Chapter 59: Insiders
Luo Ruxu is a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a black robe, which is very different from the ordinary Feng Guo people. He holds an emerald green bamboo stick in his hand. After the guests and guests greet him, Guan Mu welcomes him into the inner room and has met Han Mo again, and smiles: "This is my nephew, come here to help... Lord Fengsi, how can you have time to come here so late?"
Luo Ruxu was obviously very familiar with this place. He sat down on the chair with a big thorn, and then said, "The pearls inside are almost gone. Come and see if there are any pearls!"
Guan Mu smiled and said, "Is it the high priest who wants to use it?"
Luo Ruxu nodded: "Yes. The high priest likes to put some pearl powder in the tea, you know that."
"Mr. Fengsi is here at the right time. I just got new tea here and am about to ask Master Fengsi to have a first-class taste!" Guan Mu smiled and said, "Looking at Fengguo, only Master Fengsi is a real tea ceremony master!"
Luo Ruxu looked smug and said, "I know all the tea here, what else is there?" He glanced at Han Mo and frowned slightly, as if he didn't want Han Mo to stay in the room.
Guan Mucha's ability to speak and look was very powerful, but he was not in a hurry to let Han Mo go down. He just smiled and said, "My Lord Fengsi, in fact, this tea was brought by my nephew, who heard that the Lord has this preference and brought it here specifically!"
Han Mo was so agile, and immediately reacted, bowed and smiled, "That's right. I heard from my uncle that Lord Fengsi is a master of tea ceremony in Fengguo, so I searched around and found a new tea. Please ask Lord Fengsi to taste it!"
Since Guan Mu gave a reminder, Han Mo naturally understood that Guan Mu would definitely be able to bring out fresh tea.
Luo Ruxu showed doubts, but Guan Mu had already started to take out the tea and make tea. After brewing, he personally brought it to Luo Ruxu and smiled and said, "Mr. Fengsi, you can try it!"
Luo Ruxu picked up the teacup, smelled it, and looked surprised on his face. "The taste of this tea is strange, and there seems to be another flavor in the fragrance of the tea!" He sniffed his eyes slightly, as if he was still savoring it. After a short moment, he said: "It's really fresh, and the tea is naturally of a good taste, but... there seems to be a milky smell in the middle...!" Xiang Guan Mu asked, "Lao Guan, what kind of tea are you? I really haven't tasted it!"
Guan Mu Fuxu smiled and said, "This tea is the best Qingquan tea, but it has undergone a unique treatment!"
"How do you say this?"
"This is to first select the exquisite Qingquan tea, and then soak it in the milk... They are all fresh milk for the first five days, soak it for half a month, and then bake it!" Guan Mu smiled and said, "The milky flavor penetrates the tea, and the tea flavor and milky flavor. The water used to make tea is also the spring rain water I have accumulated. The three flavors are mixed together, which is extremely rare!"
Han Mo heard this and felt a little interested. He had never studied tea ceremony. At this time, when he heard Guan Mu talk about this strange tea-making method, he felt it was a bit strange.
Luo Ruxu sighed: "You Qing people's minds are always so complicated, and you can think of such a method!" He smiled at Han Mo and said, "Young people are intent!"
Han Mo knew that his last words were to express his gratitude to him, and Luo Ruxu obviously really thought that Han Mo brought this tea to him to respect him.
"Just Master Fengsi likes it!" Han Mo tried his best to show humility. Guan Mu left himself in the house and won Luo Ruxu like this, but I was afraid that things would not be simple.
Guan Mu didn't ask Han Mo to sit down, but he just sat down next to Luo Ruxu, and said, "This tea is rare, but I bring some for Lord Fengsi. I will take it back and taste it slowly later. But... this pearl will only arrive tomorrow. They are all top-notch good beads. Why don't I send someone to the city tomorrow?"
Luo Ruxu frowned slightly: "Enter the city?"
Guan Mu hurriedly smiled and said, "It depends on the instructions of Lord Fengsi. A batch of goods came today, but the pearls were not included... The pearls were expensive, so they were secretly transported to them and they would not arrive tomorrow. There are only a few pearls left in the warehouse, and even if Lord Fengsi takes them back, it is not enough."
Luo Ruxu thought for a while, but did not speak immediately.
Guan Mu invited Luo Ruxu to drink tea again, and then whispered: "Master Fengsi, it is common to deliver goods to the city. Master seems to be in a difficult situation today. Could something have happened?"
Luo Ruxu frowned and looked at Han Mo. Guan Mu had already said softly: "Don't worry, Lord Fengsi, my nephew kept his mouth tightly. He would not reveal a word if he shouldn't say anything. This child has little worldly appearance, so I will take him by his side to let him see the world... Lord Fengsi is an amazing figure in Fengguo. Every word and action is what he wants to learn well!"
Luo Ruxu was just a Mai Fengsi under the high priest of the Holy Altar of Shenshan City. He was not a high official, but Guan Mu was respectful and said this, which always made Luo Ruxu feel very comfortable. He waved his hand and smiled: "Is it just a servant of the high priest? Is it an amazing person? Lao Guan, don't talk nonsense!"
Guan Mu said seriously: "It is not a false statement. Lord Fengsi is responsible for purchasing, and Lord Fengsi is responsible for the food and clothing of the high priest... The high priest can hand over food and clothing to Lord Fengsi, but that is a very trustworthy person in the high priest. I am afraid there are not many people in Fengguo who trust so much, right?"
