Chapter 21 On the way
After conquering the Jukun Gang, Lu Yuan went to the Haisha Gang and spent several days controlling the Haisha Gang.
The Haisha Gang is easier to control than the Jukun Gang. The leader of the gang, "Dragon King" Han Gaitian, has a firm say in the gang. As long as Lu Yuan controls him, he is equivalent to controlling the Haisha Gang.
After subduing the two major gangs, there is still one day left before the agreed rendezvous with Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling and Wei Zhenzhen.
Lu Yuan did not go to the agreed place immediately, but went to Yuhang City to inquire to see if he could get any news about Kou Xuwei and the others and what they had done in the past half month.
The city of Yuhang is not small, and it is not easy to get information about Kou, Xu, and Wei. Lu Yuan has not heard any information that can be linked to Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, and Wei Zhenzhen.
Without asking, Lu Yuan was very satisfied.
This shows that the three of them acted secretly, did not cause any big commotion, attracted attention, and deeply followed the instructions of their master.
The next day, Lu Yuan had breakfast in the city and then rushed to the high ground not far from Yuhang Pier. Before he arrived, Lu Yuan saw three figures waiting on the high ground.
"How long have you been here? Didn't you just come last night?"
Seeing that Lu Yuan had guessed it, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling rubbed their heads and smiled innocently, while Wei Zhenzhen looked down at the ground.
Kou Zhong, who disguised himself as a dark-skinned young man, said: "The disciples just wanted to see the master as soon as possible, so they arrived a little early. Master, the disciples have already completed the tasks you gave them!"
Kou Zhong took out a money bag with an excited look and handed it to Lu Yuan respectfully: "Fortunately, in this half month, the disciples earned a total of 172 taels of silver. Please check it, Master!"
Xu Ziling took out a few pieces of paper from his arms: "This is the list of officials in the city and the garrison map of the Sui troops stationed in the city. Please check it, Master!"
Wei Zhenzhen also took out some pieces of paper: "Master, this is a list of famous people in the city. Please read it, Master!"
Lu Yuan waved his hand and said with a smile: "No need, I believe in you! Just tell me how you did it in the past half month."
Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, and Wei Zhenzhen put away the money list and told Lu Yuan how they earned money in the past half month, and how they clearly understood the list of officials in the city, the list of celebrities in the city, and the garrison defense in the city.
.
After finishing speaking, the three of them looked at Lu Yuan with expressions like "Master, did we do a good job? Praise us!"
Lu Yuan was naturally generous with his praise, and immediately praised: "Xiao Zhong, Xiao Ling, Zhen Zhen, you did a good job. You made a decision before taking action. You did not choose those methods that seemed to be highly profitable but extremely risky. I am very pleased to be my teacher."
.
It must be understood that when you are alive, you must first survive before you can do anything. If you are gone, how can you do things? Unless it is under certain special circumstances, you should try your best to pay attention to your own safety and preserve your useful body."
Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, and Wei Zhenzhen nodded in agreement. In the past half month, they had encountered danger several times. Although they escaped successfully, they had a deeper understanding of Lu Yuan's teachings of "keeping a low profile".
I realized that what Master taught me was right.
If it weren't for the disguise technique taught by Master, and the method of onomatopoeia taught by Master...they would have been discovered by someone long ago and chopped into pieces by Cheba Cheba!
"But you may have something you can do better!" Lu Yuan changed the topic and said again.
Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, and Wei Zhenzhen all looked solemn, saluted Lu Yuan seriously and said, "Master, please teach me!"
Lu Yuan smiled and said: "It's not about teaching. I just listened to your stories. I didn't face the situation directly like you did. It's just post-mortem analysis and discussion together. Let's talk as we go!"
Wei Zhenzhen asked curiously: "Master, are we leaving Yuhang? Where are we going?"
Lu Yuan nodded and said: "The things in Yuhang have been done, so naturally it's time to leave. Is there anywhere Zhenzhen wants to go?"
Wei Zhenzhen shook her head: "No, I will go wherever Master and Xiao Zhong Xiaoling go."
Lu Yuan smiled and said: "Our next stop is to Pegasus Ranch!"
Xu Ziling said: "Pegasus Ranch? Are there many horses there? Master wants to buy horses?"
Lu Yuan led the three of them to the high ground and said: "There are indeed many horses in Pegasus Ranch, and they are of high quality, but this trip as a teacher is not to buy horses, but to meet a person and learn from him.
I know something there. Of course, if we can reach a deal with Pegasus Ranch, that’s fine too!”
