Chapter 35 Anecdotes from the rivers and lakes
In the county office, Qi Zixiao looked at everyone, and suddenly found that there was one person missing, and asked curiously, "What about the woman who used the spear?" ”
"That's Ye Hongling, a disciple of the Divine Spear Gate, who came out this time to travel through the rivers and lakes on the orders of the teacher, passing through our Qingxian ......"
At this time, Lin Shan, who was left, smiled and spoke, with a hint of banter in his eyes, "Zixiao, this is someone who has fallen in love with someone, it's not bad, the Sharpshooter Sect is also a first-class sect in our Qingzhou, their disciple qualifications are at least at the level of beautiful jade, and you are a person from the imperial court, young and promising, this is a match made in heaven......"
Everyone else looked at Qi Zixiao with a smile on their faces, and they all felt that the two of them were a good match.
One side is the disciple of the Jianghu forces, and the other side is the elite of the county government, everyone has a bright future, once united, the future is unlimited.
Qi Zixiao shook his head, "Lin Zhutou really likes to joke, I just asked casually, after all, people have also done us a great favor, if there is any accident because of this, I will not be happy in my heart." ”
"Haha, that Miss Ye is fine, she just used a powerful marksmanship, which made her suffer a little backlash, and she will be fine for a few days of cultivation, she is probably resting in the inn now."
Lin Shan explained with a smile, "Now that the evil corpse has been beheaded, an announcement can be made tomorrow, and our Qingxian County can finally settle down again." ”
Zhang Xianling nodded, agreeing with the other party's words, "You have worked hard this time, and it is almost dawn at this time, everyone will go back to rest first, and the official will hold a celebration banquet in the evening, and the venue will be in Qi's Restaurant." ”
When they heard this, everyone thanked one after another.
When I returned to Qi's house, it was not yet bright at this time, and there was a hint of darkness, but the house was lit up at this time, and candles were lit.
The uncles and aunts have all woken up, only Qi Xiaoling, the girl, is still asleep, and the saliva at the corners of her mouth is almost drowning the bed.
Seeing Qi Zixiao come back, the uncle and aunt hurriedly asked what happened, Qi Zixiao thought about it for a while, and chose to tell them the truth.
Hearing that it was a third-grade evil corpse killing, they were all taken aback, and the aunt held Qi Zhen's arm tightly, with a frightened expression on her face.
"However, uncle and aunt can rest assured that this evil corpse has been dealt with and will not appear again in the future."
Qi Zixiao opened his mouth and said, "Tonight, the county order will hold a celebration banquet in our restaurant, and invite the major masters who will contribute tonight." ”
Hearing this, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, and Uncle Qi Zhen looked happy, "In our restaurant, it seems that we can make a lot of money......
The county order invites guests, how can the banquet be shabby, and he is not worried that the other party will repay the debt, after all, his nephew is begging for a living under the other party, if he even relies on this money, he will lose face and go to Qingzhou Mansion.
……
The sky was dark, and the notices of the county government had been posted all over the streets and alleys, and some scholars stood next to the notices, explaining to the people on the side what was said.
Hearing that the evil corpse was in chaos, everyone was panicked, but when they heard that the evil corpse was eradicated by the county government's head hunters and the knights of the rivers and lakes, they all cheered.
In this notice, Qi Zixiao's contribution was emphasized again, and everyone understood one thing, if there was no Qi Zixiao, it is estimated that the evil corpse would have slaughtered several villages!
They may also be killed by the Zombies.
So, soon, in a restaurant and tea shop, a person shook his head and said, "Have you heard, Qi Zhutou and several Jianghu knights joined forces to fight the evil corpse, and successfully killed the evil corpse!" ”
"Nonsense, what kind of teaming up, it's obviously Qi Hunting the head of the demon corpse alone, fighting with it for 300 rounds, and slashing it under the knife!"
At this point, another person suddenly got up and retorted.
“……”
In the streets and alleys, some people were gossiping and discussing with each other, "Our Qingxian County was invaded by a four-grade evil corpse with a height of three feet, and Qi Zhutou was the reincarnation of the gods, and he cut it out with a knife and directly cut the evil corpse in half......"
