Chapter 41: The Caravan

The two of them went on the road, all the way to the west, Ouyang Xuan said as he walked: "Although the Central Plains Righteous Path has suffered a heavy loss this time, but fortunately, the foundation is deep, as long as it can survive these few years, it will slowly recover its vitality, but it's a pity that the skill of the monk is empty, alas, it is not a few years to make up for it." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Lin Batu said: "Fortunately, the monk has a peaceful mentality, although he has lost his martial arts, but at least he is in the Zen Heart Temple, people's hearts are not chaotic, the most regrettable thing is Dugu Hong, he is fighting with the Demon Sect in this life, seeing that the strength of the Heavenly Sword Gate is thriving, and the Martial Alliance is like the sky, it is about to crush the Demon Sect, but it fell into the Demon Sect's plan to lure the enemy, a generation of Sword Saints, and there is no return." ”

"Wumeng is actually not unified in people's hearts, although the friendship between empty questions and Qingxu is good, but the two of them are not good at practice, Shennong is located in a remote area, the Ziying faction has always been weak since Jingchen's death, Baoxiang Temple is unphased and small-minded, and the beggar gang Gongye is one, but it is a role, but the beggar gang is too large, the quality of the personnel is uneven, he is too late to rectify the help, how can he have time to deal with the affairs of the Wumeng. The one who really integrated the forces of the Wumeng was actually Duguhong alone, and now that this person is dead, alas, the Wumeng may have a lot of trouble from now on. ”

"Except for the Martial Alliance, there are no martial arts masters in this world?" Lin Batu is very strange, there seem to be many masters of the ten major factions in this world, and some people have only heard of the seven uniques, or they have existed twenty years ago, it seems that in the past twenty years, there have not been any masters of non-major factions on the rivers and lakes.

"Hehe, it's so easy to get out of casual cultivation, don't look at our seven unique scenery, in fact, we can't be regarded as casual cultivation, we all have our own inheritance, and our family background can be regarded as a rich party, poor and rich, not to say. Ouyang Xuan said: "How many people have a natural quality and wisdom that cannot be inherited, and how many people have an inheritance but do not have the corresponding financial resources to practice. Just look at the Wuxiang of the Baoxiang Temple, how high the quality is, at the beginning of the Zen Heart Temple in this big faction, almost buried. Even if you are one in a million, you have passed these levels, you are alone, there are many enemies, and it is too late to deal with it, I am afraid that you will not be able to sleep well every day, so how can you talk about cultivation. ”

"The matter is more urgent, the two of us still go our separate ways, although Dugu Hong of Tianjian Mountain Villa is dead, but Tianjian Mountain is still the territory of the Wumeng after all, and there is not much danger, there is no need for me to wait for the two of them to go together, I have flying white cranes, go to Tianfeng to get Wujin grass, even if there are many masters of the hero gate, forgive them and they can't chase me to the sky, you are slow, go to Tianjian Mountain to get the ice and fire lotus, when the time comes, we will meet in the Zen Heart Temple." At a junction, Ouyang Xuan said: "Now is an extraordinary time, be careful not to attract the attention of others, I am one step ahead." ”

"Okay, Senior Ouyang has a good journey. Lin Batu said.

"Hehe, go all the way to you, you can't say anything auspicious. Ouyang Xuan heard the full malice, and scolded with a smile, "Don't leave it at that." ”

"Don't pass."

After leaving Ouyang Xuan and walking for another trip, Lin Batu suddenly discovered an important problem, that is, he didn't know the way.

"Hell, if you just thought about this in the town, you can still buy a map or something, and now you're in this kind of place where you can't find a village or a store, what's the matter, ask for directions, even if you meet someone, you may not know how to get to such a far place. ”

Alas, poor Lin Batu walked around helplessly for a long time, pedestrians met a few, sure enough, they didn't know how to go so far, when they were in a hurry, there was a bell in the distance, a team of merchants with a convoy was coming this way, hey, businessmen went north and south, walked a lot, to ask maybe there will be a harvest.

