Chapter 120: Acquaintances
Soul Mountain Town, located at the foot of the town soul mountain, the residents of the town have lived here for generations, and because the town soul pool will be opened every once in a while, so the soul mountain town is also famous, although it is called a town, but the degree of prosperity is no less than a small city.
Today, there are many outsiders pouring into Soul Mountain Town, but the residents of Soul Mountain Town are not unfamiliar with this, and some people even patted their heads and sighed: "Time flies so fast, it's actually time for the Town Soul Pool to open again......
Because of the surge in the number of people entering Soul Mountain Town, the inns in the town have been filled, and as the number of people increases again, even Soul Mountain Town has no place to stay, and those forces can only set up tents outside Soul Mountain Town and live there temporarily.
These forces also abide by the rules and dare not spread wild in Soul Mountain Town, but it is not so much that they are interested in it, but because of coercion.
Three of the forces that jointly manage the Soul Pond are three of the seven forces in the Eastern Universe, namely the Broken Sea Sect, the Heavenly Thunder Sect and the Xia Family, and it is precisely because of these three forces that they jointly guard the Soul Pond, the Soul Pond has not caused a large-scale melee among many forces, so the baptism of the Soul Pond has maintained an orderly order.
No one dared to make trouble here, because they knew that if they made trouble here, they would undoubtedly not take those three forces in their eyes, and it would be very troublesome to offend one of the seven top forces in the Eastern Realm, let alone offend three of them at once, which would be tantamount to suicide.
Chen Yu stood by the window of the inn room, looking at the crowd coming and going on the street, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, fortunately they came relatively early, otherwise they would have to sleep outside Soul Mountain Town.
Looking at the street outside, some forces walked into Soul Mountain Town with great interest to find a place to stay, but they all returned disappointed, looking disappointed, Chen Yu looked at the many tents faintly visible outside Soul Mountain Town, and looked at the simple but comfortable room behind him, and his heart was still quite proud.
Just as Chen Yu sighed, a knock on the door suddenly sounded.
"Come in!" Chen Yu said without raising his head, in fact, he had already guessed who it was.
Syllable!
Hearing Chen Yu's answer, the people outside directly pushed the door and walked in, Chen Yu looked up, sure enough, it was Zhao Mingzhu, but behind Zhao Mingzhu was followed by Qin Erniu, which made Chen Yu a little surprised.
"Why didn't you stay in the room, why did you come to me?" Chen Yu asked with some curiosity.
Zhao Mingzhu and Qin Erniu glanced at each other, and then Zhao Wenjin stood up and said with a smile: "We have been bored in the inn for the past two days, so I discussed it with Erniu and wanted to invite you to go to the town together." ”
"Don't go!" Chen Yu didn't want to think about it, and refused directly.
"Ah, why?" Zhao Mingzhu heard this, and his face fell directly.
Chen Yu shook his head and said: "This town is so big, there is nothing to see, and there is no decent chamber of commerce, and it is in vain to go." ”
Although he said that, in fact, Chen Yu was still afraid of trouble in his heart, and he went shopping with Zhao Mingzhu twice, once offended Li Changyuan's apprentice Xu Yang, and the second time was Tu Chen, they played on the street but offended the people of the Mu family, which made Chen Yu very worried, if he went out with Zhao Mingzhu again this time, would he get into trouble with someone again?
"Hehe, Ming Yu, you are thinking wrong!" Zhao Mingzhu was not disappointed when he heard this, but smiled mysteriously at Chen Yu.
"Why, why are you smiling so ill-intentionedly. Chen Yu made a disgusted expression.
Zhao Mingzhu was not annoyed, took a step forward, and continued: "Mingyu, what you just said is wrong, there is really nothing to see in this town, but when is it now, the time when the Soul Suppression Pool is about to open!"
"Soul Mountain Town has attracted a lot of forces, and some vendors or casual cultivators want to exchange something, so they spontaneously formed a bazaar, where they are full of rare things, maybe you can find what you are looking for. ”
Zhao Mingzhu's words made Chen Yu's heart move slightly, a strange thing, he is now in need of a spiritual object that repairs his soul power, maybe he can try his luck in that market.
Thinking like this, Chen Yu hesitated on his face.
"Hehe, Ming Yu, let's go, let's go and have a look, anyway, tomorrow is when the Soul Pond is opened, and there will be no accidents if you go shopping today." Zhao Mingzhu saw that Chen Yu had a hesitant look on his face, and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade again.
Chen Yu frowned and tapped his finger on the edge of the window, and after a long time, he sighed and said, "Okay, I'll go with you to have a look, but you have to go early and return early, tomorrow is when the soul suppression pool opens, there can be no accidents." ”
Zhao Mingzhu and Qin Erniu saw that Chen Yu agreed, their faces showed happy expressions, and they took Chen Yu's shoulders and walked out.
"Oh, by the way, we have to talk to Bai Lao first, we will be in a hurry when he can't find us!" When he walked to the door, Chen Yu suddenly thought of something and hurriedly reminded.
Zhao Mingzhu and Qin Erniu glanced at each other again, Zhao Mingzhu directly pulled Chen Yu downstairs, and said as he walked: "Don't worry, we have already told Grandpa Bai, it was Grandpa Bai who proposed to go out with you, he said that with you by his side, he was more relieved." ”
Chen Yu's eyes widened directly when he heard this, good guy, these two boys didn't want to take him at all, but Bai Lao reluctantly brought him with him after mentioning it, thinking about it like this, Chen Yu's heart suddenly became depressed.
