Su Chen stood on top of the flying sword, looking at the Gusu County where the smoke was rising in the distance, and the Yaowang Gang Villa not far from the city, and was stunned for a long time.

Closer to Gusu County, he felt a little timid in his heart and stopped moving.

There, there was everything he knew so well.

Every inch of his homeland here is extremely familiar, and there are traces of his painstaking cultivation. The old people and disciples of the Medicine King Gang are all living here.

This land, as well as countless memories of his youth.

Those of his most poignant, joyful, and heart-wrenching experiences.

Here he was, through his most difficult years. Since leaving Gusu, no matter how much suffering he has experienced, it has not made many waves in his heart.

Now that I'm back, I still have to walk in after all.

Su Chen is not in a hurry, this trip is estimated to be in the mortal world for a year or two.

There is nothing else to do except to impact the realm of the gods, there is more time to see, and you can go to see everywhere. Unlike the last time I came back, I had the task of Penglai Immortal Sect on my body, and the trip was too rushed.

Su Chen didn't want to be too shocked, so he stopped in the suburbs of Gusu County for dozens of miles, and fell from the flying sword with Anu, Taoyao, and Zhuang Luyi.

The two demon ancestors, Crab Ba and Shrimp Ninja, Su Chen also released the two of them from the demon gourd, but their transformation was not complete, and the carapace had not completely faded, so they could only be covered by a black robe.

The crab lord desperately compressed his demon body, and his figure was still as tall as one zhang, extremely burly and strong, like a small iron tower, and a pair of eyes like red lanterns.

The shrimp is half a foot tall, looks lean and strong, has sharp eyes, and looks like a living person.

They serve as two family guards, which is quite suitable.

Let the two of them fetch wood and make a wooden boat outside the city.

Su Chen and his entourage of six people took a flat boat and came to Gusu County down the river and anchored at the county wharf.

Ximen Wharf, as lively as in the past, is crowded one after another.

There are many merchant ships carrying rice and cloth moored near the wharf, and those tanned-skinned porters are busy loading and unloading goods.

On the wharf, there are many wealthy merchants, local tyrants, and high-rollers from the south to the north, but when they saw Su Chen's group of six people, the young man was dressed in a green shirt and escaped from the dust, and the three women were beautiful and fluttering like immortals. The two black-clad guards were almost inhuman.

There are countless talents in Jiangnan, but they have never seen such an outstanding person.

These merchants and heroes were all frightened and took the initiative to retreat away.

"Childe, Miss, do you want to take a sedan chair? The small sedan chair is the most stable and down-to-earth!"

A black-faced sedan chair driver didn't dare to look up when he saw their group of young ladies arriving at the dock by boat, but quickly nodded and asked humbly.

Su Chen glanced at him, a little familiar, and said strangely: "This little brother is a little familiar, but have you seen it?"

The black-faced sedan chair man was flattered, and hurriedly nodded his head, shook his head, and said, "Don't dare, just call the little old black head." The small ancestors have been mixed with the dock for generations, and the great-grandfather generation is a porter leader of the dock, who has met nobles and developed for a while. Our ancestors have black faces, all of which have been handed down from our ancestors. Anyone who has seen it on the docks knows. ”

"Oh, I see. The black-faced porter before was your great-grandfather, no wonder he was familiar. ”

Su Chen nodded lightly.

The black-faced palanquin man was stunned and cautious, "You... Ever seen the villain's great-grandfather?"

"Don't talk about that. ”

Su Chen casually threw a small piece of broken spirit stone to the sedan chair man and said, "Go, give the three young ladies in the back, and each prepare a small sedan chair." ”

Tao Yao and Zhuang Luyi probably haven't sat in a sedan chair, so let them try it.

As for himself, let's take a walk.

The black-faced sedan chair leader had never received a "stone" from a guest, and stared at the crystal clear stone in the rough palm for a moment, but quickly reacted.

This should be the "jade" only owned by rich and noble families, it is more valuable than gold!

"Okay!

The black-faced sedan chair man was ecstatic, and hurriedly shouted at more than a dozen young sedan chair drivers, and the big sedan chair carried three young ladies to follow behind the son.

