Chapter 2 The rich man in the water town (2)

Zhong Geng's eldest disciple Wu Zhen, a hundred-wheel master, almost advanced to the Qianlun Master. He is Zhong Geng's most proud disciple. He is only twenty-eight years old today and is expected to break through to the Qianlun Master at the age of thirty. At this age, he reaches the Qianlun Master, which means that he is very likely to enter the realm of the Secret Wheel Master in this life. A Secret Wheel Master, in a remote place, can definitely be the king.

Wu Zhen discussed with his master for the middle of the night yesterday, and the only conclusion he came to was to try his best to make friends with each other. As long as a young man like Lei Xingfeng did not anger him, it would not be detrimental to them. And what reassures them the most is that such a genius would never stay in this place for a long time. This place should be just a place where he lives temporarily, which means that he would not threaten their local power at all.

So, Wu Zhen came over to invite him in the early morning.

Lei Xingfeng did not refuse, but took Zhou Xin with him. As for Uncle Zhou Tong, he was not willing to go. It was really a difficult thing for honest people to socialize with others.

The reason why Lei Xingfeng had his own ideas with Zhou Xin was that he knew that he could not stay in the local area for a long time, so that Zhou Xin could know Zhong Geng, a local snake with powerful force, would be beneficial to Zhou Xin's future development.

Go back to the market along the dock.

The water market in the early morning is very beautiful, with a faint mist, a few water birds flying leisurely, and the sound of water is gentle, so the house seems to be floating on the water surface. Many people have already started setting up stalls on the wooden street, all of which are food stalls. There are waterways beside the wooden street, and small boats are rowing by the market. After entering the market, noisy sounds come to your face.

Wu Zhen laughed and said, "This market is the busiest place near the water. There are few people gathering together in other places to live together. When the rainy season comes, there will be more people."

Lei Xingfeng said: "Rain season?"

Wu Zhen said: "Well, the rainy season is not suitable for fishing in the distance. Fishermen will gather, especially in the two months when the rain is the most severe. At that time, almost all fishermen outside will come back to avoid the storm."

Lei Xingfeng is not very familiar with the local climate. He has always lived in mountainous areas, where there are warm and cold seasons. Unlike here, it is divided into two seasons, but it is rainy and dry seasons. There will be a large amount of land in the dry season. During the rainy season, this place is full of water. The exposed land in the past will be submerged again, forming a large area of ​​swamp lakes, so the locals are all fishermen and no land residents.

Along the way, the three of them soon arrived at the residential area behind the market, with large areas of water wooden houses.

Wu Zhen whistled, and a small boat came over, and a strong fisherman said, "Master." After greeting, he held the boat back and waited for the three of them to board the boat.

The three of them got on the boat and sat down. The fisherman said, "Sit down." As he said that, he pushed the bamboo pole hard and pushed the boat hard. Then he paddled and walked along the waterway.

In a moment, I arrived at an independent water courtyard with a large wooden platform. Zhou Xin shouted: "Brother Lei, look, that crocodile and dragon fish is on it!"

On the platform, a huge crocodile and dragon fish has been divided into several segments, and the skin has been divided. A huge fish head is standing on the platform, and the teeth in the mouth are revealed. Each one is the size of a palm, emitting a faint white light, like jade.

Zhou Xin was really curious, so he ran to see it after getting on the platform. Wu Zhen immediately ordered someone to follow him in case someone bumped into the child. He now knew that Lei Xingfeng was not very good to Zhou Xin, so he asked someone to follow Zhou Xin and he personally accompanied Lei Xingfeng into the room.

Lei Xingfeng noticed that the rooms here were built very exquisitely, completely different from the houses in the market. The houses in the market were rough and simple, and could satisfy their living and life. The houses here were much more exquisite, with carved doors and windows, and the roof was covered with glazed tiles. The same was true on the ridge. On the eaves, there was a string of wind chimes hanging, which made a crisp sound with the breeze.

The huge columns made of logs are carved with various water beasts. The wooden boards on the ground are extremely thick. You can tell that when you step on it, this is completely different from the wooden boards on the market. If you step on it, you will make a creaking sound when you step on it. There is no sound here. You can imagine how many materials are used below. You can tell at a glance that this is the method of a rich man. With Zhong Geng's strength, he is definitely a rich man in a small place.

Carved railings and painted buildings, exquisite carpets, veils fluttering, and all kinds of green plants and flowers are found in the corners of the corridor. There are many ordinary servants who immediately bow to Wu Zhen when they see him and call him the eldest son.

Lei Xingfeng couldn't help but sigh that he was a secret master and had never been treated like this. Before practicing, he even had to worry about three meals. After practicing, he fought continuously and experienced many times. I don't know how richer than this young master, but in terms of quality of life, he could not compare to Wu Zhen anyway.

