Chapter 120: Trouble
Three months later, the Blue Kingdom, Black Rock City.
Two days ago, Ye Lan, Zhu Zhuqing and Lu Xiaoran finally arrived here. Because they were either on an adventure or on the way to adventure before, and the trip to the Western Wilderness Plain and the Death Desert really made the three of them physically and mentally exhausted, therefore, as soon as they left the Western Wilderness Plain, Ye Lan took the two girls to the city closest to the Western Wilderness Town, that is, the Black Rock City of the Blue Kingdom.
This time, after discussing with Zhu Zhuqing, Ye Lan decided to stay here for a few more months and have a good rest for a while. The trip to the Death Desert had been tense and so tiring that none of them wanted to continue traveling the continent for the time being.
In order to protect his privacy, Ye Lan directly bought a relatively secluded house with a small courtyard in Black Rock City, so that he didn't have to worry about his secrets being exposed. And there is a small courtyard that is also convenient for cultivation.
"Xiao Ran, use a little more strength with your left hand, you are a two-handed knife technique, not a one-handed knife, how can you attack with your left hand all the time?"
"Be more stable in the next game, don't use a soul skill to make your center of gravity unstable."
"Watching and listening to all directions, you must always pay attention to the opponent's movements, why do you stare at the front? What if someone sneaks up on you? ”
"Kill the enemy for seven points and keep three points for yourself, don't smash your strength out when you're not sure, what if the opponent dodges your attack and counterattacks, and you don't have time to stop?"
......
In the courtyard, Ye Lan was fighting against Lu Xiaoran with a branch, and kept pointing out the shortcomings in her offensive.
Some time ago, there were more opportunities to deal with soul beasts, and now practicing with people is a new challenge for Lu Xiaoran. Because people are much smarter than those hundred-year-old soul beasts.
Half an hour later, Ye Lan ended the battle with Lu Xiaoran, and Lu Xiaoran didn't care whether the ground was dirty or not, he collapsed to the ground for the first time, obviously tired.
"It's time to eat!"
Zhu Zhuqing brought out breakfast from the house at this time, and beckoned Ye Lan and Lu Xiaoran to come to the stone table in the courtyard to eat.
"Ah Lan, do you have any arrangements for today?" Zhu Zhuqing asked while eating.
Ye Lan thought for a while and said, "After dinner, the three of us went to the city for a walk, and we came here for three days, and we only cared about finding a suitable house before, and we haven't taken a good look at the city." Moreover, Xiao Ran has grown again recently, and she has to customize some clothes for her again. ”
"Okay, then we'll go in a minute."
As the city closest to the Western Wilderness Plain, there are definitely not a few soul masters and merchants coming and going, plus the variety of soul beasts in the Western Wilderness Plain is rich, so there are several soul master colleges in this city, and there is even a high-level soul master college. It can be said that Black Rock City is the second largest city in the Azure Kingdom after the national capital Azure City.
In addition, in recent months, due to the emergence of the mercenary union, the number of mercenaries on the mainland has surged, and the number of mercenaries going to the Western Wilderness Plain has increased several times compared to before, resulting in the current Black Rock City becoming more prosperous.
Inside the Black Rock, there are many people and shopping streets, and almost all kinds of goods can be found here.
Things in this city are so expensive!
Ye Lan finally came to such a conclusion after leading the two girls to shop for a long time.
The price of a kingdom's city is almost as high as that of the Heaven Dou Imperial City, so do you really slaughter the mercenaries as fat sheep?
However, what should be bought still has to be bought, and Ye Dashao is not a person who is short of money, after all, the Xilan Empire left behind the gold and silver treasures of three spatial rings.
Therefore, Ye Lan waved his hand and let Zhu Zhuqing and Lu Xiaoran buy whatever they liked, and they didn't feel sorry for money at all.
By chance, Ye Lan found that his own Juxian Building had actually opened here.
Sure enough, Daddy still has business acumen, and knows that Black Rock City has enough consumption potential.
Since he had already met his own restaurant, Ye Lan didn't bother to go to other restaurants, and directly planned to settle lunch here. There is no way, after all, there are few restaurants outside that can compete with Juxian Lou in terms of taste.
The arrival of the three of them was immediately warmly received by Xiao Er. Xiao Er's eyes are poisonous, after all, the clothes on Ye Lan's three people are expensive at first glance, and they are obviously big customers, where do they dare to slack off.
Take a closer look, oh, it turned out to be a young owner.
Ye Lan said quietly: "Little Er, is there still a place?" ”
Xiao Er was about to salute, but he found Ye Lan's signal, so he didn't insist anymore, but said loudly: "Yes, there is a good position by the window on the second floor, please be inside the three guest officers." ”
After sitting down, Ye Lan asked Zhu Zhuqing and Lu Xiaoran to order a few dishes, and then sent Xiao Er away.
Just when Ye Lan and the three of them were quietly enjoying the food, there was a sudden noisy noise downstairs.
"Guest officer, our shop is full now, see if you can ......"
"Let me wait, you don't ask who we are, believe it or not, we demolished your shop?" An arrogant voice shouted.
Xiao Er had no choice but to go to the shopkeeper.
"Brothers, let's go, let's go up to the second floor, it's too noisy here. This time the income is good, let's have a good drink! A gruff voice shouted, and led the way up the second floor.
