Book 32 - Chapter 3 – Facing Challenges (1/2)

Kou Zhong handed over the horse to be looked after by a Sha Family servant, and then he headed toward Hou Xibai’s secret nest toBy the ti and Lei Jiuzhi were discussing ga Wo tohis head, Kou Zhong said to the two, “Li Yuanji is back!”

Xu Ziling already knew this, naturally he was not surprised at all Nodding his head, he said, “Because so the Pass; naturally Li Yuanji had to rush back”

Stunned, Kou Zhong said, “Unexpectedly you know more than I do”

Lei Jiuzhi poured a cup of tea for him, and then he related Hou Xibai’s infor the botto pondered deeply for athe illusion, is he trying to harm us or help us?”

If they had not entered the Pass, and Yang WenGan’s intelligence network ht that they already entered the Pass, sodown, naturally it would help the boys to enter Guanzhong If the boys were already inside the Pass, but their doppelgangers appeared outside the Pass, naturally people would be even less suspicious of the boys’ assumed identity However, if everybody knew that they have arrived in Chang’an, they reatly increase the pressure

Xu Ziling spoke heavily, “Wethe illusion is definitely someone who is very familiar with our temperament and style”

Lei Jiuzhi blankly said, “How did Ziling arrive at that conclusion?”

Leaning back into his chair, Kou Zhong stretched his li Shao said is quite reasonable If I aht even know that Mo Shen Yi is , so she deliberately uses this method to increase the pressure on us, to force us to unearth the Duke Yang’s Treasure as soon as possible”

His countenance changed, Lei Jiuzhi asked, “Why not shi+ Zhixuan or Zhao Deyan, but the Yaonu?”

Xu Ziling agreed with Kou Zhong’s assessment; he said, “Because she is most familiar with us, so much so that she is faong Because of Kou Zhong’ proficiency inBut if they know the Divine Doctor Mo’s style in treating illness, they would iuise”

Deeply worried and sick at heart, Lei Jiuzhi said, “This is very bad; how are we going to deal with it?”

Kou Zhong laughed and said, “Don’t worry! Yin Gui Pai will never spread this precious secret out, because they [feminine] want to s the Xie Di Sheli for thereat deal of effort to escort us This illusion is certainly one ht, there will be a Lunar New Year’s Eve banquet at the Palace, Li Yuan has deterindifferently responded, “You and I are in the sa Xuyan will also have to attend this grand occasion to as we plan ahead on how to ency, we should be able to deal with it”

And then he told Kou Zhong about Hou Xibai’s situation in passing

Kou Zhong’s eyes suddenly lit up He said, “I have no doubt that the best ht, because everybody will be concentrated in the Palace After the event, everybody will be full and drunk, nobody will have leisure ti on treasure hunt in secret Ling Shao, what do you think?”

Displeased, Xu Ziling asked, “Have you investigated clearly where the treasure is?”

Full of confidence, Kou Zhong replied, “To Beauty’s pulse and pay shu Daren Li Zhenghui’s pero to the Ministry of Works’ docu in the Yue Ma Bridge’s vicinity If we can find the building that was built in the sa Su’s personal supervision, it would be the same as we find the entrance to the treasure Just leave this heavy responsibility to Xiaodi”

Lei Jiuzhi was gradually getting used to Kou Zhong’s style; sincerely and with earnest wishes he said, “Since the secret storehouse was designed by Lu shi+, it will definitely not that easy to see through”

Turning to Xu Ziling, Kou Zhong said, “Tonight Li Yuanji is going to inviteYa Ge’s beautiful lady boss, who is also the beauty who asked, “Who is she?”

Kou Zhong leaned forward and spoke , who had once bit the hand that feeds her”

Xu Ziling drew a blank “Who is Qingqing?” he asked

Kou Zhong already guessed that this would be Xu Ziling’s reaction; he explained clearly with a shed and said, “This proves that she is a person with conscience, hence the reason she is feeling guilty afterwards”

Re said, “That’s funny Zha Jie is just like your Sha Farovels under Xi’er’s skirt trying to win her heart I hope this is just a te, I don’t want hi did not take this ave hih, “This is ive me my share”

I up to his full height, he put the gold into his bosohed aloud and said, “Brothers! It’s tiood ti said, “While there’s still a bit of tie for my self-defense, so that when someone asks me, I won’t be dumbstruck and unable to reply”

Lei Jiuzhi cheerfully said, “Speaking about tooting our horns, I can be considered thethe uarantee that I can teach you within one sichen”

Blurting out laughing, Kou Zhong said, “I don’t want to learn how to toot my horn from you; rather, I want to learn some kno and theory of medical science, so that when someone ask, I won’t lack the words to respond to the his eyes, Lei Jiuzhi asked, “Is there any difference between the two?”

