Chapter 21: The Qiao Brothers
Early the next morning, after Li Hui got up, he bathed and changed his clothes under the service of the maid here, and then sat quietly in his room alone.
Suddenly, Li Hui's eyes suddenly opened, and he looked out of the door meaningfully.
In his senses, two young men outside the door had just entered the courtyard and walked towards the place where they lived.
Among these two young people, one has a handsome face, it is that Qiao Tianqi, and the other has a slightly cold face, but his face is vaguely similar to this Qiao Tianqi, and more importantly, this person has the cultivation of the peak of the foundation building period, Li Hui observed that his body was full of spiritual power, and there were faint signs of solidification into a pill, obviously about to step into the realm of Jindan.
This person doesn't look a few years older than Qiao Tianqi, and he can have such a cultivation, and he has amazing talent when he thinks about it.
After a while, the two young men entered the courtyard, and the maid waiting at the door hurriedly stepped forward to bow down, Qiao Tianqi waved his hand to signal the maid not to be polite, and the cold young man stood expressionlessly.
Then the two men continued to step forward, straight to the outside of Da Li Hui's living room. The two stopped together, and Qiao Tianqi stepped forward and said, "Qiao Tianqi and my brother came to visit their seniors together." ”
Li Hui had already noticed the arrival of the two, and when he heard Qiao Tianqi say this, his heart moved, this cold young man turned out to be Qiao Tianqi's brother, and his appearance was indeed seven or eight points imaginary, but it seemed that his personality was very different. I think it's because this cold young man is in the spiritual root and has extraordinary talents.
"Two sons, please come in. Li Hui's voice came from inside the door.
By the time the two pushed the door in, Li Hui was already sitting next to the desk in the room, waiting quietly.
"Senior" Qiao Tianqi came up and saluted, then turned his head and said: "Let me introduce you, this one is my brother-in-law, Qiao Tianjun" and said to the cold young man, "Brother, this is Senior Li who saved my life in the Black Wind Desert." ”
When the cold young man heard this, he stepped forward and hugged his fists and said, "Thank you seniors for saving your life, and the Qiao family should repay you." With that, he stepped aside and said no more.
Li Hui's heart moved, this Qiao Tianjun seemed to be indifferent on the outside, but he was not the kind of lonely and proud person, but his personality was just due to his character.
At that moment, Li Hui said indifferently: "Since you are hired by the firm, it is also a matter of duty, and the two sons don't need to be polite." ”
That Qiao Tianqi was okay, but Qiao Tianjun was slightly stunned, he was ready to ask for a heavy gift from the other party, but he didn't expect this person to understate it, and he didn't take credit, and he had a good impression of Li Hui at the moment.
"If it weren't for the seniors, I'm afraid my brother would really be buried in the desert and couldn't get here, so the seniors must repay this kindness, this intention is to give the seniors and a few other Taoist friends a reward, in addition, if the seniors still have any requirements or can use Dadetong to help, just say it, the juniors must do their best. Qiao Tianjun said and put a storage bag on the table and pushed it towards Li Hui.
Qiao Tianqi looked moved on the side, but he didn't say much.
Li Hui unceremoniously put away the storage bag in front of the two brothers, and his divine sense penetrated into it and found that it contained a large amount of spirit stones.
At that moment, Li Hui did not politely put away the storage bag, because he knew that this was the reward he deserved.
"There may be something really to trouble your business in the future. Li Hui said lightly while putting away the spirit stone.
That Qiao Tianjun's face changed slightly when he heard this, but then he returned to normal, and said lightly: "Senior, please speak, as long as it is not too harsh, our Qiao family will definitely do it." ”
That Qiao Tianqi was silent.
Li Hui knew in his heart that these two brothers were actually the younger brother Qiao Tianqi's scheming was deeper, but Qiao Tianjun had almost no city government, and at this moment, I am afraid that most of them thought that Li Hui was going to open his mouth.
"It's not that difficult to say, I'm just going to ask your firm for a little bit of news. Li Hui said calmly.
"Inquiring about the news?" At this moment, not only Qiao Tianjun, but even Qiao Tianqi was a little stunned. They never expected that Li Hui would only ask for some news in the end.
That Qiao Tianjun's face was slightly red, obviously a little embarrassed by his malicious guess just now.
"Dare to ask the seniors what they want to inquire about, Dade Tong has a lot of business names all over the world, and the news is quite well-informed, maybe it can really help the seniors a little. But it was Qiao Tianqi who opened his mouth to break the siege.
"It's not a big deal, but if this matter really needs to be investigated, I'm afraid it's also a little troublesome" Li Hui said with some solemnity: "I have to inquire about two things in total, one is that I want to inquire about a Xiuzhen sect called Bixiaomen, and the other is that I want to find a place where I can open a sect, preferably a wild place where not many sect forces have set foot in it, these two things, I don't know if your firm has any information about this?"
These two things are also the main purpose of Li Hui coming to Shangzhou from the land of Xiazhou, and when he asked the Qiao family at this time, he also had the mentality of giving it a try.