The others didn't say anything, and followed up to the second floor.
As soon as these people came up, they immediately attracted everyone's attention. Of course, Ye Lan is no exception!
He was also curious about who was so bold as to dare to make trouble in his own Juxian Building.
After all, Juxian Lou has now opened almost all over the Heaven Dou Empire, and it is not a secret that even many cities in the vassal countries below have opened branches, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is a big guy behind Juxian Lou who is secretly supporting.
Those who dare to make trouble here under such circumstances are either brainless or powerful.
But there were five people, with big shoulders and thick waists, and their faces were full of meat, and there was a strange pattern on each of their chests, like two crossed axes, which should be the emblem of a mercenary group.
"It's rare that the head of the regiment is not here today, we must not get drunk and not return! Well, whoever drinks first will pay the bill. "The name of the person who spoke was Alec, and he was a thirty-sixth-level black bear soul master. This person has a characteristic, his strength is infinite, and it is said that his strength is already comparable to that of the Soul Sect.
"That's it! I tell you, I've never lost a drink. The man who spoke had a fleshy face and a scar on his chin. This person's name is Fred, and his biggest characteristic is that he loves to brag.
"Come on, just you? Which time is not the first to lie down first. Alec said dismissively.
"At this time and that time, I can't drink it, and others will definitely be able to drink you!" Fred shot back.
"Okay, then let's see who climbs down first!"
Before the drink was opened, two people had already started to face each other. The other three also began to heckle.
At this time, Xiao Er had already gone up to the second floor with the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper is not very old, only about thirty or forty years old, and he looks like an elegant and easy-going middle-aged man, but Ye Lan can see that this person's soul power level is a soul venerable.
Speaking of which, Ye Lan was also quite curious, and he didn't know where his parents went to find so many soul masters sitting in major hotels.
In the face of these five vicious villains, not only did the middle-aged shopkeeper not feel afraid, but even Xiao Er had a calm face.
"Guest officer, you can also see, we are really full here......" the shopkeeper's tone was flat and authentic.
"Full?" Fred asked in a strange breath as his eyes began to scan his surroundings.
After seeing the faces of Zhu Zhuqing and Lu Xiaoran, his eyes lit up first, and then he noticed that the clothes on Ye Lan and the two girls were very luxurious, and he was also afraid of provoking the big nobles, so he just looked at them a few times and then turned away.
This made Ye Lan a little surprised, these people are not as brainless as they seem on the surface. He also thought that he was going to run into the classic pretending to slap his face, and he was ready to slap his face, but it turned out to be useless.
It's a pity. Ye Lan shook his head regretfully.
At the table next to Ye Lan and them was a woman about twenty years old with a little boy about ten years old eating, both of them were dressed in relatively ordinary clothes and looked young, so these fierce and vicious men were eyeing them now.
I only heard Fred say quite proudly: "Aren't there two of them leaving, how can you say that they are full!" ”
As he spoke, he kicked the table where the woman was, and the meaning couldn't be clearer, that is, to warn the two of them, this table Lao Tzu is in love, and those who know each other should leave quickly, lest Lao Tzu do it.
"Brothers come to this table, this is a good location, and you can also see the scenery." Fred beckoned Alec and the others, and at the same time turned his head to the woman and boy who were looking at him and said, "Little girl, what do you see, get acquainted and leave quickly, don't spoil the uncle's interest, get out of here while the uncle is in a good mood today!" Otherwise, Uncle will let you taste what it is like to be immortal today! ”
The woman frowned slightly, glanced at Fred like an idiot, and then continued to eat her food. The boy, on the other hand, glanced at him from the moment Fred kicked the table, and then looked at him as if he didn't exist.
Quiet!
For a moment, the entire second floor fell silent.
Some people have the mentality of watching a good show, and some have the mentality that they have nothing to do with themselves, in short, no one has come up to uphold justice.
Noticing Fred's movements, the shopkeeper's face at this time was also completely gloomy,
"Are you sure you want to make trouble here?" As he spoke, the shopkeeper had completed the possession of the martial soul, and three soul rings appeared on his body.
"Hey, I didn't expect it to be a soul venerable. But so what, Lao Tzu is really making trouble today, what can you do with Lao Tzu? Fred sneered and said arrogantly.
At this time, the other four people also released the martial soul and surrounded the shopkeeper, and the four of them were also soul venerables.
"Master, shall we help them?" Lu Xiaoran suddenly asked at this time.
Ye Lan nodded slightly and said, "This is nature." This is our own store, when will it be the turn of these cats and dogs to make trouble. ”
"Do you want my help?" Zhu Zhuqing interjected at this time.
"No need, just a few Soul Venerables." Ye Lan put down his chopsticks and refused.
"Hey, are you two cubs deaf? Didn't you hear me talk to you? I told you two to get out, did you hear me? Fred said with a slight annoyance.
Two people who don't have the same hair dare to act in front of Lao Tzu, I think you don't want to live. Fred thought to himself.
At this moment, Fred suddenly heard a breaking sound in the air, and immediately after, his body flew back uncontrollably.
Fortunately, the four teammates reacted quickly enough to catch him in time, otherwise, I am afraid that I would directly break the guardrail of the stairs and fall down。。。。。。。
