Chen Huaisheng looked sideways and saw two people walking in with their heads held high. They didn't seem to care about the others and said directly: "Shopkeeper, I heard that you have White Horse Pomegranates here. How many more are there? I want them all!"
One has a face as heavy as a jujube, tiger eyes and a wide mouth, while the other has a face as yellow as gold, with an eagle's gaze as a wolf. They are both in their forties, and they have extraordinary aura.
But the momentum was overwhelming, and for Chen Huaisheng, this was the first time that someone snatched the order at the foot of the mountain gate, which made Chen Huaisheng a little curious.
However, Chen Huaisheng has long past the need to show off his vindictiveness, and when he is about to roll up his sleeves and talk about heroes with someone, of course it will not work to put pressure on him like this.
It is his nature to do things rationally, well-founded and restrained.
"Brother, isn't this appropriate?" Chen Huaisheng said in a nonchalant voice, "You have to be on a first-come, first-served basis, right?"
The two of them seemed to be aware of Chen Huaisheng's existence, even though Chen Huaisheng was close to 1.8 meters tall.
However, compared to these two people who were eight feet tall as mentioned in ancient books, they were at least a little over 1.8 meters tall, so they did appear to be much thinner.
"Hey, you guys, you obviously thought the price was too expensive, so you didn't want it, so we said we wanted it. Why do you want to say you're ahead now? Could it be that you think it's too expensive, so we can't buy it?"
The guy with the pale golden donkey face hissed, and it sounded like a provocation. I don't know if it was just like that, or if he wanted to find trouble.
"Brother, the shopkeeper and I are still negotiating the price..." Chen Huai was angry and calmed down, but he was not angry.
"Haha, yes, we negotiate the price, and when someone quotes a price, you find it too expensive and refuse to buy it. You refuse to buy it. Then we have to wait until we can buy it at a price you are satisfied with before we can buy it, right?"
The man with a light golden donkey face looked contemptuous: "I'm afraid there is no such truth in the world, right?..."
Before Chen Huaisheng could speak, the red-faced man had already stopped his companion's words: "Husheng, don't be rude, brother is also from our Chonghua sect? Please forgive Teng for his poor eyesight, I don't know brother..."
Only at this moment did Chen Huaisheng take a serious look at the other two.
The accent is somewhat similar to mine. If nothing else happens, he should be from Yiyang Prefecture, but it's hard to tell if he's not from Liao County.
Among the six counties of Yiyang Prefecture, half are purely mountainous counties and half are semi-mountainous counties. Liao County, Pang County and Anfeng are purely mountainous counties. However, Liao County and Pang County have similar accents, and the accents in Anfeng are slightly different. As for
The accents in other counties such as Dingling, Xiyang and Zhugao are different.
The red-faced man had obviously noticed that the young man in front of him had the same qi energy as his own, and was at the peak of qi refining, which surprised him.
After joining the Chonghua Sect, he still had some understanding of the situation of the Chonghua Sect.
There are only a handful of people at the advanced level of Qi Refining who are qualified to impact the foundation building, including Ding Liren of the Ding family, Cao Renben and Liu Chun.
There was originally another Yao Liwei, but he was killed in the battle with the Yuelu Sect.
There are only two other talents who are said to be rare talents of the Chonghua sect, but it is said that they have not been promoted to the eighth level of Qi refining for a long time, and there are still some gaps but very potential characters.
One is Zhao Sitian and the other is Chen Huaisheng.
To be honest, these few people made him feel a little disappointed. Is this the strength of the Chonghua Sect?
If the sect had not been fooled by the Jiulian Sect and chosen the dangerous place of Dahuai Mountain on Wei Huaidao, which would have led to the hostility of the surrounding clans and the invasion of the Yuelu Sect, perhaps the Lingyun Sect would have settled in Wolong Ridge.
They can still be as prosperous as the Chonghua sect today.
It's just that the past is over, so he doesn't dwell on it. It's just that his respect for the original Chonghua sect in his heart is still a little weak.
It is said that Cao Renben was still Zuo Zhiyuan of the original Chuan Gong Academy. However, he was eighty years old, but he could not even succeed in attacking the foundation and was not locked. He was injured and fell to his peak.
It is said that Liu Chun is also a direct disciple of the sect leader. He is over fifty and has not even been able to break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining.
It's just that he has never met Zhao Sitian and Chen Huaisheng. They say that these two are geniuses. One is nearly forty years old and the other is only twenty-five or sixty-six years old, which makes him look forward to it.
The casual demeanor and age of the person in front of me fit the latter of the two very well.
Chen Huaisheng nodded: "Chen Huaisheng of the Chonghua Sect."
Upon hearing this name, both the red-faced man and the donkey-faced man were startled, and then as expected, the red-faced man was the first to clasp his fists: "Teng Dingyuan of the Chonghua Sect."
The donkey-faced man also clasped his fists: "Yang Husheng of the Chonghua Sect."
If everything is clearly stated, it is naturally impossible for the story to provoke each other as described in the opera.
The donkey-faced man was obviously aware of Chen Huaisheng's current spiritual state, and was quite surprised while apologizing: "Senior Brother Chen, earlier Yang was too blind to see Mount Tai, Meng Lang, please forgive me, but Senior Brother Chen, this is
Have you reached the peak of Qi refining?"
Chen Huaisheng really couldn't help laughing.
This guy was really outspoken. While begging for forgiveness, he couldn't help but ask about his own spiritual state. Obviously, the statement in front of him was a bit inconsistent with reality, which made him a little unbelievable.
