Chapter 36 Unguaranteed
Chapter 36: Unprotectable
"Damn it!" Chen Zairong stomped his feet on the ground, making a thump, and he was full of hatred.
Chen Wanrong moved to his new home and someone came to him, which was too difficult to understand. Without checking the whole story, he couldn't even sleep. The three of them died, which was so disappointing. After thinking about it, he reminded: "Search him to see if there is any token."
One sentence reminded the dreamer that Chen Zairong put away the short sword and searched the black shadow. After a while, there was nothing else except some silver. Sima Chengzhen shook his head: "They will not hesitate to commit suicide to keep the secret, and they will not carry a token on them."
Chen Wanrong had already thought of this, and the mystery could not be untied for the time being, so he sighed. Chen Zairong couldn't help but stroke a black shadow's head, with a look of surprise on his face, and exclaimed: "There is something here."
Chen Wanrong, Sima Chengzhen, Zheng Qing and Qing'e surrounded him. Under the light, Chen Zairong stroked the black shadow's head, turned his right hand and the short sword appeared again in his hand. At the beginning of the sword light, the black shadow's hair fell down one after another, revealing a smooth scalp. A faint crescent-shaped mark on the scalp was particularly conspicuous.
"It's them!" Sima Chengzhen raised his eyebrows, his eyes burst into a flash of light, extremely sharp.
Since he met him, he had never seen him like this. Chen Wanrong was surprised, stared at Sima Chengzhen, and asked anxiously: "Master, do you know where they came from?"
Sima Chengzhen looked solemn and nodded, "Take the body out first, and then clean up the blood."
Chen Zairong went out with his body. Chen Wanrong endured the bloody smell and cleaned the blood. Zheng Qing and Qing'e had never seen such bloody appearance before. His face was pale and he couldn't help but retching. Sima Chengzhen took out two pills and asked them to swallow them, and then he returned to normal. Chen Wanrong had killed someone, but he was adapted to the bloody smell. It was many times better than the discomfort he felt when he treated Wang Shaohua's wounds.
When the processing was completed, Sima Chengzhen sat down, and Chen Wanrong and the others sat down. Sima Chengzhen looked at Chen Wanrong and asked strangely: "My friend, do you have a grudge against others?"
"Why did Taoist priest say this?" Chen Wanrong was confused and immediately asked: "I think it's not good or bad to do things. I have never made any enemies with anyone."
Sima Chengzhen nodded and said, "I can trust my friend's character, but how could this Crescent Sect not get along with me?"
"Crescent Moon School?" Chen Wanrong and the others exclaimed in unison. This name is too strange!
Sima Chengzhen knew that Chen Wanrong and the others did not know this mysterious sect: "No one knew when this Crescent Moon Sect will appear. There are not many people who can know this sect. I was also a disciple who punished the Crescent Moon Sect several years ago, and only then did I know that there was such a mysterious sect."
Knuckles hit the table, Sima Chengzhen pondered: "The biggest feature of this Crescent School is that it likes to accumulate money. They mainly collect money by cheating, and use the guise of curing diseases and saving people. They have always asked big investors to attack, first hurting people, and then coming to treat them. The name is that they do not collect medical funds. In fact, in the name of donations, they charge at least thousands of taels, and at most tens of thousands of taels."
Chen Wanrong slapped the table with his right hand and said in surprise: "Master Taoist, can Liu Sixian and the others be from the Crescent Sect?" Before Sima Chengzhen could speak, Chen Wanrong told the story of Liu Sixian deceiving Sun Zhengping.
Sima Chengzhen touched his beard and pondered: "That's true. Jiang Bingchu is definitely not a righteous person. I thought he was an ordinary alchemist, but I didn't expect that he was actually a figure in the Crescent Sect, and it was probably a small leader."
Jiang Bingchu is very powerful, she is the guest of Princess Taiping. She is just a small leader. The Crescent Moon Sect is too terrifying, and Chen Wanrong was a little stunned. Sima Chengzhen said: "You don't have to be surprised. The Crescent Moon Sect is so mysterious. It is hard to guess its actions. How can a big man show up easily?"
Thinking about it, Chen Wanrong asked, thinking, "Does Taoist Master know more?"
