Chapter 133 The human race has no emperor, Tianji Ancient City
"Greetings to Elder Huo Luan, the big shopkeeper just wants me to ask my senior brother for something."
Seeing Huo Luan's reaction, Lin Qing's eyes became even more confused.
He couldn't help but look at the middle-aged man again, and Chuanyin asked:
"What's wrong? What's the origin of this Tongtian Chamber of Commerce?"
Huo Luan's voice also rang in his heart in time, speaking slowly.
After hearing everything, Lin Qing's pupils expanded unconsciously.
So awesome?
The Tongtian Chamber of Commerce, as the name suggests, is a chamber of commerce with Tongtian means.
It is said that as long as they give money, there is nothing they can't do and there is nothing they can't buy.
As for this golden sign, no one has been able to successfully break it so far.
The time when the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce appeared cannot be traced back, and it may be 10 or 20 years ago.
There are even rumors that the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce already existed before the human race became powerful.
Judging from the strength it has displayed, this rumor is unfounded.
Their chambers of commerce are all over the world, and their shops are everywhere in monsters, demons, humans, and some neutral areas.
Tongtian Inn, Tongtian Winery, Tongtian Danfang, Tongtian Qifang are everywhere, and even some Goulan brothels are their properties.
The first time it became famous in front of the world was when an immortal artifact was publicly auctioned over 10,000 years ago!
It was also at that time that the powerful forces in this world were shocked to discover that there were such huge creatures living in this world in an intricate manner.
It is said that in order to explore the roots of Tongtian Chamber of Commerce, there was a battle between Mahayana.
The final result is unknown, but the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce still exists, and after turning from darkness to light, it becomes more and more powerful!
It is considered by some strong men of the human race to be the fifth largest sect of the human race, the fourth evil place of the demon race, and the seventh holy land of the demon race!
This shows that its strength is far beyond the imagination of the world.
But now they actually found Ziyang Mansion, which made Lin Qing have to be wary.
He and Huo Luan looked at each other, looked at the middle-aged man, and asked:
"Whatever you want, tell me and listen."
Tongtianlang waited for a long time and knew that the senior brother must have learned about the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce during this period, but he still acted so calmly.
This made him think of the mysterious person who appeared, and thought that Ziyang Mansion indeed had an unusual backer.
Regarding the mysterious man, the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce conducted a month-long investigation, but found that no matter which tribe of humans, demons, or demons, there was no trace of this person's appearance, it was as if he appeared out of thin air.
That's why he came to the door in person and wanted to discuss cooperation.
Putting away his thoughts, Tongtenro said in a deep voice:
"To be honest, Tongtian Chamber of Commerce wants to buy the secret realm full of bones."
As soon as these words came out, Lin Qing and Huo Luan both frowned, in perfect agreement.
Lin Qing naturally knew the value of that secret realm, and originally planned to wait until Senior Huo Lie finished his work with the Five Elements Sect before exploring it personally.
After all, the father and daughter had helped Ziyang Mansion a lot, and Ziyang Mansion was happy to reciprocate the favor.
But the sudden appearance of the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce wanted to interfere, which was a bit rude.
After thinking for a while, Lin Qing said in a deep voice:
"Fellow Taoist, to be honest, Senior Huo Lie from the Five Elements Sect will come here to investigate in person in the near future. I'm sorry that Ziyang Mansion cannot agree."
There was no dissatisfaction on Tongtenro's face. He just smiled and continued:
"Then please first listen to the conditions offered by Tongtian Chamber of Commerce, Senior Brother."
"it is good."
Just listen to Tong Tianlang slowly say:
"First, Tongtian Chamber of Commerce will help Ziyang Mansion build a mountain-protecting formation that even Mahayana can't break. Of course, senior Huo Lie, an extremely powerful Mahayana holding an immortal weapon, can still break through it after spending some time."
"Second, the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce will send two Mahayana men to stay in Ziyang Mansion for 100 years to prevent the recent intrusion of young people.
If your sect is worried about this, you can replace it with a puppet from the early Mahayana period, with a useful life of 200 years. "
"Three, one billion spirit stones."
Hearing these conditions, Huo Luan's pupils shrank slightly. It had to be said that if she represented the Ziyang Mansion, her heart must have been moved at this moment.
