Chapter 17: The Drunken Incense Pavilion
Yang Lao said with a smile: "In this heaven and earth, there are some peculiar ginseng, these ginseng, the soul master condenses the seal of the destiny of heaven with spiritual power, each is innumerable, each has its own level, but between heaven and earth, the most powerful is the founding ancient ginseng, the founding ancient ginseng is not created by people, but condensed between heaven and earth, each founding ancient ginseng has the power of the heavens, and those who have ancient ginseng are the most powerful existence in this heaven and earth." ”
"And there are only a few dozen plants in the entire heaven and earth, and only a very few lucky people can refine an ancient ginseng by chance, and these people, without exception, are all leaders in the soul master world......
"Hmm" Tang Yun nodded respectfully, and then asked: "Teacher, you said before that this founding ancient ginseng is a strange thing in heaven and earth, and there are only a few dozen plants in the entire heaven and earth, so can there be a way to rank and identify it? If the disciple encounters it in the future, he will be able to recognize it." ”
Yang Lao nodded, thought for a while, and said: "An ancestor once calculated that there should be twenty-one ancient ginseng strains in the founding, and that ancestor spent more than ten generations of time and energy to make the ancient ginseng record. ”
"Ancient References?" Tang Yun wondered.
"Yes, it is the Founding Ancient Ginseng Record, which clearly records the characteristics, appearance, and effect of each Founding Ancient Ginseng. Yang Lao replied, and then with a wave of his hand, he shot out a soul power that melted into Tang Yun's eyebrows.
Tang Yun closed his eyes and looked at the appearance of each Founding Ancient Ginseng before opening his eyes.
"This founding ancient ginseng is really extraordinary, and each strain has a miraculous effect against the sky. After Tang Yun opened his eyes, he couldn't help but admire.
Yang Lao smiled and said: "That is nature, a strange thing of heaven and earth formed by the power of heaven and earth, and the founding ancient ginseng that took shape after thousands of years to be finalized, how can it be mediocre?"
Tang Yun nodded, the divine light in his eyes flickered, and his mind slid over the appearance characteristics of each Founding Ancient Ginseng, and then said, "This strain is the sixteenth-ranked Xuanguang Pure Yuan Ginseng."
"Well, that's right. Elder Yang nodded and said.
"Xuanguang Pure Yuan Ginseng, ranked sixteenth, is condensed by the power of holy light between heaven and earth, and its function is to clear the mind, improve cultivation talent and understanding, and increase soul power and yuan power. Tang Yun slowly said the role of Xuanguang Pure Yuan Ginseng.
"Naturally, there are some unknown benefits that you will learn about when you devour them in the future. Yang Lao replied with a smile.
Tang Yun nodded, and didn't say much, but there were monstrous waves in his heart, and he said to himself: "The Founding Ancient Ginseng is really extraordinary, it has such a miraculous effect, and the Xuanguang Pure Yuan Ginseng can improve its understanding, if it can be devoured, then when it penetrates the truth of heaven and earth in the future, it will also be more certain." ”
"Okay, you have to hurry up and cultivate, you have to go to the town competition in three months, I don't know what will happen?" Tang Yun said to himself.
"Tomorrow, I'm going to go into the back mountain and lie down, find a demon beast to try to see if there has been any progress recently. Tang Yun said to himself.
"Cousin Tang Yun, are you there?" At this time, a female voice came.
Tang Yun looked back, and a little girl with a ponytail was walking towards Tang Yun.
Her name is Liu Xin, she is Tang Yun's cousin, and in the entire Tang family, she and Tang Yun are the closest. Perhaps it is the reason why the two have a lot of similarities, which makes their relationship extremely good, Liu Xin's mother is Tang Yun's sister-in-law. But not long after having Tang Xin, Tang Yun's uncle was killed. As a last resort, Tang Yun's sister-in-law had to take Liu Xin back to her parents' house. But Liu Xin is extremely talented in cultivation, and he is already a powerhouse in the late stage of the Yuan Body Realm at a young age.
"Cousin Tang Yun, these days, you have been cultivating all the time, and you don't have time to accompany me! Why don't we go to the town tomorrow to have fun, I haven't been there to buy rouge gouache for a long time!" Liu Xin grabbed Tang Yun's arm and shook it for a while, shaking Tang Yun's heart drunk.
"Okay, we'll go to town tomorrow!" Tang Yun immediately surrendered.
"Yes, cousin Tang Yun, you are so good. Liu Xin happily hugged Tang Yun. Perhaps, in the eyes of the little girl, it is the happiest to be able to be unrestrained with Tang Yun every day.
"Okay, I still have something to do, let's go first, you can go to bed early. Tang Yun and Liu Xin walked in the direction of the Tang family.
