Raising Silkworms and Refining Gu from Mount Hundred Thousand

Seeing Han Wending appear, Zhou Qing couldn't help but look happy. He quickly stepped forward and saluted respectfully: "I've met Han Shibo!"

Before he went to Nanli County, just in case, he wrote a letter in advance and asked the town's escort agency to deliver the letter to Han's family and hand it over to Han Qingqing. This was to prevent the Demon Suppression Department and the police as soon as he arrived at Nanli County. People from the Five Poison Sect came to look for trouble.

He really guessed it right!

However, Zhou Qing didn't expect that the Demon Suppression Division and the Five Poison Sect would send two great martial arts masters from the Blood Exchange Realm to question him. They really thought highly of him.

Of course, he never expected that the person coming from the Han family was not Han Qingqing, but the head of the family, Han Wending.

Han Wending turned around, with a gentle smile on his solemn face, and stretched out his hand to help.

"My good nephew is exempt from courtesy. Last time my good nephew left in a hurry, he did not allow the Han family to fulfill their duties as landlords. When he returns this time, he must stay with the Han family for a longer time."

"It was the junior who was rude last time." Zhou Qing said respectfully.

When the two great martial arts masters of the Blood Exchange Realm on the side saw this, their expressions froze. They didn't expect that Zhou Qing had such a close relationship with the Han family, so this was a bit troublesome.

"Let's settle the current matter first." Han Wending nodded, and the smile on his face gradually faded away as he faced the two great martial arts masters in the blood exchange realm.

"Wan Guang, you broke into nephew Zhou Xian's house for no reason and beat my maid. Are you trying to turn against my Han family?"

"I" Wan Guang's face changed when he saw Han Wending's tough attitude, but he did not dare to say harsh words to Han Wending, so his attitude immediately softened.

"Senior nephew Wan Jiang is missing. I came here to ask questions on the order of the sect master. I want to find out the situation from my young junior nephew named Zhou."

"Oh? Wan Jiang is missing?" Han Wending said thoughtfully, without saying anything more, but looked back at Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing took a step forward, held up his hands and said: "Senior Brother Wan Jiang and I are not familiar with each other. I only know that he never came back after going out last month. I don't know anything else. I want to know about this, senior sister and Senior Brother Wei has informed Master."

They had already prepared their rhetoric before coming.

Since it is firmly confirmed that Wan Jiang is missing, the best explanation is that it is not clear.

After all, a big living person, a bone refining realm martial artist, has legs of his own, so no one can see him.

"Whether it's true or not, follow me back to the Five Poison Sect, and the sect master will find out once you ask." Wan Guang's face darkened.

"Even if I go to the Five Poison Sect, Senior Brother Wan Jiang's disappearance has nothing to do with me. Listening to what the senior said, is it possible that he still wants to torture the junior?" Zhou Qing raised his eyebrows.

When Han Wending heard this, although he said nothing, his oppressive eyes fell on Wan Guang.

Wan Guang felt his whole body tense up, and said bravely: "The sect master will naturally not torture the disciples in the sect, but the elder of the punishment hall in the sect has practiced a 'soul-taking technique', which can be used on warriors below the blood exchange realm to make them Tell me everything you know, and tell me everything you know.”

A strange color flashed in Zhou Qing's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Has the sect used the mind-bewitching technique on Senior Brother Wei?"

"Not yet." Wan Guang's expression was stagnant. In fact, he was just deceiving Zhou Qing. Unexpectedly, Zhou Qing was young and didn't panic at all when things happened.

However, mainly because Han Wending was by his side, he did not dare to intimidate Zhou Qing with his cultivation in the blood exchange realm.

"It seems that this soul-obsessing technique has quite a negative impact on the recipient, right?" Zhou Qing's face turned cold. He was not scared.

"If you don't resist, you will naturally not be affected. If Master Nephew Zhou is clear, why not give it a try?" Wan Guang said forcefully.

"Whoever doubts it will provide evidence! I am innocent myself, why do I need to prove my innocence? Besides, if I use such insidious methods against my disciples just because of my suspicion, it doesn't matter if I don't leave the Five Poison Sect." Zhou Qing's attitude Toughened up.

Private fights are strictly prohibited in Nanli County. In fact, it is not Zhou Qing who is protected, but Wan Guang.

If this was in the wild today, a mere Wan Guang would not be qualified to question him.

Wan Guang saw that Zhou Qing didn't give him any face, and his words were almost scolding. He didn't regard him as an elder or senior at all. He couldn't help but sneered with a sullen face:

"Listen to what you mean, don't you admit that you are a disciple of the Five Poison Sect?! You are indeed a disciple of Junior Brother Wei, each one is better than the other."

"Huh?" Han Wending on the side raised his eyebrows.

Wan Guang's face suddenly turned green and white, as if a dyeing workshop had been opened on his face.

However, from the beginning, he came with the attitude of bullying the small and overwhelming others. Now facing Han Wending, who is far stronger than himself, he can only be defeated.

