Jade bone ice muscle

The world of comprehension is in chaos, but not all chaos.

The Yaozu has been constrained for many years, and there are very few blessed lands where they can cultivate, and they don't have much head-to-head strength, so it's just an atmosphere of embarrassment, but in reality it's a guerrilla warfare.

The guerrilla fires everywhere made the cultivation world chaotic and busy.

All in all, the Yaozu continued to block the various avenues while preserving their strength as much as possible, and there were not many casualties.

However, the Daomen's men and horses were scattered all over the place to snipe, but it took a lot of manpower and material resources, which meant that they were so devastated.

No matter how rotten his brain is, it won't be as bad as Shangxian Taiwei. He took the disciples of Tianji Palace for a trip on a flying armor. After flying for five days, he finally arrived at Qianhe City with a high profile.

On the coast of the West Sea, with outstanding people, Qianhe City, an important city near the sea, has a coastline that stretches for hundreds of miles. Across a bay, facing it is the Broken Moon Islands, known as the "Thousand Demon Country".

The island is full of demon cultivators, and even the extremely rare sharks live on some small islands. Thousands of small islands are scattered all over the place. Looking down from the clouds, it looks like a handful of suet jade beads sprinkled on a piece of blue glass. A waning moon, hence the name of the Broken Moon Islands.

Qianhe City is both a port and an important commercial city. The picturesque boats that line the coast are called Ming City. The opposite is the underground black market in Jintao City of the Broken Moon Islands. One is bright and the other is dark. The items sold include all the rare treasures in the cultivation world Alien treasure.

Even if it is a dirty deal that cannot be seen, the black market has everything.

Kongzhi watched from the ship's side: "Master, Boss Lan has vacated his private deck for us to use."

Yu Wuque wished he could stretch out half of his body to look at the freshness. Hearing the sound, he turned around and asked, "Boss Lan? Who is it? You're so generous."

"Lingbo, a fifty-mile painting boat in Qianhe City, is all his Lan Mingxi's property." Kong Zhi introduced, "Boss Lan is an old friend of the master, and he is hosting a banquet to welcome you tonight. Is the master going?"

"It's not an old friend, it's just that he's used to shipping goods through his hands." He Bugui said lightly, "Go, we're here in the name of purchasing, and there's still a lot to do for him, so naturally we have to go."

He Bugui opened the curtain and stepped out, his eyes squinted by the sunlight: "Have you decided where to live?"

Kong knew: "Boss Lan hopes that the master will live in his private house, so he specially cleaned it out, saying that the surroundings are quiet and well-guarded, and no one will disturb the master's quietness."

This old man is so diligent because he is afraid that someone will hit him up and hook up with the crane and never return, robbing him of his fortune.

"No more." Crane Bugui said, "Choose two of the largest painting boats for charter."

Kong Zhi didn’t understand why the cranes, who were always afraid of the bustle, would not return, why they suddenly wanted to squeeze into crowded places: “The bigger the boat, the closer it is to the downtown, master…”

"The more noisy the better, it's best to be under everyone's noses and mouths." Yu Wuque stood under the sun and stretched his waist, and smiled knowingly at Crane Bugui, "If we want the golden cicada to escape its shell, we have to do enough tricks. Arrange it."

The master and apprentice sang and played charades, but the puppet couldn't figure it out.

On the contrary, the tacit understanding of this mystery, and the tune of instigating people, are becoming more and more similar.

Kong Zhi pouted: "Then I will go to work, the master will leave it to Mr. Yu to take care of it, you can use some snacks!"

The flying armor mightily flew over Qianhe City, attracting the attention of many people. The flying armor that does not return to the crane has a unique shape, and one can tell at a glance who is the handicraft and can take root in Qianhe City. There are almost no people who do not know how to do business. Such business opportunities have been skipped over their heads, and they have been rushing to tell everyone in the first place.

As soon as the flying armor stopped, word spread in the city.

Immortal Taiwei came to Qianhe City, this year Qianhefang might have to auction another treasure with a shocking sky-high price.

Those who are well off and able to afford the price quickly send people to inquire about the treasures that Crane Bugui will sell this time. Those who cannot afford the price and want to see something new are to book the best seats in the auction venue. The price of the stalls also sit on the ground, and if you can’t get close, then the next best thing is to have three floors inside and three floors outside, and you just set up a night market battle in broad daylight.

I also heard that Shangxian Taiwei brought people here this time to make a big purchase. The things that can be sold to Tianji Palace must be the best things. Huafang, there is already a line outside waiting to hand in the post.

