That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 337

Xiao Zhinan had told Xu Beiyou in letters more than once that the key to a big plan lies in the employment of people. She quoted Zeng Wenzheng's words, "For big things, the first priority is to choose multiple substitutes."

Xu Beiyou took this very seriously, and he did the same thing. The Sword Qi Lingkong Hall was handed over to Song Guanguan, and the Jiange Pavilion was handed over to Zhang An. Now Zhang An is busy with the sea route, while Song Guanguan was ordered by Xu Beiyou to hunt down Zhang Daoshuo and Zhang Daoshuo who had not yet returned to Qizhou. Wu Lezhi.

In fact, Xu Beiyou doesn't care about the life and death of these two people, because Zhang Zhaonu is dead, and these two people alone can't make any waves. He cares more about the Five Poison Sword in Wu Lezhi's hand. It was a bit of a prophetic meaning, because he had escaped from the Daoshu Workshop before the opening of the Great Four Elephants and Five Elements Formation. Now Xu Beiyou can only confirm that they are still in the south of the Yangtze River, but he doesn't know where they are. Other than that, there is no other way.

These are the two most important things on hand for Xu Beiyou. As for the other less important things, Xu Beiyou will usually hand them over to Li Qinglian, and let Wu Yu help him, so that there will be no major mistakes, and he will be tempered.

The eldest lady, Li Qinglian, who had been leisurely and leisurely all day long, was arrested by Xu Beiyou. The boss was unwilling, but there was no way. Master Zhang Xueyao also meant the same thing as her senior brother, so she could only obey obediently.

With a good substitute, Xu Beiyou will have a lot of leisure in the following days. Since the correspondence with Xiao Zhinan was cut off, he has started to practice some mysterious skills of mustard seed. Li Qiankun, or the Buddhist kingdom in the palm of the Buddhist sect, can open up a small world, which is not big, and is generally used to hold some personal belongings.

Just imagine if two masters of the Earth Immortal fight against each other, with more than a dozen swords on their backs, like a sword seller, and all kinds of magic weapons in their hands, like a street peddler. What words?How can there be a wave of a hand and a sword to look like a fairy?
Xu Beiyou now has the five swords of Tianlan, Quexie, Zidian, Xuanming, and Chilian in his hands, and he can't carry five swords on his back when he can't go out. It's outrageous, so he must learn this method.

Just when Xu Beiyou first got a glimpse of the door, people from the imperial capital came.

Wu Yu told him that the person who came was from the old man.

"Sir" is Xu Beiyou's own unique title. It is not easy for others to call him like this, but it is also not easy to call him Mr. Han Ge, which seems to be a natural thing, so Wu Yu and others called him old man, which seems kind and respectful. Xu Beiyou No comment on that either.

The person who came this time brought Xu Beiyou a message from Han Xuan, explaining two things respectively, one of which was a matter that had been decided long ago.

As early as the beginning of the year, father and son Xu Beiyou and Han Xuan talked about this matter. They both said that being rich never forgets their roots. The father and son are considered rich now. After all, Xiaofangzhai is the place where they have stayed for 20 years, and it is considered half of their hometown. , can't forget those poor folks.

According to Han Xuan's intention, he should go and say hello to Xiaofangzhai. After all, it is more convenient for the yamen to do some things.However, Xiaofangzhai can only be regarded as a third-rate village in the northwest. The land is barren and cannot support many people. The young and strong people in the village, who have a little ambition, are unwilling to plan food in the soil and go out to make a living.

For those with lofty ambitions, go directly to the imperial capital, or to Jiangdu, the world of flowers and flowers in the south of the Yangtze River.Those who are a little bit short, go to Zhongdu, the land of Longxing, the Taizu of this dynasty, or go to the capital of Shanzhou.The worst thing is to go to Danxia Village, the largest village in Xiheyuan.

A few young men did go to Jiangdu. At the beginning of the year, Xu Beiyou was busy dealing with Zhang Zhaonu, so naturally he didn't care about this. Now that they have stabilized, they might as well give them a hand.