Xu Ziling could not help bursting into loud laughter Glowering at hi so happily All along I have a feeling that Li Yuanji’s banquet tonight is not a good banquet at all; it is not a si’s disease If it were you, you just got back fro and difficult trek froht you make laborious effort to entertain the physician who treated your sweetheart’s illness; what kind of logic is this? Not only that, he had to coax and plead by specifically sending Chang He to invite Laozi to attend the banquet?”

Muttering to himself irresolutely, Lei Jiuzhi said, “I hear that Nanhai Pai’s Zhangmen Mei Xun not only has tyrannicalas well It e said, “Fortunately you and the Sha Family have already had previous predestined affinity If you suddenly appeared just as the Sha Fae indeed if they did not think that you are a fake article Presently it is hard to distinguish the real fro as a thicket”

The two could not help worrying for Kou Zhong Li Yuanji and his ’s, simply because they went all over the place to hunt down Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, two boys Anybody with unknown origin would be a suspect to them Otherwise, with Li Yuanji’s status and rank, he could not possibly conduct the investigation hi said, “The theory of medical science isin haste to learn it, if you cae, I would be surprised if you don’t reveal hundreds of ot it! Although with successive generations the theory ofthe source and direction of the flow, it is still based on the Huangdi Neijing [medical text (Internal Canon) attributed to the Yellow E deviates from it As chance has it, LaoGe has spent laborious effort in studying the Huangdi Neijing I wrote about the essence and vital points within it, such as the Four Qi, Yin and Yang, Five Viscera, Meridians, Qi and Blood, and so on, which I will pass on to you When the tie on the spot, perhaps you will be able to pass this hurdle”

Worried, Xu Ziling said, “If the other side raises a question about the practice of usingto deal with it?”

So that far! At that ti to the situation The troops coht; the water comes, build a dike”

“That shouldn’t be a proble to teach you so’s (lit farmer God) Coical coeneral idea; don’t talk about the details Unless the opposite side is a master proficient in h it”

Kou Zhong boith clasped hands in front of his chest, saying, “shi+fu, please bestow your teaching, Xiaotu [little disciple] is listening with respectful attention”

Tonight Bei Li [northern neighborhood, see Book 30 Chapter 10; probably equivalent to city district] was especially bustling with noise and excite Qin’ and Lei Jiuzhi’s ‘Wen Kuan’, both were traveling– selected a randoht to Ming Tang Wo’swondered aloud, “At the end of the day, our target is the Xiang Fao directly to the Six-Happiness Casino, which they open, and beat the method can be a bit more vicious and merciless”

With a card up his sleeve, Lei Jiuzhi replied, “That is precisely the crucial point YouWo and the Six-Happiness Casino have their own behind-the-scenes supporter Even though they are archene to Jianghu rules, ater cannot violate river water Even if the ‘Great I technique surpasses that of the ‘(Daoist) Io to the Six-Happiness Casino and kick around over there But with you as a ether Laodi [ol’ younger brother] is a sht to understand what I said!”

Xu Ziling suddenly saw the light It was only then did he understand why Lei Jiuzhi wanted hi world When he had enough qualifications to battle against the ‘Great Iet that the Six-Happiness Casino would want to rope in, to use him to strike the opponent This was certainly aFamily They were lucky that Lei Jiuzhi was able to think about it

Knitting his brows, Xu Ziling said, “When you told ive me details? If you had toldspirit her”

Sound of hoof beats ca directly at the Xu Ziling, this yellow-faced man, immediately his eyes shone He spoke a couple of sentences to Ke Dazhi, as riding beside hihtly as he turned his gaze toward Xu Ziling

This was Xu Ziling’s first encounter with Ke Dazhi, but just like Kou Zhong, he was able to recognize hi inwardly, he avoided Ke Dazhi’s eyes, while pulling Lei Jiuzhi into Ming Tang Wo

Lei Jiuzhi sensed so was a hi has not answered Xiaodi’s question just now”
