"I heard that there was trouble over there on North Street a few days ago. Someone was fighting on the Hexiang Tower. Many people were injured and at least three died! People from the government came here several times."
"Hexiang Restaurant? Is it the one that was famous for selling lotus-flavored meat?"
"That's it. It is said that many small gangs are looking for something called the Tianxuanlu. I don't know what it is that can attract so many people's attention."
"When hasn't this kind of thing happened in this city? Compared with this, Wu Guo has another master. A swordsman named Meng Yupeng set up a ring in the west of the city to challenge my great Yuan folk masters. There are people who have come up in the past few days.
Quite a few, but none of them won."
"Last time, there was Chen Gong, and there was also a guy named Floating Blood Sword. Why do these people from the Wu Kingdom come here one after another?"
In the south of Wei Fang City, on a teahouse.
While Wei He was drinking tea, he listened to the tea guests around him chatting about various trivial matters.
The previous affairs of the Song Shixiong brothers also became a topic of conversation for them after dinner.
However, this matter was quickly suppressed by other things. This Wei Fang City is a business focus, and there are a lot of people flowing in every moment, which naturally brings a lot of gossips and various rumors and stories.
When King Shixiong of Song Dynasty was drunk, if he could persist for a few days, he was already considered very powerful.
Wei He didn't take it seriously while eating his tea.
He is still considering the deal with Xia Linghua, the owner of Wanfei Palace.
He agreed to the deal, he needed to prepare a special poison for Wanfeigong that suited his style and needs.
This poison was named Hua Fei Hua. Xia Linghua required it to be unique. She used the poison-locking properties and mixed nine kinds of aromatic poisons to form a locked poison, and then prepared antidotes and relief drugs.
As payment for the transaction, Xia Linghua will bring him into the upper class circle and obtain a special assessment quota.
This quota is considered rare for Minggan, because the road ahead is becoming increasingly unknown, and Wei He also understands that he must find a direction and teacher that best suits him.
The real world is in crisis step by step. It is too slow to rely on yourself alone.
Thinking of this, he felt a little better. After eating snacks and drinking tea, he abided by the agreement and went to the address Xia Linghua mentioned, all the way there.
After leaving the teahouse, we walked through several streets.
Soon he stood still in front of a mansion with two black lions in front of the door.
Although black lions are majestic and majestic, most people rarely use black stone lions as gatekeepers to protect their homes.
But this family is just the opposite.
There is a plaque hanging above the mansion: 'Huaye Residence'.
There are guards guarding the door. Each one has a steady aura and an occasional flash of light in his eyes. It is obvious that he is not an ordinary guard.
Wei He took a step forward, took out the sign he received from Xia Linghua, and waved it in front of the guard.
"Please, someone has already arrived inside, please wait a moment." The guard whispered.
Wei He nodded.
Outside, it looks like a party held in an ordinary mansion, but if Xia Linghua hadn't given the answer, no one would have known that a special gathering that was extremely rare in Jinzhou was being held here today.
A top-notch party only for real people.
After putting away the sign, Wei He strode into the mansion.
The moment he entered the mansion, he felt cold all over.
It was as if I had passed through some strange membrane and entered a new area.
Within five meters of entering from the gate of the mansion, Wei He felt that he had entered another world.
The air quickly became cool, the faint fragrance of flowers spread, and the light in front of his eyes was slightly distorted, but he just blinked and everything returned to normal.
It was as if the feeling just now was just an illusion.
In the middle courtyard of Huaye Residence, guards lined up a straight passage leading directly to the lobby of the back room.
Wei He frowned, feeling that this place was not in the previous courtyard.
But the surroundings are clearly the same yard decorations just now.
He raised his head and looked at the sky.
The sky that was bright and cloudy just now seemed to have turned into a faint layer of gray.
It seems that everything in the outside world has lost its color, and only this small courtyard is still alive.
"Guests please." A maid leading the way approached and bowed to Wei He.
"Yeah." Wei He responded. This method of changing the environment was somewhat beyond his imagination.
This is no longer something that simple martial arts can do.
He followed the maid all the way inside and towards the lobby.
Soon, the moment he entered the lobby, Wei He felt a chill all over his body, as if he had entered another closed and isolated environment again.
The originally quiet surroundings suddenly became lively.
In the hall, there are musicians playing music carefully, enchanting women dancing to the music, and maids and waiters walking through, delivering portions of special snacks exuding a strange fragrance to the guests standing against the wall in the lobby.
"When will you start? I still have to rush to the border to do something. If we don't open it again and things are delayed, will you compensate me for the loss?"
"Brother Zhao, don't worry, that nine-tailed rhinoceros won't leave our Yuan Kingdom so quickly."
"Sister Wang, you are well and well. We have not seen each other for thirty years, and you are still as gorgeous as ever. You have not aged at all~~"
"No, it's your He family. You said you wanted to leave the country before and go to Yujingzong, but you haven't left yet? You haven't mastered that thing yet?"
"It can't be that easy. There are too many things needed and they are too broken. No, now I come to Xiaohui to look for things again."
