Liu Tie didn't pay attention to the movement outside, and after closing the door, he sat by the brazier, with his current cultivation, he didn't feel the change in temperature at all, and now he was worried about this damn weather.

Sighing softly, he lay down on the bed with his clothes, and waited for a few days, but if he couldn't do it, he sold the horse, crossed the river by himself, and bought it again when he got to the river.

"Or your second master has vision. The leader of the guards complimented, Tian Hao smiled indifferently, sat down boredly, the heavy snow was trapped in the door, and he could only look at God.

"Second master," said the leader of the guards, "it seems that we are going to stay here for a few more days, and this weather, if it is cold for another two or three days, it will definitely be freezing." ”

Tian Hao couldn't help but hum, and the leader of the guard said tentatively: "You have to feel bored, or you don't go to the Qinglou, find a girl to accompany you." ”

"Forget it," Tian Hao waved his hand: "I'm not interested, I'll sleep, you pay attention, be careful." ”

"Yes, Second Master. ”

The guards carefully covered the door, and then turned around in the yard, the yard is very quiet, across a wall is the B-shaped room, this inn does not look big, but it is divided into a and B room and a large shop, the upper room is also called a room, the rooms are independent rooms, there is a simple greening in the yard, but it is now winter, the branches are bare; the B room is much simpler, it is a row of simple rooms, the room is smaller, there is no bed only Kang; the big shop is simpler, just on the edge of the stable, it is estimated that you can still smell the smell of horses.

The leader of the guard instructed his two subordinates to be careful and vigilant, as long as this Liu Tie did not provoke him, he would not have entanglement with them, but the two officers and the three high-rollers in the B room, these people did not know their origins, so they had to be careful.

The head of the guard is also a member of the Tian family, and was given the surname by the head of the family, named Tian Ban, after arranging two guards, he went to the lobby to see, but he didn't think about it, and there was a group of guests in the lobby, obviously a group of Jianghu performers, with knives, guns, swords, halberds, and monkeys and dogs, seven or eight men and women, and the name was a show team called Zheng Jiaban.

When this gang of Jianghu team arrived in the store, the lobby suddenly became lively, the dog ran and the monkey jumped, Tian Ban couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw this, but he didn't say anything, Liu Tie had already taught him a lesson just now, the Tian family was not afraid of officialdom, but the people in the rivers and lakes were different, there were countless strange people hidden in the rivers and lakes, and they were provoked, even if they could be suppressed in the end, the final loss was not small, which was experienced in many families.

walked around the store, and then he went to the B room, to see the two officers, the Lin brother was lying on the bed, unable to move, and chatted with the officer who took care of him, knowing that the officer surnamed Lin was called Lin Feng, and the officer who took care of him was called Feng Qing, and the two of them belonged to Bohai County, and this time they were transferred to the camp in Bishan.

"Brother Tian, who is that guy?" Feng Qing asked with a little anger and a little fear.

"We also met in this store," Tian Ban explained: "To be honest, before you, we wanted to charter the upper room, but he refused, the second master didn't want to use force, and I don't know that the second master has taken a fancy to him, otherwise, I will conflict with him first." ”

Tian Ban smiled bitterly, Feng Qing understood in his heart that the conflict was just good, and it was almost the same as being beaten.

"According to him, he came back from Youzhou, and I guess he is one of those outlaws who ran outside Youzhou. Tian Ban said.

Feng Qing was slightly stunned, and then there was a feeling of sudden realization, although he had never been to Youzhou, but he had also heard that some people in the rivers and lakes could not find a family to take refuge, so they went to Youzhou to be a bodyguard and turned away from the foreign trade road.

Only those desperate outlaws dare to die, so these people who take the foreign trade road are all killed from the sea of blood.

While he was talking, the three Jianghu guests came in drunk with their guys, and after entering the house, they closed the door, and then there was a loud cursing sound from the house.

Tian Ban frowned slightly, looked at Lin Feng lying on the bed, and comforted Feng Qing: "Wait a few hours, it's okay." ”

Out of the door, Tian Ban sighed softly, this Ma Tie method is spicy enough, although Lin Feng is rude, but after all, it is just a fight for the room, not a battle of life and death, let people lie down for a few hours, and at the end of the day is an outlaw on the rivers and lakes, and the second master doesn't know what to like him.

