The convoy was slow, and it was seven days before Wei Wuxian arrived in Taiping, a fishing port near the East China Sea, where he accidentally received information from the merchants that he had seen people selling strange ores from the outer islands, but that was many years ago, and it was unknown if anyone was still doing business in this area.

The inhabitants of this town mainly make a living from fishing, and fishing nets and some fishing equipment can be seen hanging everywhere. The market is not large, there are only a dozen people selling goods, mostly common seafood, and his arrival immediately attracts everyone's attention.

Most of the people who come to the market to buy seafood are stewards and domestic slaves of wealthy families, and such a Peugeot Xiaolangjun is rarely seen in Taiping Town.

Poor people have always been timid, and they only dare to peek at them, and they dare not take the initiative to talk to them, in case they anger the nobles, it is not good.

Wei Wuxian glanced at the goods on the stall, but found no ore-like things, so he walked up to an old man who looked a little old and had tanned skin and asked, "Old man, do you know who has ore to sell here?"

The old man was very healthy, and his ears and hearing were good, and he said: "What kind of ore Xiao Langjun wants, I have it at home." ”

Wei Wuxian was overjoyed and said, "I want to, can I go and have a look?"

The old man said, "No problem, Xiao Langjun and so on." After that, he said to the people on the side: "Ergouzi will look at the stall for me, and I will take Xiaolangjun back to see the goods." ”

"Go ahead, it's okay to watch with me!"

The old man then left the market with Wei Wuxian.

Not far from here, his home was a small courtyard made of stones, and there were fishing nets hanging in the yard, and an old woman was mending the holes in it with fishing lines, and when she saw the old man coming back, she said, "Old man, why did you come back so soon, and they were all sold out?"

"No, don't get it, I didn't see any guests coming, go make a cup of tea." ”

Only then did the old woman see Wei Wuxian following behind, and hurriedly stood up and went back to the room to boil water and make tea.

The old man asked Wei Wuxian to sit on the stone bench outside, while he went into the house to look for ore, and after a while, he brought a coarse cloth bag.

"Xiao Langjun, you see if these will work. ”

He placed the coarse cloth bag on the stone table in front of Wei Wuxian, and there were more than a dozen stones of different colors in the coarse cloth bag.

Wei Wuxian only glanced at it and saw that these stones were just ordinary iron ore and good copper ore, not the mica essence stone he was looking for.

He looked at the old man's expectant eyes and said, "I want these, how much is it!"

The old man's nervous expression eased slightly, and he said with a simple smile: "These things are not worth a few dollars, Xiao Langjun just looks at it and gives a few coppers." ”

Wei Wuxian said, "Okay, but I'll inquire again, has anyone seen this kind of thing nearby?" and said as he took out the mica essence stone prepared in advance and put it on the table.

The old man picked up the baby's fist-sized spar on the table and looked at it carefully for a moment before saying, "I seem to have seen this thing from Ermao, but that was a few years ago, and Ermao also died in a shipwreck, and now I haven't seen anyone have this thing." ”

"Are there any other people in the Ermao family you are talking about?"

"There is a daughter-in-law, hey, pitiful, the man is dead, and he is not as good as a dog with two babies!"

Wei Wuxian took out a piece of silver and put it on the table and said, "I want everything, this is the money for the goods and the news just now, but I want to trouble you to take me to find someone from the Ermao family." ”

The old man was stunned by the ingot of silver, and he knew that there were at least five taels without weighing it with his hands, far exceeding his expectations.

"It's too much, Xiao Langjun, the old man doesn't dare to accept it. ”

Wei Wuxian smiled slightly, put the mica essence stone into the storage bag and said, "This money is to buy the news just now, I think it's worth so much." But I still want to ask you to take me to find someone from the Ermao family, do you think it's okay old man?"

After a cup of tea, the old man led him to a nearby shack, which was made of simple planks and stones, and leaked everywhere.

There were a dozen people gathered in front of the shack, several of whom were pulling a ragged woman, and next to her two boys were desperately pulling the woman from being taken away.

