The leader of the escort team, who is bad at finding his way, sent Xianxian to Cihang Jingzhai

Lu Changqiu: "I was in a state of meditation last night."

"How is your practice going now?" Lao Bai asked with concern.

“I’m almost there.”

Bai Zhantang was surprised: "So fast?"

"Well, I will be able to enter the Tao on the third day of next month, no more than two days difference." Lu Changqiu sensed the progress of the fusion of the five true energies and spoke.

Chapter 84-85: The hidden family appears, what is the world of great contention? (Please subscribe!)

Ever since Yan Lingji found a new way to obtain resentment under the guidance of Lu Changqiu, she opened the door to a new world.

In the next few days, she caused great trouble to Qixia Town.

It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a chaotic situation...

However, as the power increases, the resentment provided by ordinary people is no longer sufficient for cultivation.

Yan Lingji set her sights on those martial arts masters.

For this purpose, she also made a detailed plan.

Plan one, blow up the Tomb Sweeping Sect and make Xiaolongnu homeless.

Plan 2, shave Shangguan Jinhong's head bald, and then shave it again when his hair grows back...

Plan three, beat up Fan Qinghui, then bring two pounds of pork head to apologize.

There are countless examples like this, and they are all things that offend people...

After reading it, Lu Changqiu had only one comment: this girl is going further and further down the path of self-destruction.

Of course, Yan Lingji is still very smart. The targets she chooses are all strong, but not as strong as herself.

With this plan in mind, she left the Seven Heroes Town with high spirits and began her journey to becoming stronger.

After resting for a few days, Lu Changqiu also started to take on escort tasks.

only.....

The several escort missions we took on were all missions that had to be completed within a time limit.

For example, a merchant from the Sui Dynasty asked him to deliver a cart of silk to Dengyun City in the Song Dynasty within three days.

Lu Changqiu drove the carriage to a bandit den in the Tang Dynasty.

At that time, the bandits were dumbfounded...

We didn't go to rob the escort, but you, a bodyguard, actually came to our door?

Kill them, little guys!

As expected, this group of bandits was quickly wiped out by Lu Changqiu, and the bandit leader was captured to show him the way.

Transfer group (three) seven one 7 (two) 91 one (nine)

"703" Otherwise, he would not be able to complete the mission, and it would be a problem whether he could come back...

There are several time-limited tasks, none of which can be completed.

Lu Changqiu secretly decided that he would never accept any escort task that required a time limit no matter what.

In fact, he could have hired a few people, but the system didn't allow it.

......

That day, Lu Changqiu got up as usual and cleaned the yard.

Suddenly, there were footsteps coming from the other side of the gate. Looking up, I saw several people in luxurious clothes walking to the door.

The leader was a man in his fifties, followed by a woman in men's clothing and a little girl.

"How many are there?"

The man laughed, walked forward, and said with a bow, "This is Chief Escort Lu, right?"

"My name is Gu Qingfeng, and I am a spice merchant from the Song Dynasty."

"We encountered some trouble on our way back from the Great Zhou. I heard from the people at the inn that Chief Escort Lu is a very skilled martial artist, so I would like to ask you to escort us back to Chenzhou in the Great Song Dynasty."

Lu Changqiu asked directly: "No time limit, right?"

The man was stunned, not understanding why he asked that, but he still shook his head: "No restrictions."

"So what kind of trouble are you in?"

"Hey, it's not my fault."

"You are not a martial artist, but you insist on being chivalrous."

"We relied on our martial arts skills to beat up a nobleman from Yan State. Naturally, he wanted to retaliate against us."

Lu Changqiu nodded. This task was not difficult.

It won’t take long, and it can be completed in half a month at most.

It is now the middle of the month. If I complete the task by the end of the month, it will not affect my retreat and advancement.

"Okay, five hundred taels of silver. When will we set off?"

"Now."

After Gu Qingfeng paid the deposit, the two signed the contract and set off.

As a businessman traveling among the seven countries, Gu Qingfeng should have been well-informed and aware of Lu Changqiu's deeds.

However, this was his first time transporting spices from the Song Dynasty to the Zhou Dynasty, and he took a remote route along the way. He didn't meet anyone during the trip and didn't talk to anyone.

After arriving in Yan State, he fled in a hurry after delivering the goods because of the incident.

So much so that he still knew about the existence of Changqiu Escort Agency from Bai Zhantang.

More than a dozen carriages left Qixia Town and headed towards the Song Dynasty.

The Song Dynasty was nominally one country, but in reality it was divided into two, the Southern Song Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty.

The Northern Song Dynasty was ruled by the descendants of Zhao Kuangyin, while the Southern Song Dynasty was ruled by the descendants of Zhao Guangyi.

