Chapter 45: A Windfall

In fact, Zhang Tianyu is wearing a robe and a hair crown is not too outstanding in this era, after all, many monks like to dress up in ancient costumes, so it has set off a retro style among mortals, and this style can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys, but his robe is too old, especially in the hot summer, even if he wears ancient costumes, it must be the latest short-sleeved, if he wears such a outfit and walks in the crowd, it must be very eye-catching.

When the businessman was preparing clothes for them, he considered that after all, they didn't have ID cards, so it was better not to be too ostentatious, so when choosing clothes, they chose the most popular ordinary T-shirt and long pants, and after the two changed, they looked at each other, and Fu Yi smiled: "It's not bad." ”

When the merchant heard this, he hurriedly smiled and said, "It's good that you are satisfied." ”

As he spoke, the merchant took out another hat, pointed at Suzaku and said, "It's good to avoid this, it's too ostentatious." ”

Fu Yi hurriedly took it and discussed it with Suzaku for a while, and Suzaku got into the hat with great dissatisfaction.

At this time, Chenlu also changed her clothes and walked out, which was the most ordinary black dress.

The businessman never expected that this is the most popular this year, but in fact it is the worst street dress, wearing it on her body is so flawless, the whole person's figure is set off beyond words, especially with that peerless face, it is even more beautiful, as if this dress was born for her.

Seeing the three men staring at him like this, Chenlu couldn't help but say angrily: "Hey, you guys!"

"Hehe......" the three of them let out an embarrassed laugh at the same time.

"Uncle, do you have clothes that look a little bit, won't this be too ostentatious? Fu Yi hurriedly shifted his gaze and complained to the merchant.

The businessman scratched his head helplessly, this is really wronged him, this went around the mall, and the most people wore this long skirt, and no one wore it without looking short and ugly, who had ever wanted to change someone, there would be such an effect, it should really be that sentence: only the right one is the best.

"That's it, let's go. Zhang Tianyu said with a smile.

The merchant hurriedly chimed in: "Yes, let's go, the city gate will be closed after dark, and it will be more troublesome to enter the city again when the time comes." ”

So the group of four hurriedly rushed to Jiu'an City.

Jiu'an City as an ancient city, its city gate is quite tall, the city gate is carved with "Jiu'an West Gate" four big characters, the same tall city wall extends to both sides, Fu Yi couldn't help laughing: "What is the use of this city wall, that is, to stop ordinary people, if the city gate is closed and jumped, it will be over, what is there to be nervous."

When the merchant heard Fu Yi say this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Shangxian is wrong, this city gate and city wall are actually not used by the human race more than a thousand years ago, and these are all built by the demon race in front of him, specifically to deal with cultivators like you." ”

"Oh?" When Zhang Tianyu heard this, he immediately became interested in his words, and hurriedly smiled: "Isn't there any mystery about this city gate and city wall?"

The merchant nodded and said, "Time is running out, I'll explain it slowly to a few people when I enter the city." ”

So the four of them hurriedly walked a few steps, and entered Jiu'an City before closing the city gate, and then the merchant led them into an inconspicuous alley, and kept turning left and right, at first their attention was mainly focused on the new building, and the various lights that kept on as the sky became darker, but when they lost interest in these things, they found that they were still on their way.

So Fu Yi began to complain, "Where are we going?"

The merchant smiled and said, "My family." ”

"Why do you want to go to your house?" said Fu Yi.

The merchant smiled bitterly and said: "The immortals don't know, this Jiu'an City will be completely forbidden at ten o'clock every night, and all the human races must stay at home. ”

Zhang Tianyu asked, "Is it convenient at the uncle's house?"

When the merchant heard this, he was immediately embarrassed and said, "As long as a few people don't dislike it......"

"How far is it?" asked Fu Yi.

"This is it!" replied the merchant hurriedly.

After turning a corner, the uncle led them into a dilapidated neighborhood, and then led them up to the third floor of the second unit, took out a key from his purse, and opened the door of the west house.

"Huh!" After walking into the house, Fu Yi couldn't help but exclaim, but the words behind him were held back, after all, they still had to disturb others.

"It's really small, only more than thirty square meters......" The merchant was suddenly embarrassed, and his voice became lower and lower, and he also knew that it was obviously not suitable for four adults to live in a house like this.

Zhang Tianyu smiled and said, "It's not in the way, we usually meditate and practice at night, which is enough." ”

Fu Yi was just a little more straightforward, but he didn't have any malice, and hurriedly echoed: "Yes, for us, this place is already very big. ”

"BIU!" At that moment, the Suzaku in the hat chirped and opened the top of the hat to reveal a small head.

