Chapter 1 Refuge in Qingcheng

This is an ancient continent, as old as an old man with gray hair in his old age. Therefore, the spiritual energy is extremely weak and the earth is extremely barren.

Qianjiaji at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain was named after people from all over Kyushu gathered here. It is a well-known market town. Maybe there were not as many Qianjiaji at the beginning, but now Qianjiaji has already exceeded the number of Qianjia, covering an area of ​​​​square

Within a few dozen miles, it is already a veritable gathering of thousands of families.

The design of Qianjiaji is extremely regular. Two cross-shaped vertical crossing avenues divide Qianjiaji into four equal parts of the market: southeast, southeast and northwest. Each market has many people coming and going every day. It is very lively.

Especially on Dawei Day, which happens once every three days, villagers from all around will come to the market, and even vendors from all over the country will gather here. It is bustling and lively. This has also contributed to the prosperity of Qianjiaji and formed the southwestern frontier.

A commodity distribution center.

It's another late autumn season. Last night's rain did not bring any vitality to the earth. Instead, it made autumn even more desolate and desolate. The sky was dim and bright. Because it had just rained, everything was foggy, making it difficult to see clearly.

Things ten feet away,

Such a morning was a morning for sleeping in. Even the busiest vendors would not get up so early. But strangely, on this foggy morning, a carriage drove into Qianjiaji at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain. A man in his fifties or sixties drove into the carriage.

A 4-year-old capable man with a goatee was sweating profusely and driving a carriage to Qianjiaji. Looking at his posture, it was obvious that he was driving all night.

"Young lady, please be patient a little longer, we'll be there soon," the man driving the car said excitedly as he looked at Qianjiaji not far away.

"It's okay, I'm just sorry for you, Uncle Quan," a pleasant voice came from the carriage,

"What the young lady said, this is what I should do," the old man driving the carriage called Uncle Quan said, but the carriage did not slow down.

After a while, they drove into Qianjiaji and walked straight to the West Market. After walking for a few quarters of an hour, the carriage stopped in front of a large house. Although this house was not as good as the big houses in the market town,

But it can be regarded as an above-average house, except that the door is locked, and it seems that the owner is not there.

"We're here, young lady, please get out of the car. Old lady, help young lady down quickly." The old man who called Uncle Quan got out of the car and said,

"You don't have to say that." I saw an old woman with gray hair getting out of the carriage, and then carefully helping a young woman wearing a white veil to get out of the carriage. The young woman was still in her arms.

Holding a sleeping baby less than one year old,

"Is this the place?" the young woman asked.

"Yes, young mistress, although it is not as good as my hometown in Jizhou, the house is fully equipped and pretty good. The old slave comes to visit once or twice a year, and also asks the family next to me to help take care of it, so it is not broken.

"House," the old man named Uncle Quan said, pointing to a small house next to him, then unlocked and opened the door, "Young lady, come in quickly."

"Thank you Uncle Quan"

"We will live here temporarily from now on, and we will make plans after the young master comes to meet us," said the old man named Uncle Quan.

"It all depends on Uncle Quan"

"You go in first and have a rest, and I'll come back after I finish moving the things." He then moved the things from the carriage into the house.

The young woman was helped into the house by the old woman. She saw that the house was quite spacious. Although it was small, it was well-equipped with all the internal organs. The layout was the same as that of the old house in Jizhou. However, because the area was smaller, the number of rooms was only the same.

not enough,

"It's not bad. It's the same layout as my hometown in Jizhou," the young woman said.

"It is indeed the same. I heard from the old man that this was designed and built when I was an official here," the old woman said,

"Oh, no wonder it is so elegant. It was originally designed and built by my father-in-law."

"Let's go inside and have a rest. We've just been traveling non-stop these days. It's really difficult for the young lady. She must be exhausted," the old woman said kindly.

"Aunt Quan, I'm not tired," the young woman said,

"Stop trying to be brave. Don't tell me that you don't know any martial arts. Even someone with some skills like me is having trouble with this journey. Come on, give me the young master," the old woman said.

The young woman no longer insisted and handed the baby in her arms to the old woman. Indeed, she was tired. She had never experienced such hardship in her growth.

