Chapter 150: Touching Porcelain
Hu Xiangling didn't get out of the carriage, but lifted the entire curtain. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Is this Tianshui City? It's magnificent! Her eyes were full of yearning, and she exclaimed: "It's so majestic!" ”
Although Zhou Ning was also amazed, he was not as excited as Hu Xiangling.
The carriage slowed down, and when it passed the guards guarding the city, the other party only glanced at them, and did not stop them.
Zhou Ning also glanced around these people slightly, only to find that these people were all first-order ghost soldiers.
He didn't check the identities of the people who entered the city, but sent a dozen ghost soldiers to guard here, what is this for?
The carriage drove gently past the city gates. Uncle Fu breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "I'm scared to death." On this day, Shuicheng is really magnificent, and more than a dozen immortals are actually guarding the city gate here. ”
Hu Xiangling said casually: "Uncle Fu, you don't understand this!" Tianshui City is close to the Death Stage, and it is at the junction with the Soul Refining Valley, if there is no cultivator guarding the city here, maybe there will be that lonely soul and wild ghost passing through here, and it is often the former Life Platform and the Soul Refining Valley to cultivate! ”
Zhou Ning was stunned in his heart, and asked quietly, "Won't it?" Lonely ghosts are so bold? ”
In fact, he didn't understand anything about the new world. Originally, I thought that I would be transported to a world full of gloomy ghosts, but I never thought that the sun was shining here, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, and there was no eerie atmosphere in the underworld at all.
finally heard Hu Xiangling say something that interested him, and he naturally didn't want to sink this topic down.
Hu Xiangling didn't think much about it, and while gluing his eyes to the signboards of the shops on the left and right, he replied briskly: "Why not." As long as he breaks into the rebirth platform, no matter how much evil he has done before, he can go unpunished and directly enter reincarnation. There are thousands of evil people in the world, and even a good old man like my mother is afraid that she will suffer from prison after death, so she told me to recite the Sutra of Death a few more times, and burn more paper money for her to make some money. ”
As she spoke, she sighed again: "Hey, I miss my mother." I don't know if she was reincarnated into that family at this time, whether she had good luck in this life and found a body that could cultivate. ”
Zhou Ning was surprised in his heart, and when he heard Hu Xiangling divert the topic, he pretended to be profound and said, "What you said also makes sense." It's the Valley of Soul Refining, and it's also a place where many lonely souls and wild ghosts yearn for......"
What he said was a little vague, almost changing Hu Xiangling's words.
But I heard Hu Xiangling deeply agree: "That's it! finally voted for a qualified good tire, and I was really unwilling to start over like this. However, it was also the Hades who was too harsh. Why are the children of those big families able to enter the Soul Refining Valley to reunite their souls after they die, while we, ordinary people, have to honestly start from scratch? I am not convinced ......"
was interrupted by Uncle Fu all of a sudden: "Okay, Miss! You also told me not to talk too much, why don't you pay attention to yourself! We're in the city, how can we criticize the Lord of the Dead at will! Besides, Miss is no longer a common man. The Hu family is also a big family! ”
Hu Xiangling also suddenly realized that he had said too much, so he stuck out his tongue and retracted back into the carriage.
Zhou Ning secretly paid attention to it and wrote down the name of the Immortal Monarch.
The carriage turned another corner, and Uncle Fu saw a few idlers standing in the corner of the roadside, so he stepped forward to inquire about the address of the Hu family.
One of the tall and strong men walked up with a smile, nodded at Zhou Ning and said, "Is it the first time for the Immortal Master to come to Tianshui City?" ”
Zhou Ning nodded vaguely, and then threw a Netherstone over.
The idle man's eyes lit up, and after taking the Netherstone stone, he said again and again: "Immortal Master, the little one's surname is Yuan, and he ranks third in the family, and the Immortal Master can be called the little Yuan San." The Hu family is in the inner city. Immortal Master, please come with me. ”
Uncle Fu didn't feel uncomfortable being ignored, shook the whip lightly, and followed behind the man.
Yuan San is also a ghost soldier, but his skills are deeper than Hu Xiangling. He condensed the ghost qi and blessed his feet, although the whole person was still striding forward, but each step was a few feet away, and he was unhurried enough to lead the carriage behind.
Probably about to enter the inner city to see the Hu family, Hu Xiangling was a little nervous, but not as lively as usual. She lifted the corner of the curtain, but lost the interest in looking at the street scene.
