Chapter 127: Snooping for news
Yunzhou, Luoyun City.
As a state city that was most severely affected by the war, four years later, this city was rebuilt and order was restored.
Only on the streets, there are already many faces of prairie people, walking domineeringly on the road, looking superior to others.
People are divided into three, six or nine grades. This trend has been inevitable since Tuvahar came to the throne.
Those people from various tribes in the grassland have a very high status, and the people who once belonged to the Feng Kingdom had to take a detour when they saw them.
"It's my honor that you like to eat this sweet-scented osmanthus cake. You don't have to pay for it." A vendor selling sweet-scented osmanthus cake was showing a forced smile.
"Hahahaha, you Maple people are still good at being human, I like it!"
The freeloader is naturally a person from a certain grassland tribe. His mouth is full of cakes, and his words are a bit awkward. Become vague.
As he said that, he walked away with a few pieces of white, tender and sweet osmanthus cake, and then turned and left.
At this time, a young man with a tall and straight figure walked over and accidentally collided with the prairie man.
“Damn it, you don’t have eyes? You damn Maple countryman, look at me.”
This man from the grassland was blocked in his mouth mid-sentence.
In front of him, the Fengguo man who bumped into him was holding a huge pair of antlers in his left hand and carrying a rather large hammer behind his back.
With this outfit, you can tell at a glance that he is a martial arts practitioner.
"Humph, it's a martial artist again." The freeloader prairie man snorted coldly, remembering this ordinary-looking Maple countryman in his heart, and planned to go back and look through the recent wanted notices to see if there was any portrait of him. .
The person carrying the huge antlers was none other than Li Qing. Along the way, he had seen scenes of grassland people bullying former maple people countless times.
Unfortunately, he only has the power of one person and cannot control it even if he wants to.
“Store, pack two portions of sweet-scented osmanthus cake for me.”
Li Qing was holding antlers in one hand, but in the other hand, he didn’t know when, there was an extra one. The purse containing silver was embroidered with the totem pattern of a certain prairie tribe.
"Okay, objective please wait a moment!"
It didn't take long for the two osmanthus cakes to be packed up, and the shopkeeper handed them to Li Qing with a sincere smile:
"Two osmanthus cakes, I charge you a total of five copper coins. Hey, sir, five copper coins are enough. Why do you give so much broken silver?"
Li Qing took the osmanthus cake and put it on the table. He waved his hand and said, "The extra money should be paid by the person just now."
Leaving these words, Li Qing started walking around the city while eating sweet-scented osmanthus cake.
The newly established Wu Dynasty was not very good in all aspects. The people living here can only be said to be barely able to survive, and they are definitely not living a good life. It can be seen from what happened just now. two.
After staying in the mountains for more than four years, in order to learn more information, Li Qing decided to find a place to inquire.
Soon, Li Qing came to a shop selling medicinal materials at the end of the street.
"Shopkeeper, don't you accept this thing? It's the antlers of a stag!" Li Qing walked in holding the antlers.
As soon as he heard the word deer antler, the drug store owner immediately narrowed his eyes and looked at the upright young man who walked in from the door.
Bang!
Li Qing placed the antlers on the counter of the shop and let the shopkeeper fumble around.
"Hey, sir, you are mistaken, this is not an antler, it is just a pair of antlers."
"Antlers are antlers that have just grown out and have not hardened yet, then Things have medicinal value, but the antlers are probably not worth much!" "But your antlers look quite spectacular, but some of them are cut off at length. If you want to sell them, I'll give them a try! I am willing to pay three taels of silver to buy it back and use it as a decoration.”
Upon hearing this, Li Qing's face suddenly turned dark.
This thing is just antlers and not antlers? No wonder when he cut it before, he always felt that it was different from the deer antlers he had seen before.
Thanks to his expectation, he brewed a jar of Sophora flavescens and antler wine. It seems that the word "antler" has to be removed, and it can only be called century-old Sophora antler wine.
“That’s it.”
“Hahaha, little brother, you should be a warrior and not an hunter, right? Generally, experienced hunters will not admit their mistake.” The shopkeeper laughed. .
Li Qing did not deny it. He nodded and said: "Well, four years ago, when the horse thieves came, I ran to the mountains and forests to take refuge. I have been away for four years. I don't know what the situation is in the Wu Dynasty now. "
"How about this, shopkeeper, tell me what happened after the founding of the Wu Dynasty?"
As he spoke, Li Qing took out a few pieces of silver. Handed directly to the shopkeeper.
As soon as he saw the silver, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up. He immediately coughed and began to tell Li Qing about the major and minor events that had occurred since the founding of the Wu Dynasty.
This lecture took more than half an hour. The pharmacy manager directly transformed into a storyteller, and he could be said to be eloquent.
"In this way, under the instigation of the dog official Gao Yudong, the imperial court restarted the warrior hunt order, but this time it only pursued and killed those warriors who used force to rebel against the ban, and ignored those Jianghu people who kept their own laws and regulations."< br>
“So that’s what those wanted posters with rewards you see on the streets are all about.”
“With the huge rewards, these people in the world actually started fighting among themselves. To earn a bounty.”
“That’s so fucking outrageous.”
Hearing this, Li Qing groped his chin, and his eyes gradually became colder.
"However, I heard that the assassination of officials of the Wu Dynasty by these people in the world seems to be premeditated and organized."
"The Holy Lord suspects that this is inseparable from the Southern Dynasty. There has been a plot recently. Regarding the signs of the use of troops in the Southern Dynasty, I heard rumors that the important cities and towns near Xiaocuiling have accumulated a lot of troops. "
When he said this, the pharmacy manager lowered his voice, for fear of fear. Passed out.
"That's it, sir. Is there anything else you want to know? Since I lost contact with Nanchao Quanshan City, my pharmacy business has been hard to do. But for news about this situation, please ask me. You really asked the right person."
Looking at the shopkeeper's confident look, Li Qing shook his head, handed the other person a few pieces of silver, and then left the place with the antlers. A pharmacy.
He doesn't plan to sell the antlers. After all, they are the antlers of the king of stags that are galloping in the mountains and forests. It took him three years to hunt and kill the deer, but he only sold them for a few taels of silver. It was really a pity. .
Besides, he was not very short of money, he was just using the antlers to find an excuse to inquire about the news about the Wu Dynasty.
“I didn’t expect that before he moved south, Commander Qian actually found out the person behind the bribery of the Mo army. Unfortunately, he failed to catch him. Instead, he let the dog officer get it in the Wu Dynasty. "Asylum"
Li Qing thought in his heart that he had made a decision and was preparing to go to the current imperial capital of the Wu Dynasty.
It is said that there are still many warriors dormant in Shengtian today, and many of them have quite high bounties.
Li Qing became a little curious. Who would have the highest bounty on his head now? Would there be any faces he was familiar with?
In this way, Li Qing bought a horse in Luoyun City, and then hid the antlers of the Stag King in the Extreme Night World.
The next day, he rode out of the city and rushed to the imperial capital, which he had not returned to for a long time.
