31. Hidden Building [108/100] --- compensate for the loss of the lucky bag [8/10]
It wasn't the first time Shen Qiu had come to the Hidden Tower.
When he was in Suzhou, he and the Song beggar went to Yinlou once, and knew that Yinlou had branches everywhere, and Yanjing and Lin'an, the capitals of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, also had their own general numbers.
This is a systematic organization for collecting information on the rivers and lakes, and there are also internal business contacts and news sharing, which can be regarded as a "hundred Xiaosheng of the rivers and lakes".
Of course, in recent years, the beggar gang seems to be planning to intervene in the business of buying and selling this news, and the position of Yinlou in the intelligence community has also been challenged.
But the mysterious upper floor of the hidden building is very smart.
Instead of confronting the beggars, they chose to cooperate.
The beggars supply lower-level intelligence, and the hidden building specializes in high-rise, and the two do not bother, and they also share some important information, which can be regarded as joining forces to make money.
"Room 11 of the Son of Heaven, young man, please."
The guy from the hidden building led Shen Qiu to the front of the room and pushed the door open for him, Shen Qiu entered it and found that the house was almost exactly the same as the one in Suzhou.
There are no windows, just a few candles, and there is a beaded curtain between the shadows.
On the other side of the house, there sat a man whose face he couldn't see clearly, and looking at his figure, he seemed to be a woman.
"What do you have to ask?"
The woman asked.
The voice is hoarse and old, and it should no longer be young.
"I'm here to ask for sin."
Shen Qiupan sat on the cushion and asked very unceremoniously:
"You are hidden in the list of rivers and lakes, before you are on the list, you will always send someone to ask, why did you put me on the list of people in the rivers and lakes without asking me this time?
will also make the news of the birth of the shaking knife known to everyone in the rivers and lakes.
Do you know how much trouble you have caused Shen for this irresponsible behavior? ”
He looked at the man beyond the beaded curtain, and he said:
"Let's not talk about the stinky fish and rotten shrimp that don't measure themselves.
A few days ago, my brother and I stayed in Weifang, and we were almost drugged and almost died.
How are you going to compensate me? ”
Shen Qiu's words were very polite.
Of course, he had a reason to be angry, Yinlou did a very inauthentic thing this time, and without his permission, after the Suzhou War, Shen Qiu was listed on the list.
In the face of Shen Qiu's questioning, the old woman in the hidden building said with a smile:
"Shaoxia is exaggerating, with Shaoxia's martial arts at this time, even if he is drugged, it is not an ordinary person who can get close. Shaoxia intersected with Qiu Buping in Qilu, won five battles and won five battles, saving right and wrong at a critical moment.
In the first battle of Yishui, he assassinated Yeluzong, the general of the Northern Dynasty, among the ten thousand troops.
traveled far away to Liaodong, and did a battle with the master of the Tongwu Sect, which caused a great chaos in the Five Immortals Festival, how could such means be ordinary people?
According to the old man's opinion, in this land of Qilu, there are only ten fingers that can stop the young man. ”
Shen Qiu shook his head.
This answer obviously did not satisfy him.
And the old woman said,
"Besides, after the Suzhou War, I tried all my means to find the traces of the young man, and I was not allowed to ask the young man what he thought.
I can only find someone close to Shaoxia, who is twenty on the list, and I regret the playboy Zhang Lan and Young Master Zhang.
It was he who said that he could be on the list, and I waited until I logged in the name of the young man. ”
"Zhang Lan is someone close to me?"
Shen Qiu laughed out loud angrily, and he said:
"You're not kidding, are you?
Even if you want to find someone close to you, isn't Suzhou Yaoqin?
Isn't the beggar in charge of Song?
Even Lin Huiyin in the land of Xiaoxiang is much more reliable than that playboy!
You obviously did it on purpose, don't say anything that you can't find me, I'm afraid of the crazy Ai Dacha, right? ”
The old woman was robbed by Shen Qiu for a while, but she didn't explain anything.
She said slowly:
"What Shaoxia said is that my Yinlou is just doing some intelligence trading, how dare I go to the Qingyang Demon Monarch Tiger Beard?
