Chapter 33: The Plan to Go Home
After eating Laba porridge, Pan Long was ready to leave for home.
The first to set off was the "Yunzhou Heroic White Tiger Star", the new generation of congenital masters who left Guangling City on the ninth day of the first month of the month.
From Guangling to Yunzhou, if you have enough time, the most suitable way is to go up the Tongtian River to Yunmengze or Pengze, and then cross Daze and take the Kyushu Avenue to Yunzhou.
Of course, if you are strong in martial arts, you can simply go up against the Tongtian River, through the turbulent Tiannu Gorge, follow the rolling torrent in the rugged mountains, and walk to the great turning point of the upper reaches of the Tongtian River to the south, and then leave the Tongtian River and go straight to the south.
It's just that this road is very risky, especially in the upper reaches of the Tongtian River, where there are sparsely populated and many demons, and there are many powerful monsters and monsters lurking in the river.
White Tiger Star didn't take the water route, he only had less than a month, and he had to hurry up.
So after he set out from Guangling City, he first crossed the Tongtian River, then went all the way south, along Kyushu Avenue to the south of Yangzhou, and then turned west from the south of Yangzhou to Jingzhou, and then crossed Jingzhou and arrived in Yunzhou.
This road is a thoroughfare, and it is very safe. If a martial arts master doesn't care about physical strength, he can run all the way, and it only takes about ten days to arrive.
But in that case, even if the innate master has a long endurance, he will be tired and lie down.
White Tiger Star naturally doesn't have to be in such a hurry, he still has more than twenty days, so he doesn't need to play with his life like this.
Walking along Kyushu Avenue to Yunzhou Huaxi (the "hometown" of the White Tiger Star), it is about 12,300 miles away, and the average time is 20 days, which is about 600 miles a day.
Ordinary business trips are only thirty or forty miles a day. Even for those who walk, the so-called "concurrent journey" will not exceed 100 miles a day. Traveling 600 miles a day can only be done by riding a different type of BMW, and even changing horses every time you go to a city.
But for the innate master, this level of running is nothing.
Once the innate master cultivates to "Qi Difference", his endurance has reached the point of inhumanity. As long as they don't exert their light skills with all their might, they will not be tired from running all day long just by running on a pair of legs.
There are twelve hours in a day, and three or four hours are spent resting, and the remaining eight hours, each hour, is only seventy-five miles.
Running seventy-five miles in an hour is really nothing.
This kind of thing, which is unimaginable for ordinary people, is easy for innate masters. That's why people in the Kyushu world regard the innate as otherworldly.asxs., once they step into the congenital, they are essentially different from the mundane, and they can no longer be regarded as "mortals".
Although running 12,300 miles on the road, it seems stupid......
After Pan Long left Guangling City, he quickly escaped from the eyes of various forces, and then a day later, he appeared in Guangling City as Pan Long.
In the meantime, he had already found a clean rock, set up a temporary altar, lit the teacher's incense, and told the teacher about the problems he had encountered.
"You can go with confidence, during the Chinese New Year, the White Tiger Star will drink happily in Huaxi every day, and get drunk for ten days and half a month in one go. Bi Lingkong replied.
Pan Long was relieved at this time, but he was a little uneasy again.
Who could be that "White Tiger Star" who gets drunk every day? Could it be that the teacher himself is pretending?
The teacher's alcohol consumption is not very good, if he is really drunk every day, the demon gods in Yunzhou are afraid that they will be unlucky......
However, after Bi Lingkong replied, Xinxiang extinguished herself, but she had already ended the call. Pan Long hesitated, but still didn't bother the teacher anymore, packed up his things, and returned to Guangling City.
Back in Guangling City, he visited Yitian Courtyard again and had a good conversation with Wu Jixing and others.
"On the seventh day of the lunar month, we happened to be away. Wu Jixing said, "I went out and did a little bit of Jianghu business...... Haha, you know, people in the rivers and lakes are always inevitably cut or chopped. At that time, Cui Gu was still a little injured - well, if only you had been there at the time. ”
She said very calmly, and she didn't hide her intention to win over Pan Long at all.
This gang leader of Qionghua Pavilion, if you don't consider her slightly misplaced self-identity, is really a very good friend, and also a very good green forest hero.
