"Will you take me with you? I also want to see the magnanimity of Tianshi Sect." Yu Ping swallowed.
"I think you want to try the delicious food of Tianshi Sect, right? There is no need to stay here. You and Uncle Zhou are both coming with me. Tianshi Sect is in Yanzhou, not far from us. I am going to learn from Zhao Shoufu
, travel thousands of miles, practicing as you go. When you join the Tianshi Sect, take some time to go to the nearby Guxuan Mountain."
"The largest sect in martial arts, tsk tsk, I really want to see it." Yu Ping said.
"I'm going to pay a visit to Lord Supervisor and Marshal Chen and set off tomorrow. You pack up, find a caravan heading towards Tianshi City, and we'll hit the road together."
"Okay."
At dawn, the three of them put on their casual clothes, carried their luggage, and quietly left the Zhenbei Army, joining a large caravan of three hundred people and leaving Beiyuan City.
Zhenbeijun, Supervise the Army Mansion.
When Cha Fuli heard the spies' report, he thought in his mind: "The dignified commander and the commander-in-chief will leave as soon as they say it. This Li Qingxian is true to his word. It seems that he had to withdraw as planned before. This person is not a man who is fighting for power and gain."
As for Lu Han, I'll just be perfunctory. You are the righteous son of the Governor, and so am I. You are a martial arts genius, but you have just been promoted to the fourth rank. Let's wait until the day you are promoted to the first rank. We will offend a future for you.
A great life magician, I am not that stupid to this extent..."
Marshal's Mansion.
"Commander, Li Qingxian is really gone."
"Oh, it's in vain that you were so optimistic. As a result, you didn't take the Zhenbei Army as your own."
"I thought he could contain Chafuli by coming here, but who knew he was also a coward."
"Now that I'm gone, I don't know if he will come back again in the year of the monkey. By then, Modao's army won't be able to rely on him."
"Commander, what do you think of this matter?"
All the generals looked at Chen Yingyang.
"Everyone has his or her own ambitions, don't force them."
In the spring light in the north, sand and dust are swirling, and the caravan is heading south.
Li Qingxian often sat in the carriage to practice, and occasionally got out of the carriage to chat with nearby businessmen, guards, bodyguards, monks, etc.
Every night when setting up camp and resting, the bonfire would be lit, and Li Qingxian would be there, sitting among the crowd, talking and laughing with them.
The caravans come from all over the world, some are silent, like Zhou Hen, and some are looking for fun, like Yu Ping.
Li Qingxian's status as a seventh-grade Taoist cultivator is inconspicuous, but no one provokes him. Everyone who sees him calls him "Master Li".
A few days ago, everyone in the caravan was unfamiliar and relatively reserved.
After three days, everyone became familiar with each other, and these people who traveled around the world opened up and chatted freely.
Different people are scattered around different campfires, disconnected from each other.
Sometimes, Li Qingxian goes to martial arts circles.
The warriors are the loudest among everyone. They always like to talk about where the treasure was found, which sect produced the genius, which sect was wiped out, and occasionally discuss martial arts.
When the conversation got deeper, they would whisper some rumors about monks, such as the ferocity of the demon sect and the weirdness of the evil sect.
be understood.
In the end, it is inevitable to argue about the ranking of today's martial arts. When the argument reaches the extreme, they will curse and compete with each other and try a few moves.
Fortunately, there are people in charge, and once the three moves are passed, they will stop.
Three moves can't tell the difference between life and death, but they are enough to give a rough idea of who is better.
I can’t bear to lose, so I go hide in another circle for a few days and then come back.
The pride of winning subsided within two days, just like always.
Occasionally go to businessmen's circles.
When businessmen gather together, they like to analyze the trends of the court, analyze the situation in various places, share gossip, and discuss what is most profitable and what is losing money, who can be messed with, and where not to go.
As they chatted, the businessmen couldn't help complaining about the low status of businessmen. In some places, businessmen's children were not even allowed to attend good academies. Some even accused local tyrants of not treating businessmen as human beings, and arbitrarily framed businessmen and then plundered their property. In the eyes of others,
Businessmen are full of fat, and actual businessmen are worse than the dogs of the powerful and powerful.
At the end of the day, businessmen follow the custom of enumerating the merits of businessmen, because the world underestimates them.
If there are too many complaints, someone will remind them if they are brought up to the senior officials. Then everyone will change the topic and start laughing at the brainless warriors, clumsy farmers and confused long-term workers. Occasionally, they will also talk about romantic affairs.
Li Qingxian also often went to the escort circle of those unworthy guys to chat.
They either told some short stories about the Zhang family and the Li family, or told stories about heroes and heroes, or told about places that had been hit by disasters. From time to time, they told some true and false secrets, pretending to be incomprehensible and smiling silently.
At the end of the conversation, these people will definitely say that the world is not good, cite various tragic examples around them, and tell people how to avoid it.
There were also some small groups accompanying the chamber of commerce who only chatted around their own small campfires.
In the past, Li Qingxian mainly understood the world through the imperial palace newspapers and night guard intelligence, but now he hears the virtual and real world with his own ears.
As the team traveled south, they would often encounter small groups of monsters or horse bandits.
Most of the monsters or horse bandits watched from a distance and left. Occasionally, someone came and the team announced their names and backgrounds, or showed their middle-class status, and those people dispersed.
After walking for ten days, Li Qingxian recalled that he encountered monsters or horse bandits snooping on him an average of ten times a day.
The caravan passed through Tianfang City, Shiyuan City, Lanhu City and Baoshan City, and finally saw the huge Tianshi Mountain from a distance like a giant tower reaching into the sky.
At the foot of the green Tianshi Mountain, a white city lies in front of it.
Many people in the team breathed a long sigh of relief.
“Finally we’re here!”
“It’s so uncomfortable to be on tenterhooks all day long!”
"I'm lucky that I didn't meet any gangsters along the way, otherwise there would have been a big fight."
Yu Ping glanced at Li Qingxian and Zhou Hen, and thought of these two men, even the more lucky bandits and horse bandits would avoid them.
After ten days, everyone became familiar with each other, and there was no longer any threat. They relaxed and chatted loudly.
The middle-grade guard captain of the caravan laughed and cursed a few words and stopped caring.
Not long after, some store clerks took leaflets and distributed advertisements.
These days, paper is not expensive, but no one is willing to throw it away, so they just catch it in their hands.
"Sure enough, it is another advertisement for the Wanhe Chamber of Commerce. It is indeed a big company backed by the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce. Look at the jingles and children's songs above. As long as there is a Wanhe Chamber of Commerce in the city, the children will sing it, tsk tsk..."
"The Wanhe Chamber of Commerce is really powerful. If these children grow up, who won't want to buy their products?"
"His products are really good, such as bone china, translucent colored glaze, and all kinds of exquisite things, which are breathtaking."
"It's nothing more than a grotesque skill that cannot be put on the stage." An old Confucian scholar who was not yet a scholar shook his head.
"In addition to these good-looking ones, the Wanhe Chamber of Commerce also has a variety of cheap tools, whether they are plows, carriages, scissors, etc., which can help people, so why can't they be on the stage? Even the palace uses Wanhe Chamber of Commerce's tools, so what?
If not called mesa, what do you call it?”
"In a few years, everything you wear and eat will be from the Wanhe Chamber of Commerce."
"Don't argue with this pedantic old guy. If he is really knowledgeable, he won't be able to see only darkness. Anyway, I am especially grateful for his glass lamp. The oil lamp almost blinded my eyes before..."
