Diqiu Town, Jinfu Inn, night. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Alas, why isn't this little kid awake yet? Don't you just kill someone, scared like this!" A square-faced young man among the eight men in green shirts leaned on the head of Zishang's bed, looked at Zishang who was still asleep, and couldn't help sighing.

"Cut, Huzi, what are you talking about? It's like you were calm when you killed someone for the first time!" said another man, "Baili Lion", who was sitting next to him drinking tea, disdainfully.

As soon as Baili Hu heard this, he immediately became anxious, and said: "Hey, what are you talking about! I vomited a few times, although I was also scared, but I was not like this little child, I was scared and fainted! I have been fainting for so long!"

"Hmph! Fifty steps and a hundred steps of laughter!" Baili Shi snorted coldly, walked to the bed next to him, sat cross-legged and cultivated, and said no more.

"Oh, I'll go, what do you mean? Aren't we all the same! Who was better than the other at that time?"

Baili Lion was motionless, sitting there and cultivating seriously, not caring about Baili Tiger's provocation.

Baili Tiger did not give up, and the broken thoughts of "chirping" next to him.

After a while, the door opened, and a tall, fat young man rubbed his eyes, knocked on the door, and said, "Hey, hey, hey, Brother Tiger, can you rest? It's so late, aren't you sleepy?"

"I want you to take care of it! I know that I don't sleep at night! little bear cub!" Baili Hu scolded unhappily.

Baili Daxiong was bored, and said stupidly: "Okay, good, good, you are handsome, you are right! But can you be quieter, I and Erxiong heard your voice next door! Let people not sleep......"

Knock knock!

"Xiaohu, go to bed early, tomorrow if the child doesn't wake up, we'll leave him a note and leave." ”

Big Brother Baili Cat, who lives next door, knocked on the wall and said.

Baili Big Bear shrugged his shoulders and said, "Look! You really disturb the people! Big Brother is all noisy by you." ”

Bailihu was irritable for a while, waved his hand impatiently, and said, "Let's go, let's go! ”

After speaking, he sat cross-legged on his bed, meditated and cultivated, and tossed for half an hour before calming down, calming down, and gradually entering the state of cultivation.

The moon moved slowly in the night, and after six hours of trekking, it slowly set, and when the dawn broke in the east, it quietly hid below the horizon......

Zishang, who was lying on the bed, still didn't move, Bailihu and the others simply packed their luggage and gathered in this room, waiting for Bailihu to write a message.

"That's it! The writing is beautiful, the phrasing is incisive, and it is really a superior literary level!" he put the brush on the table, picked up the paper on which he had written, and dried it.

In the first year of the establishment of the Dahao Dynasty, paper was invented, and it was forcibly popularized by Yinghao with administrative power in half a year, but after 30 years of progress, the quality and cost of paper are very ideal.

In addition, it also led to the invention of engraving printing, unlike the time of the Great Shang Dynasty, the whole country vigorously developed silkworm breeding, the production of silk silk, the cost is high, the output is limited.

The advent of paper also produced a large number of painters, calligraphers, etc., which greatly promoted the development of society.

However, Yinghao prohibits private papermaking and all official offices, which is very disturbing......

"Haha, after that kid reads it, he must not be frightened by my literary talent!haha!" Baili Hu said narcissistically, ignoring the brothers around him.

"I don't think so!" a voice came faintly from behind him.

Baili Hu didn't think about it, and replied: "Hmph! You are jealous of me, don't explain!"

"Hey, little brother, you're awake!" Baili Daxiong glanced back and found Zishang standing behind him, and said in surprise.

Hearing him shout, the other seven people all turned to look, and Zishang hurriedly bowed his hand and said:

"Thank you for saving your life, I can't thank you enough!"

Bailihu, who was still sitting and holding the paper, couldn't help but pouted and said, "It's this sentence again, can't you change the wording?"

"Oh, you're awake, didn't I just write this heroic message in vain!" Looking at the paper in his hand that had not yet dried, 10,000 alpacas galloped past in Bailihu's heart.

Zishang directly ignored his last sentence and asked curiously, "What do you mean...... That's it again?"

The eldest brother Baili Mao hurriedly explained: "Oh! That's right, we are the eight prodigal sons of the Baili family, my name is Baili Mao, and I am their boss, these seven are Baili Lion, Leopard, Eagle, Crocodile, Big Bear, and Two Bears. ”

Baili Hu interjected: "People give the nickname [Baili Eight Heroes], but I don't think it's heroic enough, so I changed the name to [Baili Eight Waves], how about it?

As he spoke, he straightened his collar and brushed his hair, looking like he was underwhelmed.

Zishang was speechless, but gave a meaningful "hehe".

Baili Cat continued: "We have been wandering outside for many years, the road is uneven, drawing knives to help, every time we save someone, their first words are the same as you. There is really nothing new in ......"

After saying that, Baili Cat himself felt amused and shook his head slightly. Zishang also scratched his hair in embarrassment.

"Hehe! I ...... Belch...... I'm not too good at talking, you have to bear with me!" Zishang said shyly.

"It's okay, we're all straight-to-head people and don't care about that. Baili Daxiong smiled innocently and waved his hand nonchalantly.

Zishang smiled sincerely back to Baili Daxiong.

"By the way, I don't know what your name is, what do you call it?" asked Baili Cat.

"Oh! I'm called a merchant, a tall man, a merchant's merchant!"

"Zi surname, are you a remnant of Yin Shang?" Baili Mao raised his eyebrows, although the Baili family was more inclined to the Dahao Dynasty, they were not hostile to Dayi Shang.

