old grace
Chapter 45
After sending off Fu Chuan, Xie Qinghe let Xiuniang and the child sleep for a while, while he drove to Anyang City.
Lord Long's horse was harnessed to the old man, basically relying on the old man's guidance, Xie Qinghe sat on the shaft of the chariot, made seals continuously to calm his mind, burned to death thousands of demons who took the opportunity to rebel in his body, and then gradually calmed down.
Just now when he released his cultivation base to help Fu Chuan kill the enemy, the demons in Xie Qinghe's body immediately rebelled.
Even if he suppressed it with one hand, the memory was still partly confused.He didn't want Fu Chuan to see his flaws, so he wanted to split up.
The carriage wobbled back to the official road and drove towards Anyang City. Xie Qinghe only had a third of consciousness to watch the road outside.It is difficult to build roads these years, and there is only one official road. The road to Anyang City rarely has a big fork, so there is no need to spend too much thought.
The remaining [-]% of Xie Qinghe's consciousness is used to separate his memories and emotions confused by demons.
Over the years, whenever he has spare time, he has been solving the evil troubles in his body.There are more than tens of millions of demons he has dealt with.Based on the one-to-two probability of becoming a demon, he has approached demons nearly a hundred times in his life.It's like a mortal reincarnated a hundred times.
After experiencing a lot, staying in other people's lives for too long, the boundary between reality and obsession will gradually blur, and even time will become blurred.
After Xie Qinghe frightened the demons in his body, he skillfully extracted his own memory and gradually calmed down.
At this time, the sky has gradually brightened, and Anyang City is close at hand.
Caravans and civilians who were already preparing to enter the city lined up at different gates. Everything was in order, and the city gate guards were also very calm.
From this point of view, the Anyang City Government should not know that there was a battle ten miles away last night, and the Dragon Scale Guard probably did not handle the matter through the local government.Otherwise, after so many days, the news of Luoma City should have spread to various places long ago, and the pictures of Fu Chuan's capture should have been posted.
Although Xie Qinghe has a carriage, he is not a merchant who sells goods. He was in the queue of common people entering the city, and was soon let go.
Anyang is an ancient city, and it has not undergone major changes in these years. Based on his early memories, Xie Qinghe successfully found the Xianju Inn in the south of the city, rented a room, put Xiuniang and the two children down, and put some on the cabinet. Silver is called to take care of Xiuniang's soup, medicine and diet.
After setting up Xiu Niang, he took some important items on the carriage back into the space, such as the secret book he was writing.
When I went out, I wanted to go directly to the Four Seas Bank, but then I realized that I hadn't slept all night and was focused on fighting and killing people. This heavily burdened body was exhausted.It happened that there was a carriage and horse dealership at the door. He wanted to find a sliding pole to sit in, but he only had a sedan chair with airtight surroundings - if he wanted to be wider and more comfortable, it would depend on his status and title, and ordinary people were not qualified to sit in it.
All right, a small sedan chair is also a sedan chair.Xie Qinghe paid half of the money first, and asked someone to carry it to the Four Seas Bank.
This airtight little sedan chair shook violently.Xie Qinghe sat in it staggering, so he could only comfort himself that it was better than walking or riding a horse.
He missed Yun Chao again.If Yun Chao is here, it's fine to take a car... Thinking of this, Xie Qinghe suddenly felt that he had made a fool of himself.Why hire a sedan chair?Hire a coachman, sit in your own carriage, and go slowly all the way, isn't it moist and comfortable? !
Fortunately, Anyang City is not very big, the sedan chair soon stopped at the entrance of the Four Seas Bank, and Xie Qinghe paid the money.
The bearer asked attentively, "Do you want to wait for the master?"
"No need." Xie Qinghe no longer wanted to sit in a sedan chair.
The Four Seas Bank is not yet open for business.At this time, the genius had just dawned, and the first to wake up in the city were the stalls and shops selling breakfast, and there were also some hawkers selling flowers and vegetables.Shops such as money stores and fabrics will not open so early.
Xie Qinghe doesn't need the bank to open the door either.
He glanced in front of the door, with his long sleeves turned slightly, and an upper rune sword was quickly nailed to the lintel of the Four Seas Bank.
Like the flying kite, the talisman swords are secret treasures handed down from the ancestors of the Hanjiang Sword Sect. There are five in total, which are connected to the Great Mountain Guard Formation of the Hanjiang Sword Sect.
Fu Chuan thought that using the talisman sword would disturb Shangguan Shiyi, but it was a child who was ignorant.The function of the talisman sword is to include the designated area as a part of the Hanjiang Sword Sect, and by default it will be within the protection area of the mountain guard formation.
Xie Qinghe nailed the upper talisman sword on the lintel to use as an eye, and then walked around the Four Seas Bank, fearing that the protection area would not be spacious enough, he even surrounded the antique shops and pawnshops near the Four Seas Bank.
Outsiders only saw Xie Qinghe strolling in the street with his hands behind his back, and didn't know that he was setting up a protective formation.
After finishing the work near the Four Seas Bank, Xie Qinghe still had to go to the Jinxiu Cloth Shop, Xiuzhenfang, and Hanmotang according to the address given by his younger brother to set it up one by one.These shops are all located in different squares in Anyang City, Xie Qinghe didn't want to hold back in the sedan chair anymore, and walked all the way.
After he circled Jinxiu Cloth Village and Xiuzhenfang into the range of Shangfu Sword, the entire Anyang City gradually woke up.
Hanmotang is already dismantling the door panels, ready to open for business.
Xie Qinghe walked around the door, and a clerk came out to say hello: "Master, would you like to see the pen, ink, paper and inkstone? The new spring knife paper."
Spring knife paper?Xie Qinghe was a little moved.
He has been living in seclusion in the dense forest all these years, so the purchase must be nearby.What good things can there be in town?
Occasionally, Yun Chao is asked to go to a big city farther away to pick up some good things. Yun Chao is really not a material for serving people.Go out with a list, good guy, everything is right, it’s all defective—if you don’t know how to pick, who will you cheat?
Anyway, we've already reached the door, so it's not bad to take care of the business of the younger brother.Xie Qinghe entered the door with this mentality.
The guy hurriedly called the guy B who was still eating inside to come out to remove the door panel, and he followed Xie Qinghe to wait on the servants, and took Xie Qinghe around his shop.Xie Qinghe's feeling is particularly strange: "Gushu flower paper, emerald paper... These things are not fashionable in the Northland, right? The practice is also uncommon. Your shop is fully stocked."
Staff A nodded and bowed his head and introduced: "So that the respected guests know that the flower paper here is the favorite of an elder of the master. The master said that since the elder loves it, it must be a good thing. The family workshop makes it every year." The previous batch was distributed to Hanmo Halls everywhere, and those who are destined can share it."
The beloved object of an elder.
Xie Qinghe put down the jasmine paper with a faint fragrance in his hand, and glanced at the complicated paper in front of him.
...Isn't it because I'm being self-indulgent?
Fu Chuan practiced in Hanshan Mountain, and Li Qian took care of all the properties under the mountain.
Fu Chuan certainly wouldn't know Xie Qinghe's pen and ink habits. Li Qian was different. He had seen Xie Qinghe's bewitched life, what kind of brushes Xie Qinghe likes to use, what kind of inks he likes to use, what arty flower papers he has made... Li Qian knows everything.
However, if you want to make the paper workshop produce so many complicated flower papers and extravagant paper every year, you must give Fu Chuan a nod.
Little junior brother's intentions, let's accept it with a smile.Xie Qinghe pointed to that row: "Wrap them up."
It's just paper.
Xie Qinghe took a step forward, and saw his favorite ink and inkstone again.
"Wrap it up too."
Guy A was very happy at first, but when he saw Xie Qinghe casually pointing to a pile of inkstones and ink ingots, he felt a little uneasy.
Paper, no matter how expensive it is, is priceless, and gold thread is also expensive.Ink ingots are precious, and there are thousands of taels of inkstones... all wrapped up, this business is a bit scary, isn't it?Guy A hurriedly said: "Honorable guest, wait a moment, I will invite the shopkeeper to serve you tea!"
"No need, I'm leaving now." Xie Qinghe took out a few golden tickets from his sleeve (actually space), "Let's have a test."
The guy didn't dare to take over, and smiled apologetically, "The shopkeeper is here."
For such a large amount of business, it doesn't matter if it's a real money transaction. If you buy a few gold tickets, if it's fake, the guy can't afford it.Xie Qinghe thought of this and nodded: "Alright."
Regardless of whether the shopkeeper came or not, Xie Qinghe was in a very good mood, the Hanmo Hall in Fuchuan was simply a shop specially opened for him.
