Chapter 22: Arriving at Tiannan City

It took fifteen days on the road, and the three of them finally saw the city wall of Tiannan City, which looked so tall and wide, Yang Xin'an felt that the city wall must be nearly 100 meters high!

The length of the two sides of the city wall is not visible at a glance, and the city wall is not traditional boxy, but in an arc shape, and it is estimated that many gates will be opened.

Yang Xin'an and the three of them turned from the trail to the avenue in the mountains and forests, and along the way they could see many houses where only a few families lived, and these houses were surrounded by fertile fields.

This was the first time the trio had seen a village without walls or fences, even though it looked small from a distance.

It took half an hour from seeing the city wall to walking to the city gate, and when they arrived at the city gate, Yang Xin'an and the three of them were stopped, and they had to pay the city fee, fifty copper for each of the three people, and ten silver for the entry and exit of the carriage and horse, Yang Xiaoxin paid the money very neatly, after all, it was obtained by touching the corpse, and now the assets of the brother and sister have shrunk a lot.

The soldiers guarding the gate simply looked at the car to see if there were Tibetans in the car and let them go, and the three of them walked through the city gate hole that was 20 meters wide, 20 meters high, and 30 meters deep, Yang Xin'an felt that this city gate was tall and domineering.

After entering the city, I was shocked, the big street with a width of more than 30 zhang, on both sides are buildings of different styles, each one is so unique, each one occupies hundreds of meters of the gate surface, each one is as high as seven or eight floors, it is expected that the township building hotel, the auction house, the weapons and equipment shop, the clothing store, the pharmaceutical association, the carriage and horse shop, the martial arts association, the jewelry store, the inscription association, etc.

Looking ahead, there is a large square there, and there is a huge tower with a height of 100 meters erected in the middle, looking into the distance, it seems that there will be such a tower every few miles, just look at the above a few giant crossbows to know that this is used for air defense, I have seen it in Tiger City, but I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, and I was introduced by Lou Erhu with a brush.

At this time, a group of teenage children surrounded them and shouted: "Little brother, do you need a guide? I am a city passer, and there is no place in Tiannan City that I can't find." ”

There were many people, and Yang Xin'an and the three of them could barely hear what they were saying.

Yang Xiaoxin replied: "Do you think we look like people who have the money to hire a guide?"

After speaking, he pointed to the sackcloth on his body.

The group of children was stunned for a moment, and soon turned around and ran to the next person who entered the city to sell themselves, Yang Xin'an thought that there would be a child who had a tragic experience, was destitute, and urgently needed some food to stay! Unfortunately, it was just a fantasy.

The three of them walked for a while, only to find a relatively cheap restaurant to live in a place on the back street, the preliminary estimate is that their money is only enough to stay for one night and then it is gone, the three of them have to spend ten silver dollars to eat and live in a day, and they now have a total of more than 20 silver coins, according to one hundred copper coins for one silver coin, ten silver coins for one gold coin, calculated that they have to spend a thousand copper coins a day!

After a brief dinner, the three of them began to go shopping, looking at the lively streets, neat shops on both sides, rows of three- or four-story houses, people coming and going in and out of taverns, grocery stores, and various snack streets, which made the three people who had been sleeping in the wild feel popular.

Stop and stop along the way, looking for a suitable place to sell the bottles.

They had seen the pawnshop, but after thinking about it, they didn't go in, and the siblings finally decided to go to the auction house first.

Walking into the hall of Tenglong Auction House, I felt what is gorgeous, exquisite carved dragon paintings and phoenixes linger around the whole hall, the satin cloth curtain embroidered with exquisite patterns is the most suitable embellishment, and the jade utensils are decorated in every dim corner to release a faint light.

The three of them didn't come to see these things, Yang Xin'an looked around and walked to a windowsill, on which a sign was hung that said "Small Object Appraisal Acquisition Window".

Yang Xin'an looked inside, and there was a young man about thirty years old with two mustaches sitting inside, and when he saw Yang Xin'an and the three of them looking inside, he asked, "Xiaoyou, do you have anything to identify or sell?" or if you want to appraise, come, come in and say." ”

Yang Xin'an took out the plastic bottle and handed it over, and asked, "Sir, look at how much this jade bottle is worth?"

