Chapter 231: Waiting (5400)
The border city of the Star Luo Empire, Xiaoluo City.
The guards at the gate looked at the long queue of people waiting to enter the city, and there was a deep impatience in their expressions.
"Grandma's!" The guard scolded and said, "Squeeze what! What a hurry! Line up for me! The entrance fee is five Bronze Soul Coins! A Silver Soul Coin from Tiandou! The poor sour who doesn't have enough money will get out of here immediately! ”
"Tsk." After shouting, the guard spat on the ground fiercely and complained: "There are so many people every day, I really don't know what these people want to do!" ”
"Come to make money, most of them are businessmen who come from Tiandou to do business." The companion shrugged.
"Cut, Tiandou's people are here to earn our Xingluo's money......" The guard looked unhappy.
"Come on, don't you just think this job is troublesome." The companion said with contempt.
"It's a hassle." The guard did not deny it, "If it weren't for the quick money, I would have stopped doing it a long time ago." ”
"Come on, guarding the city gate is tiring, but it's a real fat difference." Companion persuaded.
"If it weren't for your uncle, you thought you would be here? How many people are counting on this position! ”
The guard sighed, leaned aside, and said, "Also, I have been short of money to spend recently, otherwise I wouldn't have ...... Alas, I really envy those soul masters, even if they don't do anything, they can go to the Martial Soul Hall every month to get a subsidy of a golden soul coin. Even the Great Soul Master can take ten, and the Soul Venerable can take a hundred......"
"If you have this talent, you can also be it!" The companion scoffed.
"Besides, the reason why you are short of money is probably because you have gone to find Xiao Peach too many times.!" Companion disdainful debunking.
He knows very well that this guy's parents have died, he is not married, he has only one sister, and his sister is married to a good family, not to mention that he doesn't need to bear anything at all, and even his sister sponsors him a lot of money from time to time.
My uncle was in charge of the city and took care of him.
However, this guy is still always short of money, and coupled with some of this guy's behavior, it is easy to guess where this guy's money is spent.
"Who said that, I ......" The guard was a little embarrassed for a moment, and his face turned red to defend himself.
"Excuse me, can you go into the city?" As they talked, a tentative voice came.
"Tsk, where are you from, what are you here for!" The guards were interrupted from talking, and their already bad mood worsened, so their attitude became worse.
"Tiandou is here, a merchant." The visitor nodded and said, followed by a small convoy.
"A merchant?" The guard looked the person in front of him up and down, and he looked like he was in his forties, his face was full of wind and frost, and the clothes on his body could only be regarded as bad or bad, so he probably made a decision in his heart.
The guards glanced at a few of their companions to the side and asked them to check what the car was carrying.
After a while, his companions came back and nodded slightly to him.
The guard turned his face, looked at the person in charge in front of him, and said coldly, "Entrance fee." ”
"Yes, yes." The steward hurriedly took out the money bag that had been prepared long ago from his body and handed it over.
The guard glanced at him, took the money bag, opened it and looked at it.
"Ten...... A baker's dozen...... Twenty-one...... Well? How is there one less person's money? The guard said angrily.
"No, Master Bing, I do have twenty-two people's money here! Twenty-two Silver Soul Coins, count them carefully......" The steward said quickly.
"Bastard! I said twenty-one is twenty-one! The guard flicked the spear in his hand and was furious.
"Or do you think I can't even count! I would be wrong even counting from one to twenty-three! ”
"No, no, no, I didn't mean that......" The steward was startled, his face panicked, and he couldn't help but take two steps back.
"I say......," the guard said in a gloomy voice.
"You can't be Tiandou's spies, right? Did you come to our star to lurk? Or are you here to steal information? ”
"No, Master Bing, we are not ......" was suddenly labeled as a spy, and the steward was covered in cold sweat.
"Isn't it?" The guard sneered, "Then why are you hiding someone?" Why pay one less person's money! ”
I don't know if it's an illusion, but the guard's pronunciation of a certain word is particularly emphasized.
