Tianlong Bang Jinkou Fenduo Medicine Refining Hall is famous for preparing snake medicine. There is a "snake farm" outside the city and a "snake house" inside the city. In addition to collecting snake venom and preparing medicine, it also opened a restaurant where snake meat is used as food. It is said that it can nourish It improves appearance, removes bad diseases, strengthens yang energy, and the business is really good.
There are many venomous snakes collected in the "Snake Room", including Gelsemium snakes, wire snakes, earth snakes, mountain wind snakes, bungar snakes, green bamboo leaves, spearhead vipers, and ironheads. Seven or eight of the most poisonous snakes, Wei Shiqi After trying them one by one, the snake venom was swallowed up by the blood in an instant, and the energy returned was very little, far from being comparable to the spiritual hundred-year-old Gelsemium snake before.
Jinkou is an important place for transportation from south to north, with dense crowds of people, bustling markets, and few monsters. It is difficult to find century-old Gelsemium snakes. Feeding the blood with snake venom is better than nothing. To repair the body as soon as possible, we must find another way. If the physical body is not perfect, many cultivation methods cannot be used, and there is no way to go through the butcher gate and chew it.
In addition, Wei Shiqi also spent a lot of thought on another matter.
It has to be said that Yang Hu gave birth to a good man, with a body as tall and loose, a face as jade, a nose as gallbladder, and eyes as morning stars. He was a handsome young man. Guo Chuanlin was similar in stature to him, but his temperament was completely different. He He was a rebel, he had killed people, raided the city, crawled out from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, unable to conceal his ferocity. Like two clear and turbid rivers, the two met at Luoyan Peak in Huashan Mountain, and then went their separate ways. The world is prone to change, luck is unpredictable, and they met by chance. Guo Chuanlin became haggard and thin, while Yang Huze added many vicissitudes of life.
Wei Shiqi had a photographic memory and recalled Yang Hu's appearance before his death, the corners of his eyes and brows, his speech and behavior, and he modified it a little bit every day. In just half a moon, the scene was 78% similar to Yang Hu's, enough to hide it. Even if someone close to him has preconceived ideas, it is reasonable to think that the sheep guard is being hunted down, sleeping in the open, living in danger, and having his appearance changed.
Compared to Guo Chuanlin, Yang Hu's identity is more useful. Wei Shiqi has no intention of hiding it all the time. When his body recovers, he will no longer have to hide his head and tail. The world is so big that there is no place he can go, be it the demon realm or the fairy city. , sooner or later it will be his hunting ground.
On this day, he returned to the small courtyard, and suddenly he heard someone shouting: "Gelsemium snake!" The voice had a slight southern accent, it was crisp and charming, and it didn't sound like he was calling for help. Wei Shiqi didn't realize it Slow down.
"Gelsemium, hehe, I'm calling you!"
Wei Shiqi followed the sound and saw a girl in a floral shirt sitting on the wall, looking at him with a smile. She wore a pair of red shoes with flowers on her feet, and her heels lightly kicked against the mottled wall.
"What did you call me?"
"Gelsemium snake! Deacon He said that you go to the 'snake room' every day, put your hand into the snake's mouth, and get bitten by it on purpose - is there such a way to practice martial arts in the world?" The girl had bright eyes and a charming smile. Full of youthful vitality.
Wei Shiqi didn't answer her words and asked casually: "Are you from here too? I don't think I've seen you before?"
"My surname is Xia. I just arrived in Jinkou today. You don't know me, but I have heard of your name for a long time!"
Wei Shiqi glanced at her for a few times, then quickly lost interest. With a faint sigh, he walked to the small courtyard with his hands in his sleeves. The girl looked at his back and couldn't help but raise her voice: "My name is Xia Qian. I came here from the main helm to see you. Would you like to talk to me a little more?"
Wei Shiqi waved his hand towards her, and without stopping, he was about to step into the small courtyard. "It's so funny that you ignored me!" Xia Qian frowned, then relaxed his brows and said, "Don't you want to know about the news from the three towns in Hebei?"
"Brotherhood told me personally. I have the patience to wait." Wei Shiqi closed the courtyard door with his backhand, not wanting to waste any time talking to the quirky little girl.
Xia Qian bit her finger and snorted, and said to herself: "Haha, it turns out he knows everything...who talks so much...it's not fun at all..."
