"General Yueyan was a hero who died for me, Da Yue, how could there be something evil in her mourning hall?" Zhao Shu asked in bewilderment.

"The benefactor does not know, it is precisely because of the purity of the hero's soul that it is more coveted by evil spirits. To be safe, you two should come to worship at another time."

"The two masters don't know something. The elders in the family have received the general's favor in the past. When the elders left, they swore to pay respects every year. My Great Chu puts filial piety first, and I hope the two masters will be gracious..." Zhao Shu said with a look of embarrassment.

The two monks looked at each other, unable to withstand Zhao Shu's indiscriminate bombardment, sighed and said, "In this case, you must first receive my Buddha's grace before you can enter. If evil spirits enter the body, it will be dereliction of duty."

Zhao Shu put his palms together and returned a salute, but saw two monks leading him and the grandmother in two directions, "Why don't you go together?"

"The benefactor does not know that there is a difference in the grace rituals for male and female believers, and they will be able to meet each other at the time of worship.

Zhao Shu nodded and followed the monk to a clean small room. Zhao Shu watched the monk fiddle with the incense and weighed his hands, "Benefactor! Don't move around!"

Zhao Shu raised his hands with a look of doing something wrong, "I'm sorry."

"It's all right, the benefactor should sit down quickly, listen to my Buddha's teaching early and get my Buddha's protection, so he should go back earlier to pay his respects."

Zhao Shu knelt down on the futon, listening to the sound of wooden fish and monks chanting scriptures, the smell of incense drifted helplessly.

After listening for a long time, Zhao Shu yawned, opened his eyes and propped his chin, and said, "Hey, Master read himself to sleep?"

This Mixiang originally wanted to stun Zhao Shu, but who is Zhao Shu? Master Jiu and Wen Jiang are both very good at Qihuang, and he also knows a little bit about it. These people probably don’t want to come here The strong player used the obvious mist, but Zhao Shu mixed something in it just now, and he was stunned instead.

After this encounter, there is no 300 taels of silver here. There must be something abnormal in the mourning hall of General Yueyan, and as the old man said, it should be at an extremely critical juncture that he will pull out some evil nonsense to prevent outsiders from entering .

Zhao Shu flipped through the monk's belongings and couldn't help sneering, even such thieves would dare to pretend to be a disciple of Buddhism.

Fortunately, the old man was the same as him, so it was better for him to go alone for such a dangerous thing.

Just as Zhao Shu turned into the mourning hall, he felt that the wind was blowing everywhere. It was clear that the sun was shining outside and the flowers were blooming, but it was inexplicably cold inside. It didn't look like a place where a general was enshrined. Zhao Shu didn't understand these things either, thinking it's better not to move around, and was looking for a secret way, when he heard human voices.

"The two people outside have dealt with it?"

"Don't worry, one old and one young, Mixiang Mi fainted and slept for a few days, then they will say that they were attacked by some evil spirits. If this is the case, it will be tried a hundred times."

"Then why haven't you come back?"

"I guess I forgot to bring the antidote again, and I also fainted, so don't worry about these, how is the next progress?"

"Almost, it will be finished in just a few days."

"That's good……"

The sound got farther and farther away, and Zhao Shu followed the sound to find a secret passage, which had obviously been repaired for some time.

At first, he just thought that the Yueshan of the Liang family colluded with the Japanese pirates just out of exchange of interests, but this place didn't look like a place of complete mining, on the contrary, it looked like...

Zhao Shu had a flash of inspiration as he walked, and suddenly remembered the methods of deploying soldiers and deploying defenses that Cheng Lan had taught him before, but this place was more like a place where soldiers were secretly hiding soldiers under the pretext of mining.

But the Liang family and Yueshan are still from Chu, how could they collude with the pirates to such an extent?

Or after the exchange of benefits, these Japanese pirates secretly turned the place where the mines were opened into a place where soldiers were hidden without their knowledge?

Mining requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and in such a concealed situation, the risks will also increase. If these Japanese pirates can't stop adding soldiers and horses here through human fatigue...the consequences will be unimaginable.

Zhao Shu now began to suspect that the previous ship broke down suddenly, whether it was accidental or man-made.

Xiaohuo said that he had seen his portrait at those people, so it was very likely that the Liang family wanted to set a trap for him.

But others are already in the fishing village, and these people have not done anything for a long time, Zhao Shu will not believe that it is just a few people who have seen it, and it happens that none of the rest of the village has seen the portrait.

The only possibility is that the broken ship was indeed a conspiracy, but the ship broke into this small fishing village by mistake, and the underground city under the fishing village is about to be built. To be safe, we can only let him go. leave.

