The first level of Shinto.

Ye Ling stood outside the City Lord's Mansion, dressed in a gorgeous costume, with a black crimson coat on his shoulders, his hands hugged, and shouted loudly, "Ye Ling, ask to see the City Lord." ”

The gate of the City Lord's Mansion exploded when he heard the sound, a red figure flashed, and the lion head of the Martial City Lord appeared in front of Ye Ling's eyes, Ye Ling looked at it lightly, the Martial City Lord was still cramped, standing in the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, stretching out his hand and hurriedly leading Ye Ling inside

。

"The city lord still can't let go. Ye Ling smiled.

"Night... Little brother, don't make fun of me. The Martial City Lord smiled bitterly.

Ye Ling entered the City Lord's Mansion, thought for a while, and said, "If the City Lord is not used to being called, then call Ye Ling the emperor like everyone else." ”

"Emperor?" the Martial City Lord frowned.

"My people are the emperor's family, and I am also the emperor's son, so they call me the emperor's son. Ye Ling said indifferently, "You can also call me that." ”

"Yes, Emperor. The Martial City Lord breathed a sigh of relief, it was true that this little brother of the night couldn't scream anymore, his heart couldn't stand it.

Ye Ling stood in the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion and looked around, sighed, walked to the seat, the purple light in his hand flashed, and a set of tea sets appeared on the table.

Ye Ling put away the big crush and motioned for the Martial City Lord to sit down, Ye Ling said while picking up the purple clay pot, "These are unique things to the human race, I brought them out from Emperor Xing, and I originally wanted to wait until my hometown had a thought."

A bowl, I came here today, first, I want to invite the city lord to taste it, and secondly, I have something to ask for. ”

The city lord sat on the opposite table from Ye Ling, looked at the tea set that Ye Ling took out, was slightly stunned, grabbed a small teacup by himself, and looked up and down, "Dare to ask the emperor, what is this?"

"Tea!" Ye Ling smiled lightly, took the carbon stove from his fingertips and lit it with a little fire, and placed the copper kettle on the stove, Ye Ling raised his hand to take countless water droplets falling into the copper kettle, "While it's time to boil water, I have something I want to ask the city lord."

。 ”

The martial city lord stared at the fire in the carbon furnace with a lion's head and a copper bell-like eyeball, and did not raise his head when he heard this, but said, "Emperor, please ask." ”

"Is there a great secret in the four cities of Shinto?" Ye Ling asked indifferently.

The Martial City Lord raised his head and looked at Ye Ling, his face full of astonishment, he was surprised why Ye Ling would ask such a mentally retarded question, and he couldn't say such a thing.

Ye Ling shook his head, "Listen to the fifth, the city lord won't say anything, and I won't embarrass you, the next question I ask, you just need to answer yes or no, if you still can't answer, I won't ask." ”

Just answer yes or no, the martial city lord thought about it, this is okay, "Emperor, please ask." ”

"The Four Castles of Shinto have a big secret?"

"Yes. ”

"This secret, or the treasure that should be hidden in it, shouldn't it be a real thing?"

"Emperor!" the Martial City Lord shouted.

Ye Ling waved his hand to signal the Martial City Lord not to shout, "When I first entered the Divine City, I stepped into a formation, and there was an old Taoist priest in it who calculated for me and said a lot. ”

Woowoo————

Ye Ling stretched out his hand to pick up the copper kettle, pressed one hand to extinguish the carbon fire, and rinsed the teapot and teacup with the water in the copper kettle, Ye Ling smiled, "I only know a little about the tea ceremony, the city lord doesn't laugh." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare. ”

"The old Taoist priest said that the four cities of Shinto have something that could heal my body, but what he said was the key. Yeling put the tea leaves into the purple clay pot and poured hot water into it.

