Feeling that there was nothing to see, Xiaoyao Pavilion was more attractive to him, so he said to the beggar Xiaoqi, "Let's go to Xiaoyao Pavilion."
"Okay, little brother, sit down." The beggar Xiaoqi didn't let Dongfang Bubai drive the carriage, but acted as a groom himself.
He was a bit arrogant at first, although his family was poor, he could not be moved by poverty and humbleness, he would rather be a beggar and starve his stomach than look at other people's winks, he would rather lose his skill in planting flowers from now on, and he would not take advantage of those evil people.But today his thoughts changed. Dongfang Bubai had never met him before, and when old man Miao made rude remarks and insulted him with words, he actually stood up to help him.This was probably the first person who was kind to him and extended a helping hand after he became homeless. He was willing to drive for such a person without any complaints.
Dongfang Bubai didn't know what the little beggar was thinking, so he sat in the corner of the carriage obediently. To him, it didn't matter who was driving the carriage. If it wasn't for the distraction of people, he would put the carriage and flowers into the attached space together, so as not to waste time. Looking at the flowers and plants in this car, bumping back and forth, the quality of the flowers and plants will definitely be compromised in the end.
There is a horse tie post on the side in front of Xiaoyao Pavilion, fasten the carriage, Dongfang Bubai sees two guards standing in front of the gate, with serious expressions, standing tall and straight, like two door gods, but there is no need to worry about the flowers and plants on the carriage being killed by others. Take the opportunity to steal it.
The beggar Xiaoqi obviously noticed this too, and simply led Dongfang Bubai into the Xiaoyao Pavilion. Once inside, there was an unusually wide hall, and not far from the door, there was a counter.There were a few people sitting behind the counter, who seemed to be guys from Xiaoyao Pavilion or something, and their clothes were exactly the same as those at the door.And behind the guys, there is a huge scroll with eight large characters written on it, "Mission reward, bounty hunter", signed in Xiaoyao Pavilion.
Looking around, there were quite a few scrolls hanging in the hall, some of which were surrounded by a few people, Dongfang Bubai looked at the beggar Xiao Qi, "What are those scrolls for?"
The beggar Xiaoqi also came in and planned to do some reward tasks to earn some steamed bun money, so he had learned about this place before, but after a few days, he didn't see any suitable tasks for him, so he gave up the idea, An Fen Be a beggar.
As an insider who has never done a mission, Beggar Xiaoqi feels extremely ashamed. He is just explaining purely, but he is still useful.Approaching a scroll and flipping it in front of Dongfang Bubai, he explained, "These scrolls are in five colors: black, red, yellow, purple, and white. Each color represents a mission level. Black is the highest and the most difficult. White is the lowest and easiest."
Looking at the contents on the yellow scroll in his hand, Dongfang Bubai felt amused. He didn't expect that the Xiaoyao Pavilion even included criminals who were offered a reward by the imperial court.
"Xiaoyao Pavilion is still offering rewards for important criminals from the court?"
"Yes."
Dongfang Bubai had just finished asking the beggar Xiaoqi, and before he could answer, there was a deep answer from behind, and the two turned around at the same time, looking at the person who came.
I saw the visitor holding a fan with a poem of Happy Journey written on the fan, and looking at his face and make-up, he was dressed in white clothes, looking as graceful as a fairy, coupled with that ordinary face without any obvious features, it made people lose interest , forget it at a glance.
"Being Xiaoyao next time, I'm being polite here."
Ren Xiaoyao bowed his hand as a salute, Dongfang Bubai didn't know his purpose of striking up a conversation, but he knew that he would not hit a smiley face with his hand, so he bowed his hand casually as a greeting.
"I think my little brother is Mian Shan, but I don't know how to call him? Have we met?" Ren Xiaoyao felt that Dongfang Bubai's face was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he met him for a while.
Dongfang Bubai's heart trembled, he thought he had met someone he knew from the original body, but let Ren Xiaoyao not know him for sure, so he was relieved, and said politely, "My surname is Dongfang, I don't know you."
Ren Xiaoyao was in a daze, it was the first time he had heard the surname Dongfang, and felt that he had probably misunderstood the wrong person, and there were more than one or two similar people in the world, which was not unusual.
"I'm being rude, little brother." Ren Xiaoyao apologized, then turned to look at the scroll in Dongfang Bubai's hands, thought about it, and enthusiastically explained to him, "Many people in the world don't want to deal with people in the court, so Xiaoyao Pavilion will accept the government's reward, and then release it as a task, and finally Xiaoyao Pavilion will draw [-]% of the government's reward."
His explanation was clear and clear, Dongfang Bubai nodded in thanks, "Thank you."
"Brother, please take a look. The five-color surface represents the difficulty of the task. In essence, yellow is not included, because yellow is only used in government reward tasks." Ren Xiaoyao pointed at the task with the fan in his hand. Pointing to the top of the scroll.
Following his instructions, Dongfang Bubai read the missions announced under the yellow scroll one by one, and it was exactly as Ren Xiaoyao said.He had seen scrolls of other colors, and probably understood how these were divided.
There are only black, purple, and white colors that really divide the task level. The black scroll represents the long task time, many dangers, and you may lose your life. Of course, the high risk is accompanied by a huge bounty; High, large quantity, acceptable to most capable people; white scrolls are usually some labor or temporary employment tasks, mainly for ordinary people, such as hiring people to harvest during the autumn harvest, building houses and hiring masons, etc.
As for the remaining red and yellow scrolls, he already knew that the yellow scroll represented the government, so what would the red represent?After Dongfang Bubai observed carefully, he found that there was an expedited sign on the red scrolls, which were probably time-limited missions.
Dongfang Bubai is very interested in the mission released by Xiaoyao Pavilion, especially the official reward on the yellow scroll. The amount is so large that it is difficult not to be tempted. In addition to his great martial arts, it is still easy to catch a few thieves and bandits. It's just that he doesn't like to run around, and based on this, it's a bit unsightly.Thinking that I still have a lot of things to do, I am not in a hurry at all, but if I can get the portraits of those criminals, it is also a way to catch them when I meet them in the future.
Having made up his mind, he wanted to ask Ren Xiaoyao, and he suddenly realized that when he heard the name Ren Xiaoyao, he would most likely be the owner of the Xiaoyao Pavilion. As long as this guy agreed, wouldn't the matter be half done?
Ren Xiaoyao seemed to have the ability to read minds, before he could open his mouth, he asked softly, "Brother Dongfang, do you want the portrait of the important criminal who is rewarded by the government?"
Dongfang Bubai had a puzzled expression on his face, and a trace of alertness rose in his heart. This Xiaoyao seemed ordinary, no different from a scholar, but in fact he was astute in observation and as careful as a silk thread. One must know that he could become the master of Xiaoyao Pavilion in Heishan, and with the words " The word "Xiaoyao" is used as the name of a workshop, which itself cannot be taken lightly.
His identity is full of doubts. It is said that one thought becomes a demon, one thought becomes a Buddha. He doesn't know whether that unknown life experience will bring him great wealth, or is it dangerous and noble. If he cherishes life and practice, he should stay away from such deep-minded people.
"Your Majesty has this intention. I wonder if Mr. Ren can agree." After thinking and thinking, Dongfang Bubai added a few words of explanation with a wry smile, in order to show that he was greedy for life and afraid of death, "I saw a lot of yellow scrolls just now, those There are so many vicious and vicious people, so it is reasonable to avoid them, but this appearance is easy to cause trouble, so asking for more portraits can be regarded as confidence and comfort, and it is easier to guard against it when you see it."
Ren Xiaoyao seemed to believe his words, nodded with a smile, and led him and the beggar Xiaoqi to the counter, "My Xiaoyao Pavilion is open for business after all, so if Brother Dongfang wants a portrait, he must Bought it for money."
"It should be so." Dongfang Bubai couldn't help but admire Xiaoyao Pavilion's way of doing business. I'm afraid those important criminals have made a lot of money because of the portraits before they are caught.
"Ah Fu, get this little brother the portrait of the important criminal that the government has offered a reward for."
"Which case?" The man named Ah Fu took out a thick book, which recorded in detail the history of the cases committed by the wanted people.
Dongfang Bubai pretended to be hesitant, and said after a while, "All of them."
As soon as these words came out, Ah Fu stopped his movements and raised his head in surprise. Although the missions offered by the government as rewards were not listed in the black scroll, they are definitely dangerous enough if classified according to the mission level. Therefore, Xiaoyao Pavilion has been established since its establishment. There has never been a person who has taken all the yellow scroll tasks in one go.
Ren Xiaoyao also looked at Dongfang Bubai in astonishment, and even forgot to shake the paper fan in his hand, but when he thought of what Dongfang Bubai said before, he suddenly understood, but in his staggered eyes, there was a ray of deep thought, faith Believe it or not, probably only he himself knows.
"One piece of five taels of silver, a total of seventeen copies, and a fee of 85 taels." Ah Fu flipped through the books for a while, compared the books in his hand, and quickly pulled out a few folds of thin paper books in the shape of folders, placed them on the counter, and pulled them to the side of the counter The abacus flicked and flicked, and the total price was obtained.
