Chapter 160 Meeting in the world of mortals(1/2)

A few days passed, and the people in Nan Shaolin seemed to have completely disappeared in the vast sea of ​​people, with no trace of movement. Even the Guandi Association of the Guangzhou Beggars' Gang could only find out where they had settled.

When the beggars arrived at their places, they only found some ragged clothes and broken bowls of leftovers, and finally left in disappointment and handed over the clues to the hands of several elders.

The third son came to tell the news in person, and was a little embarrassed. Anyway, according to this, perhaps Nan Shaolin had really withdrawn.

Jiang Wen couldn't figure out what was going on, he just felt uneasy.

In fact, he already has an expectation of the next step. For example, Luo Yuantong Xiangju’s Golden Basin Handwashing Conference is a good entry point, and perhaps he can reach high-level Guangzhou through this platform.

With the mentality of being at peace since he came, Jiang Wen had been asking for news alone in the morning, but in the afternoon, he simply took his apprentices around the city, strolling around the streets and alleys in the city, and savoring the specialty food in the city.

I can only say that while Guangzhou City is prosperous and magnificent, it is also an absolute gold-selling cave. Every day, eating, drinking, walking, and stopping, the money in the pocket was taken away unknowingly and never looking back.

After wandering around for a morning, Jiang Wen and his disciples chose a restaurant and sat down. After ordering the menu, they waited for the dishes to come.

"Eat quickly, eat quickly, and the food will have no fresh taste when it is cold. A hero from the world must not only be able to endure hunger, but also be able to enjoy life. You must be happy with all your gratitude. Don't you know about the golden cup?"

Jiang Wen waved his chopsticks and urged him, but Hong Wending, as usual, tried it casually, staring at the martial arts people outside the winery without moving his eyes; Fu Ningdie looked at the dishes and secretly warned himself that the good dishes must be hidden behind and that they should not eat too early; only Xiao Shitou, who followed Jiang Wen's speed like a wind and clouds, has never been absent in the past few days.

"Master, is it really good for us to eat like this every day?" Fu Ningdie said worriedly, her increasingly round little face full of entanglement.

Jiang Wen waved his hand and said there was no pressure.

"I'm so happy as a teacher. Instead of being there every day and being left alone, it's better to hurry up and enjoy it, so that even if there is an accident, you won't regret it."

The accident refers to the Southern Shaolin of course.

From the perspective of cause and effect, searching for Nan Shaolin should be just a secondary link in his trip to Guangzhou, and even if he can't find it, it won't affect anything. But Jiang Wen found that as long as Nan Shaolin doesn't appear for a day, there will always be a hurdle in his heart, and Nan Shaolin is hiding seamlessly like this, which is the most dangerous signal.

Jiang Wen sighed in his heart. He hoped to meet the leader of a certain Tiandihui for the first time. As long as this person comes out and step on it, he can basically detonate the open and dark thunders in the whole world, so he doesn't have to worry so much.

Interestingly, Chen Jinnan told himself a few months ago that he wanted to retire from the world of the world, but there has been no heroic deeds about him recently. I just don’t know whether he changed his original name to Chen Yonghua to assist Zheng Chenggong, or whether he was hiding in the world after he escaped from the shell and planning other anti-Qing plans.

"Stone, remember to practice the skill of acupoints well and grasp the flaws accurately. You have more than enough practice skills to practice horizontally, just recognize the acupoints and almost ignite the fire. If you grasp the acupoints and understand these three acupoints quickly, we will go to Master Fan to continue asking for advice."

Jiang Wen taught me earnestly and picked up a chopstick dish into the small stone bowl.

In his eyes, the leader of Fan Xinghan is the Beggar's Beggar's version of the Beggar's Gang. He has learned inappropriately in all aspects, but his temperament is not like adulterated. He belongs to a limited degree of trustworthy type. Other aspects other than character need to be thoroughly examined.

Speaking of which, in addition to practical skills in piercing and grasping, the opponent also has a simple and crude sword technique. It is said that he can also attack the enemy side gate and is good at taking advantage of the gap. When the sword dances, the sword light shines, and the wind is whistling, like a tiger. Maybe you can also check it out.

Xiao Shitou nodded vigorously, pretending to be serious, but his eyes looked at the dishes that were being served one after another.

"I know Master, I will practice hard and not let you down."

"...Let's have a meal first, I don't know whether you are talking about practicing martial arts or practicing food."

As the dishes arrived, the noon sunlight shone out the magnificence of the city. On the second floor of the restaurant, you can see more than a hundred scales gathering on the wide Pearl River. The dishes are connected, and the sails are woven, waiting in line to enter and exit the port. With the shouts of the boatmen, the ocean-going ships above the Yudaimo have arrived one after another to load.

These ships are dozens of feet deep and wide. Traders occupy the storage of goods and squeeze out the number of feet left on the board for people to walk. Such as Suzhou and Hangzhou Gu embroidery, silk and satin, medicinal materials, fur, Shaoxing wine, and ham are all piled up at the pier.

