Volume 1: Obscure Chapter 5: A Man Comes from a Distant Mountain
The city leader Eun vaguely remembers that it was a cold winter day, and in the snowy Yuancheng, everything was depressed.
Twelve-year-old Zhang Yu'er was playing in the city, the city advocate was sitting on the head of the city drinking tea, a middle-aged man in white stepped in the air from the wind and snow, the flying snow in the sky, pieces did not touch his body, fell to his side three feet and then automatically slided.
Zhang En, who was drinking tea, shrank his pupils, as if he was facing a great enemy, holding the teacup tightly in his hand.
But after a while, the usually high-ranking and powerful city lord was relieved and stood up to greet him.
The heavens and the earth are vast, all living beings are fighting for their lives, the fish jumps over the dragon gate, the phoenix bathes in the fire, the demons that have lurked for thousands of years, the fierce beasts that love to kill, and the people who fight against the sky are all for the sake of the glimmer of life in the underworld.
Tianzi covers a generation of people who seek immortals, want to prove immortality, and the creatures with mediocre qualifications are powerful and powerful, and live a longer life.
All living beings in the world have their own fate and their own path.
People can endure in this vast number of sentient beings, and naturally they also have their own path to eternal life.
The sages created the Nine Great Realms to extradite sentient beings, but the road to the Nine Realms is ten thousand levels, and one level is more difficult than the other, and there are very few people who have reached the top.
Naling, transformation, non-dependence, awakening......
Looking at this strong man who came in the wind and snow, Zhang En was still like a great enemy at the beginning, for fear that a strong man of this level would kill here.
But then he laughed at himself and walked in the air, he had to be a great master who did not follow the realm.
Although he is a person with a golden iron body at the peak of the Transformation Realm, although he has reached the ceiling in this abyss city, if he wants to resist this great grandmaster, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, I am afraid that it will be shattered at the touch of a button!
The difference between a realm and a world of difference.
But what was unexpected was that this great master did not have any malicious intent, but instead fell down from the city and came to his twelve-year-old daughter, and sighed lightly:
"Such qualifications, in this poor countryside, are buried...... Would you like to worship me as a teacher?"
The scenes of the past flashed in front of me, and now that I see my daughter again, she is no longer the little girl who chirped in the snowstorm in the city.
More like ...... It's more like an unsheathed sword!
The father and daughter have been separated for many years, and Zhang En, who has not smiled for a long time, has a constant smile on his face today, and he keeps sandwiching dishes for his daughter at the banquet.
Compared to the festive atmosphere in the City Lord's Mansion, there was a dead silence in the Li Family's Mansion, one of the several major families in Yuancheng.
In the study of Li Haoting, the head of the Li family, a woman kept accusing Li Haoting of reading with a yellowed book.
"Xiaolong's hands have been cut off, how can you still have the heart to read here......"
"I know all day long what is the use of reading books and reading...... Woo woo, my dragon, why did you have such a conscienceless father!"
After the woman finished accusing, she snatched the book in Li Haoting's hand and tore it up.
"What are you doing!"
The head of the family and Li Haoting, who was also the head of the family, was upset, and he was angry when he saw that the ancient books he had spent a lot of effort finding were destroyed by his arrogant and unreasonable wife.
"What am I doing! Your son has been hurt like this, and you still have a silver bottle mouth to read a book here! You still ask me what I am doing......" the woman chattered.
"Enough, get me out!" Li Haoting's cheeks bulged, obviously really angry.
"I ......" The woman saw the majesty on the face of this person who got along day and night, and tears flowed aggrieved for a while.
"Get out!"
Li Haoting saw the woman with tears in her eyes stunned and didn't move, and slapped it on the table in front of her.
The woman left crying, and Li Haoting watched the woman go out of the room, and then sat down on the chair.
Yuancheng was in an eventful time at this time, and if he was not careful, the entire Li family would be dragged into the abyss, and Li Haoting had to be cautious step by step.
