Chapter Twenty-Eight: Beishang City
The young man grabbed the eagle's claws in his right hand and a two-foot-long black iron black axe in his left hand, and flew directly towards Chen Xingze.
"Fourth uncle. The young man shouted, and there was a sense of fortitude in his voice.
Chen Xingze hurriedly handed the storage box in his hand to Baili Yuheng, motioned for Baili Yuheng to put it away, and then said to the young man in the air: "Zhang Yuan, why are you here?"
Chen Xingze knew him, and he looked a little similar to Zhang Mingyuan, he was Chen Linze's eldest son, Zhang Yuan, a member of the Zhang family.
The black eagle landed slowly and sent Zhang Yuan to Chen Xingze, and Zhang Yuan nodded at Baili Yuheng.
"My father asked me to spread the news, saying that he asked the Chen family to go to the Zhang family to marry. Zhang Yuan said.
"Hmm, what did the Zhang family say about the bride price?" asked Chen Xingze puzzled.
The sixth elder said that it could be paid in batches, in order to marry Aunt Mingyue to the Chen family, her mother urged her father to ask the family elders every day, and this is the current result. As he spoke, Zhang Yuan observed the surroundings of Zhaobi Mountain.
Chen Xingze nodded a little embarrassedly, he knew very well that if he could explain that the Zhang family would receive and pay the bride price spirit stone in installments, his sister must have paid a lot, and maybe she would be excluded by the Zhang family because of this.
"Yuan'er, go to the mountain with your uncle to sit down, and we will go to Zhang's house to marry in a few days. Chen Xingze said to Zhang Yuan with a smile.
"No, my mother asked me to bring it to you, I have to go back to the family. Zhang Yuan spoke, and handed the storage bag hanging from his waist to Chen Xingze.
Without waiting for Chen Xingze to speak, as soon as Zhang Yuan whistled, the black eagle hovering in the sky swooped down.
This is the black eagle domesticated by the Zhang family, which is generally used by those clansmen who cannot fly.
The black eagle let out a long roar and flew up with Zhang Yuan, and Zhang Yuan said in the air: "Fourth uncle, I hope that the Chen family will stop bothering my mother, and that success depends on their own efforts." ”
This sentence made Chen Xingze frown, and then smiled helplessly, he understood what Zhang Yuan said.
Baili Yuheng patted Chen Xingze on the shoulder, comforted and said, "In less than a hundred years, the Chen family will definitely rise in Xiliangzhou." ”
"I lend you good words, I hope so. ”
The two of them talked and walked towards Zhaobi Mountain.
In the attic halfway up the southern part of Zhaobi Mountain, Baili Tan was studying some elixirs and books on the case.
After Baili Yuheng and Chen Xingze came to the attic, the three of them planned the next matters together.
At present, there are only two most important things, one is to go to the Zhang family to marry, and the other is to go to Beishang City to sell silver stones.
After discussing it for a while, it was decided that Baili Tan and Baili Yuheng's uncle and nephew would go to Beishang City to sell silver stones, and Chen Xingze would take the Chen family to Zhang's house to marry Zhang Mingyue.
Baili Tan, who is at the eighth level of Qi refining, can fly with a sword, and if he takes Baili Yuheng to Beishang City, the speed will be much faster.
After the plan ended, the uncle and nephew of the Baili family did not delay in the slightest, and Baili Tan sacrificed his own flying sword, which was a peachwood flying sword.
The flying sword flashed with blue light, and the two of them stood on top of the flying sword and flew towards Beishang City, five hundred miles away.
After Baili Tan and the others left, Chen Xingze immediately summoned the Chen family to handle the marriage matter.
The Zhang family is a big family and pays more attention to the card field, so Chen Xingze must take the clansmen to the Zhang family to marry very ceremoniously.
In the evening of that day, the uncle and nephew of the Baili family landed outside Beishang City, five hundred miles away from Zhaobi Mountain.
Beishang City is a city in the middle of the Lotus Mountain Range, which is managed and controlled by the Zhang family, the Fu family, and the Duan family among the seven major families in Xiliangzhou.
Beishang City is square, 20 miles apart from north to south, and is surrounded by a blue brick city wall as high as three zhang.
There is a city gate on all sides of the east, west, north and south, and the gate is guarded by the clansmen of the three major families, and everyone who enters the city will be checked and registered.
At this time, Baili Tan and Baili Yuheng were standing at the north gate of Beishang City, and they were being interrogated by the people guarding the city.
The main purpose of the investigation is to find out those loose cultivators who have committed crimes, or monks from some hostile families.
On the wall at the gate of the city are the wanted notices of many major families, and those monks who have offended the big families or committed crimes in other cities will be wanted by some forces with bounties.
Naturally, the two members of the Baili family were not on the wanted warrant, and after registering as a loose cultivator, the two entered Beishang City.
There are Dongcheng districts and Xicheng districts in Beishangcheng, Dongcheng District is generally a place where monks go, and Xicheng District is generally a place where mortals live.
There is a large Xiuzhenfang City in Dongcheng District, which has a dazzling array of Xiuzhen resources, and there are also many shops in the Fangfang City from major families. [Yang 1]
Baili Yuheng had a simple map of Dongcheng District in his hand, and walking on the blue brick street, the two of them crossed several streets and came to a relatively remote attic in Dongcheng District.
The attic is earthy yellow, it is a wooden two-story attic, and the plaque reads two words 'Chen family'.
This is the Chen family's station in Beishang City, where the Chen family's clansmen are stationed.
There was a knock on the attic door, and a young man in his twenties opened the door.
The young man was a little cute, his right eye seemed to have been injured, it was half-closed, he was wearing a white robe, and a Chen character was embroidered on his chest.
"Who are the two Daoists looking for?" the young man clenched his fists respectfully, squinting at his uncle and nephew of the Baili family.
"We just came from Zhaobi Mountain, people from the Baili family. Baili Yuheng responded.
"Oh, people of the Baili family, please come in. The young man immediately stepped back and let the Baili family's uncle and nephew enter the room.
"Auntie, the Baili family is here. The young man shouted at the second floor of the attic.
This squinted-eyed young man's name is Chen Zhen, he is a member of the Chen family's single-character generation, he is twenty-three years old this year, and he has only three innate layers of cultivation with the talent of the four spiritual roots.
After putting the Baili family's uncle and nephew in, Chen Zhen looked directly at the Baili Tan and the others sitting on the chair.
"Is there something wrong with this kid?" Baili Yuheng said to Baili Tan, pointing to his head.
Baili Tan nodded and said, "Looking at his body coordination and the marks on his face, he should have been beaten stupid." ”
At this moment, footsteps were heard on the stairs leading to the second floor, and then a middle-aged woman in a white dress appeared in the field of vision of the two.
The middle-aged woman's eyes were a little cloudy, and the whole person looked a little sloppy, as if she was sick.
Baili Yuheng, who was sitting on the chair, immediately stood up and said to the middle-aged woman, "Is it Sister Chen Meize?"
The middle-aged woman walked down the stairs, looked at Baili Tan and Baili Yuheng and said, "Chen Meize, Chen of the Chen family, I have long heard that you occupy half of Zhaobi Mountain, and today I finally saw the real person!"
Regarding the news of the Baili family, when the Chen family came to Beishangcheng to buy a family a month ago, the family members told her.
Baili Yuheng frowned, he found that this Chen Meize didn't seem to welcome them very much.
