Chapter 34 I've seen her in my dreams, the beautiful and charming junior sister.
The journey was uneventful, and the group returned to the capital safely.
Liu Qingci brought a large stack of memorials written by Zhuge Zhengwo overnight to the palace to report on his duties. He also took the opportunity to show off his experiences along the way to Liu Dinghuan, saying that the trip had been very enjoyable.
It broadened my horizons and I could even find someone to fight with. Apart from a few third wheels, such as Yin Moumou, Qin Moumou, and Cui Moumou, everything on the road was perfect.
Yin Susu went to the dock to check the accounts.
Most of the goods that the Eagle Sect brought back from overseas were transported to various prefectures by waterway. The Ziwei Hall's daily work mainly involved dealing with the docks.
The "Bangbangbang" at the Beijing docks was an affiliated branch of the Ziwei Hall. The "Bangbangbang" were the laborers who carried bags, rushed to catch trucks, and delivered goods at the docks.
Most of these people are local residents, and the vast majority of them are unaware that they belong to a "gang" and simply follow the orders of the "foreman" to work.
It must be said that Yin Susu has a sharp eye; she immediately identified the most suitable gang to form at the capital's docks. Even someone as powerful as Lei Sun wouldn't dare to provoke them.
Lei Sun's attack on Su Mengzhen was a "gangland feud," and Lei Sun's sending men to deal with the "Bangbang Gang" was "massacring innocent civilians in the capital," which constituted "rebellion."
The elite troops have just been dispatched, and the God of Catchers should be taking the Four Great Constables to the Six and a Half Hall headquarters to reason with them!
The Sky Eagle Cult is incredibly wealthy, and Yin Susu's favorite pastime is to lavishly spend money. The salaries are extremely high, and auditing the accounts is just a formality to see if there are any deductions.
Qin Nanqin took a secret little notebook and went to Tingxuelou to tell Yang Yan about everything she had seen and heard along the way, without omitting a single word.
Xu Qingya led his horse, dog, and hawk back to his small kennel, delivered the old wine to the stable, put out the feed and spirits, and then sped off to his bedroom.
"Finally home! I'm so tired!"
Xu Qingya stretched and was about to push open the door to go back to his little nest for a nap when he suddenly felt a kind of energy he had never encountered before and couldn't help but look at Doubao'er.
Doubao had already sensed the scent of outsiders, but it smelled the fragrance of a girl. Considering Xu Qingya's recent actions, Doubao did not give any warning.
Hearing footsteps, the woman inside cheerfully opened the door, revealing large, watery eyes and a pure, bright, and cheerful smile to Xu Qingya.
"Senior brother, you're back! I've been waiting for you here for so long! I came to the capital to find someone, but I accidentally ran out of money and had no choice but to rely on you!"
"Um... young lady, we don't seem to have met before. Are you sure you haven't mistaken me for someone else?"
Xu Qingya narrowed his eyes, sensing the aura released by the girl's every move. This aura was strange, and could probably be described in two words—sweet and ethereal!
The girl's skin was delicate and dewy, like a lotus-picking girl who grew up in the water towns of Jiangnan and sailed on West Lake. Yet, within this watery charm lay an indescribable sharpness, as if it possessed the power of thunder and lightning!
Water has no fixed shape!
A babbling brook is water, a rushing waterfall is water, a mountain spring is water, and a vast ocean is also water.
Water is the source of life, but also a devastating disaster. It can also transform into clouds, fog, snow, and ice. If it only possesses gentle, vibrant, and "elegant" qualities, it loses its spirit and appears dry and lifeless.
Only the ever-changing nature of water possesses an innate spiritual charm, and thus can be called "water spirit."
The girl wasn't shy at all, and confidently took Xu Qingya's arm: "Senior brother, you may not have seen me before, but I have seen you many times!"
"When did you see him?"
Xu Qingya patted Doubao'er's head. Xu Qingya might have missed something, but Doubao'er would never forget the scent he had smelled. Doubao'er had been with Xu Qingya for three years. If he didn't recognize him, it meant it was three years ago.
The girl giggled, "I've seen you in my dreams!"
"what?"
"Senior brother, you look so funny! I'm not teasing you anymore! My name is Beitang Xin'er, and my martial aunt is Ximen Ruoshui. When I was training outside, the great hero Ximen taught me a few moves of kung fu, so she's like a half-master to me!"