Xu Beiyou entrusted this matter to Wu Yu, and Wu Yu acted vigorously, bringing people in front of Xu Beiyou in just three days.

This is a plainly dressed young man, fairly clean, well-behaved, and somewhat reserved.

Xu Beiyou knew him, and his name was Fang Sanqing, because he was the third child in his family, and the name Qing was given to him by his husband.

Fang Sanqing is considered to be the most promising young man in Xiaofangzhai, because he not only left the northwest, but also followed the caravan all the way to Jiangdu. .

When Xu Beiyou was still running back and forth between Xiaofangzhai and Danxiaozhai, many people compared Fang Sanqing with Xu Beiyou, and joked that Xu Beiyou was "not able to pull out a donkey shed" and dared not venture out.

If there is no accident, Fang Sanqing will survive for another few decades, maybe he will be able to become a shopkeeper, relying on the savings he has accumulated for most of his life to buy a small house in Jiangdu City, marry a wife and have children, and grow up in Fangzhai. Becoming a native of Jiangdu, one can be regarded as one of the best among his peers in Xiaofangzhai.

Then, a lifetime passed by like this.

Can't say it's bad, but it's not good either.

Xu Beiyou didn't like this kind of life.

Today Fang Sanqing is still busy in the pawn shop, serving tea and water to the guests, or beating the shopkeepers sitting behind the high counter. It is this ingenuity that allows him to gain a firm foothold in Jiangdu.

At noon, a guest came, accompanied by the owner himself, and asked to see him by name.

In front of his boss, he was very reserved.

Then he heard the guest ask him: "Are you Fang Sanqing? From Xiaofangzhai?"

Fang Sanqing subconsciously nodded when he heard the words Xiaofangzhai.

The guest said to the owner that it was him.

The boss just respectfully promised.

Then he was brought into a carriage and came to a luxurious mansion, where he saw a woman who was as beautiful as a fairy.

The very dignified guest in front of the owner was very careful in front of this woman, calling her Miss Wu, and then this Miss Wu led him into the mansion that was so imposing that he couldn't imagine it.

There were many guards with swords along the way, and there were also many graceful maids. Without exception, they would salute respectfully when they saw Miss Wu.

Fang Sanqing thought secretly in his heart, this must have entered the mansion of a powerful man, and definitely not an ordinary rich man, he must be a real big shot, in the words of a storyteller, that is covering the sky with one hand.

When he saw the white-haired young man in the side hall, he failed to recognize him immediately, but instinctively lowered his head, not daring to breathe too much.

Fang Sanqing can't be blamed, after all, Xu Beiyou is very different from his early years in terms of clothing and demeanor, and he also has dazzling white hair, although since Xu Beiyou stepped into the realm of the earth fairy, the white hair seems to have turned green. The progress was slow, though, except for a not-so-obvious strand of black hair hidden among the white hair.

But when he was sitting on the authentic red sandalwood chair, he still couldn't help taking a sneak peek at this "big man".

This glance made Fang Sanqing almost fall off his chair. How could this white-haired "big man" look like Xu Xiaozi from his hometown? !
In his mind, Xu Xiaozi and Lao Hantou are people with foreign surnames. They are different from the people in the village, and their relationship is also indifferent. , I don't see much ability, but my tone is very loud, and I talk about it, saying that I want to be a high-ranking official, I want to be a master, and I'm not afraid of the wind flashing my tongue!
You can do what you want, nobleman?If you don't piss to see what kind of virtue you are, it depends on your background and whether you have that fate.

This is actually true.

Either look at the background, or look at the fate.

Xu Beiyou can be regarded as occupying both, so he has today's status.

He smiled and said, "Brother Fang San doesn't know me anymore? I'm Beiyou."

Fang Sanqing's eyes widened suddenly, almost falling off the eyeballs.

It's really Boy Xu!