On the contrary, Zhou Ning carefully observed everything around him: the street was full of traffic, and it was full of flowers. Most pedestrians wear long shirts and walk close to both sides of the road. The proportion of cultivators among the pedestrians is not very large, and it would be good to have one out of ten. But most of them are the same as the original three, with a detached temperament, and even ordinary people can easily distinguish them. In the middle aisle are all kinds of ox carts, donkey carts and horse-drawn carts. This opened the eyes of Zhou Ning, who is accustomed to the bustling city.
After driving for more than half an hour, Yuan San stopped at a wall with no roof in sight.
"Let's go into the inner city." Yuan San turned his head and said to Zhou Ning.
Zhou Ning nodded with a flat face, but his eyes did not blink, staring closely at Yuan San's movements.
Yuan San didn't know that Zhou Ning was secretly learning his magic trick, and naturally after flipping in the air a few times, he saw that countless golden runes suddenly suspended on the wall that was still gray and abrupt. The runes resonated with the air, and after a slight shock, a stone gate suddenly appeared in front of him.
"This immortal master, only cultivators can enter the inner door." Yuan San saw Zhou Ning sitting in the car and didn't move, so he reminded him politely.
Only cultivators can enter, so neither Uncle Fu nor this carriage can enter.
Zhou Ning turned around, took a cloth bag from the space, filled it with some silver taels and handed it to Uncle Fu.
"Don't sell the carriage. You buy a yard in this outer city, and the business of taking a taxi is also good. He said as he jumped out of the carriage.
Uncle Fu took the bag and was inexplicably moved. It's still a young lady's eyesight! Such a generous immortal master should meet one after another.
Hu Xiangling also jumped out of the carriage and was very moved when he heard the words.
"Uncle Fu, listen to Brother Zhou's words, let's stay in the outer city." She said a little sadly: "When I have a foothold in the Hu family, I will come out to see you." ”
Uncle Fu's eyes were red: "Well, miss, you have to take care of yourself." I'll wait here every day at noon, so I can tell you where I live. ”
Seeing that Hu Xiangling nodded, he turned to Zhou Ning and said, "Zhou ...... Immortal Master, please take care of my young lady. Uncle Fu...... Uncle Fu is outside to give you incense and burn paper every day......"
When Zhou Ning heard this, his back was cold, and he said no, and then quickly pulled Hu Xiangling and stepped towards the door.
As soon as they stepped into the door, the two of them felt that the spiritual platform was clear, and the whole person became refreshed.
"What a strong ghostly aura!" Hu Xiangling closed her eyes and said as if enjoying herself.
Zhou Ning was also very surprised. He originally thought that the ghost aura in the outer city of Tianshui City was already very strong. Unexpectedly, the ghost aura in the inner city is more abundant than that in the outer city. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh even more: reincarnation is really a technical job. Just like Yuan San, in such a rich environment, he is only a ghost soldier after cultivating for thirty or forty years. If the Land of Exile also has such a strong ghost aura, wouldn't the Ghost King have to run all over the ground?
Yuan San followed Zhou Ning into the door, and when he heard Hu Xiangling sigh like this at this moment, he felt honored.
"Our Tianshui City is the closest city to the Soul Refining Valley, and the ghost qi is naturally full. This is only the edge of the inner city, and further north, the ghosts there are so thick that they can drip water! Yuan San said exaggeratedly.
Zhou Ning listened interestingly, but didn't ask any more.
Hu Xiangling remembered that he had something to do, so he interrupted him and said, "Where is the Hu family?" Also in the north? ”
Yuan San looked at Hu Xiangling with a smile and said, "Miss, the Hu family is also a big family in Tianshui City. Of course, I lived in the north. ”
In the inner city, the further north you go, the more ghostly you are, and the more expensive the location becomes.
Yuan San said that the Hu family was a big family in Tianshui City, and he didn't know how big it was. Zhou Ning thought as he walked, Hu Xiangling said that she was a maid, which proved that the male owner of the Hu family who had caused a romantic debt was unwilling to admit this private affair to the family.
Therefore, whether Hu Xiangling can successfully recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors is still an unpredictable thing.
The inner city of Tianshui City is full of green jade paving, and white jade is built on the platform. The streets are not only wide, but the houses on both sides are also orderly and neat.
Yuan San first led the two of them through the Fang City, and said as he walked: "The shops here are all government-run. No fakes are guaranteed. There is also a ghost market in the west, which is more lively, and the stalls in it are selling some loose repairs, lonely souls and wild ghosts or something. Although the asking price is very cheap, it is cheap and not good, and it often cheats people. Therefore, those who have money and no eyesight buy things in this government-run shop; If you have eyesight and no money, you can try your luck in the ghost market over there. Anyway, there are always one or two lucky ones who can pick up the leak every day! ”
Zhou Ning nodded. No one wants to buy a fake. But if you can buy a real thing with a very small amount of money, the pleasure is no less than a gamble. One or two genuine products are released every day in the ghost market, not to stimulate those who have the mentality of treasure hunting to come over and want to pick up cheap wrongdoers!