The merchant panicked, hurriedly closed the door, and then beckoned the three of them to sit on the sofa, the merchant felt that they always called themselves uncle a little awkward, so they asked him to call him Lao Wang, they were not hypocritical, and at the same time after introducing themselves, the merchant began a long conversation at the request of Fu Yi and others......

This era is not as complicated as they imagined, the scientific and technological civilization of a thousand years ago, except for some basic architectural things and some residual luxury tools that only the powerful and rich have the right to use, has been almost completely destroyed by the demons, so that the civilization of the human race directly fell back to the era of the dynasty again, the demons are the former kings, the lackeys are just like the officials of the year, and the people are naturally still the people.

The only difference is that there was only one king at that time, but there are hundreds of thousands of kings today, so the people in this era are more miserable than ever.

Salt is a necessity for the survival of the human race, after the demons found this important information, they controlled the salt tightly, and then used the salt to exchange it for everything they needed, the human race will work harder in order to survive, and they will get more, which is far better than violently persecuting them.

Salt can only be bought from the hands of the demons, so salt is very expensive, so expensive that it is unimaginable, just like Lao Wang, who has worked tirelessly all day long, fighting in the wind and rain for most of his life, and 90% of the money he earns is used to buy salt, and the remaining 10% is all the expenses on weekdays plus such a big house now, and of course, there is a little savings, which is used to marry his wife.

That's why Lao Wang appeared on that trail without any safety guarantee, and it can even be said to be extremely dangerous, if he hadn't met Fu Yi today, I'm afraid his fate would be the same as those dead peers.

Of course, the three of them never thought that the original methods of the demon race to rule the human race were so simple and rude, but fortunately, they are all monks in the Scattered Immortal Realm now, and the art of Bigu is also a great achievement, which is not a problem for them.

"Then what kind of business are you doing?" Fu Yi wondered.

Lao Wang smiled bitterly and said: "Hey, in fact, I have been a mason all my life, and now I am almost fifty years old and have not saved enough money to marry a wife, so this time, under the encouragement of those two fellow villagers, I took out all the money and took the salt, and sent it to Qingfeng County, which is a hundred miles away, and the difference in price this trip is enough for me to marry a wife, but I didn't expect to meet those bandits for the first time, fortunately, a few arrived in time, otherwise I would be the same as them." ”

"Oh...... It turns out that you took out a small packet of things from the two of them's bags, and it was salt......" Fu Yi suddenly realized.

"En......" Lao Wang thought that they hadn't noticed his small movements, but now that Fu Yi said it, his face suddenly turned red, and he didn't know how embarrassed it was.

Zhang Tianyu smiled and said: "But this is also a bittersweet one, you only need to sell all this salt, and the money to marry a wife is enough." ”

Lao Wang hurriedly said: "Actually, the two of them are a little more than me, I only need to sell half of it now to marry a wife, and I will keep a little more for the usual expenses, and if the rest is not disliked, I will give it to you." ”

Chenlu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Lao Wang, you don't need to be polite, we don't need this thing." ”

Lao Wang shook his head and said: "No, no, no, you can use it, don't underestimate this third, this third is a huge amount of money, enough for the two of you to marry a wife, if you save some flowers, it will be enough for you to spend a lifetime." ”

As soon as Lao Wang's words came out, Fu Yi and Zhang Tianyu were suddenly embarrassed, and Zhang Tianyu hurriedly said: "Lao Wang, we really don't need it, just ask you to take it when you need it." ”

Lao Wang then put his mind at ease, even if they said that they needed to take it, they would definitely not be greedy for his windfall, he said before that he cut out a part, in fact, he is also quite painful, but this person who has lived for most of his life, how can he not understand the truth that the husband is not guilty, and he is guilty, at present, these young people have no concept of money at first sight, but in the future, they understand that in the future, if they are embarrassed to ask him for it, they will give it to him directly...... That's a problem.

"By the way, what's the matter with the city walls and gates?" asked Chenlu.

Lao Wang hurriedly replied: "The demon clan has a total of nine warehouses for storing salt, one of which is in this Jiu'an City, the city gate and the city wall are not mortal, the city gate is the only passage that can enter and exit, once the city gate is closed, it will be as solid as the mountain protection array of those immortal cultivation sects, so if we wait for the city gate to close and want to come in again, it depends on the mood of the demon guards......"

Lao Wang is used to sleeping naked, but now there are guests, and there are girls among the guests, so Lao Wang simply didn't sleep all night, and an uncle who was nearly fifty years old chatted with three energetic young people all night.
