Chapter 208 The Liu Family Was Confiscated and Imprisoned
At this time, Shen Wen was the only one sitting alone in the Suoxin Villa. Chu Yanqiu would go out every morning these two days. Sometimes he would send someone back to inform him when he was on official business, and if not, he would come back after noon.
As for what Chu Yanqiu had been doing for such a long time, although he didn't say it, Shen Wen could roughly guess it. He went to see the guardian elder from the southern tribe. It is said that the witch has some real magical powers. Although Shen Wen mostly doesn't believe this, he can't conclude that she can't cure it. Even in modern times, those ancient medicines left over by ethnic minorities for thousands of years are still quite good for treating difficult and complicated diseases.
Chu Yanqiu's imperial rage poison was becoming increasingly difficult to suppress. Even though the poison that linked their lives to each other could be restrained at critical moments, it would still break out at certain times of the day.
Shen Wen frowned and thought, maybe he should go back to the three houses and ask the people inside. After all, they are well-informed and have extensive connections.
Thinking of this, Shen Wen put down the teacup in his hand and planned to walk out the door. But when he turned around and saw a shadow of a secret guard hiding on the wall, Shen Wen stopped and walked back. He walked along the stone path of the small garden, strolling for a distance. When he saw the thick weeping willow tree not far away, he stood under the tree to rest.
The secret guard on the wall who occasionally stretched his head to look at Shen Wen naturally would not notice his intention. He just thought that he was in a daze and deep thought as usual, and would probably go back to the house to sleep soon, so he retracted his head to look elsewhere.
So I missed the magical scene of someone passing through the trees.
In the blink of an eye, Shen Wen appeared at the door of the three houses. He looked back at the sparse pedestrians on the road not far away, and saw that no one noticed his abnormal behavior. Then he pushed open the door of the three houses and walked in.
The person who had been watching over the three houses was now replaced by Li Fengnan, the right rear chair. Li Fengnan smiled with surprise and no surprise when he saw Shen Wen: "Why did you come just now? I have been looking forward to seeing you for several days."
Shen Wen really liked Li Fengnan, a chivalrous and kind-hearted woman. He smiled and said, "You don't have to be too nervous about me. Just do your things. I won't be bullied."
Li Fengnan said, "Now that everyone knows your identity, there's no reason not to be concerned about you. I've also told everyone that you're not as weak as you think, but you fell into such a big setback before, who among us wouldn't miss you?"
Shen Wen was grateful in his heart but could only say: "Thank you all."
Li Fengnan followed Shen Wen to the main hall, and they sat down on the left and right. Shen Wen then said, "I won't talk to you about anything else. I came here this time just to ask you about the legend of the emperor's rage."
Li Fengnan thought for a moment and said, "This seems to be a legend of the Great Jin Dynasty. Although I have heard some of it from hearsay, it is okay for me to tell you about it now, but I don't know how much of these rumors are true."
She thought for a moment and said, "How about this, do you have time to wait? I'll send someone to invite Master Guan, and he'll be here in about half an hour."
Shen Wen had no choice but to do this.
The two drank tea and chatted.
Shen Wen naturally couldn't help asking about the movements of the three houses in the past few days, so Li Fengnan told him about the punishment of the three masters of the Shen family. As for Yan Sangeng, Li Fengnan said, "Yan Sangeng is the favorite of our chief master, Mr. Tu. Don't think he likes to kill people, but he is actually a man who values friendship and loyalty. When he heard that Zhinuan had died, you didn't see his uncontrollable emotions. If he hadn't been scolded by Mr. Tu, Yan Sangeng would have wanted to run out and kill everyone immediately."
Shen Wen said: "This man is interesting. I must meet him if I have a chance. However, you said he likes to kill people?"
Li Fengnan said, "They say you were raised in a mansion. I thought you were a man after all, and you must have heard about our Three Houses' deeds in the martial arts world from other people. But I didn't expect... Actually, it's not his fault that he has such a bad reputation. There are too many unscrupulous people in this world. Every time our Three Houses uses such people to establish its reputation, Yan Sangeng is the first to rush in. This is because he is a confidant of President Tu who grew up with him, so he is willing to do it."
Shen Wen said, "That's right. Speaking of this, I remember someone mentioned an incident. It was said that at the funeral hall of Wu Tianci and Liu Jizong, someone brought a coffin as a gift. When people opened the coffin, they found that it was filled with human heads. Could it be that Yan Sangeng did this?"
Li Fengnan nodded and said, "It seems that you have heard of it."
Shen Wen asked: "Who was killed?"
Li Fengnan said that the people who were killed were Huo Hui's family from the Golden Sword Sect, and he recounted in detail what Yan Sangeng had done that day.
Shen Wen nodded but said nothing.
After chatting about some things in the three houses, Guan Yonghuan arrived.
