Chapter 44: The Ancient City of the Desert
"Big brother, thank you so much for rescuing, my brothers went to Yunluo Sect to participate in the entrance assessment, this mountain road is vast, I don't know when I will be able to arrive at the deserted ancient city, fortunately I met your spirit ox cart, thank you very much!"
Yu Wuxian sighed with emotion, looked at the mountain road under him, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, they met this rich and noble family halfway to drive a very fast ox cart to transport rice and vegetables, and they were rescued, and the four people, a bear and a rabbit, all sat on the ox cart, and rushed to the ancient city like the wind.
The speed of the spirit ox is extremely fast, which is equal to the speed of the fish innocent running with all its might, and the endurance of the spirit ox is excellent, and it is only half an hour to run more than a hundred miles.
The man who drove the car smiled and said: "Brother, I'm just on the way, I didn't transport too many things today, and I won't get in the way of carrying you for a ride, I'm almost there, you see! The city in front is the desolate ancient city of our Longchen Empire, named because of its proximity to the Desolate Ancient Mountain Range!"
He was very excited when he talked about the deserted ancient city, and he was very proud to introduce his hometown to outsiders, and he talked a lot along the way.
Yu Wuxian is helpless, he doesn't want to listen to these useless news at all, about the deserted ancient city, he has long been familiar with it, people who have been out of Yunmeng Country will go to the deserted ancient city, everyone who goes out and comes back has to say that the prosperity of the deserted ancient city, he was tired of listening to it when he was in the palace, where can he still listen to this man's nagging, if he hadn't taken someone's ox cart, he would have cursed a long time ago.
The desolate ancient city, originally there was no such city, but because of the territorial expansion of the Longchen Empire, this desolate spirit mountain has also become theirs, they hurriedly built a city to prove that the desolate spirit mountain is theirs, for this reason also called the city desolate ancient city, the ancient city of the ancient city, when others heard it, it turned out that this city had something to do with the desolate spirit mountain, and they would think that the desolate spirit mountain was the Longchen Empire.
Yu Wuxian scoffed at this, and thought to himself: "The weirdness on the Desolate Spirit Mountain may not be able to shake even if the entire Longchen Empire is poured out, I don't know where the cheeky skin came from to say that this Desolate Spirit Mountain that stretches for hundreds of thousands of miles is theirs!"
"Big brother!
Yu Dongfeng called him, pointed to the city in front of him and said, "Big brother, come down quickly, you have arrived in the deserted ancient city!"
Yu Wuxian looked up, saw the huge and thick city wall, saw the moss and weeds on the city wall, and saw the runes all over it, and couldn't help laughing: "It's here!"
He hurriedly got out of the car, walked to the side of the car driver, took out a Zhu Guo for him, and said: "This Zhu Guo can increase cultivation, I see that the eldest brother is also a monk, this Zhu Guo will be given to you, it is our thank you gift!"
The man was startled, and hurriedly said, "I can't help it, brother, I'm just giving you a ride, you will give me a vermilion fruit, do you know how much the vermilion fruit is worth!?"
Seeing the man's serious face, Yu Wuxian was stunned, he knew that Zhu Guo was valuable, but he didn't feel too precious, so he couldn't help but say tentatively: "One... 10,000 taels of gold!?"
As soon as he said this, the people around him looked at him, and then the man who drove the car was short of breath, and his eyes widened and said: "This Zhu Guo is worth a million taels of gold! Because it can increase the relationship between Shouyuan, it is extremely precious, boy, I will give you a ride is a gesture, I can't accept it, you put it away, and the others will be red when they see it!"
The man thought that Yu Wuxian was a stupid boy, so he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Boy, I'll go first!"
Yu Wuxian glanced around and found that the other people were really staring at him, he thought it was ridiculous and didn't want to pay attention to it.
He grabbed him, forced Zhu Guo into his mouth, and said with a smile: "Big brother, this is the little brother's intention, not a thank you gift, you don't have to feel indebted, I originally had five Zhu Guo, I have already taken four of them, and the last one has also been taken by you, it's gone!"
