The Fairy: From the Traveling Merchant

Chapter 55

Zhao Chen wanted to ask a few more questions, but saw that the master was not interested, changed his usual "show off" style, and had no interest in talking about these things.

Maybe something happened to the master's friend, or maybe the master is sad that he can no longer fight side by side with the other party... Either way, mentioning it at this time is tantamount to revealing the scars of the master.

While thinking about it, Zhao Chen changed the topic "considerately" and said, "Master, the one who saved Chai Yugong just now is the 'Qinglian Sword' Li Fuyan who is number one in the 'Yumen Renjie List', right?"

This is also the only monk with supernatural powers on the "Yumen Outstanding Talent List".

It's not that Li Fuyan has only one "supernatural power" in the huge Yumen County, but that he is the only one under the age of 60.

At this time, Huang Xianjun also noticed that he was losing his composure in front of his apprentice, so while stroking his beard to adjust his mood, he nodded and said:

"The purple sword mixes with the red spirit, and the red light spits out the green lotus. It's a pity that the three-foot front, the delusion turns into floating smoke.

"This Li family supernatural power did not go to practice the 'Five Emperors Chaozhen Sword', but wanted to combine the Li family to obtain the fundamental skill "Qinglian Sword Song" before the 'Five Emperors Chaozhen' great supernatural power, in the 'Chidi Yangyuan On the basis of Jianqi', he walked out a new divine path on his own...

"Unfortunately, he succeeded, but he also failed."

"How to say?" Zhao Chen asked curiously.

The sword that the other party slashed at Wang Daoyi just now contained the intention of "Taibai Xing" to kill. Although he didn't attack with all his strength, Zhao Chen felt that without "Xingcha" to lock Wang Daoyi's blood, he would never be able to take it.

"It means that he managed to piece together a fourth-grade magical power 'Qinglian Floating Smoke Sword', but it is no better than the original fourth-grade magical power 'Qinglian Sword' of the Li family, and the cultivation conditions are extremely harsh. , no one else has succeeded." Huang Xianjun explained with a smile, "But even so, this kind of person who can find a new path by himself is also a genius."

No wonder there is a couplet in the title of his poem "It's a pity that the three-footed front, delusion turns into floating smoke"... I guess this senior is laughing at himself?

At this time, the two caravan members had already lifted up the box containing "Yan Hongxia" and started to disembark.

While staring at their movements, Zhao Chen casually asked, "What about the other female 'supernatural power'?"

"I don't know... Maybe it's from outside... Judging from its posture, there is a high probability that it is a disciple of the aristocratic family or the Shangzong who is traveling and practicing." Huang Xianjun knew what the disciple was paying attention to, so while speaking, he pulled him to follow the two Caravan men carrying boxes.

"When I was in Bingquan Town before, I heard that a distinguished heroine came to Yumen County, and was personally received by the deacon of the Li family..." Zhao Chen said thoughtfully.

This matter is still heard from the mouth of the servant Fengqu on the day of time travel.

The two master and apprentice got off the boat while chatting, and then each led a group of men through the bustling street from the pier to the city gate, and entered the city.

I haven't encountered the kind of scenes in ordinary storybooks where the gatekeepers eat what Naka wants.

Zhao Chen was still lamenting the cleanliness of the officials in Yumen County, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the blunderbuss team behind him, all equipped with guns, and it dawned on him.

After entering the city, the firearms team and the martial arts disciples escorted the goods and went straight to the west of the city, and finally stopped at the entrance of an alley called "Shenjing Lane" and entered a compound at the end of it.

This is one of the Zhao family's properties in the county, and now it is counted as the investment of the two companies to jointly develop the "Business Road" for the "Golden Dart Martial Art Museum" to settle down.

As the "house owner", Zhao Chen first chose an independent small courtyard as his residence, and then directed the caravan staff to carry the box containing "Yan Hongxia" into his bedroom.

Until then, he was slightly relieved.

But before he could transfer Sister Hongxia to the bed, the little servant Fengqu came to report:
"Master, shopkeeper Lin has come to see you and Master Huang."

Shopkeeper Lin's name is Lin Ruxiang, and he is another assistant arranged by his cheap father. He was sent to the county town to make a stand before.

"Understood." Zhao Chen nodded slightly, locked the box again, and came to the front hall with Feng Qu.

At this time, besides the owner Huang Xianjun and Senior Brother Feng Cang, there was also a woman in her 30s in the front hall.

The woman's hair is up, with light makeup, wearing a chest-length skirt and a jacket with small sleeves, highlighting the capable and mature "ancient business" style.

However, its eyebrows are too sharp, which intuitively gives people a feeling of "very powerful".

This is the shopkeeper Lin Ruxianglin who was hired by the original owner's mother to help her manage the dowry property.

Zhao Chen first saluted him briefly and called "Aunt Lin", then he seemed to sense that the atmosphere in the hall was not right, so he asked, "What happened?"

"There are indeed some things. We are listening to shopkeeper Lin explaining the reasons...Chen'er, come and listen to it too." Huang Xianjun didn't seem too nervous, just nodded and said.

But Senior Brother Feng said a little angrily: "It's about the Dunhuang 'trade route'... We may have been set up by the Chen family!"

"What's going on?" Zhao Chen asked quietly.

"Several escort agencies and martial arts clubs have taken a fancy to this 'trade route' and want to compete according to the 'rules of the rivers and lakes', and have invited the Yumen Chamber of Commerce to be a 'witness'...

"The Chen family probably gave it to us because they were unable to keep this business route." Shopkeeper Lin also felt helpless when he said this.

Although she is good at dancing, she can't do anything about "jianghu affairs". This is why the Zhao family needs to cooperate with the Golden Dart Martial Arts Academy.

The so-called "rules of the rivers and lakes" actually rely on martial arts to compete for the ownership of interests, but the losing party is not without any guarantee, at least they will get a lot of compensation.

Of course, Zhao Chen and others can also ignore this "rule", but correspondingly, they will be subject to many invisible constraints when doing business in Yumen in the future.

After listening to shopkeeper Lin's explanation, Zhao Chen frowned, looked at the master and said, "Do you think we should accept this challenge?"

"Of course I will take over." Huang Xianjun stroked his beard and smiled, and continued, "Even the Chen family has been able to keep the trade route for many years, so it can be seen that the forces fighting for it are not too strong, and my old bones should be able to handle it." come over.

"Also, I guess those forces will apply to ban firecrackers during the competition."

"Why?" Before Zhao Chen could ask, Senior Brother Feng asked in surprise.

"Since they are launching a challenge at this time, they must have inquired about the current situation of our Golden Dart Martial Arts School... Isn't the use of firecrackers closing the gap with us?" Master Huang said with a smile.

"That's right, they don't know that I can successfully 'build a foundation' within two or three days, and gain true energy through training, and they don't know that Junior Brother Zhao has already mastered the Twelve Classics a few days ago..." Senior Brother Feng's eyes lit up, Then he clasped his fists and said, "I have something to do...Master, I will apply to fight for you this time."

Zhao Chen was also a little eager to try. After all, he hadn't had a serious fight with anyone since he became a True Qi Realm, and the contest where the firecrackers were not allowed was not too dangerous, so it was just right.

And even if you lose, it doesn't matter. When Sister Hongxia wakes up, the big deal is to let those guys who talk about "rules of the rivers and lakes" know what "collusion between officials and businessmen" is.
