That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 307
Zhang Zhaonu is not Murong Xuanyin. Even if Zhang Xueyao never used Zhu Xian, he was defeated without any suspense. He was defeated by the cooperation of three women, and finally Zhang Xueyao cut his throat with a sword. , but also seriously injured, the Kunshan suzerain retreated in a little embarrassment.

Zhang Zhaonu lost, and it was not easy for the three women to win.

In any case, if Zhang Zhaonu were to face any of the three women alone, even Qin Mumian, who had the highest level of cultivation, would still have the upper hand. There is a complete assurance of leaving him.

This is Zhang Zhaonu's confidence to go to Jiangdu alone.

Perhaps it was because of Zhang Zhaonu's turmoil in the East China Sea, a large amount of water vapor from the sea flowed upstream, and it actually gathered into a black cloud to overwhelm the city in this early spring season.

In the evening, the entire Jiangdu was plunged into a torrential rain.

As the most prosperous place in the world, Jiangdu is close to the estuary of the great river, faces the State of Wei across the East China Sea, and is connected to the imperial capital through the Dongjiang Grand Canal that runs across the north and south. No matter whether it is transported by water or by sea, it is impossible to get around this majestic city of Jiangdu. , There are countless ships passing by every day.

This heavy rain caught all the fleets by surprise, so in the rain at this time, there are still countless figures running in the heavy rain, either busy anchoring and docking, or busy covering the cargo, or will not be able to The goods that were in the water were loaded into the carriage and moved quickly. Some people were carrying bags, some were setting up boxes, some were busy lowering the sails, and some were shouting loudly and pulling the ropes. It was even more lively than usual.

Fortunately, this heavy rain was just heavy rain, and there was no howling wind or thunder and lightning. As long as you put on your rain gear, don't fall into the water. At most, you will suffer from the cold and drink a few bowls of ginger soup afterwards, and you will not be in danger of your life.

There is a high slope not far from the pier on the shore. In the early years, the Jiangdu Navy used to place the fort. However, as the Jiangdu Navy declined, it became increasingly deserted. A mottled fort, overgrown with weeds.

At this time, on the fort, there was a group of people standing and looking at the pier. The leader was Xu Beiyou, and beside him was Zhang An, who had taken over most of Jianzong's business. Behind them, there was a follower holding an umbrella for him. , Surrounded by a group of swordsman guards from the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall.

After all, today's rivers are no worse than those in the early years, with undercurrents surging, and without the cultivation base of the earth fairy realm, it is better to be careful when traveling.

Xu Beiyou looked down at the stagnant water under his feet, and asked, "How about the loss of the fleet?"

Zhang An's face was a little dignified, and he replied: "Young master, most of the ships have entered the dock, and people have been arranged to unload the ships, so it's not a big problem, but there is a lucky boat that leaks seriously, and I'm afraid it won't last long. It is also difficult to repair the weather, and I am afraid it is a bit risky."

"I remember that this eight-foot-long lucky boat costs about 70 taels of silver together with its materials and construction. Adding the goods on board, it is nearly a million taels of silver. Recently, there have been some entanglements between Zongli and Buddhism, and it may take some silver, so this ship must not sink.”

"I've already sent people to each house to inform us to let our ship enter the port." Zhang An nodded yes.

After saying this, Xu Beiyou looked up at the pier with a gloomy expression.

Under Huanghuang Tianwei, all living beings are like ants. It is no wonder that the great cultivator who can stir up the power of heaven and earth is no longer a cultivator, but a fairy of the land.

Now he is only one step away from the realm of the fairyland, and the five-poison sword in Wu Lezhi's hands has become the most important thing. As long as he can absorb all the sword spirit and spirit of this sword, then he is [-]% sure to achieve the fairyland boundary.

As long as one sets foot in the realm of the Earth Immortal, whether it is extremely peaceful or not, not only can the lost energy be "regenerated by the spring breeze", but also combined with the already opened upper dantian Zifu sea of ​​consciousness, the overall cultivation can be improved to a higher level.

Xu Beiyou couldn't help but sigh softly.

As far as the current situation is concerned, only the Earth Immortal Realm is qualified to enter the game, and can truly have the identity of an insider.

At this time, another fleet came towards the pier in the heavy rain. It seemed that they were some big merchants who came to the shore in a hurry after encountering this sudden wind and rain. The person in charge of this fleet It was a young woman, and she was standing on the side of the boat overlooking the port regardless of the wind and rain.

