Chapter 1128: Kindness
Mashou City, the only big city in the Mashou Plain, is less than 100 miles away from Cangming Temple. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The Mashou City, which took many years to build by the major tribes, is actually an earthen city, the walls are no more than three zhang high, and they are all made of mud, so it is difficult to have other defensive capabilities in addition to being able to resist wind and rain.
The shepherds did not like to live in the city, and the climate of the Mashou Plain was excellent, and there was rarely heavy snow that could freeze people to death, so the only purpose of the establishment of Mashou City was to trade.
From the trade between tribes, to the trade between countries, until the emergence of the Workshop City, Mashou City has truly become a trade mecca within a million miles.
The exterior of Mashou City is old, but it is divided into an inner city and an outer city.
The outer city is a place of trade for major tribes, inhabited by many traders from other countries, many years of multiplication, the local residents of Mashou City are now as many as millions, the outer city has expanded again and again, and the streets and alleys are not like the original mud houses, now they are all blue bricks and white tiles, and they look quite tidy.
The outer city resembles a normal town, while the inner city is resplendent with gold.
Not only are the bricks paved, the buildings are innumerable, but there are also huge inns like palaces, and the streets are not horses, but a kind of double-headed camels, which stride extremely fast.
Although the inner city is magnificent, it is much more neat and luxurious than the outer city, but there are few mortals among them, and if there are, there are also some good-looking mortal women who are responsible for attracting customers in the major stores.
The inner city of Mashou City is called the inner city in the hearts of mortals, and in fact there is another name, it is called Mashoufang City, which can be called one of the largest trading markets within a radius of one million miles.
At the east gate of the outer city, Xu Yan, who was dressed in a Taoist robe, had just arrived outside the city.
Walking through the city gate, raise your eyes to see a prosperous scene, buying and selling merchants everywhere, inns and restaurants are innumerable, calling for buying and selling endlessly, and beggars asking for food are non-stop.
This is the mortal world, a place where fish and dragons are mixed.
"Master Dao, okay, okay, okay! I haven't eaten for half a month. ”
On the side of the street, half-grown children dragged lame legs, ragged and lifted dirty broken bowls above their heads, begging the dusty but delicate-eyed Taoist family.
"It's hard for you, you didn't starve to death if you didn't eat for half a month, take it. ”
Raising his hand and throwing out a large piece of gold, Xu Yan smiled slightly, since he lacks good thoughts, then make up for it, life is in heaven and earth, how can there be only evil and no good?
"This is ......" The beggar looked at the gold in the broken bowl with blank eyes, suddenly grabbed it and bit it with his teeth, and shouted in great surprise: "Gold!"
Sou......
The lame beggar turned his head, walked like a fly, and quickly disappeared into the crowd, leaving only a broken bowl under Xu Yan's feet.
"Isn't it gold, you have to be generous to do good deeds, and from today onwards, I want to do good deeds to the world!"
I don't care about being deceived by someone with a lame leg, I don't care about throwing a lot of money at beggars, since I decided to refine my body in the geocentric fire of Cangming Temple, I must be ready to be burned by the geocentric fire, so Xu Yan is trying his best to find his own goodness, he needs this good thought, so that he can display the miraculous skills that the old Taoist priest taught to Yantongtian, good as water.
The magic power of the flesh and bones of the living dead, as long as you can master it, let alone the spirit fire in the center of the earth, even if you jump into the center of the earth, Xu Yan is not afraid.
Yes!!
Just as Xu Yan was trying to feel the kindness brought by almsgiving, there was a scream from the street in the distance, and people hulala surrounded him.
Curious, Xu Yan separated the crowd, so he saw the little beggar lying in a pool of blood, the gold was gone, and there was an extra knife in his heart, and he couldn't live.
Hiss......
Xu Yan gasped, said a word of mercy, shook his head, and left the scene of the murder.
A piece of gold, he was generous, and directly killed one, not to mention good thoughts, evil thoughts gathered a few more points.
"It's bad luck to do good deeds, but what is missing is not good thoughts, but luck?"
Xu Yan began to be confused, sighed and shook his head, glanced at the direction of the inner city, and strode away.
Before entering the city, he had already inquired about it in the Junhe tribe, so the inner city of Mashou City was Xu Yan's destination.
Xu Yan's preparation is to rest in Mashoufang City, inquire about some news, and then rush to Cangming Temple, the news of the birth of Cangming Temple relics does not know how many strongmen have attracted, in order not to get into trouble, it is the key to listen to the recent situation of Cangming Temple in advance.
Just walked into Mashou City, and before Xu Yan walked to the inner city, a young man appeared in front of him.
This time it was a girl, sixteen or seventeen years old, not tall, with short shoulder-length hair, plain clothes, a little thin face, and big eyes that looked very shrewd.
"Dao, Dao, Dao, Daoist friends stay!" The girl blocked the way, clasped her fists and saluted, looking very old-fashioned, by no means the beggars who died in vain before, and there were aura fluctuations on her body, but there was a stuttering problem.
"Pavilion, pavilion, pavilion, what do you mean?" Xu Yan was slightly stunned, nodded and returned the salute, I don't know why he asked, he didn't know the girl in front of him, and he didn't know why the other party blocked the way.
"You, you, you, don't learn from me!" The girl was stunned when she heard Xu Yan's tone, and then became a little annoyed.
"I, I, I, that's it. Xu Yan sank his face, as if he was being looked down upon by others for his flaws.
"Really, you, you stutter too?" the girl looked curious, for the first time she had seen a monk stutter as much as she did.
Xu Yan didn't speak, but had a cold face.
"I, my name is Qianqian, and the name of the Taoist friend is the great name?" As if she had found the same kind, the girl named Qianqian was overjoyed.
didn't say the name, Xu Yan said with a calm face: "What are you doing to stop me in my way." ”
"I, I want to find a Taoist friend to exchange something, just, this is it. The girl looked left and right, pulled Xu Yan to the no-man's land at the entrance of the alley, and took out a green fruit from her arms.
"This fruit was dropped by a golden-robed monk, I don't know what it is for, I picked it up, I want to exchange it for some spirit stones, Taoist friends only need to give me two hundred spirit stones, and the fruit belongs to you, what do you think?"
The girl named Qianqian had the aura fluctuations of the early stage of foundation building, which Xu Yan could tell at a glance, but what made him strange was that once the girl in front of him mentioned the transaction, her speech was actually very flexible.
"You don't stutter?" Xu Yan asked, puzzled.
"As long as it involves spirit stones, buying and selling, and money, my stutter will be cured without medicine. The name stared at the big bright eyes and said expectantly.
"You fruit...... Steal it. ”
Xu Yan said helplessly: "Me too, once it comes to the spirit stone, not only do I not stutter, but my brain is also very bright, I won't be easily fooled, little girl, let's play at the same time, it's not easy to be a liar, I'm kind today, I won't pursue it with you, if the black goods are not good, teach you a way, find a black market or look at a more stupid monk." ”
"I'm afraid of being discovered, that's good, a hundred, a hundred spirit stones, the fruit is yours!" The girl was a little anxious, and when she heard a hundred spirit stones, Xu Yan looked at the green fruit again, and her expression was a little hesitant.
As soon as she saw the other party's expression change, the girl named Qianqian immediately became happy, but on the surface, she still looked scared, for fear of being discovered.