Beggar Xiaoqi followed Dongfang Bubai, feeling that he couldn't keep up with the rhythm at all, seeing that he was about to pay, he hurriedly stopped him and said, "Little brother, what are you doing with so much money, those people don't dare to go out on the street openly, maybe I can’t even come across any of them.” That’s five taels of silver, and how long it takes for ordinary people to save up.
"Not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. After all, I am more afraid of death." Dongfang Bubai replied meaningfully, still took out the silver and gave it to Ah Fu.
I took a paper folder and flipped through it for a while, the first one was the portrait of the wanted criminal, and the crimes he committed were written on the next few pages. According to the nature of the case, we can probably guess the degree of danger. Xiaoyao Pavilion made these The carefulness makes it clear at a glance.
Gathering the folders together, Dongfang Bubai waved his hand and told the beggar Xiao Qi, "Xiao Qi put these on the cart, let's go."
Ren Xiaoyao didn't know why, so he walked out of the gate and saw that the carriage they were driving was extremely shabby, so he knocked on his hand twice before turning back to Xiaoyao Pavilion.
☆、Kao dye seven
Beggar Xiaoqi drove the carriage slowly, still annoyed by Dongfang Bubai's behavior in Xiaoyao Pavilion, he felt that if he hadn't led Dongfang Bubai there, the other party would not have lost nearly a hundred taels of silver in vain.
The more he thinks about it, the more he blames himself, but the matter has come to this point, there is nothing he can do now, on one side is the noble brother, who is kind-hearted and fights against injustices, and on the other side is the Xiaoyao Pavilion, which is powerful and unpredictable, and he cannot control it.
"Brother, where are we going next?"
In fact, Dongfang Bubai no longer had the intention to go shopping anymore. Seeing that the sky was getting late, he thought that he planned to accept the little beggar before, and he would be too late to return to Anning County, so he could only find an inn to rest for the night, and return tomorrow.
"Find an inn to stay for one night, and make plans later."
When staying in the hotel, Dongfang Bubai asked for two rooms, and seeing the beggar Xiao Qi looking over in confusion, he explained, "The other room is for you, I have something to ask."
"Thank you noble brother." The beggar Xiaoqi bowed deeply to him, Dongfang Bubai's attitude was too indifferent, so he couldn't feel the slightest hint of pity and sympathy.
This is the inferiority of human beings. When the tiger is in peace and in trouble, once others show enthusiasm, they can't help but wonder if the other party has other plans, but in a blink of an eye, others become cold and lonely, and they will be careless instead. Receptive to help from others.
The shop waiter led the way and came to the herringbone store on the second floor of the inn. The room arranged for Dongfang Bubai and the beggar Xiaoqi happened to be at the opposite door, "Guest, these two rooms are for the two of you, what else do you need?" Then, the waiter also helped to open the door of a guest room.
Dongfang Bubai walked into the guest room, turned his head and told the waiter, "Bring some food over here."
"Hey, the little one will be delivered right away. Waiter, you can rest. If you need it, you can go downstairs to call for someone." The shop waiter agreed, and after saying a few more words, he left the guest room and went to the kitchen to urge dinner.
After watching Xiao Er from the store go out, Dongfang Bubai pointed to the chair by the table and motioned for Xiao Qi, the beggar, "Sit down, let's have a chat."
Beggar Xiaoqi didn't know why, so he could only obey orders, and awkwardly chose a seat a little far away from Dongfang Bubai to sit down.
Seeing this, Dongfang Bubai didn't say much, just tapped on the table, and after attracting the attention of the beggar Xiaoqi, he said, "Xiaoqi, from the words of old man Miao today, I roughly know that you can plant flowers and plants?"
"Well, not only can I, but I can say that I am very good at it." Speaking of flowers and plants, the beggar Xiaoqi became more confident, and he no longer hunched over his body. His back was straight and straight. No one dares to call the number one the number two.
Regarding his change, Dongfang Bubai remained calm and continued, "I am a doctor, and I intend to build a garden dedicated to planting flowers and herbs. I need someone who knows how to take care of it. I wonder if Xiao Qi is interested?"
The beggar Xiaoqi was stunned for a moment, he never thought that just being a tour guide, after a meal, he would eventually develop into Dongfang Bubai and wanted to hire him, "This—I'm just a stinky beggar, isn't my brother afraid of being cheated by me. "
Shaking his head, Dongfang Bubai pointed to his temple with a smile, "I've been observing all this way."
Hearing is believing, seeing is believing, the old man Miao deceived him at a high price, and the time at the Xiaoyao Pavilion counter was enough to let Dongfang Bubai know the character of the beggar Xiaoqi, and the good impression he had at the dinner table for the first time. An honest person who is easy to satisfy, not greedy, has a bottom line and insists on himself, why doesn't he use it?
The beggar Xiao Qi wanted to agree, but then he thought of the bloody feud he was carrying, shook his head again, and refused, "Your kindness, Xiao Qi has accepted it, but the revenge has not been avenged, and I can't help myself. Little brother, with good intentions, I really dare not bring you into trouble."
"Oh? Xiaoqi is too polite, I wonder if you can tell me about this?"
"This—" Beggar Xiao Qi obviously hesitated, feeling extremely entangled in his heart.
Dongfang Bubai, a young master of fire, added another firewood and said, "Xiao Qi doesn't want to be a beggar all the time, does he? If this continues, revenge is a small thing, and starving to death is a big thing."
Knowing that Dongfang Bubai's words were justified, the beggar Xiaoqi slowly told the truth, "My full name is Ranqi, and I am the current owner of Kao Valley, the seventh generation descendant of the Ran family..."
It turns out that somewhere in the dense forest of the Black Mountain, there is a hidden canyon, known as Kao Valley, and the little beggar Ranqi has lived in this Kao Valley since he was a child.According to legend, the ancestors of the dye family once found this place by accident when their family migrated to escape the war. At that time, the valley was full of flowers, blooming one after another, as if to welcome the dye family. Therefore, the ancestors of the dye family sighed that it was a fairyland, so they decided to , settle here.
Dealing with the flowers in the valley all day long, gradually the dye family developed the practice of using flowers as tea, eating flowers, and using flowers to smoke clothes. Later, in order to inspire future generations, they even increased entertainment activities in the valley. They also established Flora Festival.The Flower God Festival takes the ninth day of each season as the official day, which is taken from the saying that ninety-nine return to one. At that time, the members of the Ran clan will sing and dance to celebrate the comfortable life brought to them by the Flower God.
At first, there was a dance of fighting flowers, and then it developed into a battle of Kao every three months. There is no distinction between the descendants of the Ran clan.
After two generations in this way, a new hidden worry gradually emerged. Although Kao Valley is good, but it is closed and does not marry outsiders, sooner or later there will be problems.So after discussion by the tribe, the patriarch sent someone out to buy young slaves, and they came back specially for marriage.But those who were sold as slaves had seen the prosperity of the outside world, so how could they be willing to stay in Kao Valley, where the folk customs are simple and the news is backward.
Therefore, there was an incident of married slaves escaping. In order to prevent similar incidents from happening again, the patriarch ordered people to plant a large area of Mimantian outside Kao Valley.
Mimantian, as the name suggests, half a mile in the sky is lost, its fragrance is poisonous, within half a mile of the flower plant, no matter whether you hold your breath and cover your nose, it will not work, it can make people unconscious, just like being in an illusion.What's more ingenious is that the petals of Mimantian are the antidote, as long as you put the petals of Mimantian in your mouth, you can walk through the range of its fragrance soberly, which only the patriarchs and elders of the minority know.
After that, escapes still happened from time to time, but every time those who escaped would get lost in the sea of flowers, and no one dared to try again in the end.
After so many years, the old patriarch passed away, and the new patriarch took charge. His style of doing things was completely different from his predecessor's.He once said: The war has passed, and now the peaceful and prosperous world is the time when the members of the Ran clan were born.
As a result, some clansmen stayed in the valley and continued farming and women weaving. The new patriarch led willing clansmen out of Kao Valley and went outside to publicize the Flower God Festival, start Kao Hegemony, and promote their flowers and plants.
In this generation alone, the Flower God Festival is famous far and wide, and the Kao Competition is the highest honor that craftsmen compete to participate in. Those who are not members of the Ran clan and who win the name of Kao can become registered disciples of the Ran clan.
Huawang Valley was originally the settlement of the Ran clan, and because of the decision to accept disciples with other surnames, it was soon no longer hidden. There were many incompetent people in the clan, and there were also talented people among the disciples with other surnames, gradually, dissatisfaction arose.Until the sixth generation patriarch of Kao Valley, the suspicion escalated and finally turned into civil strife.
The cause of the incident was that a disciple with a foreign surname killed a disciple of the Ran family because of love and hatred, and was expelled from Kao Valley by the sixth-generation patriarch.In addition, the disciple with a surname did not give up after that, but intensified, colluding with other disciples with a different surname who had long been dissatisfied in the valley, and quickly amassing money to strengthen his power.