On both sides of the street, all kinds of hawker stalls are soliciting business, selling fresh fruits and vegetables, all kinds of water and wine, large bowls of tofu flowers, colorful rock sugar gourds, steaming glutinous rice cakes, fragrant and smooth osmanthus cakes, and shortbreads that make people drool when they smell them...

There are also some stalls selling some origami umbrellas, lotus lanterns, juggling shadow puppet paper figures, clay lions... , dazzling, dazzling.

These fresh gadgets can't be seen in the world of cultivating immortals.

"Sister Anu, what is this?Can you eat it?!"

"Hey, what a beautiful gadget, how many spirit stones does this flower cloth doll sell?"

Tao Yao has never been to the mortal land, and she is very curious about everything in between, chattering non-stop, wanting to eat everything and buying everything.

"This doesn't use spirit stones, only copper plates! ”

Anu laughed.

"What is the copper plate, where can I exchange the spirit stone for the copper plate?"

"It's... I don't know. A spirit stone, it is estimated that it can be exchanged... Lots and lots of copper plates!"

Zhuang Luyi was not so curious, although she grew up in Penglai Immortal Sect, she occasionally went to the mortal world, and she was quite familiar with the mortal world.

It's a pity that the four of them have countless spirit stones in their storage bags, but none of them have a single tael of silver on them. You can't buy a sugar gourd, just give it a spirit stone.

In the end, Su Chen came up with an idea and asked Anu to take a piece of spirit stone to the pawnshop on the dock, saying that it was the spirit jade of the East China Sea, and it was to be pawned as gold and silver.

The pawnshop owner can be regarded as having a vision, seeing that Anu has a dusty temperament, he must be a rich and noble woman, and he will not fool him with fakes.

And the spirit stone in her hand is pure in texture and extremely smart, and the aura is almost overflowing, and it is best to make a close-fitting jade pendant.

The pawnshop owner was overjoyed and said that this jade could be pawned for ten taels of gold. In fact, ten taels of gold is just the price of an ordinary piece of jade, which is far worse than the spirit stone in front of him.

Anu didn't bother to care, and the gold was estimated to be enough for Anu for a long time.

The little things in the dock market are cheap, and most of them only cost one or twenty copper coins. One tael of gold can be exchanged for 10,000 copper coins.

They walked and bought, and after shopping around the West Gate Pier, they bought a lot of knick-knacks, but they didn't spend a single gold or two.

Su Chen walked through the lively Ximen Wharf and passed in front of the "Hanshan Temple", and couldn't help but stop for a moment.

In the past, the Hanshan Ancient Road, which was burned into a pair of ruins and rubble by fire under his anger, has been ordered by Lord Zhao Juzhen to be rebuilt into Hanshan Temple.

Outside the gate of Hanshan Temple, a stone tablet is engraved with Zhang Ji's "Fengqiao Night Park".

"The moon is falling and the sky is full of frost, and Jiang Feng is sleeping. ”

"Hanshan Temple outside the city of Gusu, the bell rings in the middle of the night to the passenger ship. ”

Su Chen looked at the stone tablet, stunned.

As a teenager, he was illiterate and did not understand what was carved on the stele.

I can't say the sorrow and sorrow in my heart.

Now, he looked at the stele, recalling the Buddha Xiao in the cold winter when he was more than ten years old, returning from fishing, accidentally hearing the conversation of his father and mother on the fishing boat, and enduring the pain to say goodbye to his father and mother, and went to Gusu City to live alone.

But it's bloody!

Su Chen stroked the stone tablet, closed his eyes, and his heart ached like a knife!

Anu, Tao Yao, Zhuang Luyi and others were all quiet and well-behaved behind him, not daring to disturb him.

They had never seen Su Chen look so gloomy and sad.

Anu once heard some of Su Chen's past in the mouth of Ah Ugly, and she was also quite sad in her heart. The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, just because he hasn't reached the sad place.

Su Chen's sadness in this life is probably all in this small inscription.

...

For a long time, Su Chen caressed the monument, opened his eyes, and sighed.

Nowadays, Hanshan Temple has long been left without Taoist priests, and only some monks go in and out, eating fasting and reciting Buddha.

