Immortality: Raise an ant queen and add some immortality

It's a pity that I was short of time and couldn't visit Shennong City this time.

Although Qin Niu made his fortune by raising termites, his most powerful skill is planting.

With Changchun Gong and Medicine King Sutra, it becomes even more powerful.

It was only because he was still in the early stages of accumulating raw power and had ancient banyan trees that he did not spend a lot of energy and time on planting them.

Trying to survive first and then develop is his general policy in the early development stage.

Shennong City has been established for more than a thousand years and is a very ancient city. When the Shennong sect was at its most powerful, Bailian Xianzun even went to Shennong City in person to seek medicine.

Some people also say that Bailian Xianzun did not ask for medicine that time, but that there was a problem with an important herb he planted, and he asked the planting experts sent by Shennong to come and treat it.

No matter what the situation is, to be able to bring the Hundred Refiners Immortal Lord in person, he must have extraordinary abilities.

Qin Niu will one day go to Shennong City to broaden his horizons.

While chatting with the uncle along the way, Qin Niu was basically listening.

The roast chicken and braised beef given to the uncle played a very good bribery effect. The uncle's wariness towards him has dropped to a low point, and anyone who knows anything will talk about it freely.

An hour and a half later, the carriage finally arrived at Tianshui Town smoothly.

This is a trading town built along the water.

Before the war with the Black Tiger Gang, a large amount of goods were handled here every day.

At this moment, all we can see is that the docks along the river are full of ships of all sizes. Some workers or ship owners are sitting on the docks and worrying.

Small groups of people discussed how long it would take for the war to end.

Uncle He, thank you for sending me all the way here. Goodbye!

Qin Niu jumped out of the carriage and waved goodbye to his uncle.

Be careful on the road. It's a chaotic situation. If you can't cross the river, you can come back to me. I will find my sister later, and you can also ask an acquaintance to help you ask.

He Zhizhou actually knew that Qin Niu was going to cross the river to the Black Tiger Gang's territory.

Well, thank you Uncle He! It would be great if there was no war. I could invite you to my home.

Seeing that his identity was revealed by his uncle, Qin Niu didn't give any more explanations or excuses.

Uncle He was kind-hearted and honest. Knowing that he was a member of the Black Tiger Gang, he would not even think of reporting him. But I hope Qin Niu can cross Tianshui safely and return to the Black Tiger Gang.

Arriving at the pier, Qin Niu went straight to a boatman with a less cunning look.

Uncle, can you take me to the other side of Tianshui River?

Qin Niu asked directly.

We can't go. There is a war between the two sides now, and all our ships have been stopped. As long as we go there, we may not be able to come back.

The boatman shook his head repeatedly.

I can pay more for the boat, which just takes me to the other side.

Qin Niu took out a tael of silver.

The boatman was an honest man. Although he was greedy for the money, he still shook his head and refused.

One tael of silver for the ship?

A strong man with triangular eyes and muscles all over his body raised his head and asked Qin Niu. This person was originally sitting not far away chatting with several people.

Qin Niu's inquiry about crossing the river has attracted the attention of many people.

Most people just pay attention secretly.

Yes, as long as you send me across the river, I will give you a tael of silver! Qin Niu nodded and confirmed.

If it gets later, come here and find me.

good!

Qin Niu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw someone taking the job.

As long as you pass Tianshui, you will enter the territory of the Black Tiger Gang. As a bug master, he could at least enjoy a lot of preferential treatment, not to mention walking sideways on the Blackwater Gang's territory.

It will be safe once you cross the river.

Qin Niu decided to stroll around the town first, it was always a good idea to familiarize himself with the terrain.

Uncle He has disappeared and must have gone to find his sister.

There are not many shops in the town, but there are many warehouses.

Various granaries can be found everywhere.

Today, the doors of these granaries are locked, and most of the residents in the town have sad faces.

Qin Niu went directly into a tavern.

There are quite a few people drinking inside.

Many of them are tall and strong men. Now that the dock is closed, they have nothing to do, so they gather here to drink and relieve their boredom.

You've been doing well, but suddenly they declared war on the Black Tiger Gang. I don't know what the higher-ups are thinking?

Didn't you tell me? If we take down the Black Tiger Gang, the vast fertile land and the beauties from the Black Tiger Gang will all belong to us. By then, everyone will have the opportunity to become a landlord.

You are the only one who believes this! Such good things are really divided up by the rich and powerful, and it is the turn of ordinary people like us?

The beauty of the Black Tiger Gang will get you, right? I heard that after the Nine Insects Gang annexed the Seven Star Gate, they directly divided people into three, six or nine grades. Those high-class people live a more comfortable life than the emperor.

To say that the population of the Black Tiger Gang is really large, the beauties are all very eye-catching. Their skin is so tender that you can pinch water, and their figures are charming. The key is that their temperament is particularly great. Our Shennong sect women, that is, Only girls from wealthy families have good temperament, but the women from the Black Tiger Gang are all good.

seriously?

Of course it's true. I went there and saw it with my own eyes. When dancing, her body is as soft as if she has no bones, and her singing voice is so intoxicating!

