Chapter 048: Tianyun City
Due to the lessons of Zangtian Island, Zhao Yue no longer had the idea of finding a random island to live in, but according to the previous plan, he headed directly to Tianyun Island. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
A few months later, after changing ships and identities several times, Zhao Yue finally arrived at Tianyun Island. This time, he used his real name Zhao Yue, revealing his original appearance in front of people. Even the cultivation shows the real late stage of foundation building.
After a few years of fighting, he has fully grown up, slightly taller and stronger than ordinary people, but his face is still the appearance of a teenager.
Of course, physiognomy does not indicate the age of a monk. Because of his strength in the late stage of foundation building, most people will regard him as a monk who is one or two hundred years old when they see him.
At this age, among mortals, he is an old monster. However, among the monks of the later stage of foundation, this is considered very young.
After all, the monk's physiognomy is not directly linked to age, but it also reflects the speed of his cultivation. The faster the cultivation speed relative to others, generally speaking, the younger the physiognomy will be.
No one knew that he was only about twenty years old.
Tianyun Island was still far away, and many monks appeared on the deck. Zhao Yue also took a place on the deck, looking at Tianyun Port in the distance.
Tianyungang is a huge harbor, half natural, half artificial, like a pair of giant arms, surrounded by a bay of mirror-like seawater.
There are many ships moored in the water, most of them huge sea vessels. Aircraft carriers on Earth are as small as toy cars next to cars.
Although there are many ships, they come and go in an orderly manner. The big ship that Zhao Yue was on was directly introduced into the port without any pause, and then slowly docked on land.
Man is a land animal, and even the monks who come and go high yearn to return to the land after many months of wandering on the sea.
Therefore, before they could completely stop, the foundation building monks flew to the dock one after another, and Zhao Yue was no exception.
As soon as he flew to the dock, he found that there was a ban on air here.
Although it was his first time on Tianyun Island, he was not ignorant of the island.
This prohibition is something that even the Jindan monks have to abide by. Although it couldn't really trap Zhao Yue, Zhao Yue didn't want to try the consequences of violating the air ban. On Tianyun Island, there is a Yuanying Grand Monk guarding it.
Out of the dock, you can see a majestic city in the distance. With Zhao Yue's powerful divine sense, he had already detected that it was the main city of Tianyun Island: Tianyun City.
Monks who have just arrived on the island, if they do not want to stay for a long time, can move around Tianyungang without restraint. However, if you want to enter the island, you must pass through Tianyun City.
Of course, Zhao Yue wanted to enter the city.
So, he walked towards Tianyun City, which was dozens of miles away.
Since he didn't stop along the way, many guessed that he wanted to enter the city. Immediately, someone drove the carriage over and greeted him from afar: "This lord, are you going to Tianyun City?" Get into my carriage, as long as five spirit stones, you can send them directly to the city, and you don't have to queue up to enter the city." Even the ID card can be handled in the city, which is very fast. ”
Zhao Yue smiled, it was quite easy for this person to earn spirit stones. He used to have a low-grade spirit stone as a treasure, but now, he doesn't take the five spirit stones to heart. So he nodded and got into the carriage.
The door of the carriage was open in front, and Zhao Yue could directly see the back of the coachman.
The coachman looked to be in his 40s, and he was a third-level Qi refining cultivator. In this life, if there are no adventures, he will be like this.
"My lord, do you think I'm charging a bit too much for this fare? The coachman waited for Zhao Yue to sit down, and asked after starting the carriage.
Zhao Yue could see Tianyun City from a distance, facing this side of the port, which was more than 10,000 zhang wide, with one or twenty city gates open. Except for the gate in the middle that was not opened, there were extremely long queues at the city gates on both sides.
Most of them are for mortals. They are also the longest-ranking team. If you are at the end of the line, I am afraid that it will not be until the afternoon before you can wait for the opportunity to enter the city.
Qi Refining Realm cultivators have special gates to enter and exit, and the queue is much shorter. However, judging from the length of the team and the speed of clearing the level, there is no time to enter the city.
The Foundation Building Realm cultivators and the Qi Refining Realm cultivators entered and exited separately, and the queue was the shortest, but it would take half an hour to complete the clearance.
A carriage like the one he was riding in now with the 'Tianyun' flag did go straight into the city and didn't need to be checked.
However, Zhao Yue didn't want to tell the coachman, he just looked at it, and he knew everything about the situation at the city gate. That was something that only a Grand Cultivator of the Yuan Infant Realm could do, and he didn't want to shock the world.
So, he deliberately said: "Dozens of miles of flat roads cost five spirit stones, which is a bit expensive." ”
"Then you're wronged. When the coachman heard this, he was anxious: "This lord, in our car, you can go directly to the city without queuing like mortals." If you are entering the city for the first time, you can also choose one of the designated restaurants, magic treasure shops, pill shops, and spirit beast shops, and I will take you directly over there. Not only do you not have to wait for an identity jade card, but you can also buy treasures nearby and stay in the hotel to rest. Moreover, it only charges you five spirit stones for the carriage and horses, and does not add any additional money. ”
"Is there anyone who ran away after entering the city and didn't apply for an identity jade card?" Zhao Yue deliberately teased the coachman.
"No one dares to do that. If you don't have an identity certificate, if you are caught, you will have to go to the city lord's mansion to pass the hall. Shame aside, there may be big trouble. Speaking of this, the coachman mysteriously turned around and said: "Someone was found to be a wanted criminal, and he was thrown directly into the mine to mine to die." ”
Zhao Yue smiled indifferently and asked, "I heard that the mountain lord and the island master are going to be selected recently, have you heard of this?"
"Oh, so you're here for this, my lord. Then you've come to the right place when you get into my car. I can send you directly to Shanhaitang, you can apply for the identity jade card and sign up for the competition between the mountain owner and the island owner, and you can do the two things together. However, the fee is more expensive, plus the previous five, you will be charged a total of ten spirit stones. As soon as the coachman heard Zhao Yue's words, he knew that there were many opportunities to make money, and hurriedly fought hard: "Your Excellency, you may not have been to Tianyun Island. This Tianyun City is a long and narrow city, from entering the city to Shanhai Hall, it will take more than half a day, and you will only be charged five more spirit stones......"
"Oh, before entering the city, you have to collect five spirit stones for such a short road, and after entering the city for more than half a day, you only collect five spirit stones, why is this?"
"My lord, don't you know, under the banner of Tianyun City, every time we enter the city, we have to give 4 spirit stones to the city guard. But after entering the city, we don't have to hand over the spirit stones. ”
"Tianyun City is very good at making money. ”
"My lord, this money can't be earned in Tianyun City, it's all taken by the city guards. Of course, they also have to honor the city lord's mansion, but this is not the income of the city lord's mansion. ”
"Oh, you know that very well. Zhao Yue deliberately teased him.
"My lord, I grew up in Tianyun City, and there is nothing here that I don't know. You participate in the Shanhaitang martial arts competition, do you want to change the magic weapon in your hand, I can take you to the best shop at any time......" The coachman is energetic again: "After registering today, I can take you there." ”
"Moreover, there won't be much time left today, and I won't take you around without collecting spirit stones. Tomorrow, if you are still interested, 5 spirit stones a day. ”
Zhao Yue was silent for a while, the coachman was a little anxious, and just when he wanted to say something and fight for it again, Zhao Yue spoke: "It's late today, after I finish registering, you can take me directly to a better inn." Come early tomorrow and we'll have another walk. ”
