Chapter Seventy-Three: Lianyun Bully, Door-to-door Provocation
Back in Lianyun City, Chi Caiwei found an inn to live in because she wanted to live here for a long time, and Qi Shou came to the residence of the old man who sold books according to the address given by the old man.
Coming here, Qi Shou instantly felt a little familiar.
"This is not where the Witch Forge lives......
Looking at the narrow alley, Qi Shou immediately remembered that He Changfeng had asked him to come to Lianyun City to obtain the Dan Furnace before, and it was near here.
However, the specific location Qi Shou remembers clearly, in the past 20 years, many of the people living here are ordinary people, and they have long been vicissitudes.
Time was pressing, and Qi Shou had to hurry up and send Danxia Amber back, so he didn't waste time looking for Wu Yin's residence, but went straight to the residence of the old man who sold books.
The old man's house lived in the deepest part of the alley, and there was a small courtyard full of miscellaneous items.
Qi Shou walked in, and the old man immediately greeted him.
"Shaoxia, you're here."
"Just now I found all the cheats that I collected with "Qiu Yungong", and they are all here."
The old man said, and brought a stack of books to Qi Shou.
Qi Shou took the book and nodded: "It's troublesome." ”
Qi Shou looked at it, and the old man explained on the side.
"These books were collected in a declining sect when I traveled around the Liang Kingdom in my early years."
"The head of the sect is a good person, and he was worried that the secret books of the sect would be lost, so he gave me all these books at that time."
As he spoke, the old man's vicissitudes of life showed a look of embarrassment.
"I really miss the days when I was out and about."
"You've been out and about?" Qi Shou asked curiously.
"Yes, I've only settled down in Lianyun City in the last few years."
"Now that I'm old and can't walk, I sell books in Lianyun City to make a living."
The old man came to Qi Shou's side and picked up a secret book: "Don't underestimate these books, although most of them are mainland goods, they are all collected by me for many years, and some of them are also very precious." ”
Qi Shou nodded, and continued to rummage through those books for the fragments of "Ink Dance Blue Dragon Armor".
What this old man said is not wrong, these cheats are indeed treasures that can be met but not sought.
"Don't look at all mainland goods, but some are from different sects, different people's hands, some of them will write their experiences, and some capable people will improve the exercises, maybe which one is used by which great power in the immortal cultivation world, it is precious."
"It's just that here, ordinary books occupy most of them, and there are very few cheats that can really be used."
"Moreover, most of these cheats are used by foreign sects in Dashun, there is no inheritance in Dashun, few people practice, if you don't have a certain amount of experience and teacher teaching, your own cultivation is likely to go astray."
"And then again, how can those monks who have a certain amount of experience look down on these low-end mainland goods, the only advantage of these cheats is that they are relatively rare."
"If you happen to meet someone who likes to collect, maybe they will buy one or two copies, otherwise they will basically not open on weekdays."
The old man said slowly, taking Qi Shou as the object of confiding.
However, Qi Shou kept looking down at those books, and he didn't know how much he listened to what the old man said.
Seeing that Qi Shou didn't squeak, the old man didn't bother anymore and returned to the house.
Qi Shou rummaged again and again, but he didn't find any clues.
"Alas, it's hard."
Qi Shou sighed.
There is only the second half of the spiritual realm part of "Ink Dance Green Dragon Armor", which is even more disturbing than making him unable to see this part.
"Uncle, is there nothing else besides these?" Qi Shou got up and asked towards the room.
The old man slowly walked out of the room, took a glass of water and handed it to Qi Shou: "That's all there is left in my place." ”
"In addition to me, there are some people who have bought it before, and when I went out of the stall before, I was confiscated by the Snake Gang because it was not enough for the stall fee."
"I don't know if there's any book in it that the young man wants."
"The Serpents? Those two guys at the bazaar today? Qi Shou asked.
"That's right, it's them." The old man sighed.
"The Crazy Snake Gang is a rogue gang that has emerged in Lianyun City in the past two years, and I don't know who organized it, and they have collected booth fees at various stalls."
"It turns out that they are not from Lianyun City." Qi Shou thought that those two people were from Lianyun City Mansion, and he was still thinking about why he treated this old man like this.
The old man sighed and said, "Lianyun City Mansion won't do this. ”
"The paving of this Lianyun Market comes from all over the world, even outside Dashun, and the Lianyun City Mansion will never manage these things."
"As long as you pay the money in Lianyun City Mansion, you can set up a stall here to do business."
"Unless there is too much strife, resulting in a disturbance of order, the Lianyun City Mansion will take action."
Qi Shou touched his chin: "So, no one cares about these people?" ”
"Alas, the people of this Snake Gang are very smart, and they only pick on us helpless people to bully."
"Those who have a better business and don't want to cause trouble have also paid booth fees."
"I don't want to get into these troubles, but I really don't have any business, and I have to work hard to support myself, so how can I pay the so-called booth fee." The old man's tone was full of helplessness.
"They probably just want the paving location." Qi Shou said.
"If I really hand over this stall, I might as well die." The old man smiled bitterly.
"I have no wife and no savings, and all my savings were used to buy this shabby house."
"With the income from the paving, I can still make ends meet."
"Without that pavement, alas......"
Qi Shou looked at the old man and sighed.
He is not hard-hearted, and he feels very pitiful for the old man's situation, but if Qi Shou wants to help, he can't do it.
There are too many people suffering in the world, and there are still ten people who have helped one, and Qi Shou can't even do it alone now, so how can he help others.
"If I had saved some more savings in my early years, I wouldn't have ended up like this." The old man smiled bitterly.
The search here was fruitless, and Qi Shou could only look elsewhere.
If someone really bought it, then trying to find it again is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
But if it is taken away by the people of the Snake Gang, Qi Shou only needs to ask those hooligans and give some benefits, and it is estimated that he will be able to find the whereabouts of the fragment.
"That's right."
"Did you know there's a blacksmith nearby?"
Qi Shou suddenly asked.
"Shaoxia should be talking about the witch blacksmith." The old man replied.
"That's right, it's the Witch Blacksmith." Qi Shou nodded.
"From here, go a little further east and you'll find it." The old man showed Qi Shou the way.
"The blacksmith is very good, and I often go to his place for tea."
"When he was young, he was also a man who traveled a lot."
Qi Shou nodded: "Thank you." ”
With that, Qi Shou was about to turn around and leave.
Just then, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.
Then, there was a sharp knock on the door.
"Old man Liang, come out quickly!"
