――Thanks to the two young people in East China and ererdfsfs friends for their tips.

Shi Xuan didn't expect this middle-aged woodcutter to be so unfrightened, his sleeve robe waved in his face, and then smiled and watched the middle-aged woodcutter wake up.

The middle-aged woodcutter first rolled his eyeballs under his eyelids slightly, then opened a slit slightly, and when he saw that the young man was still opposite, he quickly closed his eyes again and pretended to be unconscious.

"Hehe, if you don't wake up, Hugh Weishi will throw you to the wolf's den in front. The peaceful voice came into his ears, and the middle-aged woodcutter was smart, and hurriedly turned over and knelt down: "Hero, no, no, Daxian, spare the little one." The youngest one has an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child......"

Shi Xuan shook his head to stop his talking: "Shi is just asking for directions, why should you be so alarmed? As long as you tell Shi which market town in which state, which prefecture, which city, Shi will leave immediately." ”

The middle-aged woodcutter pulled out a very ugly smile: "Back to Daxian, below is Xinglong Town in Tiannan City, Jingjiang Prefecture, Yunzhou, although it is a town, but because it is close to the 100,000 mountains, there are many merchants who buy rare and exotic beasts, precious trees, exotic flowers and plants, and precious herbs, so it is extremely prosperous, no worse than ordinary big cities." ”

Shi Xuan nodded with satisfaction, if there are merchants who often come, then he can follow a certain caravan to Yangzhou. This time I returned to the land of Middle-earth, firstly, to sharpen my Dao heart in the red dust, and strive to be able to draw qi to perfection before going to the Beihai Sea, and secondly, to take a look at the cultivation status of a few disciples along the way, if they still look forward to the Immortal Dao, and they have worked hard and have a firm Dao heart, then take them back to Longguan and let them go to the sea area of the three islands.

Because of the inheritance of Xu Laodao, Shi Xuan didn't think about taking Xu Jinyi, Yan Jujian, and Ding Mingde under the Penglai faction, but with his status in the Penglai faction, it is not impossible to find a good island in the Sandao sea area and let them establish a small sect attached to the Penglai faction, after all, the Sandao sea area is far better than the land of Middle Earth in terms of resources and immortal cultivation atmosphere.

Of course, it all depends on their own wishes and the current situation, Shi Xuan just does it, if it doesn't work, he won't be entangled, and he won't spend more energy.

Since the purpose was already there, Shi Xuan decided to go to Xu's house in Yangzhou to find Xu Jinyi, then to Ganzhou Jianya to find Yan Jujian, then to the junction of Chuzhou and Mingzhou to find Ding Mingde, and finally to the small town around Luojing to find Chu Xuan'er, and then take those of them who are willing to go to the waters of the three islands to Luojing to return to Longguan. As for himself, he returned to Yangzhou, set sail to the sea, and crossed the storm to overseas countries.

Along the way, Shi Xuan did not use the escape method to hurry, but slowly walked in the red dust, and walked in a large circle, it would take about two years, and it should not be far from the consummation of qi by then.

Seeing that his answer satisfied Shi Xuan, the middle-aged woodcutter immediately let go of half of his worries, this young man looked dignified, not like some vicious person or vicious ghost.

Shi Xuan chuckled and said, "You answered well, Shi also has to pay you something." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, Daxian doesn't have to be polite. The middle-aged woodcutter said that he didn't dare, but his eyes were glowing hot.

Shi Xuan didn't answer, walked to the surrounding giant trees, tapped more than a dozen in a row, and then walked slowly towards the town without looking back.

The middle-aged woodcutter was dumbfounded: "I'm just talking, how did Daxian really leave." As soon as the words fell, a gust of wind blew, and the dozen or so giant trees suddenly creaked, and then fell to the ground with a bang, stirring up a large cloud of smoke and dust.

"This, this ......" The middle-aged woodcutter opened his eyes wide, and shouted in his heart that this was not Hercules and Demon, but he stammered and couldn't speak, and it took a long time before he muttered: "How can I resist moving so many giant trees home." ”

............

Xinglong Town.

As soon as Shi Xuan found the Yangzhou Guild Hall, he saw a long caravan parked outside the Guild Hall, there were more than 100 carriages alone, and there were hundreds of guards around, which seemed to be a very big businessman.