But the anger of the young man, I can also understand the old body, so let's wait for the next time the list is remade, how about I remove the information about the young man and the shaking light? ”
"Are you making me laugh?"
Shen Qiu said coldly:
"The news that the light is in my hands has spread to the whole world.
I don't know how many people who covet the world's sharp weapons are staring at my tracks, what can you do if you withdraw the information? It's nothing more than covering your ears and stealing the bell. ”
The old woman spread her hands, very kindly, and helplessly said:
"Then what does Shen Shaoxia want? You name a way, if I can do it, we will do our best. ”
"Good! It's good to be sincere. ”
Shen Qiu put his hands on his knees, and he said to the old woman in front of him:
"First, I know that these people who have been chasing me recently have all gotten news from your Yinlou and the beggar gang, and I will talk about it on the beggar gang.
From now on, you will not be allowed to sell information about my brother's whereabouts and me to others! ”
"It's not difficult."
The old woman nodded and said:
"The hidden building should be down."
"Second, these days, someone has bought information about my whereabouts from you Yinlou and gave me the list!"
Shen Qiu said:
"It is also necessary to attach their information, the location of the sect, the situation of the sect, whether they are evil, whether they are decent, and so on."
"This..."
The old woman was a little embarrassed, and she said:
"Yinlou has been doing business for more than 100 years, but there is no such rule, Shaoxia, we are businessmen, and the rules must not be messed up."
"Didn't you provoke this?"
Shen Qiu said softly:
"Allow them to buy and murder me, and not allow me to come to the door and fight back? How can there be such a truth in the world...
Besides, you are open for business in the hidden building, since they can buy my information, why can't I buy theirs?
Since you want to talk about the rules, then let's follow the rules.
Name the number, and I'll give the money. ”
The old woman hesitated.
She couldn't decide, so she reached out and wrote something down, put it in the tube at hand, and in a short time a reply was thrown out of another tube.
The old woman took it in her hand, looked at it, and then breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Shen Qiu:
"It's okay, when the young man leaves, he takes the information at the counter. As for the money, even if my hidden building is not right first, this time I will give Shaoxia a discount.
The young man can give a hundred taels of silver. ”
One hundred taels...
This money can't buy anything in the hidden building, it's completely the price of cabbage, and the sincerity is indeed very strong.
Shen Qiu's face showed a slight look of satisfaction.
"Finally, I have a few more questions to ask."
Shen Qiumo rubbed his chin, closed his eyes and thought for a moment, and asked:
"Do you know the location of Penglai?"
"Shaoxia laughed, such overseas secret places are also immortal cultivation sects, mysterious and tight, and my hidden building is not so powerful."
The old woman smiled and said:
"Shaoxia, let's change the question."
"Yes, it's a bit of a bummer for you."
Shen Qiu nodded, and he asked again:
"Since March this year, have there been major events in the rivers and lakes?"
"Yes."
The old woman picked up a booklet in front of her, turned a few pages, and said:
"In the past three months, the biggest thing in the rivers and lakes is naturally the fall of the master of the heavenly list.
It can be said that the rivers and lakes have been shaken, this is the first time in nearly ten years that the people of the Tianbang have fallen, and the land of Qilu has also become chaotic.
But in this matter, Shaoxia was involved in the whole process, so naturally he didn't need to talk too much. TV debut
The old man told the young man about other things. ”
Shen Qiu listened quietly, and heard the old woman say clearly:
"The two factions of good and evil, since the Suzhou War, have been tense.
Decency prevails, under the call of the director of the Wulin League, decent people from the south of the Yangtze River and the Central Plains gather in Xiaoxiang and Xianghu, and even set foot in Jiangxi and Guangzhou.
After several wars, the Demon Cult forces were completely driven out of the land of Xiaoxiang.
But in Yungui, Miaojiang, the Western Regions, and Guanzhong, there are all demon sect forces gathered, probably brewing a counterattack.
However, with Ren Hao's hero personally sitting in Xiaoxiang, and Taiyue Chunyangzi pressing the formation, the Demon Sect counterattacked this time, and there were great signs of cross-bowing and not firing arrows.
According to my guess, in the next few years, the pattern of good and evil will maintain the status quo.
