Chapter 252: Han Gongzi
When Huangfu Tianchi told He Zhi about this place, he didn't expect that their Ten Thousand Swords Sect would call that island "Wangtian Island in the East China Sea", but in the mouths of these boatmen who made a living by the sea in the Great Zhou Dynasty, maybe that island was a completely different name.
However, since the place "East China Sea Wangtian Island" could not be found, He Zhi simply did not look for it. Anyway, He Zhi can be sure of one thing, he is definitely not the only one who wants to go to this "East China Sea Wangtian Island" to find the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
According to Huangfu Tianchi, every time the Ten Thousand Swords Sect opened the mountain gate, there were hundreds of people who went to Wangtian Island in the East China Sea to "seek immortal fate". With so many people gathered in such a few days and rushed to Wangtian Island, He Zhi didn't believe that they would leave no traces.
Moreover, among these people who went to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect to seek immortal fate, there were not only those cultivators who had achieved cultivation, but also many ordinary mortals who came here in excitement just because of hearsay.
He Zhi didn't need to find Wangtian Island in the East China Sea, as long as he could find someone who was going to go to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect!
"Hmm...... This little old man doesn't know much either. However, if the guest officer really wants to know, Xiao Lao'er can inquire carefully for you tomorrow. "The old boatman accepted He Zhi's gold leaf, but he was very serious and responsible.
"Okay, then please ask the old man. He Zhi smiled at the old boatman.
This old boatman himself is a simple man, and He Zhi's gold leaf also gives the old boatman enough motivation. So the next day, the old boatman got up early in the morning, and before dawn he had already run to the dock, He Zhi inquired about the situation of the guests who had gone to sea in the past few days.
By noon, the old boatman had come back in a hurry.
"Guests, guests. With a smile on his face, the old boatman sat down opposite He Zhi, took a sip of water and continued, "I have inquired! There are really a few people who have gone to sea these days!"
"Oh, where are they going?" He Zhi also came to his senses when he heard this, and hurriedly asked.
"In the past two days, there have been three people who have gone to sea. Two of them are merchants who go to sea to do business. They were going to cross the East China Sea to the Far East to do business in the land of Taimeijia. And then there's another one that's interesting. This is a son-in-law, saying that he is going to the East China Sea to seek immortality. However, the place he was going to was very dangerous, and after two days of searching, no boat owner was willing to take him there. The old boatman apparently took the boy's words as a joke.
What kind of search for immortals, such characters are also endless in the Great Zhou Dynasty. But there are few people who can really find immortals and visit the Tao, but everyone has never heard of them.
"Oh?" He Zhihe heard the old boatman say this, but he was stunned, and then he couldn't help but be happy.
This boy is really interesting, it doesn't sound like a character from a real cultivator's family. Generally, if you are a person from a family of cultivators and want to worship a place like the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, who is not cautious, low-key and low-key.
For example, if he didn't even know where to open the gate of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, he had already shouted, and He Zhi really hadn't even heard of it.
But that's fine, if this person is really extremely low-key, secretly looking for those boatmen to inquire about the path to the sea, maybe He Zhi hasn't found out about this person so easily!
"Uncle, this boy is a wonderful person, I am interested in meeting him. Do you know where he lives?"
"Hehe, do you need to say this? More than half of us here know that he lives at the Penglai Inn over there. The old boatman smiled and stretched out his hand to explain the location of the Penglai Inn to He Zhi.
"Good. He Zhi nodded, then said goodbye to the old boatman and headed for the Penglai Inn.
When He Zhi came to the Penglai Inn, the son and brother he was looking for this time were not there at this time.
However, He Zhi was not in a hurry, so he found a place in the inn and waited. It was noon that day. The weather outside is hot, and most of the guests who went out in the morning in the inn have come back for dinner.
He Zhi waited in the inn for a long time, and sure enough, he saw a young man who looked like he was twenty years old and walked back with a gloomy face.
"Shop, shop!" As soon as he entered the door, the boy found a shady position, sat down, and shouted at the top of his voice.
"Hey, it's coming!" A shopkeeper immediately ran over with a smile on his face, took a sweat towel and carefully wiped the table in front of his son's brother twice, and then poured him a bowl of herbal tea.
