Nothing weighs on his mind, as the first commander of the Black Armor Army, Teng Qing Shan usually has nothing to worry about.
In his spare time, Teng Qing Shan also bought a large mansion in Jiangning County, not far from the northern border of Yuan Zong. The former owner of this mansion was a big salt merchant who wanted to make a big deal and needed silver to turn around, so he sold this mansion. Teng Qing Shan spent 300,000 taels of silver to buy it!
Early morning.
The northern gate of the Guiyuan Temple, where a guard in black armor stood upright, and pedestrians on the street didn't dare to approach this northern gate.
"Your Excellency!" The guards immediately bowed their heads in greeting as they saw the five people approaching.
"Uh-huh."
Teng Qing Shan smiled and nodded, then led his sister Qing Yu, cousin Qing Hu, as well as Xue Yun and Xue Qing, a total of five people, walking north along the Yuan Street and the Grand Canal embankment. They were heading towards the northeastern part of Jiangning City, an area where the wealthy resided.
The mansion near Jiangning Prefecture was even more valuable.
Having walked merely three or four miles, Teng Qing Shan stopped.
"It's this one." Teng Qing Shan pointed at the large gate, which was about 6 or 7 zhang wide. On both sides of the gate, there were two stone carvings of horses with raised front hooves, making the entire mansion look extremely majestic. The original signboard above the gate had already been removed.
"Master!" As soon as he saw Tun Qing Shan, the middle-aged man at the gate immediately came forward.
"What a grand mansion!" Zhuge Yun looked around, his eyes widening in admiration. "Big brother, your estate is quite large just from the outside, it must be covering several acres? Our family's ancestral home may have a lot of land, but there are too many people. I only got a few rooms, not even as good as this one."
"It covers an area of about ten mu," said Teng Qing Shan.
"Ten acres of land!" Qing Yu and Qing Hu were also delighted.
"Everyone go in and take a look." Teng Qing Shan immediately led them inside, where the fake mountain, lotus pond, garden, stone carvings, pavilions, and towers stood amidst mountains and water, making the space seem very large. In this mansion, after walking for a while, Qing Yu was even more bewildered.
Have to say, these Yangzhou salt merchants really know how to enjoy themselves.
"Old Master."
"Old Master."
Along the way, the maids in the mansion saw Tan Qing Shan and respectfully called out.
"There are still so many beautiful maids." Zhuge Yun sighed.
"It's a big mansion, just cleaning and watering flowers alone requires many people. So I've dismissed some of the maids and kept half of them, if there were any fewer, this large mansion wouldn't be manageable." Teng Qing Shan said, "As for the original guards, I've dismissed all of them, with my personal guard team, I don't need them anymore."
"Yes, I am a member of the Black Armor Guard, and of course, I'm much better than those other guards." Zhuge Yun said.
As the First Leader, there is a personal guard.
This Imperial Guard, led by those living outside, the Imperial Guard must also follow and protect the leader, this is the rule of the Return to the Origin Sect.
"Cheers!"
"Ah!"
Walking into a spacious martial arts training ground, I saw many imperial guards already practicing their morning exercises.
"Brother, buying such a large mansion, how can you live in it?" Qing Yu said in a low voice.
"We bought such a big place, living is secondary," said Teng Qing Shan. "There's no eternal prosperity, when I'm old and dead, the Teng family estate in the countryside will face all sorts of crises, it's better to move into the city. Inside the city is the safest. This mansion can accommodate over two thousand people, but it's a bit crowded. However, for several hundred people, it's no problem!"
Teng Qing Shan had already planned an escape route for Teng Family Village.
It's definitely not possible to stay in the countryside forever. Since Tengjiazhuang has a traditional craftsmanship of making weapons that is second to none, even surpassing the best craftsmen in Yicheng. If so, even if they enter the city, the people of Tengjiazhuang will not sit idle and waste their skills.
"Mm-hmm." Qing Yu listened and was overjoyed.
"This matter, wait until I bring my parents over, and I will discuss it with them first." Teng Qing Shan said with a smile.
Walking in the government office compound.
"Brother Teng." Zhuge Qing smiled and said, "You're moving into a new mansion, this is a big happy event, I couldn't afford to give you something too expensive, hmm, here!" As she spoke, she took out the package that was behind her back and handed it to Teng Qingshan. Zhuge Qing held the package, her sparkling eyes staring at Teng Qingshan.
"There's also a gift." Teng Qing Shan was surprised and smiled as he took it over.
"Brother, this is the fabric personally chosen by Xiao Qing, the snow silk from the temple, and every stitch was done by her own hands. Open it up and take a look, try it on, see how Xiao Qing's needlework is." Qing Yu also chimed in, while secretly winking at Zhuge Qing, who couldn't help but blush slightly.
"Yes, untie and take a look." Zhuge Yun also urged.
Hong Qingshan smiled and opened it. It was a stone-blue robe, which felt soft and comfortable to the touch, and should be high-quality fabric.
"Huh!" With one shake, Teng Qing Shan directly put it on his body.
"The size is just right." Teng Qing Shan also took a look inside, where there was a layer of snow silkworm silk. "Xiao Qing's craftsmanship is really good." Suddenly, Teng Qing Shan's gaze locked onto the snow silkworm silk beside the pocket.
The silkworm cocoons were white, and that one streak of dark red blood was very eye-catching.
Always nervous, worried that Tong Qing Shan would see the bloodstain, seeing Tong Qing Shan's expression on his face: "He saw it!" Unconsciously blushing, awkwardly said: "Tong big brother, that...that was me being careless, pricked my finger with a needle and dripped it on."
