Chapter 35: The City Lord
"City Lord, the three of them are all open source cultivators, but that beautiful young man is a little special, although he is an open source cultivator, the light emitted by the realm measuring stone is even more dazzling than the ordinary Star Attraction Realm," the old butler stood aside and said to the Ge City Lord who was sitting on the sandalwood chair.
"Let's take them to this city for two days first, and then take the opportunity to send those two teenagers away," Lord Ge didn't want to hurt the lives of Ye Xin and Ran Chao, and instructed the old butler.
"Is the city lord really going to take this step?" the old butler frowned, not wanting the city lord to do this.
"My father-in-law treats me like a parent and teaches me how to behave, I have to avenge this revenge" Ge Xiaosheng put his hands on the back of the chair, looking at the beautiful scenery outside the house with his eyes, but he felt bored.
"But he is a rebel who led the rebellion," the old butler was a little out of shape, his throat was a little hoarse, and he lost his former breezy demeanor.
"Butler, don't say it, it's been so hard for so many years" Ge Xiaosheng looked at the old housekeeper beside him, his eyes showed gratitude, and he spoke calmly, with a smile on his tough face like a knife.
The old butler of the "City Lord ......" has followed Ge Xiaosheng for so many years and knows his character very well, and the decision he made at this moment is difficult to change.
"Loyalty and righteousness, I am only loyal to the Marquis of Dingyuan in the previous generation, and righteousness is to my father-in-law" Ge Xiaosheng's eyes deepened, and he stood up with his hands on the back of the chair.
"Let's go down," Ge Xiaosheng said to the old butler.
"Yes," the old man stepped back.
"Have the two little brothers ever been comfortable?" looked at the two teenagers who walked into his cousin, Ge Xiaosheng asked with a smile.
"It's so good, I haven't enjoyed it like this for a long time," Ran Chao responded with a smile.
"Thank you city lord" Ye Xin, who had already changed into a strong suit, his long hair was scattered and tied behind him casually, and his delicate face and immaturity that had not been deeply involved in the world looked even more harmless to humans and animals, and he bowed to Ge Xiaosheng.
"Haha, Xiaoyou is polite. Have you ever visited this Extended Desert City?" Ge Xiaosheng asked.
"I was afraid that I could still get a lot of income by walking around the city before," Ran Chao quipped.
"This little friend is really interesting, so how about I take two little friends for a walk," Ge Xiaosheng said with a smile.
Only Ye Xin didn't quite understand why he could have an income.
"Just treat us like little beggars, begging for food," Ran Chao climbed Ye Xin's shoulder and said with a smile.
"It's the first time that my brother has come out of the tribe to practice, and many of them don't know," Ran Chao explained to Ge Xiaosheng.
"The Xiaoyou tribe can be established in this wilderness, but it is not simple" Ge Xiaosheng did not doubt it, because the wilderness is so big, there are indeed many large and small tribes on the edge of the human city. Ye Xin is young, and it is normal that he has not been out of the ministry, and there are also teenagers who come out of the tribe every year to train.
"But they can barely survive," Ye Xin said, if they knew that their tribe was from the Eastern Wilderness, they didn't know what their expression would be.
......
On the street, Ge Xiaosheng led the way for Ye Xin and the others, introducing the customs and customs of this place. Ran Chao was fine, but Ye Xin on the side was full of curiosity as his eyes moved with Ge Xiaosheng's fingers.
"This Yanhuang City has existed for more than 2,000 years, and it was established since the founding of the Chu State, and I am already the twenty-third generation of the city lord," Ge Xiaosheng walked on the street and explained carefully to Ye Xin and the others.
The people in the city were all eagerly greeting the city lord, Ge Xiaosheng responded with a smile, not thinking of the three dirty little beggars with Ye Xin, who was clean at the moment, because of the city lord, the eyes that looked at the two were also very friendly.