Zishang did not hide the identity of the remnants, and said: "That's right, I was born in Dayi Shang, and I am indeed a remnant of Yin Shang. You won't ......"

Baili Mao knew what he wanted to express, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Oh, we have no hostility towards you, the Baili family has always been neutral, and there is no ill will towards Dayi merchants." ”

Seeing that they were all bold and upright people, Zishang nodded reassuringly.

"Little brother, do you have a table?" asked Baili Lion on the side.

Zishang said blankly: "That, I want to ask...... What is the word in the table?"

It is to take another alias related to the meaning of the original name, call it a word, in order to express its virtue and respect each other, this is the table word, which has appeared in the time of Dashang, but it has not been fully popularized until now. Baili Lion explained.

Baili Hu stood up from the stool, patted Zishang on the shoulder and said: "Oh, don't talk to him, among the eight of us, he likes to pretend to be cold and pretend to be literary and artistic, what is his cousin, it's so bad!"

Zishang glanced at him with disdain and said, "Just now you were dragging yourself to a 'superior literary level', okay!"

"Uh...... I'm really literate! He's actually very bad, and he likes to show off!" Bailihu argued awkwardly.

Zishang could only sneer "hehe", and decided in his heart that this guy who loves to show off must be a Baili Tiger.

Baili Shi frowned and ignored him, his personality is such a cold and silent personality.

In order to alleviate the awkward atmosphere, Zishang asked Baili Lion for advice:

"I'm sorry, I didn't know what to say before, but it feels great, why don't you help me think of one!"

Unexpectedly, Bailishi refused: "No, the words are very important, and it makes more sense to take them yourself!"

"Hmph! There are so many routines, it's boring! Don't pay attention to his businessmen. Baili Hu said disdainfully.

Baili Cat was afraid that the two of them would fight, so he quickly stopped them from talking.

"Okay, okay! Let's not mention this, Zishang, we are going to continue to wander on the land of Shenzhou, what are your plans?"

"Oh, I don't have any plans, I also want to come out and practice! Where are you going?" Zishang thought for a while and said.

"We plan to go to the Dongyi Alliance, but there are many barbarians over there, you are quite young, I'm afraid it's not suitable to go. "Miles Cat spoke out their plan.

"No, no, I'm a half-step Qi Refining Realm martial artist, so I shouldn't be dragging you down. Zishang thought about it for a moment and said his true strength.

When the eight of them heard this, they all stared at him in surprise, and Zishang knew that they didn't believe it, so he used the rudimentary true qi to form a small whirlwind on his palm.

"Hiss~"

Baili Hu gasped, the others also widened their eyes, and the two brothers, Baili Xiong and Erxiong, opened their mouths even wider, staring incredulously at the embryonic true qi in his hands.

“…… How is it possible! How old are you? Just half a step to refine the Qi Realm!" Even Baili Mao lost his usual composure and said in disbelief.

Zishang smiled and said nothing, silently retracting the true qi of the prototype.

"Awesome!Zishang, let's be friends!" Baili Erxiong came over and hugged Zishang's shoulders and said with a smile.

In the end, the sub-merchants joined their team, and the nine of them set off happily, and soon they were alive!

Two or three days later, Zishang and Baili Eight Prodigal Sons had a preliminary understanding of each other.

Baili Eight Prodigal Son, from one of the top ten families, Baili Family, open-minded, trendy, dissatisfied with being bound in the family, eight cousins went out to practice, with the permission of the head of the family Baili Xi, the prescribed time limit of eight years, and now four years have passed.

Among the eight people, Baili Mao is the oldest: twenty-nine years old, and his strength is also the strongest: the late stage of the Qi Refining Quadruple Realm. The two brothers, Baili Daxiong and Erxiong, were the youngest: twenty-four years old, and they had just entered the dual realm of qi refining.

In the past four years, they have experienced many hardships and obstacles: they have crossed the lofty mountains and mountains, but have been attacked by demon beasts on the way, crossed the river and encountered wind and waves, and drifted for dozens of miles in the wind and rain; they have been trapped by bandits in the deep mountains and old forests, and they have fought bloody battles to break the siege......

After four years of training, they have not only increased their knowledge and understanding of society, but also greatly improved their own strength.

When they first arrived, only Baili Cat, Lion, and Tiger were low-level Qi Refining Realm martial artists, but now Baili Cat is already in the late stage of the Qi Refining Quadruple Realm, the peak of the Baili Lion Qi Refining Triple Realm, and the late stage of the Baili Tiger Qi Refining Triple Realm, the Leopard, Eagle, and Crocodile are all at the peak of the middle stage of the Qi Refining Dual Realm.

Eight people have been chivalrous and righteous in the rivers and lakes, and they have helped thousands of people, large and small, and they are also famous.

Their talent and strength are not bad, but they still admire Zishang very much, and at the age of twelve, they have already reached the half-step Qi Refining Realm.

Back then, when they were still in the Baili Family, only two geniuses had reached the half-step Qi Refining Realm at the age of fifteen.

This surprised Zishang a lot, fifteen years old and a half-step Qi Refining Realm! Zilong and Zili are at this level at the same time!

"It seems that the top ten families are really powerful, and they are stronger than the big merchants at that time! Ying Hao is quite capable, he has created such a powerful country in just thirty years!"

Zishang couldn't help but have a new understanding of the top ten families and Yinghao in his heart, and felt more and more the difficulties of reviving the big business.