She turned to look at Lin Qing aside, but saw that he looked as usual, still drinking tea and eating melon seeds leisurely.
"This kid is not moved?"
How could Lin Qing not be moved, but he quickly calmed down, not to mention whether there was any danger in handing over the mountain protection formation to an unknown chamber of commerce to arrange it.
It would be too dangerous to put two Mahayana people who do not belong to the sect here. They might be killed one night without even knowing it.
As for the one billion spirit stones, if they were exchanged for monsters of equivalent value, Lin Qing would agree without even thinking.
Now there is no need to give him a billion years of life. As long as he is given 500 million years of life, the secret realm will belong to the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce.
Moreover, the price given by the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce further confirms what the Supreme Elder said before, that the value of that secret realm is immeasurable!
With countless cases from his previous life before him, how could he pick up sesame seeds and lose the watermelon?
All, Lin Qing decisively refused.
"I'm sorry, Senior Huo Lie is my master, and he is very kind to Ziyang Mansion, so I can't agree to it."
Regarding this result, Tong Tianlang was not surprised at all. After all, it could be seen from Feng Zhong's previous performance that the Ziyang Mansion also knew the value of this secret realm.
However, what the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce cares about is not the secret realm itself, but the secrets hidden behind this secret realm.
Compared to those sects with tens of thousands of years of inheritance, the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce cares more about news and all kinds of secrets.
As for the magic pills and elixirs from the Secret Realm of Money, they have too many.
Therefore, even if you don't get the right to use the secret realm, it's okay to get some rights to know.
So Tong Tianlang smiled, looked at Huo Luan, then looked at Lin Qing, and continued:
"In this case, can this secret realm be jointly developed by the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce and the Five Elements Sect?
The Tongtian Chamber of Commerce will provide money and effort, and the Five Elements Sect will provide personnel. If any rare treasures are discovered by then, the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce will not take them. "
"Then what are you planning?" Lin Qing asked with a smile.
Tong Tianlang showed a kind smile again, cupped his hands towards him, and said:
"To be honest, Tongtian Chamber of Commerce only wants to know the secret of this secret realm, where it came from, where it died, who established the secret realm, and who buried those people in it."
Lin Qing looked at Huo Luan, he did not intend to refuse the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce's request.
Ziyang Mansion is now in the center of the storm. It seems peaceful, but there is a risk of overturning at any time.
Now that the behemoth Tongtian Chamber of Commerce has joined in, it will be more secure for the three parties to jointly mine the secret realm.
Huo Luan's eyes flickered, and she could not find any reason to refute Tong Tianlang's request.
After all, in this crisis in Ziyang Mansion, if the follow-up senior does not appear, the secret realm with the black door will be the focus of the entire human race.
After all, there are more than a million bones inside.
Now, everyone's attention has been distracted by the sudden appearance of the mysterious senior. Sooner or later, someone will think of this secret realm.
And once the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce joins, it can also share some of the pressure from the Five Elements Sect.
But the price still needs to be discussed carefully.
Huo Luan looked at Tong Tianlang, put away the smile on his face, and his whole person became majestic, revealing an aura that would repel people thousands of miles away.
"My Five Elements Sect has agreed to this matter, but some changes need to be made in the reward given to Ziyang Mansion."
After saying that, Huo Luan looked to Lin Qing for his opinion, and Lin Qing naturally nodded in agreement.
"Please tell me." Tong Tianlang continued to smile.
"The fourth condition is that when the Tower of Babel is truly opened, help him get the real Tower of Babel."
Tower of Babel?
Lin Qing was stunned for a moment, then looked at the stone tower with mottled aura in the distance. If Huo Luan hadn't mentioned it, he would have forgotten about it.
Is the real Tower of Babel about to be opened?He also promised old man Tianzhenzi to help him find a successor.
The two looked at each other, and Huo Luan nodded silently. Since the age of great conflict is about to begin, the Tower of Babel will naturally revive.
As the immortal weapon that the human race has mastered in formation formations, it is natural that we should try our best to pursue it.
But unexpectedly, Tong Tianlang did not reply in time. Instead, he took out a gossip-shaped jade plaque, as if he was asking something.
