Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Appointment in the North City
Hearing the description, Zhao Yun was silent on the surface, but he slandered vigorously in his heart. Sure enough, it is the rich people of Zhumen who are evil, and they specialize in pitting the poor. A leaf of fire ginseng, the top existence in the first-order elixir, is better than the snake yin grass, and one plant is at least more than a thousand taels of silver, but the Xiao family only gave a few taels.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yun suddenly thought that the Xiao family seemed to have a medicine field in the Black Mountain.
"Zhao Yun, what do you want?"
"It's nothing, auntie, if you pick up something unknown in the future, remember to show it to me first, don't be deceived."
"Okay, I know, you go play, I'll go sell these medicinal herbs first." Aunt Liu smiled, Zhao Yun is really a warm-hearted good child, and he is worried that I will be deceived, but after all, I am a child, I have walked in the mountains for so many years and collected countless medicines, how can I be so easy to be deceived.
Looking at her back, Zhao Yun sighed, after all, he didn't say anything about the fire ginseng, for fear of making Aunt Liu angry, and her arms couldn't twist her thighs, not to mention the elephant legs of the Xiao family.
At night, Zhao Yun came to the place agreed with Xiao Wuyue, and they agreed to meet every three days in the future, and Zhao Yun instructed her to practice.
"Your Xiao family's strongest martial arts should be Xiao Yu's swordsmanship, right?"
"Yes, but I didn't learn it, I like to use whips."
"It doesn't matter what weapon you use, it's just as good as you like, your current cultivation is the sixth stage of cohesion?"
"Yes, my cultivation is progressing very slowly."
"At what age do you open the martial arts, and how long do you practice martial arts every day?"
"I opened my pulse at the age of five, and I practiced martial arts for about eight hours a day."
"That shouldn't be, it took three years to reach the sixth stage of cohesion."
Xiao Wuyue's expression was gloomy, she had actually worked very hard, but her cultivation was not happy, and she once thought that her talent was too poor, and said: "I always feel that my martial veins are like a bottomless pit, and no matter how much aura I absorb, I can't be satisfied." ”
"I've heard the old man say that some special martial arts need to be constantly cultivated in order to realize their potential, maybe you are a peerless genius!"
"Really?"
"Of course, let's ignore these for now, lay a good foundation, have you ever practiced the whipping method?"
"No, the whip method is too rare, and the Xiao family doesn't have it either."
"That's the best, don't practice fixed moves in the mortal realm, everything is based on basic skills, starting from tonight, we start practicing with fists and feet."
"Good!" Since she decided to practice with Zhao Yun, the little witch decided to listen to him and didn't refute anything.
Xiao Wuyue's foundation is much more solid than Zhao Yun imagined, it seems that he does practice a lot on weekdays, he shared his experience with her without reservation, and the two of them have been practicing from dark to dawn, and they are still in good spirits.
After separating, Xiao Wuyue returned to Xiao's house, and Zhao Yun walked out in the direction of Wang's house, just like when he saw Xiao Wuyue, he was still wearing a mask, and as soon as he entered Beicheng, someone greeted him and said, "Is it Young Master Long?" ”
"You are?"
"Master Wang asked me to wait for you here."
Zhao Yun sighed secretly, the Wang family's control of Beicheng was really good, and he was discovered as soon as he came in, and said, "Okay, lead the way." ”
When he arrived at Wang's house, Wang Xiong personally came out to greet him, which made Zhao Yun a little surprised, the other party should know that he was a junior, even if he came for his son's business, there was no need to go out to greet him in person.
"I've kept my seniors waiting!"
"It's been three days, and Long Gongzi hasn't come late, where did you wait for a long time, please!"
After sitting down, Wang Xiong was not in a hurry to talk about Wang Ze, but picked up the teacup and said, "How about Long Gongzi taste this tea." ”
Zhao Yun lifted the teacup, the moment he opened the lid, a fragrance of nature came to his face, and the needles in the tea jumped, making people instantly feel like they were in the wild bamboo forest, tasting a breath of refreshment, and breathing became much more comfortable.
"Good tea!"
"Where's the good?"
"It's good to drink."
Wang Xiong was slightly stunned, and then smiled, "Young Master Long is a wonderful person. ”
"What's the trick?"
"It's wonderful."
Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, and then laughed as well, "Ordinary people say that martial arts realm powerhouses are unattainable, but I didn't expect my predecessors to be so approachable." ”
"Changshan people only see Changshan, and only in Changshan, the martial arts realm will be considered a master, in fact, the martial arts are just the starting point of the martial arts."
"That being said, there are a few more people who can set foot on this starting point."
"That's right, there are hundreds of thousands of people in Changshan, and there are only a few who can set foot on this starting point, but I think the potential of these people is not worth mentioning compared to Long Gongzi."
Zhao Yun wondered, I have potential, I know, but the question is how do you know, this sentence is extremely high, which means that these martial arts realm powerhouses in Changshan County, including him and the county guard, are not as talented as Zhao Yun.
"Huh." Wang Xiong chuckled and continued: "In the battle with Ze'er that day, Long Gongzi did not do his best, and the old man can still see this. ”
"It's just a forced pretence, I've actually done my best, seniors don't call me Long Gongzi, just call me Zilong."
"Okay, refreshing, Zilong, then don't call me senior, if you don't dislike it, call Uncle Wang."
"Uncle Wang is too uplifting Zilong."
