Chapter 669: Solicitation

Lu Yi stopped, turned around, and saw a thin man standing behind him, with a roe head and rat eyes, with two mustaches, and a small round hat on his head, the whole dress of a tent gentleman, at this moment, he was staring at himself with a pair of small eyes, don't look at this person's appearance, but his cultivation is not weak at all, and the aura of the early stage of the seventh order is undoubtedly revealed, so that the surrounding monks are far away.

"This brother, the contemptible Huang Liang, is the steward of this place, just now Brother Ren made a righteous move at the gate of the city, which happened to be seen by the old man, the old man admires Brother Ren's ancient way of warm-heartedness, can you please talk about it in the house?"

Lu Yi was stunned for a moment, but then responded: "Since this old man is kind to invite, I can't help but know how to lift, right?" He turned his head and said to Kirk: "You go back first, when I settle down, I will invite a few of you to come to my house to sit, all the way is tiring, you are hard enough, take this, go back and make up for it." As he spoke, he casually threw Kirk a fifth-order elixir. Kirk was naturally very happy, and knew that Huang Liang must be a member of the Huang family, and it was impossible for him to have any intersection with others, so after saying a few polite words to Lu Yi, he left alone.

Huang Liang saw that Lu Yi finished explaining, so he stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please, took the lead in turning around, and led Lu Yi to a room with a closed door on the side. After the two of them sat down, a young woman served two cups of fragrant tea, then exited the room and closed the door, the moment the two doors merged, a trace of spiritual power fluctuation flashed from the door, obviously blessed with the prohibition of sound insulation.

Huang Liang picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip lightly, then closed his eyes and savored it, the expression on his face was very intoxicated, he shook his head slightly, and finally started to talk to Lu Yi: "The contemptible Huang Liang is the younger brother of the contemporary head of the Huang family in Extinguishing Cloud City, who is in charge of the affairs of the inner layer of Dongcheng, dare to ask Brother Ren's surname?"

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, in Xia Longyu, he is a reckless man, I don't know what Brother Huang invited to come down, so what's the matter?" Lu Yi clenched his fists and casually said the name he had thought of on the road, and at the same time he was very rude, according to common sense, in the face of the other party's cultivation that was obviously one order higher than his own, Lu Yi should call the other party a senior, but Lu Yi deliberately only called Brother Huang, which was obviously a little rude.

Huang Liang didn't care, and continued to taste the fragrant tea and said: "It turned out to be Brother Long, long admiration, long admiration." I happened to come back from outside just now, and I witnessed the scene of Brother Long's righteous move, and the old man also felt that his eyes lit up, Brother Long should have cultivated a certain amount of physical skills, right?"

"Yes, Long got a volume of ancient physical techniques by chance, and practiced it on a whim. Lu Yi began to talk nonsense.

"This is very good, the old man saw that Brother Long bought a mansion, it seems that he is planning to live in our Extinguishing Cloud City for a long time, I wonder what specific plans Brother Long has? Is it to retreat and practice for many years, or is it to use the prosperity of Extinguishing Cloud City to improve his wealth, or is it purely to enjoy and relax?" Huang Liang asked further.

"Long is a lonely man, and he has been traveling from south to north all these years, staying in one place for a while, and then going to the next place of interest after getting bored. Over the years, I have walked a lot, and I am a little tired, Long often deals with demon beasts, and Extinguishing Cloud City is famous for demons, Long plans to come here to live and rest, and when he has nothing to do, he will go to the mountains and forests to explore and make a little money, and by the way, he will improve his cultivation. Yes, what Brother Huang asked was what Long wanted to do. Lu Yi replied.

"That being the case, that's great. Huang Liang slapped his thigh happily, "Brother Long, the old man has a matter to discuss here, I wonder if Brother Long can appreciate his face and not think the old man is too long-winded?"

"Brother Huang is polite, but it doesn't hurt to say it. Lu Yi knew that the other party was finally going to get to the point.

