What happened was basically not much different from Xiao Tong's conjecture, Bu Lao came to live in Qiao Yuancheng three years ago, and he has been teaching Chapter 70

Private school as a business.

But because of his pedantic and arrogant character, he was dismissed again and again without accident, and ended up with the same result as when he was in Mandarin Town, that is, it was difficult to survive.

These creditors are not much different from what Xiao Tong thought, they are all the owners of the inn, the shopkeeper of the rice station, etc., because the money of the restaurant has been in arrears for a long time, so they are blocked here.

Xiao Tong originally thought that this number must be very large, but with the number reported by the creditors one by one, after a little calculation, it was only more than two hundred and eighty taels of silver, which couldn't help but make Xiao Tong's heart light at the same time, but he couldn't help crying and laughing.

The more than three hundred taels of silver in his bag have not moved, but he didn't expect that as soon as he met this gentleman today, they all came in handy, and he returned them to everyone one by one.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please return the old arrears ....... ”

Xiao Tong stumbled and almost laughed out loud, these ten taels, twenty taels, at most fifty taels of silver, there is even a note of arrears, it seems that this old gentleman's pedantic temperament has not changed, no wonder it is so sloppy.

Looking at the vegetable yellow on Bu Lao's face again, it was obviously a long-term hunger, but he couldn't help but feel a burst of pity in Xiao Tong's heart, and reprimanded the creditor who looked down on him for repaying the debt, while persuading Bu Lao to use some food again.

"Hey, Xiao Tong, you don't need to persuade you, the old man is really not hungry...... Grunt....... ”

Obviously, the stomach was already hungry like thunder, but he still had a good face and didn't want to accept the grace of his own meal, which made Xiao Tong speechless.

However, the shopkeeper on the side, in order to sell more meals, also persuaded him hard, and Bu Laocai "reluctantly made it difficult" and began to catch chopsticks to enjoy.

Xiao Tong carefully observed this old man on the side, although the other party was poor, but the white green clothes were still cleanly washed, and his face was clear, revealing a burst of elegant daring, neat hair, ten slender fingers, just this appearance, who could see that the other party was a poor poor poor person who couldn't afford to eat.

This reminded Xiao Tong of his previous life, in order to find a job, he also had this kind of experience at that time, sleeping in a train station, eating in a small restaurant, that kind of suffering, as if it was yesterday.

But if you think about it, you really can't blame others, you can only blame yourself for not being able to adapt to that society, and you can't blame the society for not adapting to yourself.

After a little silence, Xiao Tong had an idea, and was ready to arrange Bu Laoxian to Chang Wang and Xihui, so as not to let the old man continue to suffer from this displacement.

"Shopkeeper, may I ask which direction is Dongchengwang in Qiao Yuancheng?"

At this time, it was already dusk, but Bu Lao was still eating slowly, not in a hurry, Xiao Tong couldn't help but smile slightly bitterly, and took advantage of this time to ask the shopkeeper about the location of Dongchengwang that Chang Wang said.

"Oh, you said Dongcheng Wang, that's far away, why don't you call a stagecoach, and you can get to ...... in a moment. ”

Xiao Tong was stunned when he heard this, and then he reacted, in this world, just like in the previous life, there is a kind of "taxi", but here it is called a stagecoach, and it is also a kind of mechanical car.

Just as he was nodding his head, he saw two samurai dressed in patrol clothes come in from outside the store, and while talking, they walked in, obviously also diners.

“...... By the way, where is the Dongcheng Division flustered, is there something big that can't be done?"

"Khan! I also just found out, it seems that there is a business store in Dongcheng Wang's side that has gone out of water, and the guys like Dongcheng Division have to be busy tonight....... ”

Xiao Tong, who was giving the shopkeeper a meal silver, suddenly moved in his heart, and a feeling of uneasiness rose in his heart, and he stuffed all the twenty taels of silver in his hand into the shopkeeper's hand, and hurriedly walked towards the middle-aged patrolman.

"This errand officer is polite, may I ask which shop in Dongchengwang has gone out of the water?"

The two guards were just chatting casually, and they didn't speak loudly, but they didn't expect to be heard by Xiao Tong, who was a few feet away, and when they looked at it, it turned out to be a teenager.

Although the other party was polite, it made the two extremely uncomfortable, and they were about to reprimand angrily, but when they saw the young man's eyes, they suddenly had a terrifying coercion that made their hearts beat like thunder.

"Yes...... Be...... It is a ...... of a sushi store. ”

When Xiao Tong heard that it was not a teahouse, his heart had not yet settled down, but he heard the official stammering a sentence again.

"And the ...... next to it A tea house ....... ”

Sure enough, Xiao Tong turned around and was about to greet Bu Lao, but he didn't know when, Bu Lao had already packed the leftovers and followed.

"Dongcheng is prosperous, I am familiar with it, I don't need a post weapon, let's go to the alley, the road is more ....... ”

Watching Xiao Tong and Bu Lao hurriedly leave, the two officials only felt that the coercion was loosened, their legs and stomachs swirled, and they almost didn't sit on the ground.

"My dear mother, alas, why are this kid's eyes so scary, like a fierce beast ....... ”

The official at the entrance of the store wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, still afraid of himself.

"Dude, don't say it...... If you talk too much, you will lose ....... ”

The officials of these small county towns are just some foreign martial artists, their cultivation is low, and they don't have enough knowledge, so they naturally don't know enough about the power of the divine soul that is released from this kind of momentum, and they only regard it as a means of the immortal family, Xiao Tong and the others walked far away, and they didn't dare to talk about it anymore.

