Chapter 8: Circles Down

In the small courtyard to which Liu Zhuangzhuang belongs, more than ten people have already come, all of them are formal disciples, laughing, joking, and harmonious.

As soon as Ren Qiu stepped in, someone shouted: "Senior Brother Ren, come on, come on, sit here." ”

It was Huang Sheng who spoke, with a warm attitude, without the slightest indifference from before, pulling the chair next to him away and beckoning Ren Qiu to sit down.

Ren Qiu responded, with a smile on his face, as if the previous unhappiness did not exist, and under Huang Sheng's introduction, he got acquainted with everyone.

After a while, Liu Zhuangzhuang walked in, followed by five or six people, carrying three large wooden barrels: "It's all here." ”

The people stood up and saluted.

Liu Zhuangzhuang waved his hand: "It's still the old rule, get some strange beast meat...... When everyone leaves, take it with them. ”

"There is no such benefit in the hospital, this is what the third senior brother took out for us from his monthly example, and it is available every month, you will know later. ”

Huang Sheng said in a low voice: "Remember, the third senior brother asked us to go east, we have to go east, just be obedient, and you will benefit from it." ”

Ren Qiu nodded slightly, knowing in his heart that this was a benefit that would only be available to him as a person who was strong and strong, and ordinary disciples did not have it.

Liu Zhuangzhuang sat down, the huge wooden chair made a 'squeak' overwhelmed sound, put his big hand on his knees, and glanced at everyone: "Let everyone come over this time, but there is one thing to say, recently the courtyard is preparing to buy a large amount of foreign beast meat, and the exchange ratio is more than three percent ...... in the past."

"Not only that, but the first three have additional rewards, the first place gets a boxing technique, the second and third places get the master's personal guidance, and the treatment in the hospital is improved. ”

"Half a year, half a year later, the ranking, by me and the master to decide the winner. ”

Everyone was in an uproar and full of surprise.

Liu Zhuangzhuang grinned: "Everyone, the opportunity is right in front of you, don't let me down." ”

"Senior Brother Liu, don't worry, we will kill more strange beasts and overpower the second senior brother's gang. ”

"The top three, definitely ours. ”

Huang Sheng shouted the loudest, and the rest laughed, patting their chests and assuring, rubbing their fists and palms, extremely excited.

Next, everyone discussed how to use the resources at hand to get the maximum benefit.

Ren Qiu didn't speak, listened quietly, collected as much information as possible, and soon understood the origin of the strange beast.

Alien beasts are just a name, including all beasts, but they are contaminated with the breath of monsters, so that the mutated beasts, most of their flesh and blood are poisonous, but some of the essence, but very suitable for eating, replenishing qi and blood, strengthening the body and bones.

What he pays the most attention to is that the alien beast meat can be exchanged for medicinal soup with the courtyard, and five catties of alien beast meat can be exchanged for a bowl.

No wonder, the old disciples didn't care, the decoction distributed daily in the courtyard turned out to be another channel, and these were not known to informal disciples.

My heart is slightly hot.

The difference between the alien beast meat and the medicinal soup is too big, the taste of the alien beast meat is rushing, and the qi and blood are complicated, it is not easy to digest, and the effect is not as great as the medicinal soup.

A bowl of medicinal soup is worth ten catties of alien beast meat.

You can see the difference.

"Senior Brother Ren, this opportunity is rare, when the time comes, you will follow us and go together to see and learn, do not seek to compete for rankings, as long as you hunt a few strange beasts, it will also make a lot of money. ”

Huang Sheng patted Ren Qiu's shoulder.

After Ren Qiu pondered for a moment, he shook his head with a wry smile: "I'm going to disappoint Senior Brother Huang, I'm just starting to enter the qi and blood body, and I don't have a lot of experience, I'm just afraid that it will drag you down, so I won't participate this time." ”

"It would be a pity not to participate. ”

Huang Sheng was surprised, immediately relieved, and nodded: "It's okay, if you want to go one day, just tell me in advance." ”

"Then thank you, Senior Brother Huang. ”

......

The sky was slightly dark, Ren Qiu was carrying more than ten catties of alien beast meat, and as soon as he walked out of the martial arts courtyard, someone stepped forward and said, "Senior Brother Ren, go slowly." ”

Ren Qiu turned around and looked at the person who came, but it was Bai Xuan, who was assessed on the same day as him, and he was in Liu Zhuangzhuang's small courtyard, but he didn't communicate.

Greeting each other and being polite.

"Senior Brother Ren, we are both newcomers, but we have to support each other, let's go, I'll invite you to drink. ”

"This ......"

Ren Qiu glanced at him and smiled slightly: "Then let Senior Brother Bai break the bank." ”

As the best restaurant in the county, Chunmanlou has always been a place for disciples of the martial arts academy, and the two asked for a private room and ordered good wine and food.

Bai Xuan poured Ren Qiu a glass of wine and said, "Senior Brother Ren, I've actually heard about you. ”

"Oh, I don't know what Senior Brother Bai is referring to?"

"What else can it be, of course it's the matter of the fifth senior brother, you have to be careful with him, he has always been insidious and cunning, and he didn't dare to be blatant in the courtyard, but if he was outside, he might not be able to say. ”

Ren Qiu shook his head: "Senior Brother Bai misunderstood, I and the Fifth Senior Brother, there is no contradiction, there are just some misunderstandings." ”

Bai Xuan smiled disappreδΈ€ι—¨ly, picked up the wine glass, and took a sip: "The wine of Chunmanlou, the girl of Huaxiang Pavilion, and the dishes of Natural Residence are called the three major characteristics of Beishan County, and they really live up to their reputation." ”

"With Senior Brother Bai's family, eating meat and drinking wine every day is not difficult for you, right?"

"You don't want me?"

