Longevity starts with strengthening the internal organs

Jade Dragon City, in an inn.

Liu Bolong sat slumped on the chair, the sadness on his face almost overflowing.

The guard leader Chen An sat opposite him, his expression not much better.

The atmosphere in the room was dull and depressing.

After a long time, I heard Chen An sigh and say: "Master, why don't we just forget about it and just pretend that the goods were robbed on the road. At least we will be fine."

"Old Chen, you don't understand the importance of this batch of goods to me. For this business trip, I emptied my fortune and took huge risks to cross the no man's land and come to this foreign land, just to make money. "

"Now that both property and goods have been lost, my Liu family is finished. How can I survive this?" Liu Bolong said with a face full of grief and anger.

Chen An stopped talking after hearing this.

Because he knew that what Liu Bolong said was true.

It wasn't until a moment later that he said sadly: "It's all my fault for being incompetent and failing to protect the caravan."

Liu Bolong shook his head, "I can't blame you. If I am to blame, I have to blame me for being so obsessed that I listened to these people's lies and ended up like this."

"The only thing that puzzles me is that there is such a group of arrogant and domineering people in the city. Does Jade Dragon City just ignore it?"

"Maybe they are a group." Chen An whispered.

Liu Bolong's expression froze.

This is also what worries him the most.

Because that means that he will never have a chance to turn around.

"Damn it, eating people without spitting out bones is even worse than the Black Wind Village in No Man's Land." Liu Bolong could only curse in a low voice with a look of despair on his face, but other than that, he didn't know what to do.

As he said, he staked all his fortune on this business trip.

Unexpectedly, he came through the extremely dangerous no-man's land without any danger, but he stumbled in the Jade Dragon City in this alien land.

At that time, Liu Bolong escorted the goods and trekked all the way, and finally came to this poor land.

Although Yulong City has a great reputation and is close to the famous mountain Yulong Mountain, it even successfully held the founding ceremony of the Thirteen Huawai Sects this time.

But in fact, it has been developing very mediocrely.

Many commercial banks will avoid this place intentionally or unintentionally, which has also led to the very underdeveloped trade here.

Because of this, the prices of goods here are much higher than elsewhere.

This is what attracted Liu Bolong to travel thousands of miles to do business here.

He thought about making a lot of money this time, then he would wash his hands and become a happy and carefree rich man.

Unexpectedly, not long after he arrived in Jade Dragon City, all the goods he escorted were "eaten" by a trading firm in the city, and the price given was not much different from the market price.

Liu Bolong was a little happy at first, thinking that doing so would save trouble and worry.

He no longer has to worry about selling goods. He only needs to pay the money to the merchant house and then he can leave.

Unexpectedly, we have to wait for several months, from the cold winter months to the spring flowers.

During this period, Liu Bolong went to this business bank countless times to ask for money, but all failed.

At first, this firm would use various excuses to deal with it, but later it simply stopped pretending. After going there, it was just two words: no money.

Liu Bolong knew that he had encountered a liar.

At the beginning, Liu Bolong was not particularly panicked, because he was not a fool. The reason why he had reached a trade with this firm in the first place was because several large shops in the city provided guarantees and signed an agreement.

It's written in black and white, with fingerprints on it, so there's no way to deny it.

Therefore, when he found out that this firm was going to default on its debt, Liu Bolong first went to find the person who had provided guarantee.

As a result, several shops that had sworn and patted their chests to ensure that there would be no mistakes now all refused to admit it.

When the shopkeepers of the following shops heard that it was Liu Bolong, they simply stopped showing their faces.

In desperation, Liu Bolong had no choice but to pin his hopes on the officials of Yulong City, hoping that the city lord's palace of Yulong City would come forward to make the decision for him.

At that time, Liu Bolong thought very simply. The city lord's palace in Jade Dragon City could not allow such a group of liars to exist under his rule.

Otherwise, wouldn't this be a big blow to one's own reputation?

But after several contacts, Liu Bolong's heart gradually sank.

It's not because of the bad attitude of the City Lord's Mansion.

On the contrary, every time I went there, there was a dedicated person to receive Liu Bolong, serve tea and water, and the reception was very attentive.

And no matter how Liu Bolong recounted the matter with tears in his eyes, there were always people who listened with sympathy, and after listening, they would express with indignation that they would report the matter to the Lord of the City, and then thoroughly investigate the whole matter.

But after Liu Bolong returned full of hope, there was nothing more to say.

After a few times, even Liu Bolong, no matter how stupid he was, could see that the leader of the City Lord's Mansion had a sincere attitude but did nothing.

This is obviously monkey-playing, even worse than monkey-playing.

Because he will give you hope again and again, and then make you despair again and again.

Liu Bolong finally understood why those caravans deliberately avoided Jade Dragon City.

