Ye Lan listened to the shopkeeper's complaints, and remembered the shoe vendor he met in Yongji City, compared with the two, the shopkeeper hated and feared the Tianxing Sect monk, but the shoe seller was convinced that Ning Zhan's mana was boundless, and the monks did not dare to mess around, so he did not take the monk in his eyes. Why there was such a big difference between these two people's views of the monk, Ye Lan couldn't guess for a while. I just muttered secretly in my heart: "I wonder if these guys will go to my Ye Xiangju to collect money?" Thinking of this, a wave of anger rose in his heart, and he couldn't wait to fight with these people, but then he thought again: "This Tianxing Sect is one of the twelve major sects of the righteous path, and it is definitely not something that I can afford to offend as a minor cultivator in the Jindan Realm, but it is just asking for money, not life, I can't say it, it really bullied me, and I have to endure this evil breath first." ”

He originally planned to play nearby for a while and then hurry, but after drinking the clear sky and falling snow in his own Ye Xiangju, and encountering the matter of Tianxingjiao, he was a little anxious to go to Ye Xiangju to have a look, and then hurriedly ate lunch, took the heaven and earth compass to distinguish the direction, and flew towards Ningdu City.

This town is only more than 40,000 miles away from Ningdu, and with his current foot strength, he will fly there in less than an hour. He traveled in northern Xinjiang for half a year, and knew that some cities were guarded by immortal formations, and he couldn't fly into them rashly, so he didn't dare to be careless, and he landed outside the city gate and walked into the city quickly.

This Ningdu city is the capital of Tianning, it is also the largest city of the empire, the business travelers from all over the world come and go endlessly, the world's treasures are gathered here, the cars and horses on the road are rushing like water, the buildings next to the road are high into the sky, it is really indescribable prosperity, and the prosperity is endless.

Ye Lan didn't know where Ye Xiangju was, so he rewarded the beggar on the side of the road with a piece of broken silver and asked him where Ye Xiangju was. The beggar bit the silver with his leaky teeth, and said with a smile: "Ye Xiang's family is big, there are countless branches, there will be a branch every ten miles in Ningdu City, I don't know which Ye Xiangju is looking for?"

Ye Lan said: "What I'm looking for is Ye Xiangju's general shop, do you know where it is?"

The beggar said, "The head office, I heard that on the edge of the imperial city, where every inch of land is valuable, it is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, but it is not something we can call Hanako to go......

Ye Lan nodded and walked all the way to the inner city. This imperial city is in the middle of Ningdu City, only a forbidden palace has a radius of three hundred miles, it is very easy to find, he inquired all the way, and finally found Ye Xiangju on Changning Street outside the imperial city.

That Ye Xiangju is a big house, standing outside the gate, looking at the left and right sides along the courtyard wall, and the left and right corners are almost missing. Under the huge plaque inlaid with three pure gold characters of "Ye Xiangju", the vermilion giant door is wide open, only the carriage and horse are in the door, and the carriages pull the goods in and out non-stop, and when there is no stop, the left and right side doors are also opened, and the pedestrians are endless.

Ye Lan stood outside the door for a long time, and his ears were full of the sound of people neighing. Seeing that there were no guards at the door, he entered through the right side door.

Entering the door, he saw that the carriages were divided into three columns, lined up in three long lines, constantly loading and unloading goods, Ye Lan saw that everyone in the courtyard was busy, and no one came to greet him, so he looked around and saw that the three long dragons were lined up in front of the three warehouses, because the house was huge, so the three carriages and horses were very far away from each other and did not disturb each other. The warehouse on the far right was full of wine, and the smell of wine caused him to swallow his saliva. The warehouse in the middle is loaded with spices, the aroma is faint, and the smell is calm. The leftmost warehouse is naturally full of tea, and the tea is fragrant and refreshing.

He saw that everyone in the courtyard was busy, loading the car, counting the counting, collecting the money, no one had time to look up at him, he saw that Ye Xiangju's business was so prosperous, he was very happy in his heart, but he was not in a hurry to identify himself, but he really didn't know who to find to identify himself, so he looked at the east and west, walked around for a while, and came to the warehouse. Behind the storehouse was a courtyard wall, with a gate on the left, middle, and right sides of the wall, and there were servants guarding the doors. Ye Lan walked to the middle door, and before he could speak, he was stopped by the servant, only to hear the servant say: "The backyard is the residence of Ye Xiangju's heads and families, it is a private house, and outsiders have never been allowed to enter.

Ye Lan wanted to say that he was not here to talk about business, and asked him to go in to report, but suddenly his mind changed, he stopped talking, smiled and walked away, looking for nowhere to climb over the courtyard wall, and entered the inner courtyard.

The rockery in the backyard is staggered, the flowers are full of flowers, the boat is panning the lake, the bamboo is lightly moving, the scenery is very pleasant, Ye Lan walked slowly, and met the servants and maids who came and went on the road, so he hid among the rockery bamboo trees, with his cultivation in the Jindan realm, it was easy to deceive the eyes of a few mortals.

After doing this for a while, he heard the sound of young men and women laughing and scolding from a distance, he was curious, followed the sound and approached, and saw a group of young men and women surrounded by the bamboo forest, the men's clothes were purple and golden, and the women's beads were surrounded by green, and the clothes and ornaments were extremely luxurious. A group of people gathered in a circle, both men and women, their eyes widened, and they all shouted, "Go on!"

"Peck it!"

"Ouch, not good!"