Guan Yonghuan said, "I know about the anger of Emperor Jie Guan that you asked about. This formation was created by the Ji family's ancestors Ji Zhengguang and his wife many years ago. It was built in the third year after their master Zhao Qingjue ascended to heaven. In the first year, they summoned many righteous martial artists from the sixteen countries to challenge the formation, but Ji Zhengguang died in the second year. Six years later, huge coups took place in all the sixteen countries. Later, the Jie Emperor Pass became the venue for the Ji family to select their own children. Strangely enough, the children of the Ji family's branches scattered in various countries are all very outstanding. There are many children of the Ji family who go to challenge the Jie Emperor Pass, but most of them go in and few come out alive! The fate of these children who come out alive has changed. Although they have made outstanding achievements, they have become violent and murderous, and they are very short-lived. None of them died young."
Shen Wen said: "So, Chu Yanqiu should be the one who escaped alive from Emperor Jie's imprisonment. The evil power of the emperor's rage will also cause him to die young."
Guan Yonghuan said, "You don't have to feel sad for him too soon. I have seen one or two members of the Ji family who broke through the Jiedi Pass. You don't know, they all said that they regretted not being able to master the divine skill of the emperor's anger. So, even though he is being tortured by that divine skill now, it is not certain that his life was burned by the emperor's anger."
Shen Wen thought about it, and then said, "You mean, Chu Yanqiu might have become like this because of other factors?"
Guan Yonghuan said: "This? I'm just guessing."
The two of them talked for such a long time and finally came to this conclusion, so they let it go.
Guan Yonghuan said, "Master, are you done with your work? When are we going to blast the mine? All my people have been pulled out from the deep mountains."
Shen Wen said, "Do you think it's easy to overthrow the Baocheng County Lord? Should I spend a few more days devising strategies for that woman? I think that woman is very ambitious."
Guan Yonghuan smiled and said, "Then, shall we wait a few more days?"
Shen Wen said, "It doesn't have to be that long. I'll go to Zhong Jie's little house first and come out to discuss some things with you. After you make the arrangements, we'll set off to the gold mine to deliver a great gift to Shen Maofeng and Baocheng County Lord."
Guan Yonghuan said with a smile: "Okay, go and do your thing, we'll see each other later."
Shen Wen opened the secret passage and entered the small house below the three houses.
After a while, Shen Wen came out with two young men dressed in black.
Guan Yonghuan laughed when he saw the man and said, "As expected, you are the successor chosen by Mr. Zhong. You found the killer weapon he left behind so quickly."
Shen Wen nodded and said, "Sure enough, I guessed it."
Synthetic robot.
That room with only two huge white pillars, somehow, was like the legendary wormhole, leaking alien creatures from outer space. Perhaps it just happened to be connected to the battlefield of modern time and space. These synthetic robots, which had just been developed by the scientists of Shenshu, were teleported to this time and space without even experiencing the baptism of war.
Fortunately, Zhong Jie is in charge of this time and space. What if these synthetic robots teleported to this era were formed into teams or companies?
You have to know that this is a synthetic robot, synthesized from humans with brains.
Once these synthetic robots discover that they have the power to destroy the world, can they penetrate the earth? This is unknown. It is very likely that they can kill thousands of humans.
Shen Wen patted the black robot beside him and said, "You have to remember, you will be my personal bodyguard from now on. You are a human like me. I have programmed you. You have to adapt to this identity as soon as possible, understand?"
The man in black nodded and said, "I will, Boss. I will do it as soon as possible."
Shen Wen patted his shoulder again and said, "Not bad, not bad! How about your name be Pu Zhao from now on?"
The man in black nodded and said, "Yes, the boss just said that No. 022 will be named Puzhao from now on, and No. 023 will be named Dadi."
Uncle Guan, who was listening carefully, was immediately amused. He said, "Illuminating the Earth? Hey! This is a very clever name."
Shen Wen knew that he was laughing at him and glared at him.
However, he was quite proud of this synthetic robot. From its expression to its language, it was exactly the same as a normal human.
As for the matter of setting a trap for the Princess of Baocheng County.
Shen Wen asked Uncle Guan to come closer to him and whispered something in his ear.
When Uncle Guan heard this, he burst into laughter.
Grandpa Guan said, "My Lord, you think the same as I do. The fact that the Princess of Baocheng County fell in love with that idiot Shen Maofeng shows that she is a fickle woman. There is no doubt that she will find a new lover and abandon the old one. As for finding her a new lover, I have a candidate."
Shen Wen said: "Who is it? Tell me."
Uncle Guan whispered in Shen Wen's ear.
Shen Wen also smiled and nodded, "I think this is the way to go. Let's do it this way."
Uncle Guan said, "Don't worry, Uncle Guan, this kind of thing is a piece of cake. I can get it done quickly."
An hour or so had passed since Shen Wen finished discussing business with Uncle Guan. He did not stay long and walked out of the gate of the three houses, intending to return to Suoxinyuan through the big tree at the gate.
Just as he was standing under the tree, he heard a gong sound at the street corner and someone shouted, "Today, the 47 members of the Liu family of Liu Yixin, a suspect from Baima Street, were all confiscated by the government and imprisoned."