Seeing a vertical puppet carrying a lot of goods covered with cloth, the news spread immediately, and many gambling games were held in the gambling house, some betting on the price, some betting on the treasure, and some betting on the quantity of the goods.

In short, the entire Qianhe City was extremely sensational because of the arrival of the rich man.

At this time, the rich master and his disciples were nestled in the luxurious guest room, and they rummaged through messy things all over the floor.

"Isn't this pretty good?" Yu Wuque picked up a tripod-breaking incense burner, "It's a high-quality magic weapon, and it can be sold for a good price."

He Bugui said with disdain: "I don't like the incense in it, Yongle has mixed a lot of brain refreshing medicine, it smells pungent."

Oh, I see, it's not about your aesthetics. Yu Wuque picked up another bronze mirror, and He Bugui introduced it: "This one, the heart-removing mirror, can reflect people's good and evil, and there is nothing to hide."

It’s amazing, but how do you sell it?Yu Wuque took it aside, and politely refused: "There is no such thing as a good person in the world. Buying this mirror will embarrass myself and the market will be worrying."

He Bugui took out a box of shrunken bald puppets from the pile: "The training dummy for Wuliangzhai monk, and a set of eighteen arhats. I know their exercises, and I can't see them outside."

As he spoke, he had to put them out one by one. The puppets without connected power were palm-sized dolls, lined up in front of him, and He Bugui sat cross-legged at the back, like a young boy who only knows how to play with toys.

The key point is that this little dandy still has a smug expression on his face, and he is so cute that Yu Wuque is dizzy: "Master, this is not good, the eminent monk was beaten up and down as a training dummy, no one but you would dare to offend Wuliangzhai like this, you dare to sell it, others Dare to buy it?"

He pointed casually: "Why don't you sell weapons. This one, Xing Xing Kunwu Sword, sounds super powerful."

Yu Wuque picked up a few sword flowers, chic and unrestrained, but the boss didn't like it when the crane didn't return: "Why did I bring this here, don't sell it, I won't forge swords for others."

"That knife..."

"Put away all the knives, guns and sticks, Soraka! Did you bring over the armory?"

Kongzhi said innocently: "Master, you collected these yourself."

After making so many things, I don't know what I have collected.

Crane Bugui lay down on the couch: "I don't want to pick any more."

Craftsmen, the things they make are good for others, but they are not good for themselves. If you can’t get them out, Yu Wuque empathizes with him and cleans up patiently: "I will pick, Master will rest first, and Boss Lan will pick up the wind at night." , I have to find a way to deal with the old fox."

That guy Lan Mingxi is tactful and shrewd, he has both sides, he has been in the business world for so many years, and it is impossible for him to have such a huge industry as Qianhefang without any skills. During the special period when the Broken Moon Islands were locked up, he had to find a way to get there. He had to be seduced by extremely tempting interests, otherwise he would not have agreed based on favors alone.

He Bugui glanced at the brocade box on the bedside, the puppet inside was He Bugui's recent proud work.

He thought it over, if the lion surnamed Lan opened his mouth, he would choose one to gag him, and it would be easy to pay a sky-high price for one, and the luxuries he got would be enough for Lan Mingxi to live for the rest of his life.

Just trying to find a way to go to the island, he will definitely agree.

When the lanterns come on, the boats form a gorgeous seascape, rich businessmen gather here, restaurants and music halls are full of voices, and the busiest place is the Fengyue place, where women in brothels compete to attract customers on board and off boats, the sea breeze blows, and you can’t smell it at all. The water is fishy, ​​and it is full of soul-stirring fat and powder.

Crane Bugui was supported by Yu Wuque to get off the boat, drunk and angry, the fragrance filled the air, and Crane Bugui stood still: "Go to the city to sober up, it's too noisy here."

"Okay, buy another bowl of Yulu soup." Yu Wuque coaxed the child, "It's so sweet, don't be angry with that old thing."

He Bugui let out a breath of alcohol: "Yes."

The reception dinner didn't go well, I drank a lot of wine, and negotiated a lot of things, but they were all insignificant things, such as the number of auction items, time, venue, and Tianji Palace's purchase order, scheduling, and delivery issues.

This was not the purpose of their trip, He Bugui held back the whole meal, and did not mention the Broken Moon Islands in the last word.

There is no other reason. When it comes to the recent turmoil in the cultivation world, Lan Mingxi becomes evasive and ambiguous. The master and apprentice are neither deaf nor blind. This old fox is weird.

Asking again, if he hears the intention, it will be a bad thing, so I can only give up.

Therefore, the invalid wine game makes He Bugui very depressed, and he thinks things are simple.

