Chapter Eighty-Seven: Deserted and Fleeing
Starting from the abandoned temple where they met Shen Lin, they had already left the boundary under the jurisdiction of Linjiang City after walking for dozens of miles, and the junction between the two places was not as chaotic as imagined.
As far as Liu Xiu knew during this time, Linjiang City was just a city within the influence of the Changhe Sword Sect, and a city like Linjiang City, the Changhe Sword Sect still controlled twenty or thirty cities.
In other words, even after Liu Xiu left the range of Linjiang City, he was actually still within the sphere of influence of the Changhe Sword Sect, which shows how huge the power of the Changhe Sword Sect is!
The world here is extremely vast, entrenched in countless large and small martial arts forces, from Shen Feng's words at the beginning, Liu Xiu guessed that for the entire world, I am afraid that the Changhe Sword Sect may not be so dazzling.
It's been almost a year since I came to this world, and Liu Xiu's understanding of this world is still limited.
"The destination of this trip, Drunken Flower Shade, is already beyond the sphere of influence of the Long River Sword Sect, and I don't know how the order there compares to ......."
Thinking like this in his heart, Liu Xiu didn't rush there, it was still early before the plot, he was not in a hurry at all, and he wouldn't run away if Drunken Huayin was there anyway.
Because he has seen Linjiang City, Liu Xiu roughly estimated that the cities in the world were similar, nothing more than the difference in size, and after the novelty passed, he didn't have the idea of going to other cities to see, and still walked in the wilderness.
Time was in a hurry, and five days quietly slipped away at Liu Xiu's feet.
In the past few days, he has seen several interesting scenery, in an ancient village saw an ancient banyan tree, the ancient banyan tree is very large, almost covering most of the village, and even many buildings in that village are built on the banyan tree, listening to the villagers there, the ancient banyan tree has a history of thousands of years.
Liu Xiuxin said that the ancient banyan tree of thousands of years, with the particularity of this world, it is not good to cultivate into 'grandma', the banyan tree originally grew fast, because Liu Xiu did not believe in the words of the villagers, he also observed, the banyan tree is just bigger, and there is nothing special.
Secondly, he also saw a huge waterfall in a remote place, which was the downstream of the Nutao River, the scene was really spectacular, the waterfall was nearly eight kilometers wide, the drop was more than 500 meters, the sound of the waterfall roaring dozens of miles away could be heard, the earth was trembling, anyone standing on the edge of the waterfall would feel extremely small.
When he saw the waterfall at that time, Liu Xiu wanted to go to the bottom of the waterfall to see if he could withstand the impact, but when he saw the picture of an old turtle with a body length of nearly 30 meters accidentally falling and never appearing again, he decisively gave up that idea.
In addition to those two special scenery, Liu Xiu also climbed to the top of a mountain towering into the clouds to watch the sunrise and sunset, and he didn't feel anything special after the picture was fresh.
Well, during this period, he also met some people, helped a farmer uncle find a lost farming cow, and also used the candy bought on the road to persuade a group of children to shake hands and make peace, and even sent a villager with a broken leg to the town hospital, the medical expenses were paid by Liu Xiu in advance, three silver coins, he didn't want the family to pay back, it is not easy to see that family, the villager who broke the leg is the main labor force of the family, if he is disabled, the family will be ruined......
Anyway, it's these trivial things, Liu Xiu stops and goes, and when he sees a good scenery, he stays for a while, and he doesn't mind reaching out to help someone who needs help.
However, he was a little regretful that he never met the bandits and bandits, and it was like avoiding him, which made some of the plots hidden in his heart not have a chance to be satisfied.
At noon that day, Liu Xiu himself didn't know how far away from Linjiang City was, and he came to a town.
The town was smaller than Aoyagi Town, called 'Blackstone', and he learned from the townspeople that it got its name from a mineral in the town.
The mineral is a coal mine, black stone, so this place is named Blackstone Town.
Coal mining is the main source of income for the town, and most of the town's people make their living from coal mining.
It is worth mentioning that there are not a few major families in this town, only the Shi family is the only one, and the coal mine is also under the control of his family.
This is a veritable home mine, of course, in this world, there is a mine at home and can't jump up, at most it is just a little card in the town, and you still have to keep a low profile when you go out.
After having dinner in a restaurant in the town, Liu Xiu took out his map to study the next route, saying that it was a map, but in fact, it was just a few place names, the starting point was Linjiang City, and the end point was Drunken Flower Shade.
He is now a third of the way on the map.
"The next step should be to Baita Town, hundreds of miles away from here, I heard that there is a dozens of stories of Baishi Tower worth seeing, I don't know if it's true, I hope you won't be disappointed when the time comes......"
Writing down the name of Baita Town on the 'map', Liu Xiu drew a line, connecting Blackstone Town and Baita Town, and put an arrow on it to be his next direction.
After finishing this, he checked out and left the restaurant, walking around the town, Liu Xiu was attracted by a crowd of onlookers, and was curious to go around to see the strangeness.
