When Mrs. Wu heard Qiao Xianyong's words, she couldn't help but raise her head and look at Granny Zhang, her face suddenly changed, and she couldn't help but said, "Yong'er, although our family is not a martial artist, it has nothing to do with this matter, but my mother
I'm still curious and want to ask what your master is looking for after spending a lot of effort and effort. On the other hand, mother is also afraid that you will be in danger. If your master wants to find this thing, he won't have to kill people or set fire to get it.
?”
Qiao Xianyong smiled lightly and said, "Mother, Master did reveal some news, saying that this thing is crucial to the Central Plains martial arts world and may subvert the world structure of the past decades or even hundreds of years. But Master also said that this
The matter is of crucial importance, and he hasn't fully figured it out yet. When he and I parted ways in Daishan a few months ago, he said that he would continue to find out more about it. Now that he has asked me to meet in the capital, I think he already has some clues about the matter."
As Qiao Xianyong spoke, his tone became serious again, and he sighed, "Mother, I can never repay the kindness that Master has given me in raising me. As long as what I do is not against morality, I will never do anything Master wants me to do."
It’s dangerous, so I have to step forward!”
Mrs. Wu nodded and said, "Mom is just worried about you and has nothing else to say. Yong'er, today seems to be the 25th. When you go to Nancheng, when you see your master, you must invite him back to meet and get to know mom.
ah!"

Qiao Xianyong shook his head and said, "Mother, since Master can ask someone to deliver a letter to me, it means that he must have known that I live in this house. Why don't you come and get to know me? I think Master doesn't want to be ignored all the time.
Think of it as a benefactor or something. Mother, I think Master is indifferent by nature. Since he doesn’t want to come, we shouldn’t force him.”
Mrs. Wu pondered for a moment and then said, "Yong'er, you'd better meet your master today and talk to him about your mother's wishes. If he insists on refusing to meet, he can only let Daxia Wei go. That's good.
?”
Qiao Xianyong bowed and said, "It's great that Mom understands."
Mrs. Wu added, "There is still more than an hour before noon. I think you should hurry up and get ready and set off. Otherwise, you will waste time and let Master wait."
When Qiao Xianyong saw Mrs. Wu urging him to leave, he thought she wanted to arrange something secretly, so he stopped asking. He just smiled and nodded, and suddenly said, "Mother, I didn't ask mother for permission, so I took two little babies into my house."
Let them help Qi'er with chores in the house. I wonder what Mother would like?"
Regarding Zhu'er and Dou'er, Mrs. Wu had known about it for a long time, but at this time she pretended not to know anything and said with a smile, "You can make the decision for such a small matter, don't ask me. The rules in the house are...
Let Qier teach more. If there are not enough people, just ask Granny Zhang to come back to your place to serve you."
Qiao Xianyong glanced at Granny Zhang's gloomy face, shook his head quickly, and said, "That's enough, that's enough. Mother, I'll leave first." After saying that, Qiao Xianyong exited the room, but he seemed to still be able to feel Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wu behind him.
Mrs. Zhang’s dagger-like gaze.
Qiao Xianyong went back to his room and changed into the gown he had gone out with. He told Qi'er and Dou'er a few insignificant words, and then left the Wu Mansion as if nothing had happened. He asked the boy at the door to take out a very ordinary yellow horse from the stable.
He walked hurriedly towards the Nancheng Market. This market was where Liu Debao took him the first day, so he didn't hesitate about the route.
When the yellow horse turned onto the main road, there were not many pedestrians on the road. Qiao Xianyong thought about it in his mind, pretending to be inadvertent, and suddenly turned around to take a look. Sure enough, as he expected, there were three black horses.
were following behind him dozens of meters away. The rider above did wear a blue hat, which completely covered his face. Seeing Qiao Xianyong suddenly stop his horse, those few people also whistled in panic.
The horses stopped.
Qiao Xianyong secretly laughed in his heart, then dismounted, pulled the reins and went to a stall on the side of the road where hot candied chestnuts were being stir-fried. The man was tumbling over the shovel, with beads of sweat on his face, when he saw Qiao Xianyong approaching.
He put down the thing in his hand and greeted with a smile, "Sir, would you like some chestnuts?"