Pan Long had already secretly inquired about the events at that time, and knew that a conflict broke out between Qionghua Pavilion and Guishan that day. The reason is probably to compete for the right to host the "Dragon King Entering the Sea Conference" during the Chinese New Year.
The Dragon King Entering the Sea Conference is the most important event in the lower reaches of the Tongtian River and even in the estuary area every year. Every Chinese New Year, all forces will gather here to hold a grand celebration and pray for good weather and peace in the coming year.
The host of this grand event was naturally the Great Xia Imperial Court, but the organizers took turns to replace them in the white path and the green forest. This year's event happened to be hosted by the Green Forest side, and the Green Forest Gangs from all walks of life had long been ready to move, wanting to show their faces in front of the whole world and compete for a face.
Becoming the organizer of the Dragon King's Sea Conference is of course not just a matter of face. The holding of the event will bring a huge amount of "luck", which will be transformed into good luck in the next few years after the festival, so that the organizers can do things smoothly and make a lot of money.
Moreover, after hosting the event, the Great Xia Imperial Court will also take care of the organizer for a few years, and even all the forces in the rivers and lakes will give in to the host. Especially for those medium-sized Jianghu organizations, through such a grand event, they can improve their strength by a few points, go to a higher level, and maybe even expand into a large organization.
Such a grand event, of course, could not really fall into the hands of two Green Forest Gangs that could only be regarded as medium-sized. Qionghua Pavilion is a member of the Weiyang Business Federation, and the Guishan Association is a member of the Great River Company. One on land and the other on the water, both of them were giant-level behemoths in the green forests of the Great Xia Dynasty.
At the annual Dragon King Entering the Sea Conference, the Green Forest has never been out of the grasp of the union of two giant gangs. It's just that whether it is hosted by the heroes in the water or by the heroes on the shore will be presiding over it, and they will have to fight every time.
Once every two years, a fierce battle breaks out in the green forest in order to compete for the right to host the host. Sometimes it's a competition of masters, and sometimes it's a fight between two factions.
Qionghua Pavilion chose to fight this time, led by Wu Jixing, fourteen innate masters with more than a thousand gangs (many of which are temporarily hired thugs), and swept into the Green Turtle Mountain, the general helm of the Turtle Mountain Society, and after a fierce battle, the current president of the Turtle Mountain Society, who inherited the name of "Green Head Turtle", was cut into a fairly even seven or eight sections, and successfully completed the common "who is in favor of, who is against?" drama in the green forest.
In that battle, Wu Jixing was wearing armor, holding a shield and a big axe, and rushed to the front of the Qionghua Pavilion. She wielded her weapon and fought frantically, and she didn't know how many people she had slashed and killed, and how many injuries she had suffered. I only heard that when the battle ended, her whole body seemed to be fished out of the blood water, and blood was dripping everywhere.
This has happened more than once.
In addition to her sharp eyes, Wu Jixing is generally a relatively good talker - otherwise when she took Cui Gu to have breakfast in the teahouse, so many people would not dare to peek. But every time she fights with someone, she transforms into a fierce star like a demon.
Killing until she was dripping blood, this kind of thing is not uncommon for her.
Therefore, she is considered by many to be the reincarnation of the murderous star, and has been nicknamed "Broken Army Star".
If there is no such a terrifying record, even if there is a master's divination as evidence, who will really buy the account of the "broken military star"?
The people of the rivers and lakes don't recognize the heavenly stars, they only recognize the sword in their hands!
Pan Long listened to Wu Jixing's words, smiled slightly, and looked at Cui Gu.
Cuigu's face immediately turned red, and she shook her head again and again: "I...... I'm not hurt...... No, I'm hurt...... Wrong...... Ah, there's porridge still boiling on the pot......"
She ran out incoherently, as if someone was behind her. It looks like a little rabbit hiding from a jackal, and you can't see at all that the blood in your hair dried up that day, and it took more than an hour to soak in hot water before washing it off.
Looking at her hasty appearance, Pan Long couldn't help but laugh again.
Although I know that there may be an element of performance in this, the picture of the beauty is pleasing to the eye at any time.
Only when Cui Gu left did he turn his gaze back to Wu Jixing's body and ask, "Are you injured?"
