Refusing to ascend at the beginning

Chapter 34
Approaching Jiukui City, there were many more people on the deck than before. The merchants and their crews were all busy to unload their goods when they arrived, and the Cao family and others were also making preparations.

When Cao Bu and Chen Zhong saw that Su Han was also on the deck, they hurried over to greet them. After Cao Bu saluted, he went aside to help his crew.

In fact, he also wanted to chat with Su Han again and build a good relationship. In the second half of the process, he also put away all his gestures and treated Su Han with respect.

Although the latter did not punish him because he looked down on others, but after his hot face touched his cold butt many times, he realized that he had missed the opportunity to make friends with Su Han.

He has always regretted that he should not have looked down upon others, and should not have looked down upon Su Han because of his young age.

But what's the use? No matter how many regret medicines I take now, it's of no use.

On the contrary, Chen Zhong was able to say a few words to Su Han. At this time, he stood behind Su Han and said respectfully: "Master Su, we have successfully arrived at Jiukui City today. During this period, thanks to the protection of Master Su, ."

Su Han nodded and said after a moment of silence: "When facing the flying thieves before, Cao Bu made public the secret of the Cao family's knowledge of the place where the fairy grass grows. I am afraid that the Cao family will not be able to live in peace in the future."

Chen Zhong sighed: "Why did Master Suxian teach me?"

"While you and the disciples of the Qing Chi Sword Sect are still on the boat, go and make an offering agreement with the latter." Su Han said calmly, "Seek the protection of the Immortal Sect is your only way out."

Originally, Cao Bu told the matter in front of everyone so that Gao Jin and Liu Zuning could protect the Cao family in front of the flying thieves.

However, something unexpected happened later, Liu Zuning was seriously injured, and Gao Jin was restrained. Su Han became a blockbuster with a combination of punches, and the Cao family had no further communication with Gao Jin.

Chen Zhong nodded seriously and said: "What Master Su Xian said is absolutely true, but... this matter is of great importance. I can't decide it alone. I need to discuss it with Shopkeeper Cao before I can make a decision."

Su Han looked at the outline of Jiukui City in the distance and said calmly: "If you have money, you must also have the Flower of Life. If you miss Gao Jin and the others, it will be difficult for you to find the protection of a sect like the Qingxia Sword Sect in the future."

Chen Zhong was struggling in his heart. He lowered his head and pondered for a moment. When he raised his head again, he had made a decision.

"Thank you, Master Su Xian, for your suggestion." Chen Zhong saluted Su Regret in gratitude.

The former took out a heavy money bag from his pocket, and handed it to Su Regretfully: "This is the reward for this trip, Master Su Xianshi please accept it."

Su Xuan was not polite. When he took the money bag, he could feel its weight.

The Cao family is quite generous, but it is also true that this time the fairy grass successfully reaches Jiukui City, it will make a lot of money for them.

After Chen Zhong gave away the money bag, he went to Cao Bu to discuss communication with Gao Jin.

A quarter of an hour later, the merchant ship arrived over Jiukui City, and Su Han and Chen Chuyao could already see the bustling scene in the city.

Jiukui City is indeed the largest gold-selling cave in China. The city is several times larger than Yunwu City, and the buildings in the city are also quite unique.

The most eye-catching thing is that there are nine tall pavilions in the center of the city, which are much larger than the houses in the city.

If you want to come to that place, it is the land of "Ten Miles of Spring Breeze" that is so famous on the map. The tops of the nine tall pavilions correspond to the residences of the nine oirans.

Chen Chuyao looked at the huge city in front of her with wide eyes and was a little surprised. This was really the largest city she had ever seen in her life!
In particular, the nine magnificent tall pavilions in the center of the city aroused her great interest.

"Young master, after entering the city, where shall we go to see?" Chen Chuyao looked at the pavilion and said with some embarrassment.

Su Xuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you know where that place is?"

Under her hat, Chen Chuyao's face turned red and she said, "I know... I'm approaching Jiukui City these days. When I was taking a breath on the deck, I heard someone telling 'interesting stories' about Jiukui City..."

