Chapter 42: Being Taken Advantage of
Qianyang City is located in the northwest direction of Dinghai Prefecture, and further west is Qingshi Mountain, the west of Qingshi Mountain, is Yunzhou, one of the 21 states of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Qianyang City has a total population of 400,000, and if you add the surrounding more than 20 cities and towns and hundreds of villages, it has a population of about 7.8 million.
Qianyang City is divided into an inner city and an outer city, except for the relatively low city wall located on the side of the Qingqiu faction, the other three walls are towering.
It is located in the center of Dinghai Prefecture, located in the plain, except for the bluestone mountain, there is no obstruction on the other side, so the city wall is built relatively high.
On the side of Qingshi Mountain, even the army was only a few dozen people stationed, after all, only the disciples of the Qingqiu Sect would go here.
The group walked towards the west gate of Qianyang City, Zhu Qing and Fang Yan Xiao Feng followed the female disciple, Zhu Qing and a female disciple chatted hotly, full of strange things and strange things in the rivers and lakes, which made the other party laugh.
Fang Yan was silent, his strong body nearly two meters tall, but his face showed a hint of crampedness.
As for Xiao Feng, this young man with the same pronunciation as Xiao Feng's name does not have a trace of heroic atmosphere, and he twists like a little girl.
Su Ming couldn't help but be disappointed when he saw the performance of the two, why are you so nervous when you meet a female disciple? Haven't seen a woman before?
Su Ming shook his head, and a voice sounded next to him, "Senior Brother Su, where were you from before?" ”
The one who spoke was a twenty-two or three-year-old woman, her name was Zhou Yun, her face was delicate, her complexion was fair, she was tall, wearing a red shirt, and her figure was sexy. At this time, the body was close to Su Ming's body, and the plump chest was tightly attached to Su Ming's arm, which looked a little too close.
Su Ming said a little unnaturally: "I am from Liuhe Town, just a hundred miles east of Qianyang City. ”
This town does exist, it is a town that Su Ming specially inquired about in order not to be suspected of identity, it is far away from Qianyang City, and it is located in the mountains, and few people from the outer disciples know about it.
Hearing Su Ming's words, another female disciple on the left side spoke, "Senior Brother Su, haven't you really practiced martial arts before?" ”
Many people were a little puzzled about Su Ming, his cultivation advanced so quickly, did he practice martial arts before.
This female disciple's name is Xu Yan, she is petite, has a baby face, and her snow-white skin can be broken by blowing, and she looks like a porcelain doll.
Su Ming replied, "No, I have never practiced martial arts before. ”
Zhou Yun immediately posted it and said with a smile: "Ah, Senior Brother Su is really a genius." ”
Seeing that Zhou Yun took advantage of this opportunity to take advantage of himself, Su Ming's face turned dark, Nima, he met a female hooligan.
The group continued to move forward, and there were still more than ten miles to Qianyang City, and on the way, they could see the convoy of vegetables rushing towards the Qingqiu faction, Su Ming was a little curious, Zhou Yun said with a smile: "Senior Brother Su is coming out for the first time?" This is our Qingqiu faction's convoy, and tens of thousands of catties of grain and vegetables will be delivered to the Qingqiu faction every day. ”
Su Ming nodded, and saw that there were many farmlands on both sides of the road, and many farmers were cultivating in them.
Xu Yan said in a timely manner: "These farmlands are also the industry of our Qingqiu faction, these farmers are all hired by our Qingqiu faction to help with farming, and the grain produced is sent to the workshop, some of them are processed and sold, and some of them are sent back to the city. ”
Su Ming's eyes were a little shocked when he saw the farmland around him that stretched far away, just these farmlands could already support the operation of the Qingqiu Sect.
There were not too many people on the road, and the group was not slow, and it took more than an hour to come to the outside of Qianyang City.
The city walls here are low, and there are few soldiers in charge of guarding, and it is not only the soldiers of Qianyang City who are guarding the city, but also the disciples of the Qingqiu faction, which are on both sides.
Su Ming followed Zhu Qing and Zhou Yun into Qianyang City, and Zhu Qing asked curiously, "By the way, what are you going to do in the city this time?" ”
Zhou Yun said with a smile: "Let's go buy some rouge gouache and clothes, then buy a few novels, and the new "Legend of Jianghu", and then go to the six doors for the master to receive the list of people and the list of people in the three lists." ”
"Legend of Jianghu" is a monthly book issued by the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which records the famous warriors and major events in the Great Zhou Dynasty during this month, the competitions of various sects, the grand competitions of martial arts, and the introduction of famous warriors of various sects.
Many warriors like to buy one, but it is too expensive, twenty taels of silver a piece, enough for a family of four in this world to eat for half a year.
As for the three lists, it refers to the three lists released by the six doors, the heaven and earth lists.
The record on the heavenly list is the world's famous Zhou Tianjing powerhouse, and he is the strongest combat power in the mainland, but this list has not changed its ranking for half a year.
The records on the land list are innate powerhouses, only the top 100, most of them are innate martial artists above the fifth level, and no one in the Qingqiu faction has been able to make it to the ground list in the past hundred years.
As for the list of people, it is the ranking of the combat power of the acquired realm, and it is also a hundred places, all of them are tenfold martial artists and half-step innate martial artists of the day after tomorrow, and the age limit is before the age of forty.
The price of the list is ten taels per one, and the dream of many martial artists is to enter the list and be famous all over the world.
Su Ming yearns to be a part of these lists, but now he is only the sixth self of the day after tomorrow, and there is still a long way to go.
When Zhu Qing learned of Zhou Yun's plan, he hurriedly said, "Then let's go with you, so that we can help you carry some things, so as not to tire you." At noon, let's go to Fuguiju, and Senior Brother Su will have a treat. ”
Zhu Qing's words are completely sycophants, for these disciples of the Inner Gate Furong Hall, which one is not a martial artist above the fifth level of the day after tomorrow? Zhou Yun is still a sevenfold martial artist who has opened up the pulse, and he can be ranked in the top ten among all the disciples of the entire sect.
The acquired five-fold martial artist has the power of a thousand catties with one hand, and the seven-fold martial artist can hold up two or three thousand catties of water tank with one hand, and he can't even lift things.
However, Zhou Yun still agreed, grabbed Su Ming's hand with a smile, and said, "Okay, since it is Senior Brother Su's treat, then we naturally can't refuse." ”
Seeing Zhou Yun agree, Zhu Qing's face was overjoyed, and Fang Yan and Xiao Feng were about to cry with excitement.
Only Su Ming's face turned dark, pulled Zhu Qing over, and asked in a low voice, "What is my treat?" I didn't have much money with me. ”
Zhu Qing patted his pocket and said, "Don't worry, I have the money, and I'll pay the bill when the time comes." You should do your brother a favor and solve your brother's lifelong affairs, and your brother will give you a good sword. ”
Su Ming's face softened slightly, glared at Zhu Qing, and said through gritted teeth: "Just this once." ”
Zhu Qing smiled and said, "Thank you, junior brother, senior brother owes you a favor." ”
After saying this, Zhu Qing squeezed into the female disciples and chatted with them.
Su Ming followed behind, Zhou Yun waved with a smile and shouted, "Senior brother, what are you doing?" Hurry up and keep up. ”
Su Ming had no choice but to walk a few steps faster to keep up with the crowd.
Zhou Yun immediately leaned in, stretched out his hand and pinched Su Ming's arm, and said in surprise: "Yo, junior brother still has muscles?" ”
"I touch, I touch." Several senior sisters rushed up.
Su Ming's face became darker and darker, for the sake of the big sword in his heart, we were eaten tofu once.
