Chapter 44: Preparation

Hou Min also noticed Sun Ce.

It looks familiar, as if it is familiar.

However, Hou Min disagreed, there were too many people coming and going on this Qingyun Mountain every day, and it was common to look at dazzling eyes.

Unlike other disciples in the sect, Hou Min often traveled back and forth between the mountains and the mountains.

In addition to the matter of transmitting the message, the most important thing is to assist the sect pill to sell in Qingyun County.

When Hou Min first entered the Qingyun Sect, he heard that there were batches of pills in the sect that were in a hurry to sell, and Hou Min recommended himself to take over the deal.

Several elders in the sect didn't have much hope for this at first, but they still handed over the matter to Hou Min.

The Hou family has been doing business in Qingyun County for more than 40 years and has deep roots. Relying on his connections in Qingyun County, Hou Min quickly sold the pill, and several elders praised Xie Lu very much, saying that they had accepted a good disciple for Qingyun Sect.

But Hou Min found that this was a loss-making deal, and the tax on the pill was much higher than the profit, so Hou Min had an idea and boldly proposed "reasonable" tax avoidance.

When Qingchengzi heard that there was such a way to make money, he immediately hit it off, and simply entrusted the sale of the pill to the Hou family in Qingyun County.

As the head of the Hou family, Hou Ping is unwilling to take risks for this, if this kind of violation of discipline and law is caught by the government, the consequences can be imagined, but for the sake of his sister, he still opened one eye and closed one eye.

Qingyun Sect is not unkind, in order not to affect the Hou family's other transactions in Qingyun County, he bought off the government officials out of his own pocket, and in this way, the problem was fundamentally solved.

In this way, Hou Min's position in the Qingyun Sect is stable and stable, and the tide is rising.

Not in a hurry, Hou Min walked slowly up the mountain.

Yesterday, she noticed that the officers and soldiers of Qingyun County went out of the city collectively to Qingyun Mountain, and inquired and learned that the imperial court sent a forbidden army commander to train the troops.

Hou Min, who had already handed over the message to the four elders, was skeptical about this statement.

She learned from the four elders that the Qingyun County government has been extremely quiet these days, but the city wall is full of lights and colors, and even the county official Chen, who never burns incense and worships the temple, also went to the temple to bow and salute, adding a stick of incense.

Hou Min thought a lot along the way, but didn't come up with a reason.

Outside the mountain gate, Hou Baojun was already sitting by the stone steps of the mountain gate, looking forward to it.

Seeing that his sister finally went up the mountain, Hou Baojun complained: "Grinding and chirping, girl!"

Hou Min smiled and said, "Isn't it just a girl who is shy of flowers in the closed month." ”

For his sister, Hou Min really can't hold it.

Hou Baojun stretched his waist, "Sister, did you see Brother Sun just now, he came to Qingyun Mountain to chop wood!"

Hou Min recalled the familiar figure just now and said, "I saw it, it looks quite strong." ”

Regarding the second half of Hou Baojun's sentence, Hou Min selectively ignored it.

Without waiting for Hou Baojun to reply, Hou Min urged: "Aren't you in a hurry to eat, let's go, let's hurry back to the sect." ”

Hou Baojun stood up and nodded, "Quick, people are iron rice and steel, and they don't eat hungry." ”

Hou Minle smiled, stretched out his hand to hold Hou Baojun's shoulder, and walked into the mountain gate.

...

When he arrived at Xijian Peak and approached the mountainside, Hou Baojun fought between heaven and man, and finally broke free of Hou Min's arm, saying that he was going to shout Fang Cheng to eat together, and before his sister could answer, he walked forward along the fork of the stream, trotted across the stone bridge, and came to the tile house where Fang Cheng lived.

Hou Baojun found that the door was not closed, lifted the sword on his waist, slightly sorted out the hair that was blown away by the wind, and brewed words, Hou Baojun held his head high and took the first step.

Entering the door, Hou Baojun was dumbfounded.

There was a strange woman sitting in the room, and besides, she was good-looking.

Zhao Zhi looked at Hou Baojun, who was a little stunned, and nodded with a smile.

