…

Because she had other things on her mind, Mu Qiuhuang did not stay in Tingzhou City for long.

After eating Tan Baiming's welcome banquet and going to the military camp as usual accompanied by Tan Baiming, Mu Qiuhuang took Su Xiaoxiao and left Tingzhou City. As for the thousand Blood Phoenix Banner sergeants and the disabled

Yun and others were all left in Tingzhou, but he still took the four ghosts with him.

…

…

After leaving Tingzhou City and passing through Yunxi City, they headed westward. The reason why they headed westward was because he set the final destination as the Xiliehou Mansion in the land of Qinlu. Originally, he went all the way westward.

It was planned that after attending the Shangri Festival banquet in Fengling City, she would go directly to the Xiliehou Mansion to cancel the engagement. Later, it was because she learned that Miss Ji’s family was not in the mansion that she canceled her trip to Qinlu...

...In his previous conversation with Li Taibai, he also learned that Ji Ruoxue should be on the way back to Xiliehou Mansion, so this time he planned to travel from north to west, and eventually, he and Miss Ji's family

The marriage contract issue was completely resolved.

After traveling westward for more than twenty days, they arrived at Qingcheng.

The reason why I came to Qingcheng was not only because it was the only way to Qinlu, but also because Huang Ling heard that Mo Bai, the Sichuan swordsman who ranked eighth among the top ten masters in the world, was here.

. He had said before that he wanted to get rid of the addiction of being a knight errant in the arena, and hone his skills through competition with the masters of the arena. Who said that he would not really be prepared to find someone like Su Xiaoxiao?

The top ten masters came one by one, but since they happened to meet each other, they naturally had to have a good competition.

…

Qingyunju is an inn. Although its scale is much smaller than the inn Mu Qiuhuang rented during his stay in Fengling City, it is already the largest and best inn in Qingcheng.

The information handed over by Huang Ling said that the Sichuan swordsman Mo Bai has been living in Room A of Tianzi in Qingyun Residence for more than a month.

…

"Does the guest officer work in a hotel or stay in a hotel?"

As soon as Mu Qiuhuang and Su Xiaoxiao walked into the door of Qingyun Residence, a waiter approached them diligently.

"Prepare some food for me first and pick out the best wine and food. As for staying in the hotel, we will wait until we finish eating." Su Xiaoxiao said to the waiter.

After sending away the waiter, Mu Qiuhuang and Su Xiaoxiao found a table by the window and sat down.

Mu Qiuhuang looked around and found that Qingyun Residence has three floors. The decoration design is no different from that of an ordinary inn. The first floor is a place for guests to eat and drink, and the second and third floors are places where accommodation is provided, because it is the right time.

It was afternoon, so there were not many diners sitting on the first floor, only a few scattered tables.

"Will Mo Bai be at the inn now?" Mu Qiuhuang asked in a low voice.

"Probably not. According to Huang Ling's information, he goes out every day during the day and only comes back in the evening." Su Xiaoxiao said.

"Oh." Mu Qiuhuang responded, and then asked: "According to the rules of your world, how should I compete with him?"

Su Xiaoxiao picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea for Mu Qiuhuang, and then said: "If it were a competition under normal circumstances, Young Master should first declare a challenge, and wait until the other party accepts the challenge, and then confirm the terms of the competition.

There are a series of things including time, place, just person, etc. However, the other party can also choose to refuse to fight."

Mu Qiuhuang picked up the tea cup and took a sip. After listening to Su Xiaoxiao's words, he asked in surprise: "It's so troublesome? You actually have to make a reservation for a time and place, and the other party can refuse to accept the challenge? How about that?"

What should I do if Mo Bai refuses to fight? Is it possible that our trip will be in vain? "

"That's not the case." Su Xiaoxiao knew that Mu Qiuhuang really didn't understand the rules of the martial arts, so he went on to explain: "What Xiao Xiaogang said is the normal rules of martial arts competition. It is completely unnecessary for the young master to do this.

This time is equivalent to 'kicking the hall', and when you see Mo Bai, the swordsman from Shu, you can just do it directly."

"Oh, it turns out it can be that simple. So, what's the difference between the two?" Mu Qiuhuang asked.

"The difference is that a martial arts competition only determines the outcome, not life and death, while a kickboxing match is a battle of life and death..." Su Xiaoxiao explained.

"Oh." Mu Qiuhuang nodded and said, "Then it's better to play in the gym. Only by facing life and death directly without leaving any room for error can you better hone yourself."

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "What the young master said is absolutely true."

While the two were talking, the waiter came up with wine and food, and soon the entire table was filled.

Looking at a table full of good wine and delicious food, Mu Qiuhuang couldn't help but feel a little confused. He stopped the waiter who was about to leave and said, "Waiter, I'm really confused about something. I hope you can clear it up."

?”

"What did the guest say? I don't know a single big character. How can I answer the guest's question?" The waiter smiled and was about to turn around and leave.

"It's okay, just listen. If you can really answer my questions, I will be rewarded." Mu Qiuhuang said with a smile.

When he heard that there was a reward, the waiter also stopped his preparations, turned around, and said coquettishly: "My guest, please give me your instructions. I must know everything and tell you everything..."

