Finally, Lan Xinyue stopped the "sadism" and smiled at the middle-aged man, whose face twitched unnaturally. Obviously, he equated Lan Xinyue with his own tigress.
"This big brother. It was Lan Xinyue who spoke.
"Huh, what?" the middle-aged man swallowed and glanced at Long Haotian with sympathetic eyes.
"What's the name of the town you just said you could settle in?" Lan Xinyue continued.
"Hey, what's your name?Yes, what do you think you'll call it?" The middle-aged man didn't answer directly, and at the same time there was a mysterious smile on his face, which made Long Haotian and Lan Xinyue feel a little surprised.
However, seeing that the middle-aged man seemed to be deliberately not mentioning the matter, the two stopped asking. After walking another mile, this middle-aged man met an acquaintance, so he said goodbye to the two first, and Long Haotian and Lan Xinyue walked down the direction he pointed.
Sure enough, after walking about fifty miles, a town really appeared in front of me. However, to Long Haotian's surprise, the scale of this town was quite large. The tall city walls and towering city gates are not inferior in scale to Dragon Bird City.
"I didn't expect that this ordinary town in Ziyun County would have such a scale. It seems that it is really incomparable to the Thousand Flames Monarch!" Long Haotian sighed with emotion.
"Huh, Haotian, this place really doesn't seem to have a name!" Lan Xinyue knew that Long Haotian couldn't see, and pointed to the empty roof of the city gate that had not yet been engraved with his name, and said.
"Oh, no name?" Long Haotian frowned, feeling a little surprised, it seems that there is really something going on here.
When they came to the town, the two could feel the celebratory atmosphere on their faces. At this time, Long Hao realized that today was the first day of the new year.
Yes, the year-end martial arts competition was just yesterday. But yesterday, it seemed so real to him and yet so unreal.
A month ago, he was born in the Sacred Continent again, and then relied on his talent to rise strongly, and won the favor of the head of the Yan family. He thought that everything was going in the direction he expected, but who expected that the change would come so quickly and so completely.
Overnight, his home was gone, and the family affection that made him feel extremely warm was gone! he couldn't hear the call of his mother and sister, and he couldn't pinch the fat face of Baozi. Even those people of the Yan family who once made him feel disdainful are now underground ghosts. He has become a person again, fortunately, there is still Xinyue by his side at this moment.
"What's the matter??, just one day away, and you're homesick?" how could Lan Xinyue not understand Long Haotian's thoughts, at this moment, her tone was no longer arrogant, and she was a little more caring like a sister.
"What are you talking about!" Long Haotian didn't want to show his weak side in front of Lan Xinyue, and hurriedly showed a resolute look.
"Okay, I won't talk to you more," Lan Xinyue smiled, "Let's find an inn to rest first, and then plan what will happen next!"
Long Haotian nodded, but before setting off again, he told Lan Xinyue to restrain his beauty.
"Why, don't you want your girlfriend to be looked at more?" her tone returned to tsundere.
"If people look at you with admiration, of course I'm willing," Long Haotian said honestly, "but I'm afraid that in this world, more people are either like Cheng Yuan or like Shen Dan." When the time comes, it will inevitably cause something again. When I first arrived, I thought it would be better to be a little more restrained!"
"Okay!" the girl did not refuse, in fact she had already restrained her beauty. And after listening to Long Haotian's words, her heart was a little sweeter.
The two walked together, and after a while, they came to a restaurant. No matter where it is, the restaurant is the most convenient place to find out the news.
"Lingyun Pavilion. Lan Xinyue read the three words on the plaque that were quite domineering.
"I didn't expect a restaurant in this town to have such a bold name. ”
"Hmm!" Long Haotian nodded, and said secretly: "Maybe because of the strength of the county, a restaurant in this nameless town is more luxurious than some big wine shops in Dragon Bird City. ”
At this moment, there were three sturdy men surrounding a beautiful woman who was about to enter the restaurant, and after listening to Lan Xinyue's words, the beautiful woman glanced at the girl out of the corner of her eye, and then mocked in a disdainful tone: "Heh!
