Chapter 69 The Overlord raises the beauties to bring disaster
“Only one level has been broken.”
“The energy and blood have more than doubled.”
He lowered his head and looked at himself silently.
Chen Yulou has only one feeling.
That is tyranny!
Every inch of his body contains an unimaginable power.
That day at Pingshan, he used his night eyes to watch a group of thieves surround and kill Shan Xiezi.
Standing at the front, Kunlun's energy and blood were like a pillar of fire, rising into the sky, almost suppressing the firelight of the glazed lamp above his head.
But now he is no less generous.
The aura around him surged like the tide of a river, and the lights in the hall swayed uncertainly.
Light and shadow flicker.
The dust on the beams and columns fell like snowflakes.
But as soon as it appeared outside his head, it would disappear instantly.
It was as if there was an invisible barrier within a few meters of him.
"There is also internal refining of the five internal organs, but it's a pity that it's half a step away."
Muttered in a low voice.
Chen Yulou said it was a pity.
There was no regret in his expression.
Sky out in one step.
The void in front of him twisted.
There seemed to be a line of smoke passing through the basement.
The next second, the light and shadow in the distance moved, and someone else had appeared outside the furnace.
Without any hesitation.
Stretched out his hands, grabbed the feet of the alchemy furnace, shouted softly, and heard a roar. The bronze furnace, which weighed hundreds of kilograms, slowly rose from the ground inch by inch.
Lift it until it's chest high.
He just put it down with a bang.
The carefully fired ink blue bricks could not withstand the terrifying force and fell apart.
Even, it’s just the remaining energy that remains.
The ground for a full three or four feet around was cracked.
Dense cracks spread out like a spider web.
Huh——
Clap your hands.
A trace of satisfaction flashed in Chen Yulou's eyes.
It was not until this moment that he finally felt a little like practicing the great path.
His eyes are burning, his body is majestic, and he is wearing a long gown without any wind.
Just standing there gave people an extremely oppressive feeling.
But...
My mind moved.
The invisible momentum disappeared in an instant like an ebbing tide, hiding without a trace.
"I don't know how many days have passed in the outside world."
"It's time to go out and show your face, otherwise... I'll probably go crazy with anxiety."
Wait for a breath to gather.
Chen Yulou raised his eyebrows and murmured.
He could roughly sense that a long time had passed during this retreat.
But I really don’t have a specific number in mind for how many days.
I have been here for more than half a year.
He actually understands the current situation very well.
He alone is connected to the entire Chenjiazhuang and Changsheng Mountain. In addition, under the big tree of the Chen family, there are countless large and small families and people in the industry.
It’s really not suitable to not show up for too long.
only.
It’s okay to still be at the Qi Refining Pass now.
He had a strong premonition that when he condensed Aoki's true body, he would spend more time practicing in seclusion.
You still have to plan ahead.
Thinking all the way, Chen Yulou walked with his hands behind his back. After a while, he climbed up the stairs and appeared on the first floor.
The sun shines in through the cracks in the window.
In the beams of light, dust floats uncertainly.
He squinted his eyes slightly to avoid the strong light.
It's not that it's dazzling, it's just that I stayed underground for too long and suddenly appeared under the scorching sun, which made me a little uncomfortable.
Shake your head and smile.
Chen Yulou didn't waste any more time and opened the door with a creak.
A heat wave hit instantly.
At the same time, two more exclamations came.
One is clearly visible, the other is slightly blurry.
“Shopkeeper, are you out of quarantine?”
Huamaguai was still talking without saying a word.
Until the sound of opening the door sounded, others jumped up and shouted in surprise and joy.
Although Kunlun beside him could not speak, his eager expression had already exposed his emotions at the moment.
“Well, I’m out of seclusion.”
Chen Yulou smiled and nodded.
"How many days until I retreat?"
"Six days...plus today's daytime."
"So long?"
Chen Yulou frowned slightly.
He thought it would only be three or two days at most.
Unexpectedly, I ended up in seclusion for five or six days without realizing it.
"The shopkeeper must be hungry. I'll go to the back kitchen and ask someone to deliver a table of food."
Seeing that he was safe and sound, he was even more energetic than before.
Hua Maguai's hanging heart finally fell back into his stomach, and he quickly added.
“That’s fine.”
Listen to him.
Only then did Chen Yulou react.
No food for five or six days.
At this moment, he was not too tired or hungry.
