"Brother Gu, don't get rid of me, I will follow you from now on!"
There was a follower around Gu Zheng, the kind that he couldn't even drive away. After knowing everything Gu Zheng and Hou Ping had gone through, Jin Yu was reluctant to leave, and just stayed by Gu Zheng's side.
Wherever Gu Zheng goes, he will go.
The son of a dignified military general no longer cared about carrying out his mission and just stuck to Gu Zheng's side.
However, his mission seems to have been completed. All this is because of Gu Zheng. Jin Yu still knows the importance and what the emergence of a saint in human beings means. Although he still can't believe that Gu Zheng is a saint. level.
But Hou Ping and the Lion King all told him clearly that all this was true.
He has asked his companions to send the news back to Dabaic City. He believes that the Dabaic Mansion will attach great importance to this news and will report it directly to the empire and eventually present it to His Majesty the Emperor.
If he goes back and finds out this information, his contribution will be enough to get him promoted and make a fortune.
But Jin Yu is not stupid. How can promotion and wealth be compared with the benefits brought by following the ancient struggle? Hou Ping is already at the heaven level even if you don't look at it. There is no heaven level in Dabai Mansion.
There is one person in the Bai family, but that person is in Kyoto Prefecture, not Dabai Prefecture.
At this time, Jin Yu still didn't know that Bai Yi, far away in Kyoto Prefecture, had eight heavenly ranks around him. All eight heavenly ranks were kicked away by Gu Zheng. If he knew this, he would probably be even crazier.
"Hou Ping, send him back to Dabai Mansion, and then you can chase him back!"
Unable to bear Jin Yu's entanglement and unable to deal harsh blows to him, Gu Zheng had no choice but to stun him first and then ask Hou Ping to send him back to Jin's Mansion in Dabai Mansion.
At this time, Gu Zheng had no interest in taking a rich man around. The reason why he took Hou Ping was because Hou Ping was alone, and he was redeemed because he went down the mountain to surrender.
With Hou Ping, there happens to be a lack of a helper around him. Let him be a helper or a servant. Who is Jin Yu? He is an official child who grew up with a golden key in his mouth. Let’s not talk about whether he can endure hardship. With this ancient status, Fighting will keep you away.
For Jin Yu, it was quite comfortable to get home after taking a nap.
Hou Ping nodded, grabbed Jin Yu and flew directly into the sky, and then quickly left Daxia Mansion. Gu Zheng also left. Hou Ping was not there, and the driver turned into a poodle. The poodle sat in front with his head shaking, and eight horses competed. When Hou Ping chased them away, he had to be honest. He would never dare to go west if he told them to go east, and he would never dare to take one step more than he said he would take two steps.
All the way to the southwest, even if it was a mountain road, the eight horses still ran very fast. In two days, they left the Suzaku Empire and entered the border of the Qinglong Empire. It took another five days for Gu Zheng to leave the Qinglong Empire again and enter the territory of the White Tiger Empire. .
The White Tiger Empire is located in the westernmost part of the Four Saints Continent. There are many mountains and lakes here, and the scenery is better than that of the Azure Dragon Empire and the Suzaku Empire.
In the White Tiger Empire, the journey of Gu Zheng went a little slower.
Qiushui Lake is located twenty miles outside Daegu Prefecture. Qiushui Lake is very large. Because it is very close to Daegu Prefecture, it is also diverted to the front of Daegu Prefecture. The water of Daegu Prefecture's moat comes from here.
Because it is close to the city, there are many people living next to Qiushui Lake. In addition to fishermen, there are also many restaurants run by city people. Every spring and autumn, wealthy children and literati in the city will go boating to Qiushui Lake.
For outings, things like flower boats were born on Qiushui Lake.
All in all, this is a place of romance.
On this day, Gu Zheng arrived here, and a local introduced him that the best inn was not in the city, but outside the city, and the best inn was not fixed but mobile.
Qiushui Inn is the best inn in Daegu. It’s not about the rooms, but the boats.
The most luxurious room is a ship. Everything in the inn is available on the ship, and there are also things on the ship that are not found in the inn. The level of luxury makes Gu Zheng stunned. It is indeed a place of romance, and there are even more sex items than other inns.
.
It's a pity that these things are not available in ancient times.
However, the environment on the ship was quite good, and Gu Zheng chartered the largest ship.
