Chapter 8: Meeting Visitors in the Capital (I)

For the next week, I took Junyao to practice in Ziyun Mountain. Under my careful teaching, she finally broke through from a spirit to a spirit person, which made me feel a little relieved, at least it showed that she still had room for improvement. After she is promoted to a spiritual priest, I can take her to the academy to practice. To be honest, I am still quite confident in teaching demon immortals to cultivate, but it is still quite difficult to teach a child who only has the spirit master's level, after all, when I perceived spiritual power, it was the level of a spirit master, and I don't really understand how to cultivate in the previous stage, it is better to leave it to the Human Realm Academy with a perfect system to deal with, plus my teaching, the effect may be better.

So now I'm walking with her on the streets of the capital, and I'm going to find an old friend. Teleported here from Ziyun Mountain, but in a moment, Jun Yao didn't seem to have seen such a lively bazaar, and kept holding my hand and leaning on me timidly.

"Don't be afraid of Yaoyao, although there are a lot of people here, nothing will happen, and besides, there is a master with you. I smiled at her to ease her nervousness.

"Hmm—" she nodded at my words, but still a little nervous. "Where are we going?"

"Go see an old friend of mine, now that your cultivation has improved, so we are going to the academy to cultivate, and we can go to the academy to study with his help." I explained.

Walking through the two bazaars, there is a magnificent building in front of you, the towering eaves wall is covered with brightly colored glazed tiles, looking up at the interior buildings surrounded by walls, huge circular flower beds, carved wooden towers, majestic palaces, full of luxury, in fact, this is just a family courtyard. You must know that this is in the capital, in addition to the royal family, the family who dares to build such a magnificent complex here, presumably in terms of wealth, power, and power is not inferior to the royal family.

And this is my friend, Xiao Di's residence, the Xiao family in the present-day East, should be second only to the royal family, but this is only in terms of reputation and historical heritage, if you talk about financial resources, it is difficult to say who wins and who loses.

Jun Yao and I made a big circle before we reached the main gate, which was as wide as a wall, and eight strong guards with exquisite armor and swords lined up in front of the door. On the vermilion door, a big word "Xiao" was written.

The guards glanced at me and Jun Yao, and found that I were strangers who had never met before, and their clothes were a little plain, so they turned their heads with some disdain, and as soon as I took a step in the direction of the gate, two guards stopped in front of me.

"What is the surname of the gentleman, what is the matter with coming to the Xiao Mansion, Lord Xiao has an order, and non-distinguished guests will not be accepted!" said a guard in a cold tone, looking me up and down with disdain by the way.

This makes me a little dissatisfied, these guards are probably new, they don't know me, and they just follow orders, but their attitude is so light, they really have a bit of a taste of contempt.

"What kind of guest is a guest by your standards?" I asked rhetorically, slightly sarcastically.

When the guard heard my question, he couldn't answer for a while, and he was a little embarrassed, and the other guard couldn't stand it anymore, and said with some annoyance: "Look at your poor and sour appearance, you don't have a single piece of valuable clothes on your body, and you are still poor here, you must not be a nobleman, go quickly! Don't let us chase you." ”

As soon as I heard this, I couldn't help laughing, and when I went down to earth, I picked out a piece of clothing, which was a style from hundreds of years ago, and naturally looked poor. "Oh, then, it's not a distinguished guest, is it?" I pulled something out of my bosom, and saw the expressions of several guards change from contempt to surprise, with disbelief written all over their faces, and finally panic.

"Big... The small one is just a janitor, and he doesn't know Mount Tai with his eyes, so please forgive me for my rudeness. The soldier bowed and almost folded in half, apologizing to me.

I don't bother to bully him anymore "Open the door." "That's all it takes.

"Oh, yes!" a few soldiers scrambled to open the door.

"Yaoyao, it's time to go" I beckoned Junyao in.

"Here we go," she hurried to follow.

After entering the door, several soldiers whispered, "What is the origin of this young man?

"That's a token that only the previous heads of the Xiao family have the right to give, and no one in the world dares to imitate it. "It is said that as long as this thing is held in front of the Xiao family, no matter what kind of request the holder makes, the Xiao family must comply with it. "How did this boy get this token when he looks so young?"

After entering the door, Junyao asked me, "Master, what did you show those doormen?" They had such a bad attitude at first, but when they saw it, they immediately became respectful. ”

I just waved my hand and said lightly, "It's nothing, it's just a small gift from a friend." ”

I don't know when I was here last time, the time flow rate of the human world and the god world is different, and it feels like a long time has passed, but the scenery in the Xiao Mansion has not changed much.

I found the living room with a familiar car, to be honest, this living room was built like an official mansion, and people who don't know really don't dare to go in.

As soon as I entered the living room, I found that the room was full of people, the few chairs were already full, and some people were still standing there. Everyone in this hall is not simple, even if there is no place to sit, they are all dressed in silk and satin, and their hands are jeweled, and the few people on the seats are even more unusual.

"Brother Lin, your jade business is okay, I heard that you have recently contracted six more mines in Nanling, and you are full of enthusiasm. The middle-aged man sitting on the top seat joked and said to the man with a round body on his left. Although this middle-aged man was not wearing a single expensive ornament, the bronzed purple embroidered robe he was wearing was enough to show his status, and it was a costume that only officials of the third rank and above could wear.

"Eh, where is it good to talk about, thanks to your care Lord Liu, you can barely maintain it, your previous tax reform has been so successful in the imperial court, and you have done things vigorously and resolutely, so that Lin really admires. The rich man touched the top of his bald head and replied respectfully.

Jun Yao and I entered the door, and then several eyes drifted towards us, seeing that it was a fresh face and ordinary clothes, we didn't pay much attention to it, and a few people noticed Jun Yao's pretty face, and quickly skipped it after paying more attention.

Just as I was thinking helplessly, there was a noise outside the hall.

"Miss, the lord and the lady are talking to the distinguished guests about important matters now, so they can't go in and disturb them!"

"I don't care, I haven't bought any new clothes this week, I want my dad to come with me. ”

"We can go with you when you want to buy clothes. ”

"Just you, don't you have any points in your heart!" a young girl was approaching the parlor, and several maids tried to stop her, but no one dared to actually do it.

"Daddy, Daddy, accompany me to the laundry shopping. The girl rushed into the hall and shouted, her voice becoming a little hoarse.

Everyone in the living room couldn't help but snicker, but there was no trace of ridicule in the laughter, here, no one dared to despise her, because she was the eldest lady of the Xiao family, the baby daughter of Lord Xiao.

"It's still the same mess as before. I scolded her mercilessly, and my voice was steady and loud. When the people in the entire hall heard this, they all stopped what they were doing and stared at me silently, in their cognition, those who offended Miss Xiao would not end well!

"Hah?!Who said that?!" The girl looked around angrily when she heard my words, and then she saw me.

The next thing really embarrassed me. She looked at me, first surprised, then incredulous, "Brother Ling Lone, is it you?" Sakura's small mouth opened slightly, and her little white hand was placed on it.

"What do you think?" I spread my hands and shrugged my shoulders slightly, but as a result, she actually rushed in front of me and hugged me fiercely in front of so many people!

The girl's delicate body was close to me, and the corners of her mouth were raised in a large arc that could stuff an apple, "Great, Brother Ling Lone, I knew that you would definitely come to see me~"

It's a great feeling, but I still want to sigh that sometimes it's not a good thing to know too many people!