Generally this kind of large merchants with a large number of guards will do some business with people on a long journey, those small merchants who cannot afford to hire guards, groups of three or five or lonely travelers, can pay money and join the caravan, which is much safer than going on the road alone.

Shi Xuan followed the trail to find the steward in charge of the transaction, it was an obese middle-aged man with a big belly, in the hot weather of Yunzhou, his face was sweating, and he was holding a white hand towel in his hand and kept wiping.

"This steward, I don't know where this caravan is going? If it goes to Yangzhou or the states south of the Yangtze River, I don't know if I can take a certain journey with Shi. Shi Xuan saw that there were already a few men and women in front of him, and they had already paid the money and walked to the caravan's idle carriages.

The fat steward wiped his sweat and said, "It's to Yangzhou City." If you don't care about the rice, you will have 20 taels of silver per person, and if you take care of the rice, the food money will be 5 days and 1 knot. ”

Shi Xuan had already opened the valley, although he was still a little greedy sometimes, but that was only for food, and the ordinary food provided by this caravan would definitely not meet Shi Xuan's standards, so Shi Xuan said, "Don't worry about the rice." Shi has his own food. ”

"Well, I will receive ten taels of silver. "The fat steward doesn't care, and he can't get the food money, so another steward is in charge.

Shi Xuan put his hand into his arms, and then realized that he hadn't used silver for twenty years, and he still had it with him, and he was thinking about whether to use illusion to change an ingot, and suddenly remembered that there was still something in the storage bag, so he took out the night pearl and handed it to the fat steward: "Shi's silver money has just run out, it's better to sell this night pearl to the steward you, and exchange it for some silver." "As for the kind of method of turning stones into gold, Shi Xuan doesn't have it, that advanced method involving material transformation, you can't learn it without Yuan Shen.

The fat butler's cheeks twitched violently before he took the night pearl and said, "Although I don't have much knowledge in Huang Shusheng, there are many high-ranking people in our Golden Wind Trading House. I'm going to show them it, you can't tell me. After finishing speaking, he didn't leave immediately, but looked at Shi Xuan: "By the way, you have to show me your way, so as not to get into the caravan." ”

Shi Xuan still has a road guide, but this is not difficult for him, he slowly touched it in his arms, and then pulled out a piece of paper with a swish: "This is Shi's road guide." ”

A few feet behind the fat steward, a young couple was putting the package back on their backs, and the handsome young woman said to her husband: "Xianggong, you can put away the road, maybe you have to use it on the road." ”

The husband smiled and said, "Save, save." It won't fall. But when he raised his hand, it was empty, and he was suddenly startled: "Eh, where is Lu Yin? Then he looked around.

The fat steward picked up the road guide and looked at Shi Xuan carefully: "Well, a person from Xia'an Mansion, surnamed Shi Mingxuan." Eh, this portrait is too similar!" There are only a few brushstrokes on the ordinary road guide, and it is good to be able to recognize whether it is a man or a woman, and the general characteristics, but this portrait on the road guide is very similar to Shi Xuan, although it is also very simple, but it is lifelike, and it is everyone's handwriting at a glance.

Could it be that Xia'an Mansion invited a good painter, and the fat steward could only explain himself like this, and then returned the road to Shi Xuan: "You wait, I'll go find someone to identify this night pearl." ”

Shi Xuan calmly took the road guide, and then slowly put it into his arms, but he didn't say a word, making the fat steward wonder as he walked: "Ordinary people, if they hand over such a precious night pearl to a stranger for identification, how can they be so calm! Could it be that this son has a big background or great ability? Well, looking at his demeanor, he is extraordinary." The fat steward originally had in his heart the idea that if this night pearl was really precious, he would have to pretend to be stupid, use his power to bully others, and take the night pearl into his pocket, but now he is a little hesitant, he doesn't know how many stewards he has seen because he offended people who shouldn't be offended, and the bones are gone.

The beautiful young woman gently slapped her husband and said with a light smile: "Xianggong, stop playing, isn't this a guide?" and pointed to the corner of the paper exposed in her husband's arms.

The husband took it out suspiciously and saw that it was his own guide, and said to himself in confusion: "When did I put it in my arms?"

.........

