Pawn Crossing the River

Chapter 15 Qin Xiang (Part 2)

Tucheng has no city guards and does not need any road guide. Anyone can come.

Qi Xuansu put away his armor and horses and entered the city with Qin Xiang who dismounted.

Qi Xuansu asked: "Are the people from the Eight Tribes in this city?"

"Not there." Qin Xiang shook his head and said, "They are outside the city. I stayed in the city for two days before I went to see him."

"He." Qi Xuansu finally asked, "What is the name of this 'him'?"

Qin Xiang hesitated for a moment and replied: "Wei Guan."

Qi Xuansu said: "I've never heard of it. How do you know each other?"

Qin Xiang replied: "I met him when I went to the Taoist temple to offer incense."

Qi Xuansu put away his silver fish talisman: "People from Taoist temples, former Taoist sects, and any secret association are inextricably linked to the Taoist sect."

Qin Xiang said: "I thought he was a member of the Taoist sect at first, so I corresponded with him... If not for this, I would not..."

Qi Xuansu laughed and said, "No? Apart from Tiangang Hall, I am afraid no one would be willing to come to such a large avenue gate. Even if Tiangang Hall comes here, it will not be for sightseeing, but to carry out the duties of the ancestral court." Order to wipe out the secret society here, but you believed his lies."

Qin Xiang was speechless.

Qi Xuansu never asked Qin Xiang's specific identity and origin, but just assumed that she was an official lady. But now that he had mentioned it, he asked: "What about you? What is your origin?"

Qin Xiang blinked and said softly: "My surname is Qin."

"Your surname is Qin Youru..." Qi Xuansu's voice stopped abruptly.

He suddenly remembered something.

There are only three families in the world: the sage's mansion, Shangqing Zhang, and Longcheng Qin.

The Sage's Mansion is the direct bloodline of the Confucian saint. Shangqing Zhang is the Zhang family of Zhengdao that Qi Xuansu just visited. The last Longcheng Qin refers to the Qin family that started in Chaoyang Mansion in Youzhou, which is today's Tianjia royal family. Because Chaoyang Mansion was called Dragon City in ancient times, it was called Dragon City Qin.

Qi Xuansu asked with a strange expression: "Clan?"

Qin Xiang nodded.

Qi Xuansu was silent for a moment and then asked: "Do you have a title?"

"County Lord." Qin Xiang answered honestly.

Qi Xuansu was stunned for a moment.

If he remembered correctly, the daughter of the emperor was granted the title of princess, the daughter of the prince was granted the title of princess, and the daughter of the prince was granted the title of county lord. In other words, Qin Xiang's father was a county king.

Although the vassal system was abolished in this dynasty, and the kings had no fiefdoms or military power, they were given the power to participate in politics. The royal kings were able to hold civil and military official positions, which should not be underestimated.

Today, the princess and the county owner have also been deprived of their fiefdoms, leaving only one title. But after all, she is a clan girl with a noble status, and it is related to the clan's face. If she is really ruined by that group of people here. , I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble. For the sake of face, the clan would definitely block the news and might even execute Qin Xiang. However, the clan is not an ordinary family, and they will not knock out their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs. They will inevitably take bloody revenge. And the reasons are all ready-made. This place is not in accordance with the king's law. Just in the name of suppressing bandits, the men in black can be mobilized to wipe out this place openly.

Qin Xiang whispered: "I ran away secretly. If things get too big, I might be detained by the clan government."

Qi Xuansu laughed and said: "You still know the consequences? I thought you were not afraid of anything."

Qin Xiang lowered his head and stopped talking.

Qi Xuansu said: "Then let's leave here before things get serious."

Qin Xiang raised his head and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Qi Xuansu said concisely and concisely: "Run errands for others, find someone to collect a debt."

Qi Xuansu paused and asked, "Have you ever heard of 'Bai Yutang'?"

Qin Xiang shook his head.

Qi Xuansu didn't expect the county chief to know about Bai Yutang. After all, even he, a Jianghu man, had never heard of it, which shows how mysterious it is.

According to Qiniang, "Shangui Yao" is also a member of the Qingping Society, and judging from Qiniang's tone, he is not a C-class member, but probably a B-class member, that is, the holder of the Golden Purple Fish Talisman.

In addition to Qiniang, Qi Xuansu has met two second-class members. One is "Xie Qiuniang", who has cultivated in the stage of returning to her true form. She once fought against Zhang Yuelu and was not significantly disadvantaged. Although she did not know her true identity, Zhang Yuelu recognized her as a member of the Confucian sect and a hermit inheritance. The other one is "Dian Jiang Lip", whose true identity is Li Qingnu, the courtesan of the Imperial Capital raised by the Li family. Although Li Qingnu is only in the Yuxu stage of cultivation, which is similar to Qi Xuansu, her importance does not lie in her cultivation. Why, but her identity. At this point, Qi Xuansu is incomparable.

As for Qiniang, although Qi Xuansu does not know her true identity, she is well-informed, has great magical powers, and knows many inside stories of Taoism. Qi Xuansu has always suspected that she was once a high-quality Taoist priest of Taoism.

