"Tempest Fist, ahh

In the courtyard of an inn, Pu Zixuan was unleashing the Dragon King of the Galaxy and throwing a flurry of fists at a stout ginkgo tree.

The ginkgo tree burst in response to the sound and fell to the ground with a bang. Pu Zixuan put away the power of purification, exhaled, and waited for the next follow-up reaction.

After a while, the cracked trunk just lay on the ground in pieces, motionless, and speechless about its innocence.

Pu Zixuan glared at the ginkgo tree fiercely, and said dejectedly to Chen Shuqing, Zhu Yuanliang and Sun Xiaoshu who were watching behind him: "It seems that it is true that the power of thunder and lightning stored in the body has been used up, and after breaking a plane tree last time, there is still a trace of thunder and lightning that symbolically flashed twice, this time, it is not to give any face......

Chen Shuqing shrugged and said: "This is good, not to mention snatching food from the old demon of the Black Mountain and snatching a fragment, even if you see the Red Yaksha again, you will be repaired to the ground, right?" ”

Sun Xiaoshu said helplessly: "My God, the opponents this time are two demon kings, plus a rebel, just a few of us, I'm afraid it's not enough to stuff people's teeth!" ”

Pu Zixuan pretended to be relaxed and said: "It's okay, it's okay, haven't we already said it, the fragment of the old demon of Black Mountain, if you can take it, you can take it, even if you can't get it, you must at least defeat the Red Yaksha and lift the curse, as for the power of thunder and lightning, it's a big deal, where will I go to eat a few thunderbolts, and store a little." ”

Zhu Yuanliang analyzed: "Yes, our real opponent is only Red Yaksha, but the breath of Red Yaksha and Jenny can't be detected, and the ghost knows where they are...... Unless, they join forces with the old demon of Montenegro...... Then, let's go up to Lushan, but don't we also have to face the old demon of Montenegro? ”

Pu Zixuan said with a smile: "It's strange here, the old demon of Montenegro is no longer in Lushan, at present, on Lushan, although there is a large amount of demonic energy, but the demonic energy of the old demon of Montenegro has gone far to the area of Ganzhou Mansion in the southeast, at present, it is a good opportunity to go to Lushan to end its old nest!" ”

Chen Shuqing thought about a few more questions: "But have you thought about it, Xiaoqi?" Why did the old demon of Montenegro go to Ganzhou Mansion? Judging from the movement of Su Sanniang's breath, the rest of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has been being pursued by the Qing army, and from the junction of Zhejiang, Anhui, and Jiangxi provinces, it has been slowly moving to the south, and the southernmost prefecture in Jiangxi is Ganzhou Mansion. I'm thinking, could it be that there is a Qing army that should report to the old demon of Montenegro and ask him to intercept the Taiping army in the south? If this is the case, we must rush to Ganzhou Mansion as soon as possible to assist Su Sanniang! ”

Pu Zixuan was stunned and said: "It is indeed possible, then, when will Sanniang and them arrive in Ganzhou?" ”

Chen Shuqing thought for a while and said: "Sanniang's breath does not move in a straight line, it seems that sometimes they win the battle and push the battle line north a little, but the overall trend remains the same, if there is no accident, it can last for half a month." ”

"Half a month ......" Pu Zixuan said after thinking about it, "Okay, let's take action, first find a way to store thunder and lightning, go to Lushan to get rid of the minions of the Red Yaksha and the old demon of the Black Mountain, and then go to Ganzhou to meet Su Sanniang!" ”

This dialogue occurred half a month after the shipwreck in Poyang Lake, in the middle of September 186, Pu Zixuan and his entourage had arrived in Yugan County, Raozhou Prefecture, Jiangxi Province and settled in the territory for more than ten days. There was a scene of Pu Zixuan being bored and practicing with a ginkgo tree.

