Chapter 125: Raven Nine
Wuqing's business was in full swing, and even the sea trade was put on the agenda, after the last successful sea trial, Wuqing was anxious to let Zhu Fugui and other ten captains set sail in ten days, first to Silla, to open up Silla's trade routes.
So Wu Qing issued an order, ordering all tea-producing areas to transport tea to Shangyuan County, and began to purchase silk. Wine is not able to trade by sea, because the supply of wine in wine workshops is in short supply, restaurants have opened one after another, and the origin of Shangyuan County alone is not enough. Wuqing can't get out of Runzhou, Xu Xiaoying wants to take care of Shangyuan County's business, and she is really weak.
Early this morning, Wu Qing was practicing spearmanship hard, since the successful cultivation of the seventh style of "Hundred Birds and Phoenix Spear" a month ago, Wu Qing's confidence has soared, and the amount of his body has also broken through to a thousand catties, which he didn't expect, and he can feel that the warm current in the dantian is quite surging, which is a sign of internal strength Xiaocheng!
"Click!"
Wu Qing pierced the stake with a shot, Wu Yidao shouted good, and said: "Childe's body now exceeds a thousand catties, and his spearmanship is so wonderful, in today's world, there are less than fifty people who can defeat Childe!" ”
In other words, that is, in the world ranking, he is only the fiftieth? Although Wu Qing was a little dissatisfied on his face, he was really ecstatic in his heart, in his previous life, because he often ate, drank, gambled, smoked, drunk, and played games on the Internet, his body was very poor, and he was out of breath when he climbed the seventh floor, let alone fighting, and now there are only forty-nine people who are better than him in the whole world! If you cultivate to the eighth form, how many people are there?
Wu Qing put away the gun, then put the big iron gun back on the weapon rack, and said, "Uncle, you haven't praised me for a long time, what's wrong with this today?" ”
Wu Yidao was a little embarrassed and said, "Son, my subordinates have traveled to Jiangnan. Acquaintance with a person, this person is righteous and squandering money, the day before yesterday in Yuhang, he escaped, fled here, I didn't expect to be met by me, this person's swordsmanship is extremely high, he can be regarded as one of the best kendo masters, if the son can take him in, he will be grateful to Dade. Death to repay the son! ”
Wu Qing was stunned for a moment, Wu Yidao never recommended people in the rivers and lakes to himself, but today is abnormal, so he said: "What is this person's name and what did he do?" ”
Wu Yidao said: "This person's surname is Zhang. Famous crow nine, because passing by Yuhang. I saw a woman forced by several people. In a fit of rage, he killed those people and was wanted by the government. ”
Wu Qing was stunned for a moment, at such a juncture, to be honest, he was a little reluctant to take him in, but he thought that this person was also a chivalrous person. In addition, the swordsmanship is superb, and I can't help but think about it, although there are thirty guards around me now (the other seventeen people were fished out of the prison by Wu Qing with silver), but after all, they were obtained by force and means in the middle of the road. Loyalty is yet to be tested.
Wu Qing walked into the room, Wu Yidao followed silently behind him, he knew that Wu Qing needed to consider, weigh the pros and cons before deciding, which was in line with Gongzi's consistent practice.
At this time, Qiu Ju had already prepared breakfast, fried eggs, milk, and steamed buns, and while eating them, Wu Qing thought that if he didn't take them in, it was estimated that it wouldn't be long before he would either starve to death or be arrested, and even go to the underworld from now on.
After rinsing his mouth, Wu Qing said, "That's it, take him to the study!" ”
Wu Yidao smiled, and Gongzi asked him to take it to the study, which meant that he had already succeeded halfway, so he said goodbye and left the house and went to find Ya Jiu.
Wuqing could not be idle, and Li Fengxiao, a disciple of Chang'an, wrote a letter to ask when the new book would come out, and now he and his disciples have written some, but the effect is not ideal. The people of Chang'an still like to listen to what Wu Qing wrote, and now storytellers are all over Chang'an, all of them take Wu Qing as their teacher, and the people who listen to the book also want to ask whose book it is, and when they hear that it is not Wu Qing's, they will leave most of it. Wu Qing's prestige is getting higher and higher. Li Fengxiao strongly begged Wu Qing to take the time to write a new work, but Wu Qing had no choice but to reply, and the new book could be completed within a year.
Wu Qing closed the "Tang Dynasty Western Regions", and then spread out the bamboo paper, pressed it with a paperweight, Qiu Ju polished the ink in a timely manner, Wu Qing raised his head and smiled, and wrote the three big words "Journey to the West" on the paper!