From this, we can see the division of members of Qingpinghui. Members such as D are peripheral members and informal members; members of class C are formal members, but at the bottom of the formal members; members of class A are undoubtedly the top leaders of Qingpinghui. The real core members, even the people behind the scenes. Class B members are the elite members of the Qingping Society and are the mainstay.

What Class B members have in common is that they have a good status and have a certain amount of power and connections. In other words, Qi Xuansu is still far from the standard of a second-class member, but Zhang Yuelu just meets the standard.

In this case, what is the identity of "Mountain Ghost Ballad" here? Could it be that he is the lord of a city?

Just then, several children ran towards the two of them, seemingly playing and fighting.

Qin Xiang whispered, "Be careful, these children are here to steal things. The first time I came, they stole a purse from me."

Qi Xuansu smiled and said nothing.

A child looked back at his companions from time to time, and accidentally bumped into Qi Xuansu.

Then this boy, who looked to be about ten years old, stuck to Qi Xuansu, did not move for a long time, and finally raised his head and looked at Qi Xuansu.

Qi Xuansu said lightly, "The strap of the shoulder bag is made of cow tendons mixed with steel wire. It can't be cut with a knife, so you have to use a saw."

The child showed a bit of embarrassment on his face, put away the blade in his hand, and stepped back a few steps.

At the same time, another child passed by Qi Xuansu like a swimming fish.

The child had something in his hand.

A gorgeous pistol.

The child stopped and held the pistol, feeling a little hot.

Qi Xuansu turned around and hooked his finger, signaling the child to return the pistol.

Unexpectedly, the child suddenly held the pistol with both hands, pointed the muzzle at Qi Xuansu, then pressed down the hammer and hooked the trigger, with extremely skilled movements.

The child's face showed a ferocity that did not match his age, and said: "Hand over the money!"

The situation changed in an instant.

The pedestrians around were not surprised, just watching the excitement.

Qi Xuansu was not afraid at all, and said: "If you dare not fire the gun, then the fire gun is not as good as a fire stick."

The child shouted: "Stop talking nonsense, hand over the money!"

Qin Xiang had seen the power of this pistol, and his heart was already lifted.

However, Qi Xuansu just said: "Put down the fire gun, I can pretend that it never happened."

After all, the child was weak, even if he held the "Shenlong Pistol" with both hands, he could not hold on for too long. After a while, his arms began to tremble and shake. He closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and pulled the trigger directly.

A gunshot.

When the child opened his eyes, he found that Qi Xuansu had disappeared.

No matter how powerful a hand gun is, it is impossible to smash a person into pieces with one shot.

Where is the person?

The child looked up and looked around.

Then he heard a voice behind him: "I don't want to repeat it a second time."

The child reacted very quickly, immediately kneeling on his knees and raising his hand gun with both hands: "I was wrong, I was blind, and the master is generous, please forgive me this time."

Qi Xuansu reached out and took his hand gun without saying much.

He has seen a lot of such things. Some people specialize in training children to do such things. Generally speaking, few people will be cruel to children. At most, they will beat them up, so they will not suffer any losses and can easily get something for nothing.

Qi Xuansu loaded the hand gun and said, "Don't let me see you again."

Several children ran away in a flash.

The onlookers gradually dispersed.

Qin Xiang then came closer and looked at what Qi Xuansu was holding: "This is the 'Shenlong Hand Gun', it can only be worn by guerrillas."

Qi Xuansu glanced at her: "There are many on the black market."

"I've been to the black market." Qin Xiang said seriously, "The hand guns sold on the black market have all had their numbers erased, but yours doesn't have one."

Qi Xuansu looked down and saw that there was indeed a string of inconspicuous small characters on the handle, with the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches plus the year, month and number.

This "Shenlong Hand Gun" was indeed not bought on the black market, but was produced by the authentic Tianji Hall.

Qi Xuansu didn't say anything, but just put the hand gun back into the gun case.

Under the leadership of Qin Xiang, the two came to the door of an inn, and Qin Xiang said: "I live in this inn, it shouldn't be a black shop."

Qi Xuansu was a little amused and wanted to say that you know nothing about black shops, but after thinking about it, he still gave the county lord some face. After all, she is the county lord, and it doesn't hurt to pay attention to some human relations. Make a good relationship, maybe you can use it someday. There is no need to turn good relationships into bad enemies just for the sake of a momentary verbal pleasure, which will not be worth the loss.

Entering the inn, Qi Xuansu immediately felt a sense of familiarity.

This inn seemed not to be an ordinary inn, nor was it the Taiping inn, but the "inn".

That is, the "inn" that specializes in special business.

Qi Xuansu's trip to Fengtai County started from the "inn".

Qi Xuansu looked around. There were not many people in the lobby, but they all looked fierce and murderous.

Qi Xuansu looked at Qin Xiang with a strange look, and couldn't help imagining the scene at that time. A young man broke into the "inn" and asked for accommodation. The key is that the "inn" really let her stay for two days.

"What, is there a problem?" Qin Xiang subconsciously touched her face and found that there was nothing dirty. She became more and more confused, because she felt that Qi Xuansu's eyes were not like the eyes of a man appreciating a woman, but the eyes of a fool.

Qi Xuansu retracted his gaze and said, "There is no problem. This is indeed not a shady shop."