This ship was originally only used by high-ranking officials, and people without a certain status were not qualified to charter it. Gu Zheng didn't waste any time and just smashed a small piece of vitality stone down. The innkeeper immediately agreed.
That's just a small piece of vitality stone. Gu Zheng doesn't know how many small pieces of vitality stone there are. Anyway, there are a lot of them in the space bracelet, but just such a small piece of vitality stone can cut tens of thousands of vitality cards.
Tens of thousands of Yuanqi cards are enough to buy it, not to mention chartering a boat.
People are stupid and have a lot of money. This is the boss's definition for Gu Zheng, especially when he saw the RV pulled by Gu Zheng's eight horses, he was even more convinced.
It's a pity that this is the White Tiger Empire, not the Suzaku Empire. If it were the Suzaku Empire, no one would dare to think like this. After Gu Zheng entered the Qinglong Empire, the people from the Suzaku Empire no longer followed him. A strong man like Gu Zheng is free to go wherever he wants.
, Even the emperor of the Suzaku Empire did not dare to ask random questions.
As for the Qinglong Empire, after receiving the news from Jin Yu, they first did not believe it. The emperor also personally wrote a letter to the emperor of the Suzaku Empire, but the emperor of the Suzaku Empire only replied with one word, yes.
This made the Emperor of the Qinglong Empire, who didn't believe it at first, have to doubt, and then called Bai Yi, who was related to Gu Zheng, and the emperor realized that Bai Yi was hiding something from him and that there were eight Heavenly Orders around him.
At that moment, the emperor wanted to kill Bai Yi. He trusted Bai Yi so much, but Bai Yi actually kept it from him.
However, at this time, he obviously did not dare to kill Bai Yi. Apart from anything else, if the eight Heavenly Orders caused trouble in Kyoto Prefecture, no one would be able to guarantee his safety, so he could only grit his teeth and give up.
The emperor of the Qinglong Empire regretted it very much. Holy order, this is the holy order. Their empire has a holy order. Now it is better. He has gone to other empires. Gu Zheng went to the White Tiger Empire. In this regard, the Qinglong Empire and Suzaku
The empire knows it.
However, both parties had a tacit understanding and did not tell the White Tiger Empire this news. The people of the White Tiger Empire were still kept in the dark.
"Who dares to charter my young master's boat? Liu Quan, please take it back to me immediately and clean it thoroughly. I will use it for the party!"
Gu Zheng was floating leisurely on the boat. In the inn on the shore, a young man in bright clothes was showing off his temper to the innkeeper.
However, the innkeeper kept nodding his head and did not dare to object at all.
The young master in front of me is a member of the Huang family of Daegu Prefecture. The Huang family is not the lord of Daegu Prefecture, but is the family of the eldest wife’s wife and is also a wealthy and prominent family in the city.
Huang Qiu is the legitimate son of the Huang family.
In Daegu Prefecture, there are only a few people who dare to be named after Qiu. Every one of them is an existence that ordinary people cannot afford to offend.
"Quick, go get that boat back, go quickly!"
The shopkeeper wiped his sweat and kept giving instructions to his subordinates. It is true that his inn has a backstage, and the backstage is very strong. The backstage of their inn is another big family in Daegu Prefecture, the Liu family.
But the Liu family and the Huang family are already married, and Huang Qiu's aunt is the mistress of the Liu family. Do they dare not listen to what Huang Qiu says in this meeting?
"You guys, come here quickly and row the boat over!"
The waiter from the inn drove a small boat over. The big boat Gu Zheng chartered had six boatmen besides the boat. It was impossible for one person to sail such a big boat.
When these boatmen were on the boat, they all listened to Gu Zheng, but it was on the boat. At this time, someone called them, and they immediately rowed towards the boat.
Gu Zheng frowned. Hou Ping noticed Gu Zheng's expression and immediately walked up from above.
Above is the cabin, where they have been listening to music and watching the scenery. By the way, there are also opera singers on the boat. This life is really comfortable.
"What are you doing? Go back and don't move!"
As soon as Hou Ping reached the middle of the oar, he lowered his head and smiled and said to Hou Ping: "Sir, there are the guards of the inn over there. They called us. There must be something going on. Let's go over and take a look. If nothing happens, we will paddle back later!"
"No, we've chartered the boat now, so you don't have to listen to anyone else's words!"
