Chapter 120 Upstart
The third update! Please give me a monthly ticket!)
The young woman looked twenty-three and four years old, and she was the Zhong Lan whom the leader of Ciyun Sect, Zhong Kui, just called out. Among the disciples of the same age of Ciyun Sect, the highest martial arts cultivation level, has reached the second level of Earth Yuan level. Moreover, she also has an extremely powerful Earth Yuan level top-grade magic weapon, Ciyun Silicon Crystal Sword.
The Ciyun Silicon Crystal Sword is made of an ancient silicon crystal salvaged from the Ciyun Lengxi. Its hardness is comparable to that of the Thousand Refined Shenming Iron. However, as a magic weapon, the absorption and accommodation of the talisman is much higher than that of the iron-making magic weapon, and the space of the instrument is very large. During the process of making this Ciyun Silicon Crystal Sword, a ancestor of the Ciyun Sect personally quenched blood. A large number of prohibited formations were sealed into the sword's body, which could easily break the protective energy of the Earth Yuan-level warrior. With a little sacrifice and refining, it could release extremely powerful attack moves.
Zhong Lan showed unusual martial arts talent when she was very young. No one among the disciples of the same age could match her. A few months ago, the sect's inner martial arts competition easily won the first place. Several of the most respected masters in the sect unanimously discussed and decided to award this sword to her as a reward.
Zhong Lan has always been very successful. Although she is twenty-three years old this year, she has a natural beauty and has many pursuers inside and outside the sect. She has been proposing marriages from nobles to masters of the martial arts sect. However, she has always been as virtuous as jade, focusing on martial arts, and has no distractions. This is also deeply loved by the sect's subordinates and teachers.
Zhong Lan is the younger sister of Zhong Yun, the wife of Yunyang in the Xu Mansion of Xingguo Marquis. She was practicing swordsmanship just now, and received a letter from Zhou Sheng who came from Zhong Yun tone, and wrote down all the things that happened to the Xu family in the letter. The letter also said that Tang Xiao would arrive in Hualien City soon. If this little beast is not eliminated, the Xu family and Ciyun Sect will be destroyed in his hands in the future.
After reading the letter, Zhong Lan was furious and immediately asked the sect leader Zhong Kui to kill the Tang family's child. So the sect leader Zhong Kui urgently called the elders in the sect to discuss the matter together. As the sect leader of the Ciyun Sect, Zhong Kui knew about the Xu family in the capital, so he did not question the content of the letter.
"The Sect Master doesn't need to say anything more. I just want to do this in person." Zhong Lan's mouth curled slightly, her beautiful face was already a little distorted, and she showed an extremely vicious expression: "I want to see how capable this little beast is, and can kill Li Yan and harm my sister to such an extent."
"Since that's the case, I won't advise you." Zhong Kui nodded: "Dissolve him as soon as possible and go back. In a few days, the eldest prince will come to Ciyun Sect and call you to see you. By the way, Lan'er, although our Ciyun Sect is not afraid of the Tang family of the Marquis of the State, since we have to do it, try not to leave any handle for them."
"That's natural. I will completely refine the body of this little beast, seal the soul into the magic weapon and burn it day and night, so that everything will die without evidence." After responding, Zhong Lan took out the Ciyun Si Crystal Sword in his hand, threw it into the sky, and turned into a crystal-like transparent talisman and shot into the Ciyun Sword. The man and sword merged together and shot towards the foot of Ciyun Mountain in an instant.
...
When he woke up the next morning, Tang Xiao didn't look for King Lan everywhere, but only saw Princess Yilan picking flowers in the yard from afar. As soon as he saw Tang Xiao coming, Princess Yilan turned around and ran away, but Tang Xiao was already guarding her, so a talisman flew over and easily captured her back.
"What are you doing?" Princess Yilan was so scared that her face was pale and asked Tang Xiao loudly. Her four guards just stood far away and did not dare to approach.
"Where is your father?" Tang Xiao put Princess Yilan back on the ground.
"Last night, the Emperor of Human Resources came and ordered the emperor. My father went to Taijing City. He was anxious and you were sleeping to death. You didn't have time to tell you." Princess Yilan answered Tang Xiao, and then secretly retreated step by step to the distance.
"Oh...so that..." Tang Xiao nodded: "Okay, I'll go directly to Hualien City in a few days. If King Lan hasn't returned yet, you can say to him for me and thank him for his entertainment."
Tang Xiao turned around and walked away a few steps, and Princess Yilan called him again behind him.
"What's the matter?" Tang Xiao turned around.
Princess Yilan stepped forward two steps, hesitated for a while, and spoke to Tang Xiao: "The people of Shayang Sect know that you are going to Hualien, so they set up an ambush on the road, so you'd better be careful."
"Oh? Why have you become so concerned about your husband?" Tang Xiao looked at Princess Yilan with a smile. He could guess the fact that the people from Shalan Sect ambush him without the reminder of Princess Yilan.
