Chapter 307: Shang Xiuxun
Hearing Mo Fei and Li Jing praise Pegasus Ranch, Liu Zongdao was also proud in his heart, and his face showed a little self-satisfaction.
It was inevitable that Mo Fei was too bored along the way, so Liu Zongdao told Mo Fei and Li Jing about the origin of Pegasus Ranch.
The first generation owner of Pegasus Ranch is Shang Xiong, a military general at the end of the Jin Dynasty. Because Liu Yu changed the name of the country to Song in order to avoid the disaster of war, Shang Xiong went south with his subordinates and relatives, and by chance found this basin plain hidden between the mountains, so he established a pasture here and lived and worked in peace and contentment.
Since the establishment of the ranch, over the past 160 years, Pegasus Ranch has experienced seven Shang owners, which have been passed down from generation to generation.
In addition to the Shang lineage, the ranch also has several surnames such as Liang, Liu, Tao, Wu, Xu, Luo, etc., and the clansmen have multiplied from generation to generation, and they do not stop moving out of the surrounding areas to form nearby towns.
Today, more than half of the inhabitants of the two big cities on the banks of the frustrated water, Yuan'an and Dangyang, originate from Pegasus Ranch.
Pegasus Ranch is also the economic lifeblood of the nearby area, and it is famous for producing high-quality war horses.
However, due to the owner's ancestral teachings, low-key style, strict neutrality, and always only doing business, Pegasus Ranch does not have much reputation in the rivers and lakes.
It's just that the war horse business of Pegasus Ranch has some influence on the world, and few people today don't know about the existence of Pegasus Ranch.
Shang Xiong, the original owner of the ranch, was born as a military general, and he knew that long-term stability also required his own strong fists. He encouraged his subordinates to study martial arts and promote martial arts.
It is because the children of the ranch are all brave, all of them are good at fighting, and they can pull out more than 1,000 cavalry casually. If you mobilize with all your might, you can organize thousands of cavalry.
When the troubled times came, the military disasters broke out, and the government was unable to maintain order, Pegasus Ranch became the mainstay of this area to protect the territory and the people, sweeping away bandits, fighting against the defeated soldiers who caused disaster to the neighbors, and protecting the safety of the place, which won the respect of the neighbors of the four wild villages.
"In troubled times, it's time for Pegasus Ranch to make a big difference." Li Jing said: "Deacon Liu, looking at the size of the Pegasus Ranch, I'm afraid it's just a matter of raising 100,000 horses, right?" ”
"How can there be so many? It's ......" Liu Zong paused and said vaguely: "It's only tens of thousands of horses...... However, due to the large increase in business in recent years, many of the adult good horses have been sold, and most of them are just some remaining foals. ”
Li Jing knows how to prevent spying on intelligence, and Liu Zongdao is not a fool, of course he will not take out the old bottom of Pegasus Ranch as soon as they meet.
After crossing the mountain, from the main gate of the castle, the two of them officially entered the ranch mountain city.
The mountain city that had just entered the Pegasus Ranch, and the group came out of nowhere, blocking the way of Mo Fei and the others.
"Yo, isn't this a second deacon? Why did you come back so early today? This is the patrol mission? ”
The leader is a tall middle-aged strong man, majestic in size, but with a pair of goat eyes, which makes him appear cunning and shrewd, making people feel uncomfortable when they look at it.
Because of the dense battle clouds, Pegasus Ranch stepped up patrols around the perimeter, and Liu Zongdao was in charge of this area.
"Second Deacon, these friends around you look very tight, aren't they from the ranch? In this way, the ranch is in danger, and it is inevitable that someone will send spies into the ranch to capture the ranch. At this stormy moment, the second deacon, you casually brought some cats and dogs to the ranch mountain town, not afraid of being mixed in? If something happens, can you, the second deacon, afford it? ”
"Cat and dog?" Mo Fei smiled, his eyes flashed blue, and said, "Are you talking about me?" ”
The person who was talking seemed to be choked by an invisible hand and slowly floated.
His face quickly turned red from lack of oxygen.
He clutched his throat as if he wanted to break the hand that was holding his throat, but he could only do useless work, because no one was holding his throat with his hand at all.
His eyes were round and frightened, as if he couldn't believe it.
"What kind of magic did you use on him?"
Someone was frightened and immediately drew his sharp blade and aimed it at Murphy.
"Let him go!"
But all those who dared to draw their swords against Murphy followed in the footsteps of the man who had gone before.
"Seniors are angry!" Liu Zongdao saw that the big thing was not good, so he hurriedly walked to Mo Fei's side and said: "It's because they look down on people, but please also ask the seniors to read it for the sake of those who don't know, and spare their lives!" ”
Mo Fei smiled lightly and said, "Your Pegasus Ranch is quite interesting, the enemy is currently in danger of overturning at any time, and there is still intrigue and power tricks inside!" ”
"Let the seniors laugh." Liu Zongdao smiled bitterly.
