Chapter 5 Qinghe Town(1/2)
Zhang Hongzheng turned around and looked westward in the direction they pointed, and walked dozens of steps against the strong wind. He turned around and looked at him. He found that the hunter and the few people around him were still staring at them, as if he had to see them entering the house in front of him before he felt relieved.
"What's wrong with the people here?"
At this time, he asked in a dull manner.
"have no idea."
Zhang Hongzheng scratched his head. Although he was exploring everywhere, his activity trajectory was basically limited to Nangong Ling.
"I heard that the people in the Tang family leader acted a little differently from those in our Nangong team, but these people have a weird temper. Maybe it was because the casual cultivators who passed by here had had some conflicts with them before." "Yes, such a dilapidated town, even the guards could not be seen. And the door of the Tian family guarding was closed as if they were guarding thieves." Looking west rarely said so many words.
Everything here does look weird, at least it is different from all the villages and towns in the Nangong Township they are used to.
The autumn rain in the strong wind fell down. Zhang Hongzheng and Wang Xi did not say much. They quickly walked to the mansion, raised their hand to grab the door knocker on the black wooden door of the town, knocked three times, waited for a while, and knocked three times again.
After a while, a crack was opened on the side door, and a white-faced and beardless face was poked out.
It looked like a man under thirty years old, with a high nose bridge, hanging eyes and tying his hair.
He looked up and down and frowned: "What are you doing?"
Zhang Hongzheng bowed: "Lucky, we have something important to visit the Lord Tian family who guards Qinghe Town."
"What's up?
Who are you?
Are you going to trade in Xifeng City?”
The white-faced man's wariness seemed to be no less than that hunter.
"Why are all new faces?
Lord Tian has something to do in the past two days." "We are a passenger from Nangong Leader. When we passed by Guidi, we suddenly encountered some extremely important things. We felt it necessary to report them to Lord Tian."
The man was stunned at first, then sneered: "Traveler?
Are you a casual cultivator who runs private goods?
Want to rely on alarmist words to cheat food and drink?
Go east further east, turn the street and there is an empty horse shed, go there to rest! Remember, don’t cause trouble, the rules of our Tang family are not as relaxed as those of Nangong.”
The door will be closed after you say something.
Zhang Hongzheng raised his hand to grab the door. The man yelled and exerted force again, but felt that the door was as unmoved as a stone carving.
The man's eyes glared and he was about to attack immediately.
"We do have something to see Lord Tian's family."
Zhang Hongzheng quickly lowered his voice.
"We accidentally found a spirit stone mine nearby that had not been mined, but was occupied by a random cultivator."
"What?
Spirit stone mine?
real?"
The man's eyes widened several times in an instant, and he immediately didn't know where he was angry just now.
“It’s true.”
Zhang Hongzheng took out another spirit stone and put it in the man's hand, and then took out his talisman iron plate.
"We dare not hide this matter, and were chased by the demon, so we came to report to the Lord Tian family.
This is my amulet iron plate.”
The man took Zhang Hongzheng's iron card and looked at it. This was something that proved the identity of a casual cultivator. It was covered with the seal of the Lord of Tanning City. In addition to Zhang Hongzheng's height and age records, there was also an avatar engraved on it.
This is specially made by the ghost immortals of the Nangong family. It is extremely difficult to imitate. The wandering cultivators must hold it, otherwise they may be captured, interrogated and imprisoned by the guards.
This thing is not easy to make, and it costs ten spirit stones just to go to the city lord's mansion to make it. However, with this thing, the identity is guaranteed by the Nangong family.
While looking at the iron plate, he gently shook his wrist and put the spirit stone into his bag. The man's face relaxed, and finally opened the door, revealing his whole body. He became much more kind and kind, and said, "Next Zhouqing, the guardian of Qinghe Town, Lord Tian Ji, is intimate.
It turned out that it was such an important news. It was a rude thing. I would like to ask two of you, oh, three righteous men came in, and I will report to Lord Tian immediately."
Zhang Hongzheng curled his lips secretly.
When dealing with people, you can use spirit stones to open the road. This is common everywhere. However, this person is still in vain and is in charge of a town guard. He actually bought a piece of spirit stone without any effort. It seems that this town is really poor.
The spirit stone mine was not big at all. They had already gained a lot of benefits and had no idea of secretly occupying it.
