The Trick of Longevity, Paper-cutting Becomes a Spirit

Chapter 309 The Gu family’s sincerity

Lu Qian originally thought that those who could work in a place like Quyang Town must not be ordinary people.

However, Guo Tuan was wearing human skin, and the waiter in the shop could actually recognize her as a ghost at a glance. This vision and insight still exceeded Lu Qian's expectations.

Even with his skills, he is worth 100 taels of silver.

Thinking of this, Lu Qian took out two more large silver coins and threw them to the waiter.

It is normal for an inn or restaurant to also work as an information dealer.

Spending money to buy information is a matter of course.

Lu Qian was not short of money anyway. At worst, he could dig out the silver mine and get more than 10 taels of silver.

After being given an extra 50 taels of silver, the waiter's face showed a look of surprise. He collected the money and said: "Sir, there are as many as fifteen teams of people who are going to enter the mountain in the near future. Among them, the ones worthy of attention are There are five companies, namely——

Xiao Family in Luocheng, Gu Family in Jinyang, Yin Yang Sect, Golden Sword Sect, Wentian Prison——"

At this point, he pointed out the window and said: "Well, now there is another Hantan Mountain. If I remember correctly, the owner of this ship is Xiao Ran, the 'Hanbo Saint' of Hantan Mountain."

Hearing the word "Xiao Ran", Guo Tuo's expression finally changed. She said to Lu Qian: "'Hanbo Saint' Xiao Ran is a long-famous fifth-grade Guiyuan realm master. In Hantan Mountain, her status is also very important. high."

The Xiao family in Luocheng and the Gu family in Jinyang belong to the second of the "Five Surnames" and are two members of the five major families of cultivators today.

The Yin Yang Sect ranks first among the "six sects".However, its ranking is below the "Five Surnames".

The Golden Sword Sect is one of the four major sword sects, ranking above the "Five Surnames".

When the waiter heard what Guo Tuo said to Lu Qian, he couldn't help being surprised and looked at Lu Qian inexplicably.

This young man has never even heard of the famous "Hanbo Saint" Xiao Ran?

He opened his mouth, as if he didn't know what to say for a moment, and finally said vaguely: "Although there has always been an endless stream of people entering Lone Wolf Ridge, it is very rare to do so on such a large scale now. And these Among the people, the one who leads the team is at least a sixth-grade True Spirit Realm cultivation level. But at the moment, the 'Hanbo Saint' Xiao Ran is definitely the one who wants to win."

Lu Qian nodded, satisfied with the waiter's answer.His 150 taels of silver were not wasted.

Guo Tuo asked: "Are all the people you just mentioned here?"

The waiter said: "I don't know if everyone is here or not, but everyone I told them has already arrived."

Guo Tuan actually wanted to ask if anyone from the Gu family in Jinyang had arrived, but it would be too obvious to just bring the Gu family out to ask questions.

Now it seems that they are paying to buy information from the shopkeeper; but how can their every move and word not become his information?
When dealing with such people, a lot of information will be revealed if you are not careful.

The waiter said that many of the forces that had arrived in Quyang Town had already arrived, which was in vain.

Guo Tuan hesitated for a moment and finally did not continue to ask questions.

After waiting for a while, the waiter saw that they no longer asked questions, so he said: "If our guests have no other questions, then I will take you back to the guest rooms to rest? Our Qitianju has been operating in Quyang Town for hundreds of years. , our guest room environment is definitely second to none here and absolutely worth every penny.”

Hearing this, Lu Qian couldn't help but sigh: "He can obviously grab money directly, but he still doesn't forget his original intention and remembers his original business... Oh, the rooms in this kind of place are probably not cheap."

Lu Qian thought, stood up, and looked back out the window.

I saw that the building boat on the Fenshui River was now moored at the pier in front.

On the high-rise boat, only three men got off the boat, spoke briefly to the people on the dock, and then stepped ashore.

The waiter sighed: "With the status of this saint, I'm afraid she won't get off the ship and come to the shop..."