Lu Yuan went to Pegasus Ranch to find Lu Miaozi, but Lu Yuan's main purpose was not to invite Lu Miaozi to join his great cause, but to know the specific information of Yang Gong's treasure house through Lu Miaozi, so that he could enter Yang Gong's treasure house and obtain the treasure house.
The "Evil Emperor's Relic" in.
In this world, Lu Yuan felt that his skills had not yet reached the top level, and it was not easy to significantly enhance his skills through hard training in a short period of time. Lu Yuan thought of the two strange objects in the original book.
: One, the He clan's jade; two, the evil emperor's relics!
There is no need to think too much about He Shibi for the time being. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the world is in chaos. There must be many eyes staring at this Fang Chuanguo Jade Seal, Cihang Jingzhai, Taoism, Demon Sect...
Lu Yuan doesn't want to compete with these people now.
Leaving aside He's Bi, only the Evil Emperor's relics can be considered.
This thing is in Yang Gong's treasure house, and not many people know its location. There is almost no competitiveness. As long as you can enter the treasure house safely, the chance of success is extremely high.
The only problem is how to safely enter Yang Gong's treasure house?
Lu Yuan remembered the description of Yang Gong's treasure house in the original work, but who knew it was different from the original work? If after entering, he found that the mechanism inside was different from the original work and was more dangerous, wouldn't it be easy to lose his life?
To be on the safe side, it is best to have a detailed and in-depth understanding of the treasure house first!
Lu Yuan then thought of Lu Miaozi.
Lu Miaozi was the designer of Yang Gong's treasure house, so he naturally knew the treasure house very well.
The four masters and apprentices headed towards Pegasus Ranch.
The four of them hurried on by foot. Along the way, they had a deeper look at the situation in the Sui Dynasty today, with corruption in government, frequent man-made disasters, and natural disasters. A large number of people were displaced. In many places, deserted villages were everywhere, bones were everywhere, and bandits were rampant.
The Sui Dynasty was extremely ill and had run out of energy!
The four masters and apprentices spent the night in an abandoned temple. Thinking of a village they had seen during the day that was massacred by bandits, Kao Zhong, who was sitting by the campfire, asked with some confusion: "Master, why did this world become such a mess?"
Like this? People kill people, people force people, people eat people... Isn't it good for everyone to live in harmony together?"
Lu Yuan glanced at Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, and Wei Zhenzhen, but without answering, asked: "Who do you think is to blame?"
"It's Yang Guang's fault..."
Kou Zhong opened his mouth to say, "It's the fault of Yang Guang, that stupid king", but he paused again.
In the past, he thought that it was Yang Guang's fault that the world was in such a state. But after what he saw and heard these days, and what Lu Yuan told him, he felt that it was not right to attribute all the faults to Yang Guang.
Before Kou Zhong could speak, Xu Ziling said: "Master, I thought Yang Guang was going to take the lead."
Lu Yuan, Kou Zhong, and Wei Zhenzhen all looked at him.
Xu Ziling continued: "Master once warned us: when a person has great strength and power, he can decide the lives and deaths of many people with one word, and he should not act arbitrarily.
At that time, any small mistake he makes will be magnified. If he is not careful in his words and deeds and just acts as he pleases, it will lead to great evil. This is the case with Yang Guang!"
"Some of the things Yang Guang did were not wrong in terms of the purpose he wanted to achieve, but he did not consider the errors that might arise from these things. In the process of execution, they became mistakes. As an emperor, he
One word and one action can determine the life or death of too many people."
Speaking of this, Xu Ziling said bitterly: "According to what Master said, Yang Guang is behind the Baling Gang who traffics in women, and he collects beauties from all over the world for him for his lustful pleasure. God has no eyes, so he let
These people became emperors!"
"After Yang Guang, we can count the others. Among these people, the most important ones are the various wealthy and aristocratic families. These wealthy and aristocratic families have done countless evil things!"
Kou Zhong nodded and said: "What Xiaoling said is reasonable. But..."
Kou Zhong looked at Lu Yuan and asked: "Master, even if the world is unified again, if someone like Yang Guang appears again in the future, won't the situation today happen again? I dare to ask Master, is it possible?
The way to achieve lasting peace and stability?”
Lu Yuan smiled and said: "Maybe there is, or maybe there is not. I have never seen a country that is hard to change until now. But I think there will be. If there is not one, then create one! Just like the road in this world, the world is inherently
There is no road, there are just pioneers walking in the wilderness, and more people follow the trail, and then it becomes a road!”
