Chapter 230: The 'Rules' of the Northern Qi Kingdom
Xiao Wu said: "The reason why Hengcheng's city gate is so big is because of ...... Once it needed to be so big. ”
Heavenly Sin didn't understand it for a while, and then he reacted, and said with a shocked face: "You mean that there will be such a big thing to pass here?!" ”
Xiao Wu nodded and said, "According to legend, a long, long time ago, the fierce beasts in the Phantom Sea Forest would pass by here, and their huge bodies would walk through this main street to participate in various ceremonies and festivals of the Northern Qi Kingdom, and I heard that it was the most powerful moment of the Northern Qi Kingdom. ”
Heavenly Sin's head was a little confused, and he couldn't help but mutter, "The fierce beast will come here to participate in the festival?" Not here to eat? ”
Xiao Wu glared at him and said, "What are you talking about?" I heard that until now, there are still some fierce beasts that have the same intelligence as humans, even smarter than humans, and can speak, but it's amazing. ”
Tiansin looked at her yearning and asked, "Feelings...... Do you want to go to the Phantom Sea Forest? ”
Xiao Wu snorted: "That's nature, this woman will definitely go there and get to know the once powerful beast!" ”
The corners of Heavenly Sin's mouth twitched: "Hehe, I'll hehe." ”
"What are you doing?"
The Candle Flame Saint Monarch found out that Heavenly Sin was likely to be excited and leaked his mouth, and hurriedly came over to interject.
Tiansin laughed and said: "I said master, you should always take care of her, this girl's thinking is too crazy, too cruel to herself, don't make the fragrant dumplings that were raised with great difficulty, and throw them into the forest to feed the wolves, tigers and leopards." ”
Xiao Wu was unconvinced: "What did you say?" ”
The Candle Flame Saint Monarch scolded on the side, "Shut up! I forgot what I told you last time I was a teacher? Be kind of to your junior brother! Also, don't have that idea of going to the Phantom Sea Forest anymore, if you want to go...... Hmph, then you don't need others, you can directly discount your legs for the teacher, and you won't even be able to find your whole corpse! ”
Xiao Wu was taken aback, and turned around aggrievedly, wanting to find a place to hide from the master's anger, but looking at it, he could only walk behind Heavenly Sin in the end and use his body to resist a little relieved. In the brilliant world, if a weak woman leaves the care of the master who loves her the most on weekdays, she really becomes insecure at all, even if she is a small one, she can be regarded as a life-saving straw at this time, and hold it tightly. This is the reality.
After a while, the dodo stopped in one part of the inner city, and the nearby flat, huge bluestone square stretched as far as the eye could see, empty as a desert. At this time, five dodo boats were parked at the same time, keeping a hundred feet apart from each other.
The hatch opened, and about two hundred people walked down from each dodo, and the sect master took the lead and exchanged a few words of greetings.
Xiao Wu explained on the side: "This section of the road is sacred, so you can't fly or go too fast, and you can't use any carriages and horses, so you can only walk through it like this." ”
Heavenly Sin wondered, "Why do you want to do this?" ”
Xiao Wu said: "It's because of respect! ”
Heavenly Sin said: "Respect? Now here...... He is already the top person in the Tianji Gate of the Northern Qi Kingdom, right? I'm afraid that there is no need to make such a respectful posture when I see the lord of the country, so where does it come from? ”
Xiao Wu smiled lightly and said to Heavenly Sin: "Xiao God, you really don't know about the Northern Qi Kingdom, but everyone in the Northern Qi Kingdom will know an unwritten rule of the Northern Qi Kingdom almost from birth, which was set a long, long time ago, no one restricts it, but everyone will abide by the rules." ”
"Oh? Is there such a thing? ”
"Well, the Northern Qi State has a royal family, plus the five major sects. And this Hengcheng is said to belong to the royal family, but it is shared by the Northern Qi State. As for this rule, each sect will send five seniors with advanced cultivation to sit here. By the way, have you noticed that in fact, the old man of Shizun is not the sole power in the Instrument Sect? ”
Xiao Wu said it very quietly, almost bending over and sticking it to Tian Sin's ear, Tian Sin only felt that his ears itched for a while, and the warm aroma came little by little, making him blush and heartbeat.
Heavenly Sin Zhi Wu said: "Yes...... Yes, there is this feeling. ”
Xiao Wu was still unconscious, and said with a smile: "That's because ...... Take our Tianji Gate as an example, the five ancestors who have the most prestige and cultivation are the highest, but now they don't care about things are in this Hengcheng, and the place we are going to is called 'Tianji Palace' is the place where the five ancestors retreat, and it is also the place where the previous big competitions in the door are held. So naturally you have to treat them with respect. ”
Heavenly Sin nodded, "Oh, I see." ”
Xiao Wu said: "Well, yes, the reason why I will make it clear to you first, but I want you to let Xiao Tian restrain your little temper on weekdays, which is no better than anywhere else, in case you accidentally offend the five old ancestors, I am afraid that even the master will not be able to protect you." ”
Heavenly sin felt for a while, and hurriedly reminded himself to be careful, although Xiao Wu hated herself on the surface, she should be towards herself in her heart, so naturally there would be no deception, and ...... Nor is it necessary.
Looking up, after walking for a while, a huge circular building appeared at the end of the wide square, as if it was the ancient Roman Colosseum in memory. And in front of this circular building, there is a bazaar, and many small stalls are scattered along the road, everything.