After a while, Tong Tianlang put away the jade plaque, slowly raised his head, and showed an apologetic smile.
"Elder Huo Luan, I'm sorry, someone has already booked the Babel Tower in advance. Please forgive me for not being able to agree."
"Who?" She frowned. Although the human race has a vast territory, there are many people who can pass through the ninth floor of the Babel Tower through various means.
But she has never seen a young disciple who is strong enough and proficient in formations.
"Please forgive me for the inconvenience of disclosing it, and please ask Elder Huo Luan to change the conditions."
Huo Luan looked dignified and sat on the stone bench with a meticulous figure. Lin Qing looked from one side and could see the graceful curves of his body and the delicate profile of his face.
Especially the mysterious aura revealed on his body. If he were placed in future generations, he would definitely be a big star.
"Boy, do you need anything else? Just ask for elixirs, magic weapons, and techniques."
A lazy voice sounded in Lin Qing's heart. His expression remained unchanged and he continued to eat melon seeds while transmitting the voice.
"I don't lack anything, you decide for yourself."
"it is good."
After pondering for a moment, Huo Luan slowly spoke:
"A fragment of the royal mountain."
As soon as these words came out, Tong Tianlang showed hesitation, and Lin Qing also frowned.
The remaining picture of Mount Huang?What the hell is this?Why is it so familiar?
Suddenly, his eyes widened slightly, and he thought of the roll of parchment found from the people on the Blood Sea, which seemed to be called the Fragment of the Imperial Mountain.
Could it be a treasure?
Yes, Lin Qing remembered the cost of repairing it. It seemed that the first stage would cost 18 years of life. This number shocked him at the time, so he just threw the long picture away without thinking about it.
Excitement gradually appeared in his eyes, but when he thought of outsiders, he quickly suppressed the emotion in his eyes and continued to remain calm.
Tong Tianlang, on the other hand, struggled for a moment, then a flash of feeling flashed in his eyes and he said:
"can."
Hearing his reply, Huo Luan also smiled and nodded, "Okay, I will let you know when my father comes."
"Thank you, Elder Huo Luan. I'll be waiting for you at Tongtian Winery outside Ziyang Mansion."
Huo Luan nodded, and Tong Tianlang respectfully left.
After Lin Qing's consciousness noticed that he left Ziyang Mansion, he quickly stood up, walked directly to Huo Luan, and pulled her up.
"Let's go, let me show you something good."
Although she was full of doubts, she was still pulled away by Lin Qing, and before leaving, she put all the food on the table into the storage ring.
When the disciples who were carrying out civil engineering projects on the side saw this scene, their eyes suddenly lit up.
After everyone looked at each other, they all understood what they were thinking.
In this way, under the relay-like gaze of pairs of eyes, Lin Qing pulled Huo Luan back to the cave.
Seeing this scene, the last pair of eyes widened suddenly, and they quickly turned back to the previous pair of eyes and nodded vigorously.
As a result, a magical scene appeared in Ziyang Mansion. The disciples whispered to each other and nodded, which spread back to the pavilion.
After entering the cave, Lin Qing pressed her on the chair and ran to the pile of debris inside without saying anything, rummaging around.
As expected, Huo Luan had a strange look on her face and stood up and walked behind him. When she saw the messy pile of magic weapons, a strange look flashed in her eyes and she asked softly:
"What are you looking for?"
Lin Qing did not answer, but continued to search. Huangtian paid off and finally found the parchment in the gap between the two magic weapons.
After struggling to take it out, Lin Qing patted the dust on it, showed a satisfied smile, and excitedly pulled Huo Luan to sit down at the stone table.
He unrolled the parchment scroll, placed it on the stone table, and asked:
"Come, come, let's see, is this the remaining picture of Mount Huang you are talking about?"
Huo Luan's eyes became more and more weird. She stared at the parchment on the stone table without saying a word for a long time. After her chest heaved for a while, she turned her head and looked at Lin Qing, as if she didn't know how to open it.
"Uh, where did you come from?"
"Don't worry about whether it's what you want."
Huo Luan nodded speechlessly.
boom!
Lin Qing slapped the table and stood up suddenly, "Isn't that a loss? Think about what you want, and we'll go find him later and ask him to change it."
