Chapter 138 Handan City

Hua Kai gave Tang Lei a broadsword that was most suitable for him, but Tang Lei still felt it was too light and uncomfortable, which made him speechless. With Tang Lei's height, weapons could only be specially customized.

Tang Lei asked Hua Kai to help him choose goods. Hua Kai met other villagers in Yingzui Cliff this afternoon. Apart from Tang Lei, there were only 4 Kaiyuan Realm. With this strength, the village had no need for fourth-grade weapons at all. So he still focused on ensuring the livelihood of Yingzui Cliff, leaving them hundreds of cloths of various grades and 10 stones of [Snowflake Salt], which was enough for their village to use for 5 years.

In this way, more than half of the 510 gold was spent. Hua Kai also left them some white sugar, tea, children's food and other things, which were enough for their expenses for a year. After finishing these, Hua Kai and Han Jinsheng went back to the room to rest. Tang Lei took several villagers to store all the things in the cave on the cliff.

At night, Tang Lei tossed and turned in bed. His young wife saw him and gently coaxed the two children. She knew what her husband was thinking, and tears silently flowed from the corners of her eyes.

Tang Lei's mind was filled with Hua Kai's image today. He had lived in the mountains for 24 years. At the age of 18, he was elected as the leader of the village because he killed a wild beast alone. However, as he grew older and stronger, he began to yearn for the world outside the mountains.

Watching the sky slowly brighten outside, Tang Lei was in a very good mood after a sleepless night. He quietly got up, put on his clothes, and left the room.

Hua Kai felt better than ever when he got up in the morning. He felt that the spiritual energy in his body was running faster, and the spiritual energy was flowing through his body and entering his internal organs without any discomfort. He opened the attribute panel and his physique finally reached 30 points. Now if he wanted to, he would start to condense the spiritual energy into true energy, and he would enter the Qidong realm. The true energy could be released and his strength would be greatly improved.

However, Hua Kai felt that even if he did not condense the true energy, his body could still be tempered and strengthened, especially his internal organs. After adapting to the spiritual energy, he began to slowly produce some strange breath. This should be the five elements attribute rule.

The human body is a huge treasure. Only after constant tempering and nourishment can the energy be slowly stimulated. After the three attributes broke through 30 points, Hua Kai felt that he had entered a new realm of cultivation.

After leaving the wooden house and looking at the misty mountains in front of him, the smoke from cooking was floating everywhere on the Eagle Cliff. Hua Kai stood on the edge of the cliff and looked into the distance, and saw a red sun slowly rising from the distant mountain.

Tang Lei's wife prepared breakfast, and the two children were playing with the children in the village outside. Hua Kai felt that Tang Lei's wife seemed to be very depressed today. She ignored him when she saw him today.

After a while, Tang Lei came back from outside. Today he was wearing a leather armor, with two dark arms exposed outside. The leather coat seemed to be made of wild animal skin.

At the dinner table in the morning, Tang Lei was silent. Hua Kai checked his attributes. The loyalty value of the 7th level of Qidong Realm had reached 31 points. He wanted to say something to win him over, but he didn't expect Tang Lei to speak first.

"Sir, to be honest! I had the idea of ​​leaving the village a long time ago, but I didn't take action because of my mother, wife and children. This time, you brought so much food and other things to our village, so I don't have to worry. I want to follow you and leave here. I don't know if you are willing to take me in." Tang Lei said.

"You can practice to the late stage of Qidong Realm by yourself without any mental method and martial arts. It is very rare in the aristocratic families outside the mountains. If you are willing to follow me, I will give you the mental method and martial arts required for practice. You will be able to enter the Qi training realm within a year." Hua Kai returned.

Hearing this, Tang Lei's mother and wife next to him began to cry. Tang Lei stood up from the table, knelt beside his mother and held her hand.

"Mother, Xiaoyan! This time I leave the village, I will definitely go home for at least three years to take you to live in the big city outside the mountain. I have already explained the village affairs! Xiaoyan, you have to take good care of your mother after I leave." Tang Lei knelt in front of his mother and told his wife.

Although Tang Lei's mother had already cried, she still stroked her son's head and said, "Just go with the young master! We will take good care of the children. We are all waiting for you to come back at home."

Hua Kai felt a little uncomfortable after achieving his goal. He left a hundred kilograms of spiritual rice for them to feed the two children in the future. Tang Lei had S-level qualifications, and his two sons would not be much worse. With these spiritual rice, the talents of the two children would surely be revealed after they were six years old.

After leaving Yingzui Cliff, Tang Lei remained silent. He took the initiative to surrender to Hua Kai and would be considered a retainer of Hua Kai in the future. Retainers have much more freedom than servants, and it can be said that they have a two-way choice with the master. Hua Kai also hopes that Yingzui Cliff can become a new stronghold of Huajiabao.

The three walked for a day. Han Jinsheng and Tang Lei dealt with wild beasts on the road. Because Tang Lei's weight was generally not enough for horses to bear his weight, the three did not move very fast on the road. It was not until March 30th that they saw that the road began to become flat, and more people began to collect herbs and hunt in the mountains. Judging from their clothes, they were villagers near the county town.

