A few days later.
Tang Xiu returned to Jingmen Island, and after leaving the ghost at Baiyan Restaurant, he accompanied Gu Yaner for a few days, and then hurried to Qingcheng Mountain with Moawu and others. Before leaving, he contacted Long Zhenglin, but the result was disappointing. After Long Zhenglin arrived at Qingcheng Mountain, although he already knew Wang Tao's whereabouts, the other party always avoided him.
Bonus!
One of the best main materials for refining body-tempering elixirs and blood-stealing elixirs, it has extremely strong compatibility, and also has extremely terrifying divisiveness. These two effects play an excellent role in improving the physical strength of immortal cultivators.
Tang Xiu desperately wanted to break through to the realm of "carrying qi and blood" in the Star Overlord Body, because he knew very well that once he broke through to the realm of carrying qi and blood, he would be comparable to the masters of the Nascent Soul stage among ordinary monks.
Running all the way.
Tang Xiu and Mo Awu finally arrived in the Qingcheng Mountain area and came to a small town full of classical style.
Qinglin County.
The Bashu region is a very remote place, but its prosperity is comparable to some economically prosperous small counties in the south. There is not a large permanent population here, but as it is a famous tourist attraction in China, it will welcome a large number of tourists from all over the world at home and abroad every season.
On the broad road, two taxis drove into Qinglin County. Tang Xiu, who was sitting in the second taxi, looked at the scene outside, especially the looming outline of the mountains in the distance, which he fell in love with when he first arrived. Got this place.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Tang Xiu was surprised to find something, that is, there were posters of a star hanging on the surrounding billboards, buses, and even high-rise buildings.
"Master, is Zhang Xinya very popular in your county?"
The taxi driver was not a good talker, but when he heard Tang Xiu's inquiry, he became somewhat interested. A smile appeared on his dark face and he said, "More than half a month ago, people here could only watch on TV. You can only see reports about the big star Zhang Xinya on your mobile phone and computer. However, in the past half month since Jinzun Diluo Villa District was ready to open for sale, the news about Zhang Xinya’s coming to us has been widely reported by the media, and even Jinzun The big boss of Zun Diluo Villa District even spent a lot of money on publicity."
Tang Xiu said in surprise: "It's just a villa area property opening. There's no need to invite big stars, right? There's no need for such vigorous publicity, right? After all, you're a small county..."
The taxi driver laughed and said, "Brother, do you think our small county is not worthy of inviting big stars to support us?"
Tang Xiu shook his head and said, "I just think it's a bit too exaggerated."
The taxi driver said: "To be honest, it's not an exaggeration at all. Jinzun Diluo Villa Area is the most high-end villa area in our Qinglin County. There are many wealthy foreigners who come to us to buy villas. Don't you know that Jinzun Emperor The location of Luo Villa District, otherwise if you have money, I am afraid you will also be interested."
Tang Xiu asked: "Tell me about it."
The taxi driver smiled and said: "The Jinzun Diluo Villa area is built halfway up the highest peak on the outermost edge of Qingcheng Mountain. It is not in our Qinglin County. Walking five or six kilometers north from our place is the highest peak of the mountain. At your feet. Now the highest peak has been built into a high-end community integrating dining, entertainment, culture and other elements. Anyone who can live there will have a status symbol. Of course, the most important thing is that Jinzun The Di Luo Villa area is still within the tourist attractions of Qingcheng Mountain, but ordinary tourists do not have the right to enter the villa area."
Tang Xiu suddenly realized and said with a smile: "It seems that the big boss who established the Jinzun Diluo Villa is a great person."
The taxi driver smiled and said: "That's natural. The richest man in our Qinglin County and the younger brother of the deputy director of the Qingcheng Taoist Temple in Qingcheng Mountain, Wang Xuegang."
Qingcheng Taoist Temple
Tang Xiu's expression changed and he asked, "Where is this Qingcheng Taoist Temple? Is it also a tourist attraction?"
The taxi driver shook his head and said: "That's far away. It's in the mountains of Qingcheng Mountain! Most tourists won't go there. Only a few tourists with high faith will take the trouble to go there to offer incense."
Tang Xiu nodded and did not ask any more questions about Qingcheng Taoist Temple. He returned the topic to the previous topic and asked: "Is this Xinya really coming to your Qinglin County?"
The taxi driver said: "Not yet! The opening date of Jinzun Diluo Villa is June 28th, the day after tomorrow, so we don't know whether Zhang Xinya is here or not."
Tang Xiu nodded and turned his gaze to the window. He never thought that one day he and Zhang Xinya would be able to come to this small town at the same time. However, he was not planning to meet Zhang Xinya, and he had no interest in the Jinzun Diluo villa area. If possible, it would be best to avoid Zhang Xinya.
He was afraid of emotional debt. Zhang Xinya was obviously interested in him. Even in the past few months, he had received more than a dozen calls from Zhang Xinya, but every time he said something perfunctory.