Those people looked like some ruffians, completely teasing them, and one of them said: "Yu Wang's family, how good it is to follow Young Master Xiao, why bother guarding this broken family, can your dead ghost man still get out of the sea." ”

"Yes, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the girl in the house, now there is only one breath left, you don't follow Young Master Xiao, where to get money to save her life!"

Undoubtedly, this sentence hit the woman's weakness, and she said to the boy who was holding her and crying: "Little fish let go..."

The boy shook his head, grabbed the pillar next to the shack with one hand, and took the woman's hand with the other, crying, "No, I won't go away." ”

When the old man saw this scene, his eyes immediately moistened, but this was not something he could manage. Pointing to the woman, she said, "She is Ermao's daughter-in-law, Yu Wang." ”

Wei Wuxian nodded and walked over.

Those ruffians had already seen him from the other side, and these guys were very eye-catching, and when they saw that he was dressed extraordinarily, they just watched quietly, and did not act rashly.

Wei Wuxian ignored those ruffians, walked straight to the woman and asked, "Are you Wang Ermao's daughter-in-law?"

Yu Wang didn't know who he was, and nodded stiffly.

"That's good. He said, his eyes fell on the two ruffians who were holding her, and said, "Let it go." ”

His voice was not loud, but the two of them, oppressed by his might, unconsciously let go of their hands and stepped aside.

"Which family are you Langjun, she is the person that Young Master Xiao fancies. ”

The leader of the ruffians had to stand up and speak. He had some scruples, but he was not afraid, in Taiping Town, who would dare to offend Young Master Xiao.

"Noise!" Wei Wuxian couldn't talk nonsense with some ruffians, and with a wave of the sleeve of his right hand, more than a dozen ruffians flew out as if they had been hit the chest with a sledgehammer.

Wei Wuxian ignored those people and said to Yu Wang's family, "Can you go in and sit down for a while?"

Yu Wang was stunned by what was happening in front of him, and the old man stepped forward and said, "Yu Wang, don't be afraid, Xiao Langjun is a good person." Yu Wang nodded indifferently and asked him in a little restrainedly.

The boy named Xiaoyu next to him looked at Wei Wuxian with excitement, in his eyes, Wei Wuxian was the immortal in the story that his mother Yu Wang told him every day before going to bed.

It took a long time for those ruffians to get up from the ground, and the leader said angrily: "The demon who came from nowhere, and he dares to destroy the good deeds of the town guard lord Lang Jun, you two are staring here, I will go to the town guard mansion to find someone." After speaking, he took the other people and wandered in the direction of the town guard's mansion.

Wei Wuxian entered the house, only to see that the four walls of the house were not enough to describe, and on the wooden bed against the wall lay a little girl of eight or nine years old.

He was about to ask about the mica essence stone, but when he saw the little girl's appearance, he felt compassion and walked to the wooden bed, but with a sweep of his senses, he roughly understood the situation of the little girl.

It's hungry!

If you can't eat, your body's resistance will deteriorate, and a little wind chill is enough to kill a seven or eight-year-old child.

He took out a kettle, threw a Pei Yuan Dan into it, and waved at the little boy who was looking at him.

Xiaoyu stepped forward in a few steps.

"You go find a small bowl and pour half a bowl for her to drink, and it will be fine to drink it. ”

Xiao Yu turned his head to look at his mother, Yu Wang's family was much calmer than before, knowing that Xiao Langjun in front of him had no malicious intent, he nodded. Although he didn't think that a bowl of water would save his daughter's life, no mother would give up on her child, and would try as long as there was a glimmer of hope.

Seeing that his mother nodded, Xiao Yu took the kettle, found a tattered bowl and poured half a bowl, ran to the side of the wooden bed in a few steps, helped his sister up and said, "Little girl, drink it quickly, drink it and it will be fine." As he spoke, the tears in his eyes couldn't help but fall, and they all dripped into the bowl.

Yu Wang's family also secretly wiped tears on the side, the family of three lived hard, relying on each other, and no one wanted to leave anyone behind.

The little girl lost consciousness, and Xiaoyu saw that her sister was not moving, and she was anxious and didn't know what to do.

Wei Wuxian stepped forward and grabbed the girl's little hand, and a stream of pure yang qi entered her body from her small hand.