The underground space is huge, and the underground passages extend in all directions. Zhao Shu felt like a headless fly. He was studying the traces of his feet on the ground when he suddenly heard the buzzing of a weapon, and subconsciously held back. He stopped breathing and tried to hear more clearly.

Qian Chenglan has taught him that the characteristics of soldiers and horses in each place are different, even the sounds made by weapons are also different. The place where the Japanese pirates live has less iron mines, and the weapons are not as good as those in Dachu, so the sound is different. It is undoubtedly the weapon of Japanese pirates.

Zhao Shu lay on the ground and carefully identified the sound, but heard the sound of orderly footsteps. It is conservatively estimated that half of the Japanese pirates are hidden under this huge town.

The Liang family really lured wolves into the house, playing with firecrackers!

Zhao Shu carefully explored the secret passage, when he suddenly heard footsteps, subconsciously slashed with a knife but was stopped by a flagon, "Changyu, it's me!"

Zhao Shu frowned and looked at the dirty man in front of him, "Master Jiu? Why are you here?"

He wanted to contact Master Jiu to help Yan Yi heal his leg injury, but even his beggar friends couldn't find him. Zhao Shu only thought of him as he didn't know which deep mountain forest he went to become a living god I went there, but I didn't expect to find him in this place.

"It's a long story. You also know that I like to wander around the mountains and plains when I'm drunk. I accidentally ran into these Japanese pirates and was caught here. Fortunately, I'm smart. Let me guard you." Where is the Japanese pirate Yi Rongguan who replaced me and then escaped?" Master Jiu patted Zhao Shu on the shoulder, "Changyu, you are really getting bolder and bolder, why do you like to go to the dragon's lake and tiger's lair all day long? Well, your Master Wen didn't stop you?"

Zhao Shu looked at him silently. Master Jiu felt inexplicably flustered by his staring while talking, "Changyu, don't you have a falling out with Benefactor Wen? Although I don't expect you to follow Benefactor Wen You look at poor monks the same way, but you don’t have to look at me like you’re looking at bad people, right?”

"Master Jiu...do you know Shenzhi?"

"Of course! Didn't you, Changyu, bring it yourself for me to help him see a doctor?" Master Jiu said with a straight face, "Changyu, why did you become so obsessed?"

"Master Jiu, I didn't drink alcohol! It's not so easy to fool."

"Ah! I'm such an obedient Changyu, why do you start to doubt me? I really don't belong with the pirates!"

Seeing Master Jiu's expression that I would not be able to wash off even if I jumped into the Yellow River, Zhao Shufu said again, "Master Jiu knew him before I brought Shen Zhi, or did he know him? Master Jiu had seen him when he was with the old abbot, or heard the old abbot talk about his illness?"

"This..." Master Jiu wiped the sweat off his brow with his dirty sleeve, "Changyu, you are really smart!"

"That's right, otherwise, why would Master Jiu find that medical book by accident? Or did it just happen to let me see what's in it?"

"Changyu..." Master Jiu sighed softly, "Do you believe in divination?"

"Respect ghosts and gods and keep a distance, my brother taught me since childhood."

"Whether you believe it or not, the abbot once made a fortune to Master Wen. There is a noble person in his destiny. If he meets him properly, he will be able to get out of the predicament. If not, he will be sick and weak."

"If you say that, then I quite believe it."

Master Jiu looked at Zhao Shu with a speechless face, which changed faster than turning the pages of a book.

39. Long term

"No matter what, I hope Master Wen can live a good life." Master Jiu sighed, "Because he is a good person with responsibility."

"What else has he done before?"

"Shouldn't you ask Master Wen about this yourself?"

"If I ask him, it's another sentence of forgetting the past..." Zhao Shu said a little aggrieved. After all, he still wanted to know what Wen Jiang had gone through, instead of only participating in Wen Jiang's suddenly enlightened life after he finally broke the situation and was reborn. .

"I don't know much about these things. It's just that Master Wen was ordered to lurk in the Liang Mansion back then, and he did a lot of things in private. Among them, he saved some people who were labeled as criminals and traitors," Master Jiu said. While talking, he suddenly said, "Same as your brother, right?"

Zhao Shu nodded, "So it's because of these people that he is frequently restrained by Liang Yuan?"

"I don't know. Only the person involved knows what's going on here."

Zhao Shu pondered for a moment, "It won't be the same as before..."

Master Jiu was confused by his nonsensical words. Before he recovered, Zhao Shu changed the subject again, "Master Jiu, did you notice anything unusual in this place?"

"Changyu, you really are..." Turning your face is faster than turning a book, "It really is true, the Liang family has won a lot of fame in these years of fighting Japanese pirates... It's just..."

"It's just a