Due to the limited productivity, it is very difficult to get satisfactory things these days. Either the family is rich and can have their own workshop, which is basically limited by the level of the craftsman.Simply want to buy, that is, what others sell, you buy what, the choice is very limited.Similar to I have an idea, you go and make it for me. Only the royal family and nobles can do this perfectly-the imperial court specially supports craftsmen.
Now that Xie Qinghe walked into Fu Chuan's shop and clicked casually with his eyes closed, there was absolutely nothing wrong.All the things he likes.
When the shopkeeper hurriedly came out to treat the guests, Xie Qinghe had already picked out several boxes of pens, both soft and hard, especially the small regular script pens in the shop, which were elegant and beautiful, which won Xie Qinghe's favor.
Guys A and B are busy packing things, while the shopkeeper is serving tea and talking.
Xie Qinghe smiled and said, "I'm not a local, I'm just passing by." There's no need to maintain the relationship, and I won't buy it again in the future.
Xie Qinghe went shopping wildly, bringing nearly 2000 taels of big business to Hanmotang.
A passing traveler suddenly brings in a big deal and pays for it with a golden ticket, which looks like a big scam.The shopkeeper cautiously checked the golden ticket handed over by Xie Qinghe, but he couldn't make up his mind, so he specially invited the shopkeeper of the Four Seas Bank to take care of it, and finally the business was completed.
The shopkeeper of Hanmotang was very sorry for the time delay due to the ticket checking. He offered tea and snacks and apologized again and again.
Xie Qinghe was thinking about how to throw all these things into the space, when a guy from the Universal Bank rushed in: "Master Lu! Go back and have a look! Those people from Daoantang are here again!"
Shopkeeper Lu of Four Seas Bank frowned, while shopkeeper Yu of Hanmotang asked, "Do you want to bring a buddy?"
Shopkeeper Lu shook his head and said, "That group of people are all Lianjiazi. It's no use for us guys to bring them. Old Yu, send someone to Xianju Inn to see if Lord Qi from Hanshan is still there? If not, If he didn’t leave, invite him to sit at the Four Seas Bank.”
"I'll go in person!" Shopkeeper Yu turned around and apologized to Xie Qinghe, "Forgive me, sir, I'm rude, there is something urgent in the shop..."
Xie Qinghe and him were separated by a door, and he heard the cause and effect clearly, and said: "I don't know what is urgent? I may be able to help."
Shopkeeper Yu hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head with his hands clasped in his fists: "Thank you for your help. This matter is complicated, so it's not good to bother you."
The two shopkeepers left in a hurry, Xie Qinghe watched the two guys pack things for him.
Xie Qinghe had to look at everything before sealing it up, and put them all where Xie Qinghe could see them.Especially for the expensive inkstone, Xie Qinghe had to confirm it again and again before putting it into the brocade box.All these things add up, and there must be half a car.
Guy A asked: "Where is your honored guest staying? Can I send you a small one? There is a carriage in the store, and it's quite comfortable to sit in."
Xie Qinghe shook his head and said: "That's not in a hurry. I'll bring a car to pick it up later."
The money has been paid, and the things are placed in the store first, which means that the store is very trustworthy.Buddy A made a promise: "I've collected it for you."
Xie Qinghe drank the last sip of tea, and took a mouthful of moist bean cakes, thinking, the pastries in your store must be made according to my favorite taste, do you expect me to visit Anyang City one day, and come here again sit down?Drink tea and have a snack?
When he walked out of Hanmo Hall, he couldn't help laughing again.Am I here to sit?Also had tea and snacks.
The beloved object of an elder in the host family.
Xie Qinghe felt that the tea seemed to be sweeter, could it be that the well water nearby is good?
Xie Qinghe, who was in a good mood, strolled briskly back to the Four Seas Bank, and first incorporated the spirituality of the three shops outside into the upper talisman sword under the lintel of the Four Seas Bank. Mountain array protection.
After the range is circled, it has to be activated.
Xie Qinghe chanted the mantra lightly, pouring spirituality into it, and a ray of divine light overflowed from the upper talisman sword, and then disappeared.
"Ouch!" There was a sudden exclamation in Qianzhuang's reception room.
Shopkeeper Lu watched helplessly as the big man who came to find fault fell to the ground, and there was a terrifying sound of fractures in his ears.
Everyone in the room was stunned.
Pi Jing is not a rotten bastard on the street, he is the third hall master of Dao'an Hall, and he is in charge of more than 100 Dao Shang brothers in Anyang City.Bringing thirty brothers to the Four Seas Bank today is to negotiate a big deal with the Four Seas Bank——
In the past, Dao'antang didn't dare to provoke the Four Seas Bank because behind the Four Seas Bank stood the Hanjiang Sword Sect.
Now that there are rumors in the world that Fu Chuan can't protect himself, and the boss behind Dao'antang has already said that he can "do business" with the Four Seas Bank, that's why Pi Jing came in aggressively to negotiate with him.
It all went well at first.
The Four Seas Bank is full of dutiful people, and there are no guards and thugs.
——I didn’t need it in the first place.Among the snitches and bandits in the rivers and lakes, who would dare to provoke the young master Fu of the Hanjiang Sword Sect?
Therefore, when Pi Jing brought people in, the guys were all trembling and did not dare to resist at all, and the shopkeeper was also very polite and did not speak harsh words back to him.It's just that I don't see Huang He's heart is not dead, and I have been refusing to agree to do the business with Daoantang about paying protection fees.
Who would have known... While they were having a cordial and friendly discussion, Pi Jing fell to the ground...
The leg was broken.
Shopkeeper Lu's first reaction was, Oops, I've been blackmailed!
"I am four feet away from you, and you are surrounded by three feet from your Dao'an Hall, so it has nothing to do with us!" Shopkeeper Lu said.
The thugs of Dao'an Hall didn't know why the third hall master wrestled, but instinctively retorted: "Even if you are not with our third hall master, can you get away with it? Could it be that your place is not good in geomantic omen? The floor is too slippery? Say Maybe it was your fellows who cursed secretly, causing our third hall master to fall!"
Pi Jing's legs hurt like hell, and he was so angry at being beat up by his own family: "Shut up! Are you still working as a gangster on the street?!"
The thug was scolded once, muttered in his mouth, suddenly choked on his own saliva, coughed a few times, turned around to fetch the tea beside him, and wanted to press it.Who knows that what is on the bank of the world is red date tea.Swallowing the jujube in one breath, it stuck in his throat, he couldn't swallow it and couldn't spit it out, his face was flushed from holding back, and he kept patting his chest: "cough cough... woo woo... huh..."
Shopkeeper Lu was dumbfounded: "Hurry up, he's choking, take a picture of him, don't let anyone die!"
A few thugs from Dao'antang hurriedly slapped his vest, and someone opened his mouth, trying to get the red dates out of his throat.The clerk of the Four Seas Bank was not idle either, he ran to the kitchen and brought out a pair of chopsticks, but before handing them over, there was another scream in the chaos——
Shopkeeper Lu was covered in cold sweat and goosebumps, and he had to step forward and ask, "What's wrong?!"
A thug ran out with blood on his hands, cursing as he ran, "Guo Erlang, you bastard mallet with a knife under your ribs and you don't have a sheath! My god, your mother, the second uncle deserves you to suffocate my hand..." It turned out that he was slapping the suffocating thug on the back, and was stabbed by the suffocating thug's naked knife in the confusion.
"I can't take it out soon... Oh, bring the chopsticks!" The thug who was pinching Guo Erlang's mouth reached out to the waiter.
The clerk glanced at shopkeeper Lu: "Shopkeeper, I, this is..."
Pass these chopsticks in, and if there is any accident, the Four Seas Bank will be even more unclean.
Shopkeeper Lu only hesitated for a second: "Give it to him! It's important to save lives."
At this moment, a stern voice stopped: "Don't move."
Pi Jing broke his leg and couldn't stand up, so he slapped the floor angrily: "You dare to see death without saving me, I bring brothers to burn your poor bank!"
Shopkeeper Lu has already relaxed, and even the nervous guys nearby seem to have found their backbone, and stand aside with chopsticks.Not long after, two figures passed the window and entered the door from the corridor.A young Taoist priest in a blue Taoist robe with a sword hanging from his shoulder is in front, and shopkeeper Yu is behind.
Shopkeeper Lu came forward to say hello: "Master Qi is merciful. It's great that you are still in Anyang City."
This young Taoist is none other than Qi Xinran, an outer disciple of the Hanjiang Sword Sect.Regardless of the angry Pi Jing, he went straight to the crowd surrounding Guo Erlang, lifted Guo Erlang out, and slapped him on the vest.Guo Erlang spat out the red dates in his throat, and took a big breath.
