Chapter 3 Beihan Mansion
At the foot of the mountain, there is a Tianzheng Temple.
This is the people of the Northern Han Pass, used to worship the old immortal master Shang Tianzheng.
Even in the great drought season, there are still people who come to worship and pray.
Or hope that the old immortal master can bless them through the difficult time, or pray that the old immortal master is safe and sound.
It also spread among the people, and it was said that the old immortal master had extremely serious dark wounds on his body in order to fight against the barbarian strong, which had not healed for a long time.
There are some stalls in front of the temple, all of which sell incense, incense and candles for prayer.
These people were shivering in the cold wind, their clothes were a little shabby, their faces were very bad, and in a stall, there was a little girl snuggled in her father's arms.
Shang Yin walked over, took out a piece of silver from his body, and said, "Buy some food for the child." ”
"Little Immortal Master, I can't help it!" The middle-aged man who set up the stall had a complicated expression.
"It's okay, take it, don't let the child go hungry. Shang Yin placed it on his stall and turned to leave.
He knew that some time ago, he drank heavily every day, and the people of Li were very disappointed in him, feeling that the old immortal master had no successor, but he just didn't say it.
"Can you tell me what the situation is now?" Shang Yin asked.
"Many young men wanted to go out to hunt and find some food, but eighty percent of the people who went failed to come back and died outside the customs. The middle-aged man said, his eyes red: "If it continues like this, everyone will have no way to live." ”
Shang Yin knows very well that it is urgent to solve the food problem of the people in Guanzhong, and now that the new year is approaching, they must always have a good year.
"Alas, I want to earn back a little bit of your lost fame. Shang Yin had already made up his mind in his heart, he patted the middle-aged man's shoulder and said, "Take care of the child." ”
"Thank you, Little Immortal. The man hurriedly got up and saluted, and the little girl also made a gesture to his back in the wind and snow.
"How do you want to help them?" Su Jiuwei knew that he really wanted to help these people.
"Of course I went to Beihan Mansion, Gao Li is their parents. Shang Yin said solemnly.
"A few days ago, you were just beaten by Gao He, but I am afraid that they will beat you from the bottom of their hearts and look down on you. Su Jiuwei sighed.
"As long as I don't look down on myself. Shang Yin knew that in this life, he was too conceited, and he had carried a lot of hopes and fame since he was a child.
has never been able to solve the secret of the tortoise shell, and he has not been able to cultivate, coupled with the rumors of the old immortal master, which makes him more and more depressed in his heart, which will make him so embarrassed.
But he is different, in his previous life, he was self-made, starting from the bottom, and his skin is thicker.
Soon, the two came to the Beihan Mansion.
It was covered in snow, like a fierce beast.
There were twelve guards standing at the door, all of whom had just entered the spirit realm.
Several great realms of cultivation.
Mortal realm, spirit realm, immortal realm, god body realm.
Shang Tianzheng was in the Immortal Body Realm, infinitely approaching the Divine Body Realm.
There are very few people who can reach the realm of the god body, which is why the old immortal master is called the first person in the Xia Kingdom.
"Yo, isn't this a little immortal master?" led by one of the guards, smiling with mockery.
"Lao Bo reported to General Gao Li, saying that Shang Yin asked to see him. He ignored the mockery on the guards' faces.
"Yes. "The guards of the Northern Han Mansion also know that after all, he is the only grandson of the Old Heavenly Master, and his identity is there, but he is just some waste, and they really don't dare to block him from the door.
But after a while, the guard said, "The general is invited." ”
Shang Yin and Su Jiuwei were led all the way to the main hall of Fuzhong by the guards.
There is a huge copper stove in the hall, which burns charcoal and emits heat.
A middle-aged man, dressed in battle armor, has reached the immortal body realm, it is none other than the general of the Northern Han, Gao Li.
He has sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and his face is heroic, but he just sits there, not angry and arrogant.
After all, Shang Yin grew up beside the old immortal master since he was a child, even if he was not afraid of facing the immortal body realm, he was neither humble nor arrogant, and bowed: "I have seen the general." ”
Su Jiuwei, who was on the side, also stood and saluted.
"Little Immortal Master, please sit down, a few days ago, I just heard that the dog was negligent in discipline and rude to you, and I have already punished him for grounding for a month. Gao Lipi didn't smile, knowing that Shang Yin was only going to ask for an explanation.
"That day, I was drunk, and I was humiliated by the people in the Beihan Mansion, and I was also carried away, and I actually used the body of a mortal to swing my fist at the Gao He prince of the mortal realm, which was really beyond my strength. After Shang Yin sat down, he said.
