When everyone was talking about the man, the crowd suddenly surged, and I saw an elegant, more demonic-looking young man leading two subordinates and walking over slowly.

Under the puzzled gaze of everyone, the young man squatted beside the man, and with his cyan gloved hand, he removed the snowflakes from the man's shoulders and face

"Are you a big bull?" the young man's wise eyes looked at the man, and then asked unhurriedly

The man lying in the snowdrift, hearing someone shouting him, finally came back to his senses after more than ten seconds, the eyes without a trace of color turned slightly, looked at the young man squatting in front of him, and then turned his head again, continued to bury his head in the snowdrift decadently, and did not answer the young man's question

Seeing this, the two subordinates beside the young man became a little angry, and their fists clenched and gurgle, and the man was so arrogant that he didn't even reply to his master's words

The two of them just wanted to teach the man lying on the ground a lesson, but found that the master stretched out his hand to block it

"There's nothing to resent when your wife and children die, you shouldn't lie here" Blocking the two subordinates, the young man said lightly, and then continued: "Whoever harms your wife and children will pay it back a hundred times, a thousand times, if you have the ability to directly carry a knife and kill the whole family, isn't this happier than you lying in the snowdrift?"

The young man's words were like a thorn, piercing the man's heart, and the man's body shook suddenly, and the godless eyes suddenly regained color

"This look is the same as the rumor" The young man clapped his hands, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a strange smile

When the man stood up, the young man spoke again: "How about serving me as Lord and following me?"

The man didn't hesitate, and said directly: "I need absolute strength, absolute power"

The young man's eyes narrowed, and he looked at the man for a long time before nodding slightly: "You are worth it"

"Yes, master"

As soon as the young man's words fell, the man immediately bowed down, but the respect was there, but his face was still cold, because the smile had been buried in his heart with his wife and children

The young man patted the man's broad shoulder, then glanced at the puzzled people around him, slightly pulled out a touch of helplessness from that demon-level face, and said, "Go, it feels really bad to be watched."

With a wave of his hand, the young man disappeared along with the other two, including the man, leaving only wide-eyed, shocked passers-by

Today is the end of the year, Jiang Chen also let go of other emotions, and integrated into this festive festival, because he drank a lot last night, he felt a little pain in his head, and after finding some elixir to relieve the pain, he went to the hall for a change

At this time, the hall was full of red paper, two long and one short, or unedited red paper, presumably preparing a couplet

Walking from afar, Jiang Chen smelled a strong smell of ink, in the center of the hall, there were several large, very simple Eight Immortal Tables, several middle-aged men were holding large brushes, with a thick smile on their faces, quite a smell of Mr. Teaching, of course, maybe it is more appropriate to use the Immortal Wind Dao Bone, because they are all cultivators

With a glance, in addition to his father Jiang Yuan and Qin Xiao, there was also a familiar face, that was Qin Lan, who had left, he was back

Seeing Qin Lan, Jiang Chen suddenly showed a happy smile, although he didn't have much contact with this uncle, he could feel his strong love

"Big brother, your calligraphy alternates between rigidity and softness, you can be called a master, it really hurts the third brother" Qin Lan, who was dressed in gray clothes, swiped a few words on the red paper, then stopped his movements, looked at Jiang Yuan's side, and commented with a smile

"I haven't held a pen for many years, and my technique seems a little rusty"

Jiang Yuan also stopped his movements, and waved his hand to let a clansman take down the couplet that had not been written in ink, before putting the brush on the inkstone, turning his head and smiling at Qin Lan

"Where is the rustiness? In my opinion, third brother, even some master calligraphers are not as good as the eldest brother, Qin Xiao, do you say yes?" Qin Lan glanced at Qin Xiao, and then smiled

"Indeed, my eldest brother's calligraphy is very good" Qin Xiao replied with a smile, and put down the brush in his hand: "It's finally finished, but I am tired enough."

Jiangfu is extremely large, there are many houses, and it is estimated that there are thousands, each with a couplet, which is really hard to write

When Qin Xiao put down the brush in his hand, Jiang Chen had already walked over, bowed down and said, "Father, Uncle Qin Lan, Uncle Qin Xiao"

"No need to be polite," Jiang Yuan waved his sleeve robe and said with a smile

"Little guy Jiang Chen, I haven't seen you for a long time, huh, your strength, martial spirit...... Second Rank Martial Soul?" Qin Lan raised his eyes to look at Jiang Chen, suddenly stunned slightly, and then shouted in surprise

"Huh"

Touching his nose, Jiang Chen knew that he couldn't escape Qin Lan's vicious eyes

"Little guy, I remember that when my uncle left, you were only a sixth-rank martial artist, but in the blink of an eye, you actually reached the martial soul, and you are still a second-stage martial soul, this kind of cultivation really tortures the old bones of your uncle" Qin Lan's eyes widened, staring at Jiang Chen like a monster

"Okay, third brother, don't praise that kid, lest he be proud" Jiang Yuan was also surprised by Jiang Chen's cultivation, but he did not praise Jiang Chen, but became more and more strict with Jiang Chen, and would knock Jiang Chen from time to time, because he knew very well what should and should not be in the martial arts cultivation