Qi Xinran turned around to look at Pi Jing, and said with a sneer, "I came to Anyang City to prevent someone from becoming a monster. Ansheng hasn't moved for a few days, and I thought the people in this place had some brains... You are also lucky, and you are in the middle of it." The gun is on."
Looking at his clothes, Pi Jing immediately recognized him as a member of the Hanjiang Sword Sect, and felt a little guilty: "I... came to save money."
Qi Xinran snorted coldly: "If you didn't have any malice, would you be able to break your leg here?"
He has already recognized that this place is protected by talisman swords, and he doesn't bother to tell this wave of people.Pi Jing only broke his leg, but not his neck, which proves that Pi Jing's intention of coming here is not murderous.On the contrary, Guo Erlang, who was almost choked to death, probably really wanted to kill people in the Four Seas Bank.
"Get out soon?" Qi Xinran pointed at the door.
Pi Jing didn't dare to be arrogant in front of Qi Xinran, and quickly gestured for the thugs to take him away.
This group of thugs from Dao'antang came in arrogance and left in a panic, and the encounters in the middle were so ridiculous that the guys from the Universal Bank were amazed.Shopkeeper Lu wanted to hold a banquet for Qi Xinran and Shopkeeper Yu, Qi Xinran asked, "But Junior Brother Fu is here?"
Shopkeeper Lu was at a loss: "My boss never came."
"That's right. I'm afraid it's inconvenient for him to come forward now." Qi Xinran expressed his understanding, "Now that this matter has been resolved, I don't have to stay in Anyang City any longer. There are complicated affairs at the mountain gate, so I will go back first."
11 years ago, Qi Xinran was the best among the outer disciples. At this time, he had already been promoted to the elite in charge of the first room, so he really didn't have time to play.
After the Zuo brothers brought Xiong Chuchen's head to Zizhu Villa, the news immediately spread throughout the martial arts world.
Chen Yiwei heard that his junior brother had killed nearly [-] thousand riders in Luoma City, so he immediately picked the elite disciples who were close to Fu Chuan from the outer sect, and went to places with Fu Chuan's industries to secretly protect them.Qi Xinran was assigned to Anyang City and had been there for almost ten days.
Shopkeeper Lu didn't understand what happened: "Master Qi, this is... what's going on?"
Qi Xinran took him around the Four Seas Bank, and said: "This area has been classified as the territory of the Hanjiang Sword Sect. Because it is only ordinary people who come to pick quarrels and make trouble, there will be no big disturbances." It was nothing more than breaking a leg and choking on water. If the maliciousness in his chest was stronger, he would probably break his neck and die on the spot."
It was fine if he didn't explain, but after explaining, shopkeeper Lu became even more confused.This is obviously Anyang City, how did it become the boundary of the Hanjiang Sword Sect?
Qi Xinran smiled and said: "The shopkeeper only needs to know that Junior Brother Fu has already made arrangements, so there is no need to be afraid of someone coming to find fault. If the maliciousness is too great, and the talisman sword cannot counteract it, the senior brothers in the inner sect in the mountain will also know. Feiyuan can rush to help in half a day."
Shopkeeper Lu nodded like a ignorant child, and couldn't help asking: "Master Qi means, is our boss here?"
"When I came to see it a few days ago, there was no talisman sword protecting this place. It must have been here recently." Qi Xinran said.
Shopkeeper Lu wanted to stay with Qi Xinran for a banquet, but Qi Xinran only said that he would rush back to Hanshan, so the two shopkeepers brought Qi Xinran to the door with a large group of staff.While saying goodbye to each other, Qi Xinran suddenly saw a familiar figure, thought he had misread, and wiped his eyes.
Shopkeeper Yu also saw Xie Qinghe who was sitting at the opposite tea stall, and couldn't help but sighed, "He's a warm-hearted person. I said I didn't need his help, so I followed. Old Lu, I'll go say hello."
Qi Xinran had already landed in front of the tea stand, turned sideways to look at Xie Qinghe's face.
Xie Qinghe's beard was sticky and wrinkled, he was so far from his handsome and handsome appearance that Qi Xinran didn't dare to recognize him for a moment.
Shopkeeper Yu also came over at this moment: "The respected guest has a heart."
Xie Qinghe got up to talk to him, and said with a smile, "It's fine. I'll have a cup of tea, and I'm leaving now."
Shopkeeper Yu said some words of thanks again, and wanted to introduce Xie Qinghe to Qi Xinran, but felt that he didn't have that much affection.Master Qi is an elite disciple of the Hanjiang Sword Sect, how can ordinary people rise above him?I had no choice but to exchange polite greetings with Xie Qinghe and leave regretfully.
Qi Xinran has already recognized Xie Qinghe's voice, the senior brother's appearance has changed, but his voice and tone of speech have not changed from before.
He was about to bow his knees to salute, Xie Qinghe put a teacup by his side and asked him: "Have you brought Feiyuan?"
"Bring it." Qi Xinran carefully sat down beside him, only touching half of his buttocks, and there was still a trace of excitement in his tone, "Eldest brother, you have not been in the mountains all these years, and you have not come back with a letter. The juniors miss you very much." You. Are you...how are you?"
Xie Qinghe added tea for him, and gave him a tea egg: "Thank you for your concern, I am in good health."
Hearing that Xie Qinghe said that he was in good health, Qi Xinran was so excited that his eyes were a little red, and he whispered: "Your health is good, the juniors can rest assured. You came down from Dengtian Pavilion that day..." He wanted to say that Xie Qinghe was dying when he came down , and the sect leader had to carry Feixian Caolu back in person, which frightened many people. Thinking of what happened that day, they suddenly felt that maybe they shouldn't mention ascending to Tiange.
Xie Qinghe smiled slightly: "Please remember. I am very good, you see, I can eat, drink, run and walk."
"Over the years, the head of the sect has devoted himself to cultivating Junior Brother Fu..." Qi Xinran spoke more cautiously, "You were injured so badly at that time. Many senior brothers were very sad and thought that you had suffered something unbearable. Now that you have returned safely, All the rumours will stop."
Qi Xinran got to the point.
Xie Qinghe has already understood the turbulent undercurrent.
In order to support the authority of Fu Chuan and train Fu Chuan to become the head disciple, Shangguan Shiyi acquiesced to the rumor that "Xie Qinghe is dead".
After all, how can a sect have two master disciples?Xie Qinghe would beat Fu Chuan who hadn't grown up no matter how he looked at it. Only when Xie Qinghe "died" could the inner and outer disciples of the Hanjiang Sword Sect follow Fu Chuan and surround him with peace of mind.
Qi Xinran was sent to Anyang City by Chen Yiwei to protect Fu Chuan's property, so he must be a relatively core disciple of Fu Chuan's lineage.
However, as soon as he saw Xie Qinghe, he immediately turned against him, secretly raised some points to Xie Qinghe and surrendered.
"Don't reveal my news for the time being." Xie Qinghe didn't think about fighting for anything with the junior brother. He gave everything the junior brother had, so why did he want to snatch it back? "I rescued two people on the road, and you took them back to resettle them for me. You don't have to go up the mountain, just resettle them in the town, and you don't have to worry too much about how to make a living."
Qi Xin nodded repeatedly: "Yes."
What Xie Qinghe wanted most was the flying kite brought by Qi Xinran: "Give me your flying kite too. If I'm afraid it won't be easy to explain, I'll write you a letter—who is in charge of Fei Yuanliao now?" Junior brother?"
"Brother Chen Yiwei is in charge of Feiyuanliao." Qi Xinran said.
Xie Qinghe nodded, and suddenly asked: "Chen Yiwei is younger than you, you respectfully call him Senior Brother. Why do you call him Junior Brother Fu?"
Qi Xinran was so questioned that she was about to sweat.Why?Because Chen Yiwei has been in charge of general affairs for many years and is Qi Xinran's immediate boss.Because Fu Chuan was too young when he went up the mountain, and he never cared about outside affairs.If the power is not in the hands of Fu Chuan, what is the use of a false name?
"Yes... the disciple is frivolous." Qi Xinran stood up with cold sweat dripping down his forehead.
"Fu Chuan is the head disciple I entrusted to Master and my designated successor. You are practicing and doing things in the outer sect, and you have to put your mind in the right place. If there is any thought of belittling the head disciple leaking out, Han Shan will never again There is a place for you to stand on." Xie Qinghe said.
This warning was too harsh, Qi Xinran was flustered, and knelt down: "Disciple dare not!"
Xie Qinghe calmed down just now, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "I know your heart is toward me. Then trust my vision and help my little junior brother, my designated successor. Junior brother Qi."
The slap hurt, Qi Xinran was full of apprehension, and was rubbed by Xie Qinghe again, and she almost burst into tears: "Yes, this disciple knows. I will not dare to disappoint the elder brother."
