Chapter 457 Ghosts and Bandits Worry
In Baidi City, there is a Yanyu Building outside Xingtian Mansion, which was later renamed Yanyu Corridor. After Gu Qingci brought Su Jinniang over, he bought it as a mansion. It is a rare place with pleasant scenery in Baidi City.
Before, Gu Qingci found a random yard and lived here, but after taking his mother back, he moved here. He didn't think about leading by example and putting an end to extravagance. He just wanted to make his mother live more comfortably. The Black Territory was originally a barren land, but this Yanyu Building fits the style of the hinterland of the Central Plains.
In the early morning fog, surrounded by courtyards, Su Jinniang sewed clothes in the courtyard, carefully crafted, raised her head and looked at Qin Keqing in front of her, and said: "Qing Ci's father used to go with someone to guard the darts, every time he walked the darts When he was young, he liked to wear the clothes I sewed for him. It wasn’t that he couldn’t afford it, but he just liked it. He always said that the clothes I sewed were priceless. clothes."
Su Jinniang pinned her hair with a needle, and said with a smile: "Actually, when I was in the teacher's school, where did I learn any needlework, just seeing him happy like a child, I was happy, as long as I was free, I would give it to him." He sews clothes..."
Qin Keqing watched Su Jinniang talking while sewing the clothes, the smile on her face made her tremble a little, and inexplicably appeared in her mind, if one day Gu Qingci wore the clothes she sewed, it would definitely... definitely look good!
But, watching the tiny needle shuttle back and forth, Qin Keqing lowered his head and looked at his hands, feeling a little frustrated.
Su Jinniang said with a smile, "If you want to learn, I can teach you."
Qin Keqing blushed suddenly, and stammered: "I...I..."
At this time, the sound of the piano in the courtyard slowly stopped, and in the pavilion in the distance, Gu Qingci turned his head to look at Su Jinniang and Qin Keqing who were talking, gave Lu Youzang a wink, waved lightly, and walked out .
In the Yanyu corridor, what Gu Qingci appreciates the most is the bamboo forest, which rustles when the wind blows, and is full of greenery when the wind stops. Walking in it, the winding path leads to seclusion, and people feel pure here.
"Has the little stone arrived at the ghost's sorrow? Then the road to the north should also begin." Gu Qingci walked in the bamboo forest, stepped lightly on the bamboo leaves, and said with slow steps: "Don't worry about this matter, you What happened to the plague in Yibin? How will the court deal with it?"
Lu You's long gown hung on the ground, with his hands behind his back, and said: "It's because the earth dragon turned over last time, and there were a lot of people who suffered. Many corpses were not dealt with in time. After they rotted, a plague appeared. The doctor said that the situation is not good, the epidemic cannot be controlled, it has been treated in isolation, but it is still spreading, the imperial court has sent medical officers from the imperial medical office, and Pei Zhu, who is known as the master of Xinglin, has also gone."
"Pei Zhu," Gu Qingci nodded and said, "A person who calls himself Xinglin is crazy, but he is not arrogant. He is indeed a master of medicine. If he can't solve this plague, there will be few people in the world."
Gu Qingci knew Pei Zhu. Back then in Jizhou, he was not well-known. He met Liu Yiqing by accident, and indirectly met this master of medicine from Langya Sword Sect. It's different, I left Langya Sword Sect for many years and never went back, but I didn't say I would quit Langya Sword Sect.
As for Pei Zhu's medical skills, Gu Qingci still has some understanding, and it is indeed very high. When the Yinshan sect lived in Jizhou, the strong and abnormal corpse poison was like a joke in Pei Zhu's hands.
Pei Zhu's reputation is also great. Over the years, he has been hanging pots to help the world, and his temper is not bad. Many people in the rivers and lakes owe him favors. Even when Chen Tongxuan was poisoned by Dong's family, it was Pei Zhu who went to treat him and alleviate the pain. Toxins spread.
Even a scholar like Lu Youjiang had heard about Pei Zhu, so he nodded and said "yes".
"Well," Gu Qingci asked again: "How is the situation in Cangzhou?"
Lu Youjiang said: "There is the old Marshal Chu Zixu leading the army, and he has recovered most of Cangzhou. In addition, there is also news from over there. I hope you can speed up the progress here. The old Marshal Chu is too strong. You don't even have the strength to resist, and if you deliberately stand still in order to wait for the small stone, it will be unreasonable."
Gu Qingci bowed his head and pondered for a while, then said: "Old Marshal Chu is indeed worthy of the name of God of War. It seems that I have to go there myself."
...
Out of Qingzhou, across Qingyang, is the boundary of Cangzhou.
Between Qingzhou and Qingyang, the shortcut needs to pass through Laoshan Mountain. This Laoshan Mountain is steep, uniquely blessed, and located on the border. It has always been a place for martial arts sects to compete for. Some green forest bandits.
However, because of the imperial court, very few dared to go down the mountain to plunder, most of them seized various intersections, charged customs clearance fees, and some used the high mountains to do some smuggling activities. It is indeed a mixed place with a lot of bandits.
Over time, this area was called "Ghost Seeing Sorrow" by businessmen coming and going!
On this place, there is the largest bandit stronghold, called Changfeng Stronghold, with a population of seven to eight hundred people. The owner of the stronghold, known as the dead grass, is a great practitioner. Speaking of whether it is means or strength, in just two or three years, he built Changfengzhai in Guijianchou, and formulated the rules of Guijianchou. After changing the chaos at the beginning, he was later recruited by many "martial arts sects" in Laoshan. Respected as a leader!
One day, Ding Yun, the young master of Changfeng Village, ran back to Changfeng Village happily, found his father, Ding Song, the leader of Lushan Mountain, and said, "Father, I found out that there is a vote recently. It is said that It was a son of a rich family who went out to do business and died, with thousands of taels of gold tickets, many treasures, and a 3,000-year-old ginseng king, if you get this ginseng king, you will be able to break through the bottleneck that you have been struggling for many years!"
Ding Song, who was lying on the teacher's chair, suddenly opened his eyes, stood up abruptly, stared at Ding Yun, and said angrily: "Didn't I tell you that I don't want to do anything these days, be honest Stay in the cottage for me, you won't send someone there!"
Ding Yun didn't expect that this old man would suddenly get angry, and he said aggrievedly: "Father, am I thinking of you? Besides, I have already investigated clearly, this is an ordinary merchant with no big background, it's okay, your boss Just wait, at this moment, I am afraid I have succeeded, and then..."
Ding Song listened to his son's words, the corners of his mouth twitched, his face turned pale, he slumped down on the chair, took a long breath, and said, "It's over!"
