Chapter 21: The Strange City Lord
The dense fog dissipated, and Xue Fang, who appeared in front of Qianxun, became extremely young at this time, and his temperament was as bright and moving as a fairy descending to earth.
Qianxun exclaimed cautiously tentatively.
"Madame Pang, is that you?"
Xue Fang listened to the sound and looked at Qianxun, only to see that her dark eyes looked extremely cold and ruthless, and her ice-deep pupils turned to look at the roof.
Following his gaze, Qianxun couldn't help but look at the roof, and across the roof, Qianxun saw two amazing golden light numbers.
Xue Fang's figure directly turned into a streamer that penetrated the house and appeared in the sky outside the house.
"Mother!"
"Madame!"
Everyone outside the house looked up at Xue Fang in the sky, and the night sky at this time was extremely weird, and two white clouds appeared in the sky above. Xue Fang stood in the void between the two clouds at this time, and she looked at one of the clouds with an icy expression.
Only then did the two clouds slowly open, revealing two figures.
In the clouds, a man in a white armor suit, holding a spear, with a serious and cold expression, performed his duties like a machine and said.
"Winter Lotus Fairy, the way of heaven has not returned, but you wake up, the days are lawful, you should sleep. ”
"Follow the laws of heaven, and after three days, this monarch will enter reincarnation. ”
Xue Fang, who was standing in the air, did not change his expression at all, and bluntly faced the man with a gun in the clouds.
"Presumptuous!"
The sound of immortals was mighty, and the angry rebuke of the man with the gun directly shook the entire city, but the city was extremely quiet, and there was no panic at all.
It turned out that before this, the spiritual liquid that fell from the air dripped onto the mortals, although it improved the mortals' bodies, but it should also be too rich in spiritual power, so that all the mortals in the city fell into a coma, only those monks did not dare to breathe at this time and hid in the city looking at the three immortals in the sky.
Xue Fang replied indifferently at this time.
"Dare to ask the immortals, there is a law in the number of days, why isn't Benjun following its law?"
The man in the cloud was silent, and after thinking for a while, he shouted in a strict voice.
"Tianbei Xingjun listens to orders!"
"Xiaoxian takes the order!"
The old man in another cloud in the air heard the sudden shouting of him, so he hurriedly clasped his fists and lowered his body to wait for the command.
"The Winter Lotus Fairy is included in its pavilion, and the remaining three thousand years are reduced to one thousand years, and after a thousand years, all the immortals will come out!"
"Fairy obeys. ”
After seeing that the old man received the order, the man in the cloud looked at the Winter Lotus Fairy again and warned.
"Since the number of days has changed, you should follow the law, but you must not interfere with the law of heaven, and now you have entered the position of 'guardian of the stars', and protect the law of heaven for a thousand years. ”
"Ben Jun takes the order. ”
Only then did the Winter Lotus Fairy salute the other party with a fist, and the man in the clouds disappeared into a streamer in the north and south sky with the clouds under his feet, and returned to the freezer to sleep.
In another cloud, Tianbei Xingjun looked at the Winter Lotus Fairy with a smile and took the initiative to invite.
"Fairy, please leave here with the little fairy. ”
The soles of the winter lotus fairy had clouds on the soles of her feet, and she flew up lightly, and Pang Jinyao on the ground shouted in distraction.
"Mother, where are you going? Don't go! Mother!"
The Winter Lotus Fairy ignored her on the ground, and as the clouds connected with the old man's clouds, they all turned into streamers and disappeared into the northern sky.
The night sky is back to normal, and everyone is stunned.
Qianxun, who had never dared to speak out, sighed regretfully in his heart.
'Alas, the three of them! Nearly five million merits! It's a pity that you can only see it, but you can't touch it. ’
"Little junior sister, don't be too sad, Ling Mu is the reincarnation of an immortal, and now that she has recovered the memory of the immortal, she may forget the memory of this life for a while, maybe after a while, she will remember to come back. ”
Ning Pan walked to Pang Jinyao's side and comforted the former junior sister with concern.
It's a pity that the little junior sister at this time is no longer the little junior sister who loved him before. I saw that she suddenly rushed to Qianxun crying, hugged her waist, and cried and begged.
"Master, please bring my mother back, please!"
Ning Pan, the former senior brother behind him, gritted his teeth and cried in his heart, regretting that he was too high in the past and did not take the initiative to accept the love of the little junior sister, which gave others a chance to take advantage of it!
Looking at the grief-stricken little girl crying in her arms, Qianxun felt guilty. After all, he should be fully blamed for the consequences of all this.