Xie Qinghe helped him up again, and the two of them ate tea eggs and meat pies at the tea stand before returning to Xianju Inn.
Xiu Niang and her two children were placed here, and Qi Xinran also stayed here.Xie Qinghe first introduced Qi Xinran to Xiuniang.
Xiuniang was terrified at first, thinking that she had met a strong man who abducted women and children, but now she saw Qi Xinran was also wearing a Taoist robe, with a fairy-like demeanor, but she calmed down—so this old man is really a Taoist priest?Qi Xinran explained that she would take her and the child to settle down in the town at the foot of Hanshan Mountain. As a woman, she didn't have any opinions, and Xie Qinghe cut off her way back to the village, so she had no objections.
Afterwards, Xie Qinghe and Qi Xinran went to fetch the flying kite that he had parked on the cliff outside the city, and took the pen, ink, paper and inkstone bought by Hanmotang in a carriage, and put the flying kite and the bought things into the space before putting the carriage into the space. Gave it to Qi Xinran: "You buy another horse to harness the carriage, and I will ride 'Master' away."
Qi Xinran was reluctant to part: "Eldest senior brother, are you leaving now?"
Xie Qinghe handed him the letter to Chen Yiwei and said, "Young brother is still waiting for me."
Only then did Qi Xinran realize that senior brother was with Fu Chuan, and he clicked his tongue.No wonder the elder brother reprimanded me, he really raised the younger brother as an apprentice!There has been no news of the senior brother for so many years, and just after the junior brother had an accident, the senior brother came back out of the rivers and lakes.
Xie Qinghe patted him on the head and said, "Know something."
If it weren't for his confidant, he would never be so intimate!Qi Xinran was full of joy: "Yes, I got it!"
Xie Qinghe originally wanted to rest for one night before going to look for his junior brother. Thinking of the attack he encountered when he stayed overnight last night, he was worried that his junior brother would be hunted down again.After packing all kinds of food and water in the inn, they threw them into the space one by one. Xie Qinghe rode on "Master", and chased towards the north before the city gate was closed.
It was only when he rode the horse in the middle of the night that his bones were about to be broken, and he wanted to rest, that he suddenly remembered——
The little junior was on the road alone, he wanted to rest, so he lay down directly in the Patriarch's space, where would the pursuers get in?
On the contrary, he was with Fu Chuan. Fu Chuan had to guard the secret of the space, and he also had to guard the secret of the space. Both of them could only sleep in the open.What kind of crime is this?I asked for it!
Xie Qinghe, who was so exhausted, stopped rushing and took the uncle into the space together, and finally slept on a high bed with soft pillows all night.
The next morning, Xie Qinghe was still in a daze when he heard a girl crying.
girl?
cry?
……
Xie Qinghe shuddered and sat up from the bed.
Where is the girl from? !
He went out following the sound of crying, and found a little girl wearing tree bark and green leaves on her head, about four or five years old, standing on tiptoe with her chubby little feet, desperately pushing against the uncle's mouth.
The uncle uttered a loud cry, trying to get rid of the chubby girl's chubby hands, and wanted to nibble the wild flowers that grew next to the crooked-neck tree in the yard.
I don't know how long this wrestling has been going on, the little fat girl is almost out of strength, and her face is full of tears.
Xie Qinghe hurriedly stepped forward to grab the rein of the uncle, pulled it aside, and taught: "Don't bully the children. If you are naughty again, I will lock you back to the stable. You are not allowed to run, and you are only allowed to live in a single room."
The uncle sprayed Xie Qinghe's face, but still wanted to go to the crooked neck tree.
Xie Qinghe directly tied it to the edge of the fence, preventing it from moving.The uncle tried to escape from prison, but unfortunately, how strong is the fence that Xie Qinghe personally planted?Can't get rid of it at all.
"Who are you?" Xie Qinghe had never seen this little fat girl in the space.
He knew that the plants in the space might take form.There is a plant of everlasting grass in the space of Patriarch.However, the Changshengcao shape benefited from the space upgrade and was closed for three years. Where did this little girl come from?
The little chubby girl was bending over, pouted her buttocks, and tore down the accompanying wild flowers by the tree.
She didn't look as smart as Everlasting Grass, and she seemed to be walking unsteadily. Xie Qinghe was afraid that she would fall, so he reached out and hugged her.
"Elder brother, eat." The little fat girl offered the wild flowers to Xie Qinghe, with tears still remaining on her face.
Xie Qinghe did not underestimate this wild flower.The uncle desperately wanted to eat it, but the little fat girl desperately refused to let the uncle eat it. At first, he thought it was the little fat girl's body, or a little friend or something.Who knew that when she turned around, she was slapped by the little fat girl, and it was reserved for him.
Things that grow in their own space do not mean they are absolutely safe.This place can grow poisonous weeds.
"What is this?" Xie Qinghe asked.
The little fat girl patted her chest: "Eat it, it won't hurt."
Xie Qinghe thought for a while, and only pinched a very small petal, and put it on the tip of his tongue.In an instant, he felt a ray of pure true energy flowing into the profound pond, and the profound pond that had been dry for many years was slowly nourished.At the same time, the origin of wild flowers naturally appeared in his mind.
Passionate but not bitter flowers.
Often associated with the reincarnation tree, the flowers are affectionate, the stems and leaves are not bitter, and the essence of the spirit can be taken to prolong life.
extremely rare.
This thing is very beneficial to his illness at this time, eating it is of great benefit.Xie Qinghe unceremoniously took half of the flower, and gave the other half to the little fat girl: "You eat some too."
The little chubby girl said twice: "Eat it, it hurts."
Xie Qinghe then ate the half of the flower, and there was still a whole amorous flower left, which he put into a porcelain vase and put away.
The little chubby girl didn't understand, she pulled him to the side of the tree, pointed to the place that had been plucked, and said, "It will grow again. Three." Then she pointed to his porcelain vase with flowers, "Elder brother eats all of them. It doesn't hurt anymore."
Xie Qinghe could easily analyze the truth from the little chubby girl's words.
There were two flowers under the tree just now, but the little fat girl said that three flowers will grow out in the future.She also said that she couldn't eat the flower because it would hurt.
——It can be seen that the first flower that grew out has been eaten by the little fat girl.
"What's your name?" Xie Qinghe asked.
The little chubby girl was a little twitchy, and whispered, "Jiuzhuan Wenlan."
This is beyond Xie Qinghe's imagination.He originally thought that the little chubby girl, like the everlasting grass, was transformed by the plants growing in the space.The little chubby girl held Xie Qinghe's skirt, as if she was about to cry: "If you eat flowers, it's not Yin, it's flowers..."
That is to say, Jiuzhuan Wenlanyin was greedy for food, stole the accompanying flowers under the crooked-neck tree, and turned into a little fat girl after eating.
Because Jiuzhuan Wenlan itself has extremely powerful power, so its transformation is its own power, and it has not been hitched by the space upgrade. Xie Qinghe will have such an extra person when the space is not upgraded. Shapeshifting elves.
This made Xie Qinghe dumbfounded: "Then what should you do? Can you change back?"
The little chubby girl was about to cry: "Don't kill me."
"It won't hurt you. Do you want to change back?" Xie Qinghe communicated patiently.
The little chubby girl shook her head: "I... I will take care of the fairy grass for senior brother," and then glanced at Xie Qinghe's face, "Let me practice."
You can't even beat a horse, and you still guard the fairy grass for me?Xie Qinghe looked at the chubby little girl and thought of Fu Chuan's childhood.The little junior brother was also fat and thick at that time... He smiled and said: "Okay. Do you want to eat on weekdays?"
"Eat the wind and drink the dew." The little fat girl took a deep breath, "This place is very good."
"I found that you speak more quickly." Xie Qinghe said.
"Elder brother agrees with me, I can do it," the little fat girl thought for a while, "I am recognized by this world."
Xie Qinghe thought for a while, carried her into the house, pointed her out, and wanted to separate a room for her to live and practice.
Who knew that this little chubby girl didn't need it: "I will guard the jelly grass for senior brother."
Xie Qinghe was taken aback.
The little fat girl had already jumped out of his arms, thumped back under the tree, and sat down on her buttocks.
No need to ask Xie Qinghe, this fat girl has already closed her eyes and crossed her knees into meditation, the aura of heaven and earth is overflowing from all over her body, and she has started to practice.
Xie Qinghe found that where the Amorous Not Bitterweed was picked, the roots buried in the soil still had spiritual energy flowing through, and the little fat girl became the medium connecting the Amorous Not Bitterweed and the Crooked Neck Tree, and the three entered into a subtle relationship. And a harmonious cycle.If the little fat girl is allowed to practice in the house, she will definitely not be able to achieve this miraculous effect.
