Chapter 564: The Secret of a French Merchant

The trip to Kiyomizu-ji Temple was an unexpected harvest when you met Love Dou for the first time, squatting at the head of Okuda, who doesn't know which girl.

Since we have made a deal with each other, Zhang Heng is not in any hurry.

Although Okuda has a nagging cough, it shouldn't hang up for a while, and as this copy is suspected to have the highest strength, it's like a perfumed main course, once you eat it, you may not be in the mood to try other appetizers.

Therefore, Zhang Heng doesn't care to push the time of the test backwards. Anyway, he doesn't have anything else to do. The two knives he borrowed from the Peacock Hall and another dojo look boutique, but unfortunately, like that rib difference, there is still a gap between the famous products.

Especially the Mitsukoshi casting knife of the Three Pools Dictionary at the Peacock Hall. Not to mention Mitsukoshi the Great Dictionary. Zhang Heng later approached a special collector to identify it, and was not even sure if it was really Mitsukoshi the Three Pools Dictionary.

This is also the troublesome part of this copy. According to the Red Sword, the knife appearing here, even if held in his hand, did not have the corresponding prompt to obtain props. Like the Yonglu change experienced by Red Sword himself, as well as the demon knife experienced by her friend, the present world copy has clear goals to look for, while Zhang Heng entered the end of the scene Kyoto copy is the wind and cloud, which means that he will have to make a choice in the end.

But now he doesn't have to worry about it for the time being, just let go of challenging the master of the road and collect the knife.

…………

Another week has passed since the trip to Kiyomizu Temple.

Changzhou Clan's people never came to get revenge. Zhang Hengben still felt a little strange. It doesn't make sense to act like those people did for so long. Unless something more important happened, and now he finally gets the news that Jin Takasu, who was cured in Cherry Mountain, died of illness.

This is indeed a tremendous thing that shook the heavens.

Jin Takasu, the leader of the overthrow faction of the Changzhou clan, was radical in his early years, planned to assassinate Westerners, set fire to the British embassy, forced Xiaohuang to issue pardon paper tomorrow, then formed another army of wonder soldiers to fall down, the door became honorable Wang Yiyi, and he was forced to sign a customs treaty with the British and American francs on behalf of the Changzhou clan, renouncing Yiyi, When the Changzhou clan succumbed to the curtain, he lived in exile for some time, but not long ago, together with Ito Bowen, seized the power of the Changzhou clan, and carried out a series of westernization reforms to put the Changzhou clan on the path of prosperity, and defeated the Shogun fleet in the ensuing Oshima and Kokura counter-attacks. However, such a heroic figure eventually failed. Little nagging on.

He eventually died on his bed on the eve of the new era.

You can imagine how distressed and sad the Changzhou clans are now in Kyoto. No wonder they can't take care of this side of the hillside field for the time being.

Zhang Heng had no feelings about the death of Jinzhou Takasu. He didn't stand anywhere anyway. He was a Guan Eater Party. Compared to this news that shook the world, he cared more about the other news - Zhumaru Hengshi entered the capital!

Hengji Nu Zhumaru is one of the five swords nearest to the name of the March Moon Sect. He is a treasure of Benxing Temple, and the holder of it today is Hanjiro Nakamura, who was honored as the last four people to chop him.

This man is a knife of Samoan leader Lungsheng Xixiang in the dark, willing to abandon the honor of the samurai in order to overthrow the cause, become a killer specializing in the assassination of the shogun claw teeth, countless officials of the shogun died on his hands, in preference to the news of his arrival in Kyoto on the bone of the death of Jinzhou Takasu, which is unimaginable.

Samoan, is this a big move to make with the death of our ally Jin Takasu?

At a time when the dark flow began to rise again in Kyoto City, the waves of the new selection group and the reunion group were patrolling the streets with knives every day, yet Hanjiro Nakamura had not been found, but the people around them had been harassed by them in the first place. The emperor and the princess watched the crowd in the Imperial City, and everyone was in danger from the opposite side of the curtain.

Zhang Heng was also following the development of the situation. He rarely obtained the exact whereabouts of the five swords in the world. Of course, he wanted to use this opportunity to keep Zhumaru in his pocket, provided that he had to find Hanjiro Nakamura before the new selection group, which was not easy. There were also a lot of downright forces in Kyoto, and no one knew where Hanjiro Nakamura was hiding.

And the French businessman on the other side, because of the painstaking performance during this time, has let the little tail behind him get smaller and smaller, and then the news of Hanjiro Nakamura entering Beijing, finally no one is in the mood to stare at him anymore.

So Gabrielle found Zhang Heng this afternoon, quite mysteriously asked, "Are you all right tomorrow night? ”

“Hmm?” Zhang Heng picked his eyebrows.

“Tomorrow night there's a pretty important party for you to be a translator, don't worry, if you do well, I can pay you ten small judgments at once.” The French businessman added.

It is true that the job of translator has so far not been generally relaxing and totally out of proportion to the generous remuneration, but Zhang Heng is well aware that this situation will not last. Now that the carnival has finally been brought up, he believes that if he promises Gabrielle, he will know what the French businessman has been up to tomorrow night.

But I'm afraid this time the money isn't so good.

Whatever the other party intends to do is obviously unspeakable. Zhang Heng will not be naive enough to think that Gabrielle will really believe in the confidentiality of this stranger, so it is easy to guess what the other party intends to do after “using” him.

Zhang Heng now needs to make a decision whether or not to take this risk. If he simply wants to pay for the ten small judgments, he will now turn around and go. Anyway, he has made a lot of money in this time, and Xiao Shanxi has always said he will waive the rent, but he refused to do so. If he doesn't help him, he can continue to make money for other businessmen as translators, but he only gets a little less.

But what really interests Zhang Heng is the people Gabrielle is going to contact.

Now that he knows that it was the people behind the curtain who had followed the French businessmen before, that means that Gabriel is likely to be in contact with the downfall forces, and Zhang Heng is now just trying to find Hanjiro Numatsumaru, and Hanjiro Nakamura's whereabouts still fall on the group of downfall forces.

Therefore, it is difficult for Zhang Heng to refuse the banquet trip tomorrow night. This is the only useful clue he has at this stage, and he also has confidence in his knife method. Therefore, Zhang Heng pondered for a moment and agreed to Gabrielle's request, which seemed relieved when he heard the news.

“Great, I'll see you at the old place tomorrow night. ”
