Chapter 27: Fang City (2)

A rich aura came to the face.

Although the degree is not as good as Shang Feng, it is many times better than on the road of these heavenly deeds.

At the foot of the foot is a huge wide street that appears.

It stretches straight into the distance.

The entire city is unusually flat.

The streets are full of people.

The streets are lined with blue bricks and tiles, and there are many buildings, and small buildings and bungalows are located during the period.

The shops on both sides have customers coming in and out, and it looks like business is doing well.

Even at the east end of the street, where there were no shops in the past, there were stalls on both sides.

The goods on each stall are varied and strange, and few Xiao Jiu knows them.

When Xiao Jiu was carefully observing, Li Shang next to him was already cheering, and he was very happy.

Huang Cheng stood beside Li Kejia with an honest face and a blank face, and it could be seen from his expression that this kind of scene in Fang Market was sparse and ordinary for him.

Li Kejia listened to Li Shang's cheers, looked at the excited Li Shang and smiled softly, and explained to Li Shang what he was curious about as he walked forward.

For example, an unknown bone-like thing on the stall is the hind leg bone of the second-order demon beast Wind Rabbit, which is a material for refining flying magic weapons.

For example, there is a small green grass on the stall, called Concentrated Essence Grass, which is a spiritual grass for refining Bigu Dan.

For example, a short sword more than a foot long in a stall is a low-grade magic weapon and so on.

The group watched as they walked, and soon passed through the area where the stalls were set up.

They followed Li Ke's house through the path next to the second shop on the left side of the street, and after turning around, they came to an inn.

The inn is divided into three floors.

The sign outside the inn hangs its name - Donglai Inn.

Xiao Jiu followed into the hall.

See that the hall is wide, seven or eight zhang wide horizontally, and ten zhang deep longitudinally.

On both sides of the hall there are some tables and chairs neatly placed in turn, in addition to the wide windows on both sides of the door, there are also four windows on the walls on both sides, which makes the whole hall bright and clean, spacious and transparent.

At the innermost end of the door, a two-foot wide aisle leads to the counter.

Inside the counter, two low-level Qi refining cultivators were busy, one of them was slightly fatter and the other was slightly thin.

The group came to the counter.

Li Kejia touched the storage bag, took out a jade card, and handed it to Xiao Er. The fat little second took the jade card neatly, his eyes swept over, and he smiled with a smile on his face in just a moment: "It turned out to be the predecessor of the Li family, is it a stay or a sharp?" ”

Li Kejia only raised his hand lightly and said, "Four upper rooms, prepare a few signature dishes in the store." ”

"Okay, wait a minute!"

The fat little er quickly took out a few signs from the drawer and handed over the previous jade plate: "This is the jade plate of the four upper rooms you wanted." ”

Then he asked, "Do you want the meal to be served in the hall or delivered to the room?" ”

Li Kejia took the jade card and replied: "Take the juniors in the family out for a walk, use it in the hall, and then we will serve the meal when we come down later、、、、、、" said and divided the jade card into one person.

Xiao Jiu observed the jade plaque in his hand, which was only two fingers long and wide, and the words 'twelve' were engraved on it.

The group was about to go upstairs when they saw a group of people coming down from the stairs.

There were also four people on this trip.

Two of them have bright eyes and bright teeth, and their posture is chic, and they are each handsome. At first glance, these two people look like sons and brothers, but one is slightly taller and the other is slightly shorter.

The other two are well-behaved and dressed as servants, and in terms of appearance, they are better than Huang Cheng.

The tall boy led by the leader saw Xiao Jiu and his party, and his downward movement was slightly sluggish, so he smiled and saluted: "It turned out to be Uncle Li, I haven't seen you for a long time!" ”

Seeing Li Kejia's face with a gentle smile, he replied: "It turned out to be Senior Nephew Pan and Senior Nephew Fang, I didn't expect to meet the two senior nephews of Fengling Longjiao together, presumably they often exchanged cultivation experiences together, so that the cultivation of the two senior nephews has improved." ”

Hearing this, the faces of the two sons and sons were a little red.

Half a ring, the slightly shorter boy replied with a reluctant smile: "Let Uncle Li see and laugh, this 'Donglai Inn' is the only industry of the three families in Anyang City in Yanbianfang City, and Senior Brother Pan and I can often see each other, but I haven't seen Uncle Li for a long time, and I haven't congratulated Uncle Li on advancing to the foundation!" ”

When his gaze swept over Li Shang, he paused slightly before saying: "Presumably this is Uncle Li's talented and intelligent child, it is really a rare good seedling, if you can live the foundation like Uncle Li, the Li family will be blessed." As he said this, his eyes were uncertain.

Xiao Jiu watched a few people greet each other.

The two servants couldn't see the cultivation, they both looked at their noses, and their noses looked at their hearts and stood aside.

The two sons and brothers alternated to answer the phone with Li Ke's family, but their expressions were broken from time to time.

Although Li Kejia has a gentle demeanor and a smile on the corner of his mouth, the smile does not reach the bottom of his eyes.

It seems that the relationship between Li Kejia and this pedestrian needs to be pondered!

After a while, the two lines staggered.

Xiao Jiu and a few people went up the stairs to the third floor. Only then did I hear Li Kejia's explanation:

The two people before, the taller one was the hope of the Pan family in Anyang City, and the shorter one was the leader of the Fang family in Anyang City, "Fang Jin", both of them were cultivators at the peak of the ninth layer of qi refining, and they used to be called the "three sons of Anyang City" together with the Li Ke family.

