Chapter 74: No
"I never said that I was amazing, compared to Her Royal Highness the Princess, I really didn't want to mention it. ”
Ji Fanze's face was still calm, his smile remained unchanged, and he said: "Before I came out to practice, a friend from Medicine Valley once warned me, saying that there are countless capable people in the world, and there are many real geniuses, so don't be too conceited. By the way, my friend may also know you, she is a disciple of Yaogu, named Li Caihe. ”
"Li Caihe?"
"Li Caihe is your friend?"
Qiao Xingbang and Qiao Yun'er were both extremely surprised, of course they knew and seen Li Caihe, and they knew that Li Caihe was the heir of the Medicine Valley Lord.
When it comes to the dignity of their status, even if they are princes and princesses, they are much worse than Li Caihe.
When it comes to cultivation talents, they can't be compared to Li Caihe at all, although they are also very good.
They didn't dare to say that they were Li Caihe's friends, and Li Caihe never regarded them as friends, but the person in front of them claimed to be Li Caihe's friend, what is the origin of this person?
At this time, the brother and sister suddenly felt that Fang Cai's words sounded very humble, but they also obviously had a-for-tat meaning.
"Come, Brother Pingfan, let's have another drink. ”
Qiao Xingbang raised his glass, relieving the awkward atmosphere in the room.
After taking a drink, he also added with a smile: "As we all know, the relationship between our Miaoxiang royal family and the medicine valley is extraordinary, the ordinary brother is not only the deacon of the medicine valley, but also the friend of the Caihe girl, and of course the friend of our Miaoxiang royal family, today we are destined to gather here, we must drink a few more cups!"
After that, Qiao Xingbang never mentioned inviting Ji Fan to join the Miaoxiang royal family, but just drank with Ji Fan.
When drinking, he asked Ji Fan's master, but Ji Fan's answer was always very vague, and he didn't want to delve into it.
Qiao Xingbang and Qiao Yun'er both felt that Ji Fan's flickering words were not deliberately covering up anything, but a manifestation of weakness.
Since it was a small talk, Qiao Xingbang would naturally ask Ji Fan about his future plans, and Ji Fan said that he just wanted to travel more.
Towards the end of the banquet, Ji Fan suddenly asked, "Your Royal Highness, do you know anything about Tao Gongming?"
"Tao Gongming?"
Qiao Xingbang thought for a while and said, "The person Brother Ordinary is referring to is not the law enforcement officer of the kingdom who broke the law and was beheaded back then?"
"Exactly. ”
Ji Fan nodded, the reason why he asked this question was to find out if Tao Yuyan was lying.
"I know a little about the man, but I was young when he was beheaded, and I only saw about him in the case file. ”
After Qiao Xingbang paused, he said: "In this matter, my father, who had just ascended the throne at that time, was not very skilled and meticulous in handling political affairs, so he listened to the villain's slander and sentenced him to death, but in fact he was framed by a traitor. ”
In the matter of Tao Gongming, although King Miaoxiang mishandled it, Ji Fan actually admired Miaoxiang Kingdom, because this king dared to face up to his mistakes, and dared to publicize his mistakes, and did not deliberately hide the truth for the sake of his own reputation.
"Does Your Highness know that in addition to a son, Tao Gongming also has a daughter?"
Ji Fan asked again.
"I don't know. ”
Qiao Xingbang shook his head and said: "I only know that my father took into account that Tao Gongming had a lot of credit for the kingdom, so he didn't kill his son, after realizing the many doubts in this case, my father carefully investigated, and finally restored his reputation, and also found a good official position for his son." ”
"Oh?"
Ji Fan's eyes lit up and asked, "Tao Gongming's son should still be alive, right?"
"Well, it's still there, and I'm currently serving in the Law Department of Wangcheng. ”
Qiao Xingbang nodded first, and then asked, "Is Brother Pingfan related to Tao Gongming?"
"I don't have any origins, I just know a girl who claims to be Tao Gongming's daughter. ”
Ji Fan pondered for a moment, and then said: "In the future, I can't say that I will go to Miaoxiang Wangcheng and enjoy the scenery of Wangcheng, it is said that Miaoxiang Wangcheng is very beautiful." ”
"Haha, welcome, welcome. ”
Qiao Xingbang said politely: "At that time, the ordinary brother must be informed, so that I can do my best to be a landlord." ”
"Definitely. ”
People are so gracious, of course Ji Fan can't say no directly.
The four of them ended the banquet and left the box, and when Qiao Xingbang settled the bill, they took Qiao Yun'er and the old woman who didn't say a word and left the restaurant, obviously the three of them didn't live in this small restaurant that was not very high-end.
Out of the restaurant, Qiao Xingbang and the three of them got into a luxurious carriage.
"Brother Wang, I think that guy is bragging about what kind of identity Li Caihe has, how can he have such a friend?"
When the carriage began to move, Qiao Yun'er said with doubts: "If he is Li Caihe's friend, he won't worry about the two Star Pills, and there are the most and most complete Star Pills in the Medicine Valley in the whole world." ”
"Not necessarily. ”
Qiao Xingbang's fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the seat, and said, "Although Miss Caihe has very few friends, she has always been spontaneous, and it is possible to make any kind of friends. ”
"Aunt Rong, what do you think?"
