Author: Gunpowder is heavy

The mutton soup restaurant is very lively and steaming.

The strong man looked at the waiter in front of him and said impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense, pick the biggest speed!"

The waiter smiled and poured a glass of rice wine for the strong man: "If you want to talk about this big thing, of course, it is the barbarians in the north."

"Barbarians?"

"Yes, the barbarian soldiers were sent to Beimingzhou, intending to seize the land of our Dajing Dynasty. In the court, there are wars and harmony, and there are endless quarrels."

"In the end, the Left Prime Minister's Ministry of War won and sent troops to Beiming, intending to retake Beimingzhou!"

"But I never thought that the barbarians were fierce, the court retreated step by step, and the three counties were lost in a row. Only the last Tianwu County was still entangled."

"The barbarians don't seem to dare to force too much. So, the day before yesterday, they sent envoys to discuss the ownership of Tianwu County."

"After some negotiations, I finally decided on a gambling method with the court!"

The waiter said with a stuttering and shaking his head.

"Gambling?"

The strong man and the diners around him were interested and listened carefully.

Seeing this, the waiter couldn't help but feel proud. He was learning storytelling with the storyteller in the teahouse recently. Now it seems that his ability to tell stories has become somewhat exciting, and the suspense is full of confusion, which is very touching.

I can't say that in a few days, I can change my job and make money every day, marry Miss Zhang, and reach the peak of my life...

"Bang!"

Just when the waiter fell into his fantasy, the strong man could no longer hold back and slapped the table suddenly, glaring: "You can't say it quickly, don't force me to do it!"

The waiter was shocked and then remembered that there were practitioners in this world. If the story was too repressed or if he was deliberately half-talking, he might be beaten to death... The story turned into an accident.

He felt panicked, and the waiter did not dare to neglect it. He immediately said the matter like a bet: "The gambling battle is naturally Tianwu County!"

"The two sides agreed that if the court wins, the barbarians will return to Tianwu County!"

"If the barbarians win, the court will hand over Tianwu County and withdraw their troops and return."

The strong man frowned and couldn't help but curse, "Tianwu County and Beimingzhou are originally the territory of the imperial court, so they can also be used for gambling? Isn't this acquiesce to the other three counties to the barbarians? Is it true that they will gather in several states directly?

The soldiers will repel the barbarians and let them see how powerful our dynasty is."

"I don't know if this little one is small, but the court has agreed. The gambling will start seven days later. The location is in Zhenwu Hall, and all people can watch it." The waiter replied.

"Hey, it's so cowardly!" The strong man sighed and then asked again: "How to make a gambling method?"

"The barbarian envoy said that if you fight for civil and military affairs, you can choose one, either civil or military affairs, and you can decide the outcome in one battle!" said the waiter.

"...what did the court choose?" the young man suddenly interrupted.

"This is still a question. Of course, it is a literary fight. My Dajing Dynasty established a country with Confucianism. There were countless Confucian scholars, so naturally the literary fight can only win!" said a diner.

"But... the barbarians must also know that we can choose literature, so why do we still ask us to choose one of them?" the young man asked in confusion.

"this……"

Everyone was stunned and looked at each other.

"The little brother seems to make sense. Did the barbarians hide any conspiracy..."

Some diners frowned.

"Even if I hide a conspiracy, I, Dajing, have many Confucian scholars and countless talents. How can I be afraid of them?"

There was no need for diners to say.

Everyone talked for a while, but without a single result, the strong man shouted loudly: "There are so many masters and scholars in the court, why is this matter our turn to worry about? Tell me quickly, what is another big thing?"

"Yes, let's talk about that big thing."

The waiter no longer stifled his appetite and said immediately: "The other big thing is Buddhism!"

"What's wrong with Buddhism?" asked the strong man frowned.

"Buddhism completely controls Xixiangzhou. Three days ago, it announced that it would establish itself as a Buddhist country and would not be enthroned by the court!" Xiao Er spoke very quickly, "This matter has been quarreling in Dongdu, but the court has no explanation yet.

I don't know whether it is true or not."

"Oh, I've said that these bald donkeys are unreliable, and they must have a strange intention!"