Su Xiaoxiao was looking at Mu Qiuhuang with curiosity at this time, wondering why he was stopping the waiter? According to Huang Ling's information, this inn has been open in the local area for more than ten years. The waiter,

There should be no problem with the identity of the shopkeeper, right?

Mu Qiuhuang asked: "What I don't understand is that the two brothers have ordinary looks and average clothes. How dare you serve such a table of good wine and food? Aren't you afraid that we won't have money to pay the bill later?"

Did you eat for free?"

Hearing Mu Qiuhuang's words of inquiry, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel strange. In order to make it easier for them to travel without drawing attention to themselves, both of them had gone through simple disguises and dressed very ordinary.

He got a woman disguised as a man... He just told the waiter about good wine and good food, but judging from the food here, they are all high-end ingredients... Isn't he really afraid that the two of him will be freeloaders? Or is he?

Is there something wrong with this meal? Thinking of this, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but get worried.

After hearing Mu Qiuhuang's words, the waiter couldn't help but froze, and thought to himself, it's okay to say that you guys are ordinary in appearance, but how are you ordinary in your clothes? When he turned around, he looked at the two of them.

With a murderous look in his eyes, the waiter couldn't help but respectfully said: "Your Majesty, you are really good at joking. Although your clothes look ordinary, they are made of fine silk fabrics and your boots. How can this be so bad?"

You have to spend more than two taels of silver, right? The price you paid for this outfit alone is enough to pay for this table of food and drinks..."

After hearing the waiter's explanation, Mu Qiuhuang and Su Xiaoxiao were relieved. They looked at each other and saw the embarrassment in each other's eyes. In order to keep a low profile this time, they even deliberately removed the original clothes on their bodies in order to keep a low profile this time.

The Shu brocade he wore was replaced by silk, and the deerskin boots were replaced by

Cowhide... But I never thought that this outfit, which in my eyes is already extremely cheap, is actually too expensive in the eyes of ordinary people?

"This is the reward for you, go down!" Su Xiaoxiao touched a piece of broken silver and handed it to the waiter.

"Thank you, sir, for the reward. If you have any requests, please let me know." The waiter couldn't help but smile as he took the reward.

"Young Master..." Su Xiaoxiao's face couldn't help but turn red.

"Let's eat first!" Mu Qiuhuang sighed and said with self-reproach, "I thought too well of ordinary people's lives."

"Shall I go out and buy two pairs of cheap cloth clothes?" Su Xiaoxiao asked casually.

Mu Qiuhuang waved her hand and said: "Forget it, we are already living in the clouds. No matter how we pretend, we are only lower than we think. After all, it is impossible to really be as low as dust...

But little do they know that in their eyes, no matter how low we are, we are always in the clouds..."

Mu Qiuhuang's words were hard to pronounce, but Su Xiaoxiao understood. She knew that Mu Qiuhuang was sympathizing with these ordinary people...

"Let's eat!" Mu Qiuhuang said calmly, and then picked up the bowl and chopsticks.

When Su Xiaoxiao saw this, he stopped talking, picked up the bowls and chopsticks and started eating. Although the taste of the wine and food was not outstanding, it was still better than dry food, not to mention that the two of them were already hungry at this time. Mu Qiu

Huang is going to compete with Mo Bai, the Sichuan swordsman later, so he must eat and drink enough first.

——————

While they were eating, Mo Bai, who was about to return to Qingyun Residence on another street, was blocked by someone.

The name Mo Bai sounds very elegant, but in fact, Mo Bai is already over sixty years old. Although his cultivation level has reached the ninth level with the blessing of elixirs, opportunities, etc., in fact, he has only

He has just entered the ninth level. The reason why he can occupy a place in the ranking of the top ten masters in the world this time is because he bribed his opponent and was very fair in the ranking battle of the top ten masters. It is also because of that purchase.

Ranking had spent all his savings, which is why he now had no place to stay and had to live in an inn... Although he spent all his money to buy such a ranking, Mo Bai did not regret it at all. Because

, the benefits of becoming one of the top ten masters in the world are also obvious. Since his reputation has been spread, his worth has also risen accordingly. Take for example the fact that he went to the martial arts gym today to help out! I heard that it was two

In order to completely resolve the dispute caused by the domestic martial arts gyms competing for a piece of land, the two martial arts gyms decided to have a martial arts competition. Mo Bai was invited by one of the martial arts gyms to help out... When the other martial arts gym heard that

"The top ten masters in the world... Mo Bai" actually surrendered directly when he said these words. After all, the ranking of the top ten masters in the world is quite bluffing for these third-rate martial arts gangs... Mo Bai is going there today.

The advantage of helping out is the extra banknotes in your pocket.

…

"You two stinking Taoist priests have tricked me. Do you know who I am? I am Mo Bai, the swordsman from Shu who ranks eighth among the top ten masters in the world. If you still don't get out of the way, don't blame me.

Let you two suffer a bloody disaster first..." Mo Bai cursed angrily.

It turned out that just as Mo Bai was walking down the street contentedly holding the banknote in his sleeve and preparing to go back to the inn, he suddenly met two Taoist priests, an old one and a young one. The young Taoist priest actually stood in his way.
