Chapter 22: Entering the City Lord's Mansion
It had been three days since Xuan Miao'er woke up, and to be exact, she was awakened by hunger. As soon as he woke up, he touched his stomach on his chest and back, and there were vague internal injuries, and he flattened his mouth in pain, "I'm hungry." ”
The injury on her left hand was basically healed, and she felt that there seemed to be more spiritual power in her body. I changed into clean clothes and ran out like crazy.
It's not meal time now, and the shopkeeper who picks the door won't give her food. Fortunately, now she is not short of those few taels of silver, so she went to the bun shop outside to eat hard, ate and drank well, and packed a big bag of buns.
She now has a storage ring, which can hold a lot of things, not to mention, and she keeps everything fresh when she eats it, and what state she puts it in is still what it looks like.
When she came to a no-man's land and put the burden into the storage ring, Xuan Miaoer smiled hesitantly, "It's better to have this thing." Anyway, it's almost time to enter the City Lord's Mansion, so it's better to make a big purchase. ”
This was the biggest wish of her and Ruan Yu before, she had money in her hand and could spend it as she wanted, and she could buy whatever she wanted, but unfortunately now she can only go shopping alone.
Xuan Miao'er felt that if she entered the city lord's mansion, she should be superior, so she had to buy a few good clothes, and the brocade robe left by the old beggar was a magic robe, which could be changed into any style of clothes. But she can't wear it for the time being, if someone with magic power knows that this is a magic robe at a glance, then wouldn't it be a clear telling outsiders that she has a treasure?
For the little beggar, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is the king, and the behavior of showing off her wealth and pretending to be an uncle is what the children of rich and noble families should do, so she is not so stupid.
I first came to the ready-to-wear shop, and bought more than a dozen clothes in one go, some of which I wear now, and some of which I can wear for two years, she always has to grow up, and it is just twelve after the New Year.
I went to the butcher shop and bought a lot of meat, all whole chickens and whole sheep. And find someone in the barbecue shop to make fragrant food, for which I spent a lot of silver, and I was distressed.
At this moment, the shopkeeper in the barbecue shop came out to announce a big event, "Ladies and gentlemen, our restaurant is fortunate to have the guidance of the Snow Lotus girl of Baihualou, and there is a new food, please taste one or two first." ”
In Xuan Miaoer's shock, the shopkeeper clapped his hands, and groups of strange-looking shelves were put out. And the meat is also marinated and skewered with various ingredients, and it is placed in front of the shelf, exuding an attractive atmosphere.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this rack is called a barbecue grill, and if you eat well, we will put half of these racks. You can also barbecue by yourself, wouldn't it be fun? The shopkeeper smiled, "Today's afternoon meal is free of charge, please pick your own ingredients and let our shop Xiaoer show you, please taste!" ”
Xuan Miao'er smiled, "Hehe! Saussurea? That vixen would do this, really...... Unexpectedly! ”
But no one wants to miss the free meal that doesn't cost money, and aside from the prejudice in her mind, she grabbed a carp and two strings of chicken wings first.
"Little second brother, bake it for me first!"
The shopkeeper didn't dare to slack off when he saw her aggressiveness, but this one spent a lot of money to let them process and eat, and he was probably a rich man.
Xuan Miao'er was misunderstood by Mei Miao'er, and the result was that the food she chose was quickly processed.
Looking at the smokeless charcoal on the shopkeeper, brushing and sprinkling on the fish, he was stunned for a while, but the aroma of the roast was very attractive.
"Wow! Little second brother, this fish is so fragrant, what are you brushing, and what are you sprinkling? ”
The shopkeeper smiled: "This is the exclusive secret recipe of this store. ”
Xuan Miao'er touched her nose and smiled: "Isn't it the secret recipe given by Snow Lotus again?" Alas, how much silver you gave her? ”
The shopkeeper also smiled, "The Snow Lotus girl is called Bing Xue smart, and she can think of such a good food." I don't know how much silver I gave, but every month Miss Snow Lotus will send this seasoning. The rest is just oil, salt and chili, and of course the pickle is also the secret of our store. ”
"Oh." Xuan Miao'er nodded, and tasted the fish carefully after it was grilled.
She is also a lover of food, but as a beggar she has to live a tight life, but she can tell everything she has tasted, and she can basically know what ingredients are used in a fish. I wanted to go to the restaurant as an apprentice, but the old beggar didn't allow it, so I missed it.
It's just that I don't know the last taste, maybe it's the material given by Snow Lotus.
Xuan Miao'er wondered, Xue Lian was just a girl from Baihualou, where did she get the material? Mo didn't have her field elsewhere, which is strange.
"Green. Lou Lady even knows how to farm? Hehe! Xuan Miao'er laughed softly and set her eyes on the barbecue grill, if only there was such a rack when she went out.
After eating, Xuan Miaoer spent another fifty taels of silver to buy a barbecue grill and plant various oil, salt, peppers and other things, and the food was finally complete.
Back at the inn, Xuan Miao'er called Lin Qing but no one answered, knowing that he might have to sleep for a while. I also found that Yulian Qingxinhuo was calmly lying on the brocade silk painted with a hundred flower fairies, and it became a seed again.
Xuan Miao'er didn't dare to touch it anymore, her hand still hurt.
In this way, she practiced in the guest room while waiting for the announcement of the City Lord's Mansion two months later.
Hungry to catch up with the meal at the inn, the diligent Xuan Miao'er was one step away from entering the third layer of qi refining two months later, and wanted to rush up, but found that the announcement of the City Lord's Mansion had been officially issued.
After eating the last stored grain, Xuan Miao'er was very depressed, she knew the alchemy in the cultivation realm after reading the jade slip left by the old beggar, and what she wanted most at the moment was Bigu Dan.
What a good money-saving pill, after two months of squandering, Xuan Miao'er only has two hundred taels of silver left in her hand, if she doesn't enter the city lord's mansion to find an errand to do, she will really sit on a empty mountain.
Since Mo Tianqi's first battle, it is not that no one has questioned the City Lord's Mansion, since these are all common knowledge in the cultivation realm, why do they hide it from the people of Rock City? It's not that no one has ever traveled to and from other cities, and they also know some common sense of cultivation, but they can only come to cultivate secretly, and they are often not allowed to get started.
When this kind of questioning reached its peak, the City Lord's Mansion finally issued an announcement to openly recruit people. The announcement issued by the City Lord's Mansion of Iwaki City caused a huge response in Shili Baxiang, it turns out that there are really people who can fly in this world, and it turns out that people with spiritual roots can also cultivate immortals and fly!
Xuan Miao'er went to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion early in the morning to wait, but she found that it was still late, and there was already a long queue in front of her. When she was anxious, Mo Xiaoyan came to her side and led her directly to the front.
She thought, this is a backdoor. I feel a little fluttering in my heart, thinking that she can go through the back door as a little beggar, haha!
The first level of entering the City Lord's Mansion was to test the spiritual root, and Xuan Miao'er held a jade ruler, and the five gems inlaid on it lit up three.
The tester's eyes lit up, "The three spirit roots of fire, wood and water can enter the city lord's mansion." ”
With a simple test, Xuan Miaoer officially stepped into a place that she couldn't think of before.
As soon as the front foot stepped into the gate, he heard the words of the test person, "Five spirit roots, you can also enter the city lord's mansion, Snow Lotus girl, please!" ”