If he hadn't given his mother the 'Tsukidan' produced by the system that broke through the foundation 100%, maybe none of this would have happened. So, he promised softly.
"Don't worry, the teacher will definitely find your mother. ”
At 21 o'clock, Qianxun left alone, and his apprentice had to stay to say goodbye to his father.
When he came to the city gate, he rushed back to the academy overnight with Pu Mulan and others who had been waiting for a long time.
Because of the siege of today's officers and soldiers, in the end, only 27 people were willing to follow Qianxun, and the rest of the people who passed through were worried about causing their families or themselves to suffer, so they gave up and chose to flee halfway.
There was no danger all the way, and the people who came here for the first time, although they had seen the city gate on the flyer, but when they really saw it, they were still frightened by the city wall that was higher than Mingyue City.
arranged for everyone to rest, and Qianxun sat alone on the top of the city gate, quietly meditating and absorbing the mixed yuan stone to restore his true qi.
"Is it really good to be an immortal?"
Looking at the night sky, which was brighter than the current world, Qianxun had doubts about cultivating immortals in his heart.
From the verbal conversation between the three immortals he saw today, he remembered that immortals are ruthless. Thinking that after he became an immortal in the future, he might also become like that, so he felt that he still had the point of cultivating now?
"Master!"
Under the city gate, Pu Mulan changed into a white bathrobe and stood below at this time, and kept waving at him.
Edgeworth descended, looking for gentle concern.
"How did you come out wearing so little?"
"It's okay Master, I'm not cold at all. ”
Pu Mulan moved her arms, indicating that she didn't feel cold, which made Qianxun think that after cultivating immortals, people's physical fitness would become better.
"Yes, now that you have laid the foundation, this cold wind really doesn't matter to the monk. ”
Listening to the words of the apprentice made him think clearly about the purpose of cultivating immortals, that is, from this moment on, a clear life goal began to arise in his heart.
"Master, I actually have something I want to ask you for. ”
"What's the matter? Just say, whoever can help you as a teacher will definitely help you. ”
Pu Mulan pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment, then whispered.
"I want to go back to the real world now. ”
"Now?" asked.
Pu Mulan's tone paused, but she was embarrassed to say the reason, but she was worried that she would find a misunderstanding, so she could only explain shyly.
"I... That's coming. ”
"Which one?"
Qianxun pondered for a moment, and then thought of the girl's one, and looked embarrassed, and thought, 'The female monk is also here?'
Then he said.
"No problem, I'll take you back now. ”
Although, Qianxun wanted to ask what type she needed, and she could redeem it directly from the system. But considering that this problem was too embarrassing, Qianxun had to send the other party back to buy it himself.
Travel through the world.
In the blink of an eye, the two were back in the villa in the real world.
"Well, I have clothes in the house, you go and change into formal clothes first, and then I'll drive you to the supermarket." ”
"No, it's so late, just go straight to the 'no salesperson supermarket'. ”
Seeing the twisted walking posture of the apprentice, Qianxun realized that behind the white bathrobe, there seemed to be a little red mark. He guessed what it was, so he didn't ask any more, quickly opened the door to pick up the car, and rushed to the city with his apprentices.
After a night of running, Qianxun finally spent a shy night with his apprentice in shock.
At dawn, he drove back to the villa.
Pu Mulan, who changed into casual sportswear, got out of the car and stretched comfortably.
Qianxun, who came out of the driver's seat, said with a wry smile.
"Today, you can rest here, there is a villa key card on the car key, and I will leave the key in the car, here you are free, just treat this as your own home." I'll go back there first, and I'll be back in two days. ”
After saying that, Qianxun fled the scene in embarrassment and crossed directly.
Heavenly Boundary.
After returning to the city gate, he found An Jin and ordered him to stay in charge of the academy today and train the twenty-seven people.
He took off and headed to Bright Moon City again.
visited the Pang family and learned from the sad old man Pang that Pang Jinyao had returned to the Lingxiao Sect with her two monks, and Pang Jinyao left a letter for him.
"Master, the apprentice needs to go back to the Lingxiao Sect to deal with some things, if the apprentice does not return within a week, please come and pick me up." ’
Seeing the content of the letter, Qianxun understood the meaning, he, the master who intercepted halfway, and the master who had never met the other party, obviously there might be a 'robbery dispute' in the future.
Subsequently, Qianxun learned from the old man Pang that he needed to pay ten taels of silver for one person, think about the number of teams to be formed, at least one hundred, and then prepare the money, visit the city lord, and apply for registration.
Finally, when the review is passed, Wang Du will send someone to send a copy of the power certification materials, and the 'Good Deeds Academy' established by Qianxun will be recognized.