"Senior Wan, if you have nothing else to ask, please come back. This junior comes from a poor family and doesn't have any decent tea to entertain senior, so I won't keep senior as a guest." Zhou Qing looked indifferent and said goodbye directly.

"Okay! Okay! Okay! I will tell the sect master what happened today truthfully!" Wan Guang gritted his teeth and looked at Zhou Qing hatefully.

"Farewell!"

As he spoke, he cupped his hands at Han Wending and walked away immediately.

At this time, the other remaining demon-suppressing officer in purple official uniform looked slightly embarrassed.

"Xiao Yun, what about you? Why did you come to see Zhou Xian's nephew?" Han Wending looked at the other party. Although he called him by his first name, his attitude softened.

"Lord Han, Xiao Kang, the general in charge of Ping'an County, has disappeared inexplicably. He investigated a large number of files about Zhou Qing before his disappearance, so my subordinates came to Zhou Qing to find out some information."

Xiao Yun bowed respectfully.

Although the Demon Suppression Division and the Prefecture of Nanli County are not in the same system, Han Wending, as the captain of Nanli County, has a higher official position and stronger strength than him, so he naturally does not dare to neglect.

Han Wending's heart was moved and he said without changing his expression: "Before Xiao Kang's disappearance, he investigated a large number of files about Zhou Xian's nephew. Doesn't this mean that his disappearance is related to Zhou Xian's nephew?"

"Of course, this subordinate is here just for routine questioning." Xiao Yun said seriously.

"Okay, just ask." Han Wending nodded.

"Yes." Xiao Yun looked at Zhou Qing and asked him a few basic questions. Where was Xiao Kang on the day he disappeared, what was he doing, and whether anyone else was around.

Zhou Qing responded one by one.

In fact, both Xiao Yun and Zhou Qing knew that questioning was just a formality.

Zhou Qing had worked in the Demon Suppression Department, so he naturally knew how many different methods there were for interrogating prisoners in prisons. If the degree of perversion was not taken into account, the creativity of many punishments was simply beyond the imagination of normal people.

More than a dozen kinds of torture are applied at the same time, and even a strong man cannot bear it.

However, such a punishment would naturally not be used on Zhou Qing.

Many times, it doesn't matter whether you did something or not.

If Zhou Qing has no strength or background, then he will definitely confess as long as he enters the prison of the Demon Suppression Division.

This is the same as being stabbed eight times in the back and committing suicide.

Death might be the easiest outcome at that time.

The point is not the truth, but getting the job done.

"My subordinates have finished asking. I'll go back and take orders now." After Xiao Yun finished asking, he didn't delay. He bowed respectfully to Han Wending and was about to leave.

"Master Xiao, go slowly." Zhou Qing cupped his hands and said before sending Xiao Yun out.

"Brother Zhou, stay here." Xiao Yun signaled that he didn't need to see him off, and quickly walked out of the house.

Zhou Qing watched Xiao Yun leave, his eyes changing. Today was just the first level. It was the beginning of trouble, not the end.

He pursues stability, but there are always people who don't let him settle.

Zhou Qing looked at Han Wending and said, "Uncle Han Shi, this is actually a matter."

"You don't need to explain, I believe what you said." Han Wending raised his hand to interrupt him. For him, the truth was not important.

"You saved Qing Qing and Lu Yan. I must repay this kindness, even if it means turning against the Five Poison Sect. Besides, the Wan Family today is not the Wan Family it once was."

"Thank you Uncle Han Shi!" Zhou Qing saluted respectfully.

"It doesn't have to be like this." Han Wending held Zhou Qing's wrist, "She has already read the letter you wrote to Qingqing. I am going to arrange a position of general for you in the Shenwei Camp. In this way, the Han family Both the Su family and the Su family will be your backers, and you can practice with peace of mind before you break through the blood exchange realm."

"Commander? I'm afraid this is against the rules, right?" Zhou Qing was stunned. General is generally a military attache that can only be held by a great martial artist in the blood exchange realm.

"It's against the rules. But..." Han Wending nodded, his words showing unquestionable domineering: "In Camp Shenwei, my rules are the rules!"

"Of course, as you serve as a general now, it will definitely be difficult to convince the public, so you will not be given any real power or salary at the beginning. I believe that with your ability, you will soon be able to stand out in the battle with the barbarians. Then you will be The well-known Shenwei Battalion Commander."

Han Wending said with a smile.

"Yes!" Zhou Qing said seriously, joining the Shenwei Camp would make it much easier to contact the Wuxi barbarians.

"The camp set out yesterday. There are still some things that need to be dealt with in the camp. I will go back to the camp first and come back to you in a few days." Han Wending nodded.

"Uncle Han Shi made a serious statement. When Uncle Han Shi comes back, it will be natural for the younger generation to pay a visit." Zhou Qing said respectfully.

"That's fine, Qingqing has been talking about you in my ears a lot during this time!" Han Wending showed a smile on his face.

"Dad! What are you talking about? You are arranging your daughter behind your back." At this time, a voice came from the door.