When Luo Ruxu heard this, his face smiled like an orange flower, showing a little priest: "If you say trust, the high priest believed in someone!" After a pause, he sighed: "It's not impossible to enter the city, but there have been many things recently, and the city's guards are so strict... It's always inconvenient for strangers to enter!"
"What can happen if the iron walls of Shenshan City are covered with iron walls?" Guan Mufuxu said: "The inner and outer cities are protected by the most elite warriors of the Feng Kingdom. I am afraid that even a fly will not fly in!"
Luo Ruxu shook his head, glanced at Han Mo, then approached Guan Mu and said, "This kid... is really a tight mouth?"
"Don't worry, Lord Fengsi, I can't bring out this room if I speak here!"
Luo Ruxu nodded and said, "Since you say that, there is no problem. Lao Guan, you know that this person can't control his mouth. Many things are in his heart. He always likes to talk to you if there are any things... But you know in your heart that if some things are spread, some will be punished, but you are afraid that it will be even more dangerous!"
Guan Mu nodded and said, "Don't worry, Lord Fengsi, I understand this!"
Luo Ruxu then smiled bitterly and said, "Speaking of this, Shenshan City can be considered a wall of iron, and ordinary people can't get in at all. But you don't know that recently, there have been troubles in a row... Just say that three days ago, a group of red-headed men sneaked into Shenshan City and almost rushed into the inner city. Fortunately, it was a trap set by Chief Guard of Ganli, so there was nothing wrong with it, otherwise it would be very dangerous."
"trap?"
"Yes!" Luo Ruxu lowered his voice and said, "There was actually a Redheaded Guard among the guards in the outer city. After an appointment, he secretly sent the Redheaded Guard to the city to assassinate the chief. However, the Guard of Ganli had already known their plan in advance, and deliberately set up the net to wait for them to enter the city and then catch them all in one go... That night, more than twenty Redheaded Guard of the Redheads entered the city, and they were ambushed, and a killing battle almost killed the group of Redheads. But the group of Redheads was really powerful, and several of them ran away. The Guard of Ganli had to guard the city and not leave the city, so he sent the Yilianleiwei Banner to chase the cap... But today, the Feng Warrior who had already received the letter, died a dozen of them, and even the Yilianleiwei Banner was cut off his throat...!"
Han Mo heard it and realized in his heart that the red-headed men he had met were the main criminals who planned to assassinate the chief and the fish that missed the net in the assassination plan.
But the commander of Ganli guards mentioned by Luo Ruxu didn't know if it was the white snake Ganlitai that Han Qing mentioned?
The black snake Aprolu had been sniped in Yan State. Now the strongest man under the Southern Snake Busugan is the white snake Ganlitai, but he doesn't know whether Busugan already knows that the black snake Aprolu of his subordinates has died on the land of Yan State.
However, these news are not what Han Mo wants to hear the most. The news he wants to hear the most is about Zhu Xiaoyan's whereabouts.
In order to save Han Qing from leaving, Zhu Xiaoyan stayed alone and fell into the opponent. His life and death are uncertain, which is really worrying!
Guan Mu glanced at Han Mo and then smiled and said to Luo Ruxu, "Mr. Fengsi is frightened!" After pausing, he asked softly, "Mr. Fengsi said that the Shenshan City has been in trouble all the time. Apart from the Red-Headed Man, are there any other troubles?"
Luo Ruxu wanted to speak but stopped, but he picked up the tea and savored it gently, but did not speak for a while.
Guan Mu smiled and said, "Mr. Fengsi, this time, in addition to tea, my nephew also made a lot of specialties to the adults. Let's take them back and appreciate them!" Suddenly, he stood up and said, "Sir, wait a moment, other things are normal. There is a thing that you want to have a sneak peek!"
Luo Ruxu's eyes showed a hint of joy, but it disappeared in an instant, and he just said "Oh".
Guan Mu got up and went out, came back soon, took a box, placed it on the table, and whispered: "Sir Fengsi, come and have a look!"
Luo Ruxu put down the teacup and stood up. Guan Mu had already opened the box. Han Mo could see clearly that it was a jade Ruyi!
Luo Ruxu's eyes lit up, but Guan Mu had already closed the box and handed it to Luo Ruxu, saying, "Master Fengsi, the red-headed man is unstoppable. This jade Ruyi is hoping that all the masters will go well. It is my wish. Please accept it!"
"This... how can this be!" Luo Ruxu said this, but his hand had already taken the box, and his face was filled with a look of joy that could not be concealed.
"If you don't accept it, you won't treat me as a friend!" Guan Mu said seriously: "I just hope that you will be safe and well and everything will go well. This is the etiquette of our people in the country. You cannot refuse!"
"Old Guan, if you refuse, you will be disrespectful!" Luo Ruxu hugged the box tightly, then sat down again, holding the box in his arms, but he was reluctant to put it down, but the expression on his face became cautious, and he lowered his voice: "There has been a big deal recently, but... this matter is important, and I haven't told you. However, you are the most trusted friend. If you don't say it out, you will feel uncomfortable. So I told you, but you can't reveal anything to the outside, otherwise... I'm afraid of a murder!"
At this time, Han Mo finally understood what the relationship between Lord Fengsi and Guan Mu was.
This Fengsi Lord is greedy for money, and Guan Mu is most in short supply of money. Because of the purchasing relationship, the two parties have developed into information transactions since the beginning of buying and selling items.
To put it bluntly, this Guan Mu claimed to be the Lord of the Zhijiao Fengsi was just a sacred mountain city where Guan Mu used money to trap him!
