Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Caravan of the Northern Wilderness
In the early morning, the red sun is rising, and the fog in the bamboo forest is slowly dispelled by the warm sunlight.
When Liu Mang was planning inside the house and how to use the resources of the Liu Mansion to develop his own power, there were some subtle sounds outside, and he swept his mind and saw that his sister was busy in the simple kitchen, seemingly preparing breakfast.
She had a sweet smile on her face and was in a good mood. Wash the pot and wash the rice, then put the pot on the stove, add a few pieces of firewood, when she took the flint and prepared to light the fire, suddenly remembered something, immediately stood up, took a deep breath, put her right hand on her chest, while chanting the mantra, while pinching out a few fingerprints, the next moment, a fireball the size of a ping-pong ball was suspended in front of her, after seeing this fireball, Liu Xuan's eyes bent, a happy look, the fireball entered the stove under her control, and the firewood inside was lit at once.
Seeing this scene, Liu Mang was taken aback, this girl of her own had only broken through to the first layer of condensation, and she was able to successfully perform the fireball technique?
Breakfast was made quickly, two bowls of white porridge and a plate of pickles, very light.
At this time, in a hall of Fengqi Garden, the seventeenth aunt Ouyang Wan was also preparing to have breakfast.
Her breakfast is very rich, not only candied fruit, osmanthus cake and other delicate snacks, but also blood swallow silver silk porridge, osmanthus lotus seed porridge, honey milk, and so on more than ten kinds of healthy porridge.
After the porridge, there is a small can of fist-sized stewed soup, black chicken and ginseng soup, Ganoderma lucidum fish maw stew, black tiger palm stewed soup, raw fish stewed mutton soup, etc., which are also more than a dozen kinds of soups that replenish vitality and nourish internal organs.
To prepare such a table for breakfast, the cooks and servants in the kitchen of Fengqiyuan had to get up from the third watch and work until dawn.
At this time, Ouyang Wan sat in front of the table, rinsed her mouth with the tea soup that the maid handed over to Snow Lotus, and then enjoyed breakfast slowly, opposite her sat a man and a woman, the man was a middle-aged man in his forties, this person was tall, good-looking, with a look of Qi on his face.
The woman was about 30 years old, dressed in plain clothes, and her eyes were sad.
"Sister, did we die in vain like this? Liu Dabiao spoiled you so much, don't you have anything to do?" the middle-aged man asked in a deep voice.
Ouyang Wan wiped the corners of her mouth with the delicate handkerchief handed over by the maid beside her, and sighed helplessly, "Brother, Tian'er's affairs were caught right by that kid, I have no other way at all, and I asked the deacon who taught Yin'er in the mansion to inquire, that kid is at least a monk above the eighth level of condensation, his cultivation is advanced and he is also a grandson of a long house, it is not easy to deal with him, if he has not committed a great sin, the Liu family will not deal with him." ”
"Alas~ It's all because I neglected to discipline Tian'er, so he was bold and reckless, and ended up like this. The middle-aged man shook his head bitterly.
"Brother, you don't have to be discouraged, although we can't deal with that kid for the time being, but that little slut is not necessarily, she is going to hold a ceremony this year, and when the time comes, I will marry her, and that little slut is the meat on the chopping board, let us slaughter." A cold light flashed in Ouyang Wan's eyes.
"Sister, isn't Po'er cultivating in the Hehuan Sect, just let Po'er get that slut into the Hehuan Sect and practice into a furnace!" the young woman in plain clothes said in a dark voice, with a chill in her tone.
"Good idea, I'll write to my son and ask him to come back. Ouyang Wan's eyes lit up and nodded.
On the other side, Liu Mang finished breakfast and was about to ask about Liu Xuan's spells, when an old man in a green shirt came to the bamboo building, "Young man Mang, the second master invites you to go to the study room of the main courtyard." ”
Hearing that his cheap father summoned him, Liu Mang was already prepared in his heart.
Under the leadership of the old man in green shirts, Liu Mang soon came to the door of a house.
"Young Master Mang, it's here, please go in. ”
The old man in the green shirt stopped and said to Liu Mang.
Liu Mang nodded, calmed down, pulled the clothes on his chest with both hands, and walked into the house.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw a man in a golden crown and brocade robe, sitting upright in front of the bookcase and writing documents one by one, he didn't look up, but there was a huge divine sense directly enveloping Liu Mang's body, "Five layers of condensation, it seems that your method of concealing cultivation is very powerful, even I can't see through your true cultivation, how old are you this year?"
"Twenty-three. ”
"Twenty-three, it's not small, since you return to the Liu family, you should also assume the responsibility of being a descendant of the Liu family, although I can't see through your cultivation, but judging from the pit you left at the city gate, you should have the strength of the foundation building period, our Changfang has another caravan in the Northern Wilderness, this caravan is very important to our Changfang, it was your Jiugu who was originally responsible for escorting the caravan, but recently her cultivation seems to be showing signs of a breakthrough and needs to be retreated, I want you to take her place." ”
Although Liu Dabiao seemed to be discussing with Liu Min, his tone was unquestionable.
"The second thing is to take out the tortoise shell you got from Liu Xiuyuan, this defensive spirit treasure is very important to the family, you can rest assured that it is only temporarily requisitioned, and after a while, it will be returned to you. ”
"No problem. Liu Mang took out the tortoise shell very simply and put it on the bookcase.
"The third thing, you are an adult, and you can have your own independent yard according to the rules, I have already arranged it for you, just in the Cangming Garden on the west peak, you can find time to move over. ”
"Got it, but I'll take my sister too. ”
"Whatever you want, you can go. ”
Until Liu Mang left, Liu Dabiao didn't raise his head, at this time, at the back of the study, a cold woman slowly walked out of it, "With his qualifications, he actually has the strength of the foundation building period in just five years, even if the Hengyue faction used to be the immortal sect that unified the Zhao Kingdom, there is no way for him to have such an achievement, aren't you curious?"
"Of course I'm curious, but do you think he will tell the truth if I ask? Everyone has their own secrets, even you and I are no exception, as long as he has the blood of the Liu family in his body and does not do anything that harms the Liu family, then the Liu family will only be his backing!"
As soon as Liu Mang came out of Liu Dabiao's study, Liu Baishu hurriedly walked out from the side, "How is it, did your father embarrass you?"
"Except for asking me to hand over the tortoise shell, there is nothing to do, by the way, he also asked me to replace Jiugu and protect the family's caravan in the Northern Wilderness. ”
"What, this is too dangerous, did you agree?" Liu Baishu was taken aback, "No, I have to go in and talk to your father, with your little strength, if you go to the Northern Wilderness, you are not a sheep in the mouth of a tiger?"
"Fourth uncle, don't go, don't you know him yet, if you have time, you might as well tell me about the caravan and the Northern Wilderness, so that I can prepare." Liu Mang pulled Liu Baishu and said.
"Well, you have a point, let me tell you about our caravan first, this caravan was only established three years ago, not only our Liu family, but also the Liu family and the Huo family······
