If Li Qingshan knew what he was thinking, he would definitely praise him for having a good eye. He was a true innate master, but this Ox Demon's Fist of Great Strength did not place much emphasis on Qi, and he had only cultivated it for a short time, so it did not show.
His mind was completely immersed in the spear technique. When he was excited, he shook his wrist, and seven spear flowers bloomed. They were like flowers in full bloom, bright and dazzling, shaking the air and making banging sounds.
Li Qingshan suddenly retracted his spear, and the wind stopped. His muscles relaxed, "So satisfying!"
Although he was not a master of the spear, after all, no matter how good his comprehension was, no matter how profound his supernatural powers were, he could not compare to a true master of the spear, who had decades or even a lifetime of practice.
But no master of the spear was his match. As long as their weapons collided, the Overlord Spear that weighed 142 kilograms, in addition to his Ox Demon's Great Strength, would send any weapon flying. A crack between the thumb and forefinger would be a light injury, and the bones in his hand or even his arm could be broken.
This was why he had to find a heavy weapon. As the saying goes, one man can defeat ten men.
After testing the spear, Li Qingshan was still not satisfied, "Shopkeeper, I need two more things. One is a feather arrow, and the other is armor. You don't seem to have them here."
He had already decided to use his advantage to the fullest. Although his Ox Demon Forges its Hide could block the fists of a second rate master, or even the swords of a normal person, it could not block the weapons of a third rate master infused with inner force. Blunt weapons and sharp weapons were two different things.
With his strength, even if he wore a few dozen kilograms of armor, it would not be a burden, but his defense would greatly increase. When he rushed into the enemy's lair, he would not have to worry about the enemy's numbers.
The shopkeeper said awkwardly, "These are all military equipment, not normal weapons. Normally, they are not allowed to be sold. I'm afraid they can only be found in the city's arsenal."
Actually, this was not the main reason. Most of his customers were people of the pugilistic world. Who would wear heavy armor when they walked the pugilistic world? There were even fewer people in the pugilistic world who used bows as weapons. Otherwise, with the profit-seeking nature of the merchants and the strong background of the Arsenal of Arms, as long as there was money to be made, there was nothing they wouldn't sell.
Li Qingshan nodded, "Alright, then I'll bid you farewell."
The shopkeeper said, "Wait, may I know young hero's name? Why have I never seen you before?"
"I'm Li Qingshan. This is my first time in Qingyang, so of course you haven't seen me before."
"The Descending Tiger, Li Qingshan!" The shopkeeper was shocked. How could he not know about the person who had caused such an uproar recently?
Li Qingshan raised his eyebrows and made up his mind to change his nickname. He went to the silk shop to buy a set of good clothes and booked a room in the best inn in the city.
Li Qingshan washed up and changed his clothes. When he came out again, Li Long also praised him, "Good!"
He had changed into a set of navy-blue warrior's clothes, which accentuated his well-built figure. He seemed extremely valiant, but it was not just the clothes that made the man. After experiencing slaughter and arduous cultivation, he was in high spirits, like a treasured sword that was gradually sharpening its edge.
His bronze colored face still couldn't be said to be very handsome, but the corners of his face were clear like a stone carving. As he looked around, he really had the flavor of his nickname 'Fierce Tiger Descends the Mountain', and he was awe-inspiring and didn't allow others to belittle him.
At this moment, two bailiffs suddenly arrived. When they saw Li Qingshan, they bowed in a hurry. They did not even dare to look at him directly, completely unlike the arrogance they would show to regular citizens. "May I ask if you are young hero Li? Our district magistrate wishes to see you. The carriage has already been prepared."
Li Qingshan was stunned. He did not know what the district magistrate wanted him to do. Could it be that he wanted to reward him for killing the bandits? He immediately agreed. Since he was the district magistrate, he had the responsibility of suppressing the bandits and pacifying the people. If he could send some people, then he would be more confident.
Entrusting the Overlord Spear to Li Long, Li Qingshan followed the bailiffs to the front of the yamen. A fat figure came out to greet him, grabbing Li Qingshan's hand. He looked him up and down, his face full of admiration.
