The days when I opened a tavern in Zongwu

Chapter 124 Bai Xiaosheng

As the man wearing the ghost mask fell to the ground without making a sound, the remaining people in Qingyi Tower looked at each other.

Then, a killer from Qingyi Building said: "Seventeenth Floor, Jia Sanqi."

As soon as the voice fell, other Qingyi Tower killers spoke out one after another.

"Eighty-fifth floor, A31"

"Thirty-two floors, A, 2, and 3."

"Fifty-fifth floor, A31"

Listening to the words spoken by the Qingyi Tower killers below, Lianxing immediately thought of the Qingyi Tower token brought back by the Yihua Palace disciples after the Zhongyi Gang was wiped out.

Immediately explained: "Sister, they should be reporting their identities in Qingyi Tower now."

"identity?"

Facing what Lian Xing said, Yao Yue raised her eyebrows slightly, vaguely guessing the purpose of the assassins of Qingyi Tower below.

A few breaths later, after a Qingyi Building killer said "Ninth floor, A one by one", the other Qingyi Building killers around him fell silent.

After scanning the surrounding area, the Qingyi Tower killer said, "According to the original plan."

Until now, Yao Yue and Lian Xing were so smart that they didn't understand that these Qing Yi Towers were deciding who would temporarily take over the command from the man wearing the ghost mask based on their status.

"If the killer dies during the mission, will someone else with a higher number take over the command?"

"This Qingyi Building is indeed a bit interesting."

Within the canyon.

As the voice fell, several Qingyilou killers carrying a package on their backs squatted on the ground one after another and put the packages on their backs on the ground to open them.

But I saw that these packages contained boxes one after another.

After these boxes were taken out, some Qingyi Tower killers took the initiative to step forward, each holding a box and walking towards Wei Wuya and other corpses belonging to the twelve zodiac signs.

After a while, as the heads of Wei Wuya and others were all put into the boxes, the killers from Qingyi Building stepped forward and lined up the boxes containing the heads on the ground.

Suddenly, the Qingyi Tower killer with the identity of "Jia Yiyi" suddenly used Qinggong and moved towards the other side of the valley.

When he was still three feet away from the entrance of the valley, the Qingyilou killer "Jia Yiyi" quickly pulled out his saber with his right hand and slashed at the mountain walls on both sides of the valley entrance.

The two knife shadows broke through the space and chopped off large pieces of gravel from the mountain wall.

However, when the gravel fell and the dust filled the air, the two iron boxes fell together with the gravel.

With the surrounding dust as a background, Yao Yue and Lian Xing could also see wisps of white smoke rising from the two iron boxes.

Seeing this, the two women immediately thought of the "black dragon cartilage smoke" that Wei Wuya had mentioned before.

After destroying the trap at the entrance of the valley, the Qingyilou killer named "Jia Yiyi" returned to the middle of the canyon.

While moving quickly, he said in a voice: "The task has been completed as required. The person responsible for handling the corpse will take Jia Lingjiu's corpse and withdraw."

When the voice fell, the Qingyi Tower killer named "Jia Yiyi" had already moved out of the canyon.

One of them dodged to the side of Wei Wuya's corpse, grabbed the clothes of the man wearing the ghost face mask with one hand, and then dodged and flew out of the canyon.

The others quickly followed.

In just a dozen breaths, these assassins from Qingyi Tower all withdrew from Sunset Gorge and moved towards the distance.

Only eleven headless corpses were left in the Sunset Gorge.

Looking at the Qingyi Tower killers who were quickly walking away, and recalling the reactions of these people just now, Yao Yue's expression condensed slightly.

"The arrangements are so thorough. This Qingyi Building is not as miserable as I thought."

Hearing this, Lianxing also nodded slightly.

Tsing Yi Tower is not the only killer organization in the world.

Lian Xing has encountered other killer organizations performing tasks before.

Although it's not a mess, it's not much better.

But these people in Qingyi Building, since they reported their identity numbers in Qingyi Building before, it is enough to show that these people do not know each other's identities.

But after the death of the killer who is the commander, he can immediately choose a new commander to continue doing the next thing.

This alone is not something that ordinary killer organizations can come up with.

At this time, an elder from Yihua Palace quickly moved over from a distance.

When he moved in front of Yao Yue and Lian Xing, the elder knelt down on one knee.

"Reporting to the First Palace Master and the Second Palace Master, all the rats in the palace have been captured."