This escort mission may seem easy, but it is actually quite troublesome.

Because Lu Changqiu has too many people to protect!

In addition to Gu Qingfeng and his daughter Gu Xiaoyu, there was also the child they picked up, Xiao Yudi, and a dozen of his men.

There were sixteen people in total.

Among these sixteen people, except for Gu Xiaoyu who knows some ordinary boxing and kicking skills, all of them are ordinary people.

If you are not careful, the mission will fail.

After all, protecting one or two people is completely different from protecting more than ten people!

.......

On the third day after everyone set out, many martial artists returned to Qixia Town from the Sui Dynasty one after another.

The reason why it took so long to come find Lu Changqiu was because a major event also happened in the Sui Dynasty.

Zhu Yuyan of the Yingui Sect convened a Saint Gate Conference and invited the six sects from the two sects to participate in selecting the position of the Saint Leader.

At the conference, Zhu Yuyan defeated the evil king Shi Zhixuan, the demon commander Zhao Deyan, and other masters of the Holy Gate such as You Niaojuan in one fell swoop and became the second generation Holy Lord.

Why the second generation?

Because since its founding, the Holy Gate has been divided into pieces and has no leader, except for the era of the ancestor, the Heavenly Demon Cang Qu.

The two sects and six paths were unified in Zhu Yuyan's hands, so he naturally became the second generation Holy Lord.

The excitement of the Holy Gate Conference attracted many martial artists. They did not come to the Seven Heroes Town to visit Lu Changqiu until the conference was over.

Unexpectedly, they still didn't see anyone this time...

In desperation, I had to book a room at Tongfu Inn and wait for his return.

During the Holy Gate Conference, many martial artists learned about some major events in the martial arts world from different channels.

Among them, the most noticeable thing is that many young talents have entered the realm of Taoism!

Such news naturally became a topic of conversation for many people after dinner.

"I heard that when Ximen Chuxue suddenly realized the Dao, Baiyun City Lord Ye Gucheng also suddenly realized the Dao."

"More than Ye Gucheng?"

"I heard that a boy named Shi Potian also had a sudden enlightenment on Xiake Island three months ago."

"Shi Potian? Who is he?"

"I don't know. It just popped up out of nowhere. I've never heard of it before."

"Hehe, you two are out of date, aren't you?"

"There are more than just these two young talents who entered the Dao in the Seven Kingdoms. There are more than a dozen who entered the Dao this year."

"what?"

"There hasn't been a single initiate in the past ten years, but this year there are so many?"

"Hehe, a new generation of initiates has appeared one after another, which means that the era of great strife is about to come."

"I'm afraid the Seven Kingdoms, including the land outside the territory, will not be peaceful."

The person who spoke was a middle-aged man with a mustache, probably in his thirties.

Many masters present had never seen this person before, so they couldn't help but ask: "Who are you..."

The middle-aged man laughed and said, "I am Liu Gui, a historian."

Willow ghost?

Li Qiushui's eyes flickered, and he pondered, "I seem to have heard of this name somewhere before?"

suddenly!

Her eyes were stern. “Are you the descendant of the Liu family who specializes in recording the major events of the Shenzhou martial arts world?”

Hearing this, the others also came to their senses.

It has long been rumored in the martial arts world that there is a secret family that travels between the seven countries and overseas, specializing in recording major events in the martial arts world.

But they had only heard of it but never seen it.

Now, this secret family has come into the world?

Li Qiushui murmured: "But..."

"The Liu family is a hidden family, and Liu Gui is the name of the patriarch of each generation. The patriarch of the Liu family will not easily get involved in the martial arts world."

"Once you enter the martial arts world, something earth-shattering will surely happen!"

"You show up here and introduce yourself in front of all the heroes in the world. Isn't this a bit strange?"

Liu Gui smiled calmly: "Master Li is right."

"Although the Liu family records the major events of the martial arts world, the head of the family never sets foot in the martial arts world."

"unless....."

"The era of great strife is coming!"

Song Que nodded: "It seems that the rumors in the martial arts world are correct. Nowadays, there are many geniuses, and the younger generation of people entering the Tao are emerging in an endless stream."

"All signs indicate that a time of great strife is coming."

"Now, even the reclusive Liu family has come out of seclusion, which shows that the era of great strife has begun!"

Huang Rong was young after all, and did not quite understand these words, so she asked, "Dad, what is the world of great contention?"

Huang Yaoshi: "Any time of great contention is always a time when talented people emerge in large numbers."

“And this era is bound to be the most exciting era!”

"The moment Ximen Chuxue entered the Dao, the Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Jade, the Evil Emperor's Relics, and other martial arts treasures appeared, all of these were signs that the era of great strife was coming."