It can only be said that Aoki Kung Fu is worthy of being a method of cultivating immortals.
Of course, he is still far from being a worldly person.
Even quite greedy for words.
Especially the contents of a cup.
Having a few drinks whether or not you have nothing to do is definitely one of the great joys in life.
“Kunlun, the shopkeeper, I have been in seclusion for six days. You won’t follow me and stay here all the time, right?”
Wait until Huamaguai leaves in a hurry.
Chen Yulou suddenly turned around and his eyes fell on Kunlun's honest face.
Almost forgot about him.
This guy is stubborn and stubborn.
As long as it is what you are told to do, you will have to do it even if you risk getting hurt.
Moreover, he was still wearing the same clothes as that day, his eyes were bloodshot, and he couldn't hide his tiredness.
This possibility is not small.
Kunlun shook his head repeatedly.
He gestured with his hands and pointed to the wall on one side.
“Still silly and happy.”
Seeing that he was still smiling to himself, Chen Yulou couldn't help but sigh and curse.
"Is your kid going to die?"
To be honest, he was both angry and moved by Kunlun.
Six days.
Just standing outside the door.
He could almost imagine what it was like these days.
Guaizi and Honggu must have come to persuade me during this period.
But he would not take a step. He would eat when he was hungry, and take a nap against the wall when he was sleepy.
“Silly, you can’t do this again.”
Chen Yulou stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a serious face.
Kunlun has the innocence and transparency of a child.
So there is almost a natural keen sense of good and evil.
If he doesn’t put the point of what he said, he won’t take it seriously and will continue to do so next time.
Kunlun's eyes widened. Seeing the serious look on the shopkeeper's face, his face tensed up and he nodded heavily.
“Are you sleepy?”
I saw him hesitantly shaking his head and then nodding.
Chen Yulou was even more helpless.
In a prosperous world, there would still be room for people like him to survive.
But now that chaos has arisen in the world and wars continue, in such troubled times, his character will only make people eat up the bones and dregs.
“By the way, have you forgotten what I told you last time?”
"I'll ask Uncle Yu to find a teacher for you later and learn how to read and digit first."
When he heard this, Kunlun's eyes suddenly lit up.
Before, he was worried that the shopkeeper would forget.
Unexpectedly, he always remembered it.
"Literacy is only the first step. In addition, you must also learn to distinguish between good and evil. This is a cannibalistic world. If it is always like this, you will easily suffer when you go out."
Chen Yulou said calmly.
But after hearing this, Kunlun's face suddenly became anxious.
Seems like he can see through his mind.
Chen Yulou waved his hand, "The shopkeeper doesn't mean to drive you away, just a reminder."
That is, he would have stayed in a bandit den like Changsheng Mountain for ten years. It has been soaked in dye vats for many years.
Of course, this is also the reason why Chen Yulou trusts him.
You really have to be cunning and do all kinds of evil.
I kicked him down the mountain a long time ago, how can I still carry him with me all the time.
He added the following sentence.
Kunlun became quiet again.
He has no ambitions and ambitions, as long as he can follow the shopkeeper.
He still remembers it till now.
If the shopkeeper hadn't brought him back, he would have died in the mountains.
While talking.
Huamaguai has returned.
"Let's go into the building."
Chen Yulou greeted, then turned around and walked straight into the building.
Kunlun followed quickly.
Wait and take a seat on the second floor.
Not long after, a group of good-looking girls came over holding jade plates in their hands.
At a glance, they are all teenage girls.
The figure is delicate and the appearance is outstanding. I dare not say that the moonlight is stunning, but they are still beauties.
They were all adopted by the Chen family.
In these days, although I am not hungry enough at the end of the year, I have to change my son to eat.
However, in the past few years due to natural and man-made disasters, countless families have been destroyed and displaced.
There are countless people selling their sons and daughters.
Chenjiazhuang is one of the largest households in Xiangyin.
I don’t know how many people sent their children to Zhuangzi to be slaves or maids, just to survive.
Nothing more.
‘Chen Yulou’ is not addicted to female sex.
It’s not good to just let them starve to death.
So she stayed in Zhuangzi, either doing some fine work as a prostitute, or serving as a maid by his side.
Now I look at the group of warblers and swallows, each with its own beauty.
The sound is like the cry of an oriole, which is so shy and delicious.
Chen Yulou's Taoist heart, which was devoted to cultivating immortality, was almost corroded and destroyed.
"Why don't you come and serve the shopkeeper's meal?"
