Wandering Sword Seller's Life in the Qin Dynasty

The Mo Family's Mechanical City is located on the border between the Yan and Qi states, and is itself close to the Qi state.

If he moves a little faster, he can reach the land of Sanghai in just a few days.

In addition, Sanghai also has a Mohist stronghold and is the headquarters of the Confucian school.

Going over there to take a look is also an option.

After the fall of Korea, the world situation changed drastically. He wanted to know how the Confucian school faced this sudden change, and how the various schools of thought should act in this turbulent situation.

……

Fatty Ding had no idea what kind of internal struggle the leader of the martial arts school had gone through.

He waited for a while.

He then saw the leader of the knights appear before him and ask him about something else.

"Is the person who sent you to deliver the message still in Sanghai?"

Fatty Ding shuddered and quickly replied, "He was still in Sanghai City when I left."

"That's good!"

The Six-Fingered Black Knight said in a deep voice, "There's no time like the present. In that case, I'll go to Sanghai with you."

Upon hearing this, Fatty Ding felt a chill run down his spine once more.

Is the Grand Master heading to Sanghai?

What exactly did that person write in that letter?

Fatty Ding had many questions in his mind, but he didn't dare to ask them directly.

Soon, some of the commanders in the Mechanized City also learned that Fatty Ding, who was stationed in Sanghai, had returned to the Mechanized City. No one knew what he had said to the Grand Master, but in short, the Grand Master was preparing to leave the Mechanized City with him.

There might be something important going on.

However, because the leader did not speak frankly, the Mohists could only guess and never had a definite answer.

Because it was unclear how long Xu Qing would wait in Sanghai.

After leaving the Mechanical City with Fatty Ding, Six-Fingered Black Knight sped up, traveling day and night.

This really put Ding Pangzi in a tough spot.

Although Fatty Ding was also a leader of the Mo family, his strength was not considered top-notch.

Or rather, this was the norm for the Mohist leadership.

The Mohist school is not known for its martial arts; they specialize in mechanical arts. Although the leaders are also skilled in martial arts, their skills are hardly top-notch in the world. However, each of them has their own strengths.

In the original work, the leaders included Master Xu, who was skilled in sword forging; Dao Zhi, who was skilled in theft; Fatty Ding, whose culinary skills were unparalleled; Xue Nu, who was skilled in dance; Gao Jianli, who was skilled in music; Duanmu Rong, who was skilled in medicine; and Da Tiechui, who possessed superhuman strength.

Of course, nowadays, many people have not joined the Mohist school, and some, like Big Iron Hammer, have switched to other sects.

But the remaining commanders, aside from their martial arts skills, are all talented individuals.

This is also because the element of martial arts has been removed.

Given that he is not a top-tier expert, Ding Pangzi can only work twice as hard to keep up with Six-Fingered Black Knight.

He tried his best to follow in the footsteps of the Six-Fingered Black Knight.

They arrived in Sanghai City in just two days.

Although the trip to the Mo family did not take too long, it felt like an eternity for Fatty Ding.

The first thing upon returning to Sanghai City.

Fatty Ding reopened the closed shop and then took a shower.

The journey was long and dusty, and my body felt sticky and uncomfortable.

Naturally, he didn't forget to ask Six-Fingered Black Knight if he needed to be cleansed, after all, the Grand Master was the leader of the Mo family.

While the shop may belong to me, if we were to truly trace its ownership, it would belong to the Mo family.

Six-Fingered Black Knight did not refuse. Although he was a person who did not care about details, he would wash himself before meeting the guests if conditions allowed, which was a basic courtesy.

After cleaning up, we enjoyed a delicious meal at Youjian Inn, courtesy of Fatty Ding.

And all that's left to do is wait.

The reopening of the inn signifies the return of Fatty Ding, who had gone to deliver the message.

As long as that person is still in Sanghai City, it's only reasonable for him to come to Youjian Inn after learning about this.

The same is true.