Zhao Zhi except for the villagers and elders who helped the village, Hou Baojun, who lived in a simple house and was rarely in the village, had never seen Sun Ce's daughter-in-law.

Hou Baojun glanced at Fang Cheng lying on the bed, and asked cautiously, "Who are you?"

Zhao Zhi thought for a while and said, "Fang Cheng's relatives. ”

Hou Baojun was stunned again, he hadn't heard Fang Cheng say that he had other relatives besides his parents.

Zhao Zhi was happy and said, "Distant relatives, I heard that Fang Cheng was cultivating immortals, so I came to take a look." ”

Hou Baojun nodded and walked to the bedside.

With Zhao Zhi here, Hou Baojun was obviously a little restrained, and even his steps became a lot more ladylike.

Looking at Fang Cheng who was falling into a deep sleep, Hou Baojun turned around and asked Zhao Zhi, "It's almost noon, why is Fang Cheng still sleeping?"

Zhao Zhi smiled and said, "Fang Cheng has been uncomfortable for the past few days, and he may have to sleep for a long time." ”

Hou Baojun was taken aback, and immediately asked, "Is it sick? Or is there something wrong with the cultivation of immortals!"

Zhao Zhi blinked her soft eyes and nodded, "According to what you say, it's all there." ”

Hou Baojun sighed, and the sword on his waist sank, "I have said a long time ago, this goldfish is not reliable as an immortal master, if you can really cultivate into an immortal master, everyone will go to the river to squat." ”

Hou Baojun's small head was full of Fang Cheng's arrogant words, what instantly became an immortal master, and he could cultivate immortals as soon as he ate it in a stewpot, it was all nonsense, and now it seems that it would be good if people could save their lives.

Zhao Zhi looked at Hou Baojun's self-talk and couldn't help but smile.

Zhao Zhi was not impressed by Hou Baojun, the youngest daughter of the Hou family, but she was not bad.

Although I haven't seen it in the village, I always hear Fang Cheng's father Fang Weiyuan mention the little girl in front of him, and his words are full of praise from his father-in-law for his daughter-in-law, but it hurts Xiao Fangcheng, every time he quarrels with Hou Baojun, his parents are elbows turned out, helping women not men.

Hou Baojun was a little worried about Fang Cheng, looked at Zhao Zhi and asked, "Sister, Fang Cheng is fine, right?"

Zhao Zhi glanced at Fang Cheng, who was breathing steadily, and said, "Isn't it because I'm here, relax." ”

Hou Baojun nodded, said goodbye politely, and prepared to go out.

As soon as I turned around, the doorway was blocked.

On the threshold, a young man with a beautiful face stood.

Fang Aotian leaned against the door frame, his feet against the threshold, and the whole person leaned against the wooden door.

Hou Baojun frowned slightly, who is this, I haven't seen him wearing a gown, is it Fang Cheng's relative?

Out of politeness, Hou Baojun opened his mouth, "I don't know who you are?"

Fang Aotian smiled slyly and said loudly: "Little girl, listen up! If you don't change your name or change your surname, I'm Fang Aotian!"

After that, Fang Aotian reached out and touched the shredded hair next to his ear, chic and calm.

Hou Baojun looked at Fang Aotian like this, speechless for a while.

The surname Fang, that must be Fang Cheng's relative, but this name...

Hou Baojun really didn't dare to compliment, he could only admire that his father and mother were also talents, how serious this thought was to take out this name!

Hou Baojun nodded and said, "Brother Fang, I have to go to the Sword Washing Hall for dinner." ”

When Fang Aotian heard this, he smiled happily: "It just so happens that I'm coming back from there." ”

Fang Aotian waved his five fingers to the wooden table in the room, and there were four more plates of delicious food on the table.

Fang Aotian approached the wooden table and began to report the name of the dish, "This Qingyun Sect's food is really good, boiled fish fillet, and three fresh..."

"Brother Fang" Hou Baojun interrupted Fang Aotian with a loud voice.

Fang Aotian was stunned, this is not finished yet.

Hou Baojun said: "I have to go back to the Sword Washing Hall and say goodbye first." ”

After speaking, Hou Baojun clasped his fists and saluted and stepped out of the door.

