Chapter Ninety-Three: The Akami Spirit Ape
Drifting Cloud City, located in the southeast corner of the Aura Continent, belongs to the second-rate city of the Zhongzhou Empire, although it is a small city, it is also compared to those big cities.
The permanent population of Drifting Cloud City is tens of millions, and this is only the population inside the city, not counting the population of the surrounding towns and villages. Among them, there are tens of thousands of cultivators, a large number of them are casual cultivators, there are dozens of cultivation sects large and small around Drifting Cloud City, as well as cultivation families, and there are tens of thousands of disciples, so the comprehensive strength of Drifting Cloud City is more than dozens of times stronger than Tianshui City.
At the end of the official road, a young man in black walked slowly, with a starling standing on his left shoulder, followed by a white-clothed boy, and a middle-aged man in a gray robe, it was Li Fugui who took Liu Jin and Li Yi.
Although the pace of several people was slow, they could cross a long distance with one step, and in just a few breaths, several people crossed a distance of thousands of meters and came to the city gate.
The mortals who were queuing up to enter the city could see at a glance that several of them were cultivators, and they hurriedly bowed slightly to show respect, with a hint of envy in their calm eyes, I don't know if they were envious of their ability to cultivate, or envy them for having the privilege of entering the city without queuing.
The ordinary soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion, who were maintaining the order of entering the city, saw a few people appearing, hurriedly walked over, recorded the identity information of several people, and then moved out of the way and respectfully invited them to enter the city.
The prosperity of Piaoyun City far exceeds that of Tianshui City, there is no distinction between inner and outer cities here, cultivators and mortals all live together, walking on the streets, cultivators can be seen everywhere. The mortals who do business here are not afraid of these cultivators at all, but they are very enthusiastic to introduce their products to them, but they do not give an inch in terms of price.
Li Fugui walked on the streets of the city, feeling the prosperity here, looking at the vendors of the philistine, and sighed softly: "This is life." ”
Liu Jin and Li Yi don't know why, they don't know what Li Fugui is talking about, Li Yi is because he was born in the City Lord's Mansion, and he can't understand the life of these low-level mortals at all. And Liu Jin has been stealing chickens and dogs in the cultivation world, and when he has no money, he goes to a certain sect to go around, and he can't understand it at all.
Only Li Fugui, a farmer born in the depths of the mountains, can see those stall owners who are shouting for their lives, and can feel that kind of hard work for life, Li Fugui even has a trace of envy for their calm and ordinary life.
Just as the three of them were wandering down the street, there was a commotion from the crowd in front of them, followed by a howl similar to that of a demon beast, and the mortals in front of them quickly scattered and fled.
Li Fugui and the three of them stood in place, watching a one-man tall ape running towards them, and several cultivators wearing Demon Beast Mansion costumes followed closely behind the ape, wanting to catch this ape.
Starling's eyes froze, and he said to the ape, "Come here." ”
Originally, the ape sensed the cultivation of Li Fugui and the three of them, and wanted to escape by another way, but after hearing the starling's words, he hesitated a little and ran to Li Fugui.
Li Fugui squatted down and looked at the ape in front of him, his brows furrowed deeply, there were more than a dozen deep wounds on his body, his left arm hung down weakly, as if he had injured his bones, and the blood dripped down the street along the road it ran on, and the original golden hair had been dyed red.
There was a flickering flame in the starling's eyes, staring at the few people in the Demon Beast Tower, and the killing intent in his eyes was undisguised.
A few people from the Demon Beast Building slowly approached, and Liu further stepped out to block in front of Li Fugui, at this time Li Fugui had already taken out the elixir and began to carefully heal the ape's injuries, not wanting to talk to a few people at all.
Li Yi said in a low voice: "Brother Li, Drifting Cloud City prohibits fighting, and the other party is a person from the Demon Beast Building, and the strength behind the Demon Beast Building is huge, so it's better not to provoke it." ”
Liu Jin's momentum in the middle of the king level was released, shocking several people in the Demon Beast Building, making them dare not approach any longer.
Among the several people in the Demon Beast Building, one person walked out, arched his hand at Li Fugui, and said: "This son, this red-eyed spirit ape, escaped from my Demon Beast Building, and please return the son, and my Demon Beast Building will be thanked." ”
Li Fugui didn't bother to look at him at all, and even more disdained to talk to him, Li Yi was afraid that the two sides would be stiff, so he hurriedly walked out, arched his hand and said, "A few Taoist friends, how many spirit stones are there in this red-eyed spirit ape, we bought it." ”
Everyone in the Demon Beast Building smiled slightly, thinking that the reputation of the Demon Beast Building had frightened these people, and the man who spoke just now also had confidence at this time, and arched his hand casually and said: "This red-eyed spirit ape, we don't plan to sell it, this is going to be offered to the main building, please return it quickly, if this spirit ape dies in your hands, we are afraid that it will not be good to give an explanation to the above." ”
The main building is the collective name of the top management of the Demon Beast Building, and the Demon Beast Building located in the major cities on the mainland is called the branch building, in addition to selling some demon beasts and the unique elixir of the Demon Beast Building, the branch building will also sell a kind of contract jade talisman, which is specially used to sign a contract with the demon beast. In addition to these, the branch building also has an important mission, which is to provide high-quality demon beasts for the main building.