Hua Kai has taught Tang Lei all the family martial arts and mental methods in the past few days. Tang Lei also took the time to practice when he rested on the road every day. Occasionally, he would compete with Han Jinsheng. Although Han Jinsheng was at the 9th level of Qidong Realm and had achieved a small success in [Splitting Sky Spear] and [Calming Heart Technique], he could only tie with Tang Lei, who had not yet mastered the mental methods and martial arts.

Hua Kai gave the two of them [Peeling Yuan Pill] and focused on instructing them in martial arts and mental methods. Their strength has improved rapidly in the past few days.

After climbing over a mountain, they finally saw a city in the distance. Hua Kai's most urgent task now was to find a horse that Tang Lei could ride, otherwise they would be too slow.

Entering Bo County, this can only be regarded as a small county town. The population in the city is only 5,000, but there are many villages outside the city.

Hua Kai had a good meal when he entered the city, and then found a good inn to stay in. On the second day, he began to come to the medicine shop here. Collecting medicinal materials is one of his main tasks in every city.

Unfortunately, not all pharmacies are willing to sell high-grade spiritual medicines like the Yao Family Pharmacy in Acheng. Hua Kai only found more than ten spiritual medicines below the second grade, and they were all relatively common.

Bo County is the largest county in Taishan County. Hua Kai searched for a long time in the livestock market. He only found two horses of the best quality, and the price was more than 40 gold. If he could not upgrade them to BMWs, they would not be able to bear Tang Lei's weight.

After staying in Bo County for two days, Hua Kai continued to travel west with Han Jinsheng and Tang Lei. It was only about 400 miles away from Handan City, the capital of the Warring States Period.

Hua Kai and Han Jinsheng rode on horses, and Tang Lei ran behind them. The speed was not slow at all. They traveled more than 60 miles a day. On the sixth day of April, they had already arrived outside Handan City.

Hua Kai had never been to Linzi City, but the moment he saw Handan City, he finally saw the prosperity of this aristocratic capital.

Handan City has a population of more than 300,000, which is slightly smaller than Linzi City. When Hua Kai arrived outside the city gate, he saw people wearing fine cloth everywhere coming in and out of Handan City.

Some nobles wearing brocade clothes were also seen everywhere. After paying 3 taels of silver, the three of them entered Handan City. What caught Hua Kai's eyes were tall pavilions. The houses on both sides of the road were all spiritual wooden pavilions with more than 4 floors. There were countless restaurants and teahouses on them. Some women wearing exquisite silk stood on a pavilion and smiled and chatted with Hua Kai and his three friends!

"Sir, are we going to buy horses now?" Tang Lei looked at the Handan City in front of him and felt uncomfortable all over.

"There is no rush to buy horses. Let's make some clothes for you first and find a place to live. The famous horses of Zhao State are well-known throughout the world. You will definitely find a BMW suitable for you to ride here." Hua Kai said.

Walking all the way to the inner city wall, Hua Kai wanted to go in and take a look, but the city guards told him that horses could not be taken to the inner city. Seeing a restaurant called [Chunfenglou] that was not bad, Hua Kai planned to eat first and settle the horse.

"Dear guests, do you want to stay in the hotel or have a meal? We have a special guide for Handan City. We can take you to all places in Handan City for only 10 taels of silver!" A waiter saw Hua Kai and his two companions coming over. He knew from their appearance that it was their first time to come to such a big city, so he started to introduce them.

"Bring three of the best rooms, a few good dishes, and a few pounds of wine!" Hua Kai said.

"Okay! Our [Chunfeng Tower] also provides exquisite courtyards, which will be equipped with special maids and housekeepers. If you stay in the other courtyard, you can ask the housekeeper if you want to know anything. Our housekeepers are all professionally trained, and you can leave some errands to the housekeeper..." The waiter asked someone to lead the two horses to the backyard while introducing Hua Kai.

"Okay, let's go to a small courtyard! You will send all the food to the courtyard later!" Hua Kai said.

"Understood! One courtyard costs 2 gold a day, please go this way!" the waiter said loudly.

Hua Kai took out a gold bar and threw it over. The waiter happily took the three of them to the other courtyard. Although the courtyard was not big, it had everything, including rockery, pavilions, and a small lake. It was obviously prepared for guests from aristocratic families.

Two maids and four servants were waiting at the door in the courtyard. When they saw the waiter bringing Hua Kai and others in, they greeted Hua Kai under the leadership of the housekeeper. The service in this big city was different.

The meal took two hours. Hua Kai and Han Jinsheng watched Tang Lei eat up the third table in a flash. Hua Kai spent 45 gold on hundreds of dishes for this meal. Tang Lei looked up and smiled at him embarrassedly after the last plate was finished.

The advantage of living in a separate courtyard is that as long as you pay enough, they can send you anything. The housekeeper will also introduce you to the characteristics of Handan City from time to time, which brothel woman is talented, which store has new goods recently, and as long as you have money, they can send you even fifth-grade weapons and treasure pills.

Several masters from the garment shop came to the villa to measure Tang Lei's clothes. Hua Kai also made a few sets of clothes for himself and Han Jinsheng. When it came to checkout, the other party calculated more than 64 gold. The most expensive one was the brocade suit customized by Hua Kai, which cost more than ten gold for each set.
