Chapter 148 Returning to Qixia Town, Jade Bee grows stronger
It can be clearly seen that this knife matches my style very well. It is very easy to use and can even enhance the power of my knife skills.
At least you don't have to worry about weapons anymore.
Moreover, this knife is inconspicuous at first sight, but now that I have looked at it for a long time, it becomes more and more pleasing to the eye. The simple lines and narrowed blade bring a different kind of beauty.
After Yan Ming studied it for a long time, he hung it back on his waist.
In fact, Yan Ming wanted to check the two bags he got.
The personal belongings of the two great masters must be a considerable amount of wealth, and even he couldn't hold back his curiosity.
But now in front of Ximen Chuixue, I can only suppress this thought.
Ximen Chuixue confirmed Yan Ming's identity, especially his relationship with Lu Xiaofeng, which alleviated a lot of hostility, but he was still very cold on the surface.
As he walked outside, he sighed.
Just now, Bai Hongjian and Jin Jiuling barely aroused some interest in him, but now after the incident, the loneliness came back like a tide, flooding into his heart.
"Do you know where there are swordsman masters?"
Ximen Chuixue felt slightly upset, turned her head and asked Yan Ming.
"A swordsman?"
Yan Ming thought for a while, besides Ximen Chuixue in the world today, isn't it Ye Gucheng?
I had heard of Xie Xiaofeng, Yan Shisan and others before, but that was earlier, decades ago.
Now Xie Xiaofeng has sealed his sword and retired to seclusion, and his whereabouts are unknown. Yan Shisan has probably died long ago, and the Thirteen Deadly Swords have naturally been completely lost.
But it's a pity to think about it. If Ximen Chuixue and them could have been born in the same era, it would probably be lively.
As for swordsman masters from other worlds, such as Dugu Qiubai in the world of divine eagles, Yan Ming has never heard of them in this world, and even if they exist, they are nowhere to be found.
Seeing that Yan Ming thought for a moment but failed to provide him with an answer, Ximen Chuixue was not too surprised and instead sighed deeply.
Immediately afterwards, Ximen Chuixue looked towards the south.
"If it really doesn't work, I have no choice but to go find him."
Ximen Chuixue's voice was very low, as if he was talking to himself.
But after Yan Ming heard it, he knew in his heart that the person Ximen Chuixue was talking about must be Ye Gucheng.
It seems that Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng have never met before. Counting the time, it will be a long time before the two of them want to duel.
"I go first."
Ximen Chuixue seemed to have lost interest, casually said a word, and drifted away.
Ximen Chuixue was not famous for his Qinggong skills, but when he started to move, he was so fast that he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
As Ximen Chuixue disappeared, Yan Ming immediately felt that the vague and sharp sword spirit around him had completely disappeared. He himself felt much more relaxed and couldn't help but let out a breath.
Although this trip did not achieve the expected goal and caused trouble for Jin Jiuling, the harvest was rich enough for me.
Yan Ming turned around and bowed to Zhuofeng's former master before leaving.
After activating Qinggong and walking for a certain distance, when I reached a deserted place, I opened my luggage and started taking inventory...
After a while, Yan Ming finally returned to Qixia Town.
In fact, if you count the time, Yan Ming left not long ago.
But maybe it's because I'm used to staying in Qixia Town, and it feels like I've been apart for a long time.
After I came back, I even felt familiar but a little strange.
Qixia Town is now becoming more and more prosperous. Far away from the town, people are coming and going, traffic is busy, and the roads are dotted with people doing small businesses.
Yan Ming saw the banners of several escort agencies along the way. They all obviously knew that the security in Qixia Town was good, and more and more people used this place as their permanent residence.
From the looks of it, everything was business as usual, and there were no surprises during the few days I left.
Yan Ming was completely relieved.
He wore casual clothes and used some of the techniques Sikong Zhaixing taught him to disguise himself, so no one could tell his identity along the way.
Soon, we walked into Qixia Town.
During this period of time, due to prosperity, the scale of Qixia Town slowly expanded outwards. The main street was wider than before, and several more shops were opened along the way. There were various businesses, but there were no new inns.
Yan Ming was walking along, enjoying the sense of intimacy again, when he suddenly saw a figure walking across from him.
Very familiar, it's exactly me.
To be precise, it is the disguised version of myself, Ling Tengyun after the disguise.
Wearing official uniform, carrying a sword at his waist, and walking very fast.
But it looked like he was a little panicked and avoiding something.
"Um?"
Yan Ming looked back and understood.
Immediately behind him was a great monk, who was talking in a long-winded way.