Qiao Yun'er looked at the old woman sitting in front of her again.
"This son has a strange aura on his body, and I also feel that he has star soul fluctuations, presumably he is a genius who has awakened the star soul, and his cultivation qualifications are not worse than yours. ”
The old woman who was called Aunt Rong said unhurriedly: "If he really has a master, I'm afraid he is not very clever, otherwise, this son will not be so much worse than you in cultivation at this age." ”
"I even awakened the star soul!"
Qiao Yun'er was slightly surprised and surprised.
"Monks with the same qualifications will also reflect different cultivation speeds for various reasons, after all, we have the full cultivation of the royal family, so it is natural that we will be stronger. ”
Qiao Xingbang echoed the old woman, and then sighed: "It's a pity that we are not real geniuses, compared to Li Caihe, we are even worse than 108,000 miles. ”
"Don't compare with her, she's a demon!"
Qiao Yun'er tasted authentic.
"Regarding that kid just now, I don't think his body should be too different except for the need to replenish his vitality. ”
Aunt Rong hesitated for a moment, then interjected: "He is faintly overflowing with two breaths of ice and fire, but those two breaths not only do not conflict with each other, but live in harmony very peacefully. ”
"Won't it?"
Qiao Yun'er frowned and said, "Everyone knows that ice and fire are incompatible, how can ice and fire be perfectly integrated?"
"It is estimated that he has lost a lot of vitality, which is the price he paid for making ice and fire merge. ”
Aunt Rong was also puzzled, guessed first, and then said puzzledly: "But even so, how can he let ice and fire merge?"
"That's right, he's just a low-level monk, how can he solve a problem that even the Lord of the Star Palace can't solve?"
Qiao Xingbang followed.
"The world is so big, there are no surprises. ”
Aunt Rong said indifferently: "It's not that the strong can't solve the problem, and the weak must not be able to solve it." ”
"Anyway, we didn't come out this time just to recruit talents for the royal family. ”
Qiao Yun'er waved her arm and said, "Our more important task is to knock and investigate the county guard of Hedong County, let's talk about this matter!"
"We've been here for almost ten days, and the county guard of Hedong must have known about it, but he didn't react at all, obviously disobedient. ”
Qiao Xingbang's face was solemn.
......
After sending Qiao Xingbang and the three of them away, Ji Fan returned to his residence, crossed his knees on the bed, and held a piece of lower-grade star crystal in each hand to cultivate.
At dawn the next day, after breakfast, he went to the square at the gate of the city lord's mansion again.
Many people recognized him, but few would bother him.
He had only been watching the battle for an hour, and when he learned that his next fight would not take place until the afternoon, he left the square.
Not long after, he came to the door of a pharmacy called "Miao Xiang Pharmacy".
Miaoxiang Pharmacy, like Tianbao Zhai, is a top trading house in the entire human world, the difference is that it sells medicinal herbs and finished Xingdan, and its background power is Medicine Valley.
The Xing Dan in the Miaoxiang Medicine Store are all produced by the Medicine Valley, and they are the most reassuring to the monks in terms of quality.
Ji Fan came here, firstly, to purchase Xingdan, and secondly, he had something to investigate.
After entering this wonderful fragrance medicine store, he went directly to the counter.
The shopkeeper was actually a middle-aged woman, and when she saw Ji Fan coming, she asked politely, "What do you want to buy?"
"One medium-grade supplement Yuan Xingdan, and three lower-grade pregnant Mars pills. ”
Ji Fan explained his intentions.
"The Replenishing Yuan Xing Pill has the effect of replenishing the essence of life, and it is a treasure that extends life, and a medium-grade Replenishing Yuan Xing Pill requires three hundred medium-grade Star Crystals. ”
The woman's shopkeeper said slowly: "The Pregnant Mars Pill is useful for helping fire cultivators to enhance the fire spirit root in their bodies, and three lower grade Pregnant Mars Pills require one hundred and eighty medium-grade star crystals. ”
"There are enough star crystals here. ”
Ji Fan first put a storage bag on the counter, then showed his identity jade card, and said with a smile: "I am the deacon of our Medicine Valley Foreign Affairs Hall, and I should be able to enjoy the discount." ”
The woman's shopkeeper looked at Ji Fan's identity jade plate seriously, and after a while, she said curiously: "Your identity jade plate is indeed from the Medicine Valley, but the method of marking the identity is not commonly used, dare to ask which big man gave you this jade plate?"
"It's Li Caihe. ”
Ji Fan replied truthfully.
No wonder this technique is not skillful, and the marking is not coherent in one go. ”
The woman returned the identity jade plate, and said in a low voice: "Since Miss Caihe can give you this identity jade plate, she must have some intersection with you, you may not know that she is in this city now." ”
"Huh?"
Ji Fan was surprised.
"You came to buy these two Star Pills, it should be the ordinary genius who shined in the competition yesterday, right?"
The woman asked softly.
"Exactly. ”
Ji Fan nodded, and asked again, "Where is Miss Caihe at this time?"
"It should be in the city lord's mansion, and she will come here to rest in the evening. ”
The woman's shopkeeper replied first, and then said, "Do you want to wait for Miss Caihe to come back before buying Xingdan?" Maybe she can give you a bigger discount, or even not charge you Xingjing." "Peerless Star Soul