"What a big deal? Even if Taizu of Xixiangzhou is alive, he has never really controlled it. He has barely stationed soldiers. Those who truly control Xixiangzhou have always been Buddhism!"

"If you want to talk about big things, I think the White Jade Courtesan competition in Baihu Tower is the big thing!"

"That's right, I can't play Dongdu anyway. The White Jade Courtesan competition was postponed for a month at that time. It won't be long before calculating the time!"

"It's still early, it's only been more than half a month, and it should be almost done after the literary fight."

"Hey, I don't know how beautiful the Baiyu Courter should be this year, and what kind of skills he has, so he can be more beautiful than Dongdu..."

Just as everyone was talking and successfully deviating from the topic, the exclamation of passers-by suddenly came from outside the store.

"Look, there is a barbarian scholar on the way!"

Everyone was shocked and opened the doors and windows and looked out to the street.

On the street, a tall and ugly man wearing a gray Confucian robe was walking barefoot in the snow. His eyes were gray and his head was red, and he was burning like a flame. He was a barbarian.

The appearance of the barbarians is very different from that of the Central Plains, the biggest difference is the red marks on their eyes and heads.

The barbarian men all have ugly faces, gray eyes, tall figures, red marks on their heads, circling like flames, while the barbarian women all have graceful figures and beautiful faces, with golden eyes, blue hair, extraordinary.

They claim to be descendants of gods and have the blood of gods.

Although the Dajing Dynasty scoffed at this and the practitioners of the Central Plains did not care about it, it is undeniable that the barbarians are indeed unique, strong in body, able to resist spells, and have talented barbarian skills, and their strength should not be underestimated.

However, the clan has always lacked high-end combat power, so he settled in a corner and was squeezed into a bitter and cold place.

For many years, the barbarians have been practicing physical body. I have never heard of anyone practicing Confucianism and Taoism. Why is the barbarians in front of them wearing Confucian robes?

Have Confucianism and Taoism been passed down to the barbarians?

But why did the barbarians start war against the Dajing Dynasty?

Could it be... related to the "literary battle" in a few days?

Everyone in the restaurant looked at each other and frowned, but they couldn't think of a reason.

After a while, the barbarians had already walked away and disappeared from the corner of the street.

"It's a turbulent time, but it has nothing to do with us. Come on, drink wine and soup!"

Even the strong man's rough temperament felt a little unusual, but after three glasses of wine, he forgot everything.

When the sky falls, there are naturally tall men who are holding on to him. What does the temple have to do with him? Just take care of your own five internal organs.

But Ning You frowned slightly.

After configuring Xuan Li and possessing Tianjing Lingling Eye, he could see through illusions and some hidden methods. The barbarians who had just walked over looked nothing strange, but in Ning You's spiritual eye, he felt a hint of strangeness.

It seemed that there was a shadow of someone in the other person's body.

However, this feeling was very vague and extremely weak, and Ning You could not be sure. After all, this was the first time he had seen the living barbarians, and he was not sure whether all barbarians were like this.

After pondering for a while, Ning You put this matter in his heart for the time being, drinking wine and soup, and no longer thinking.

...

...

After eating and drinking, the caravan continued to set off and walked to the business in the west of the city. After handing over the goods, the journey was over.

"Brother Chen, this is your reward. I'm a little less, please forgive me!"

The strong man took a small bag of spirit stones and a large bag of silver and handed it to Ning You, with an unnatural look on his face.

Although he had agreed before, a master of the ninth level of Tongmai was rewarded with such a small amount, he was still a little sad, for fear that the other party would be dissatisfied and turned his back on the verge of anger.

"It's okay, thank you Brother Pei!"

Ning You didn't care about this reward, as long as you had money to make a relationship.

Seeing that Ning You really didn't care, the strong man felt relieved and was secretly happy.

This trip is precious and the freight is extremely high. Apart from Ning You’s remuneration, the rest is cheaper. In this way, he is one step closer to his dream of going to Baihu Tower...

Unfortunately, the little rabbit spent fifteen, otherwise, I could have stayed overnight in the White Tiger Tower tonight...

And at this moment, the golden and jade divine bead in Ning You's arms suddenly trembled slightly.
