Chapter 227: Nangong Chunshui's spiritual consciousness seeks a disciple, and the cold-faced yo
The outskirts of Qianyue Town.
Ever since Nangong Chunshui brought Sikong Changfeng back to Qianyue Town from the Tang Clan in Shu, apart from going to Luo Sheng to joke, drink and brag every day, he would take Yin Luoxia to an open grassland two or three miles away from Qianyue Town to watch Sikong Changfeng practice his spear skills.
At noon that day, after the three of them had finished their meal, Sikong Changfeng looked at the wine pot and silently thought of Baili Dongjun -
"Master, it's been seven or eight days, why hasn't Dongjun come to see us yet?"
"Didn't you say you wanted to go to Snow Moon City to see your sweetheart before the end of this month? It's almost the end of the month, aren't you in a hurry?"
Sikong Changfeng asked while holding a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth.
Nangong Chunshui was half-lying on his back against an old elm tree, squinting his eyes in contentment:
"What about him? No rush, no rush. He was taken to Lingnan by that brat Wen Yanzhao to visit relatives. Maybe he should be back in a few days."
Yin Luoxia asked curiously:
"Grandmaster, when you say visiting relatives, does Junior Martial Uncle Baili go back to visit his grandfather Wen Lin?"
Nangong Chunshui straightened up impatiently:
"Of course not. You two are so annoying. I just want to have a good meal and a few hours of leisurely time under the warm winter sun. Why do you two keep asking questions?
"Sikong Changfeng, don't just stand there. How well have you learned the Shocking Dragon Transformation that I taught you? Go practice it now!"
"And you, Yin Luoxia... Have you mastered my internal breathing exercises?"
"Wooah... Master will sleep for a while, just for a while!"
As he spoke, Nangong Chunshui leaned against the old elm tree again and slowly fell asleep.
Sikong Changfeng spat out the dogtail grass in his mouth and whispered to Yin Luoxia:
"Is Master always so lazy?"
Yin Luoxia smiled slyly: "No, I'm usually even lazier than this!"
Nangong Chunshui heard the latter part of the sentence clearly. He jumped up and looked at the two of them.
Yin Luoxia's beautiful cheeks suddenly turned red, and she stammered:
"Master, please listen to my excuse... No, please listen to my explanation..."
Nangong Chunshui waved his hand: "Don't quibble. It's not because of what you said about me, but I remembered that I have to inform that stupid disciple. We can't go to Xueyue City without him..."
Sikong Changfeng and Yin Luoxia looked at each other, somewhat confused, while Nangong Chunshui was delighted and entered into a trance in an instant!
His spiritual consciousness traveled around Beili and first went to Lingnan, but found that the two were no longer there.
Then he went to Qiandong City, but he didn't know that the two brothers had already set out the day before he arrived.
Nangong Chunshui had no choice but to go north along Qiandong City and cross three or four hundred miles of mountain roads before he found the two brothers in a deserted village and a wild inn.
"You little bastard, you've made my master suffer!"
Wen Yanzhao and Baili Dongjun had just ordered rice wine and plain noodles when they heard a familiar voice behind them.
Baili Dongjun turned around with joy upon hearing the voice and said, "Master? Why are you here? Come and sit down..."
"Waiter, give me another helping of what you just ordered!"
Wen Yanzhao carefully looked at Nangong Chunshui for a few times and chuckled:
"No need to go up, sorry for bothering you!"
Baili Dongjun asked in bewilderment, "Cousin, why don't you give Master some food and wine? He came here from Qianyue Town, and he must have traveled over two thousand miles..."
Nangong Chunshui smiled with relief: "Good disciple, thank you for remembering your master!"
"However, since my spiritual consciousness has reached this point, there is no need for wine or food..."
"I came here to tell you that you haven't mastered my unique skills yet. Come to Xueyue City to find me as soon as you finish your business. Sikong Changfeng, Yin Luoxia and I are waiting for you!"
After saying this, the figure turned to Wen Yanzhao and smiled playfully:
"You little brat, you've been playing it too hard lately, but I have to remind you that even though the hundred-year agreement between Xiao Yi and I has passed, you should still be more restrained!"
"Most forces within Beili are still on the side of the Xiao royal family. Be careful, or it could get out of hand and even involve the Baili clan!"
Wen Yanzhao was calm when he heard this and replied calmly:
"He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world. Mr. Xiao Chongjing's virtues must be clearer than I am!"
"Don't worry, sir. I'll also give you a message - whoever wins will be helped!"
Nangong Chunshui rolled his eyes at Wen Yanzhao:
"You're very confident, huh? Then I can only wish you good luck. I don't have the heart to meddle with such mundane matters. You're on your own!"
Wen Yanzhao clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for the reminder, sir. I'll invite you to Lingnan for a drink if I have the chance!"
Nangong Chunshui raised her head and said proudly, "I'm busy!"
As the words fell, the figure transformed into a speck of golden light and vanished into the sky...