......
The market of Soul Mountain Town is opened in the center of the town, and there is a large square here, which was originally a place for the activities of the residents of the town, but because of the great event of accommodating the baptism of the town soul pool, this square is provided to these forces for free.
At this time, this square was already crowded with people, and the cries were endless.
"The first-order spirit soldier, the Split Halberd, has the power of splitting mountains and gravel, and only needs 300,000 spirit coins!"
"The second-order elixir, the Ice Heart Pill, can cure all kinds of poisons, and it needs to be exchanged with the same level of elixir. ”
"Spirit-level intermediate martial arts, wind tearing hands, because there are defects, so you can exchange them with five first-order pills, you can't miss the opportunity, the time will not come again, you have always snapped up it!"
......
Chen Yu and the three of them walked and looked at these cries, but they saw a lot of rare things, but unfortunately, none of them were what they needed, and some were things they couldn't afford, so they walked all the way, and Chen Yu and the three of them didn't buy anything.
Looking at Chen Yu, who was empty-handed, he just wanted to say something, when suddenly a delicate voice came from behind them: "Brother Mingzhu!"
When the three of them heard the sound, they turned around and saw a rather petite girl standing behind them and looking at them with a smile, oh, no, to be precise, looking at Zhao Mingzhu, and behind her were several men and women, dressed in uniform clothes, who seemed to be people of a certain force.
"Xuanxuan, why are you here?" Zhao Mingzhu was a little surprised when he saw this woman.
"Hehe, sure enough, Brother Mingzhu, we haven't seen each other for more than a year!" The petite girl saw Zhao Mingzhu talking, and hurriedly ran forward with a smile and hugged Zhao Mingzhu's arm, looking quite happy.
Seeing this scene, Chen Yu and Qin Erniu glanced at each other, and then cast ambiguous glances at Zhao Mingzhu together, obviously thinking that this girl was Zhao Mingzhu's girlfriend or something.
Seeing Chen Yu and Qin Erniu's gaze, Zhao Mingzhu pursed his lips helplessly and introduced him: "This is Ning Ruoxuan, the daughter of the head of the Qingxu Sword Sect. ”
Zhao Mingzhu paused a little when he said this, and then continued: "She is also my childhood sweetheart." ”
"What do you mean that we grew up together since childhood, what is it if we are not childhood sweethearts?" Ning Ruoxuan pouted when she heard what Zhao Mingzhu said, and said dissatisfiedly, although she was coquettish, she looked very cute.
Zhao Mingzhu didn't ignore her words, but asked rhetorically, "Xuanxuan, why are you in Soul Mountain Town?"
Ning Ruoxuan bent the corners of her mouth, revealing a small smug smile, and said mysteriously to Zhao Mingzhu: "Brother Mingzhu, can you carefully feel the fluctuations on my body?"
Zhao Mingzhu was stunned when he heard this, but he still looked at Ning Ruoxuan intently, but his pupils shrank suddenly, and he actually felt the fluctuation of spiritual power from Ning Ruoxuan.
"You, have you broken through to the early stage of the Naling Realm?" Zhao Mingzhu stammered a little as he spoke, obviously Ning Ruoxuan's surprise to him was too great.
"Hehe, I broke through a month ago, I'm amazing!" Ning Ruoxuan said with some pride.
Zhao Mingzhu looked at Ning Ruoxuan a little speechlessly, this is not only powerful, but he remembered that Ning Ruoxuan was two years younger than him, but he was already on par with him in terms of cultivation, oh my God, why didn't he find out that the little kid who followed him every day before was actually a genius!
"You, you're amazing!" Zhao Mingzhu gave a thumbs up and praised, Ning Ruoxuan smiled proudly when she saw this, obviously she was very satisfied with Zhao Mingzhu's praise.
Now that they met Zhao Mingzhu's acquaintance, the two waves of people came together and wandered around the market, but this time there was an extra little sparrow chirping.
"Brother Mingzhu, look at that!"
"Eh, take a good look at that bracelet, Brother Mingzhu, come here. ”
Under Ning Ruoxuan's pull, Zhao Mingzhu accompanied Ning Ruoxuan to visit many stalls with a bitter face.
Zhao Mingzhu accompanied Ning Ruoxuan to visit another stall, and when he was about to go to the next place, Zhao Mingzhu found that Ning Ruoxuan stopped next to one of the stalls, and kept staring at a hairpin, which was made of unknown materials, and the light color and style were extremely prominent in that stall, no wonder it attracted Ning Ruoxuan's attention.
Zhao Mingzhu smiled when he saw this, this little girl has also reached the age of Aimei, so he had a plan in his heart, stepped forward, and asked the stall owner, "How much is this hairpin?"
The stall owner is a very thin middle-aged man, and when he saw someone asking about the objects on his stall, he bared his yellow teeth and smiled: "Childe has good eyesight, the only good object in my stall has been selected by you, so let's see that Childe has a good face, as long as 50,000 spirit coins, how about it?"
Zhao Mingzhu secretly glanced at him, this guy really slaughtered him as a fat sheep? Ning Ruoxuan also wrinkled her smooth forehead when she heard this, pulled the corner of Zhao Mingzhu's clothes, and said, "Let's go, Brother Mingzhu, we don't want it!"
Zhao Mingzhu was just about to speak, when suddenly a mocking laugh came from a distance: "Hehe, a poor person who can't even afford a hairpin is not worthy of such a beautiful girl, you better stay away!"