The young man took it, held it in his hand, and after looking at it over and over again, he handed the bottle back and said, "This jade bottle is pure and clear in color, it is very good, but unfortunately it is not of great use to cultivators, and its value is greatly reduced, and the estimated price of one hundred gold coins is quite a good price." ”

Yang Xin'an thought for a moment and continued, "Useful for cultivators? This bottle can keep the medicinal properties of the cultivation elixir from being lost, is it useful for cultivators?"

The young man's eyes suddenly widened a lot, and he looked straight at Yang Xin'an and said: "Xiaoyou is not fooling me, such a bottle is not a precious material engraved with inscriptions to have this effect, if this bottle that has not undergone any treatment is really as Xiaoyou said, it is also a treasure, and ten thousand gold is also worth it." ”

After seeing Yang Xin'an nodding, he said again: "Xiaoyou will follow me to the back hall to see my teacher, he should have a way to identify." ”

After speaking, he pulled Yang Xinan to the back hall.

Before walking into the back hall, Yang Xin'an asked the young man's name: "Dare to ask Mr. 's name." ”

The young man replied very simply: "Under Fan Qingyang, Xiaoyou can call me Mr. Fan." ”

Passing through a corridor and two inner rooms, Fan Qingyang took Yang Xin'an and the three of them to a hall, and saw a middle-aged man who was reading the illustrated book, Fan Qingyang bowed and saluted: "Teacher, the disciple has just encountered an object, and I don't know how to identify its function. ”

Yang Xin'an and the three of them also saluted, and the middle-aged man listened to the disciple before saying, "Oh! Take out the thing and take a look, talk about what it does." ”

Yang Xin'an replied respectfully: "It is a function that can maintain the effectiveness of the cultivation elixir without losing it. ”

After taking the bottle, the middle-aged man looked at it carefully, and said, "There is no carving, and there are no traces of inscriptions, strange!"

After speaking, the middle-aged man gathered a ball of vitality in his hand and poured it into the bottle, screwed on the lid and closed his eyes for a while before saying: "But it has its effect, and it is very good, it is worth ten green yuan stones." ”

Fan Qingyang bowed again and saluted: "Teacher Xie solves his doubts, Qingyang will retire first." ”

Seeing that the middle-aged man waved his hand, Fan Qingyang saluted again before taking Yang Xin'an and the three back to the front hall and said, "Xiaoyou is willing to sell this jade bottle." ”

can be traded with yuan stones, and one bottle can be exchanged for ten yuan, Yang Xin'an naturally has no reason not to sell it, but asked: "Mr. Fan, what is Qingyuan stone." ”

Fan Qingyang smiled and said: "Yuanshi is also divided into grades, and this grade is determined by color, the most white is used to cultivate chicken ribs, and it is the best to use it to impact the bottleneck and provide vitality after being crushed." ”

"The second-rank cyan can increase its cultivation speed by two times, and its vitality content is ten times that of white. ”

"The third-grade blue can increase the cultivation speed by three times, and its vitality content is a hundred times that of white. ”

"The fourth-rank red increases the cultivation speed by four times, the fifth-rank purple increases the cultivation speed by five times, and then there is the Yuan Core that increases the cultivation speed by ten times, which I have only heard of but have never seen. ”

Although Yang Xin'an wanted all the Yuan Stones, he was still short of money, so he asked embarrassedly: "Mr. Fan, can I exchange nine Qingyuan Stones and one thousand gold coins." ”

Fan Qingyang laughed and said: "You really want to change it like this, do you know that a Qingyuan stone is worth ten thousand gold." ”

Seeing Yang Xin'an's sudden embarrassment, Fan Qingyang directly arranged for the little guy to get the yuan stone and gold coins, and the little guy went for a while and brought a tray and put it on the table in front of Fan Qingyang, only to see that there were nine cyan two-inch square stones, nine white two-inch stones, nine white jade coins of less than two inches and a small bag of gold coins.

Fan Qingyang pushed the tray in front of Yang Xin'an and said: "Little friend, you order, these are nine green yuan stones, nine white yuan stones, nine yuan coins, and one hundred gold coins. ”

Yang Xin'an listened to a burst of gratitude, thanked him repeatedly, praised Mr. Fan's thoughtful arrangement, and after a few more chats, he bowed and left with the two daughters.