"What's this man's name?" Murphy asked, glancing at the troublemaker in the lead.
"His name is Tao Shusheng, and he is the third deacon of Pegasus Ranch."
"Tao Shusheng?" Hearing this name, Mo Fei is a little familiar, and he always feels a bit of a traitor.
Mo Fei was about to speak, when he suddenly heard the thundering sound of horses' hooves again, and he turned his head to look, only to see dozens of horsemen galloping towards him, and a woman in a strong suit was surrounded by these horsemen like a moon of stars.
Shang Xiu!
Her long hair poured down her knife-like shoulders like two waterfalls, and it was unusually beautiful.
The complexion is stunning, with a slightly sun-kissed delicate skin, exuding a scorching youthful and enviable sense of health.
A pair of beautiful eyes are deep and unfathomable, like phoenix eyes rippling with the most fragrant and mellow fairy wine, adding to her mystery.
Don't look at the young age of this beauty owner, but there is a calmness and decisiveness that is not commensurate with her age, managing the Pegasus Ranch with more than 1,000 people without the slightest helplessness, her kind of decisive, shrewd and capable temperament, living out of the image of a strong woman.
A few dozen meters away, she saw Mo Fei standing with a faint smile on his face, and glanced around, she frowned slightly, she didn't understand the person sent by Liu Zongdao to come back?
Moreover, the state of the third deacon, Tao Shusheng and others, seems a little strange.
When Ling Zhi approached, Shang Xiu turned over and dismounted, crisp and neat, enough for her to bow and horse skillfully, which was not comparable to ordinary people.
For fear that Shang Xiu would despise Mo Fei's appearance, Liu Zongdao hurried to make an introduction to both parties before Shang Xiu spoke.
"The seniors are here, the Pegasus Ranch is shining, the little women are showing, and they have seen the seniors." Shang Xiu respectfully bowed to Mo Fei.
"Well said, well said." Murphy smiled and nodded.
He can also be regarded as having seen Zhu Yuyan's beauty, and Shang Xiu's beauty is not much worse than Zhu Yuyan.
It is not surprising that Shang Xiu's mother is also Shang Qingya, who is ranked alongside Zhu Yuyan, Mingyue, and Fan Qinghui in the previous generation, and her father Lu Miaozi is not ugly.
In fact, when the beauties reach a certain level, it is difficult to distinguish between the superior and the low, Chunlan and autumn chrysanthemums, each with its own beauty.
The reason why Shang Xiu's reputation is weaker than that of Zhi, Shi Feixuan, Shi Qingxuan, and Shang Xiufang is nothing more than that her importance to this world is weaker, and her luck is a little weaker.
"I don't know how my subordinates offended their seniors?" Shang Xiu looked at Tao Shusheng and the others who were half-floating in the air and asked.
Even if Liu Zongdao hadn't said it yet, with Shang Xiu's eyesight, how could he not see that Tao Shusheng and these people had angered Mo Fei.
Without waiting for Mo Fei to speak, Liu Zongdao hurriedly told the cause of the incident.
Shang Xiu groaned slightly, took a deep look at Mo Fei, and said, "It really made the seniors laugh!" Please also ask the seniors to read on the show for the sake of a few thin noodles, and spare their lives for the time being, but the seniors, please rest assured, the show is not a short-term person, and when the show figures things out, he will definitely give the seniors an explanation! ”
is different from the people of later generations who laugh at poverty and do not laugh at prostitutes, money is supreme, in the martial arts, mixed in the rivers and lakes, the most important thing is to save face.
For the sake of face, he destroys the devil who is full of people at every turn, such as a carp crossing the river.
Tao Shusheng and the others didn't know that the sky was high and the earth had offended Mo Fei, and even if Shang Xiu had a big face, it would be difficult for him to open his mouth and let Mo Fei directly expose the matter.
In the end, even if Tao Shusheng and the others did not lose their lives, they were afraid that they would have to remove some parts from their bodies.
Of course, the premise of all this lies in Murphy's extraordinary strength.
Don't look at Mo Fei, he met a lot of grandmaster-level martial artists along the way, but in fact, grandmaster-level martial artists are not cabbages.
Pegasus Ranch is now the highest cultivator, and it is only an innate distant sect, and it has not broken through the grandmaster-level martial artist at all.
Mo Fei can dismiss Du Fuwei, a grandmaster-level martial artist, if he wants to disadvantage her Pegasus Ranch if he doesn't show up......
Speaking of which, Shang Xiu also felt a little angry, the old lady stayed in her own house well, you inexplicably went to the old lady, and didn't give any invitations, and now the people under my hands have caused trouble because they don't know you, and they have to pay the price...... emmmmmmmmm……
But there is no way, the Jianghu martial arts is to pay attention to the weak and the strong, and the strong are respected, and the high-end martial artists of Pegasus Ranch are too far apart, so they don't dare to anger Mo Fei at all.
