As soon as he walked out of the hotel, Ou Chuyang heard a shout from behind him: "Help, help." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Ou Chuyang frowned and turned his head to look at the voice, as soon as he turned around, Ou Chuyang saw that a figure had arrived in front of him, unguarded, Ou Chuyang was hit by this figure, and helped the figure up, only then did he see clearly that it was a thin young man who hit him, wearing a coarse cloth coat with a face-filler.

Before Ou Chuyang could speak, the young man pulled Ou Chuyang and said, "Sir, save me, the people behind me want to kill me." After speaking, Ou Chuyang, who was confused, ran quickly.

At this time, a few people came running behind, and Ou Chuyang blocked the front at once, and said loudly: "Stop, you are too bold to commit murder in broad daylight." ”

"Stinky boy, get out of the way. Beware of Lao Tzu abolishing you. One of them said menacingly.

"Still scolding?" As he spoke, Ou Chuyang was about to step forward to make a move, and several people from the other party also surrounded him.

At this moment, one of the middle-aged men walked out and stopped his companion and said, "Little brother, don't get me wrong, that person was a thief just now, he stole our things, and we chased him, don't fall for him." ”

"Huh?" After listening to the middle-aged man's words, Ou Chuyang subconsciously moked his pocket, and it was really empty.

A group of people looked at Ou Chuyang and didn't stop him anymore, and didn't say much, and chased in the direction where the thief had just fled.

"He lied to me and stole my things. Thinking of this, he suddenly trembled violently, and Ou Chuyang found that the ethereal ring on his hand was also missing, and suddenly Ou Chuyang was shocked: "Oh no, my ring." Thinking of this, Ou Chuyang closed his eyes, felt carefully, and suddenly found a faint fluctuation of spiritual power not far ahead. Following this fluctuation, Ou Chuyang chased after him.

In the narrow alley, a thin young man was smiling and counting the gold coins in his hand. "Haha, a lot, I can't see that kid is really rich, tsk. The young man was the thief who had just bumped into Ou Chuyang, and at this time, he was counting the "loot" in the alley: "What kind of broken thing is this, it is a ring made of iron, and he actually stole such a worthless thing." With that, the thief threw the ring out, turned and was about to walk out of the alley.

"Bang", the ring did not land, but was picked up by a person, and then a voice came: "What, where are you going?"

Hearing the sound, the thief was startled, turned around and took a look, and immediately ran out of the alley. However, he only ran two steps, and saw a figure in front of him, and the thief hurriedly stopped and stepped back step by step.

"What are you going to do?" the thief asked tremblingly.

Blocking the thief's way was naturally Ou Chuyang, with the spiritual imprint left on the ethereal ring, Ou Chuyang quickly found the thief's hiding place, and when he arrived, it was just when the thief threw away the ethereal ring.

"You stole my stuff and asked me what I was going to do?"

"Sir, don't kill me, I'm wrong, I have an eighty-year-old mother and a son under the moon, please raise your noble hand...... Ah, yes, sir, I don't want your gold. Seeing Ou Chuyang's angry expression, the thief immediately knelt on the place, snot and tears begged for mercy.

The thief's sudden exaggerated performance made Ou Chuyang stunned, and thought to himself: "Damn, this person is really able to bend and stretch, I knelt down before I could do anything to him, okay, I will save trouble." ”

Taking the gold coin, Ou Chuyang said impatiently to the thief: "Okay, okay, don't pretend." Get up and answer me a few questions, and if you answer well, I'll let you go. ”

Hearing this, the thief jumped up from the ground violently, and said with a flattering smile: "Mr. is the first time to come to Qipan Town, if you have anything to understand, please ask, the villain knows everything." ”

As if disgusted with thieves, Ou Chuyang waved his hand and asked, "What's your name?"

"The villain's name is Ma Liu, and he is from Chessboard Town..."Ma Liu said with a hesitant smile.

"I'm here for the first time, and I don't know anything about it yet, so tell me about it. ”

"What does the gentleman want to know?"