Zhou Qing followed the reputation and saw Han Qingqing wearing black armor and her long hair tied into a high ponytail. Compared with her previous arrogance, she looked more heroic.

"I complimented you earlier, but you didn't have time to hear me. But when I said this, you just heard me." Han Wending teased.

"Who told you not to take me with you when you come back? How can I have the skills like you." Han Qingqing said angrily.

"It's not like you're urging me to help nephew Zhou Xian." In front of Han Qingqing, Han Wending didn't have the airs of a master at all, just like an old father doting on his daughter.

"What are you talking about?!" Han Qingqing's face turned red and she stamped her feet anxiously.

"Okay, you young people, please keep talking, I still have to deal with matters in the camp." Seeing that his daughter was anxious, Han Wending immediately dodged and disappeared from the scene.

"So fast!" Zhou Qing's eyes narrowed, and Han Wending disappeared from sight before he could even react.

This kind of speed is far beyond what Mu Renjie can match.

Han Wending is most likely a top martial artist who has been replaced for more than six times, and may be stronger than Wei Sheng in his heyday.

"Brother Zhou, how are you doing recently?" Han Qingqing came to Zhou Qing and looked at him cutely.

"Thank you very much for your concern, Miss Qingqing. Everything is fine with me recently." Zhou Qing smiled and handed over his hands, and then told the two maids: "Hurry and show Miss Qingqing some tea."

"Yes." The two maids hurriedly went to the backyard.

At this time, Han Qingqing noticed the slap marks on Lanlan's face, and her face darkened: "Lanlan, who hit you."

"Fourth Miss" Lanlan saw Han Qingqing, her voice was filled with tears, and she told Han Qingqing what had just happened.

"The people from the Wan family are really bullying others!" Han Qingqing's face was full of indignation.

"This matter will not be settled like this. I will definitely make Wan Guang repay him a hundredfold!" Zhou Qing comforted him. Since Wan Guang had malicious intentions towards him, he would have no choice but to let him die.

"Mr. Zhou" Lanlan was a little moved. She believed that Zhou Qing would have this ability sooner or later.

"Lan Lan, you were beaten for me today. You go to Xiao Hong and Xiao Lu and go to the warehouse to get fifty taels of silver as a little compensation for you." Zhou Qing nodded.

"Mr. Zhou, how can this be done?" Lanlan waved her hands repeatedly. Even though she was a maid of the Han family and the personal bodyguard of the most favored fourth lady, her monthly salary was as much as two taels of silver, or fifty taels of silver. It was enough for her to save for several years.

"Of course that's okay. My face, Zhou Qing's, is far more than fifty taels of silver. If it weren't for the recent excessive expenses and lack of money in the treasury, even five hundred taels would be nothing." Zhou Qing said sternly.

He never treats people badly who do good things.

With his current expenditure, even if he had more than fifty taels or five hundred taels, he wouldn't be able to do anything big.

But for the people below, the money is a huge sum of money.

It would be too mean to make so much money and still be picky about the people around you.

"Lanlan, since Brother Zhou has said so, just keep the money. Brother Zhou is much more generous than me." Han Qingqing agreed.

"Young lady, you are serious. You are also very kind to me!" Lanlan said quickly.

"Go." Han Qingqing motioned to Lan Lan to go quickly.

"Yes." Lan Lan bowed and left the front yard.

Han Qingqing waited until Lanlan left before saying, "Brother Zhou, if you are short of money, you can tell me."

"I'm not short of money at all. You should keep your money for yourself. I have my own way." Zhou Qing waved his hand. He had already asked Han Wending to help him so much this time, and he was embarrassed to borrow it from Han Qingqing again. money.

Besides, although Han Qingqing is the most favored member of the Han family, she is still young after all, and having a few thousand taels of silver is considered too much.

If it weren't for the fact that many things on him were temporarily inconvenient to sell, he would not be short of money.

Just some of the items belonging to Mu Renjie and Wan Jiang could be sold for as little as 10,000 taels of silver.

Han Qingqing nodded and walked to the front hall: "Okay, if you need anything, just say it. I have the property my mother left me, which is all my private money. Although I don't earn much, I want to borrow it first." It’s okay to give you three to fifty thousand taels of silver as an emergency. When you have money, you can consider paying it back to me.”

"squeak!"

Han Qingqing was talking to herself. She walked into the front hall and found that Zhou Qing did not follow her. There was a "squeak" behind her.

"Brother Zhou?" Han Qingqing looked back and saw Zhou Qing standing at the door with a stunned expression.

"Miss Qingqing, I admit that I spoke too loudly just now." A bright smile appeared on Zhou Qing's face, and her eight white upper teeth were dazzlingly white under the sunlight.

"Actually, this." Zhou Qing made a gesture of rubbing his hands like a fly.

Thirty thousand taels of silver!

It was enough for him to achieve major breakthroughs in martial arts and Gu refining at the same time.

If he rushes to the blood exchange realm in one go, his strength will greatly increase, and it will be much easier to make money.

"." Han Qingqing was confused by Zhou Qing's sudden enthusiasm.
