In the courtyard, there were no other three children, only Bi Qingquan and a energetic middle-aged man dressed as a Taoist priest sitting opposite each other. Top 23S.

"Congratulations to Brother Bi. With this Baimai Lingji Wine, Xiaoxiao girl will be able to take further steps in her martial arts!"
The middle-aged Taoist priest smiled and took a sip of tea, but his eyes were on the jade bottle on the stone table.
"Hey, it's rumored that that person has a close relationship with Prince Wu. I thought it was a rumor that was deliberately spread by this prince, so as to take advantage of the situation and protect himself. I didn't expect that he could even get the Baimai Lingji Wine. , it seems that the rumors may not all be false!”
Bi Qingquan sighed, remembering the scene when Wu Ming took out the jade bottle, his eyes looked disappointed.
"Haha, your gang is known for being well-informed, why don't you hear rumors that are groundless?"
The middle-aged Taoist priest smiled.
"Hmph, stop pouring **** soup on me! You, a mystical master, have always been useless and don't get up early. You are also a patrol angel in Guigu Valley. You want me to track down this guy's whereabouts at the cost of a favor. What are your plans?
Don't tell me that you want to recruit a disciple! But considering his relationship with that person and the fact that he is about to become a saint, you are not qualified!"
Bi Qingquan blew his beard and stared, angrily.
"What? I'm not qualified, so am I, Guigu, not qualified either?"
The old man Xuanji's expression did not change and he continued to drink tea lightly.
"What? Do you really plan to bring this son into the Guigu family? Don't forget, he is a military strategist and specializes in martial arts, and that person may not agree!"
Bi Qingquan was stunned.
Others don't know this person's identity and origins, but he knows it very well. They have known each other for hundreds of years, and they have already become irreversible.
I never expected that the other party would make such a shocking decision!
"So what about the military masters? I, Guigu, have produced few military masters in the past generations. Not to mention those two, what do you think of this son since he returned to the Song Dynasty?"
The old Xuanji Taoist said calmly.
"The Wu family started from a humble beginning. This son used his weak body to block the royal family and the evil emperor's plan. He was undefeated against Gao, Sun, and Cheng Zhiliu. The ruined Lotus Gate was supported by the people. It is not easy to support it to this day! Now even Baimai Ling It’s really not easy to be willing to give up wine in exchange for favors!”
Bi Qingquan was very familiar with Wu Ming's past. After he finished speaking, he looked at the other person in shock.
"Haha, what this boy says and does all coincides with the way that I, Guigu, run horizontally and horizontally. How can I not take advantage of such a talented and beautiful person?"
The old master Xuanji smiled lightly.
"A good bird chooses a tree to roost in, and a good minister chooses his master to serve! The holy way of Guigu is indeed extraordinary!"
Bi Qingquan took a deep breath and showed a complicated look in his eyes.
"Brother Bi, don't think too much. Whether this boy can become a disciple of my Guigu Zongheng requires more inspections. Otherwise, I, the patrolling angel, will not be asked to come forward!"
The old Taoist Xuanji took a sip of tea.
"In my opinion, Brother Dao, how is this boy?"
Bi Qingquan's eyes narrowed slightly, and the light appeared.
In his opinion, a person who can gain the respect of the Xuan Sheng Ancestor, and who is supported by his maternal ancestor who is about to become a Saint, is enough to attract the attention of the powerful Grand Master.
If you add another level of identity as a disciple of Guigu, the previously planned strategy will be doubled!
"I'm afraid, he has already guessed that your purpose of inviting you is not simple!"
The old Taoist Xuanji pondered for a while.
"It's not hard to guess. The old man is also an elder of Jiupao, a majestic grand master. If he meets a prince, he has to come forward in person. If he doesn't have any other intentions, no one will believe him!"
Bi Qingquan gave me a cold look and stared at the mystery with lightning eyes, as if to say, don't give me a bad look and tell the truth.
"I knew I couldn't hide it from you!"
The old Taoist Xuanji gave a wry smile, dipped some tea, and wrote two words on the table.
"Soldiers..."
Bi Qingquan was shocked and blurted out.
"Brother Bi, be careful what you say! If you tell the truth this time, you have violated the rules of the family. Don't tell it to your mouth!"
The old master Xuanji hurriedly said.
"Ahem, yes, yes, I lost my temper!"
Bi Qingquan coughed dryly, drank the tea in one gulp, as if to suppress his shock, took a deep breath and said, "Thank you, Brother Tao, for speaking out. It seems that those people in the capital are in big trouble!"
"This matter has not yet been settled, and no one knows what will happen in the end. I just watched the sky at night and once said that dragons and snakes rise from the ground!"
As for what to do, I must use Brother Bi's ability to avoid making mistakes!"
The old master of mystery said cautiously.
"Okay, I've written this down and will make preparations in advance! I owe you a favor!"
Bi Qingquan personally poured tea for him and thanked him.
"No, no, Brother Bi is serious. I still have something to do, so it's inconvenient to stay any longer. Say goodbye!"
The old Taoist Xuanji waved his hand, drank it all in one gulp, stood up and left.
Bi Qingquan did not hold back, and stopped for a long time, looking at the direction in which he left, with an uncertain look in his eyes, and murmured to himself: "The dragon and the snake are rising from the land, and murderous intent is coming from the sky! This is the rhythm that will bring chaos to the world! Since it comes from ghosts, monsters, and sages.
There must be no lies in your mouth!
However, this old Niubi is worthy of being a descendant of Zongheng. He had to check it out through me, which originally did not require a favor.
Everything he did was unpredictable, and in the end he made me feel a favor, so I could only believe half of what he said.
If that kid really becomes a disciple of Guigu, hehe, it will be really exciting!"
