Chapter 357: Finding out the news
Holding a small burden of asking for pure karma in his hand, Ying Xuan walked leisurely on the streets of Huangquan Tiancheng like an idler, with a smile that did not fit his temperament on his cold face, and his eyes scanned around.
After leaving the inn, Shadow Void went to a few places that could be called shops, and chatted with the ghost boss here about Huangquan Heavenly City, and the small burden in his hand naturally lightened some weight.
However, after a few families, Shadow Void did know a lot about the situation here, but he hadn't asked anyone about how to get the death qi.
After passing a street corner, after a team of patrol guards walked by, Ying Xuan saw an old man in ordinary linen clothes set up a small stall to sell wine, the stall was not big, but the business was really good, and one or two of the four or five people in the past always went to buy a pot.
With an idea in his heart, Ying Xuan walked to the stall, glanced at the neatly arranged round pot on the main table, and smiled at the old man: "Brother, come to a pot." ”
The old man didn't look at the shadow, and while filling the guests in front of him with wine, he replied casually: "Okay, you can sit down for a while, and I will serve you wine immediately." ”
Ying Xuan looked at the two empty tables inside, one inside was clean, and the other outside had not been cleaned up, he didn't care, and sat directly at the table closest to him.
Looking at the old man's back, there was no aura of the spirit on his body, not even the slightest fluctuation of spiritual power. Shadow Void smiled slightly, looking around aimlessly.
"Guest, the wine is here. ”
Soon, the old man held a rag in one hand and a plate in the other, wiped the table casually, pinched the wine bowl and wine jug casually, and put the plate in front of Ying Xuan with his right hand, hehe smiled.
Ying Xuan looked at the plate in front of him, a pot of wine, a wine bowl, a pair of chopsticks, and a plate of dark side dishes.
"Thank you, brother. ”
Thanking the old man, Ying Xuan picked up the flask and poured a bowl of wine, the wine was a little cloudy, the color was yellowish, and the smell was a little heavy, naturally it could not be compared with the fine wine stored in the Pure Karma Ring.
But Ying Xuan didn't mind, and after seeing it, he took a sip gently.
His brow furrowed slightly.
Sure enough, it's not like that!
The old man put the wine pot and bowl on the table into the large vat on the side, and when he turned around, he frowned a little after drinking, smiled warmly, and said, "The guest officer is a student, it's the first time to come to Tiancheng, right?"
Ying Xuan put down the wine bowl and nodded, exhaled and said, "Yes, brother, I have only been here for a short time, and I have only heard of this place before, but this is the first time I have seen it." ”
The old man saw that there were no guests at this time, so he sat on the bench next to Yingxu generously, and chatted: "The wine here tastes like this, after all, it is not in the world, if you are less angry, the taste will be stranger, but the things here are very tight, don't mind the guest officer." ”
Shadow smiled and said, "How can it be, brother, it's not bad to have wine to drink in this kind of place." Look at the good face of the old brother, he doesn't look like a ghost here, why do you sell wine here?"
The old man's eyes showed helplessness, sighed lightly, and said: "Old man, I have been selling wine in this heavenly city for some years. ”
Hearing this, Ying Xuyan's expression suddenly became a little solemn, and he exclaimed slightly: "This place is so dangerous!"
The old man smiled, stretched out his hand to the center of the city, and then said softly, "Look there, guest officer." ”
Shadow Void looked in the direction of the old man's finger, and it was the tower.
"That tower is the symbol of this Heavenly City, called Huangquan Tower, most of the people who enter the Heavenly City from the outside, they go to the Huangquan Tower, but in the end, there are very few people who can do nothing. ”
Seeing this, Ying Xuan took another sip of the wine bowl, frowned and asked, "Why is this? Could it be that there are some rare treasures in that Yellow Spring Tower?"
The old man's dim eyes flashed with a touch of heat, and he said in a deep voice: "It is rumored that the top of the Huangquan Pagoda hides dead air, and only those who have the top can get it. However, the Heavenly City Lord never said that the rumors were true, but under the desire of the people, the rumors were the facts, after all, no one had ever gone up to it so far. ”
Shadow Xuan looked suddenly enlightened, and said to himself, "I see. ”
"Alas, I won't hide it from my brother, I came to Huangquan Heavenly City this time, and I also came for that dead air. I heard from the outside world that I could get dead here, but after entering the city, I was like a headless fly, and I didn't know where to look for it. ”
When the old man heard that Ying Xuan was also for death, he smiled helplessly and persuaded: "Guest officer, the old man sees that you are young and has a lot of fate with me, so I advise you to leave here as soon as possible, that Huangquan Pagoda can't go, and even if you go and go through a lot of hardships to reach the top, you may not get death." These days, there are many guests in Tiancheng, all of whom are going to Huangquan Tower, and they will experience a fight before entering the tower, not to mention after entering the tower, guest officer, this is Huangquan Tiancheng. ”
After listening to the old man's words quietly, Ying Xuan continued a bowl of wine, and then put the wine jug in front of the old man, without saying anything, with persistence in his eyes.