Qinglin County, Red Hat Auto Trade City.
After getting off the taxi, Tang Xiu found a teahouse near the gate of Auto Trade City, while Mo Awu and Jin Shi entered the Auto Trade City. If they want to walk here, vehicles are still necessary. To save trouble, Tang Xiu decided to buy two cars directly.
Half an hour later.
Long Zhenglin ran in from the teahouse door out of breath. When he saw Tang Xiu sitting by the window, he ran over and sat down opposite Tang Xiu. Then he picked up the tea that Tang Xiu had poured in advance and drank it all with one tilt of his neck. In his stomach, he said happily: "Boss, you are finally here. I have been staying in this useless place for more than a month. I have tried various methods, but I just can't see that bastard Wang Tao."
Tang Xiu smiled and said, "Tell me, where is Wang Tao now?"
Long Zhenglin said: "I heard that after the boy came back from other places, he locked himself up in his home in Qinglin County for a month or two. He behaved like a lady in ancient times, and the door was closed. If you don't step out of the door, you won't see him at all. I went to look for him more than ten times, but he was kicked out by his bodyguards every time."
Tang Xiu asked: "Are you sure he is at home?"
Long Zhenglin looked around and found that no one was paying attention to them, so he lowered his voice and said: "Although I am not 100% sure, the news about him at home is very close. These days, I hide almost every day Observing near his house, I found that two doctors from Qinglin County Hospital came in and out seven or eight times. I wanted to bribe those two doctors, but they were stunned and refused to tell them what they were doing at Wang Tao's house. "
Tang Xiu asked in surprise: "Wang Tao is very powerful in Qinglin County?"
Long Zhenglin said: "Not only is he powerful, he is simply a prince. His father Wang Xuegang is the richest man in Qinglin County. He wants money and connections. He is called the local emperor of Qinglin County by the local people."
Wang Xuegang
A look of surprise flashed in Tang Xiu's eyes. When he came to Qinglin County this time, he originally wanted to buy the bonus from Wang Tao with a lot of money. Wang Tao originally spent 12 million to buy the bonus, and he was willing to pay ten times a hundred times. purchase price. But if Wang Tao is the son of Qinglin County's downpayer, he is probably an owner who is not short of money. If he only uses money to buy, it may be difficult to get what he wants.
"Does this Wang Tao have any special hobbies?"
Long Zhenglin smiled strangely and said, "Yes, he likes women."
woman
Tang Xiu was stunned for a moment, and finally shook his head with a headache. If he were in the fairy world, there would be many women he could take advantage of, because in the fairy world, brothels are everywhere, and there are countless women who come out. But this is the earth. Although there are good-looking women who are young ladies, it may be difficult to find them in this small county. The most important thing is that with Wang Tao's wealth, ordinary women may not look down on her.
"Does he have no other hobbies besides women?"
Long Zhenglin shook his head and said, "I don't know about that."
Tang Xiu took a deep breath and said slowly: "Let's take a break today and understand the situation here. I will go to Wang Tao's house in person tomorrow morning, hoping to buy back the bonus."
Long Zhenglin said: "Boss, if you are too soft, let's be tough. Although Wang Tao is also a practitioner and has many bodyguards, I believe he is far behind compared to you."
Tang Xiu shook his head and said: "We are not bandits, and we cannot rob houses. Unless Wang Tao is not a kind person, we can only find a way to trade with him. If he really bites him to death and refuses to sell, no matter what method we use, he will be killed." If we are unwilling to compromise, I’m afraid we can only leave disappointed.”
Half a day later.
Tang Xiu and Long Zhenglin left together and lived in the Senbao five-star hotel, the highest-end hotel in Qinglin County. Since it is not the peak tourist season, the rooms Long Zhenglin reserved in advance are presidential suites.
Twelfth floor.
In the corridor paved with beige carpets, Zhang Xiaoyu was carrying some shopping bags, with a somewhat sad look on her delicate face. When she was about to reach the elevator, the elevator door suddenly opened.
"Um?"
Zhang Xiaoyu clearly saw the group of men coming out, especially the young man at the front, and felt vaguely familiar. However, in this unfamiliar place, she did not want to cause trouble, so she turned around and walked directly in. Inside the stairs.
Half a minute later.
Zhang Xiaoyu quietly poked her head out from the corner of the stairs. Seeing that the group of people had reached the depths of the corridor, she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. However, the confusion on her pretty face not only did not diminish, but became more and more intense. She felt that she should have seen the young man somewhere, but she couldn't remember where.
"Forget it, let's send Xinya's clothes to the dry cleaners first. That aunt is in a bad mood recently. If the clothes are not dry cleaned when she leaves Qinglin County the day after tomorrow, she will nag me again."
Zhang Xiaoyu shook her head, came to the front and rear of the elevator door, opened the elevator door and stood in. When she just pressed the 1st floor button from inside, a light suddenly flashed in her mind.
"I remembered."