Jiayang Town is a market town ten miles away from Tang's family. Early the next morning, Tang Yun and Liu Xin set off together with the people who followed their family to Jiayang Town.
People living in this area will sell mountain goods and buy daily necessities here, which also makes the small town of Jiayang very prosperous.
Like other places, Jiayang Town is mainly in the hands of a few big families, whether it is commerce or security order, these big families are in charge. Jiayang Town consists of four families, namely the Tang family, the Lin family, and the Wu family.
Among them, the Tang family is the most powerful, and even if the other two families are tied together, they are not the opponents of the Tang family, but in the same way, the Tang family cannot destroy the other two families for some reason and dominate Jiayang Town.
Compared with the other two families, the Tang family is a foreign family, which was established after Tang Chang arrived here decades ago, and as his strength became stronger and stronger, the Tang family became the most powerful family in Jiayang Town, and the other three families, the strongest martial artist, was only the peak of the Yuan Creation Realm, and he was not qualified to fight against Tang Chang at all.
Due to the strength of the Tang family, the commerce of Jiayang Town was controlled by the Tang family by one-third, and the other two major families also controlled one-third in total. The remaining one-third is in the hands of some small families and ordinary people, the Tang family's business, the most important is the trade of mountain goods in Jiayang Mountain, in addition to weapons, taverns and warehouses, etc., many villages in Jiayang Mountain, most of them are also the Tang family's horses.
Tang's family is not far from Jiayang Town, more than ten miles away, even if it is walked, it will take less than two hours, Tang Yun and Liu Xin, all the way to enjoy the scenery, follow the Tang family's convoy of mountain goods, to Jiayang Town.
In order to protect their safety, the Tang family specially dispatched a team outdoors this time. The leader was none other than Li Huashan, one of the five captains of the Tang family's guards, who had the strength of the middle stage of the Yuan Creation Realm. Although Li Huashan is a foreigner, he grew up in the Tang family since he was a child, and he is also loyal to the Tang family. This time, Tang Quan specially explained to him that if he encountered danger, he must protect Tang Yun and Liu Xinyi. This made Li Huashan very cautious along the way, for fear that something unexpected would happen.
Along the way, it was very safe, when Tang Yun and the others arrived at Jiayang Town, it was when Jiayang Town was more lively, and people from the surrounding villages poured into Jiayang Town one after another, selling mountain goods or buying daily necessities, and the entire Jiayang Town presented a prosperous scene.
Looking at the crowd like a tide, Tang Yun couldn't help but feel a little emotional. The last time he came to Jiayang Town was several years ago. At that time, he was only eight years old, and he followed the people of the same village to Jiayang Town on foot, but he paid a lot of hardships in order to buy garbage exercises and martial arts that could not be used. And now, his position has changed dramatically. The strongest of the younger generation of the Tang family, he has a very high status in the entire Tang family.
"Wow, it's so lively! Cousin Tang Yun, let's go. Liu Xin is still a child, and he likes to join in the fun, so he immediately began to urge Tang Yun.
"Good. Tang Yun agreed. Today, his main purpose is to make Liu Xin happy, so naturally he follows Tai's opinion on everything.
"Young Master Tang Yun, let's go to the store first, and after the goods are delivered, then I'll accompany you to the street!" Li Huashan, the captain of the guard, was anxious and persuaded him.
Although Jiayang Town is not big, it is also mixed, if something happens to Tang Yun and them, he will not be able to explain it.
"Don't worry, Captain Li, we won't take the initiative to cause trouble, besides, Jiayang Town is so big, if something happens, I will tell you in time." Tang Yun said with a smile.
"Oh well. Seeing that Tang Yun was more insistent, Li Huashan only compromised, he made up his mind in his heart, and after this batch of goods was delivered to the store, he would come out and follow Tang Yun and them.
"Let's go, cousin Tang Yun, I remember that there is a delicious pastry in front of me, let's go eat it." Liu Xin immediately became happy, pulled Tang Yun and ran forward.
Along the way, rouge shops, jewelry stores, and clothing stores have all become places where Liu Xin lingers, no different from other girls, of course, for these things, Liu Xin is also difficult to resist the temptation.
After shopping for a morning, Tang Yun was bitter, and his body was full of large bags and small bags. Among them, there are also two sets of clothes that Liu Xin specially selected for him. These things cost hundreds of gold coins. Fortunately, Tang Yun has a lot of pocket money now, otherwise it would be really difficult to pay the bills.
Not far behind Tang Yun and them, Li Huashan took two people and secretly followed Tang Yun and them, and Tang Yun had already found out, but since he was not disturbed, he was not insisting, otherwise it would be difficult for people to do it.
