After settling Ning Cai 'er, Wu Chen chatted with Ning Zeng about the Jingguo coup for the whole night. They only ended the conversation when dawn broke in the east the next day.
After a night of interaction, Wu Chen and Ning Zeng had a comprehensive understanding of each other. At the same time, Ning Zeng also told Wu Chen everything he knew about the Jingguo Rebellion. Unfortunately, the information about the Shakya Sect was still so shallow. He only knew that the Shakya Sect was one of the top ten cultivation sects in the world. He did not know anything else.
But no matter what, this news was something that Wu Chen had to consider as soon as possible. Although Wu Chen had never come into contact with the cultivation world, he could tell that the power of the Shakya Sect was thousands of times greater than that of the Chen-Xing Empire from the words in Pu Shan's notes and his own cultivation. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to manipulate such a big event behind the scenes. However, even if he knew how terrifying the Shakya Sect was, Wu Chen would still choose to continue on the path of proving his mother's name. As for the reason, it was very simple. This was merely the responsibility of a son.
……
Time passed quickly as he studied the [Flying Cloud Crane Dance Painting]. Perhaps it was because he had been studying it for a long time, but Wu Chen's heart gradually became restless. When he comprehended the thirteenth move of the Flying Cloud Crane Dance Picture, Wu Chen could not calm down no matter what he said. He could only helplessly close the Flying Cloud Crane Dance Picture and think about other things.
Wu Chen didn't plan to bring the Ning siblings along with him to Cangzhou Prefecture. Firstly, Ning Cai 'er's injuries had yet to recover, and secondly, Wu Chen didn't want anyone to disturb him. He wanted to spend some time alone with his mother. After finding the Ning siblings and leaving some silver pieces behind, Wu Chen returned to his cabin to prepare.
The ship docked at a very tight time. As soon as the ship docked, many merchants rushed out of the cabin with big and small bags. The merchants who had been waiting on the shore earlier started to move. Looking at the sea of people at the dock, Wu Chen's heart had already flown into Cangzhou Prefecture.
The Li Clan was one of the most powerful clans in the Cang Prefecture. Not only did they produce a legendary woman like Li Xiaomu, but they also produced many people that even the Chen Xing Empire had to treat seriously. However, even though this illustrious family had been able to survive for ten years with its powerful strength, the subsequent blow had caused this family, which had once been in the middle of a storm, to fall step by step. As for how the members of the Li Clan were doing? This was the question that Wu Chen was most concerned about. While he was sweeping his mother's grave in Cang Prefecture, the most important thing was to find the remaining members of the Li Clan. No matter what, these members were the closest people to Wu Chen.
For the sake of convenience, Wu Chen separated the Ning siblings when they got off the boat. Perhaps it was because he felt the call of home, Wu Chen could not help but quicken his pace.
Cangzhou Prefecture was one of the important passes to enter Shangliang. Whether it was in terms of economy or military, it had an irreplaceable position. Therefore, when the Cang Prefecture was first built, the Urban area was already planned to be extremely large. According to Wu Chen's understanding, the Cang Prefecture was currently controlled by three big families. These three big families were the Liao family, the Hou family, and the Nangong family. At the same time, there was also bad news that these three families had secretly sided with Wu Feng. Fortunately, Wu Chen was familiar with the martial arts world and did not care about these blockades. After entering Cangzhou Prefecture, he made many turns until he stopped in front of a teahouse. The teahouse in front of him seemed very ordinary. If it wasn't for the strange symbol carved on the teahouse in front of the teahouse, even if one was observant, they wouldn't know that this was the famous Taste Seeking Teahouse in Jianghu.
"Elder Liu is right. This Taste Seeking Teahouse is really open to every corner of the continent.”Seeing the strange symbol, Wu Chen's heart calmed down. It was Liu Banxian who had told Wu Chen about these Jianghu methods, and Liu Banxian had already been in the Heaven Prison for more than ten years. He had to consider whether these Jianghu methods had changed in the past ten years.
"Shopkeeper, do you have any good tea recently?”After entering the shop, Wu Chen went straight to the counter and placed a black token on the table.
"Sir, recently the new tea from Liu Province has been on the market. I wonder how much you want.”Seeing the black token, the shopkeeper who was originally hiding behind the counter couldn't help but reveal a trace of light from the corner of his eyes. However, he didn't stand up immediately.
"Although the tea in Liu Province is good, I don't know if it was produced last month.”Seeing the shopkeeper's intention, Wu Chen knew that he had found the right place, so he followed the incision that Liu Banxian had taught him before and continued unhurriedly.
As the Chen-Xing Empire suppressed the civil forces, the entire Greenwood Empire was having a hard time. Slang words like clairaudient, stepping on plates, and cutting darts had long been recognized as slang words on the continent. Therefore, in order to deal with the Empire's inspection, a new set of slang words was born. For example, in the conversation between the shopkeeper and Wu Chen, the word "flow" and the word "moon" were the new starting point. In the game, there was a cut for numbers.'Liu' represented 'one', while' Yue 'represented' two'. Usually, for safety reasons, the number would be above five, and 'five' was the word 'middle' in the cut. However, since Wu Chen had brought along Liu Banxian's Taste Inquiring Token today, the incision would not be too long. Hearing Wu Chen say the word " moon ", the shopkeeper did not say much and directly welcomed Wu Chen into the back of the teahouse.