Huo Luan felt a pain in his head at this moment. He held his head with one hand and gently rubbed the center of his eyebrows with his index finger and thumb.
At the same time, he pulled Lin Qing to sit down with his left hand, sighed, and then spoke.
"Sit down, sit down, do you know what the remains of Mount Huang are?"
Lin Qing shook his head, of course he didn't know.
"Alas" Huo Luan sighed again and said:
"Huangshan is a place where the King of Monsters sleeps, and there are also rumors that it is the place where he died.
It is said that there are 18 pieces of this residual map. As long as they are combined, you can find the legendary Imperial Mountain, and you can also get the inheritance and treasure of the Demon King. It is said that there are secrets of the fairy world in it. "
Demon King?what is that?
A big question mark appeared on Lin Qing's head. Doesn't the Demon Clan only have six holy lands?Why did another Demon King appear?
"In the ancient times, all the races in the world were in decline, and only the demon tribe was strong. At that time, the demon tribe was the only overlord in the world. At that time, the demon tribe did not have a so-called holy land.
All demon clans are under the control of Huangshan, and the master of Huangshan is the demon emperor! "
After hearing Huo Luan's explanation, Lin Qing's eyes widened slightly and he looked at the parchment on the table.
"What happened next? The Demon King died?"
She shook her head slowly, "I don't know, he may be dead, or he may be sleeping in the Imperial Mountain, so the demon clan is particularly interested in the remnant map of the Imperial Mountain.
If they want to restore the glory of the demon clan in the ancient times, they must find the demon emperor, or the demon emperor's inheritance. Otherwise, sooner or later, their six holy lands will become the seven holy lands. Although they will become more powerful, they will never be unified. day. "
Lin Qing blinked. He was considering whether to restore the remaining map of Huangshan Mountain. After all, this might be the biggest treasure he had ever come into contact with.
If there is a treasure of the Demon Emperor in it, you will make a fortune.
But after thinking about it, Lin Qing still didn't act rashly, mainly because he didn't have enough lifespan, and he wanted to save his lifespan to cultivate the Human Emperor Sword.
Thinking of this, a flash of light suddenly flashed in Lin Qing's mind, and she looked at Huo Luan with burning eyes, seeing that she was extremely uncomfortable.
"what happened to you?"
"The demon clan has a demon emperor, so does the human clan have an emperor?" Lin Qing believed that there was, after all, the sword of the human emperor was in his hand.
Hearing this question, even Huo Luan couldn't help but be stunned.
She had never considered this issue.
However, according to clear records, the human race began to rise five to six million years ago, and one genius after another emerged. However, the monster race at that time was still a behemoth to the human race.
It wasn't until four geniuses emerged and established the four major sects that the rise of the human race began to accelerate.
Until the last 30 to [-] years, although the demon clan was separated, the human race was still strong, and even began to attack the demon clan areas in recent years.
Then, there should be no human emperor that this boy mentioned.
But this seems unreasonable. It makes no sense that only the demon clan has an emperor, but not the human clan, but there is no record of it.
Huo Luan frowned delicately, confusion flashed in his eyes, and he said slowly:
"There is no Human Emperor in the records of the human race, but because it is so old, there may be one, but it has not been passed down."
"There must be!" Lin Qing said silently to herself, giving her confirmation.
He continued: "Then when you return to the Five Elements Sect, check it carefully. I think the human race should also have it."
Hearing this, Huo Luan said that this was what he meant, but then her eyes became more and more strange. She looked the boy up and down, narrowed her eyes, and showed a wicked smile.
"What do you think? Do you want to become the Human Emperor?"
Lin Qing's mouth twitched, feeling that this woman's brain circuit was indeed a bit weird.
But without his correction, Huo Luan immediately gave up the idea and laughed at himself.
With how lazy this kid is, it would be difficult for him to become an elder, let alone a human emperor.
Seeing that the matter was settled, Lin Qing threw the remaining picture of Huangshan into the pile of debris and prepared to leave.
Huo Luan saw all this and asked hesitantly: "You put it there?"
"Of course, I am also a popular figure now, and there are many people who want to take action against me. If I die suddenly, I can leave some legacy here.
If I really die by then, you should take away all the things in this house, so as not to cause trouble to Ziyang Mansion. "
I have to say that this statement makes perfect Luan looked at him intently, not seeing the slightest fear in the boy's eyes. Some were just self-deprecating, and some were calm.