Xie Qing
Lord Long's horse was harnessed to the old man, basically relying on the old man's guidance, Xie Qinghe sat on the shaft of the chariot, made seals continuously to calm his mind, burned to death thousands of demons who took the opportunity to rebel in his body, and then gradually calmed down.
Just now when he released his cultivation base to help Fu Chuan kill the enemy, the demons in Xie Qinghe's body immediately rebelled.
Even if he suppressed it with one hand, the memory was still partly confused.He didn't want Fu Chuan to see his flaws, so he wanted to split up.
The carriage wobbled back to the official road and drove towards Anyang City. Xie Qinghe only had a third of consciousness to watch the road outside.It is difficult to build roads these years, and there is only one official road. The road to Anyang City rarely has a big fork, so there is no need to spend too much thought.
The remaining [-]% of Xie Qinghe's consciousness is used to separate his memories and emotions confused by demons.
Over the years, whenever he has spare time, he has been solving the evil troubles in his body.There are more than tens of millions of demons he has dealt with.Based on the one-to-two probability of becoming a demon, he has approached demons nearly a hundred times in his life.It's like a mortal reincarnated a hundred times.
After experiencing a lot, staying in other people's lives for too long, the boundary between reality and obsession will gradually blur, and even time will become blurred.
After Xie Qinghe frightened the demons in his body, he skillfully extracted his own memory and gradually calmed down.
At this time, the sky has gradually brightened, and Anyang City is close at hand.
Caravans and civilians who were already preparing to enter the city lined up at different gates. Everything was in order, and the city gate guards were also very calm.
From this point of view, the Anyang City Government should not know that there was a battle ten miles away last night, and the Dragon Scale Guard probably did not handle the matter through the local government.Otherwise, after so many days, the news of Luoma City should have spread to various places long ago, and the pictures of Fu Chuan's capture should have been posted.
Although Xie Qinghe has a carriage, he is not a merchant who sells goods. He was in the queue of common people entering the city, and was soon let go.
Anyang is an ancient city, and it has not undergone major changes in these years. Based on his early memories, Xie Qinghe successfully found the Xianju Inn in the south of the city, rented a room, put Xiuniang and the two children down, and put some on the cabinet. Silver is called to take care of Xiuniang's soup, medicine and diet.
After setting up Xiu Niang, he took some important items on the carriage back into the space, such as the secret book he was writing.
When I went out, I wanted to go directly to the Four Seas Bank, but then I realized that I hadn't slept all night and was focused on fighting and killing people. This heavily burdened body was exhausted.It happened that there was a carriage and horse dealership at the door. He wanted to find a sliding pole to sit in, but he only had a sedan chair with airtight surroundings - if he wanted to be wider and more comfortable, it would depend on his status and title, and ordinary people were not qualified to sit in it.
All right, a small sedan chair is also a sedan chair.Xie Qinghe paid half of the money first, and asked someone to carry it to the Four Seas Bank.
This airtight little sedan chair shook violently.Xie Qinghe sat in it staggering, so he could only comfort himself that it was better than walking or riding a horse.
He missed Yun Chao again.If Yun Chao is here, it's fine to take a car... Thinking of this, Xie Qinghe suddenly felt that he had made a fool of himself.Why hire a sedan chair?Hire a coachman, sit in your own carriage, and go slowly all the way, isn't it moist and comfortable? !
Fortunately, Anyang City is not very big, the sedan chair soon stopped at the entrance of the Four Seas Bank, and Xie Qinghe paid the money.
The bearer asked attentively, "Do you want to wait for the master?"
"No need." Xie Qinghe no longer wanted to sit in a sedan chair.
The Four Seas Bank is not yet open for business.At this time, the genius had just dawned, and the first to wake up in the city were the stalls and shops selling breakfast, and there were also some hawkers selling flowers and vegetables.Shops such as money stores and fabrics will not open so early.
Xie Qinghe doesn't need the bank to open the door either.
He glanced in front of the door, with his long sleeves turned slightly, and an upper rune sword was quickly nailed to the lintel of the Four Seas Bank.
Like the flying kite, the talisman swords are secret treasures handed down from the ancestors of the Hanjiang Sword Sect. There are five in total, which are connected to the Great Mountain Guard Formation of the Hanjiang Sword Sect.
Fu Chuan thought that using the talisman sword would disturb Shangguan Shiyi, but it was a child who was ignorant.The function of the talisman sword is to include the designated area as a part of the Hanjiang Sword Sect, and by default it will be within the protection area of the mountain guard formation.
Xie Qinghe nailed the upper talisman sword on the lintel to use as an eye, and then walked around the Four Seas Bank, fearing that the protection area would not be spacious enough, he even surrounded the antique shops and pawnshops near the Four Seas Bank.
Outsiders only saw Xie Qinghe strolling in the street with his hands behind his back, and didn't know that he was setting up a protective formation.
After finishing the work near the Four Seas Bank, Xie Qinghe still had to go to the Jinxiu Cloth Shop, Xiuzhenfang, and Hanmotang according to the address given by his younger brother to set it up one by one.These shops are all located in different squares in Anyang City, Xie Qinghe didn't want to hold back in the sedan chair anymore, and walked all the way.
After he circled Jinxiu Cloth Village and Xiuzhenfang into the range of Shangfu Sword, the entire Anyang City gradually woke up.
Hanmotang is already dismantling the door panels, ready to open for business.
Xie Qinghe walked around the door, and a clerk came out to say hello: "Master, would you like to see the pen, ink, paper and inkstone? The new spring knife paper."
Spring knife paper?Xie Qinghe was a little moved.
He has been living in seclusion in the dense forest all these years, so the purchase must be nearby.What good things can there be in town?
Occasionally, Yun Chao is asked to go to a big city farther away to pick up some good things. Yun Chao is really not a material for serving people.Go out with a list, good guy, everything is right, it’s all defective—if you don’t know how to pick, who will you cheat?
Anyway, we've already reached the door, so it's not bad to take care of the business of the younger brother.Xie Qinghe entered the door with this mentality.
The guy hurriedly called the guy B who was still eating inside to come out to remove the door panel, and he followed Xie Qinghe to wait on the servants, and took Xie Qinghe around his shop.Xie Qinghe's feeling is particularly strange: "Gushu flower paper, emerald paper... These things are not fashionable in the Northland, right? The practice is also uncommon. Your shop is fully stocked."
Staff A nodded and bowed his head and introduced: "So that the respected guests know that the flower paper here is the favorite of an elder of the master. The master said that since the elder loves it, it must be a good thing. The family workshop makes it every year." The previous batch was distributed to Hanmo Halls everywhere, and those who are destined can share it."
The beloved object of an elder.
Xie Qinghe put down the jasmine paper with a faint fragrance in his hand, and glanced at the complicated paper in front of him.
...Isn't it because I'm being self-indulgent?
Fu Chuan practiced in Hanshan Mountain, and Li Qian took care of all the properties under the mountain.
Fu Chuan certainly wouldn't know Xie Qinghe's pen and ink habits. Li Qian was different. He had seen Xie Qinghe's bewitched life, what kind of brushes Xie Qinghe likes to use, what kind of inks he likes to use, what arty flower papers he has made... Li Qian knows everything.
However, if you want to make the paper workshop produce so many complicated flower papers and extravagant paper every year, you must give Fu Chuan a nod.
Little junior brother's intentions, let's accept it with a smile.Xie Qinghe pointed to that row: "Wrap them up."
It's just paper.
Xie Qinghe took a step forward, and saw his favorite ink and inkstone again.
"Wrap it up too."
Guy A was very happy at first, but when he saw Xie Qinghe casually pointing to a pile of inkstones and ink ingots, he felt a little uneasy.
Paper, no matter how expensive it is, is priceless, and gold thread is also expensive.Ink ingots are precious, and there are thousands of taels of inkstones... all wrapped up, this business is a bit scary, isn't it?Guy A hurriedly said: "Honorable guest, wait a moment, I will invite the shopkeeper to serve you tea!"
"No need, I'm leaving now." Xie Qinghe took out a few golden tickets from his sleeve (actually space), "Let's have a test."
The guy didn't dare to take over, and smiled apologetically, "The shopkeeper is here."
For such a large amount of business, it doesn't matter if it's a real money transaction. If you buy a few gold tickets, if it's fake, the guy can't afford it.Xie Qinghe thought of this and nodded: "Alright."
Regardless of whether the shopkeeper came or not, Xie Qinghe was in a very good mood, the Hanmo Hall in Fuchuan was simply a shop specially opened for him.