Forbearance for more than ten years, finally half a year ago, they did not know where Mi Mantian's solution was, and in the dead of night, they led a lot of martial arts people to attack Kao Valley in one fell swoop, killing and injuring countless members of the Ran clan, and finally sent him out, so far , Kao Valley changed hands.
"Now I'm the only one left in the Ran clan." Ran Qi had already said that his face was full of tears. In the past six months, he had tasted the warmth and coldness of human relationships. Talking to him again, the ten years of brotherhood between teachers and brothers becomes extremely ridiculous.
Pity for so many of his clansmen, including the masters of those traitors, and the babies who are waiting to be made up, all of them disappeared overnight.
After hearing his story, Dongfang Bubai sighed a little. The ambition of the new patriarch was doomed to a tragic ending at this time. He also wanted to build the Nether Palace, so he should learn from the lessons of the Ran clan.Otherwise, tomorrow's Nether Sect will be Yuhi's Kao Valley, which completely violates the meaning of the Nether Sect's existence.
"You do things for me, and I'll avenge you, how about it?" Dongfang Bubai crushed a corner of the table, and the bit of wood instantly turned into powder in his hands.
Thinking of avenging and killing people for people, the killing of evil people should also be considered a good deed, which is a good deed, but he couldn't make up his mind, Dongfang Bubai called System No. [-] in his mind, "System, a member of the Kao Guran Clan Hundreds of people have been slaughtered, if I kill the murderer, is this good or evil?"
"The treacherous and the wicked can be punished by everyone. This is good, and the host can do it."
"drop--
The host triggers the task: kill with killing.
Task content: More than two hundred people in Kao Valley were brutally murdered overnight, and the grievances cannot be relieved. The host can quickly hunt down the murderer and comfort the spirit of the deceased. "
Ran Qi was originally afraid that Dongfang Bubai would cause trouble to his upper body, but when he saw that he easily crushed a corner of the table, he thought: This is not a weak little brother, he is obviously much stronger than many masters.
"it is good."
Ran Qi's single word uttered, accomplished everything he carried on his own, accomplished Dongfang Bubai's mood of recruiting capable people and strangers, and even accomplished the life and death of everyone in Kao Valley today.
"Misty Mantian's antidote, can you still get it?"
Ran Qi took out a porcelain bottle, handed it over, and said, "The reason why the clansmen sent me out desperately was not because they were aimless. I am immune to the fragrance of the sky." Only the previous patriarch knew this. When in the sea of flowers, he would always eat pills made from Mimantian flower petals to pretend, if not, those traitors would probably not let him go.
Taking the bottle, Dongfang Bubai smiled lightly, "That's good, tonight, we'll explore Kao Valley at night." With his current martial arts, even with Ran Qi as a burden, he can still come and go freely.
"En!" Ran Qi solemnly nodded, vowing secretly in his heart that if the vengeance was avenged, he would have nothing to worry about, and for the rest of his life, he would devote himself to managing the plantation for Dongfang Bubai and repay his kindness of rebuilding.
Just at this moment, with a squeak, the waiter pushed open the door and came in with a tray in his hand, "Excuse me, guest, your meals are ready."
After putting the food on the table and putting it away, the waiter walked out again, "Please wait for the customers, please take my leave."
The shop waiter came and went quickly, Ran Qi was worried about what he heard, and frowned again, but Dongfang Bubai didn't care at all, picked up the chopsticks and urged, "Eat quickly, you should be hungry by now."
Ran Qi swallowed a mouthful of white rice, quite worried, even forgot to pick up the food, Dongfang Bubai shook his head helplessly, and had to comfort him, "Don't worry, the waiter didn't hear our conversation." With his current hearing and perception Let alone a commoner who doesn't know martial arts, even a master who is good at concealing his aura has nothing to hide.
"I'll go out in a while to buy some clothes, and come back to freshen up." Dongfang Bubai had just eaten two mouthfuls, and when he remembered something, he looked at Ran Qi's tattered clothes and said.
"Why?" Before he did anything for Dongfang Bubai, the other party was already taking care of food and clothing, feeling a little flustered.
"After all, Kao Valley is the place where your clan members have lived for several generations. It can be said to be your ancestral land. If you enter the valley wearing a beggar's uniform, you won't lose face to your ancestors?" Dongfang Bubai compared his heart, as if he had After waiting for future generations, they probably died of anger many times.
"Oh, thank you." Not only is it embarrassing, but the old ancestor will crawl out of the grave in anger and strangle his unfilial and useless offspring to death.
☆, the king will not be the king
Dongfang Bubai called the shop waiter, told him to put away the dishes, threw some pieces of silver to Ran Qi, and sent him out to buy clothes for himself.
Heishanji is not a county seat, there is no wall, and there is no need to close the city. Therefore, even at night, there are many merchants coming and going, and most of the shops on the street will not close until the early morning.Looking from the window, the lights of thousands of households are on and off, winding into a long dragon, like a city that never sleeps. Dongfang Bubai realized once again that this world is different.
System One, who had been silent for a long time, seemed to have sensed his thoughts. At this moment, he ran out and said disdainfully, "This is nothing at all. The development of technology and the emergence of electric lights are the real night without night."
System One often said things he couldn't understand, and Dongfang Bubai didn't care. Today, he has roughly understood the boundaries between good and evil. As long as he doesn't kill innocent people indiscriminately, it can be said that after his rebirth, he can still live in a secluded boudoir , live in peace.
Thinking that Ran Qi would not come back for a while, Dongfang Bubai sat cross-legged on the bed and began to meditate. He has always understood that only the strong have the right to speak, even if this pure yin body has outstanding talents However, if you want to be as beautiful as a forest, you will have to pay a hundredfold effort.It just so happened that he possessed and achieved the experience of his previous life, excellent body, and unremitting practice.
Dongfang Bubai's meditation is very boring. Leaving aside the fact that Ranqi walked out of the inn with the money, he didn't look around for shopping.
The lanterns in front of the clothing store are flickering and flickering, and the halo is dim. The shopkeeper probably has already eaten his dinner. He is standing behind the counter with his chin dragging, nodding his head in a sleepy position. Yawning, no one noticed Ranqi's arrival.
Ran Qi walked into the clothing store, came to the counter, and lightly tapped on the solid wood panel of the counter, "Shopkeeper, it's time to greet the customers."
The shopkeeper was awakened by the sound, very annoyed, looked up and saw Ran Qi in tattered beggar clothes, and was about to curse, but shut his mouth abruptly after Ran Qi took out a piece of broken silver.
In an instant, the shopkeeper performed a Sichuan opera face-changing. His eyes were crooked, he was smiling, and his tone was flattering, comparable to a movie king. "Guest, do you want to see ready-to-wear? This way please."
The shopkeeper didn't dislike Ran Qi's shabby clothes anymore, he walked out of the counter courteously, and even slapped the guy who was fighting Zhou Gong on the forehead.
Ran Qi followed the shopkeeper's guidance and looked at the men's ready-to-wear clothes hanging on the wall. They were all long gowns and gowns. For him who often played with flowers and plants, digging and filling mud, it seemed a bit empty but impractical.After looking around, I finally spotted a set of trousers and shorts. When I got closer, I found that the whole set of clothes was worn on a wooden figure.
"Just this style, according to my size, I need two sets of dark colors." Ran Qi pointed to the wooden man and said to the shopkeeper.
"Okay." The shopkeeper responded with a nod, then turned around and called the waiter, "Little Si, give the customer a measurement."
Although rich is a gentleman, but Ranqi is dirty all over, the shopkeeper is really in a panic, he doesn't want to come forward, so he asks the clerk to push it up, anyway, it's just a measurement, and he didn't offend the customer.
After measuring the size, the shopkeeper went to the inner room to get the clothes in person, and while Ranqi was waiting, he suddenly thought of visiting Kao Valley at night.Those traitors all recognize his appearance, plus Dongfang Bubai, with vermilion between his brows, and he is beautiful, making people unforgettable. Ran Qixi is terrified, and suddenly feels that if the two of them meet night watchmen in Kao Valley , is the rhythm of complete exposure.
Ran Qi thought about it, but he didn't expect that the reason why Dongfang Bubai dared to take him to Kao Valley was not only relying on his first-class skills, but also his previous experience as a monster fighting against heroes in his previous life.It doesn't matter to Dongfang Bubai if his face is seen, he just needs to kill him. Anyway, the mission given to him by System One is to kill and stop killing, so why not slaughter Kao Valley?
He struggled until the shopkeeper brought two sets of ready-made clothes, Ran Qi didn't think of a solution, and he didn't bother to observe the shopkeeper's slight reaction, so he directly pulled a short-fronted top and put it on.The shopkeeper's eyes jumped wildly, he was completely stunned by his heroic actions, his heart was thumping, and he was about to fly out of his throat. He was afraid that Ran Qi would try on the clothes but suddenly say no, then he would really cry and cry. up.
"It fits just right." Ranqi is still young, and has never bought clothes alone. Kao Valley has a special person to sew clothes, so they don't need to worry about it, so he didn't ask the price, and directly threw a piece of silver to the shopkeeper, " checkout."
