Jiangning City, Cui's old shop, is doing a booming business these days, all because the most beautiful women in the world live here. Whether it's Jianghu people or locals, they flock to the old shop to order some food and try their luck.
See if I can see the woman.
Cui Mingdao was sitting in the private room on the second floor, looking at the long queue in front of the old shop downstairs, and couldn't help but sigh: "The charm of Pinshan is indeed extraordinary. Look at how lively it is downstairs. I don't think it's as good as that."
Pinshan might as well move in with the old store manager! Now the Cui family will take care of Pinshan’s food, clothing, housing and transportation."
Mu Pinshan smiled sweetly and said, "I think it would be better for me to just commit myself to Mr. Mingdao! It can also attract more diners for the Cui family for free!"
"Okay! Okay! - Well! Well, that's not what I meant!" Cui Mingdao looked at Mu Pinshan's cannibalistic look and waved his hands hurriedly.
Mu Pinshan glared at Cui Mingdao, stood up and came to Li Taiping and said: "The birthday gift for the master has been bought, how about we leave tomorrow!"
Before Li Taiping could reply, Cui Mingdao interrupted: "Where are you two going? Are you leaving me alone?"
Li Taiping smiled and said: "I plan to accompany Jiumei back to the mountain to celebrate her birthday."
Cui Mingdao frowned and said: "You two are going back together? If you are not a brother, I will pour cold water on you two. I just want to ask Pinshan, how do you introduce my brother to your master and senior brother? Isn't it a bit rash? Aren't you afraid?
Did your master throw this boy down the mountain?"
Mu Pinshan had not thought about this before. He just thought that with Li Taiping accompanying him, he would be happy along the way. Now that Cui Mingdao said this, Mu Pinshan came to his senses and couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
Seeing that Mu Pinshan was in trouble, Li Taiping was about to speak, but Cui Mingdao glared at him, and Cui Mingdao said: "This guy's reputation is not famous enough, and his martial arts skills are not good enough. He will definitely not be popular if he goes up the mountain at this time."
!Although saints pay more attention to character and don’t care about my brother’s cultivation, after all, he is a bit lacking in consciousness! So listen to my advice, if you let my brother go up the mountain, it is best to let him climb the mountain alone with a sword.
If you go up the mountain, no one will look down upon you!"
Mu Pinshan and Li Taiping knew clearly that what Cui Mingdao said made sense. After all, Zhang Yajiu was a martial saint. Of course, a martial saint would pay more attention to martial arts cultivation. If you climb the mountain by yourself, you should be protected by Mu Pinshan.
, this difference is huge, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a world of difference.
Li Taiping didn't say anything, but hurried back to the house to get a nanmu box, brought it to Mu Pinshan and opened it, only to see a jar of wine inside: "Dongxuan Guanhantan Old Wine, Honglian said this wine is a good thing,
Money is hard to come by outside! A few days ago, I went to Fangshan and secretly bought a jar. I have been reluctant to drink it and gave it to my master to keep. I will give it to the saint today. Ninth sister, please take it up the mountain for me!"
Cui Mingdao looked at the wine jar eagerly, and couldn't help laughing and scolding: "They say that women in college are not good enough to stay in college, and their elbows are turned outward. I really didn't expect Brother Taiping..."
Mu Pinshan just looked back at Cui Mingdao, and Cui Mingdao swallowed the next words back into his stomach.
Mu Pinshan turned around, smiled knowingly and said, "When the old Taoist celebrates his birthday, I will bring him wine from Zhujian Mountain."
"Jiumei is determined! How long will Jiumei stay back in the mountain this time?" Li Taiping asked.
Cui Mingdao joked: "We haven't even separated yet! Are you asking when we'll see you again?"
Mu Pinshan turned around and ran towards Cui Mingdao. Upon seeing this, Cui Mingdao hurriedly ran out of the private room with his head in his arms and said with a smile: "Look at me, I don't have any eyesight at all. Let's talk slowly. I
Let’s go, go far!”
"When I go back to the mountain this time, the master will definitely test my cultivation. If I can't satisfy the master, I'm afraid I won't be able to go down the mountain for a short time!" Mu Pinshan lowered his head and fiddled with the corner of his clothes.
Li Taiping put the maroon sword box behind him in front of him, touched the lines of the sword box and said: "There are two swords here. When there is a third sword, I will climb the mountain before you go down the mountain!"
Mu Pinshan looked at the sword box and said word by word: "The master can only go to the foot of the mountain, and then up to the mountainside. Do what you can!"
Li Taiping suddenly laughed and said: "The old Taoist priest said that the most difficult mountain to climb in the world is not Kunlun, the ancestor of Dragon Vein, but the Sword-making Mountain with swords everywhere! I want to climb mountains to see swords, which is more like climbing mountains to see people, so it should be fast
!”
Mu Pinshan's pretty face turned red, and she said with a smile: "Come with me to visit Qinhuai, I haven't seen that river properly yet!"
Dressed in white, with a white horse, looking back at the horse in Tsing Yi, it remains the same...
It is the time when gatherings, separations, and reunions are inevitable, and it has always been beyond human control. This is the case in the world of rivers and lakes, where grudges, resentments, origins, and demise are beyond the reach of human beings.
Cui Mingdao patted Li Taiping and said: "The person has been invisible for a long time! If you want to see me sooner, practice your sword well!"
Li Taiping turned around and said with a smile: "I heard that Cui has a sword that is very powerful. When are you going to bring me to see it?"