Fang Aotian was just about to speak, but he noticed Zhao Zhi's shaking of his head, and simply closed his mouth.

I don't want to eat, I don't eat alone.

Fang Aotian sat at the wooden table and asked Zhao Zhi, "Sister, come to the hour?"

Zhao Zhi shook her head, got up and left the tile house.

In the tiled house, Fang Aotian swallowed vegetables and rice alone, which was not a taste.

With his eyes rolling, Fang Aotian looked up at the eaves and said loudly: "Brother, don't eat insects every day, come down on the hour!"

On the eaves, the octagonal polya fell down and landed on the wooden table.

Fang Aotian looked at the octagonal polyme that was eating, and was full of emotion.

"It's better for us two brothers!"

——

In Qingyun County, Chen Liujia stood outside the gate of Chen's mansion and waited for a long time.

Yesterday, I heard from the porter that Sun Ce did not return all night, and after thinking about it, Chen Liujia simply did not arrange for people to look for him.

This immortal master is also a human being, and if he is a human being, he has seven emotions and six desires, and it is rare to indulge once in a while.

It's just that it's almost noon, why hasn't he been seen for a long time?

Wasn't it that I went to the show to have fun, but I encountered some other situation?

Chen Liujia couldn't hold it for a while, looking at the bustling streets, his heart gradually became anxious.

"I said, Brother Chen, what are you looking at?"

A question sounded in Chen Liujia's ears.

Chen Liujia turned around and found that Sun Ce was already standing beside him.

Immediately clasped his fists and saluted, Chen Liujiale smiled and said: "Brother Sun is really an immortal master, he comes and goes without a trace. ”

Sun Ce plucked out his ears, and there was an expression of enjoyment on his face.

It's still comfortable to stay in Qingyun County.

"What are you waiting for me to do?" Sun Ce went straight to the point.

After Chen Liujia got up, he stretched out his hand and motioned to enter the house to talk in detail.

The two entered the hall one after the other.

Chen Liujia first led Sun Ce to sit on the chair, poured a cup of tea, and then sat on another chair by himself, "Brother Sun, do you know what happened yesterday?"

Sun Ce opened the bowl, didn't need to drink, just sniffed, he had a little headache, whether it was an official or a businessman, how could he like to use tea to entertain guests, so tasteless, Sun Ce put the teacup back in front of the table, and said slowly: "I know, a commander of the forbidden army came to Qingyun County and took one hundred and ten officers and soldiers of Qingyun County to Qingyun Mountain to practice." ”

Chen Liujia was relieved, smiled and nodded, since Sun Ce knows, there must be opinions, officials and immortals, the benevolent see the benevolent and the wise see the wise.

Chen Liujia asked, "I wonder what Brother Sun thinks of this emergency?"

Sun Ce smiled and didn't say anything.

How do I look at it, I saw it in Qingyun Sect.

Thinking of Zhao Zhi's instructions, Sun Ce pursed his lips, "A commander of the forbidden army, he has nothing to do and travels all the way to help you lead the troops for training, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is something in this matter." ”

Chen Liujia nodded and agreed: "Brother Sun, I see you!"

Sun Ce was silent for a moment, picked up the bowl and took a sip of tea, and then said, "My opinion is that you don't be that clear-eyed person. The commander of the forbidden army is four levels older than you, not to mention anything else, at least it means more than three grades, and it is even possible that it is the will of the emperor of the Fuhua Dynasty, you are a first-class official of the eighth grade, don't say that you can't reach the door, just say that the commander came to the official mansion yesterday, I guess I didn't even look at you, you must know that the official level crushes people to death, this truth will always be used whether it is in your government and the opposition officialdom or in our path of cultivating immortals, what you want to clarify now is the issue of your own safety that I talked to you about that day, as well as the issue of the elixir of the Qingyun Sect。 ”

Chen Liujia asked tentatively, "I don't know about the Qingyun Sect, but is it true?"

Sun Ce thought for a while and said, "It's true, but it's about to be a holiday." ”

Chen Liujia was stunned, "What does Brother Sun mean by this?"

Sun Ce didn't speak, and blew the tea in the bowl.

The mist dissipates in the wind.
