At this point, Wu Tianzhen finally realized that there was no need to talk about life and death friendship or business commission. The two people in front of him were indeed a married couple. They were simply like-minded and were ready to hand him over without any hesitation.

If he were an ordinary wanderer, he would probably have been sold out and would still be counting money for these two people. However, Wu Tianzhen came from a prominent family after all, so this kind of scene could not scare him.

However, just as he was about to open his mouth to refute, another unexpected incident directly interrupted Wu Tianzhen's idea.

"Oh my god, look at the river, what is that thing? It looks like it's heading towards the City God Temple!"

"From the head it looks like a dog, but the body shape looks more like a human!"

"Oh my god, these muscle lines are too tempting... too exaggerated, the world is really going downhill."

"Then look at this girl. Whose family is this? She's not afraid of getting a stye."

"Don't just stand there and watch. Anyone who can swim? Come with me and find a boat to get into the water. Many Taiping Guards have been knocked into the canal by that thing."

It was noon, the busiest time of the day, and with such a lively scene, one can imagine how many people were watching.

However, it is said that laymen watch the excitement while experts see the details.

Looking up at Zhang San's calm face, as if he understood everything that was happening before his eyes, Wu Tianzhen's surprise almost became real, and the words he had prepared couldn't help but tremble.

"Sir, is this haunted again?"

"Yeah, I see."

"Isn't it a bit too blatant to come out in broad daylight? This is completely disrespectful of the imperial court. As a canonized foreigner in Taiping County, you don't want to do anything about it?"

The three people present were all thousand-year-old foxes, with minds far more shrewd than ordinary people. Looking at the direction the dog-headed ghost was heading, Wu Tianzhen couldn't help but muster up the courage to ask indirectly in order to eliminate the answer that he least wanted to know.

Even if it was just to deceive him, as long as Zhang San could show mercy and get him out of this matter, even if he had to stay in the dungeon of Taipingwei for the rest of his life, Wu Tianzhen would accept it.

But what makes people lament is that if Zhang San did that, why did he drag Wu Tianzhen into it before? "I want to do that, but you can see that the dog head is going to the City God Temple. As a canonized stranger in Taiping County, I have to avoid suspicion, so that the seniors won't say that I am making a fuss.

But your words do remind me that as the sharp sword of the Jin Dynasty, how can I, the Taiping Guard, put the people in danger for my own selfish reasons? "

Having said that, Zhang San shouted towards the bridgehead.

"Hey, Lao Yuan, did you hear what Brother Wu said? Why are you still standing here?"

Zhang San's words were like a spark thrown into a barrel of explosives. There was not even any rehearsal. As soon as he finished speaking, all the Taiping Guards stationed outside drew their swords, and the military momentum was as powerful as that of heavenly soldiers and generals.

Such a strong team should be able to kill any enemy that stands in their way. Seeing this scene, Wu Tianzhen couldn't help but have this illusion in his mind.

But before he could come to his senses, Zhang San's next words directly pulled him from reality into hell.

“Bang!”

Cupping the right hand and bowing is just the most common etiquette in the Great Jin Dynasty. However, with hundreds of years of experience, Zhang San's noble aura has almost become a reality.

"Si Rui would like to express his gratitude to Mr. Wu on behalf of the 80,000 people who survived in Taiping County. If you had not persuaded me with emotion and reason, and even risked your own life, I would never have the courage to destroy the City God Temple!"

Zhang San's movements were so skillful, as if he had rehearsed them hundreds or thousands of times. Even the veteran actress Gu Xuanyan could hardly find any fault with them.

Because of the unusual mobilization of the Taiping Guards, the onlookers also began to turn their attention to the Tengyun Bridge. Seeing that Wu Tianzhen was still a little dazed at this time, Gu Xuanyan followed suit.

"On behalf of the 80,000 people who survived in Taiping County, I would like to thank Mr. Wu for his kindness. Ahem!!"

In order to exaggerate her emotions to the extreme, Gu Xuanyan almost shouted at the loudest volume in her life when she said this. Due to her natural weakness, not to mention the hoarseness of her voice, she almost coughed up blood after shouting this sentence.

Due to the stop signs all around, there were only three of them on the Tengyun Bridge at this time, and the topic of their conversation also stopped at the three of them.

As for what they actually talked about, didn’t you see that the person who was enthroned as Yi Ren in Taiping County and his wife both shouted it out?

Don't worry about whether it's right or not. If I don't express my feelings at this time, wouldn't it seem a bit unsociable? "We thank Mr. Wu for his kindness!"

There are many literati and poets in the water towns of the south of the Yangtze River. Their minds are much more active than those of the rough men in the north of the Great Wall. They did not give Wu Tianzhen a chance to refute, and their voices echoed across both sides of the strait. For a moment, it was quite like the scene when Li Bai wrote "Early Departure from Baidi City".

However, whether Wu Tianzhen at this moment has the heroic and romantic spirit of the immortal poet is a matter of opinion.

"You...you...I...I..."

"Sir, please take care of yourself and don't delay going down to the river to survey the hydrology tonight."

[Wu Tianzhen: Good fellow, you almost pissed me off to death. You are just worried about the cofferdam later! No, if this goes wrong, not to mention Zhang San, I am afraid he himself will have no future.]

After pinching Zhang San's palm fiercely and taking several deep breaths, Wu Tianzhen finally recovered.

"If there is no imperial decree, starting a war in the City God Temple without any reason is the same as treason, do you know that?"

After all, it is a place promised by Emperor Taizu for heroes. The city gods of various places were considered founding heroes during their lifetime, so it is understandable that they have some privileges.

It's just that the imperial edict has the final right of interpretation. If it is really so unshakable, then why add the premise of an imperial decree? How can I let others sleep peacefully beside my bed!

Not only did they not get the status, but the future commercial center was also razed to the ground.

He suffered such a huge loss for no reason. Not to mention that Zhang San himself was a vengeful person, even a person with a good character would probably be furious because of the number of casualties.

In fact, the City God Temple can't really blame him. When the dad is angry, he will vent his anger on the naughty kid. In a situation where the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, who else can Zhang San trouble if not him?

However, there is imperial suppression after all, and when it comes to specific operations, Zhang San will choose to avoid the limelight, and Wu Tianzhen, who was born extraordinary, becomes his best tool. After all, the law does not hold everyone responsible.

After giving an embarrassed smile to Wu Tianzhen who was glaring at the side, Zhang San said righteously.

"I can't compare to Brother Wu's loyalty, but for the sake of the peace of Taiping County, I, Zhang Sirui, will not regret it even if I die nine times!"

【Wu Tianzhen: I have a phrase in my mind that I don’t know whether I should say it or not! Our relationship is not that close, if you are anxious to kill all the nine clans, can you please not take me with you?】
