Chapter 40: Dugu Brother and Sister Visit
After Ren Xiaoyao reappeared in the rivers and lakes, he sent someone to the Shenjian Gate, because Ren Xiaoyao still owed some shops to the Shenjian Gate, and Ren Xiaoyao could take this opportunity to keep in touch with the Shenjian Gate, so that he could go to the immortal cultivator when the time came.
A month before seeing the immortal cultivators, the Divine Sword Sect sent people to Xiaoyao City, but it was Dugu Feiyang and Dugu Feiyan two brothers and sisters.
"Haha, Ren Xiaoyao, I said that this girl will come to your Xiaoyao City, you have to cover all my expenses in Xiaoyao City this time, otherwise, you know the consequences. β
As soon as Dugu Feiyan saw Ren Xiaoyao, she began to blackmail, but before Ren Xiaoyao could reply, she went to hug Hua Xiaoshuang and talk privately.
Looking at his sister's unreasonable blackmail, Dugu Feiyang looked doting, and at the same time looked at Ren Xiaoyao with a bitter face, looking helpless.
"Big brother, don't come unharmed!"
At this time, Dugu Feiyang was much more mature than before, but his sharp energy was stronger than before, and his sword intent permeated out, so that the people around him did not dare to look directly.
"Second brother, you are good at swordsmanship, you have already comprehended the nine styles of the divine sword?" Ren Xiaoyao threw away a pot of Baihua wine brought out from the Hundred Flowers Valley, and asked with a smile, not caring at all about the sword qi emanating from Dugu Feiyang's body.
"Although I have comprehended the Nine Styles of the Excalibur, I can't feel the slightest sword intent in my eldest brother's body, but one thing I am sure of is that my eldest brother must have comprehended a deeper level of sword intent, and I must ask my eldest brother for advice when I have the opportunity. β
Dugu Feiyang took a big sip of the wine thrown by Ren Xiaoyao, looked at Ren Xiaoyao, his sword qi was horizontal, and he was eager to try.
"Good wine!"
Dugu Feiyang couldn't help but praise.
"Wherever there is good wine, I will drink it too!"
Hearing that there was good wine, Dugu Feiyan, who was fighting with Hua Xiaoshuang, ran over, snatched the wine from Dugu Feiyang's hand, and took a big sip.
"Good wine! bad guy, oh no, Ren Yao, oh no, Ren Da Boss, you must give me a lot of this delicious wine, otherwise, I will tell my eldest brother what you did to me in Zizhu Town!"
Dugu Feiyan, who was deeply fascinated by the sweetness and mellow aroma of Baihua wine, took another sip of wine, she wanted Ren Xiaoyao to give her some, but she didn't want to ask Ren Xiaoyao, so she simply threatened directly.
"Feiyan, don't mess around, what kind of wine does the girl's family drink, the eldest brother is above board, how can he do anything to you?
Although Dugu Feiyang didn't believe that Ren Xiaoyao would do anything excessive, he was also curious, so he showed it on his face.
"Yes, what I did to you in Zizhu Town, you can say it in front of everyone, if it is really me who did it, I will definitely be responsible for you. Ren Xiaoyao said with a smile.
Ren Xiaoyao's words are ambiguous, and the people who listen to them really think that Ren Xiaoyao has done something excessive to Dugu Feiyan. They all looked at Dugu Feiyan, wanting to hear what she would say, and Dugu Feiyan suddenly turned red. She just wanted to scare Ren Xiaoyao, this trick was quite effective when she was in Zizhu Town, but she didn't expect Ren Xiaoyao to be thick-skinned at this time, and instead directly said that she was responsible. Dugu Feiyan's original nonsense is now being said by Ren Xiaoyao, as if it is true, no matter how naughty Dugu Feiyan is, she is also a girl's family, and she is still shy.
"This little girl, if you don't fix her well, she will definitely get an inch!" Ren Xiaoyao smiled and thought in his heart.