"Brother Ouyang? Do you know the announcement from the Wu Kingdom a few days ago? The Wu Kingdom Realm is really bullying people. They are pressing harder and harder. In the previous battle in Yizhou, three people from the Xiangtori Realm Realm died in the battle. Now they are pressing hard against Taizhou.
The next one will definitely come to me, Jinzhou... There are no unbroken eggs when the nest is overturned. If you don't plan as soon as possible, I'm afraid something will happen in the future."
All kinds of verbal and conversational information rushed into Wei He's ears like raindrops.
He followed the waiter to an empty seat and sat down, looking around the lobby.
There were more than ten people sitting sparsely in the lobby.
Many of them were obviously not wearing Jinzhou-style clothes, and they were obviously experts who had come all the way from other states to attend the conference.
What made him nervous the most was that everyone here was unabashedly releasing traces of strange and real strength that was like living creatures.
This means that they are probably all Minggan!
What's exaggerated is that at this time, there were still people entering the lobby from time to time at the door.
But most of these people are just like him, retail investors who come in alone.
Occasionally, there will be a group of several people together, which will quickly attract the attention of people sitting around.
As soon as these groups of people sit down, someone will come up to greet them.
Some power names that Wei He had never heard of came out from their exchanges.
Here...it seems like a whole new level, a whole new world.
Are there so many unforgettable memories around Jinzhou?
Wei He's heart was shaken, but he remained expressionless as he sat in his position. Recalling Xia Linghua's strength before, he now understood.
Xia Linghua was definitely not just an ordinary person. As for how many times she had experienced it, he didn't know.
But having face can attract so many memories, one can only imagine how strong the power hidden behind forces such as Wanfeigong and Wushi Sect is.
"This brother, is this your first time here?"
Just when he was a little unfamiliar and at a loss as to what to do, a man sitting on the seat next to him took the initiative to chat with him with a smile.
"Exactly, I am from outside the state, and this is my first time attending this small gathering in Jinzhou." Wei He nodded and replied. The other party also spoke Dayuan Mandarin. Although there were some strange endings, he could still communicate without any mistakes.
"The next Duan Chaosheng came from Yunzhou and is not from Jinzhou. However, this small gathering in Wanfei Palace is quite famous in several surrounding states. So there are a lot of people coming."
The man was dressed like a rich man, and he had a deep temperament that was no longer young. Or it would be more appropriate to describe him as an older rich man.
"I'm in Chentang, and I lived in Taizhou temporarily before." Wei He also replied with clasped fists and made up a pseudonym. "Brother Duan, this shouldn't be the first time to attend such a small meeting, right?"
"This is true. Earlier, along with the elders in my family, I attended the Wanhua Party held in Wanfei Palace. It was a large scale event.
Small gatherings like this now happen every year, but the Ten Thousand Flowers Fair is only held once every ten years. So it is still fresh in people’s memories." Duan Chaosheng said with a smile, "Unfortunately, that was already eighteen years ago.
, now that I have settled down, I came alone, but I lost the opportunity I had before. I can only attend a small meeting when passing by Jinzhou to see if there is anything good."
The Ten Thousand Flowers Party is held once every ten years. I participated in it eighteen years ago...
Wei He was speechless.
When this group of people talk, they always talk in units of at least ten years. They look so young, but they all turn out to be old guys?
"Brother Duan, do you know what good things will come out of this party?" Wei He asked with some skill.
Asking like this can not only elicit some information, but also prevent others from seeing that he is a newcomer.
"Wanfei Palace announced before that there are white turtle shells for sale, as well as a batch of newly brewed Baihua Dingshen Decoction. The rest depends on what everyone brings and leaves it to them to trade on their behalf.
"Duan Chaosheng said a few words briefly.
"Among the imperial elixirs, Baihua Dingshen Dew is considered to be a very cost-effective medicine. One dose can last for a year.
The increased resistance is also enough to make it easier for people with a fixed sense of 2 or less to survive the previous two stages of ghost wind."
Duan Chaosheng also sighed as he spoke.
"It's just that the price is too expensive. If the ghost wind hadn't become more and more intense in recent years, and there was a catastrophic Tianyin disaster a while ago, these imperial elixirs wouldn't be so expensive like in previous years..."
New terms popped out of Duan Chaosheng's mouth one after another, making Wei He a little overwhelmed.
But it also made his thinking suddenly clear.
Suddenly he felt that these Minggan real people and ordinary people lived in completely different worlds.
Their time scale is often ten to several decades, and on such a scale, ordinary people cannot integrate into them. It is also difficult to meet them.
Just imagine, ten years is as common as January or two in these people's mouths.
But for ordinary people, ten years is enough for a teenager to become an adult, and for an adult to gradually enter middle age.
After chatting with Duan Chaosheng for a while, Wei He also got some information about Dinggan Zhenren from him.
It turns out that the real purpose of many martial arts practices is to unlock human beings' clouded perceptions and step into the real world.
The real world contains all kinds of severe natural disasters, dangers, and threats.