Yan Ming is also very familiar with him. He is the monk from Shaolin Temple.
Ouch!
Yan Ming slapped his forehead. He had too many things to do, one after another, and he almost forgot about them!
Monk Kongxing has not left the Qixia Suppression these days.
I saw the disguised version of myself with a sad face, speeding up my pace to get away from Monk Kongxing, and looking around.
"Hey, Donor Yan, aren't you busy now? Shouldn't you discuss martial arts with the poor monk? Hey, Donor Yan, why are you leaving again? Didn't you promise the poor monk before..."
As one of the four great monks of Shaolin Temple, Kong Xing was not weak on his feet and quickly caught up with Ling Tengyun.
Ling Tengyun was really annoyed by his harassment, so he happened to walk nearby. When he looked up and saw the Yihong Building next to him, he walked over as if he had seen a savior.
"Hey, Mr. Yan, I miss our food at Yihonglou again today. Come in, come in!"
As soon as Ling Tengyun entered the door, Sai Diaochan grabbed his arm and pulled him inside. At the same time, he deliberately raised his voice and shouted, as if he wanted to be heard by the Tongfu Inn opposite.
Yan Ming was a little surprised one second as to why Ling Tengyun wanted to run to Yihong Building, but the next second he understood.
Monk Kongxing wanted to follow him, but before he could cross the threshold, he was stopped by Xiao Cui.
"Wait a minute, great monk, do you have money? If you don't have money, you can't enter our door."
Xiao Cui raised her chin and said.
Kongxing hurriedly touched his body and found a few pieces of silver. That was all he had with him.
Although Kongxing was not short of money, he did not have the habit of taking money with him when he went out. Originally, a high monk like him was always supported by others no matter where he went, and there were very few places to spend money.
Besides, as a monk, I don’t have much obsession with money.
"That's not possible. The money you have is not enough to order one of our main dishes. Let's eat at Tongfu Inn opposite."
"this……"
Emptiness is difficult.
"The poor monk wants to communicate with Yan Captou..."
"I don't care. Our Yihong Building is a place where we spend money, and we can't let you in casually."
Xiao Cui said proudly.
Kongxing really had no choice but to look at him with regret, and he didn't dare to break in when faced with such a tricky female donor as Xiao Cui.
Yan Ming almost laughed when he saw this scene.
After all, Kongxing is a majestic master-level master, but he was actually caught by Xiaocui.
No wonder Ling Tengyun wanted to hide in Yihong Building, that is, only Yihong Building dared to speak like this. If it were the Tongfu Inn opposite, they would not chase people away like this.
At this moment, Ling Tengyun was already sitting on the second floor.
His original intention was to hide from Monk Kongyata, but he had no choice. The great monk was too nagging and insisted on pestering him to learn and exchange Dragon Claw Techniques with him.
How could Ling Tengyun know the Dragon Claw Kung Fu? He was just a disguised person, but he couldn't give up his job yet. He had to insist on appearing in the Seven Heroes Town, and he absolutely couldn't be discovered by others that he was fake.
I have no choice but to avoid the other party as much as possible, and Yihong Building is the best choice.
But as soon as I sat down, before the stool was heated, exquisite dishes were already being served on the table like water.
"this……"
Ling Tengyun looked at Sai Diaochan beside him.
"Shopkeeper Sai, I didn't order these dishes."
"I know, these are our specialty dishes at Yihong Restaurant. Please help us try them, Yan Capantou."
After Sai Diaochan finished speaking, she sat down next to Ling Tengyun without any courtesy.
Not only did he act very enthusiastic, but he also leaned closer to him, leaning towards Ling Tengyun slightly, acting very close to him.
"Yan Captou, it's rare that you are willing to come to Yihong Building during this period of time. We have treated you well. You can try this."
Sai Diaochan pretended to pick up food for Ling Tengyun.
"What the hell, Shopkeeper Sai, I don't have so much money with me to settle the bill."
"Yan Captou, what are you talking about? You have worked hard and worked hard for our town. We can still charge you for just a few dishes. It is Yihonglou's honor to entertain you."
Sai Diaochan behaved more intimately.
Ling Tengyun knew as soon as he saw her like this that Sai Diaochan was interested in Yan Ming.
After all, Ling Tengyun was at home before, and he was also a well-known handsome young man from all over the country. He was a true idol. The biggest headache every day when he went out was being chased and intercepted by his fans. He was very familiar with this expression.
I originally thought it would be better if I changed my appearance to another person in Qixia Town, but it turns out that Yan Captou is also quite popular.