Following behind the shopkeeper, Wu Chen walked all the way to the backyard of the tea house. Perhaps it was to welcome his friends from the martial world, but the layout of the backyard was exceptionally quiet.
"I hope brother can forgive me for the inconvenience I caused earlier.”He took out a tea set from under the stone table and took the spring water from the bamboo pipe. The shopkeeper asked as he brewed tea.
"Of course. Now that the government is watching closely, it is necessary to be careful.”Wu Chen was naturally not dissatisfied with the shopkeeper's caution. He took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to the shopkeeper. This was called " Mountain Worship " in Jianghu. Generally speaking, these letters were written by some Jianghu elders to let them know that there was indeed such a person in Jianghu. After all, the martial world was so big that there were countless people from all walks of life. It was inevitable that someone would tell the truth. Therefore, he needed to use this "Mountain Letter" to further prove the identity of the person.
"So you're Old Master Liu's friend. I wonder how Old Master Liu is doing now.”As expected of the old man of Xunwei Teahouse, the shopkeeper could tell from the handwriting who wrote this letter. Although Liu Banxian was locked in the depths of the prison, his reputation had not declined in the past ten years.
"Old Master Liu is now in good health. I came out this time because of Old Master Liu's guidance. I hope the shopkeeper can forgive me for my sudden visit.”News spread quickly in Jianghu. When Shang Liang was looking for news about the thousand-year-old blood essence, Wu Chen had a deep feeling. For example, there was no reason for Cangzhou, which was nearby, not to know that Liu Banxian was imprisoned in the Heaven Prison. Therefore, Wu Chen did not say much about this.
"It's good that you're safe and healthy. We're all people of the martial arts world. As for whether it's abrupt or not, don't say it.”The shopkeeper saw that Wu Chen was not lying. After he flattened the letter, he took out a seal from his sleeve and stamped his own symbol on the lower right corner of the letter. This was called "recognizing guests" in the martial arts world. It was to tell others that the person holding this letter had been recognized by a certain person or organization, and that this person was worth handing over. Anyway, it was a way to verify his identity.
"I want to understand the Li Clan.”Under such a strict investigation, there should not be any mistakes. However, in order to ensure his own safety, Wu Chen naturally would not introduce his identity. Similarly, the shopkeeper would not ask too much.
" The Li Clan. I am not the Li Clan that gave birth to the Mother of the Nation, Li Xiaomu, ten years ago. I, Xunwei Teahouse, will naturally not forget such an aristocratic clan. This is a report regarding the latest situation of the Li Clan, but according to the rules…" As the largest intelligence agency in the forest, Xunwei Teahouse naturally would not forget to collect these things. The shopkeeper flipped under the stone table and took out an envelope with the words 'Li Clan'.
"I naturally understand the rules. I wonder if these are enough.”He took out a silver note worth a hundred taels from his sleeve and handed it to the shopkeeper.
"Young Master, this is yours now. Young Master, please follow me." Seeing the banknote worth a hundred taels, the shopkeeper unceremoniously put it away before handing the envelope to Wu Chen.
Seeing that the letter was in his hands, Wu Chen did not hesitate and immediately followed the shopkeeper out of the courtyard.
The entire transaction process took less than half an incense stick's time. With such a fast method of obtaining information, it was no wonder that the people of the Green Forest would value this Taste Seeking Teahouse.
……
After sending Wu Chen off, the shopkeeper returned to the small courtyard and saw a white-robed man holding a folding fan in his hand and sitting in Wu Chen's original seat.
"You sent him away?" The man folded his fan and asked the shopkeeper who walked into the courtyard.
"Young Master, we just sent him away." When the shopkeeper saw the white-robed man sitting there, he did not show a trace of surprise on his face, as if the white-robed man in front of him should be there.
"Do you know who is coming?" The white-robed man took the tea from the shopkeeper and asked as he drank it.
"Replying to Young Master, if this old servant is not wrong, this person should be Prince Chen Yuan, who has just been released from prison.”When he heard the white-robed man ask this question, the shopkeeper could not help but frown. One had to know that such a method of checking the identity of a person was a big taboo in the martial arts world. It could be said that even if the shopkeeper knew, he could not say it. However, due to the identity of the white-robed man in front of him, the shopkeeper still told him his guess.
"Tower Lord said that Prince Chen Yuan is definitely not someone ordinary. He might not have much now, but when he truly grows up in the future, his strength will definitely be immeasurable. Rather than adding flowers to the brocade, it is better to send charcoal in the snow now.”The man let go of his hands and leaned against the back of the chair. Unintentionally, he gave off a feeling that he had everything under control.
"Please rest assured, young master. As long as Prince Chen Yuan is in Cang Prefecture, this old servant can guarantee that no one will be able to harm him.”The shopkeeper, who understood the man's identity, immediately made a promise after hearing this.
"You're mistaken. Prince Chen Yuan is someone that the Tower Lord has his eyes on, so how could he die so easily? You must know that the edge of a sword comes from tempering, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from bitter cold. If you don't let it experience some hardships, how can you let it grow? I still have things to do, so I won't stay any longer. You can arrange this matter yourself!”Seeing that the shopkeeper had misunderstood his meaning, the white-robed man did not say anything more. After leaving behind a series of philosophical words, his body strangely disappeared from the small courtyard.