"North Hall...Four-Sided Gate?"
The Four Directions Sect uses "direction" as its surname and has four lineages. Each lineage has a unique skill comprehended from the elements of nature, collectively known as the "Four Directions Mysterious Skill"!
The Four Directions Sect was led by the Eastern family, with the Western family as its strategist, the Northern family as its steward, and the Southern family as its protectors. More than twenty years ago, the Four Directions Sect moved to the Western Regions, where a devastating internal strife ensued.
Ximen Ruoshui disappeared, Nangong Lie went into hiding, and Dongfang Qingmu was captured by the God of Arrest and imprisoned. The once majestic Sifangmen fell apart overnight, and only Beitang Mo remained of the four elders, barely managing to hold the Sifangmen together.
In Xu Qingya's memory, all the members of the Four Directions Sect were mentally ill. Ximen Ruoshui, the most idiotic of all, was actually the most intelligent among them, a true strategist in the literal sense, standing out from the idiots.
A bunch of brainless brutes were able to create a sect like the Four Directions Sect. Clearly, the unique skills passed down in the four directions are all top-tier martial arts techniques.
The Eastern lineage belongs to the wind element. The Eastern Wind Mystic Art combines the vitality of wood with the speed of wind, making its martial arts style exceptionally elegant and unrestrained.
The Ximen lineage belongs to the Thunder element. The Xilei Xuan Gong (Western Thunder Profound Skill) is a mental technique similar to the "Xiao Wuxiang Gong" (Lesser Formless Skill). It can imitate all kinds of martial arts in the world and has thunderous destructive power.
The Nangong lineage belongs to the fire element. The Nanhuo Xuan Gong (Southern Fire Profound Art) is a mental cultivation method that contains the divine power of heavenly thunder and earthly fire. It is the only one of the four profound arts that is equipped with a weapon and is skilled in using a knife.
The Beitang lineage belongs to the category of electricity. The Beidian Xuan Gong (Northern Electricity Mysterious Skill) is a mental technique that combines the unpredictable changes of lightning with the powerful attacks of thunder. Its moves are extremely unpredictable and varied.
Xu Qingya was quite interested in the Four Directions Mystic Arts, especially the East Wind Mystic Arts, which was very compatible with the Spring and Autumn Saber Technique.
Guan Yu's most obvious symbol is loyalty and righteousness. The organs corresponding to loyalty and righteousness are the liver and gallbladder. Loyalty and righteousness are like the liver and gallbladder reflecting each other. According to the Five Elements theory, the liver and gallbladder correspond to the wood element. The liver is Yi wood and the gallbladder is Jia wood.
The mental cultivation method passed down by Lord Guan, which is also the main mental cultivation method practiced by Xu Qingya, is the "Yi Wood Divine Skill". Xu Qingya practiced the mental cultivation method to its peak half a year ago, and broke through the limit of the mental cultivation method three months ago, entering a new realm.
To create your own unique mental cultivation method, you need to refer to other mental cultivation methods, learn from their strengths, and fuse them into one. The Four Directions Mysterious Skill of the Four Directions Sect is a very valuable reference.
Xu Qingya had planned this long ago.
Taking advantage of this great achievement in excavating the Liancheng treasure, I can go to the Heavenly Prison to visit Dongfang Qingmu.
Xu Qingya never expected that Beitang Xin'er would come to the capital to save someone. What was even stranger was that Beitang Xin'er was living alone. Could it be that her master's deceitful nature had kicked in and tricked Beitang Xin'er?
"Junior sister, what happened to you...?"
"Of course, it was Master Ximen who told me! He said you have quite a bit of wealth, and if you encounter any difficulties, you can ask your senior brother for help. Your senior brother won't kick me out, will he? I'm very obedient, I can help you sweep the floor and cook."
Beitang Xin'er clung to Xu Qingya's arm, shaking it like a child. Just as Xu Qingya was about to say something, he suddenly thought of an extremely clichéd plot.
Xu Qingya silently counted: "One, two..."
Before the number "three" could be counted, a group of beautiful women walked in through the gate: the gentle and mature Yang Yan, the domineering rich woman Yin Susu, and the tyrannical Liu Qingci. They all appeared at Xu Qingya's door to admire the "golden house hidden away."