The city was much quieter. Walking on the street, He Bugui was always thinking about things. Yu Wuque fed him the sweet soup one mouthful at a time. Seeing his blushing cheeks, he said with concern: "He clearly pours you, and you really take it easy." , Master, you can't be too straightforward when drinking with this kind of person."

He Bugui looked at him: "Do you always drink with people?"

Knowing so much, dare to teach him to hide alcohol?

"No, it's all taught by Tingfang." Yu Wuque said again, throwing the blame to his good brother, "You clearly despise him, drinking one glass after another, and stopping your apprentice from drinking."

"Wine is good wine. If we can't get things done, why don't I have a few more drinks?" He Bugui murmured, "It's just that this person's words are hidden, and the conversation is laborious and boring."

He Bugui turned his head: "You listened carefully and didn't say a word, but what do you think?"

Yu Wuque said bluntly: "Boss Lan is a mundane person, and the most important thing he cares about is his wealth and life. He can't let go of these two things. In the past, he flattered Master because what Master made could bring Qianhefang fame, fortune and authority. Today I see that he still does not dare to offend you on the surface, but behind the scenes he looks like he is alone, obviously he has great concerns."

Crane Bugui admired his insights and said with a smile, "If you see anything else, let's continue."

"Master represents wealth, and his way of taking care of himself can only show that he is concerned about his own life." Yu Wuque said, "Could it be that he was threatened by others, or he knew something important and didn't want to cause trouble for his upper body."

At the banquet, when Crane Bugui Fang mentioned that the people of the Yao clan were restless, Qianhefang's business might be affected, Lan Mingxi immediately hesitated, saying what kind of businessman, there is a stable business, and there is chaos. The way of chaos.

He acted like he didn't want to get involved in anything, just wanted to be a miser in safety, and even pretended to be crazy with wine and cried a bit. Seeing that Wei Nuo was so timid, he didn't say anything else when the crane didn't return.

Crane Bugui said: "Sell goods and purchase, leave it to Kong Zhi, and the rest have other arrangements."

Yu Wuque smiled: "Master wants to check Lan Mingxi?"

"Where has he been in the past year, and who has he had major transactions with, you have to check carefully." He Bugui said, "Not only him, but also relatives and clansmen, all transactions and human relations have to be checked."

Yu Wuque rubbed his chin: "Tu'er thinks that since we need to check, we should check thoroughly. Since this is a port, we will check all the manifests that have entered and departed from the port in the past year, especially those related to the Broken Moon Islands. Deliberately concealing, merchants can have tens of thousands of names, but the products are always those products, and black and white letters cannot be fake."

"Good idea." He Bugui boasted, and said, "You arrange someone to do it."

"Master, don't worry, leave this matter to me." Yu Wuque had an idea, "There is one more thing, I thought of an idea, a little exaggerated, but I may be able to find another way to find the door, but I have to borrow a lot of money from Master .”

"Oh? Let's hear it."

Yu Wuque leaned over and whispered for a while, He Bugui was quite surprised after hearing it: "Aren't you afraid that others will make irresponsible remarks about you?"

"What are you afraid of? They just say what they like, as long as the master knows who I am." Yu Wuque grinned and said, "Pick up something that is not so important, and it is obvious that you did not make it to sell it. I am anxious Looking for a way out urgently, Qianhefang dare not do this business, Master also said that Qianhefang is a bright market, and across the sea is a black market, you have turned a blind eye these years, knowing that Lan The boss sells things from the Floating Sky Palace on the black market a lot in private, and if he finds a way, even if it's just a possible way, he can find a way to get there."

Yu Wuque: "I don't believe it, they are all businessmen, and he, Lan Mingxi, has a way to go alone. Didn't everyone say that even people are sold in the black market, and there are not so many twists and turns over there? to pass the message on.”

This is indeed a method, but it is a bit weird, and it hurts a bit, and it hurts the reputation of his apprentice. He Bugui feels that this person can be beaten and scolded by himself, but others can't touch him. In order to find a way out He is unwilling to make such sacrifices.

Yu Wuque looked at him hesitating, and said seriously: "This is the fastest way I can think of, Master, to find the Goddess' lair as soon as possible, so as to avoid disasters, don't worry about these small details, I don't care."

"But what do I care about?" He Bugui said, "You will be pointed at the back and scolded."

"After that, you will praise me more." Yu Wuque said coolly, "I really don't care if others are others."

The lost reputation can be earned back from other places.

In front of Dayi, He Bugui also knew that this method was very good, so he could only agree, took out a jade wrench from his pocket, and put it on Yu Wuque: "Well, no matter whether this matter is successful or not, I will justify your name as a teacher. You take this thing away."

