Chapter 409: Crane Huoli
The town is called Yangang.
Tang Chengnian was left on the beach, and finally had to fly back to Yangang by himself.
When she arrived outside the town, she glanced at the gate and saw that the people in the queue at the gate of the city were all monks.
Then she should follow the local customs.
After landing, Tang Chengnian sorted out his clothes and walked into the line, ranking last.
There is a small formation at the gate of the city, and only the people in the line are required to walk through and confirm that there are no people who hide their identities.
I don't know how it works, but it's very convenient.
After all, there are too many people passing through this wild goose harbor every day.
It's also a big town, but the specifications can't go up, so it's just a town, not a city.
Tang Chengnian did not hide his appearance, so he walked through that formation very smoothly.
Walking into Yangang, people are left to wander around.
She had learned the lessons of the city, so this time she didn't look for a place to settle first. She wanted to wander around the neighborhood to see if anyone needed help, and she might be able to get a task. Even if she didn't, she wanted to inquire if there was a place for monks to gather in this Yangang, after all, although Yangang was small, it was also a town for cultivators, and it was impossible that there would be no place to buy and sell things that cultivated the truth.
Moreover, she also had to inquire about how to get to Qingri Island.
After reading the mission introduction, coupled with the experience of Xudu City, Tang Chengnian determined that there must be a trap for Qingri Island and his party.
But knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, they prefer to go to the tiger mountains - this is not capricious, but they have to go.
Tang Chengnian stood blankly at the gate of the city for a while, and then prepared to go forward first and go to the north of the city to have a look.
But there was one man who stood in front of her and stood in her way.
"Tsk." Tang Chengnian was a little unhappy and wanted to dodge him, but unexpectedly, if she went to the left, this person would go to the left; She went to the right, and the man went to the right.
It's endless, isn't it?
Is this deliberately looking for trouble, or is it just that she is too young to bully? If you really want to talk about it, this boy is not a few years older than her, isn't someone manipulating her behind her back? Tang Chengnian originally wanted to be angry, but considering that this is the cultivation realm, and there are many monks, maybe one of the earth snakes takes a fancy to her young and easy to bully...... It's better to hold back and see how it goes.
Tang Chengnian thought like this, suppressed his anger slightly, and carefully looked at the little boy in front of him several times.
The man was not much taller than her, a little boy of about ten years old, but his face looked a little cunning.
The name on the top of the head is written Changfeng, and there is no surname. ββTang Chengnian didn't think that this little boy would have the surname "Chang".
"What's the matter with you, blocking my way three or four times, is it deliberately provoking?" Although Tang Chengnian had secretly guessed that the person in front of her was sent to cause trouble, she couldn't put her posture too low. Judging from her experience during the period from Xudu City to Yangang, it is good to keep a low profile, but if she is too low-key, she will not be looked down upon, but will be remembered by others.
Therefore, although she wants to talk, she does not refuse to make an ugly appearance with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes.
Changfeng hurriedly waved his hand and explained, "You misunderstood! I am the guide in this city, and I see that you look strange, as if you have never seen it before, so I guess that you are about the first time to come to Yangang...... Is it? β
There is nothing to hide, Tang Chengnian nodded.
But what is a guide?
"Guide? I hadn't heard of it before, what did it do? Although Tang Chengnian had a vague idea, since there was someone in front of her who could answer, she didn't bother to think about it herself.
Changfeng walked up to her very closely, and said, "I'm here to show the way for people like you who are coming back to Yangang, even if you pass by often, but you are still not familiar with this place, you can also find a guide." We can guide you to the accommodation and trading places, if you want to buy something specifically, you can just tell me and I will help you find out if there is any stock in this wild goose port. β
"Oh!" As soon as Changfeng explained like this, Tang Chengnian understood what this guide was all about.
Then she really needs a guide.
She was not without suspicions, but some of the monks around her quickly gathered children of Changfeng's age, both male and female, but they all had the same cunning faces as Changfeng. In the end, he is still young and can't hide his temperament. However, doing a similar job of being a guide is naturally aimed at making money, and it doesn't hurt to be greedy, as long as it doesn't go too far, and it can make Tang Chengnian convenient, she doesn't mind letting the guide make some cheap.
"I want to leave for Qingri Island, do you know when there will be a boat to Qingri Island?" Tang Chengnian asked.
Changfeng thought for a while, quickly raised his head, and replied: "I know a shipowner, he is just returning to Yangang, he should be able to go to sea, would you like to go with me to ask?" β
"No problem, you lead the way." Tang Chengnian nodded.