Lin Batu had just walked not far in front of the caravan, and he saw that the people in the caravan immediately became nervous, picked up their swords one by one, and faced Lin Batu. The vigilance is quite strong, this caravan still looks good, "Hey hey, I'm not a robber, have you ever seen a robber come out to rob alone?" Lin Batu raised his hands high, indicating that I am a good person.

The guards in the caravan felt that it made sense, and slowly put away their swords, and suddenly a voice came from the innermost carriage: "Yes, a lone thief, a thief who dares to come out to commit a crime alone in the rivers and lakes, his martial arts are high." "Boom, boom, the caravan guards raised their weapons again.

Poof, "Who, who's talking, poking at the point" Lin Batu almost spurted out a mouthful of blood, and hurriedly patted the clothes on his body: "Look at me, Si Swenwen's appearance, and I don't have a sword or sword in my hand, how can there be a robber, I am definitely not a robber." The guards felt justified again, and put away their swords.

Lin Batu just wiped a handful of sweat and was about to step forward to greet him and ask questions, when the voice came out again: "Lao Li looks so honest, he is not a pervert, he has been in the Jade Academy many times, it seems that Sven is not a scum, otherwise how did the word Sven scum come from." ”

You, it's on purpose, fortunately, the guards didn't move this time, a middle-aged man came out of the caravan, hugged his fists and said to Lin Batu: "Don't mind this friend, that's our eldest lady, this temper is a little weird, just ignore it." ”

"It's easy to say, in Xia Lintu, I don't know what to call the uncle. Lin Batu ate a word casually.

"Ahem, under Li Chenggang, that, everyone calls me Lao Li. Li Chenggang, a middle-aged man, said

It seems that this is Lao Li, who specializes in visiting the Jade Courtyard, and he looks really honest. Lin Batu thought, "Well, that, I'm a scholar, to scholars, as the saying goes, read thousands of books, travel thousands of miles, this time I asked the teacher of the academy for leave, came out to enjoy the great landscape of the motherland, I heard that Tianjian Mountain is very good, I plan to go over to see, but when I walked here, I remembered that I didn't know the road, and I asked many people but no one knew, seeing your caravan, think about your businessmen, well-informed, so come and inquire." ”

The hateful voice came out again, Lin Batu just wanted to call for help, but this time he said: "Tianjian Mountain, we are going to Tianjian Mountain this time, do you want to go with us?" Mmmm, forget it, see that you and Lao Li have a good chat, maybe you are also a pervert, or don't want it, girl, I have a beautiful moon, if you have a thief's heart, I will be in danger." ”

Lin Batu, a pervert or something, completely ignored it, but the three words "going to Tianjian Mountain" were heard clearly, since you are going to Tianjian Mountain, then I just followed with a dead face, the little girl is the most annoying, it's better not to talk to her. continues to be close to Lao Li, Li Chenggang can be regarded as a character who is used to the rivers and lakes, where can I not see Lin Batu's intentions, but it seems that this person is really not like a bad guy, for the sake of him who was also slandered as a pervert by the eldest lady, he took him in, nodded to the guards, and put Lin Batu in the middle of the caravan.

With the caravan walking, although the problem of the road is solved, but it is indeed a bit boring to go on the road alone, "this passerby, no one says that talking is really boring" Lin Batu thought about finding something to do for recreation, stretched out his hand, pulled out the Yu Xiao that Ran Qiongmei used to control Long Zhengang from behind, and blew it with a whimper, Lin Batu's rhythm had to be passed on to Huang Yaoshi, although it was not to blow the blue sea tide, but there was a lot of well-known music in his head, and it was very good.

It is said that talented men are the most attractive, and it is true, since Lin Batu showed that she was very good, the little girl who couldn't chat suddenly changed her attitude, uh, when I came out, I found that this "girl with a beautiful appearance" looked like she was only eleven or twelve years old, and she had a thief heart for this kind of little girl? Who would be such a beast.

