Alienated Martial Arts.

Chapter 39
This guy.

There are too many words.

Does he have any interest relationship with the Wang siblings in private?
Or is it an unexplainable relationship?

Otherwise why tit for tat everywhere,
Chattering and chattering endlessly?
so annoying...

I really want to stand up and punch him to death.

Just punch him to death!

Facing Zheng Jue's series of questions, Wei Tao simply closed his eyes, rubbed his hands under the table, his blood began to circulate at a faster speed, his fingertips were slightly red, slightly itchy, and a little inexplicably swollen.

"Okay, don't talk about it, what time is it now, and you are still arguing there, it's so unbecoming!"

After a while, Tan Pan finally interrupted Zheng Jue's aggressive questioning, and said in a more serious tone, "Third Junior Brother, Fourth Junior Brother, you'd better be more careful these days.

Although I am still not completely sure whether Junior Sister Yingxue was killed by the red line fist,

Whether the teacher who defected back then was found is still open to question.
But before the murderer surfaced, there is nothing wrong with being cautious. "

Suo Yunhai raised his head and said, "Senior brother, I think the murder of Senior Sister Yingxue probably has nothing to do with the old enemy of the teacher."

He drank a sip of tea to moisten his throat, "Junior brother just thought about it carefully, if it is really that person, and he has already practiced his boxing skills to an extremely advanced level,

Then if he wants to take revenge, he probably won't have too much cover-up, and it is the most convenient and quick choice to go directly to the martial arts gym of his family to catch them all. "

"Of course, senior brother wants everyone to be careful. I absolutely agree with this point. It's better to avoid the limelight in the near future, and don't easily put yourself in danger."

Tan Pan nodded thoughtfully, "What the fourth junior brother said is very reasonable, we can also investigate secretly next time, whether the Silver Wolf Gang has an enmity with someone, which is why this kind of catastrophe happened."

"Also, an organization called the Red Lantern Society has recently appeared in the outer city. Their water is very deep.

If you meet, you'd better stay away, don't provoke easily, don't even talk nonsense outside, you've heard it all. "

The room quickly quieted down, and several people were thinking about each other, and no longer spoke.

Tan Pan took a sip of his tea, "Okay, that's all I want to say, let's all leave."

Everyone got up and walked outside.

Zheng Juan and Suo Yunhai walked together, exchanged something in a low voice, and soon left the inner courtyard.

Qi Wuya was slightly behind, and jumped out of the gate.

"Brother Wei, stay here for a while."

Just as Wei Tao was about to go out, Tan Pan's voice came from behind him.

He stopped in his tracks and turned around to look, "Eldest senior brother, what else do you want?"

"The morning after tomorrow, if Junior Brother Wei has nothing important to do, accompany me to the inner city."

Tan Pan leaned back on the back of the chair, slowly kneading the center of his brows, "The Huang family organized a garden tour to appreciate plum blossoms, and there will be a banquet during the period, I am going to take you there to see the world, it is a good opportunity to expand your network .

If you are lucky, you can meet a few nobles from the inner city at the reception, which will be of great benefit to your future. "

"I understand, thank you brother for your support." Wei Tao cupped his fists and saluted.

"You and I are from the same family, and we are both from civilian background, so we should take care of each other."

Tan Pan waved his hand, and when he spoke again, his tone became calm again, "Zheng Jue's temper and tone are not very good today, so don't take it too seriously. He has always had a good relationship with Junior Sister Yingxue. This time something like this happened. It is normal for the mood to fluctuate due to unexpected changes.”

Wei Tao smiled and spoke softly, "Elder brother, don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who doesn't know what's good or bad."

"That's good, don't easily hurt the harmony among fellow students."

Tan Pan sighed, "The world has become more and more chaotic recently. The teacher also mentioned before leaving that you can prepare some weapons and fodder in advance according to the changes in the situation. If necessary, you can even arm the registered disciples in case of unexpected needs."

"The seventh junior brother plans to purchase the food and fodder. You have been in charge for a period of time. It shouldn't be difficult to raise money. Just ask me for the money you need."

"I'll start preparing as soon as I get down." Wei Tao nodded, "What about the weapons, what do we need to build?"

"You don't need to control all kinds of long and short weapons."

Tan Pan pointed outside the door, "Could it be that the seventh junior brother has forgotten the ninth junior sister who was recently included in this sect?"

Wei Tao was stunned, and smiled self-consciously, "That's right, there is Miss Qi from Blacksmith Lane, so there is really no need to worry too much about this."

Coming out of the living room, Wei Tao went directly to the martial arts arena.

Stimulate condensed energy and blood, and familiarize yourself with moves.

He is the only one left in the entire inner courtyard, which is very suitable for calming down and practicing.

After some penance, he wiped his sweat and sat down on the armchair that the teacher often sat on to rest.

The bright sun shines directly down, warming the person's body, and sleepiness also follows.

Wei Tao closed his eyes, enjoying the rare peaceful time.

It was a little hasty to directly kill the Silver Wolf Gang headquarters that night.

Without a more complete plan and preparation in advance, the Qinghe Society hastily organized insufficient manpower, which eventually led to a chaotic battle, and failed to eat up all the core backbone of the Silver Wolf Gang at the very beginning.

There is also Wang Yingxue's corpse, it seems that just destroying the corpse is not enough.

It's like after making full preparations later, it's a better choice to deal with the deputy leader of the Blackstone Gang and let her disappear without seeing people or dead bodies.

