Chapter 459: Tongyuan
As Xuanyuan Feng's spell was lifted, his sanity returned to normal, and the tense situation in Ming City also disappeared, and Murong Ling'er, who had been trying to avoid arrest, naturally returned to Qunfangfang from Baifu, and everything seemed to be back on track. It's just that Yi Qingfeng was a little unhappy in his heart, you must know that the purpose of his nether realm is to catch the criminals who escaped from the divine domain, and now the criminals are likely to be the demons of Wu Yan, Tong Shun, and Lei Gu, their strength is unfathomable, and it is difficult to defeat them with Yi Qingfeng's current strength, which makes Yi Qingfeng feel a little uncomfortable in his heart.
On this day, Yi Qingfeng was alone in front of the house, thinking about where to improve his strength, and suddenly Baiyunfeng's voice came from his ears: "Qingfeng, why are you stunned, with a worried look?"
Yi Qingfeng said: "It's nothing, I just think it's time to spend some time cultivating martial arts, it's okay to stay in the city these days, I plan to go to the suburban cottage to retreat and cultivate." ”
Bai Yunfeng said: "What's the hurry, your current strength can be regarded as outstanding in Mingcheng, why are you in such a hurry to cultivate, if it is me, I am not in a hurry, how happy is it to wander around every day, why don't we go to Qunfangfang today?"
Yi Qingfeng secretly said in his heart: "You, who lack heart, don't even know your own mission, you know how to wander around happily, why did the Qiling Immortal let me remember the task of the nether realm alone." ”
Seeing that Yi Qingfeng didn't speak, Bai Yunfeng said: "What's the matter, I'm stunned again, can't I go up to Qunfangfang?"
Yi Qingfeng said: "No, let's go to the suburban cottage, Jia Lei and Kefei have been stepping up their practice recently, I heard that the progress of the skill is rapid, we can't lag behind, right?"
Bai Yunfeng said: "You open your mouth and practice and close your mouth to practice, what do you want to practice yourself?"
Yi Qingfeng said: "Don't forget, the Rat King said before that the King of Ten Thousand Spirits may find us, and it is easy to defeat us with the strength of the King of All Souls, we have to work hard to improve our strength, otherwise it will be difficult to survive at that time." ”
Bai Yunfeng said: "You take the words of the Rat King too seriously, you don't know where the King of All Spirits is, you don't know whether you are dead or alive, you can find us anywhere." Don't talk about it, let's go find Jingyang and see what he says. As he spoke, he picked up Yi Qingfeng and went out.
Bai Yunfeng and Yi Qingfeng went out, and on the way, they learned from their subordinates that Jingyang had just gone outside the mansion, Bai Yunfeng said: "Good Jingyang, I can't see anyone in the mansion these days, and I don't know where to go to go here, let's hurry up and see what kind of reputation he is doing." Saying that, he and Yi Qingfeng hurried towards the door of the mansion.
The two of them were looking for Jingyang's figure on the street outside the house, the street was full of traffic and people, it was not easy to find a person, the two looked left and right, and suddenly Yi Qingfeng saw that a person standing next to the steamed bun shop in the distance was Jingyang, and he was busy saying to Bai Yunfeng beside him: "Jingyang is in front of the steamed bun shop." ”
The two walked forward quickly, and Bai Yunfeng said: "Okay, Jingyang, I secretly ran here to buy steamed buns to eat, and I didn't call me and Qingfeng." ”
Jingyang said: "Why are you two going out, I was about to buy a few steamed buns and go back for you to eat." ”
Bai Yunfeng said: "We are here to find you, it is difficult to see your figure these days, and I honestly explain where I am." ”
Jingyang said: "It's not a fool, the day before yesterday, I went around the "Tongyuan" in the north of the city with the little guy in the house, there are a lot of things there, and I went shopping for the past two days." ”
Bai Yunfeng said: "It turns out that you went to Tongyuan, the things there are all related to gambling, and the characters who come in and out are also mixed with three religions and nine streams, it is said that there are often conflicts because of gambling funds, it can be said that it is a place of right and wrong, why did you go there?"
Jingyang said with a smile: "It's said that small gambling is pleasant, I don't have much sitting, I stay in the house all day and am bored, it's better to spend a few small dollars to go there and go around, this will be just right for you, why don't you go around together?"
Bai Yunfeng said: "Just now I was discussing with Qingfeng whether to go to Qunfangfang, since you said that you would go to Tongyuan, then let's go there, what do you think of Qingfeng?"
