Chapter 57: Sword Immortal of the East China Sea (2)
Quanzhou City is not big, but it is more exquisite than Fuzhou City, although Fuzhou City is also an important trade town in the southeast sea, but after all, the water and land are unimpeded, boats and horses can come and go, so there are also many ordinary people living in the city. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info and Quanzhou City is just the opposite, Quanzhou is probably a businessman's house, there are not many ordinary people living in the city, so the decoration of the house is more exquisite than Fuzhou.
And the inn in Quanzhou City is even more magnificently decorated, even compared with the first-class inn in Tokyo City, it should be difficult to distinguish from the other. Caravans returning from the South Seas usually anchored in Quanzhou, and Quanzhou naturally shared some of the timber and iron ore brought by the big ships. After all, the small merchants and hawkers who take the boat as their home or the smugglers who anchor and rest will not choose to stay in the city, and they will at most find a cheap and affordable inn outside the city, and then spend less than 10% of the accommodation fee of the inn in the city, and they can live for a long time.
Therefore, the city inn in Quanzhou City has the capital to be able to compete with the Tokyo City Inn, and the inn corresponds, whether it is a hotel, a restaurant or a Qinglou Chu Pavilion, every place can make people spend a lot of money, Quanzhou can be said to be a big gold hole.
In such a Quanzhou, it is impossible for ordinary people in the rivers and lakes to live in it.
But the Donghai faction is different, because the "Windward Inn" where they stay, the biggest proprietor behind it is the Donghai faction itself. Therefore, in this late winter when the ice and snow are difficult to melt, the Donghai faction directly charters the entire inn, and it will not cause much loss to the Windward Inn.
If Jiangning is the base camp of the Chu family and the Sikong lonely family, Luoyang is the base camp of the beggar gang, Yingtian is the base camp of the Shenmen, and Xiangzhou is the base camp of the Jiangnan League, then the base camp of the East China Sea faction is Quanzhou.
Thirty years ago, the Donghai faction was just a sect with an inconspicuous reputation, and to say that it was not reputable certainly meant that it was in the martial arts of the Central Plains, and in the southeast of the Great Song Dynasty, the Donghai faction could be said to be slightly famous.
The Donghai faction is different from the Central Plains sect, and its gang leader inheritance is the family's general blood-only theory, but the Donghai faction is similar to the Central Plains sect, and its head is selected from the outstanding disciples in the sect. The reason why the two systems can coexist is precisely because there is no "master and apprentice" in the East China Sea faction, only "father and son". Each head is not necessarily related to the previous head, but must be the righteous son of someone in the door.
The reason why the East China Sea Sect implements such a system is that the disciples of the East China Sea Sect are all orphans, most of them are pirates, and of course, there are also babies with good roots and bones purchased from all over the Central Plains, but the former is well known among the East China Sea Sect, and the latter method of cultivating disciples is only known to the sect master and his henchmen.
However, no matter what kind of background they came from, in the Donghai faction, except for the people of the sect, they were all raised as orphans. It is precisely for this reason that the biggest difference between the Donghai School and many sects in the Central Plains is that the disciples of the Donghai School attach great importance to the word "family affection".
Li Yunlan, who is now known as the East China Sea Sword Immortal by the people of the rivers and lakes, is Li Yan's father-in-law.
In addition to Li Yan, Li Yunlan still has seventeen righteous sons and six righteous daughters, but none of them are recognized by him.
"Why hasn't Li Yan come back yet?"
No one would think that this sick old man was Li Yunlan, the East China Sea Sword Immortal, but that distorted right hand could not make the people of the rivers and lakes think of the identity of any other master of the rivers and lakes. The right hand that was broken by Yang Feiqiu, if it was placed on someone else, it would be a shame, but now that it is placed on Li Yunlan, it has become a glory that many people can't ask for.
This old man lying on the sickbed, looking dying, even if he is seen by the most ruthless person, maybe he will have a trace of pity.
"Dad, seventeenth brother, he ......"
As the chief disciple of the thirteen generations of disciples of the Donghai Sect, Li Ping, who ranked thirty-third in the Who's Friends, was pushed out by everyone, this senior brother who was over forty years old, was at the moment, like a child.
"Say ......"
Li Yunlan said weakly, but whether it was the tone or the volume, it would not make people feel the slightest pressure.
"Uncle Shi, the doctors are hereβ"
The cry of joy outside the house is Li Ni, who was born only one day earlier than Li Yan and started a month earlier, if only nine female disciples of the Donghai faction are counted, then Li Ni can be said to be everyone's "little junior sister", although Li Ni is not Li Yunlan's disciple, but if it is counted among the Donghai faction, Li Ni is indeed the latest and youngest among the female disciples.
This sound like a silver bell swaying made everyone in this upper room breathe a sigh of relief except for Li Yunlan.
Li Yunlan will only stop the affairs in his hand immediately when the doctors see him, after all, compared to dealing with these affairs, Li Yunlan's life is more precious in Li Yunlan's own opinion.
After everyone withdrew, Li Ping said to Li Ni: "Little junior sister, you are really our savior. β
Li Ni's cheeks flushed, as if she couldn't stand the grateful glances that so many people cast at her, she seemed to be a little unbearable, and lowered her head slightly and said, "So, why hasn't he come back yet?"
Li Ping and the brothers looked at each other, and laughed together: "The little junior sister is also moved." β
"What spring heart moves, you ...... Don't talk nonsense. β
Li Ni's head was pressed even lower by her, and her cheeks were as red as two big lanterns.
"Yes, yes, we are all talking nonsense, the little junior sister has not moved, and between the little junior sister and the little junior brother, there is no such relationship as we said. β
I don't know who made a joke, Li Ni heard it, stomped his feet, turned his head, and fled the corridor, and everyone laughed.
"What's the noise? The patient needs to rest!"
The voices of the doctors in the house came, but everyone outside the house changed their faces.
Originally, this time he returned to the Central Plains, Li Yunlan's purpose was not to seek medical advice, although Li Yunlan is now like a terminally ill old man, but the second position in the Who's Who is still real, once this sword immortal mentions the three-foot Qingfeng, it is like a different person, for this, all the disciples of the East China Sea Sect can be said to be convinced.
The doctor's shouting order made Li Ping's people feel shocked, and they all had some bad premonitions.
At this moment, a disciple of the East China Sea Sect ran over in small steps, but when he saw the gesture of silence from everyone, he immediately whispered in Li Ping's ear, and Li Ping almost jumped up like a cat whose tail had been guessed. (To be continued.) )