However, those who can be caravan stewards are generally not stupid, they are all clever masters, so this time, even in the panic, he still accurately grasped the point.
"Master Bing, I understand!" The steward said in a shocking voice.
Then he hurriedly fumbled around his body, then found a money bag and handed it over.
"Master Bing, this is the 'money' of the person we missed." The steward handed over the money bag with both hands and said with a smile.
The guard took the money bag and flipped it casually, then nodded with satisfaction.
Why does this location come with money quickly? Here's why.
"Alright, let's go in. Remember, in our Xingluo'an, this is not your Tiandou! The guard, having received "sufficient" money, got out of the way, and after another warning, waved lazily and lazily.
"Yes...... steward" The steward nodded, then quietly turned his face and waved to the convoy behind him with a gloomy face.
This is how the king of Hades is better, and the little ghost is difficult.
"This time the money is enough for you to be chic for a few days, right?" While his companion teased.
"Average." The guard laughed twice, and then pretended to be disdainful: "A small caravan, no oil and water......
"You can pull it down." His companion cut him down.
"You can't even get any oil and water for a big caravan, but everyone is supported by a hired soul master. You still want to fish for oil and water......"
Don't look at them majestic in front of these ordinary people, but they have to nod their heads in front of the soul master.
Even those who are teenagers.
Looking for a soul master to fish for oil and water? They're really impatient, aren't they?
"Hehe, isn't this just talking......" The guard also sneered, obviously feeling a little floating.
"By the way, I ask you......" While collecting the entrance fee to the city, the companion asked: "If you look for a woman, you will find a woman, why do you have to go to those places that are generally only affordable by nobles and soul masters?" It's not that there are ordinary places, and those girls are not bad, with your little savings, even if you can make oil and water here at the city gate, it's not a long-term thing! Don't want to find a woman to live honestly in the future? ”
"You know!" The guard spat disdainfully.
"You get what you pay for, you know! The treatment I enjoy here is not in those places! Let's just talk about Little Pink, look at other places, which girl can compare to her! Tell you, don't expect a golden phoenix to come out of the grass nest......"
"Hehe, this sentence should really be heard by my brother......"
"You see, there are people here who think I'm right." The guard showed off, and then he pouted.
I've never heard this voice, it's not someone I know!
"Hey, who are you! Why don't you come and pick me up! The guard said unhappily.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The person who came nodded apologetically, and then asked, "Is the entrance fee a silver soul coin?" ”
"Didn't I say that before? Are you deaf? The guard said impatiently.
"Silver Soul Coins......" The visitor lowered his head, as if thinking about something.
"I don't think I have it......"
"What?" The guards looked up and down at the people in front of them.
At the age of sixteen or seventeen, he looks quite handsome, but what are he wearing!
The linen robe covered most of the body, and the material of the clothes inside could not be seen, but you could guess without looking at the guards that it was definitely not a high-end color.
Clothes made of linen, which are worn only by the poor among the common people, even by the general public.
The guard secretly spat in his heart.
Poor sour!
"Boy, you don't have money to enter any city, hurry up, get away!" The guard shouted impatiently.
If it was an ordinary person, he would have been scared away, but this person didn't.
"Why do I always feel so familiar with this routine......" the visitor muttered as he stood still.
"Boy, why don't you leave! What, want to make trouble? When the guards saw that the person was still standing in place, their eyes widened.
"No, I think you may have misunderstood what I meant......" the man sighed.
Then, without seeing what was going on, a golden coin suddenly appeared in this person's hand.
"Although I have the suspicion of pretending to be slapped in the face when I say this......" The person who came said something to himself that the people around him couldn't understand, completely ignoring their dull expressions.
"However, I really don't have Silver Soul Coins, I only have Golden Soul Coins. The person who came handed the golden soul coin to the guards and said calmly.
"You, you, you......" The guard looked at the visitor with a dumbfounded moment.
"Oh, yes." Before the guards could sort things out, the person suddenly said.