Thinking of the real people of Hanshan in the past, he was also quite emotional.

If it was at the beginning, he didn't track down the water bandits, broke into the Hanshan Temple, and accidentally found a volume of the "Getaway" immortal cultivation code left by the real person of Hanshan.

Perhaps, he is also a mediocre swordsman, who has spent his life on the rivers and lakes of Wu County, and he looks up to no one more than the generation of grandmasters on the rivers and lakes of Wu County.

He will never embark on the ethereal road of seeking immortals, and he will travel all over the mountains and rivers to go to the Song Immortal City, to the Penglai Immortal Sect, and to the East China Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm to find the immortal fate.

Only then did I know that this side of the world is so magnificent that mortals can also be reborn into immortals and travel to fairyland.

Su Chen stopped in front of Hanshan Temple for a long time, and then went to Gusu County.

On the way to the county seat, Su Chen casually asked the black-faced sedan chair man about the current situation of the Medicine King Gang.

The black-faced palanquin man was confused, saying that there were many gangs in Gusu, but he had never heard of any "Medicine King Gang" in Gusu County.

Su Chen was stunned to know that since the death of the previous gang leader Sun Bai Hongxian, the Medicine King Gang had no successor, and it had completely declined in the rivers and lakes of Wujun, and disappeared completely along with the Ma Gang and the Giant Whale Gang.

He asked about the Aquila Gate again.

The black-faced sedan chair man knew about the Aquila Gate, and immediately his face was full of excitement and he kept talking.

Tianyingmen has been operating in Gusu County for a long time and still exists today.

Su Sanmei became a generation of grandmasters, took over the position of the previous Jackdaw's gang leader, and led the Heavenly Eagle Gate to prosper for twenty or thirty years, almost becoming the largest gang in Wu County, like the sky.

However, the second brother of Su won the champion and entered the court as a big official, and the Su family continued to have children entering the court, and the Su family was interested in developing in the official career, so naturally they gradually did not want to have too much to do with the rivers and lakes.

After Su Sanmei has been the master of the Tianying Gate for more than twenty or thirty years, for the future of the Su family, she has also faded out of the rivers and lakes, and no longer cares about the disputes between the rivers and lakes.

The Aquila Gate also gradually fell silent.

Forty or fifty years have passed.

Although this gang is still operating in the rivers and lakes of Wu County, it is no longer as powerful as it used to be. Many new gangs have risen in Wu County to compete for this piece of rivers and lakes.

Thirty years of rivers and lakes in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, a generation of new people for the old, this is also normal.

The black-faced sedan chair man is sent to the dock every day, and he is used to seeing these things on the rivers and lakes.

To Su Chen's surprise, the Sky Eagle Inn magically still existed.

He immediately decided to go to the Aquila Inn to rest.

The Sky Eagle Inn is at the intersection of the main street, and the hall is quite lively, gathering dozens of Jianghu guests from the south to the north, and it is still a favorite gathering place for high-rollers from all walks of life.

Whether it is the old Jianghu or those newcomer Jianghu disciples, they all like to drink wine and eat meat in big bowls here, and talk about interesting things on the rivers and lakes of Wujun, so happy.

Su Chen took Anu, Taoyao, Zhuang Luyi, as well as crab ba, shrimp ninja, etc., and walked into this lively Sky Eagle Inn.

A group of high-rollers in the inn were eating meat and drinking, and they all looked at Su Chen and the other six people who came in, and they were shocked for a while, and they were silent.

They are all long-term friends, and of course their eyes are sharp. Whether it's a merchant, a high roller, a powerful horn, or a fat sheep, you can tell at a glance.

But the young man and a few young ladies in front of him are peerless in the world, and their clothes are fluttering like fairies, and they have never seen them.

The two guards behind them were even more powerful and powerful... I'm afraid that the grandmasters of the Jianghu generation will not dare to provoke them.

Let these old rivers and lakes be shocked and awed at a glance, and they didn't even dare to look more.

After a long time, there were some slight sounds in the inn, as if they were talking in a low voice about this young brother and a few young ladies, who were the big people who actually drove in this small Gusu county.