I remember that when she was still a young girl, she was the apple of her parents' eyes. Even after she got married, everyone in the family was very kind to her and did not let her suffer at all. So why didn't the old woman feel sorry for her all the way?

In the eyes of the woman, she is only a half-grown child. Although she is married and has children, she is only sixteen or seventeen years old. She is still in her youth.

Entering the hall, I saw that the windows were bright and clean. It was obvious that they had just been wiped down not long ago. She could no longer care about so many things. The young woman found an armchair and sat down: "Is Yuan'er awake?"

"Not yet. The young master is so good. He didn't cry even during this bumpy journey." The old woman looked at the baby in her arms lovingly and walked to sit next to the young woman. The young woman looked at the baby happily and said:

Fingering the baby's nose, the baby's nose wrinkled.

"The young master's nose is really like the young master, but his eyes and mouth are like the young master's. He will be as handsome as the young master in the future," the old woman said,

"I don't want him to be as good-looking as Brother Qing, as long as he has good facial features, lest his wife will be as careless as me in the future," the young woman said thoughtfully,

"The young master will definitely not do it. Even though the young master sometimes causes some troubles, after all, he only has the young mistress in his heart, and he has never done anything deviant. If he did, it was only before he got married to the young mistress." The old woman

People said,

"If he does anything deviant, I will ignore him," the young woman said angrily.

The old woman just shook her head and smiled after hearing this. Indeed, their young master could be said to be a versatile scholar. He was selected as a scholar at the age of fifteen. He would have made great progress in his official career. Who would have thought that after becoming a scholar, he would give up his career.

Congwu made his father angry until he was half dead. In the end, his father had no choice but to let him go.

Unexpectedly, this young master is also a prodigy in martial arts. In less than five years, he has mastered first-class swordsmanship. In addition, he is extremely handsome, dignified and elegant, so he has won the title of "The Beautiful Swordsman" in the world.

Speaking of the "Fairy Swordsman" Wu Shangqing, not only the unknown person in the Jianghu world is unknown, but for a time the "Fairy Swordsman" has become the target pursued by many Jianghu women, and he will inevitably do some ridiculous things.

It wasn't until he met his fiancée that he got married on the fingertips, that he was immediately captivated by her fiancée's peerless beauty, and her profound connotation made him, a scholar, have no choice but to admire her. From then on, he stopped entering the world and only accompanied her.

Wife, and regaining the classics, preparing to achieve success in career to comfort his parents, wife and children,

However, everything depends on cause and effect, and the things he caused in the world often came to his door after his marriage. This gave the young woman a particularly headache, and she could only feel itchy in her heart.

It’s just that she really loves her husband very much. In her whole life, she has never met a man like her husband who can make her fall in love with her. In addition, her husband is also very good at coaxing people, and she was coaxed by him in no time.

She was very happy, and she didn't do anything sorry for her after the marriage. Therefore, in the more than a year after the marriage, she felt that she was the happiest person in the world.

Who knows, something happened again at this time. It can be seen from the husband's sad face that this time he is a very difficult person to deal with. In the end, the husband decided to let two family members take him away from home to avoid his sharp edges and wait for things to happen.

He would make other plans in the past, and he would inform his parents of visiting relatives and friends separately, so they discussed coming to the safest southwest border.

"Aunt Quan, can you tell me if something will happen to Brother Qing?" the young woman asked worriedly. She didn't know how many times she had asked this question. It was obvious that she was extremely worried about her husband.

"With the young master's skills, even if you lose, you can't beat him. The young master's light kung fu is the best in the world. As long as he escapes, no one can do anything to him." The old woman didn't know how many times she answered like this. Obviously, she was also very

Worried about this young master, I said this not only to comfort the young woman, but also to comfort herself.

At this time, the old man named Uncle Quan had already moved all the luggage into the house, including seven large boxes.

"Uncle Quan, why are there so many things?" the young woman said in surprise.

"Oh, we don't have many things. We only have two boxes. The remaining five boxes are all medicinal materials for the young master's body." The old man wiped the sweat from his forehead and said,

"It's true, Brother Qing, he makes Yuan'er cry every time he uses those potions. I really don't know what he thinks."

"You can't blame the young master. Making these potions is very good for the young master's health," the old man said.