Listening to the elder's words, Yao Yue asked, "How many were caught?"

"Thirteen."

The elder of Yihua Palace responded without thinking.

Hearing this number, Yao Yue's face turned cold.

"These thirteen people will definitely not be all the informants. They will secretly send all the people to Baihua Prison for torture. With the help of these thirteen people, all the other informants will be pulled out."

"I obey my orders."

As soon as the voice fell, the Yihua Palace elder stood up and took a few steps back, then jumped forward and walked quickly towards the Xiuyu Valley.

"Sister, do you want me to go back and preside over the interrogation so that I can find out other people in the palace who have slipped through the net?"

In the past, Yaoyue might have directly agreed to Lianxing's offer.

But today, as soon as Lianxing finished speaking, Yaoyue rejected Lianxing's proposal.

"Need not!"

Then, before Lianxing could continue to speak, Yaoyue took the lead and said, "In another quarter of an hour, the team transporting medicinal materials from Yihua Palace will arrive at the Sunset Gorge."

"When you arrive, you go to Hanshan City with those people. I will leave in a few days after I finish handling the situation in the palace."

Lian Xing did not expect that Yaoyue would suddenly ask him to return to Hanshan City. He was stunned for a moment before he responded: "You can move to the Flower Palace."

As if knowing what Lian Xing wanted to say next, Yao Yue directly interrupted Lian Xing's words.

"I will naturally solve the problems in Yihua Palace."

Yao Yue was basically certain that Huang Xuemei had fallen in love with Li Changqing.

When she thought of Huang Xuemei facing Li Changqing day and night alone in Li Changqing's yard, Yao Yue felt uneasy.

And now that the twelve horoscopes have been resolved, the issue of the eyeliner in Yihua Palace will be resolved soon.

Rather than letting Lianxing stay in Yihua Palace, it would be better to let Lianxing go back to Hanshan City to help him look after Huang Xuemei.

"When you return to Hanshan City, you will tell him what happened today in detail."

After saying that, Yao Yue turned around and stepped out with her hands behind her back, and her body suddenly turned into a shadow and appeared ten feet away.

In just one breath, he had already disappeared from Lian Xing's sight.

As Yao Yue left, the elders of Yihua Palace who were also hidden in the surroundings successively circulated their true energy and moved in the direction of Yao Yue's departure.

The only two elders from Yihua Palace walked slowly to Lian Xing and bowed slightly.

"According to the order of the Grand Palace Master, we are asked to follow the Second Palace Master to Hanshan City."

Hearing this, Lianxing didn't know that Yaoyue had already made arrangements.

As before, from beginning to end, I had no intention of discussing it with myself.

Just decide for yourself.

There is a vague feeling of domineering.

But today, facing Yao Yue's domineering style, Lian Xing not only did not feel the slightest discomfort, but instead felt inexplicably comfortable.

In response, Lianxing nodded and took a few steps forward to look in the direction of Hanshan City.

As the anticipation in his eyes grew, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

In the afternoon, it's three o'clock.

Maybe it's because the sunshine is just right today, or maybe Li Changqing has used a lot of his brain power these past two days while thinking about "Tianlong Bayin" and "Abi Dao Three Swords".

After asking Huang Rong to watch inside the tavern, Li Changqing adjusted his sleeping position and continued to enjoy the sunbath.

Seeing Li Changqing still lying on the chair, Huang Xuemei beside her was also lying leisurely on the chair.

From time to time, he turned his head and looked at Li Changqing, who had his eyes closed. He felt that the sunshine was warm today and the wind was noisier, making people's hearts revive like spring buds.

However, just when Li Changqing was gradually feeling sleepy, Huang Rong, who had just been sent to the tavern by Li Changqing, actually returned to the inner courtyard.

"Hey! Wan Sanqian and the Phantom Ancestor are here. In addition, there is an additional old man coming to the tavern today."

Hearing this, Li Changqing, who had his eyes closed, slowly opened them.

"There's an extra old man? With Wan Sanqian and the others?"

Huang Rong shook her head and said, "We're not sitting at the same table. It doesn't look like we're sitting together." "Oh?"

Li Changqing suddenly became interested, and then slowly sat up from the chair.

After stretching, he stood up and walked towards the tavern.

I don't know if she was interested in the phantom ancestor. When Li Changqing got up and walked towards the tavern, Huang Xuemei did not stay in the courtyard to practice as usual, but followed Li Changqing.