"Bah, go to death." Princess Yilan's face turned red, and she turned around and ran away.
When Tang Xiao returned to his guest room, he was stopped by Mr. Zhao Da, the butler of the Lan Prince's Mansion, and said that King Lan had prepared four guards for him, all of whom were masters of the fifth level of the human Yuan level and could send him to the camp of Fenglin Town. After thinking about it, Tang Xiao refused Lan Prince's kindness. It was probably not too calm that the past was over. If there were too many people, the goal would be too large, so it would be inconvenient to move.
There is another reason. In Tang Xiao's eyes, several warriors of the fifth-level human Yuan level are no longer considered masters. If something really happens, I don't know who will protect whom.
Tang Xiao was planning to stay in Yilan City for a few more days, mainly to recover Liu Ting's injuries. He went south and went more places to go. Before leaving, Tang Xiao had to surf around Yilan City. He knew that Liu Ting was chasing him now, and if anyone else wanted to kill him, he would definitely leave some clues in Yilan City.
Tang Xiao learned disguise in his previous life, but it was not as magical as in martial arts novels. It was mainly because he used makeup to make others unable to recognize him.
When he left Taijing City, Tang Xiao had already bought enough materials for disguise and corresponding clothes. In a short while, Tang Xiao dressed himself up as a middle-aged merchant, still the same kind of a thug, with silk and satin, gold and silver, a beard on his face, a big black mole on his face, and a few black hairs on the mole. This ugly look, even if the maid Mengyu and Mrs. Xingdu saw him, they might not be able to recognize him.
In order to avoid more verbal talk in the Lan Palace, Tang Xiao transformed into a blue sword energy and rushed out of the Lan Palace in an instant. He transformed into a secluded path outside the Lan Palace, fell on the ground and walked out. He was already the atrocity merchant.
Tang Xiao wandered around Yilan City for a long time. He was hungry at noon and didn't want to go back to Lanwang Mansion, so he went to the most famous Lan Kwai Fong Restaurant in Yilan City and prepared to try Yilan City's special snacks. Lan Kwai Fong Restaurant was built in the center of Yilan City. The restaurant is very large and the business is quite good.
As soon as Tang Xiao entered the restaurant, a friend came up to continue. When he saw Tang Xiao's brocade clothes, he knew that he was a rich and ruthless household. He did not dare to neglect at all. He bent down and invited Tang Xiao in. The sound of drinking and punching in the lobby on the first floor was extremely noisy. The man led Tang Xiao to the third floor. The third floor of Lan Kwai Fong was much more peaceful and elegant. The entire third floor was separated by a screen to make many elegant rooms next to the window, and you can see the street view of Yilan with red flowers and green willows.
"Customer, are you waiting for your friends? How many people are there in total?" The guy asked Tang Xiao while quickly leading him to sit down.
"Just me."
"You are the only one in such a big private room?" The guy looked at Tang Xiao with some surprise.
"No?" Tang Xiao frowned.
"Haha, what kind of dishes do you want to order?" The guy observed his expression and did not dare to bump into Tang Xiao with words.
"What are some special snacks? Let me introduce them." Tang Xiao was too lazy to order them by himself, so he threw a piece of silver to tip the guy.
The guy immediately smiled, knowing that although Tang Xiao's a big gangster was dominating a big table, he was not stingy when he took action, and his attitude of talking to Tang Xiao was even more respectful than before.
"Is the first time I'm visiting Yilan City? The most famous delicacies here include urn kiln chicken, duck adornment, cake residue, taro paste, Xilu meat, liver flower, date cake, beef tongue cake, Yilan cake, golden dates, peanut candy, and various candied fruits..." The guy told Tang Xiao as he knew everything.
"I heard that the cake crumbs here are very famous, what are they made of?" Tang Xiao heard Mengyu mention the cake crumbs in Yilan City several times, saying that when he returns to Taijing City next time, if he passes by Yilan City, he will take some back to the mansion for the little girls to taste. So Tang Xiao asked the friend specifically.
"Hello, please be careful. The cake residue is indeed the most unique snack here. It is made of chicken, pork and shrimp, and then chopped into a paste, add the broth that has been boiled for most of the day and cooked into a slurry, pour it into a plate to cool, solidify, then cut into pieces, and fry it in powder and fry... The cake residue looks warm on the outside, but it tastes a bit hot, just like our Yilan people's personality of cold on the outside and hot on the inside."
"Is it cold on the outside and hot on the inside? I think you are very enthusiastic inside and outside." Tang Xiao smiled: "Put on one of the delicacies you just mentioned, I'll try them all, add the delicious ones."
"Please one serving each? Our dishes are very large, and you can't finish them alone." The guy reminded Tang Xiao.
"Then let's make a bet. If I finish all the things you brought, you will beg for this meal. If I can't finish it, how about paying you ten times the meal?" Tang Xiao looked at the guy with a smile.
"You are joking, you're talking, how dare I bet with you? I'll serve you food now." The guy smiled and bowed and exited the screen.