"Huang Shusheng, you're going to make a fortune!!" a little old man with a sharp beak and a tall hat looked at the fat steward with envy and shock.

The fat steward was overjoyed, and asked again: "Really, this night pearl is really in charge of money?"

The little old man slapped his thigh: "What am I lying to you about! This is the product of the giant mussel in the storm sea, and you also know that the storm sea is perennially stormy, and how can a sea boat enter it! Only the giant clam that occasionally dies is washed out will get a pearl of this night. I'm afraid it's going to be worth a lot of money! Hehe, if you get it, you have to share it with me, otherwise don't blame me for talking nonsense. ”

The fat steward nodded in ecstasy, then turned around and got out of the carriage, and his heart kept echoing: I'm going to get rich, I'm going to be rich.

But as soon as he thought about it, the fat steward remembered that he didn't have a few hundred taels of gold to buy this pearl, and his greed rose under his chagrin, his business house was powerful, and it was the place where the drizzle downstairs was first, and how big could the young man be if he had a background? It was better to give him a few dozen taels of silver and forcibly buy it.

Decided, the fat steward only felt comfortable, and strode away to go to where he was before, but as he walked, the fat steward saw that the surrounding guards, grooms, and handymen all looked at him with funny eyes, and looked himself up and down, there was no problem, and when he looked around, all the cold hairs on his body suddenly stood up, and it turned out that he was still standing still after walking for so long!

The fat steward only had this thought in his heart, and he wanted to shout, but he couldn't even hear the voice, so panicked and scared that sweat was raining, and asked God to worship the Buddha and chanted: "Great compassion and great compassion Pudu Bodhisattva bless, great compassion and great compassion Pudu Bodhisattva bless." If the small one can go out, he will definitely kill the pig to reward the gods. ”

After chanting for a long time, it had no effect, and the fat steward recited all the immortals, Bodhisattvas, Buddhas, and immortals he knew, but he still spun around in place and almost collapsed. Suddenly, a thought emerged in my heart, if I wasn't greedy, I would encounter evil ghosts in my way.

As soon as this idea appeared, it couldn't be stopped, and the fat steward hesitated and then said with a heart: "The little Huang Shusheng should not be greedy, please let the big immortal bypass the small one, the little one must be a good person in the future, and every time he says he must do a good deed, well, today he says that a good deed is not to take the son's money!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the fat steward leaned forward and rushed forward, staggered a few steps and almost fell, but the fat steward was not angry but happy, and bowed to the void, hurriedly walked in front of Shi Xuan, returned the night pearl to Shi Xuan, and then said: "Yuna scholar, I made a wish in front of the Bodhisattva, and every time I say that I want to do a good deed." Today, seeing that you are destined, I will exempt you from your money, and go to that carriage. ”

Shi Xuan pretended to thank him and then got into the empty carriage. The fat steward was heartbroken in the face of the twenty taels of silver in the back, but he was not a fool, and he reacted after a while, staring directly at the carriage with awe, fear, and adoration.

............

A few months later. Jiangnan is the midsummer when the lotus leaves are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers are different red, with small bridges and flowing water, and the scenery is beautiful.

The convoy of Goldwind Trading Company was slowly walking on the official road, when suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves on the opposite side, and after a while, two white horses were surrounded by dozens of other horses, rushing towards the convoy of the trading house.

An old man in a sixtieth armor said tremblingly: "No, it can't be a robbery, right?" This is Du Yifu Du, the old master who returned from visiting relatives in Xinglong Town, and he likes to say something strange and confused, and he is sitting next to Shi Xuan at this time.

A small businessman next to him sneered: "Old master, I'm afraid you haven't seen anyone in the rivers and lakes." This Jinfeng Commercial Bank is a big commercial house under the drizzle building, and the two young heroes who came are the sons of Xu Tianqi, the deputy owner of the drizzle building, how could it be a robbery. They are first-class masters at a young age, and there are not many chivalrous women on the rivers and lakes who dream of spring for them at night, tsk, and the future is limitless. This is the goods brought by the Golden Wind Trading Company in a hurry, and I heard that it is to congratulate his family's aunt and grandmother on her birthday!" This is Chen Ke, a local businessman in Yangzhou, who likes to show off his knowledge and knowledge the most.