Nourished by this pure yang qi, the girl moved her chapped lips, she could hear the people outside, but she couldn't control her body, and now with Wei Wuxian's help, she could finally open her mouth and drink the water containing the medicinal power of Pei Yuan Dan.

Pei Yuan Dan is the best elixir used by monks to consolidate the true yuan, and it is the supreme elixir for ordinary people. Not long after the half bowl of water was lowered, the girl's face began to have some color, her breathing became stronger, and the whole person's mental state was obviously different from before.

Yu Wang's saw Xiaoyu crying and knelt on the ground, thanking Wei Wuxian for his life.

Wei Wuxian helped them up and said, "It's just a little thing. You can each use one bowl of the remaining half pot of potion, and give the rest to her in three doses, and she should be able to get out of bed in less than two days. ”

Hearing this good news, Yu Wang and Xiaoyu were very happy, but they didn't drink the water in the pot inside, so the precious potion had to be kept for their daughter Xiaoya.

Wei Wuxian said: "That girl has three bowls of enough, too much is not beautiful, you are also very weak now, don't use it now, the effect of the medicine in a few days will dissipate, it will be useless." ”

Yu Wang listened to it, and then drank a bowl with Xiaoyu. After a bowl of belly, they knew why their daughter would improve so quickly, her whole body was warm and extremely comfortable, and some of the previous pain places seemed to have been opened, and it was the best time in her life to feel the best.

The old man on the side was secretly envious, but when he thought of those ruffians and became worried, he was a little embarrassed and said: "Xiao Langjun, the old man is going to go first, I'm afraid those ruffians just now went back to call people, and the young master Xiao they said is the eldest man of the town guard mansion, what do you want to ask, hurry up and ask, it's not good to wait for those ruffians to find someone." ”

Wei Wuxian naturally didn't blame him, it was already very good that the old man could accompany him in before, you must know that this would take a lot of risks afterwards.

"I know, old man, you go back first, I'm here, nothing can happen. ”

The old man had already said what he should have said, sighed, and left the shack.

Yu Wangshi asked: "Xiao Langjun has something to ask the slut, just ask, as long as the slut knows, she will tell the truth."

She didn't know what this mysterious little Langjun wanted to ask her about a widow, could it be that she was the same as that Young Master Xiao, who took a fancy to her appearance?

Yu Wang's family can be coveted by the big man of the town guard mansion, and his appearance is naturally extremely beautiful. When marrying Wang Ermao at that time, they all said that it was a flower inserted in cow dung. But she doesn't think so, in her heart her husband is a very responsible man, responsible, hardworking and simple, and he cherishes her very much.

Originally, the life of a family of four was good, a shipwreck swallowed up Wang Ermao and more than a dozen people on the same boat, and she worked hard with two children in a few years, but it is not easy for a woman to survive in this world, not to mention two children who are growing up.

There are many lustful people around her who covet her, but they are all rejected by her tough attitude. This time I can't hide, but fortunately, Xiao Langjun saved them, Xiao Langjun looks very gentle, and has unimaginable abilities, and saved Xiaoya, if... Yu Wang's face blushed when he thought of this.

Wei Wuxian didn't expect that the woman opposite would think so much at this moment, he took out the mica essence stone from the storage bag, and wanted to ask the other party if he had seen it, but as soon as he looked at the eyes of the two people opposite, he knew that he didn't need to ask, he must have seen it.

"I heard that your husband once got this ore, do you know about it?"

Yu Wang woke up from a mess of thoughts, and at first glance she recognized the ore in front of her, it was this damn ore that made her husband take a huge risk to go to sea with a dozen other people from the town, and never returned.

Wei Wuxian saw the strange emotion in the woman's eyes and said, "Is there something wrong?"

Yu Wang restrained his emotions and said, "I have seen it, and my husband died in a shipwreck because of it. ”

Only then did Wei Wuxian understand why the other party had an abnormal reaction.

"I'm sorry to remind you of the sad things I used to do, but this is a little important to me now, if you can, can you tell me something about it?"

