"Huff …"
"Whew." Wang Lih was breathing heavily on the spot, he had already hit the heavily guarded man on the back.
"Hahaha... Satisfying! This is too refreshing! " The tall and sturdy man laughed, "You little monk, you can actually beat me until my whole body is parched! Not bad, it's really interesting! " After he finished laughing, the burly man took out a folded bounty and handed it to Wang Lih.
"If little brother's strength is a tenth of big brother's, I'm afraid I'd be satisfied." Wang Lih smiled as he received the bounty.
"But Big Brother, I still have to warn you, catching bandits is not an easy matter!" The big guy said seriously, "Hsiang Chuming has not been caught in a trap for many years. He is both powerful and cunning. With fewer people and fewer people, he could still attack together with the gang. With so many people, he could still run and hide in the mountains. He was going to Ox-Head Mountain to search for its stronghold. If he couldn't find it, then so be it. If you find it, be careful. After all, two fists won't be enough to fight four hands. Dozens of bandits attacked together, but it was useless no matter how few he lost. If you really want to capture Hsiang Chuming, you should find more people. "
"Big brother is right, little brother understands." Wang Lih cupped his hands, "Big bro isn't going with little bro?"
The muscular man raised his head to the sky and laughed loudly, then picked up his steel rod and left.
"I already said that I will give you the Bounty Quest, so I won't interfere in this matter." It's up to you to solve the problem yourself! " And then he left.
Wang Lih smiled, turned around and left the alley as well.
However, the burly man was not far away from the city wall. After Wang Lih left, the big man whistled loudly. A moment later, a brown feathered eagle flapped its wings and flew down from the sky. The burly man removed the letter from its leg and took out a brush from his clothes room. After scribbling a letter, he tied it to the eagle's leg and sent it flying.
Wang Lih was walking on the street.
Even though it was already night time, the streets of Luo County were still brightly lit with people walking in and out.
"Although the bounty has fallen into my hands, I still do not have any money left." Wang Lih sighed as he walked, "Do you want to find a job as a supporting pillar and then go off to resolve fate?"
Although he was a monk, he was unwilling to do so.
Wang Lih was a very courageous person. This kind of nature couldn't be changed by his bones.
Every time he was asked to go, he would hide it in his Shaolin Temple and would not be willing to do so.
When he was reading Buddhist scriptures, when he was lecturing on the altar, he had already imparted a lot of knowledge about Buddhism. He would never understand anything related to making himself grovel. Perhaps it was due to his natural instinct, coupled with the fact that he was still young and frivolous. Even after 13 years of knowledge on Buddhism, he had only heard at most 50%.
It was precisely because of this innermost pride that he was more into martial arts than reciting scriptures, meditating, or meditating all day. But when he thought about the past, he still felt mixed emotions.
Keeping the rules, your Six Commandments? That was Zhiyan's problem!
Now, he was Wang Lih! There were no longer any commandments that could restrain him, and he himself would embark on the road of pursuing the martial way and take revenge for his abbot and Shaolin Temple!
"However, at least for now, I still have to think of a way to obtain some silver taels." As Wang Lih strolled, he quickly found a business.
"The trading firm?"
It was a three-storied building called the "Luo Family Trading Company", which was twice the size of the mash restaurant in spring. The door was wide open, and light was shining brightly. Many people were entering and exiting the Luo Family trading firm, and it seemed to be extremely lively. I might as well go in and take a look. " Wang Lih thought and then went inside.
Inside the Luo Family Trading Company.
Indeed, there were people coming and going. There were dozens of people gathered in the spacious main hall. There were wooden counters on both sides and shelves on both sides. There was a wooden sign at the bottom stating the selling price. It seemed that both of them were selling items.
At this place, the goods were truly dazzling, and there were all sorts of strange and wondrous things. Although it was unable to set up large spears, sticks, etc., small weapons such as daggers, short knives, etc., were still not lacking. Apart from the weapons, there were also some books on blue strings and dazzling jewelry. This trip had really broadened his horizons.
"Jadeite Jade Jade … "The Linglong Crown Pearl …"
"Vanadium Iron Dagger …" A steel blade and a steel blade, looks like they're both pretty good. " Wang Lih looked around the counter.
At this moment, Wang Lih raised his head and saw that there seemed to be two large pieces of paper stuck on the wall behind the counter. One of the paper was titled "Sunpierce List".
"Manager, what are these things?" Wang Lih asked curiously.
"Customer, you don't recognize any of these? From the looks of it, you should be a talented disciple. It's also reasonable that you don't know much about the affairs of the world, so this little brother will tell you about it now. " In front of the cabinet, a coarse robed youth laughed and said, "This《 Sunpierce List》 is created by one of the hundreds of sects in the world through Sunyang Sect gathering intelligence, unified planning, and biannual updating, recording the rankings of the strongest experts in the world. From the very beginning to the end, the rankings were publicly recorded, from strong to weak. "
"The strongest in the world?" Wang Lih was shocked, "Is it the entire Black Yi Dynasty?"
"Yes, sir." The assistant replied with a smile.
Wang Lih then looked at The Sunpierce List , he cared a lot about the strong warriors. Sure enough, « Sunpierce List » number one was the "Heaven Devouring Earth" Ren Ziloong that the abbot had mentioned, and the "Ye Xiao Arts" at the back was his ultimate technique. The second and third were Bai Yi, who was crowned with the "White Dragon Movement Technique", and Hei Yi, who was crowned with the "Soul Slaughtering Lonely Shadow Rod". Hei Yi and Bai Yi had been exiled by Ren Ziloong for many years and had no record of fighting. Ren Ziloong had also been in closed-door training for quite a long time. Therefore, the three of them were still at the top of The Sunpierce List .