Fortunately, the ready-made clothes he chose were not made of satin, but a kind of thick mixed coarse cloth, which was specially worn by ordinary people for work. People with better economic conditions would choose this kind of cloth to make clothes. Generally, coarse cloth is slightly more expensive, wear-resistant and comfortable.
"One set of ready-made clothes in this shop costs [-] renminbi, and you will be charged one tael or six for two sets. The change is four, please take it away." The shopkeeper took the two taels of silver and gave the change to Ran Qi.
Seeing that the deal was completed, the man pulled a piece of black cloth and helped Ran Qi wrap his clothes. Just as he was about to hand it to him, he saw Ran Qi's eyes shining brightly, staring at him brightly.Shrinking his neck in fright, the man didn't know why, so he could only ask in a trembling voice.
"Guest, what's the problem?"
"Shopkeeper, can you tear off another piece of black cloth for wrapping my clothes?" Pointing to the small bundle in the hands of the clerk, Ran Qi looked excited.
Startled by his enthusiastic and excited voice, the shopkeeper curled his lips, didn't say much after all, waved his hand at the clerk, just wanted to dismiss Ran Qi quickly, he had to see a doctor right away if such customers came a few more times .
The clerk also had lingering fears, and quickly tore a piece of black cloth, stuffed it into Ranqi together with the previous ready-made clothes, and said to the guest, "Guests, go slowly."
Ran Qi was thinking about the arrangements for the evening, but he didn't hear the clerk chasing people away at all, so he left with his things in his arms.When he returned to the inn, he still felt that he was very witty, so he handed the black cloth to Dongfang Bubai, and took out another one to cover his face, as a demonstration for the other party.
Dongfang Bubai secretly complained about Ranqi's stupid and cute behavior, and couldn't help it. He wanted to tease him, so he turned his hands away, turned his mind slightly, and put a half-face mask of unknown material on his hand.
"Then, I have this." He said, holding the mask in his hand, covering the upper half of his face.
Ran Qi was completely stunned, this is simply too fast. Fortunately, he was stupidly thinking of countermeasures in the clothing store. It turned out that Dongfang Bubai had already prepared for it.Hanging his head dejectedly, he thought sullenly, no wonder Kao Valley will be wiped out, the original comfortable and closed life has long made them degenerate into stupidity.
Like a blow to the head, Ran Qi's last bit of reluctance was wiped away. He clenched his fists and knelt down on one knee, "Master, Ran Qi is willing to be a slave for life. From now on, he will never complain."
"Your sincerity, I already know that if there is any act of treason in the future, I will personally take your life." Dongfang Bubai raised his hand to support Ran Qi with his internal strength, secretly feeling relieved.
He was still wondering when the other party would put away the last trace of pride. Only when he let go completely, Ranqi could face up to and deal with the traitors in Kao Valley.Who would have thought that this guy had already thought through it just to go back and forth to buy a piece of clothing, so could he consider leaving the life of the last traitor to the little leader of the Ran family?Dongfang Bubai privately thought that it would be a bit boring to let someone else do the cleaning of the house, and it would be better to do it yourself.
"Okay, rest for three hours, and leave when you are ugly." At that time, people were dreaming and dreaming, and they responded to the sentence: when the moon is dark and the wind is high, killing people in the middle of the night, when no one sets fire.
When he was about to be ugly, Dongfang Bubai conceded his success and walked into Ranqi's room at the opposite door, waking him up from his sleep.
Ran Qi felt that he had never slept so soundly. When he opened his eyes and saw someone beside the bed, his mouth was covered when he almost yelled. He couldn't see the face of the person, but remembering that there was still a task, he blinked and signaled to the other person I will keep quiet.
Putting on new clothes in the dark, covering his face by the way, Ran Qi followed Dongfang Bubai to the window, and through the moonlight, finally saw the mask Dongfang Bubai was wearing.
Dongfang Bubai quietly opened the window, the street was very quiet, few people were there, he reached out his hand to stop Ranqi, jumped down, and then jumped up lightly, his clothes fluttered in the wind, and flew far away in an instant.
Ran Qi was so frightened by this speed that his face turned pale. He had never seen such a battle before. He usually thought it was amazing to see a man who could do some martial arts. The master had to accept this move.
His figure flitted to the sea of flowers, Dongfang Bubai took out the antidote with one hand and swallowed it, without giving Ranqi time to react, he stretched out his hand to grab it again, and walked into Kao Valley with his partner.
The scene in Kao Valley is a bit weird, it doesn't seem to be what Ranqi said, Dongfang Bubai put him down, raised his chin at a group of patrolling soldiers in the distance, "Why is there a garrison here? Are you sure you want to capture Kao Valley?" It's just traitors making trouble, there is no other conspiracy?"
"I don't know." Ran Qi replied dumbly, being hit again and again, he almost thought he was a fool.
"Look first to see if there are any traces of those traitors, and then investigate to find out what happened here." Dongfang Bubai quickly made a judgment. He had a hunch that these soldiers were not good people. How could the regular army of the imperial court be here? Stationed in a hidden place, not to mention that there is a natural barrier like Mimantian outside the valley, soldiers and flowers, the aura is always a bit inconsistent.
Sure enough, Ran Qi, who is familiar with the architecture of Kao Valley, led the way, and quickly found the whereabouts of the two traitors. Without saying a word, Dongfang Bubai quietly twisted the necks of the two people, causing the other party to die in a dream .
Seeing that the master killed two people ruthlessly, that snappy energy was easier than drinking saliva, Ran Qi swallowed involuntarily, and silently hypnotized herself, it's okay to provoke anyone, but don't provoke the master, the master is a high-risk group ah.
In the process of finding someone, Ran Qi happened to meet a traitor who was talking to a soldier, who seemed to be in charge, and Dongfang Bubai also noticed it. He raised his index finger between his lips and asked Ran Qi to be quiet. The person carefully used the perspective of the house to block it, and leaned forward to eavesdrop.
"How long will it take for this batch of weapons to be completed? The prince has already started an incident. In order not to delay the military aircraft, the time will be shortened."
"What the general said is that it's the fifth batch. Everyone understands that they are rushing to work day and night. I believe it will not delay the matter of the prince." The traitor said.
"That's good. You should know that soldiers take serving the country as their duty. Although I wanted to fight the enemy and make meritorious deeds, I was sent here by the prince. The matter has come to an end, and it must be completed."
"Don't worry, General. Huawang Valley is too close to Heishanji. You must avoid people's eyes and ears to avoid being discovered. Otherwise, you can keep those nymphomaniacs to work, and you won't kill them all. I believe the prince will sympathize with the general's difficulties."
The next words, the two didn't listen carefully, they looked at each other, they both saw each other's surprise, Dongfang Bubai saw the beginning, but didn't guess the end.He thought that these garrisons occupied Kao Valley because they discovered the use of the Black Mountain Stone, but it turned out to be a false alarm.
Waving the embroidery needle, Dongfang Bubai looked at the two corpses and planned to drag them to a hidden corner to hide with Ran Qi.A small bottle fell out of nowhere, Dongfang Bubai hurriedly caught it, and then System One told him that it contained bones and corpses, destroying corpses and destroying traces, necessary for killing people.
☆, Flower King Valley
The bottle body of the bottle is made of metal, with intricate patterns carved on it, lifelike, it can be said that the craftsmanship is exquisite and ingenious, it is not something in this world.But the moonlight was dim and the sky was dark, Ranqi didn't see how the bottle appeared, he just thought that Dongfang Bubai carried it with him and took it out just now.
There is a saying: A product produced by the system must be a high-quality product.
Although Dongfang Bubai had never heard of it, but he learned it by practicing it. He tilted the bottle slightly, leaned over and poured a small amount of powder on the two corpses on the ground. Soon, there was a hissing sound, visible to the naked eye. There were only two piles of fly ash left in the place of the corpse, and the effect was astonishing.
"This—" Isn't it too cruel?Ran Qi opened his mouth wide in surprise, and was so shocked that he couldn't even speak. He had to say that he once again deeply realized how inconsistent his master is. The more beautiful things are, the more poisonous they are. He must find an ugly one in the future. Mother-in-law, otherwise one day he will be played to death and there will be no one to collect the body. At that time, the master may say that he deserved it and asked for trouble.
Dongfang Bubai knew what he was thinking when he saw Ran Qina's virtue, and asked him in a low voice, "What? Are you scared?"
"It's really scary." Ran Qi admitted honestly, scratching his head, a little embarrassed, he felt that his liver was trembling with fright, and he smeared the master's face with a little black, but a person who knows current affairs is a hero, The master had already seen his reaction early on, so he still had nothing to hide.
If Dongfang Bubai knew that because of his ferocity, Ran Qi had already planned to smash the pot and smash it, and plan to be shameless in front of the master, he would definitely complain crazily. It's not that he doesn't blame him, but he is very innocent.
"Speaking of business, you heard what those two people said just now, what do you think?" Dongfang Bubai only eavesdropped on a small part of the conversation, and roughly guessed the context of the whole thing.
"Master, did these traitors collude with that certain prince? With the other party as a backer, our Kao Tani Clan will suffer this disaster." So many clansmen died, and such a big case couldn't afford to splash a lot of money.
