Chapter 268 Team Gang
Wu Zhongyuan was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the charming woman lying on the street. Seeing that she was still moaning and knowing that she had not fallen to death, he looked away and said to Jiang Nan, "I just arrived this morning."
Jiang Nan nodded and then tilted his head to look at the second child and the old blind man.
The second child recognized Jiang Nan, and when he saw Jiang Nan looking at it, he hurriedly looked at Wu Zhongyuan with eyes asking for help.
Wu Zhongyuan pointed at the second child and said to Jiang Nan, "You know this one," and then pointed at the old blind man, "This is Mr. Wang."
Jiang Nan's eyes had already moved away from the old blind man. Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, he moved his eyes back to look at him again. At this time, there was no word "sir", but there was a similar word, pronounced "ongkeng", which means The wise elder is equivalent to the gentleman of future generations. It is an honorific title that means respect.
Hearing that Wu Zhongyuan addressed him as sir, the old blind man was very frightened and waved his hands repeatedly, "You are old and thick-skinned, and you rely on your elders to sell your elders. It's good to have an old name." After saying this, he raised his hand to Jiang Nan and said, "I have met the second girl."
After the old blind man finished speaking, Jiang Nan looked surprised. Since this person called her Second Girl, he meant that he knew her identity.
The old blind man was invisible, but he seemed to be able to guess what Jiang Nan was thinking, and took the initiative to say, "I have been here for a long time, and I am always better informed. Besides, agarwood that has been aged for hundreds of years is very rare. I can get it occasionally. The people of the Er tribe are not willing to use it for themselves and collect treasures as tribute."
After the old blind man finished speaking, Jiang Nan's face became more suspicious and she tilted her head to look at Wu Zhongyuan.
Wu Zhongyuan smiled and nodded at him. There was indeed a faint aroma on Jiang Nan's body. He didn't know what it was, but the old blind man actually knew that the Big Ear Tribe was an affiliated tribe of the Niu Tribe and would give it to the Niu Tribe every year. Pay tribute for protection.
It was only then that Sha Qian Dao, who had been thrown out by Jiang Nan, came to his senses and got up, yelling at the crowd of people who were laughing and watching. After the people dispersed, he glanced at Wu Zhongyuan and others fiercely, and then walked north. .
"It's not a good place to stay for a long time," the old blind man said in a low voice, "Killing with a Thousand Swords is the spy of Qixing Mountain. I came here with the intention of using the dragon stick."
After the old blind man finished speaking, Jiang Nan curled his lips and smiled, then raised his hand to the waiter, "Have a bowl of noodle soup with me."
Before the waiter could reply, the second one yelled at the top of his lungs, "Didn't you hear what the second nobleman said? Hurry up and bring the soup noodles, and ask for a big bowl."
At this time, there were still many people watching the fun at the door who had not left. The second child's flattery directly exposed Jiang Nan's identity. Wu Zhongyuan frowned and looked at it, but Jiang Nan didn't look at it, or even looked at it.
The old blind man hesitated for a moment and whispered, "The tree is big and attracts the wind, so it's better to go there earlier."
"No rush, let's go after dinner." Wu Zhongyuan said casually.
The old blind man hesitated to speak, but finally said nothing more.
Wu Zhongyuan and the old blind man were not thinking about eating. The second brother had just finished the labor reform and had no fat in his stomach. He was salivating at the sight of wine and meat. Seeing that the three of them no longer touched the leftovers or drank, they ate in a hurry. clean.
During the dinner, Wu Zhongyuan pointed at the second child and asked Jiang Nan why it was not allowed to use spiritual energy. Before she could finish speaking, Jiang Nan took out a bamboo tube from his waist, poured a pill out of it and handed it to Wu Zhongyuan.
Wu Zhongyuan reached out to take it and handed it to the second child with his backhand.
The second child hurriedly put down his chopsticks and took them with both hands, thanking him profusely. He was actually willing to flatter the horse in the wind.
