From the mountain gate at the foot of Huashan Mountain, until Huayin County, there is a newly built rammed earth gravel road.

This road is like the throat and esophagus of the Huashan faction, and every day a large number of goods pass through this road and are swallowed by the Huashan faction.

Horse-drawn trucks loaded with grain, wine, iron ore, medicinal materials and other goods go to and from this main road.

Yuelai Inn is full of friends every day, the field is full, and it is unbeatable in the same industry, but other restaurants and taverns are still springing up, and there are always new taverns completed every month, which is really too many people in the rivers and lakes at the foot of Huashan.

'Fenjiuju' is such a tavern that has been open for about half a year, close to the gate of Huashan Mountain, with three floors, elegant decoration and booming business.

Dressed in white and luxurious, with a jade belt around his waist, Dongfang Bai, who was dressed like a noble son, stepped into the 'Fenjiuju'.

He came privately, without even informing Xiang Huanian, who had always acted as a liaison between him and Situ Xuan, he wanted to see the great changes in the Huashan faction from his own perspective.

Now Xiang Huanian is the proprietor of Yuelai Inn and a pivotal figure in the rivers and lakes. Not only can he speak in the Wuyue Sword Sect, but also on the Black Wood Cliff, because of the relationship between the right envoy of the light and the heavens, this person is also a guest.

Dongfang Bai clearly knew that at the beginning of this year, Xiang Huanian had been on the Black Wood Cliff for several months, and the five halls inside and ten outside the Divine Sect, fifteen elders, and the banner masters of the thirteen provinces in the world were invited by him one by one, and a large amount of silver was sprinkled down, and he had a good fate.

Otherwise, even if the Wuyue Sword Sect has risen extremely vigorously in recent years, how can it keep the various branches of the Yuelai Inn scattered all over the world?

As soon as Dongfang Bai entered the door, the shopkeeper greeted him, and after a little look, he knew that he was a child of a rich family or a family of rivers and lakes, and immediately became a little more respectful, and said with a smile: "This son, please come in, there is a private seat by the window on the second floor, if the son is alone, you can drink by the window." If you have other friends, there are two private rooms left in the shop, one large and one small. ”

These shopkeepers all take the Great Wall of Yu who 'flew up to Huashan to become a swordsman' as an example, so each junior has a pair of poisonous eyes and treats people like a spring breeze.

Dongfang Bai looked at the lobby drinkers, and then said, "Just the window on the second floor." ”

Xiao Er hurriedly shouted: "Okay, please on the second floor." ”

After Dongfang Bai sat down, he ordered some wine and food at random, and saw hundreds of people passing by outside the restaurant. He asked in surprise: "This road has been built, how can there still be these people, where are the big restaurants and inns built?"

Xiao Er arched his hand and replied with a smile: "If you go back to Gongzi, these are all mountain pickers hired by the Huashan faction. At this hour, it was about the time of the morning shift, and they went down the mountain to find food after their work. ”

Dongfang Bai became a little interested, and continued to ask: "This is just the morning shift? Is there still a night shift? How many mountain pickers does the Huashan faction hire?"

Xiao Er replied: "Back to Gongzi, on ordinary days, mountain pickers are divided into morning and evening shifts, and when the Huashan faction held a small meeting of Wuyue disciples last year, it also temporarily added a night shift. The mountain road is difficult to walk at night, so you will be given more money. A steward of the Exchange Hall once had a drink in our restaurant, and he mentioned that there seemed to be nearly a thousand mountain pickers in each class. ”

Dongfang Bai was taken aback, he calculated the disciples and servants of Heimu Cliff in his heart, and got the result in his heart, these mountain pickers of the Huashan Sect were enough to supply the daily needs of one or two thousand disciples. In other words, the Huashan faction has really developed well in recent years.

Another junior shouted here, and when he saw that the junior second here was serving the guests, he kept silent. Dongfang Bai threw out a dime of broken silver and rewarded it to Xiao Er. Xiao Er summoned a companion, whispered a few words and handed the silver to the other party, the man nodded, and said goodbye to Dongfang Bai.

Dongfang Bai took out a folding fan from his sleeve, the fan bone was like ivory, the fan handle hung a jade pendant, knocked on the palm and asked, "Why did you hand over the silver to the other party?"