"That's it...... It is...... It's about you sending someone to follow me when you were in Zizhu Town!"
"That's because Brother Ling asked me to take care of you, so I sent someone to protect you, but who knew that the person I sent was beaten by your eldest lady, hey, I really don't know the hearts of good people!"
Ren Xiaoyao shook his head in pretending to be sorry.
"Anyway, it's not right for you to send someone to follow me without my consent anyway!"
Seeing that he couldn't say anything, Dugu Feiyan simply played a scoundrel, causing everyone to laugh, Dugu Feiyang was not embarrassed on the side, and hurriedly said:
"Okay, Feiyan, don't mess around, let the little girl take you to the city for a walk, and my eldest brother and I will have a good get-together." Dugu Feiyang said with a straight face.
"It's only lively to go shopping together, Ren Da Boss, you are a guest from afar, you want to take me to visit Xiaoyao City!" Dugu Feiyan heard that Dugu Feiyang was going to get rid of her, so she entangled Ren Xiaoyao.
"Let Xiaoshuang accompany you, you can ask Xiaoshuang to buy you anything you see in Xiaoyao City, and you can ask for any empty store you fancy pΓΉ, anyway, I owe you Shenjian Gate." Ren Xiaoyao saw Dugu Feiyang's stern expression, as if there was something, and Ren Xiaoyao was unwilling to accompany Dugu Feiyan, a crazy girl, so he excused himself.
"Hmph, Miss Ben is here to your Escape City, do you want to accompany me, see if I don't sweep your Away City, Xiaoshuang, let's go." With that, Dugu Feiyan took Hua Xiaoshuang's arm and went to the downtown area.
"You go and say hello below, all the things Dugu Feiyan bought will be increased by 10 times, as for the shop pΓΉ she picked, it will be used as a shop pΓΉ for the Divine Sword Gate, and immediately send someone to decorate it. Ren Xiaoyao used the spiritual power in his body to urge the internal force, pressed it into a trace, and transmitted the sound to Cai Ye's ears.
Cai Ye originally came with Ren Xiaoyao to greet the dignitaries of the Divine Sword Gate, but after listening to Ren Xiaoyao's words, he quietly retreated. This method of compressing internal force with spiritual power is also a method that Ren Xiaoyao has only recently mastered, which not only greatly increases its power, but also has unique effects. Like this sound transmission method, it is farther than pure internal force transmission on the rivers and lakes, and no matter how deep the internal force is, it cannot be detected by people.
......
Twenty miles outside the city, in a barren mountain with beautiful scenery, let Xiaoyao and Dugu Feiyang sit opposite each other, holding a big wine jar and drinking bitterly.
"Second brother is good at drinking, I've never seen you drink so much before. If you use your internal strength to dissolve my Baihua wine, you will waste this good wine. Ren Xiaoyao took a big sip and quipped. Ren Xiaoyao felt that Dugu Feiyang had something on his mind.
Ignoring Ren Xiaoyao's words, Dugu Feiyang kept leaning his neck and gulping until the wine jar bottomed out, and Lone Feiyang threw the wine jar away, pulled out the sword at his waist, as if he had made a big decision, and pointed directly at Ren Xiaoyao.
"There are thousands of swordsmanship in the world, but seek yourself. Under the guidance of my eldest brother, after more than half a year of hard thinking and meditation, I finally realized that I belonged to my divine sword nine styles, I originally thought that I could find my eldest brother to have a good discussion, but I heard about the eldest brother's affairs in Zizhu Town, so I went to the scene to take a look, from the residual traces of the scene, I felt that the eldest brother comprehended a deeper level of sword intent, as if there was a sword intent of the ten styles of divine sword. I stayed in Zizhu Town for a month to study the traces left by my eldest brother, although I gained something, but my eldest brother's swordsmanship made me very confused, I never understood it, and at the same time, I also saw the pain of my eldest brother at that time and the violent killing intent in my heart from the traces of the scene. These are not mentioned for the time being, my eldest brother once taught me, the pursuit of self-peace of mind, I have always done this, I believe that heaven and earth have righteousness, and so is my sword intent. I want to ask the eldest brother, why did you kill so many innocent people in Zizhu Town, many of them are ordinary people in Zizhu Town who have no kung fu at all, and also, in the past few months, the killing caused by the eldest brother on the rivers and lakes, I want to ask the eldest brother, are these people all enmity with the eldest brother?"