A platform was erected on the side of the street, and the platform was hung with colorful cloth to look quite festive, and there were hundreds of people watching from the audience, and the number of people was increasing.
"This old man is disturbed, may I ask what he is doing?" After a few glances, Liu Xiu couldn't see why, so he asked an old man on the side.
The old man was very easy-going, stroked his beard and said, "You are from another place in the next life, right?" No wonder I don't know what's going on, this is the Shi family in the town recruiting a husband, anyway, this platform was set up three days ago, but the Shi family has not been able to recruit satisfactory"
"Son-in-law? The Shi family? Isn't it the Shi family who has a mine in the town? Liu Xiu asked curiously.
The old man smiled and said, "Isn't that the Shi family?"
"Since it's the Shi family, why do you still use it to set up a platform on the street to recruit a son-in-law, as long as the wind is released, the threshold will not be broken," Liu Xiu said in amazement.
There are people with mines at home, Liu Xiu estimates that even if the eldest lady of the Shi family likes to play 'happy balls', countless men will pinch their noses and admit it.
"Why didn't you let out the news, two years ago, the Shi family was recruiting a son-in-law for his eldest lady, but the eldest lady of the Shi family had too high a vision, and she never met a satisfactory one" The old man lowered his voice and said, for fear of being heard by others.
Then Liu Xiu heard a sound of 'um' approval from the surroundings, and several people around him were listening to the gossip with their ears pricked up.
While Liu Xiu was speechless, the old man who was talking to him suddenly brightened his eyes and said, "Hey, you haven't got married yet, do you want to try it?" In other words, if you enter the gate of the Shi family, it will be a lifetime of endless glory and wealth, I see that you are tall and big, and your face is also good-looking, you have a chance......"
What is this, Liu Xiu couldn't smile bitterly, she asked a few more words because of curiosity, why did she put a red line on herself.
"No, no, the opportunity is still left to others, I'll just take a look, I have to hurry, old man, you are busy" Liu Xiu hurriedly shook his head and said.
"Young man, you can give it a try, maybe it will be done all at once."
"Yes, yes, the Shi family's family can be described as a sea of gold and silver, and if you miss this opportunity, you will regret it for a lifetime"
"Hey, don't leave in the afterlife......"
The people around looked at Liu Xiu and said with great enthusiasm.
Liu Xiu didn't dare to stay longer, so he walked away quickly, estimating that if he stayed for a while, he would have to 'explain' here.
"The eldest lady of the Shi family has come out, and a new round of recruitment has begun"
"I don't know if she can find a satisfactory husband this time......"
Just when Liu Xiu pulled away, there was a shout from the crowd, so Liu Xiu subconsciously stopped and looked at the platform, wanting to see what the eldest lady of the Shi family who has a mine at home looks like, and has not found a satisfactory husband for several years, how high is that vision?
Then Liu Xiu saw the so-called eldest lady of the Shi family, and her eyes immediately burst out, and she secretly said No wonder she couldn't find a satisfactory husband even if she had a mine at home.
On that platform, the eldest lady of the Shi family stood on it, and she was wearing gold and silver, and she suddenly had a 'terrifying' majesty, which was a rare figure of more than one meter and eight meters in size among women, but coupled with the estimated weight of five hundred catties, how could it be a horror!
Witnessing the eldest lady of the Shi family, Liu Xiuxin said that it is no wonder that she can't recruit a satisfactory husband, that physique, who can withstand it in ordinary people, and it is life-threatening to accidentally turn over and press it when you sleep at night.
However, Liu Xiu also felt that the woman was strange and pitiful, she couldn't marry because she was too fat in her good years, and she could feel how depressed she was in her heart from the sadness revealed in her eyes that she was trying to open.
"Sure enough, not anyone's 'eldest lady' is a beautiful woman...... Liu Xiu said secretly in her heart.
Although he had some sympathy for the eldest lady of the Shi family, there was nothing he could do to help with this kind of thing.
After a glance, Liu Xiu was about to leave, but the next moment he was trembling, he found that the eldest lady of the Shi family on the stage looked at him, and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Dad, mother, come on, I see a satisfied person, it's him, catch him for me, I'm going to enter the cave room today!" I saw that the eldest lady of the Shi family on the stage stretched out her hand and pointed at Liu Xiu, who was extremely excited, with a happy expression on her face that she was about to faint.
Well, it would be difficult for her to make such an expression on her fat ball-shaped face.
At this time, Liu Xiu found that the people around him automatically dispersed and looked at him gloatingly, and found that a large group of people dressed in black outside surrounded him, and immediately gasped.
I sympathized with her just now, but I don't deserve sympathy at all.
didn't say anything, the soles of his feet were anointed, Liu Xiu suddenly fled, I just looked at it strangely, and I actually encountered such a terrifying thing.
Not to mention, the eldest lady of the Shi family has a good voice, if she can lose weight, she is estimated to be a potential stock.
Liu Xiu, who ran away, said in his heart......