The largest house is in the center of the water courtyard. After passing several corridors, we come to the central house. It is a large house with open sides. Because the climate here is warm, the climate is very warm whether it is rainy or dry season. Therefore, many rooms of wealthy families are hollowed out on all sides, only light veils are used to cover the invasion of mosquitoes. This room is more than 300 square meters, with only a dozen huge columns supporting it, and a large number of green plants are placed around it.

Lei Xingfeng couldn't help but praise: "A very good building." He is also a knowledgeable person. Although the building is extremely exquisite, his expression is also very calm.

Wu Zhen nodded secretly. Only those with more knowledgeable experiences can have such a look. He has seen many local rich people. When he entered here, he looked stunned. Zhong Geng came out and smiled and said, "Welcome, hehe, it's a little simple." He said politely.

Lei Xingfeng said: "It's already very good."

Behind Zhong Geng is Han Xiaobao, and Tian Dabing did not appear at all. Yesterday, Tian Dabing's performance disappointed him very much. If it weren't for the fact that the Tian family had a lot of power locally, I was afraid that he would drive this guy away immediately, which would have caused trouble to the master.

The four of them sat down, and a servant brought breakfast. Lei Xingfeng said, "Take a serving for my little brother."

Zhong Geng gave an order, and immediately a servant went to the platform to serve Zhou Xin for breakfast.

The breakfast was very rich, including rice, porridge, various fried fish pieces, and many pickled vegetables. Lei Xingfeng can not know much, they are all local specialty products and the taste is quite good. He was very satisfied with this meal.

After breakfast, Zhong Geng began to test Lei Xingfeng. He hoped to know which sect Lei Xingfeng was from and why he came to this remote place.

Of course Lei Xingfeng would not tell the truth. He just said it simply. It was the request of the master. He came here to practice for a while without a special purpose.

Although Zhong Geng was half-believing and half-doubted, he felt relieved. He saw that Lei Xingfeng had no malice. The experience of disciples was an act that all major sects had. Any disciple of any sect would go out to experience it, with all kinds of reasons and all kinds of strange experiences. He had no doubt about this at all.

Han Xiaobao didn't say anything. She looked at Lei Xingfeng curiously. She really couldn't figure it out that a person of such a young age actually practiced better than a master. A secret wheel master, that is extremely powerful. So far, she has only seen a secret wheel master, who is at least seventy or eighty years old. She is really arrogant. She didn't expect that a young man could practice the secret wheel master. I really don't know how this person practiced.

Zhong Geng said: "Brother Lei, since you have come here to experience it, you should live with me in the future. It is more comfortable than living on a boat."

Lei Xingfeng flatly refused. He didn't want to live here, and it was inconvenient to practice anything. He said, "This is not necessary. I still live on the boat, but there is one thing that I have to trouble Mr. Zhong."

Zhong Geng said: "Please say that as long as I can help, there will be no problem."

Lei Xingfeng said: "I need a small boat, well, I can pay for it." He considered that if the rainy season comes, he needs to go out to practice. Thunderstorms are the golden season for him to practice. He needs to quickly improve his strength here. He has to go out alone and it is impossible to bother Uncle Zhou anymore. Moreover, it is very dangerous to go out on rainy days, especially on thunderstorms. Uncle Zhou is an ordinary person and he can't stop thunder and lightning.

Zhong Geng said in surprise: "You want to buy a small boat... Uh, no problem, I have it here, I will give you one directly, um, do you want a servant?"

Lei Xingfeng said: "No need to give it away, I will buy it, and you don't have a servant."

Zhong Geng smiled and said, "It's just a small boat, you really don't need to buy it. Haha, the boat is worthless locally."

Lei Xingfeng thought for a while and forgot it. For him, a small boat is really nothing. He is not an ordinary person. He nodded and said, "Okay, thank you for that." It is still necessary to thank him.

Zhong Geng immediately smiled. He was very satisfied with Lei Xingfeng's attitude. He immediately ordered his men to prepare a good boat.

When communicating with Zhong Geng, Lei Xingfeng got a lot of news, which was not available from Uncle Zhou. This place is indeed very remote. It is an inconspicuous small corner of Wanhuzhou. I heard that you can go to Jumanzhou in half a year. It is where Lei Xingfeng came from. It is at least ten years away from the center of Wanhuzhou. Of course, if a practitioner uses the ancient wheel passage, it won’t take long.

Compared with Jumanzhou, Wanhuzhou is relatively lively. Not only is the city more populated, but there are also many cultivation sects. Even in remote small places, there are many cultivators. However, the world is too big and the land is really vast and sparsely populated. In a small place, even if there are cultivators, the number of people will not be too large. Moreover, the level is relatively low. A Wanlun Master or even a Thousand Wheel Master is enough to control a place.

Many practitioners who have no hope of promotion will eventually choose to return to their hometown to develop, or find a remote small place to be a local rich man and live in a place, which is enough to develop a small family.

Zhong Geng said: "Brother Lei, are you free in the past few days?"

Lei Xingfeng said: "Is there anything wrong?"