"Okay, little brother, sit down." The beggar Xiaoqi didn't let Dongfang Bubai drive the carriage, but acted as a groom himself.
He was a bit arrogant at first, although his family was poor, he could not be moved by poverty and humbleness, he would rather be a beggar and starve his stomach than look at other people's winks, he would rather lose his skill in planting flowers from now on, and he would not take advantage of those evil people.But today his thoughts changed. Dongfang Bubai had never met him before, and when old man Miao made rude remarks and insulted him with words, he actually stood up to help him.This was probably the first person who was kind to him and extended a helping hand after he became homeless. He was willing to drive for such a person without any complaints.
Dongfang Bubai didn't know what the little beggar was thinking, so he sat in the corner of the carriage obediently. To him, it didn't matter who was driving the carriage. If it wasn't for the distraction of people, he would put the carriage and flowers into the attached space together, so as not to waste time. Looking at the flowers and plants in this car, bumping back and forth, the quality of the flowers and plants will definitely be compromised in the end.
There is a horse tie post on the side in front of Xiaoyao Pavilion, fasten the carriage, Dongfang Bubai sees two guards standing in front of the gate, with serious expressions, standing tall and straight, like two door gods, but there is no need to worry about the flowers and plants on the carriage being killed by others. Take the opportunity to steal it.
The beggar Xiaoqi obviously noticed this too, and simply led Dongfang Bubai into the Xiaoyao Pavilion. Once inside, there was an unusually wide hall, and not far from the door, there was a counter.There were a few people sitting behind the counter, who seemed to be guys from Xiaoyao Pavilion or something, and their clothes were exactly the same as those at the door.And behind the guys, there is a huge scroll with eight large characters written on it, "Mission reward, bounty hunter", signed in Xiaoyao Pavilion.
Looking around, there were quite a few scrolls hanging in the hall, some of which were surrounded by a few people, Dongfang Bubai looked at the beggar Xiao Qi, "What are those scrolls for?"
The beggar Xiaoqi also came in and planned to do some reward tasks to earn some steamed bun money, so he had learned about this place before, but after a few days, he didn't see any suitable tasks for him, so he gave up the idea, An Fen Be a beggar.
As an insider who has never done a mission, Beggar Xiaoqi feels extremely ashamed. He is just explaining purely, but he is still useful.Approaching a scroll and flipping it in front of Dongfang Bubai, he explained, "These scrolls are in five colors: black, red, yellow, purple, and white. Each color represents a mission level. Black is the highest and the most difficult. White is the lowest and easiest."
Looking at the contents on the yellow scroll in his hand, Dongfang Bubai felt amused. He didn't expect that the Xiaoyao Pavilion even included criminals who were offered a reward by the imperial court.
"Xiaoyao Pavilion is still offering rewards for important criminals from the court?"
"Yes."
Dongfang Bubai had just finished asking the beggar Xiaoqi, and before he could answer, there was a deep answer from behind, and the two turned around at the same time, looking at the person who came.
I saw the visitor holding a fan with a poem of Happy Journey written on the fan, and looking at his face and make-up, he was dressed in white clothes, looking as graceful as a fairy, coupled with that ordinary face without any obvious features, it made people lose interest , forget it at a glance.
"Being Xiaoyao next time, I'm being polite here."
Ren Xiaoyao bowed his hand as a salute, Dongfang Bubai didn't know his purpose of striking up a conversation, but he knew that he would not hit a smiley face with his hand, so he bowed his hand casually as a greeting.
"I think my little brother is Mian Shan, but I don't know how to call him? Have we met?" Ren Xiaoyao felt that Dongfang Bubai's face was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he met him for a while.
Dongfang Bubai's heart trembled, he thought he had met someone he knew from the original body, but let Ren Xiaoyao not know him for sure, so he was relieved, and said politely, "My surname is Dongfang, I don't know you."
Ren Xiaoyao was in a daze, it was the first time he had heard the surname Dongfang, and felt that he had probably misunderstood the wrong person, and there were more than one or two similar people in the world, which was not unusual.
"I'm being rude, little brother." Ren Xiaoyao apologized, then turned to look at the scroll in Dongfang Bubai's hands, thought about it, and enthusiastically explained to him, "Many people in the world don't want to deal with people in the court, so Xiaoyao Pavilion will accept the government's reward, and then release it as a task, and finally Xiaoyao Pavilion will draw [-]% of the government's reward."
His explanation was clear and clear, Dongfang Bubai nodded in thanks, "Thank you."
"Brother, please take a look. The five-color surface represents the difficulty of the task. In essence, yellow is not included, because yellow is only used in government reward tasks." Ren Xiaoyao pointed at the task with the fan in his hand. Pointing to the top of the scroll.
Following his instructions, Dongfang Bubai read the missions announced under the yellow scroll one by one, and it was exactly as Ren Xiaoyao said.He had seen scrolls of other colors, and probably understood how these were divided.
There are only black, purple, and white colors that really divide the task level. The black scroll represents the long task time, many dangers, and you may lose your life. Of course, the high risk is accompanied by a huge bounty; High, large quantity, acceptable to most capable people; white scrolls are usually some labor or temporary employment tasks, mainly for ordinary people, such as hiring people to harvest during the autumn harvest, building houses and hiring masons, etc.
As for the remaining red and yellow scrolls, he already knew that the yellow scroll represented the government, so what would the red represent?After Dongfang Bubai observed carefully, he found that there was an expedited sign on the red scrolls, which were probably time-limited missions.
Dongfang Bubai is very interested in the mission released by Xiaoyao Pavilion, especially the official reward on the yellow scroll. The amount is so large that it is difficult not to be tempted. In addition to his great martial arts, it is still easy to catch a few thieves and bandits. It's just that he doesn't like to run around, and based on this, it's a bit unsightly.Thinking that I still have a lot of things to do, I am not in a hurry at all, but if I can get the portraits of those criminals, it is also a way to catch them when I meet them in the future.
Having made up his mind, he wanted to ask Ren Xiaoyao, and he suddenly realized that when he heard the name Ren Xiaoyao, he would most likely be the owner of the Xiaoyao Pavilion. As long as this guy agreed, wouldn't the matter be half done?
Ren Xiaoyao seemed to have the ability to read minds, before he could open his mouth, he asked softly, "Brother Dongfang, do you want the portrait of the important criminal who is rewarded by the government?"
Dongfang Bubai had a puzzled expression on his face, and a trace of alertness rose in his heart. This Xiaoyao seemed ordinary, no different from a scholar, but in fact he was astute in observation and as careful as a silk thread. One must know that he could become the master of Xiaoyao Pavilion in Heishan, and with the words " The word "Xiaoyao" is used as the name of a workshop, which itself cannot be taken lightly.
His identity is full of doubts. It is said that one thought becomes a demon, one thought becomes a Buddha. He doesn't know whether that unknown life experience will bring him great wealth, or is it dangerous and noble. If he cherishes life and practice, he should stay away from such deep-minded people.
"Your Majesty has this intention. I wonder if Mr. Ren can agree." After thinking and thinking, Dongfang Bubai added a few words of explanation with a wry smile, in order to show that he was greedy for life and afraid of death, "I saw a lot of yellow scrolls just now, those There are so many vicious and vicious people, so it is reasonable to avoid them, but this appearance is easy to cause trouble, so asking for more portraits can be regarded as confidence and comfort, and it is easier to guard against it when you see it."
Ren Xiaoyao seemed to believe his words, nodded with a smile, and led him and the beggar Xiaoqi to the counter, "My Xiaoyao Pavilion is open for business after all, so if Brother Dongfang wants a portrait, he must Bought it for money."
"It should be so." Dongfang Bubai couldn't help but admire Xiaoyao Pavilion's way of doing business. I'm afraid those important criminals have made a lot of money because of the portraits before they are caught.
"Ah Fu, get this little brother the portrait of the important criminal that the government has offered a reward for."
"Which case?" The man named Ah Fu took out a thick book, which recorded in detail the history of the cases committed by the wanted people.
Dongfang Bubai pretended to be hesitant, and said after a while, "All of them."
As soon as these words came out, Ah Fu stopped his movements and raised his head in surprise. Although the missions offered by the government as rewards were not listed in the black scroll, they are definitely dangerous enough if classified according to the mission level. Therefore, Xiaoyao Pavilion has been established since its establishment. There has never been a person who has taken all the yellow scroll tasks in one go.
Ren Xiaoyao also looked at Dongfang Bubai in astonishment, and even forgot to shake the paper fan in his hand, but when he thought of what Dongfang Bubai said before, he suddenly understood, but in his staggered eyes, there was a ray of deep thought, faith Believe it or not, probably only he himself knows.
"One piece of five taels of silver, a total of seventeen copies, and a fee of 85 taels." Ah Fu flipped through the books for a while, compared the books in his hand, and quickly pulled out a few folds of thin paper books in the shape of folders, placed them on the counter, and pulled them to the side of the counter The abacus flicked and flicked, and the total price was obtained.