Slowly, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she began to appreciate this shameless boy more and more.
Even though she is now promoted to Mahayana, this guy's attitude towards her has not changed, he is still the same as before, which makes her very happy.
Moreover, now that he holds a high position in Ziyang Mansion, his cultivation is advanced, and even his background has become unfathomable, but his attitude towards death has not changed, he is still fearless, and he looks like he doesn't care at all. This is valuable.
"Are you leaving?" Lin Qing bent down, stretched out his palm and put it in front of her eyes, complaining in his mind what food was this woman thinking about?
"Let's go!" Huo Luan stood up in a flash, skipping to the entrance of the cave without caring about his image, and raised his chin towards Lin Qing.
"Tell me about your third master. I can be considered your second master after all."
"it is good!"
The sun gradually sets, and the afterglow is emitting the last trace of light and heat, dyeing the entire land orange-red.
At the end of the line of sight, two figures were walking quietly in Ziyang Mansion. One was wearing a fiery red dress and the other was wearing a white robe.
Their backs were stretched by the last afterglow.
"It's that simple?"
The moon and stars were sparse, and on the highest mountain peak of Ziyang Mansion, two people were lying there quietly, leaning on their arms and looking at the starry sky above their heads.
"Of course, he saw that my bones were amazing and accepted me as his disciple, saying that I would achieve great things in the future."
Huo Luan curled his lips and didn't believe this answer. This guy was talking nonsense.
In fact, Lin Qing is just talking nonsense. You can't just say that the main body has given birth to a clone.
"When do you plan to be promoted to Transformation God?" Huo Luan, with his head resting on his arm, looked at the bright starry sky and asked in a lazy voice.
"I am still too young and not in a good state of mind, so I will easily fail in my promotion."
In this regard, Lin Qing also expressed that she was speechless. Why does it require a state of mind to be promoted to a god?
In this month, he read many breakthrough experiences of senior Transformation Gods.
Finally, a conclusion was drawn, which is:
"Know your mind and see your nature, and go straight to your true heart."
This step is very simple for some people.
For example, the Supreme Elder and Dan Qingzi, one of them hopes that the sect will be strong, and the other hopes that the alchemy path will be prosperous, so they will naturally be able to advance smoothly.
It was more difficult for Feng Yangping, a cheap master, because he was too confident in his own strength, so he deceived himself. But after experiencing the mortal transformation, he naturally made a breakthrough.
As for what happened between him and the girl in Zuixian Tower, Lin Qing didn't dare to ask...
But later I heard from Lin Guang that the girl no longer worked in Zuixian Tower.
Lin Qing just smiled evilly at this, knowing it well.
As for himself?I really don’t have anything I want, now I just want to save my life.
As for the state of mind, it would have been much easier to deal with it in the previous life. Once the loan was paid off, he could buy a few buildings, find a wife, and have a child, and all the worries would be gone.
But thinking about this now is nothing more than wishful thinking
With his current strong background, if Lin Qing wants to settle down anywhere in the human race, it will be too easy and he will lose some sense of accomplishment.
It probably won't have any effect on breakthroughs.
Seeing Lin Qing's face showing depression, confusion, and fear from time to time, the fire of gossip in Huo Luan's eyes burned brightly.
He propped up his head with one arm, lay down on the grass, and asked hurriedly:
"Disciple, master doesn't know how old you are this year."
"Ah?" Lin Qing looked back at her. If it included her past life, it would be really big.
But Lin Qing felt that during the more than ten years in Linjia Village, she never worked and was just raising children.
There has been no increase in experience, and my IQ has not increased, but may have declined.
If we were to make every calculation, he was only in his 20s now, so it would be a compromise for his two lifetimes combined.
"30 is old."
Hearing the answer, Huo Luan's mouth opened. It was indeed a bit small, less than a fraction of hers.
Finally he said sarcastically:
"That is indeed a bit young, but there is no need to worry about the breakthrough. My age when I broke through to become a god is 540 years old."
Lin Qing: .
Huoluan:.
As soon as the words came out, both of them fell silent.
Huo Luan also realized that not only had this kid not reached a fraction of the Mahayana stage, he had not even reached a fraction of her transformation stage...