At this moment, the sky has begun to fall, although the lampstone on the main street of the official road is brightly lit, but the alley is also a little dark.

However, this also happened to be conducive to Xiao Tong's light technique, dragging Bu Lao and rushing forward in the direction he pointed out, like two sharp arrows.

Xiao Tong already had a premonition, as if Xiao Junru would not let himself go so easily, but since he separated from the Blood Sword Venerable, Yun Cai'er had covered all his qi, and even if he was a master of Jindan, it would be difficult to find his existence.

The other party can't catch his own line of hiding, then he will definitely start from elsewhere, this is already something that Xiao Tong has already expected, but after thinking about it, it seems that his mother and several family members are under the protection of the Eighth Emperor, and they should be safe, even if Xiao Jun jumps off the wall like a dog, he can't hurt any of his relatives, except for his father-in-law Xiao Huaiyan, of course.

However, the value of the existence of the stepfather is very great, and it is the only bargaining chip that the other party holds in his hand and bargains with himself, and Xiao Tong will not easily endanger his safety if he thinks about the other party.

Moreover, although Xiao Huaiyan lost power, his prestige was still too high in the old dynasty and the Tieluo army, and Xiao Junru naturally did not dare to be too unscrupulous.

And he has a jade pendant in his hand, and his martial arts are extremely strong, even if Xiao Junru wants to persecute and threaten himself, it is extremely difficult to control the proportion, Xiao Tong is in the gap between the royal family and the old emperor, and it is expected that neither party will dare to hurt his relatives easily.

But there is no doubt that Xiao Tong is also walking a tightrope, this delicate balance, as well as the faint existence of third-party checks and balances, will never last long, after all, his side is still the weakest force, and it may be crushed at any time.

Of course, the current situation is far from being as simple as he imagined, and it is precisely because there are too many variables that Xiao Tong has always had a faint sense of unease, but he didn't expect to start from Chang Wang and Xihui.

Undoubtedly, Xiao Junru's despicable means are really useful, and he also thought of the old feelings at the beginning, so he helped Chang Wang and Xihui, but if these two countrymen lose their lives because of their help, no matter what, it is difficult to make Xiao Tong feel at ease.

If he used this method to force Xiao Tong to show up, he would undoubtedly succeed, but Bo also succeeded in provoking the anger in Xiao Tong's heart.

Although he was in a hurry, Xiao Tong had secretly decided to help the Eighth Prince in an all-round way, and after rushing to Jinghua this time, he would hand over the jade pendant to the Eighth Prince, at this moment, Xiao Tong's heart was filled with a deep sense of helplessness.

What I originally thought was a bit too simple, I just thought that if my strength increased, I could control the situation, but compared with this kind of giant room, I still showed that my strength was weak.

No matter, no matter!

Anyway, he has no intention of getting involved in this national treasure, it's just a clue, just hand it over, as for the rescue of his father-in-law, it's just a bargaining chip!

There were many thoughts in his mind, but in the end, he finally found a way out, although the eighth prince seemed to be in his heart with him, but in Xiao Tong's subconscious, he always felt that he couldn't believe it all, but now that the situation is like this, it can only be like this.

"Huh!"

Fang Cai took care of the serious matter in his mind, and it was not until he was about to arrive in Dongchengwang that Xiao Tong suddenly discovered that Bu Lao could also light up the exercises, and it was quite subtle, even if he ran with all his might, he couldn't feel that the arm he was holding with one hand had the strength to drag and drag.

The other party has been following him with his own light skills, which can't help but surprise Xiao Tong in his heart.

"What do you see? Why did the old man say that he didn't know martial arts?"

Xiao Tong was stunned, recalling the experience of his predecessor, it seemed that he had been following the old man to learn literature, and it was as if he had never asked the old man if he could do martial arts, of course, this was something that he had no chance to know.

"Old Bu, it's so hard for us to be deceived by your old man, it turns out that you are also a foundation building immortal ....... ”

All of a sudden, the Divine Domain deduction came to such a result, but Xiao Tong himself couldn't believe it for a while.

A foundation building immortal, in the memory of his predecessor, has always been treated coldly by the foolish people in the countryside, even in this Qiao Yuan City, he will be forced to pay debts by a group of small people.

"Immortals, immortals, immortals are bullshit, humanity is not cultivated, and when you are old, you are just a monk, dare to call it an immortal ....... ”

Suddenly, Bu Lao became anxious, as if he despised his own self-cultivation, not to mention a trace of self-pride, and what was even more rare was that the other party had always been self-respecting and elegant, and even scolded "bullshit" when it came to cultivation, which shows that the disdain for cultivation is really not hypocritical.

However, Xiao Tong didn't care about talking to Bu Lao Shen anymore, because Dongchengwang had already arrived.

Close to a hundred feet away, the lights are brilliant, the voices of people are boiling, and there are several houses in the fire looming, a cloud of dense fog, and the people around the audience cough continuously.

The fire was obviously about to be extinguished by the well-trained Dongcheng Division patrol sailors on the side, and the water dragons were already starting to surround the remaining storefronts with all their might, and it was estimated that they would all be extinguished soon.

It was about to reach the crowd, although Xiao Tong was in a hurry, he had to slow down his body, and he and Bu Lao hurriedly walked towards the center of the fire field, a thick smell of burning, smoke, and water vapor were intertwined into a strange smell, which made Xiao Tong frown secretly.

"Who are you, leave quickly, don't disturb the official family's ...... to save water. ”