The old man was even more helpless when he saw this, he exhaled a long old breath, and said softly: "About these days, there will be a ring competition under the Huangquan Tower, and there are no rules, people who want to enter the tower, go to the ring together, how many people can enter, only half of them can enter, and the rest is to lose their lives, as for after entering the tower, that is their own way, everyone should be different." ”
"Thank you, brother, I'm just understanding first, I'm seriously considering whether to go or not. Although this wine tastes a little strange, I will get used to it after a few sips. ”
Shadow Void thanked the old man and smiled.
The old man waved his hand, and said with some melancholy: "Old man, I still hope that you can leave this place and sell wine in the Heavenly City for so many years, and every bloody wind is in your eyes, and the desires of the year have long been wiped out." ”
Seeing this, Ying Xuan hesitated for a while and said, "Then the old brother wants to leave this place?"
"Boss, have a pot of wine. ”
As soon as the words fell, an old man in white who looked even older walked on the street, but his temperament looked as sharp as Qingfeng.
When the old man saw that there was a guest, he smiled bitterly: "Where can you go if you leave, the world is big, and where is home." ”
With that, the old man got up and fetched wine for the old man in white.
Shadow looked at the wine jug on the table and the half bowl of residual wine in his hand, left some silver, got up and left the wine stall.
However, when he passed the old man in white, he glanced at him, and the spiritual power around the two of them was agitated, but only for a moment, and then the shadow left in a hurry.
The old man in white took the wine jug handed to him by the old man and asked indifferently, "Boss, was that person also a guest from outside just now?"
When the old man heard this, he glanced back at the chopsticks and side dishes that had never been touched by Yingxu, and said with a warm smile: "Yes, I haven't been in Tiancheng for a long time, and I am not familiar with life." ”
The old man in white hummed, paid the money, and left leisurely.
After a few more turns on the road, and after making sure that no one was following him, Shadow Void returned to the inn.
told all the news that his party had gotten, and then swallowed the jar of wine that Jingye kept for him, and he was refreshed.
Gu Rongsheng also realized that this product was originally going to find out the news when Ying Xuan spoke, so he dispelled the idea of looking for him.
After the shadow slowed down for a while, Jingye also thought for a long time, and then said softly: "It seems that this Huangquan Pagoda has to enter, and it is not so easy to get the death qi." We don't have any acquaintances here, and we can't see the city lord, so the only way is to participate in the ring and enter the Huangquan Pagoda to the top. If there is death on the top floor, it would be good, but if not, we should already know about it by then, so I can make some deals with the city lord. ”
Jingye believed that the owner of the wine stall said something about the Huangquan Tower, as for the rest, it didn't matter whether he believed it or not, and for the boss himself, he felt that it shouldn't be too simple, but he only came to Huangquan Heavenly City to ask for one thing, and he didn't want to provoke any other things, so he didn't think much about it.
He remembered that after his father took him to Huangquan Heavenly City, there were many enemies in front of him, including guards wearing armor, strange beasts, and spirits floating in the air.
"Young master, if you want to enter the Huangquan Tower, then you will have to fight with these obscure breaths around you, the old man in white just now has a breath like a front, and his cultivation is probably not under the old slave, this trip, I can't go!"
After thinking about it, Ying Xuan told himself that he couldn't go to the Yellow Spring Tower, and he had seen the old man in white just now, and he could feel the strength of the old man just by looking at him.
If there are these people all around, it is really too dangerous to rely on the current cultivation of pure karma!
Gu Rongsheng on the side also echoed: "Yes, young master, the shadow of death likes to calculate the most, since he feels that this matter is wrong, it is better for us to observe outside and find other ways." ”
Jingye looked at the two of them and knew that they were worried that something would happen to them, but judging from the news of the shadow and void, at present, in addition to this method, the only way to find the city lord is to make an offer, but he is not as famous as his father, and people may not look down on him. To do business, you have to let others see your ability, so that it is easy to cooperate successfully.
"Don't be too nervous, two uncles, I didn't say I'll go now, I'll talk about it when the ring starts, and then I'll go and see who people are, and then make plans." It's also a lot of trouble for Uncle Ying to go out these days, the silver is enough, but don't eat the things nearby, Huangquan Tiancheng is extremely dangerous, although it looks like nothing now, but it will change after the night is not guaranteed. ”
With a warm smile, Jingye said to the two servants who were worried about his recklessness, saying that he would not be impulsive, which made the two sit relaxed.
However, when the words of the pure industry were backward, the silent Huangzhonglou said at this time: "It's okay, young master, when the time comes, the old slave will go for you, it's not so troublesome!"
