The boundary of Qingshan Town.
There are twenty-three towns in Yunyang County. Although Qingshan Town is a town, it has a radius of one hundred miles, and there are more than ten villages, hills, ditches, nests and dais.
Yuanling Mountain is a village built on the mountain, and the Yuan family is the largest landowner in the village, because a few generations ago there was a county magistrate of the seventh grade, which can be regarded as a scholarly family.
The driver opened his mouth and kept chattering. Su Qinian got to know a lot about the scenery of Qingshan Town, and he also had a vague impression of some of the big names in this town.
When he arrived at the boundary, he thanked the old housekeeper again, and Su Qinian left alone.
Jiuligang.
This is a small hill in Qingshan Town, with hundreds of households and a population of more than 2,000.
As soon as he entered the boundary of Qingshan Town, Su Qinian saw the police patrolling Bu Zhen Si. Bu Zhen Si is a town yamen and the highest official of a town. It is an official name and his official residence is from the eighth rank.
Generally speaking, this is the provincial examination, that is, only after passing the state examination can the official positions be assessed and arranged by the imperial staff. Throughout the world, every three years in the 108 states within the empire, how many candidates are born and can be appointed.
, are all characters with outstanding martial arts skills and intelligence.
As Su Qinian walked along, he couldn't help but nod secretly. The territory of Qingshan Town looked calm. Although it was approaching evening and the atmosphere was a bit solemn, it could still be seen that the Secretary of Bu Town was working hard to govern this area. He was so energetic that he did not catch it.
How much residual evil spirit remains.
However, when he arrived at Jiuligang, Su Qinian raised his eyebrows. His mental strength had entered the second level of Kung Fu practice in the "Ecstasy Dafa". He was extremely sharp, with a radius of more than ten feet, and even the smallest changes could hardly escape his perception.
, now, he felt that the atmosphere in the post seemed not right. Some villagers looked worried and whispered to each other, instead of the usual lively chat and laughter of ordinary people.
"The Ling family? The Ling family is no longer here in Jiuligang."
"The land of the Ling family was also transferred to the in-laws. A hundred years ago, the eldest son of the Ling family opened up business routes and became successful, so they all moved to Yunyang County."
Su Qinian frowned, but he didn't expect to get such news when he stopped an old man passing by who was struggling.
Sure enough, time has changed, things have changed, and the owner of the 19 acres of private land belonging to him at Qingyang Peak in Jiuligang has even changed.
"The in-laws of the Ling family are..." Su Qinian asked.
The old man looked him up and down, frowned and said: "Young man, you ask so many questions about what you want to do, and you don't have to make any insinuations. I advise you to go back. Although the reward of two hundred taels is eye-catching, it's not like you.
A fledgling boy can handle it. In the past half month, many martial arts people have come, most of them are veterans of the martial arts in a county. Even the sixth and seventh levels of "Benma Jin" can't stop it. What do you think?
Are you stronger than them? "The Classic of Filial Piety" says, 'The hair and skin of the body are received by the parents.' Don't waste your life in vain, who will take care of them until they die in the future."
As the old man spoke, his gray beard stood up, and he leaned on the ground with his crutches. He looked like he hated iron and steel: "Go back! Go back! Young people have not succeeded in martial arts. It is too dangerous to walk outside. There are people like Wudang in our Shiyan Prefecture."
The main sect of the country is here. Although there are not many monsters lurking in the wilderness, and many monsters have been wiped out by Wudang disciples in the past. Ten months out of the twelve months in a year can be regarded as calm, but the wilderness is still full of dangers. How can young people do this?
You can’t recognize yourself so much! It’s not that you can be invincible if you have a sword. Why is it so easy to enter the world of martial arts? Being too arrogant and aiming too high will lead to death!”
The corner of Su Qinian's mouth twitched slightly. He didn't expect to meet an old master. But the old man was right. He has lived for such a long time and has seen so much of the world. I am afraid he has seen with his own eyes some youthful energy wasted in front of his eyes.
life.
After half a stick of incense, the old man let Su Qinian go. He continued to mutter, shook his head and walked away.
Next, Su Qinian noticed that there were indeed some people in the world who were wearing short hats or carrying swords, spears and whips. Some were tall or short, some had square faces, some had sharp mouths and monkey cheeks, or some had honest faces.
, but with such heroic spirit, some horses were led into the village with dusty weather, leaving behind steaming horse dung on the ground.
