Chapter 1460: On a mission to the Northern Qi Dynasty, Haitang practiced Ruyi Jin
Grandmasters are also human beings, especially Zhou Chen and Ye Liuyun, the two great masters who made breakthroughs on their own. Compared to the other three grandmasters, they are more humane.
Zhou Chen has a very clear understanding of himself. The Grand Master is the top of the world in this world, but compared to everything he has experienced, it is really nothing.
He even has the ability to travel across the world. The power of the system cannot be described in words. The world he will experience in the future will definitely be a more martial world than Qing Yunian.
Therefore, for him, breaking through to the Grand Master means breaking through a realm. He has no more thoughts and does not feel that he is already above human beings and has become a higher-level existence.
Zhou Chen and Ye Liuyun are both great masters. When they sit together, they will naturally talk about martial arts. They are both masters of martial arts. They each have their own martial arts accumulation and path. Although they may not be able to borrow from each other, they can learn from each other.
Experience is no problem.
While talking, Ye Liuyun took the initiative to mention something.
"Not long ago, the person in Kyoto sent me a message asking me to return to the capital. Although he didn't specify what it was about, I probably guessed it. I think you should also be aware of it, right?"
Zhou Chen chuckled and said: "Of course, apart from dealing with the Grand Master, he probably won't look for you, and the person he wants to kill most in Kyoto is me."
Ye Liuyun also smiled.
"I'm really curious about what you did to make him desperately want to recall me."
"It's nothing, it's just that he wanted to plot against me, and I don't like being plotted against, so I went around the palace and put something on the bedside of the old Queen Mother."
"Ha ha."
Ye Liuyun laughed heartily. Although he was manipulated by Emperor Qing because of the Ye family, it did not mean that he was loyal to Emperor Qing. On the contrary, he was more dissatisfied.
Now that he knew that Emperor Qing was holding back because of Zhou Chen, he felt very happy and sighed in his heart, if he was as free and uninhibited as Zhou Chen, how could Emperor Qing take advantage of him.
"Actually, I'm really happy to know that you have become the Grand Master. Having you as my new addition makes me feel much more relaxed than before."
If it were just him, it would be easy for Emperor Qing to take advantage of him, but now that there is one more Zhou Chen, the three great masters check and balance each other, and his importance becomes more and more obvious. At least Emperor Qing does not dare to treat him like before.
Zhou Chen said softly: "Mr. Ye, you and I had a great chat today. Maybe we will have the opportunity to fight together in the future."
Ye Liuyun's eyes flashed, and he responded with a smile: "I'm really looking forward to such a day."
"In today's battle, both you and I will suffer losses."
"Yes, both sides suffer."
Zhou Chen and Ye Liuyun looked at each other and smiled, reaching a tacit understanding.
Zhou Chen didn't care about Emperor Qing, but Ye Liuyun was more worried, so Zhou Chen cooperated with him in acting.
From Ye Liuyun's attitude, it can be seen that he has no loyalty to Emperor Qing.
Of course, Zhou Chen wouldn't really trust him. After all, in the original plot, Ye Liuyun was able to make a lot of compromises for the Ye family. Who knows what he was thinking.
His attitude towards Ye Liuyun is that he is not cooperative or cooperative, but he is not exclusive either. He is neither an enemy nor a friend.
After a meal, Zhou Chen and Ye Liuyun said goodbye to each other and went their separate ways.
This time to go to Northern Qi, Zhou Chen did not take the land route, but chose to set off from the sea and take a boat to Northern Qi.
The ports in Jiangnan are relatively easy to access by boat. What is a little troublesome is that he has to bring his own horse on board the boat. Of course, it is troublesome, but in fact it is just a little extra money.
Qingguo, Kyoto!
Today is the day for the Qing Kingdom's mission to the Northern Qi Dynasty. Everyone is fully prepared and waiting for Fan Xian, the leader of the mission, to speak before they can set off.
Fan Xian was saying goodbye to his family and friends at this time. He had a special mission to go to Northern Qi this time, so the risks were relatively high, and his relatives and friends were worried.
After saying goodbye to the others, only Teng Zijing was left.
"I am your bodyguard. After receiving your money, I am responsible for protecting your safety. Now you won't let me go to Northern Qi with you and insist on letting me stay in Kyoto. What's going on?"
Originally, Teng Zijing had made preparations to go to Northern Qi with Fan Xian, but unexpectedly, Fan Xian told him yesterday that he would stay in Kyoto without taking him, which immediately made him anxious. There was a big fuss yesterday.
I said goodbye early this morning and here we are again.