"What...... What's up? The soldier was startled, and his hand holding the spear tightened.
"I just wanted to ask ......," the visitor said.
"Can you find money?"
There was a sudden silence at the originally noisy city gates.
"Yes...... Can you ...... Absolutely. Coming back to his senses, the guard hurriedly said.
"Then it's troublesome." The visitor smiled, his eyes warm.
"No trouble, no trouble......" the soldier laughed dryly.
Then, the soldier put away the Golden Soul Coin given by Ye Yao with a rare speed, and then handed him the Silver Soul Coin he was looking for.
"Oh, that's a lump, thank you so much." The people who came rejoiced.
"Excuse me, is there anything to pay attention to after the process?"
"No, no, there are no taboos...... "The guard said flatteringly.
"That's not good." The man whispered, and walked through the gates.
I don't know what he meant by "not so good".
Many people queuing up to enter the city saw this scene and saw the appearance of this guard, and they couldn't help but be disdainful.
The watchdog is still so arrogant, he has touched the iron plate!
The guards had obviously noticed the sight of these people, and if it was a normal time, then he would definitely be furious, and then personally teach these people some very simple truths.
However, this time he didn't.
On the contrary, he was unusual, and honestly collected money and checked at the door.
There is no longer a situation where there was no "enough" money to be paid.
His companions did not laugh at him, but straightened their chests and looked at their noses and noses.
No one knew that at this time, this guard had been afraid in his heart.
Soul Master! That kid turned out to be a soul master!
You must know that those who can come to guard the city gate will basically not have bad eyesight, otherwise, this job will not last long and may offend some big people.
However, today he really kicked the iron plate.
That person just now was clearly the money he took out of the soul guide!
TNND, you soul master, what are you doing wearing such rags! The guard cursed to himself as he trembled and performed his duty.
Because, he didn't know if the soul master's last words were a warning to him.
Whether it's or not, he can't ignore it......
"Oh, it's not easy to get to the city." Ye Yao sighed, and then removed the linen robe that covered him, revealing a valuable set of clothes inside.
He came all the way from the city of Aden, and he did not know how many mountains he had climbed, and the roads were very difficult to walk, and from time to time some branches and the like scratched his clothes.
Later, after destroying two sets of clothes in quick succession, he bought the robe from a small village.
"When you get here, you should not be far from the Morning Star Forest." Ye Yao thought to himself as he touched his chin.
"There is about half a day to go......"
At this moment, more than half a month has passed since he left Aden City, and this speed is undoubtedly much slower than his original plan.
The main reason is that he was not in a hurry, but took this opportunity to live in the wilderness, comprehend the creation of heaven and earth, and smoke ......
Well, don't blow it, it's actually him who got lost.
He wandered around the mountains for several days before he met a few kind hunters who lived nearby, but he took him out and kindly showed him the way.
Otherwise, he might still be wandering around the mountains by now.
But......
"This is the last time! I won't next time! This time it was an accident! "Ye Yao swears to the truth.
"Okay, let's find a place to stay first, and then it's better to buy a map or something, if you can't do it, hire a carriage or go with a caravan......"
A few days ago, Wuhun City, the Temple of Angels.
"Gotta ......" came a burst of footsteps.
"Coming back?" Qiandaoliu faced the huge angel god statue and did not look back.
"I've heard about it all this time. If the plan fails, it fails, and to some extent it's a good thing. From now on, you can cultivate here with me with peace of mind, as ...... as possible."
"Grandpa......" A voice with grievances sounded.
Qiandaoliu was stunned for a moment, then turned around and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?" Who bullied my little Cher? ”
Qianrenxue, who was dressed in a white dress, pursed her lips tightly, and her eyes were slightly red.
When he heard what Qiandaoliu said, he immediately threw himself into his arms.
Qiandaoliu felt Qianrenxue's body tremble slightly, and it seemed that there were tears flowing down.
"What the hell is going on?" Qiandaoliu sighed.