"Master Han, don't worry. In our Qiyang City, there are not a hundred but eighty boats. With Han Gongzi's financial resources, you will definitely be able to find a boat owner who is not afraid of wind and waves to take you to sea. The shopkeeper said to the boy while making tea.
"Hmph! What a bunch of cowards! They don't go out to ask, who am I, Han Xueyu! Even I'm not afraid, they're still afraid! What kind of sinister and dangerous thing to tell me! I'm dangerous, you're big! Don't you know, the most important thing in seeking immortal fate is sincerity? It's really infuriating! In this world, there are really things that can't be done with silver tickets! I, Han Xueyu, can be regarded as knowledgeable today!" Han Gongzi shouted in annoyance, and when he said that he was angry, he also took out a silver ticket with a lot of denomination and put it on the table to make a bang.
The shopkeeper on the side looked at the silver ticket, and his eyes seemed to be about to shine.
Han Gongzi slapped the table a few times, and suddenly became depressed.
"Alas! What a person who is in a hurry to die! Don't you know which boatman has the guts? This fairy fate will not wait for anyone, if you can't go to sea in the past two days! Then you still ask for a fart fairy fate? Alas!" Han Gongzi said, but sighed again.
Then he turned his eyes and saw the shopkeeper staring at the silver ticket and swallowing saliva, and immediately spat him again: "Okay! Don't stare at grandpa's silver ticket and drool! Why don't you go and get some food for the shop!" Alas! How good is this immortal cultivator, you will be able to eat and drink dew in the future, how can you still eat?" After Han Gongzi finished speaking, he put away the silver ticket on the table, and took out a silver ticket with a slightly smaller denomination, but it was also a huge amount of money for a meal, and threw it to the shopkeeper without looking at it.
"Hey, I'm going to find something to eat for Han Gongzi! Han Gongzi, sit down for a while, sit down for a while!" The shopkeeper almost pounced on the silver ticket and grabbed it, and then ran away happily.
He Zhi watched Han Gongzi sitting at the table and still sighed, which was also interesting. However, He Zhi was not in a hurry to go up to find that Han Gongzi at this time.
His gaze had already fallen on the two people sitting next to him.
Both of them were dressed in the clothes of merchants, and they looked honest, and on the surface, they seemed to be just passing merchants. However, what kind of cultivation is He Zhi himself? Every word and word that these two people say while sitting at the table can't escape He Zhi's ears!
He Zhike had already heard it clearly, these two people were sitting here, waiting for this second son of Han!
This Han Gongzi has been in Qiyang for three days, and he has been spending a lot of money. As the so-called wealth moves people's hearts, his spending method naturally falls in the eyes of those who have a heart.
Although the security near Qiyang City is not bad, there are also some underworld gangs. Especially this Han Gongzi doesn't just look like a gentleman, but his own martial arts cultivation is not very good.
When Han Gongzi went out to find the boat family two days ago, these underworld gangs had already sent people to test him. In the Great Zhou Dynasty, where martial arts were extremely strong, a child from a wealthy family like Han Gongzi naturally would not know anything about martial arts, and he would know more or less a trick and a half. However, his cultivation is really not very good, and he still doesn't even have an innate realm. It can only be said that it is the kung fu of a three-legged cat with a few tricks.
has only such ability, and then shows his wealth everywhere, this second son of Han is naturally a fat sheep who can't be fattened anymore in the eyes of the underworld gangs.
Today's two "merchants" are here to make the final confirmation. They have already decided that they will do something to Han Ergongzi tonight.
Listening to the discussion of the two people behind him, He Zhi was not in a hurry to find that Han Gongzi at this time. If He Zhi went up to Han Gongzi so rashly, I am afraid that the other party would not know what his attitude was towards him.
Judging from the current performance of this Han Gongzi, it is impossible to say that He Zhi will be regarded as an idler who cheats and cheats, and it is impossible to say if He Zhi touches his nose. Since someone is going to make a move on this second son of Han tonight, He Zhi doesn't mind waiting a few more hours.
Anyway, judging from what Huangfu Tianchi said, there should be a few days before the Ten Thousand Swords Sect opens the mountain gate, and He Zhi doesn't have to be in a hurry.
The two "merchants" sitting at the table next to He Zhi obviously didn't know that their conversations had all been heard clearly by the people around them. After staring at Han Gongzi and discussing for a while, the two paid the bill and left satisfied.