Sima Chengzhen shook his head and said, "It's shameful to say that if I hadn't accidentally punished the disciples of the Crescent Sect who were cheating a few years ago, I wouldn't have known that there was such a sect. However, according to my speculation, there were still their power in Chang'an, and maybe there were their disciples among the officials of the court."
This makes sense, otherwise, with Jiang Bingchu's power, it would not have been possible to send downstream Siping so quickly. It's a pity that if he had known this, he would never let Jiang Bingchu go and interrogate it carefully.
When he met Liu Sixian that day, he heard that there were people in Chang'an and Luoyang. He didn't care at that time, but thought he was a powerful gang of liars. He didn't expect that there was such an amazing secret: "Master, can you tell me about Yunzhen Temple in Chang'an and Yunqing Temple in Luoyang, these two places were told by Liu Sixian."
Sima Chengzhen frowned and thought for a while: "I have never been to these two Taoist temples, so I dare not comment on them. According to my friend, these two must be the secret contact points of the Crescent Sect. Zai Rong, you will send your body to the East Palace and report to the prince. Then report the matters of the two Taoist temples to the prince and send someone to investigate. Maybe there will be unexpected gains."
It is useless to deal with such mysterious sects. Chen Zairong responded and strode away.
Sima Chengzhen continued: "My friend, in my opinion, if you destroy the good things of the Crescent Sect repeatedly, they will definitely not let you go. You have to find a way to protect yourself. Although I am not afraid of them, there are times when my clones are too weak."
Chen Wanrong admired this pertinent suggestion: "Master, tomorrow, I will go to Yanwei Escort Agency and ask the Escort Agency to come and guard the yard."
"That's all!" Sima Chengzhen sighed lightly, and said nothing, that is, I hope Yanwei Escort Agency will not scare the Crescent Sect.
This matter was agreed, and Sima Chengzhen said goodbye and left. Zheng Qing was very anxious: "What should I do?" She was worried about Chen Wanrong's safety.
At that time, Chen Wanrong came forward and thought that as Sun Zhengping's boss, he couldn't argue with him without helping him. He didn't expect to get involved in a mysterious sect. Thinking about it carefully, even if he knew about it at that time, Chen Wanrong would still do this. At least Chen Wanrong still has a sense of justice, but the methods he used would be different.
"Don't worry, it's okay!" Chen Wanrong comforted Zheng Qingqing and Qing'e quietly withdrew.
Zheng Qing pounded Chen Wanrong's shoulder lightly: "I'm still saying it's okay, such a big trouble."
This trouble is not ordinary, it is very big. Not to mention Chen Wanrong, even the important officials of the court will not have a good life. Now that things have come to this, the troubles are useless. Chen Wanrong doesn't take it to heart, laughs and tells Zheng Qing some jokes, which eventually makes Zheng Qing burst into tears.
The next morning, Chen Wanrong was still walking around. When he was having breakfast, Chen Zairong came back and told Prince Chen Wanrong that he had sent someone to investigate. The prince could send many experts, so it would be better to take the crescent moon into one's order. Chen Wanrong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It took too early, Chen Zairong went back to the East Palace to handle the job, and Chen Wanrong went to Yanwei Escort Agency. Yanwei Escort Agency was in Yong'anfang, far from Changlefang. Fortunately, the blue and white feet were dusty, and it would be arrived in a short while.
When I came to the gate of Yanwei Escort Agency, I saw a large mansion with four words "Yanwei Escort Agency" written on the door. The strokes were strong, like iron and silver hooks. Chen Wanrong secretly praised the good words.
Chen Wanrong has been to the Yanwei Escort Agency in Ning County. It was a bit deserted, but it was a different atmosphere. People came and went, flowing endlessly, like a market, and it was very lively. Yanwei Escort Agency, as a number of escort agencies in the Tang Dynasty, was indeed well-known.
When I led the horse into the door, I saw a huge open space, several acres in size, full of all kinds of vehicles, most of which were beautiful tall cars, and very grand. Several emcee hosts were greeted with smiles on their faces, and they were greeted by them.
A servant came up, took the reins, and took the blue and white flowers. Chen Wanrong tidied up his clothes and strode forward. An emcee said kindly: "God of the guest, please."