Heavenly Sin wondered: "Why is it still the market?" ”
Xiao Wu said with a smile: "How can the five old ancestors live here alone? They also have personal disciples, and there are also people who serve them, and some of them specialize in working for the ancestors, completing some tasks proposed by the ancestors, and generally collecting various materials in various parts of the continent, and also taking charge of transactions. These people will naturally have a lot of hidden goods under their hands, and because the people here can't usually have any contact with other sects, they will open such a small market at the time of Dabi, although it is not in accordance with the rules, but the five ancestors all turn a blind eye, and the people in the sect can't say anything. ”
Heavenly Sin smiled: "That's quite interesting, can we go over and have a look?" ”
Xiao Wu nodded and said: "Actually, Dabi officially started the day after tomorrow, today and tomorrow are the two days of trading and exchange between various sects, as long as the master releases the order of free activities, we can go." ”
Xiao Ling, who had been silent on the side, pouted and said, "Cut, what's the point?" Stinky boy, he doesn't have much money, even if he sees good things, he can't afford to buy them, but it's annoying, it's better not to look at them. ”
Tiansin's face flushed, indeed, now is the poorest time for him after he ascended to the status of a marquis, and he really can't find a spirit stone all over his body.
He was speechless and said, "Xiao Ling, please don't be so pessimistic, okay?" Nothing...... Isn't there a master without something? ”
Xiao Ling snorted: "Shizun will give some pocket money on weekdays, but how can he buy good things?" Besides, the master has always taught us to accumulate thick and thin, and if we rely on our own accumulation, we will naturally not give us any money. ”
The little girl was a little depressed when she spoke, and her eyes looked at the market, how could she have a hint of not wanting to go?
Xiao Wu also bowed his head and said, "Yes, I have some savings on weekdays, but in this kind of high-standard market, I really can't exchange anything......"
They all belong to the descendants of the disciples, and their wealth depends on whether the master is generous, and the Candle Flame Saint Monarch ...... Heavenly Sin, who has been in contact with him for a few days, knows that this thing is extremely cautious and stingy.
Heavenly Sin glanced at the Candle Flame Saint Monarch and said to the two girls: "Don't worry, leave this matter to me, I have designated to let you have a good time in this market for two days." ”
After speaking, he ignored the stunned expressions of the two girls, and rubbed to the side of the Candle Flame Saint Monarch alone, without saying a word, he directly stretched his little hand forward and said, "Take the money." ”
The Candle Flame Saint Monarch looked left and right, then smiled, stopped his body and waved his hand, "Everyone can lead the team to rest for the same door." ”
In a word, all the people of the Qi Sect dispersed, some went straight to the circular building to find a place to live, and some went straight to the market, the speed was very fast, obviously there was some savings in their pockets ready to exchange for some good things, but they were afraid that they would fall behind and not grab the good ones.
The Candle Flame Saint Monarch took the Heavenly Sin aside, and after waiting for no one around, he whispered, "Come, I'll listen." ”
Quite simply, want money? Give the benefits first.
Heavenly sin knows that it will definitely not be able to be taken in vain.
"Okay, okay, you've been waiting for a long time for the problem of changing the Earth Fire Cave, right?"
The corner of the Candle Flame Saint Monarch's eyes twitched: "Stinky boy, if you really have a way, say it earlier!" ”
He was for the sake of the question...... This month has been quite painful, and he can understand the benefits of that kind of reform, so he will naturally desperately think of ways to speed up the grinding, and even think of the bad idea of forcing the disciples of the Instrument Sect to study and grind hard.
Heavenly Sin waved his hand and said, "That...... Master, do you remember the wheel I once made? It's the thing that is used to make fire out of water. ”
The Candle Flame Saint Monarch nodded and said, "Naturally, I remember, how can I not remember?" ”
Tiansin smiled: "Then master, you didn't throw them away, did you?" ”
The Candle Flame Saint Monarch said: "No, it's still there." ”
Not only did he not throw it away, he carefully sent it to his room as soon as possible, and he did not eat, drink, sleep or study what was going on for several days, which was also the second pain for him. Of course, he definitely wouldn't know that Heavenly Sin had 'broken' those two wires, and even if he, a person who doesn't understand theory, gave him a hundred years, he wouldn't be able to understand it, and that thing needs to be a 'knowledge base'.
Tiansin nodded and said, "That's good, the master remembers that I put fur on the outer ring of that wheel, right?" ”
The Candle Flame Saint said: "Well, it is the fur, the length, the weight, and the softness, and there is no law in all aspects...... Uh...... "He accidentally told his research, and even he was blushing.
As if he hadn't heard, he continued: "The master can remove the fur, measure the size of the wheel, and make a circular grinding stone to fix it on, and then spin the wheel, and when it spins rapidly, just press the blade against the spinning wheel...... Hehe, as long as the master goes and tries it himself, you'll know. And the grinding stone can also be replaced, for example, when the blade is replaced with a finer grinding stone, and if you want to make the blade look better, you can wrap a layer of hard leather on it, and then polish it on the knife body, the effect is ...... It's something you can't imagine...... Uh......"
Before he finished speaking, Tiansin only felt that the back of his neck was tight, his feet were off the ground, and the whole person was lifted up by the Candle Flame Saint Monarch like a kitten.
The Candle Flame Saint Monarch's figure flickered, and he walked in three steps and two steps like the bazaar, walking and walking: "What you said is too general, or are you making something like that, let the teacher see it quickly!" ”
It's an acute one.