And the shopkeeper over there quickly served Han Gongzi a table of good wine and food, and then he happily took Han Gongzi's reward again and ran away.
He Zhi originally planned to stay in this small shop silently first, and wait for the underworld forces behind those "merchants" to make a move against Han Gongzi in the evening, and then come forward to form a good relationship with this Han Gongzi, and then ask him about going to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
However, He Zhi didn't expect that when he asked the store for a room, the store said apologetically to He Zhi: "This guest is really embarrassed." The small shop has been contracted by Han Gongzi over there, and there is really no place for you to live. If you really want to stay in the hotel, I can recommend a few good places to the guest officer. It is guaranteed to be a good inn with good quality and low price. ”
"Uh......" He Zhi looked at the shopkeeper's apologetic fat face, and was speechless for a while.
He really didn't expect that this Han Gongzi would be a tyrant to such an extent. It's just a matter of extravagant eating for him, and when he stays in the hotel, he will actually take down the entire inn!
"Hey, brother over there!" At this time, Han Gongzi also seemed to notice the conversation between He Zhi and the shopkeeper, he turned his head and raised his wine glass to He Zhi with a slightly drunken smile, "Come, I invite you to drink!"
He Zhi glanced at Han Gongzi, and was a little suspicious for a while, whether this Han Gongzi was pretending to be stupid with himself, and had actually recognized his identity.
However, He Zhi soon found out that he really misjudged this Han Gongzi. Because just when He Zhi was still trying to take a closer look, Han Gongzi had already raised his head and drank a few glasses of wine again, and then fell drunk on the table.
"Guest officer, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry! Han Gongzi is like that. The innkeeper still said to He Zhi with an apologetic face, "He actually doesn't drink much, but he likes to drink." Every time you can't drink a few drinks, it will become like this. Don't mind, officer. ”
"Hmm. He Zhi nodded speechlessly again, and then saw the shopkeeper wave his hand. The two shopkeepers in the back hurriedly ran up, helped Han Gongzi up, and prepared to take him back to the room.
However, just when the three of them walked to He Zhi's side, Han Gongzi burped, spit out a mouthful of wine, and then opened his eyes.
"Hiccup! Hey, brother, are you still there?" At this time, Han Gongzi's eyes just fell on He Zhi, and he immediately smiled drunkenly and pushed the two shopkeepers who were supporting him, walked up to He Zhi and said drunkly, "Hehe, I don't know why, although this son has never seen you, he thinks you are a very kind person." Belch...... Do you want to stay in the hotel? shopkeeper, arrange an upper room for him...... Hiccup!"
After saying the last sentence, Han Gongzi hiccuped again, and then he was really drunk and fell on the fat shopkeeper in front of him.
The two shopkeepers hurriedly helped Han Gongzi up again and escorted him all the way to the room to rest.
And after the shopkeeper took care of his body, he turned his head and smiled at He Zhi: "This guest officer, you are lucky." Han Gongzi is willing to ask you to stay, I don't know what you mean, guest officer?"
"Hehe, since someone is willing to invite me to live in the hotel, then why am I unwilling?" He Zhi smiled at the shopkeeper and stretched out his hand to him.
To be honest, that Han Gongzi's performance did make He Zhi a little suspicious. However, from that Han Gongzi's body, He Zhi really didn't notice anything peculiar.
You must know that although He Zhi's current realm is not high, with his specialty of "being clear and nuanced", He Zhi has a unique point in observation! Normally, even if the Yuanying Monk deliberately conceals his cultivation in front of He Zhi, He Zhi will see some clues.
For example, Hu Yimeng, the general secretary of the Tianhe County Associate Division, every time he saw He Zhi, he would pretend to be an ordinary golden pill. But He Zhi could feel that his Jindan was different from ordinary Jindan monks, and there was an aura of vigorous growth.
In other words, unless this Han Gongzi is really a stronger monk than the Yuan Infant level, otherwise, he is really just an ordinary rich son.
All in all, in He Zhi's opinion, this Han Gongzi is indeed an interesting character. He Zhi will definitely agree to the other party's invitation.
After all, if this Han Gongzi was a monk who exceeded the Yuanying level, then the other party was afraid that he could crush He Zhi to death with one finger. There was no point in He Zhi rejecting his offer.
If the other party is really just an ordinary rich man, then it will be even more interesting. 10