The further it goes, the more exaggerated it becomes, the three-grade evil corpses are all blown to the fifth grade, obviously everyone joined forces, but it turned into Qi Zixiao and pointed like a knife, slashing it out with one knife, and directly killing the five-grade evil corpse.
When Ye Hongling walked out of the inn, he saw a group of children playing games on the street outside, one child was holding a wooden knife, and the other child was wearing a grimace mask.
"Bold evil corpse, dare to make trouble in Qingxian, look at the thunder knife method of this headcatcher!"
The little boy holding the wooden knife opened his mouth immaturely, brandished the wooden knife and fell towards the other party, hitting the other party, the latter immediately fell to the ground, and screamed in pain, "Oops, it's so powerful, I was killed......"
A smile appeared on the corner of Ye Hongling's mouth, knowing that they were imitating the role of Qi Zixiao and the evil corpse.
Suddenly, she saw a young man in brocade clothes and jade belt not far away stopping a little lady, his words were frivolous, and the other party screamed in fright, but he couldn't leave, Ye Hongling snorted coldly, strode forward, and with a "swish", the spear was like lightning, instantly lying in front of Brother Gongzi, and the tip of the gun was aimed at his neck.
"Believe it or not, I'll make you blood spill!"
Ye Hongling opened his mouth coldly.
The other party was stunned by Ye Hongling's performance, and he didn't know what to say, and the woman on the side hurriedly ran into the distance, not daring to continue to stay.
"Woman, woman, spare your life, I don't dare, I don't dare anymore......"
Brother Gongzi reacted, and said in a stammering tone, although the law of Daqi is strict, and the other party is estimated to be hunted down by the court if he kills him, but his life can no longer be saved.
Therefore, he resolutely confessed.
Ye Hongling snorted coldly, withdrew the spear, and then strode forward, no longer paying attention to the other party.
Just now, I also intimidated the other party, really let her kill, she didn't dare, in Daqi, only the imperial court can convict a person, you dare to kill people at will, that is to violate the laws of Daqi, chivalry and martial arts, this is a big taboo!
Ye Hongling came to the Qi family restaurant, this is a three-story restaurant, the decoration is also good, relying on this restaurant, Qi Zhen has been able to support the family over the years, and the aunt can live a superior life of stretching out her hand to eat and open her mouth.
And Qi Zixiao was on an errand in the yamen, and some ruffians and hooligans did not dare to come to the restaurant to find trouble.
With the increase in Qi Zixiao's status and prestige, the business of Qijia Restaurant is in full swing.
There was an endless stream of customers, and the little two in the store were so busy that his legs were almost thin.
At this time, in the largest private room on the third floor, a group of people gathered here at this time, Zheng Hu, Lin Shan and other head-catchers, as well as many second-grade Jianghu knights.
Qi Zixiao was also among them, and soon, Zhang Xianling brought people in, and everyone got up one after another to say hello to each other.
Zhang Xianling sat at the top with a smile, looked at the crowd, and said in surprise, "Miss Ye hasn't come yet?" ”
"I'm sorry, I'm a step late, I hope you don't be surprised!"
At this time, Ye Hongling strode in, even if he came to eat, he was holding his spear in his hand.
"Where, Miss Ye is a heroine among women, how can we meet the blame."
Zhang Xianling opened his mouth with a smile and motioned for the other party to sit down.
On the left hand side of Zhang Xianling is Qi Zixiao, and on the right hand side is the third-grade martial artist Mr. Zuo, who used the True Qi Transformation Form to fight with the evil corpse before, and the injury was not light.
At this time, everyone has already arrived, Qi Zhen, as the shopkeeper, immediately arranged for the kitchen to be served, all of which are the best materials, how expensive and how to come, anyway, the last thing to spend money is the county order.
At the beginning of the banquet, Zhang Xianling asked people to bring in a plate covered with red cloth, and looked at everyone with a smile, "Many of you present are not from the imperial court, so I can't ask you for credit, I can only thank you with money, this is three hundred taels of silver, Mr. Zuo sixty taels of silver, and the others forty taels each." ”
As he spoke, he pulled back the red cloth and revealed two hundred taels of silver.