Just when the four of them were chatting, the innkeeper heard the loud sound of the tree falling to the ground, and rushed in from the front desk, and when he saw the broken tree trunk on the ground, he couldn't believe his eyes, and exclaimed: "Oh my God, what's going on?" ”

Pu Zixuan saw the distressed appearance of the shopkeeper, but because of the strong financial resources and was not afraid of compensation, he smiled disapprovingly, walked forward, arched his hand and said: "Shop, I'm really sorry, recently, I encountered some strange things, and I developed a bad habit. Look, how much should I pay you? ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he didn't wonder why this young man had the divine power to "beat" the big tree into such a broken appearance, but just scolded: "You guy, can you afford it?" ”

Pu Zixuan said lightly: "How many taels of silver?" The report is. ”

In Pu Zixuan's heart, a ginkgo tree is only worth about one tael of silver, and he was about to apologize to the other party for two taels of silver, but he didn't want the store to say angrily: "This ginkgo tree is not an ordinary tree, but a ginkgo tree king, which has a history of two thousand years, and it can be described as priceless!" Is it something yellow and white that can be exchanged? ”

When Zhu Yuanliang heard this, he suddenly felt that the shopkeeper had the intention to blackmail, and before Pu Zixuan could speak, he immediately stepped forward and shouted: "Hey, you old man, you said it is a thousand-year-old ginkgo, it is a thousand-year-old ginkgo?" What about the evidence? If I don't have proof, I'll sue you for blackmail!" ”

"Hey, you guys are doing sabotage, are you justified? Evidence, you want evidence, don't you? Okay......" The shopkeeper bent down and rummaged over the broken trunk, then found a tag on a broken piece of wood, tore it off, lit it up in front of the two of them, and said, "See?" This is the certificate given by the government, but it is stamped with a public seal! ”

On the label, it really reads: "Ginkgo Tree King? The tree is 2,000 years old", and the public seal is also stamped underneath.

???? Pu Zixuan swallowed his saliva and said, "This ......"

Chen Shuqing couldn't help but step forward, glanced at the label, shrugged and said, "This public seal is indeed not fake, Xiao Qi, you moth is too big." ”

Pu Zixuan instantly understood that he had made a mistake, and Zhu Yuanliang knew that he was in a position and was powerless to refute it.

Chen Shuqing sighed and said, "Okay, shopkeeper, this matter has come to this point, and the dead tree can't be resurrected, so you might as well give a price." ”

The shopkeeper was angry, and only after a while did he stretch out his right hand, and his five fingers were spread out: "This number!" ”

"Five taels of silver?" Pu Zixuan asked.

"No, it's fifty taels!"

"This ......" Although Pu Zixuan was not short of money, he still felt a pain in his heart when he was cut off fifty taels of silver for a broken tree, so he said with a hippie smile, "Shopkeeper, it's just a tree, isn't it?" You see, we've lived with you for so long, and you've made enough money from us, so how about a discount? ”

"To each his own thing!" The shopkeeper said uncompromisingly, "The Millennium Tree King, a priceless treasure, only to let you lose fifty taels of silver, it is enough for you, if you can't take it out, I will go to the official and let the government evaluate it!" ”

"Don't don't don't ......" Pu Zixuan saw that the store was moving, and hurriedly responded, "Fifty taels is fifty taels, I will compensate you, you wait a minute, ......"

After speaking, Pu Zixuan turned around depressedly and muttered to himself: "His grandmother's has been two thousand years, and he is not a demon yet, he is stupid!" After entering the room, after a short time, I walked out with a silver ticket and handed it to the store.

