After leaving Guo Sheng's Guo Mansion with the letter of recommendation, Fang Bi took Hei Wu with him. Instead of wandering around other places in Bianliang City, he went directly to Ye Zhong, the so-called largest medicinal merchant in Bianliang City. Mansion.
Of course, Fang Bie is not a fool like Xue Ling. He values making decisions before taking action, which means he will not take action until he is completely sure.
Although this time the purple-backed geranium is considered an emergency, so there is some lack of preparation, but there are also procedures that should be in place.
And now, when he stepped into Bianliang City, all his plans had already started to move.
Now he was standing in front of the stone lion of Ye Mansion. This time, as soon as he walked in, a tall boy tried to drive him away.
The words tall and young can coexist.
Fang Bie watched the other party's actions and calmly took out the letter of recommendation given to him by Guo Sheng.
"I want to see Ye Zhong." Fang Bie said.
While saying this, he calmly pointed at the tall boy's chest.
Shang Jiuge once said that what she is best at is making others listen to her, at least to the end.
So now it seems that Fang Bie is actually very good at it.
Fang Bie tapped the boy's acupuncture points, then said what he wanted to say, and stuffed the letter into the boy's hand.
"This is Guo Sheng's recommendation letter." Fang Bie said Guo Sheng's name directly, because Guo Sheng's name was very useful in Bianliang City, at least better than Ye Chong's.
Because this young master Guo is really famous in Bianliang City.
In the past ten years, Fang Bie actually met a lot of interesting people, but generally speaking, Fang Bie would not meet them.
This time is no ordinary situation.
"More." Fang Bi looked into the eyes of this tall young man.
"If you don't give this letter from Master Guo to Ye Chong, then I will kill you."
Fang Bie spoke extremely calmly, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
But people can't help but feel that Fang doesn't mean what he says.
Fang Bie saw the fear in the boy's eyes, and then opened his acupuncture points.
After the acupoints were unlocked, the boy immediately knelt in front of Fang Bie: "Master..."
He only said one word, and Fang Don looked at him and snorted coldly. He quickly turned around and ran into the Ye Mansion.
It's just that the front door of Ye Mansion is extremely deserted, with no other audience except Hei Wu.
As for the audience of Heiwu, it means that there is no audience.
He ate a lot of baked buns in the morning and a table full of vegetables at noon.
Hei Wu is very full now.
When the lion is full, he will lie down on the grass and sleep with nothing to do. When the lion is full, he does not sleep, but stands there like a wandering idiot.
Fang Bie looked at Heiwu and said, "Please be more vigilant next time."
Hei Wu turned his head and glanced away at Fang, and then he was in a daze to himself, without answering, neither affirming nor denying.
But Fang Don't know that just telling him is enough, because Hei Wu is smarter than everyone thinks, and people who want to take advantage of Hei Wu are dying.
For example, the green scorpion.
And then, the tall boy ran over all the way, sweating profusely and panting: "Ye, Master Ye has an invitation."
"Why didn't he come out to greet him himself?" Fang Bie looked at the tall boy and said.
The boy was almost crying: "Master Ye, he is reading the letter."
This is really a good reason. Fang Bie nodded and walked towards the door of Ye Mansion. Hei Wu followed Fang Bie.
Ye Zhai is very big.
Although it is not as big as Guo Sheng's Guo Zhai.
Ye Zhai is beautiful.
Although it is not as beautiful as Guo Sheng's Guo Zhai.
But Guo Sheng's Guo family is Bianliang. Not to mention Bianliang, even in the land of China, the Guo family's financial resources can rank among the top five.
At least it is better than a certain shameful Sheng family. The so-called wealth that rivals the country refers to families like the Guo family.
However, although Ye Zhai is not as good as Guo Zhai, being able to compare with Guo Zhai shows that Ye Zhong is really not a simple person.
Because he is just a medicine merchant.
Fang Bie and Hei Wu arrived at the elegant Huxin Pavilion. The boy looked at the Huxin Pavilion and said, "The master is waiting for you inside."
The pavilion in the center of the lake is said to be a pavilion, but in fact it is a three-story building built in the lake, connected by a white stone corridor, with snow-white and pink lotuses blooming on both sides of the corridor.
Lu Yuan nodded and was about to move forward, but the boy continued to say: "The master said that you can only enter alone."
What he meant by this was that everything black could not enter.
Fang Bie smiled and said nothing.
