The girl's name is Tang Xue, and like Qin Fei, she is not from Lingzhou City, but because her home is very close to Lingzhou City, she often walks around the city, so she is more familiar with this area.

Qin Fei and Tang Xue walked side by side on the street, talking and laughing, the latter's outstanding appearance naturally attracted the attention of many people, and some teenagers who were about the same age as Qin Fei showed a strong jealousy in their eyes, eager to rush over and teach Qin Fei a hard lesson, asking him why he could get the favor of such a beauty.

It's also Qin Fei's casual habits, although the money he brought with him on this trip is quite sufficient, but he didn't expect to buy himself a passable outfit, and walking in a pile with Tang Xue is indeed a bit abrupt.

However, Tang Xue didn't mind this at all, and took Qin Fei around, enthusiastically explaining to him the division of forces in various regions of the city, as well as the specific strength.

Qin Fei didn't know anything about this, although he had been to Lingzhou City a few times before, he had always sold his prey and left immediately, and he hadn't paid attention to these, so he listened quietly and nodded from time to time.

Tang Xue said: "The biggest force in Lingzhou City is the City Lord's Mansion, they control the power of Lingzhou's soldiers and horses, and they have powerful martial arts myths, and they can basically be said to cover the sky with one hand in Lingzhou. ”

"However, under the City Lord's Mansion, there are still three major families, and the power is also not to be underestimated. ”

"Three major families?" Qin Fei asked.

He naturally knew about the City Lord's Mansion, but he had never heard of the three major families that Tang Xue was talking about.

Tang Xue said: "The three major families are the Kong family and the Lin family, as well as the most mysterious Murong family. ”

"The Kong family is still martial, in fact, it is the descendant force of the City Lord's Mansion, and many of them hold important positions in the Lingzhou Forbidden Army, so the Kong family has an inextricable relationship with the City Lord's Mansion, and its strength has also increased, ranking among the best among the three major families. ”

"The Lin family is a big family that mainly operates business, and the large and small businesses in Lingzhou City, from the auction house, the armory shop, the elixir hall, to the gambling house and the Qinglou, almost everything that can make money will have the shadow of the Lin family behind it. This family has been deeply rooted in Lingzhou City for hundreds of years, and the wealth accumulated during this period is unimaginable to ordinary people, and it is truly a country that rivals wealth. ”

Qin Fei asked, "What about the Murong family?"

"Murong Family ......"

Tang Xue frowned, obviously, with her knowledge, she didn't know the situation of the Murong family very well.

After thinking for a while, she said, "The Murong family is different from the other two families, I heard that there are less than ten people in their clan, large and small. ”

"Less than ten people, and such a family?" Qin Fei was stunned for a moment.

Since it can be called a family, it is by no means a few or even dozens of people can describe it, at least it must be a combination of hundreds or thousands of people from the family, the family is prosperous, the descendants are continuous, and it has developed in a certain place for a long time, so it can be called a family.

If the Murong family really has less than ten people, how can it be called a family?

As if seeing the confusion in Qin Fei's eyes, Tang Xue smiled and said, "I also heard what others said, but I don't know if it's true or not." ”

Qin Fei nodded: "It's okay, anyway, we can't usually touch these things, so let's listen to them casually, and treat them as an increase in knowledge." ”

Hearing him say this, Tang Xue smiled.

The two continued to wander the streets.

After strolling around for a while, Qin Fei's eyes were suddenly attracted by a stall on the side of the road.

In this small stall, the items placed were quite miscellaneous, such as the bones of some unknown animals, or medicinal herbs and the like, and what attracted Qin Fei's attention was a rusty ring placed in an inconspicuous place in the lower left corner.

"What's wrong?"

Tang Xue saw him stop and asked.

Qin Fei squatted in front of the stall and looked at it with the rusty ring.

The stall owner was a little old man in his fifties, who looked very obscene, and when he saw Qin Fei's actions, he smiled and said: "Little brother really has a vision, this thing is an old thing, don't look at it, but I have studied it carefully, this is definitely a good baby!"

"Baby, how do you decide this is a baby? I think it's just a circle of scrap metal. ”

Qin Fei sneered when he heard this, his face full of disdain.

Although he didn't know what this ring was, he was really interested, but he couldn't let the other party see this emotion, otherwise he would inevitably be on the ground.

When the stall owner heard this, he was also a little anxious, and said: "You young man, how can my baby be a circle of scrap iron? Let me tell you the truth, although I don't know what it is, but my son used a knife to chop this thing for a long time a few days ago, and there was no trace left on it, if you don't believe it, you can try it!"

Qin Fei shrugged: "There are no knives here." ”

"You wait a minute. ”

In order to verify that his words were true, the stall owner actually went to the restaurant next to him to borrow a kitchen knife, and then picked up the knife and slashed at the thumb-sized ring.

With a 'ding' sound, a string of sparks burst out from the tip of the knife, the ring was intact, and a large gap appeared on the kitchen knife.

Qin Fei's eyes froze, no matter what this ring was, at least its material was indeed not simple.

So he asked, "How much does it cost?"

"Hehe, it's not expensive, just fifty gold coins. The stall owner said with a smile.

"Damn, you're a lion with a big mouth?!" Qin Fei couldn't help but scold.

The stall owner said: "Little brother, I see that you are also a martial arts person, you should understand that sometimes you can't figure out the origin and purpose of things, the value is even more immeasurable, if you don't want it, I will take it back, and I won't put it out for sale in the future, even if it's at home?"

Qin Fei couldn't help frowning.

He really wanted to buy this ring, and when he first passed the stall, it was this thing that made him feel something and his eyes were sucked.

But the price of fifty gold coins was indeed beyond his acceptable range, and even if he sold him, he would not be able to take out so much money.

You must know that ten gold coins are enough for the living expenses of an ordinary family for several years.

"Can it be cheaper?" Qin Fei asked.

"No two prices. The stall owner shook his head.

Just as Qin Fei sighed and was about to leave, a crisp voice suddenly came from the side: "Boss, I bought this ring." ”

Qin Fei turned his head in surprise, only to find that Tang Xue was looking at him with a smile.

"Hehe, this girl is refreshing enough. ”

The stall owner took the money handed over by Tang Xue, and immediately smiled.

"Oh, here you go. Tang Xue ignored him and handed the ring to Qin Fei.

"This ...... How can this work......"

Qin Fei immediately blushed, he was really not polite to Tang Xue, but he really felt very embarrassed.

"It's nothing, you helped me a lot yesterday, this little thing is nothing. Tang Xue said with a smile.

"But...... Okay, I'll pay you back when I have the money. Qin Fei said seriously.

Just as he was about to take the ring, a hand suddenly reached out in mid-air and snatched the ring in one fell swoop.

"It's a good ring, I want it. ”