"The two little brothers must be hungry" After lunch, Ye Xin was still dizzying, like restaurants of all shapes, a variety of small shops, and attics selling medicines. It's all Ye Xin has never seen before.
"Little brother, do you want a bunch of them?" a lean man walked by, saw Ye Xin's gaze, asked with a smile, and from time to time pulled down the things inserted in the withered straw bale.
"What is this!?" Ye Xin looked at the red light, crystal like jade, strings of things inserted in the withered straw bundles, reached out and touched it, and asked curiously.
"This is a sugar gourd made of jade hawthorn that blooms and bears fruit every twenty years," the hawker patiently explained.
"Give this little brother a string," the city lord laughed, pulling out a piece of broken silver. There was no intention of laughing at Ye Xin.
"Since it was brought by the city lord, I will invite this string" The vendor picked the most bright red string and handed it to Ye Xin, "The little brother took it."
"It's not easy in this city, this bit of broken silver is put away," Ge Xiaosheng handed the silver to the vendor and motioned for him to put it away.
"This is a lot of silver, I'll give this brother another string," he said, and the vendor took down a string and handed it to Ran Chao.
"I wish the two little brothers a good time in this Yanhuang City," he said, and the vendor chewed on a withered grass and left with a gourd skewer on his shoulder.
"Presumably the little brother must be hungry, I'll take the two of you to taste the characteristics of our Yanhuang City" Ye Xin and the three of them came to a relatively simple market, two large cauldrons were set up in front of the store, the marinade in it was boiling, the large pieces of meat were sauce-colored, gurgling and steaming, and the aroma was compelling.
Walking into it, some of the old tables were polished by middle-aged women who were both shopkeepers and juniors, and they were shiny with oil.
"This is not made of jade hawthorn at all, it is not as good as the wild hawthorn I ate in the tribe" Ye Xin looked at the only remaining wooden stick and muttered dissatisfiedly.
"Haha......" Ge Xiaosheng and Ran Chao laughed.
"If it's really made of jade hawthorn, there will be a demon" Ran Chao looked at the human city with a deflated face, compared with Ye Xin, who was strategizing everything in the Heavenly Desolate Forest and fighting like an ancient heaven-level demon beast cub, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
"Boss, the old rule is to have three servings" Ge Xiaosheng held one hand on the shiny tabletop, and with the other hand, he took out the upside-down white bowl on the table and poured it full of tea and handed it to Ye Xin and the others, without the city lord's shelf at all.
"Haole" said, the proprietress skillfully used a two-clawed iron hook to take out the meat from the marinade, and after a while, three large bowls of steaming, fragrant and oily meat were served, which was decorated with a kind of local characteristics of a kind of blue coriander to season, which made people appetite, and Ran Chao began to drool without anger.
"It's a local chowder," Ge Xiaosheng explained as he took out his chopsticks and stirred them.
Ye Xin and the others also learned from Ge Xiaosheng in a good way, so that coriander and chowder were fully combined. Although the bowl is not large, there are many kinds of it, including the heart, lungs, and large intestines of wild beasts...... It's got it all.
"I'll start first" Ran Chao couldn't wait, picked up a piece of fat intestine stacked into small pieces and fed it to his mouth, and suddenly the liquid overflowed, and he almost dissolved his tongue.
"It's rare for the city lord to bring friends today," said the proprietress with a pot of wild beef head meat and warmly entertained Ye Xin.
"This is the city lord, you" The proprietress then gave a bowl of coriander and put it in front of Ge Xiaosheng's table, as if it had just been cleaned, and there were crystal water droplets.
"Can't you think that Lord Gecheng likes to eat this spicy dish?" Ye Xin raised his head and drank a mouthful of soup, watched Ge Xiaosheng eat a small half of the chowder, poured a bowl of coriander into it and mixed well, the meat and coriander were almost half each.