Changfeng could also understand some of Tang Chengnian's concerns, and took her on the road all the time, and then turned three corners to a wharf in Yangang. As he walked a little ahead, he kept talking: "In our Yangang, there are five large wharves and sixteen small wharves. This is one of the small piers called Crane Huo Li. β
"Crane Fire Li...... It's an interesting name. Tang Chengnian said casually.
Changfeng said with a smile: "Hehuoli is the most prosperous of the sixteen small wharves, and it is the first wharf established when Yangang was established. Fifteen smaller piers were later built, but none of them were more prosperous. In addition to the five big docks that were built later, but that can't be helped, there are big sects behind the five big docks, and Hehuo Li can't compare. β
Tang Chengnian listened and asked in surprise: "What, is there a difference between prosperity and desolation at the wharf?" β
"Of course. Please take a look here, it is full of shops, and there are small corner markets, and some ships sailing from afar only need to dock at this Hehuoli, and they can directly sell the goods on board, and then buy directly at Hehuoli, and then leave. That's the benefit of a well-built terminal. At that time, a monk surnamed Li cultivated to become the main god, and people called him 'Crane Fire Great Immortal' at the time. This Crane Fire Immortal created this small wharf in Yangang, and since then, the descendants of the Li family have been maintaining this wharf, never pretending to others, and it is logical to name this wharf 'Hehuo Li'. Changfeng finished speaking in a hurry, extremely smooth, obviously practice makes perfect.
"I see, I didn't know it before. However, Qingri Island is not a remote place, so why did you bring me to this crane fire and not go to the other five large docks? Tang Chengnian asked unintentionally, his tone was calm, but it made Changfeng feel a sense of calm out of thin air.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not lying to you, where do I have that kind of guts!" Changfeng hurriedly explained that he was just a small Qi Refining Cultivator, and it was already very reluctant to be able to be unmoved by her cultivation in front of Tang Chengnian. He could feel that the little girl in front of him was young, but her cultivation was profound, and it was definitely not something he could offend. Changfeng hurriedly said, "Actually, the reason why there are large and small docks is also for a reason. β
"Oh?" Tang Chengnian raised his eyebrows, "Tell me about it." β
"At that time, there were no big or small wharves, and the five major wharves and the sixteen small wharves were called 21 wharves. It's just that there is a huge sect behind these five docks, where can the other sixteen small docks compare? These sixteen small wharves were almost forced by the five major wharves to have no business at all, so they naturally complained. However, in fact, the five major sects themselves also have suffering, because too many people crowd towards the five major docks, so that they are overwhelmed, and some small businesses have also found the door, they recognize the famous five major docks, and refuse to go to the sixteen small docks, but the money made by this small business is a drop in the bucket for the five major docks, and it is useless at all, so after that, the five major docks and the sixteen small docks made peace, and each divided the business scope. Changfeng said a series of words, obviously frightened by Tang Chengnian.
Tang Chengnian just hooked the corners of his mouth slightly, and said, "What happened later?" β
Changfeng continued: "Later, the five major wharves specialized in the public ship business, sailing long distances, and fixed times. The sixteen small piers are many small boats, close to each other, and many of them are private boats, stop and go. If you go to the five major docks, it is estimated that there will be no boat to Qingri Island in a short time, so I will still take you to this Hehuoli, after all, there is a boat owner I recognize, and he can leave at any time. β
"That's not bad, but why don't the five major piers go out of the boats on Qingri Island?" Tang Chengnian remembered that Qingri Island was also a scenic spot, right?
Changfeng smiled bitterly and said: "There is a demon disaster on Qingri Island, and the monks can avoid it, where do they dare to go." β
[Quest "Yun Changxin Enters the Demon": Yun Changxin is a good elder, and you hope to save her from the demonic state. I heard that the sharp-toothed dog canine tooth of Aohi Island can make a pen that destroys the forbidden spell. γ
Thinking of the content of the task, Tang Chengnian's eyes moved slightly, and he couldn't help asking, "What demon disaster?" Sharp-toothed dogs? β
Changfeng didn't notice the slight fluctuation in her words, and replied: "Yes, there has been a flood of sharp-toothed dogs in Qingri Island recently, this kind of demon beast has rough skin and thick meat, and it is very durable, but it is useless in itself, even if you kill one, no one wants to skin it, and no one buys it after cutting the flesh, so even monks who are used to going to sea to hunt and kill will not choose to go to Qingri Island." In addition, there are too many sharp-toothed dogs now, and they are more difficult to deal with when they are gathered into a group. β
"If it's so dangerous, why don't you persuade me not to go?" Tang Chengnian looked at him with a smile.
Changfeng smiled slightly and replied: "I think, you must have a purpose if you want to go to the island, if you don't want to go, I don't need to say, if you have to go, it's useless for me to persuade you." β
"You're pretty good at making excuses." Tang Chengnian muttered ominously. RS