Wu Jixing's face was a little pale, and her aura was two points weaker than usual, but the murderous aura on her body was heavier than usual, and it was obvious that she had killed many people in that battle and was not lightly injured.
It's just a little strange that her breath is obviously weak and murderous, but her mental state is very good - not the kind of appearance that is excited because of stimulation, but has a mellow breath and a taste of control.
This feeling is the first time Pan Long has found it in her.
"Injuries are not a bad thing for me. Wu Jixing didn't mean to hide it, and said very frankly, "I am naturally murderous, and I usually rely on cultivating Buddhism to forcibly suppress it. Being able to drop everything and have a good fight is a very comfortable thing for me. Being injured in this process can just vent the excessively vigorous qi and blood, which is beneficial and harmless. ”
She smiled and said, "Wen Chaogong said: In the extreme west, doctors think that all diseases in the human body are born from poisonous blood in the body, so the bloodletting method is the guideline. I naturally don't know how to do phlebotomy in the far west, but being able to have a bloodletting at the right time is at least very comfortable for me. ”
Pan Long frowned and said, "This is damaging your own qi and blood. ”
"I know, but I'm not short of blood. Wu Jixing smiled bitterly, "On the contrary, I often think that my qi and blood are too vigorous, so vigorous that I don't look like a woman." ”
Because of the reason of the heavens, women have a slightly weaker qi and blood than men under the same circumstances. But this situation obviously does not apply to Wu Jixing, her vigor and blood, even among men, few people can compare.
The fact that the "reincarnation of the murderous star" can be believed by herself is also an important reason.
Pan Long didn't persuade again, and talked about preparing to go home for the New Year.
"Are you going back to the Northland for the New Year? Well, that's right, wanderers always have to return to their hometowns. Wu Jixing was taken aback slightly, and then nodded in agreement, "Guangling is almost the easternmost part of Kyushu, and the northern land is the westernmost part of Kyushu. If you want to go to the Northland for the New Year, it's really time to go. ”
"That's why I've come to bid you farewell. ”
Wu Jixing was not surprised, smiled, and asked: "Generally speaking, when a wanderer returns to his hometown, he must bring all kinds of local products purchased outside and distribute them to his fathers and fellow villagers in his hometown. Are you ready for these things?"
"Guangling City is so prosperous, it's good to buy some before you go. ”
"That's not good!" Wu Jixing smiled more and more happily, "If I don't know, it's fine, since I know, how can I let you bring those common things on the market back?
Pan Long thought about it and thanked him.
"It's a pity that the time is relatively tight, and the road will be very rushed, otherwise, I can also help you arrange a few charming beauties to take home to make your parents happy. Wu Jixing raised his eyebrows and showed a "you know" smile, "The beauties of Yangzhou are also very famous." ”
Pan Long was suddenly a little embarrassed: "Forget it, I have no plans to start a family for the time being." ”
"It's not about starting a family, those are specially cultivated to serve people from an early age. If you like, take it as a concubine. If you don't like it, arranging for them to marry into a good family is also a good destination. Wu Jixing said, "It's too late this year, if you come to Yangzhou next year, I'll help you arrange it in advance." When the autumn flood is over, you will go back by boat, and the storage will be the kind that can satisfy your family. ”
For this topic that is close to human trafficking, Pan Long is really a little unable to catch up.
But he also knows that the style in the green forest is actually like this.
Since Wu Jixing treats him as a friend, or wants to win him over, he naturally won't spare wealth and beauty - from what she overheard at the beginning, she is even willing to give Pan Long her most trusted Cui Gu as a bargaining chip, how can she care about anything else?
The people of the green forest are singing and drinking, heroic and cheerful, behind this great pride, there are always some things that Pan Long can't adapt to in the white way.
Otherwise, how can the saying "black and white" be known to everyone?
Pan Long sighed secretly, said a few words of greeting, and left.
Looking at his distant figure, Wu Jixing said to Cui Gu, who came back quietly at some point: "After all, he is a person in the white way. ”
"Well, there is nothing bad about the people in the White Dao, they are much more reliable than the green forest. ”
"yes. I'm just a little bit of a pity. Wu Jixing sighed, "When you become Mrs. Pan, if our sisters want to fight side by side and cut people together, I'm afraid there will be no chance......