"Yes, yes, you see, there is nothing wrong with the young master's journey. On the contrary, he can eat and sleep. It seems to me that this has something to do with the potion that the young master made." The old woman also echoed,

"It must be like this," the old man also said happily, "This prescription was obtained by the young master through hard work. Even if the young master does not practice martial arts in the future, it will be beneficial to the body."

"Is it really?"

"Of course it's true," the two old men said in unison,

Seeing that the two old men were so sure, she no longer had any objections. She knew that these two old men were extremely loyal to their family. They were a couple that her father-in-law saved when he was an official in Yangzhou. For this reason, her father-in-law's family almost had a disaster.

bring about death,

She only knew that the old man's surname was Zhao Mingquan and the old woman's surname was Fang Xiumin. At that time, she was being hunted by her enemies and was discovered by her husband. So she used clever tricks to get rid of the pursuers and brought them home. Her father-in-law didn't say anything and showed his sincerity.

He entertained Zhao Quan and his wife and invited famous local doctors to treat their illnesses and injuries. After they recovered, the father-in-law gave them a lot of money to help them on their way.

Because of this, he offended the couple's enemy, and a few years later, when his father-in-law was leaving office, he was almost assassinated by the couple's enemy. Fortunately, Zhao Quan and his wife arrived in time, not only saving their benefactor, but also avenging the family's destruction.

,

From then on, Zhao Quan and his wife had no worries. In order to repay the father-in-law's family for saving their lives, Zhao Quan and his wife retired from the world and became the bodyguards of the father-in-law's family. Of course, the people in the father-in-law's family treated them with great courtesy and never regarded them as human beings.

They treated the family well, and also gave the family's financial management rights to the couple. This process lasted for more than ten years.

So whenever she saw her son crying after being soaked in potion and came forward to persuade her, her husband would tell her that he was a useless scholar. To be a useful scholar, he must practice both civil and martial arts. If they had strong martial arts back then,

He wouldn't have been nearly assassinated to death, which is why he gave up his studies and became a martial artist.

There was nothing she could do when her husband said this. After all, he was thinking about the future of the child. When she heard the child crying, she had no choice but to endure the pain in her heart.

I didn't expect it to be really useful. She had already been damaged along the way. If she hadn't reached her destination, she wouldn't have left even if she was killed. However, there was nothing strange about her son.

Although the son was held in his arms and the bumps he received were certainly not as rough as theirs, but judging from his age, the bumps he suffered must have been no less than theirs, or even worse. Since he was still safe and sound, this was deeply understandable.

It shocked her soul, and also gave her a shot in the arm to worry about when her child would cry when soaked in potion.

"Where is my guzheng? Have you brought it?" the young woman said,

"That's a lot. Of course I brought it. Isn't that what's on the box?" Zhao Quan pointed to the things wrapped in silk on the box and said.

"I thought he had forgotten it," the young woman said with satisfaction.

"The young master may be able to forget other things, but he will never forget the young mistress's guzheng." Zhao Quan smiled and said, "Young mistress, you'd better take a look at the room first to see which room is suitable for you so that you can move your things in."

"Yes, by the way, which room did Brother Qing live in before?" the young woman said,

"The young master used to live in a room in the east wing of the backyard," Zhao Quan said.

"Oh, let me go and have a look"

"Then I'll accompany you to have a look," Fang Xiumin said,

"Then there's Aunt Laoquan."

After a while, under the leadership of Fang Xiumin, they entered the room where Wu Shangqing lived before. As soon as they entered the room, the young woman fell in love with it: "Aunt Quan, this is the room, we will live in this room."

"Okay, I knew the young lady would choose this room. Look at how beautiful the surrounding scenery is, with mountains and rivers. It's not any worse than where you live in Jizhou," Fang Xiumin said.

"It's really no worse than those in Jizhou," the young woman said with satisfaction. Seeing the surroundings of the room reminded her of how she and her husband would spend every day here, and she was a little intoxicated.

"Then I'll ask the old man to move the things in. You can go and have a rest. The decoration here will be left to us and my wife," Fang Xiumin said,

"Then I'll help you two."

In just a few minutes, everything at home was arranged at dawn, and Zhao Quan went to the market outside to purchase food and other daily necessities. All that was left was to wait for the arrival of Wu Shangqing and his parents.
