Volume 1 The First Entry into the Troubled Times Chapter 16 Staying at the Ruyi Inn

Not long after the two entered the city, Qianqiu ran out of the sand on a knife, and finally he also saw the gate of Huanghu City, and began to walk slowly. After driving for a long time, one person and one horse of sand ate a lot.

"Knife, I suddenly remembered, why didn't you come to help me just now, and I watched the woman beat me crazy. Qianqiu suddenly remembered that when he was at the tea stall before, Xiaodao stood motionless and watched him fight with Bei Ling, so he asked.

The knife walked silently, seemingly unconcerned.

"Shouldn't you be a woman, don't fight, then I see that you are quite energetic when you beat Xiaocui?" Qianqiu began to tease his spirit beast while putting the burden into the Qiankun bag.

The knife actually shook his head at this time.

"I know! It must be because the vixen is not pretty!" Qianqiu said out loud deliberately, but then he thought of something, and muttered to himself: "That woman is masked, what if she is ugly?"

After hearing this, the knife seemed to be gone, and kept shaking its body and raising its back.

"Yo! It seems that you have a good impression of that crazy woman, you white-eyed horse, like Lao Wang, you can't walk when you see a beautiful woman, and your little friend was almost killed by her just now!" Qianqiu symbolically slapped the knife.

The sky began to slowly darken at this time, and before I knew it, Qianqiu had already rushed for a day, and it was very desolate along the way, and there was no one to sell food, and it was useless to carry a big bag of gold, and at this moment Qianqiu wanted to find a place to rest and eat something.

After walking forward for a while, Qianqiu and Xiaodao stood in front of the gate of the magnificent Huanghu City.

Huanghu City is a city in the center of the sand, there is almost no vegetation in a radius of fifty miles outside the city wall, a few hundred miles to the east is the largest city of the human race - the holy capital, and a hundred miles to the west is Qingshui County, a small county town from Qianqiu. Because there is no cultivation sect and no village around the sand, it sounds a little desolate, but in fact, Huanghu City is the fifth most prosperous city of the human race, and there is an endless stream of merchants coming and going, although the yellow sand is all over the city, but the city has different scenes throughout the year, only a wall apart, but the scene is completely different.

The reason why Huanghu City can still be so prosperous without taking advantage of the time and place is because of several places.

The first place is that Cai Ritian, the city lord of Huanghu City, is famous for his means, although he is only about forty years old, he can manage such a large city in an orderly manner, and his cultivation has reached the intermediate level of the wood magician, and more importantly, he has a fourth-level spirit beast.

The second place is that the imperial court Flying Tiger General Sun is stationed here, not far from the south of the city of Huanghu is the border wall, some small tribes often harass the inner border, the emperor sent the general Feihu to guard the Huanghu City, at any time to resist foreign enemies, an important military hub, not to prosper or not.

The third and most important place, the top master of Huanghu City, the junior fire magic master Li Yu, is in the city, and there are not many magicians who come to ask for advice, although there are also a considerable number of people who come to see Li Yu's sixth-level spirit beast, the Flame Bird, but few of them get what they want. As the so-called level separation is like a mountain, there is a high-level magician and a sixth-level spirit beast pressing the formation, even if there are a few intermediate magicians in Huanghu City, there is no need to worry too much. As the strongest master in Huanghu City, Li Yu rarely sees people, except for a few people, no one has ever seen her true face.

When I was in the mountains, Qianqiu heard the master say that the deserted Shanghai City was a bit interesting, the fish and dragons were mixed, everyone had it, and the scenery was strange and strange. But I've only heard of it and never seen it, and now it's the first time I've come to this special desert city, Qianqiu has some expectations, first, to find out the real culprit behind the incident in Qingshui County, and secondly, he also wants to see what the real masters look like and what tricks they can perform, and even more looking forward to seeing how strong their spirit beasts are!

The city gate is full of people coming and going, and it seems to be very lively.

Qianqiu, who had never seen a big city, looked at such a lively city gate, and couldn't help but sigh: "There is such a big formation at the city gate, it is really several gears higher than Qingshui County!"

In the city gate tower above Qianqiu, there were three people silently watching Qianqiu riding a bladed horse.

Two of them are Bei Ling, Hong Chao, and the other man is tall, more than nine feet, dressed in black, covering his face with a ghost mask, this person is the ghost head in Hong Chao's mouth.

"How could this stinky boy come to Deserted Shanghai City?" Be-Zero thought to himself at this time, "It's really ghostly." ”

The ghost head said: "Cai Ritian is going to the holy temple tonight for the heavenly sacrifice ceremony, when he leaves the house, don't let you go immediately, get the three-life three-leaf flower and leave the Huanghu City, and rush to the Oriental faction, you must consume the effect of the medicine on the road, and you don't have to worry about the rest." ”

"Ghost, do you want to go it alone?" asked Don't Zero coldly.

"The Red Super will buy time for you with me, this operation has been ordered by the Lord, you don't have to participate, your main task is to infiltrate the Eastern faction!" the ghost head said sharply.