Because there are so many goods carried, not only do they need to store goods on the deck, but the sleeping crew can only lie on them at night. These goods are fragile and expensive ceramic goods, but they are in close contact with each other, so that ordinary people can walk on flat ground when they step on them.

Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles. Since you have taken your apprentice out for study, you have to learn some real things. According to him, since you have arrived in Guangzhou Prefecture, you have to try the Cantonese cuisine here. Jiang Wen also introduced the knowledge of Cantonese cuisine.

"As early as the Tang Dynasty, Cantonese cuisine had its own unique characteristics. It began to combine the Central Plains cooking culture with local culture to improve cooking techniques, and knew how to use ingredients and master the heat."

"Guangfu cuisine is still fresh because the ingredients here are taken and used at will, and the materials are not scarce. The book also records that Lu Xun, who rebelled with Sun En during the Eastern Jin Dynasty, also occupied Guangzhou. When he was defeated, his remaining members rushed to the island and lived in the wild but did not die. He relied on eating oysters and stools and built shells as walls."

In order to show that he was not a vernacular language, Jiang Wen also took out the records of "Lingbiao Luyi" in Yuanhuazi's collection of books as evidence. It said that during the Tang Dynasty, people in Guangzhou were able to use cooking methods such as boiling, steaming, frying, stir-frying, stewing, roasting, and steaming based on the food, and used a variety of seasonings, such as sauce, vinegar, ginger, non-, pepper, cinnamon, etc. to form the unique Lingnan flavor.

"Don't worry, after eating Jinhua Yushu chicken from Jufengyuan, crispy crucian carp and hand-torn chicken from Fulaiju, braised abalone slices and white scorched snail slices from Nanyuan, we will try Dinghu Su in Xiyuan, fragrant sea bass balls from Moshang, sour baked suckling pigeon from Taipingguan, skin-fried suckling pigeon from Lu Yuju and Baiyun pig hand..."

"Master, but I'm not having enough money."

Hong Wending, who was in charge of the account, really exposed Jiang Wen's dream. "The money sent by President Lin's escort has been spent. After this meal, it will only be enough for two days to spend in the inn."

Jiang Wen, who was erect, was woken up from his indulgent dream and looked at Hong Wending meaningfully.

"No, people eat horses and chew the floor and the morning tea money tomorrow are actually only enough to stay in the inn for one day."

He sighed, his expression as if he was a primary school student who was about to start school at the end of the summer vacation, and he looked full of reluctance to face reality. "After this meal, we will pack up and go to your good brother Ma Chaoxing's house to catch the autumn wind."

"Ma Family? But Master, didn't you say you can't go..."

Hong Wending said inexplicably.

Jiang Wen shook his head and said to him meaningfully: "Wen Ding, don't learn anything arrogant and self-reliant with your father. Face is the same as the money in your pocket. If you spend it today, you may be picked up again tomorrow."

"I do not understand."

Hong Wending shook his head honestly.

Jiang Wen added: "I also found that living here costs money like water. Let's find a place to get affiliated with others. If you spend other people's money, you won't feel sorry for it. Besides, there is no such unlucky thing. Maybe the two girls have left long ago!"

Jiang Wen didn't give much explanation. After paying the bill, he quickly arrived on Xiguan Street with his empty wallet.

Here, they saw a ring with lights and a magnificent mansion on the street. The color scheme of the thick ink and heavy colors shows the unique magnificent nouveau riche, and the huge sign clearly has two big characters written on it.

Lei Mansion.

The formerly excluded site, Ma Dashan, is already a place to come. Ma Dashan has been here a few months ago and must have heard of Nan Shaolin. His child Ma Chaoxing is one of the fifth ancestors carefully trained by Nan Shaolin. He must have had an inside story about Nan Shaolin.

Compared to solving puzzles, what is it that I can find out that I will go back on my word? As long as the truth is revealed, everything will be worthy of my heart!

"Hahaha, Jiang Daxia, you are really here today! If you inform me that you are coming here, I will send someone to ten miles outside the city to welcome you!"

The energetic Lei Laohu heard the news of visiting the door and rushed out to greet him. He was so unenthusiastic that he was not enthusiastic. His rough voice was exactly the same as in Xiamei Town, and he started chatting without any strangeness.

"Mr. Lei, your industry is getting bigger and bigger, and it's enviable."

Jiang Wen sighed sincerely that although Ma Dashan has a lot of property in Xiamei Town, most of it was looted by Qing soldiers a few months ago. Now he still has such a family background in a foreign land. This person seems to be possessed by the God of Wealth.

"Actually, thanks to my elder brother Ma Shanjun."

Ma Jiashan, who changed his name to Lei Laohu, smiled, and kept stroking his hands on his chest, whispering, "The others are doing silk business in Hangzhou, and Guangzhou also own two large computer rooms to weave silk. When they see the wars are in chaos, they entrusted them to me. Unexpectedly, they are making money every day."

Lei Laohu brought Jiang Wen to the lobby, and sat down with the four big words "Pervail with virtue" on the plaque and then talked about his recent mental journey.