Hou Ping knew Gu Zheng's temper and refused directly. He said that Gu Zheng had given so much money to the inn before, which made Hou Ping feel distressed. But when he thought of Gu Zheng's temper and the money in Gu Zheng's hand, he felt relieved.
"But the guard is summoned, we must go back!"
The boatman looked at the boat not far away and explained. Hou Ping ignored him and shouted directly to the boat over there: "We have chartered this boat. We haven't called you in seven days, so there is no need to come over."
Annoy us!"
Hou Ping's voice was so loud that it shook the ears of the guards on the boat over there. This was because Hou Ping only used a little strength. If he had used heaven-level power, his voice could have killed those guards.
When the guards heard this, they knew he was a master and immediately ran back in despair.
On the shore, Huang Qiu stared into the lake with wide eyes. He also heard Hou Ping's voice. He did not expect that in Daqiu Mansion and Qiushui Lake, he would meet someone more ruthless than himself.
"Who chartered the boat?"
Huang Qiu didn't think of asking who was on the boat until this moment. It wasn't that he had forgotten it before, but to him, it didn't matter who chartered the boat. He still had to give him the face here.
"Mr. Huang, the charterers are two foreigners, so that's their car!"
The innkeeper hurriedly explained and pointed to Mr. Huang's eight-horse cart, eight horses, and the lazy little mare behind.
The little mare was ignored by them. They all saw the eight horses and the luxurious car.
"Outlander?"
Huang Qiu's eyes seemed to light up, and the innkeeper nodded hurriedly.
"How much did they pay you to charter that boat?"
Huang Qiu seemed to have thought of something again, and asked again. The shopkeeper smiled bitterly, asked someone to take out the vitality stone, and whispered to Huang Qiu: "They didn't give me any money, they gave me the whole vitality stone!"
Vitality stone?
Huang Qiu's eyes lit up even more. This vitality stone can cut at least more than 40,000 yuan of energy cards. For more than 40,000 yuan of energy cards, it only covers a ship, and only for seven days?
Normally the price of the boat is only 500 Yuanqi cards per day at most. No wonder the store owner would give the boat to these two outsiders.
This is more than ten times the price, a fat sheep, a proper fat sheep.
"Didn't they take the vitality cards? They gave them the vitality stones directly?"
Huang Qiu asked again, and the shopkeeper nodded hurriedly. Huang Qiu's eyes were very bright now, and he seemed to have thought of something.
"Go and call my second uncle!"
Huang Qiu suddenly said to the people around him that Huang Qiu's second uncle, Huang Yao, was the number one master in Daegu Prefecture. Although he was not at the heaven level, he was the top among high-level warriors.
The reason is very simple, Huang Yao is a high-level martial artist and a high-level intermediate spiritual master.
Huang Qiu, a genius with both physical and mental skills, called such a person here. It is easy to imagine that his purpose was to keep an eye on the two outsiders on the ship.
The shopkeeper sighed but said nothing.
Don't leak wealth to others. If you leak it rashly, it will only bring disaster.
In fact, when Gu Zheng took out the Vitality Stone, he didn't think twice, but in the end he gave up. He was not the real owner of the shop, he was just responsible for running the business here, and his task was only to run the inn well.
Even if you rob someone else, the ultimate benefit will not be yours.
Moreover, once this kind of thing spreads, it will be bad for the reputation of the inn. A bad reputation will affect future business. The shopkeeper thought more. For the sake of reputation, he did not say more. If Gu Zheng and they successfully returned the boat just now,
When he comes back, he will secretly return the money and help them.
But they were so high-profile, and Huang Qiu asked again, so he could only tell the truth.
At this moment, he felt sorry for the two outsiders. No matter how powerful they were, they would definitely be doomed this time. They knew very well how powerful Huang Yao was. Huang Yao was not only the number one master in Daegu, but also the most capable in the entire White Tiger Empire.
The top strong man in the row.
Once he takes action, those two people will never be able to escape.
"Xiaoqiu, why are you so cautious and why did you ask me to come here specifically?"
Huang Yao came very quickly and went alone. In fact, what Huang Qiu wanted was him alone. He alone was enough. Huang Yao alone was more powerful than thousands of troops.
"Second uncle, I found two foreigners, rich foreigners!"
"There are a lot of rich foreigners. Is that why you want me to come?"
