In the corridor on the second floor, Gongsun Linglong raised a cattail leaf fan and was looking down at the activities in the front hall.
But she didn't stop him. Instead, she chose to watch the whole scene and get a brief understanding of the cultivation of these three people.
"A four-star foundation-building expert can be killed instantly. That girl is really strong, and her cultivation is too deep to be seen. Poor other monks, the sect has only five places this year, and she has to reserve one in advance.
The purple-clothed girl next to her is proficient in medical techniques, but her cultivation level is only two-star foundation building, which is very mediocre. Even if she signs up, it is just a top-up."
Gongsun Linglong turned her attention to Chen Feng and murmured to herself: "But this guy is even more extraordinary. He can easily pierce the soft gold armor with one sword. I'm afraid only the Golden Core cultivator can do this.
Of course, there is another situation, which is the sword in his hand. But being able to hold such an extremely sharp sword is not just a matter of strength of cultivation. There is no telling which big family he is the heir to.
Come to the sect to learn from your master."
Gongsun Linglong had only heard of the tattooed man's gold silk armor, and it was said that it could block eighteen kinds of weapons such as swords, guns, swords and halberds.
Unless you have advanced cultivation, you cannot penetrate it.
"Madam boss, what should we do? The dead man was the nephew of Shangshu Dongyuan. Do we need to arrest the man and two women?"
"It's your fault for causing trouble in my inn. Dig a hole and bury it. Then tell Dongyuan Shangshu that he died suddenly during the selection process."
Gongsun Linglong became interested in Chen Feng and Shuang Yi, hoping to see their performance in the sect selection competition.
She left the stairs and slowly walked towards Chen Feng, "When a person dies, the wing on the second floor becomes vacant. The girl in your arms is poisoned. Take her upstairs to rest."
"Then thank the boss lady!"
"Thank you for what? There is no free lunch in the world." Gongsun Linglong blocked the way and stretched out his hand in front of Chen Feng, "Upgrade to the suite and add two hundred coppers."
"Fuck, why don't you go grab the money? I think yours is the only black shop on this street!"
"Since we have no money, let her sleep on the floor. The cold wind and toxins at night may cause her to die in the middle of the night."
"You're cruel!" Chen Feng took out his wallet from his arms and threw it to her, "A total of two thousand copper coins, accommodation and meals."
"For the sake of your generosity, I will not take this money in vain, so I will tell you some gossip. The sect selection will be held in three days, so make preparations early. There is still hope.
Promoted."
Gongsun Linglong said casually while counting the coins.
"You are just the proprietress of the inn, why should I trust you? According to the usual practice in previous years, the recruitment meeting of Wanjian Xianmen will be held in one month. How could it be brought forward for no reason?"
"The tsunami hit early this year. The sect leader and elders will go to Beihai to provide disaster relief. It is necessary to recruit new members one month in advance."
Gongsun Linglong stuffed the money bag into her pocket, "I'm leaving my words here. Do you believe it or not? If you don't believe it, pull it down?"
After saying that, she stepped on her wooden clogs and walked towards the stairs.
"Hey, little brother, how can you talk to the boss lady like this?" someone reminded in a low voice.
"I've already paid. Do you think you need me to nod and kowtow three times before speaking?"
"You are still young and ignorant. Do you know the name of the sect master of Wanjian Clan?"
"Gongsun Baye!" Yin Zhishan replied quickly.
In the territory of the Snow Moon Empire, you may not know who the current emperor is? But if you say you don't know Gongsun Baye, it is equivalent to telling others that you are not from the Snow Kingdom.
"What's the name of our landlady? Gongsun Linglong, brother, you understand this time. Everyone is willing to pay a high price to stay in this inn just to get useful information from her."
"Both are named Gongsun, are they brother and sister?"
"What kind of brother and sister are they? They are father and daughter, but they are adopted. Our boss lady just dresses more maturely, but her real age is only twenty-eight."
"Oh, that's it!"
Chen Feng nodded thoughtfully, hugged Shuang Yi, and came to the wing on the second floor.
In the room, there was also a box left by the tattooed man, which was locked with several locks. Chen Feng pulled out the Redbud Knight sword and opened the lock. There was only a stack of papers inside.
"Oh, I thought there was some valuable treasure? It turns out there are only a few pieces of paper. It's really disappointing."
But when Chen Feng opened the piece of paper, his expression was stunned.
Because those pieces of paper drew exactly the design drawings of fire guns, whether single or multiple. Without the advanced weapons brought by Chen Feng, Snow Country would be about 800 years ahead of Monty based on these drawings.
War with cold weapons uses human sea tactics and large-scale battles, but the casualties are very small, but hot weapons are different. When Chen Feng conquered hundreds of tribes, the casualties he caused were dozens of times those in the cold weapon era.
"The times are developing too fast, which is not a good thing after all."
Chen Feng folded the drawings and burned them on a candle.
I would rather burn it than have this kind of weapon in the Snow Country. Since firecrackers can be made, can guns and cannons be far behind?
"What are you burning?"
Yin Zhishan helped Shuang Yi tuck herself into bed. She happened to see Chen Feng and asked why.
"Once the design of the firecracker is developed, it will become a meat grinder for conquest and killing, so it must be destroyed in advance."
After disposing of these, discard the wooden box in the corridor.
After dawn, Chen Feng planned to go to the sect to register, while Yin Zhishan stayed in the inn to take care of Shuang Yi.
The process was very simple and was completed without much effort. Chen Feng held the registration form in his arms and planned to return to the inn. After all, it would not be safe to leave two women there alone.
Passing through the woods along the way, they were blocked by men in black robes.
"I drove this road. If you want to pass on from now on, you can leave money to buy the road." The man in black robe cleared his throat and spoke in a hoarse and unclear voice on purpose.
"It's strange, I didn't see any bandits when I came here! Thieves who are 1.5 meters tall are really rare." Chen Feng subconsciously clenched the Bauhinia Knight Sword, "You don't need money, but you need your life."
With the other hand, he secretly pulled out the metal card.
"If you don't have money, you can use your sword to pay off your debt!"
The man in black robe looked at Chen Feng's sword with great interest. The scabbard was exquisitely carved, like a piece of pure white jade.
Suddenly, his expression condensed, and the hilt of the sword was actually inlaid with dragon patterns? That was a totem that could only be used by the royal family.
"If you want it, I'll give it to you." Chen Feng threw out the Bauhinia Knight Sword without saying a word.
When the man in black robe saw this, he subconsciously picked it up with both hands.
Bang!
The bullet went straight through the shoulder of the man in black robe. After he realized the danger, he had no choice but to abandon the Redbud Knight sword, leave the smoke and flee in haste.
"This man in black robe is so interesting! No wonder he is so short, he turns out to be a woman."
On the escape path of the man in black robe, a hollow shawl was left behind.
This style is very fashionable, and it is made in-house. Of course Chen Feng can recognize it.
After the old Xingtou tailor shop expanded its scale, in addition to producing stockings, it also produced matching skirts and shawls. This lost white gauze shawl came from the Yunhai Town Stockings Factory.