Cui Mingdao quickly covered Li Taiping's mouth and looked around carefully. When he saw no one around, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "How dare you say that! You dare to look at my mother's sword, but don't blame my brother for not warning you in advance.
, the people who have seen that sword are all down there now!"
As Li Taiping walked forward, he said to himself: "I have seen the Tuoba family's sword, but I can't see the Cui family's sword, so whose sword should I see next?"
Cui Mingdao caught up with Li Taiping and looked at the back of his head: "You kid is crazy! If you want to see my mother's sword, you have a chance. Please help me find out about Yuchi's treasure first. Maybe my mother will be in a good mood."
Okay, I won’t be able to kill you with one sword, I don’t know for sure.”
Speaking of treasures, Li Taiping shook his head and said: "Hundreds of years have passed. If there were real treasures, they would have been dug up long ago. Maybe Tuoba Jiong made his fortune from treasures! I don't know what these people in the world are thinking. This is worse than
It’s hard to have a pie in the sky, but I just want to hit it! I think you may not be lucky enough to hit it, but it is possible to hit it with all your imagination!”
"I don't care if others bump into me or not. Anyway, you, Li Taiping, have to bump into me together." Cui Mingdao said, putting his arm around Li Taiping's shoulders.
I don't know who started the rumor recently, saying that there are clues to the Yuchi treasure, which is in the Qinhuai River. Now the Qinhuai River is boiling. Regardless of whether it is right or wrong, as long as you go to the Qinhuai River, you can see the Qinhuai waves rolling and bubbles rising.
Those who are good at martial arts and those who are not martial arts dare to jump into the river as long as they know how to use a dog paddle twice. This is a disaster for the governor of the county.
I saw the Sheriff wearing a luxurious gown, squatting by the Qinhuai River with a frown on his face, looking at the fools vying to jump into the water and sighing. The Sheriff was not sighing for those idiots who were diving for fun.
, He was sighing for himself. He shouldn't be such an unlucky captain. He was so busy with the weather. Either someone forced himself on the boat to cause trouble, or someone made a fight on the Suzaku Bridge. It had just stopped for two days, and it happened again.
People started to jump into the river, and it happened every day.
A soldier who was good at water ran to the Sheriff's side. Just as he was about to report, he saw the Sheriff waving his hands and saying: "Get away and don't get me wet! Tell me directly, how many of them can you catch?"
The soldier took a few steps back, shook his soaked clothes, bowed and said: "Seventy-three! This is the number of people in the morning. I estimate that when the water temperature comes up in the afternoon, the number will be even more!"
"Idiots! A bunch of idiots! When you see people diving, you dive too. When you see people digging for treasures, you dig for treasures. When you see people becoming emperors, why don't you become emperors too!" The county guard cursed as he looked at the treasure hunters floating and sinking in the river.
The guard on the side lowered his head and whispered: "Master, be careful what you say!"
"Be careful what your mother says! You're in the fucking water, who can hear it? If you were fucking willing to listen, I'd still be squatting here drinking from the northwest wind!" The county guard glared at the guard fiercely,
He opened his mouth and cursed.
The county guard was so busy, and as the county guard, Mao Santang, of course, had no time to spare. He hurried to Tuoba's house in a sedan chair early in the morning.
At this time, it was almost noon. Mao Santang was waiting outside the political affairs hall and looked in from time to time. It seemed that he was a little impatient from waiting. As he was looking, he saw King Bao Yan coming out of the political affairs hall, and Mao Santang hurriedly greeted him.
He went up, bent down and said with a smile: "Brother Bao, does the head of the family have some free time?"
Bao Yanluo said with a cold face: "The master of the house still has some things to deal with. Later the county guard can go directly to Juyuan Pavilion to wait. The master of the house has prepared wine and food and wants to have a few drinks with the adults."
Hearing what Bao Yanluo said, although Mao Santang was anxious, he had to smile and say: "That's great! Brother Bao comes to my house when he has time, and I still have a good bottle of wine that I'm not willing to drink!"
I saw that Bao Yanluo didn't even have a smile on his face. He still held up his hands with a cold face and said: "Your Excellency, I appreciate your kindness. Bao Yanluo appreciates it! Since he is busy with military affairs and has many responsibilities, I may not have time to bother you!"
Bao Yanluo directly rubbed Mao Santang's face, but Mao Santang was not angry, but smiled and said: "It should be! It should be! Brother Bao is the head of the family's most capable general, and he should give top priority to military affairs. However, if Brother Bao once
When you have free time, you can come and sit in my house."
Bao Yanluo nodded coldly, said goodbye and left. Looking at Bao Yanluo's back, Mao Santang was still a little confused.
When Mao Santang first came to Jiangning City, he also tried to contact Tuoba's family, but except for meeting Tuoba once and having a glass of wine on the first day he took office, they ignored him and treated him as a county governor as if he was nothing. So...
, ever since Mao Santang was recommended to this Jiangning County by Lu Zhaoxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, he has never had a good day. He is always on tenterhooks, guarding day and night for fear that a strongman will come at night and kill his whole family.
Mao Santang also knew that there was no point in taking precautions. Tuoba Jiong's attempt to kill his whole family was no different than crushing a few ants.
After several sleepless nights, Mao Santang discovered that Tuoba Jiong had no intention of killing him, so he decided to take up his duties as the county guard. Recently, Jiangning City had asked him to do so because of Yuchi's treasure.
This county governor is causing trouble. You can take care of it. The Tuoba family has never taken a stand on this matter. Just let it go. It is unjustifiable for him, the county governor, both emotionally and rationally. He has no choice but to do it.
To be able to bite the bullet and come to see Tuoba Jiong...