Not long after, as the three of them entered the tavern, they glanced around. After coming into contact with Wan Sanqian, Li Xunhuan and the Phantom Ancestor, they finally stopped at a table near Zhou Yong.

Looking at the old man who was tasting wine and eating peanuts with his back to the wall, Li Changqing quickly searched his mind, but could not find any information related to the old man in his memory.

"Shopkeeper Li."

Before Li Changqing could think too much, more than 3,000 people also saw the three of Li Changqing entering the tavern from the back door.

Hearing this, Li Changqing gathered his thoughts and walked towards the thirteen thousand people with a smile.

As Li Changqing just sat down, Huang Xuemei and Huang Rong sat at another table next to them.

After picking up the wine glass handed over by Wan Sanqian, Li Changqing glanced at the table.

In front of Wan Sanqian, there was not only an antique wooden box, but also a package on top of it.

Even from a slight distance, Li Changqing could smell the medicinal scent coming from the package.

Noticing Li Changqing's gaze at this time, Wan Sanqian pushed the wooden box and package towards Li Changqing.

"According to Shopkeeper Li's request, the medicines have been collected. Shopkeeper Li can check them out."

However, Li Changqing did not check what Wan Sanqian pushed over, but looked at Wan Sanqian with interest.

Facing Li Changqing's gaze, the smile on Wan Sanqian's face did not diminish.

"Shopkeeper Li, what do you want to say?"

Facing Wan Sanqian's question, Li Changqing smiled softly.

After drinking the drink, he said slowly: "Since the old man is also Boss Shen's friend, why would Boss Shen let the old man sit at a table alone?"

When the voice reached his ears, Wan Sanqian's expression froze, revealing a look of confusion.

Li Xunhuan in the tavern couldn't help but turn his head and glance at the old man sitting against the wall, a look of doubt flashing in his eyes.

Li Changqing said in a gentle voice: "Boss Shen, as a businessman, pays attention to everything. From these few interactions, I can deeply feel that Boss Shen is thorough in everything he does."

"Since Boss Shen can collect all these medicinal materials, he should know the value of these medicines."

"I won't say it's priceless, but even if I put it in the capital, it would be enough to buy a whole street."

"But even children understand the principle of keeping wealth secret, let alone a businessman like Boss Shen. If we weren't acquainted, how could we directly take out these medicines for inspection in front of a stranger?"

As soon as these words came out, Wan Sanqian was startled for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Master Li is really as careful as his hair."

However, when he said this, Wan Sanqian's face showed a little bit of pride, without any embarrassment after being exposed by Li Changqing.

Immediately afterwards, Wan Sanqian turned his head and looked at the old man leaning against the wall and said, "I said before, Shopkeeper Li may be as thoughtful as you. I'm willing to admit defeat. Don't forget it."

As the voice came out, the old man not far away said with a smile: "If you don't know someone well, you should lose. I've been tricked by you."

As he spoke, the old man walked towards Li Changqing.

Wan Sanqian, who was sitting comfortably, moved his buttocks to the bench where Li Xunhuan was sitting.

But he was making room for the old man.

A few breaths later, as the old man approached, he raised his hands and cupped his fists, and said with a smile: "I couldn't resist Boss Shen and was forced to take a gamble. I hope Shopkeeper Li won't be surprised."

Li Changqing said with a smile: "It's a small gamble to make me happy, not to mention I won't lose anything, so it doesn't matter."

After speaking, Li Changqing slowly picked up the wine bottle on the table and refilled the old man next to him with a glass of wine.

"Speaking of which, I have to thank the assassin from Qingyi Building who my senior arranged four days ago to deliver the letter. Otherwise, I'm afraid the people around me will encounter some trouble."

Bai Xiaosheng's eyes flickered, he twisted his beard and smiled and said: "This matter was originally an oversight by our Hanjiang Alliance, and sending the letter is just one of the ways to apologize."

As soon as the words came out, Wan Sanqian, Li Xunhuan and Phantom Ancestor next to him all looked confused.

Huang Xuemei and Huang Rong, who were sitting at the table next to them, changed their expressions and looked at the old man sitting next to Li Changqing.

Three words suddenly popped into my mind.

"Bai Xiaosheng?"

Here, facing what Li Changqing said, Bai Xiaosheng smiled softly and said: "Shopkeeper Li's thoughts are indeed far beyond others. If I were at Shopkeeper Li's age, it would be difficult for me to think as much as Shopkeeper Li. .”

