The bandits in Heifeng Village who fainted from anger obviously had no ability to resist. Zhao Hu and others easily tied them all into rice dumplings with thick ropes. Of course, the bandit leader with the seventh-level strength of Qi Yang Realm

The leader of the village even tied him up several times inside and out to ensure that he would not break free.

After the danger was gone, Zhao Hu realized that this was a good opportunity to curry favor with the master of the Bamboo Pavilion!

This time he is not a master with a bright future like Xia Huang who is ready to join the Bamboo Pavilion, but a true Concentration Realm master! A true official disciple of the Bamboo Pavilion!

"May I ask what your name is?" Zhao Hu tried his best to make his smile look more natural and walked to the side of the Zhuge man.

"Lu Qing." The Zhuge man didn't have any airs about him and said his name casually.

"Since you are from Zhuge, we happen to have a batch of goods sent to Zhuge this time. Can you please come with us?" Zhao Hu asked cautiously.

"Oh? The goods? Is that the batch of herbs I ordered?" Lu Qing said suddenly.

"Did you order it?" Zhao Hu couldn't help but be stunned.

They originally thought that the purchase of several carts of medicinal materials at one time must be a big deal from the Master of Zhuge, but they did not expect that it was actually bought by a disciple of Zhuge!

"It's true that he is an expert from Zhuge. There are some precious medicinal materials in that car! I'm afraid ordinary pharmacists will never use these medicinal materials in their lifetime." As the escort leader, Zhao Hu has some thoughts about this escort.

I still have a certain understanding of what kind of goods it is, "Do you need to personally inventory such valuable things?"

"No, it's just some small medicinal materials. You don't need to be so careful. You can just take them to Mingzhu Town. Once there, someone will be responsible for transporting the things up the mountain." Lu Qing placed them casually, as if he didn't care about the high value at all.

Keep the medicinal materials in mind.

Zhao Hu and his bodyguards looked at me and I looked at you, and they were all speechless. In their eyes, it was a valuable thing, but they didn't expect that the other party didn't take it seriously at all. At this moment, they

I finally believe what some old escorts once said——

The wealth possessed by those masters in the Concentrating Realm of famous sects is beyond the imagination of monks like them in the Nourishing Qi Realm!

With the ability of a Qi-nourishing monk to make money, if there is no special adventure, it will take at least seven or eight years to buy these several carts of precious medicinal materials. But the Zhuge disciple named Lu Qing in front of him

The attitude he showed was as if he had spent a negligible amount of money on something that was not worth paying too much attention to.

Xia Huang was not particularly sensitive to this huge difference in wealth and status. Taking advantage of the moment when all the bodyguards were shocked and speechless, Xia Huang walked up to Lu Qing and asked the question he was concerned about: "Zhu

Is it just recently that Ge opened a pavilion to accept disciples?"

"It has started now. However, there are too many people who have signed up. The third and fourth senior brothers in charge of this matter have done some kind of ****. Only the one who wins in the end can enter our bamboo pavilion." Lu Qingduo

After taking a few glances at Xia Huang, who performed well against the leader of the Black Wind Village, he asked, "What? You want to join our Bamboo Pavilion?"

"Yes." Xia Huang nodded slightly.

"Are you a genius?"

Lu Qing's question was too direct, and Xia Huang didn't know how to answer.

If you say you are a genius, it seems too proud and complacent. If you say you are not, you may lose the opportunity to worship in the Bamboo Pavilion.

Fortunately, someone came to Xia Huang's rescue.

"This Brother Lu." Zhao Hu was obviously much older than Lu Qing, but he still called Lu Qing his brother with a shy face. "This Brother Xia is definitely a genius! I was lucky enough to see him practice swordsmanship. How about welcoming him?"

The sword that catches the rising sun can only be wielded by a genius! In the battle just now, Brother Xia has not yet used his sword skills, otherwise, he would have won more easily!"

"No, no, no! That's not what I'm asking." Lu Qing shook his head, "Who has the confidence to go to my Zhuge to become a disciple, who is not confident in his own cultivation talent? What I'm asking is about other things besides cultivation.

Genius in this regard.”

"For example, the third and fourth senior brothers who are presiding over the apprentice selection ceremony this time, one of them is a genius in calligraphy and painting, the other is a genius in Go, and I... I am a genius who watches the excitement, no, I am a medical genius

A genius in this field. If you want to join our Bamboo Pavilion, in addition to your cultivation talent, you must also have other skills that you can use!" Lu Qing explained seriously.

Zhao Hu heard this and looked at Xia Huang worriedly.

At Xia Huang's age, it is not easy to cultivate to the sixth level of Qi-nurturing realm at this age. It is conceivable that most of his life of more than ten years must have been spent on cultivation. Now he still needs him

Isn’t it difficult for others to show their abilities in other areas?

"Brother Xia..."