But there seemed to be a familiar slim figure behind the screen, which was very strange to hide there silently.

"She Jiang, when I came out of Chong'an County, I was reflecting on why I suffered this disaster every day, and whether it was not enough to accumulate virtue. Only now do I realize that I only know how to accumulate virtue and not know how to convince people, and I will have trouble - I will certainly be unlucky if I don't accept anyone!"

The plaque that won people with virtue shines brightly, completely replacing the guiding ideology of doing good deeds every day during Lei Laohu's period.

"Uh, it's not unreasonable to say that..."

Jiang Wen stammered and responded, dodging his sharp gaze in a certain direction.

"His wife Jiang, are you listening?"

Lei Laohu continued to lean against the screen, "This is even more so when I arrived in Guangzhou. People here always go against me. If you want to convince others, you must listen to me first. I can't be looked down upon! If there were thirty or fifty masters like Hong Daxia in the mansion, who would dare to look down on me!"

Jiang Wen almost got happy. It would be okay to raise thirty or fifty Hong Xi officials. If Lei Laohu could find a platoon of Hong Xi officials, the ones who were massacred in Xiamei Town that night would have been the Qing soldiers.

"So I have to thank you for introducing two female heroes with great martial arts. This is simply a timely help!"

Jiang Wen said in shock: "What does it mean? Mr. Lei, you dare to marry a little wife?"

A silver whip flashed in the air, breaking the teacup in Jiang Wen's hand through the screen paper, which scared Lei Laohu.

As the screen broke, Jiang Wen found that the person standing there was Yuan Ziyi who was dressed as a lady from a family, staring at him silently. The cold sweat on Jiang Wen's forehead instantly came down.

For some reason, Jiang Wen felt that the person in front of him had a strange look. He looked at himself like he was a disheartened man. Has he done something shameful?

"Miss Yuan, long time no see."

Jiang Wen pretended to be calm and greeted him, unable to understand why Yuan Ziyi stayed here so naturally.

"Stop joking with Hero Jiang."

Lei Laohu waved his hand and shook his head repeatedly, and he should be as respectful as possible. "The Wuhumen had been harassing my business before. I paid the money to ask Nuxia Yuan to stay here. Now she is temporarily pretending to be my daughter and helping me deal with those local tyrants."

Lei Laohu had a thick neck and quickly smiled and brought another chair for Yuan Ziyi to sit on. The few people looked at each other for a long time without saying anything, and the atmosphere seemed a little awkward.

Fortunately, Fu Ningdie was clever and immediately thought of the entry point of the topic.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Sister Ziyi, where has Sister Yan gone?"

Looking at the innocent little Ningdie asking questions, Yuan Ziyi then answered in a normal tone.

"Sister Yan also lives in the mansion with me. A few days ago, I heard that there was a master hermit in Zhangqiugang Village in the south of the city, so I visited with Uncle Yan."

As soon as he spoke, Yuan Ziyi's attitude eased a lot. He naturally talked about the story of the previous arrival of Guangzhou Prefecture. Lei Laohu also took the opportunity to brag and talked about the previous ring competition.

It was not until this time that Jiang Wen realized that he had only found a place for Yuan Ziyi and Yan Yongchun to settle down in Guangzhou, but he never thought about how fierce the domineering character of Shan Shanren Ma would have when he encountered Yuan Ziyi, who was in trouble.

Not to mention anything else, just talking about the second-level lively events in Guangzhou City mentioned by Zhou Long must be something that Yuan Ziyi could only think of.

Lei Laohu was suffering from the inability to establish his authority in Guangzhou City, while Yuan Ziyi and Yan Yongchun wanted to learn more boxing in the martial arts hometown. The two hit it off, so the Lei Mansion paid for the money and the heroine gave him the opportunity. This was why such a gimmick arena competition that caused a sensation in Guangzhou City.

"Since Miss Yuan pretended to be my daughter, joined forces with Nv Xia to defeat the forces of Xiguan and fight with Wuhumen in Foshan, and fought with Wuhumen in Foshan, no one dared to mess with me in Foshan and Shunde!"

Lei Laohu said with a sarcastic look, "It would be better if you come to Guangzhou. Why don't you come to Guangzhou too? Let's join forces to create a world!"

After hearing the three words "Five Humen" came out, Jiang Wen finally knew the origin of Yuan Ziyi's resentment.

Wuhumen is just a small sect, and his martial arts are not necessarily very clever, but he occupies a large area of ​​land, restaurants, casinos, and pawnshops from Guangzhou to Foshan. He relies on their head, Feng Tiannan, who is known as the number one master in Lingnan.

Feng Tiannan's other identity is Yuan Ziyi's biological father who has grudges but no kindness. She can be said to be her biggest enemy in the world.

Jiang Wen guessed that Yuan Ziyi must have thought that she was plotting against her and deliberately asked her to help Lei Laohu and Feng Tiannan get the right way.

From a certain perspective, this matter is indeed very similar to the evil taste that Jiang Wen would do.