Xu Qingya felt an urge to disappear into the ground.
Even if Duan Zhengchun or Wen Liangong possessed the spirit of this person, they wouldn't know how to resolve this situation.
Yang Yan sighed softly, "Qingya, it seems I've come at an inopportune time, interrupting your good time!"
He spoke gently, but in his heart he cursed the Linglong Pavilion's spies a thousand and eight hundred times. Damn it, their escape route was blown to smithereens, and they didn't even know?
Yin Susu's brows furrowed sharply: "This young lady looks quite unfamiliar. May I ask where she comes from?"
As a witch whose ancestors for eight generations were all demons, Yin Susu sensed a kindred spirit in this delicate, gentle, mischievous, and adorable junior sister.
Liu Qingci moved a long bench over, placed Doubao on his lap with one hand, petted the dog with a brush, and held a bag of candied fruit in the other hand, eating candy while watching the play.
The story of "keeping a beauty in a golden house" is exactly the work of the Liu family. Xu Qingya did not have a "golden house", but with his good looks, even broken bricks and tiles could be made to look like golden pillars and silver platforms, like a fairy palace on the clouds.
The air became completely still.
Occasionally, the sound of Liu Qingci chewing sesame candy could be heard, along with Doubao'er's sobbing.
Some say that in this situation, a man's intelligence rivals that of Einstein. Xu Qingya instantly realized—what do I have to be guilty of? This is my master's fault! I don't know anything!
Xu Qingya, with his head held high and chest out, confidently and righteously pulled Beitang Xin'er over and introduced her: "This is my junior sister, Beitang Xin'er. She came to the capital to look for someone, but accidentally spent money on CDs, so she's staying with me for a few days."
"Junior Sister?"
Yang Yan looked puzzled.
She had already thoroughly investigated the Magpie Blade Sect. Besides Xu Qingya, Ximen Changhai had four nominal disciples and an only beloved daughter.
The eldest brother, Hao Meng, is skilled in Iron Head Kung Fu. He has a shiny bald head and used to do odd jobs. He is good at mourning and his business covers an area of eighty miles.
The second senior brother, Zhao Dezhu, was a pirate with excellent knife skills. He had a slight stutter, sweaty feet, and tasted like a salted duck egg pickled with stinky tofu for ten years.
Third Senior Sister Ye Si Niang comes from a family of doctors and is highly skilled in both medicine and toxicology. She is well acquainted with Medicine King Valley and is Hao Meng's wife. Recently, she has been busy exercising and preparing for pregnancy.
The fourth junior brother, Jiang Yulang, is a descendant of loyal and virtuous people. His parents were framed by villains and his whole family was killed. He was rescued by Ximen Changhai, who happened to be passing by. He is handsome, sincere, generous and magnanimous, and has a great talent in martial arts.
Junior Sister Ximen Rou, Ximen Changhai's daughter, is the family's source of joy. She likes Jiang Yulang, enjoys visiting the Liaodong morning market, and has never left Liaodong.
Where did Beitang Xin'er come from?
wrong!
Her surname is Beitang, could she be a disciple of the Sifang Sect?
Yang Yan quickly realized that while other people's senior brothers and sisters "shared a master," Xu Qingya and Beitang Xin'er, this pair of senior brothers and sisters, "shared a aunt."
Yang Yan had dealt with the Sifang Sect before and had a very bad impression of Beitang Mo, the only remaining elder of the sect.
Beitang Mo is a cunning and treacherous villain who doesn't know how to "seize profits".
The vast majority of people do bad things for personal gain, whether it's material benefits like official positions, money, or women, or psychological benefits like a sense of accomplishment or revenge. They must gain something, rather than harming others without benefiting themselves.
Beitang Mo means "harming others without benefiting oneself".
However, it wasn't that Beitang Mo didn't want to benefit himself, but rather that he didn't know how. He did a lot of bad things, even scheming over a cup of tea, but he didn't know how to use these schemes to gain benefits, resulting in him getting nothing in return.
"Beitang" is not a common surname. Beitang Xin'er is most likely Beitang Mo's daughter. Yang Yan rubbed her chin. "A bad bamboo can produce a good shoot. What virtue or ability does that old bastard Beitang Mo have to have such a daughter? Did he pick her up?"
Most likely not their biological child!
