(I took a day off from work today. I'll have breakfast, take a break, and continue working!)

After this incident in which the Tianmu Cult stronghold was destroyed, Zhou Qing would basically not be bothered again.

He has already been awarded the prize he deserves.

Those people in Qinghua County are in charge, and how the county magistrate should punish them is not Zhou Qing's business.

After the matter was over, Lu Qingmo found Bai Ruoyue who was waiting somewhere else, and took the two of them towards the city.

"That Wu Duguan probably didn't mean to target you." Lu Qingmo said on the way:

"When I was studying in the county city, I got to know this Wu Duguan. He was the deputy Duguan at that time."

"He values ​​rules the most and upholds the laws of Qi. He hates people who are lawless and don't follow the rules the most."

"Because of this temperament, he offended many people."

"The Ghost and God Department is closely related to Xuandu Temple, but the Dingwu Department is not like that. They are in charge of appointments, and Xuandu Temple generally does not interfere in order to avoid taboos."

Zhou Qing seemed to be thinking about something. No wonder this steward Wu dared to say that the disciples of Xuandu Temple must also abide by the rules.

It was because of his upright character, and also because Dingwu Division was not under the jurisdiction of Xuandu Temple.

Logically speaking, Xuandu Temple is the state religion. Even if he does not control Dingwu Division, most of the warriors in Dingwu Division must be afraid of him.

But there are some people in this world who are as stubborn as a bull.

"With this kind of personality, and having offended so many people, how did he get promoted?" Bai Ruoyue asked curiously.

"His father is the governor of the Dingwu Division of the state."

Lu Qingmo said something lightly, leaving Zhou Qing silent.

I was naive.

Even if he is really a stubborn bull, he is a stubborn bull with a powerful background.

Soon, the three arrived at their destination.

Qianbingfang! "This is where the best weaponsmiths in the county are." Lu Qingmo said:

"Your silver essence and lapis lazuli liquid will be refined here."

The receptionist respectfully took the three people to the reception room and served them tea.

Soon, heavy footsteps were heard, the door of the reception room opened, and the temperature of the entire space seemed to rise a little.

The person who came in was a white-haired man with messy hair and reddish skin.

"Master Yuan." Lu Qingmo spoke.

"It is a great honor to have the presence of Lu Duguan here."

Master Yuan was followed by two people holding a wooden box.

"Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission and have not wasted those precious materials. Manager Lu can take a look and see if he is satisfied."

He grabbed the wooden box and handed it over. Zhou Qing quickly took it and opened it at Lu Qingmo's suggestion.

Inside the wooden box was a sword about three feet seven inches long, shining with a cold light, with a straight golden line in the middle of the sword.

Just by looking at it, you can feel the sharpness of the sword.

“Nice sword!”

Bai Ruoyue spoke up beside her.

Zhou Qing picked up the sword and saw a silver line in the middle of the other side of the sword.

This is due to the use of liquid gold and silver essence.

The gold and silver complement each other, shining brightly, and are full of a sense of solidity and indestructibility.

"Because the sword is made of good materials, this sword can be considered a top-grade sword among all martial arts weapons." Master Yuan introduced: "If we can find suitable materials in the future, it may be possible to improve it to a higher level."

"Thank you, Master Yuan." Zhou Qing thanked him sincerely.

"No need to be polite, it's just a transaction." Master Yuan waved his hand.

"You can give it a name, and it will be with you for a long time to come."

Naming...

Zhou Qing was in deep thought.

He planned to inlay the two gems he had obtained before, one of ice and one of fire, to dominate the world.

Enchanted gems are magical, a perfect blend of ice and fire.

So it's called the Sword of Joy and Sorrow? Not right.

Zhou Qing looked at Bai Ruoyue and decided to give this glorious task to the senior sister.

He provided the materials for this weapon, Aunt Mo found the weaponsmith, and now the senior sister is here too.

This is a story of three people, and he wanted to give the eldest sister a sense of participation.

It’s definitely not because he is bad at naming.

"Will you let me name it?" Bai Ruoyue was stunned, then a little excited, thought for a while and said: "Then let's call it Taibai!"

"Uh, Master's sword?"

"His sword has another name, and mine is not this either. So it is decided that it will be you, Junior Brother."

"Well, the sword's name is Taibai."

Zhou Qing did not refuse. This name was fine and his requirements were not high.

Zhou Qing and the other two didn't stay in Qianbingfang for long and left directly.

Then Lu Qingmo returned to the Department of Ghosts and Gods alone because he had something to do.

"Come on, Junior Brother, I'll take you somewhere!"

Bai Ruoyue excitedly took Zhou Qing through many twists and turns and finally arrived at a busy street.

"Where is this place?"

"It's a place where warriors and cultivators can trade freely." Bai Ruoyue said excitedly, "Here you can buy the same or even better treasures at a lower price than in other chambers of commerce, but you may also be cheated."

Zhou Qing understood. Isn't this the most classic of all in the extraordinary world, the market town?

Of course, although it is a classic among classics, the existence of a market town is actually an inevitable outcome.

The existence of the market town has, to some extent, resolved the contradiction between the practitioners' growing material needs and the backward social production.

It can also fully meet the needs of some practitioners to deal with the dirt after killing people and stealing treasures.

"Big sister, you come to a place like this, aren't you afraid of being cheated?"

"Or do you have special skills that allow you to identify treasures?"

Bai Ruoyue shook her head, "I don't have such a special skill, but you do!"

"Didn't you rely on your intuition to get a treasure from the Wanxing Chamber of Commerce the last time you came to the county city?"

“Maybe it will work here!”