However, Wu Zhongyuan was very awkward when he was photographed because he had no idea, was not good at using words, and did not know how to use tactful words.
The meal was paid in advance. After Jiang Nan put down his chopsticks and rinsed his mouth, Wu Zhongyuan stood up and said, "Talk elsewhere."
Jiang Nan nodded, pulled out his chair, turned around and left first. Wu Zhongyuan went over to help the old blind man. Seeing this, the second child hurriedly took over.
At this time, the four of them were in a good mood. Jiang Nan finally waited for Wu Zhongyuan, and Wu Zhongyuan finally got his wish. The old blind man whose pearls were covered in dust finally met someone who knew the truth. The second child not only climbed up a high branch, but also recovered his spiritual energy. Well, it's a good thing I didn't sneak away before, otherwise I might not be able to recover my spiritual energy cultivation.
After going out, Wu Zhongyuan took out a few more copper pieces and handed them to his second son, "Take Mr. Wang to take a bath, change clothes, and then go to the woods east of Zhendong to find us."
The second brother agreed, took the copper piece and put it in his waist, pulling the old blind man towards the west.
Goat Valley is a night market. At this time, except for the street where the wine shop is located, there are no people on the other streets. When there is no one around, Wu Zhongyuan asked, "Where have you been these days?"
"We haven't gone far. We're right near the Goat Valley. We just spent a few days returning to Lianshan on the way," Jiang Nan said, then turned to look north, "Have you seen the words I left in the cave?"
Wu Zhongyuan nodded, "But your father tricked you into going back?"
"It's not a lie. The queen is really unwell, but it's not as serious as what the father said," Jiang Nan pointed to the woods to the east and narrated. His previous guess was correct. Jiang Nan was indeed waiting for him near the Goat Valley. But after waiting for many days, he did not show up. Later, Jiang Zheng sent someone to find her, saying that her mother was ill and asking her to go back to visit, so Jiang Nan went back to stay for a few days.
Before Jiang Nan left, everyone in Qixing Mountain had already set up a formation here. When they set up the formation, Jiang Nan watched from a distance. Since he didn't know their motive for setting up the formation, he didn't alert them and just remembered it secretly. Where the formation eye is, if he really comes, Jiang Nan can show up to stop him. Even if he accidentally enters it, she can destroy the formation eye and save him from trouble.
Jiang Nan only stayed in Lianshan for a few days, and something unexpected happened during the few days she left. In fact, on her way south, she already knew that the three tribes had ceded six cities to him, but she did not go there. Search, but continue to come here and wait.
Wu Zhongyuan did not ask Jiang Nan why he did not go to the city under his jurisdiction to find him, because the relationship between the two had not yet developed to that point. Beside the ancient tomb where the Qinglong Armor was sealed, Jiang Nan stated in front of everyone that the two had already They were actually a couple, but they just didn't want him to fall into the hands of the Bear Clan and the Bird Clan. In fact, nothing happened between them, not even close words were said.
While talking, the two arrived at the forest in the east of the town. The well dug earlier in the formation had been built with bluestone by the people in the town, and a fence was surrounding it. Next to the well stood a stone tablet with the inscription " The word "Longjing".
The two found a place to sit near the well. Wu Zhongyuan first briefly told Jiang Nan how he got the dragon stick, and then told Jiang Nan about the changes that had happened in Nanguan not long ago, including his understanding of the Six Paths and the The speculation was later revealed.
Due to the large amount of information, Jiang Nan did not answer Wu Zhongyuan's words immediately. He pondered for a moment and then said, "If the place guarded by the four divine beasts is the exit for the gods, ghosts and monsters to come here, then where is the Beast King? And who is guarding it? they?"
Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and said, "It is still unknown, but one thing is certain, that is, the Beast King is sealed in our world, and the seal has begun to loosen. Previously, Snow Monster and Qiongqi had attacked the Bear Clan's Daqiu and Da Kuang, the Bird Tribe and the Ox Tribe have also been invaded by ancient beasts, which is proof that the seal has been loosened."