Lu Qian originally wanted to wait and see what this "Holy Lady of Cold Waves" looked like, but after hearing what the waiter said, he expected that she would live on the boat at night and would not get off the boat and land, so he had to give up.

"Lead the way ahead."

"Alright, guest officer, this way please."

The waiter led the way, and Lu Qian and others followed behind. As they walked, Lu Qian asked some questions about the local customs.

The two chatted all the way out of the main building in front and came to the corridor at the back, where there were three first-class guest rooms lined up.

The waiter said: "I will send someone to bring water later. Guests, please rest early. If you need anything, please call me at any time."

After saying that, he left immediately.

Bai Tan said hello to Lu Qian, and then walked towards the farthest guest room, supported by Hei Wa.

Qinglin always lived alone and walked towards the second guest room.

Xiaofeng looked around and said, "Ms. sir, you guys have something to discuss, I'll go accompany Qing Lin." After saying that, without waiting for Lu Qian's response, she caught up with Qing Lin.

Wang Zirong looked at Xiaofeng's back, her pretty face turned red all of a sudden.

Guo Tuo's eyebrows turned as he watched Xiaofeng pull Qinglin into the room. He looked at Lu Qian with a half-smile but asked, "I heard that this is your first wife?"

Lu Qian nodded.

Guo Shoun also nodded and said: "Very good."

After that, she turned around and walked towards the last guest room.

Lu Qian and Zuo Qiuling also followed closely.

Wang Zirong looked around and had no choice but to follow.

Although Quyang Town is built on a mountain, its area is really not small; Qitianju is known as the largest inn in Quyang Town, and this guest room is indeed unambiguous. The room is large in area and has complete living facilities, including the inner room. The bed is also a very large "babu bed".

This bed alone forms an independent small world.

A wealthy family would have to take care of their maids when they lived and slept, and there might be more than one.

Qi Tianju obviously considered the needs of these people very carefully.

After entering the room, everyone sat down on an Eight Immortals table.After a while, someone brought hot tea, a bathtub, silk clothes and other utensils.

Lu Qian glanced at it and saw that it was a long and narrow double bathtub with white mist inside and filled with hot water.

Next to the bathtub, there is a small table with tea, wine, fruits, and everything else.

Zuo Qiuling saw it and said, "My husband has not been bathing with medicine for a few days. Let's take a dip today."

Lu Qian nodded, first took out a handful of Faceless Boys, went out, completely surrounded the entire room, and cast a magic technique to isolate the sound.

After that, he took out another piece of moon-cutting door and hung it up.The medicinal materials are all placed in the Moon Palace, and they will not carry them with them.

Zuo Qiuling went to the Moon Palace to look for medicinal materials.

Lu Qian immediately opened his robe, paused, and saw no movement, then turned back to look at Guo Tuan.

Guo Tu was sitting on the Grand Master's chair, looking at Lu Qian with the same baffled expression.

Well, this guy really has no sense of serving others.

Lu Qian asked: "What do you think of what the waiter said?"

Guo Tu smiled and said: "Originally, I was only [-]% or [-]% sure about their purpose of entering Lone Wolf Ridge. But now it seems that I am at least [-]% sure that the sheep is going to give birth."

Hearing Guo Tuo's words, Lu Qian frowned slightly and said, "Is it really as effective as you said?"

Guo Shoun said confidently: "Of course. I dare not say more. There will be no problem if your cultivation level is directly improved by one level. My husband, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you. This kind of thing, It is something that can be encountered but cannot be sought.”

While chatting with Guo Tuo, Lu Qian took off his clothes and sat in the tub.

At this time, Zuo Qiuling also came out of the Moon-Jiang Gate, holding a lot of medicinal materials in her hands and throwing them into the water.

Lu Qian thought for a moment and then asked: "So, the Gu family said that their eldest grandson is in Lone Wolf Ridge and asked you to go into the mountain to help them search. Is it just an excuse?"