"Don't zero, it's okay, I'll act with the ghost. Hongchao patted Bei Zero's shoulder and comforted.

"I heard you've had some trouble on the road, are you okay?" the ghost head asked as he looked at Bei Ling, who seemed to be a little restless.

Don't look at the ghost head: "I just met a few little thieves, so I don't need to be so concerned about the ghost head." ”

"Alright, let's get ready for action. After saying that, the ghost head jumped off the tower and disappeared into the crowd.

Qianqiu rode a knife into the city, the pride of the big city, the prosperity gushed out: the road is very spacious, the street is crowded with people, all kinds of shops, lined up in an orderly manner on the side of the street, there are stalls selling gadgets at the door of the shops, crowded with curious people, there are patrols on the street from time to time to catch fast passing, one by one is very handsome and energetic.

He glanced at a sign on the side of the road, and took a closer look, it turned out that today was the sixth day of the fifth month of the holy calendar, and the city of Huanghu would worship the sky according to the custom today, and the ceremony of sacrificing the sky would be held at night, no wonder it would be so lively, but now the top priority is to find a place to stay and eat something quickly.

Qianqiu would not be stupid enough to go directly to Sun's house, now he came to someone's territory with a mission, and he didn't dare to go easily if he didn't have a good understanding of the situation in Huanghu City. He dismounted, squeezed forward, and walked two streets, and came across a more imposing inn.

The plaque of the inn has four golden characters: Ruyi Inn.

"Ruyi Inn, it looks quite magnificent, anyway, now that we have money, then this is good. Chiaki touched the knife's head, and the knife immediately waved its ponytail in agreement.

"Guest officer, please come inside!" The shopkeeper who was standing at the door to solicit customers looked at the young man holding the horse at the door, and said please before Qianqiu could speak.

Qianqiu was stunned for a moment, and only after reading the name of the inn, the clever shopkeeper was already beckoning him to enter, and after hearing this, he could still automatically walk into the inn, thinking: "The habits of this world should be learned more." ”

"Little Er, the horse is for you, feed me good forage, I can't treat you badly. Chiaki handed the knife to Xiao Er.

"Childe, where are you, look at Childe, your extraordinary bearing is definitely not worse than two jujubes! Besides, your horse is a spirit beast at first glance, and I won't tell you that the small shop has food specially prepared for spirit beasts, and I guarantee that your partner will be served comfortably!" Xiao Er skillfully led the horse, handed it to the groom who watched the horse next to him, and explained, "The golden spirit beast - the blade horse!

Qianqiu thought to herself: "In the end, it's a big city, and even a shopkeeper is so knowledgeable." ”

"Guest officer, it's better to come early than to come at a good time. It's really time for you to come, only the last room is left in the shop, and the rest are relatively poor shops. Xiao Er led Qianqiu to the counter, ready to register briefly.

Qianqiu couldn't help but laugh and said, "Your inn business in Huanghu City is so good?"

Xiao Er replied with a smile: "It's not that the room has been full, it's not a ceremony to worship the heavens for a while, there are many people who come to do business, come to play, visit relatives, there are many more people, if you came here earlier, it is not free, there are just a guest who has withdrawn, and there is a vacancy." ”

"This brother, can you give me this upper room? There was a voice behind Chiaki.

Qianqiu looked back, and saw that it was a young man of his age who was talking, wearing a white robe, his hair tied in a neat bun, with a shallow smile on his delicate white face, a delicate black fish-shaped rag doll pinned to his waist, and a folding fan in his hand, and the whole person looked polite.

Qianqiu looked at the person who came, and couldn't help but sigh, this man is better looking than many women, and his cultivation seems to be similar to himself, he has the level of an intermediate magician, and his breath is purer than his own.

"This guest officer, this son has already paid for the store. "Xiao Er on the side has encountered a lot of this situation, and later wants to come first, in order to prevent contradictions, he is clever and often paves the way for the guests.

Chiaki shook her head, indicating that she didn't care about this.

The boy in white thought that Qianqiu shook his head and disagreed, and smiled and slowly added: "I am willing to pay you three times more store money, what do you think?"

Qianqiu thought about it and didn't care about the living environment when he slept in a thatched hut since he was a child, it seemed that people were so polite, he thought that he was still angry if he refused, so he wanted to promise him: "This brother, you speak politely, I like it." I'll let you in this upper room, and it's okay for me to live in a bunk. ”

"Thank you so much, shopkeeper, this time this brother is in your store's food and lodging on my head. ”

Qianqiu hurriedly said: "I'm not giving it to you for money, I just appreciate you as a person, don't be so polite." ”

The man in white replied: "Brother Tai is really polite, this is just a little bit of a heart." ”

The two chatted for a while, and suddenly felt very speculative.

At this moment, a voice came from behind him: "Shopkeeper! I'll pay six times the money for the room and give me the upper room." A person abruptly walked in, took some silver tickets in his hand, and slapped them on the counter.
