The man dressed as a scholar looked at Wu Sheng after hearing this.

"Please wait."

He left the room and came back about half an hour later.

"Sir, please give us one more day. We need to confirm the accuracy of the news. I'm sorry." This man's attitude was excellent.

"Okay, then I'll wait."

After leaving that place, Wu Sheng found a place to live in Kecheng. Then he went to a restaurant and ordered a table of food. He had been traveling along the river in the past few days and didn't have much decent food, so he went out to

I ordered something good, including fish, meat and vegetables.

The shopkeeper was initially worried that he would not be able to pay for the meal, but after seeing him throwing away the broken silver, his attitude immediately changed and he greeted him with a smile.

There was only one person on the table, and he was enjoying the food.

Bang, someone knocked on the table in the private room next door, making a loud sound.

"Why did the agreed price change again?!" a man's voice said.

"Hey, now that my cultivation level is higher, the price will naturally increase accordingly." Another man's voice said.

"This voice sounds so familiar!" Although there is a wall between them, with Wu Sheng's current cultivation level, as long as he wants to listen, this wall is just a decoration, not to mention the original sound insulation effect is not very good.

Ye Zhiqiu?

"How do I know if your cultivation level is high? You must be honest when doing business."

"You have the nerve to be honest with me. Last time you asked me to deal with a person, saying that his whole family was bullies who bullied men and women and did all kinds of evil. I went to inquire and found out that he is a kind man who is willing to do good and has a radius of more than ten meters.

Everyone in the village said how good he was, and I almost killed a good man. I came here this time purely for the sake of money. If you don't want to, go find someone else. My time is precious. Goodbye!"

"Hey, don't, don't, don't, okay, let's pay according to the price you said, and I will make another deal."

"That's pretty much it. Tell me, is there anything else?"

A voice whispered.

Wu Sheng listened intently.

"In seven days, there will be tribute coming to Beijing passing through Kecheng. I want you to rob it!"

"Damn you, you are not so courageous. You dare to rob the imperial court's tribute. Do you know that there will be soldiers escorting you and monks escorting you? Do you want me to die? Goodbye, no,

No goodbye!" There was a clatter and the sound of a stool moving.

"Hey, hey, I'll give you eight thousand taels."

"Eight thousand taels? Is my life worth just eight thousand taels?"

"Ten thousand taels, not only you, but also other helpers, you are responsible for dealing with those monks."

"Hu Wansan, you have found the wrong person. I am a law-abiding and good citizen. I will not do this kind of thing. The food here tastes pretty good. You can eat it yourself!"

"Ye Zhiqiu, you still have the nerve to say you are a good citizen, but you have committed murder more than once!"

"Hey, don't talk nonsense. What evidence do you have? Don't rant here. I'll sue you for slander!"

Creaking, the sound of the door opening.

"I don't even think about this kind of thing, I really don't know how to live or die."

"Brother Ye?"

"Um?!"

The man carrying a big sword stopped when he heard this and turned his head to look at the private room aside.

"That's right, I'm calling you again, please come in and talk."

"Who is it?" Ye Zhiqiu shouted towards the private room.

With a creak, the door of the private room opened. Ye Zhiqiu looked inside and saw only one person eating and drinking, and the table was full of plates and bowls.

"Did you just call me?"

"Yes, Brother Ye, long time no see." Wu Sheng put down his chopsticks and looked up at him with a smile.

"Who are you?" Ye Zhiqiu stared at Wu Sheng carefully.

"We met in Kuaiji that night."

"Wang Sheng?!"

"it's me!"

"Oh, I didn't expect to see you here, what a fate!" Ye Zhiqiu entered the room with a smile, two dimples on his face, and closed the door of the room.

“Wow, it’s so rich!”

"Order a few more dishes and let's eat some together?"

"Okay, here's another bottle of wine."

Wu Sheng called the waiter over, ordered a few dishes and a bottle of wine. The two of them chatted while eating.

"Brother Wang heard what I just said in the next room?" Ye Zhiqiu drank a glass of wine, ate a few bites of food and looked up at Wu Sheng.

"I heard, Brother Ye is a person who does great things!?"

"Hey, I refused righteously. How could I do such a thing? Even if I did, I wouldn't go with such an idiot." Ye Zhiqiu smiled.

"However, this is a big deal for me. I wonder if Brother Wang is interested in it?"

"Tell me and listen." Wu Sheng put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked up at him.

"It doesn't work here, the walls have ears." Ye Zhiqiu looked around and then pointed to the side.

"Then let's eat first, and we can talk in detail later in a different place."

Half an hour later, the two people arrived at the riverside outside Kecheng.

The river is flowing endlessly, but no one comes close to it because of the recent disturbance of river monsters.

"Last time we said goodbye at Kuaiji Changsheng Temple, Brother Wang deliberately avoided me, but why did he take the initiative to call me today?" Ye Zhiqiu held a piece of dead grass in his mouth.

"I have something to ask for."

"Xiangqiu, what's the matter with me?" Ye Zhiqiu was very surprised after hearing this.

"As long as I can do it, I will try my best to help. The price is negotiable."

"I want to learn Brother Ye's body-fixing technique. I wonder if Brother Ye can teach me?"

"Ah?!" Ye Zhiqiu was stunned after hearing this, obviously not expecting Wu Sheng to make such a request.

"Let me think about it." Ye Zhiqiu lowered his head and stared at the river in front of him and thought for a while.

"I can teach you, but I also have a request."

"Speaking."

"Cooperate with me and we can make a big deal."

"What deal?"

"In seven days, tribute from the imperial court will pass through this place. You and I will cooperate and rob the tribute."

"Robbing tributes? Is this what Brother Ye calls a big deal? Just now at the restaurant, I heard Brother Ye himself say that he would not rob tributes. Why did he change his mind now?"

"At this moment, at that moment, the man surnamed Hu and his group of subordinates are just a bunch of pigs. Wolves don't associate with pigs. If you act with them, something will definitely happen. Brother Wang, you are different. Your Taoism is profound. We

Wasn’t it great to cooperate last time?”

"I wonder what's in that tribute?" Wu Sheng did not refuse immediately.

"There are two things that are clearly known so far, the Nine Spirit Pill and the Water-avoiding Pearl. The Nine Spirit Pill is made from nine kinds of spiritual grass. If ordinary people eat it, it can cure all kinds of diseases and prolong life. If monks eat it, it can be used for many years.

Years of hard training. As for water beads, if you wear them on your body, you can enter the water like a fish, and you can go to all the rivers and lakes in the world."

As soon as he heard about this kind of treasure, Wu Sheng became interested. This was just the right time for him to go to the Qiantang River to look for the "Dragon Subduing Stake". Although he had been practicing in the water for the past few days and had made considerable progress, after all, it was still time.