It is not that there were people who reached the peak of Yuanying before they were a hundred years old, but the stage from the peak of Yuanying to the stage of becoming a god is the most important step for a monk.
There are many talented and talented people who have fallen on this threshold. Now that Lin Qingman is only 30 years old, there is really no need to worry.
But he is different, he has cheats
As long as he can break through the realm of divine transformation now, he will be at the peak of divine transformation the next day, no, the next second, and he can't wait for this.
Especially the situation we are facing now, the so-called era of great strife, has brought out some demons and monsters, and Ziyang Mansion has also made a big splash.
There may be something wrong in the future. If you don't improve your strength quickly, you may die without knowing how.
In the eyes of outsiders, his background is mysterious and powerful, and he has an omnipotent master, but only he knows the truth or not.
After thinking about it, Lin Qing couldn't find any good solution, and his state of mind was still too mysterious for him.
However, he planned to let the main body break through in a few days to see what effect it had.
After these several breakthroughs, he also discovered that the clone's breakthroughs did not provide any experience at all.
Anyway, something is going to happen, so it's better to be earlier.
Neither of them continued to talk, each had their own thoughts, lying there quietly looking at the starry sky above their heads.
Suddenly, Lin Qing thought of something. After hesitating for a long time, he decided to ask.
He turned his body sideways and looked at the fiery red figure, and could vaguely see the faint smile on her face.
"I can't even break through, why is she laughing?"
Lin Qing complained secretly in her heart, but still showed a sneer on her face and asked the question:
"What was your intention when you broke through to become a god?"
With a Mahayana by his side, Lin Qing felt that he still needed to learn more experience.
But seeing Huo Luan's blushing face and hesitant look, Lin Qing became even more curious and asked immediately.
"Speak quickly, my breakthrough depends on you."
His chest rose and fell violently twice. Huo Luan turned his head sideways and answered in an imperceptible voice:
"Eat delicious food from all over the world..."
what?
For a moment, he felt that Huo Luan was the one who traveled through time.
Because he had this kind of dream before, but he gave up this dream after he suffered a severe beating from the boss and his blood sugar and blood pressure increased.
Besides, isn’t eating a hobby?Can this also be intentional?
Due to Lin Qing's unblinking gaze, Huo Luan was a little embarrassed, turned his head away, and continued to look at the sky.
However, her slightly rising and falling chest revealed her inner unrest.
After all, such private matters as one's intention are generally not disclosed. If enemies find out, it will be troublesome and they may be targeted.
After learning that hobbies can also be used to achieve breakthroughs in spiritual transformation, Lin Qing's imagination widened and he thought about whether he could make life-saving a hobby, or to simplify it, it would be killing.
However, looking at Huo Luan's current love for eating, it is probably closely related to his intention to transform into a god, which makes him a little more worried, in case he becomes a murderous maniac in the future.
But he didn't ask again, after all, it was personal privacy.
So what is his intention?
Feeling a little depressed, the main body lying in the dining hall turned over in depression, thinking about a breakthrough.
In short, the breakthrough cannot be made within the Five Elements Sect area, after what he did.
I don’t know how many great powers are paying attention to this place. I believe that as long as there is any movement here, those great powers will pay attention.
With his current ability, it is not difficult to evade detection, but every time he makes a breakthrough, the movement is too loud, and even a fool can sense that something is wrong.
"You can't go to Tianhuoyuan either. If you are caught by Tianhuo Lieyang, it will be terrible.
Baizhang Temple is sparsely populated. I heard that it is the desert and next door, but there are so few people there that it easily attracts attention.
Then there is only the yin and yang realm. I have to go there after all. "
After thinking about it, Lin Qing's vision gradually blurred and she fell into a deep sleep.
Huo Luan, who was lying next to the clone, sat up suddenly and wanted to take this kid to have a midnight snack.
But when he saw that the boy had tilted his head and fell asleep, he couldn't help but feel slightly dazed.
This boy is the most special monk he has ever seen. Even though he is about to break through to become a god, he still goes to bed on time every night and never uses cultivation to replace sleep.
And she
After thinking about it, Huo Luan felt a little dazed. It seemed that he had not slept for thousands of years and had always spent his time practicing.
She had the urge to experience the feeling of sleeping again!