And this red-eyed spirit ape, that is, the Drifting Cloud City branch is preparing to offer demon beasts to the main building this year, this red-eyed spirit ape's cultivation is in the late stage of the general level, although the cultivation is not the highest, but this red-eyed spirit ape has pure bloodline and extremely high qualifications. It has been carefully guarded by the Demon Beast Building, but it still escaped by it, and everyone in the Demon Beast Building did not dare to kill it, so they could only injure it, in order to bring it back intact, and this was the scene that Li Fugui and others saw.
Liu Jin heard that they said that they would not sell, and his momentum rose a little more, he knew Li Fugui's temper, if a person was hunted down, he might not intervene, but the demon beast was treated like this, he would definitely not sit idly by, so he wanted to rely on his own strength to coerce these people in the demon beast building to comply.
In fact, Liu Jin didn't have much of a good impression of the Demon Beast Building, he patronized the branch of the Demon Beast Building more than once, and once he was almost caught red-handed by the Demon Beast Building, in order to escape for his life, he let go of hundreds of demon beasts, and then ran out in the chaos.
Therefore, Liu Jin was not afraid of the Demon Beast Building at all, and among the three people present, only Li Yi was worried and secretly scolded that he should not hang out with Li Fugui.
Everyone in the Demon Beast Building felt Liu Jin's momentum grow, and their faces began to become ugly, but they didn't dare to escape, so they could only stand in place, hoping to wait for reinforcements.
The man who spoke was pale at this time, cold sweat kept breaking out, and his steps began to move back unconsciously.
But Liu Jin knew the rules of Drifting Rain City, so he just used his momentum to oppress everyone, but did not make a move.
After about a stick of incense, Li Fugui had completed the initial treatment for the spirit ape, the wounds on its body had gradually scabbed, and the injured left arm was also carefully bandaged by Li Fugui and hung on the neck, and Li Fugui even carefully tied a bow.
The spirit ape was a little uncomfortable with his hand hanging on his neck, and wanted to put it down, but after being lightly patted on the head by Li Fugui, he honestly came down, stood behind Li Fugui, and looked at the people in the Demon Beast Building angrily.
Li Fugui first patted Liu Jin on the shoulder, signaling him to stop, and then looked at the people in the Demon Beast Building and said, "This spirit ape is not for sale, is it?"
Liu Jin withdrew the oppression of the momentum, and everyone in the Demon Beast Building was amnesty, and when he heard Li Fugui's question, the man who spoke just now hurriedly responded politely: "Please forgive the son, if the son needs the demon beast, my demon beast building will definitely give the son a twenty percent discount, but this red-eyed spirit ape, please return the son." ”
Li Fugui pinched his chin and thought for a while, sighed and said, "Okay, I'm not an unreasonable person, since you can't sell it, then I won't buy it." ”
When everyone in the Demon Beast Building heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and their gratitude overflowed.
When the red-eyed spirit ape heard Li Fugui's words, his face changed greatly, and he turned around and wanted to continue to escape, but the starling divine sense transmitted and said to it: "Don't move, with us, they can't take you away, just watch it with peace of mind." ”
Li Yi gasped when he saw Li Fugui pinching his chin, knowing that it was definitely not as simple as Li Fugui said, if it was really that simple, then Li Fugui would not be the Li Pipi he knew.
Sure enough, without waiting for the people in the Demon Beast Building to say words of gratitude, Li Fugui continued: "Since I don't sell it, then I have to rob it, lest you go back and explain it badly, am I very understanding." ”
After Li Fugui finished speaking, he looked at the people in the Demon Beast Building with a smile, revealing a harmless expression.
The gratitude on the faces of everyone in the Demon Beast Building was instantly fixed on their faces, knowing that they had met a scoundrel today, but what if their strength was not as good as that of a person, they had to continue to stand in place and wait for reinforcements, this is the first time that everyone in the Demon Beast Building complained that Piaoyun City was too big, if the city was smaller, the reinforcements should have arrived a long time ago.
Li Fugui looked at everyone and continued: "Since you don't speak, then I will take it as your acquiescence, what about this spirit ape, I will snatch it, you go back and explain it quickly." ”
After speaking, Li Fugui waved his hand and turned around to leave with the spirit ape.
The people in the Demon Beast Building didn't dare to let them go, and the man hurriedly said: "Childe, please respect yourself, I think Gongzi is also from a big family, how can he do such a robbership." ”
Li Fugui stopped, his consciousness moved, and the handsome puppet appeared beside the man at dusk, raised his big fan-like hand, and slapped it against his cheek.
There was a crisp crack, resounding throughout the street, and the crowd around unconsciously touched their cheeks.
Li Yi covered his eyes and said secretly, I am afraid that the Demon Beast Building will be completely offended to death this time.
The man in the Demon Beast Building was slapped by the puppet and fell heavily to the ground, and when everyone in the Demon Beast Building came back to their senses, the puppet had already disappeared in front of their eyes.
The man who was fanned, his cheeks were high and swollen, his teeth were mixed with blood, and he spit it out, he looked at Li Fugui in a daze, frightened and angry.
Li Fugui slowly walked up to him and asked softly, "How did this red-eyed spirit ape come from?"
The man looked at Li Fugui with some fear, not knowing what he meant by asking.
Li Fugui raised his voice slightly and asked, "You just said that I was a robber, and I will ask you now, how did you get this red-eyed spirit ape?"
The man froze in place, not knowing what to answer.
Li Fugui shouted angrily: "Answer me." ”
At this moment, several figures quickly approached Li Fugui, and one of the old men drank: "Stop." ”