"Just say something valuable, if you say yes, maybe I'll give a reward." ”

"Mr. is the first time to come, Qipan Town is the second only to the imperial capital of the big city, here to eat, play all the places, if Mr. wants to eat some specialties here, you can go to Guanghe Restaurant, where the most delicious things. ”

Seeing that Ou Chuyang didn't speak, Ma Liu continued: "If Mr. wants to find a place to play, I can introduce Mr. to the Red Mansion, which is frequented by many children of big families, dignitaries and nobles, where you can see singing, dancing, storytelling, and most importantly, the girls there are very beautiful, if Mr. has enough gold coins, ......." ”

Ou Chuyang is not a ten-year-old child, seeing Ma Liu's obscene expression, he immediately knew what he wanted to say, and before he could finish speaking, Ou Chuyang waved his hand and interrupted: "These are worthless, say something useful." ”

"Oh yes, look at Mr.'s appearance, he looks like a cultivator, if Mr. wants to buy special treasures such as martial arts, mental methods, and elixirs, you can recommend Mr. to go to the Marlin Auction House on West Street to have a look, maybe there are things that Mr. needs."

"Auction house?"

"Yes, that's the headquarters of the Marin Chamber of Commerce in Chessboard Town, the Marin Chamber of Commerce is a relatively large chamber of commerce in the empire, they are involved in various industries, and the auction house is one of their most profitable businesses, and the things sold in it are treasures. ”

"Well, is there anything else?"

His eyes rolled around, and Ma Liu continued: "Yes, there is a branch of Dantang on East Street, if Mr. wants to refine any pills, you can go there, as long as Mr. has the raw materials for refining pills, the people of Dantang will help you refine them, and the cost is very low, it is definitely much cheaper than buying." ”

Saying this, Ma Liu slowly came to Ou Chuyang's face, looked around and said cautiously: "If Mr. wants to find out what news or kill someone, the villain can introduce you to someone from the Killer Alliance." As long as you have the money, they will do anything for you. ”

Hearing this, Ou Chuyang frowned, took two steps back, and said, "You really know everything?"

"Hey, sir, complimented. Bowing slightly, Ma Liu smiled.

"No, this is for you, be careful when stealing things in the future, don't look away, you won't always have such good luck." Let's go, don't let me see you again. As he spoke, Ou Chuyang took out a gold coin and threw it towards Ma Liu, who received the gold coin and said respectfully with a smile: "Yes, yes, thank you, sir, you are really a good person." ”

Ignoring Ma Liu's sycophancy, Ou Chuyang walked out of the alley, recalling Ma Liu's words as he walked, thinking that this world is so big, it's really strange, the auction house, Dantang, and the Killer Alliance, it's really interesting.

Out of the alley, Ou Chuyang followed the route guided by the hotel guy, came to the Renhou antique store, and walked to the door of the store, Ou Chuyang's mood became unnaturally excited, "Maybe here, I can find out the news of the old man." Walking into the antique shop, I saw that two guys, an old man and a young man, were busy with something. Stopping a young man, Ou Chuyang asked, "Is Fang Tang here?"

Hearing Ou Chuyang's words, the young man looked at Ou Chuyang carefully, and then said, "Fang Tang? ”

"No, it can't be, think again. Ou Chuyang asked unrelentingly.

"Not really, sir, if you want to buy something, you can look at it casually, if you don't sell it, please don't disturb our business. The young man was a little impatient and began to give an eviction order.

"Oh. Ou Chuyang shook his head and thought, "How is it possible, could it be that the old man lied to me?"

At this moment, another old fellow came over and asked, "What's the matter?"

"This person came to find a man named Fang Tang. The young man pointed at Ou Chuyang and replied.

"Hmm, you go and get the goods down there, be careful, I'll greet this person. After speaking, the young man walked towards the face, and then the old man smiled at Ou Chuyang and said, "May I ask the little brother, you are looking for someone?"

"Well, find Fang Tang. Do you know the old man?" Ou Chuyang immediately replied when he heard the old man's inquiry.

The little brother took a step to speak. With that, the old man pulled Ou Chuyang to the store.

"Excuse me, little brother, do you have any tokens?" asked the old man.

"Tokens? Oh, there is. As he spoke, Ou Chuyang took out the dark green sign and handed it over.

After taking the sign, the old man took a closer look, with a hint of intriguing light in his eyes, handed the sign back to Ou Chuyang and said, "Little brother, please come with me." After speaking, he shouted to the young man: "I'll talk to this gentleman about some business, and you look at the storefront." ”

"Good!" replied the young man.

The old man turned his head and said politely to Ou Chuyang: "Please!" Ou Chuyang returned a salute to the old man, and then followed the old man to the inner courtyard.