Excluding the five head catchers, there are seven invited masters of the rivers and lakes, which can be separated.
For them, walking the rivers and lakes, the most important thing is silver, whether it is eating, sleeping, or shopping, this is not falling from the sky, and silver is needed as support.
Therefore, they did not dislike it at all, and expressed their gratitude to the county order, thirty taels of silver, which was enough to support the living expenses of ordinary people's families for three years.
Qi Zixiao and the others were all envious, thirty taels of silver.
However, as people from the government, they can't get this money, after all, they eat the official money, even if they make meritorious service, they will only be rewarded, and then they will be rewarded with some property, which is definitely not as good as the handwriting of the county order.
When the silver was divided, everyone pushed the cups again and changed them.
Most of the people present are martial artists, and they can be regarded as sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, and after thirty years of drinking, the topic is opened.
At this time, Qi Zixiao looked at Ye Hongling and asked with a smile, "Miss Ye, I heard that you are from the Divine Spear Gate, and you should know a lot of things about the rivers and lakes during your trip to the rivers and lakes this time, so it is better to tell us all about it, so that we can increase our knowledge." ”
Hearing this, the others all smiled and agreed, "That's right, the Divine Spear Sect is a first-class sect in Qingzhou, and you must know a lot." ”
Seeing that everyone was so enthusiastic, Ye Hongling thought for a while, and also smiled faintly, "Actually, I have just come out to practice for a long time, and I don't know much, but I have heard some senior brothers and sisters in the sect talk about some legendary stories in our Great Qi rivers and lakes before......
"Since everyone wants to hear it, I will also borrow flowers to offer Buddha, if there is anything wrong, you are welcome to correct it......"
"There are many sects in the rivers and lakes of Daqi, divided into five levels, not into the stream, third-rate, second-rate, first-class, top-level, a sect has at least one fourth-grade martial artist, it can be regarded as third-rate, and only a fifth-grade martial artist can be regarded as second-rate, and so on, if you want to become a top force, you must at least have a peerless powerhouse at the seventh-grade level......
The Seven Rank Martial Artists, generally known as the land immortals, have the terrifying power to turn over the rivers and seas, and even if they enter the palace to face the saints, they can be respected, and there is no need to kneel and worship......"
Ye Hongling slowly spoke, and everyone who said it was full of enthusiasm, as if they saw one top powerhouse after another across the sky like a great sun, and the light shone on the entire Shenzhou Continent.
"In Daqi, there are countless first-class forces, but the top forces may not increase for decades, the city lord of the White Emperor City is invincible, and the entire rivers and lakes hit by a pair of fists can't raise their heads, Da Lei Yin Temple is like preaching under the Bodhi tree, breaking into the seven products, cultivating the law as it comes, and the three crazy Taoists of the Zhenwu faction enter the Tao with Taiji, the harmony of yin and yang, and the cultivation of the Taiji law is ......"
Listening to the names of the many glorious heavens in Ye Hongling's mouth, each of them was a peerless figure standing at the peak of the Great Qi, and when he stomped his feet, the entire Great Qi would tremble.
According to Ye Hongling, these are all powerhouses above the six grades, and they can be said to be real land immortals!
"However, what I like to hear the most is the story of the old sword god of the East China Sea Sword Pavilion."
Ye Hongling said, a touch of regret suddenly rose on her face.
"The old sword god of the East China Sea Sword Pavilion? What's the story? ”
Everyone listened to the blood boiling, and when they heard what Ye Hongling said about the East China Sea Sword Pavilion, they immediately pricked up their ears, and they all felt that there must be some secret in this.
"The old sword god of the East China Sea Sword Pavilion, Yan Shiyi, was born with a clear sword heart, a peerless genius above the way of the sword, in just a few decades, he has cultivated the Taishang sword body and law, and it is difficult to find opponents throughout the Shenzhou Continent, and finally lives in seclusion, however, I don't know why, this sword god shot out from thousands of miles away, and cut out a sword, I heard that he fell directly from the eighth rank to the seventh grade......"
Ye Hongling opened her mouth with a look of adoration, looking at everyone's eyes, she smiled slightly, "That sword was cut out, and a nine-rank immortal fell directly!" ”