Without asking any questions, Su Qinian followed the direction of these people and soon passed by a solemn temple.
Three Crazy Temples!
A temple that worships not gods or Buddhas, but three crazy Taoists of Wudang generation.
Sacrifice to gods is custom-made within the territory of the Celestial Empire. Ordinary people are not allowed to build temples at will. Incense and sacrifice must be reported to the court by the prefecture and county and approved by the Ministry of Rites before the money can be allocated, or the local government can raise it by itself and choose a day to start the construction.
.
Sanfeng Temple is the largest temple in Shiyan Prefecture. The statues of Sanfeng Taoist have to be replaced in every dynasty when they succeed to the throne. Wudang has also attached great importance to this. Even in addition to the temples of Sanfeng Taoist in past dynasties, the peaks of Wudang,
There are also some first-line peak masters, top figures, who also have their own temples. On weekdays, the incense is flourishing, and they often send disciples down the mountain to relieve believers' worries, give instructions on foundation building skills, or distribute Wudang's self-made medicine.
"The old lady of the Hu family has been praying inside for a whole day. It's really hard for an octogenarian to spend a day doing incense."
"Although the Hu family is a wealthy family, they are also well-read in poetry and books. They have never been pressed for rent over the years, and they often help poor families in the village. How come they have encountered such difficulties?"
"I heard that the old lady's grandson has just turned three years old. This disease causes him to bite like a wild beast. He is extremely powerful and has sharp nails. Last time in the town, there was a master of the sixth level of "Benma Jin" who had better medical skills.
, he was thrown out in one fell swoop, his head was bruised and bleeding, and he was almost disemboweled."
The mental power captured all kinds of sounds, and Su Qinian's eyes flashed, it seemed that it was this family.
A reward of two hundred taels is offered. An ordinary family of three only spends one tael of snow silver per month. Two hundred taels is not a small amount. In a village like this, only a wealthy family like this can afford it.<
/p>
Sure enough, after walking around half of the village, Su Qinian saw a mansion with blue bricks and black tiles, and even brick carvings of fortune, wealth, longevity and happiness, a door with copper nails, vermilion paint, and a gilded plaque on it, which read "Hu Mansion"
Two big characters.
"Huh? It's true that I come from a scholarly family. These two characters are quite strong and powerful. They can't be written by copying copybooks."
Su Qinian nodded secretly. As the saying goes, words are like the person they are. Only with enough experience of the world and the background of poetry and books can such characters be written. The charm between the lines cannot be imitated.
At this time, there were worried servants in front of the gate of Hu Mansion, looking after a few big horses. They were not optimistic about the few Jianghu people who had just entered. Two days ago, the village chief personally went to Bu Zhensi and sent people there.
Wudang Mountain, but unfortunately it got lost on the road and was poisoned by a monster. Today Chenshi sent the police on the road again, and they still have to go through many layers of communication. No matter how smooth it is, it will take another two days before there is any news.
"Young Master Sun is such a clever boy. He killed two horses and three chickens in the past two days. He is no longer human."
"The master once suspected that he was suffering from canine plague, but Mr. Sun has never left the house, and there is no mastiff dog in the house. How could the canine plague be so powerful? No one can get close now. Some doctors are afraid of getting hurt.
I can’t see, hear or ask anything about it at all, which is really worrying.”
"Hey, you're here to accept the reward too?"
Seeing Su Qinian, the two young servants raised their eyebrows in surprise.
"Exactly." Su Qinian said calmly, not caring about the two people's reactions.
"Young men are really not afraid of tigers. I advise you not to go in. Two hundred taels is not a big deal and it is so easy to get it. Don't lose your life in vain." A servant then shook his head and said.
"It doesn't matter, it won't hurt me."
Su Qinian shook his head and stepped into the mansion. The two servants did not react at all.
"Hey, this young man is so quick. I didn't even have time to say anything before he went in. He's so reckless. You have to pay a price for becoming famous! Stupid!"
Another servant sighed. In the past two days, he had carried out several seriously injured Jianghu people. All of them were in their twenties. All of them had at least five levels of "Benma Jin" skills. Although they were not able to be used in the early years
Wudang took a fancy to him, and he was also the leader in several surrounding villages and towns.
Demonic spirit!
This was Su Qinian's only thought after he stepped into Hu's Mansion. (Updated at noon, please support with daily recommendation votes, and new book friends to collect. Sigh, this is an old slogan)