Entering the inner courtyard and walking to the center of the courtyard, the old man stopped and said to Ou Chuyang: "Little brother, please wait a moment." After saying that, he walked to the door of a room, stretched out his hand and knocked rhythmically.

At this time, a voice came from inside: "What's the matter?"

"The shopkeeper, someone is looking for it. The old man replied.

"You go out first. The voice inside came out again.

"Yes. Immediately afterwards, the old man didn't pay any attention to Ou Chuyang anymore and silently walked out of the inner courtyard. Threw Ou Chuyang alone in the middle of the courtyard.

After a while, the door of the house opened, and a middle-aged man in his thirties walked out of it, this person was on the thin side, his steps were steady, his eyes were shining, he was obviously a cultivator, judging from the momentum on his body, his strength should be higher than Ou Chuyang.

"Hey, he's a master. Ou Chuyang thought in his heart.

"Are you looking for me?" The middle-aged man stood at the door, his eyes suddenly showed a hint of imperceptible surprise, and he looked at Ou Chuyang and asked.

"You're Fang Tang?"

"Who told you to come to me?"

"Old... Ahem, Fang Lao. Ou Chuyang replied.

"What's the proof?"

"He gave it to me. As he spoke, he threw the dark green sign over.

Taking the sign, Fang Tang looked at it, then nodded and said to Ou Chuyang: "Talk inside." Then he went into the house. Ou Chuyang also followed suit.

The decoration and furnishings of the house are very ordinary: there is only a table, two chairs, a bed in it, a landscape painting hanging on the wall, and a cabinet next to the bed with several antiques on it.

"Sit. As he was looking at the room, Fang Tang spoke.

"Thank you. Ou Chuyang politely sat down.

"Is there something wrong with me?"

"It's nothing, in fact, I just want to ask, do you know where he is now?" Ou Chuyang asked a little embarrassed, in fact, it was no wonder that he was embarrassed, originally Fang Lao gave him this brand because he was afraid that he would have something that he couldn't solve when he was outside, so he came here to ask for help, but Ou Chuyang actually used this brand to find Fang Lao's whereabouts.

Fang Tang looked at Ou Chuyang and said, "I can't tell you this. ”

Hearing Fang Tang's answer, there was no surprise to him, Fang Tang didn't tell him Fang Lao's whereabouts, in fact, Ou Chuyang already knew the answer when he came, if Fang Tang could tell him, then Fang Lao didn't have to hide his whereabouts when he left.

He shook his head with a wry smile, lowered his head and said softly, "I knew that you couldn't tell me." But I still want to ask, how is he doing now?"

Feeling the true feelings revealed in Ou Chuyang's words, the grim expression on Fang Tang's face finally melted a little: "He's fine now." ”

Ou Chuyang was silent for a while, and then asked, "I heard that the Shangwu Academy recruits students here every year, I don't know if there is such a thing. ”

Fang Tang was slightly stunned and replied, "Yes, the Shangwu Academy recruits students from all over the empire every year, this has become a common practice, why are you asking this?"

Ou Chuyang didn't answer Fang Tang's question, and then asked, "When was the last time you recruited students?"

Hearing that Ou Chuyang didn't answer him, Fang Tang didn't care, and spoke carefully for Ou Chuyang: "There are still four months, Shangwu Academy recruits students around February every year, and the number of students recruited in various places is different each time, a big city like Qipan Town will recruit a hundred people every year, due to the limited number of places, when enrolling, it will be screened in the designated place in the city, as long as you can enter within a hundred, you can be admitted to Shangwu Academy and become a student there." What do you want to do with the martial arts?"

"I want to check it out. Ou Chuyang nodded affirmatively.

Although he was affirmed by Ou Chuyang, Fang Tang obviously still didn't believe it, according to the information given by the organization, Ou Chuyang was obviously unable to cultivate internal qi, and it was impossible for such a person to enter the Shangwu Academy. However, looking at Ou Chuyang's determined expression, it didn't look like he was talking casually. And when Ou Chuyang first entered the courtyard, he also felt that Ou Chuyang's body had a faint momentum, although it was not like the internal qi he was familiar with, but under his own pressure, Ou Chuyang not only did not feel the slightest discomfort, but was more energetic, as if he was fighting against him.
