Training Wu Zhou

Chapter 190: Undercurrent

Luoyang Yichuan County.

Yichuan County is adjacent to the main city of Luoyang in the north. Since its establishment in the late Sui Dynasty, a large number of floating population has gathered. Of course, this is not the so-called "flow of people" in later generations.

At this time, Yichuan County was much more prosperous than at the end of the Sui Dynasty. Although it was not an important military hub, it was the place where the state government resettled immigrants. The thriving small county on the banks of the Yi River seemed quite comfortable.

The streets and alleys in the middle of the county are full of chaotic dialect hawking, which is a unique original ecology of Yichuan at this time, and the locals are not surprised by it.

There is no such thing as a curfew in a small county. Unless there are special circumstances, it is not uncommon for street marketers to work until late at night, but there are very few. After all, the tradition of working at sunrise and resting at sunset is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The so-called trading, If someone sells it, someone must buy it.

At this time, the sun was setting, and the hawkers put away their stalls one after another, and settled their income for the day.

But at the mouth of the river, there is a fortune-telling booth that has not been closed for a long time. Divination and fortune-telling are not new.

If you really pretend to be "blind", then there will be fewer people who believe in it. At this time, what is important is the spirit of immortality, and the Taoist hexagrams that are out of the world are essential, and the owner of this fortune-telling booth has brought this point to the extreme. .

Although this person has an ordinary appearance, he looks about 40 years old, but the clothes on his body are neat, even the corners of the clothes are not wrinkled, and he has a long beard, which really looks a bit long.

I saw that the Taoist priest was silent, looking at the passers-by until the sky was dark.He didn't even have an order yet, so he slowly got up.Without saying a word, he tidied up his booth.

At this moment, a voice came from in front of him: "The stall is closed. Are you still alive?"

Hearing this voice, the Taoist priest raised his head and said, "Ling."

"Then give me a divination!" The visitor sat down without asking any questions, and directly stretched out his hand in front of the Taoist priest. The Taoist priest took the hand calmly, as if he was really looking carefully.

It took a long time to look at it, and a few people passing by stood there for a moment with great interest, and then walked away.Until the place was deserted, the fortune-teller smiled at the Taoist priest: "You son of a bitch, what are you looking at, don't look at it, you really think of yourself as a god?"

"Hush!" The Taoist priest was startled when he heard the words, hurriedly signaled to keep quiet, looked around twice, saw no one around, and then whispered: "Why are you here?"

"The big brother in charge is speaking. There is a batch of fresh goods that he can't eat, so let us eat too."

"What?" The Taoist priest was startled when he heard the words, and murmured.

Both of them speak a Western Shu dialect.It was very different from the authentic northern language just now, the visitor was a little younger than the Taoist priest, and was wearing short clothes.The face is full of smiles.

"What is he doing? I have guarded that woman here for three years, and now let me go? He is an immortal."

The Taoist priest seemed a little excited after he came back to his senses.Annoyed, the young man lowered his voice and laughed, "Don't say three years. Even in 30, 300 years, you still won't be able to eat such delicious fresh food."

The Taoist priest's eyes lit up when he heard the words, but his eyes were still on the young man's palm, and he said, "Then tell me, which one is it?"

Hearing this, the young man put away his smile, and said closer, "Tang Qubing!"

"Scared!" The Taoist priest's eyes froze when he heard the words, then he raised his head in shock, and looked at the young man in disbelief.

After a while, he came back to his senses and said, "I heard that it's still a doll."

"Are you soft-hearted?" The young man was taken aback when he heard the words, and then asked.

The Taoist priest smiled slightly when he heard the words, and said, "Then why does he want to eat that doll?"

"That son of a bitch, Xiu Mingtang, should be killed!" The young man responded immediately after hearing this, seeming a little annoyed.

The Taoist priest smiled even more when he heard the words: "Then do you know what Mingtang is?"

The young man who was still on the verge of excitement suddenly stopped his momentum when he heard the words, but this time he really stopped him. The young people in the Tang Sect have practiced strange and obscene skills since childhood. Except for a few talented people, all the brothers and sisters The general energy is focused on this aspect. Naturally, I don't know much about this kind of classic architecture. I only know that it is a waste of money and people.

So far, the identities of the two are ready to be revealed. The old and the young are also members of the Tang Sect. I have to say that the Tang Sect organization is indeed as terrifying as Tang Guan imagined. Compared with the religious groups of later generations, terrorist organizations do not give way. Hidden everywhere, whether in the marketplace or in the court, there are their shadows.