But his own flesh and blood suffered such a catastrophe, how could Li Haoting really care, and sent out several teams of men and horses overnight yesterday, vowing to arrest the person who cut off his son's arm back and vent his evil anger. In this abyss city, no one has dared to treat the people of the Li family like this. Wherever you go, once you report your home, you can run rampant.
Those big families who are stronger than their own family power don't bother to do it, and those big families will not set their sights on a small place like Yuancheng; the street people and market traders who are weaker than themselves can only swallow their anger when they are angry; and the City Lord's Mansion, the Shi family, and the Ye family, which are not much different from their own forces, will not easily tear their faces and lose both.
If it were according to Li Haoting's character in the past, I am afraid that this small land would have already been stormy at this time, but now it is different, the old emperor of the Jingguo country has retired, the new emperor has ascended the throne, and the general trend of the world is about to change.
Although the Li family is in a small border town in the country of Baijing, the whole world is not the king's land, and it is even more difficult to avoid being affected, and this time it is not as high as before, the new emperor's ambition is too high.
In an inn, Wang Feng looked at himself in the mirror with a bronze mirror, very satisfied, he was originally poor, but he touched Li Changlong's money bag when he was leaving.
When I opened the previous generation, I saw that there were hundreds of taels of silver in the money bag, which was tantamount to a huge amount of money, which was enough to solve my urgent needs.
After escaping the scene, Wang Feng entered the area of the City Lord's Mansion, found an inn and stayed there, and asked Xiao Er to order a few sets of clothes for himself, and was not allowed to tell anyone about his stay, of course, this was at the cost of five taels of silver.
These five taels of silver are a huge amount of money for the shopkeeper and Wang Feng, and the shopkeeper's salary for one month is only two taels of silver. Although Wang Feng's flesh hurt, he was relieved to think that this was captured by himself anyway. One takes the risk, the other pays the money he picks up.
The room is by the window, so it is easy to escape if someone comes to chase you.
Sure enough, while lying in bed that night, people and horses passed by on the street from time to time, and from the crack in the door it looked like they were searching for something.
Wang Feng was very emotional, fortunately he was not provoking someone from the City Lord's Mansion, otherwise he would have been in the prison of Yuancheng at this time. Although the Li family is extremely powerful, it has not yet reached the point where it has reached the point of having hands and eyes to the sky, at least it does not have the authority to come to check the inn, at most it is to send someone to investigate.
It was dark, and Wang Feng, who was well-dressed and full of fragrance, walked out of the room, and the shopkeeper was guarding the store alone. There are not many guests in this world, and it is still early, and many guests have not gotten up yet.
Seeing Wang Feng coming down from upstairs, the shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted, and then said: "Son, morning!"
Of course, this son-in-law is already a bit funny. Today's Wang Feng is no longer yesterday's little beggar, he is neatly dressed, his long hair is tied up, his face is quickly tidy, and there is a faint fragrance on his body. Looking at the shopkeeper's novel eyes, Wang Feng said with a smile, "What kind of son is not a son, just reluctantly freshen up and change clothes." ”
What kind of person is the shopkeeper, he is receiving all kinds of people every day, and naturally he will not be Geng until he says: "Yes, that's it, it's not very interesting", but said with great interest: "Where is it, according to the temperament of the son, even if the four heroes of the Yuancheng are standing here at this time, the son will not be too far behind it." ”
"Hahaha, what you say is sincere!" Wang Feng couldn't help but be obscene, but he couldn't help but be curious, poked his head at Xiao Er and asked: "Who are these four masters, such a big reputation, I have heard it several times since I entered the city yesterday, is it so powerful?"
"Shhhh Seeing Wang Feng like this, the shopkeeper hurriedly made a silent gesture, looked at no one around, then lowered his voice, and said slowly: "These four heroes are Li Changkong, the second son of the Li family, Shi Xiu, the youngest son of the Shi family, Ye Wushuang of the Ye family, and the last one is the daughter of the city lord's mansion - Zhang Yu'er! The most legendary is Zhang Yu'er, who was accepted as an apprentice by Zhao Tianming, the great master of Nanyang Mountain, at the age of twelve. ”
"This Zhang Yu'er is so powerful?" Wang Feng was very surprised.