If it's just a failure of the plan, with Qianrenxue's current mentality, it shouldn't be like this......
After that, Qianrenxue aggrievedly told Qiandaoliu everything one by one.
"I see, no wonder, that kid didn't come back with you......" Qiandao was clear at the same time, and he couldn't help but feel helpless in his heart.
I thought it was a big deal, but it turned out to be this little thing between men and women......
Our Xue'er has also reached this age......
At the same time, there was some itching in his heart for Ye Yao.
Ye Yao's approach was understandable from his point of view as a bystander, and it was understandable that he wanted to be alone in the face of such a big blow and suddenly encountered such a big blow.
However, when he looked at it from Grandpa Qianyue's point of view......
"That is, the old man has cultivated himself in this angel temple for decades, otherwise, with the temper of the old man back then, ......"
Hum......
Don't look at Qiandaoliu being so peaceful and kind in front of Qianrenxue, you must know that Qiandaoliu was never a good talker in his early years.
On the contrary, his character is more strong.
If it was him back then, maybe he would go directly to catch Ye Yao, beat him, break his leg, and then drag it to his Xue'er to admit his mistake, and then throw it away as garbage.
But now......
"Silly boy." Qiandaoliu smiled.
"Give him a little time, and give yourself a little time. Time will give you a satisfactory answer. ”
"But, I'm afraid he's ......," Qianyue said with a sniffle.
"Afraid of what? Afraid that he will change his mind because of this? Or do you henceforth see you as a mortal enemy? Qiandao shook his head with a smile.
"Maybe ordinary people will be like this, even if they have a martial soul fusion technique."
"But, you're not the same. Your martial soul fit has reached the point of martial soul resonance. ”
"Didn't you find out? When you are together, you can feel every emotional change between each other very well, and you have almost no secrets to each other, which no one else has. ”
"So, when that kid comes back to his senses, you will find that in the process of getting along with you, except for your identity, the rest, you have never lied to him."
"Coupled with the fact that you have been cultivating together for so long, you have already deeply engraved each other's imprints."
"This brand is destined for you to be unable to accept anyone other than each other."
"This imprint, even if the two of them are far away in the world, but they are still close in their hearts."
"This imprint will eventually keep the two of you together."
"Wait." Qiandaoliu said softly, "Waiting, sometimes it's not a painful thing, but something worth looking forward to. ”
"Looking forward to the next encounter......"
Once upon a time, he was like this, waiting for a woman.
I don't know how many years I've been waiting......
Still ...... today
Qiandaoliu's mind was rarely in a trance.
The blue in my memory......
"Poseisi ......"
At the same time, another man came to mind.
The man who likes to wear gray robes.
In the same era, he was the only man who could stand side by side with him.
No, even in a way, that man is beyond his existence.
His only opponent and his only friend.
Although the guy hadn't been seen for decades, Chidoryu had never suspected that he was dead.
Because it can't be.
At their level, no one could kill them except the three of them to each other.
As for longevity......
Even if that guy's lifespan is a little less than that of him and Bo Saisi, it will definitely not be like this.
If there were fewer battles, there would still be decades or hundreds of years......
"Tang Chen, you bastard!" Qiandaoliu scolded secretly.
"You bastard, how long have she been waiting for you......"
"Really?" There was also a strong hope in Qianrenxue's eyes.
"Okay, Xue'er, while waiting, your cultivation can't be left behind." A thousand streams came back to God and said.
"From now on, you have to retreat to break through the seventieth level, and after that, fuse the next piece of angel god costume." Qiandaoliu said solemnly.
"Level seventy is also an important threshold for you, once you step into level seventy and then fuse this piece of angel god costume, then, your combat power can even reach the level of Title Douluo."
"Half a year, in the next half a year, you can't have any distractions, otherwise, the compatibility between you and the angel god costume will not be able to reach the highest, leaving hidden dangers for the future."
"I understand, Grandpa." Qianyue raised her head, her eyes determined.
Yeyao, wait for me......
