Chapter 281: Buying Yew Wood
"Okay, just cousin, I want you to go out for a walk, okay?"
Seeing Qian Fei'er say this, Qian Linjue couldn't refuse, so she had to nod and agree in an arrogant tone.
"Okay, Young Master Ben will make an exception and promise you, but don't be too happy, this is just a whim of Young Master Ben, not for you."
Qian Fei'er smiled, she has known Qianlinjue's character very well since she was a child, of course she knows that Qianlinjue is a knife-mouthed tofu heart, and she wants to save face when she dies.
After telling Qian Linjue again, Qian Fei'er took out a piece of paper with the name of the item to be purchased this time, as well as the characteristics.
Qian Linjue took it, turned around and walked out of the Wind Sword Sect restaurant with Fu Rui.
Behind her, Qian Fei'er glanced at her cousin's back and snapped her fingers.
A black shadow came out of danger not far away, his toes were on the ground a little, and he appeared in front of Qian Fei'er in the next second.
The person who came was wearing a black cloak with a hood, and his face was old, and he was one of the four guards of Qian Fei'er, Cloud Armor Douluo Bu Yun Jia.
Bu Yunjia saluted respectfully to Qian Fei'er.
"Miss Fei'er, do you want to secretly protect Young Master Qianlinjue?"
Bu Yunjia has been by Qian Fei'er's side all the year round, and he can guess some of Qian Fei'er's thoughts sometimes.
Qian Fei'er nodded.
"Well, send Iron Fist to protect him secretly, be careful, don't be discovered."
"Yes!" Bu Yunjia responded respectfully, and a dodge disappeared.
Qian Fei'er arranged guards on this side, and on the other side, Qian Linjue and Fu Rui each used their martial spirits and were already preparing to go to the Mountain Gate of the Wind Sword Sect.
The buildings and roads of the Wind Sword Sect were all built along the mountain, and the road kept going down, and the two of them did not walk, but chose to fly.
Qian Linjue's flight is undoubtedly the angel martial soul spreading its six wings and directly preparing to glide, and Fu Rui's flight is a very magical way - Edgeworth flight!
Yes, it's really Edgeworth's flight.
On the mountainside of the Wind Sword Sect, I saw three soul rings, two yellow and one purple, rising under Fu Rui's feet, and the sinister and abnormal stunning salamander sword appeared in his hand.
The sword is three feet long, the double blade body is straight and pointed, the front end is sharp, there is a double blood groove in the center of the sword body, the sword grid is like a fish fin, and the end of the sword handle is decorated with a fish head.
Fu Rui took the startling salamander sword in his hand, and the second yellow hundred-year soul ring on his body lit up, and he shouted in his mouth: "Imperial swordsmanship, get up!" ”
As her words fell, she saw the sword slowly float in the air, and then hovered in front of her.
Fu Rui glanced at it, stepped on the sword body of the startled salamander sword with both feet, and then the startled salamander sword accelerated, with a white streamer behind it, like chasing the stars and catching the moon, and flew towards the mountain gate at the foot of the mountain at great speed.
Qian Linjue cast an angelic martial spirit to glide behind Fu Rui, looking at the flying shadow in front of him with curiosity, this was the first time he had seen the legendary imperial sword technique.
After the two of them flew away, a black shadow appeared where the two had just stood, that person had an old face, his arms were far stronger than ordinary people, and he was wearing a black hooded cloak, it was one of the four Titled Douluo beside Qian Fei'er, Iron Fist Douluo.
Iron Fist Douluo glanced at the direction where Qian Linjue and the two left, a little on his tiptoes, and his figure appeared dozens of meters away, and then a little more, he instantly swept out dozens of meters......
Chongqing City.
It was a large city, as can be seen just by the defense and height of the outer walls.
The city wall of Chongyu City is 12 meters high, every 20 meters or so is set up with a convex "horse face", there is also a "urn city" built outside the main gate, outside the wall, the average width of the moat has reached 50 meters, such a degree of defense and strictness, has far exceeded the capital of the Tiandu Empire, enough to see its importance.
And the reason for this is entirely because there is an important facility in Chongyu City - a large granary.
To the south of Chongyu City is the mountain range where the Wind Sword Sect is located, while the other three sides are all flat basin plains.
Surrounded by mountains, the central valley, the unique geographical environment makes Chongqing City warm and humid, abundant rain, grain can be produced three seasons a year, coupled with fertile soil, every year, Chongqing City will usher in a bumper harvest.
