Cuitik came to Li Banfeng to do business.
Li Banfeng found a teahouse, called a private room, and had a detailed discussion with Cuitik.
He first asked a question: "Why did Chu Shaoqiang want to seize the territory of Moxiangdian?"
Cui Tike replied: "According to the information I have, Chu Shaoqiang is eager to get a piece of legitimate land. Under pressure from the state of Neizhou, he wants to find an easy target to attack."
Is Moxiangdian a soft persimmon?
Li Banfeng expressed his deep doubt: "The local god of the Moxiang store should be a literary cultivator, right?"
Cuitik nodded and said, "After coming here, I was influenced by this place and developed a great interest in the literature of Pro Province. This should be the influence of the local god through some means."
Li Banfeng took out a map that he bought on the street: "Moxiangdian is not a small place. It is rare to find a local god who can influence the entire land with his own abilities.
Wenxiu is one of the largest Taoist sects in Pro Province. The Taoist sect itself is very powerful. If Chu Shaoqiang wants to find an easy target, he probably won’t find this place.”
Cuitik said, "I have also had similar speculations, but according to the information your good friend has obtained, the local god here has encountered some kind of misfortune and has fallen into an extremely weak state."
My good friend.
He was talking about He Jiaqing.
"Is this news reliable? What kind of situation has the local god fallen into?"
Cuitik said: "My ancestor did not reveal more information. As for whether this news is reliable, he asked me to do a test."
Li Banfeng was very curious: "How to test it?"
"The method my master taught me is to find a place in Moxiangdian, spread a plague, kill all the locals, and see if the local gods will come out to stop it.
If the local god does not show up, it proves that your good friend's information is accurate, which also proves that Chu Shaoqiang will come to the Moxiang store at any time.
At that time, the master will have many choices. He can wait for Chu Shaoqiang to come and reap the benefits, or he can seize the Moxiang store before Chu Shaoqiang and wait for the opportunity. "
Li Banfeng asked: "You don't want to do this?"
"In no mood."
"Because you can't bear it?"
Cuitik shook his head and said, "I can't bear it, but I'm afraid that if I cause a disaster in the Moxiang store and the local god of the Moxiang store doesn't get into a bad state, then the person who gets into a bad state will probably be me.
Even if the local god didn't come out to punish me, as you said, Wen Xiu is the second largest sect in Pro Province, and Wen Xiu's forces will not let me go.
It follows that if I really did this, no matter what the result was, I would be the one who died.
I really want to kill all the people in the world with a plague, but the prerequisite is that I really have the strength to do so. Before I have that strength, I want to live a little longer."
Li Banfeng could understand Cuitik's situation.
"Under this situation, what kind of business can you do with me?"
"I want to find out the situation of the local god of the ink incense shop in a more normal and gentle way.
But you know that the Prussian state is not very friendly to foreigners, and I am not good at reconnaissance. When I was hunting you down, I had to use the resources of Daboynes.
I hope you can help me find out some information about the local god. In exchange, I can reveal some information about He Jiaqing to you."
Li Banfeng asked: "What kind of information can you provide? If it's not of much value, I don't want to waste my time."
Cuitik said: "The information I provide to you and the information you provide to me must be of equal value. This is not the first time we have done business. We can definitely reach an agreement on this point. I also know your abilities and methods. In this matter, I will not risk my life."
Li Banfeng turned the teacup in his hand and said, "It's not so easy to find out about the situation of the local god. I may only be able to find out part of the results."
Cuitik nodded and said, "I understand. Due to our cooperative relationship, I might as well tell you the truth again. I don't intend to tell my master everything, but I need to make up a relatively credible lie.
The local god's residence, cultivation, or even just a name, as long as one piece of information is true, the lie is credible.
Of course, if you eventually discover the true situation of the local god, our transaction can be upgraded. I can tell my ancestor some targeted information and let him make the right or wrong response.
After Chu Shaoqiang, my ancestor, your friend, and the local god of the Moxiang store start fighting, perhaps there will be even bigger surprises waiting for us."
Li Banfeng smiled and said, "You want to fish in troubled waters?"
Cuitik said: "I think it is disrespectful to the fish to leave such delicious fish in muddy water."
"That depends on how muddy and deep the water is."
Cuitik picked up the teacup and took a sip: "No matter how muddy or deep the water is, I have to go in. I have no choice.
But you are different. You can choose not to go into the water. Even if you go into the water, you can always get out of the water. You will not suffer any loss in this business."
Li Banfeng looked out the window. He could still see the poetry club from before. “Will you go to that poetry club again?”
"Yes," Cuitik nodded. "There aren't many places where you can get information. It's a good place to go. Even if the girls there don't like me, at least I can still find some folk customs and anecdotes."
"If you see the poems I left in the poetry book, it means I have found the answer. Wait for me at the poetry club and I will find a chance to contact you."
Li Banfeng left the teahouse, walked around the Moxiang shop, and returned to Yanshazhai at night.
Tan Fucheng was reading a book in the yard. He didn't know many words and had a dictionary beside him, so he had a hard time reading.
He pulled a chair for Li Banfeng: "Seventh Master, sit down."