The red-faced man Teng Dingyuan also grinned bitterly. His companion was so reckless. How could he have offended the other person when they met for the first time, and apologized while also asking about their situation?
You are full of disbelief in what you say. Wouldn't someone else think that you are deliberately provocative and looking for trouble?
But seeing the calm demeanor of the young man in front of him, Teng Dingyuan realized that he might not be so small-minded.
It is not without reason that he can reach the peak of Qi refining at such an age.
"It's just a fluke." Chen Huaisheng smiled and replied: "Brother Teng should be at the peak of Qi refining and ready to build the foundation, right? Brother Yang should also be at the ninth level of Qi refining, just waiting for Yuwan to be born, right?"
Before Teng Dingyuan could reply, Yang Husheng was surprised and answered quickly: "Really? Didn't they say that you only advanced to the advanced level of Qi Refining the year before last, and that you only advanced to the eighth level after the battle with the Yuelu Sect in the middle of last year?
In one year, you have reached the peak of Qi refining?"
Such a straightforward question would be fine if it was a very familiar friend. Is it appropriate and polite to ask this for the first time when we meet each other and to be so candid?
The red-faced man Teng Dingyuan could only put his hand on his forehead and hold his partner's shoulder: "Husheng, what's going on with you, are you so rude?"
"No, brother, I didn't expect such a strange thing to happen. I always thought it was a miracle that you went from the eighth level of Qi Refining to the peak of Qi Refining in just two years. I never thought there was anyone faster than you!"
The donkey-faced man was still chattering there, shaking his head with a look of disbelief on his face: "The Chonghua Sect, uh, our Chonghua Sect still has some talents."
Chen Huaisheng did not expect that the red-faced man in front of him would actually go from the eighth level of Qi refining to the peak of Qi refining in two years, which made him a little impressed.
Although slower than me, two years is insurmountable for most people who want to cross this step and a half. If you can do it in three years, you are already extremely good. If you can do it in five years, it is also commendable.
.
"Brother Teng, Brother Yang, everyone has their ups and downs in practice, so don't worry too much about it. It seems that Brother Teng also needs this white horse sweet pomegranate to add some spirituality and luck?" Chen Huaisheng said with a smile.
There was some ridicule in these words, and Teng Dingyuan also laughed, "Well, something is better than nothing. At least it can make me more confident. Brother Chen comes first. If necessary, I should satisfy Brother Chen first."
He was also a straightforward and upright person, and Chen Huaisheng had a good impression of him, "In that case, how about we have one each?"
"That's good, thank you very much, Brother Chen, for your kindness." Teng Dingyuan clasped his fists and bowed again.
Seeing that the two of them had reached an agreement, the shopkeeper who had been silent for a long time interjected with a smile: "I am honored to see two talented people cherish each other. I am deeply honored. These two white horse sweet pomegranates are sold for 1,800 spiritual stones each."
I wish you both success in building the foundation and getting what you want."
Chen Huaisheng, Teng Dingyuan and the donkey-faced man next to them all laughed and looked at the shopkeeper with special eyes. However, with his skill and grand methods, it can be seen that he is not a simple character.
After coming out of the shop, the three of them seemed to still have some unfinished ideas. Chen Huaisheng saw that Teng Dingyuan was hesitant to speak, so he simply invited him directly: "It is fate that we meet today. If Brother Teng and Brother Yang don't give up, why don't we have a drink?
How about two drinks?”
Teng Dingyuan was overjoyed: "I have my wish, but I don't dare to ask my ears."
There are already several wine shops for sect disciples to have banquets outside the mountain gate, and the number continues to increase.
Chen Huaisheng was not very familiar with it yet, but Teng Dingyuan and Yang Husheng were obviously more familiar with it. They chose a relatively secluded wine shop and found an elegant seat to sit down.
"Brother Chen's accent sounds similar to that of my eldest brother. Could it be that Brother Chen is also from Yinan?" Yang Husheng obviously has a bold and unrestrained temperament. As soon as he drank a glass of wine, the conversation started, "We are disciples of the Chonghua Sect.
It is growing very fast now. In addition to Langling, it is Yiyang, and then here is Fuyang, Hebei, but Brother Chen should be from Langling, right?"
"Haha, there are three prefectures in Yinan, but the accents are still different. I am from Liao County, Yiyang Prefecture." Chen Huaisheng looked at Teng Dingyuan, "If my guess is correct, Brother Teng should also be from Yiyang, right? Li County
Or Liao County? The accent there in Anfeng is a little different from ours."
Teng Dingyuan raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Brother Chen is from Liao County? I am also from Liao County. Where is Brother Chen from Liao County? I am from Woyunpu in Liao County."
"I am from Yuanbaozhai, Gu Town, Liao County." Chen Huaisheng smiled warmly, "I am from the country."
"Haha, I am also from the countryside. Woyunpu is even more remote than your Guzhen side. It is next to the Lianyun Plank Road. You should know." Teng Dingyuan suddenly felt that the distance between the two people suddenly narrowed and they became much closer. "Hu Sheng is too.
He’s from Yiyang Prefecture, but he’s from Dingling, so he’s from the Prefecture, but people from the city are different from us.”
Listening to Teng Dingyuan joking about his friends, the familiarity of the local accent came over him, and the donkey-faced man also curled his lips: "I am also from the countryside, okay? Except for the tens of thousands of people in the county seat, the rest of Dingling County is from the countryside, okay?"
good?"