"That's not it, if you worship a great grandmaster as a teacher, your identity will naturally rise. That's it, these things are too far away from us, don't mention it, I have to go to work. The shopkeeper was envious in his heart, but he would only be envious when he mentioned it, and he would not take it to heart and feel sorry for himself.
Fireflies are not enough to compete with the bright moon, but fireflies also have the happiness of fireflies, and they don't necessarily have to be more dazzling than anyone, ordinary and innocent, ordinary and innocent.
The shopkeeper held a wooden basin, as if to send something to the guests in the guest room, walked to the corner of the second floor, as if he remembered something, turned to Wang Feng and shouted: "Childe, there will be a great master in the city today to recruit apprentices, such a big event, not to mention that the four masters will arrive, even several major families in the city will also be present, if the son has nothing to do, he can also go to see." ”
After Xiao Er finished speaking, he went to deliver the clothes, and Wang Feng's sentence: "Thank you little brother for reminding me" said to the empty wooden staircase.
"Interesting, Great Grandmaster?" Out of the inn, thinking about Xiao Er's words in his mind, Wang Feng really wanted to see what the great grandmaster looked like in everyone's mouth, but the apprentice was exempt, and the master let him go to Tianming before going down the mountain, but Wang Feng asked for a long time along the way, and the number one forces in this Niu County have been inquired all over, but he has never heard of any force called Tianming, maybe he can find out the news here.
The three major families of Yuancheng have their influence all over this small city, and the shop industry is almost monopolized by the three families, even if it is the city lord's mansion, they have to be cautious. Today, the four major forces gathered together, but they all sat on the lower seat, above the main seat, a middle-aged man sat above and drank tea leisurely, and dozens of young people gathered in the square below, all of whom were in their early seventeens, eighties, nineties and twenties, some were gorgeously dressed and magnificent, and at first glance they were all sons, but there were only a few such ones, and most of them still looked like ordinary and ordinary young people.
Cheng Cheng took a sip of tea, raised his head and smiled at Li Haoting, the head of the Li family opposite, his eyes were full of concern, "Master Li, I heard that Ling Gongzi was injured yesterday, I don't know what the situation is now?"
Li Haoting's face remained unchanged, and he hurriedly got up and saluted the city councilor, and then said with a smile, "There is a concern of the city lord, and the unfilial son just lost an arm, and it is not a big problem." ”
"It's a pity, has the murderer been found?" Zhang En's face was worried, as if it was his son who was injured.
"There's no news yet, but it's expected to be caught soon. Li Haoting wondered in his heart, what kind of calculation did this Zhang En have in his heart, if you are a big city lord, you will not be idle enough to ask such a trivial matter.
"That's good, by the way, I heard that yesterday the virtuous nephew drove away all the beggars in the city?"
"The city lord forgives the sin, the unfilial son heard that Miss Yu'er came back yesterday, so he wanted to offer his courtesy, he never thought that he would be so ignorant of the heavens and the earth, and he didn't know what kind ......of medicine was sold in this gourd" At this time, Li Haoting finally understood what kind of medicine was sold in this gourd, and hurriedly explained.
"Okay, the Li family master doesn't need to be excited, I'm just worried about the virtuous nephew, this kind of dirty work is just handed over to the sergeant in the city, why do you still do it yourself, you lose your identity, what do you think, Li family master?"
"What the lord of the city said is that when I go back later, I will teach the son who is not a master. Li Haoting got up and bowed to Zhang En.
This can make the people around Li Haoting shocked, when did the head of the family worship this city lord.
But what they didn't know was that just when the two of them were talking, the great grandmaster on the main seat set his eyes on the three masters, who were drenched in cold sweat at this time, and they all glanced at each other, and then pretended that nothing had happened.
At this time, the three of them still didn't understand, where was this disciple collection conference, this was a Hongmen banquet for the three families! The grandmaster on the stage, he was from the county town!