This is obviously a fucking scam.

You are coveting his little profit, but he is thinking about your principal.

But it was too late to regret it now. During the waiting period, many people in the caravan left.

First, because everyone can see that waiting like this will not accomplish anything except wasting time.

Secondly, because of such a long wait, Liu Bolong was already short of money and could no longer afford the daily expenses of so many people.

Just walking around like this, in the end only Chen An was left alone with Liu Bolong.

The two were silent in the room for a long time.

By this time the sun had risen.

The sound of the waiter sweeping the floor came from outside the door.

Liu Bolong and Chen An didn't sleep all night again, but they didn't feel sleepy, just tired.

"Master, let me go buy some steamed buns on the street. If you don't eat all the time, your body will collapse." Chen An said.

Liu Bolong waved his hands weakly, then leaned on the chair and fell asleep.

Chen An didn't dare to disturb him, got up and walked out of the inn.

By this time, the street had become lively. Chen An came to a bun shop and bought two drawers of buns.

One drawer with mutton and one with plain stuffing.

The vegetarian stuffing is eaten by oneself, while the meat stuffing is given to the host to replenish the body.

After buying the buns, Chen An was about to turn around and leave when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure appearing in front of a breakfast stall in the distance.

Chen An was stunned for a moment, then rubbed his eyes, thinking he was dazzled.

But when he took a closer look, he saw the man sitting next to the stall eating tofu with a bowl. Isn't that the young master he met in no man's land?

Chen An didn't know Zhao Ya's name, but through that brief contact, Chen An knew that Zhao Ya was extremely powerful.

At that time, Chen An thought that they would never see each other again after this farewell, but he did not expect that they would meet again in Jade Dragon City.

Chen Anxin jumped suddenly and thought of a possibility.

If... the boss can ask this expert to help with this matter, will there be a turn for the better?

Although I don’t know if it will succeed, I don’t even know if this mysterious young master will help.

But now, it can only be treated as a living horse.

Thinking of this, Chen An took a deep breath and walked towards the breakfast stall where Zhao Ya was.

At the same time, Zhao Ya was drinking hot and spicy tofu noodle while chatting with Shen Yunshen beside him.

"Elder, how can we find the stronghold of Farewell Building when Jade Dragon City is so big and there is no specific location or clues?"

Shen Yunshen didn't respond. He first took a bite of the pickles provided for free by the tofu stall, and then happily took out the flask and took a sip of wine.

After the drink was down, he said, "What do you think?"

Zhao Ya pondered for a moment, and then said: "I think it is better to start with the City Lord's Mansion in Jade Dragon City. After all, the City Lord's Mansion should know best about the people under his control."

"Haha, it's the same as what I thought, but before going to the City Lord's Mansion, it's best to do some research first, so that you won't get blinded and be deceived by people from the City Lord's Mansion again, what do you think?"

Zhao Ya nodded.

In fact, he had a rough idea of ​​Shen Yunshen's thoughts from the fact that Shen Yunshen led his people into the city quietly instead of going in with great fanfare like in White Tiger City.

But how should I proceed when inquiring about information later?

Zhao Ya was thinking about it when he suddenly felt something. He turned his head and looked behind him, and then recognized Chen An in the crowd at a glance.

Hey, isn't this the guard leader of the caravan he met in no man's land?

Why is he here?

Seeing him walking straight towards him, Zhao Ya knew that he must have recognized him, so he said to Shen Yunshen.

"Elder Shen, I met an acquaintance. I went over to have a look."

"Okay." Shen Yunshen had no objection.

Zhao Ya stood up. At this time, Chen An had already arrived in front of the tofu stall. When he saw Zhao Ya, he quickly bowed and saluted.

"Young hero, I haven't seen you for a few months, do you still remember me?"

Zhao Ya smiled and said, "There is no distinction between them. It has indeed been a while, but I wonder why you are here in Jade Dragon City?"

Hearing what Zhao Ya said, Chen An felt relieved.

No matter what, he remembered himself, which was a good start.

Then Chen An said with excitement: "To be honest, my boss and I escorted the goods and traveled all the way to Jade Dragon City. I wanted to make a lot of money, but unexpectedly we encountered endless troubles."

"Oh? What happened?" Zhao Ya's heart moved and he suddenly had some ideas.

Chen An looked around with some embarrassment, feeling that this was not the right place to talk about this.

Zhao Ya saw Chen An's thoughts and couldn't help but smile.

"Where do you live? How about I come over to find you after breakfast?"

Chen An was overjoyed when he heard this, but was afraid that if Zhao Ya left again, he would lose even his last glimmer of hope.

So he said: "We will stay in an inn not far away. You eat slowly and I will wait for you. After eating, I will take you over and let the host tell you what is going on. What do you think?" "