Bai Xuan smiled bitterly: "When I was ten years old, I secretly went to the Flower Fragrance Pavilion once, and before the woman had time to look at her body, the old man in my family knew about it, and sent someone to hang me on the pillar of the Flower Fragrance Pavilion, and I was hungry for three days. ”

Ruthless...... Ren Qiu was convinced, a ten-year-old dared to play with a woman, and a son was put to death.

Bai Xuan put down his wine glass: "By the way, I heard Senior Brother Huang say, you don't participate in this hunt for strange beasts?"

Immediately, without waiting for Ren Qiu to answer, he picked up the wine glass and took a sip, sticking out his tongue: "This wine is really spicy......

After a pause, he said as if unintentionally: "It's okay not to participate, so as not to lose your life for no reason." ”

Ren Qiu's expression froze: "Senior Brother Bai, how can you say this?"

Bai Xuan smiled: "Didn't Fang just ask you about you and the Fifth Senior Brother, didn't you say that you and the Fifth Senior Brother just misunderstood, and there was no contradiction?"

Ren Qiu frowned, looked at him and said, "You mean to say that the fifth senior brother wants to kill me?"

Bai Xuan glanced at him and snorted, "I didn't say that, you guessed it yourself." ”

Ren Qiu nodded slightly, lowered his eyes, pinched the wine glass and turned around, he was not surprised when he drank it, Zhou Yuan would attack him sooner or later.

Seeing that Ren Qiu kept talking, Bai Xuan touched his chin and wondered, "You're not curious, how did I know?"

Ren Qiu raised his head and looked at him fixedly.

Bai Xuan was helpless and patted the table: "Okay, I said...... I overheard Senior Brother Huang and Senior Brother Liu say that they want to use you to lure Zhou Yuan into action, and when the time comes, they will seize the handle and attack the second senior brother. ”

"Click~"

The wine glass in Ren Qiu's hand shattered, and he squinted: "Huang Sheng?"

"My Bai family is also a big family in Beishan County, and the business is extensive, even in Dingzhou, there is my shop, and the martial arts academy has to deal with my family, so they don't care about me, that's why I heard it, don't say it, otherwise I'll be in big trouble." ”

"Why help me?"

Ren Qiu let go of his palm and let the fragments fall, and traces of blood dripped down along with the wine.

Bai Xuan pursed his lips: "Lao Tzu hates secretly plotting against people the most, I'm not afraid to tell you, the time I went to Huaxiang Pavilion when I was ten years old, I was denounced, and that person was my own brother......"

"Hey, brother...... But I have to thank him, otherwise Lao Tzu Yuanyang will leak, how to practice martial arts?"

"You're not afraid of me telling me?"

"Will you?"

Ren Qiu stood up and arched his hand, "Thank you, Brother Bai." ”

Bai Xuan waved his hand, called a man, took a new cup, poured wine and said: "Since then, Lao Tzu has been beaten and scolded by the old man, and the resources provided by the family have been reduced by half......"

"Okay, don't talk about me, talk about you. ”

"I also know about you, in fact, there is indeed no contradiction between you and the fifth senior brother, you are just a pawn of Liu Zhuangzhuang, and I want to use you to clean up the second senior brother. ”

"Also, the alien beast meat you bought during this period of time was bought from He Meng, right? Do you think that at that time, how did you, an informal disciple, buy alien beast meat from a formal disciple?"

"Someone instructed?"

Bai Xuan clapped his hands and said, "Yes, Lao Tzu found an opportunity, and if he took He Meng's words, it was Huang Sheng's instructions, which is to let you smoothly impact the qi and blood through the body." ”

Ren Qiu slowly picked up the wine glass, looked at the liquid shaking in the wine glass, and grinned: "Such a deep calculation, worthy of the third senior brother." ”

"You are wrong again, in the eyes of the third senior brother, you are just an ant, but he does it casually, and there are many people like you, but you are the first to break through the qi and blood. ”

"Third Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother, what is the situation, why is there such a big contradiction, the master doesn't care?"

"I don't know. ”

After three glasses of wine, Bai Xuan mentioned the wine jar: "Anyway, what you listen to me is, this hunt for strange beasts, you don't participate, be careful in the county, and go to the Bai family to find me if you have something......"

"Lao Tzu hated the most in his life...... This, this kind of indiscriminate debate...... I'm not afraid to tell you, Brother Ren, my old man is in Dingzhou, take care of everything for me, and after a while, I will ......"

"Come on...... Drinking......"

Bai Xuan staggered, his speech was slurred, his eyes were blurred, and he fell to the ground with a 'snap'.

That's the amount of wine......

Ren Qiu shook his head, drank the wine in the cup, looked at the dark sky outside the window, pinched the wine glass, and immediately shattered.

The Bai family is easy to find, it is a well-known big family in Beishan County, and the business is very big, and almost everyone in Beishan County knows it.

Ren Qiu carried Bai Xuan on his back, lifted the door knocker and knocked, and soon a head poked out of the door's ear: "Are you?"

Immediately, the man took a look, instantly recognized Bai Xuan, and his face changed: "Ouch, my eldest young master...... Why do you drink so much wine, the lord just came back from Dingzhou, you ......"

Bai Xuan was excited, and the alcohol instantly decreased by half, and he said tremblingly: "I, my father is back?"

The man opened the side door: "The master arrived home in the afternoon, and the housekeeper came to order, if you come back, go directly to the master's study......"

"I ......"

Bai Xuan's face turned pale, and he turned his head and cried with a sad face: "Brother Ren, why don't you persuade me to ......?"

"Forget it, I won't tell you, I won't be able to go tomorrow, the day after tomorrow...... The day after tomorrow is estimated to be hanging, how careful you should be. ”

With that, he ran in with a puff of smoke.