"Little Miss..." As soon as Yang Hu left, Gu Boyang came one after another. He was shocked to see the girl sitting high on the wall.
Xia Qian held up her hands, jumped off the wall gently and skillfully, patted the dust off her body, and said, "You are the new apprentice in the alchemy hall, right? I heard Deacon He talking about you."
Gu Boyang hurriedly took half a step back, not daring to look at her face, and said with fists in his hands: "My subordinate, Gu Boyang, has met the young lady. The young lady will last for thousands of years, her youth will last forever, she will enjoy immortal blessings forever, and her life span will be as long as the heavens!"
Xia Qian stuck out her tongue, a little embarrassed, waved her hands and said: "These are just jokes I made when I was a kid. Don't take them seriously. You don't have to be so polite..."
"yes!"
"Well, tell me about that sheep guardian. The more details the better!"
"Yes..." Gu Boyang hesitated for a moment, poured the beans into the bamboo tube, and started talking about the corpse in the grass by the river, exactly as it was, without missing a word. Xia Qian didn't mind being dirty, so she sat down on the stone steps, supported her forehead with her hands, and listened attentively. The image of Yang Hu gradually became clearer in her mind.
When the girl said her last name was "Xia", Wei Shiqi had already guessed her identity.
Xia Quji, the leader of Tianlong Gang, has two sons and one daughter. The eldest son, Xia Heng, was an idiot when he was born. The second son, Xia Yun, was amazingly talented. His martial arts were inherited from his father and he was able to make his own moves. The youngest daughter, Xia Qian, was the proud daughter of heaven and followed Xia Yun all day long. Later, no matter what happens, I have to have a hand in it.
Xia Quji was already old and weak, so he gradually handed over the affairs of the gang to his second son Xia Yun. Therefore, Xia Yun was respectfully called the "Young Gang Leader". He was extremely intelligent, calm and sophisticated, and he managed the Tianlong Gang. The gang prospered and became the largest gang in the south of the Yangtze River.
This time he personally came to Jinkou to take over the helm just to protect the sheep.
At dusk, Wei Shiqi finished his daily homework, and the blood in his heart beat slightly, like a candle in the wind, which would be extinguished at any time. It is difficult for a good woman to make a meal without rice, and she must have the necessary resources to strengthen her vitality. She cannot hang herself from a tree, but must find other ways as soon as possible. While Wei Shiqi was thinking about it, he calmly walked out of the house. The sunset was shining brightly on the horizon. It was still more than an hour before he turned on the lamp. He stood with his hands behind his hands, looking to the west in silence, thinking alone.
There were messy footsteps outside the small courtyard. Gu Boyang came in a hurry and said with a nervous expression: "Mr. Sheep, the young gang leader has invited you!"
Everything was as expected, Wei Shiqi remained calm and followed Gu Boyang to the Waterside Pavilion in the backyard of the Medicine Refining Hall, where he met Xia Yun, the young gang leader who was rumored to be wise and powerful.
Xia Yun is very young, only about 27 or 28 years old. She has a tall figure and a jade tree facing the wind, which makes people fall in love with her at first sight. With a smile on his face, he stood up to greet Wei Shiqi and welcomed Wei Shiqi into the banquet. His speech and behavior were polite and thoughtful, and there was nothing to fault. Wei Shiqi also behaved neither humble nor overbearing, showing off the reserve and demeanor of a member of a noble family.
Accompanying him during the banquet were Hou Jinbiao, the Tianlong Gang's Jinkou branch helmsman, Wu Tong, the Changzhou branch helmsman, Yi Lian and He Yanzi from the medicine refining hall, plus Xia Qian, the youngest daughter of the old gang leader. Hou Jinbiao, Yi Lian and He Yanzi were all insiders and could not hide it. Wu Tong was Xia Yun's confidant and Xia Qian was the one who could not get rid of him. In addition, Xia Yun did not intend to let others get involved prematurely. thing.
News came back from the three towns in Hebei that the Yang family was wiped out and the barbarians invaded. In Xia Yun's view, this was a good opportunity to seize chestnuts from the fire. The barbarians would have to return to the north sooner or later and would not be able to take root in the three towns. He planned to take advantage of it. As Yang Hu, he recruited Yang's old boss and old man to expand the Tianlong Gang's power to the north. If possible, Xia Yun even planned to allocate manpower to build a new branch in Heshuo.
The rest depends on the attitude of the sheep protector himself.