At the end of the story, her voice was as quiet as a mosquito, and she was embarrassed to continue talking.

"Now that you know it's a land of dust, you still want to go see it?"

"I also want to see what the nine most beautiful courtesans in Middle-earth look like..."

Su Han had no interest in courtesans. If he had time to visit a brothel, he might as well go to practice.

However, seeing that Chen Chuyao had temporarily come out of the haze of her parents' death, he did not bother her and agreed lightly.

Su Han thought for a moment and said, "But, you have to change into a male outfit."

Chen Chuyao hurriedly nodded in response, with a smile on her face.

While the two were talking, the merchant ship had already arrived at the anchorage of Jiukui City.

The port of Jiukui City was filled with more than a dozen merchant ships. The largest ship was twice as big as the one Su Han and his wife were riding on. It should be a large merchant ship numbered "A".

In addition, there are many small merchant ships and small boats coming and going in an endless stream, which is very lively.

After the merchant ship stopped, the merchants and their crews on the deck immediately became busy and began to unload the cargo and disembark.

As soon as the merchant ship stopped, a figure jumped on board.

It was a man in his forties, dressed in green, holding a folding fan in his hand, and with a faint smile on his lips, he glanced at the people on the boat.

Su Han's heart trembled slightly.

The visitor is a practitioner of the Three Realms, presumably from the Chamber of Commerce.

The man in green's eyes stayed on Su Han, and the two looked at each other for a moment.

Then he smiled at Su Regret, and went to the seventh floor of the boat building.

Su Han watched him thoughtfully as he boarded the boat building, and at this moment, escort leader Liu arrived.

The latter came here specifically to say goodbye to Su Han: "Master Su Xian, if you pass by Yunwu City in the future, don't forget to come to my Iron Hand Escort Agency. The previous acquaintance was abrupt and I couldn't fulfill my friendship as a landlord. It's a pity!"

Su Chen nodded with a smile. Although the two of them had some verbal friction when they met, after getting along, no matter how they behaved or how they behaved when facing flying robbers, he felt that Escort Liu was indeed a decent person.

Captain Liu saluted solemnly: "In this case, we will see you later, Master Su Xian."

Su Regret returned a salute: "There will be a time later, Chief Liu."

After Liu Biaotou left, a moment later, Dong Qizhi came, followed by the man in green who had just met him.

"Master Su Xian," Dong Qizhi greeted Su Han with a smile, and then introduced the man next to him, "This is the practitioner invited by the Chamber of Commerce to investigate Mr. Chen's matter - Master Huang Xian."

The man in green smiled and introduced himself: "Huang Kaoxin, nice to meet you."

"Su Han, nice to meet you."

Su Han never reaches out to hit anyone with a smiling face. As long as the other person is polite, he will treat him politely.

"Brother Su is in the second realm?" Huang Kaoxin didn't talk about Lao Chen. Instead, he was more interested in Su Han's realm, with a smile on his face and a gentle tone.

Su Han nodded, feeling slightly strange in his heart. This was different from what he imagined.

He originally thought that he would be challenged by the practitioners of the Chamber of Commerce, and was even prepared for a fight. Unexpectedly, Huang Kaoxin was quite kind.

Huang Kaoxin clapped his palms with a folding fan and praised: "To be able to kill Tong Mo is really a hero from a young boy."

Dong Qizhi explained to Su Regret from the side: "Tong Mo is the man in black beside Mr. Chen. Master Huang has just gone to see the corpses of Tong Mo and Mr. Chen, and also asked the crew on the ship and met Qing. Everyone has told the truth about the two disciples of the Chi Sword Sect."

Huang Kaoxin said: "Although there were rumors about Tong Mo and Mr. Chen who lowered their identities and committed flying robberies, there was no evidence. The Chamber of Commerce thought it was groundless. Fortunately, I met Brother Su this time. Otherwise, I don’t know how long it will take to ruin the reputation of our Chamber of Commerce. Well done.

"Brother Su, don't worry, the Chamber of Commerce will not pursue this matter." Huang Kaoxin smiled at Su Han, "On the contrary, the Chamber of Commerce is very interested in Brother Su. I wonder if Brother Su is willing to become a worshiper of the Chamber of Commerce?"