Baili Dongjun scratched his head: "What kind of technique is this? Why didn't Master teach me?"
Wen Yanzhao picked up his chopsticks and gently tapped Baili Dongjun's head:
"You're thinking about Taozi. Wait until you enter the realm of Shenyou Xuan!"
……
Apocalypse City, Suzaku Gate.
Before sunset that day, a young man on horseback wearing a conical hat and carrying a black umbrella entered from the Suzaku Gate of Tianqi City.
The boy had a pale face and an ordinary appearance, except for his eyes, which were as bright and sparkling as the rising morning star.
He was carrying a huge black oil-paper umbrella with a particularly thick handle. The captain and imperial guards who were checking at the South Gate just glanced at him a few more times and then let him pass.
After entering the city, the young man headed north, passed through several streets and alleys, and came to an incense and candle shop.
After getting off the horse, he bought some yellow paper incense and candles. The owner of the incense and candle shop was very attentive and tied the things up. Just as he was about to hand them to the young man, he unexpectedly put down the silver and said:
"Leave it here for now. I'll come pick it up on the second watch. The extra money will be treated as the storage fee. Thank you!"
The shopkeeper was about to refuse, but when he saw the young man's frosty eyes, he immediately swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
The young man turned and left. The shopkeeper tremblingly placed the incense, candles, and yellow paper in the corner of the cabinet, muttering to himself:
"What a scary young man! Why does he look like he wants to kill someone? Never mind. He gave me five taels of silver for something worth less than one. I'll wait for him for the sake of the money..."
This old shopkeeper is more than just that. This young man will not look back until his sword is stained with blood!
……
Green Palace.
Ever since Xiao Ruofeng slapped him in the face at Diaolou Cottage last time, Xiao Xie has been particularly honest recently.
It was not because he was timid or recognized the reality, but because he had heard a lot of news from his uncle, the commander of the palace, Mu Liuyun, about the intention of Zhenxi Hou Baili Luochen to rebel.
From then on, he gathered some of his old subordinates whom he had won over in the martial arts world, gave them gold, silver and treasures, and sent them to the four southwestern states to spy on military intelligence.
At the same time, he left a few so-called think tanks in the mansion to discuss secretly. After Baili Luochen started his rebellion, he bribed the killers from Anhe with a large sum of money and went to Qiandong City to assassinate the Baili clan.
When the time comes, he will present the heads of Baili Luochen and Baili Cheng to Emperor Tai'an, and the position of crown prince will definitely be his!
At the beginning of the evening, as the night deepened, a banquet was set up in the middle of the back hall of Prince Qing's Mansion to entertain several martial artists who had just returned from Bingzhou and Qiandong.
The Green King was sitting at the first seat with a smile on his face, and below him sat four men of different appearances. The whole back hall was very noisy.
"Your Highness, I have already found out that there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses guarding the area around Boyue Mountain in Qiandong City. It is very likely that Baili Luochen has hidden the treasury silver of the four states there!"
The person who was speaking was holding a wine glass. He had pale skin and deep eye sockets. The fingers holding the glass were covered with dark brown calluses. He looked like a master who was good at using hidden weapons.
Another hunchbacked dwarf, less than four feet tall, also raised his wine glass:
"Your Highness, Prince Qing, what my senior brother said is correct. Several large warehouses have indeed been built on Bo Yue Mountain. The number of soldiers guarding them is at least 30,000, if not 50,000!"
"On the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, at three o'clock in the morning, he tricked two night watchmen into sneaking in. He circled the Boyue Mountain camp and got a general idea of the situation inside. I was standing guard for him outside. Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."
"You don't know that Baili Cheng was in great danger of discovering us brothers. Fortunately, the two of us are very skilled in Qinggong, and we managed to slip away right under his nose!"
After saying this, the other scarred old man chuckled:
"The Twin Cicadas Under the Leaf are truly worthy of their reputation. They were able to escape from Baili Luochen's Qinggong Three Flying Swallows. They are truly extraordinary! Come, let's raise a toast to His Royal Highness the Green King!"
The Green King smiled sweetly and was already a little tipsy. Seeing this, he also picked up the cup with one hand:
"I rely on all the heroes who brave the wind and rain outside and do not avoid the swords and weapons! I won't say those meaningless words. After we finish drinking, you brothers surnamed Gong from Yedi Shuangchan will each get 3,000 taels. The Broken Knife Man from Shuozhou is also great. Well..."
"You've figured out the details of the Gu family in Chaisang City, right? Good, good, good!"
"The prince will reward you handsomely, adding two thousand taels to each of you! Go!"
Everyone at the table was delighted to hear this. They were just gathering some information for Xiao Xie. By making up a lie, they could easily get five thousand taels!
This money is too easy to make. Five thousand taels is enough for them to live happily for a while!
Several of the strongest ones were only at the Free Land Realm, their faces beaming with joy. They complimented Xiao Xie while scrambling to chug cup after cup of yellow soup...
Little did they know that not far from the main gate of the palace, a cold-faced young man was approaching step by step...