Beggar Xiaoqi followed Dongfang Bubai, feeling that he couldn't keep up with the rhythm at all, seeing that he was about to pay, he hurriedly stopped him and said, "Little brother, what are you doing with so much money, those people don't dare to go out on the street openly, maybe I can’t even come across any of them.” That’s five taels of silver, and how long it takes for ordinary people to save up.
"Not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. After all, I am more afraid of death." Dongfang Bubai replied meaningfully, still took out the silver and gave it to Ah Fu.
I took a paper folder and flipped through it for a while, the first one was the portrait of the wanted criminal, and the crimes he committed were written on the next few pages. According to the nature of the case, we can probably guess the degree of danger. Xiaoyao Pavilion made these The carefulness makes it clear at a glance.
Gathering the folders together, Dongfang Bubai waved his hand and told the beggar Xiao Qi, "Xiao Qi put these on the cart, let's go."
Ren Xiaoyao didn't know why, so he walked out of the gate and saw that the carriage they were driving was extremely shabby, so he knocked on his hand twice before turning back to Xiaoyao Pavilion.
☆、Kao dye seven
Beggar Xiaoqi drove the carriage slowly, still annoyed by Dongfang Bubai's behavior in Xiaoyao Pavilion, he felt that if he hadn't led Dongfang Bubai there, the other party would not have lost nearly a hundred taels of silver in vain.
The more he thinks about it, the more he blames himself, but the matter has come to this point, there is nothing he can do now, on one side is the noble brother, who is kind-hearted and fights against injustices, and on the other side is the Xiaoyao Pavilion, which is powerful and unpredictable, and he cannot control it.
"Brother, where are we going next?"
In fact, Dongfang Bubai no longer had the intention to go shopping anymore. Seeing that the sky was getting late, he thought that he planned to accept the little beggar before, and he would be too late to return to Anning County, so he could only find an inn to rest for the night, and return tomorrow.
"Find an inn to stay for one night, and make plans later."
When staying in the hotel, Dongfang Bubai asked for two rooms, and seeing the beggar Xiao Qi looking over in confusion, he explained, "The other room is for you, I have something to ask."
"Thank you noble brother." The beggar Xiaoqi bowed deeply to him, Dongfang Bubai's attitude was too indifferent, so he couldn't feel the slightest hint of pity and sympathy.
This is the inferiority of human beings. When the tiger is in peace and in trouble, once others show enthusiasm, they can't help but wonder if the other party has other plans, but in a blink of an eye, others become cold and lonely, and they will be careless instead. Receptive to help from others.
The shop waiter led the way and came to the herringbone store on the second floor of the inn. The room arranged for Dongfang Bubai and the beggar Xiaoqi happened to be at the opposite door, "Guest, these two rooms are for the two of you, what else do you need?" Then, the waiter also helped to open the door of a guest room.
Dongfang Bubai walked into the guest room, turned his head and told the waiter, "Bring some food over here."
"Hey, the little one will be delivered right away. Waiter, you can rest. If you need it, you can go downstairs to call for someone." The shop waiter agreed, and after saying a few more words, he left the guest room and went to the kitchen to urge dinner.
After watching Xiao Er from the store go out, Dongfang Bubai pointed to the chair by the table and motioned for Xiao Qi, the beggar, "Sit down, let's have a chat."
Beggar Xiaoqi didn't know why, so he could only obey orders, and awkwardly chose a seat a little far away from Dongfang Bubai to sit down.
Seeing this, Dongfang Bubai didn't say much, just tapped on the table, and after attracting the attention of the beggar Xiaoqi, he said, "Xiaoqi, from the words of old man Miao today, I roughly know that you can plant flowers and plants?"
"Well, not only can I, but I can say that I am very good at it." Speaking of flowers and plants, the beggar Xiaoqi became more confident, and he no longer hunched over his body. His back was straight and straight. No one dares to call the number one the number two.
Regarding his change, Dongfang Bubai remained calm and continued, "I am a doctor, and I intend to build a garden dedicated to planting flowers and herbs. I need someone who knows how to take care of it. I wonder if Xiao Qi is interested?"
The beggar Xiaoqi was stunned for a moment, he never thought that just being a tour guide, after a meal, he would eventually develop into Dongfang Bubai and wanted to hire him, "This—I'm just a stinky beggar, isn't my brother afraid of being cheated by me. "
Shaking his head, Dongfang Bubai pointed to his temple with a smile, "I've been observing all this way."
Hearing is believing, seeing is believing, the old man Miao deceived him at a high price, and the time at the Xiaoyao Pavilion counter was enough to let Dongfang Bubai know the character of the beggar Xiaoqi, and the good impression he had at the dinner table for the first time. An honest person who is easy to satisfy, not greedy, has a bottom line and insists on himself, why doesn't he use it?
The beggar Xiao Qi wanted to agree, but then he thought of the bloody feud he was carrying, shook his head again, and refused, "Your kindness, Xiao Qi has accepted it, but the revenge has not been avenged, and I can't help myself. Little brother, with good intentions, I really dare not bring you into trouble."
"Oh? Xiaoqi is too polite, I wonder if you can tell me about this?"
"This—" Beggar Xiao Qi obviously hesitated, feeling extremely entangled in his heart.
Dongfang Bubai, a young master of fire, added another firewood and said, "Xiao Qi doesn't want to be a beggar all the time, does he? If this continues, revenge is a small thing, and starving to death is a big thing."
Knowing that Dongfang Bubai's words were justified, the beggar Xiaoqi slowly told the truth, "My full name is Ranqi, and I am the current owner of Kao Valley, the seventh generation descendant of the Ran family..."
It turns out that somewhere in the dense forest of the Black Mountain, there is a hidden canyon, known as Kao Valley, and the little beggar Ranqi has lived in this Kao Valley since he was a child.According to legend, the ancestors of the dye family once found this place by accident when their family migrated to escape the war. At that time, the valley was full of flowers, blooming one after another, as if to welcome the dye family. Therefore, the ancestors of the dye family sighed that it was a fairyland, so they decided to , settle here.
Dealing with the flowers in the valley all day long, gradually the dye family developed the practice of using flowers as tea, eating flowers, and using flowers to smoke clothes. Later, in order to inspire future generations, they even increased entertainment activities in the valley. They also established Flora Festival.The Flower God Festival takes the ninth day of each season as the official day, which is taken from the saying that ninety-nine return to one. At that time, the members of the Ran clan will sing and dance to celebrate the comfortable life brought to them by the Flower God.
At first, there was a dance of fighting flowers, and then it developed into a battle of Kao every three months. There is no distinction between the descendants of the Ran clan.
After two generations in this way, a new hidden worry gradually emerged. Although Kao Valley is good, but it is closed and does not marry outsiders, sooner or later there will be problems.So after discussion by the tribe, the patriarch sent someone out to buy young slaves, and they came back specially for marriage.But those who were sold as slaves had seen the prosperity of the outside world, so how could they be willing to stay in Kao Valley, where the folk customs are simple and the news is backward.
Therefore, there was an incident of married slaves escaping. In order to prevent similar incidents from happening again, the patriarch ordered people to plant a large area of Mimantian outside Kao Valley.
Mimantian, as the name suggests, half a mile in the sky is lost, its fragrance is poisonous, within half a mile of the flower plant, no matter whether you hold your breath and cover your nose, it will not work, it can make people unconscious, just like being in an illusion.What's more ingenious is that the petals of Mimantian are the antidote, as long as you put the petals of Mimantian in your mouth, you can walk through the range of its fragrance soberly, which only the patriarchs and elders of the minority know.
After that, escapes still happened from time to time, but every time those who escaped would get lost in the sea of flowers, and no one dared to try again in the end.
After so many years, the old patriarch passed away, and the new patriarch took charge. His style of doing things was completely different from his predecessor's.He once said: The war has passed, and now the peaceful and prosperous world is the time when the members of the Ran clan were born.
As a result, some clansmen stayed in the valley and continued farming and women weaving. The new patriarch led willing clansmen out of Kao Valley and went outside to publicize the Flower God Festival, start Kao Hegemony, and promote their flowers and plants.
In this generation alone, the Flower God Festival is famous far and wide, and the Kao Competition is the highest honor that craftsmen compete to participate in. Those who are not members of the Ran clan and who win the name of Kao can become registered disciples of the Ran clan.
Huawang Valley was originally the settlement of the Ran clan, and because of the decision to accept disciples with other surnames, it was soon no longer hidden. There were many incompetent people in the clan, and there were also talented people among the disciples with other surnames, gradually, dissatisfaction arose.Until the sixth generation patriarch of Kao Valley, the suspicion escalated and finally turned into civil strife.
The cause of the incident was that a disciple with a foreign surname killed a disciple of the Ran family because of love and hatred, and was expelled from Kao Valley by the sixth-generation patriarch.In addition, the disciple with a surname did not give up after that, but intensified, colluding with other disciples with a different surname who had long been dissatisfied in the valley, and quickly amassing money to strengthen his power.
Forbearance for more than ten years, finally half a year ago, they did not know where Mi Mantian's solution was, and in the dead of night, they led a lot of martial arts people to attack Kao Valley in one fell swoop, killing and injuring countless members of the Ran clan, and finally sent him out, so far , Kao Valley changed hands.