Seeing that the young man couldn't answer, the Taoist just kept smiling and didn't explain to him, but looked at his palm wholeheartedly.

"You are so lucky, bad!"

"Stop messing around, just say go or not!?" The young man finally couldn't bear his temper, and while staring at the Taoist priest, he stretched out his hand quickly.

The Taoist priest shook his head and smiled, got up and slowly packed up his booth. Seeing this, the young man asked anxiously, "What do you mean?"

The Taoist priest was silent when he heard the words, until he put the things in front of him into the box behind him, started to pass by the young man and said: "Kill!"

The young man was stunned for a moment when he heard the sound, then his face brightened, and he was about to turn his head to speak, but the moment he turned back, the figure of the Taoist priest had disappeared without a trace.

"Seven-Star Ghost Shadow Walk!" The young man shrank his pupils looking at the empty space ahead. People in the Tang Sect are good at tricks and killing people with poison. All of these need to save their lives as the foundation, so the first thing they have to learn is not how to kill people, but how to kill people. How to save your life.

In fact, the so-called martial arts, except Chang Ying and Ma Lie's forceful slashing and slashing, is more like magic.

Magic uses psychology and brain transmission to blind other people's eyes. The same is true for the walking and footwork in martial arts. They all send out the right force at the right angle, move to an incredible direction, and create illusions for others.

The young man knew that the priest might be behind him, or he might have gone far away, or he might even be right in front of him!

......

Chang'an, full house.

A young man sorted out the large and small packages in front of him. They were clean when they came, and many of the items they brought from home sank to the bottom of the river in the Jiangnan River accident.

But it has only been a few months, and when the boy packed it up, he found that there were so many extra things.

The young man had no one else, it was Xiaoqi who gave Tang Guan the order to tidy up, and just as he was tidying up, a crisp voice came from outside the door.

"Xiao Langjun, what are you?"

Xiao Qi looked back after hearing the words, and there was a girl with a medicinal cloth wrapped around her forehead standing in front of the door, Xiao Qi saw who was coming, and said calmly: "Why did you come out?"

The girl was dumbfounded when she heard the words, she was like air, Tang Guan really didn't tell her what to do, she was bored in the room these days and had nothing to do.

For a moment she didn't know how to respond to Xiao Qi, this woman was Shangguan Wan'er, at this time she saw Xiao Qi tidy up all the things in the room, she was quite puzzled.

Seeing that she was silent, Xiao Qi didn't say anything more, and continued to organize the parcels. Seeing this, Shangguan Wan'er approached the room, and said softly, "I will pack it myself."

"No need, it's already packed." Xiaoqi has always been indifferent to Shangguan Wan'er, and Tang Guan has been busy with foreign affairs, so he really didn't realize that his brother talked less and less, let alone that his every move became more and more serious. like yourself!

While Xiao Qi was talking, he walked towards the box in the room, wanting to check if there was anything missing, Xiao Qi looked down, and saw a bright light flickering faintly at the bottom of the empty box.

Xiao Qi was taken aback when he saw this, and then reached out to touch the bright light, his hands were cold, Xiao Qi lifted the things in his hands and observed them carefully.

Seeing this, Shangguan Wan'er also looked over, and couldn't help saying, "Cat's eye."

Over there, Xiaoqi Wenyin frowned, and saw that his hand was a round piece of jade, which was warm for an instant when he held it, and with the faint light, he could clearly see the roundness of different sizes inside.

"What is this?" Xiao Qi looked at the gem in front of him and said.

Shangguan Wan'er heard the words and responded, "Gem."

"Gem? Is it worth money?" Xiao Qi asked Wenyin.

Shangguan Wan'er was slightly taken aback, she only knew that gemstones were treasures, but it was hard to say whether they were worth money or not, Shangguan's family had a lot of treasures back then, and they were all worthless when the disaster was imminent.

Xiao Qi was originally a small pickpocket, but he only picks up some copper coins on the street. He dare not even think about jewelry and jade, and he couldn't help being interested at first sight.

I saw Xiaoqi's eyes flickering. Although he didn't know if it was worth money or not, it was very beautiful, and people liked it at first glance.

This is also one of the essences of treasures, that is, things that people who know how to do or those who don't know will like things, which complements what we said before "things that others don't have are treasures".

Just when Xiao Qi couldn't put it down, there was a sudden movement outside the door, Xiao Qi subconsciously wanted to put the gemstone in her arms, but she stopped immediately, casually threw it on the table, and walked out the door. (to be continued..)