So the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and her eyes flickered with eagerness to try. She took out a magic weapon that concealed the breath and body shape, and first covered the two of them.
Then she slowly lay down, and the terrifying aura on her body slowly disappeared, becoming like Lin Qing now, like an ordinary person.
Soon, her breathing slowly slowed down, a smile appeared on her delicate face, and she fell into a deep sleep.
Half a month later, in the Yin and Yang Realm area, in the core area of Tianji Ancient City, huge teleportation towers stood. They connected the entire human race and could lead to the other four major sects.
And a teleportation array belonging to the Five Elements Sect suddenly lit up, revealing a figure inside.
The man looked young, looking like a young man. He was dressed in white clothes inlaid with cloud patterns, with a shining emerald green belt around his waist. His long hair was tied up randomly like a waterfall, which was quite free and easy.
Seeing him coming out, the eyes of several young people who had been waiting for him for a long time suddenly lit up. After getting the steward's permission, they rushed over.
Rushing to speak:
"Sir, do you still need a guide? I only need a spiritual stone."
"Sir, can you tell me what you are doing in Tianji Ancient City?"
"The villain Chen Da has lived in the city since childhood and can find all the locations you mentioned."
The man in white was obviously overwhelmed by the sudden noise. After frowning slightly, a trace of relief flashed across his face. He pointed at the young man named Chen Da and said gently:
"It's just you."
The young man immediately showed excitement and clenched his fists fiercely. The other young men were not depressed, but bowed with shining eyes, slowly retreated, and continued to wait for other guests to arrive.
Chen Da looked at the man in white excitedly, bowed first and said:
"Sir, my name is Chen Da. I have lived in Tianji Ancient City since I was a child. I am very familiar with the environment in the city. I can find any store you want for just one spiritual stone a day."
Chen Da's eyes flashed with expectation. He clasped his hands together and looked at the man in white with expectation.
The man in white nodded and casually threw out a bag.
Chen Da took the brocade bag. The heavy weight made him slightly stunned, but his joy quickly flashed away. But when he saw the spiritual stones in the brocade bag, he hesitated again.
Although this kit looks small, it has obviously been processed by skilled craftsmen. There is a one-foot-long and wide space inside which contains 11 yuan of spiritual stones.
This was obviously more than the price of his services, which made Chen Da's mind flash back to all the rumors he had heard before.
Some customers don't want to pay at all, and throw some spiritual stones out casually, which makes you ecstatic, but after completing the commission, they will be snatched back.
If you are lucky, you may still be alive, but if you are unlucky, you may never appear again.
This is the fate of the mortals in the ancient city of Tianji. Compared to the monks, they are too fragile. It may be just a casual attack that can kill them...
But when Chen Da thought of his younger brothers and sisters who were still huddled at home, without clothes to wear and unable to go out, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes! !
The teacher once said that wealth can be found in danger, so work hard!
But when he raised his head, he found that the man in white had disappeared. The courage he had just gathered suddenly dissipated, and a chill filled his heart.
Where are the guests? ?
He couldn't guarantee whether the adult would think that he had taken the spirit stone and ran away, and would give him a sword when he found him.
But he knew that if he couldn't find that adult, he might be in misery.
With his eyes flickering and looking at the intricate streets in front of him, Chen Da made a judgment. The first choice of the newly arrived monks was naturally to find a place to live, and the second choice was to go to Tianji Taoist Temple to seek a hexagram.
And these two places correspond to the street ahead.
Chen Da didn't hesitate, he took off and ran forward, passing through the crowded crowd, and kept saying sorry to the adults.
Finally, Huangtian paid off. In the middle of the street, he saw the man in white stopping by the candied haws beach, as if he was paying.
He immediately ran over, forced his rapid breathing to slow down, and said:
"Sir, the candied haws in Tianji Ancient City are made from honey from Tianhuoyuan. Only the honey there will not cover up its sweet and sour taste, so the adults who come here will choose to have a taste."
The man in white had a smile on his face, and he felt a little more favorable towards this young boy whose clothes had been washed away and looked very poor.
His intelligence should not only earn him a spiritual stone.
Looking at the bright red candied haws in front of him, the man in white sighed slightly.