The other two servant-like men were one refining qi at the fifth level and the other refining qi at the sixth level, and they were the servants of Pan Bo and Fang Jin.

Xiao Jiu recalled the scene when a few people had greeted each other before, and muttered secretly:

In the past, when the Li Ke family did not advance to build a foundation, the three of them were the Qi refining period cultivators with the most potential for promotion among the three families in Anyang City, and the three of them called each other brothers and equals. And the relationship between the three families in Anyang City is surging and treacherous.

At that time, these three people, as representatives of the children of their respective families' Qi refining period, must have had a relationship that was not simple for each other.

Now that the Li Ke family has broken through to the foundation building, in the cultivation realm where cultivation is the level of strength, it is a generation higher.

The cultivation of the two people who were partial to the birth was at the peak of the Qi Refining Period, and it seemed that they were only one step away from the Foundation Building Period, but the monks in the cultivation realm all knew that if the probability of giving birth to a person with spiritual roots from mortals was one out of a hundred, then the probability of a monk breaking through from the Qi Refining Period to the Foundation Building Period was also one out of a hundred, and how many monks in the Qi Refining Period with outstanding talent were stuck in the ninth layer of Qi Refining for a lifetime, if they couldn't break through, it would be best to have an ending of dying at the end of their lives, so the difference between the Foundation Building Period and the Qi Refining Period in terms of strength and longevity is a world of difference.

In this way, the performance of the previous few people can be explained.

Only what the monk of the Fang family said before, 'This Donglai Inn is the only property of the three families in Anyang City in this city' is very intriguing.

As far as the eye can see, the entire Fang City is lined with houses, but Anyang City only occupies one of the inns.

Does this show that there are many cultivation forces accommodated in this Fang City, and the three families in Anyang City are only one of the insignificant ones?

It's a long story, these thoughts are in Xiao Jiu's mind, which is the time between thoughts.

Continuing to follow, I could only hear Li Kejia in front of me talking to Li Shang: "There are sound insulation and protection prohibitions between each floor and in each room of this inn, which can prevent monks below the foundation building period from listening to the situation in the house, and provide a clean and quiet secret space for the monks who come to stay in the hotel.

Xiao Jiu came to the room numbered twelve, and opened the door and the prohibition with the jade plate in his hand.

The interior of the room is divided into two rooms: inside and outside.

The inner brocade quilt is fully equipped with gauze tents and futons, and the outer tables, chairs and tea sets are complete, all of which are neat and comfortable, and they are indeed worthy of the word 'upper room'.

Xiao Jiu remembered that the rooms of the four of them were next to each other.

His room was on the far right, and to the left were Li Shang, Li Kejia, and Huang Cheng.

While Xiao Jiu was pondering, Xiao Er brought hot water for washing.

After carefully freshening up and changing clothes, Xiao Jiu felt that the dust and fatigue of eating and sleeping in the open and long-distance fatigue for days were swept away.

When I walked out of the door, I glanced at the three houses on the left, as if there was no movement, I don't know if I had already arrived in the hall as Li Ke's family had ordered before, or if I was still freshening up.

Xiao Jiu hesitated a little, and then went down to the hall.

It was noon.

In the hall, the guests sat at seven or eight tables each, and only three or four empty tables remained.

The four people they had met at the staircase earlier were not in the hall. On a square table by the window on the right, Huang Cheng was sitting alone with a cup of tea and drinking slowly, his movements were decent, and he sometimes looked out of the window.

Xiao Jiu went straight to this table, said hello to Huang Cheng and sat down opposite him, poured a cup of tea, pecked lightly, the tea was fragrant, the lips and teeth were fragrant, it was indeed a good pot of tea.

Although it is nothing compared to his previous collection, this tea is better than the tea in the abdomen, and there is a faint trace of aura into the body. Xiao Jiu thought to himself, this should be what cultivators value the most!

Xiao Jiu couldn't help but hold the tea with both hands, showing a look of enjoyment while tasting it, and his lazy and complacent attitude was fully revealed!

It is in stark contrast to the decent Huang Cheng opposite!

His eyes followed Huang Cheng to look out the window, and saw that there was also an inn about three zhang away on the opposite side. The situation inside cannot be seen clearly through the window, and the fact that such a close distance can achieve this effect should be the reason for the ban.

The path between the two inns is only occasionally passed by one person.

Xiao Jiu really didn't know what Huang Cheng was looking at with such relish, so he withdrew his gaze and swept towards the hall.

There are about 20 people in the whole hall, men, women and children, with different postures.

Except for the fact that Xiao Er in the counter could see that the cultivators of the third level of qi refining, none of the others could be seen by her.

Those people, some of them only cared about eating, and some of them talked about something but could not hear the sound, which should also be because of the ban, only two or three tables occasionally heard the sound.

When Xiao Jiu was still waiting for a closer investigation, the Li family's father and son arrived.

Needless to say, Xiao Jiu moved to the position of the back window and gave up the original position to Li Shang, and Li Kejia sat opposite her, adjacent to Li Shang and Huang Cheng.

The little two in the store are very eye-catching, and when the two of them sit down and pour a cup of tea each, the meal will come up.