"Plus the fifth, Brother Xuebai and a few of my friends, they have been in this first level for so long, but they haven't even caught a bit of treasure information, thinking of what the old Taoist priest said to me, I was thinking about this

The secret of the four Shinto cities is not an ethereal thing. Ye Ling poured out the tea and poured hot water into it again.

Ye Ling picked up the purple clay pot and poured the tea into two teacups, one cup was handed to the city lord, and the other cup was picked up by himself, "City lord, the secret of the four Shinto cities, or this key, it is not real, it is a no."

See something you can't touch?"

The Martial City Lord didn't touch the cup of tea, looked straight at Ye Ling, and asked rhetorically for a long time, "Who is the Taoist priest that the emperor met?"

"I don't know if he's from Shinto City, but one thing I'm sure of is that he's not from Shinto. Ye Ling took a sip of tea and said lightly.

The Martial City Lord looked at Ye Ling, as if he understood Ye Ling's words, he hesitated for a moment, grabbed the teacup and drank it all, "Emperor, there is no one in Shinto City who is not Shinto. ”

"That's why I'm here to ask you. Ye Ling looked at the Martial City Lord, "There is only one saint in the Divine Dao City, who is that old Taoist priest, doesn't even the city lord know?"

The Martial City Lord smiled bitterly, "Emperor Mingcha, there is indeed only one saint in Shinto City, but it is impossible for that saint to go to you. ”

Ye Ling smiled, "Originally, I didn't believe it, but now I do." ”

Ye Ling got up, and the Martial City Lord also hurriedly stood up. Ye Ling arched his hand, "The city lord won't send it." ”

Pointing to the tea set on the table, Ye Ling said, "These will be left to you as a souvenir, this purple clay pot, originally the monk drank tea, and there were more gold, stone and jade tea sets, and I prefer purple, so I have been using this purple clay pot, these are all."

It was given to the city lord, and there were three or five catties of tea, which were also given to you. ”

The martial city lord was flattered, and hurriedly bowed, "The emperor is kind, I couldn't solve the emperor's problem, and I accepted your gift, how is this-"

"You just take it. Ye Ling said, "In that case, I will bother the city lord to help me with something." ”

The Martial City Lord hesitated slightly, and his voice was weak, "Emperor, please speak." ”

"Don't worry, it's not your business. Ye Ling smiled, "When I first entered the city, Xuan Yuanyu gave me a lot of prohibitions, can you talk to him, can you relax a little, I want to be free." ”

The Martial City Lord patted his chest and replied, "This matter is no problem, as long as the emperor no longer asks about the affairs of the Divine City, everything is easy to say." ”

"I don't want to ask you, but time is too short. Ye Ling sighed, and said again, "City Lord, Ye Ling said goodbye." ”

The Martial City Lord looked at Ye Ling, who had already walked out of the City Lord's Mansion, and turned his head to look at the tea set, "Time..."

"An old Taoist priest who does not belong to Shinto. ”

"Emperor, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I really can't help you, everything in the Divine City depends on you. ”

The fifth nebula and Luo Xiaoxiao were playing in front of the mansion, the fifth nebula turned his head sideways and looked at the people who were walking here, Luo Xiaoxiao looked at the fifth brother who stopped moving, and also looked in that direction, clapped his hands and shouted happily, "It's long."

The good-looking night brother is back. ”

"You look good?" Fifth Nebula picked up Luo Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, do you say that I am good-looking, or is Brother Night good-looking?"

Luo Xiaoxiao looked at the face of the fifth nebula, and then turned his head to look at Ye Ling, who was walking slowly over in a big coat, without a little hesitation, "Brother Ye is good-looking!"

The fifth nebula pressed Luo Xiaoxiao's weight on his right arm, and stroked his hair with his left hand, revealing his forehead, and two thin short hairs scattered in front of his forehead, "What about now?

Luo Xiaoxiao showed a disgusted gaze, what is this person doing.

Fifth Nebula felt a pain in his chest, as if he had been punched by Ye Ling.