…

A group of drunk men chatted about topics of interest to men.

The things that attract men's interest are nothing more than money, power, and beautiful women.

Qin Niu ate and drank in the tavern, watched the sky getting dark outside, and left the tavern.

After staying there for nearly two hours, I heard something useful.

The Shennong faction dared to use troops against the Black Tiger Gang because the senior officials believed they would win.

It's possible that the Nine Insects Gang gave some promises.

Qin Niu's overall feeling is that the Shennong faction, from high-level officials to civilians, are generally very optimistic about this war.

And he thought that the war could be ended in a very short time.

Just two words, confidence.

After leaving the tavern, he walked straight towards the pier not far away.

Before he reached the pier, a figure flashed out of the darkness and reached out to catch him.

Qin Niu had an innate realm of cultivation. When the person opposite suddenly attacked him, his eyes were slightly cold, and he wanted to teach him a lesson.

Brother Qin, come with me quickly!

It was He Zhizhou's voice.

He lowered his voice, grabbed Qin Niu and left.

Uncle He, what happened?

Qin Niu was full of suspicion.

The first reaction was that something happened to He Zhizhou's sister, and He Zhizhou asked him for help.

But he quickly denied it.

If you find someone to take you across the river, that person has already reported to the police quietly. There are officers and soldiers squatting inside the boat, waiting for you to get on the boat.

This is too abominable!

Qin Niu didn't expect the boatman to be so vicious.

We have clearly agreed on one tael of silver for the shipping fee. If you think the money is too little, you can add more.

You still have to be more careful when walking outside! My brother-in-law happened to hear about this from a friend and told him when he went home for dinner. I guessed that they were probably trying to catch you. So I hurried to the only way to the pier. Just wait and see, I’ve been waiting for you as expected.”

He Zhizhou led him forward quickly while explaining in a low voice.

Uncle knows that I might be from the Black Tiger Gang, why do you still want to help me?

Qin Niu was quite moved.

Although the ambush of those officers and soldiers may not necessarily threaten his safety, it is best to avoid fighting.

I'm just an ordinary citizen, and I can't care about the major affairs of those sects. I only know that you are a kind and friendly young man. No matter which sect you are from, you are an ordinary citizen like me.

After He Zhizhou took Qin Niu out of the town, he turned back to check that no one was following him, and took Qin Niu into a house.

The low house is comparable to Qin Niu's old house.

Tattered.

A young woman was holding a one-year-old baby, and there was a thin young man.

This man wore his clothes on one side and his hat on the other side, with his chest exposed and his belly exposed. He looked like a gangster.

The young woman was not pretty, with average appearance, and her eyes were full of spirituality and perseverance. At first glance, she looked like a woman who had been trained in society.

I really don’t know how I fell in love with such a second-rate guy.

Little sister, brother-in-law, this is brother Qin Niu that I met on the road. Everyone encounters difficulties when they are away from home. If we can help him, we will try our best to help him.

He Zhizhou closed the door and introduced Qin Niu's identity to the two of them.

I'm causing trouble for you!

Qin Niu saluted the two of them.

Minmin's eldest brother has already spoken, so don't talk about trouble or not. Although I, Lu Zhong, am not doing my job properly and have not done anything famous, I have always been loyal to my friends. I haven't eaten yet. Let's eat first and wait. Later, I will take you across the river by boat.

People cannot be judged by their appearance.

He Zhizhou's brother-in-law looked like a second-rate man, but unexpectedly he was quite loyal.

I've already eaten at the tavern, thank you Brother Lu for your kindness.

Qin Niu glanced at the food on the table.

Two plates of leftover vegetables, a salted fish, and a few big steamed buns.

This family is really poor.

It was probably because my brother-in-law was here that he prepared a salted fish for cooking. He probably only eats vegetables.

No wonder the couple are both thin.

Madam, we still have eggs at home. Let's boil two eggs to entertain Brother Qin Niu. I'll get the boat and call Brother Qin Niu later when it's ready.

Lu Zhong said to his wife.

He is fooling around outside, and his ability to observe people's emotions should be pretty good.

It seemed that Qin Niu might not want to eat at his house because he thought the food at his house was not good.

Sister-in-law, no, no, I've really eaten and I'm full. It's not easy for you to take care of your child. Sit down and rest.

Qin Niu quickly stopped him.

But they didn't listen to him at all and went in to cook eggs.

For this poor family, boiling two eggs would have been considered a high-end treat.

A woman insisted on going to the kitchen, but he couldn't hold her back.

Lu Zhong opened the door and went out.

Qin Niu was still wary of this second-rate guy. After all, he had just been tricked and almost fell into trouble.

Brother Qin, sit down and rest for a while. I'll go take a look with my brother-in-law.

He Zhizhou saw Qin Niu's worry.

I don't have much contact with my brother-in-law, and I am also worried that my brother-in-law will secretly sue the government. That would harm Qin Niu.

He also went out and accompanied his brother-in-law to prepare the boat.

The two of them felt relieved about Qin Niu and left him at home with their mistress and children. (End of chapter)
