Chapter 421 A gathering of experts
Wu Qianhuan and Wenrou looked at each other, both of them felt something was wrong. Wu Qianhuan was surprised:
"Why didn't you say so earlier?
"The reason you decided to live here is because he knows martial arts?"

"No."

Chu Qing shook his head:

“When I decided to live here, I didn’t realize he had any martial arts skills. It was only when I talked to him later that I realized something was wrong.

“There are many untrue things in his words, but most of them don’t need to be taken seriously, they are just nonsense spoken out of jealousy.

"But his background should not be simple. At least he is definitely not from Xiaohewan."

He did not use the method of changing the sky and striking the earth to check the actual situation, nor was there any need to do so.

It just happened to happen, there's no need to get to the bottom of it.

Anyway, they should leave after the meeting at Wanbao Tower ends in two days.

Wu Qianhuan understood what Chu Qing was thinking, so she smiled and said:

"Everyone has their own secrets, but since we just met by chance, there's really no need to get to the bottom of it."

Chu Qing and the others did not discuss much about this family.

After chatting for a while, we prepared to go out for a walk.

The river bay is very beautiful in this season, with peach blossoms everywhere and houses dotted with fireworks, making it look like a paradise.

This is only because I don’t have a mobile phone, otherwise any random photos I take would turn out great.

Not many people know the news about Wanbao Tower. Although there are some familiar faces in Xiaohewan, it is not to the point where there are martial artists carrying weapons everywhere.

But Chu Qing didn't expect that it would be so easy to see someone he knew.

"Big brother!"

Huangfu Yixiao, dressed in fluttering white clothes and with an aloof look on his face, suddenly jumped high and waved to Chu Qing.

While Chu Qing was stunned for a moment, this person came to him:
"Brother, long time no see."

“…It doesn’t seem like it’s been that long.”

Chu Qing thought about it carefully, they have been separated for only half a month, right?
"Mr. Huangfu, why are you here?"

Wu Qianhuan asked in a low voice.

Huangfu Yixiao winked at Chu Qing and said:
“Of course it’s because of Wanbao Tower!

"I've heard that you can buy anything in Wanbaolou. I've wanted to buy something for a long time, but I don't know if Wanbaolou is worthy of its name."

"what do you want to buy?"

Chu Qing was a little curious: "Isn't it the whereabouts of the monk?"

"That thief baldy isn't worth all my trouble."

Huangfu smiled with a proud look on his face.

Chu Qing's face darkened:
"So, you're planning on making me go through a lot of trouble?"

"...No, no, don't misunderstand me, didn't I say something wrong?"

Huangfu Yixiao grinned and said:
“But the thing I want to buy is probably hard to find.

“Even Wanbaolou may not be able to do it.

"Brother, I've made up my mind. If Wanbaolou doesn't have what I want to buy, then it's not worthy of its reputation. What does it mean to be not worthy of its reputation? It means it's a liar!

"Then I will burn down his Wanbao Building to prevent it from bringing harm to the world."

Chu Qing nodded repeatedly:

"Your idea is very creative, and I support you, but can you please pretend not to know me while you are doing all this?

"I'm worried that people will misunderstand that we are in the same group, and when they beat you up, they'll beat me up too."

"What are you afraid of?"

Huangfu Yixiao said excitedly:

"It's just right. You and I, brothers, are joining forces again. A mere treasure house is ridiculous."

Chu Qing had no interest in going crazy with him, so she found an excuse to run away.

But Huangfu Yixiao is very clingy, especially after meeting Chu Qing. It's like meeting an old friend in a foreign land. He follows behind like a tail and can't be shaken off.

Chu Qing was too lazy to argue, so if he wanted to follow her, then he could follow her.

But when Chu Qing and his friends arrived at a famous local restaurant, seeing Huangfu Yixiao sitting down leisurely, Chu Qing reminded him:
"You order what you want to eat and pay the bill yourself when the time comes."

"...Brother, why are we so distant from each other?"

"Don't make a fuss. We only met once. Besides, brothers have to settle accounts clearly. You and I are not that close."

Chu Qing rolled his eyes and called the waiter to order some food and wine.

Huangfu Yixiao looked aggrieved:
"If my father knew that I was hated by everyone and dogs outside, I don't know how he would feel."

"He would probably feel that his parenting style must have failed, as he actually raised such a son."

"Wow, big brother, you know that words can cause trouble. If my father hears this, be careful that he will come to challenge you to a duel."