The shopkeeper accepted the silver ticket, looked at it carefully, and found that it was not fake, and the gloomy color on his face was relieved, and he raised his eyes to look at Pu Zixuan, and wondered: "Yo, he is really a big young master, he has such financial resources at a young age, and he dares to ask what kind of business the son does?" ”

"No, no, no, nothing." Pu Zixuan joked, "If you have to say it, you have to start with another thousand-year-old broken tree." ”

Chen Shuqing saw that Pu Zixuan didn't choose to speak, so she hurriedly coughed and interjected: "Oh, don't say it, still tree tree tree, our family property is about to be ruined by your bad problem, you say you, why can't you do it, do you have to take a good bite?" Let's think about how to give that tree to the old lady and I can get it back! ”

Pu Zixuan came over seriously and asked the shopkeeper: "By the way, by the way, I would like to ask you something, do you know, is there a place near here where there are a lot of thunder and lightning?" This is especially true in places where there is no rain when there is only thunder. ”

The shopkeeper never expected that Pu Zixuan's topic would change so much, and he was stunned: "What are you looking for this kind of place?" ”

"Travel." Pu Zixuan didn't know how to explain, so he prevaricated casually.

The shopkeeper said disdainfully: "Traveling to a place with a lot of thunder and lightning? Could it be that the son just lost such a large sum of silver, and he held a sulk in his heart and had nowhere to vent, so he took revenge by laughing at the old man? ”

"I'm not really joking." Pu Zixuan said helplessly, "I'm a person, when it comes to the advantages, there are really a lot of bad problems, I like to destroy trees, and there is another, I like to watch thunder, as soon as I see the lightning and thunder in the sky, I can't stop being excited." Shop you, just give me some pointers. ”

Seeing the shopkeeper's dumbfounded appearance, Chen Shuqing said helpfully: "Shopkeeper, he really didn't laugh, just talk about it." ”

???? Subsequently, Zhu Yuanliang and Sun Xiaoshu also stepped forward to testify.

The shopkeeper didn't seem to be smiling when he saw the four of them, so he responded: "It seems that Young Master Kuo, who has nothing to do, really has a lot of quirks...... If you talk about the place where thunder and lightning are concentrated, it's hard to say elsewhere, but there is really one near us. ”

"Is there really such a place?" Pu Zixuan was suddenly surprised, "Where is it?" What kind of centralization is it? ”

The shopkeeper said: "You must know about Poyang Lake, right?" In Duchang County, Nankang Prefecture, there is a township called Duobao Township, where there is a mountain near the lake, called Longtou Mountain, there is a Taoist temple on the mountain, called Xianying Palace, and the folk call it 'Lao Ye Temple'. The waters in that area, every summer and autumn, often suddenly and without warning lightning and thunder, at this time go there to stay for a day or two, do not encounter thunder and lightning, the old man's surname is written upside down! ”

Pu Zixuan asked again: "Then, is there a certain building there that will inevitably be struck by lightning?" ”

"Hehe, there is." The shopkeeper said, "That is the Dingjiang Pagoda on the mountain, towering, but it is definitely a 'feng shui treasure land' that attracts thunder and lightning, if you objectively have that habit, you might as well go to the Dingjiang Pagoda to try your luck, but, as soon as the old man has something to say, I'm afraid you will retreat......

Pu Zixuan couldn't listen to the store's warning, and excitedly said to Chen Shuqing: "Xiao Jiu, you have a good memory, do you remember this string of names?" ”

"Uh......" Chen Shuqing recalled, "Duchang County, Nankang Prefecture...... Duobao Township ...... What mountain? ”

"Longtou Mountain, Dingjiang Pagoda." The shopkeeper repeated.

"Longtou Mountain, Dingjiang Pagoda." Chen Shuqing said, "Okay, remember, without further ado, let's go tonight." ”

"Hehe, don't worry, I'm not done yet." The shopkeeper seemed to be talking with interest, with a strange look on his face, and said with a sneer, "There is not only thunder and lightning, but what is even more terrifying is that the waters in that area, I don't know what evil has fallen into, there are always passing ships sinking, therefore, for many years, people have talked about the change of color of the lake, and few people dare to go there, and people have also given that water area a terrifying name." ”

"What's the name?"

The shopkeeper pretended to be a ghost, and said four words word by word: "Devil's Waters!" ”