"If that's what you said, the three tribes may not be able to withstand the attacks of the other five." Jiang Nan frowned and shook his head, "Even if they are hostile to each other, we are their common enemy. You must know that they have been sealed for thousands of years. It’s all because of us. With thousands of years of accumulated resentment, it would be strange if they regain their freedom and intensify their revenge. They may form alliances with each other, but they will not join forces with us.”
Wu Zhongyuan did not answer the call.
Jiang Nan changed the subject again, "What do you want to do with that dwarf and the blind man by your side?"
Wu Zhongyuan expressed his thoughts and plans.
After listening to what Wu Zhongyuan said, Jiang Nan frowned. In fact, she started to frown when Wu Zhongyuan was halfway through speaking. Now it is no secret that Wu Zhongyuan is the reincarnation of the Golden Dragon. With his identity, it seems inappropriate to steal things. .
"It doesn't seem appropriate," Jiang Nan shook his head and said, "This kind of behavior is equivalent to stealing."
"Usual measures should be used in extraordinary times." Wu Zhongyuan said. The social structure at this time was somewhat like that of the late Qing Dynasty, when all ethnic groups kept to themselves, hiding their private interests for profit. In fact, this approach was very narrow. Only by sharing what was needed and making progress together could It's the right path. To put it bluntly, it's really good when everyone is good. However, trying to persuade various tribes to share their needs is nothing more than wishful thinking. We can only use extraordinary means to force "reform and opening up."
Regarding Wu Zhongyuan's views, Jiang Nan did not express his position clearly, so he reserved his own opinions.
Not long after, the second brother came back with the old blind man in hand. The old blind man had taken a bath and looked much more energetic. However, there were no ready-made clothes for sale at this time. I don’t know where the second brother got him a red dress and wore it. He looked nondescript.
Wu Zhongyuan wanted to say something about it, but after thinking about it, he didn't say anything. This guy is an armadillo and has no concept of aesthetics. For it, the function of clothes is to keep out the cold and cover up its shame.
The second brother pulled the old blind man closer. When he got close, he nervously said to Wu Zhongyuan, "Brother, that stinky bitch has been following us. I'm afraid she's still thinking about your stick."
Wu Zhongyuan nodded, and then asked the old blind man, "Mr. Wang, how far is Qixing Mountain from here?"
"Seven Star Mountain is located northwest of Goat Valley, about three hundred miles away." The old blind man said.
Wu Zhongyuan estimated in his mind when the people from Qixing Mountain would arrive after the news of Sha Qian Dao came out. The people from Qixing Mountain were also present when he was bargaining with the three tribes. They knew that he and the three tribes were at odds with each other. I don't dare to plot against him, but people outside the three tribes don't care whether he is the reincarnation of the Golden Dragon or not. They are so greedy that they can do anything.
While Wu Zhongyuan was frowning and thinking, Jiang Nan briefly informed the old blind man of what Wu Zhongyuan had said before, and then asked, "Mr. Wang, in your opinion, is this appropriate?"
When Jiang Nan talked about the situation in Six Paths, the old blind man was surprised but not overly surprised. He didn't know that Jiang Nan wanted to use his words to persuade Wu Zhongyuan to give up the idea of "committing crimes everywhere" and just think that Jiang Nan was taking the exam. He was wise, and after careful consideration, he nodded slowly, "There is nothing wrong with following the authority when it comes to matters."
"Huh?" Jiang Nan frowned.
The old blind man said sternly, "I would like to ask your noble lord, if a melee of six paths really breaks out, how will these alien tribes stand?"
Jiang Nan was silent after hearing this. She had indeed ignored this link.
"Do you want to come with us?" Wu Zhongyuan struck while the iron was hot.
Jiang Nan looked at Wu Zhongyuan, thought about it and nodded, "You guys find a safe place and wait for me. I will go back to the Niu Clan and bring some valuable things. Even if I steal them, I have to make some compensation with the other party..."