This kind of clumsy marketing method is really the same everywhere.
Zhou Ning: "Thank you for mentioning it." I just don't know if there are any inns around here? ”
Yuan San was surprised: "You want to stay in the guest house?" ”
It's all at the Hu family, don't you want to climb the relationship and stay?
Zhou Ning said: "Send my sister back to the Hu family, and I'll go to the inn to stay." When the time comes, I'll have to bother you to lead the way. ”
There is no navigation here, so it is necessary to find a guide.
The original three naturally full of mouths.
"Actually, I don't think you have to find an inn to stay in." He continued: "There are a lot of yards in the north of the city that can be rented. What cultivators want is to be pure, but in the inn, people come and go, it's too noisy. ”
Zhou Ning thought to himself: What I want is to be noisy.
"It's fine." He said tactfully, "I haven't decided whether I want to stay here for a long time." Let's stay at the inn for the time being. ”
Yuan San stopped lobbying at this time.
The group walked through a few more wide streets and came to the area where they lived. It was only half an hour, and Yuan San led the two of them to a high-gate mansion, and then turned to the two of them: "This is the Hu family." ”
Zhou Ning looked at it and saw an ancient mansion with a vermilion lacquer gate and glazed tiles erected in front of him. Directly above the vermilion lacquer gate, there is a golden plaque hanging upright, on which are written the two big characters of Hufu. On both sides of the gate, there are two stone lions. In front of the gate, the ninth-level jade steps made the entire mansion much taller.
Zhou Ning and the others stood at the foot of the jade steps, looking up at the gate of the Hu Mansion.
"It's really a wealthy family......" he joked Hu Xiangling: "A big family." ”
Hu Xiangling was happy and looking forward to it. She has not seen her father since she was born, but she has always been influenced by her mother's words and has great respect for her biological father. Now that she is about to meet her biological father, she can't help but become shy.
Because it was broad daylight, the vermilion door was open, and the porter inside saw someone pointing in front of the door, so he walked out and asked with a smile, "What is the matter with you?" ”
Hu Xiangling was a little timid and didn't dare to say anything.
Zhou Ning said for her: "We are here to find relatives." ”
After speaking, he pointed to Hu Xiangling: "This is the daughter of your mansion, and there is a token as evidence." ”
Hu Xiangling stepped forward with a twist and whispered, "I...... My name is Hu Xiangling, and I am the daughter of Hu Changqing. ”
The porter thought he had misheard: "You said you are our master's daughter?" Are you kidding? ”
Hu Xiangling's face turned white all of a sudden, and he took out a piece of jade pendant of a milky white magpie climbing the branch that he had brought with him: "What are you kidding!" I have a token! ”
The porter's face changed after seeing the jade pendant, and then said, "I'm a disciple, and I don't dare to accept anything from you." In this way, you give me the jade pendant, and I will take it in and ask the master, how about it? ”
Hu Xiangling nodded vigorously and handed over the jade pendant.
Menzi turned around and ran into the door, obviously frightened.
Yuan San also watched a lively play for free, thinking that he must see the ending. So Zhou Ning didn't speak, so he didn't urge, just stood lazily aside, waiting for the people inside to reply.
After a while, the door turned back again.
He trembled angrily, stood on the ninth-level jade step and smashed the jade pendant towards Hu Xiangling, and said disdainfully: "Where did the wild girl come from, with a piece of jade pendant that I don't know where I stole it, I dare to slander our master's innocence!" Shameless! ”
What the!
Hu Xiangling was like being struck by lightning, and the whole person was crumbling, if it wasn't for Zhou Ning to protect him, I was afraid that he would faint on the spot!
Yuan San was also surprised, he really didn't expect the Hu family to deny it.
"Even if you don't admit it, can't you talk back?" Zhou Ning stroked Hu Xiangling, who was almost paralyzed, turned his head and scolded the man angrily: "Why did you drop my sister's jade pendant!" ”
The man glanced at Zhou Ning contemptuously, didn't say a word, turned around and walked towards the door.
Zhou Ning was furious: "If you smashed someone's jade pendant, won't you pay for it?" ”
Even if Hu Fu doesn't want to recognize this family, there is no need to humiliate people like this! Hu Xiangling did something wrong again! The Hu family is really too deceitful!
Menzi turned around and looked at Zhou Ning in disgust: "What are you!" Dare to make a big noise in front of Hufumen! I don't know which stall to buy a fake that fools people, and I dare to make people pay for it? Do you want to touch porcelain? (To be continued.) )