Chen Wanrong thanked him politely and went straight into the house. This was a big hall full of tables and chairs. Many people sat around the table to drink tea, probably waiting to discuss business. Yanwei Escort Agency has a prominent reputation, not fortunateness. Just looking at these people waiting to discuss business, Chen Wanrong sighed.
Found an empty table, Chen Wanrong sat down, a servant brought tea and floated away. Chen Wanrong took a sip of tea, which was very good. A middle-aged man came over and laughed before he could speak, which made people feel a sense of intimacy: "May I ask, do you have the goods to leave?"
Chen Wanrong shook his head a little, "No. I'm asking you to protect the yard."
"Look at the yard!" The middle-aged man nodded slightly and said, "Please wait." He turned around and left. He came back soon and said to Chen Wanrong, "Please come with me."
Chen Wanrong stood up and walked forward with him. He came to a side hall on the left. The middle-aged man pushed open the door and said, "Please come in!" Chen Wanrong went in, and the middle-aged man closed the door and left on his own.
There was an old man in his fifties sitting in the room, wearing luxurious brocade, wide eyebrows and big foreheads, bright eyes, and a terrifying force when he turned. Chen Wanrong knew that he was a master. The old man stood up and said politely: "Please sit down!"
Chen Wanrong was relieved and sat down. The old man then took his seat and introduced himself first: "I have been honored to know the guests."
All of them were clichés, and Chen Wanrong also responded with clichés: "I'm here Chen Wanrong, I've seen Wan Biao Head."
"Oh, are you Manager Chen?" Wan Qiaoliang's eyes were particularly bright. He looked at Chen Wanrong very carefully and did not miss a single detail.
Chen Wanrong and Yanwei Escort Agency signed a very special agreement. As the top escort agency, Wan Qiaoliang naturally knew. Chen Wanrong nodded and confirmed it and went straight to the topic: "Wanwei Escort, I came here today because I have something to ask Yanwei Escort Agency for help."
Wan Qiaoliang said very readily: "Please rest assured, Shopkeeper Chen, we will definitely do your business. It is our honor to consider our Yanwei Escort Agency. I just wonder if Shopkeeper Chen has special requirements?" The implication is to ask Chen Wanrong what kind of agreement is signed, whether it is the same as Ning County, or has other requirements.
Chen Wanrong did not answer his question, but looked solemn: "Wan Pao Head, I think it is necessary to meet the Chief Pao Head."
Wan Qiaoliang naturally understood what he meant, which means that you can't make the decision. His face was slightly dark and he was a little unhappy: "Shopkeeper Chen is so kind to ask for his heart, Wan can still make the decision."
Chen Wanrong seemed to have not heard the confidence in his words: "Have Wanpai Head heard of the Crescent Sect?"
"Crescent Moon Sect?" Wan Qiaoliang browed, and a sharp light shot out in his eyes. He stared at Chen Wanrong and shouted softly: "Shopkeeper Chen, are you from the Crescent Moon Sect?"
Chen Wanrong laughed and said, "Wan Pao Head, do you think I look like it? Last night, the Crescent School sent someone to my mansion to deal with me, so I want to talk to the Chief Pao Head." Since it is a cooperation, it is better to say it clearly. There is no need to deceive me. If you have the strength, you can take it. If you don't have the strength, you won't harm others.
Wan Qiaoliang's face improved and he smiled and said, "So that's the case. Please forgive Wan for being rude. Storekeeper Chen, please wait, I'll come when I go." Without waiting for Chen Wanrong to speak, he left on his own.
Chen Wanrong knew that he must have gone to tell the Chief of the Imperial Head. If he was an ordinary guardian of the house, he would be able to make the decision, but the Crescent Sect was too mysterious and powerful. Whether he would take over the next thing was not the final decision. The Chief of the Imperial Head decided. It was precisely because of this that Chen Wanrong insisted on meeting the Chief of the Imperial Head.
The footsteps sounded, and two people appeared at the door, one was Wan Qiaoliang and the other was a middle-aged man. He was not tall, but he had his own mighty power and his steps were light. Chen Wanrong knew that he was a master.
Wan Qiaoliang introduced: "The chief escort, this is the shopkeeper Chen. The shopkeeper Chen, this is our chief escort."