In his opinion, there must be quite a few experts hidden in the world.
Just that terrifying leader who flattened the entire Yanluan with a single punch was already hard for Wang Lih to imagine. Even the person he had met, Master Fu Chang, would not fall under Bai Yi.
Looks like this《 Sunpierce List》 is also publicly available to the citizens of Black Yi Dynasty, I guess it can only be used to arrange the appearance of supreme experts.
The undercurrents were surging, and experts emerged from the common people. Who knew who was the true most powerful person in the world?
Wang Lih sighed.
"Customer!" The stickers on our wall only recorded the top 20. If you buy this complete version of Sunpierce List, then the lives, secret techniques, sects, and even appearances of the two hundred strong warriors in the future will all be recorded for you. "Only twenty silver for a book..." The salesman began to promote the goods.
"No need." Wang Lih waved his hands in refusal and left the counter.
Wang Lih continued to stroll around the store.
"Hmph, my family's trading company will gather all the merchants in the world and won't reject anyone. How could a beggar be allowed in!? "
"Young master! Don't be angry, I will drive him away. "
Everyone in the great hall turned their heads in the direction of the voice. It was a group of people walking down from the second floor. A group of guards in uniform, dressed in noble attire and carrying Scabbard s on their waists crowded around a tall and slender man with an exquisite face, dressed in gold and silver robes, and holding a folding fan. The person speaking next to him was a little flattering person who was bowing down and bowing down. He should be a good butler. The origins of this group of people must not be simple.
"Young Master Luo!"
"Young Master Luo!"
Everyone in the hall bowed respectfully, so Wang Lih could only show his respect by saluting with his hands cupped together. Young Master Luo waved his folding fan and smiled, "Boss Wan An."
Then, the butler who was attentive to him before came down the stairs and walked in front of Wang Lih. He shouted: "Hey, this is not a place a country bumpkin like you can come to. Get out."
"You mean me?" Wang Lih was still confused, but everyone's gaze had already gathered over.
"Apologies young master, Me will leave now." Wang Lih cupped his hands and turned to leave. He understood that this place was called the Luo Family Trading Company and Young Master Luo would definitely have an overflowing amount of power here. When he had no power or influence, he shouldn't have stood out.
"Hmph, consider yourself sensible!" Young Master Luo snorted and stopped looking at him.
"Ning, son!" Are you putting on airs again? " A burst of muffled and furious roars came from upstairs. Everyone in the room quieted down. Even Young Master Luo and Wang Lih stayed by the door.
At this time, a tall middle-aged man dressed in luxurious clothing quickly walked down from the second floor. Heavy steps, a solemn face, crowned with hair, gold and silver. His figure was as tall and sturdy as the burly man from before, and with every step he took, the aura he gave off seemed to be able to intimidate everyone present. When they reached the first floor, everyone was enlightened and spoke in unison:
"Family Head of Luo Family, Wan'an!"
"Family Head of Luo Family, Wan'an!"
The middle-aged man who was addressed as Family Head of Luo Family immediately came in front of Master Luo, "Pa!" Ye Zichen slapped Young Master Luo. He shouted sternly, "How many times have I told you this? The Luo Family Store was not allowed to kick out any guests! No matter how many times I say it, I will never admit my wrongs! " The atmosphere at the scene was unusually heavy.
"Father, I know I was wrong." The previously arrogant Young Master Luo could only cover his face and accept.
"You know your wrongs! You know your wrongs!" If you do this again, do you think I'll take you away? "Go, go back upstairs!" Family Head of Luo Family said and Young Master Luo went upstairs. Just as Wang Lih was about to leave, Family Head of Luo Family, the middle-aged man with a vigorous aura, said loudly, "Young monk, please wait!"
Wang Lih was shocked, Family Head of Luo Family was calling him?
"Sorry, Family Head of Luo Family. Me was indeed short on money, and coming here was just an eye-opener. As a country bumpkin who doesn't have much money, it's not good for me to stay for long. " Wang Lih turned around and said respectfully.
"No, no, little monk. I have something to discuss with you." I wonder if little monk can come to the second floor? " Family Head of Luo Family was a mighty individual. At this moment, he was actually greeting a thirteen or fourteen year old monk with his hands clasped in front of everyone. The onlookers had a whole new level of respect for him.
However, the power and influence of Luo Family could be said to be overflowing in this Luo Family realm, so it would be too embarrassing for him to refuse.
"Thank you for your good intentions, Clan Head." Wang Lih cupped his hands and said, "Then Me has to obey with respect."
Afterwards, Wang Lih, who was chased out of the trading firm by Young Master Luo, went up to the second floor of the Luo Family Trading Company at Family Head of Luo Family's personal invitation.
The second floor of the trading firm was a large hall with more than ten people seated around it. Some of them had seen the person below, such as Young Master Luo and the flattering butler.
The dozen of people looked at Wang Lih who was wearing the only shabby clothes, but Wang Lih ignored them all.
"Dad, why did you bring this country bumpkin up here?" Young Master Luo had ill intentions.
At this moment, Wang Lih was truly unhappy with this Young Master Luo. It's the stupidest rule of business to judge a man only by his appearance and birth.
"Ning, son, if you continue to act like this and don't know your limits, then don't follow father back to the capital." Family Head of Luo Family had a look of displeasure on his face.
"Father, I know I was wrong."
The group of people burst into laughter. Young Master Luo's face was flushed red with shame.
Looking around, Wang Lih also realized that this place should be filled with people with money and power. He was dressed in luxurious clothes, which made him seem like the "All Under Heaven Merchant" that Young Master Luo had mentioned before.
But his family was so clean, what business did Family Head of Luo Family have with him?