When he said these words, Dugu Feiyang kept pointing at Ren Xiaoyao, waiting for Ren Xiaoyao's answer, as if Ren Xiaoyao couldn't give him a satisfactory answer, it was a situation that never stopped.
"Is it that if my answer is not satisfactory to the second brother, the second brother will have to work with me?"
Ren Xiaoyao was still drinking wine with the wine jar, looking at Dugu Feiyang, and said with a smile. Ren Xiaoyao has long felt that he and this brother of his will break up sooner or later, because Dugu Feiyang's heart is too persistent in the pursuit of good and evil, although in the process of exploring the rivers and lakes with Ren Xiaoyao, he was influenced by Ren Xiaoyao and handled things a lot more smoothly, but the principles in his heart have not changed at all. Ren Xiaoyao does not have strict standards of good and evil, in the case of peace of mind, how to do what is beneficial to himself, and Ren Xiaoyao is a restless person, in recent years, the rivers and lakes have been constantly moving, which determines that he and Dugu Feiyang will have conflicts sooner or later.
"I don't know, if it were someone else, even if I didn't lose, I would fight to the death. What the eldest brother has done in Zizhu Town and recently is like a demon, and this kind of demon is something I can't tolerate. It's just that with my understanding of the eldest brother, I believe that the eldest brother must have a hard time, so I hope that the eldest brother will give me an explanation, and the eldest brother's answer determines whether I and the eldest brother can be brothers in the future, and also determines whether we want to fight to the death now!" Dugu Feiyang's expression was unprecedentedly firm.
"People in the rivers and lakes, involuntarily, the sword is pointed, killing is inevitable, under killing, innocent is inevitable, I only want peace of mind. I am different from you, second brother, there are too many obstacles on my way forward, so my Jianghu Road is a road of killing, if I lose your brother because of this, I can only express my deep regret. The Tao is different, not conspiring with each other!" Ren Xiaoyao also drank the wine in the wine jar in one gulp, and said in a positive way.
Dugu Feiyang struggled for a long time, and finally let out a long sigh and put down the sword in his hand.
"If you don't know your eldest brother, you don't have to make such a difficult choice today. But if I didn't know my eldest brother, I wouldn't have had such an unforgettable experience in the rivers and lakes, nor would I have comprehended the Nine Styles of the Excalibur so quickly, let alone have such a close friend as my eldest brother. β
"Don't fight?" Ren Xiaoyao asked with a smile.
"I can't fight it! Dugu Feiyang spread his hands and said with a wry smile.
"Then do you want to have a discussion?" Ren Xiaoyao then asked.
"No, I'm not in the mood, next time. There are many ways of doing things that I can't agree with, but big brother is still big brother, even if I break with big brother one day, it's just a different path, and I still regard you as my big brother in my heart. β
"Me too, he swords at the second brother, you and me, and ask the second brother not to show mercy to my subordinates, because I will not show mercy to my subordinates. Before that day came, the second brother could come to my free city to drink at any time, and he could come to me at any time to learn swordsmanship. β
"There really is a day when the eldest brother should not show mercy, hahahaha. β
"Hahahaha. β
......
"Xiaoshuang, what should I do? Can these goods be returned, why are the things in this Xiaoyao City so expensive? If my eldest brother knows that I spent more than 30 million taels of silver on his eldest brother, he will have to kill me alive. Dugu Feiyan pulled Hua Xiaoshuang, looked at the car behind her, and said worriedly.