Regarding Qin Lan's praise, Jiang Chen just smiled, without showing any pride or pride

After breathing a sigh of relief, Jiang Chen spoke: "Father, I'm ...... On the first day of my new year, it is tomorrow, and I am ready to leave for Tiandao City" This simple sentence seemed to be very difficult, and it took dozens of seconds for Jiang Chen to completely spit it out, and his words were full of reluctance

"Are you going to Heavenly Dao City?" Jiang Yuan frowned, and said with some uncertainty

Qin Lan and Qin Xiao were also staring at Jiang Chen

"Yes, I will leave early tomorrow morning" Jiang Chen replied with certainty, the way of heaven, one is to find the elixir to help my father restore his strength, and the other is also the choice of the city lord, both of which are important, although I am not willing to give up this place where I have lived since childhood, I still have to go

Tiandao City is nearly half a month's journey away from Qingshan Town, and now there is not much time left for the city lord's choice, Jiang Chen seems to be the time to set off, first to understand some matters, it is also good Jiang Yuan thought about it, and then nodded: "You decide for yourself..."

Coming out of the hall, Jiang Chen walked aimlessly in the Jiang Mansion, looking more relaxed and pleasant physically and mentally

Qin Lan's arrival made him feel a lot more relieved, the former's extraordinary strength, coupled with Qin Xiao, the two powerhouses are sitting in the Jiang family, Zhang Wuliang and Wang Tieshan should not dare to come to provoke, even if they come, they are afraid that they will have to go back, after all, the strength of Qin Lan and Qin Xiao is not covered

After taking a stroll around the mansion, Jiang Chen returned to his room and began to sort out some daily necessities for the days to come

After putting everything into the space ring, Jiang Chen hurried to the town non-stop, because there was still one important thing that he didn't have yet

In a shop called Tiantu, there are a lot of people coming and going, but they are generally some half-hundred-hundred-year-old and obese old men, looking at their appearance, they are either rich or expensive, and it is estimated that they are either businessmen or masters of some big families

Jiang Chen came out of Jiang Mansion, inquired about some passers-by, and went straight to the Tiantu shop, he wanted to buy a map, a map of Tiandao City, because he was not familiar with the road to Tiandaocheng

As soon as I entered the store, I was greeted by a map of sheepskin drawn up, some near the city, some farther away, the imperial holy capital, and other empires, in short, there were basically all that should be

Avoiding a few half-hundred-year-olds who came from the front and were about to leave, Jiang Chen walked towards the counter while looking at the walls of the map hanging all over the wall

After sending off a guest who had come to buy a map, the shopkeeper turned around and saw Jiang Chen curiously looking at the map on the counter, and asked with a smile: "This little master, where do you want a map?

Hearing this, Jiang Chen also came back to his senses, then frowned, and asked a little strangely, "The map is still divided into detailed and simple?"

The shopkeeper looked at Jiang Chen curiously for a while, and then said with a smile: "It seems that this little young master has never been far away, the so-called detailed, naturally it is a map with a more detailed record, just like Tiandao City, on the detailed map, even the alley is marked by people, on the other hand, it is just a separate route."

Jiang Chen was a little shocked, this was really an eye-opener for him, even where there were people living there were markings, and it was really detailed enough

Seeing Jiang Chen's appearance, the shopkeeper smiled again: "Of course, the detailed map is more expensive in terms of price because it takes time and the cost is relatively high, and what is recorded in it is not completely correct, after all, maybe as soon as the map is drawn, a certain family marked on the map is destroyed, which is also a common thing."

Jiang Chen nodded, indeed, as the shopkeeper said, what is marked on this kind of map will not be completely correct

"The shopkeeper, may I ask how many gold coins do you need from Qingshan Town to go to Heavenly Dao City, including the detailed map within Heavenly Dao City?" Jiang Chen touched the space ring on his left finger, and asked cautiously Since in the past two or three months, he has bought a lot of elixirs, resulting in empty pockets, and the gold coins seized from Zhu Yuan and the big-eyed boy are also about the same, if the map is too expensive, he can't afford it

"Oh, the little young master wants a map of Heavenly Dao City, I'll see if there's anything left...... Recently, as Tiandao City is preparing to hold the selection of the city lord, many people want to join in the fun, so there are more people who come to buy maps, and some of them are not in supply" The shopkeeper explained to Jiang Chen, and then bent down to the counter to look for a detailed map of Tiandao City

Jiang Chen's eyes were sharp, and when the shopkeeper was just bending down, he saw a strange map, which was not marked with the name of the place, but marked with a shining treasure chest

Jiang Chen, who was curious, stared at the map, and then said: "Shopkeeper, why does the map behind you mark a treasure chest? There is not even a place name, and the route on the map is relatively vague, and if you don't look carefully, you can't tell it."

Hearing this, the shopkeeper who was rummaging through the map of Heavenly Dao City stood up, and then turned to look......
