C82 The Legendary Aristocratic Families

082

Listening to the regular breathing beside the pillow, Tang Lingqiu, who seemed to be asleep, suddenly opened his eyes in the darkness. There was no sleepiness in his eyes at all.

He gently turned over and tilted his head to look at the sleeping person. Ye Zi didn't wake up, but the cat in the darkness raised its head and stared at Tang Lingqiu, making the latter suspect that if he made any move, the little black cat would immediately pounce on him with its claws out, and a war between humans and cats would take place on the bed.

Tang Lingqiu raised his index finger and signaled the black cat to be silent. No one knew if it understood or not, but he didn't do anything else after that. Tang Lingqiu thought it had understood. It really was a suspicious cat.

Tang Lingqiu's gaze returned to Ye Zi, he had a complicated look in his eyes, the child seemed to be simple but was very deep in his thoughts, but now, in front of him, he was the most defenseless of them all. Tang Lingqiu's gaze returned to Ye Zi, Tang Lingqiu had a complicated look in his eyes, in his eyes, in his eyes, the child seemed to be simple yet was very deep in his thoughts, but in front of him, he was the most defenseless of them.

He didn't want to break everything he had now, so he boiled the frog in warm water and slowly fixed the person up. The short excitement was not what he was after, otherwise, with his family background, as long as he spread the news, there would be different kinds of beauties throwing themselves into his arms. However, he was willing to drink a cup of tea with the person he liked, sit in the rocking chair and watch the sun rise and set.

Tang Lingqiu finally touched his lips and whispered, "Ye-zi, you can't run away."

He turned around and provoked the little black cat childishly. Before the Qiuqiu blew his fur, Tang Lingqiu quickly crawled back into bed and wrapped his arms around Ye Zi.

On the second day, because of the snow, Phoenix-tail Mountain wasn't easy to travel on the road, but they weren't normal people, even Tang Lingqiu, had stayed in the army for a while, even if his skills couldn't be compared to Zhao Jun's, he could still beat down two or three big men with his bare hands.

Zhao Jun hooked his fingers at Wang Shujie: "Come on, just do it. Let this brother see how heavy you are!"

"What the f * ck!" "Wang Shujieson, you're looking down on me!" This scene made Ye Zi, who was standing to one side, cover his eyes with his hands. Even if he had no experience in combat, he could tell that Shujie had no pattern, not to mention how long he had been practicing, and how he could be compared to someone like Zhao Jun, who had been rolling around in the barracks for so many years.

As expected, before he could peek through the cracks of his fingers, Wang Shujie let out a blood-curdling scream. Unfortunately, he was mercilessly thrown to the ground by Zhao Jun.

"Again!" Zhao Jun turned into a ghost beast instructor, pointing at Wang Shujie on the ground and telling him to keep going.

However, in the eyes of Zhao Jun and Tang Lingqiu, who were watching from the side, Wang Shujie's actions were really strange. There was also a kind of indescribable awkwardness, not sharp, but just when the attack was about to reach him, Wang Shujie suddenly dodged the force of his punch with an unexpected posture and angle. However, it was unfortunate that the scream rang out again.

Tang Lingqiu was amused. He turned around and looked at Ye Zi: "Ye, did you teach him? Your level should be higher than him, right? "

Ye Zi embarrassedly touched his nose: "I taught it. It wasn't good. Zhao Jun just slowed down to guide Shujie. Otherwise, how could he have walked a few rounds and been defeated in a single strike."

"No, it's already amazing to be treated so seriously by Zhao Jun. You should know that stupid big guy only practiced it for a few days? Zhao Jun had been working for many years. Ye, do you want to try it out with Zhao Jun? Zhou had told him that it was very easy to see the depth of Wang Shujie's work, but not with Ye Zi.

He wanted to test the results of his cultivation, but when he heard Tang Lingqiu's persuasion, he could not hold it in any longer. At this time, Wang Shujie was already falling on the ground for the fifth time, wanting to cry but had no tears. He touched his sore butt and was about to jump up to continue the challenge.

"Shujie, let me try."

"Great! Ye, go!" Let Elder Brother Zhao have a taste of being pushed down by others, it's not good to fall down, it's good to fall on one's butt. " Wang Shujie said while grinding his teeth.

Zhao Jun became more cautious. On the surface, Wang Shujie was tall and sturdy, while Ye Zi looked weak and weak. But because Zhao Jun couldn't see through him, he didn't dare to be careless, especially since Wang Shujie was taught to do so by Ye Zi.