Qiu Ju now knew most of the words, and asked strangely, "Childe, is this the name of the new book?" ”
Wu Qing said with a smile: "In the past few days, after reading "The Legend of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty", I suddenly felt in my heart, and I wanted to write down what I thought in my heart, but it is not necessary to make it into a book? Go to the gate of the house and wait, and if you bring people with a sword, bring them here! ”
Qiu Ju agreed, then retreated, came to the door, and turned around and glanced at Wu Qing deeply. Now she is twenty years old, for a girl, it is early to get married, but she is the slave of the son, the son did not ask her to marry, she can only follow the son until the son is disgusted and expelled, maybe when she is old, she should leave the child. With a sigh, he turned and left.
Wu Qing paused, sighed, and continued to write "Journey to the West", only to see that the paper wrote: "Chaos is not divided into heaven and earth, and no one sees it." Since Pangu broke Hongmeng, it has opened up from Ziqing to distinguish turbidity. Covering the masses of beings to look up to benevolence, inventing all things to be good. If you want to know the Yuan Gong of the Creation Society, you must watch the Journey to the West. ”
"The number of heaven and earth is one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred years old"
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the study, and Wu Qing could tell that this was the voice of three people, the one with light steps was Qiu Ju, and the other person was walking on foot with Wu Yidao, so there was one person left, it should be that Crow Jiu!
After a while, the three of them entered the study, and Qiu Ju leaned over and said, "Childe, those two are here." ”
Wu Yidao arched his hand and said: "My subordinates have seen Gongzi." ”
"Crow Nine has seen Childe!" The sound is loud and magnetic.
Wu Qing looked up, only to see that this person was in his forties, with long hair scattered, dressed as a walker, Wu Qing stood up, and then stepped forward, helped up this middle-aged man named Ya Jiu, and said: "Uncle, please get up, you don't have to be so polite!" ”
Crow Jiu's eyebrows bent, stretched slightly, and said, "Thank you, Childe, Childe can call under Crow Jiu." ”
Wu Qing hummed, looked at Ya Jiu carefully, there was a cinnabar birthmark on the corner of Ya Jiu's left eye, covered by hair, looming, Wu Qing frowned, if you let this person follow you, this cinnabar mark is too obvious, and it is easy to be recognized by the government. But now he lacks a strong martial artist like Ya Jiu.
In an instant, Wu Qing slapped Ya Jiu's chest, Ya Jiu didn't dodge at all, he snorted, but his body didn't move at all. Sure enough, the martial arts are strong and the basic skills are solid.
Wu Qing showed a satisfied smile, just now, but with ninety percent of his strength, Crow Nine didn't move. So he said, "Crow Jiu, stay by my side from now on!" ”
Crow Jiu said awe-inspiringly: "I am willing to lead the horse for the son, and I am unswerving!" ”
Wu Qing patted Ya Jiu's sturdy shoulder and said with a smile: "Loyalty, not by mouth, over time, I hope you don't let me down, remember today's oath!" Your tombstone will have my name on it! ”
When Ya Jiu heard such words, he secretly made up his mind, and then arched his hand and said, "My subordinates will not let my son down." ”
Wu Qing pondered for a moment and said, "That's it, Qiu Ju, tell the housekeeper and arrange for Ya Jiu to stay." As for the rest, we'll talk about that later. ”
Ya Jiu thanked him, and then walked out with Qiu Ju.
Wu Qing looked at Wu Yidao and said, "I want to let Crow Nine teach those twenty registered disciples, what do you say?" ”
Wu Yidao said: "Actually, Childe wants to take the martial arts of Crow Nine in the school, and he is afraid of losing to Crow Jiu, so that's why it's like this!" ”
Wu Qing was speechless for a while, is this what his subordinates should say, but for Wu Yidao, he doesn't have the heart to educate, and after years of birth and death, he trusts Wu Yidao very much.
Just when the two were talking about Yajiu, Lu Zhaolin, the county commander of Shangyuan County, sat in a sedan chair and came outside the Wu Mansion.
His own servant told Wu Qing, and Wu Qing hurriedly greeted him and invited him into the lobby.
Lu Zhaolin looked at Wu Qing with a smile, and then unhurriedly took out a yellow silk from his sleeve, handed it to Wu Qing, and said, "This is given to you by the emperor!" ”
Wu Qing was stunned for a moment, took the yellow silk, unfolded it, and instantly showed a smile on his face, and said: "County Order, you have to drink in the mansion today, you are my nobleman!" ”
Lu Zhaolin laughed, stroked his skinny hand, and said: "Today, Lu sacrificed his life to accompany the gentleman, and in Lu's lifetime, I must drink more of your wine, so as not to be ruined by you!" ”
Wu Qing laughed, took Lu Zhaolin's hand, and walked towards the pavilion. (To be continued......)
