Chapter 154: Red Beans
Slender Lake in Jiangzhou City, Guan Mingyu walked on the edge of Slender Lake with a helpless face, looking at Chen Li who was walking while eating a bowl of braised pork that looked very tendonous not far behind him.
After leaving from Elder Jiang, Guan Mingyu first went back to the sect's residence to meet with Elder Sacrificial Wine and got an invitation to the World Talent Festival. Then I said goodbye to a few friends, and I received a message from the Bai family, and we met in Jiangzhou at the end of October, and then participated in the World Talent Festival together.
So Chen Li, who was finally lifted from the grounding, made up his mind to increase (big) and wide (eat) and see (special) smell (eat), and the next day he said goodbye to Elder Jiang and went out of Yandang Mountain.
More than 3,000 miles from Yandang Mountain to Jiangzhou City, with the cultivation of the two of them, they stopped and stopped all the way through four big cities, and it only took three days to reach Jiangzhou, which was still very early from the time agreed with Bai Wuwu.
Since crossing the main world, Guan Mingyu has never been to other states except for entering the Yidu through Hezhou and then to Cen Zhou. Jiangzhou and Yangzhou are called Jiangyang two states, it is the richest place in the world, and Slender Lake is known as the first lake in the world. The old Gu bayberry on the South Mountain, the fast meal of the best master in the Yinling Temple, and the grandmother's biscuits on the edge of the Yellow Creek...... For three whole days, I seemed to be running around looking for delicious food, not to mention the Dongshan braised pork that I must have every day on Hefang Street.
Jiangzhou is also worthy of the name of paradise on earth, and I have walked all over the streets and alleys along the way, and I have not seen a repeat scene. The quality of the residents made Guan Mingyu even more surprised, and he searched all over Jiangzhou, but he couldn't find a few illiterate people. There are private schools between the streets and alleys, and there are academies in a street, where countless literati and writers have left nouns and swan songs, and there are poems and books echoing in every alley.
What shocked Guan Mingyu even more was that the residents of Jiangzhou City actually practiced martial arts. Even the people on the street have at least walked to the edge of qi training, and there are twelve out of ten who have stepped into qi training. Even many academy martial arts halls have supernatural realm masters to suppress them, which is even better than the Yidu. Of course, there are more than ten top masters in the state of mind, each of whom is a famous person in Jiangzhou, forming a "Hundred People's Association", and maintaining the glorious scene of the first city in the world together with the Jiangzhou government.
But Guan Mingyu knew that this was just the power on the surface. Before leaving the mountain, Guan Mingyu went to the library and packed all the miscellaneous notes and exercises that he could take away at the moment, taking advantage of the fact that he had a general understanding of them these days. The whole Jiangzhou is the territory of the Fish and Dragon Road, although the Fish Dragon Road is in Yandang Mountain, but Jiangzhou Slender Lake is also a famous place for spiritual energy, I don't know how many masters are cultivating in Jiangzhou, and the trading of spiritual crystal spiritual materials that come and go is even more terrifying. Even the Fish Dragon Road has three elders stationed in Jiangzhou, more than a dozen Dharma protectors, and a magic weapon fire rohu bow is enshrined in Jiangzhou City to escort the business of the Fish Dragon Road.
It was these that the Fish Dragon Dao relied on to feed six hundred inner disciples, more than thirty true descendants, seven or eight holy sons, and more than thirty elders, and most of the spiritual crystal spiritual materials consumed were distributed by Jiangzhou City.
In addition to the station of Yulongdao and the capital of Daxia Prefecture, Jiangzhou has also formed four major forces. One is the "Wushan Martial Arts Hall" established thousands of years ago after an inner disciple of the Yulong Dao returned to the world for special reasons, one is the "Hidden Spirit Temple" of Buddhism that has taken root in Jiangzhou for tens of thousands of years, the other is the "Slender Lake League" composed of local hermit masters, and the remaining one is the Lin family, which is known as the first in Jiangzhou.
These six major forces, any of which have given birth to a great grandmaster of the half-step Yuan God level, currently have a grandmaster of the Knowing Destiny Realm. Due to the compromise between the Great Xia Dynasty and the top forces, the Great Xia Prefecture only had one grandmaster stationed in the state government, and one grandmaster commanded the Jiangzhou guard, which was considered the weakest force. However, backed by the Great Xia Dynasty, even the Fish Dragon Dao did not dare to be overly persecuted.
The remaining three major forces are all local forces, and the Buddhist "Hidden Spirit Temple" is rumored to be the reincarnation of the Middle Ages Dragon Arhat, and there are currently three grandmasters. The Slender Lake Alliance is even more extraordinary, it is said that there are more than five grandmasters, but they have many disagreements with each other, and they are only nominal allies. Wushan Martial Arts Hall inherits a technique of the Ichthyosaurus Dao, which can be regarded as a hardcore ally of the Ichthyosaurus Dao, and currently has three grandmasters. In the end, the last thing left is the Lin family, which is faintly known as the number one force in Jiangzhou, because the old patriarch of this family is a great grandmaster!
Half-step Yuanshen, the will shines into reality, can hook the true power of the magic weapon, and holding the magic weapon is equivalent to the real Yuanshen real person, so he can be called a great master.
The Lin family has been in Jiangzhou City for thousands of years, and it has eight grandmasters and one great grandmaster on the surface. In addition to the lack of immortal suppression, it is not inferior to the lower-ranking families among the top forces. And Jiangzhou has been a famous city in the world since ancient times, there were heavenly people preaching here in the ancient times, there were also emperors ascending the throne here in ancient times, Buddhism and Bodhisattvas were also manifested here, and after the Middle Ages, countless great powers were reincarnated here. If anyone said that the Lin family had not secretly found a clue to the immortal weapon, Guan Mingyu would definitely spit on him.