Ye Zi feebly threw a punch without any pattern. He was not good at attacking as long as he came, but when Zhao Jun's fist wind attack arrived, the expression in Ye Zi's eyes changed. Just as the opponent's fierce fist wind arrived, the target of the attack disappeared.

Zhao Jun's heart skipped a beat and he quickly changed his punching routine to hit to the side. However, he missed again. With his experience, he was unable to tell that his attack had been anticipated by the other side and had reacted in advance.

After a dozen or so rounds, Ye Zi finally hit Zhao Jun's arm with his palm. The latter was pushed back a few steps before stopping. Ye Zi turned his head and said with a surprised look, "As expected, you can't be underestimated."

Tang Lingqiu applauded at the side. Compared to Wang Shujie's stiff movements, Ye Zi's was a smooth, evolved version. It was also very pleasing to the eyes. Wang Shujie also jumped over, putting his arm around Ye Zi's shoulder and laughed complacently at Zhao Jun: "How about it? Just you wait. When I learn more from you, I'll definitely take revenge for today! "

Ye Zi slapped him back: "What nonsense are you talking about? It was obviously Elder Brother Zhao who gave it to me. Even if Elder Brother Zhao used his full strength, I still wouldn't be a match."

Zhao Jun smiled. His skills were indeed more suited for the battlefield, he could even kill the enemy in the shortest amount of time, so Zhao Jun didn't deny it. However, he also said: "Ye, you don't have to be too modest, you have more room for growth, I'm almost done for." A hint of loneliness flashed across his eyes.

Ye Zi looked back at Tang Lingqiu. He didn't know if the results of the research he did for Big Brother Tang yesterday would be useful to Elder Brother Zhao, but he could also see that Elder Brother Zhao walked a tough and fierce path. However, it was very easy to break down just after, which caused his body to lose a lot of energy.

Tang Lingqiu understood what Ye Zi meant and nodded slightly. If it was useful, he would use it on his own people to let the people around him benefit first.

Zhao Jun and Tang Lingqiu stood to the side and watched Ye Zi and Wang Shujie train. Looking at their movements, they seemed to be one with the training just now. They could not help but guess, "Second Young Master, have you heard of the ancient martial arts family?"

Tang Lingqiu frowned, "I heard about it before, but I thought it was a legend at the time. I only found out later that there was really a group of capable people, but those aristocratic families hid themselves very well and rarely came into the world.

The class he was in was completely different. For the common folk, what happened in the legends was something that he learned from his grandfather and grandfather. Those people would usually choose to live in seclusion, and not everyone would meet the requirements for their martial arts training.

However, this would also explain the origin of the prescription Ye Zi gave him yesterday. It shouldn't be strange for some of the ancient martial arts families to use medicinal baths to help them practice martial arts. Of course, he only came to this conclusion because he did not have any deep contact with that class. When he understood more in the future, he immediately retracted his foreword.

What he was worried about now was where did Ye Zichen get the inheritance from. Judging from the attitude of those families, they wouldn't let whatever was in his hands get out. Did Ye Zi touch on some taboo by handing the recipe over to him for research?

He then gouged out Wang Shujie's eyes with a bit of appetite. Ye Zi was still a bit inferior to stupid big guy, since Ye Zi had grown up together with him.

As soon as they left, old village head ran over, it turned out that they wanted to finalize the matter of planting the flowers. After yesterday, many people came to his house to ask about it, and only after Ye Wenbo said that they would return after they had gone out to play did they calm down a little.

Ye Zi wanted to ask his grandpa to go out and play together, but Ye Wenbo said that he was an old man. If he went, it would only hinder the fun of their young generation, so he stayed behind to watch over the house.

The four of them didn't stop at the county city and went straight to the city. Previously, when they went to City G, they only stopped at the city for a bit.

N City was an old city. It had been known to many people and had even preserved some historical sites. Although it was a lot more prosperous compared to the Angxi County, it was still far behind the developed cities. However, the old city had its own characteristics. The four of them found a parking lot and walked on the street, feeling the joyous atmosphere of the new spring. They were all in a good mood.

The owner of this street played with jade artifacts and antiques. On the way here, Ye Zi suggested to take the first stop. He had used up most of the side materials previously, so now he needed a new batch.

They arrived early. At this time, some of the shops had yet to open their doors, and there were very few pedestrians. Thus, they first found a teahouse to rest in, drinking tea while having some snacks. From above, they could see the situation on the road below.

