Chapter Ninety-Eight: A Powerful Old Man

Lu Yong had already taken the jade pendant, and Gu Qiuyu also mentioned to Lu Yong during this period that he wanted to redeem the jade pendant with an item of equal value, but Lu Yong was resolute and had no intention of returning the jade pendant.

Without the jade pendant, Gu Qiuyu was a little lost, he rubbed the note in his palm and left the wooden house with the two of them.

It's time to leave, the war in the south is not going on, and if Shi Guo wins a big victory, he will also leave for Yang Kingdom.

Gu Qiuyu stood in front of the wooden house, looking at the south, with all kinds of feelings in his heart, it has been eleven years since he left! It's time to go back.

At noon, Gu Qiuyu straightened the sword box behind his back, and took Liu Yiyue and Meng Jingchu to leave the place that changed their lives.

And the future path of the three of them has also changed as they left here, and they have gone to a fork in the road where no one knows the outcome.

The three of them walked along the mountain road, and when they passed through Gushi Town, they went in to buy some food and water, and bought a few winter clothes, and they didn't stay there too much, but this winter clothes were really ugly, and Liu Yiyue wore them like a village girl.

Gushi Town is too small, and the news is closed, Gu Qiuyu is now eager to know what the results of the battle in the south are, so that he can plan the next step.

After another half a day, they finally arrived at Bronco Town.

Compared with Gushi Town, this Wild Horse Town has a larger area, a large population, and a complete range of industries, but last time I heard Lu Qianli say that this place has been occupied by a group of organizations called Freemasonry, I don't know what the situation is now.

The Masonic Gu Qiuyu had also seen it, and he had a very bad impression of them.

At the beginning of the decline of each dynasty, there is a figure of this group of people, but they are called differently.

Historically, there have also been some cities that have occupied a few cities, developed and grew, annexed other small powers, and finally developed into states, but most of them were bandit businesses that made the people suffer.

In fact, on the other hand, these Freemasons also have their own difficulties, most of them are some peasant households who do not have enough to eat, and some people take up arms just to have something to eat.

What is the right and wrong of this?

Anyway, in Gu Qiuyu's eyes, he was against these.

The three of them walked to the city of Mustang Town, only to see the city gate wide open, some pedestrians coming and going, and there were several soldiers wearing Mingguo costumes standing on the city wall, one by one listless in the afterglow of the evening.

Mustang City is not big, and the location is also at the junction of Shi and Ming, but it is further to the west, and then to the west is the plateau, and there is no road here.

It is a city that is insignificant in the eyes of the two countries, and the only advantage is the lush forest where Gu Qiuyu was before, which is also a major wood-producing place in Mingguo.

However, only the people in Mingguo live in wooden houses and stone houses, and then go inside is between desert and grassland, and most of the people are nomadic, so there is not much demand for wood in Mingguo.

This also makes Wild Horse City a chicken-like existence, making it a pity that Mingguo's food is tasteless and abandoned.

The three of them went to an inn in the middle of the city, ordered some food, and now that it was about to get dark, they were going to rest here for the night.

At this moment, five men with weapons came in from the inn, each with a strip of black and red cloth on their heads, who were Masonic people.

On the road just now, Gu Qiuyu noticed that although this Freemason Sect withdrew from Wild Horse City, there were still many believers left in the city.

Gu Qiuyu saw this kind of thing for the first time, and he was inevitably a little curious, and he was very interesting.

The group of Freemasons looked around the inn, and saw that most of them were merchants selling timber, and they didn't notice Gu Qiuyu and the others, so they found a place to sit down, ordered a table full of wine and food, and began to drink.

Gu Qiuyu looked at the sky outside, and saw that some shops had not yet closed, so he explained to the two of them, got up and walked out.

He needed to buy some clothes, and he also had to buy two weapons for the two of them, and now that he was out of the mountains, he really couldn't do it without weapons.

Not far from the inn, he saw a clothing store and walked in directly, only to see that it was deserted inside, and even the counter guys looked listless.