Fortunately, according to the Sacrificial Wine Elder, the Lin family is an ally of the Fish Dragon Dao, and the two families do not want other forces to interfere in the affairs of Jiangzhou, so they join forces to squeeze out the Great Xia Dynasty and the Hidden Spirit Temple, and they also rely on their local identity to form an alliance with the Slender Lake Alliance, and completely gain the upper hand.
Thinking of this, Guan Mingyu couldn't help but wonder, Elder Jiang said that he had to come to Jiangzhou once, but according to Elder Sacrificial Wine, the sect did not arrange a sect task for him. Fortunately, I was also passing by this time, and by the way, I took a foodie to Jiangzhou, and when I patted my ass and flashed people for more than ten days, the next thing had nothing to do with me.
The two of them wandered around the Slender Lake, chatting about Jiangzhou's miscellaneous affairs.
After walking for half an hour, Guan Mingyu saw a large group of people in front of him, bustling and lively. Before he could decide whether to take a look, he heard Chen Li shouting behind him: "Senior Brother Guan, it's so lively ahead, I'll go and see it first." Before Guan Mingyu could react, the Dongshan braised pork in her hand disappeared, and then turned into a breeze and swept past her, leaving only her cyan robe messy in the wind.
Guan Mingyu shook his head, so he had to dodge and follow.
In the blink of an eye, the distance of two miles was reached, and as soon as Guan Mingyu approached here, he felt the breath coming from ahead. Vibrant and plain and natural, soft and fresh, with a faint all-encompassing atmosphere. Naturally, he stopped and looked at the young man in front of him.
The man was wearing a dark blue robe, his hair was hanging down behind his head, and he stood quietly on the edge of the crowd and watched the crowd, which made people can't help but be quiet when they see it. The moment he stopped, the man also turned his head to look at him, his eyes with a flat scrutiny, and his handsome face softened.
He chuckled lightly and greeted first: "It turned out to be Senior Brother An, Senior Brother is polite." ”
The man also nodded slightly, pulled the little girl next to him and said to himself, "Long time no see, Senior Brother Guan." ”
Guan Mingyu looked to the side, Chen Li had already smiled at the little girl: "Ah, Hongdou, why are you here?"
The little girl wore two uplifted braids, a bow on one side, her hair was like a raised ponytail, she looked like she was seventeen or eighteen years old, about the tip of her nose, she wore a long red dress, her nose was high, her eyes revealed pure black, and her skin was fair and immaculate.
She turned her head and looked at Chen Li who was rushing over, the corners of her mouth were upturned, two deep dimples appeared on her cheeks, her eyebrows were bent down, and her voice was as crisp as a yellow bird: "Lili!"
What you think is what you mean, Xuanguang is born, and ordinary people may be confused by Xuanguang at a glance, An Miaoshu has really reached the edge of knowing his fate. If it weren't for the deliberate suppression, I am afraid that I would be able to cast the body of Xuanguang at any time, and completely know my fate in one step.
Seeing that Chen Li and the little girl also knew each other, Guan Mingyu looked at the two of them talking with peace of mind. Maybe it's a reunion after a long absence, the two are chattering about something, and An Miaoshu is also smiling and watching. After a while, maybe because he had seen too much, he turned his head and said to Guan Mingyu: "This is my sister, Hongdou." ”
He said to Hongdou: "Hongdou, this is Senior Brother of Yulong Daoguan. ”
An Hongdou is such a nice name, Guan Mingyu smiled at her, and then heard her greet herself strangely but politely, and continued to talk to Chen Li.
An Miaoshu smiled at him: "Hongdou is the first time in so many years that he has been out of the mountain, and he doesn't know much about these manners." ”
Guan Mingyu shook his head: "Senior Sister Chen is also out of the mountain for the first time in these years, and she looks similar. Besides, where do you care about these false courtesies? ”
An Miaoshu glanced at him, and then said: "The two of them grew up together when they were children, and Hongdou is more familiar with Chen Li than my brother." ”
At this time, Guan Mingyu heard Chen Li and An Hongdou say hello to him, "Senior Brother An, you are also going to participate in the World Talent Festival?"
An Miaoshu smiled at her and quipped, "What, only now do you want to remember to say hello to me?"
Chen Li's face turned red, and he quickly explained: "I haven't seen red beans for a long time, and I'm happy, don't I come to say hello to you?"
Seeing her appearance, An Miaoshu had to shake her head and say, "Okay, okay, you go play with Hongdou, I don't blame you." ”
Chen Li instantly smiled: "Okay, Senior Brother An, Hongdou and I will go over there to have a look, and I'll come to you later." After speaking, without waiting for An Miaoshu to reply, he pulled An Hongdou and left. An Hongdou couldn't struggle, made an apologetic expression to Guan Mingyu, and then was pulled by Chen Li into the crowd.
Guan Mingyu then asked, "Senior Brother An, what are so many people doing here?" he looked at the growing crowd and asked casually subconsciously.
"It's interesting, you can see it just by looking at it. An Miaoshu spit out a few inexplicable words and motioned for Guan Mingyu to read it.
Guan Mingyu was slightly stunned, then looked at the young woman lying in the middle of the venue, and after observing it carefully for a while, a strange smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and then she looked at it with An Miaoshu.
At this time, a man in a blue shirt squeezed through the crowd and walked towards the middle.