Tsing Yi Xiao Hat, a little handsome Xiao Er smiled: "It is my duty to serve distinguished guests, but it is not good to delay the business of the restaurant, so I have to ask my companion to call a guy who takes turns to work for me." ”

A different color flashed in Dongfang Bai's eyes, smart, clever, responsible, and atmospheric, but he didn't expect that the shopkeepers at the foot of Huashan were a little unusual.

At this time, a middle-aged man who looked like a shopkeeper walked onto the platform in the middle of the lobby, and after shaking all sides, he said loudly: "All the heroes are invited, the small 'Fenjiuju' is the second shopkeeper, surnamed Li, if the heroes can shout the small 'Lao Li', it is the creation of the villain." The owner invited the original Yuelai Inn's 'Mr. Liu' to join the shop, and after a while, Mr. Liu took the stage, and the rules were the same as before, half an hour of Q&A time, and then commented on the news of the rivers and lakes. ”

Dongfang Bai was a little puzzled, and asked Xiao Er, who was standing aside, "What will you ask for half an hour's answers, and what is there to ask?"

The shopkeeper smiled slightly and explained: "Childe doesn't know, this is a characteristic at the foot of Huashan. After a while, as long as the money is pressed over others, you can ask casually one sentence at a time, or how to call it "". If Mr. Liu can't answer, ask the guest to get free of charge today. ”

Dongfang Bai was a little funny, and said that this ghost idea was thought up by Situ Xuan, this kind of thing with colorful heads can attract people in the rivers and lakes the most, and can also coax the atmosphere of the hotel, no wonder these restaurants are similar to Yuelai Tavern, and they have dug up the corner.

After a while, a gong sounded, and a half-grown old man with a slightly larger mouth, a chest-length beard, and a gray robe walked to the platform, and sat down on the chair that had been prepared on the stage.

Another gong sounded, and even Dongfang Bai, who was attending the meeting for the first time, knew that this was the time to ask questions.

A red-faced man from the rivers and lakes took the lead in getting up and said loudly: "Under the 'Xudu Ghost Sword' Gao Ran, I am willing to give twenty taels of silver to ask for a question." ”

Then he hugged his fist to the Quartet and said: "I only ask two things in the next place, I won't delay the time of my fellow travelers, and I hope everyone will sell this face." After the red-faced man finished speaking, the restaurant was quiet for a few breaths, and no one said yes, and no one disagreed.

Mr. Tiezui Liu nodded slightly, and then a gong sounded, indicating that the old man had agreed, and Xiao Er had already walked to the big man with a tray.

Dahan opened his mouth and asked: "Mr. Liu is a Jianghu, and he must have heard of some thin names below. Excuse me, sir, there are two kinds of martial arts today, I don't know how to choose, and I hope Mr. will teach me. These two martial arts are: ”

Mr. Tiezui Liu nodded slightly, interrupted Dahan's introduction, and asked, "What about the second question?"

Dahan was stunned for a moment, slightly unhappy, but still replied: "The second question is, after choosing martial arts, can there be an innate opportunity?"

Mr. Liu pinched his beard and said in a somewhat hoarse tone: "Your Excellency's 'Xudu Ghost Sword', a master of both good and evil in Huguang and Jianghu. The year before last, a dart team of the Lin clan of the Fuwei Dart Bureau was moved, and based on the martial arts displayed at that time, it was estimated that Your Excellency was probably the cultivation of the Great Zhou Tiancheng or the Great Zhou Meeting. ”

"What I inherited is the incomplete martial arts of the 'Ten Halls Ghost Gate' of the former Hedao Dao Sect, and now I can't pay attention to it in Huashan, and I also asked the old man, I must have taken a fancy to the "Zhuan **" and "Fierce Sword Technique" of Huashan Exchange Hall, yes or no?"

The big man was dumbfounded, with a look of admiration, and there was no need for him to answer, the other drinkers already knew that what Mr. Liu said was not bad.