Huang Yao seemed a little unhappy. Huang Qiu hurriedly pulled him aside and said in a low voice: "I know, but they are different. They chartered the best ship here, but they didn't use the Vitality Card.
It’s the vitality stone, this is it!”
Huang Qiu had already asked for the vitality stones collected by the inn and showed them to Huang Yao.
"I wonder if they discovered some vitality stone mine, and then mined part of it and took it with them. They didn't even have time to cut it into vitality tablets, so they came here to enjoy it!"
Huang Qiu slowly expressed his guess. A piece of vitality stone was nothing, the Huang family also had it, but the vitality stone mine was different.
Vitality stones don't fall from the sky, they are mined from mines. The four empires all have their own Vitality Stone mines, and there are more than one.
And a mine vein can produce much more wealth than a few vitality stones.
"You mean, they discovered a new vitality stone condition that has no owner?"
Huang Yao was not stupid, and he immediately understood what Huang Qiu meant. Daegu Prefecture didn't even have a Yuanqi Stone Mine. If they were to discover it, they could join forces with Daegu Prefecture to mine it. Even if a part of it was given to Daegu Prefecture, the Huang family would still be able to eat it.
Fat.
"That's what I think, otherwise who would be so generous and pay the bill directly with the vitality stone, and pay the bill ten times higher!"
Huang Qiu nodded quickly, Yuanqi Stone Mine, if he really found a Yuanqi Stone Mine from these two outsiders, then he would have made great contributions to the family, and he would definitely be the heir of the family in the future.
He would be very happy now, very happy that he came to ask for the boat in person, otherwise he would not have discovered the secret.
"It's very luxurious. Just using the vitality stone means that he is sure that he will have many of this vitality stone. If he can have many vitality stones, and he comes here to enjoy them, that means he has made a fortune, so he doesn't care!"
Huang Yao kept nodding. The more he thought about it, the more he was right. Huang Qiu was right. These two foreigners were probably lucky enough to discover a vitality stone mine that no one knew about. They became rich overnight and then ran away here.
Come and enjoy.
Who told them that Daegu Mansion is a famous romantic place nearby? People who like to enjoy themselves come here.
"Also, I asked someone to call them just now, and one of them scolded the inn's guard away. He is very confident. He should have a certain level of strength, and may even be a high-level warrior!"
Huang Qiu expressed his speculation again. After all, Hou Ping's shout just now was clearly heard even by him on the shore, and it was deafening.
"What can a high-level warrior do? Let's go, Xiaoqiu, let's go there together!"
Huang Yao said nonchalantly, and Huang Qiu also smiled. Yes, what can a high-level warrior do? Huang Yao is a high-level warrior, and he is also a high-level spiritual master. Not only that, he is also a high-level spiritual master, practicing both Jingwu and Jingwu.
No matter how powerful the high-level warrior is, he will never be his opponent.
"Okay, second uncle!"
Huang Qiu agreed immediately. At this time, Gu Zheng, who was resting with his eyes closed on the boat, suddenly opened his eyes and showed a smile on his lips.
He had never met a dandy in either the Azure Dragon Empire or the Suzaku Empire, but unexpectedly he met one in the White Tiger Empire. His life experience was finally a little more complete. As a protagonist, he would never encounter a dandy or let him slap him in the face.
, is that still the protagonist?
It's depressing to always meet someone like Li Langlang.
"Hou Ping, someone will come soon. Don't show your heavenly power. Suppress your power to high-level warriors, and then use your immortal weapons to fight against the enemy!"
Gu Zheng suddenly said to Hou Ping, when the fun comes, you have to have fun.
Once Hou Ping shows his heaven-level power, he has nothing to do next. He has to give them some hope, make them think that he can defeat them, and then catch them in the end.
It's like a cat catching a mouse, that's what's interesting.
At this time, Huang Yao and Huang Qiu, the two uncles and nephews, did not know that they had become other people's mice. They were still excited about discovering the Yuanqi Stone Mine. If the Yuanqi Stone Mine was really discovered, the Huang family would definitely be able to improve again.
A cut.
With enough resources, Huang Yao may even break through and become a heaven-level powerhouse.
A small boat quickly headed towards Gu Zheng's big ship. No one was rowing the boat. With Huang Yao here, there was no need to make a bargain. The senior mentalist could make the boat move at a very fast speed with a clear direction.
