Longevity: Beginning from Becoming a Clan Leader

Chapter 245 Meeting, Concealment, Haze

"genius!"

"He is indeed a genius!"

In the clean and spacious Chen Mansion, there are servants everywhere.

Qiu Yishan looked at the young man in front of him with his heart beating wildly. Feeling the inexplicable power, the corners of his mouth twitched and he was speechless.

Beside him, Fang Zeming, who had always been arrogant and domineering, frowned deeply, not knowing what he was thinking.

And on the opposite side.

Dressed in black and gold robes, Chen Nuo lifted the steaming purple clay pot in his hand and poured it into the cyan sandstone cup.

As the mist evaporates, there is a light but irresistible fragrance that is refreshing.

"You two, why don't you sit down and have a drink?"

Chen Nuo raised his glass and smiled.

"Then, I would rather be respectful than obey your orders."

Qiu Yishan smiled calmly, glared at Fang Zeming sideways, and then took his seats on the left and right.

"You two have traveled all the way and come here to Tianhe County. What's the matter?" Chen Nuo asked straight to the point.

Qiu Yishan glanced at Chen Nuo and recalled what happened in the past two days, especially the smooth journey when entering Tianhe County. He introduced himself first, "I am a businessman from the south. Your Excellency calls me Yishan." Just fine.”

"As for the purpose of coming here, I believe you also know our origins."

Chen Nuo was noncommittal and said nothing.

"We are here mainly because we have a business we want to do with you."

Chen Nuo looked Qiu Yishan up and down.

Qiu Yishan smiled and said, "Fur, mountain products, herbs, wood, everything you need."

"Haha, I don't know much about these business matters. Why don't I, the elder in charge of this matter, Chen Nuo, come to discuss it with you." Chen Nuo suddenly said.

With a twitch of eyebrows, Qiu Yishan quickly realized that he couldn't play the test anymore. The other party didn't seem to accept this trick.

Is there such a big difference between Kyushu's rules and regulations now and what is written in the book?

"slow."

"To be honest, my tribe has been short of salt recently, and here in Yuezhou, I have searched all over the river, and only you can find salt for sale here, so I want to trade salt with each other through trade." Qiu Yishan showed a sincere smile.

"I just didn't tell you the truth because I was too concerned about the tribe. I'm extremely sorry."

Chen Nuo smiled and said, "No, I can forgive you."

"As for the salt, everything can be discussed. Even in the south, we can sell it, but in terms of price..."

"It's easy to say, we can exchange it with other goods."

After some conversation, the topic always revolved around trade.

Qiu Yishan did not mention letting Chen Nuo join them.

Chen Nuo never asked in depth.

until……

"Master Chen, are you interested in really cooperating with us?"

A voice pierced a piece of paper.

Fang Zeming looked at Chen Nuo expressionlessly, his eyes filled with fighting spirit and fear.

Qiu Yishan's face changed, he raised his hand and gave Fang Zeming a slap in the face, turned around and said with a smile, "I hope you can forgive me, this kid has been used to it since he was a child..."

Chen Nuo: "Really cooperate? What do you want to do?"

"Now there are wars everywhere in Yuezhou. Only your Hexia County is still relatively stable, but there is no food in other places. Sooner or later, they will target you. The head of the Chen family should also know that in troubled times, it is a crime to have a treasure, and food is The greatest original sin.”

"It just so happens that we need a trading port to obtain salt, cloth, tea bricks, etc., and we are absolutely powerful enough. As long as you follow our arrangements, you will be safe and make a lot of money. How about that?"

Fang Zeming didn't behave like an immature boy at this moment. Instead, he spoke eloquently and well-founded.

Qiu Yishan's face was angry, but his raised palms never really fell down.

Chen Nuo watched the two people's performances with interest and had no intention of stopping them.

At the same time, I also had some guesses about the real purpose of the two coming.

Sorting out the available information: this group of barbarians is very elite, and he does not believe that their identity will be simple; they set out from the mountains, indicating that they chose to hide their purpose at the beginning; they went to a mountain in the central hills, and what? It is related to the God of Taiyue. He suddenly returned, but he took the official route and tried to contact me, Chen. The reason was to trade salt, tea bricks and other items.

The turning point of everything was Taiyue God. The mountain they went to and the things they did made them decide to come here.

trade?

Maybe it's partly true.

But perhaps what I want more is to take control of myself.

The barbarians want me to be a spy? !

This is the conclusion Chen Nuo came to. As for any real cooperation, it is all a pretense.

"No, aren't we just cooperating now?"

"About this matter, maybe we can find a time and place to have a good talk."

Chen Nuo said.