"Now I'm the only one left in the Ran clan." Ran Qi had already said that his face was full of tears. In the past six months, he had tasted the warmth and coldness of human relationships. Talking to him again, the ten years of brotherhood between teachers and brothers becomes extremely ridiculous.
Pity for so many of his clansmen, including the masters of those traitors, and the babies who are waiting to be made up, all of them disappeared overnight.
After hearing his story, Dongfang Bubai sighed a little. The ambition of the new patriarch was doomed to a tragic ending at this time. He also wanted to build the Nether Palace, so he should learn from the lessons of the Ran clan.Otherwise, tomorrow's Nether Sect will be Yuhi's Kao Valley, which completely violates the meaning of the Nether Sect's existence.
"You do things for me, and I'll avenge you, how about it?" Dongfang Bubai crushed a corner of the table, and the bit of wood instantly turned into powder in his hands.
Thinking of avenging and killing people for people, the killing of evil people should also be considered a good deed, which is a good deed, but he couldn't make up his mind, Dongfang Bubai called System No. [-] in his mind, "System, a member of the Kao Guran Clan Hundreds of people have been slaughtered, if I kill the murderer, is this good or evil?"
"The treacherous and the wicked can be punished by everyone. This is good, and the host can do it."
"drop--
The host triggers the task: kill with killing.
Task content: More than two hundred people in Kao Valley were brutally murdered overnight, and the grievances cannot be relieved. The host can quickly hunt down the murderer and comfort the spirit of the deceased. "
Ran Qi was originally afraid that Dongfang Bubai would cause trouble to his upper body, but when he saw that he easily crushed a corner of the table, he thought: This is not a weak little brother, he is obviously much stronger than many masters.
"it is good."
Ran Qi's single word uttered, accomplished everything he carried on his own, accomplished Dongfang Bubai's mood of recruiting capable people and strangers, and even accomplished the life and death of everyone in Kao Valley today.
"Misty Mantian's antidote, can you still get it?"
Ran Qi took out a porcelain bottle, handed it over, and said, "The reason why the clansmen sent me out desperately was not because they were aimless. I am immune to the fragrance of the sky." Only the previous patriarch knew this. When in the sea of flowers, he would always eat pills made from Mimantian flower petals to pretend, if not, those traitors would probably not let him go.
Taking the bottle, Dongfang Bubai smiled lightly, "That's good, tonight, we'll explore Kao Valley at night." With his current martial arts, even with Ran Qi as a burden, he can still come and go freely.
"En!" Ran Qi solemnly nodded, vowing secretly in his heart that if the vengeance was avenged, he would have nothing to worry about, and for the rest of his life, he would devote himself to managing the plantation for Dongfang Bubai and repay his kindness of rebuilding.
Just at this moment, with a squeak, the waiter pushed open the door and came in with a tray in his hand, "Excuse me, guest, your meals are ready."
After putting the food on the table and putting it away, the waiter walked out again, "Please wait for the customers, please take my leave."
The shop waiter came and went quickly, Ran Qi was worried about what he heard, and frowned again, but Dongfang Bubai didn't care at all, picked up the chopsticks and urged, "Eat quickly, you should be hungry by now."
Ran Qi swallowed a mouthful of white rice, quite worried, even forgot to pick up the food, Dongfang Bubai shook his head helplessly, and had to comfort him, "Don't worry, the waiter didn't hear our conversation." With his current hearing and perception Let alone a commoner who doesn't know martial arts, even a master who is good at concealing his aura has nothing to hide.
"I'll go out in a while to buy some clothes, and come back to freshen up." Dongfang Bubai had just eaten two mouthfuls, and when he remembered something, he looked at Ran Qi's tattered clothes and said.
"Why?" Before he did anything for Dongfang Bubai, the other party was already taking care of food and clothing, feeling a little flustered.
"After all, Kao Valley is the place where your clan members have lived for several generations. It can be said to be your ancestral land. If you enter the valley wearing a beggar's uniform, you won't lose face to your ancestors?" Dongfang Bubai compared his heart, as if he had After waiting for future generations, they probably died of anger many times.
"Oh, thank you." Not only is it embarrassing, but the old ancestor will crawl out of the grave in anger and strangle his unfilial and useless offspring to death.
☆, the king will not be the king
Dongfang Bubai called the shop waiter, told him to put away the dishes, threw some pieces of silver to Ran Qi, and sent him out to buy clothes for himself.
Heishanji is not a county seat, there is no wall, and there is no need to close the city. Therefore, even at night, there are many merchants coming and going, and most of the shops on the street will not close until the early morning.Looking from the window, the lights of thousands of households are on and off, winding into a long dragon, like a city that never sleeps. Dongfang Bubai realized once again that this world is different.
System One, who had been silent for a long time, seemed to have sensed his thoughts. At this moment, he ran out and said disdainfully, "This is nothing at all. The development of technology and the emergence of electric lights are the real night without night."
System One often said things he couldn't understand, and Dongfang Bubai didn't care. Today, he has roughly understood the boundaries between good and evil. As long as he doesn't kill innocent people indiscriminately, it can be said that after his rebirth, he can still live in a secluded boudoir , live in peace.
Thinking that Ran Qi would not come back for a while, Dongfang Bubai sat cross-legged on the bed and began to meditate. He has always understood that only the strong have the right to speak, even if this pure yin body has outstanding talents However, if you want to be as beautiful as a forest, you will have to pay a hundredfold effort.It just so happened that he possessed and achieved the experience of his previous life, excellent body, and unremitting practice.
Dongfang Bubai's meditation is very boring. Leaving aside the fact that Ranqi walked out of the inn with the money, he didn't look around for shopping.
The lanterns in front of the clothing store are flickering and flickering, and the halo is dim. The shopkeeper probably has already eaten his dinner. He is standing behind the counter with his chin dragging, nodding his head in a sleepy position. Yawning, no one noticed Ranqi's arrival.
Ran Qi walked into the clothing store, came to the counter, and lightly tapped on the solid wood panel of the counter, "Shopkeeper, it's time to greet the customers."
The shopkeeper was awakened by the sound, very annoyed, looked up and saw Ran Qi in tattered beggar clothes, and was about to curse, but shut his mouth abruptly after Ran Qi took out a piece of broken silver.
In an instant, the shopkeeper performed a Sichuan opera face-changing. His eyes were crooked, he was smiling, and his tone was flattering, comparable to a movie king. "Guest, do you want to see ready-to-wear? This way please."
The shopkeeper didn't dislike Ran Qi's shabby clothes anymore, he walked out of the counter courteously, and even slapped the guy who was fighting Zhou Gong on the forehead.
Ran Qi followed the shopkeeper's guidance and looked at the men's ready-to-wear clothes hanging on the wall. They were all long gowns and gowns. For him who often played with flowers and plants, digging and filling mud, it seemed a bit empty but impractical.After looking around, I finally spotted a set of trousers and shorts. When I got closer, I found that the whole set of clothes was worn on a wooden figure.
"Just this style, according to my size, I need two sets of dark colors." Ran Qi pointed to the wooden man and said to the shopkeeper.
"Okay." The shopkeeper responded with a nod, then turned around and called the waiter, "Little Si, give the customer a measurement."
Although rich is a gentleman, but Ranqi is dirty all over, the shopkeeper is really in a panic, he doesn't want to come forward, so he asks the clerk to push it up, anyway, it's just a measurement, and he didn't offend the customer.
After measuring the size, the shopkeeper went to the inner room to get the clothes in person, and while Ranqi was waiting, he suddenly thought of visiting Kao Valley at night.Those traitors all recognize his appearance, plus Dongfang Bubai, with vermilion between his brows, and he is beautiful, making people unforgettable. Ran Qixi is terrified, and suddenly feels that if the two of them meet night watchmen in Kao Valley , is the rhythm of complete exposure.
Ran Qi thought about it, but he didn't expect that the reason why Dongfang Bubai dared to take him to Kao Valley was not only relying on his first-class skills, but also his previous experience as a monster fighting against heroes in his previous life.It doesn't matter to Dongfang Bubai if his face is seen, he just needs to kill him. Anyway, the mission given to him by System One is to kill and stop killing, so why not slaughter Kao Valley?
He struggled until the shopkeeper brought two sets of ready-made clothes, Ran Qi didn't think of a solution, and he didn't bother to observe the shopkeeper's slight reaction, so he directly pulled a short-fronted top and put it on.The shopkeeper's eyes jumped wildly, he was completely stunned by his heroic actions, his heart was thumping, and he was about to fly out of his throat. He was afraid that Ran Qi would try on the clothes but suddenly say no, then he would really cry and cry. up.
"It fits just right." Ranqi is still young, and has never bought clothes alone. Kao Valley has a special person to sew clothes, so they don't need to worry about it, so he didn't ask the price, and directly threw a piece of silver to the shopkeeper, " checkout."