The woman is tall and slender, and her clothing has an obvious post-construction style, especially the huge ruby ​​forehead ornament on her forehead, which is extremely eye-catching, and she looks a little arrogant in her gaze.

Surrounding the woman is not a maidservant, but a martial artist number seven or eight, especially an old man with a pale golden face, and there is a flash of light between his eyes. Monk Characters.

As far as this battle alone is concerned, this woman is obviously not from an ordinary merchant's family, maybe she is the daughter of a rich and powerful family.

The woman pointed to the fleet that was slowly entering the port ahead, and asked, "Which fleet is this? It's such a big show, other fleets will give way to them."

A person in charge in a coir raincoat replied, "Miss Hui, it's Zhang's fleet."

"The Zhang family?" The woman raised her eyebrows, "Which Zhang family? Several great families in the south of the Yangtze River, Xie, Zhao, Yan, Han, Bai, Tang, Li, and Sun, I have never heard of a Zhang family."

The old man said: "Miss, the Zhang family is Zhang Xueyao of Jianzong."

"Jianzong!" The woman's eyes suddenly lit up, "So it was them, Master Murong was stabbed by that old woman named Zhang Xueyao."

The old man's face changed slightly, and he said with a three-point vigilance: "Miss, be careful, this place is no better than the other places, but the core of Jianzong. That person lives in the East Lake courtyard outside Jiangdu City, and most of the immortals have The cicada perceives the magic before the autumn wind moves, so it's better for the young lady not to mention that person's name."

The woman is not ignorant of the heights of the heavens and the depths of the savage temper, after agreeing obediently, she turned to say: "Grandpa Long, what do you mean by Master? I stayed well in Wei State, and I almost saw that His Royal Highness the King of Wei is here, but the ancestor let us come to Jiangdu at this time, is it possible that he wants to enter Jiangdu by force for the third time?"

The old man who was called "Grandpa Long" by the woman shook his head and said, "The leader's thoughts are as deep as the ocean, and we are the only ones who can figure it out."

The woman sighed, "The ancestors who look down on the world with force will stumble here, let alone us, maybe we will be stabbed to death by the sword sect just after we enter Jiangdu."

The old man surnamed Long smiled, "That's not the case, as long as we abide by their rules, they won't do anything to us."

The woman suddenly remembered something and asked: "By the way, I heard that the current head of Jianzong is Xu, how about this person?"

Although the previous middle-aged steward didn't know exactly what the young lady was talking about about Jianzong, he knew who the "surname Xu" was, so he hurriedly replied: "Miss is asking Mr. Xu, right? This Mr. Xu is very impressive now." , is a first-class powerful person in Jiangdu City, not only has equal friendship with the chief officials of the third department, but also has a lot of friendship with the Xie family and the Li family. Visiting the pier, I will go to this Mr. Xu's mansion for a while. The local big family will also go to this Mr. Xu when they encounter difficulties. I heard that Zhang An, the new talker of the Zhang family, has some ambiguities with this Mr. Xu. ..."

The woman sneered and interrupted him: "It's still a local tyrant, so why don't we go to his mansion and pay our respects to the pier?"

The steward tremblingly dared not say another word.

Because this master has the most distinguished surname in the future, the Wanyan family.

The Wanyan family is the royal family of Houjian, and its patriarch is Wanyan Beiyue who is in the [-]th Floor of the Earth Immortal. This woman is Wanyan Beiyue's grandniece according to her seniority. If she is placed in Houjian, she is a real county host.

When this princess was still a young child, she often went to the palace with her parents to face saints. Wanyan Beiyue, who had always disliked children, actually put her on her lap to play with. No one else can compare.

After she grew up to be a young girl, she won the favor of Murong Xuanyin again, accepting apprentices on behalf of her disciples. This is almost unimaginable in the future. You must know that Wanyan Beiyue and Murong Xuanyin have been at odds for a long time. , Murong Xuanyin has always been indifferent to members of the Wanyan clan, and being loved by both of them at the same time, one can imagine the status of a woman in Houjian.

The woman lightly stroked the bright red forehead ornament between her eyebrows, playing with taste: "Mr. Xu."

At this moment, the old man next to the woman seemed to feel something, suddenly raised his head, and looked in the direction of the fort through the heavy rain.

Just in time, I saw the figure with the sword who was about to turn around and leave.