Fan Xian said: "Teng Zijing, you are my bodyguard, but this time is different. It takes a long time to go to Beiqi and back. My family is worried about me, and I am also worried about my family, so I let you
You actually want me to protect my family by staying here, not afraid of ten thousand, but just in case."
Teng Zijing said dissatisfied: "Your father's official position is not low, and he has someone to protect the family. It doesn't make any difference if you have one more or one less me. If I go to Beiqi with you, I can still help you. Don't talk about it. I have already brought my luggage."
If you don't let me go, I have to go."
"I brought Wang Qinian with me, so you don't have to worry."
"Just because you brought Wang Qinian with you, I am even more worried."
Wang Qinian was dissatisfied after hearing this. He pointed at Teng Zijing and shouted: "What do you mean you are more worried about taking me with you? Teng Zijing, I found that you are really heartless. This is how you treat your savior."
Attitude?”
"Can you please stop mentioning your savior? I don't want to talk to you."
Teng Zijing and Wang Qinian stayed together and had many arguments. Of course, they only quarreled in words, but in fact they still had a very good relationship.
In the end, under Teng Zijing's persistent insistence, Fan Xian could not drive him away and could only agree to let him join the mission. Teng Zijing immediately happily joined the mission and began to compete with Wang Qinian for the right to drive the carriage.
.
Just when Fan Xian was about to set off, a convoy suddenly approached, and then a person walked towards the mission.
"Fan Xian, is Lord Fan here?"
Fan Xian looked at the person with confusion, then recognized him and asked, "Butler Tong, who are you?"
Tong Quan bowed to Fan Xian and replied: "Master Fan, I came to pay homage to Master Fan on the orders of the young master."
"Did Duke Zhenguo have something to give me?"
Fan Xian's expression suddenly changed. He had already received the news that Duke Zhen had left Kyoto many days ago.
Tong Quan said: "My young master is preparing to go to Northern Qi, but he has other things to do on the way, so some things are not convenient to carry. I learned that Mr. Fan is about to lead a delegation to Northern Qi, so he asked me to entrust the baggage to be taken to Northern Qi.
Give it to Master Fan, please take it to Northern Qi together with Master Fan. When my young master arrives in Northern Qi, he will go find Master Fan."
When Fan Xian heard this, he realized that he was asked to carry the goods, so he immediately nodded in agreement.
"No problem, we have to go to Northern Qi anyway, it doesn't matter how much we take with us."
??????55.??????
"Thank you, Lord Fan."
Tong Quan looked grateful and immediately asked someone to deliver the things. There were a lot of things, a total of more than a dozen boxes.
"Sir Fan, this is the betrothal gift that my young master has prepared to propose marriage to Her Royal Highness the Princess of Northern Qi, so I would like to trouble you to be more attentive to it."
Fan Xian's expression suddenly changed slightly, and he realized that this might not be a good job. If something happened to these betrothal gifts in the middle, he would not be able to report it to the Zhenguo Public Transport.
But even though he realized it was not a good job, he still accepted it and had no room to refuse.
"Butler Tong, please rest assured. As long as I am still alive, I will definitely bring Duke Zhen's belongings to Northern Qi."
Tong Quan felt grateful again.
After everything was ready, Fan Xian immediately commanded the delegation to set off.
On the carriage, Wang Qinian and Teng Zijing were sitting together. Both of them had just helped move things.
Wang Qinian sighed with emotion: "Our Duke is really awesome. There are probably good things in those dozen boxes. It's too lavish to propose marriage and give so many things."
Teng Zijing said angrily: "A big shot like Duke Zhen proposes marriage, do you think he is just like us ordinary people? What's more, he is planning to propose marriage to the princess of Northern Qi. Of course, he must be well prepared. This is a matter of face."
Wang Qinian sighed: "That's the truth, but it's a pity. If Duke Zhenguo can go with us, then this journey will definitely be much easier. By then, no matter what accident happens, it will be useless for anyone to come.
"
"You don't have to worry about it. If the Grand Master is here, why would Fang Xiaoxiao dare to come to the mission to cause trouble or seek death?"
Since his life was saved by Zhou Chen, Teng Zijing was not only grateful to Zhou Chen, but also worshiped the strong.
Zhou Chen took a boat from the port and set off all the way from the sea. His destination was Dongyi City. More than ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
Normally, in this kind of feudal society, traveling by water is faster than traveling by land, so Zhou Chen set out from Jiangnan, crossed Dadong Mountain in more than ten days, and arrived near the port of Dongyi City
.
I remembered that I told Yun Zhilan before that if I passed through Dongyi City again, I would pay him a visit again.
So after Zhou Chen got off the boat in Dongyi City, he rode his whirlwind and went to the Lord's Mansion of Dongyi City as a guest.