"I don't know how the little immortal master is injured now, what compensation do you need, just ask. Gao Li patted his chest, he also felt that this matter was not appropriate, and said: "I dare to act in the Beihan Mansion, and I will never shirk it." ”
"On that day, Gao He Gongzi performed a famous and cold and dark energy, if it wasn't for my grandfather to leave me some means, I'm afraid I would have died. Shang Yin said calmly: "Be reasonable, even if I was drunk that day and was beaten up, it would be okay, after all, I took the humiliation on myself first, Gao He Gongzi is such an identity, and he is at the peak of the fetal realm, and he wants my life with cold water for me, isn't it appropriate? ”
"What?" Gao Li didn't know about this, his brows furrowed, and the temperature in the main hall suddenly seemed to drop by a few degrees, which made the servants who were waiting on the side feel frightened.
"It seems that the general should not know, after all, you have guarded the Northern Cold Pass for generations, fought bloodily for the people of my Xia Kingdom, and in the first battle of the year, you were injured in nineteen places, and you still fought to the death. "Shang Yin had already figured out what to do before he went down the mountain.
"Little Immortal Master, if you have any requirements, just ask. For the first time, Gao Li felt the determination that burst out of Shang Yin's body, and he advanced and retreated in a certain way.
Shang Yin smiled lightly: "This time I came, it was not to liquidate Ling Gongzi, now that the people of Guanzhong have suffered from natural disasters, can they open a granary to help the people and let them survive this cold winter?"
"Little Immortal Master, you are not at home, you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are, continuous droughts, and my general's mansion is not having a good time, you said that if I can't eat enough for the soldiers in this pass, who will protect them? You should know how ferocious the barbarians outside the gate were back then, and I had to plan for the worst. Gao Li pushed it all away in a few words, if he had ordinary grain in his hand, he would naturally do it, and he should sell face, but he had already used this grain and grass to do favors.
Even if there is grain in his hand, there has been a drought in Guanzhong for two years, and he has been pressed in his hand for a long time, and Shang Yin will release it as soon as he comes, and it will inevitably make people complain a lot.
"But I heard that there is a lot of rice grain over there in the Great Xia Chamber of Commerce, and the little immortal master can go there to take a look. He knew that Gao He's cold and dark strength with water was true, and it was not good for him to make a big fuss, although many people rumored that the old immortal master was seriously injured and his time was short, as long as he didn't die, it was not good to offend.
"Hey, Daxia Chamber of Commerce, it costs money to go to that place, I have always been poor in Tianzheng Taoism, I don't know what the general said just now that he would compensate me, but can you still make a number?" Shang Yin smiled and said.
"Make a number, how much compensation is needed, the little immortal master said that the number is. Gao Li knows very well that there are still many people in Xia Guozhong who are willing to sell the old immortal master to save face, and if they really want to make a big fuss, they are afraid that the result will be more serious.
"I'm not a lion with a big mouth, a million gold is fine. Shang Yin said slowly, he knew that this money was a drop in the bucket for the Great General's Mansion.
"Well said, well said. Gao Li readily agreed, and directly took out a million golden tickets, which were issued by the Great Xia Chamber of Commerce: "Little Immortal Master, please take it away!"
"The outside world is rumored that Gao Li is a strong general in the war, but the governance of internal affairs is not satisfactory, there are many people in the imperial capital who are going to install a person in charge of Guanzhong's internal affairs in the North Cold Pass, and now there has been a famine in Guanzhong for two years, if you add me to this matter, I am afraid that they will be able to find a reason to send people down, which is not a good thing for the general, if it is not for the fact that I have always respected the general's person, this face will definitely not be given. Shang Yin's words were very gentle, and after taking the golden ticket, he said with a smile: "Okay, I have received the general's compensation, and the matter of Gao He will be revealed." ”
"Thank you, Little Immortal. "Gao Li was in the immortal realm, he never thought that he would be so passive in front of such a child as Shang Yin, he personally sent Shang Yin out of the mansion, with a warm smile, which made the guards in front of the general's mansion silent, how many people can let General Gao Li personally send?
Obviously, Shang Yin could have taken advantage of this matter to knock him hard, but he only took a million gold, which is a meaning, as he said, if this matter goes up, he can't grasp it in the military and political affairs of Beihanguan, and the loss is immeasurable.
Now Shang Yin asked him for a million gold, and made him feel that he owed him a favor.
He watched Shang Yin and Su Jiuwei until they disappeared into the wind and snow.