But there are also conflicts and crises that break out, and once the Demon Sect makes a desperate bet, the entire Jianghu and even the world are afraid that it will be troublesome from now on. ”
"Hmm."
Shen Qiu nodded, and he said:
"Since you are fighting in the land of Xiaoxiang, then the Xiaoxiang Sword Gate will naturally also participate, and the Xiaoxiang heroine Lin Huiyin has a brilliant record?"
The old woman flipped through the booklet again, nodded and said:
"Naturally, there is.
That Lin Huiyin Woman, who got the empowerment of the head of the Sword Gate, Lin Yundong Woman, and had a superb swordsmanship, in the middle of the two months of this war, Lin Woman Xia killed an elder of the Five Elements Gate, and a Venerable Outer Gate of the Ten Thousand Poisons Gate.
He also led the disciples of the Sword Sect to break through the tricks of the Ten Thousand Poison Gate several times, and also defeated the demon soldiers who came to support the Seven Peerless Sects.
On the seventh day of the first month of last month, Lin Huiyin fought again with the Five Elements Gate Qu Evil in Jingmen, and Lin Huiyin's heroine was slightly worse, but she also got out safely, so the ranking on the list of rivers and lakes did not change.
It's just that it can use the Xiaoxiang Echo Sword to stab the fish intestines, which makes the ranking of that ancient sword on the weapon spectrum also greatly rise. ”
At this point, the old woman paused.
She looked at Shen Qiu and said meaningfully:
"Shaoxia doesn't know, this Jianghu weapon spectrum is also changed in March, although Shaoxia has done a lot of big things, but the Seven Stars have fallen into the hands of Shaoxia, and there is no outstanding record.
If it goes on like this, wait until the next weapon spectrum remake.
Shake the light treasure knife, I'm afraid I'm about to fall out of the ranking of the Supreme Twelve. ”
"It's better if it's gone."
Shen Qiu said casually:
"You don't have to provoke me, I don't like a lot of things, so naturally I won't fight with the Jianghu people for any ranking.
Go on, what's the other big thing to keep watching? ”
"The next thing is all a trivial matter, after all, the center of gravity of the rivers and lakes is now on Xiaoxiang's side."
The old woman flipped through the booklet and said to Shen Qiu:
"But outside the rivers and lakes, there are big things that will happen.
A few days ago, the envoys of the Mongol tribes arrived in Yanjing to discuss the matter of marriage with the royal family of the Northern Dynasty, but the matter was delayed because the national teacher was happy to suddenly retreat.
Once the Mongolian tent is connected with the Northern Dynasties, the Southern Dynasties are afraid that they will be in danger. ”
Hearing this, Shen Qiu blinked.
He remembered the eldest princess Yeluwan who he had met in Liaodong, but she was only eighteen or nineteen years old, but she was about to be happily sent to kiss?
It still has to be sent to a remote place like Mongolia, which is really a shame.
"The eldest princess Yeluwan, the person she wants to marry is the Great Khan of Mongolia?"
Shen Qiu asked.
The old woman shook her head, and said:
"The Great Khan of Yanji died as early as the winter solstice last year, and the Mongol Great Horde was also a sign of chaos at this time, and now the heir to the Great Horde is a fourteen-year-old child, who is not recognized by all the tribes.
This time he married the Northern Dynasty, I am afraid that he also wanted to use the military strength of the Northern Dynasty to unify the Mongolian tribes, but this time the peace was not made by the Mongolian side to take the initiative to seek the eldest princess of the Northern Dynasty, but by the Northern Dynasty. ”
The old woman sighed and said:
"The Northern Dynasty doesn't want to wait anymore.
That national teacher wants to annex the world, and the situation in this martial arts may be settled soon, but unfortunately, the people in the martial arts cannot affect the general trend of the world.
War is coming. ”
Shen Qiu ignored this sigh, what he thought in his heart was that a fourteen-year-old child, marrying a nineteen-year-old princess, is it considered a child driving a big car?
Well, I don't think so.
"Is there anything else Shaoxia has to ask?"
Seeing that Shen Qiu didn't speak, the old woman took the initiative to ask.
Shen Qiu shook his head, saying that he had nothing more to ask.