Yi Qingfeng said: "You can go wherever you want, I have no opinion anyway." ”
Seeing Yi Qingfeng's depressed look, Jingyang said: "Qingfeng, why don't you have a smile on your face, how boring it is to put on a bitter gourd face all day long, who is upsetting you?"
Bai Yunfeng said: "Where is someone upsetting him, he can't get along with himself, he said early in the morning that he wanted to go to the cottage to retreat and practice, and said that the King of All Souls would come to the door, we have to hurry up to practice to improve our strength, so as not to suffer a loss." ”
Jingyang said: "You are really asking for trouble, the King of All Souls is all a shadowless thing, what kind of urgency are you, let's have fun for a few more days, improving our strength is not a matter of one or two days, let's talk about it in a few days." Come and eat a bun, don't be bitter, I don't feel comfortable looking at it. As he spoke, he handed the bun over.
Yi Qingfeng took over and said, "Okay, I'll have fun with you today." ”
Jingyang said: "That's right, put aside all the troubles, let's have fun." Saying that, he and Yi Qingfeng and Baiyunfeng walked quickly towards the north of the city.
The three of them traveled all the way, walked forward for about half an hour and finally arrived at Tongyuan, here is a place that covers a wide area, all kinds of gambling skills are available, in addition to the common pai gow, dice, etc., there are also uncommon archery, horse racing, cockfighting, fighting crickets and other gambling skills, because of the wide variety of naturally attracted many gamblers to this pastime, as Bai Yunfeng said, it is really a mixture of three religions and nine streams.
Jingyang, Bai Yunfeng, and Yi Qingfeng were wandering around the venue at random, and the three of them all had some spare money on hand, and now they would inevitably want to give it a try when they are in such a place. The first thing the three of them fell in love with was archery, after all, as a martial artist is very familiar with archery, the gameplay of this level is also very simple, the cost of each arrow is at least one or two silver, as long as you can shoot the bullseye fifty meters away, you can get five times the reward, of course, you can also increase the bet, up to five taels of bets for the most arrow, if you hit the bull's-eye, you will get twenty-five taels of silver in return.
If you want to hit the bullseye from 50 meters away, even the top shooters can't guarantee that the bullet will not miss, so naturally there is some element of luck. Jingyang, Yi Qingfeng, and Bai Yunfeng were eager to try, and the three of them each selected ten arrows, of which Jingyang's eight arrows were one or two black arrows, and the other two were five taels of red arrows, Bai Yunfeng also selected eight black arrows and two red arrows, and Jingyang picked nine black arrows and a three taels of green arrows.
Seeing that Jingyang was playing a little smaller, Bai Yunfeng joked to him: "What's the matter, you are so unconfident in your archery skills?"
Jingyang said: "I'm different from the two of you, this is the first time you two have come back, I don't know the depth here, I advise you two, it's not easy to make money, don't spend it indiscriminately." ”
Bai Yunfeng snorted coldly: "You see, see how I earn back the money I spent." As he spoke, he stretched his bow and prepared to shoot, he pulled the bow full, and the arrow aimed at the red bullseye in the distance, and with the sharp arrow in his hand roaring out, the sharp arrow that seemed to be aimed very accurately did not even hit the target, let alone hit the bull's-eye.
This result was obviously much beyond Bai Yunfeng's expectations, and he was shocked and said, "It's not so outrageous, didn't you even hit the target?"
Jingyang on the side said: "What am I talking about, this thing is not that simple, the money you spent today should be regarded as paying the tuition." ”
Bai Yunfeng said: "Close your crow's mouth, it only cost one or two silver, and the remaining arrows must be able to hit the bull's-eye." ”
Jingyang said: "Let's see, it's useless to say it, if you can really hit the bull's-eye, it's a real skill." ”
In the next time, Bai Yunfeng shot all the remaining nine arrows, but the result was a big disappointment, only one of the nine arrows hit the bull's-eye, but it was not a red arrow that bet five taels, so he spent eighteen taels of silver, and finally only got a return of five taels, and lost thirteen taels of silver.
Although he was a little unhappy about losing the silver, fortunately, Bai Yunfeng didn't care very much, but he just smiled.
After that, Jingyang and Yi Qingfeng also made their own shots, both of them were unlucky, each only one arrow hit the bull's-eye, and the silver was naturally lost, and the two of them didn't care too much either.
After playing archery, the three of them moved on to other things, and since they couldn't make any use of archery, they thought they might be able to run it somewhere else.