Due to the limited productivity, it is very difficult to get satisfactory things these days. Either the family is rich and can have their own workshop, which is basically limited by the level of the craftsman.Simply want to buy, that is, what others sell, you buy what, the choice is very limited.Similar to I have an idea, you go and make it for me. Only the royal family and nobles can do this perfectly-the imperial court specially supports craftsmen.
Now that Xie Qinghe walked into Fu Chuan's shop and clicked casually with his eyes closed, there was absolutely nothing wrong.All the things he likes.
When the shopkeeper hurriedly came out to treat the guests, Xie Qinghe had already picked out several boxes of pens, both soft and hard, especially the small regular script pens in the shop, which were elegant and beautiful, which won Xie Qinghe's favor.
Guys A and B are busy packing things, while the shopkeeper is serving tea and talking.
Xie Qinghe smiled and said, "I'm not a local, I'm just passing by." There's no need to maintain the relationship, and I won't buy it again in the future.
Xie Qinghe went shopping wildly, bringing nearly 2000 taels of big business to Hanmotang.
A passing traveler suddenly brings in a big deal and pays for it with a golden ticket, which looks like a big scam.The shopkeeper cautiously checked the golden ticket handed over by Xie Qinghe, but he couldn't make up his mind, so he specially invited the shopkeeper of the Four Seas Bank to take care of it, and finally the business was completed.
The shopkeeper of Hanmotang was very sorry for the time delay due to the ticket checking. He offered tea and snacks and apologized again and again.
Xie Qinghe was thinking about how to throw all these things into the space, when a guy from the Universal Bank rushed in: "Master Lu! Go back and have a look! Those people from Daoantang are here again!"
Shopkeeper Lu of Four Seas Bank frowned, while shopkeeper Yu of Hanmotang asked, "Do you want to bring a buddy?"
Shopkeeper Lu shook his head and said, "That group of people are all Lianjiazi. It's no use for us guys to bring them. Old Yu, send someone to Xianju Inn to see if Lord Qi from Hanshan is still there? If not, If he didn’t leave, invite him to sit at the Four Seas Bank.”
"I'll go in person!" Shopkeeper Yu turned around and apologized to Xie Qinghe, "Forgive me, sir, I'm rude, there is something urgent in the shop..."
Xie Qinghe and him were separated by a door, and he heard the cause and effect clearly, and said: "I don't know what is urgent? I may be able to help."
Shopkeeper Yu hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head with his hands clasped in his fists: "Thank you for your help. This matter is complicated, so it's not good to bother you."
The two shopkeepers left in a hurry, Xie Qinghe watched the two guys pack things for him.
Xie Qinghe had to look at everything before sealing it up, and put them all where Xie Qinghe could see them.Especially for the expensive inkstone, Xie Qinghe had to confirm it again and again before putting it into the brocade box.All these things add up, and there must be half a car.
Guy A asked: "Where is your honored guest staying? Can I send you a small one? There is a carriage in the store, and it's quite comfortable to sit in."
Xie Qinghe shook his head and said: "That's not in a hurry. I'll bring a car to pick it up later."
The money has been paid, and the things are placed in the store first, which means that the store is very trustworthy.Buddy A made a promise: "I've collected it for you."
Xie Qinghe drank the last sip of tea, and took a mouthful of moist bean cakes, thinking, the pastries in your store must be made according to my favorite taste, do you expect me to visit Anyang City one day, and come here again sit down?Drink tea and have a snack?
When he walked out of Hanmo Hall, he couldn't help laughing again.Am I here to sit?Also had tea and snacks.
The beloved object of an elder in the host family.
Xie Qinghe felt that the tea seemed to be sweeter, could it be that the well water nearby is good?
Xie Qinghe, who was in a good mood, strolled briskly back to the Four Seas Bank, and first incorporated the spirituality of the three shops outside into the upper talisman sword under the lintel of the Four Seas Bank. Mountain array protection.
After the range is circled, it has to be activated.
Xie Qinghe chanted the mantra lightly, pouring spirituality into it, and a ray of divine light overflowed from the upper talisman sword, and then disappeared.
"Ouch!" There was a sudden exclamation in Qianzhuang's reception room.
Shopkeeper Lu watched helplessly as the big man who came to find fault fell to the ground, and there was a terrifying sound of fractures in his ears.
Everyone in the room was stunned.
Pi Jing is not a rotten bastard on the street, he is the third hall master of Dao'an Hall, and he is in charge of more than 100 Dao Shang brothers in Anyang City.Bringing thirty brothers to the Four Seas Bank today is to negotiate a big deal with the Four Seas Bank——
In the past, Dao'antang didn't dare to provoke the Four Seas Bank because behind the Four Seas Bank stood the Hanjiang Sword Sect.
Now that there are rumors in the world that Fu Chuan can't protect himself, and the boss behind Dao'antang has already said that he can "do business" with the Four Seas Bank, that's why Pi Jing came in aggressively to negotiate with him.
It all went well at first.
The Four Seas Bank is full of dutiful people, and there are no guards and thugs.
——I didn’t need it in the first place.Among the snitches and bandits in the rivers and lakes, who would dare to provoke the young master Fu of the Hanjiang Sword Sect?
Therefore, when Pi Jing brought people in, the guys were all trembling and did not dare to resist at all, and the shopkeeper was also very polite and did not speak harsh words back to him.It's just that I don't see Huang He's heart is not dead, and I have been refusing to agree to do the business with Daoantang about paying protection fees.
Who would have known... While they were having a cordial and friendly discussion, Pi Jing fell to the ground...
The leg was broken.
Shopkeeper Lu's first reaction was, Oops, I've been blackmailed!
"I am four feet away from you, and you are surrounded by three feet from your Dao'an Hall, so it has nothing to do with us!" Shopkeeper Lu said.
The thugs of Dao'an Hall didn't know why the third hall master wrestled, but instinctively retorted: "Even if you are not with our third hall master, can you get away with it? Could it be that your place is not good in geomantic omen? The floor is too slippery? Say Maybe it was your fellows who cursed secretly, causing our third hall master to fall!"
Pi Jing's legs hurt like hell, and he was so angry at being beat up by his own family: "Shut up! Are you still working as a gangster on the street?!"
The thug was scolded once, muttered in his mouth, suddenly choked on his own saliva, coughed a few times, turned around to fetch the tea beside him, and wanted to press it.Who knows that what is on the bank of the world is red date tea.Swallowing the jujube in one breath, it stuck in his throat, he couldn't swallow it and couldn't spit it out, his face was flushed from holding back, and he kept patting his chest: "cough cough... woo woo... huh..."
Shopkeeper Lu was dumbfounded: "Hurry up, he's choking, take a picture of him, don't let anyone die!"
A few thugs from Dao'antang hurriedly slapped his vest, and someone opened his mouth, trying to get the red dates out of his throat.The clerk of the Four Seas Bank was not idle either, he ran to the kitchen and brought out a pair of chopsticks, but before handing them over, there was another scream in the chaos——
Shopkeeper Lu was covered in cold sweat and goosebumps, and he had to step forward and ask, "What's wrong?!"
A thug ran out with blood on his hands, cursing as he ran, "Guo Erlang, you bastard mallet with a knife under your ribs and you don't have a sheath! My god, your mother, the second uncle deserves you to suffocate my hand..." It turned out that he was slapping the suffocating thug on the back, and was stabbed by the suffocating thug's naked knife in the confusion.
"I can't take it out soon... Oh, bring the chopsticks!" The thug who was pinching Guo Erlang's mouth reached out to the waiter.
The clerk glanced at shopkeeper Lu: "Shopkeeper, I, this is..."
Pass these chopsticks in, and if there is any accident, the Four Seas Bank will be even more unclean.
Shopkeeper Lu only hesitated for a second: "Give it to him! It's important to save lives."
At this moment, a stern voice stopped: "Don't move."
Pi Jing broke his leg and couldn't stand up, so he slapped the floor angrily: "You dare to see death without saving me, I bring brothers to burn your poor bank!"
Shopkeeper Lu has already relaxed, and even the nervous guys nearby seem to have found their backbone, and stand aside with chopsticks.Not long after, two figures passed the window and entered the door from the corridor.A young Taoist priest in a blue Taoist robe with a sword hanging from his shoulder is in front, and shopkeeper Yu is behind.
Shopkeeper Lu came forward to say hello: "Master Qi is merciful. It's great that you are still in Anyang City."
This young Taoist is none other than Qi Xinran, an outer disciple of the Hanjiang Sword Sect.Regardless of the angry Pi Jing, he went straight to the crowd surrounding Guo Erlang, lifted Guo Erlang out, and slapped him on the vest.Guo Erlang spat out the red dates in his throat, and took a big breath.