A trace of coldness flashed on Long Haotian's face, and then he said to Lan Xinyue in a playful tone: "You women are really, you are jealous when you see something more beautiful than yourself, and you despise what you are ugly than yourself. ”
"Hmph, aren't you men the same?" Lan Xinyue's face was full of arrogance and contempt, "If you see that your cultivation is higher than you, you have to calculate, and if you see your cultivation lower than you, you have to bully!"
"Okay! I can't talk about you!" Long Haotian stuck out his tongue. Since the woman didn't name and name, I don't bother to pay attention to your provocation and ridicule!
The greatest humiliation in the world is ignorance.
What's more, Lan Xinyue has reined in her beauty at this moment, so in the eyes of that woman, she is an ugly village woman, and as for Long Haotian, an ordinary man who is the sixth level of the Star Refining Realm, she is like an ant in her own eyes. As a result, it was good today, she despised them, and she was despised by them in turn!
As the saying goes, a slap doesn't make a sound, even if it is deliberately finding fault, then it has to be plucked by others to react to the fight, otherwise even if you win, you will feel bored, and even fall into a bullying handle.
This woman was originally in a bad mood today because she was unlucky in the casino and lost some money, so she took the initiative to taunt Lan Xinyue, so that she could vent the fire in her stomach after the two of them returned the favor.
Unexpectedly, the two of them didn't pay attention to her at all, and she felt an evil fire blocked her throat and eyes, and her chest was uncomfortable.
"Follow me!" she didn't want to give up, even if it was her own fault for today's incident.
The three men were obviously looking forward to her, and immediately hugged the beautiful woman and walked into the restaurant. When I came to the lobby, I saw Long Haotian and Lan Xinyue sitting by the window, and the four of them should sit down at the adjacent table.
Lingyun Pavilion, although it is only a restaurant, is famous in the Purple Cloud Monarchy, because the four elders of the Purple Cloud Sect are called Lingyun.
Since it is one country and one sect, the pattern of the Ziyun County is completely no different from the sect: the royal capital is the place where the sect master and some old monsters at the level of the Supreme Elder are located.
Because he wants to impact a higher realm, he often has to retreat, and he rarely asks about the affairs of the sect, and it is rare to see it for many years. Therefore, these old monsters have extremely high prestige in the sect, but they do not hold real power. Only when the sect encounters something important will they come forward.
And under the suzerain, it is the Great Elder who really holds the real power.
In the years since the rise of the Purple Cloud Sect, every time a Great Elder is born, the sect will give him a city of his own. The name of the city was named after the elders. The elders have absolute sovereignty in their own cities. In comparison, those old monsters only have a mansion of their own in the royal capital.
And the master of Lingyun Pavilion is naturally the Great Elder Lingyun. Its main store is located in Lingyun City, which is its branch in the major towns around Lingyun City.
Long Haotian and Lan Xinyue made it by the window, because they killed demon beasts all the way in the Dragon Bird Ridge and gluttonous food, the two of them were not very hungry, so they just ordered a pot of tea, tasted it quietly there, and went to get greasy.
At this moment, it is just past noon, and people are already full of wine and food, so although the air can still smell the smell of meat and wine, but the Lingyun Pavilion at this time is more like a teahouse, there are not many people, and the fragrance of tea that gradually drifts away is slowly dissipating the smell of wine and meat.
Tea drinkers, mostly in groups of three or five, chatted there in low voices, seemingly unwilling to let those around them hear their conversations. However, with Long Haotian's spiritual sense, even the trembling of the dust could be perceived, so their words sounded clear.
Soon, Long Haotian discovered that people's conversations revolved around one theme - the mayor, or the lord of the town. And the mystery that the town has no name is solved.