After turning around, he returned to the upper room, and the two guards named Tian Geng were standing in the courtyard, and when they saw him coming in, they hurriedly stepped forward and whispered to him that the second master was resting.

Tian Ban nodded, raised his eyes to look at Liu Tie's room, the door was closed, Tian Geng whispered that he had not come out, and there was no movement in the house.

Tian Ban thought that this was the right thing to do, and told Tian Geng to watch carefully, and then went into the house to rest.

Liu Tie rested in the house, but the movement outside could not hide from him, after stepping into the realm of the grandmaster, both the six senses and the internal breath have undergone great changes, the six senses are more keen, and the inner breath is more condensed and pure, which is very different from the realm of martial artists.

After a trip to the outside of the fortress, he has been trained on the battlefield and consolidated his realm, and now his realm is stable, and the grandmaster can be regarded as standing firm.

However, after stepping into the realm of the grandmaster, he found that the progress of the realm was extremely slow, although the speed of inhaling the vitality was accelerated, but every step forward was extremely difficult, his realm was stable, but it was still only on the first grade of the grandmaster, if the first grade was divided into nine layers, he was only on the third layer now, and this was mostly due to the pill given by Liu Han.

Touching the porcelain bottle in his arms, the elixir is gone, this kind of elixir that can promote the cultivation of the grandmaster is hard to find in the rivers and lakes, if it appears, it will be bloody.

The charcoal in the brazier emitted a faint red light, Liu Tie sat cross-legged on the bed, quietly pranayama, and soon entered the oblivion of things and me, and then opened his eyes, and it was already dark outside.

Liu Tie got up and opened the door, the snowflakes came to his face, he couldn't help but be happy in his heart, it was snowing, like this, in two days, the river would be frozen.

The snowflakes were falling flutteringly, and he raised his eyes to see the opposite side, there were two figures there, Tian Hao and Tian Ban, Tian Hao was wearing a big coat, standing under the porch, and also looked at the snowflakes.

Liu Tie shouted outside: "Little Er!"

After a while, the guy came running from outside in the snow, saw him, gave a slight salute, and before he could speak, Liu Tie had already ordered: "One jar of wine, three catties of meat, two catties of buns, and two more specialty dishes." ”

After speaking, he turned around and went back to the house, the guy agreed loudly, turned around and saw Tian Hao, and gave a salute to Tian Hao, before running out, to the door of the moon, he almost bumped into a person head-on, and the man quickly apologized and let him aside.

"Brother Songtao is here!"

After the visitor stepped into the courtyard door, he shouted loudly, and Tian Hao couldn't help but smile when he opened the door when he heard this.

"Brother Bowen, come in, come in!"

Tian Hao's voice was a little surprised, and the people who came laughed and walked in, this erudite brother surnamed Fu Mingxian, is a famous man in Anping, once appeared in the history of Zhongshan County, he is bold and righteous, and is one of Tian Hao's friends.

Fu Xian was wearing a squirrel skin, took it off after entering the house, and then took a jar of wine from the man behind him, and the other man opened the food box and took out the food and put it away.

"When the wind and snow meet the deceased, the Bohai Sea will be goodbye, and it will be three years in the blink of an eye. Fu Xian pulled Tian Hao and sighed, three years ago, he resigned from the county lord of Zhongshan, traveled to the Bohai Sea, and traveled with Tian Hao all day long.

"I heard that you went to Qingzhou? Tian Hao pulled him to sit down, and without any humility, he lifted the wine jug and poured it for him.

Fu Xian shook his head with a smile: "Qingzhou is gone, but Zhao Zhi... Fu Xian shook his head with some contempt: "Two years ago, I accepted the conquest of King Qi, and now I am serving under King Qi." ”

"Oh, it turns out that the elder brother is serving under the account of the king of Qi," Tian Hao flashed a trace of surprise in his heart, two years ago, the old king of Qi died, and the son succeeded to the throne and was demoted as usual, and now he should be the king of Qijun.