"Shopkeeper Sai, I still have something to do, that..."
Ling Tengyun found an opportunity and left.
Afraid of encountering emptiness, I didn't dare to leave from the front and went straight out from the back.
After wandering around to a deserted place, I took a deep breath and felt very tired for a while.
It had only been a few days and he was already tired.
Not only did he have to deal with Kongxing, Sai Diaochan and other characters who were acquainted with Yanming, but he still couldn't show any flaws, but more importantly, being the head catcher in Qixia Town was not as easy as he thought.
Originally, Ling Tengyun thought that the head catcher in Qixia Town was just patrolling the streets to catch a thief. However, in this small Qixia Town, he could patrol several times with just a little force of his feet.
Isn't it the reason why Yan Ming became famous because he captured several famous bandits?
But he didn't expect that now there are no big things in Qixia Town, but small things are very complicated. He often has to help the residents of Qixia Town deal with some miscellaneous trivial matters. After a long time, it takes a lot of patience.
The Ling family is a well-known arresting family, and they usually deal with major and important cases. They have never been exposed to such trivial matters.
This gave Ling Tengyun a different feeling after being tired.
He realized Yan Ming's popularity in Qixia Town and the recognition of those people.
In the past, Ling Tengyun only cared about the approval of the court and his superiors, and had never considered such a down-to-earth bottom-up perspective.
On the other hand, he also felt that the reason why Yan Ming has such good popularity in Qixia Town is not only because of the great achievements he has made, but also because of the trivial daily life he has established and interacted with the people of Qixia Town.
I heard from the people here that not only Capt. Yan, but also Capt. Xing, who was the previous one, was also very popular with the people. It seems that this kind of atmosphere in Qixia Town is the same.
This made Ling Tengyun vaguely admire Yan Ming, and asked himself that he couldn't do this.
Just after taking a few breaths, a voice appeared from behind Ling Tengyun.
"Thank you for your hard work, Capt. Ling."
"ah!"
Ling Tengyun was shocked. Someone touched his behind so inexplicably, and he didn't notice it at all!
But his body tensed up suddenly and relaxed immediately.
Because this is the sound of Yan Ming.
"Yan Captou, you are back!"
Ling Tengyun turned around and was pleasantly surprised when he saw Yan Ming taking off his disguise.
This is not because of how good his relationship with Yan Ming is, but because Yan Ming is back and the burden on him is finally relieved.
Not long after, Ling Tengyun brought Yan Ming, Tie Shou and Sikong Zhaixing to meet.
After hearing Yan Ming say that everything went smoothly, Tie Shou finally felt relieved.
Soon, Ling Tengyun also took off his disguise and returned to his original appearance.
After a period of time, Yan Ming put on his official uniform and finally appeared in Qixia Town openly and honestly as a head catcher.
"Yan Captou is good..."
Yan Ming appeared, and people kept saying hello to him.
But there were also some people who looked suspicious, always feeling that Yan Baotou was a little different from before, but they couldn't tell what was different.
Walking along the main street, I passed by a small building on the side of the street.
"Mmm, it smells so good!"
Yan Ming took a deep breath, feeling the refreshing fragrance making her feel relaxed and happy.
He raised his head and looked to the side, where the flowers on the second floor were being watered.
This small building was rented by Yan Ming from Wei Yuanwai and arranged for Huamanlou, but now it has completely changed.
It is no longer as bare as before, but is full of flowers, red and green, which is really beautiful.
The aroma spreads far and wide, making the streets nearby seem to be on a higher level.
"Yan Captou, you're back! Do you want to come up and sit down?"
Huamanlou greeted cordially.
Although they couldn't see it, Huamanlou spotted Yanming as soon as he appeared.
Yan Ming was surprised at first, but then he and Hua Manlou chuckled at the same time.
It seems that Ling Tengyun's disguise can hide it from others, but it cannot hide it from Hua Manlou, who has a keen sense of smell.
It’s just that Hua Manlou never exposed each other before.
Yan Ming was not polite and went directly upstairs, looking at the many flowers arranged in Huamanlou.
The aroma also attracts many butterflies and bees.
Yan Ming and Hua Man Lou chatted for a while, and then their eyes fell on the flowers.
Among the bees attracted, some were small in size, but extremely delicate and sensitive.
It's those swarms of jade bees that I own.
Because the population of Jade Bees was relatively small before, Yanming had not used them since they were placed outside the town, allowing them to develop slowly.
Now that the Jade Bees have all flown here, the size of the group is probably much larger than before.
"This kind of bee is very smart, and its sting contains special poison. It seems to be artificially bred."