In the middle, Tang Lingqiu received a call from City B. He told the other party that he was doing official business in Anxi and hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, he saw Ye Zi's curious gaze, so he touched the top of Ye Zi's head and said, "B City's idle and anxious friend, you want to find me to go out and get some water? It's fine if they're there, but it's fine if they don't have any business there, but it's fine if I'm missing them all. I just met them a few years ago, so when you go to B City in the future, I'll introduce you to them."

"It's still two and a half years away." Ye Zi smiled and did not take it to heart. It was their fate to be so close to Tang Lingqiu, not all the children of the aristocratic family s could be so amiable. Therefore, Ye Zi did not force him.

"Mm, we'll talk about it later." Tang Lingqiu saw that Ye Zi was not active, so he didn't say anything. Although a few friends had such small problems, they wouldn't be so perfunctory towards the people he brought. Tang Lingqiu still believed his eyes on this point, otherwise, he wouldn't have been in contact with them.

"Let's go. There are a lot of people below now. Let's go down and take a look." Tang Lingqiu looked under the window and said.

Wang Shujie was eager to give it a try. The antique street here was pretty famous, and rumors of him picking up loopholes would occasionally spread. Maybe he could come here once.

Compared to other places, the street on the second day of the new year was quite popular. When people met with their relatives and friends, they also wanted to try their luck like Wang Shujie did. Red lanterns were hung at the entrance of the shop, and some of the shop employees were even wearing big red coats. It was clear that the festive atmosphere was very strong.

The stalls along the street were all set up. Some were big and some were small. Some were jade, some were porcelain, some were copper coins. Ye Zi glanced at them and asked Tang Lingqiu: "Big Brother Tang, do you understand?"

Tang Lingqiu shook his head and smiled, "I've played with my friends twice, but I was wrong about them. It's not that easy to get lucky, and now the people who do business are becoming more and more shrewd." The meaning in his words was that if there was something good to pick up, it would have to be picked up by others.

"My grandfather likes these things, but I'm not interested in learning them. Maybe my cousin knows more than I do." There was patience, but not much interest. He was more interested in numbers and numbers.

Although he didn't know much, he knew more than a complete amateur like Wang Shujie. When Tang Lingqiu saw the latter hugging a plate and listening to the stall owner's blowout with a face full of curiosity, he gave him an idiotic look. That kind of thing was obviously a modern art piece, yet he actually foolishly believed the stall owner's words about what kind of emperor used it.

The moment he saw Tang Lingqiu's expression, he knew it was fake. He gave the plate back to the stall owner and was about to leave when Ye Zi, who was about to follow him, suddenly made a sound of surprise. He picked up an inconspicuous old and darkened bronze Buddha statue from the stall.

"Little brother, you have good eyes. This is a good item that I have collected …"

The stall owner was about to give a long speech, but he was interrupted by Wang Shujie, he snatched the thing from Ye Zi's hands and said, "Don't tell me you're talking about how many years of history this thing has. Look at this statue, your eyes and nose are almost glued together.

The stall owner made a show of wanting to snatch it back, "Nonsense, I can't explain it to an amateur like you. If you don't buy it, the experts will have their eyes on it."

"No, give me a price, and I'll buy it as scrap metal." Wang Shujie retracted his hand.

Gritting his teeth, he stretched out his hand and said, "Then let's do it at this price. I've lost a lot of money."

"How much is this?" Wang Shujie, who was a complete layperson, was completely confused.

Tang Lingqiu took the Buddha statue and calmly said: "50! I'll buy it once I'm 50, but it's fine if I don't sell it. "

He made a profit of fifty yuan, but was a fool if he did not sell it. "We can talk things through. This young man seems to know a lot more than the young brother from before. If he's fifty, then so be it. I'll make this friend of yours."

Ye Zi didn't say anything. At this moment, he took out a ticket and put the item away casually in his pocket.

After leaving the stall, Wang Shujie walked up from behind and said excitedly, "Ye-zi, what was that good stuff just now?"

"How do you know it's good?" Seeing Tang Lingqiu's also interested gaze, Ye Zi explained, "Actually, I don't know where the item came from, but what I have my eyes on is its material. That thing is not ordinary copper."

"Then at least I got lucky." Wang Shujie was the most concerned about this matter. Ye Zi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The former was quickly dragged to the back by Zhao Jun.

"I'm really useful." Ye Zi looked at Tang Lingqiu and said seriously.

