Chapter 50: East Harbor

But strange to say, the impression that this Donggang gave Bai Xuan was completely different from what he imagined, he thought that the streets would be full of Gray Sect disciples, but on the contrary, after walking in Donggang for most of the day, he didn't even meet a Gray Sect disciple.

In fact, Donggang doesn't look very bad, at least it's much better than Shimen Town, but if you compare Donggang with the lively and peaceful Red Flame Castle, it's too inferior, and it looks even more lifeless.

I don't know how long I walked, Zi Yan suddenly opened her mouth and whispered,

"Where did you find Bai Shushu when you wandered around like this, you see there is a tavern in front, and I happen to be hungry too, why don't we go there and inquire?"

Bai Xuan smiled,

"I think you're just hungry, aren't you?"

Zi Yan glared at Bai Xuandao,

"I've heard your stomach growling, don't say I'm hungry alone. ”

Bai Xuan knew that the more troublesome thing than encountering the Gray Sect was to raise the bar with Zi Yan, so he immediately lost the battle, shrugged his shoulders and said,

"Also, being dragged to a fight by someone early in the morning, can you not be hungry?"

Zi Yan didn't give up when she heard Bai Xuan, and finally choked herself, but now she really felt that she had done something wrong in this matter, so she had no choice but to sigh,

Straight follow Bai Xuan towards the tavern.

As its name suggests, the East Harbor is a city built around the harbor, and the East Continent is not actually a complete continent, from north to south, with continuous mountains in the middle, dividing the East Continent into two parts: east and west.

The mountains are majestic and towering, like a natural stone wall, and there is no possibility of climbing, so even people who have lived in the Eastern Continent all their lives may never have crossed this chasm and looked at the other side of the mountain.

And this huge stone wall, but there is a well-known gap, this gap has existed for nearly a thousand years, I don't know whether it is a natural formation, or manpower, in short, the gap has become the only way to connect the east and west, and coincidentally, this gap is in the East Port.

This also makes Donggang the most important link in the transportation link of the entire Eastern Continent, and the people who originally lived in the east can say something, after all, the power of the Gray Sect has spread far away from Shimen Town, just like Bai Xuan, who has been ferried from the East Flame Market to the East Port, and has never encountered any kind of investigation.

But if it was to go from the west to the east, the Gray Sect had always sent a large number of people to strictly investigate, and even made huge profits by paying their so-called "excise tax".

Many merchants had heard of the reputation of the East Flame Bazaar, and some people had come from all over the Soul Qi Continent from thousands of miles away, and whenever someone wanted to pass through the gap, the people of the Gray Sect would charge a "customs fee".

When these merchants have finished trading in the East Flame Market and are ready to leave the East Harbor and return to the west or beyond, the Gray Sect will collect another fee based on the money these merchants have earned in the East Flame Market.

Sometimes, in order to improve the interests of the greater one, those Gray Sect disciples will deliberately slow down the speed of investigation, making those waiting businessmen anxious, so that they will be willing to let them go by bribing them in private.

Bai Xuan listened to Yan Mu say these words, he couldn't believe that the Gray Sect would do things so shamelessly, but when he walked into the tavern, Bai Xuan saw that the tavern was full of people in different costumes, with anxious faces on their faces, and when large and small bags of goods were piled up next to them, Bai Xuan had no doubts about Yan Mu's words.

It is precisely because Donggang is a place with a high concentration of outsiders, and there is a strict investigation by the Gray Sect, so the people here will have a very low level of alertness, and the tavern shopkeeper not only did not recognize Bai Xuan and Zi Yan, but warmly entertained the two.

Bai Xuan ordered a few side dishes and a pot of hot tea, but Zi Yan asked for a pot of hot wine, and after ordering, Bai Xuan smiled bitterly at Zi Yan,

"Why did you drink at noon?"

Zi Yan said disapprerovingly,

"How can a person like you who only drinks tea and doesn't drink understand that the devil knows what will happen to us here, and only after drinking some wine will we have the courage to follow you around!"

In fact, Bai Xuan knew, because of Yan Yan's incident, Zi Yan was still angry, and it was natural for her to use wine to kill her sorrows, but Bai Xuan just liked to talk to Zi Yan.