The jade finger that Crane Bugui gave didn't look like the jade he would pick, but there was a crane pattern floating on the finger, and there were traces of red mud. Yu Wuque asked, "What is this?"

Taiwei Shangxian said arrogantly: "The bank of the world, with this finger puller, you can withdraw it as you like. I don't know how much money you have saved, but..."

"Huh!"

"It's more than enough to buy those painting boats, you just spend it."

For the next few days, Shangxian stayed behind closed doors, and at most went to the deck to bask in the sun, as before, as before, but his new apprentice spent money like water in Qianhe City, causing a lot of criticism .

On the surface, this man only buys expensive ones regardless of the time. With the wealth of his master's family, he has surpassed the owner of the boat. It's this young man who never refuses anyone who comes, and is willing to buy it at any price. In fact, he is a rich but brainless fool.

People in the city said that the young master seemed to be out of his mind, but it was a pity that He Bugui accepted such a prodigal disciple.While making him a sweet pastry, he treats guests today and treats him tomorrow, Taiwei Shangxian is left alone in the sun on a painting boat, and the prodigal disciple eats delicious food and drinks spicy food so that he is not happy.

In private, there are more rumors that the young master is not only extravagant, but also has a desire to amass personal wealth. He has a batch of fine objects of the Floating Sky Palace in his hand and is eager to sell them. These objects will not appear in the auction house. Some are leftovers, and some are not sold by the Taiwei Shangxian. The young master wants to secretly find qualified and powerful buyers and sell a batch to save money to marry a wife.

If it hadn't been for half a month of nonsense, no one would believe such gossip. In addition, Shangxian Taiwei had suddenly accepted an apprentice before, and it was rumored that he had a good eye for Yu Wuque.

Now seeing him squandering money like this and ignoring it, it has confirmed the rumors that Taiwei Shangxian dotes on his apprentice.

Na Yu Wuque has a batch of rare goods in his hand, and his credibility has skyrocketed.

Not long after, someone really approached Yu Wuque, wanting to make a connection.

On this day, the unfilial man had not yet returned from acting outside, but Crane Bugui had almost settled the results of the investigation.

The blueprint of Qianhe City was found by someone, and all the secret defense points were set up. Crane Bugui has already sent people to station there. On the surface, it is a procurement point, but in fact, they are all equipped with elite disciples. Prepare for emergencies.

With the results of the investigation already out, he rubbed his temples and wrote a letter to Bai Yingchi.

"Guggy—"

There was a strange noise by the window, and the crane didn't look up and said, "It's all at the door, let's play again."

"Hush." ​​Yu Wuque opened the window stealthily, flipped through the window familiarly, entered the room and closed it quietly, and saw the master sitting at the table with his body curled up in thin pajamas, the bones of his back were clearly visible, He took off his warm cloak and wrapped the person into a rice dumpling. The tip of his nose touched the tip of his nose so close, he said: "No one has been nagging these days, and the master is suffering again. I will carry you back to the bed."

"Yu Wuque, I haven't hit you for fifteen days." He Bugui glared at him, "Is it itchy?"

"If you want to fight, fight again during the day, so that I can confirm my reputation as a villain." Yu Wuque put away his hippie smile and said seriously, "Master, I have a situation here."

"I have it too." He Bugui stretched out his hand with difficulty, and handed him the dried tea, then retracted into his warm cloak and said, "I'll tell you what you say first?"

"Just now I saw the spirit sparrow flying out, it seems that the matter is not trivial, Master let's talk about it first."

He Bugui took out a stack of papers. This is the context of investigation in a few days: "In the past year, the goods that Lan Mingxi and Jintao City have exchanged the most are here. Take a look."

Yu Wuque took it for a closer look, frowned and said, "There are a lot of materials and no finished products. Did he send these to Jintao City in previous years?"

"I'll give it away too, but it's multiplied by five times this year." He Bugui deliberately tested him, and circled the materials that had doubled, "There are too many of these."

"These are indispensable media for forging weapons, and there are a few more, which are not corroded by sea water, and are best used as ship armor bearings." Not broken, they are..."

"Weapons, armor, and large ships." He Bugui said in a deep voice, "They are arming their men and horses, and they are suspected of smuggling arms. The Broken Moon Islands are one of the fronts for Yaoxiu to sell to the outside world, and they buy them in large quantities. , and then transported by sea to various sea areas, the route is hidden."

"Armed troops?! No wonder!" Yu Wuque suddenly realized, "Master, what do you think the people who are looking for me want from me?"

"what?"

"Knowledge."

The author says:

Closed on weekends, see you next Monday!

I lost the manuscript today and recoded it. Fortunately, I caught up with it.
