Chapter 169 Yangzhou Prefecture



In the underworld, fights and murders are common. As soon as the situation settled down, the six heroes of Qinghe County immediately ran out of the inn to collect the body of their eldest brother who had died tragically. This time, they didn't even have time to eat. They immediately went to the wooden shop in Jiaqing Market to temporarily order a coffin to contain the body of their eldest brother.

Normally, when something like this happened, these brothers would definitely avenge their eldest brother's death. However, the murderer, the leader of the Five Ghosts of Meishan, had already been killed by Qin Yuesheng's sword. So, their revenge was achieved, and there was nothing left for these brothers to do.

After some discussion, the six heroes rented a carriage at the post station in the market, and assigned two people to transport the coffin back to their hometown Qinghe County, so that the eldest brother's body could be buried in his hometown and rest in peace.

As for the corpses of the Five Ghosts of Meishan in the inn, a group of tall and strong men who looked like iron towers soon came out from the back kitchen under the leadership of the scholar.

All of them were shirtless, wearing the kind of leather aprons worn by butchers in the market. They then lifted the corpses of the Five Ghosts of Meishan one by one and moved them into the kitchen.

Soon, another thin waiter ran over with a rag and a bucket and began to clean the bloodstains on the floor.

Looking at their expressionless faces and calm demeanor, it was obvious that this was not the first time they had seen such a scene.

Lian Baishan quickly finished the food he ordered, put a handful of silver on the table, and left the inn without saying a word. He left so quickly that no one had time to react.

Qin Yuesheng glanced at Qin Huan. This guy had completely lost his appetite. The caisson above his head was still dripping with blood. If Qin Yuesheng had not been a man who had seen many storms, he would probably have found it difficult to adapt so calmly.

After dinner, Qin Yuesheng went to the room he had booked and took a shower, washing away all the dust and fatigue. Then he lay down on the bed and fell asleep comfortably.

The experience of traveling in a horse-drawn carriage is not a pleasant one. Although the Baoqing Official Road is spacious, the potholes on the road are still fresh in people's memory. Especially since the carriage has no shock-absorbing function, the passengers' experience can be seen as miserable after a long journey overnight.

Proper rest is still necessary. This is why Qin Yuesheng booked two rooms in this inn. He wanted to take a rest and have a good sleep first, and then set off again after he was fully rested.

The next day.

"Waiter, give me a portion of steamed beef to take away." Qin Yuesheng shouted.

Next, if you want to go to Yangzhou Prefecture, you will have to travel a long way by boat and carriage. It will not be possible without some food to eat on the way.

Seeing Qin Yuesheng about to leave, the three disciples of Hongyan Villa who were eating steamed buns and drinking porridge hurriedly stood up to see him off. It was obvious that the three of them were impressed by Qin Yuesheng's strength.

People are like this. If someone is a little stronger than you, they will be jealous, but if someone is much stronger, so much so that they themselves feel they can't catch up, they will only show respect and admiration.

"Goodbye, Young Master Qin."

"Young Master Qin, we'll see you at Qiushui's house."

"Have a safe journey, Young Master Qin."

Seeing these three people standing at the door of the inn and waving their hands enthusiastically, Qin Yuesheng nodded calmly, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Goodbye, the three of you. I will be leaving first."

The Jiangnan martial arts gathering hosted by the Qiu Shui family will begin in two or three days. This is Qin Yuesheng's first time to Yangzhou Prefecture, so he has to arrive in advance to understand the local terrain and conditions to avoid getting lost.

After arriving at the Jiaqingji post station and renting a new carriage, the two of them set out again on the road to Yangzhou Prefecture.

Yangzhou Prefecture is located in the south of the Yangtze River, which is equivalent to the center. There is no need to say much about its prosperity.

When the outline of Yangzhou City appeared on the horizon, even Qin Yuesheng couldn't help but be astonished and secretly shocked.

The tall gray-white city walls and the towers on top of them are as tall as mountains, just like a giant ancient beast crawling on the earth, reaching up to the sky and stretching to the left and right, so that one can hardly see the end of the city.

"This is Yangzhou Prefecture!" Qin Huan said in shock.

Seeing the expressions of the two men, the driver knew it was their first time here, and he couldn't help but introduce them: "My two lords, Yangzhou is a vast and complex place. People from all over the world live here, and all kinds of strange and bizarre things can be found with money. After entering the city, you two must be very careful, especially with your bags and parcels. You must pay extra attention to them, otherwise you might lose something if you are not careful."

"Are you talking about pickpockets?" Qin asked.

"That's right. This place is full of all kinds of people. There are thieves, robbers, kidnappers, swindlers, and bewitchers. There are all kinds of people here, and their methods are also numerous and complicated. It's different from other places. You must be careful when you go out. Don't go to places you are not familiar with, especially places with few people."

"Thank you for the reminder, old man." Qin Yuesheng found that the driver's words were very pertinent and thanked him immediately.

With Qin Yuesheng's current strength, if ordinary people dare to attack him, they are basically stupid mothers opening the door to stupidity, stupid to the extreme. There is no need to worry too much.

But others remind you of these matters out of kindness, and you must be grateful for this kindness.

Qin Huan also quickly bowed and said, "Thank you, old man."

The closer Qin Yuesheng got to the city of Yangzhou, the more he felt the majesty of this city. Not only could the entrance gate accommodate ten carriages side by side, but the height of the gate itself was at least twice that of Qingyang City. Anyone who saw it suddenly felt inexplicably insignificant.

"Cousin Yuesheng, Yangzhou Prefecture is so prosperous. The streets are so wide and neat, and the shops and houses on the roadside are so gorgeous. It's really..." Qin was lying on the window of the carriage. He was dazzled for a moment and had no suitable words to describe the prosperity of Yangzhou he saw.
