Chapter 56: How Can You Cleanse Your Reputation?

After the meal was served, Song Qian, who already had some experience in the rivers and lakes, consciously took out the silver needle and began to prick it up one by one in the meal.

In this world, ordinary poisons can be detected with silver needles, of course, such as sweat pills, aphrodisiacs, etc., silver needles cannot be detected.

Therefore, after Song Qian finished the test, Song Xuan picked up the chopsticks and ate first.

Pure Yang Wuji Tongzi Gong, all poisons do not invade, if there is no reaction to the pure Yang internal force in the entrance of the meal, you can eat it with confidence.

Regarding Song Qian's actions, the shopkeeper's heart was a little uncomfortable, "Don't worry, Xiao Lao'er has been opening a store here for more than ten years, and his reputation is still guaranteed, but it is not a black store." ”

"It's hard to say."

Song Qian looked up and down at the shopkeeper, and said lightly: "In the past, you may not have opened a black shop, but now that you are old, your body and bones are not very good, what if you want to be a big vote and retire from now on?" ”

As soon as these words came out, a few of the other tables in the store didn't hold back and laughed on the spot.

Some people even felt that what Song Qian said was reasonable, so they took out the silver needle from their arms and began to check it carefully.

The shopkeeper's angry face turned pale, "Two guests, you shouldn't be here to smash the little old man's field, right?" I do my duty to do business, how can you tarnish people's reputation?! ”

Song Xuan quietly took out a piece of silver and put it on the table, and said lightly: "Are these enough to make up for your reputation?" ”

The shopkeeper glanced at the silver on the table, and when he saw the weight, he estimated that it was ten taels.

Ten taels of silver is nothing in the eyes of the elite, but for ordinary people, it is enough for a family to live for more than half a year.

The dissatisfaction on the shopkeeper's face instantly converged, and turned into a warm smile, "Shaoxia is polite, why don't you scold me a few more words?" Otherwise, I would be a little uneasy to take this silver. ”

Song Xuan smiled: "That's it, if I ask you something, you just tell the truth." ”

"Guest officer, you can ask casually, I have opened a store here for more than ten years, and I have seen a lot of customers passing by, and I am well-informed, and there is nothing I don't know about this hundred miles of land."

Song Xuan pondered for a while, and said: "Recently, there is a batch of goods at home to be sent to the north, and I am going to find a dart bureau to escort it, I heard that the Fuwei dart bureau in the city is good, you are a local, tell me the truth, is the Fuwei dart bureau reliable?" ”

"Fuwei Dart Bureau?"

The old shopkeeper frowned and said, "Guest, if it was before, I would definitely recommend you to choose the Fuwei Dart Bureau." Mr. Lin is a righteous and bold person, and he is very honest, and he has a lot of face in the white and black roads, and it is absolutely reliable to find his dart.

But now....."

The old shopkeeper lowered his voice and said, "The Fuwei Dart Bureau has been in big trouble recently, and it is said that it has provoked the Qingcheng faction in Shudi, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for the Lin family to survive this catastrophe."

At this time, I really don't recommend that you come to the Fuwei Dart Bureau to bet. ”

Song Xuan smiled, "What the local government said, doesn't it matter?" ”

"How?"

The old shopkeeper said: "The young master of the Lin family killed the son of the head of the Qingcheng faction, and this kind of grievances and grievances between the rivers and lakes have always been intrusive.

As long as the Qingcheng faction doesn't do anything to other ordinary people, even if the Lin family is killed, the government will only come out to collect the corpse afterwards, and will not provoke the Qingcheng faction at all. ”

Song Xuan frowned and said, "The Lin family has been running the Fuwei Dart Bureau for so many years, so there are always some people in the martial arts, right?" Didn't ask for some help? ”

"Why didn't you ask for it?"

The old shopkeeper is also a chatterbox, and when it comes to this gossip of the rivers and lakes, he is more energetic than Song Xuan, so he doesn't need Song Xuan to ask more, so he tells everything he knows.

These days, Lin Zhennan has been begging people everywhere, and letters have been sent one after another, but no one has come to help.

Yu Canghai, the head of the Qingcheng faction, is a master of learning, who doesn't know in the rivers and lakes?

If you want to say that it is heartbreaking, it is so powerful, even an old man like me has heard of it. It is said that a person who is struck by the palm will die without scars, and his whole body will be cold and will not bleed, but his heart will be shattered by shock.

When others heard that it was the Qingcheng faction that they were provoking, they didn't want to touch their hands, for fear of causing trouble for themselves. ”

"Oh?"

Song Xuan's face moved, and he glanced at Song Qian, and the two of them almost instantly thought of the death of their predecessor Xu Chang'an.

Like this, you can't see the injury on the outside, but the heart is shattered inside, and there are many martial arts in the rivers and lakes that can do it.

At first, Song Xuan didn't associate this matter with Yu Canghai, after all, one was in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the other was in Shudi, thousands of miles apart.

But at this moment, listening to what the old shopkeeper said, Song Xuan vaguely felt that this matter might really have something to do with Yu Canghai!

"Alas, it's a pity that Mr. Lin is a good person, but this time it's too much trouble."

The shopkeeper sighed and said: "It is said that he has a wide range of connections, but the connection has always needed strength to support it." For ordinary trivial things, people in the rivers and lakes will also give him a face.

But this time, the Lin family killed the son of the head of Yu, this kind of revenge for killing children, other people in the martial arts didn't even dare to make peace.

If you want me to say, it is better to rely on others than on yourself after all, if Mr. Lin is ruthless and gathers all the dart masters from all over the world, even if the martial arts of Qian'er 800 dart masters are not as good as the disciples of the Qingcheng faction, but the number of people is large, the Qingcheng faction will also have scruples.

It's a pity, he is still too indecisive after all, yesterday I heard that he not only did not gather people, but also secretly dismissed the people of the dart game, making it clear that he did not dare to fight hard, and only wanted to run away.

This person has no fighting spirit in the face of the enemy, and it is estimated that the Lin family is not far from being destroyed. ”

Song Xuan looked at the shopkeeper in some surprise, and exclaimed: "You have seen it far-reaching enough, and it is more thorough than Lin Zhennan's sight." ”

"The young man has a good reputation."

The old shopkeeper said smugly: "I'm older, I have seen a lot of things, plus I have opened a store here for more than ten years, and I have seen a lot of various things from the south to the north, and many things can be understood at a glance." ”

As he spoke, he put the silver on the table into his sleeve robe without a trace, and said in a low voice: "The two of you asked so much about the Lin family, did you come from other places to help the Lin family?"

For the sake of the silver, listen to my advice, go back and forth from where you are full of food and drink, don't mix the muddy water of the Lin family.

As early as a few months ago, before the son of the head of the Qingcheng faction died, there were already disciples who came to Fuzhou County one after another, and they had eaten here with me at that time.

People have been eyeing the Lin family for a long time, and the Lin family can't escape this catastrophe whether the son of the head of the house dies or not.

I've seen a lot of young heroes like you who are young and enthusiastic and want to see injustice and draw a sword to help, and the mood of wanting to be famous is understandable, but there is really no need to provoke martial arts sects such as the Qingcheng faction. ”