Fortunately, the ready-made clothes he chose were not made of satin, but a kind of thick mixed coarse cloth, which was specially worn by ordinary people for work. People with better economic conditions would choose this kind of cloth to make clothes. Generally, coarse cloth is slightly more expensive, wear-resistant and comfortable.
"One set of ready-made clothes in this shop costs [-] renminbi, and you will be charged one tael or six for two sets. The change is four, please take it away." The shopkeeper took the two taels of silver and gave the change to Ran Qi.
Seeing that the deal was completed, the man pulled a piece of black cloth and helped Ran Qi wrap his clothes. Just as he was about to hand it to him, he saw Ran Qi's eyes shining brightly, staring at him brightly.Shrinking his neck in fright, the man didn't know why, so he could only ask in a trembling voice.
"Guest, what's the problem?"
"Shopkeeper, can you tear off another piece of black cloth for wrapping my clothes?" Pointing to the small bundle in the hands of the clerk, Ran Qi looked excited.
Startled by his enthusiastic and excited voice, the shopkeeper curled his lips, didn't say much after all, waved his hand at the clerk, just wanted to dismiss Ran Qi quickly, he had to see a doctor right away if such customers came a few more times .
The clerk also had lingering fears, and quickly tore a piece of black cloth, stuffed it into Ranqi together with the previous ready-made clothes, and said to the guest, "Guests, go slowly."
Ran Qi was thinking about the arrangements for the evening, but he didn't hear the clerk chasing people away at all, so he left with his things in his arms.When he returned to the inn, he still felt that he was very witty, so he handed the black cloth to Dongfang Bubai, and took out another one to cover his face, as a demonstration for the other party.
Dongfang Bubai secretly complained about Ranqi's stupid and cute behavior, and couldn't help it. He wanted to tease him, so he turned his hands away, turned his mind slightly, and put a half-face mask of unknown material on his hand.
"Then, I have this." He said, holding the mask in his hand, covering the upper half of his face.
Ran Qi was completely stunned, this is simply too fast. Fortunately, he was stupidly thinking of countermeasures in the clothing store. It turned out that Dongfang Bubai had already prepared for it.Hanging his head dejectedly, he thought sullenly, no wonder Kao Valley will be wiped out, the original comfortable and closed life has long made them degenerate into stupidity.
Like a blow to the head, Ran Qi's last bit of reluctance was wiped away. He clenched his fists and knelt down on one knee, "Master, Ran Qi is willing to be a slave for life. From now on, he will never complain."
"Your sincerity, I already know that if there is any act of treason in the future, I will personally take your life." Dongfang Bubai raised his hand to support Ran Qi with his internal strength, secretly feeling relieved.
He was still wondering when the other party would put away the last trace of pride. Only when he let go completely, Ranqi could face up to and deal with the traitors in Kao Valley.Who would have thought that this guy had already thought through it just to go back and forth to buy a piece of clothing, so could he consider leaving the life of the last traitor to the little leader of the Ran family?Dongfang Bubai privately thought that it would be a bit boring to let someone else do the cleaning of the house, and it would be better to do it yourself.
"Okay, rest for three hours, and leave when you are ugly." At that time, people were dreaming and dreaming, and they responded to the sentence: when the moon is dark and the wind is high, killing people in the middle of the night, when no one sets fire.
When he was about to be ugly, Dongfang Bubai conceded his success and walked into Ranqi's room at the opposite door, waking him up from his sleep.
Ran Qi felt that he had never slept so soundly. When he opened his eyes and saw someone beside the bed, his mouth was covered when he almost yelled. He couldn't see the face of the person, but remembering that there was still a task, he blinked and signaled to the other person I will keep quiet.
Putting on new clothes in the dark, covering his face by the way, Ran Qi followed Dongfang Bubai to the window, and through the moonlight, finally saw the mask Dongfang Bubai was wearing.
Dongfang Bubai quietly opened the window, the street was very quiet, few people were there, he reached out his hand to stop Ranqi, jumped down, and then jumped up lightly, his clothes fluttered in the wind, and flew far away in an instant.
Ran Qi was so frightened by this speed that his face turned pale. He had never seen such a battle before. He usually thought it was amazing to see a man who could do some martial arts. The master had to accept this move.
His figure flitted to the sea of flowers, Dongfang Bubai took out the antidote with one hand and swallowed it, without giving Ranqi time to react, he stretched out his hand to grab it again, and walked into Kao Valley with his partner.
The scene in Kao Valley is a bit weird, it doesn't seem to be what Ranqi said, Dongfang Bubai put him down, raised his chin at a group of patrolling soldiers in the distance, "Why is there a garrison here? Are you sure you want to capture Kao Valley?" It's just traitors making trouble, there is no other conspiracy?"
"I don't know." Ran Qi replied dumbly, being hit again and again, he almost thought he was a fool.
"Look first to see if there are any traces of those traitors, and then investigate to find out what happened here." Dongfang Bubai quickly made a judgment. He had a hunch that these soldiers were not good people. How could the regular army of the imperial court be here? Stationed in a hidden place, not to mention that there is a natural barrier like Mimantian outside the valley, soldiers and flowers, the aura is always a bit inconsistent.
Sure enough, Ran Qi, who is familiar with the architecture of Kao Valley, led the way, and quickly found the whereabouts of the two traitors. Without saying a word, Dongfang Bubai quietly twisted the necks of the two people, causing the other party to die in a dream .
Seeing that the master killed two people ruthlessly, that snappy energy was easier than drinking saliva, Ran Qi swallowed involuntarily, and silently hypnotized herself, it's okay to provoke anyone, but don't provoke the master, the master is a high-risk group ah.
In the process of finding someone, Ran Qi happened to meet a traitor who was talking to a soldier, who seemed to be in charge, and Dongfang Bubai also noticed it. He raised his index finger between his lips and asked Ran Qi to be quiet. The person carefully used the perspective of the house to block it, and leaned forward to eavesdrop.
"How long will it take for this batch of weapons to be completed? The prince has already started an incident. In order not to delay the military aircraft, the time will be shortened."
"What the general said is that it's the fifth batch. Everyone understands that they are rushing to work day and night. I believe it will not delay the matter of the prince." The traitor said.
"That's good. You should know that soldiers take serving the country as their duty. Although I wanted to fight the enemy and make meritorious deeds, I was sent here by the prince. The matter has come to an end, and it must be completed."
"Don't worry, General. Huawang Valley is too close to Heishanji. You must avoid people's eyes and ears to avoid being discovered. Otherwise, you can keep those nymphomaniacs to work, and you won't kill them all. I believe the prince will sympathize with the general's difficulties."
The next words, the two didn't listen carefully, they looked at each other, they both saw each other's surprise, Dongfang Bubai saw the beginning, but didn't guess the end.He thought that these garrisons occupied Kao Valley because they discovered the use of the Black Mountain Stone, but it turned out to be a false alarm.
Waving the embroidery needle, Dongfang Bubai looked at the two corpses and planned to drag them to a hidden corner to hide with Ran Qi.A small bottle fell out of nowhere, Dongfang Bubai hurriedly caught it, and then System One told him that it contained bones and corpses, destroying corpses and destroying traces, necessary for killing people.
☆, Flower King Valley
The bottle body of the bottle is made of metal, with intricate patterns carved on it, lifelike, it can be said that the craftsmanship is exquisite and ingenious, it is not something in this world.But the moonlight was dim and the sky was dark, Ranqi didn't see how the bottle appeared, he just thought that Dongfang Bubai carried it with him and took it out just now.
There is a saying: A product produced by the system must be a high-quality product.
Although Dongfang Bubai had never heard of it, but he learned it by practicing it. He tilted the bottle slightly, leaned over and poured a small amount of powder on the two corpses on the ground. Soon, there was a hissing sound, visible to the naked eye. There were only two piles of fly ash left in the place of the corpse, and the effect was astonishing.
"This—" Isn't it too cruel?Ran Qi opened his mouth wide in surprise, and was so shocked that he couldn't even speak. He had to say that he once again deeply realized how inconsistent his master is. The more beautiful things are, the more poisonous they are. He must find an ugly one in the future. Mother-in-law, otherwise one day he will be played to death and there will be no one to collect the body. At that time, the master may say that he deserved it and asked for trouble.
Dongfang Bubai knew what he was thinking when he saw Ran Qina's virtue, and asked him in a low voice, "What? Are you scared?"
"It's really scary." Ran Qi admitted honestly, scratching his head, a little embarrassed, he felt that his liver was trembling with fright, and he smeared the master's face with a little black, but a person who knows current affairs is a hero, The master had already seen his reaction early on, so he still had nothing to hide.
If Dongfang Bubai knew that because of his ferocity, Ran Qi had already planned to smash the pot and smash it, and plan to be shameless in front of the master, he would definitely complain crazily. It's not that he doesn't blame him, but he is very innocent.
"Speaking of business, you heard what those two people said just now, what do you think?" Dongfang Bubai only eavesdropped on a small part of the conversation, and roughly guessed the context of the whole thing.
"Master, did these traitors collude with that certain prince? With the other party as a backer, our Kao Tani Clan will suffer this disaster." So many clansmen died, and such a big case couldn't afford to splash a lot of money.