"As far as you are concerned, I guess the Gray Sect can't believe it at all, we actually dare to come to Donggang, right?"

The wine, food and tea of the two gradually came together, Zi Yan took the wine jug to her nose and sniffed it, and then directly took the wine jug and poured a big mouthful

"Don't say it, this Gray Sect is really not useless, like this wine is brewed well. ”

Bai Xuan shook his head with a smile, observed the various merchants around him, and said slowly

"You said that if I go directly to them, can I have any news of Bai Shulong?"

Zi Yan frowned, and said helplessly,

"These should be people who were driven back by the gap Gray Sect, looking at them like this, don't say that they can't ask for news, I'm afraid they will get into trouble. ”

Bai Xuan sighed, nodded and said,

"That's what I thought, and it looks like I'll have to find another way. ”

Then he looked around, and suddenly, Bai Xuan's eyes stayed in a corner of the tavern, and asked Zi Yan softly,

"Look over there, when we came in, was there this woman?"

Zi Yan looked at Bai Xuan with the wine, and then frowned, the two of them acted cautiously, and they had looked at everyone before entering the store, but how this woman with long black straight hair and a pure black silk robe appeared, the two of them were completely unaware.

Zi Yan whispered,

"If you and I don't notice, then it must be a master, she doesn't come to you, and you don't mess with her, as long as it's not from the Gray Sect. ”

Bai Xuan still looked at the black-haired woman and nodded carelessly, as if he hadn't heard what Zi Yan was saying at all.

Zi Yan looked at it and sneered,

"You are staring at people so directly, I'm afraid that it's not the soul that has been hooked away. ”

But even if Zi Yan said this, Bai Xuan's gaze still couldn't take his eyes off, and he thought of something in a trance, so he actually got up and walked straight towards the black-haired woman.

When Bai Xuan got up, Zi Yan was shocked and said to herself,

"Didn't you really hook people's souls?"

I wanted to keep up with Bai Xuan, but I was afraid that I would make too much movement to attract people's attention, so I watched from a distance and didn't dare to act rashly.

I saw Bai Xuan walking to the black-haired woman's table without saying a word, as if he wanted to ask something, and was about to speak, but it was the black-haired woman who said first,

"Sit. ”

Such a simple word, as if with magic power, Bai Xuan actually sat down obediently opposite her.

It wasn't until he heard this void-like voice that Bai Xuan seemed to suddenly realize, and all his thoughts were like springs.

This woman!

Isn't it the woman who came out of the hidden study in the back mountain of the Bai family back then!

The woman who was already above the heavenly steps more than a year ago made Bai Xuan look up to the existence.

It was indeed after seeing her that Bai Xuan completely understood what it meant to have someone outside the world and a heaven outside the sky, which became an opportunity for him to really know and start cultivating hard.

"It's you!"

Bai Xuan almost exclaimed.

The black-haired woman nodded slightly and said coldly,

"Bai Gongzi. ”

Although Bai Xuan lowered his voice, he still attracted the attention of the surroundings, and he was busy coughing a few times and whispering,

"I just felt that the girl was familiar, but I didn't expect it to be you. ”

Bai Xuan still couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, you must know that this black-haired woman's worship status in Bai Xuan's heart was no less than the existence of Yin Wanwu.

The black-haired woman glanced at Bai Xuan coldly and did not answer.

Bai Xuan knew that he was a little reckless, so he was busy and said apologetically,

"Don't be surprised by the girl, Bai Xuan also disturbed the girl on a whim. ”

Bai Xuan looked at the black-haired woman's cold appearance, thinking that she would ignore it, after all, the difference in strength between the two can be described as a world of difference, and the black-haired woman really has no need to befriend Bai Xuan, but unexpectedly, the black-haired woman actually glanced at Zi Yan, and then turned to Bai Xuan and smiled,

"Out of the way. ”

Bai Xuan didn't expect this iceberg beauty to laugh, even through the black veil, Bai Xuan could still feel the fairy aura in the black-haired woman's smile, and he was immediately a little moved, but he didn't know if this was worship or something else.