Anping Fu family is a small scholar, Fu Xian has been studying abroad since he was a child, he has a name for wisdom when he was young, he went around to study when he was young, participated in the autumn products of the imperial capital, and got the top grade, however, his career has always been not smooth, first in several small counties as a county Cheng, more than 30 years before he was appointed as the lord of Zhongshan County, but he just worked for two years, admired his county guard leaving, he looked down on the new county guard, resigned himself, and then traveled around.

"When I was in the imperial capital, I had the honor to visit the king of Qi, and I had an appointment with the king of Qi at that time, but unfortunately, I had something else at that time, and I could not fulfill the contract. ”

Fu Xian and Tian Hao chatted while drinking, talking about their respective experiences, and a jar of wine quickly bottomed out, and Tian Hao asked the guy to send another jar.

When this jar of wine was about to bottom, Fu Xiancai asked with a little drunkenness: "Brother Songtao, are you going back to Wei County or going there?"

"Back to Ye City. Tian Hao sighed, and Fu Xian also sighed: "After the death of Duke Ning, the Tian family lost their support in the imperial capital, and even Jizhou lost their support in the imperial court, alas. ”

Tian Hao sighed deeply, and Fu Xian suddenly frowned again: "Brother Songtao, after so many years, you refuse to go back, what is the important thing this time?"

"My brother asked me to go back," Tian Hao reluctantly said, "saying that there is something important at home." ”

"Your eldest brother, isn't it Tian Wen?" Fu Xian asked.

Tian Hao nodded, he and Tian Wen are not the same father, but the same grandfather, Tian Kai competed for the position of head of the family back then, his father Tian Li supported his eldest brother, and later Tian Wen wanted to be the head of the family, his father saw it clearly, did not make a sound, and took a retreat strategy, Tian Kai did not embarrass his younger brother, but supported his younger brother to contain the family elders.

After Tian Wen ascended to the position of the head of the family, he suppressed all the other houses, but it was better for their house, and the industry of Bohai County was the most important economic source of the Tian family, so he handed it over to him Tian Hao to control.

Of course, the most important thing is the imperial capital, Tian Wen was handed over to his younger brother Tian Ning of the same father and mother, but he didn't expect Tian Ning to die unexpectedly, who will this imperial capital be handed over?

Tian Hao estimated that this time he went back for the fat of the imperial capital, and at home, alas, it was really annoying.

He didn't want to get involved in the fight.

Fu Xian is very smart, and he can see Tian Hao's difficulties at a glance, so he smiled and said: "Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, Brother Songtao, not a brother said, that Tian Wen of your family, hehe, is inevitably narrow-minded, and the Tian Ao he likes is not a character, I am afraid that he himself knows, otherwise he will not necessarily let his son sit on the throne of the lord." ”

"Alas, forget it, these bad things," Tian Hao smiled bitterly, feeling extremely ashamed in his heart, Fu Xian shook his head: "You, in fact, in my opinion, if I were Tian Wen, I would pass on the head of the family to you, you are much better than his son." ”

"Brother, that's all for now," Tian Hao smiled bitterly: "I don't have the heart to care about this, let them go." ”

Fu Xian shook his head: "Brother, this is not a trivial matter, how many thousand years the family has declined, how did it decline, isn't it just that there have been several mediocre family owners in a row, in the past few years, the Tian family has been in decline, if there is another Tian Ao, ten years later, the decline of the Tian family will be irreparable." ”

"Brother, these bad things, forget it, let's talk about you," Tian Hao didn't want to talk about this topic, family affairs: "I heard that the prince of Qi is also a virtuous king." ”

Fu Xian nodded: "The prince is not very old, but he was taught by Langya Qingshi Academy, Jingdao Dian, Lixian Corporal, reduced taxes and taxes for the people, and was deeply loved by the people of Qi State." ”

Tian Hao smiled, Tian also has a business in Qi State, it is not that he does not know the scene of Qi State, if you want to say that this new Qi King has any evil deeds, this is not true, but if you want to say tax reduction and tax reduction, it is just a cliché.

The country of Qi is already rich, the country of Qi is close to the mountains and the sea, the king of Qi opens mines in the mountains, leads the sea to dry salt, and grows cotton in the plains, the cotton of the country of Qi is one of the four major cottons in the world, which is dense and long, so only by relying on these three major incomes, the king of Qi can live very comfortably, and the tax exemption is just to buy the hearts of the people.