Su Han was stunned, but he didn't expect that the other party not only did not make things difficult for him, but also extended an olive branch to him.

This expected storm did not even blow in the end.

Su Han shook his head, rejected Huang Kaoxin's invitation, and said, "Thank you for your kindness. After our trip, we will go to Qingji Sword Sect."

Huang Kaoxin suddenly felt a little pity. Since Su Han aspired to the Immortal Sect, the invitation from the Chamber of Commerce was indeed not very attractive.

But he also knew that the Immortal Sect was not something you could just enter, so he said: "Since Brother Su has great ambitions, I won't insist on it. If Brother Su is still interested in this matter in the future, he can come to the Chamber of Commerce at any time to find out. I."

Huang Kaoxin exchanged some spiritual matters with Su Han again and prepared to leave.

Su Xuan suddenly asked: "Brother Huang, do you know Huang Yiyi?"

"Huang Yiyi?" Huang Kaoxin was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head, "It sounds familiar, but I don't know it."

Dong Qizhi, who was on the side, replied uncertainly: "Master Su Xian refers to the president of Mrs. Huang from 700 years ago?"

While thinking, he continued: "When I entered the chamber of commerce, I carefully read the chronicles of the chamber of commerce, seven or eight hundred years ago, the chamber of commerce indeed had a president named Huang Yiyi.

"Mrs. Huang is a cultivator. According to records, her cultivation has reached the fourth level. She is the president with the highest cultivation level in the history of the Chamber of Commerce. At that time, under her leadership, the Chamber of Commerce was at its peak.

"However, Mrs. Huang's cultivation did not make any further breakthroughs, her longevity did not increase, and in the end she could not escape the passage of time."

Huang Kaoxin touched his chin and said: "That said, I do have some impressions, but Mrs. Huang was a person seven or eight hundred years ago. Why does Brother Su ask? Could it be that Brother Su is after Mrs. Huang?"

Su Han shook his head and said, "No, just ask casually."

Huang Kaoxin and Dong Qizhi looked at each other doubtfully.

Seeing that Su Regret didn't want to say more, the two of them didn't ask the question to the end. Seeing that there was nothing left and right, they took their leave and left.

"Yes, it's been 1000 years, and everything has changed." Su Han sighed inwardly.

Strictly speaking, Huang Yiyi was not his old friend, but his junior sister's friend.

Before the end of the war in the previous life, Su Han walked around the world and took in his junior sister. During the subsequent journey, the two of them traveled on merchant ships.

During a trip, the junior sister and Huang Yiyi forged a deep friendship.

At that time, Huang Yiyi was the captain of the chamber of commerce, and her cultivation was only one level.

Later, Su Regret took his younger brother and younger sister to the Lushan Mountains, and the younger sister and Huang Yiyi still communicated by letter.In the occasional mention of his younger sister, he knew that Huang Yiyi had made breakthroughs in practice in the next ten years, and even became the president of the chamber of commerce.

When the Chamber of Commerce was in disaster, the junior sister asked Su Han to help Huang Yiyi. Su Han agreed and successfully solved the disaster of the Chamber of Commerce.

As a thank you, Huang Yiyi also gave him a few tokens that symbolize the distinguished guests of the chamber of commerce, and the chamber of commerce must treat the holders of the tokens with the highest standards.

If Su Regret remembers correctly, he still had this token in his storage bag in his previous life.

After thousands of years of war, old friends have become nothing more than a handful of loess.

For some reason, Su Han suddenly felt a little worried in his heart.

Junior brothers and sisters... they should all be fine, right?

There were people coming and going on the deck, and it was very lively.

Su Xuan watched silently and said nothing.

Standing behind him, Chen Chuyao watched the reflection of his silent back and the lively scene on the deck.

For some reason, she suddenly felt a little sorry for the young master.

This heartache made her wonder where she was born.

But she couldn't let the son continue like this, so she took the initiative to speak.

"Sir, since we have arrived at Jiukui City, when will we leave for the next place?"
