"Master, we can't say such ugly words, we just want to express our kindness to the Lord of the Terracotta Division, how can you understand it as flattery?" said an elder. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Yes, if our Li family can make good friends with the big men of the Soldiers and Horses, it will also be beneficial to the development of the Li family, if we can use this to become a big clan in southern Xinjiang, the ancestors will only have a light on their faces. Another clan elder said.

"Changqing, in fact, this is all for the Li family, you also know that this martial arts assessment is an opportunity for our Li family, as long as a child can enter the provincial assessment, he will be able to show his face in the provincial capital, if he is lucky and is valued by some big people, our Li family will also rise because of this." ”

"Yes, Changqing, you don't know it, some township-level martial artists have gone to the weaker townships around to sign up for the top ten, our Jiangcheng strength is not strong, there will be many foreign warriors at that time, if you can't occupy a certain advantage, then with the strength of Yang'er, it is also difficult to get the first. ”

The elders and clan elders turned over and over these few words, which was nothing more than asking Li Changqing to put the overall situation first, put down his body and make good friends with the adults of the Soldiers and Horses, in exchange for some preferential treatment in the martial arts assessment.

But this is simply ridiculous in Li Changqing's opinion, as the head of the Li family, the Jiangcheng Mansion has already sent someone to contact him, and the person who came clearly told him that the martial arts assessment is the most sacred selection in the Chu State, and every assessment will be supervised by the adults of the Terracotta Division, and these adults from the Terracotta Division are absolutely loyal to the Chu State, fair and just, and there will be no favoritism.

Of course, Li Changqing also told the elders and clan elders, but how could they believe it? After staying in Jiangcheng for a long time, their vision and pattern have long been limited, and they still think that the methods of those small forces in Jiangcheng to tie up with the Li family are also applicable to the adults of the Terracotta Division, which is simply stupid!

Not to mention whether the adults of the Terracotta Division are fair, just as far as the Li family is concerned, people will take a fancy to it? If you really take some vulgar things to make friends, it will only make people dissatisfied, and they will think that you are begging for food!

Li Changqing wouldn't say these words, because he knew that the elders and clan elders wouldn't listen to them at all, and saying them would make these people angry and embarrassed, so he simply kept silent and turned a deaf ear to the words of the elders and clan elders.

The elders of the Li family and the clan said that their saliva was dry, and they found that they still couldn't move Li Changqing, so they shook their sleeves and left, and said at the end: "The head of the family, if you don't go, we will go by ourselves, but there is one thing we can say first, if we say that we move the adults of the Soldiers and Horses, there will be nothing to do with you and Li Rong at that time!"

"Hmph!" Li Changqing's response was a stinky face, and he was still in a hurry to instruct Li Rong on his cultivation, too lazy to talk to these guys who sat in the well and watched the sky.

Besides, Li Rong, after more than an hour of study, Li Rong has preliminarily mastered some basic content about the formation diagram, including material smelting, graphic depiction, etc., which are the most basic and superficial things, and they are limited to theory.

"The Illustrated Array Path is a study from shallow to deep, and the content is all-encompassing, but it still needs to be practiced repeatedly to truly grasp it. Li Rong opened his eyes and had a plan for what he was going to do next.

"Rong'er, are you in the house?" At this time, Li Changqing's voice came from outside.

"Daddy, you're here. Li Rong hurriedly got up, opened the door, and welcomed Li Changqing in.

Li Changqing entered the room, sat at the round table with his butt, and said with a sigh: "Rong'er, how is your cultivation progressing? If there is anything you don't understand, just ask me, don't worry that I will scold you." ”

Li Rong nodded and said, "The child understands." ”

After speaking, Li Rong seemed to think of something, and opened his mouth to ask, "Dad, do you know where to sell spirit boards?"

"Lingban, what do you want that thing for?" Li Changqing glanced at Li Rong in slight surprise.

Li Rong pointed to the book on the table and said, "I happened to see it in the book, saying that it can be used to practice carving the formation diagram, and I am a little curious about what this thing looks like." ”

Li Changqing laughed and said: "The spirit plate is indeed used as a material for practicing and carving the formation diagram, that thing is not available to us, only apprentices who follow the formation master to learn the formation diagram will buy it, if you really want to see it, you can go to the Treasure Pavilion to have a look." ”

"Treasure Pavilion ......" Li Rong chewed on the name, thinking in his heart.

"By the way, Dad, ...... you came this time" Li Rong wrote down the Treasure Pavilion and began to ask Li Changqing about the purpose of his visit.

Li Changqing didn't make a fuss, and briefly said the matter of the council hall. Li Rong listened carefully and was noncommittal, after all, he was a newcomer and didn't know much about the officialdom of this world, but if this happened in the Mo Dynasty, then he felt that the way of those elders and clan elders might really work.

However, since Li Changqing strongly opposed this matter, Li Rong naturally would not say anything unpleasant to him.

The father and son chatted for a long time, Li Changqing got up and was about to leave, but Li Rong suddenly stopped Li Changqing and asked, "Dad, I plan to retreat for a period of time before the martial arts assessment, do you know anything that will not be disturbed?"

"You want to retreat?" Li Changqing was a little strange, but he didn't delve into it, and immediately said: "If you are brave enough, there is an abandoned mine cave in our Li family that is very quiet, and there are many poisonous insects and beasts living in the surrounding forests, and few people usually go there." ”

Li Rong's eyes lit up: "Then choose there, I want to cultivate quietly, I don't want to be disturbed." ”

"It's okay, I'll also ask the people below not to approach there at will. Li Changqing naturally had no opinion, handed over the map with the location of the mine to Li Rong, and said, "Is it really okay for you to be there alone?"

Li Rong smiled and shook his head: "Dad, don't worry, I can take care of myself now." ”

Li Changqing didn't say anything more, and sent someone to send more than 100 taels of silver and a set of weapons, and asked Li Rong to choose a few to take for self-defense.

Li Rong checked the weapon, chose a spear and a strong bow, and left the Li family with a silver ticket.

As soon as Li Rong left, the elders and clan elders of the Li family came back with black faces, Li Changqing happened to see this scene, guessed in his heart, and couldn't help laughing.

Those elders and clan elders were ridiculed by Li Changqing, and their faces became more and more gloomy, but when they thought of the gray nose they touched at the gate of Jiangcheng Mansion, they didn't say a word in their hearts, and walked past Li Changqing silently.

At this time, in the backyard of the Jiangcheng Mansion, the Jiangcheng City Guard, who had sent everyone from the Li family, came to a courtyard and called softly inside: "Lord Liu, I have sent the people of the Li family away, do you have any other orders?"

The gate of the courtyard opened softly, and the middle-aged man Liu Guard, who had a relationship with Li Rong, walked out, and said to the Jiangcheng City Guard: "Your Excellency is responsible for Jiangcheng's martial arts assessment this time, and your identity is particularly sensitive, you don't want to let the idlers wait half a step closer to the courtyard in the future, I don't want to hear someone gossip about adults after returning to the imperial capital." ”

Jiangcheng City Shou shrank violently and said with a little trepidation: "I also ask Lord Liu for forgiveness, I was negligent for a while, if it is because of this season...... If the adult's name is questioned, then I am really to blame. ”

"Well, you stand down. Guard Liu nodded and gave the order to evict the guests.

Jiang Chengcheng bowed and turned to leave.