Fang Zeming was anxious and wanted to say something, but Qiu Yishan stood up and said, "Okay, our tribe also needs to prepare some goods. How about we discuss it in the canine tooth ditch in the wasteland in the middle of next month?"

The wasteland, with Chen Nuo's strength, is not too far from the Huangquan Forest. It is an intermediate place, and it is indeed a very good place.

Chen Nuo readily agreed.

Afterwards, Chen Nuo arranged food and accommodation for them.

Watching the two people exit, Chen Nuo took a sip of tea.

Chen Nuo believed what the two of them had just said. After all, the matter about the granary in Hexia County was true, but this did not mean that what he said was correct.

Why, can we stay safe by cooperating with this barbarian?

I'm afraid it's not like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.

All in all, the barbarians have no good intentions.

However, they should indeed be targeting him.

Chen Nuo probably guessed what they were thinking.

The barbarians want to secretly control Hexia County, and as the gatekeeper of the southern part of Hexia, they are the trouble they need to solve urgently.

As for what to do after taking control...

Chen Nuo couldn't figure it out, but he had an ominous premonition. After all, he remembered that Ouyang said that they were going to the Southern Wilderness, where the former Zhenqi forces existed... and Taoist Priest Qingxu also said that the Southern Wilderness There are their comrades...

So, could it be those Zhenqi forces...

Shaking his head, there is no conclusive evidence, it is just his own guess now.

"Oh, another trouble."

However, Chen Nuo also understood that the outcome of this matter would depend on the negotiations in the middle of next month.

In addition, you also need to make some preparations.

…

In the room, Qiu Yishan first checked the room.

Then he looked at Fang Zeming and lectured, "Okay, don't hold it in, you did a good job just now, but what else do you want to say in the end? Too much is not enough, it's not like you haven't felt the power of this person. Such a person, If we have to force it, I’m afraid we won’t be able to get out of this door.”

Fang Zeming was speechless.

He really wanted to scare the other party, but after hearing what his elder brother said and thinking of the power he had just felt, he suddenly felt a little scared.

"Brother, do you think this can be successful?"

"I don't know, but this is none of our business. We have done what we can, and then it's up to the sect leader to decide."

"oh."

Fang Zeming curled his lips. He felt that something was going to happen. He heard from his father that the sect leader and the others had no idea what they were arguing about all day long. How could they cooperate sincerely...

"However, I hope it can succeed. At least this way, I won't have to watch such a family that manages the place die."

Qiu Yishan looked at the door, inexplicably filled with pity.

…

soon.

Qiu Yishan and others ended their journey. After bidding farewell to Chen Nuo and others, they headed south with some goods.

Chen Nuo watched them leave, called Chen Xiang, and whispered a few words.

A few days passed.

Qiu Yishan and others finally crossed the center of the wasteland.

Because this wasteland is the place that separates Huangquan Forest and Hexia County, it is sparsely populated. The occasional people are mostly scavengers who are eyeing the remnants of the original war, or desperate people who were forced to flee by the great forces of Kyushu. People are living on their last legs.

night.

A thin white mist enveloped the neighborhood.

"who?!"

Qiu Yishan shouted loudly.

Masked men in black jumped out one after another, "Brother, if we kill these guys, we will have money to go back to Yuezhou!"

"I don't know? Shut up!"

"Boy, you have been poisoned by us now. If you don't want to die, then just keep your money and goods and get out. Otherwise, hum."

"Don't think about detoxification, we spent a lot of money to buy it from Poison Valley!"

"..."

"Hey! Talk!"

The surrounding barbarian guards were barely standing up. Their physiques were extraordinary. Even if they were poisoned, they could still stand up and have fighting ability, but obviously their fighting ability had been affected.

Seeing this, Qiu Yishan frowned, looked at the endless wilderness, and suddenly exhaled, "We are all back here, so there is no need to endure it."

Fang Zeming, who was next to him and was eager to try, his eyes suddenly lit up and he looked at Qiu Yishan expectantly.

Qiu Yishan looked at the robbers indifferently, waved his palm lightly, and a burst of white true energy burst out of his body, turning into white jade-like sword energy and flying out.

"What kind of magic is this?!"

"The wind is so tight!"

"Run! Ah!"

"don't want……"

"Pfft!"

"..."

The zhenqi, which was as sharp as a white jade sword, was extremely sharp and easily slaughtered all the robbers in front of him.

Only blood was left everywhere.

If it blocks Qi and blood, is it possible that it can also block Zhenqi?

Qiu Yishan shook his head and looked at the guards, "Everyone is circulating their energy and blood. Recover quickly."

"Yes!" The barbarian guards, who had been silent all this time, spoke in barbarian language.

Fang Zeming next to him looked at Qiu Yishan with admiration, this is the eldest brother! Just wave your hand and kill them all!