Summarize the experience and lessons well, and if you do it later, you should try to avoid such problems.

........................

At noon, it is the busiest time in the city.

Especially today was the big fair in the middle of the month, when people from nearby villages in Zhuangzhen entered the city one after another to sell goods and buy daily necessities, several main streets were suddenly crowded.

Wei Tao followed the flow of people along the long street, and soon came to a grain store.

A fat, white, middle-aged man was leaning against the counter to eat.

The big white rice in the bowl is poured with shining lard, and then there is a plate of fried lamb leg, and you can smell the rich aroma even standing outside the door.

"Treasurer Qian, I'm here to buy some food." Wei Tao opened the curtain and entered the store.

"Rice or noodles, refined grains or coarse grains, how much do you want, I'll ask the guy to weigh it for you..."

The middle-aged man was talking casually, but stopped suddenly after a while, and a smile blossomed on his oily face.

"Oh, it's such a cold day, why did the guard come here in person? Have you had lunch yet? I'll ask the kitchen to cook two dishes, and the two of us have a drink."

"I won't eat the rice. I bought a lot this time, so I don't worry if I go there myself." Wei Tao casually found a stool and sat down, and took the tea from the waiter next to him.

"I bought too much, so how can I do so much?" Shopkeeper Qian picked up the remaining mutton on the plate with a smile, and piled them into a hill with chopsticks.

Wei Tao took a sip of hot tea, and the tip of his tongue felt a touch of fragrance mixed with the scalding heat.

He slowly raised three fingers, "According to the daily consumption of the martial arts school, this time it will take at least three or four months."

"hiss!"

Shopkeeper Qian lost his hand, and the hillside of the mutton on the plate collapsed.

He simply poured all the mutton into the bowl, chewed it in big mouthfuls, and said vaguely, "Brother Wei, you used to buy food according to the amount of ten days and a half months, why are you suddenly buying so much today?" Woolen cloth?"

Wei Tao yawned, and said casually, "Oh, I have processed a batch of old food from the back kitchen these few days, and bought a new batch of large vats for a cheap price. Master Zhou saw it later and let those vats empty. So what's going on?"

Shopkeeper Qian found a small wooden thorn and picked his teeth, his face full of embarrassment.

"puff!"

After a dozen or so breaths, he spit out a small piece of brittle bone, and then sighed, "If other people come over, I really don't know how to take this order.

That is to say, for the sake of our long-term happy cooperation, no matter how difficult this matter is, I will do it for Brother Wei. "

"But my brother settles the account clearly, we have to clarify the price to Brother Wei in advance."

"Well, it's natural." Wei Tao nodded slightly, sitting there with his eyes closed and resting his mind, the sound of the abacus crackling in his ears from time to time.

After drinking a cup of hot tea, the sound of crackling abacus finally stopped.

Shopkeeper Qian put down the brush in his hand, and spread a piece of straw paper full of small characters on the table.

"So much money?"

Wei Tao picked up the toilet paper from the counter, glanced at it, and couldn't help frowning, "Treasurer Qian, you must have miscalculated."

"That's right, it's the price."

Shopkeeper Qian wiped his greasy lips, and said decisively, "It's still for the face of the regular customer, and I wiped off some change for Brother Wei."

Wei Tao tapped the countertop with his fingers, and made a clear and crisp sound, "I have the account of the previous food purchase in my hand. It's only been a few days. How can the unit price of rice noodles per catty increase so much?"

"What's more, if I buy so much at once, it should be lower than the usual price."

"Brother Wei, you are wrong."

Shopkeeper Qian smiled and helped them refill their tea, "It's not that the more you buy, the lower the unit price, but the more you buy, the higher the unit price will be."

"Oh? There is such a novel way of saying?"

"It may not have existed before, but in this world, it really must exist."

Shopkeeper Qian took a sip of the hot tea and narrowed his eyes in comfort.

"Nowadays there is war in Mozhou, refugees are coming one after another, and the severe winter is coming, every household in the city needs to store winter food,
This food price is not only the same every day, it can change several times in a day. "

"So, for us to buy so much food all at once, we are actually losing a lot of money.

That is to say, my shop is backed by the master in the inner city, and there is a large area of ​​tenant farms outside to support it.
If you change to another grain store, they are afraid that they will not accept your business like the old brother. "

"Besides, people have no long-term worries, but they must have near-term worries;

Before the autumn wind moves, the cicada is aware of it, plotting impermanence and death without knowing it.

Brother Wei also knows that standing behind our shop is some master from the inner city,

Your martial arts school can see what you feel in advance. Could it be that the old man will be blinded?
Maybe it's also because of standing taller and seeing farther. "

Shopkeeper Qian moved closer and lowered his voice, "Aside from other things, if the chaos in Mozhou spreads, food is more precious than real gold and silver. As the saying goes, if you have food at home and hold a knife and gun, you will not panic. "

You stockpile grain and I stockpile guns, your home is my granary.

Such a sentence inexplicably flashed through Wei Tao's mind, and he nodded slightly, "What Brother Qian said is indeed very reasonable."

He grabbed the pen and paper, and added a line at the end of the straw paper, "I will add another cart of rice noodles and a cart of dried meat, and send them to this house."

"Brother Wei, don't worry, our old money has always been tight-fisted, and there will never be any mistakes in the accounts."

Shopkeeper Qian smiled, and gave him a look that everyone understood, and after confirming, he threw the straw paper into the heating stove.