After figuring out the review requirements, he took stock of the silver taels he had scavenged from the bandits' territory before, and after exchanging those useless jewels with Old Man Pang into silver, it was a total of 1,120 taels of silver, just enough to form a team of 112 people.
Bidding farewell to Old Man Pang, Qianxun flew directly to the City Lord's Mansion with his sword.
The city lord's mansion is located in the center of the city, and the palace is very large, like the palace of ancient kings.
At this time, in this city lord's mansion, not only the city lord and one Jindan monk, but also two monks happened to visit here.
For the search for the rude sword who had no hidden breath, the three people in the house immediately discovered him.
"Presumptuous! How dare you be so rude within the jurisdiction of our Bright Moon Sect!"
The three of them came angrily, but when they saw the giant sword at each other's feet, they immediately changed their tone and said politely.
"Daoyou, this sword... It's really big enough!But this fellow Daoist, please give me some face, don't wanton sword in this Bright Moon City, okay?"
"Well, of course. ”
Hearing that Mingyue City might be forbidden to fly, Qianxun was also a courtesy, so he immediately landed in the city lord's mansion.
The three men from heaven also descended.
The first person wearing an official uniform brocade robe spoke.
"Your Excellency is the person who recruited students in the city at will yesterday, right? The contemptible person is Tan Zhanpeng, the city lord in this city. ”
The tone was calm, and he couldn't hear the other party's emotions, but it made Qianxun feel very uncomfortable, so he politely replied.
"It's a Buddha-figure, indeed. On that day, the deity was almost about to kill your subordinates, but fortunately, someone told the deity in time that he needed to come here to register the team's forces. ”
Hearing Qianxun's sarcastic words and not introducing himself, Tan Zhanpeng said politely and subtly.
"Oh, that contemptible man, I would like to thank your men for showing mercy to me yesterday and sparing my soldiers. ”
"Haha, thank you, I don't need it, I brought one thousand one hundred and twenty taels this time, one thousand taels you can take to help me register a team of 100 people, and the remaining one hundred and twenty taels will be given to the city lord. ”
Tan Zhanpeng smiled heartily.
"Hahaha, it turns out that Your Excellency is here for such a trivial matter, don't worry, don't want the silver two contemptible people, the contemptible people will help you transfer all the money to the royal capital, you go back and wait for some time, someone will send the certification information of one hundred and twelve people." ”
"Yes, then thank you Lord Castle, and the deity will not bother here, and take his leave. ”
After leaving more than 1,000 taels of silver, Qianxun directly said goodbye and left.
After Qianxun left for a while, the two robed Jindan monks behind Tan Zhanpeng asked him strangely.
"Senior brother, why don't you tell the other party that if a monk wants to form a sect force, he must be invited by the founder to go to the Star Pavilion to apply for it. ”
Tan Zhanpeng smiled respectfully at the two senior brothers.
"Senior brother is too worried, the other party is just a team of 100 people who applied for it instead of an innate martial artist. Moreover, if a monk wants to create a sect, who doesn't know that he needs to go to the Star Pavilion to apply?"
The two senior brothers nodded, and their hearts were indeed like this, so they didn't ask any more.
Tan Zhanpeng said respectfully at this time.
"Now that the two senior brothers have understood what happened in the city last night, it is better to go back to the sect as soon as possible to report, after all, it is just a waste of time in this mundane place. ”
"Well, my brother's words are reasonable, then the two of us will leave here, hoping that my brother can get rid of these trivial things as soon as possible. ”
The two of them said goodbye, and directly flew away with the sword, and did not leave the door like Xiang Xun left.
"Hmph! What a break in the rules of the sect! Lao Tzu is just a junior in the Qi refining period, and he actually punished me for ten years! Be a bullshit city lord!"
Pinched a piece of silver sent by Qianxun with one palm, Tan Zhanpeng's face was gloomy and his expression was irritable.
At this time, a shadow jumped from behind him, and a person in the shadow appeared, kneeling respectfully.
"Your Excellency. ”
Tan Zhanpeng sorted out his emotions for a moment, and then asked in a cold tone.
"How's it going?"
"Lord Hui, the other party has built a hundred-meter-high city in the place before his subordinates. However, there are only two strange buildings in the city, and the subordinates have explored it, and found that one is just a house for living in, and the other is a little strange, the whole is made of steel, and the house should be isolated by a formation, and the subordinates cannot enter the exploration, and the subordinates in the city only found thirty-five people, the strongest of which is a congenital early stage martial artist. ”
After listening to the report of his subordinates, Tan Zhanpeng snorted coldly, and began to think in his heart about how to get rid of the stumbling block in front of him.