"Needle pierced through your finger, sister, will your craft still pierce through your fingers?" Zhuge Yun exclaimed in surprise.
"It can't be helped." said Zhuge Qing.
"Xiao Qing has worked hard, this dress is very good." Teng Qingshan smiled and said, "The inner layer of snow silk is also comfortable to wear on the body."
Zhuge Qing couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this.
……
In the Guiyuan Sect, even a Black Armor Army General of the first level can live outside, let alone the Sect Leader and Elders. As for the Law Enforcement Elder, their power is even more terrifying.
Teng Qing Shan formally became the Law Enforcement Elder's disciple on November 3rd.
……
While Teng Qing Shan bought that mansion, his sister Qing Yu named it 'Teng Fu'. According to Qing Yu's words, whenever she saw other mansions like 'Li Fu' or 'Guo Fu', she would feel jealous. So, she also gave their own mansion the name 'Teng Fu'!
In the future, people from Teng's family will also move in, Teng Mansion, the name is quite fitting.
On the evening of November 2nd.
Teng Mansion, a martial arts training ground located in Teng Qing Shan's sole possession.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"...
A series of explosions came from the martial arts arena, and all that could be seen was Teng Qing Shan wearing only long pants, his upper body covered in sweat. His left hand grasped the middle of the Wheel Turning Gun, while his right hand held the end. With a sudden forward thrust of his right hand, a completely different force emerged silently between his two hands.
Buzz!
Gun head produces blurry illusions!
"Hmph!" Teng Qing Shan suddenly released his left hand and grasped the Wheel of Reincarnation Gun with his right, using the momentum to launch a fierce forward thrust.
Pfft!
A crimson spiral energy suddenly wrapped around the gun head, this spiral-shaped crimson innate true yuan actually rotated and converged towards the tip of the revolving gun. Such a strong spiral structure innate true yuan was compressed into a point in an instant, gathering at the tip of the gun!
It's just that the air is compressed into a point in an instant, and under extremely high pressure, the explosive force is astonishing, let alone the innate true yuan.
"Boom!" A deafening explosion erupted from the tip of the revolver, sending shockwaves flying in all directions. The air blades around it were already torn apart, and the grass was scorched with deep gashes. It wasn't hard to imagine how terrifying it would be if the muzzle was pointed at an enemy's face and suddenly exploded with a loud bang.
Since reaching the congenital boundary, this congenital true yuan can exist independently. Teng Qing Shan's Five Elements Gun Technique's fourth gun is already half completed.
"No, no!"
Teng Qing Shan furrowed his brow and shook his head.
Because it is an experimental recruitment method, the innate true yuan for trial is very rare.
"This little congenital true yuan, condensed into a point. The penetrating power of the Wheel of Reincarnation itself cannot be combined with it. Not to mention, full force has been exerted." Teng Qing Shan shook his head secretly, this fourth move of the Xing Yi Five Elements Spear was created by fusing the "Fierce Fire Five Styles" and the Tiger Cannon Fist.
Logically speaking, once it's launched!
A powerful innate true yuan will form a vortex at the gun head, and then along the force of the vortex, compress it into one point at the gun tip! This is the first point!
The second point!
It is the strongest force burst out by Qing Shan in the way of 'Tiger Cannon Fist', producing a shocking penetrating power through the Wheel Gun. This alone makes its power no weaker than the Poison Dragon Drill. And the 'First Point' innate true yuan compressed into one point along the spiral force path, with a power close to that of the 'Poison Dragon Drill'.
Once the two points combine, the power will be extremely terrifying!
"It's indeed too difficult to combine two points." Teng Qing shook his head.
This is too demanding for the wheel gun control.
Must first use the principle of 'fire transmission' to make the innate true yuan form a vortex and compress it into one point, then immediately turn it into tiger cannon fist power, making the whole body's power path burst through the wheel return gun. Also, two points of power must be burst at the same instant! To achieve the strongest effect!
"I've used just a tiny bit of Innate True Essence, but it's still not enough. What should I do?" Teng Qing Shan was somewhat worried.
He has been worried about this problem for several days.
If Zhuge Yuanhong knew about it, he would probably be shocked.
Teng Qing Shan's move was too difficult to execute.
Whether it's mental state requirements, strength requirements, innate true yuan requirements, or even the control requirements for the reincarnation gun, they are all strict to the extreme.
"The biggest problem is that the innate true yuan is in a spiral structure, compressed into one point. It must be a desperate situation with a glimmer of hope, but the Tiger Cannon Fist is also a furious and violent state of mind... The two states of mind are not consistent." Tan Qing Shan pondered for a long time, his face suddenly changing, "No! Wrong, wrong, wrong!!! The innate true yuan, the control method was wrong!"
Teng Qing Shan's eyes lit up and he immediately prepared for another experiment.
Just at this time ——
"Brother!" Little sister Qing Yu ran over, "You're still practicing?"
"Something's up?" Teng Qing Shan looked at his sister with a puzzled expression.
"Tomorrow, brother, you'll officially become a law enforcement elder. Tonight, I, Xiao Yun, and Xiao Qing are going to take you on a night tour of the Grand Canal! Let's celebrate in advance!" Qing Yu said, Teng Qing Shan looked at the sky and smiled, nodding: "Alright, I'll go wash up and change my clothes."
Watching Qingyuan Mountain leave, Qingyu excitedly clenched his fist: "Hehe, Xiaoqing, it's up to you now."