Li Changqing smiled and said: "Senior is just being humble."

Looking at Li Changqing and the old man who were smiling at each other, Wan Sanqian couldn't help but ask: "Have you two known each other before?"

Li Changqing responded: "It's the first time I've seen him, but I've been fascinated by him for a long time."

Wan Sanqian raised his eyebrows.

Then he looked at Bai Xiaosheng in confusion and said, "What did you do before that made shopkeeper Li know you were Bai Xiaosheng the first time he met you?"

When the words "Bai Xiaosheng" came out, Zhou Yong, who was sitting at the door, suddenly paused while raising his glass.

When he looked at Bai Xiaosheng, who was sitting at the same table as Li Changqing, his eyes shrank sharply.

However, no one in the tavern paid much attention to Zhou Yong's reaction.

Regarding what Wan Sanqian said, Bai Xiaosheng shook his head: "It's just other forces secretly fanning the flames."

Seeing that Bai Xiaosheng didn't explain clearly, Wan Sanqian didn't continue to ask.

After Bai Xiaosheng finished speaking, he smiled at Li Changqing and slowly started eating the peanuts.

"Ha! Old fox."

After chuckling in his heart, Li Changqing opened the wooden box and package that he had just pushed over.

After checking it, Li Changqing nodded.

"There is nothing wrong with the medicine and the dosage. After I take care of it, I can treat Boss Xu tomorrow."

Wan Sanqian said with a smile: "In that case, Shen will come to bother shopkeeper Li again tomorrow."

Li Changqing nodded gently and said, "Okay."

When more than 13,000 people stood up, Bai Xiaosheng also cupped his hands to Li Changqing and said: "In that case, I will come back to bother you tomorrow."

"Senior, walk slowly."

Li Changqing responded politely.

After nodding to Huang Xuemei and Huang Rong respectively, Bai Xiaosheng left with more than 13,000 people.

As several people left, Huang Xuemei and Huang Rong, who were sitting at the table next to them just now, moved to sit next to Li Changqing.

However, when she sat down, Huang Xuemei first glanced at Zhou Yong at the door, then looked at Li Changqing and signaled with her eyes.

Knowing what Huang Xuemei meant, Huang Rong did not speak in a hurry, but waited for Li Changqing's answer.

Knowing what they meant, Li Changqing shook his head gently and said, "It doesn't matter."

Seeing this, Huang Rongcai asked: "Is the one just now really Bai Xiaosheng?"

Li Changqing picked up the wine glass and took a sip, then said slowly: "What else?"

After getting the confirmation from Li Changqing, Huang Rong couldn't help but said in surprise: "It is said that Bai Xiaosheng Shenlong has never seen its head and tail. Few people in the Jianghu know its traces and true appearance. I didn't expect to meet him here in Hanshan City today."

Compared to Huang Rong who was amazed at Bai Xiaosheng, Huang Xuemei's considerations were obviously different.

"Since Bai Xiaosheng and Wan Sanqian know each other, does it mean that Wan Sanqian disclosed your information to Bai Xiaosheng?"

Li Changqing said softly: "The current situation looks like this."

Huang Xuemei said in a slightly serious tone: "No wonder Hanjiang City has developed so rapidly in recent years. It turns out that there are thirteen thousand people supporting it."

Twenty years ago, Hanjiang Alliance was not one of the four major alliances, and its name was also Hanjiang City.

When Hanjiang City was first established, it was just a small city that could accommodate ten or twenty thousand people.

But in the past few years, it has developed into a large city that can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people.

Nowadays, it has become an important commercial place west of the Ming Dynasty.

It is said that a small shop in Hanjiang City is worth hundreds of gold.

It should be noted that whether it is Baihua City in Yihua Palace or cities near other top powers, it took decades or even hundreds of years to slowly develop and expand.

Even the Zhenwu City of the Wudang Sect developed rapidly after Zhang Sanfeng returned to the mountain after slaying the devil.

Until now, it has taken almost thirty years to reach the point where it can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people.

It is conceivable how fast Hanjiang City is developing?

Many forces have also entered Hanjiang City to inquire secretly, but found nothing. This also makes people all over the world secretly wonder.

Now that she knows the relationship between Bai Xiaosheng and Wan Sanqian, Huang Xuemei doesn't know what's going on.
