I want to cultivate swordsman

Leaving the county office, Xu Zhiqiu thought about the entrustment of the county magistrate in his heart. To be honest, he was a little bit moved. After all, Qianjing is the heart of the imperial capital and the most prosperous and powerful royal city in the entire territory. It can be said that he has seen half of it when he gets there. This world is a place that many young people yearn for.

This time, even if the county lord did not mention it, Xu Zhiqiu would also go to Qianjing to see the world in the future, it was only a matter of time.

Moreover, the conditions given by the county venerable are quite attractive, assuring that all the expenses of this trip will be borne by the county. This is very attractive to Xu Zhiqiu who has no money. Ten taels of silver to go to Ganjing is estimated to be almost the same when you get to the place. A few dozen taels of silver can live a lifetime in Lin'an County, but it is a little pitiful to go to Ganjing.

As for the potential danger along the way, Xu Zhiqiu didn't take it seriously. If he hadn't considered his second uncle and aunt Xu Zhiqiu, he would have agreed on the spot, but this matter needs to be discussed with his family. It took two months, so he gave the county official an answer.

"Gan Jing, I heard from my seniors before that it is a place of crouching tigers, hidden dragons, even Yuanying Daxiu can see a few statues, it would be a pity not to go and see it this time, and I should go out See the world."

"It's just that the matter in Hu's residence has not yet been settled, and the antique dealer hidden in the county town has not yet been found."

Thinking of these two incidents, Xu Zhiqiu also felt a little pity. At the beginning, he planned to let the monks of Tianwei Pavilion solve the troubles in Hu's house, and by the way, find out the antique dealer who sold ghosts. Sit next to the fisherman's profit and let the amount in the bronze mirror increase a little more, but now it seems that it won't work.

The eldest lady is dead, but the monster evil cultivator related to the eldest lady can't be solved for the time being, and the antique dealer hasn't found Ying yet, everything is not going well.

Thinking about Xu Zhiqiu going to an inn on the way, Lu Ningshuang opened the door when he saw him coming, and Chen Daofan had already woken up from his lethargy at this time, such a serious injury would have to be said less for an ordinary person It will take half a year to recover, but Chen Daofan, who is a strong foundation builder, is already like a normal person, but his face is still pale.

Chen Daofan said, "Why is Brother Xu here?"

Xu Zhiqiu came here to ask the owner of the wine shop what to do about the matter, and by the way, he took out the round jade tablet, which was taken from the lady, a treasure that can shield evil spirits.

Chen Daofan took the jade card and looked at it carefully, and then said: "Treasures that can hide the evil spirit are also rare. This thing looks ordinary, but it is actually extraordinary. It should be a treasure that can only be refined by a strong golden core. As for the ancient characters protruding from the jade card It looks familiar, but I just can’t remember it for a while.”

Lu Ningshuang took a look at the jade card and said, "This is not the official character of Qianyuan, it should be an ancient character from some years ago. I remember that there are related books in the sect, so I can compare it when I go back."

When Xu Zhiqiu saw Lu Ningshuang looking over, he gave the jade token to the two of them directly. This thing can only shield the evil spirit, and it has little effect on the monks, so he doesn't feel bad at all, and he still has a jade token on his body. There are two cards in total.

Seeing that there was no conclusion about the jade card, Xu Zhiqiu asked about the wine shop owner again.Chen Daofan has already learned what happened from Lu Ningshuang, he frowned and said: "This matter is very troublesome, I didn't expect that the eldest lady in the Hu's mansion would still collude with the evil cultivator, then the evil cultivator's strength may have been touched Jindan stage, and there is a ghost banner in hand, it is not something we can deal with at all."

Speaking of this, Chen Daofan sighed: "I can only go back and report this matter to the higher authorities. I thought that the last experience would be a success, so that I would be rewarded by the head of the sect when I returned to the sect. I never thought that I would be defeated by this In a small county town, alas..., I really don’t know how to explain to the master.”

Lu Ningshuang saw that her senior brother was a little disappointed, and persuaded her: "The success or failure of this matter has nothing to do with the senior brother. The evil cultivator is powerful and superior, even if it is someone else, he will eventually lose."

Chen Daofan really wanted to say that he was a little discouraged because he was defeated by the doctor. After all, he didn't participate in the evil cultivation, but he couldn't say it if it was true, so he didn't say anything more.

Xu Zhiqiu said: "Brother Chen is going to return to Tianmingzong this time?"

Chen Daofan nodded: "The training time is over. After returning to Fucheng to report the affairs here to Tianwei Pavilion, I should go back to the sect."

As a former disciple of the Qingyang Sect, Xu Zhiqiu knew the agreement between the various sects and the Qianyuan royal family. All the disciples who established the foundation had to go to Tianwei Pavilion for a year of experience. It seems that Chen Daofan's experience has expired, and he immediately thought of Hong Regarding the matter of Xie Shu, he asked tentatively: "Brother Chen, there is something I don't know whether to ask or not."

Chen Daofan said: "What's the matter, it's okay to speak up."

Xu Zhiqiu said: "Can the red scorpion branches of Tianmingzong be sold outside?"

"Red scorpion tree?" Chen Daofan was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Xu Zhiqiu to ask this.

He looked at Xu Zhiqiu with some doubts, and then said: "Brother Xu, why do you ask, the red scorpion tree is planted in Tianmingzong's medicine garden, which is the place managed by Elder Feng, and he often regards the things inside as his treasures , I’m afraid it’s impossible to sell them outside.”

After getting this answer, Xu Zhiqiu felt a little disappointed in his heart, and said, "It's nothing, I just got a prescription recently, and I need to use the branches of the red scorpion tree, so I asked."

Hearing this, Chen Daofan didn't say any more. He knew that the branches and fruits of the red scorpion tree were used as pills, but he still had some doubts in his heart. Although he was puzzled, he didn't ask much.

Xu Zhiqiu saw that Tianmingzong couldn't get what he wanted for a while, so he got up and left. He was thinking about how to find the red scorpion tree along the way, but he didn't have any clue after much deliberation. I really have to go to Ganjing.

Since the red scorpion tree can't be obtained in a short period of time, it is necessary to consider going to the Black Mountain Academy to try its luck and see if it can find a way to drive away the thunder, and the Black Mountain Academy is located in Qianjing City.

On the north side of Wutong Street, there is an inconspicuous small shop at the corner of Santiao Street. The space is only half the size of the other side. There are various wooden utensils in it, which looks a bit messy. Uncle Xu works in this small shop. Not many customers came to the door, and there was only one woman in the store at this time.

When Xu Zhiqiu passed by the door of the shop, he saw that his second uncle was holding a piece of wood and talking with the woman, probably discussing the matter of custom-made utensils, so he sat quietly on a chair beside him without saying a word.