Ye Ling saw the Fifth Nebula and Luo Xiaoxiao from a long distance, and walked over quickly, wanting to reach out and pinch the little guy's face, who knew that the little guy stretched out his hand in the arms of the Fifth Nebula and wanted Ye Ling to hold it.

Ye Ling looked at the Fifth Nebula funny, feeling that his face was not good, Ye Ling stretched out his hand to take Luo Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, are you waiting for me here?"

"Hmm. Luo Xiaoxiao nodded.

The fifth nebula looked at Luo Xiaoxiao resentfully, "Xiaoxiao, don't you want to be held by me so much?"

"No, it's not. It's just that Brother Night is also there. Luo Xiaoxiao said crisply, "However, I don't want Brother Xue to hug me." ”

The fifth nebula is cloudy and clear.

Ye Ling was curious, pinched the tip of the little guy's nose, and walked into Luo's mansion, "Why don't you want Brother Xuebai to hug you?"

The little guy was very distressed and said, "Brother Xue's face is too white and beautiful, I don't want to be by his side." ”

"Hahaha-" Yeling laughed.

The fifth nebula also smiled, especially after watching Xue Minghan, who looked confused, come out of the West Chamber, and laughed even more happily.

Xue Minghan raised his eyebrows, "What's the matter, is there anything that makes you so happy?"

"Yes, yes, but ......" Ye Ling looked at the little guy in his arms and put his finger against his lips, shh-

Ye Ling smiled and put his finger to his lips, shh-

"Oh, yes. Fifth Xingyun coughed, "Ye Ling, you went to the City Lord's Mansion, but what did you find, did the City Lord say any clues?"

Yeling shook his head, "He didn't say anything. ”

Xue Minghan said, "Sure enough. ”

"Still, I'm sure of something. Ye Ling Zhengse said, "The key contained in the four cities of Shinto should be some kind of exercise, or holy art, or the perception of the sages. ”

"Key?" Xue Minghan frowned.

That's an apt word. The Fifth Nebula laughed, "But how should we go about finding it?"

Ye Ling thought for a moment, "Outside this Divine City, there is no place with a special environment, such as not being able to urge divine power, imprison the Dao, restrict the Yuan Divine Spirit, and so on?"

What he said were all special rules he had seen on the Emperor Star, and since this Divine City was made by the Night Emperor, there must be similarities.

Fifth Nebula looked at Xue Minghan, to be honest, he has been having fun almost in the past few years, and he has been mixed up with the secrets of the Divine City, after all, he is responsible for the logistics of this group of white food, and it is impossible to follow it in real time

They go to explore.

Xue Minghan said, "What Yeling said, I only remember that valley. ”

Fifth Nebula was stunned, "Which one?" Looking at Xue Minghan's expression, Fifth Nebula suddenly realized, "Is that the one you once said?"

Xue Minghan glanced at Ye Ling, "Are you sure there will be anything?"

Ye Ling watched the two of them play dumb riddles for some reason, patted the little guy on the back, and made sure that Luo Xiaoxiao was asleep, Ye Ling handed her over to the servants of Luo's mansion, and then turned back and listened to the conversation between the two.

"That place, no...," Fifth Nebula thought for a moment, "We'll talk about it when Qinghao and Baili come back in the evening." ”

Xue Minghan nodded, "It's okay, Bai Lijie is the most familiar with it." ”

Ye Ling smiled slightly, "Where did Brother Donkey go?"

"That donkey?" Xue Minghan's face was a little unpleasant, and the fifth nebula had a playful look in his eyes, "That donkey is a genius, you ran out not long after you left, and you don't know what to do." ”

Ye Ling sat on the stone chair in the west garden, took another set of tea utensils and began to make tea, he brought a lot when he left the emperor star, just now he made a pot of tea in order to get some words from the city lord, and suddenly felt calm when he made tea

Many, back here, he started boiling water to make tea again, and he was enjoying the process.