There is no spirit stone mine in this world that belongs to casual cultivators. Every land has its own master, so are the spirit stones under the land.
If a casual cultivator can excavate a new spirit stone mine, he will definitely be rewarded by the aristocratic family. However, if he dares to secretly hide it and want to make a fortune in a quiet voice, he will steal money from the aristocratic family's pocket. Even the always generous Nangong Ling will never tolerate this.
The mining traces in the spirit stone mine cannot be hidden from humans, but there is an old monster who drinks human blood that can take the blame. Zhang Hongzheng and the others honestly dug up hundreds of them and hid them elsewhere, and then came over to tell the Tian family that they could get a reward openly, and secondly, it is indeed necessary to use the Tian family to deal with the strange old man who didn't know where he escaped.
Just as he was about to enter the door with Zhou Qing, Zhang Hongzheng and Wang Xi suddenly heard a vague noise from behind.
They turned around and saw that it was sent by the men led by hunters under the big banyan tree.
First, a ragged black and thin woman ran out of the alley and said something to the men. Then the men became noisy, and the hunters suddenly stood up and looked at them.
The wind was getting heavier and the soybean-sized raindrops began to smash downwards. The hunter led the five people around him to strode over here.
While walking, he raised his hand and pointed to this side, as if he was shouting loudly.
But even Zhang Hongzheng's ears could not be heard clearly in the sound of wind and rain.
"Come on, please come inside."
Zhou Qing in front was urging him.
The fat cat emerged from behind Zhang Hongzheng and slipped in first.
Zhou Qing said hee and looked at Zhang Hongzheng. Zhang Hongzheng nodded and indicated that this was their cat.
"By the way, are they doing something?"
Zhang Hong was pointing at the hunters chasing behind him.
"Several unlucky people were very opposed to outsiders because they were killed by wandering cultivators.
I'll send them away."
Zhou Qing said as he called a guard in a shabby uniform guarding the door, pointing to the depths of the house.
"Take them to the guest room and don't walk around."
The guard agreed weakly and immediately led Zhang Hongzheng and looked west around the screen wall and walked backwards.
After walking more than a dozen steps, Zhang Hong vaguely heard the sound of smashing the door and roaring in the rising storm.
"Zhou Qing, open the door~! These casual cultivators are coming to harm others again~!"
"Xue Laosan, you're desperate, dare to smash the adult's door?"
"Zhou Qing, listen to me, don't bewitched by those [Biquge www.biqugeso.vip] some cultivators." Just as they were about to listen carefully, they suddenly sighed and Lu Ning, who was hugged by Xiwang, moaned and woke up.
"Brother Lu~!"
Looking west is overjoyed.
“Have you arrived in town?”
Lu Ning twisted his neck with difficulty and looked left and right.
"We are here, we are informing Lord Tian family."
"That's good to let me go."
Lu Ning struggled to come down to the ground, looking around and supporting him, Lu Ning clasped his fists at Zhang Hongzheng again.
"Xiao Zhang has worked hard all the way."
"Brother Lu, you have to be polite."
Zhang Hongzheng smiled and woke up from his trance.
For some reason, since he walked into this big mansion, he felt inappropriate in his heart, and it seemed that something extremely important had been ignored.
In other words, I actually felt this strange feeling since I entered this town, but the feeling became more and more intense in this Tian family mansion. He tried hard to think about it, but the sound of wind and rain, the sound of smashing the door outside, and Lu Ning's awakening were all intertwined, leaving him with no time to spare in his head.
Once the thunder in the sky begins, it will stop after sound.
Before Zhang Hongzheng could figure out the thoughts in his mind, the guard who led the way entered a small courtyard and took them into the house in the small courtyard.
The guarding mansions of this kind of town basically include all administrative residences, including the residences of the guardians and guards stationed there, and even the places where guests are arranged to stay are mixed together.
The guard had just left. Zhou Qing, who had left before, walked in with a spirit stone lamp in his hand, and then lit a spirit stone lamp on the table.
Behind him was a middle-aged man holding an umbrella.
He looked like he was about forty years old and had five long beards.
Square face, thick eyebrows, thin eyes.
He wore a crown on his head and a black silk robe. The robe showed the Tang family's emblem with gold thread on the left chest.
