Chapter 63 The down-and-out scholar You Longsheng and the wealthy businessman Ding Chengfeng
Ding Chengfeng’s face didn’t look good.
You Longsheng's eyes flashed, "Brother Ding, do you recognize this jade plaque?"
"I don't recognize it, but I heard it from my father." Ding Chengfeng said in a deep voice, "This is the identity jade plaque of the four heavenly kings of the Demon Sect."
Ding Baiyun was startled, "Devil Cult!"
You Longsheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Four Heavenly Kings?"
Ding Chengfeng nodded, "The demon sect was raging in the Central Plains back then. Later, the leader was killed by Shen Lang, Shen Daxia and others, and was besieged by the Wulin Zhengdao. It retreated and disappeared without a trace for decades.
There are several branches of the Demon Sect, which may be divided or combined, or destroyed and reborn, but there are always only four of the Four Heavenly Kings, inherited independently. Each one is a top master in the world, and must be consistent with the personalities of the four Heavenly Kings. . "
"It seems that this Yuxiao Taoist is one of them." You Longsheng said, "What he inherited is the "Soul Capturing Technique" in the demon sect?"
“It seems that’s it.” Ding Chengfeng nodded.
Ding Baiyun couldn't help but ask, "Since he knows how to seize the soul, why didn't he use it on us yesterday?"
Ding Chengfeng flipped through the book casually, "This soul-catching technique relies on the eyes. The three of us have been together during the day, and we directly attacked at night, without giving him a chance to use the soul-catching technique."
You Longsheng rubbed his chin, "In other words, we accidentally killed a demon sect's king and then cut off his lineage?"
The Ding brothers and sisters were speechless. These words sounded arrogant, but it seemed that there was nothing wrong with them.
The "Soul Capturing Technique" and the identity jade token are indeed in their hands.
Taoist Yuxiao was the tenth in the "Weapons Book" and was definitely not an easy person to kill. No one would have thought that he could not even get the white jade flute in his hand, so he fell into a plot and died at the hands of two young people. in human hands.
In the original work, the destruction of the four heavenly kings of the Demon Sect occurred in the story of "The Eagle Flies in September", but at that time Yang Tian, Lu Di, and Shangguan Xiaoxian were all young people, and only Taoist Yuxiao was an old man.
So even You Longsheng today does not know who the other three heavenly kings are.
Just when he thought of this, an inexplicable guess suddenly appeared in You Longsheng's mind, and his face changed.
“What’s wrong with you?” Ding Baiyun immediately noticed something was wrong with You Longsheng.
"It's okay." You Longsheng shook his head, "I just thought of something, but there are still many details that I can't match."
“Is it Taoist Yuxiao’s reaction?” Ding Chengfeng asked.
You Longsheng shook his head, and Ding Baiyun sneered, "It's not like they're worried about the demon sect's revenge. They're just rats crossing the street, and everyone yells at them to beat them. They've long since dared not stand out."
Ding Chengfeng is not afraid, "The branches of the demon sect are not affiliated with each other, and there are many places of destruction and rebirth. In the past, there were three messengers of the sun, moon, and stars, and four elders of gold, silver, copper, and iron. These four heavenly kings were just the generation of demon lords a hundred years ago." He was established and responsible for secretly guarding the Demon Sect.
At that time, the demon sect was scattered, and everyone thought that the four heavenly kings were also destroyed. Unexpectedly, there was still a secret inheritance, and it turned out to be the famous Yuxiao Taoist in the martial arts. "
You Longsheng smiled and said, "What you said makes me feel as if you participated in the First World War."
"Of course I didn't participate. I wasn't born yet at that time." Ding Chengfeng said with a smile, "But my father was involved, and he told me all these things."
Ding Baiyun was very dissatisfied, "Why didn't he tell me?"
“Because you are a girl.” Ding Chengfeng and You Longsheng said in unison.
Ding Baiyun curled his lips, "Brother, let's prepare a room at home and put these two things together!"