As soon as Dugu Feiyan entered Xiaoyao City, just like Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, she was full of curiosity about everything she saw, and because she began to be angry with Ren Xiaoyao, she bought whatever she liked. The things in Xiaoyao City were originally high-quality products, and the stores that Dugu Feiyan visited were those top-notch and luxurious stores, and the things were more expensive, and they were sold at 10 times the price, so in less than an hour, Dugu Feiyan spent 30 million taels of silver very carelessly. Among the stores that Dugu Feiyan visited, half of them were Ren Xiaoyao's own stores, and half were other people's stores, and the people in these stores gave Ren Xiaoyao face very much, so these things that were bought for Dugu Feiyan at 10 times the price were secretly bought for Ren Xiaoyao at cost price. So although Dugu Feiyan spent more than 30 million taels of silver on Ren Xiaoyao, in fact, the money spent by Ren Xiaoyao was not even 2 million taels.
"You can't return things if you buy them, these things are yours. Hua Xiaoshuang said with a smile. She also felt sorry for the money, but Ren Xiaoyao didn't speak, and she couldn't say anything.
"Xiaoshuang, what do you say, I can't let my eldest brother know about this matter. Why don't we throw away the things we bought?" Dugu Feiyan asked Hua Xiaoshuang.
Hua Xiaoshuang didn't expect Dugu Feiyan to think of this method, and she was stunned for a while, not knowing how to answer.
Seeing Hua Xiaoshuang's expression, Dugu Feiyan knew in her heart.
"Forget it, this method will definitely not work, you will definitely sue sΓΉ that villain. β
"Childe is in the city of freedom, as long as he wants to know something, there is nothing to hide from him, whether I say it or not, it's the same. If Feiyan is really willing to buy these things, I have a solution. Hua Xiaoshuang said with a smile.
"What's the solution? Xiaoshuang, say it quickly. Dugu Feiyan asked anxiously as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.
"Feiyan can use these things to rent a store or buy a storefront of her own in Xiaoyao City, so that the money will be returned to Childe, and you will get a storefront of your own, so that Big Brother will not blame you. β
"It's so interesting, that's it. I'm going to find that villain right now. When Dugu Feiyan heard that he could have his own storefront, his eyes lit up, and he even secretly thought of the name, so he called it "Feiyan Building".
"Childe never cares about the storefront in Xiaoyao City, it is all in charge of Manager Cai, I will ask people to find Manager Cai now, you don't need to look for Gongzi, now Gongzi and your eldest brother are definitely not in Xiaoyao City, maybe they will learn somewhere?"
"That's right, my eldest brother is a sword idiot, this time he just comprehended the Nine Styles of the Excalibur, and before he fully comprehended it, he must want to find someone to fight happily. Don't care about them for now, Xiaoshuang go and find that Mr. Cai. β
Hua Xiaoshuang listened to Dugu Feiyan's words, his eyes lit up, and then he returned to normal. Hua Xiaoshuang casually walked into a storefront and said to the storekeeper, and soon, Manager Cai appeared in front of Hua Xiaoshuang and Dugu Feiyan with his four bodyguards.
"That's really fast! Mr. Cai,... It's better for Xiaoshuang to talk to him. Dugu Feiyan didn't know how to talk to Manager Cai, so she let Xiaoshuang come forward.
Hua Xiaoshuang told Mr. Cai the details, in fact, Mr. Cai understood everything thoroughly before he came, and his heart was like a mirror, he listened to Hua Xiaoshuang in a similar way, and pretended to think about it very seriously before saying:
"Dugu girl, my shops in Xiaoyao City are never sold, and even those shops in your Divine Sword Gate are given away, not sold. You also know that Xiaoyao City is now an inch of land, and all the things sold in the shops in Xiaoyao City are high-quality products, and there is a lot of room for appreciation in the future. β
"Just by virtue of the relationship between my eldest brother and the head of your family, you can just say it, can I buy the things in the car behind me to buy your store?" Dugu Feiyan saw that Manager Cai had the face of a profiteer, and she hated it in her heart, interrupted Manager Cai's words, and went straight to the point.