Before Bai Xuan could calm down, the black-haired woman said,

"Let her come and sit down. ”

Obviously, what the black-haired woman was referring to was Zi Yan.

Seeing Bai Xuan beckoning her to come over, Zi Yan frowned, a little reluctant, but still quietly moved her seat.

"You know?"

Zi Yan looked puzzled, sat down, and whispered to Bai Xuan, before Bai Xuan could speak, the black-haired woman said coldly,

"It's not an acquaintance, but it's an acquaintance. ”

This sentence held back Bai Xuangang's words when he wanted to show off the strength of this black-haired woman.

Zi Yan saw Bai Xuan's admiration for this black-haired woman, and raised her eyebrows slightly,

"In Xia Ziyan, I don't know what to call the girl?"

The black-haired woman said lightly,

"Chiyu. ”

Bai Xuan nodded, as if he had just thought of not asking the other party's name, and muttered,

"It turned out to be Miss Qianxi..."

Zi Yan was surprised,

"You don't even know people's names?"

Bai Xuan pursed his lips, a little embarrassed, and then hurriedly changed the topic,

"I don't know why Miss Qianxi came to this East Port?"

Qianxi still didn't mean to answer, just slowly reached out to take the cup and poured the tea.

The black silk robe slipped slightly from her slender jade hand, and after putting the two cups of hot tea in front of Bai Xuan Ziyan and the others, she took a clean cup, poured half a cup of hot tea, covered her face and gently lifted the veil, and took a small sip.

Such a simple action of pouring tea and drinking tea, Bai Xuan was about to suffocate, he couldn't have imagined that there were still people in the world who could turn drinking tea into such a beautiful picture.

Don't say it's Bai Xuan, even Zi Yan, who is a woman on the side, is a little infatuated, Zi Yan is definitely a national color and natural fragrance, but compared with Qianxi, she can only sigh to herself.

Just when the two of them were a little stunned, Qianxi said slowly in that cold voice,

"Bai is long-awaiting. ”

These three words instantly pulled Bai Xuan back to reality.

He couldn't believe his ears, you know, since Bai Xuan left home, this is the first time he has heard the words "Bai Shushu" from other people's mouths, Bai Xuan's emotions are a little out of control, and he said in a trembling voice,

"You... What do you say?"

Qianxi raised her hand slightly, signaling Bai Xuan to be quieter, and continued,

"People have been in Tianyun Mountain for half a month. ”

Bai Xuan never dreamed that this unintentional chance encounter would give him such a big surprise.

Bai Xuan hurriedly asked,

"Where is Tianyun Mountain?"

Qianxi frowned slightly, as if he didn't expect Bai Xuan to not know where Tianyun Mountain was, sighed lightly, and took out a roll of sheepskin from somewhere.

"This. ”

Bai Xuan fixed his eyes and saw that this was a complete map of the Eastern Continent.

Tianyun Mountain is located in the northernmost part of the Eastern Continent, connected to the Endless Sea in the north and bordered by the extreme cold of the Northern Continent in the west. If you only look at the geographical location, it is the closest to the Bai family, but unfortunately there is a stone wall mountain in the middle, and there is an additional Tianyun River.

Bai Xuanzai carefully looked at the entire map, this was the first time he had seen the appearance of the entire Eastern Continent, and he sighed in his heart, but then he seemed to have suddenly discovered something, pointing to the location of Tianyun Mountain and saying in surprise,

"If she can get here, it means that she has already traveled the entire Eastern Continent, how is this possible?"

Qianxi just looked at Bai Xuan coldly and didn't speak.

At this time, Zi Yan, who sensed that something was wrong, suddenly spoke,

"Since you are just meeting in Pingshui, why did Miss Qianxi deliberately help this kid, isn't the girl also a member of the Gray Sect, or is this a trap?"

Bai Xuan was also puzzled in his heart, but he didn't think that Qianxi would be a member of the Gray Sect, with her strength, if she met two people at this moment, she didn't need to be so pretentious at all, I was afraid that if the two of them combined, they would not be able to make three moves under her.

Qianxi also saw Bai Xuan's concerns, and said leisurely,

"I owe you a message back then, and I pay you back today. ”