If Tao Shusheng was just an ordinary person, Shang Xiu apologized with a hammer, I am afraid that he would have been thrown out a long time ago.
"I'm a person, I've always been kind to others, but it doesn't matter."
Shang Xiu calmed down, listened carefully to what Mo Fei said, and did not interject in a hurry.
According to her experience in dealing with people, Mo Fei will bring a but......
And that's the point.
"But!"
Shang Xiu secretly said in his heart.
"This Deacon Tao Shusheng seems to be a little unusual!" Mo Fei's expression was a little playful, and said: "Li Minai is the recognized leader of the anti-king alliance today, and sent his son Li Tianfan to lead 20,000 elite soldiers to take the Pegasus Ranch, does the mall owner know that the interior of the Pegasus Ranch is really monolithic?" ”
"It's good for my seniors to call me Xiu." Shang Xiu narrowed his eyes and said, "I just don't know what my predecessor means by this?" ”
"The ancients often said that ants still steal life, greedy for life and afraid of death, it is human nature, hard-boned heroes, but they are a minority." Mo Fei shrugged his shoulders and said, "Your Pegasus Ranch is naturally full of soft-boned people, afraid of Li Mi, and greedy for benefits......"
"The predecessors are saying that Deacon Tao is already Li Mi's person?" Shang Xiu's beautiful eyes flashed and said.
was choked by Mo Fei's throat with his mental power, and Tao Shusheng, who heard what Mo Fei said at this time, was horrified.
He was indeed bought by Li Mi a long time ago, and became Li Mi's spy in the Pegasus Ranch, and wanted to secretly help Li Mi plot to take the Pegasus Ranch.
He was optimistic that Li Mi would be able to seize the world, and Li Mi also promised him that if he could help seize the Pegasus Ranch, he would give him a great fortune.
Lured by the glory and wealth, he began to constantly sell the ranch information to Li Mi and help Li Mi formulate a plan to seize the Pegasus Ranch.
But shouldn't these things be top secret?
Why would this man know?
"Xiu is really smart." Mo Fei climbed up the pole, nodded with a smile, and said, "If Xiu believes me, you might as well check Deacon Tao Shusheng's concubine, you should have some gains." ”
Mo Fei vaguely remembered that Tao Shusheng's concubine seemed to be the connector between him and Li Mi.
"The predecessor is a master, why deceive the show!" Shang Xiu ostensibly believed it, and asked his subordinates to escort Tao Shusheng and others into the cell, and sent someone to investigate Tao Shusheng's concubine.
All this was done in front of Murphy.
As for what happened in private, Mo Fei definitely couldn't see it.
Shang Xiu is now considered a small prince, because Mo Fei's means are extraordinary, some fear and respect are certain, but if you really take Mo Fei's words as a holy decree, unless her brain is in water.
The matter was temporarily understood, and Shang Xiu stretched out his hand to invite: "The seniors are coming from afar, Xiu has prepared a banquet for the seniors, please move the seniors." ”
Led by Shang Xiu, he took the two of them all the way to the inner castle where the owner of Pegasus Ranch lived.
Located at the top of the mountain city, the inner fort is large in scale, the main building has five palaces, and there are a number of partial halls and corridors, pavilions and pavilions, and the big hut is in an orderly manner. In addition to all kinds of main buildings, the inner fort can be seen everywhere garden flowers and trees, small bridges and waterfalls, the layout is not messy, anti-delicate and elegant, full of interest, it is like the beautiful scenery of the wealthy garden in the south of the Yangtze River.
The banquet begins.
Many pretty maidservants brought delicate dishes.
Shang Xiu, the owner of the beauty field, has no other hobbies in his life, that is, he never gets tired of eating, he never gets tired of being fine, and he is a standard cute foodie.
She is very picky about her diet and loves to try new things. Her dedicated chef is always replaced, and if she makes a meal that doesn't suit her taste, she will be fired mercilessly.
As a result, Pegasus Ranch has gathered countless famous chefs from all over the world, and the wine banquet used to entertain Murphy is naturally a first-class delicacy.
After three rounds of drinking, Shang Xiu spoke, and said with a sweet smile: "I don't know why my predecessors came to Pegasus Ranch?" If there is a place where Xiu can help the seniors, the seniors can just speak. ”
coincided with the news that Li Mi wanted to take Pegasus Ranch, and most people in Pegasus Ranch were nervous, but Mo Fei, a big master who was suddenly famous all over the world, suddenly came to Pegasus Ranch, and Shang Xiu and others couldn't think about it.
The high-end combat power of Pegasus Ranch is seriously insufficient, if a master like Mo Fei has a little bad intentions...... The consequences are unimaginable!
If he couldn't ask Mo Fei's intentions, Shang Xiu felt that he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to sleep well tonight.