I saw the old man continue: ""Zhuan **" is a fragment, and it is difficult to break through the innate with your talent. The internal chapter of "Fierce Sword Technique" is slightly worse, but it is also modest, and it will not delay the revision of other internal skills in the future. Ou Ye's clan forged a fierce sword a few days ago, and no one cared about it in the exchange hall, so you can buy it at a low price. This sword complements the "Fierce Sword Technique", which is enough to enhance the five-layer killing power. ”

"As for the innate opportunity", the old man Tiezui took a sip of tea and said: "If your Excellency reaches the Great Perfection of the Day After Tomorrow within ten years, you can exchange the internal strength of the Taishan Sect in Huashan, and you can break through the innate ability." ”

The red-faced man's excited face turned red, as if he was about to drip blood, he took out an ingot of fifty taels of official silver from his arms, turned around and put it in Xiao Er's tray, and said to the iron-mouthed old man: "This is fifty taels of silver, and the extra silver will moisten Mr." With that, he clenched his fists, turned to check out, and left the tavern.

Mr. Liu's wonderful performance attracted a group of drinkers to discuss with each other, and one person said in a loud voice: "The Taishan faction is a famous and decent family, how can the 'Xudu Ghost Sword' renovate the function of Mount Tai to break through the innate nature?"

As soon as the man's voice fell, a gong sounded, and the tavern acquiesced that the man was asking questions, making the man's face flushed, and he didn't dare to stand up and ask questions generously.

Dongfang Bai felt a little funny, and raised his voice and said: "I'll give thirty taels, so I'll ask the question of that brother Tai just now." ”

Because of the angle problem, Mr. Tiezui Liu could barely see Dongfang Bai, nodded and replied: "The mythical Ten Halls of Yama King includes King Taishan, King Equality, etc., and it is a coincidence that the previous 'Ten Halls Ghost Gate' also had a King of Taishan, and this person is an outcast of the Taishan faction. The previous person's swordsmanship had the shadow of King Taishan, so changing the internal strength of the Taishan faction in the future should not affect this person's cultivation. ”

Dongfang Bai was also a little surprised when he heard this, this old man's knowledge was far-reaching and extensive, even if he had entered the innate realm now, he would not be able to comment on the innate opportunities of others so lightly.

At this time, some people began to bid, one by one, and the scene was extremely enthusiastic.

Dongfang Bai asked Xiao Er: "This old man also answers questions like this on weekdays, and he has never been asked?"

Xiao Er smiled and said: "How can it, Mr. Liu is not an immortal, he can know five hundred years in advance and five hundred years later." However, nine out of nine of these questions can be answered by the gentleman, or he would not be called '''. Don't look at them spending money to beg Mr. for a word, but this sentence may save lives, save money, and make money, so there is an endless stream of people asking questions. ”

Dongfang Baiqi said: "This old man is familiar with the allusions of the rivers and lakes, he should be a person with a name and a surname, how come I have never heard of his name." ”

Xiao Er said with a smile: "Mr. Liu used to be a storyteller, and he was more interested in the affairs of the rivers and lakes. ”

Dongfang Bai smiled and said: "Such a character, how could Yuelai Tavern let him go." ”

Xiao Er said: "The proprietor behind the Yuelai Tavern is the Huashan faction, and the Huashan faction is the most reasonable. Mr. Liu signed a contract with Yuelai Tavern, and our owner paid Mr. Liu's liquidated damages according to the contract, and then Mr. Liu was poached. ”

After Dongfang Bai listened, he said in his heart what is this, and the Huashan faction is full of business scriptures.

At this time, a fat businessman spoke, overpowering the other drunkards, only to hear him say in a Jin Provincial accent: "Five contribution points to ask, do you miss it?"

The other drinkers immediately shut up, and those who can settle with contribution points are all local tyrants. Nowadays, contribution points are not as difficult to obtain as before, but their value is roughly stable between fifteen and twenty taels of silver, and they have no market. As long as someone sells contribution points, how many points will be acquired.

A gong sounded, and the fat merchant asked, "Do you know the 'anti-business order' issued by the governor's yamen?"

Mr. Ironzui Liu looked at the businessman, nodded a little funny, showed two yellow front teeth, and said, "I know." ”

'Knock!' A gong sounded, and a junior reminded him: "Five contribution points." ”

Haha, the other Jianghu people laughed, it's almost the same if people don't say 'Chrysostom and Yuyan', every question you ask for money is answered.