Li Qingshan withdrew his hand with a face full of discomfort. "Sir, why are you looking for me?"
"Little benefactor, have you forgotten about me? That day on the mountain, the tiger! "
Li Qingshan suddenly remembered. "So it was you!"
"This official is Ye Dachuan. I have been looking for little benefactor for a long time. Please come in!" Ye Dachuan welcomed Li Qingshan into the hall behind the yamen. His face changed. "Why are you still wandering around the city? Quickly escape!"
Li Qingshan said, "Why would I escape?"
The advisor said, "Do you really have no idea what's good for you? The people of the Black Wind mountain are searching for you everywhere. If you don't hide your tracks properly and show your face in public in Qingyang city, someone will come knocking tomorrow to take your life. "
As he said that, he shoved a bag of silver and other items into his hands. "We've already prepared a horse outside. You can hurry to Clear River city right away. Don't stop along the way. There's a letter in there. Take it to the prefectural yamen and hand it to the district magistrate … Ouch!"
Ye Dachuan kicked the advisor. "That's what I wanted to say. I'll get my younger sister to ask the prefectural magistrate to guarantee you a prosperous future. No matter how powerful the people of the Black Wind mountain are, they won't be able to chase you there." Then he sighed. "Originally, I wanted to keep you as a constable so that you can lend me a hand and collect more bandit suppressing silver. Cough, cough. The reinforcements I've asked for haven't arrived yet. Perhaps they've been delayed on the way here? This place is just too remote."
The advisor thought, The prefectural magistrate would love nothing more than for you to die a clean death. Why would he send someone for you?
Originally, Li Qingshan found it hilarious. Ye Dachuan was short and chubby. He wore a set of great, red official robes, which made him seem extremely like the "corrupt officials" in dramas and novels. Even if they were slightly better, they would just be mediocre, while if they were slightly worse, they would just oppress the good.
However, when he saw how eager he was to pave a path for him, he was touched. No matter how many crafty and despicable people there were in the world, there would always be people who knew how to repay kindness.
Originally, when he left the mountain, his head was filled with thoughts of how he could uproot the Black Wind stronghold and slaughter them all before avenging the humiliation from the young master of the Dragon's Gate. His thoughts were written all over his face, and he radiated with murderousness. As time went on like this, his vicious, murderous side would definitely gain the upper hand.
However, Li Long always helped him out because they were from the same hometown, while Ye Dachuan earnestly wanted to repay him for saving his life. Neither of them could be regarded as righteous people. They were just ordinary people among the masses, but it was exactly these people that allowed him to see that human nature was not just limited to evil.
Li Qingshan clasped his hands. "Thank you for your kind intentions, sir Ye. There's no need to call me a benefactor. You can just call me Qingshan. However, I didn't come back this time to escape!"
"You're not going to escape?" Ye Dachuan said furiously, "Kid, you don't know your place. Do you know just how great of a risk I've taken by letting you enter the government office?"
The advisor also tried to persuade him, "Yeah, you should escape!"
Li Qingshan smiled. "I can escape, but Crouching Ox village can't escape. As for you, sir Ye, you can't escape either, can you? Since I'm bold enough to remain here, I obviously have some confidence. "He opened the bag and saw a few silver ingots. He grabbed them and squeezed them casually.
Ye Dachuan and the advisor widened their eyes as they watched the silver ooze out of Li Qingshan's hand like mud. They were not people of the jianghu, so they had never seen martial arts like this before. Immediately, their evaluation of Li Qingshan increased by another level. Ye Dachuan hesitated. "With your martial arts, you might really be safe as long as you remain in Qingyang city. I'll introduce you to a few more people. I don't think the bandits of the Black Wind mountain will be bold enough to attack the city." He wanted Li Qingshan to stay behind very much. By then, if any aristocrat dared to look down on him, he would send Li Qingshan to beat them up. He would be able to collect whatever amount of silver he wanted.
Li Qingshan said, "Sir, you said you want me to become a sheriff?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Ye Dachuan beamed with joy. He had already begun fantasizing about the awe-inspiring might of running around with Li Qingshan.
