Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Mountain Road is sinister and sees the bandits
Bai Yufan's eyes condensed slightly: "What's the matter." ”
"I have carefully considered that the road to further progress in the future is limited, the sect is ethereal, and there are too many offerings required, which is not suitable for my Bai family, and the way of the family will inevitably make my Bai family lose its autonomy, and it is not suitable, I only want to take the road of the imperial court, so I plan to take the martial arts, and I will participate in the government examination in May this year. ”
Hearing Bai Fengjiu's decision, Bai Yufan did not object: "You decide your own path, I have no opinion, I know that you are not in the family, but I hope that you can cultivate your younger brother before you leave, so that he can grow to the point of taking over the family business." ”
"Father, don't worry, I will try my best to collect all kinds of secret methods and pills to increase the level of blood refining and entering the body, and I will definitely let the old ten become monks and take over the family business. ”
Bai Yufan nodded, and said with a trace of tiredness on his face: "The Bai family depends on you two brothers, and I don't have a few years to live." ”
The light in Bai Fengjiu's eyes dimmed, Bai Yufan was really good to him, in this world, his mother died of dystocia as soon as he was born, and he grew up completely under Bai Yufan's care, although he said that he was a reincarnated father, he had no feelings but was fake, people were not grass and trees, who could be ruthless, but Shou Yuan was a hurdle that everyone stepped over, even if it was a monk, not to mention an ordinary low-level monk, it was no different from ordinary people, but it was just that he could live strong until he died.
Bai Yufan is now nearly 70 years old, if he is well maintained, he may still have a life span of one or two decades, but some time ago, he worked hard, and he was injured in a big war, which consumed a lot of vitality, and he has aged a lot these days, and I am afraid that there will be no more years.
For these Bai Fengjiu also looked at it, but unfortunately the things that could prolong his life were sky-high, and they were not at all something that could be referred to by a family that was not even a low-level family, he could only watch Bai Yufan die.
Seeing Bai Fengjiu's gloomy expression, Bai Yufan said: "You don't have to be sad, life is in the world, there will eventually be death, I still have some time, in this life, my Bai family can become a family, I can also be able to look away, Jiuquan can also face the ancestors and ancestors before, and you can also hold your head high." ”
Bai Fengjiu pursed his lips when he heard this, nodded and said, "Father, don't worry, I will definitely let you see my Bai family become a family." ”
Bai Yufan said with a smile: "That's good, I believe you will be able to do it." ”
The next day, Bai Fengjiu took the carriage of the Bai family and headed towards Changping City, May is the martial arts, it is now March, there are still two months, he will not return for the time being after going to Changping City, but directly intends to wait there for the martial arts to be held, and at the same time buy the bloodline he needs, and impact the ninth layer of blood refining into the body.
Changping City is two hundred miles away from Qingxian Town, most of the roads are official roads, but sometimes there are various small roads and dangerous places, although the Dakun Dynasty has a strict legal system, there is no lack of bandit kings, ordinary merchants will walk these roads under the protection of dart lines.
The mountain road is rugged, and the land of this southern province is mostly steep and poor mountains, so the official road is not very uneven, and the caravan needs to be protected by force, otherwise it is very easy to be robbed, and finally end up with no personal wealth.
Bai Fengjiu sat in the carriage, only accompanied by the groom who drove the car, this groom was his old servant of the Bai family, and he was also a mortal master-level master, in his forties, when he was in the prime of his life, he was in the prime of his life, and the "Mountain Opening Knife" was a tiger and a tiger, and the average martial artist was not an opponent at all, and one person could be besieged by ten people.
Although Bai Fengjiu is just an ordinary cultivator, if he is in the countryside, he is also a strong and powerful character, and ordinary thieves will never dare to provoke him, and he can be regarded as a first-class master in the rivers and lakes.
Bai Fengjiu looked at the mountain road becoming narrower and steeper, and said lightly: "Wang Zhong, is it Heifeng Mountain in front, I heard that bandits are rampant there, robbers are everywhere, you be careful, if something can't be done, call me again." ”
Wang Zhong said with a serious face: "Young master, don't worry, the villain won't let those thieves and fools disturb the young master." ”
Time passed minute by minute, Bai Fengjiu was looking at the books on the carriage, absorbing the information and knowledge of this world, and there was a small table in front of him, on which was a plate of special spicy jerky, which was something he made himself, the raw materials were pure, the taste was very delicious, his favorite food.
