakes he had already received were suddenly snatched away.

   Turning his head to look, a pig's head groaned: "Why didn't you eat me? It's confiscated."

  Zhao Changhe: "..."

   There was a little bit of underside of the pig's head, and it didn't feel hot to the mouth. He took a bite of the cake and quickly covered it.

  Zhao Changhe shook his head and smiled, turned his head and threw a piece of silver, took another piece of cake and gnawed on it while walking.

  Suzaku said casually: "Why did I hear people say that you had no money after you left the South, and now you're staying at a store to buy things, and the money looks like you can't spend it all. Where did you get the money?"

  Zhao Changhe wondered: "How can you be so well-informed? I complained to Xuan Chong even though I didn't have money."

   "That is the boat of the Cao Gang, and some of the people on board are our people."

   "...Okay. You really collected my information in every detail."

   "It's not clear enough, for example, I don't know where your money comes from now. Did Cui Yuanyang give you money again?"

   "It was given by you saintess."

   "..." Suzaku suddenly felt that the cake in his hand was not fragrant.

  Little hooves, use the money from the holy religion to support men, right?

   "Just kidding hahaha." Zhao Changhe said with a smile: "I lost the bank notes, and I didn't lose the broken silver. I already had it, but there really isn't much left. I have to find a way to get money."

   "If you make such a joke again, I will beat you."

   "Yesterday I was calling my brother good, but today I am shouting and killing. Hey, by the way, how does your holy religion make money? Accept believers to make offerings?"

"We have our own property, and many of them are not shady industries, but aboveboard, but no one knows that the person in charge is ours." Suzaku gnawed at the cake leisurely: "The strength of the Holy Cult is not yours. You can ask a little bit around the corner, and you can't imagine the power behind it... How about joining the religion? I will give you a good position. In the future, you will be popular and drink spicy food, and martial arts will not be a problem. We can mobilize all members for any meridian problem. Find it for you. It is much more comfortable to rely on a good sect than to fight alone."

   "Give it to me later."

"Don't talk about it. We are not Maitreya, and we don't use beauty to seduce people." Suzaku said contemptuously: "You don't have to look at me, I know what's going on in your mind. Your Majesty asked me to follow you for I understand, I'm not sending me to you, you should die of that heart, it's disgusting."

  Zhao Changhe really couldn't laugh or cry: "I didn't say anything, you made up a lot of your own brain, did you think so yourself?"

   "I just knew you would think so!"

   "Yes, yes, yes." Zhao Changhe couldn't refute, he really had this kind of misunderstanding, otherwise why did Suzaku ask you to come, Mingsong, yes.

  That's why there was molesting before.

   But thinking about it, it seems right. The Four Elephants Sect doesn’t seduce people with sex. It’s called the Demon Sect, but they are actually very proud.

  It's a good thing, at least you don't have to worry about being sent to do this kind of task. This Miss Winged Fire Snake is also very good, she can't just be sent to hook up men casually.

   Having said that, the molestation has already been molested, why don't you pretend to be a gentleman now, so that people don't call you brother?

  Zhao Changhe didn't bother to worry about this, and said with a smile: "Why are you so eager to persuade me if you don't want to join the religion? Now your venerable is still studying what is going on with my astrology. What if it is not suitable at all?"

   Suzaku secretly thought that I am not trying to recruit you into the group because of the stars... Forget it, there is no way to say this, I can only say: "Then you are alone in the rivers and lakes, what should you do if you have no money, go grab it?"

   Before he finished speaking, someone suddenly blocked the way in front of him: "The two little pigs are quite rich. You can buy pancakes with broken silver, and take out whatever you have left."

  Zhao Changhe: "..."

   Suzaku: "..."

   Seeing the dumbfounded looks of the two pigs, the other party was clearly here to rob but almost died of laughter: "Little men and women come to Jianhu City to have a romantic relationship. Did any elders tell you that Jianhu City is in chaos?"

  The two pig heads seemed to have just realized what happened, and incredible emotions filled their hearts.

  We were actually robbed by gangsters in the city... Oh yes, I have heard that Jianhu City is a mess of fish and dragons, and it is very chaotic. I have never experienced it before.

  Although he is wearing a pig-head mask, the dragon sparrow on Zhao Changhe's back is still there. Could it be that because of the increase in this kind of dress, it has no deterrent effect?

  Zhao Changhe felt that the little sister around him became silent. The feeling of smiling and good mood could be felt through the mask, but it became chilling instantly, and the murderous intent in the eyes could almost freeze the soul of a person.

   This is the young lady of Genguan Kunou!

  Zhao Changhe pulled her speechlessly, and took a step across to stop her and the robber.

   "Hey? I really thought you were Zhao Changhe with the broad knife on your back." The other party burst into laughter: "You actually play hero to save the beauty in front of so many of us hahahaha..."

   Laughter was cut off directly in the throat.

  The majestic male pig head with a broad knife on his back moved suddenly, and with an elegant movement that should never belong to his shape, he instantly arrived in front of the leader and grabbed his neck with one hand.

The man tried to parry, but he only got the afterimage of his hand, his neck tightened, and he was lifted up by the whole person: "It's just in time, hand over your money, grandpa hasn't done this job for a long time, send it to Lao Tzu Nostalgia."

   Suzaku's murderous aura instantly disappeared without a trace, and he burst out laughing.

  This stuff is really fun.

  Nowadays, more and more people regard Zhao Changhe as a righteous chivalrous man, but they forget his roots, that is, he was born as a bandit in a copycat village, and he doesn’t even blink when he robs on the spot.

The man's face turned purple from being pinched, and he couldn't even speak. A group of younger brothers drew their swords and surrounded Zhao Changhe, shouting nervously: "Where is the dragon crossing the river? We are members of Mr. Sha Qi from the Kangle Gambling House. It's good to weigh it!"

   "I haven't heard of it." Zhao Changhe stretched out his left hand, and lifted the speaker up again, as if the sword in his hand didn't exist.

  Then the two people holding both hands collided with each other with a "bang", Qiqi fainted to the ground.

  Zhao Changhe rubbed his fists and continued to walk towards other gang members.

  People almost saw a pig demon wreaking havoc, and they all shouted: "Your Excellency, you can think clearly, even Han Wubing was forced to run for his life here, who do you think you are, dare to act wild in Jianhu City?"

  Zhao Changhe was taken aback for a moment, his eyes sharpened instantly.

  Interesting... Unexpectedly, what was thought to be just a bully that can be seen everywhere can involve Han Wubing!

  Han Wubing has already left... and he still ran for his life!

  I thought there was nothing special about this place except for the ice soul at the bottom of Gujian Lake. How could the so-called "chaos" in Jianhu City have the heart to experience it? When the work was done, he left in a hurry. Now that he came back again, he accidentally touched something else that was quite remarkable.