…
At the same time, Wu Ming, who seemed to have escaped unscathed but was actually worried, was on his way to his destination.
"This old beggar is really good. A bottle of holy wine was replaced by a bad brand!"
Wu Ming touched his chest and cursed secretly.
It has to be said that Bi Qingquan has extremely good eyesight. He just took a look at the cork and recognized the origin of the holy wine.
The holy wine was in front, so of course he would not give in. He gave him a token, saying that as long as he was in Dengzhou, the disciples of the Beggar Clan would help him if he saw this token.
Even if you go to other states and counties, even from different countries, they will still give you some face!
"Better than nothing! Elder Nine Bags' token is enough to bluff people!"
Muttering secretly, Wu Ming felt more and more irritable in his heart because he couldn't understand why the majestic grand master would personally meet him for a trivial matter!
Even if he has the support of his ancestors who are striving for sainthood, he may not be qualified!
After all, the battle for the holy way is unpredictable and dangerous, and a little carelessness will lead to catastrophe. Now, the horoscope has not yet been written!
The attitude of a powerful Grand Master coming forward is almost equivalent to that of a beggar gang!
But if it really comes to that, wouldn't it be true that all the dignitaries in the capital would have come to fawn over you long ago, and there would be no need to leave the capital as if they were running for their lives!
The more I think about it, the more something is wrong, but I can't find any clue. This feeling of irritability is driving me crazy!
"Forget it, it's useless to think too much. At least I know that the Beggar Clan has no ill intentions. They severely punished Feng Gu and revoked his qualifications to practice the "Wugou Sutra"! As for Luo Lianmen's response, Quan is farting!"
As the target got closer, Wu Ming took back his thoughts.
Bi Qingquan said that Feng Gu's revenge was a personal grudge and had nothing to do with Luolianmen, and he would not deliberately target it in the future!
But after suffering such a big loss, it was rumored that the Song Dynasty almost became a street rat. How could such hatred be reconciled with just one sentence?
Guangyuanzhai!
"This Jia Xiaopang is obviously his own shop, but he actually said he was a cooperating firm and sent me to Shaolin. He was clearly showing me his strength!"
When he saw the huge plaque in front of the business house, Wu Ming's irritability disappeared for the most part, and a fat, round face flashed in his mind.
Guangyuan Zhai in the capital was Jia Zhengjing's private property and one of the tests the Jia family put him through.
Being able to open a branch in an important town like Songyang City on his own shows the strength of Jia Zhengjing!
In view of the fact that he has suffered losses from him many times before, although he has made up for it, sending Wu Ming to Shaolin this time may not be without the intention of showing off his strength!
"Looking at it objectively, there are all kinds of cultural and martial arts treasures in the shop. The lobby is the place needed for body training and martial arts. Judging from your extraordinary demeanor, I think it must be in the hands of a master..."
Seeing Wu Ming coming to the door to watch, the doorman came forward to greet him with smiles on his face and endless compliments.
"Take me to see your shopkeeper!"
Wu Ming took out a token, shook it, and threw over a silver coin.
"It turns out that I am a distinguished guest. How dare I ask for your money!"
Menzi was surprised. He said he didn't dare, but he honestly put his hands in his arms and went straight to the back hall to welcome Wu Ming.
After being introduced to a middle-aged manager, the authenticity of the token was checked, and Wu Ming was immediately invited to the top!
"The prince has come a long way, so he must be tired. I will arrange a place to live now, and we can set off early tomorrow morning!"
The shopkeeper here is an old man in his sixties, who obviously received the message early and warmly entertained Wu Ming.
"That's it, we have shopkeeper Laosun!"
Wu Ming nodded in agreement.
…
There was no talk all night, and early the next morning, a guard named Liu Zhenhai from the trading company led the team to the inn outside the city!
The inns here have the same function as the inns in ancient China. They are places for traveling to and from official offices or for businessmen to stay.
The difference is that in addition to Jianma, there are also various trade treasure ships stored here!
Their size ranges from a hundred feet to a thousand feet, and they fly very fast. They are an important means of transportation across mountains, rivers and seas.
Due to the sinking of the Shenzhou continent and the great changes in the world, the land was widened countless times.
There are countless demons and monsters in the mountains and rivers, and even the warriors of the artistic conception and even the innately powerful have dangerous places that they cannot overcome.
Even in the hinterland of the human race, there are not a few places like this.
Therefore, traveling together and carrying merchant ships has become a fashionable way of travel!
However, due to its large size and lack of treasure level, it cannot be transformed as desired and can only be placed in the inn established by the imperial court.
As for whether it will be stolen, there is no need to worry at all.
Those who have the ability to rob it will not bother with this little thing. Even if it is robbed, each treasure ship will have a unique mark for easy tracking!
"It's not much different from a cruise ship, but it's probably not as fast as the Gu family's Yunzhou!"
When he saw the treasure ship that was hundreds of feet in size, Wu Ming secretly compared it with what he had seen before.
Naturally, such a huge treasure ship cannot only carry people, but also cargo.
Although there are storage bags, generally speaking, a bag with about ten feet of space is considered a medium-sized bag, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford.
For example, the bags Wu Ming got from several Yijing warriors were only about ten feet, and most of them were less than one foot.
Mountains of goods can only be transported by treasure ships!
Even if there are not many passengers at one time, there are still hundreds of people, and they all reserve their seats in advance!
After all kinds of merchants boarded the ship and made sure that their goods were loaded, the treasure ship of several hundred feet set off and flew away quickly!
ps: Mu Chen would like to wish everyone a happy new year. It’s the end of the year and there are a lot of things to do. I will resume two updates next week. I wish everyone all the best, good health and family happiness in the new year!
