"What do you, this kid, like about me?" The old fortune teller looked calm when he heard this. He had been around the world for a long time, so he knew that this guy must have something up his sleeve.
Even if he suffers this depressing loss, according to this boy's character and temperament, he will still have to take advantage of him in the future.
The old fortune teller also had his own plans in mind. The top priority right now was to accept Mo Jianqi as his apprentice. In this way, the Taoist inheritance was settled. Fortunately, he didn't want to argue with Wu Zhongxian too much.
Wu Zhongxian finally showed an expression of success, and then said with a smile: "I can't hide anything from you. I really have something to ask for. Look..."
You can't always deal with such a hidden power by force. After all, you don't know what the other person's background is. You have to leave some room for everything so that you can continue to get along and cooperate in the future.
Especially this old man with an unpredictable personality. Relying on his status as a junior, the old man would not take it seriously if he made little jokes. But if you use chicken feathers as a token of authority, you are doing something wrong.
"Hmph! You're such a naughty kid! When I first saw you, I knew you were full of bad intentions." The old fortune teller snorted coldly at first, and then said, "Don't say that I'm bullying you.
What do you like about me?" Bayi Chinese website
Wu Zhongxian was speechless for a while. Looking at the old man's appearance, calling him a beggar gang wouldn't be a disgrace to this old man. The only thing he had on his body was the hexagram flag. What could I possibly do with you?
But for the sake of the old man's face, he still had to put on a show. Wu Zhongxian pretended to be thinking, thought for a while and said: "Just now, my friend said that she has a sword in your hand. Can you see if you can hand it over?"
Give it to me, and if you give it to my friend, the debt between you and my friend will be cleared."
"You old man is so powerful, how can you be a person who goes back on your word?" Wu Zhongxian saw that the old man was hesitant and hurriedly put a hat on the old man.
The old fortune teller looked around Wu Zhongxian, then he smiled and said: "These tricks are all left over from me playing when I was young. They won't work here. If I didn't see that you are still useful now, I would just give you a kick."
I kicked you away."
"Don't blame me for not warning you, stay away from my apprentice!"
The old fortune-teller snorted in his heart and said: You want to borrow my things to show your holiness in front of others? Humph! If I hadn't been prepared, I would have fallen for you.
You have to keep this kid away from my disciple in the future!
"Don't say that I rode in your carriage for nothing." The old fortune teller took out a gong from the bag on his waist and threw it to Wu Zhongxian, then stepped into the carriage without looking back, leaving Wu Zhongxian alone and messy in the wind.
The streams in the mountains are trickling, and from time to time, birds jump on the branches and chirp. The lush jungles bloom alone on both sides of the path. Different from the scenery in the early winter of the capital, the flowers bloom in the warm spring, making it a prosperous scene.
At this time, it had been more than half a month since Wu Zhongxian left the capital. It was only because of the continuous replacement of horses by county and county officials along the way that he could enter the Minshan range in such a short time. Even though everyone worked hard along the way, they only relied on horse carriages.
The transportation capacity is already the limit.
In this process, the help of the Secret Intelligence Department was essential, which enabled the local officials along the road to cooperate. In the past half month, Wu Zhongxian had collected a lot of information about Minshan through the Secret Intelligence Department.
According to intelligence, Minshan is neither under the management of county officials nor under the direct control of the court, because the entire area of Minshan is deep in the mountains, surrounded by mountains, and sparsely populated.
Moreover, Wu Zhongxian also discovered something interesting. According to intelligence, this place was a fiefdom subordinate to the Zhou royal family in the pre-Qin period. After the Qin Dynasty annexed the other six kingdoms, the Zhou royal family was also destroyed and was submerged in the long river of history.
middle.
But now the bloodline of the Zhou royal family has not been completely cut off. The First Emperor of Qin moved all the bloodlines of the Zhou royal family and other royal families into the Minshan Mountains. With the isolation of the Minshan Mountains, they were allowed to fend for themselves in the barren mountains and gradually disappear.
In the vast mountains.
But even if times have changed, even the Great Qin has experienced three generations of monarchs. The elders of the Six Kingdoms still live here, but the number has long been different. Nowadays, these orphans can only survive in the world.
Because of this reason, there was a magical situation where this place did not belong to any force. Over time, this place became the first place for exiles, wanted criminals, and people escaping from corvee.
Contraband prohibited by the court circulates freely here. Slave trading and recruitment of dead soldiers are common here. As long as you have money, you can even get the mountain pattern treasure armor of the Tang Empire and the divine machine crossbow of the Ming Empire.
Killer organizations that work for money have their bases here, and spies from all forces are roaming here, not to mention bandits and bandits who can be seen everywhere.
In a word, there is no law here, and all rules are based on fists. As long as you put your fists firmly here, you can walk sideways.
"Then according to what you said, there are so many Jianghu sects here, no one can stand up?" Wu Zhongxian looked at Mo Jianqi, who was sitting opposite, and asked curiously.
According to Mo Jianqi's description, the Minshan realm is not only a paradise for lawless people, but also has many Jianghu sects. According to Wu Zhongxian's guess, in a situation like this, there should be a powerful force standing in front of the stage to take charge.
The overall situation is in line with the interests of all parties.
If a place does not have common regulations, it will be a piece of loose sand, and it will never develop to the scale it does in Minshan.
"Indeed, there is, but it is not a single sect, but a leader jointly elected by all the sects in Minshan to manage the overall affairs of Minshan." Mo Jianqi said softly, looking outside the carriage.
This is the first time I have been away from Minshan for such a long time. Now that I am back in Minshan, I always feel as if I have been away from a lifetime.
Wu Zhongxian nodded. This was pretty much what he was thinking. He had to say that this was indeed the best hiding place for King Chenliu's remnants. It would be difficult for the Qin court to put its hands into this place.
Even Wu Zhongxian has a headache in such a complicated situation, but he has taken the first step anyway, and it depends on people. Wu Zhongxian does not believe that those hawks and dogs will not miss the mark, especially after the latter heard the news that he was going to Minshan, he would definitely