He walked forward, and Hei Wu followed Fang Bing. The tall boy mustered up the courage to hold Hei Wu back, but as soon as he touched the hem of Hei Wu's clothes, he flew straight back. He went out and flew two or three feet away. When he raised his head, he saw that Hei Wu had followed Fang Bie to the center of the corridor.
The so-called blocking means that you need enough strength to be able to block it.
The reason why Fang Bie wanted to bring Hei Wu to Bianliang was because he wanted a thug who could do anything without fear.
In this case, how could Fang Bie tie himself up?
Fang Bie walked in front of the Huxin Pavilion and said with a faint smile: "Fang Bie came to ask to see Mr. Ye."
There was silence inside the door, and amidst the silence, a middle-aged man's voice sounded faintly: "The lotus leaves are infinitely green."
"The lotus flowers in the sun are so red." Fang Bie replied lightly. He asked to see him, and as long as there was a sound coming from inside, Fang Bie came in.
Don't talk about the endless green lotus leaves that connect the sky, even if it talks about Jing Lei's cultivation level, the sky will collapse and the earth will sink into the purple gold hammer.
Fang Bie will also say "Zidian", "Xuanzhen Flame", "Nine Heavens Suspended Sword" will change the world in a shocking way.
As for connecting mouth, who can't do it?
But when he pushed the door open and walked in, he saw a scholar in white facing the window of the Huxin Pavilion. In front of him was a large stretch of lotus leaves, green and picturesque.
"I've met Mr. Ye." Fang Bie said quietly.
"Fang Farewell?" Ye Zhong looked to be in his thirties, with a pale face and a beardless appearance. He looked like a frail scholar. It was hard to imagine that he could possess such massive wealth and medicinal materials channels throughout Bianliang City.
"Exactly." Fang Bie nodded and said.
"Who are you, Guo Sheng?" Ye Chong continued to ask.
There is a book in his hand, and there is a letter in the book, which is the recommendation letter written by Guo Sheng before.
"Friend." Fang Bie said calmly.
"It's not easy to have a good friend like Master Guo." Ye Chong said with a slightly emotional tone: "Why did you come to me?"
"Buy medicine." Fang Bie said calmly.
"You shouldn't come to me to buy medicine." Ye Chong said.
Because he told the truth.
Ye Chong is a medicine seller, but he is not a medicine seller.
He is the largest merchant of medicinal materials in Bianliang City, but he is not the shopkeeper of a drug store, nor is he someone who pays the money and delivers the goods.
Although Guo Sheng's family has several banks, banknotes are sold all over the country.
But the banknote that Guo Sheng himself drew for Fang Bie could never be exchanged.
"But what I bought is not an ordinary medicine." Fang Bie looked at the scholar and said.
"May I ask what medicine you want to buy?" Ye Zhong turned to look at Fang Bie.
This was also the first time he looked at Fang Bi.
This is for Guo Sheng's sake.
It can be seen that Master Guo's face is really very respectable.
"Purple-backed geranium." Fang Bie said these four words quietly.
"I have never heard of this medicine." Ye Zhong said without hesitation.
Fang Bie smiled: "Can you give me a price?"
Ye Chong looked at Fang Bie: "I can't give you a price for the medicine I don't have, because no matter what the price, I can't get it for you."
"So I went to the wrong place?" Fang Bie asked quietly.
"I think that's the case." Ye Chong said lightly, "I don't know who told you this wrong news."
Fang Bie's expression was still calm, showing no disappointment, anger or frustration: "Then can you tell me where I can find Purple-backed Geranium?"
"If you could tell me, I'd be very grateful."
Ye Chong put away the letter in the book: "Master Guo's handwriting is really good."
Saying this, he reached out and flicked the letter out of the window, only to see it fall dangling in the infinite blue lake with lotus leaves in the sky.
Ye Zhong's voice sounded unhurriedly: "I don't know, you two can go."
The moment Ye Zhong's voice fell, Hei Wu took a step forward.
The floor of the Huxin Pavilion was made of fine bluestone, but when Hei Wu stepped on it, the bluestone under his feet instantly sank and cracked, so much so that he stepped into it with his whole foot.
Then Hei Wu took a second step forward.
But at this time, Fang Bi's voice rang out unhurriedly.
"let's go."
Heiwu took back the second step he took.
He pulled his foot out of the bluestone with some difficulty, and saw that the footprint was half a foot deep. The entire pit was sunken downwards, but the shape of the footprint was very clear.