It is precisely for this reason that Chongyu City has established the largest granary in addition to Tiandou City, the Chongyu Great Warehouse, inside the large warehouse, which renews and stores more than a quarter of the grain of the Tiandu Empire all year round, and with the help of convenient transportation, it can be transported from the east to the canal, and then directly to the capital of the Tiandu Empire.
From the west, you can enter the river and send grain and grass directly to the Tiandu border and near Jialing Pass.
The defense of such an important granary is naturally extremely important.
At this moment, on the avenue outside Chongyu City, two figures, a man and a woman, were rapidly approaching.
This man and woman, the man has short blond hair, and his expression is unruly, as if everything in the world is not in his eyes. The woman next to her had a cold face, so much so that she was a little similar to the man next to her.
One of the two had wings on his back, and the other stepped on a flying sword, which was Qian Linjue and Fu Rui who came to Chongyu City to help Qian Fei'er purchase items.
When they were about to reach the city gate, the two landed on the ground.
Fu Rui turned his head to look at Qian Linjue and asked, "Linjue, what did Miss Qianfeier ask us to buy?" "Book six
"I'm going to take a look at this." Qian Linjue said, taking out the paper given by Qian Fei'er from her soul guide bracelet.
The name of the item to be purchased is written on the paper, as well as its characteristics.

After reading them one by one, Qian Linjue only felt that his head was extremely big, and this writing looked very detailed, but after reading it, he was at a loss, and he didn't know what it was.
On the side, Fu Rui poked his head to take a look, then looked at Qian Linjue, and proposed: "Otherwise, go and ask the owner of the timber shop directly, it's so simple and convenient." ”
"Well, that's right, I didn't expect you to be quite capable." Qian Linjue glanced at it arrogantly and put away the paper.
Fu Rui's brows furrowed slightly, but she soon relaxed, Qian Linjue talked like this every day, and she was almost used to it.
After being interrogated by the soldiers defending the city, the two entered the city smoothly, and after asking passers-by for directions, they learned the location of the timber shop.
Qian Linjue glanced in the direction of the timber shop and took the lead in stepping forward, "Let's go." ”
He bought timber this time and was going to go straight to the point, not to stay in Chongyu City for more, because there was no Linglu or Zijin around him to accompany him, and it was not interesting to wander around alone.
"Hmm." Fu Rui answered, and raised his heels.
Both of them walked very fast, and after a while, they came to the lumber shop.
Entering the store, Qian Linjue saw the boss and went straight to the point.
"Boss, do you have yew wood here?" Qian Linjue asked.
"Nope." The boss answered very honestly and directly.
"Huh?" Qian Linjue was a little speechless, so there was no such thing?
Fu Rui glanced at the side and proposed, "Let's go to another store and ask." ”
Qian Linjue frowned and nodded, agreeing.
Next, the two went out of the store together and asked several nearby timber stores, but unfortunately, there was no yew wood for sale at all.
Not only that, one of the shopkeepers also told Qian Linjue that there was no yew wood near Chongyu City, and to buy yew wood, it was necessary to go to the vicinity of the Elephant Armor Sect.
Weevil?
Qian Linjue thought about it and decided to go back.
Now that he is sure that there is no yew wood, he has nothing else to buy, nothing else, it is better to go back to read comics or fishing, it really can't work, it is okay to find Zijin and let her play the guitar and listen.
Thinking in her heart, Qian Linjue asked Fu Rui, "Fu Rui, is it okay to go back now?" ”
Fu Rui hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
She actually wanted to take a stroll around Chongyu City, but since Qian Linjue said so, she couldn't say anything to refute.
With Fu Rui's consent, Qian Linjue turned around and walked in the direction in which he was coming, and behind, Fu Rui quickly followed.
The two walked for a while, and suddenly, there was a noisy sound not far ahead.
Qian Linjue looked ahead and saw several middle-aged men grabbing a little girl who was only eleven or twelve years old, the little girl struggled desperately, but to no avail, and couldn't break free from the clutches of those men.
The girl cried out loudly, and in front of her was a middle-aged woman who looked somewhat similar to her, apparently the girl's mother.
The woman sat on the ground, hugged a man's legs, wept heartbreakingly, and pleaded.
"Please, sir, let my daughter go, she's only eleven years old......"
The man's face was full of flesh and his face was vicious, and he kicked the woman away with one kick.
"Get out, pay off the debt, it's justified, your husband can't pay back the money, so he will use your daughter to pay off the debt, there's nothing to say!"
The woman cried even louder, and her voice was full of despair.
"If you lend him a thousand gold coins, you will have to pay back 100,000 yuan a month, who will pay it back, woo woo ......"
The man sneered, "Get out, this is what he asked for, it is clearly written in black and white, can I still fake?" ”