"Let's not be so polite, you and Ze'er Tu'er don't know each other, we have to communicate more in the future. I see that it is always inconvenient for you to reveal your identity, and I am not reluctant to do this, but if you need anything, you can find me, and if it is inconvenient to live in Dongcheng, you can come to Beicheng. The Wang family still has some status here. ”
Zhao Yun's eyelids moved slightly, thinking that this old guy would really be tempting, but where did you see the Dongcheng where I live? His head turned, and he suddenly remembered that the sixteen million taels of silver were not won by the little witch from the Wang family, and the Wang family could settle such a large sum of money so quickly, he must have known the identity of the little witch, and he could buy so much he won under that circumstance at that time, it must have a lot to do with him, maybe it was a gang.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yun was secretly shocked, this guy wouldn't think he was from the Xiao family, right? He knew that the feud between the Xiao family and the Wang family was as deep as the sea, and Old Man Wang wouldn't be unhappy to chop himself, right?
"What is Zilong thinking?" Wang Xiong was drinking tea, but his eyes were always staring at Zhao Yun, he had to find out if Zhao Yun was from the Xiao family, otherwise he really didn't worry about handing over Wang Ze to him for treatment.
"It's nothing, I'm thinking about sixteen million taels of silver."
Wang Xiong's eyelids raised, thinking that the young man was very good, but he still pretended to be surprised: "What do you mean?" ”
"I can't hide it, I have to apologize to Uncle Wang for this matter."
"Why do I get more confused the more I listen?"
"That's the case, before the fight with Ling Lang, I asked Xiao Wuyue of the Xiao family to press 200,000 taels and I won, but I didn't expect him to bet on the Wang family, causing Uncle Wang to lose a lot of silver."
"It turns out that the 200,000 taels were pressed by yourself, no wonder. The loss is nothing, since the market has opened, it is natural to admit defeat in the bet, and the Wang family did not cheat, and sent all 16 million taels to the Xiao family yesterday. ”
"Uncle Wang is righteous, but some people are not righteous, this money was originally mine, but it was taken away by the Xiao family."
"Is it not human?"
"No, Xiao Wuyue is still trustworthy, but the money was deducted by Xiao Bucai and his second uncle. Uncle Wang also knew about the Xiao family, although Xiao Wuyue was called the little witch, but in fact, the family status was not high. ”
"They don't know the money is yours?"
"Uncle Wang, you don't have to be tempted." Zhao Yun directly provoked and said: "I have nothing to do with the Xiao family, it's just that I met Xiao Wuyue by mistake." ”
Wang Xiong stared at his eyes and said with a smile: "Okay, I believe Zilong, but sixteen million taels is not a small amount, what are you going to do?" ”
Zhao Yun's eyelids moved slightly, this is to let himself deal with the Xiao family!
"I haven't thought about it yet, but my money isn't so easy to get."
"Then don't mention this matter for the time being, if you need help, feel free to say it, you know, as long as it is to deal with the Xiao family, the Wang family has an unshirkable responsibility. By the way, Ze'er's matter, do you really have a way? ”
"You can give it a try, whether you can succeed depends on whether Brother Wang can survive himself."
"Will it be dangerous?"
"Life is in danger!"
Wang Xiong hesitated, after all, he was his own son, he was still alive after being crazy, and if there was an accident, he would not be able to forgive himself.
Zhao Yun did not persuade, but quietly drank tea and waited, and after half a quarter of an hour, Wang Xiong let out a sigh and said, "Start now?" ”
Zhao Yun sighed secretly, it was really a strong man in the Martial Sect Realm, and he had the courage to do so, "I still need to prepare some elixir." ”
"You say."
"A ...... of trifolium ginseng"
"Poof!" Old Man Wang just wanted to say that the Wang family was not bad for money, but when he heard this first medicinal material, he squirted out a mouthful of tea, "Trifolium ginseng is a third-level elixir, and I am afraid that there is not a single third-level elixir in the entire Changshan County!" Besides, with Ze'er's cultivation, he can't withstand the medicinal power of the third-level elixir! ”
Zhao Yun just said casually, seeing his excited appearance, he suddenly felt bored, he originally wanted to fight the local tyrant, but he didn't expect the local tyrant to be so poor, "Then ten two-leaf ginseng!" ”
Wang Xiong took a deep breath and said, "Is it okay with other second-level elixirs?" ”
"It can be, but the effect is almost good, and the two-leaf ginseng is not?"
"It's not that it is nothing, the two-leaf ginseng in Changshan County is basically in the hands of the Xiao family, and the Xiao family has always cherished the broom, and the second-order top-level elixir of two-leaf ginseng is extremely limited in sales, especially for the Wang family."
"The Xiao family has a lot of two-leaf ginseng?"
"Of course, there are at least hundreds of two-leaf ginseng plants in the Xiao family's medicine field!"
"Hundreds?" Zhao Yun's eyes widened, as far as he knew, the shortest two-leaf ginseng would cost more than 100,000 taels of silver, and it was possible to have a few million years old. More than 100 two-leaf ginseng, isn't it worth more than 10 million silver taels? Isn't that exactly what he's lost? Is it providence?
As if he saw Zhao Yun's thoughts, Wang Xiong knocked on the table and said: "I advise you not to mess with your mind, the Xiao family's medicine field has at least two martial arts realm powerhouses in charge, and they usually don't leave an inch, and there are many traps, and there is no return." ”
"Uncle Wang is too worried, I'm not so blind. I heard that the Xiao family medicine field has been in business for many years, there should be more than two leaf ginseng, right? ”