For a big business alliance like Dade Tong Firm, which has branches all over the world and does business everywhere, it may not be possible to know this information.
That Qiao Tianjun frowned slightly, obviously thinking. Qiao Tianqi looked at Qiao Tianjun, he didn't know as much about these things in the cultivation realm as his brother.
After a while, Qiao Tianjun spoke: "I have never heard of this Bixiao Gate, it must not be a big sect, it sounds a little troublesome, but it is not completely impossible to inquire, as for finding a place where a sect can be established, it is not too difficult, but it is also necessary to check some information to be concretely determined, I heard Tianqi say that the seniors are going to Julu City? In that case, you can ask my second uncle for advice, and his old man may be able to help the seniors solve these problems." ”
Li Hui At first, when Qiao Tianjun said that he had never heard of Bixiaomen, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart, but then he ignited a little hope.
"Yes, Senior Li, I went to Julu City and asked my second uncle to use the power of the family to investigate, and I will definitely be able to find the information that my predecessor wanted. Qiao Tianqi was also in a game.
Li Hui's heart moved, anyway, he had to go to Julu City, and it was okay to meet some of the second uncles of the Qiao brothers, so he nodded and said, "So it's tiring." ”
"Then our brother will say goodbye first, and ask the seniors to stay here for a few more days, and then we will go to Julu City together" Saying that, Qiao Tianjun took out a bronze medal from his arms and handed it to Li Hui: "If the seniors have anything to buy, as long as it is a store under the Dade Tong firm, you can enjoy a half-price discount with this card." ”
Li Hui took the bronze medal and thanked him, and the Qiao brothers then left.
Li Hui played with the bronze medal in his hand, which was engraved with the marks of the Qiao family and Dadetong, and recalled all the things that had happened along the way. He never imagined that he would run to a place that was almost completely cut off from the world where he had grown.
This land of Shangzhou is almost completely isolated from the land of Xiazhou, and it is almost impossible for him to go back to Xiazhou at this time, even if he can use the Lou family's teleportation array, but he does not have the best spirit stones to consume.
However, the situation in Shangzhou is much better than Li Hui imagined, and he can have a hunch that he will definitely make something in this world.
After sitting alone for a while, Li Hui got up and left the room and walked into the courtyard, just in time to meet a graceful figure. Liu Piaoxu saw Li Hui coming, bowed slightly and said, "The concubine has seen the sect master." ”
"Elder Liu doesn't have to be polite" Li Hui waved his hand, at this time, this Sword Sect was nominally established, but in fact it was just a few of them.
Liu Piaoxu was no longer polite, and walked side by side with Li Hui.
"What about the others?" asked Li Hui.
"Several elders are meditating and cultivating. Liu Piaoxu replied.
Li Hui nodded, the life of a cultivator is like this, always in constant meditation and cultivation, the world envies the longevity of a cultivator, but in fact, the cultivator spends most of his time in boring cultivation. Once you relax, you will not advance or retreat.
"Sect Master, who are you?" asked Liu Piaoxu.
"I want to walk around the city to the east, and maybe I'll find something useful. ”
"Oh, the concubine is also about to go to this city, so let's go with the sect master. ”
Li Hui nodded, and the two of them left the mansion together and went to the city.
This eastern city is huge, and after the two of them inquired, they came to a street where there are many markets, which are specially supplied for all kinds of cultivators.
The two of them had no purpose, just walked and looked, browsing the items in the various stores, and occasionally buying some items.
Here, you will occasionally find some items that are regarded as lost and extremely difficult to find in the land of Xiazhou and Chuzhou, but they are ordinary things in Shangzhou, and the price is very different from Xiazhou.
Liu Piaoxu was originally the real power elder in the Wanbao Building, and he was most familiar with the prices and categories of various heavenly and earthly treasures, elixir materials, magic weapons and spiritual weapons, and at this time, he was overjoyed when he saw such a situation.
"Sect Master, look, that's a blood vine, it's definitely a sky-high price in Chuzhou, and that Bai Zhilan is less than half the price in Chuzhou...... You see, the Wind Spirit Grass, which was just an ordinary thing in Chuzhou, was sold at such a high price here......
Liu Piaoxu couldn't stop exclaiming, attracting the sideways eyes of the surrounding crowd, but after feeling the terrifying coercion coming from the two of them, no one dared to look at it anymore.
Li Hui smiled bitterly in his heart, it seems that shopping with a woman is really a wrong decision.
At this time, the two walked into a small shop. This shop is very different from the other shops in the vicinity, almost like a grocery store, and it is also a grocery store with a lot of thrift goods.
On the shelves around are scattered some yellow-haired old books mixed with some jade slips, in addition to some various materials, spiritual weapons, and pills. The most are all kinds of bottles and cans of pills.
Inside, an old man who looked to be about sixty years old was listlessly leaning back on a chaise longue, his eyes narrowed, and no one opened them. If it weren't for the aura of a foundation building monk exuded from this old man, Li Hui and Liu Piaoxu would have thought that this was a mortal old man with dizzy eyes.
