0037 Black cobblestone

Before dawn, the soldiers in the barracks had already gotten up and sweated like rain on the training ground. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Huhuhahe!"

A set of boxing techniques flowed smoothly, Zhou Chen exhaled a long breath, and a stream of hot air visible to the naked eye slowly flowed out from his mouth and nose, which was fire poisoning. What a martial artist in the late stage of the bone refining period must do every day is to exhaust the fire poison after forging bones in the body, until the yin and yang in the body are harmonized, and the bones are like white jade!

The last punch blasted out, the bones in his body crackled non-stop, Zhou Chen slowly stretched his body, his face was full of fascination and intoxication, every change in his body was like taking a spiritual poison, which was fascinated and intoxicating, and he couldn't extricate himself.

When the morning training was over, the Huotou Army brought out all kinds of liquid food, some of which even had a strong smell, and the boiled demon beast milk exuded a cold breath. Demon beast milk is an indispensable food for martial artists in the bone refining period, and long-term drinking can eat away at the fire poison in the body and achieve the effect of yin and yang harmony.

When Zhou Chen slowly drank the demon beast milk, he sat quietly for a while, and then washed and changed a set of clothes, and then walked to the gate of the barracks.

When I walked outside the door, I saw a man dressed in luxurious clothes strolling from afar.

"This guy is such a, why didn't I see it before. Shaking his head helplessly, Zhou Chen turned around and registered the information at a soldier standing guard, tidied up his clothes a little, and then walked towards Liu Xiao.

"The virtuous nephew's dress doesn't look like a comprador object, but like a bandit. Seeing Zhou Chen coming, Liu Xiao laughed and stepped forward to quip.

Zhou Chen pursed his lips and replied, "Uncle is dressed like this, do you want to see the second aunt?"

"Well, while going, even my uncle dares to joke. Liu Xiao's old face turned red, and he slapped Zhou Chen's shoulder, which hurt a lot.

Shaking his head helplessly, Zhou Chen rubbed his shoulders, followed Liu Xiao, and walked towards the commercial street in the city.

The current Liu Xiao can be said to be in the limelight, not only has the cultivation of refining qi, but also wears expensive and luxurious clothes, walking around the city, just like a moving vault, which makes Zhou Chen call out in his heart.

In a pharmacy, when buying Sanjiu Poria San, Zhou Chen deliberately asked for three copies, a total of more than 200 yuan, but Liu Xiao didn't blink his eyes, and directly took out a special silver ticket made of gold from his body, and the store had to find more than 9,700 yuan, all of which were strung together in a string and placed in the middle of the back basket behind Zhou Chen. There are three purple orchids for a thousand years, the price is more than 700 yuan, nine bundles of ten thousand bone grass, the price is more than 300 yuan, one piece of winter rock cordyceps is 100 yuan, and ten is 1,000 yuan. These medicinal materials are expensive and have a wide range of effects, among which Cordyceps winterstone went to seven medicinal herb stores to buy it.

When more than 20 kinds of medicinal materials were almost purchased, and there was not much left of Liyuan in Zhou Chen's back basket, then he realized what a loser it was to practice martial arts.

Nowadays, there is still a shortage of night insects and arcades, these two things, according to the instructions of the owner of the medicinal herb shop, it is best to go to the market street, where the sale is some rare objects, all brought by the merchants, and there are also objects that the shops themselves hunt or pick up from the mountains.

Liu Xiao is also half of the head snake, Qingyang County is still relatively familiar, with Zhou Chen in the spacious street around the corner, and finally into the north of the city of the market street, here a street is set up stalls, no shops and the like, here is said to be the backer of Qingyang County Yamen, no one dares to make trouble here, the total annual tax is as high as 800,000 yuan, accounting for one-tenth of the tax revenue of Qingyang County, the prosperity of the market street can be seen.

Entering from the entrance of Market Street, several officials were patrolling it, they obviously also knew Liu Xiao, and when they saw Liu Xiao coming, they were all stunned, and immediately stepped forward to salute, attracting the surrounding vendors and discussions.

"Lord Catcher, but what mission are you here, do you still want to buy something?" a respectful voice came from among the officials.

Following the voice, it was a servant who was about forty years old, and there was no Yuanzhu behind him, so he thought it was already at the level of a small leader of the servant.

Seeing Zhou Chen's puzzled face, Liu Xiao nodded and said, "This is a certain nephew, I heard that there is a big competition in the army, so I brought him to buy some medicinal materials to improve his cultivation." ”

"I see, I'm so sorry to disturb my adult's Yaxing. If the little boy encounters someone who deliberately raises the price, just shout, and we will find justice for the little boy. ”

The middle-aged little leader nodded and said respectfully. Although he doesn't value Zhou Chen much, Liu Xiao is here, of course, he has to give a few thin noodles.

However, this little boy shouted so that Zhou Chen's goosebumps rose. He didn't expect that this Liu Xiao was still quite powerful, and he could still eat in Qingyang County.

"Virtuous nephew, there have been opportunities for cooperation between this county and the county, so the officials of Qingyang County still recognize so-and-so, but they came today without saying hello, so they thought I was here for a secret visit. Liu Xiao opened his mouth and said, satisfying some of Zhou Chen's curiosity.

A smile appeared on the face of the middle-aged little leader, and then he nodded and smiled: "My lord, there are many of our people in this market street." The small ones don't disturb the interest of adults. ”

Liu Xiao said "um", and then walked towards the crowd, followed by Zhou Chen.

"Third child, you and Lao Ma follow the adults, warn those hooligans in the market, if anyone dares to take the opportunity to raise the price, let them get out forever. In addition, find a clever point, record the words and deeds of the Lord Kuai, and submit them to the back hall of the yamen after the shift change. Looking at Liu Xiao and Zhou Chen, who had disappeared, the middle-aged little leader turned around and ordered, a solemnity flashed in his eyes, and the smile on his face also disappeared in an instant.

"Order!" one of the officials nodded in a deep voice, and with a wave of his hand, he blended into the crowd with the other two officials.

"We'll leave the rest alone, let them go. Seeing the three officials who had blended into the crowd, the middle-aged little leader sighed.

......

Zhou Chen glanced at the flow of people behind him without a trace, and said with a straight smile: "This is not worrying about you, uncle, and even sent someone to follow you." ”

Liu Xiao said "um" softly, and then whispered: "They are just on the surface, and there is one who follows secretly, specifically recording my words and deeds, don't worry about such things, go shopping with peace of mind." ”

The two of them walked slowly along the market street, and the things sold on the stalls became more strange, and the prices increased exponentially, much more precious than the goods outside. Therefore, the customers who can come here are also worth a lot of money.

A stall with some miscellaneous items and a few bottles and cans. Zhou Chen's footsteps stopped, squatted down, and picked up a small bottle with a note on it, which was the night song insect that Zhou Chen had been looking for for a long time.

Just as he was about to get up, the mirror in his mind that had been immersed for a long time suddenly vibrated abruptly, stirring his mind into chaos. Squatting down again, his gaze swept over the objects on the stall.

After a moment, Zhou Chen's gaze rested on a black cobblestone.

The stone is very rough, with a shallow honeycomb layer of holes, which looks like aeolian sandstone, but it is very evenly spread throughout the cobblestone.

When his hand touched the palm-sized boulder, the mirror in his mind fluttered again.