After getting acquainted with it, I found that this little girl is still very cute, of course, the same thing, the twenty-year-old girl does, that is ignorant, pretentious, teenage girl, just think she is lively and naughty, so this little girl and Lin Batu quickly got acquainted, all day long is pestering Lin Batu to teach her to blow Xiao, Lin Batu is really boring, and left the sect for so long, a little nostalgic for the days of the disciple, so I casually taught the children a few hands, well, the children are still quite talented, teach a day or two, and blow decently, just like this, the days of teaching and learning pass very quickly。 After getting acquainted with it, Lin Batu also understood this caravan.

It turned out that this caravan had a name that was very attached to the temperament of the merchants, called the Jujin Chamber of Commerce. The boss, that is, the little girl's father, is called Qian Guangjin, and his nickname is Jin Abacus, this name, this nickname, he is a successful businessman when he hears it, and the little girl's big name is not changed for money. , which irresponsible father will give his daughter this name, when the little girl grows up a little, don't call this name when she dies, and later under the negotiation of the mother, the milk name was used instead of the tuba, so now it is called Qian Beibei. In fact, the trumpet is called Beibei, and the little girl dislikes the weak name again, so she changed it to a homonym.

Speaking of this Jujin Chamber of Commerce, it is really very powerful, since the shopkeeper Qian Guangjin, started from scratch 20 years ago, and started to build the Chamber of Commerce, but in ten years, almost all the firms in the north and south of the river have business dealings with this Chamber of Commerce, and 36 caravans are all over the country, but no one knows where the total number Jujin is. Moreover, the goods of the Jujin Chamber of Commerce have never been successfully robbed by anyone in the past 20 years, so why should it be said that they have been successful? Because robbery, there are still people who want to rob them, but often not long after, the robbers will bring the goods to the door of the local business with them.

The most famous one, is a batch of jade of the Jujin Chamber of Commerce, was robbed by the Hengjiang Thirteen Bees, this Hengjiang Thirteen Bees is a well-known thief in the south of the Yangtze River, at that time, known as the Tiantai faction of the first faction under Taiyi, was robbed of a batch of goods, surrounded and suppressed them, but after several exchanges, the Hengjiang Thirteen Bees only returned the goods, and the Tiantai faction will no longer pursue it, so it is conceivable that the strength of the Thirteen Bees, but this time, the Thirteen Bees, together with the goods, were tied to the door of the Huangshan Business of the Jujin Chamber of Commerce. In the end, the thirteen bees turned out to be the thirteen guards of the Jujin Chamber of Commerce. Since then, no one in the Jiangnan area dared to touch the goods of the Jujin.

And in the north, after the same must have robbed the goods, because it was a batch of silver taels, the weight was too heavy, the chamber of commerce got someone's flying letter, asking them to go to a certain place to pick up the goods, the chamber of commerce people rushed to a day's road, to that place, but saw the whole box of silver piled together, with muddy water on it to draw a symbol, the nearby Jianghu gang did not move a penny, helping to guard.

Later, a legend came out that behind the Jujin Chamber of Commerce was a certain Seven Uniques, and the boss Qian Guangjin married the other party's sister. Regarding this statement, Qian Beibei said that it was pure, and his mother didn't even know a dime of martial arts, but she was just an ordinary daughter from a small family. But his father's friends are all over the world, if there are any martial arts masters, it is not surprising, and he is a master himself, the little girl said that she has seen her father practice martial arts, and he can smash three tiles with one palm. Lin Batu touched his nose after listening, Ling Zun was really good kung fu.

Yo, I can't imagine that I can just ask for directions, and I can meet such a strange business house, but since this Jujin Chamber of Commerce is so awesome, if we can cooperate, it is not bad, take materials from the Jujin Chamber of Commerce, use the materials to make high-end weapons and clothing, and then sell them by the Jujin Chamber of Commerce, and if you have a good relationship, you can also use their thirty-six caravans that have traveled all over the country to collect news.

Lin Batu is not an ordinary martial artist, he knows the importance of news better than others, the beggar gang is all over the world, and Gongye can know most of the things that happen in the world, just this point, the beggar gang's clean clothes gang is invincible in the shopping mall, and has earned a lot of activity funds for the beggar gang. If he also has such a force, then in the future competition with the Demon Sect, he will be one step ahead.
