Chapter 76
Peng Ku took out five crystal-clear jade from the pure white linen clothes, and said:

"In order to express my apology, I borrowed a sum of money from the engineer and Yuwei's family as compensation. I only hope that Ms. Zhao can persuade Ms. Zheng to accept Xiang'er and Yue'er as substitutes."

Zhao Qing guessed that these five jade stones were mostly jade coins worth more than gold, and they should be Xuanyu worth a hundred gold.

She used the Crane Control Skill to volley in the air, and five Xuanyu came into her hand.If the five hundred gold were exchanged for the currency of the previous life, it is estimated that there would be nearly a hundred million.I have to say that the texture of jade is reassuring.

But there is no need to do persuasion, after all, I didn't promise Peng Ku anything.

Seeing Zheng Dan, Zhao Qing didn't even accept his "sincerity", Peng Kui's face changed, and he looked at Duanmu Shuliang beside him, but saw that his eyes were slightly squinted and his face was expressionless, and he couldn't help but feel a little bit of a panic in his heart. Shen.

"Miss Zheng, the blood-red sword energy you slashed yesterday carried the heat of incinerating all directions. You should be practicing fire-type kung fu?"

Zheng Dan nodded. This kind of thing is obvious at first sight, and there is nothing to hide.

"The ancestor of our Peng family is a branch of the Zhurong family, which has a long history. It is derived from the surname of Zhurong's eight surnames. He has extraordinary attainments in the fire system."

Peng Kui continued: "Miss Zheng has such cultivation at such a young age, and her inheritance is obviously higher than that of my Peng family. However, although the Peng family's exercises have little effect on you, some precious materials and medicines should still be There are some benefits.

"At present, my family has a few treasures that can improve the progress of practice. For the safety of Miss Zheng's daughter, I decided to donate it, and I hope that several people will accept it."

As soon as he finished speaking, he beckoned, and several servants who were waiting on the side immediately understood, and walked quickly to the back of the hall.

Zhao Qing was not surprised that the distant ancestor of the Peng family involved the legendary Zhu Rong family.

As the so-called descendants of Yan and Huang, people with names and surnames in the world can trace their bloodlines back to those famous ancient powers.

She looked at Ji Menglin, who had collapsed under the pressure and was crying in Zheng Dan's arms, but she saw that Peng Cu didn't even look at her daughter.

So, treasures are more valuable than daughters, right?
Although she had already speculated about the ancient values, after witnessing such a "family relationship" that is very different from modern society, there was still a little rippling in her heart.

Fortunately, in addition to people like Peng Gu, there is another person who raised her mother Ruixi and Zheng Dan who took care of her younger sister, which made Zhao Qing feel relieved.

And a Confucian businessman like Duanmu Shuliang is quite good in morals, which is quite different from treacherous people like Peng Gu and Xu Shiliu.

It has to be said that although Confucianism appears to be backward in later generations, it is indeed considered an "advanced" good idea in this era.Of course, this does not refer to Confucianism, which later deteriorated.

Confucius and his disciples did what they knew they could not do, and they fought for their ideals all their lives, traveled around the world, and promoted the ideas of "rule by virtue", "benevolence, righteousness, and propriety".

Zhao Qing didn't think Confucius was an extraordinary "sage", but he was undoubtedly an admirable sage.

……

After a while, Peng Kui took over a beautiful white porcelain bottle from his servant, and introduced it to everyone:

"This is a bottle of Fire Aperture Pill, with a total of twelve pills. Each pill uses dozens of medicinal materials to fuse a ray of fire energy. The medicinal power is mild and does not hurt the body. , Blood Qi Circulation' pass is one of the best medicines."

"This medicine is not only beneficial to the cultivation of yang energy, but also has a certain effect on energy transformation and even the way of refining qi. It can be called a family heirloom in my family."

Duanmu Shuliang stared at the vase for a moment, then said to Peng Kuo:

"Twenty-five years ago, someone auctioned a hundred bottles of high-grade Huoqiao Pills in Wushe Gorge, and sold them for tens of thousands of gold. Presumably the source of that batch of Huoqiao Pills was someone from your clan."

Wushe Gorge is a narrow and rapid area of ​​Ruoxie River. It is rumored that hundreds of years ago, a great master Yu Wushe slashed his enemies here and razed more than a dozen nearby hills to the ground. named.

There is also another saying that this "no wade" refers to the fact that the water here is too fast to wade to the other side.

For some reason, hundreds of years later, Wushe Gorge has become a place where an auction meeting is held every six months. It is so famous that someone built a small city beside it.

After reminiscing for a while, Peng Zhu then replied: "Our Peng family encountered a great chaos that year. A young expert who was favored by the elders of the clan betrayed the family and fled to Kuaiji Mountain with a large number of cheat books and resources."

"In order to make up for the loss caused by this turmoil, the clan had to sell hundreds of bottles of Huoqiao Pill at a low price to maintain our Peng clan's power."

Duanmu Shuliang showed a look of surprise, he had an impression of the young master of the Peng family who had rebelled and fled.

His name is Peng Yu, and he has completed the last test of Huajin before he was 30 years old. It is said that he is expected to enter the realm of six qi, and he is in-law with one of the great-granddaughters of Sima Shimai, the former governor of Yue State. Sima's hope.

After Shimai caused turmoil in the army and was killed by Goujian, Peng Yu, his wife and children feared that they would be implicated, and fled to the mountains.

But in fact, for the sake of Shi Ling's son-in-law Ling Gufu, Gou Jian did not overly implicate members related to the Shi family. Peng Yu's actions made him lose his official position in vain and was abandoned by the family.

For this kind of elixir that can really improve his strength, Zheng Dan calmly accepted it.This is Peng Kuo's due compensation.

Looking at Zheng Dan who accepted the elixir calmly, a look of heartache appeared on Peng Kui's face, and he said in a deep voice:

"Not just a bottle of elixir, Peng is also going to present a pair of fire copper armor that is treasured at home. Every leaf of this armor is made of thousand-year-old fire copper, which contains the energy of fire, and it is effective against water attributes. Extrajudicial attacks have strong defenses."

"Miss Zheng, although the fire-bronze armor may not fit that well, I hope you can accept it. Compared with some discomfort on your body, your own safety is more important."

"Is there only one?" Zheng Dan gave Ji Menglin a hug, separated from her, smiled slightly at Peng Gu, and said, "There is also the Huoqiao Pill just now. If you have more, give it to Ah Qing." Come some too."

As expected of Miss Zheng Dan, Zhao Qing blinked at such sharp words.

"There is really only one piece of Fire Bronze Armor. As for the Fire Aperture Pill, there is still half a bottle. Originally, I planned to keep it for my younger son. If Miss Zheng needs it, I will ask someone to take it."

Peng Kui turned his head, a stern look flashed in the corner of his eyes, and he ordered his servants to get the fire bronze armor and the elixir.