Tang Lingqiu patted the top of his hair and said: "It's good that it's useful. I think that the stall owner also earned it." He did not ask any more questions about its use, nor did he know if the material was made of copper or not.

It was a material that could set up arrays, copper essence. The surface was covered with a faint aura of spirit energy, and when Ye Zi touched it, he could feel that a copper essence could be produced in one piece or two. Ye Zi didn't expect that he would run into something like this by accident.

Behind him, Wu Tie tried to check the spiritual energy on the items on the stall. It didn't matter if the items were real or fake, those with spiritual energy definitely wouldn't be bad, and they wouldn't be wrong in distinguishing between good and bad jade artifacts. After several failures, Wang Shujie finally gave up on his luck and bought a piece of jade Guanyin under the recommendation of Ye Zi. Ye Zi had also spent several hundred dollars to buy three jade pendants. He was prepared to use some corner materials to practice before he carved the array inside the pendant.

"Big Brother Tang, which piece do you like?" Ye Zi looked at the three jade pendants in his hand and asked. One of them was a dragon, one was a monkey, and the last one was a bat.

They had already walked through more than half of the street. There were more people here. Tang Lingqiu, who was paying attention not to be run into by others, asked happily, "Ye-zi, are you going to give it to me?"

"After a period of time, we'll get to know each other. The last piece is for grandpa." The three jade pendants had all been arranged to go.

Zhao Jun's brows twitched: "And mine?"

"Yes, Elder Brother Zhao, which one do you want?" Ye Zi nodded.

Elder Brother Zhao was overjoyed. He couldn't care about the dark face of the second young master as he pointed at the monkey. "I'm a monkey, that's all."

Seeing that Ye Zi was looking up at him, Tang Lingqiu could only say, "Let's use the dragon-tattooed one, Grandpa Ye of the bat tattooed one. I think that piece of jade should be more transparent as well."

Ye Zi put away the jade pendant, "Then let's go to the store and have a look."

The four of them went straight to the shop in the back and helped Ye Zi pick the jade. Although they didn't understand why they only needed the corner materials, they only needed to be the porters.

When they were done, Zhao Jun took the staff to the car, and Tang Lingqiu took Ye Zi and Wang Shujie to a restaurant they had seen earlier for lunch. The three of them passed the entrance of an antique shop and met the person who came out.

He happened to know the two people walking in front. One of them was Young Master Lee Chengdong Li, whom he had only met once. The other one, Pan Jingwen, was a classmate of his. He was right. When Pan Jingwen saw him, she was also surprised, but then her lips curled up, and before Lee Chengdong could say anything, she took the latter's arm and said, "Chengdong, I met a classmate. A high school classmate."

Lee Chengdong casually glanced at Ye Zi. His interest was on Tang Lingqiu, so Pan Jingwen's high school classmate was not in the mood to pay attention to him.

"Young Master Tang, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here. Why haven't you returned to City B? I heard that County Magistrate Xie has already left. " Lee Chengdong came over with a smile.

Tang Lingqiu smiled politely and said: "Coincidentally, there's something I need to take care of here. Cousin will be back the next day, so Young Master Li is also interested in seeing the antiques?" As he spoke, he looked at the people behind the shop and beside Lee Chengdong. With just a glance, he could tell that the people next to him were much more dangerous than Lee Chengdong.

"Haha, I think that Young Master Tang's real interest lies in me. I'm just a friend who opened a store here and specially came to support you. It's the one behind me. Come, let me introduce you. This is the Jade Artifact Shop's boss, Ding Xu Elder Brother Ding, Elder Brother Ding. This is Angxi County County's Leader's cousin, Young Master Tang. "Do you want me to go into the shop and take a look at the antiques? If there's anything I want, I'll ask Elder Brother Ding to give you a discount.

Lee Chengdong was a gentle and elegant young master. Beside him stood a young man who looked to be in his twenties or thirties.

After hearing Lee Chengdong's introduction, he looked over in confusion: "So it's Young Master Tang, I heard Young Master Li mention Young Master Tang's name, it is my honor to have Young Master Tang visit my store, Young Master Li's words are what I mean, do you want to go in and take a look?" "I wonder if our store's antiques are even worthy of Young Master Tang's attention?"

Unlike Lee Chengdong who only focused on Tang Lingqiu, he turned his attention to Ye Zi and Zhao Jun several times. The corner of his mouth slightly raised. Obviously, these two people had attracted his interest. When he looked at Tang Lingqiu again, his gaze was different.