Not long after Fatty Ding's Inn reopened, Xu Qing learned about it.

For the past few days, he has had Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai keep an eye on the direction of Youjian Inn.

As expected, the two informed Xu Qing immediately after the inn reopened.

Aren't you going to Youjian Inn?

Jingni looked at Xu Qing, who hadn't made any move after receiving the news, and asked in surprise.

"This matter is not urgent!"

Xu Qing said calmly.

"They just got back, they'll definitely need to rest for a while. Let's go see them tomorrow."

Although Xu Qing helped Tian Guang deliver that letter, he wasn't a member of the Mohist school and wasn't actually in a hurry as one might imagine.

The next day.

The sky was bright and the sun was high in the sky.

Xu Qing then set off from the inn, heading towards the location of Youjian Inn.

Jingni, along with Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai, did not follow him.

The inn where he was currently staying was not far from Youjian Inn, and Xu Qing soon arrived at Youjian Inn.

Because of Fatty Ding's return, the inn has reopened.

However, there's not much business right now.

"Has my letter been delivered?"

Behind the counter, Fatty Ding was idly thinking about something when suddenly, a familiar voice rang in his ears.

Fatty Ding suddenly woke up and quickly looked at the person who had spoken.

"Mr. Qing?!"

Although the time was not very long, it felt like an eternity for Fatty Ding.

He returned to Sanghai yesterday and opened the shop immediately.

Logically speaking, as long as that person is still in Sanghai, they would rush over as soon as they discover this.

As a result, they waited and waited, but Xu Qing never arrived.

This made Fatty Ding secretly wonder if Mr. Qing had already left Sanghai.

If that's the case, isn't that going too far?

He traveled day and night, finally arriving at the Mo family and delivering the letter to the Grand Master, who even came along with him.

But the person in question disappeared?

If this matter were to spread, how would he be positioned within the Mohist school?

Could it be that he was actually a fraudster who deceived the tycoon?

"Mr. Qing, you've finally arrived!"

Fatty Ding quickly stood up and excitedly said to Xu Qing, "A distinguished guest has been waiting for you for a long time."

"Oh?" Xu Qing looked at Fatty Ding with feigned surprise.

In fact, he already knew that Six-Fingered Black Knight had also come to Sanghai.

Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai kept their eyes fixed on the direction of Youjian Inn. How could they not inform Xu Qing if there was an extra person here?

“You said he’s a distinguished guest, so he must be incredibly important. In that case, I’ll meet him.” Xu Qing didn’t ask who the distinguished guest was, but instead went along with what Fatty Ding said.

Fatty Ding quickly went to inform them.

Then, he came to Xu Qing again and led him to the second floor of Youjian Inn.

This is inside a room that could barely be considered a private room.

A figure dressed in a black robe had been waiting for a long time.

Upon seeing Xu Qing, he paused slightly, instinctively thinking he had misread her.

However, immediately afterward, a voice that was quite young and energetic, which was completely at odds with his appearance, entered his ears.

"Senior Six Fingers, it's been a long time!"

Chapter 228: That's all I have to say; all I can do is fulfill my duty.

"Is this a disguise?"

It took him a while to realize what was happening, and Six-Fingered Black Knight couldn't help but ask Xu Qing.

He had traveled with Xu Qing for a long time back then and was quite familiar with him. Even after many years, Xu Qing's voice and appearance were still vivid in his mind. Now, this appearance, so different from back then, and the voice, exactly the same as before, immediately gave Six-Fingered Black Knight the answer.

"Not bad!"

Xu Qing approached Six-Fingered Black Knight and frankly admitted this.

"No wonder there hasn't been much news about your deeds all this time." After getting the answer, Six-Fingered Black Knight thought of something else.

Since that incident in Yan State, Xu Qing has become famous throughout the land.

The State of Yan listed him as its number one wanted criminal and offered a large reward for his whereabouts.

Logically speaking, even if Xu Qing hid himself well, someone should have discovered his whereabouts after so much time.

But that didn't happen.