Qiao Xianyong calmly picked up a few chestnuts that had been placed in the dustpan and were waiting to cool down. He peeled three of them in a hurry, tasted them slowly, then took out a bunch of copper coins from his sleeve and said to the waiter.
, "Come and weigh me two pounds."
The clerk quickly took out a copper scale, weighed chestnuts, packaged chestnuts, and collected and changed money. It went very smoothly. Qiao Xianyong picked up a package of chestnuts handed to him by the clerk, and looked back pretending not to care. Sure enough,
The three men on black horses stopped where they were, pulling on the horse's bridle impatiently, and one of them shook his leg impatiently.
Qiao Xianyong laughed in his heart and slowly got on the yellow horse again.
Along the way, Qiao Xianyong's hands and mouth were neither idle. In addition to the hot candied chestnuts, he also bought a pack of spiced melon seeds, a basket of southern oranges, two candied figures, and a grasshopper cage.
, I even bought some brushes, inkstones, and paper. When I looked back occasionally, I saw that the men in black had already lifted up their bamboo hats, looking left and right impatiently, whispering something to each other.
Qiao Xianyong had a great time shopping, and when he saw that the sun was almost hanging directly above his head, he hurriedly rushed to the Nancheng Market. The Nancheng Market was just like when Liu Debao came a few days ago, it was crowded with all kinds of people.
, because it was already approaching noon, and the aroma of various snacks wafted out. Qiao Xianyong's mouth was full of things along the way, and he didn't feel hungry at this time. He still tied the yellow horse to the tether outside the market.
On the horse stone, he slowly squeezed into the crowd.
After walking for a while, Qiao Xianyong saw that what seemed to be an open space in front of him was surrounded by people from three circles inside and three outside. People kept shouting "Okay!" "Wonderful!" So Qiao Xianyong also said to
He squeezed in from the middle of the crowd. He was tall and squeezed into the front row without much effort. After Qiao Xianyong stood still, he glanced around with his peripheral vision and saw those men in black scattered around him, probably because they were always in contact with others.
There was a collision, so he took off his hat. Qiao Xianyong took a closer look and saw that the man in black standing farthest from him was Liu Debao. He was probably afraid that Qiao Xianyong would find him, but he kept his head low, and
His usually upbeat and cheerful demeanor was like a completely different person.
Qiao Xianyong smiled disdainfully, and then looked at the place surrounded by many people. Who was it? On the ground in the middle, there was a colorful felt, and a Taoist priest with a feather fan and silk scarf was sitting on it.
He is extremely thin, with high cheekbones on both sides, but sallow eye circles. He wears a large blue robe, with empty sleeves and robe, only showing his skinny chicken claw-like wrists and fingers.
The Taoist priest didn't know what he was chewing in his mouth. After chewing for a while, he spit out a green-green thing that looked like the core of a melon. However, he spit it out with great force, and the core immediately popped out.
It entered the soft soil in front of him, and a small circle of sand and dust stirred up. Then the Taoist priest closed his eyes and muttered something. Even though Qiao Xianyong stood so close, he couldn't hear clearly what he was saying.
What rhetoric.
Hearing people around him keep saying "Hey", "Look, look!" "Yes! Yes!", Qiao Xianyong looked in the direction of the finger of the person next to him, and saw that the Taoist priest had just spit out the core.
A green bud sprouted out of nowhere. The bud grew taller and crookedly as the Taoist priest murmured. It didn't take long for it to grow to more than two inches tall. People around him were making a lot of noise.
The sound became louder and louder, and even Qiao Xianyong couldn't help but widen his eyes, but the Taoist priest suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were filled with light, and he said, "Hey!" I saw the two-inch-high emerald green seedling growing again.
In an instant, it shrank back into the ground and disappeared.
The Taoist priest looked at the crowd around him, but his eyes were fixed on Qiao Xianyong for a while, looking him up and down. At this time, he suddenly heard someone in the crowd shouting, "What a seasoned Taoist! He really has some skills!" "Here comes another one.
! One more!" Some people threw out a two-coin coin one after another, and it fell messily on the dirt beside the Taoist priest.

When the Taoist priest heard the crowd shouting excitedly, he smiled slightly without opening his mouth to speak. Then he took out a handful of soybeans from his arms, weighed them back and forth, then clasped his hands together, closed his eyes again, and muttered some words in his mouth.
, and then without opening his eyes, he suddenly threw a few soybeans into the crowded crowd. No one expected that the Taoist priest would suddenly do this, but they saw that the Taoist priest's throw was not small, and every soybean was thrown into the crowd.
They were thrown impartially into the crowd, and not a single one fell on the open space.
Suddenly, I saw "Ouch, ouch", "Why the hell are you holding me?", "Let me go, let me go", "It hurts so much, hey, can't you please be gentle?" came from the crowd.
Voice. Mr. Qiao couldn't help but look back in doubt, and saw seven or eight people dressed exactly the same standing up from every corner of the crowd at almost the same time. Everyone was dressed exactly the same as the Taoist priest, but they just looked different. What was strange was that each of them was dressed the same as the Taoist priest.
Each of the Taoist priests was holding or holding someone in their hands. Almost at the same time, these Taoist priests grabbed the man in their hands, suddenly jumped up, flew over the heads of everyone, and landed lightly on the Taoist priest's head in the open space.
All around.
The Taoist priest in the open space also stood up and said in an understated tone, "The Taoist would like to thank all the fellow villagers for their support. He performed a little trick, spreading the beans to others. He transformed into several avatars and secretly took out people's money bags among the crowd.
The people who touched the girls’ thighs were caught out, it’s just a little bit of a trick!”
Following the Taoist priest's voice, thunderous cheers suddenly erupted from the crowd, and Qiao Xianyong was dazzled.