Yu Wang wiped his moist eyes and said, "It's okay, everyone is dead, what can't be said." But it all started three years ago..."

Wei Wuxian quietly listened to her tell the story of the year, it turned out that three years ago, Wang Ermao accidentally went to a small island when he went to sea, and found this strange-looking spare, so he brought some back to sell fish in the market to see if anyone was willing to buy it.

He had asked many people at the time, but they didn't know what this strange ore was, until one day a stranger came in, willing to pay a large price for it, and said that if he was taken to the vein, he could buy him a decent ship.

Wang Ermao had wanted to have a big fishing boat of his own for a long time, and he was very happy when he heard it, and called more than a dozen friends in the town to take the man out to sea to find the island, but he never came back.

As a result, more than a dozen other families were looking for trouble from Yu Wang's family, which made her unable to live in the town, so she sold her original house and moved to this shack to live.

As for the direction of the island, she had only heard that it was about a day's trip from here, in the southeast, surrounded by fog, and the outside of the island were all reefs, and if there was no experience, it was easy for fishing boats to run aground and sink to the bottom of the sea.

In addition, a wall was built around the island, a very high wall, and Wang Ermao did not enter it at the beginning, and found the ore on the floating soil outside.

Wei Wuxian had a general goal, which was relatively much stronger than the previous one, and was about to speak, when he suddenly frowned slightly and turned his head to look outside.

Yu Wang looked over there in surprise, Xiao Yu ran over, and then ran back a few steps and said with an ugly expression on his face: "Mother, there are a lot of soldiers here!"

Yu Wang said in a panic: "It must be someone from the town guard mansion who is here, what should I do." Speaking of this, he looked at Wei Wuxian and said, "Xiao Langjun, you go quickly, don't bother you." ”

Xiao Yu held her hand tightly, looking at Wei Wuxian opposite, in his mind, Wei Wuxian is omnipotent, as long as he raises his hand, he can not only save the little sister, but also make those ruffians pee.

Wei Wuxian smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, it's just right." As he spoke, he walked out of the room and looked to the other side, only to see the ruffians gathered around a young man in Chinese clothes, and the head pointed his finger at the young man in Chinese clothes and said something in his ear.

The young man in Chinese costume is Xiao Jianbo, the big man of the town guard.

He heard about the beauty of the Yu Wang family, and now he saw that the woman behind Wei Wuxian was even more beautiful than he imagined, and his heart was even more itchy, and he slapped the folding fan in his hand a few times and said to Wei Wuxian: "Below is Xiao Dalang from the town guard mansion of Taiping Town, I don't know what this Xiao Langjun is called, in the next clumsy eye, Xiao Langjun should have just come from other places!"

The reason why he didn't make a move was mainly because he saw that Wei Wuxian on the other side had an extraordinary temperament, not like a child of an ordinary family, so he held back his breath and first found out the other party's hypocrisy. In this Taiping Town, he is not afraid of where the other party can run.

Wei Wuxian didn't bother to talk to this scoundrel, his right hand flipped over, and a copper seal appeared in his hand, and then he threw it to the opposite side and said, "See for yourself." ”

The town guard of Taiping Town is a five-grade and five-official, and his status is not low, and his eldest man should not fail to recognize this bronze seal representing Wei Wuxian's identity.

That Xiao Dalang looked at the copper seal carefully in confusion, and the expression on his face became a little stiff after a while.

This is the seal of the seventh son of the Northern Yan King of Great Xia, and the person opposite is actually the unharmed son of the Northern Yan Palace.

Although this is not the Northern Regions, the person opposite can be called Gongzi, and he can only be called Lang Jun, which is the insurmountable gap between the two.

This guy was quick-witted, and immediately reacted, and said to the people around him: "Why are you still standing, don't you follow me to see the unharmed son." ”

He put away the folding fan, took the lead and stepped forward, presented the copper seal with both hands, bowed down and said: "Xiao Jianbo of the town guard mansion doesn't know that the son has arrived, and he has missed the distance, forgive the sins." ”

The ruffians and sergeants on both sides bowed down at a loss, although they didn't know what was going on, but their own big men were like this, and the people on the other side should be very upset.