Manager Cai didn't care about Dugu Feiyan's expression, and said enthusiastically.
"Since Brother Ling and the head of the family are brothers, and the price of Dugu Girl is also very high, I will make the decision and sell it, Dugu Girl can pick an empty shop in Xiaoyao City. It's just that there is a rule in my free city, any store that is rented out or sold privately must be opened within a month, and it must be a high-quality product, otherwise it will be taken back. This is a death order from the head of the house, and I dare not disobey this, I don't know what the business plan of the Dugu girl is, what is she going to sell, and when will it open?"
"I haven't thought about this yet, and I don't have any money. Dugu Feiyan was stunned, at first she just wanted to return the things she bought back to Ren Xiaoyao in a different way, and then she wanted to open a store because of curiosity, but she had no plan at all about how to run it, the most important thing was that she had no money.
"That, Mr. Cai, I have a carload of things behind me to buy you a storefront, how much should I have?" Dugu Feiyan asked.
"Of course, there are more things behind Dugu Girl than a store in Xiaoyao City, but our storefront is not for sale, and now it is especially sold to Dugu Girl, so it will definitely be more expensive. In addition, all the stores in Xiaoyao City have to pay a three-year management fee in advance before opening, so that after calculation, there is about one-third of the things left behind Dugu Feiyan. It's just that this third is not enough to meet the conditions for opening a store, so Dugu girl, you have to find a way to buy some goods. Manager Cai replied very seriously. What Mr. Cai said was all about the rules that there really existed in the city, but it was just a car of things behind Dugu Feiyan, and Mr. Cai calculated it at cost price.
"What should I do then? Is there any compromise way for Mr. Cai?" Dugu Feiyan didn't know the true value of the things in the car, and he didn't want to be so dashed that the idea of finally wanting to open a store was shattered, so he asked politely.
"There is a way to do it, I have two times the things in this car, and Dugu Girl shares with the remaining one-third of the goods, and the operation is all decided by Dugu Girl, and I have only one condition in Xiaoyaocheng, half of the profits. After Mr. Cai finished talking about his conditions, he was not in a hurry, but looked at Dugu Feiyan very leisurely, waiting for her answer.
Dugu Feiyan almost didn't think much about it, so she agreed in one breath, because everything here is not hers, and she doesn't lose anything at all, but can run a shop.
So, after hurriedly finishing the things assigned by the sect, Dugu Feiyan went to his shop with all his heart, after a few days of running around and under the care of Mr. Cai, "Feiyan Pavilion" was grandly opened, on the day of opening, Ren Xiaoyao was hard-pulled to cheer, which made "Feiyan Pavilion" the only one in Xiaoyao City where the city lord personally visited its opening ceremony, and Feiyan Pavilion's business was extremely hot for a while.
These days, Dugu Feiyang has been locked in his room to comprehend the swordsmanship, except for the opening of the "Feiyan Pavilion" to go out to cheer for a while, basically does not come out, and the things explained by the sect are also handed over to the accompanying disciples of the sect to do. Ren Xiaoyao knew that Dugu Feiyang still had a grudge against Ren Xiaoyao, which was unwilling to face Ren Xiaoyao. Although Dugu Feiyang still regards Ren Xiaoyao as his eldest brother, he can no longer drink with Ren Xiaoyao, who is now known as the peerless demon on the rivers and lakes.
"Hey, it's a pity for such a good brother!" Ren Xiaoyao stared at Dugu Feiyang's door, threw the prepared wine jug away, sighed, and walked away gently.
