Infinite Cafetaria Chapter 394

Chapter 394 Shocking Case

The middle-aged scribe called himself Han Guangzhong and was very talkative. Along the way, he and Malu chatted a lot about the customs and customs of Qingzhou.

He has a wide range of interests, ranging from music, chess, calligraphy and painting, to Cuju, donkey ball and ball. He can speak clearly and clearly, and even knows many anecdotes in the martial arts world.

Malu also took this opportunity to ask him some questions, including the source of ingredients for this plane that he was most concerned about at the moment.

After all, he can't be so lucky every time. He encounters a **** agency escorting medicinal materials, and then everyone dies for taking advantage of him.

"Hey, you're a man of the world, don't you even know where the secret medicine comes from?"

Han Guangzhong looked at Malu with an increasingly strange look, "That's all, I have nothing to do, so I'll talk to you.

"Our Daqian Dynasty has a vast land and rich resources. There are secret medicines growing in many mountains and rivers. If you are lucky, you can find them. There are many extremely rare species among them. One plant can be worth ten thousand taels of silver.

"Every once in a while, there will be such a lucky person who gets rich overnight with the help of a secret medicine. From then on, he buys land and has no worries about food and clothing. There are also some people who go to the remote mountains and forests that are inaccessible, regardless of the poisonous beasts. Just to find the precious secret medicine.

"These people are generally called medicine seekers. Most of the medicine seekers are desperadoes. They not only have to fight against the sky, but also against people. Every time a priceless secret medicine appears, there are often many hidden things behind it. human life.”

After hearing this, the monk who was immersed in chanting sutras also clasped his hands and said Amitabha.

Han Guangzhong continued, "However, the secret medicine in the wild is scarce after all, and it is far from meeting the needs of people in the martial arts practice. Moreover, these martial arts masters are already very busy practicing and playing cards every day, and most people have no time to go there. Drill into the mountains.

"So someone tried to grow these secret medicines on his own, but after success, he inevitably attracted the covetousness of others, so he opened the gates of the mountain, recruited disciples, and protected the secret medicines. This is the origin of the martial arts sect.

"Nowadays, forces of all sizes in the world basically cultivate secret medicines. In addition to satisfying the daily practice of their disciples, the excess can be sold or exchanged for other needed secret medicines.

"And those famous sects and martial arts families often occupy famous mountains and rivers in order to cultivate secret medicines, and they also have rare secret medicines in their hands that match their martial arts practice.

"In this way, even if the sect's martial arts is accidentally leaked, without the corresponding secret medicine, other people will not be able to practice it if they get the martial arts secret book."

"Well, in addition to the two sources I mentioned above, the countries in the Western Regions also have some unique secret medicines, which are brought to the Central Plains by caravans and sold, which is an important source of income for them.

"As for those small sects that don't have sects and can't grow secret medicines, if they want to practice, they can only use money to buy the secret medicines grown by those big sects. For example, Baicao Sect is a sect that specializes in the secret medicine business.

"Their drug stores are located all over Daqian. They both buy and sell secret medicines. The prices are fairly fair, but the secret medicine itself is extremely valuable. The cheapest secret medicine plant costs hundreds of coins, which is not something ordinary people can afford. ”

After listening to Han Guangzhong talk about the secret medicine, Ma Lu asked him about Tianlongmen again.

"Tianlongmen is a new sect that suddenly appeared in Qingzhou Wulin in recent years. It has developed rapidly. In less than ten years, it has tens of thousands of followers.

"The sect leader Li Tianlong is good at martial arts. It is said that he once played cards with Director Song of the Zhengqi Academy. The two of them could not win or lose, and they became friends because of it.

"But his origin is quite mysterious. Normally, the dragon rarely shows his true identity even in front of the gang members in the sect. Only one person in the world knows his identity."

Han Guangzhong paused, "Also, I heard that the people from the Beggar Clan don't seem to be able to deal with the Tianlong Sect very well."

"Why?"

"Li Tianlong founded the Tianlong Sect, regardless of origin or past, and recruited a large group of martial arts heroes. It was inevitable that there was a mixture of good and bad among them, and there were many conflicts with the disciples of the Beggar Clan. In addition, although the power of the Beggar Clan spreads all over the world, Qingzhou is where the chief helm is. .

"Now that another person suddenly appeared on the side of the bed, it was inevitable that I would feel unhappy. Fortunately, the former gang leaders Deng Youtai and Li Tianlong were very restrained and restrained their disciples, so there was no conflict. "However, now Deng Youtai has already Death, but the new gang leader doesn't know how he plans to treat Li Tianlong and his Tianlong Gang. The Qingzhou Wulin may not be peaceful again. "

Han Guangzhong sighed, but soon changed the topic and smiled, "But this kind of thing has nothing to do with us ordinary people, but you, Ma Shaoxia, don't get involved in the fight between these two gangs in Yuchang County." among.”

"Thank you, Brother Han, for the reminder." Ma Lu thanked him, and the two chatted casually for a while.

Seeing that he was about to arrive outside Yuchang County, Han Guangzhong suddenly felt inspired, got off the car early, and ran to pay his respects to a nearby historical site.

Ma Lu successfully arrived at the south gate with the caravan, got off the carriage, and took back his pack horse, but did not see Gu Qingyi's shadow.

Just when Ma Lu was wondering if Gu Qingyi had encountered any accident, he found someone in the crowd peeking at him furtively.

It was a kid of about twelve or thirteen years old, who looked quite smart. When he saw Malu looking over, he first lowered his head, then raised his head, then lowered his head again and rubbed his eyes.

When he looked up again, Malu had already arrived in front of him and said to him, "What are you looking at? Let me take a look too."

Before the child could answer, Ma Lu had already snatched the piece of paper from his hand.

There was a drawing of a little man riding a horse and holding a sword. With just a few strokes, a man and a horse appeared on the paper, but the face of the man on the horse was very similar to Malu.

"Who gave you this painting?" Ma Lu asked the child.

However, the child did not answer and asked instead, "Is it Mr. Ma?"

"Yes, it's me."

Hearing his answer, the young man breathed a sigh of relief, "Someone hired me to wait for you here. Come with me, Ma Shaoxia."

"Wait a minute," Ma Lu didn't go with him, "Who hired you and what's his name?"

"This...I don't know either." The boy said, "He just said he was your friend and had an appointment with you at the south gate."

After hearing the second half of the sentence, Ma Lu knew that the person who sent this child must be Gu Qingyi.

I just don't know why she is so mysterious. Maybe she met some enemies in the city.

Malu was thinking as he and the boy walked towards Zuiyan Tower. The latter led him to the door and disappeared again.

Then Ma Lu revealed his identity, and the waiter of his own restaurant led him to a private seat on the second floor.

When Ma Lu walked in, he saw Gu Qingyi sitting by the window, but now she had changed her clothes and looked like a rich country squire, with a few strands of beard stuck to her chin.

But she was still very happy after seeing Malu, "Brother Ma, have you finished your work?"