Ye Lan listened to the calls of these people, and heard the faint rooster crowing and the sound of wings agitation, he had already guessed seven or eight points, and floated to the outside of the circle formed by everyone, and looked inward, and saw that there were two roosters in the circle, which were fluttering and pecking, and the feathers on the ground were scattered, and there were already a few traces of blood.

This cockfighting trick, he also played when he was on Liuye Island, and now seeing that everyone is getting carried away, he is also interested, standing next to him and watching the fight.

The two chickens fought for a while, and the winner was decided. A man with a sword at his waist cheered loudly, stretched out his hand to several dejected men and women, and shouted, "Give money, give money!"

The men and women sighed, took out their purses, took out a few pieces of tissue paper, and handed them to the young man with the sword. Ye Lan took a look and saw that those thin papers were all large silver tickets of one thousand taels.

When Ye Lan was on Liuye Island, he only had some color when he fought cocks with people, and the island did not make silver money, the color head was just a jar of good wine, a few pearls, and even who would take care of the little doll Ye Ziliang would be regarded as a color head, and now he came to the north of Xinjiang, knowing the benefits of silver money, but he had never been to the casino to play, and now he saw these young men and women with silver tickets as the color head, he was very excited, and he also wanted to play with both hands at the moment.

The young man with the sword put away the silver ticket, instructed the servant to take two more roosters, and shouted: "Hurry up and bet, Lao Tzu is in good luck today, and after playing this one, I will go to find Xiao Peach Le, but I don't have time to play with you all the time." ”

When several women heard this, their faces turned red, and they laughed and scolded a few times, but they still bet with the rest of the men. Seeing this, Ye Lan stepped forward and said with a smile: "I will also bet on one thousand taels to bet on the victory of this black claw on the left!"

The crowd listened to his voice and realized that there was one more person in the room. Several women sighed, first shrunk their bodies, and were about to retreat, and when they saw the faces of the comers, they all stopped their steps and peeked at Ye Lan's eyebrows from time to time.

When the young man with the sword saw a handsome boy suddenly come, he frowned and said in a loud voice: "Hey, where did you come from? This is not a place to do business, if you come to buy goods, go out quickly." ”

Ye Lan saw that the young man with the sword had blazing eyes, a puffed nose and thin lips, and he looked like a talent, so he arched his hand and said loudly: "I'm not here to buy goods, dare to ask this brother Taizun's surname?"

The man said displeasedly: "My name is Qiu Siyu, and I am the young owner of this Ye Xiangju." An outsider of yours suddenly barged in, and first asked the name of the owner of this room, who are you?"

Ye Lan was stunned for a moment, and replied truthfully: "This...... , what a coincidence, I am also the young owner of this Ye Xiangju. ”

When Qiu Siyu heard this, a trace of anger flashed on his face, and he suddenly heard a person next to him say vaguely: "What...... , where did the stinky boy come from, living in ...... , dare to come to Ye Xiangju to spread wild!" As he spoke, he raised his right arm and slapped Ye Lan in the face.

Ye Lan saw that this person's footsteps were vain, holding a cup in his left hand, his face was full of wine, knowing that he was half drunk, and he didn't care about him, so he slipped his feet and got out of the way.

Who knew that this man had drunk too much, and he missed a palm, his body lost his balance, and he actually fell to the ground and fell hard. The young man named Qiu Siyu was startled, bent to help him up, and asked, "Du Yuanfeng, are you okay?"

The drunken young man named Du Yuanfeng fell so hard that even the corners of his mouth were broken, and he was helped by Qiu Siyu to stand up, touched his lips, and saw that his hands were full of blood, he couldn't help but be furious, and pointed at Ye Lan and said, "You...... You dare to hurt me!...... , everyone, let's kill this kid for me!"

Qiu Siyu saw the blood stains on the corner of Du Yuanfeng's mouth, only to say that Ye Lan secretly made a move, and he had already injured him, and immediately pulled out his long sword with a "swish", and pointed a sword towards Ye Lan's face.

Ye Lan saw that this sword was powerful, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at his left eye, and he couldn't help but be stunned, and a trace of anger flashed in his heart: "This Ye Xiangju has always been taken care of by the fifth uncle, and he said that these people who manage Ye Xiangju are extremely reliable, but most of their children are gentlemen and like to do nonsense, so they have to ask me to use their magic powers to scare them, so they are willing to be obedient." This surnamed Qiu claims to be Ye Xiangju's young owner, and it seems that he is the son of the fifth uncle. I had only first known him, but I had unintentionally fallen on his companion, so why did he do such a cruel hand to me, and he came up to blind me in one eye......? This is not some kind of nonsense, but a great villain who treats human life like a mustard!"

He was angry in his heart, and he was about to punish him, but when he saw that the sword hit halfway, the sword momentum suddenly slowed down, which was obviously the deliberate retreat of the surnamed Qiu. Ye Lan saw it clearly, his heart moved, and he used a true yuan to protect his eyes, his feet were fixed, he didn't dodge or dodge, and let this sword point towards him.

This sword was indeed as Ye Lan expected, until it stopped at half an inch of his left eye. This sword is really dangerous, all the women in the field saw Ye Lan's extraordinary appearance, and they didn't want him to be blinded by Qiu Siyu's sword, and when they saw this sword going to shock, they were all frightened and exclaimed. When they saw Qiu Siyu put away his sword, they all sighed and stepped forward to intercede for Ye Lan.