"This is called bialian, it's interesting to mix it with this chowder," he said, Ge Xiaosheng took a big bowl and took a big bite into his mouth, very satisfied.
The three of them lowered their heads and pulled, their appearances were the same, and they saw the bottom of the bowl after a while.
"You three are really ......," the proprietress scoffed.
Ge Xiaosheng rolled up his sleeves and tore off a large piece of the beef head meat on the table and put it into his mouth, not to mention Ran Chao, who had already harmed the meat in the basin. Ye Xin also didn't show weakness, tearing off a piece of the boss with bulging cheeks, which was completely inconsistent with the image of a white young man.
"Two more pots of rice wine," the city lord said to the proprietress with oil stains on his mouth and hand, but he didn't care.
After a while, he sent it up and said, "This is my home-brewed rice wine, the two little brothers are still young, don't drink too much."
"When I was in the tribe, I didn't drink less," Ye Xin replied with a smile, everyone is a monk, and their physique is stronger than ordinary people, so it is naturally not easy to get drunk.
Between the staggered plans, Ye Xin and the three of them talked from Yanhuang City to Zhongzhou, the holy land of monks, and from ancient legends to cultivation, until in the evening, the pine wax lamp taken out by the proprietress was almost burned out. Ge Xiaosheng took out the silver and put it on the table that was a little messy, and beckoned the proprietress who was preparing to close the stall on the side before walking to the city lord's mansion.
In the deserted streets, the people of the city have rested, and only the small insects chirp. The three of them walked on the quaint and wide stone road, still laughing and talking.
......
"Ye Xin's cooking skills are not bad, in the Heavenly Desolate Forest, not only is his combat power amazing, but most of the food is also handled by him," Ran Chao was slightly drunk and said with a smile.
"I didn't expect Brother Ye to be so powerful" Through the understanding just now, Ge Xiaosheng changed his words and said to Ye Xin.
"In the past, the tribe was bored and blindly learned, and they could barely enter it," Ye Xin replied.
"The taste is really good," Ran Chao was very sure.
"Then Brother Ye must show his hands," Ge Xiaosheng smiled.
"Then it will be ugly another day" Ye Xin replied with a smile and did not refuse.
After a day of getting along, Ye Xin knew that Ge Xiaosheng was by no means pretending, and the respect of the people was not groundless. I can't help but feel good.
Step into the Castle Lord's Mansion.
"Where have you been!" Chu Yu asked, sitting on top of his chair, obviously a little angry.
"I went out with Lord Gecheng to see Yanhuang City," Ran Chao replied with a smile.
"Hmph, you didn't call me, and ran out secretly" Chu Yu tilted his head to the side, revealing a little woman's posture, his face full of unhappiness.
"Let's go again tomorrow," Ye Xin came out to play the round.
"Forget it" Chu Yu's face turned cold and got up to leave.
Ye Xin stood and touched his nose, so he was not embarrassed.
"It's not too early, let's rest," Ge Xiaosheng said, and instructed the housekeeper on the side to take Ye Xin down......
In the past three days, Ye Xin, Ran Chao and Chu Yu walked down the street with the servant named Xiaohui in front of the screen a few days ago. Because he really didn't have any money, Ye Xin took out a small piece of the ancient medicine he had eaten and went to the most luxurious pharmacy in the city, and the shopkeepers were all alarmed. While hating and regretting that most of the ancient medicine that was so cherished was eaten by rat demon beasts, he also asked Ye Xin to come to his store next time.
Ye Xin was holding a heavy bag of spirit crystals, a few pieces of silver, but the shopkeeper heard that Ye Xin wanted to give them at will.
After Chu Yu's explanation, Ye Xin knew the role of the spirit crystal, which could be described as a divine object among the monks in this heavenly desolation where spiritual energy was scarce. However, after Ye Xin looked at it carefully, he suddenly realized that he had a familiar feeling, wasn't this what he had dug in the east of the tribe a few years ago, and it was more refined. ......
