Chapter 22: The Young Barracks

"The head of the Yue family is a peak cultivator, and he is a tiger general in the army, and although the old lady of the Yue family is old, he is also the prime minister of the dynasty, and it can be said that he is above 10,000 people under one person," the thin man said halfway, suddenly lowered his head, and said lightly, "My lord, the Yue family has sprung up in recent decades, and the journey has been smooth, and the royal family is secretly helping, besides, I heard from the grapevine that the Yue family was supported by the royal family." ”

"Where did you hear that?" Gu Xi asked.

"Hehe, don't ask about it, adults, everyone in this business has a little secret. The thin man smiled and passed perfunctorily.

"Okay," Gu Xi nodded, not planning to ask any further, and asked in a changed tone, "By the way, do you know anything about the Chen family?"

"Hehe, adults must not know that the most taboo thing in the capital is to talk about the Chen family's previous affairs, if you accidentally let others hear it and tell the Chen family, I am afraid that tomorrow there will be a few more corpses in the wilderness outside the city. The thin man smiled bitterly and replied.

Gu Xi's eyes flashed with golden light, and when he saw that the thin man didn't look like he was pretending, he became suspicious in his heart.

However, he came here to take this opportunity to find out the truth of the Chen family, and he couldn't go home empty-handed.

After a long period of observation, Gu Xi found that this thin man was a greedy man, so he suddenly came up with a plan, before he left, Yue Hai gave him hundreds of taels of silver in Tianyi City, enough for him to squander to buy news.

Good steel is used on the blade, as long as he can buy useful information, no matter how much silver he spends, how much it costs, Gu Xi feels that it is worth it.

"Thin monkey, the news is hidden in your mind, do you think it is useful, the hidden news will not bring you silver taels," Gu Xi took out a silver ingot, put it on the table with a bang, and said bewildermently, "I'm just curious, I don't have any other plans, you tell me, I won't say it, and you are also rich." ”

Seeing the silver on the table, the thin man was stunned for a moment and sighed: "My lord, it's not that I don't want to say it, I'm afraid that if I say it, I have a life to take money, but I don't have a life to spend money." ”

Noticing that the thin man's eyes were always staring at the silver on the table, Gu Xi hooked the corners of his mouth, and unhurriedly took out a silver ingot from his pocket and put it on the table.

Gu Xi smiled and said nothing.

"My lord, your ......" Seeing that there was another ingot of silver, the thin man panicked, and his face was uncertain.

"Alas......" Gu Xi shook his head, and there was an extra ingot of silver in his hand, which was placed in front of the thin man.

The thin man trembled, gritted his teeth and took the three ingots of silver on the table, and the silver in front of him, like a girl with white flowers, was beckoning to him.

"Thin monkey, it seems that you are really the same as I thought, you are a lover!" Gu Xi smiled.

"My lord, my skinny monkey is alone, anyway, I am out of the way, I advise you, in the Lan Kingdom, don't mess with the Chen family if you provoke the royal family, otherwise you don't even know how to die!" The thin man looked at no one, put the silver in his pocket, and said coldly.

"The Chen family, it can be described by the word 'weird'," the thin man whispered, "In addition to the Chen Mansion in the capital, this Yanque Tower is the territory of the Chen family, don't look at the small place, but the Chen family is a famous family that has been inherited for thousands of years, and the family has endless body refining monks and spirit children, and even the manpower sent to suppress the Yue family and the royal family in the competition." ”

"I heard the old man say that the Chen family offended the immortals a few decades ago and was almost wiped out, but now it has finally recovered and been suppressed by the royal family, but the Chen family is still prosperous under the suppression, which shows how terrifying the Chen family's heritage is," the thin man said, "I heard that a few years ago, there was a gentleman in a small family in Lincheng who accidentally offended the Chen family, and was killed by a killer overnight, leaving no clues." ”

"Since then, no one in the capital has dared to ridicule the Chen family in public, after all, his own life is more important," the thin man said halfway through, as if he had thought of something, and hurriedly said, "By the way, on the top of the Yanque Pavilion where we are now, there is the son of the head of the Chen family, Chen Bufan." ”

"Chen Bufan......" Gu Xi muttered in his mouth.

"Yes, Chen Bufan is a genius in our Lan Kingdom, but he is only in his twenties, and his cultivation has reached the late stage of the spirit child, according to rumors, there are also big sects outside that have taken a fancy to the spirit root in his body, and plan to wait for him to break through to the peak of the spirit child and take it under the door. The thin man said.

"It seems that the Chen family is not easy to explore......"

Gu Xi thought like this, and when he glanced at it, he saw a familiar figure sitting on the table not far from him, drinking wine aimlessly.

Shi Hong!

Two months ago, this person escaped death, and it seems that he really returned to the capital secretly, and he has just arrived when he is dressed and dusty.

"Lord Shi ......" The thin man followed Gu Xi's gaze and saw Shi Hong, "Lord Shi has been worshiped by the Chen family for many years, and he has played a good game with a big knife." ”

Immediately, the thin man narrowed his eyes, glanced at Gu Xi with great meaning, his face moved, and he said, "How can adults be interested in the Chen family?"

"In the past, when my father was in his generation, he did business with the Chen family, and he was acquainted. Gu Xi's lies were sticky, and he was fooled in a few words.

"Oh," the thin man listened to this, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, "It turns out that you came to the capital to visit the Chen family on the orders of your father, but the people of the Chen family are not easy to see, and I am afraid that my lord's trip will be in vain." ”

"It's okay, I can see the grandeur of the capital, and it's worth my trip. Gu Xi smiled, it seemed that he had asked too much, which made the thin monkey suspicious.

"Okay, you help me settle the wine money," Gu Xi left a silver ingot, turned around to leave, "I still have to buy a few pairs of precious herbs for my father, I will not accompany me." ”

"Okay, thank you Erniu, there are many kinds of herbs in the famous grass house on East Street, adults can go to East Street to find out. The thin man instructed.

In the blink of an eye, Gu Xi left in response.

......

After leaving the Yanque Tower, Gu Xi followed the road he came, plunged into the tailor's shop, and changed his outfit.

After that, Gu Xi chose a high point, relying on the power of his golden pupils, he had a full view of the outline of the capital, and secretly remembered the structure of the streets of the capital.

Knowing the route in the city, Gu Xi followed his memory and found a gorgeous mansion.

The mansion is built on the royal palace, and there are many soldiers in the mansion one after another, and in the army, the monks of the body refining realm are endless, and it is not strange to see it.

On the dark door of the mansion, there is an antique door plaque, on which the words 'Young Military Camp' are written, which can be described as amazing.