The head of the chief escort was surnamed Yan and named Yanxing, and he clasped his fists: "Yanxing has met Manager Chen."
Chen Wanrong hurriedly replied: "Chen Wanrong has met the chief escort leader."
"Please sit, please sit!" Yan Xing enthusiastically invited Chen Wanrong to sit down, without going around the circle, and went straight to the topic: "Shopkeeper Chen, can you tell me about the affair with the Crescent Sect?"
He wanted to understand the situation and then decide whether to take the job. Chen Wanrong understood what he meant and nodded, "It's all right." He started with Sun Zhengping being deceived and sold the winery, and said it in detail.
Wan Qiaoliang was amazed: "Although Storekeeper Chen is among the merchants, he has such chivalrous courage. Wan admires it, admires it!"
This is said sincerely, and it is definitely not a lie. Chen Wanrong is humble: "Wan PaoTou is too much, so I dare not take it. I just did what a boss should do."
Yan Xing highly praised Chen Wanrong's humble character: "It's rare that Manager Chen doesn't remember the incest! Although Manager Sun is your subordinate, if someone else is a different person, he would not be able to take care of this matter. He would rather not have a winery than cause trouble. Yan Xing really admires it!"
"May I ask the chief escort, are I lucky enough to get your help?" Chen Wanrong looked at the two of them.
Wan Qiaoliang wanted to speak, but in the end he didn't say anything. He looked at Yan Xing. Yan Xing did not express his opinion immediately, but pondered. Chen Wanrong knew what he thought and would definitely not want to mess with the Crescent Sect for this little money. Fortunately, he made it clear first. If it was not explained, they would understand it and not know what to do.
The Crescent Sect is too mysterious and has no power. Yanwei Escort Agency doesn't want to mess with it. After all, it's too unwise to have a party with a powerful sect for the sake of this little money. Although the two admire Chen Wanrong very much, they can't compensate the Escort Agency.
Chen Wanrong understood the man, stood up with a smile and said, "God of the head, say goodbye."
Yan Xing was a little embarrassed and his smile was a little stiff: "Shopkeeper Chen, let's consider this matter."
"Then I'll wait for your decision!" Chen Wanrong threw down a cold sentence and walked away quickly.
Yan Xing and Wan Qiaoliang were embarrassed, hesitated for a moment, quickly chased after him, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Chen, you misunderstood. We are not not accepting it. You have to let us discuss it, right?" Yan Xing felt very uncomfortable after protecting the escort for a lifetime, so he had no trouble retreating.
"It's easy to say!" Chen Wanrong took the reins handed over by the servant, flew onto a horse, said goodbye, and galloped away. Looking at Chen Wanrong's back, Yan Xing and Wan Qiaoliang looked at each other, shook their heads at the same time, helpless.
"General's escort, if this matter is spread, it will be very unfavorable to us!" Wan Qiaoliang reminded.
The reason why Yanwei Escort Agency is famous is that it dares to take escorts that others dare not take. Now it doesn’t even dare to take escorts at the guard house. If it spreads out, its reputation will be greatly damaged. Yan Xing sighed: "It’s better than ruining it for people! Thousands of people from all over the country want to eat."
Wan Qiaoliang knew that Yan Xing had to consider the escort agency as the chief escort, which was also the truth. After thinking about it, he said, "General escort, why don't we talk to the Xinyue Sect first, and then the next thing will be done." The escort agency relies on a wide range of people, flexible wrists, and force is second. This makes sense.
Yan Xing shook his head: "I thought about it, but it just doesn't work. You also know that the Crescent Sect is cruel and vicious. Since it has a grudge against Manager Chen, there is no reason to give up. Alas!" He sighed.
The Yanwei Escort Agency did not accept it, both as Chen Wanrong expected and as expected. Yan Xing was unwilling to provoke the Crescent Sect for the escort agency. This was normal. However, even such a prestigious escort agency in Yanwei Escort Agency did not dare to provoke the Crescent Sect, which proved that its power was unusually powerful, which Chen Wanrong did not expect.
Chen Wanrong was born not the kind of person who blamed others. He did not resent Yan Xing, and he didn't even have the interest to complain about a few words. Since the escort agency did not accept it, it depends on himself. Isn't chemistry a lot of killing skills? Now it's time to come in handy!