Guo Tu thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "That's not necessarily the case. I think it might be their eldest grandson who discovered the first-hand news. With his status, he inexplicably entered Lone Wolf Ridge. Don’t you think it’s strange?”

Lu Qian nodded and said, "If he went into the mountains to look for sheep, that would make sense."

Guo Tu said: "Not bad."

After saying that, she smiled again and said: "Originally I just wanted to make some extra money, but unexpectedly, there was an unexpected gain."

Lu Qian also nodded after hearing this.If Guo Tuo's prediction is good, this trip to Lone Wolf Ridge is really a must.

While he was thinking, he raised his eyes and accidentally saw Wang Zirong standing there stupidly.

Lu Qian saw her and said with a smile: "You come in and take a dip too. There are so many medicinal materials, don't waste them."

Zuo Qiuling looked at Wang Zirong, and then said to Lu Qian: "I'm going to deliver medicinal materials to Xiaofeng."

After all, he turned and went out.

Guo Tuan looked at Wang Zirong with an ambiguous expression, smiled "hehe" and said, "Do you want my help?"

……

...Early the next morning, before it was dark, someone knocked on the door.

Lu Qian was awakened from his sleep, frowned, and was a little unhappy.

I just heard someone say from outside the door: "Uncle Guo, we have a guest. He seems very anxious."

Guo Tuan rested his head on Lu Qian's right arm, yawned as usual and asked, "Who is he?"

The person outside the door said: "They claim their surname is Gu, and they will know it once they tell Uncle Guo."

Guo Tuo muttered lazily: "I'm late all night, I just came now."

After that, she turned to Lu Qian and whispered, "Will we meet them?"

Lu Qian took his left hand out from under Wang Zirong, yawned, and said: "From today on, we are just your followers. You go to see them. I will sleep for a while. I am really tired these days." ”

Guo Tuo curled his lips and said, "Big lazy idiot."

Zuo Qiuling, who was sleeping on the innermost side of the big bed, also said lazily: "They all know that I am a ghost and it is not appropriate to show my face during the day."

Guo shovel made a "cut" sound and had to get out of bed alone.

On the hangers beside the bed, four people's clothes and two human skins were hung.

Two human skins were placed on a rack made of wooden sticks. A head with a flat face drooped down, and its long black hair almost fell to the floor.

Guo Tuo got down from the bed with bare legs, first picked up his piece of human skin and put it on, then got dressed and went out.

A space immediately became vacant on the outside of the bed, making it more spacious.

Wang Zirong was obviously exhausted last night. She couldn't even open her eyes. She immediately turned her back, pushed Lu Qian outward, and continued to sleep.

Zuo Qiuling was not in trouble. When she saw Wang Zirong facing her, a smile immediately appeared on her face, she stretched out her hand and flicked her fingers.

"Hiss... don't make trouble..."

……

……

Lu Qian slept until three o'clock in the morning, and then he woke up when Guo Tuo came back.

Zuo Qiuling had already put on her human skin and went to prepare breakfast.

Guo Tuan walked to the bed and sat down, saying: "They encountered something on the way and delayed their time, so they arrived too late."

"Ah...ha..."

Lu Qian stretched and asked, "Did you meet another sect on the road and have a fight?"

According to what the waiter said last night, at least fifteen sect forces want to enter Lone Wolf Ridge at this time.

It can be imagined from this that there are countless people rushing to Quyang Town along the way.

There is only one way to go from Jinyang to Quyang Town.

It was perfectly normal for them to meet halfway.

Guo Tuo shrugged and said, "Maybe. They said they need to prepare a little more and go into the mountains tonight."

Lu Qian asked curiously: "Why do you have to wait until night to go into the mountains? Are you afraid that there are not enough ghosts in the mountains?"

Guo Tuo said: "Lone Wolf Ridge is very big. After entering the mountain, I won't be able to get out for three or two days. Meeting a ghost is inevitable, otherwise they wouldn't hire me to help with a lot of money."

All the Gu family are martial arts cultivators. If they encounter ghosts, they will be in trouble, so they will naturally need the help of warlocks.