No matter which world it is, it is the same. Too many people with intelligence are confined in a cage and cannot escape from it for life.
Maybe there is no chance to even learn how to read.
Seeing that the adult didn't seem to care, and was still smiling, Chen Da breathed out the breath he had been holding.
He needs this spiritual stone so much. If he wants to live in this ancient city of Tianji, he will have to spend a lot of money every year.
Although he is an aboriginal here and lives in his own ancestral house, although it has now been reduced to only one room, he still does not have to spend money.
But another expense made it difficult for him to afford it. It was because of this expense that his father went on a business trip with the caravan and died on the road.
This fee is called the deed fee, which is collected by the city lord's palace and used for the formation maintenance of Tianji Ancient City, as well as daily cleaning fees and safety fees.
For example, if he has younger brothers and sisters, they are a family of three. Each person has to pay one spiritual stone per month. The younger sister is too young, so she only needs to pay two spiritual stones.
Although he can earn one spirit stone every time he works, there are not many opportunities to find a job every month. He may only work ten days a month, which means he can earn ten spirit stones.
But these ten spirit stones must be shared equally with the stewards at the teleportation array. After all, if they disagree, Chen Da will lose his job.
In this way, their family of three can only have three spiritual stones left to spend each month.
Sometimes it will be even worse. After paying the contract fee, there may be only one spiritual stone left, or there may be none.
But fortunately, the deed fee is not free. There is a market specifically for mortals in the city. Although the vegetables there are not good-looking in person, they are still edible.
Moreover, even if you don't have money, you can still borrow money there first, as long as you pay it back in the future. As for the consequences of not paying it back, you will be kicked out of Tianji Ancient City and go to the attached city.
Therefore, the ten spiritual stones that the man in white gave him were already his monthly income in the past, which was very important to him.
It's only the beginning of the month. If I can entertain this gentleman well and successfully earn these ten spirit stones, then after working this month, I may have an income of 20 spirit stones.
By then I will be able to buy decent clothes for my younger brothers and sisters, and they will be able to go out.
You can also be like old man Chen on the street corner, pick up debris in the city and help the adults clean up. If you are lucky, you will be rewarded with one or two spiritual stones. Even if you are unlucky, you can still get a few meals. .
In this way, their family of three can have enough to eat. This is the happiest life that Chen Da has ever imagined.
The man in white took the twelve bunches of candied haws from the vendor.
"Sir, I have 12 yuan of spiritual stones. Just give me 11 yuan."
The man in white didn't care and still gave him 12 yuan. The middle-aged hawker thanked him profusely, sensing that he was a monk at the eighth or ninth level of Qi Refining.
Twelve bunches of candied haws were collected. Ten of them were for Er Yatou, and the remaining two bunches were for her.
While Lin Qing planned to taste it, he also wanted this poor young man to have a taste too.
But when he handed over the candied haws, he found that the young man named Chen Da was grinning silly, with a happy smile on his face.
kindness?What's going on?
"Boy, boy."
Chen Da was furious, his back was instantly soaked with cold sweat, panic flashed in his eyes, he was actually distracted.
His eyes condensed, and when he saw the red thing in front of him, he was startled again, thinking that he had been killed, so he sat down on the ground, covering his neck in pain, thinking about the good times in the past.
Lin Qing's expression became even weirder. What's wrong with this kid?
But soon, Chen Da realized that his neck was not injured, and the red thing was obviously candied haws!
But he didn't stand up either. Instead, he just turned from sitting to kneeling, kowtowing.
"Sir, please give me another chance. I'm thinking of my younger brothers and sisters who haven't had enough to eat at home. Please forgive me."
what?
I took a bite of the candied haws to cover up my surprise. It felt a little ridiculous, but it was understandable.
It seems that in this ancient city of Tianji, there is an insurmountable gap between monks and mortals, which is why this kid is so frightened.
Sighing and thinking about her current image, Lin Qing felt that she was kind enough, but unexpectedly, she still shocked this kid.
So he showed a kind smile and said:
"It's okay, get up quickly."
After hearing this, Chen Da felt weak and almost collapsed to the ground. He got up quickly after being saved.
Lin Qing bit the candied haws. It was indeed not as sour as expected, but only slightly sour and sweet.
He handed another candied haws to the young man.
"Come on, try it."