Fang Bie turned around and left, and Hei Wu followed behind Fang Bie.
They passed through the corridor.
Then disappeared from sight.
Ye Zhong put down the book and sighed quietly: "Who leaked the news that we have purple-backed geranium here?"
In the room, a woman's voice came quietly: "Report to the master, there will be no more than five people who know the news about Purple-backed Geranium, including our buyer."
"No more than five people?" Ye Chong smiled: "Then now and this party, plus the two people behind him, plus you and me, there are already four."
The woman's voice was still calm: "There may be a problem in some link."
"But which link it is, my subordinates will naturally find out."
"How long will it take you to find out?" Ye Zhong asked.
The other party paused for a moment, and then said: "Ten days."
"Ten days is too long, how about five days?" Ye Chong asked.
"Okay." The woman replied, "But the master needs more money."
"Even I need more money?" Ye Chong laughed.
"Yes, there are ten days of investigation on ten days, and there are five days of investigation on five days." The woman said.
"What if I want to know the answer in three days?" Ye Chong asked again.
"I can't do it," the woman said.
"It turns out there are things you can't do." Ye Chong laughed.
"There are many things I cannot do," the woman said quietly.
"Then tell me who this person is." Ye Zhong asked.
Saying this, he turned around and looked at the footprints Hei Wu left on the ground just now: "Who is that Hei boy?"
"This black boy, if I am not mistaken, he should be the Black Sky Demon God who is currently ranked 41st on the Jianghu Ranking. His name is Hei Wu, and his identity is the current guardian of the mountain sect of Luo Jiao."
"The Protector of the Mountain Gate of the Luo Sect?" Ye Zhong frowned: "Why did the Protector of the Mountain Gate of the Luo Sect come to our Bianliang?"
"Hei Wu has disappeared since he succeeded in assassinating the Shaolin monk Kong Wu a few months ago. Some people say that he and Kong Wu have died together. But not long after, the Beehive was discharged from the Jianghu list, and Heiwu jumped to the 41st place on the Jianghu list. Since the launch of the list, he is the first person to enter the top 50 just after being on the list, and many people believe that Hei Wu’s ranking is seriously underestimated, and he is at least in the top 30 on the Jianghu list.”
Ye Zhong said calmly: "You didn't explain to me why he appeared in Bianliang and was not with this person."
Ye Zhong's only lingering fear now is that if Hei Wu hadn't been called to stop him just now, then if Hei Wu took action, would his arrangement in the lake pavilion be able to stop a master of Hei Wu's level?
Judging from Ye Chong's own judgment, he absolutely couldn't stop him.
How could this not make Ye Chongxin frightened?
"A few days ago, Hei Wu reappeared in Luo City, and there were rumors that Hei Wu had joined the hive." The unknown woman said.
Ye Zhong was in disbelief: "Beehive?"
"How can it be?"
"How can someone from the Luo religion join the hive?"
Ye Zhong's surprise was not justified, because although the Beehive was a gray organization, the Beehive was not an evil sect that was hated by everyone in the world. On the contrary, as a local force in the Central Plains and an all-inclusive existence, the Beehive not only He has a close relationship with the seven famous sects, and in turn, has quite a hostile relationship with the demonic sects in the Western Regions.
After all, the Hive is an organization that undertakes a large number of missions to assassinate the remnants of the Demon Cult, and it can also be regarded as a powerful firewall to restrain the spread of Western Region forces to the Central Plains.
And such an organization would actually accept the Mountain Gate Protector from the Luo Sect of the Western Regions?
This is a bit unbelievable.
"This is news from inside the hive." The woman said calmly: "For this matter, the hive just held a highest-level meeting in Bianliang not long ago. The owner should have heard about it."
"I see." Ye Zhong nodded: "If a character like Heiwu can join the hive, it will be worth it even if he endures some criticism."
Saying this, Ye Zhong continued: "So, what role does this Fang Bie play?"
"Is he from the hive?"
"Exactly," the woman said, "If my subordinate's information is correct, he should be the Iron Bee Bee Stinger from Luo City, but I don't know why he came to Bianliang City."
"What will happen to an iron bee and a sting?" Ye Zhong said contemptuously.
But he heard the woman continue to say coldly: "His master, if the information is correct."
"It should be He Ping."
"What!" Ye Chong could no longer maintain his composure, and the book in his hand was torn into two halves.
"Which He Ping?"
"The He Ping that the master knows." the woman said quietly.