While they were talking, someone knocked on the door again:

"Uncle Guo, your things have been delivered. Do you need us to move them into the room?"

From the sounds of the conversation, it was clear that the visitor was not from the inn.

Guo Shoun whispered: "This is the deposit I asked for from the Gu family."

After speaking to Lu Qian, she raised her voice and said, "Bring it in."

This guest room is an inner and outer room, separated by a flower wall covered with a gauze curtain.

Through the gauze curtain, you can see the outside through the gap in the flower wall.

The door was pushed open, and a group of well-dressed men carried three large wooden boxes, placed them on the ground, and then exited the room.

Guo Tuo said: "Let's go and take a look. I even specially selected a gift for you."

……

Unexpectedly, Guo Tuo is still a careful person.

The first big box contained not only half the box of gold and silver, but also a lot of jewelry and precious rouge and gouache.Women can use all these things.

The second box contained a whole box of clothes and several weapons.

Guo Tuo took out a beautifully decorated sword with a large blue gem inlaid on the hilt, handed it to Lu Qian, and said: "What the Gu family is best at is making weapons. This Longxiang Sword, although it is not It is a magical weapon, but its strength and sharpness are better than ordinary magical weapons.

Although you have a paper spirit, this sword can at least be used for self-defense. "

Lu Qian nodded, reached out to take the sword, and pulled it out of its sheath with a "choking" sound.

The body of the three-finger-wide sword flashed with blue light; as soon as the sword came out of the body, a chilling air emitted.

Seeing this scene, Lu Qian's eyes suddenly lit up:
"It really is a good sword."

"anything else……"

Guo Shoun opened his clothes and picked out two black waistcoats.

These two waistcoats are all black and shiny, and they are not ordinary at first glance.

Guo Tu said: "This is the Celestial Silkworm Armor. It can be worn inside. It is invulnerable to bullets and fire, and it is priceless."

After saying that, she turned to look at Wang Zirong standing aside and said, "I'm sorry, they only got these two items and couldn't get them for you."

Paper brides don't need to wear armor. Guo Tui meant that these two pieces of silkworm armor were naturally prepared for Lu Qian and Xiaofeng.

Wang Zirong smiled and said, "It doesn't matter."

Lu Qian picked up a piece of silkworm armor and looked at it, then smiled and said, "The Gu family still spent a lot of money this time."

These three boxes of stuff are actually just a "deposit".

Guo Tuan smiled "hehe" and said, "How can I, Guo Tuan, be invited without a big courtesy?"

Lu Qian held the Celestial Silkworm Armor in his hand and looked at it for a while, then suddenly threw it to Wang Zirong.

Wang Zirong subconsciously took the Heavenly Silkworm Armor into her hand and was stunned.

Even Guo Tu looked at Lu Qian in surprise.

When traveling in the world, for many people, armor is even more important than weapons.

Lu Qian didn't want it?

Lu Qian stretched out his hand to pull the hem of his clothes and said with a smile, "I have the Mingguang Armor, so I don't need this anymore."

The two women looked at the Mingguang paper armor worn under Lu Qian's robe and said, "Armor made of paper?"

They saw Lu Qian wearing a paper armor under his clothes last night. Although they thought it was strange, they didn't bother to ask more.

Lu Qian smiled and said, "It looks like it's made of paper, but it's actually no worse than your Celestial Silkworm Armor. You can keep it."

Although Lu Qian said this, Wang Zirong was still greatly moved.

Who can have too much protective armor?

Wang Zirong held the Celestial Silkworm Armor in her hand and wanted to return it to Lu Qian. She opened her mouth and said, "I..."

Lu Qian didn't wait for her to say anything, then looked back at the third box, interrupted Wang Zirong's words, and asked Guo Tuan, "What's in here?"

Since Lu Qian had already decided to give the Celestial Silkworm Armor to Wang Zirong, Guo Tuo naturally wouldn't say anything.

The third box is taller and larger than the first two.

Guo Tu pointed at the box and said with a smile: "The things inside are even more important."