It was Ding Baiyun who remembered the trophy room where You Longsheng kept the Green Demon Hand in Hidden Sword Villa.
Ding Chengfeng smiled and said, "Brother You killed Taoist Yuxiao."
"But you brothers and sisters have contributed the most." You Longsheng said with a smile, "I will give you the identity jade plaque and the white jade flute. I will be very satisfied with a copy of "Fangzhongshu"!" Ding Chengfeng laughed, and Ding Baiyun gritted his teeth angrily. He glared at You Longsheng bitterly, "Aren't you afraid of dying on a woman's belly?"
You Longsheng thought about the state of Taoist Yuxiao twenty years later when he was sixty or seventy years old. He decisively raised the book in his hand and said confidently, "I was afraid before, but I am not afraid anymore."
At this point, You Longsheng put his arm around Ding Chengfeng's shoulders, "Don't worry, you will definitely be a part of it."
Ding Chengfeng’s eyes were bright and he was smiling.
Ding Baiyun looked at the two people holding hands with their arms full of lewd smiles, and stamped his feet, "Hurry up and get on the boat, or we won't be able to reach Yangzhou at night!"
…
The three of them sold the emptied ship to a businessman at a dock in Huai'an, and then boarded the originally hired passenger ship and sailed down the river. However, they were intercepted by several small boats at the outlet of the waterway from Hongze Lake to Gaoyou Lake. Stopped.
“They are the ones in charge! I saw them get on that big ship with my own eyes!”
A high-spirited man stood on the bow of the boat, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and an imposing manner, like a tiger that chooses people to eat. He stared at the three people with frowning eyebrows and asked loudly, "Du Sheng from Hongze Lake, do you dare to ask some senior officials?" What’s your surname?”
“Hebei Ding Chengfeng!”
“Longsheng in the middle of Jin Dynasty!”
“Withdraw!”
…
So they arrived in Yangzhou in the evening.
“I was in a down and out wine shop, my waist was slender and my palms were light. I dreamed of Yangzhou for ten years and won the reputation of a brothel.”
You Longsheng first recited a concluding poem, then shook his head and sighed, "Whether it is Baoding Prefecture in Hebei Province, Taiyuan Prefecture in Shanxi Province, or Xi'an Prefecture in Guanzhong, when it comes to prosperity, they are all far behind Yangzhou."
It was already dark at this time. If it were a northern city, it would have been completely dark with only a few lights lit. However, in Yangzhou City at this time, there were actually large swathes of lights. It can be seen that the number of people living here overnight is much higher than in several northern cities. There are a lot more people.
“Yangzhou has been a prosperous place since the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and it has also been a gold-selling cave. It is not just talk about riding a crane down to Yangzhou with one hundred thousand guan in the waist.” Ding Chengfeng said with a smile.
At this time, they were on the third floor of the famous Linxian Pavilion in Yangzhou. On the table were crab meat and lion heads, in the cup was Shaoxing Nuerhong, in the building was playing "Spring River Flowers and Moonlight Night", and on the stage was the top song Xiao Taohong.
This is already the top enjoyment in ancient times.
Ding Baiyun also drank a glass of wine and said calmly, "One of you is not in poverty, and the other is not rich with a hundred thousand yuan. How can you pretend to be a down-and-out scholar or a wealthy businessman, do you show that you are very educated?"
Ding Chengfeng couldn't help but sigh and looked at You Longsheng, "My sister was not like this before."
"Really?" You Longsheng rubbed his chin, "That's really congratulations."
Ding Chengfeng looked confused, "Congratulations?"
You Longsheng nodded, "Congratulations to your sister for growing up. She has a clear mind, sharp eyes, and everything she says is to the point."
Ding Baiyun couldn't help laughing, and then poured a glass of wine for Ding Chengfeng and You Longsheng each, "Don't worry, I will always advise you in the future."
Ding Chengfeng couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and then heard a commotion outside.
“The hero of ‘One Sword Flying Flowers’ is going to have a sword showdown with the ‘Lightning Swordsman’ hero Duwudu!”
