Chapter 42: Although the bird is small, it has ambitions
It's cloudy today and the autumn wind is blowing, bringing a bit of coolness.
On the official road leading from Qingtong Township to Lin'an County, there were three figures walking quickly, namely Fang Qinglei, Lin Xiao and Zhou Zheng.
Fang Qinglei did not carry anything else except for the clothes he wore. Lin Xiao was carrying a large baggage, and Zhou Zheng was carrying a small baggage.
Originally, Lin Xiao thought that since he had money, he could buy new clothes and supplies after arriving in the county town. But when he was about to leave, he still couldn't help but pack up. As a result, he packed a big bag.
I can't bear to throw them away. They are all quite good and can be used again. It would be a pity to lose them.
Facts have proved that even if I am rich, I, Lin Wuming, will not become a bad man.
Brother Ax, on the other hand, is indeed a bad guy through and through. Thinking of this, Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and felt that his handsome face was still burning. However, he could only blame himself for being too young and being fooled by him. He would say whatever he said.
Just control your strength and refine it externally. As a result, if you find it difficult to deal with yourself, you will increase your strength.
But when I think about it, I'm really good. Even a martial arts master like Brother Ax can't defeat me while limiting my own strength to my own level.
After all, the ability to successfully explode through external training and achieve a small amount of internal training is still amazing, and not everyone can do it.
In fact, with Fang Qinglei's martial arts master-level strength, he limits his own power to the level of external forging, and only relies on his superb martial arts attainments. At best, he can only be as good as Lin Xiao, so he is shameless.
After all, the purpose of improving strength at the beginning was to give Lin Xiao a good beating. Just give him a good beating, and he would feel relaxed and open to all the pulses.
Qingtong Township is actually not very far from Lin'an County. It takes about an hour and a half for an ordinary person to walk. If it weren't for Zhou Zheng being taken care of, with the speed of Lin Xiao and Fang Qinglei, it would take less than half an hour to arrive.
It would be faster if Fang Qinglei was alone.
Well, speaking of it, I am lagging behind.
Zhou Zheng is not very old, but after practicing martial arts during this period and having a sufficient supply of meat, his muscles and bones are much stronger. He can walk for an hour and a half without feeling tired.
Ahead, the sound of a rushing river came and gradually became clearer. Lin Xiao and the other three also saw a stone arch bridge. On the stone arch bridge stood a stone tablet about two meters high. The traces were mottled and looked very ancient.
The letter was written with two characters: Lin'an.
"That's the county monument, dividing the township and county." Fang Qinglei introduced, Lin Xiao and Zhou Zheng both nodded.
Speaking of which, Lin Xiao had actually been to Lin'an County before. At that time, his adoptive parents were still there and they had brought him here once, many years ago.
Stepping on the stone arch bridge, under the bridge is the endless river water rolling away. There are boats drifting on the river and shouting. These are things that cannot be seen in Qingtong Township. Zhou Zheng stares with wide eyes, full of curiosity.
.
When crossing the county monument, Lin Xiao couldn't help but feel excited: "I finally come to the county again. This time, I will stay in the county and make a name for myself."
Lin Xiao felt that he couldn't stay in a small place like Qingtong Township for the rest of his life. Of course, before Stinky Goudan appeared, he really didn't think so much. He could only live one day at a time and cultivate Azheng into a talented person.
Things are different now, and I am no longer a master of the world.
Looking back, he could no longer see Qingtong Township. In Qingtong Township, his concern was Zhou Zheng, who had left with him, and the other three were Wang Daniu. However, Lin Xiao also gave them a hundred taels of silver each as a way for them to settle down and live.
With capital, you can start a small business on your own or find a job. It is always better than joining a gang.
Although I came here a few years ago, compared to what I remember, it seems that not much has changed.
"Azheng, Lin'an County is divided into the inner city and four districts." Lin Xiao said to Zhou Zheng: "The four districts are southeast, northwest and northwest. The inner city is located in the center of the four districts and is surrounded by city walls. It is the territory of high-ranking officials and nobles in Lin'an County. Some people say
, the inner city is the real Lin'an County, and the four districts of southeast, northwest and northwest are just vassals."
"You can say that." Fang Qinglei nodded: "But it's not entirely right."
"How do I know so much?" Lin Xiao didn't care. No matter whether he was a vassal or a real person, it was still called Lin'an County.
The Baiyun Gang is located in the East District of Lin'an County. The destination of Lin Xiao and the others is naturally the East District. There are five major academies in Lin'an County, belonging to the inner city and the southeast and northwest districts.
Zhou Zheng came to the city for the first time. His eyes widened and he looked around. The streets here were twice as wide as the busiest Wuli Street in Qingtong Township. They seemed cleaner and tidier.
There is a layer of luster, so dazzling.
The shops on both sides of Broad Street seem to be more 'luxurious' than those on Wuli Street. Even the old shops give Zhou Zheng this feeling. It is a kind of impact from the heart, as if it is naturally carrying a certain feeling.
Layers of brilliance.
Lin Xiao looked at Zhou Zheng with a smile on his face, understanding his mood very well.
Excited, excited, and a little cautious, people passing by immediately laughed when they saw it, and some even pointed in the distance: "Look, a country bumpkin."
"Brother, are they talking about us?" The excitement on Zhou Zheng's face disappeared, and he seemed to ask more cautiously.
"No." Lin Xiao's answer made Zhou Zheng subconsciously breathe a sigh of relief, but his next words made Zhou Zheng's face darken again: "They were talking about you."
"Azheng, although we come from a small place, we will not be humbler than them." Lin Xiao habitually hit Zhou Zheng and then said with a serious face: "Remember, although the sparrow is small, it has the ambition of a swan.
, Even in this mortal world, you can look up to the sky. Don’t care about your origins and origins. As long as you are willing to work hard, one day they will all need to look up to you."
Fang Qinglei glanced at Lin Xiao in surprise. He was able to say such insightful words, as if he had read a lot of poems and books. It was really surprising.
"Yeah." Zhou Zheng straightened his face and nodded vigorously.
The Baiyun Gang reported to Lin Xiao within three days. After receiving the letter, Lin Xiao was beaten by Brother Ax and began to organize it. He set out the next day and planned to report to the Baiyun Gang tomorrow. Today, he was looking for a school.
In the new house, Fang Qinglei doesn't plan to open a martial arts gym or anything else. He already has apprentices, so why not open a martial arts gym? There is no shortage of money.
Buy a house first, and then arrange Zhou Zheng to enter the East District Academy. Only after completing all this, will Lin Xiao feel confident about going to the Baiyun Gang to report.
I found a specialized dental shop to recommend a house with a large courtyard. After searching around for a long time, I finally found a house that I was satisfied with in every aspect. However, it cost a full three thousand taels of silver. I had no choice but to borrow it from Fang Qinglei. As for
Lin Xiao couldn't bear to ask Fang Qinglei to pay for it. After all, he asked to come to the county town, and he and Azheng would occupy the majority of the house.
Fang Qinglei didn't care about Lin Xiao's behavior and readily lent money to Lin Xiao.
When he saw Zhou Zheng's name written on the house deed and his official seal stamped on it, Lin Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In this way, even if something unexpected happened to him, Azheng would still have enough capital to survive and even sell the house.
It is also a good choice to return to Qingtong Township with the money. At least there is an old house of their own in Qingtong Township.