After shopping for a morning, Liu Xin's interest slowly subsided, and at this time, it was already noon.
"Cousin Tang Yun, let's go eat, I know that the chicken in a restaurant is very good, or a year ago, my mother brought me here to eat, let's go eat." Liu Xin touched his stomach, looked at Tang Yun and said.
"Okay, then let's go taste it. Tang Yun was overjoyed and hurriedly said. This morning of shopping has made him suffer. Why did he feel that shopping was more tiring than practicing martial arts? Liu Xin said that he was going to eat, which sounded to him the best.
Drunken Xiang Pavilion, is the most famous restaurant in Jiayang Town, their signature dish, the famous drunken chicken fragrance, is a unique taste, even Qingling City has people come to taste, praised by everyone, every day is full, if you don't make a reservation, there is no seat at all.
When Tang Yun and the others came to Zuixiang Building, it was a meal. The three-story restaurant is already full.
"What should I do, cousin Tang Yun, there is no place left!" Liu Xin pursed his mouth, and his eyes were full of regret.
"Then let's wait a minute. "Tang Yun has no problem, I just hope that someone will leave after eating.
"Well, I don't know how long we have to wait? The chicken here, but it's limited, and when it's our turn, we don't know if there's any. ”
"Wait a minute, I'll ask!" Tang Yun walked towards the restaurant.
"Do you have a private room here, give me one!" Tang Yun walked into the restaurant and said directly to Xiao Er inside.
"Yes, but it's all booked by someone else. Xiao Er glanced at Tang Yun and said expressionlessly. Although, Tang Yun looks handsome and has a very dusty temperament. But the clothes he wore were really not flattering, and he was a little unworthy of his identity. Xiao Er naturally won't think of him as a big person.
Xiao Er's attitude made Tang Yun frown. "I'm from the Tang family, is there a private room from the Tang family? Tang Yun said coldly.
"Ahh Tang family!" Xiao Er was shocked. The Tang family is in the entire Qingyan Town, but it is a king-like existence, and all people need to see the face of the Tang family. He is a junior who runs the hall, and he dares to put a stinky shelf in front of the people of the Tang family, isn't that looking for death?
"Wait a minute, I'll ask the shopkeeper!" The attitude of the shopkeeper has changed 180 degrees.
Soon, the shopkeeper of the Drunken Fragrance Pavilion came out.
The shopkeeper's vision is naturally not comparable to Xiao Er, he can see at a glance that although Tang Yun is dressed ordinary, he is definitely not an ordinary person.
"This young master, welcome to our Drunken Fragrance Pavilion. The shopkeeper was smiling.
"Is there a private room, give me one!" Tang Yun looked arrogant.
"Young master, today's private room has been decided. However, there is one room where the guests have not yet arrived, and there is probably an hour to go. Have you seen enough?" said the shopkeeper with a flattering smile on his face.
"Good. Tang Yun nodded. An hour was enough time for him and Liu Xin to finish lunch.
"Okay, then I'll arrange it for you right away!" said the shopkeeper immediately.
"Let's go, Xin'er. There is a private room. ”
"Didn't you just say that there is no place?" Liu Xin wondered.
"Someone else pretended, but it hasn't come yet, we have an hour. Tang Yun explained.
"Great. Liu Xin was happy.
The private rooms of the Drunken Fragrance Pavilion are all on the third floor. The location here is relatively high, and you can see almost the scenery of the entire Jiayang Town.
Under the leadership of the shopkeeper, Tang Yun and Liu Xin entered the private room, and soon, several of the store's signature dishes were served. The chicken that Liu Xin has been thinking about has also served on a large plate.
The chicken marinated in a special recipe with mellow white wine gives off an attractive aroma. It makes people have a great appetite when they smell it.
"Let's go. Tang Yundao took the lead in clipping a chopstick. When you eat it, it's delicious. The two of them immediately burst into a feast.
Just as they were having their best eating, they heard a "bang" and the door was kicked open. A gray object was thrown in and landed on the table. When he looked closely, it turned out to be the little second who had led Tang Yun and them to this private room before, but now his nose and face were swollen.
"Bastard, Lao Tzu's private room, you dare to give it to others. An arrogant voice sounded outside the door.
Tang Yun frowned. He pulled Liu Xin behind him, but he didn't expect that he would get into trouble if he had a meal. Obviously, the person who set up this private room has come, and he is still a person who is not very easy to get along with.
"Xin'er, have you eaten well, we have to leave early!" Tang Yun turned his head and said to Liu Xin.
"Hmm!" Liu Xin nodded, although he was not finished yet, but now it seems that he can only leave.