You are polite to him and ask, 'Have you eaten?' People nodded, and the two words 'eat' will earn you money. This businessman is rich and rich, but he looks a little silly.

Who knows if the merchant waved his hand indifferently and continued to ask, "How strong is the Governor's execution?

This time he really asked the point, Old Man Liu pinched his beard and thought for a while, before he considered it and said: "Your Excellency the Governor is extraordinarily determined, and the official documents sent to various places are also harshly worded, and the LT County Order was suspended for investigation, and the effect of killing chickens and monkeys is very good." ”

"The day before yesterday, ZG County ordered the organization of anti-camp and military service, and set up a card check caravan in Tongguan, without tax increase or deduction, and the customs clearance time was probably delayed for half a day, which also made some merchants panic. ”

Mr. Liu, who was in the iron mouth, licked his lips and said word by word: "As for the Huashan faction's countermeasures, the Huashan faction has not taken any action yet. However, there is a piece of news that can be slightly corroborated, the 'white-haired Chaoyang Sword' returned to the Jade Girl Peak from Chaoyang Peak yesterday, perhaps to discuss this matter with the high-level of Huashan. ”

The question and answer between the two people was not a matter of the rivers and lakes, and many drinkers listened impatiently, but the rules were like this, and many people had to drink silently.

But people with a heart heard the problem from it, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts: businessmen are worthy of walking in all directions, buying low and selling high, and every penny can only be earned by spending thought and brains. I don't blame the businessmen as a group of shrewd people.

Dongfang Bai took advantage of the fact that the merchant did not continue to ask, and said loudly: "I will give twenty contribution points, just ask Mr. to explain clearly, what this 'business suppression order' is, and what the consequences will be if it is implemented." ”

The merchant obviously knew the power of the 'anti-business order', but when he saw such a noble son as Dongfang Bai, he gave up his hand and acquiesced to Dongfang Bai's problem.

When the old man Liu explained clearly that the 'business suppression order' would slowly hang the Huashan faction, those Jianghu people who were eating wine also put down their cups and made their own calculations.

Dongfang Bai drank all the tea in one gulp and muttered, "I originally wanted to go up the mountain to see my sister, but I heard such news." I remember that Situ Xuan said before that there is a person in his hometown who specializes in doing good deeds, what is it called. It seems that I have to be Lei Feng once. ”

"You've helped me a lot in the past few years, and I have to return the favor once. The governor of Shanxi, so majestic and evil, and he is also the father of Wei Lai's little beauty, presumably Situ Xuan will not be able to make a move on him, and he will not be able to reach out and pull you once. Don't thank me, who made me Lei Feng, haha. ”

After speaking, Dongfang Bai's Danfeng eyes flashed with a fierce killing intent.

(Leprechaun, I see how you still hook up with people.) ）

。。。

Shen Ming ran wildly for a day and a night, and with the master of the innate Great Perfection, one day and one night was enough to run out for more than a thousand miles, and he rushed from outside the Yumen Pass to the river.

Ran fetched river water, crumpled the dry food and worked together, and handed it to Shen Ming.

Knowing that the true qi was seriously depleted, he barely ate and drank a few sips, and then instructed Ran: "We have to cross the river quickly, and after crossing the river, we will leave the territory of the Hexi Visiting Envoy." The idea is too strong, and we can only avoid its edge. ”

He said, "Yes, it's good to cross the river, and after crossing the river, you will enter the territory of the Hanoi Visitor." It's really 'thousands of miles to send death, courtesy is light and affectionate'. ”

Shen Ming slapped it on the head and scolded: "What nonsense. The Hanoi envoy and the Hexi envoy have always been at odds, as long as they avoid Jingyu's dogskin road. ”

He asked, "Then how do we avoid the Hanoi envoy?" ”

Shen Ming obviously had already thought about it, and then said: "Let's go to Hetao, then go to the ancient Great Wall, pass through Yulin to Shuofang, and go to Hengshan to join one of your uncles." ”

He was surprised: "Hengshan Sect, that's Tongtian Group, one of the Five Peaks Sword Sect, can they still have anything to do with Buddhism?"

Shen Ming sneered twice and said, "You'll know when you arrive." (To be continued.) )