Just when he hesitated.
Huamaguai immediately played the role of a complete loser and greeted with a smile.
The girls were startled at first.
Immediately they gathered around with expressions of surprise. In troubled times, human lives are like straw.
Especially girls like them who have nothing to rely on are like rootless duckweeds.
Looking pretty will only become a danger.
The majority of them have been in the village for seven or eight years, and the youngest of them have been in the village for three or four years.
But on weekdays, apart from serving tea and water, there is nothing else.
The current shopkeeper, Feng Shen Junyi, had never married a wife at that time.
As for any pretty girl in Zhuangzi, who has no thoughts?
Today, who would miss such a good opportunity?
If they can catch the eye of the shopkeeper, their status will skyrocket when they become pregnant.
The eldest young lady of the Chen family.
Thinking of this, the smiles on the faces of the girls never disappeared.
"Master, these are the truffles that were just delivered. Please try this."
"Shopkeeper, let me squeeze your shoulders for you."
"This is I’ll feed you the newly brewed rice wine that Shopkeeper Liu of Quanzhenlou just delivered.”
“…”
In the blink of an eye.
Chen Yulou was surrounded by a gust of fragrant wind.
The orioles and swallows are fat and thin, and they are twenty-eight beauties, which are intoxicating.
Damn it, no wonder they say it’s difficult for a hero to be a beauty. Who can control this scene?
Leaning on the recliner, several girls held fans and fanned him gently.
There are all kinds of delicacies at the opening of your mouth, and drinks are brought to you at the wave of your hand.
They are all top-notch ingredients.
The best chef in Xiangyin cooked for him.
Even with more than a hundred years of vision, he has never heard of many ingredients.
Deer tail, bear paws, and foie gras can only be regarded as ordinary dishes.
Kunlun on the side had long been dumbfounded.
He originally wanted to sit down and eat, but he couldn't help but feel a little at a loss.
Huamaguai secretly said hello to him.
Move to follow him downstairs.
Kunlun was hesitating to leave.
Chen Yulou, who was leaning on the recliner, suddenly opened his eyes.
"Okay, let's all go down."
Huamaguai, who had originally planned to step forward and pull Kunlun away, was stunned for a moment, and his heart was full of bitterness.
He wanted the shopkeeper to keep them all.
At least he left an heir for the Chen family.
There is an heir.
In this way, the Chen family can truly last forever.
After all, this business of reverse fighting is different from others. The shopkeeper always takes the lead and never cares about comforting the danger.
What if...
What happens?
The huge Chen family would collapse in one fell swoop.
However, he also knew that the shopkeeper's character was not like this just for a while.
I stopped and saw that the girls also looked disappointed, so I waved my hands.
“As the shopkeeper ordered.”
“Go down, everyone.”
After hearing this, a group of girls did not dare to refuse. They saluted Shi Shiran and then left reluctantly.
Until there were only three people left in the building.
Chen Yulou then breathed out.
“Depraved.”
“So damn depraved.”
Grandma's, I almost couldn't control it.
It’s not that he has no thoughts.
How can humans be ruthless if they are not grass and trees?
He also has seven emotions and six desires.
Especially if there is a soul from later generations in that body now, who has ever experienced such enjoyment?
But...
Compared to the beauty.
Chen Yulou understands one thing more.
Now that I have just come out of seclusion, my state is not yet stable.
It would be almost impossible to go far on the road of cultivating immortality if you just indulge in drunkenness and unscrupulousness at this time.
What's more, I can't even resist this temptation.
The inner demons invade the future.
Or maybe after experiencing three disasters and nine calamities, wouldn’t it turn into ashes in an instant?
"Shopkeeper, why did you drive people away?"
Huamaguai rubbed his hands and asked cautiously.
"You came to me for something?"
Chen Yulou waved his hand and motioned for the two of them to sit down.
"Oh...yes, I almost forgot about the big thing."
After being reminded by him, Huamaguai then remembered the purpose of this trip.
I don’t care about anything else.
He took out a document and handed it to Chen Yulou.
"Shopkeeper, this is the plan that I discussed with the leaders of each channel and the store uncle. You can take a look at it."
"Okay."
Listen to him talking about it.
Chen Yulou did not dare to delay.
After all, when it comes to making money, having a wealthy partner and the right place comes first in cultivation.
Open it at home and read it carefully word for word.
The people who can participate in the discussion on the sale of Mingqi are at least Dao and Fucheng level shopkeepers.
