Chapter 43: The Six Forces
Lin Peng was a little overjoyed, he just saw him raise his heart to his throat. He didn't want to worry about it, but his curiosity made him want to find answers. Even though he knew it was extraordinary and life-threatening.
The next day, Bai Mo clamored Lin Peng to go out for a walk, and Lin Peng also readily agreed, and he should also buy some things. The three iron spears taken from the machine spirit realm have been destroyed and lost in the elven realm. The two iron guns bought in Baiyan City were also abandoned by Lin Peng because of their lack of weight. The high-end weapon "Lingyun" is not enough to defend against people, and if the strength does not allow it, don't make trouble for yourself. So he urgently needed to buy some heavy guns, preferably a blacksmith to customize them. And he also wants to buy some food that is easy to store, and there are too many uncertainties in today's days, and he can't say that he will run out of rations one day, which can be regarded as a preparation. The most important thing is that they need to buy some clothes, Bai Mo naturally doesn't need it, but Lin Peng and Yan Qing can't, now the two of them are wearing sewing and mending, tattered.
After settling the account in the inn, a few people began to wander around, and there was a fabric shop not far from the door, and they directly selected two pieces of medium cloth and carried them away. Next door is the tailor's shop, Lin Peng and Yan Qing measured the size, and then threw the whole cloth to the tailor and customized it in batches. When the tailor heard this, he was stunned for a moment, but then he smiled happily, saying that he could give it a cheaper price at the checkout. Lin Peng heard that it could be cheap, and immediately felt that this tailor was kind enough, and praised it in person, causing the tailor to snicker. After a certain time to pick up their clothes, the three of them went out.
This city is still prosperous, there are stalls on both sides of the street, and people are also bustling, so it is not lively. At this time, someone came on horseback not far away, followed by a group of officers and soldiers on foot. I saw that the people around me all flashed away when they saw this, and stood respectfully on both sides of the road. Lin Peng looked at the man, a middle-aged man, wearing a black hair crown with a black double flute, a pair of deep eyes revealing a sense of arrogance over everything, a long beard, and a purple brocade dress. Under him is a reddish-brown BMW, powerful and domineering.
After asking the next person, I knew that this person Feng Jing, the fifteenth generation head of the City Lord's Mansion, is also the city lord of this Qiancheng, and he is a strong person in the sixth stage of qi. The city lord's mansion is the head of the six major forces in Qiancheng, with 50,000 mercenaries, and is ordered by the state to receive 100,000 people in Anqian City, which is counted as a prince.
When I asked about the six major forces in this city, in addition to the city lord's mansion, there were four major families, the Bo family in the east of the city, the Chu family in the south of the city, the Ao family in the west of the city, the Ming family in the north of the city, and the Wenling Temple in the mountain behind the city. Most of the people in the city are dependent on these major forces, except for Wenling Temple, who is not familiar with the world, the other five families have already interconnected with each other, and the relationship can be described as complicated.
Lin Peng meditated on these major forces in his heart, and suddenly thought of something. Uncle family? Bo Yao may be a member of this uncle's family, but listening to his tone, it seems that he is not everyone in this city, why is this? There is also the person who took the jade pendant at the city gate last night, and the costume must be among these major forces. Then the matter of possessing Bo Yao will not be so simple.
Lin Peng couldn't help but be a little lucky, fortunately he wasn't found last night, otherwise he might face the pursuit of several major forces, and he didn't know how he died. It's okay to be curious, and it's okay to want to know the answer, but there are some things that you know you can't do, and that's stupid. So he decided to let it go first.
Next, a few people came to a dry goods store, dried fish, bacon, ham, and all the meat that could be seen in the store came to three servings, and the boss didn't think it was strange, and kept asking Lin Peng which of the five major forces in the city to purchase, and Lin Peng was also deceived and fooled. When he didn't want to leave, the boss stuffed a red envelope, which Lin Peng also gladly accepted and accepted it in full.
Lin Peng thought about it, everything that should be purchased was purchased, and the weapons were missing, so he asked the owner of the dry goods store for directions, and the three of them set off. Before he could find it, Lin Peng was attracted by a fragrance, and even Yan Qing, who had not been smiling all day, showed a happy expression, not to mention Bai Mo, who excitedly pointed in the direction where the fragrance came from. Lin Peng took three steps and two steps into the store, and before the store could introduce him, he and Yan Qing sniffed them one by one, and their expressions were very intoxicated. has been together for a long time, and the tacit understanding is needless to say, the two chose a flavor at the same time, and even Bai Mo nodded in agreement.
"Boss, that's it, bring me ten altars. Lin Peng said.
The boss looked at Lin Peng for a moment and asked, "Does Xiaoyou need ten small altars?"
Before Lin Peng could answer, Yan Qing hurriedly said, "Ten altars, ten altars." ”
The boss instantly piled up wrinkles on his face, took the initiative to come over, and said, "Master, wait a minute." ”
He instructed the guy in the store to move the wine from the back hall to the front hall, and then he asked, "Master, where do you live?
Lin Peng raised his hand and shook it, but did not speak.
When the boss saw the bracelet, he immediately understood, and ordered to bring out an extra jar of wine, and said respectfully: "This jar of good wine is given to the master, and I hope the master will take care of it in the future." ”
Lin Peng laughed, this store should also regard him as a member of the five families in the city. Not to mention, these five major forces do have a great position in the city, he just bought simple items, and he got such respect, and he stuffed red envelopes and sent wine, Lin Peng wanted to find a family to do long-term work.
Then, the three of them went out and left with the respectful eyes of the shopkeeper.