Huangfu Yixiao's emotions came and went quickly. Seeing that the waiter was about to leave after Wu Qianhuan ordered a few dishes, he hurriedly grabbed him and said a few more things he wanted to eat, but they were basically the same as what Chu Qing and the others ordered.

The waiter was confused. They clearly came together, so why did they order two tables of food?

But if you don't make money, you're a bastard. Why would the second brother care about that? He immediately agreed and turned away.

Chu Qing glanced around the restaurant. There were not many people there, and they were all sitting at tables eating. Their expressions were somewhat indifferent.

Moreover, these people have extraordinary temperaments, but they are also extremely introverted.

Just like an ordinary person...

After Chu Qing withdrew his gaze from the old man, he heard Huangfu Yixiao say in his ear:

"The old man you are looking at is nicknamed 'Beijian Tianweng' and is the owner of Beijian Mountain.

"The so-called Southern Blade and Northern Sword are very famous in the martial arts world. But you are so young, you probably haven't heard of him... After all, he is not from your Southern Region."

Not from the Southern Region...

Chu Qing suddenly realized that Wanbao Tower was extraordinary and every time it appeared in the world it was a grand event.

It is inevitable that people from all over the world will come to attend the conference in order to achieve their own goals.

It seems that I will be able to meet many masters during this trip to Wanbao Tower.

Huangfu Yixiao was a well-informed man, and he gave Chu Qing some casual advice, letting Chu Qing know that there were several masters in this small inn.

In addition to Beijian Tianweng among the Southern Sword and Northern Sword, there is also Qianliu Gongzi from the Northern Territory. This man is only about 30 years old this year, but his martial arts skills have already ranked him among the top in the world.

And what Huangfu Yixiao called the best is probably not simple at all.

However, what Chu Qing cared about most was the holy monk Kashyapa from the Great Xumi Zen Temple in the Western Regions.

Huangfu Yixiao said that this person claimed to be the reincarnation of Buddha and it was his eighth reincarnation.

Moreover, the Great Sumeru Monastery is really very knowledgeable. Although the reincarnated Buddha had no cultivation when he was born, he was born with an understanding of Buddhist principles, and his Buddhist teachings were extremely profound and wise.

By matching the clues left by the previous living Buddha before his death, the reincarnation can be easily found.

After being led into the Great Sumeru Temple, one will be awakened by a wake-up call to his past and present lives. All the Buddhist supernatural powers cultivated in past lives will return and be added to one person's body.

Overnight, one can transform from a person who knows nothing about martial arts into a peerless master who dominates the world.

When the two people were talking about this person, Jiashe was moved. He looked up at Chu Qing and Huangfu Yixiao, then smiled slightly, nodded at Chu Qing, and then continued to lower his head... drinking and eating meat!
Chu Qing smacked his lips. Buddhism has its own precepts, but this reincarnated living Buddha didn't seem to intend to abide by them.

Instead, wine and meat pass through the intestines, but remain in the Buddha's heart?
I was just thinking about how unrestrained this person was when I heard a thump thump thump sound and another group of people came up the stairs. There were four people coming up.

But it combines the four characteristics of tall, short, fat and thin.

Huangfu Yixiao raised his eyebrows slightly:

“They really came.”

"who are they?"

Chu Qing took a quick look and realized that he really didn't recognize her.

Huangfu smiled and thought for a moment and said:
“It’s a little hard to explain their origins.

“Let me put it this way, big brother, you also know that the four regions and one state in the world are all under the command of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

“But that’s what it means to most people…

“Among them, there are always some people who are hard to explain, with great martial arts skills and who refuse to obey discipline. Even the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors can’t do anything about them.

“After all, they are neutral in the martial arts world, neither doing evil nor bullying others. We can’t just go up and kill them all just because they don’t listen to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, right?

“That would be a demonic path, wouldn’t it?

“Looking across the world, there is one such place in each of the four regions and one state.

"In the south there is the Bodhi Temple, in the north there is the Sword-Questioning House, in the west there is the Creation Courtyard, and in the east there is the Fish and Insect Valley.

"As for Zhongzhou, it is the first one!
“These five families each have their own origins, and none of them are simple.

"These four people are from the First Path of Zhongzhou."

Chu Qing frowned slightly. He didn't know about other places, but he knew about the Bodhi Temple in the Southern Region.