He actually has a lot of questions, but he probably can't get answers in the hidden building.
The detailed secrets about the Demon Sect on the Hidden Building's side can only be asked by going to the general number, and there is a little less information that can be obtained in this semicolon.
He stood up and wanted to leave, but when he turned around, he remembered something again, and asked:
"That sword monarch Liu Zhuoran, can he participate in the Xiaoxiang war?"
"Yes."
The old woman said:
"The Sword Monarch shined in this battle, ranking first in the land list, holding the Ling Xuan Sword, facing the Five Elements Sect Elder Chiyun, and won once.
also fought viciously with Yang Beihan, the elder of the Seven Peerless Sects, which was a draw, and finally held a sword for him when Ren Hao expelled the old man with ten thousand poisons.
In recent months, countless evil people of the Demon Sect have died under the sword of Ling Xu, and of course, there are also several decent heroes who have deceived the world and done evil things by the Sword Monarch.
According to my Yinlou estimate, in another five years, the Sword Monarch will be able to enter the heavenly list. ”
"Really?"
Shen Qiu thought in his mind as he walked out.
With the monstrous hatred of the demon girl Shen Lan, coupled with her methods, if this sword monarch Liu Zhuoran is unlucky, I am afraid that there will be no more five years to use.
But think about it carefully, although the Sword Monarch acts squarely and has his own set of rules, he is still a person from Penglai after all, and he is still a disciple of the Eastern Spirit Monarch.
If Shen Lan can succeed in assassinating this time, it will not hurt Shen Qiu and Xiao Tie.
Let's talk about Dong Lingjun again...
I don't know if he's dead or if he's gone back to Penglai.
With this kind of thinking, Shen Qiu walked down the stairs, and after leaving the well-soundproofed wing, Shen Qiu heard the sound of blades colliding and screaming from the outside world.
He quickened his pace, descended to the first floor, and looked out.
On the long street outside the hidden building, Xiao Tie was holding a giant que, fighting hard with a man holding two knives, and behind Xiao Tie, more than a dozen people had fallen horizontally.
Xiao Tie didn't take their lives according to Shen Qiu's orders, but just broke his hands and feet and abolished his martial arts.
And on that long street, there are no ordinary people, only some Qilu people holding swords are noisy.
Looking at their appearance, it seems that they hate Xiao Tie very much.
And the man who fought against Xiao Tie has real skills.
He was wearing a blue robe, with two swords in his hands, one long and one short, and his footwork was exquisite, moving quickly between square inches, so that Xiao Tie's giant heavy sword could not keep up with the speed of his movement.
And every time he got close, the long and short knives would leave two wounds of different depths on Xiao Tie's body, forcing Xiao Tie to swing his heavy sword horizontally and force the knife-wielder to retreat.
"You're in your next life, at such a young age, and you're acting so fiercely!"
When the man saw Juque attacking, he turned over and struck a light blow on the heavy sword, like a harrier turning over, and landed outside the battle circle.
His breath was steady, not in a hurry, and a pair of Danfeng eyes stared at Xiao Tie, who was panting with a heavy sword in front of him.
He snapped:
"Do you know that when you cut down with this sword, what you cut is the life of a warrior! These dozen or so people were abolished by you, how should you let them live in the future?
Why do you want to do this? ”
Xiao Tie didn't talk, he was covered in blood and knew that there was a strong enemy in front of him, so he mustered up the dragon and tiger battle spirit, and wanted to step forward again.
"Wow"
With a knife roar, I saw the cold light light on, and the greedy wolf knife came from behind, inserted at the foot of the small iron, and entered the ground one foot, the cold air was on the blade, and the red line bell hung on the greedy wolf swallowing the moon knife.
Seeing this, Xiao Tie took a step back.
Behind him, Shen Qiu strolled out of the hidden building, and with a snap of his hand, under the traction of the gong's skillful hand, the Jianghu guest who was lying at his feet and wailing was caught in the palm of his hand.
"Click"
With a soft sound, his neck broke, and his life was broken.
On the long street, it was like a cold wind blowing, and for a while, the saber was tense.
"Xiao Tie, come back...
Let the eldest brother come and meet him. ”