He looked at Yu Dongfeng and the others behind him, and said with a smile: "Let's go!"
They entered the city without looking back, and there was a loud noise behind them.
"Brother, my name is Li and asked, if you succeed in the future, you will definitely repay your brother, brother thank you here!"
The man looked at Yu Wuxie's back, bowed heavily, and then left with his ox cart, while the rest of the people were talking about it. Then a few hundred years later, Li Wendao reached the innate realm, gave birth to an heir, named Li Qiudao, Li Qiudao also achieved congenital, gave birth to an heir, named Li Dedao, Li Dao became a god and got a daughter, named Li Shengdao, when Li Shengdao became a god, the sky fell with a sense of golden light and gave birth to a son, named Li Er. (Pure fiction, will not be elaborated later)
Yu Wuxian was stunned for a moment, and after hearing the man's name, he suddenly felt that he might still have a fate with this person, so he couldn't help but shrug his shoulders and entered a restaurant with five fools behind him.
"Little Er, bring all the delicious food, bring another pot of wine, and spread some crushed ice!"
Yu Wuxian chose a place to sit down, he sat alone, Yu Ling'er and Yu Xihe sat together, Xiong Ba and Yu Dongfeng were still talking, and as for Changyu, she was also on one side.
Yu Ling'er was so excited, her stomach was already growling with hunger, she looked at Xiao Er on the side, and also learned Yu Innocence's tone and said, "Xiao Er, come to a bucket of rice!
As soon as her voice came out, the people in the restaurant looked at them strangely, and began to talk again, Xiao Er and the shopkeeper were also stunned, hurry up and do it, it's not good to delay. When they saw Xiong Ba, they thought that the person who came must be a monk, and it was impossible for a monk to be short of money, so they didn't ask too much and went straight to work.
Xiong Ba looked at Yu Ling'er and said with respect: "It's still Ling'er, Xiao Er, I want half a bucket!"
When Xiao Er heard this, he couldn't cry or laugh, so he hurriedly went to get half a bucket, and when he heard Xiong Ba speak, the rest of the people were not surprised, knowing that the wild beasts could speak human words, plus there were many wild beasts in the ancient city, and they were not surprised.
Yu Wuxian drank wine and asked the shopkeeper who settled the accounts: "Shopkeeper, this Yunzhou Bureau is on the other side of the city!? I and a few younger brothers went to relatives in the distance, I wonder if I can ask you to show me the way?"
He didn't say that he was going to the Yunluo Sect for the assessment, this was to prevent the persecution of some people, especially those monks who were going to the Yunluo Sect, they didn't mind killing a few opponents halfway.
"Hehe, the Hakka will go out to the left later, not far away is the Yunzhou Bureau, that place is big, it's easy to find!"
The shopkeeper smiled, recognizing that Yu Wuxian was not from the Desolate Ancient City, but from other places, so he also kindly explained: "The Desolate Ancient City has been lively these days, I heard that the entrance assessment of the Yunluo Sect has been advanced, and many young people are going to go!
Yu Wuxian nodded and smiled at him, but his heart was uncomfortable, he didn't know who he would meet along the way, and he didn't know what kind of demons and monsters these people were, and he began to worry about the unquiet road ahead.
"Haha! Yu Wuxie, you are so stupid! You don't eat quickly, look at Ling'er, she has eaten a bucket of rice!"
Chang Yu turned her head to look at Yu Wuxie, her eyes narrowed slightly, reminding Yu Wuxian that she didn't have to worry about herself, she didn't have to worry about the road ahead, she continued: "The soldiers are coming to block, the water is coming to cover the earth, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain!"
Her smile was very sweet, but it made Yu Wuxian very unhappy, what he was unhappy about was not Chang Yu, but that he actually asked a dwarf winter melon flat-chested rabbit to comfort him, which made him feel that his IQ had been insulted, so he was a little unhappy.
"Alright!
