Chapter 908: The Northern Han border, the trouble of recruiting a son-in-law(1/2)



The northeastern part of the Sui and Tang Dynasties was the border of the Northern Han Dynasty.

Different from the chaotic Sui and Tang Dynasties, at this time in the Northern Han Dynasty, the emperor was wise and the country was peaceful and the people were safe. Although there were road tyrants and bandits cutting roads, it was much better than the chaotic times of the Sui and Tang Dynasties when the people were in dire straits.

In addition, the Northern Han Dynasty was different from any other 'Han' dynasty in Xu Junming's memory. There was neither Liu Bang, Han Xin, Liu Xiu, nor Liu Yu.

The founding monarch was a man named Liu Xie. It is said that he was originally from the royal family of the Southern Han Dynasty, but later lived here and made a living by selling cattle and horses.

On a midsummer night, when I was sleeping at night, I received instructions from the gods and learned the art of war, tactics, and methods of governing the people. After the chaos in the previous dynasty, I scattered all my wealth and used cavalry to conquer the world. Later, I established the Northern Han Dynasty, which spanned five trillion miles.

After thousands of years and the hard work of seven emperors, the Northern Han Dynasty has become the top power after the Sui and Wei dynasties.

"Master, look, there is evil spirit here."

Xu Junming looked at the top of the city not far away, shrouded in wisps of light yellow aura, exuding something strange.

"This demonic aura doesn't have much murderous aura. It doesn't look like it's an evil demon."

Sun Shi nodded.

"Then shall we go in?"

"You and I, master and disciple, have not tasted delicious food for a long time. Let's enjoy it in this city today."

"Hey, Master still understands me."

"Haha, you greedy monkey."

The two masters and apprentices quickly arrived outside the city gate.

The city gate is three feet high and five feet wide. There is a huge stone above it with two neat seal characters engraved on it.

Mengchi.

Mengchi is at the county level, which is equivalent to the "mansion" under the governance of Chongshan Academy. It has jurisdiction over an area of ​​50 million miles and a population of 30 billion.

Although it is located in a remote area and is not as good as the large counties in the plains, Mengchi, as a county seat, is also extremely prosperous.

There are tens of millions of people living in this city.

There are rows of rows of combs, and it is very lively.

The two masters and apprentices found the most prosperous restaurant in Mengchi City and had a meal of good wine and meat before preparing to leave.

As soon as I walked to the center of the street, I saw that there were three floors inside and three floors outside, and it was surrounded by wind and rain.

"Master, it's so lively in front, I'll go take a look."

Xu Junming didn't stop him either. Monkeys like fun, it's their nature.

It happened that he was also curious, so he used the invisibility method, took a step, and was in front in an instant.

Surrounded by heavy crowds, there is a high platform in front of you.

A large flag was erected on the high platform with two words written on it.

‘Recruiting a son-in-law’.

'clang….'

There was a sound of a golden gong, and everyone around them focused their attention.

The middle-aged man, wearing a navy blue silk gown and a round hat, with a rich face and piercing eyes, handed the golden gong in his hand to the sturdy servant next to him.

Facing everyone's attention, a smile appeared on his face.

He arched his hands.

"Young and old men from Mengchi, heroes and heroes passing by, today Zhao, on the orders of my young lady, specially set up a stage here to choose a son-in-law for her."

With a flick of his finger, a scroll hanging next to him unfolded instantly.

On a piece of rice paper that is two feet wide and three feet high, there is a drawing of a plump figure, gorgeous appearance, and charming expression, revealing snow-white shoulders, calfs with skin as smooth as gelatin, and slender feet.

Just the portrait exudes a captivating charm.

It caused all the men around him to swallow their saliva and look hungry.

Sure enough, it is true: one can die under the peonies and be a ghost and be romantic.

"This Miss Zhao is really beautiful. If I could sleep with her for one night, I would be willing to die."

"As poor as you are, how can Miss Zhao like you?"

"Wang Mazi, although I am poor, I am much better than an ugly ghost like you."

"Butler, what are the conditions for your young lady to marry a husband?"

"Yes, what are the conditions?"

Everyone started making noises, no one wanted to miss this beauty.

"Everyone, please be patient. If you want to become the son-in-law of my Zhao family, you only need to defeat the guard next to Zhao."

A tall, muscular, shirtless man took two steps forward.

The ferocious eyes and powerful aura can make people immersed in beauty wake up instantly.

This is a warrior with blood refining skills.

In the Earth Immortal World, a world full of spiritual energy, there are many people who have achieved success in martial arts. But most of them stop at the five internal organs realm.

There are very few people who can survive the catastrophe and advance to the realm of 'warrior general'.

There are even fewer people who can advance to the level of martial arts 'general' equivalent to the Taiyi realm.

Xu Junming traveled all the way and saw no more than two martial arts generals.

"I'll fight you."

A big man wearing a ge robe jumped onto the stage.

The two got into a stance and fought with each other for more than a dozen moves. The Zhao family guard punched the big man in Ge Yi and flew away.

The latter vomited blood and fell to the ground seriously injured.

He got up with difficulty, his face was full of shame, and he was ready to turn around and leave.

"The strong man stays."

"I have already lost, are you, the Zhao family, still prepared to humiliate me?"

"No."

After waving, a servant walked up to him holding a tray.

The servant uncovered the red silk on it, and three ingots of silver appeared in front of everyone.

"Although the strong man was defeated and injured, he is still capable. Our Zhao family respects the strong. I would like to ask the strong man to accept these thirty taels of silver so that he can recover from his injuries as soon as possible so that he can find a beautiful woman again."

Hearing this and looking at the silver in front of him, the strong man was suddenly moved and bowed deeply.

"The Zhao family is really kind and righteous. They only hate that I, Li Er, have low abilities and have no chance to be with your Zhao family. But in the future, if the Zhao family is in trouble, I, Li Er, will come when called and I will never refuse."

The middle-aged man named Zhao smiled slightly and bowed.

"Thank you brave man."

After Li Er bowed deeply, he turned around and left with thirty taels of silver.

"Benevolence and righteousness."

"The Zhao family is really kind and righteous. Even if they lose, they will give you money. I have traveled all over the country for more than ten years and never encountered anyone."

"Yes, yes, if it weren't for my poor strength, I would have rushed forward right now."...

Listening to the discussion, the middle-aged man named Zhao had a smile on his face.

Especially after seeing more and more people taking the stage to challenge, the smile on my face became even brighter.

After this episode, more and more people rushed to the ring.

Gradually some people passed the test.

Xu Junming had no intention of participating in any marriage recruitment. After watching the excitement for a while, he was about to leave. Just as he was about to greet Sun Shi, he noticed a sarcastic look with his keen consciousness.

Subconsciously, he turned around and looked, and saw standing near the window of the teahouse not far away, a handsome-looking young man wearing a silver gown and a jade crown.

Xu Junming thought for a while, then transformed into a gray-robed Taoist priest with three long beards on his lower jaw and a Xiaoyao scarf on his head. He opened his right hand and revealed a green bamboo staff.

The next moment, a long flag one foot long on one side and three feet high appeared on the top of the bamboo stick with four characters written on it.

'Cure the sick and save the lives.'

With a quick step, he appeared on the stairs of the tea house. After walking up the stairs, he glanced at where the young master was and walked away.

Hearing the footsteps behind him, the other party turned around.

"Master, please."

After looking him up and down, he cupped his fists and saluted.

"Where did the Taoist priest come from?"