The two sisters Nianxin and Nian'an, who are traveling around the world in the contemporary Bodhi Temple, have already worshipped him as their boss and vowed to unify the underworld.

But come to think of it, a long time has passed since they were thrown into the Fiery Hall by me, and I don’t know how much of their unification mission they have accomplished?

I had asked Beitang Zun at that time to cooperate with the two sisters and have a good time.

But after that, I kept moving forward without stopping for a moment.

I almost forgot about these two girls.

Huangfu Yixiao didn't know that Chu Qing's thoughts were drifting away, and continued to speak:
"The so-called first way is the first way since the creation of the world. They claim to be studying the best method in the world...

“It’s just that these people are doing research behind closed doors, not bothering anyone.

"For many years, everything was peaceful... but I don't know what happened, probably more than ten years ago... I don't remember how long ago it was, but it must have been at least ten years ago.

"The people from the first sect suddenly rushed out from the mountain gate and wandered around the arena, as if they were looking for someone.

“There are not many sects in Zhongzhou, so they went to each sect one by one. If they were not allowed to enter, they would fight… After they won the fight, they would not kill them, but would rush in and rummage around, turning the sect’s house upside down, and then leave.

“It was my father who stepped in to stop this chaos.

“That’s how I learned… their Dao Master was missing.”

"What?"

Chu Qing thought he had heard wrongly:
"What do you mean lost? Kidnapped?"

"...The First Dao caused a mess, and even my father had to step in personally to resolve it. How many people do you think can kidnap their Dao master from their airtight mountain gate?"

Huangfu smiled and smacked his lips:
“In the end, the person is gone.

“There is no trace at all… No, there are some traces. In the room where their Taoist master was in seclusion, there was a pool of blood.

"But I can't explain it. Was it the Taoist Master who caused the blood himself, or was it someone who harmed him...

"If there was any harm, there would be traces of it, but there are no traces at all.

“This matter is extremely weird and bizarre.

“More importantly, they were somehow certain that their Taoist master was not dead.

“Although my father suppressed the matter at the time, he did not stop looking for the Taoist master.

"They probably came to Wanbao Tower this time just to try their luck and see if they can find any clues about their Taoist master."

Chu Qing was also amazed when he heard it.

He was not surprised that the First Daoist would go out to look for the Daoist Master, nor did he care how the Daoist Master suddenly disappeared.

What surprised him was that more than ten years had passed since the incident, and they were still looking for it and had not yet appointed a new Taoist leader.

As the saying goes, a snake cannot survive without a head. They have been leaderless for so long, yet they are still striving for their goal. It sounds like this sect is quite united.

They did not fall apart because of the loss of their Taoist master, nor did they fight for the position of Taoist master.

On the contrary, it is really interesting to go out and look for it with all your heart.

With Huangfu Yixiao explaining everything at the side, the meal was quite enjoyable.

Huangfu Yixiao was very happy when he was eating, but he was not very happy when he was paying, mainly because he was short of money.

He shamelessly asked Chu Qing to borrow money. Chu Qing was very happy because he had learned a lot today. He waved his hand and asked the store owner for pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and asked Huangfu Yixiao to write an IOU.

Huangfu Yixiao was stunned:
"Brother, I just want to borrow some money... This, this is not that serious, right? Can I borrow money and not pay it back?

"My father is Huangfu Changkong!"

"Even if your father is the king of heaven, he still has to write an IOU when he borrows money."

Chu Qing rolled his eyes:
"Of course, you don't have to borrow it."

"……borrow!"

Huangfu Yixiao was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said:

“Since I have borrowed all of them, I will borrow more.

"I want to borrow one thousand taels of silver from you!!"

"Nine out, thirteen back."

Chu Qing said casually.

Huangfu Yixiao almost vomited blood:

"Brother... is it that serious?"

"Brother, you don't understand."

Chu Qing patted his shoulder and said earnestly:

“My money is all hard-earned money, I put my head on the belt and risked my life to earn it.

“This money can be spent or borrowed, but you have to know where to spend it and where to borrow it.

"We can't leave a bad debt unexplained, can we?"

"...Then I'll borrow five thousand taels from you. Do you have it?"

"Write it."

Chu Qing pointed at the paper on the table:

"If you can't afford it later, I'll ask your father for it."

Huangfu Yixiao wrote fiercely on the paper, and finally succeeded in borrowing 4,500 taels.

It was agreed that nine would go out and thirteen would return, so Chu Qing would naturally deduct ten percent.