They are active in the bustling city all year round, and the people they cooperate with are all wealthy people.
This is my current thought.
Things that are clear objects are not as strict as those of later generations.
Antique shops, auctions, and various forms of black markets are countless.
Chen Yulou took a look and suddenly found a familiar yet unfamiliar name.
"Who is this person named Hendry?"
After a long list of names, only the province where he was located was stated.
It is the city of Changsha.
It is now the capital city of Hunan Province.
"Oh, this man is a missionary from the Catholic Church. He spends a lot of money and is very interested in antiques and artifacts. Every time there is an auction or black market, he will be invited to participate."
花Although Maguai lives in Xiangyin all year round.
But this is something we all know very well.
When the shopkeeper asked, he immediately explained.
"American?"
"Probably."
"What is the full name, do you remember?"
Chen Yulou always feels that this name I've seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it for a while.
"I heard Uncle Miki say it once."
"It seems to be called Thomas Hendry or something."
Huamaguai frowned, he has always hated those foreign names. .
It’s okay that the name itself is long and difficult to remember.
When you go to the country and follow the locals and choose a Chinese name, the result is always difficult to pronounce.
He complained privately more than once that those foreign devils didn't know how to find a scholar.
Nothing.
He doesn’t have to deal with them anyway.
As long as you can remember one or two words.
"Thomas?!"
Chen Yulou frowned and slowly spit out a name.
"Yes, yes, the shopkeeper seems to be the one you mentioned."
Huamaguai was still racking his brains to think.
When I heard these three words, I felt like a light flashed through my heart.
"Thomas... is interesting."
Chen Yulou shook his head and smiled.
He really never thought that he would hear his name so soon.
During the Republic of China, many missionaries came to China from overseas.
The reason why he attaches so much importance to this name alone.
It’s because this person is the one who entered Xixia Blackwater City together with Partridge Whistle and Elder Liaochen.
Just extrapolating according to the timeline.
Now, he should be heading to Mobei as an explorer.
Why did it appear in Changsha City?
Maybe...
Chen Yulou thought of a possibility.
Thomas was perhaps the earliest missionary.
However, among the antique artifacts that he came into contact with, he accidentally discovered the ruins of Blackwater City, and then he resolutely went to Mobei to try to find the legendary Xixia treasure.
“The shopkeeper?”
Seeing that he suddenly fell silent.
Hua Maguai thought that he had done something wrong, and couldn't help but feel a little on pins and needles.
"Is there something wrong with this person?"
"What?"
Chen Yulou was startled for a moment, then burst into laughter.
If it had been in the past, he would have ignored it.
But now...
"Write a letter to Uncle Sanmu to kick this person out, and also send me an order that the Chen family's shop is no longer allowed to sell open weapons to this person."
Chen Yulou said coldly.
He had no problem with Thomas.
But these days, countless antiques are lost overseas.
The dragon talisman and fish talisman he was looking for were actually taken out of the sea a few years ago.
However, perhaps because of Guixu's spirit, the ship encountered strong winds in the South China Sea, and the entire ship capsized and sank into the deep sea.
Instead, two bronze talismans disappeared for countless years.
Sinked into the land of Guixu again.
I have to say that this is God’s will.
Thomas is a man who spends a lot of money and goes to various auctions. With a little thought, you can guess his identity.
He was clearly an antique dealer who used his status as a missionary to collect artifacts.
There are a lot of good things on this trip to Pingshan.
If you are targeted by him.
There is absolutely only one ending.
“Okay, shopkeeper, I’ve written it down.”
Although Huamaguai didn't know what he meant.
But I still responded honestly.
"By the way, I also asked Uncle Miki to check for me. Is there anyone named Jude Kao in those Catholic churches?"
There were no other questions at the moment.
Chen Yulou handed the document back to Huamaguai and added another sentence.
to be honest.
The moment I saw that name just now.
The first reaction in his mind was Jude Kao.
The same identity, the same means, even the English names are very similar.
If this person is here.
Then he has to re-examine the world.
"...Okay."
Hua Maguai wrote it down one by one.
Seeing that the shopkeeper had no other instructions, he said goodbye and left.
Wait for him to leave.
Kunlun was the only one left in the building.
Seeing him still sitting there motionless.
Chen Yulou couldn't help but smile.
“If you don’t eat it, the food will get cold!”
“Also, come with me to see the old ape later.”