Bai Fengjiu has never liked masochism, in addition to the necessary cultivation, he will definitely enjoy it when it is time to enjoy it, and finally relive his life, although there is a way of cultivation in this world, he doesn't know if this cultivation will have an end, and it is not certain when his life will disappear, so he has to do more things and enjoy more happiness in a limited time.
And this world is still in the farming period, there is almost nothing to enjoy, except for food and clothing, it is a woman, but for Bai Fengjiu, he has his own principles for women, and he will not play with the women of this world at will, although the status of women in this world is also relatively low, which is the characteristics and structure of ancient civilizations, but he will not bully others.
Therefore, what can really make Bai Fengjiu feel happy is only eating, the diet in this world is relatively monotonous, although it is somewhat delicious, but it cannot be compared with the cuisine of China for five thousand years, although Bai Fengjiu has only eaten the cuisine of Sichuan cuisine, but it does not prevent him from developing food in this world, because his Bai family is also rich, all kinds of ingredients are available, he can try as much as he wants, and all the servants are his experiments, you can try his works.
All the servants of the Bai family gave him a name behind his back, the murderous chef, he knew it himself, but he just enjoyed it.
And about an hour later, Bai Fengjiu was enjoying his food, but the carriage suddenly stopped, and more than a dozen people in front of him had already blocked the way, each with a knife, with a fierce face, the world was stable in this era, and there were very few people who couldn't eat enough, only those gangsters and court criminals who couldn't stay could come out to be thieves.
Looking out of the carriage window, Bai Fengjiu's eyes were sharp, and he could see at a glance that this group of people were all skilled bandits with bows and horses, with swords and excellent bows and arrows, and it was extremely difficult for ordinary martial arts people to deal with.
Wang Zhong stood up, took out a big knife from his side, and stood on the mountain road with a slight leap, looking at the few people in front of him: "This brother, our master and servant came from Qingxian Town, went to Changping, passed by Heifeng Mountain, but it was disturbing, there are fifty taels of silver here, filial piety to you, it is convenient to do it." ”
As he spoke, a bag of silver rose in his hand and threw it at the leader.
The leader's face was fierce, he raised his hand to take the silver, weighed it casually, nodded and said: "Okay, brother also knows, I am Liu Heng of Changfeng Village in Heifeng Mountain, since you gave the money to buy the road, go over, and when you meet someone on the road, they will say that I Liu Heng accepted your money to buy the road, and you can go over." ”
Hearing this, Wang Zhong arched his hand and said, "Thank you Lord Liu Dazhai." ”
Turning over and getting into the carriage, Wang Zhong whipped on the horse's buttocks, started the carriage, and continued to move forward, Liu Heng and the others had already made way of the road and let them go on the road, and did not stop them.
Seeing Bai Fengjiu's carriage leave far away, Liu Heng said with a small leader: "Big brother, let him go at fifty taels, isn't it too cheap, the one in the carriage is obviously a son, all dressed in white are fine silk, worth no less than a hundred taels, and there must be more good things on his body." ”
Liu Heng glared at the little leader and said: "No matter how good it is, you have to have a life, you don't see that the horse groom is cultivated, the lower plate is stable, the tiger has a bear waist, walks silently, it is clearly a grandmaster-level master, your eldest brother and I are only between the best, that son is even more terrifying, I am afraid that he is a monk, you have not seen it, I don't know, I have seen the monk with my own eyes." ”
"Those kinds of characters, each of them is a hundred enemies, under a sword, divided into gold and stones, when you meet this kind of person, a few lives are not enough, fifty taels is still good, people just don't want to pay attention to us, in the future, the trick will be highlighted, and no one else is making up their minds. ”
The carriage continued to move forward, and Bai Fengjiu smiled and said, "Wang Zhong, you seem to be very experienced in handling these things, and these bandits are also full of rules." ”
Wang Zhong said with a smile: "The villain used to help the family dart, and I often encountered this kind of thing at that time, and when I got out of the car, I showed my skills, then Liu Heng saw my strength, but he chose to solve it peacefully, and Liu Heng is also an old Jianghu, I am afraid that he also saw the identity of the young master monk, and he didn't dare to make a mistake." ”