It is no wonder that ordinary people buy fabrics to make their own clothes, and how many households can buy ready-made clothes.

When Gu Qiuyu first entered the door, he found that next to the plaque of this clothing store, a fierce horse was drawn, and he didn't know which chamber of commerce's logo it was.

When the man saw someone coming from the store, he immediately became energetic, but then he saw Gu Qiuyu's bloated peasant clothes, and sat back again.

Gu Qiuyu didn't pay attention to this guy's expression, and looked at it to himself, to his delight, the clothes in this store were all of high quality, and the workmanship was also very fine.

"I didn't expect this small Mustang City to have such a store. ”

Gu Qiuyu was looking at the clothes while muttering to himself, and the guy in the store rolled his eyes when he heard it, and said in his heart, "You still want to buy the clothes here as a farmer, dream." ”

But the Chamber of Commerce has a clear rule that any guest who enters the store must not be driven away, and the guy is just saying in his heart at this time that if he is heard by the shopkeeper, then he will definitely be punished.

"Big brother, what do you want to buy, hurry up, we're going to close here. ”

Gu Qiuyu took a look at it and estimated the size that the three of them could wear. With a lot of clothes, I came to the counter.

The guy in the store took a look at it and said, "Guest officer, a total of fifteen taels of silver, not to mention anything else, the guest officer's vision is really good, that set of brocade silk cotton is from Yangguo, even this Mingguo can only be worn by that big family." Wearing it for your own lady is definitely eye-lifting!"

Gu Qiuyu heard this guy speak so quickly, and he couldn't help but feel helpless, just like this.

As soon as he reached the door, Gu Qiuyu suddenly stopped, "Excuse me, where is there an arms store near here?"

"Go out and turn right, and you can see it. ”

"Thank you!"

Out of the clothing store, Gu Qiuyu followed the path pointed by the guy, came to the door of a weapon shop, looked up at the plaque, and sure enough, there was a fierce horse engraved on the side of the plaque, exactly the same as the clothing store just now.

He shook his head and said in his heart, "It turns out that they are all the same, but it can be seen from the clothing store just now that the items in this weapon store are not too bad." ”

But as soon as he walked into the weapon shop, Gu Qiuyu was disappointed, only to see that the store was empty, only two rusty knives were placed in the corner, and the rest of the place, there was not a single weapon.

"Young man, I want to buy something. ”

An old voice rang out.

"Old man, I want to buy some weapons. ”

"What kind of weapons? You have also seen this shop, some time ago the Freemasons seized Mustang City, snatched all the weapons in my shop, and said that they would send me some silver when they left, but they still haven't seen anything to this day. ”

The old man looked like he was in his sixties, with half-white hair, sitting on a wooden chair, squinting his eyes, holding a smoking pot in his mouth, looking pleasant, and there was no trace of the anger or sadness of the ransacked shop.

Suddenly, the sword box behind Gu Qiuyu trembled slightly.

The voice was so soft that ordinary people couldn't detect it, but the old man slowly opened his eyes and looked at Gu Qiuyu.

Gu Qiuyu's heart tightened, and he hurriedly secretly mobilized his internal qi to communicate with the seven swords behind him, and he knew that he had met a mysterious master again.

The old man's breath was calm, and he looked into Gu Qiuyu's eyes, as if he was thinking about something.

Seeing this, Gu Qiuyu was even more convinced of this person's extraordinary, and looking at that appearance, he seemed to know something about the Seven Swords.

"There's something interesting about you, I don't know what it is, but can you please show it to me?"

The old man slowly straightened up, a powerful aura burst out, the whole person's momentum changed greatly, and a pair of eyes emitted a sharp light, which made people feel afraid.

"It's bad, this person's internal qi is so strong, I rarely see it in my life, even Lu Yong's internal qi is less than half of him!"

While being nervous in his heart, Gu Qiuyu was also looking for a way out everywhere, and he could use his internal qi to inspect, and he couldn't help but be frightened, the whole house was shrouded in the old man's internal qi at this time, and there was no flaw at all.