Li Banfeng did not sit down. Tan Fucheng was in charge of the repair. If he sat in his chair, it might cause trouble. It was not that he did not trust Tan Fucheng, but that Tan Fucheng's condition seemed to be a little abnormal.
"Seventh Master, over the years my cultivation has become higher and higher, my business has grown bigger and bigger, I have bought more than a dozen houses, and married more than a dozen wives. I thought I had enjoyed all the blessings in the world, but now I realize that I have wasted half my life.
All the truths of the world are in this book. If I hadn’t seen it today, my life would have been lived in vain!"
What book had such a profound impact on Tan Fucheng?
The book was very thin. Li Banfeng looked at the cover and found out it was "Hundred Family Surnames".
This is hard to understand.
"What truths about the world does this Hundred Family Surnames tell us?"
"Seventh Master, I can't explain it clearly. I don't understand. I'm too stupid. Wait until I have thoroughly read the book, and then I'll tell you!"
Several people around Tan Fucheng were reading books, Xiao Yeci was also reading a book, and Lu Yuanxin was feeding insects in the house.
When Lu Chunying saw Li Banfeng, she said happily, "Seventh Brother, there is business to be done in Moxiang Store. There are a lot of farmland outside the city, and there are many cultivated lands. Every year, a lot of grain is sold out. If you do grain business here, you can make a lot of money.
It’s just that people who stay here for too long will become a little strange. I don’t know what’s wrong with Brother Tan and the others. They are so busy reading that they don’t even want to eat.”
It seems that Lu Chunying went to many places this afternoon. Li Banfeng asked: "Don't you want to read a book?"
Lu Chunying shook her head and said, "I watch it with my mom at home every day, isn't it enough? It's a rare opportunity for me to come out, so I have to accumulate some cultivation."
The Moxiang Store had no impact on Lu Chunying and Lu Yuanxin, and it is still unclear whether it had any impact on Xiao Yeci.
After returning to Suishenju, Li Banfeng took out the Judge's Brush and asked, "Is Moxiangdian your home?"
The judge's pen did not answer.
Li Banfeng asked again: "Who is the local god of Moxiang Store?"
The judge's pen remained silent for a long time, and the record player beside him spoke up: "I know about this. The local god of the Moxiang store is a wise scholar, one of the leaders of literary cultivation. He has extremely high combat power and is extremely smart. You can find many rumors and anecdotes about him in the Moxiang store."
Li Banfeng took out the book he bought at Lu's Bookstore and said, "Madam, take a look. Is the record here true?"
The record player flipped through the book briefly and said, "My dear, I don't know much about the affairs of the Huiye scholar, but the rumors from various places are almost the same.
The wise scholar is named Murong Gui. He can guess someone's intention with three sentences and can guess someone's heart with five sentences. His literary skills have reached the pinnacle, and his martial arts foundation should not be underestimated.
He is good at using a judge's pen. Once injured by the weapon, although it will not kill him, his fighting ability will be completely lost in an instant."
Hong Ying said, "Isn't this referring to that cheap pen of ours?"
The record player asked, "How can you be sure?"
Hong Ying was stunned: "Evil woman, are you testing me? Do you even need to ask this? If I use poison, the opponent can still struggle for a while. If I use lazy cultivation skills, the opponent will be too lazy to fight, so won't he lose all his fighting power?
Lazy cultivation technique plus judge's pen, isn't that the cheap pen we have?
Qilang, this cheap pen is probably going back to its old master, so you better be careful."
Li Banfeng looked at the judge's pen and said, "Do you want to go home?"
"Hmph." The judge wrote a word in reply.
"If you want to go home, I can let you go."
Hong Ying hurriedly said, "Qilang, we can't let him go. He knows so much about us. If he leaks it to his master, we will be in danger!"
The judge's pen was shaking with anger, and he blurted out, "Then don't take me out!"
Seven exact words!
These seven words fully express the anger and dissatisfaction of the judge's pen.
"Don't be afraid, I trust you," Li Banfeng said calmly, "Abi, if you really want to go home, let's sign a contract and promise not to mention our past. I will personally send you back."
"Hmph." Judge Pen turned around and ignored Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng thought for a moment and said, "Are you afraid that I will find Huiye scholar Murong Gui through you and bring disaster to him?"
The judge's pen said nothing.
Li Banfeng said: "If I find Murong Gui, it will be his luck. If Green Water Beggar or Chu Shaoqiang finds him, it will be a disaster.
Not only is Murong Gui in trouble, the entire Moxiang store is in trouble, so you should weigh this matter carefully."
Late at night, Li Banfeng was sleeping soundly with the record player in his arms, and all his magic weapons were resting.
The judge's pen stood up from the table quietly without making any sound.
He flew into the air and looked down at Li Banfeng silently.
The glove was under the bed, silently grasping the dagger.
He woke up.
Even if the judge's pen didn't make any sound, it could wake him up.
According to Gloves' judgment, if the record player is woken up now, Judge Pen will take the initiative to attack Li Banfeng.
But if he just defended himself, the gloves were sure that they were faster than the Judge's Pen, and the record player would wake up when he heard the noise.
The judge's pen hovered for a moment and woke up Li Banfeng.
"Seven, I want to discuss something with you."