Qi Xinran turned around to look at Pi Jing, and said with a sneer, "I came to Anyang City to prevent someone from becoming a monster. Ansheng hasn't moved for a few days, and I thought the people in this place had some brains... You are also lucky, and you are in the middle of it." The gun is on."
Looking at his clothes, Pi Jing immediately recognized him as a member of the Hanjiang Sword Sect, and felt a little guilty: "I... came to save money."
Qi Xinran snorted coldly: "If you didn't have any malice, would you be able to break your leg here?"
He has already recognized that this place is protected by talisman swords, and he doesn't bother to tell this wave of people.Pi Jing only broke his leg, but not his neck, which proves that Pi Jing's intention of coming here is not murderous.On the contrary, Guo Erlang, who was almost choked to death, probably really wanted to kill people in the Four Seas Bank.
"Get out soon?" Qi Xinran pointed at the door.
Pi Jing didn't dare to be arrogant in front of Qi Xinran, and quickly gestured for the thugs to take him away.
This group of thugs from Dao'antang came in arrogance and left in a panic, and the encounters in the middle were so ridiculous that the guys from the Universal Bank were amazed.Shopkeeper Lu wanted to hold a banquet for Qi Xinran and Shopkeeper Yu, Qi Xinran asked, "But Junior Brother Fu is here?"
Shopkeeper Lu was at a loss: "My boss never came."
"That's right. I'm afraid it's inconvenient for him to come forward now." Qi Xinran expressed his understanding, "Now that this matter has been resolved, I don't have to stay in Anyang City any longer. There are complicated affairs at the mountain gate, so I will go back first."
11 years ago, Qi Xinran was the best among the outer disciples. At this time, he had already been promoted to the elite in charge of the first room, so he really didn't have time to play.
After the Zuo brothers brought Xiong Chuchen's head to Zizhu Villa, the news immediately spread throughout the martial arts world.
Chen Yiwei heard that his junior brother had killed nearly [-] thousand riders in Luoma City, so he immediately picked the elite disciples who were close to Fu Chuan from the outer sect, and went to places with Fu Chuan's industries to secretly protect them.Qi Xinran was assigned to Anyang City and had been there for almost ten days.
Shopkeeper Lu didn't understand what happened: "Master Qi, this is... what's going on?"
Qi Xinran took him around the Four Seas Bank, and said: "This area has been classified as the territory of the Hanjiang Sword Sect. Because it is only ordinary people who come to pick quarrels and make trouble, there will be no big disturbances." It was nothing more than breaking a leg and choking on water. If the maliciousness in his chest was stronger, he would probably break his neck and die on the spot."
It was fine if he didn't explain, but after explaining, shopkeeper Lu became even more confused.This is obviously Anyang City, how did it become the boundary of the Hanjiang Sword Sect?
Qi Xinran smiled and said: "The shopkeeper only needs to know that Junior Brother Fu has already made arrangements, so there is no need to be afraid of someone coming to find fault. If the maliciousness is too great, and the talisman sword cannot counteract it, the senior brothers in the inner sect in the mountain will also know. Feiyuan can rush to help in half a day."
Shopkeeper Lu nodded like a ignorant child, and couldn't help asking: "Master Qi means, is our boss here?"
"When I came to see it a few days ago, there was no talisman sword protecting this place. It must have been here recently." Qi Xinran said.
Shopkeeper Lu wanted to stay with Qi Xinran for a banquet, but Qi Xinran only said that he would rush back to Hanshan, so the two shopkeepers brought Qi Xinran to the door with a large group of staff.While saying goodbye to each other, Qi Xinran suddenly saw a familiar figure, thought he had misread, and wiped his eyes.
Shopkeeper Yu also saw Xie Qinghe who was sitting at the opposite tea stall, and couldn't help but sighed, "He's a warm-hearted person. I said I didn't need his help, so I followed. Old Lu, I'll go say hello."
Qi Xinran had already landed in front of the tea stand, turned sideways to look at Xie Qinghe's face.
Xie Qinghe's beard was sticky and wrinkled, he was so far from his handsome and handsome appearance that Qi Xinran didn't dare to recognize him for a moment.
Shopkeeper Yu also came over at this moment: "The respected guest has a heart."
Xie Qinghe got up to talk to him, and said with a smile, "It's fine. I'll have a cup of tea, and I'm leaving now."
Shopkeeper Yu said some words of thanks again, and wanted to introduce Xie Qinghe to Qi Xinran, but felt that he didn't have that much affection.Master Qi is an elite disciple of the Hanjiang Sword Sect, how can ordinary people rise above him?I had no choice but to exchange polite greetings with Xie Qinghe and leave regretfully.
Qi Xinran has already recognized Xie Qinghe's voice, the senior brother's appearance has changed, but his voice and tone of speech have not changed from before.
He was about to bow his knees to salute, Xie Qinghe put a teacup by his side and asked him: "Have you brought Feiyuan?"
"Bring it." Qi Xinran carefully sat down beside him, only touching half of his buttocks, and there was still a trace of excitement in his tone, "Eldest brother, you have not been in the mountains all these years, and you have not come back with a letter. The juniors miss you very much." You. Are you...how are you?"
Xie Qinghe added tea for him, and gave him a tea egg: "Thank you for your concern, I am in good health."
Hearing that Xie Qinghe said that he was in good health, Qi Xinran was so excited that his eyes were a little red, and he whispered: "Your health is good, the juniors can rest assured. You came down from Dengtian Pavilion that day..." He wanted to say that Xie Qinghe was dying when he came down , and the sect leader had to carry Feixian Caolu back in person, which frightened many people. Thinking of what happened that day, they suddenly felt that maybe they shouldn't mention ascending to Tiange.
Xie Qinghe smiled slightly: "Please remember. I am very good, you see, I can eat, drink, run and walk."
"Over the years, the head of the sect has devoted himself to cultivating Junior Brother Fu..." Qi Xinran spoke more cautiously, "You were injured so badly at that time. Many senior brothers were very sad and thought that you had suffered something unbearable. Now that you have returned safely, All the rumours will stop."
Qi Xinran got to the point.
Xie Qinghe has already understood the turbulent undercurrent.
In order to support the authority of Fu Chuan and train Fu Chuan to become the head disciple, Shangguan Shiyi acquiesced to the rumor that "Xie Qinghe is dead".
After all, how can a sect have two master disciples?Xie Qinghe would beat Fu Chuan who hadn't grown up no matter how he looked at it. Only when Xie Qinghe "died" could the inner and outer disciples of the Hanjiang Sword Sect follow Fu Chuan and surround him with peace of mind.
Qi Xinran was sent to Anyang City by Chen Yiwei to protect Fu Chuan's property, so he must be a relatively core disciple of Fu Chuan's lineage.
However, as soon as he saw Xie Qinghe, he immediately turned against him, secretly raised some points to Xie Qinghe and surrendered.
"Don't reveal my news for the time being." Xie Qinghe didn't think about fighting for anything with the junior brother. He gave everything the junior brother had, so why did he want to snatch it back? "I rescued two people on the road, and you took them back to resettle them for me. You don't have to go up the mountain, just resettle them in the town, and you don't have to worry too much about how to make a living."
Qi Xin nodded repeatedly: "Yes."
What Xie Qinghe wanted most was the flying kite brought by Qi Xinran: "Give me your flying kite too. If I'm afraid it won't be easy to explain, I'll write you a letter—who is in charge of Fei Yuanliao now?" Junior brother?"
"Brother Chen Yiwei is in charge of Feiyuanliao." Qi Xinran said.
Xie Qinghe nodded, and suddenly asked: "Chen Yiwei is younger than you, you respectfully call him Senior Brother. Why do you call him Junior Brother Fu?"
Qi Xinran was so questioned that she was about to sweat.Why?Because Chen Yiwei has been in charge of general affairs for many years and is Qi Xinran's immediate boss.Because Fu Chuan was too young when he went up the mountain, and he never cared about outside affairs.If the power is not in the hands of Fu Chuan, what is the use of a false name?
"Yes... the disciple is frivolous." Qi Xinran stood up with cold sweat dripping down his forehead.
"Fu Chuan is the head disciple I entrusted to Master and my designated successor. You are practicing and doing things in the outer sect, and you have to put your mind in the right place. If there is any thought of belittling the head disciple leaking out, Han Shan will never again There is a place for you to stand on." Xie Qinghe said.
This warning was too harsh, Qi Xinran was flustered, and knelt down: "Disciple dare not!"
Xie Qinghe calmed down just now, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "I know your heart is toward me. Then trust my vision and help my little junior brother, my designated successor. Junior brother Qi."
The slap hurt, Qi Xinran was full of apprehension, and was rubbed by Xie Qinghe again, and she almost burst into tears: "Yes, this disciple knows. I will not dare to disappoint the elder brother."