"I can." Xia Huang replied calmly.

In addition to his talent in cultivation and achievements in swordsmanship, Xia Huang also has full confidence in his ability in forging!

If there is a blacksmith father who can't even show off his forging ability, wouldn't that make people laugh?

Even if no one laughs at him, my father will still beat him to death after he returns!

Seeing Xia Huang's decisive answer, Lu Qing's eyes flashed and he said: "I look forward to seeing you on Mingzhu Peak when I go back, my future junior brother. Hahahaha!"

After laughing, Lu Qing ignored Zhao Hu's plea to stay, waved his hand, turned around and headed in the completely opposite direction to Mingzhu Peak...

…

When Xia Huang, Zhao Hu and others arrived at Mingzhu Town the next day, an old man was anxiously waiting for their arrival.

This old man is specifically responsible for transporting things to the Bamboo Pavilion on Mingzhu Peak. According to what he said, he has been doing this since he was sixteen years old. Until now, half of his body is buried in the ground. He himself has long forgotten how many years have passed.

year.

Whenever the people of Zhuge needed to buy something from outside, he would be the one in charge of delivering it, and this time was no exception.

After counting the goods in the box one by one with a list, the old man put the agreed reward in a small box and handed it to the wealthy businessman Zhang Chun.

Although he got the money, Zhang Chun was not happy at all.

He didn't make this trip just to see this bad old man!

"Old man, where are the people from Zhuge?" Zhang Chun asked without giving up.

"Of course we went up to Mingzhu Peak." The old man pointed at Mingzhu Peak, which towered into the clouds. "The masters of Zhuge rarely come down the mountain."

"There isn't anyone at the bottom of the mountain?"

"There really isn't one at the bottom of the mountain, but there is one at the mountain gate halfway up the mountain." The old man had a good temper. He was not angry at all when faced with Zhang Chun's bad attitude. Instead, he explained in detail, "These days, the Bamboo Pavilion is being opened and closed.

The disciple selection ceremony is held outside the mountain gate halfway up the mountain, and the third and fourth disciples of Zhuge are presiding over there."

"Damn old man! You didn't tell me earlier!" Zhang Chun was overjoyed when he heard this. He took out a gold ingot from the box in his hand and threw it to the old man, "I'll reward you!"

After that, Zhang Chun held the box full of gold and ran towards Mingzhu Peak Mountain Road panting.

The old man looked at Zhang Chun's back, shook his head with a smile, called a child playing in the town over, and gave him the gold ingot in his hand: "Aniu, take this back to your mother."

The child named "A Niu", with a clear nose still on his face, looked blankly at the golden thing in his hand, and then looked up blankly at the kind old man. When he saw the old man nodding affirmatively at him, he

Then he ran towards a dilapidated house in the west of the town.

The old man stood up straight and saw Zhao Hu and other bodyguards looking at him with surprise and confusion. He explained with a smile: "This child's father died early and his mother has been sick. His life is miserable.

They make a living by relying on donations from people in the town. Such a big gold ingot is enough for the two of them to live a good life for many years."

"With all due respect, old man, your life is not rich, right?" Zhao Hu asked tentatively.

If the old man lived a wealthy life and did such a kind deed, Zhao Hu would still understand, but this old man does not live in a wealthy family now. The gray cloth shirt he is wearing is already many years old at first glance, and the patches on the cloth shirt are

You can see seven or eight at a glance.

This gold ingot is also a huge wealth for this old man.

"It doesn't matter that I'm half dead, and my life is a little worse. Moreover, no matter how bad my life is, it's still much better than the two of them."

"You have served Zhuge for so many years. Isn't the reward Zhuge gives you not enough to allow you to live a good life?" Zhao Hu was puzzled.

"Of course not." The question involved Zhuge, and the old man's expression couldn't help but become serious. "The head of Zhuge is a good man. He paid me very generously and even gave me some life-prolonging elixirs. If not for this, I would

This old bone has been buried in the ground a long time ago. However, the people in the town live in poverty. Most of the money Zhuge gave me has been shared with everyone. In fact, the boss also knew that he wanted to give me more several times.

Even if you take a little bit, I will reject it. People should be content..."

"Old sir." Zhao Hu had already changed his title to the old man, "I really admire you so much for your moral character, old man..."

"How can I be admired?" The old man smiled and waved his hand, looking up at Mingzhu Peak, "Actually, I was quite competitive when I was young, and I wished I could be better than others in everything. However, later on, with Zhuge's

The more people I interacted with, the more competitive I became without even realizing it. Then, I don’t know from which day, I suddenly fell in love with the feeling of helping others... This feeling is what really makes me happy.

Feeling happy..."

After hearing what the old man said, all the bodyguards, including Xia Huang and Zhao Hu, all looked at the green Mingzhu Peak, feeling an unprecedented yearning and excitement in their hearts.