Fifth Nebula and Xue Minghan glanced at each other, they had all been to the Emperor Star to know what it was, but after leaving the Emperor Star, they never had a chance to taste it.

"Brother Night has Yaxing, and I am also with him. Fifth Nebula sat down with a grin.

Xue Minghan sat down silently, he likes elegant things very much, which is very similar to his temperament.

"I don't know anything about making tea, but Uncle Wu likes this kind of blend, and I like it too, so she forced me to learn it. Ye Ling sighed, learning this thing is really a history of blood and tears, and Uncle Wu has carried it several times

Ears roared, he didn't want to learn, but an apprentice always whispered in his ear, you can't practice, just do something else to pass the time, learn the tea ceremony and cultivate your self-cultivation.

"Do you have apprentices?" Fifth Nebula cried out in a lost voice, and Xue Minghan also looked at Ye Ling with interest.

"Well, even if it is a subsidiary family of the imperial family, there has been a big change, and I accept her as a disciple, and it is not without a sense of making up for it. Ye Ling said, "After thinking about it, it seems that she didn't teach her anything, and several of my teachers and uncles are taking care of her."

, and then threw her to the Northern Ice Field, and now I'm gone, just in the name of a master and apprentice. ”

Ye Ling had some feelings, he really didn't teach anything to the tree, the little girl brewed a few jars of wine for him every year, this time he came to the Divine City, and he also brought more than a dozen altars of wine made by the apprentices, which was forced to take by the tree

。

"Isn't Yeling not yet a hundred years old?" Xue Minghan glanced at the Fifth Nebula.

Ye Ling picked up the copper kettle and nodded, "It's true that I'm less than a hundred years old, and I'm only fifty years old." ”

Xue Minghan shook his head and said, "Ye Ling, you have such strength at fifty years, wouldn't you be invincible in the Divine Dao for fifty years?"

Ye Ling was stunned for a moment, and snorted with a wry smile.

Fifth Xingyun smiled, "Ye Ling is a person in the world, unlike you and me, who are thousands of years old monsters. ”

Ye Ling poured the tea into the teapot, and after a while, the fragrance of tea came out, Ye Ling raised his head, "You two may be sanctified?"

"After a hundred years, it's okay, but the two of us don't want to be sanctified, this divine city has come, and I'm not willing to get anything. Fifth Xingyun smiled, his face was as usual, he was such a free and easy person.

Xue Minghan said, "We are still fine, and we are old enough, but it is not right to spend time here, I have been here for seven years, and in another three years, whether it is successful or not, I will leave the Divine City and become holy!"

The tea water is light yellow and clear, and the tea leaves float under the water like a sword, and the fifth nebula looks at it curiously.

Ye Ling pushed two cups of tea to the two, "Please use it!"

The fifth nebula took it first, took a sip, tasted it, took another sip, and motioned to Yeling to pour another cup, which was like a cow chewing a peony.

Xue Minghan's demeanor was pleasant, and he picked up the teacup lightly, the teacup touched his lips, and a little tea flowed in, "The tea is fragrant and fresh, good." ”

Ye Ling smiled, he was very satisfied with the reaction of the two of them. His apprentice will only say that he is not as good as Uncle Wu.

Hmph –

Ye Ling pinched the teacup and tasted it, the tea was fresh, the taste was sweet, but there was a touch of sweetness and bitterness.

The atrium was noisy with a few greetings.

Ye Ling smiled, "The donkey is back. ”

"It's all back. Fifth Nebula said.

As soon as the words fell, Bai Lijie, Long Qinghao, and the donkey broke into the west courtyard together.

"Baili, Qinghao, you came back just in time. "Fifth Nebula has brought tea to the two of them," Yeling wanted to know about the situation in Seiya. ”

"Shiya?"

Bai Lijie and Long Qinghao frowned, what did they find?