The difference from last time was that this time he stayed in the Dongyi City Lord's Mansion for two days before fighting Sigu Jian again.
This time the fight did not take three days and three nights, but ended in only half a day, because they were both familiar with each other's moves, and without a matter of life or death, it was difficult to tell the winner based on the true energy of the moves alone.
Although Si Gu Jian is a martial arts fanatic and a madman, he is not really stupid. He and Zhou Chen are just competing, so naturally they will not fight with all their lives.
After staying in Dongyi City for four days, Zhou Chen set out again, this time by land, riding the black horse Whirlwind, and leisurely headed to the capital of Northern Qi.
This was his second trip to Shangjing, and this time he took a different route.
Just when Zhou Chen was heading to the capital of Northern Qi alone, the envoy led by Fan Xian was approaching the border between Qing and Qi.
This time when escorting the delegation to Northern Qi, Fan Xian's secret mission was to kill Xiao En, so after approaching the border, he immediately used a trick to let Xiao Xiao go. Then he prepared an ambush in advance to get rid of the person he deliberately let go.
Let's go Sean.
But just when he grabbed Sean and was about to get rid of Sean, something unexpected happened. A girl who looked like a village girl appeared like an elf in the forest.
This girl's martial arts skills were astonishing. After some probing, Fan Xian guessed the girl's identity. She was Ku He's close disciple, the Northern Qi saintess Haitang Duoduo.
Fan Xian was worried that he had no experience in dueling with masters, so when he saw the ninth-grade Haitang Duoduo, he immediately became interested and took the initiative to provoke him, forcing Haitang Duoduo to fight against him.
But after a few moves, he was at an absolute disadvantage, and he quickly raised his hand to stop.
Fan Xian looked at Haitang Duoduo with doubtful eyes: "Why do I feel that your true energy is somewhat similar to the Ruyi energy of our great master Zhen Guogong of the Qing Kingdom?"
Zhou Chen had made several moves in front of him, so he was deeply impressed by Zhou Chen's true energy. Haitang Duoduo and Zhou Chen were naturally very different, but after the fight just now, he discovered that Haitang Duoduo's real energy was very different.
The Qi is slightly similar to Zhou Chen's Qi.
Haitang Duoduo put away her two axes and said in surprise: "You actually know about Zhou Chen's Ruyi Jin? What is your relationship with him?"
Fan Xian's eyes suddenly lit up: "I have been advised by Duke Zhen Guo. Duke Zhen Guo is my creditor. I still owe Duke Zhen Guo 70,000 taels of silver."
As soon as these words came out, even the injured Sean was shocked.
Haitang Duoduo couldn't help but said: "You still talk so high-sounding about the money you owe. You are really thick-skinned."
Fan Xian, however, did not take it seriously and said with a smile: "Of course, how many people in the world can owe the Grand Master money? What's more, there is no one else like me who owes 70,000 taels."
Haitang Duoduo said: "Ruyi Jin was taught to me by Zhou Chen."
"I see. In this case, our relationship will be close. You should be here to kill Sean. We can cooperate."
Fan Xian took the initiative to get closer. He felt that Zhou Chen's ability to teach Haitang Duoduo his martial arts skills proved that their relationship was not simple. Naturally, he did not want to become an enemy of Haitang Duoduo.
Haitang Duoduo was not interested: "Forget about cooperation or anything, don't you want to kill Sean? You can do it now. As long as you kill him, I will leave immediately."
But before they could negotiate, a sharp arrow suddenly struck. It was Yan Xiaoyi who had followed the order of the eldest princess to kill Fan Xian.
Yan Xiaoyi hasn't been solved yet, but there is another strong enemy over there, Sean's adopted son. Uesugi Tiger leads a team to rescue Sean.
All forces gathered at the borders of Qing and Qi to start a thrilling competition.
At the same time, Zhou Chen arrived at Shangjing City after many days. However, he did not go directly to Shangjing City, but went to another place, Ku He's secluded place.
He knew that Fan Xian had already sent an envoy to Northern Qi. Calculating the time, Wu Zhu should be ready to take action by this time to help Fan Xian block the great master Ku He.
Zhou Chen has met all the four great masters in the world, but Wu Zhu has not yet met. The main reason is that Wu Zhu is a robot, and he really doesn't have much interest in fighting Wu Zhu.
However, he himself was not interested in fighting the robot, but he was still very interested in watching others fight against Wu Zhu.
So he was going to Ku He's secluded place to watch the battle between Wu Zhu and Ku He.
Although he has never been to Ku He's secluded place, it is not difficult to find a place with a waterfall near the capital.