Huang Liang took a sip of the teacup again, he seemed to be very fond of this fragrant tea, and then shook his head and tasted it before saying: "That's the case, there have always been four major families in Extinguishing Cloud City throughout the ages, our Huang family in Dongcheng, Dongfang family in Nancheng, Shi family in Xicheng and Luotian faction in Beicheng, each of them is a famous family with a heritage of 10,000 years. The four of us have also made great efforts to develop into today's scale, and our ancestors have paid countless blood and sweat here. The originator of the four families was four brothers of life and death, and after creating the foundation of this Extinguishing Cloud City, in order to fear that the descendants would be greedy for enjoyment and not want to make progress, they formulated a rule: every hundred years, the four families conduct a big competition, and through the results of the competition, the distribution right of a special location for commerce and trade in the center of Extinguishing Cloud City is determined, and it will be reincarnated every hundred years. For monks, a hundred years is really nothing, but there is a big thing there, and every family does not dare to slack off, which is not only a matter of face for each family, but also huge commercial interests, big enough to determine the rise and fall of the family. As the city of Extinguishing Clouds became bigger and bigger, there were more and more forces developing here, and the matter of this big competition gradually evolved into a major event within the entire Extinguishing Cloud City, not only our four major families participated, but the monks within the entire Extinguishing Cloud City could participate, so it intensified the replacement of the rise and fall of various forces in Extinguishing Cloud City, almost every time after the big competition, there were new rising forces, and there were also rapidly declining families. Fortunately, our four families have a deep heritage, and they are extremely concerned about the matter of Dabi, and over the years, there has been nothing new that can shake the status of our four families. That is why, over the years, our four major families have also bred pride because of this, thinking that there is really no existence in Cloud Extinguishing City that can be shaken by our four major families. However, in the past hundred years, with the spread of the news of the appearance of the demons, more and more monks have entered the Extinguishing Cloud City, and few of our four families have gone out, making us a little unable to keep up with the changes in the outside world. In particular, the new force of the Xiaoyao Alliance, which appeared after Dabi, is fierce, and it has already made the four of us feel the crisis. The Dongfang family had a big battle with the Loose Alliance because of some business matters, and that war shocked several of us, some of the tactics and tactics shown by the Loose Alliance, which is mainly composed of scattered forces that have entered Extinguishing Cloud City in recent years, are obviously more suitable for group battles, and in the battles between monks of the same level, their fighting styles are more diverse, compared to some relatively fixed fighting styles that have been passed down by our big families for many years, I don't know how much more sophisticated. All this has taught our four families a good lesson, making us realize that we are too self-contained and need to be infused with fresh blood. The current head of the Huang family, my eldest brother, is an enlightened person, who saw the crisis and the opportunity at the same time, he adjusted the family's development strategy in time, abolished the old rules that were not used by non-descendants, and began to recruit talents from the outside world to formulate a new family development plan. The primary goal is to gain a larger share of the 100-year competition in 55 years, so that the family can maintain good development. Today's scene at the city gate, let me look at Brother Long, not only because of Brother Long's skills, but also because of Brother Long's character, I originally planned to send someone to look for Brother Long after I came back, but I didn't want Brother Long to come to me, it seems that we are really fateful, so, I dare to invite Brother Long, to join our Huang family, in the future, we will develop together and grow together. ”

"Brother Huang's proposal is really good, but Long has always been used to being alone, and besides, I won't stay in one place for too long, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you." Lu Yi politely rejected Huang Liang's proposal, he had his own plan, so naturally it was impossible to join any family casually.

Huang Liang listened to Lu Yi's words, and there was a trace of disappointment in his eyes, but he paused for a moment and spoke again: "Brother Long, this matter may be a little abrupt below, after all, Brother Long has just come to our Extinguishing Cloud City, and he doesn't know anything yet, and he doesn't have any impression of our Huang family. In this way, Brother Long has worked hard enough all the way, so please go back and rest first, and I will personally set up a banquet for Brother Long another day, and then I will invite Brother Long to appreciate his face. ”

There is a way to reach out and not hit a smiling person, in the face of Huang Liang's politeness, whether it is the identity of the Huang family in Extinguishing Cloud City, or Huang Liang's own cultivation is there, it is not easy for a monk whose cultivation is lower than his own to do this. Although Lu Yi refused the other party's invitation, he still had a good impression of Huang Liang, who was not good-looking, and at the moment he arched his hand at Huang Liang and said: "Brother Huang is so hospitable, Long is not hypocritical, I will go to the new house to clean up and arrange it first, as long as Brother Huang greets, Long will respond." ”

"Well, if that's the case, then we'll settle it. Huang won't keep you today. Huang Liang was overjoyed when he heard this, got up and said.

At that moment, Lu Yi got up to say goodbye, Huang Liang kept sending Lu Yi to the door, and watched Lu Yi leave with a smile before returning to the room.

Lu Yi took the number plate of his newly purchased house, opened the ban, raised his feet and stepped into this courtyard with a radius of thousands of feet, carefully inspected it before and after, inside and out, and secretly asked Mei Qingzhu to also investigate, and after making sure that there was nothing strange, he closed the door, and then took out a large number of array charms, and began to arrange the entire house into a dense and unventilated place, and after placing several trap beasts in the dark, he returned to the bedroom, fell on the bed, and fell asleep.