"I'm already here."

"I can't do anything about you."

Zhou Qing guessed that the eldest sister’s dream of becoming a female knight might have struck again.

Unfortunately, after visiting all the stalls, I still couldn’t find any reaction when I saw gemstones.

Even if some things were exaggerated by the stall owners and were the only ones in the world, Bai Ruoyue would still be moved and would remain silent when seeing gems.

Sure enough, in places like this, except for the legitimate sellers, nine out of ten are scammers, and the remaining ones are preparing to be scammers.

No wonder Yuan Fang didn’t bring Zhou Qing here last time.

"Junior brother, can you do it?"

"…It's not that I can't do it, it's just that there really aren't any treasures left here that have been covered in dust. Senior Sister, please don't come here again in the future."

Zhou Qing has already figured out some of the mechanisms of the Gemstone. It seems that this thing will not react to treasures displayed in the open.

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

Bai Ruoyue was a little discouraged and left in a depressed mood. The two of them went to Wanxing Chamber of Commerce again.

She came to the county town this time for an important matter. She needed to buy some healing pills and other things to prepare for entering Black Mountain later.

When Zhou Qing was accompanying Bai Ruoyue to buy pills, someone came up to them and greeted Zhou Qing.

"Brother, it's fate that we meet again."

When Zhou Qing saw it, he remembered who this person was.

The last time he came to Wanxing Chamber of Commerce, he met Huang Niantian, the person who didn’t get along well with Yuan Fang.

Zhou Qing nodded, but he noticed that the person next to Huang Nianfen kept his eyes on Bai Ruoyue.

Bai Ruoyue also noticed it and glared at the man.

Zhou Qing was secretly angry and blocked the man's sight. The man looked at Zhou Qing, frowned and wanted to speak, but was held down by Huang Niantian.

"My brother is so rude. I apologize on his behalf," Huang Niantian said.

"Brother, why are you apologizing? I didn't do anything." The man spoke, extremely arrogant and looking down on others.

"Even if I did do something, you don't have to apologize."

"If you don't need the mouth anymore, you can go to Qianbingfang and have it melted down." Zhou Qing said with a cold expression.

"You..." The man was furious, but before he could say anything this time, he was pulled away by Huang Niantian with an ugly look on his face.

"I'm sorry, brother. Next time I come, I'll personally apologize to you. I'll definitely discipline him when I get back."

Zhou Qingli ignored Huang Niantian and had no good impression of either of them.

Do you think you can just look at my senior sister casually?

"Who is that? Do you know him?" Bai Ruoyue came over and asked, staring at the backs of the two men with a fierce look in her eyes.

If it wasn't forbidden to fight here, she would have slapped him.

"It's irrelevant."

"I saw him by chance last time I came to the county town. The older one is called Huang Nian Nian. I don't know what the other one is, or maybe he's not a thing."

"Surname Huang? They should be the Huang family. My father told me that they are a big family in the county town."

"Who cares what big family it is? It's just a brainless thing." Zhou Qing was very unhappy.

Huang Niantian looked normal, but who knew his brother was such a person.

People are really diverse. The nine sons of a dragon are all really different.

Zhou Qing thought about it, extended his mental power, caught up with the Huang brothers, kept a safe distance, and could vaguely hear the conversation between the Huang brothers.

"Brother, why are you stopping me? I don't know where this wild boy came from, but he dares to disobey me. I must teach him a lesson today!"

"I don't care how you play on weekdays, but can you control your temper at the critical moment?"

"Their identities are not simple. They are different from those women you killed and those people you bullied before!"

"Who is our Huang family afraid of in Tianyue County?"

"You idiot, you are going to piss me off to death. If your mother hadn't asked you to follow me, I wouldn't have paid any attention to you!"

"If you ignore me, I will..."

The two of them walked away from the Chamber of Commerce. Zhou Qing withdrew his mental power and smiled coldly.

Idiot.

It turns out they are birds of a feather. Neither of them is a good person.

Zhou Qing called someone from the Wanxing Chamber of Commerce.

"Who were those two people just now?"

"The young masters of the Huang family, Huang Mingnian and Huang Mingri."

Zhou Qing kept the latter name in mind.

Mr. Zhou is narrow-minded and holds grudges.

If we meet again in another place, I won’t give up so easily.

The elixirs that Bai Ruoyue needed were quite precious, so she bought them all on the second floor.

When Bai Ruoyue was paying the bill, Manager Lin, who was in the cubicle, suddenly appeared and gave her a discount.

"Mr. Zhou, nice to meet you again." Manager Lin smiled kindly at Zhou Qing.

"Manager Lin, you're putting me in a difficult position." Zhou Qing smiled helplessly.

"We are all following the rules. Don't worry, there won't be any problems. It's just a token of our appreciation."

"Manager Lin, you are really interesting."

After leaving the Chamber of Commerce, Bai Ruoyue said in surprise:

"Junior brother, you have such a big face, but the discount here is even bigger than my father's?"

"It's not that I have a lot of face, it's Aunt Mo's. Last time, Aunt Mo and I came together, and Manager Lin remembered me."

"But Master, do you get discounts when you buy things here?"

“Of course, with my father’s strength, or the Ghost and God Department, all of these people are in charge, and the Wanxing Chamber of Commerce will treat them in this way.”

"A little discount may not drive a strong man away, but at least it won't make him an enemy."

It seems that there is a reason why the Wanxing Chamber of Commerce has been able to grow to such a scale.

However, the most important reason is definitely the support of the strong man on the Mountain and River Common People List.

The most powerful person in the world, every word and action of his is the might of heaven.

A real man should be like this!
