C490 Good News
The Tongbai Mountains of Henan are also entrenched in a considerable force, the Heavenly Slaughter Saber Feng Feiyi and the Earth Slayer Sword Feng Qixiong's master never left the old monster of Tian Fang Mountain, Zhu Gan Ling, as their martial arts were not weak at all. They also had the joint attack of the blade and sword, and there were few enemies around them at the moment. Furthermore, the two of them have strange martial arts skills and have violent temperaments. They are merciless in their attacks. Tong Baishan had actually become a restricted area of the people in Community of Martial Arts.
Some people only needed a single word to change the fate of others.
Three days after the sale ended, the Feng brothers' stronghold was burned to ashes. The two of them were also nowhere to be found. Unwittingly, Tong Bai Mountain actually became a human purgatory.
No one knew who had done it first, but the huge amount of gold stored in the Tong brothers' stronghold had already been quietly confirmed. The Feng brothers were like two bugs that landed on travelers, and with a flick of their fingers, they disappeared without a trace.
At first, the situation was still chaotic, but later on, the forces that were fighting over it slowly surfaced. The four great families still refused to participate, and the other second-tier families such as Nangong, Xi, Bu, and the others were either hidden or discovered. As a result, the number of martial arts tycoons that were killed was no less than a dozen.
In the end, the Imperial Court was alerted and several experts from the Fang family were invited to take charge. They took the gold mine back to the country. The various powers were originally in a stalemate, and no one was able to swallow this treasure. Now that the Imperial Court had appeared, everyone had nothing to say. Firstly, they did not want to openly oppose the Imperial Court, and secondly, they did not want to offend the Fang Clan.
However, if you thought that the matter would be settled just like that, then you would be too naive. After the Fang Clan's experts left, the gold mine started to produce, and during the transport, it was often robbed. Even the newly produced gold was sometimes hard to preserve, but the Fang family's experts could not always stay in this gold mine.
At that time. The situation was already unstable. In the end, in a fit of anger, the Imperial Court sealed up this gold mine and waited for the situation to stabilize before mining.
After this matter, it could be said that almost all parties did not obtain any benefits. On the contrary, there were some casualties.
The only one who benefited was perhaps white-clothed scholar from Siwu Inn.
In just two to three months, Siwu Inn had become famous.
Not only could they spread the news, they could also create the news.
In the second auction three months later, the news about Tong Baishan reached the third place on the news ranking. And this time, other than the guests who received the invitation, each person would be charged a hundred gold taels as a membership fee. This time, some poor and stingy people were blocked outside the door.
However, not everyone who came to the Siwu Inn this time was here to obtain news.
Everyone knew that this old monster was the most protective of his people. However, he was already old, so he wasn't as muddle-headed as before. Nangong, Xi, Bu, these families had been around for a long time, and their foundations were deep. Moreover, they had a large number of people, and they were not something he could shake. When he heard that there were only two or three people in Siwu Inn supporting them, he vented the anger he had for his two disciples to this point.
Zhu Gan Ling was an expert in the Dark Wind Divine Art. Once he attacked, the color of the wind and lightning would change, and it looked like he was going to tear down this small inn. When the waiter, Yang Shan, exchanged blows with him, it was obvious that he was unable to withstand thirty moves. Su Xiong, who was in the kitchen, joined the battle at this time. The kitchen knife in his hand was wide open. He actually received eighty percent of Zhu Gan Ling's attack and did not fall into a disadvantageous position at all. On the other hand, Yang Shan picked up an advantage at the side and fought for less than fifty moves. Zhu Gan Ling's beard had been pulled out by him quite a few times.
The more Zhu Gan Ling fought, the more shocked he became. The fact that his beard had been pulled out was secondary. The saber technique of the saber user dressed up as a cook was strange. It looked as if he had never used his own saber technique. It was just a casual move.
Not to mention that the other party's main character, white-clothed scholar, had yet to make a move, even if this chef did not conceal his strength and attacked with all his strength, he would probably not be a match for him.
At this point, Zhu Qianling could only retreat in the face of difficulties. As for Siwu Inn, it was just a waiter and a cook making a move. Just... After defeating a famous and troublesome figure like Zhu Gan Ling, it made people think even more highly of the Siwu Inn.
Furthermore, after this incident, the Nangong family, the Xi family, the Bu family, and the others in the martial arts world had joined forces to inform the martial arts world. Siwu Inn was under their joint protection. If anyone came to cause trouble again, they would have to weigh their own weight first. Of course, the Siwu Inn had also given them benefits, and that was to keep their VIP seats. And... It was free for all eternity.
The second episode of the sale would start as scheduled. This time, after the seven major events of the Jianghu were announced, white-clothed scholar once again released a shocking free message: Kong Youde had submitted to the max and became the boss of the max.
At that time, although Kong Youde was already in a state of war with the Imperial Court, the entire Imperial Court was still unwilling to go all out to wipe them out. They even had the idea of giving him a good beating, hoping that they could take his team back for their own use.
This piece of news from white-clothed scholar had a huge impact on the Imperial Court and the situation in Shandong. Everything that happened after that was just as he had said. Kong Youde had fled to join the Qing Dynasty and was entrusted with an important task.
Most of the martial artists in the south did not care much about this far-reaching news. When it came to the last part of the news auction, many of them rubbed their fists, wanting to take the lead.
The starting price was still 1000 gold taels. white-clothed scholar reminded. His information might be worth millions to some people, but it might not be worth anything to them. However, if you can sell this information to others, you must be able to earn nothing. Of course, you must first ensure that you have the life to spend this money.
In the end, this news was bought by the Bu family for 9000 gold taels. No one knew what this piece of news was, but it was said that the head of the Bu family, Bu Fan Gao, was very satisfied with this piece of news. He didn't even exchange 100,000 gold taels for it.
Of course, there were also people who suspected that it was the Nangong, Xi, and Bu families who were playing the game.
Very quickly, three months later, their doubts were shattered.
This time, the final piece of news was bought by a mysterious buyer for 17,000 gold taels. It was said that the Bu family was still digesting the information, so they didn't participate. A month later, the truth of the news was revealed.
It turned out that the mysterious buyer sold the information to the Imperial Court and received a reward of 40,000 gold taels not long after.
The news this time was a map of Qingjun's attack on the Central Plains. The Imperial Court would rather believe it than not, and they mobilized their troops to defend. Not long after, they realized that Qingjun's movement was exactly the same as the intel.
Because they had long been prepared, they had won a few indifferent battles. Actually, to put it bluntly, he did not let Qingjun take advantage of him. Even so, there were frequent reports of success from the various armies below, and they were vying for military merits. It was as if Qingjun had been beaten by them until he could not turn the tables for the rest of his life.
The battle at the border was still very far away from most people. More importantly, in the blink of an eye, seventeen thousand gold taels had turned into forty thousand gold taels. It had more than doubled. This time, everyone's appetite had been stirred up.