Yu Wuxian moved his chopsticks, while eating while listening to other people on the side, he likes to be quiet, the quieter he is, the more he can hear other sounds, and useful news will come naturally.
The other people in the restaurant were discussing the matter of the Yunluo Sect's entrance assessment, and they seemed to attach great importance to this matter, probably because the Yunluo Sect was one of the top ten sects, and everyone wanted to try their luck, maybe after entering, they could use their identity as a disciple of the Yunluo Sect to run rampant everywhere.
"Have you heard? The son of the lord of the desolate ancient city, Mu Gongzi, is also going to Yunluo Sect, this shepherd's talent is extremely high, I heard that he is only seventeen years old, he is already a monk in the Yunling Realm, and there are few opponents in the Yunling Realm of the desolate ancient city, this time I am afraid that I will go directly to the inner gate of Yunluo Sect!"
"Hey! But although Mu Gongzi is powerful, I heard that Feng Wanjun, the third lady of the Feng Family of the Fengyun Caravan, is also very powerful, on par with Mu Gongzi!"
"Haha, fortunately, we don't have to compete for the disciple seat of Yunluo Sect, it's better to farm in this desolate ancient city, be quiet and eat enough!"
"Yes, yes!"
They continued to drink and gossip, but the fish next to him was so nervous that he almost fainted as he leaned on his stool.
Mu Gongzi, Feng Wanjun!, Yun Ling Realm has few opponents!?
Yu Wuxian felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he was only in the late stage of the refining body realm, he was still one line away from the peak, and he did not reach the Yun Ling Realm, although he deliberately lowered the realm, but he didn't think that his body refining realm could fight with others in the two Yun Ling Realm, and he was dizzy when he thought of this.
He hurried over and sat down with those chatting big men, and then instructed Xiao Er to say, "Two pots of wine, a few more side dishes and three catties of beef!"
Xiao Er nodded and hurriedly went to prepare.
When those big men saw him coming, they couldn't help but say, "Hehe, my brother must have something to ask, since you invite your brothers to drink, we naturally know everything!"
Yu Wuxian smiled, he really wanted to know about the Mu Gongzi and Feng Wanjun in these mouths, he put on a curious look, and asked: "Who is this Mu Gongzi!? Is it very powerful? And that Feng Wanjun, who is she?"
A fat and strong man smiled, and said seriously: "Look at the brother, you are a foreigner, this shepherd boy is the son of Jun Shanlie, the lord of the deserted ancient city, named Jun Shanmu, known as the herd boy, this shepherd boy is extremely good, three years old riding a horse and shooting a tiger at the age of five, now seventeen years old, he is a relatively strong monk in the Yunling Realm, he has challenged the rest of the Yunling Realm monks in the ancient city, and he is invincible!"
The big man said dryly, hurriedly drank a sip of wine, ate a few mouthfuls of meat, and continued: "As for this Feng Wanjun, it is also amazing, it is the pearl of the Feng family of the Fengyun caravan, the Feng family's family background is very large, and it is more powerful than the ancient city lord of the wilderness, which also allows Feng Wanjun to get a lot of resources, and his cultivation can be matched by Jun Shanmu!"
Meng Yu was stunned for a moment, nodded very seriously, and he bowed his hand and said, "Brothers, eat slowly, I'll go to settle the bill!"
He walked up to Xiao Er and asked him to settle, Xiao Er smiled and said, "Hakka, a total of fifty-one taels!"
Yu Wuxian was stunned for a moment, took out ten taels of gold and put it on the board, pointed to the group of big men just now and said with a smile: "Those are also on my head, and the rest are even thanks gifts for me to ask the shopkeeper!"
He looked back at Yu Ling'er and the others, lifted his sleeves, and said, "Let's go!"
Everyone asked, and after tidying up, they followed suit, and they headed towards Yunzhou Road on the left, leaving Xiao Er and the shopkeeper with a blank face.
The shopkeeper smiled: "It is estimated that a rich kid came out to wander around, and he deliberately wore such a tattered out!"