Xie Qinghe helped him up again, and the two of them ate tea eggs and meat pies at the tea stand before returning to Xianju Inn.
Xiu Niang and her two children were placed here, and Qi Xinran also stayed here.Xie Qinghe first introduced Qi Xinran to Xiuniang.
Xiuniang was terrified at first, thinking that she had met a strong man who abducted women and children, but now she saw Qi Xinran was also wearing a Taoist robe, with a fairy-like demeanor, but she calmed down—so this old man is really a Taoist priest?Qi Xinran explained that she would take her and the child to settle down in the town at the foot of Hanshan Mountain. As a woman, she didn't have any opinions, and Xie Qinghe cut off her way back to the village, so she had no objections.
Afterwards, Xie Qinghe and Qi Xinran went to fetch the flying kite that he had parked on the cliff outside the city, and took the pen, ink, paper and inkstone bought by Hanmotang in a carriage, and put the flying kite and the bought things into the space before putting the carriage into the space. Gave it to Qi Xinran: "You buy another horse to harness the carriage, and I will ride 'Master' away."
Qi Xinran was reluctant to part: "Eldest senior brother, are you leaving now?"
Xie Qinghe handed him the letter to Chen Yiwei and said, "Young brother is still waiting for me."
Only then did Qi Xinran realize that senior brother was with Fu Chuan, and he clicked his tongue.No wonder the elder brother reprimanded me, he really raised the younger brother as an apprentice!There has been no news of the senior brother for so many years, and just after the junior brother had an accident, the senior brother came back out of the rivers and lakes.
Xie Qinghe patted him on the head and said, "Know something."
If it weren't for his confidant, he would never be so intimate!Qi Xinran was full of joy: "Yes, I got it!"
Xie Qinghe originally wanted to rest for one night before going to look for his junior brother. Thinking of the attack he encountered when he stayed overnight last night, he was worried that his junior brother would be hunted down again.After packing all kinds of food and water in the inn, they threw them into the space one by one. Xie Qinghe rode on "Master", and chased towards the north before the city gate was closed.
It was only when he rode the horse in the middle of the night that his bones were about to be broken, and he wanted to rest, that he suddenly remembered——
The little junior was on the road alone, he wanted to rest, so he lay down directly in the Patriarch's space, where would the pursuers get in?
On the contrary, he was with Fu Chuan. Fu Chuan had to guard the secret of the space, and he also had to guard the secret of the space. Both of them could only sleep in the open.What kind of crime is this?I asked for it!
Xie Qinghe, who was so exhausted, stopped rushing and took the uncle into the space together, and finally slept on a high bed with soft pillows all night.
The next morning, Xie Qinghe was still in a daze when he heard a girl crying.
girl?
cry?
……
Xie Qinghe shuddered and sat up from the bed.
Where is the girl from? !
He went out following the sound of crying, and found a little girl wearing tree bark and green leaves on her head, about four or five years old, standing on tiptoe with her chubby little feet, desperately pushing against the uncle's mouth.
The uncle uttered a loud cry, trying to get rid of the chubby girl's chubby hands, and wanted to nibble the wild flowers that grew next to the crooked-neck tree in the yard.
I don't know how long this wrestling has been going on, the little fat girl is almost out of strength, and her face is full of tears.
Xie Qinghe hurriedly stepped forward to grab the rein of the uncle, pulled it aside, and taught: "Don't bully the children. If you are naughty again, I will lock you back to the stable. You are not allowed to run, and you are only allowed to live in a single room."
The uncle sprayed Xie Qinghe's face, but still wanted to go to the crooked neck tree.
Xie Qinghe directly tied it to the edge of the fence, preventing it from moving.The uncle tried to escape from prison, but unfortunately, how strong is the fence that Xie Qinghe personally planted?Can't get rid of it at all.
"Who are you?" Xie Qinghe had never seen this little fat girl in the space.
He knew that the plants in the space might take form.There is a plant of everlasting grass in the space of Patriarch.However, the Changshengcao shape benefited from the space upgrade and was closed for three years. Where did this little girl come from?
The little chubby girl was bending over, pouted her buttocks, and tore down the accompanying wild flowers by the tree.
She didn't look as smart as Everlasting Grass, and she seemed to be walking unsteadily. Xie Qinghe was afraid that she would fall, so he reached out and hugged her.
"Elder brother, eat." The little fat girl offered the wild flowers to Xie Qinghe, with tears still remaining on her face.
Xie Qinghe did not underestimate this wild flower.The uncle desperately wanted to eat it, but the little fat girl desperately refused to let the uncle eat it. At first, he thought it was the little fat girl's body, or a little friend or something.Who knew that when she turned around, she was slapped by the little fat girl, and it was reserved for him.
Things that grow in their own space do not mean they are absolutely safe.This place can grow poisonous weeds.
"What is this?" Xie Qinghe asked.
The little fat girl patted her chest: "Eat it, it won't hurt."
Xie Qinghe thought for a while, and only pinched a very small petal, and put it on the tip of his tongue.In an instant, he felt a ray of pure true energy flowing into the profound pond, and the profound pond that had been dry for many years was slowly nourished.At the same time, the origin of wild flowers naturally appeared in his mind.
Passionate but not bitter flowers.
Often associated with the reincarnation tree, the flowers are affectionate, the stems and leaves are not bitter, and the essence of the spirit can be taken to prolong life.
extremely rare.
This thing is very beneficial to his illness at this time, eating it is of great benefit.Xie Qinghe unceremoniously took half of the flower, and gave the other half to the little fat girl: "You eat some too."
The little chubby girl said twice: "Eat it, it hurts."
Xie Qinghe then ate the half of the flower, and there was still a whole amorous flower left, which he put into a porcelain vase and put away.
The little chubby girl didn't understand, she pulled him to the side of the tree, pointed to the place that had been plucked, and said, "It will grow again. Three." Then she pointed to his porcelain vase with flowers, "Elder brother eats all of them. It doesn't hurt anymore."
Xie Qinghe could easily analyze the truth from the little chubby girl's words.
There were two flowers under the tree just now, but the little fat girl said that three flowers will grow out in the future.She also said that she couldn't eat the flower because it would hurt.
——It can be seen that the first flower that grew out has been eaten by the little fat girl.
"What's your name?" Xie Qinghe asked.
The little chubby girl was a little twitchy, and whispered, "Jiuzhuan Wenlan."
This is beyond Xie Qinghe's imagination.He originally thought that the little chubby girl, like the everlasting grass, was transformed by the plants growing in the space.The little chubby girl held Xie Qinghe's skirt, as if she was about to cry: "If you eat flowers, it's not Yin, it's flowers..."
That is to say, Jiuzhuan Wenlanyin was greedy for food, stole the accompanying flowers under the crooked-neck tree, and turned into a little fat girl after eating.
Because Jiuzhuan Wenlan itself has extremely powerful power, so its transformation is its own power, and it has not been hitched by the space upgrade. Xie Qinghe will have such an extra person when the space is not upgraded. Shapeshifting elves.
This made Xie Qinghe dumbfounded: "Then what should you do? Can you change back?"
The little chubby girl was about to cry: "Don't kill me."
"It won't hurt you. Do you want to change back?" Xie Qinghe communicated patiently.
The little chubby girl shook her head: "I... I will take care of the fairy grass for senior brother," and then glanced at Xie Qinghe's face, "Let me practice."
You can't even beat a horse, and you still guard the fairy grass for me?Xie Qinghe looked at the chubby little girl and thought of Fu Chuan's childhood.The little junior brother was also fat and thick at that time... He smiled and said: "Okay. Do you want to eat on weekdays?"
"Eat the wind and drink the dew." The little fat girl took a deep breath, "This place is very good."
"I found that you speak more quickly." Xie Qinghe said.
"Elder brother agrees with me, I can do it," the little fat girl thought for a while, "I am recognized by this world."
Xie Qinghe thought for a while, carried her into the house, pointed her out, and wanted to separate a room for her to live and practice.
Who knew that this little chubby girl didn't need it: "I will guard the jelly grass for senior brother."
Xie Qinghe was taken aback.
The little fat girl had already jumped out of his arms, thumped back under the tree, and sat down on her buttocks.
No need to ask Xie Qinghe, this fat girl has already closed her eyes and crossed her knees into meditation, the aura of heaven and earth is overflowing from all over her body, and she has started to practice.
Xie Qinghe found that where the Amorous Not Bitterweed was picked, the roots buried in the soil still had spiritual energy flowing through, and the little fat girl became the medium connecting the Amorous Not Bitterweed and the Crooked Neck Tree, and the three entered into a subtle relationship. And a harmonious cycle.If the little fat girl is allowed to practice in the house, she will definitely not be able to achieve this miraculous effect.
