Volume 1 Wandering Dust Chapter 7 Hidden Scales
When everyone arrived at Yehuai City, they only felt that the martial wind here was very heavy.
In the center of Yehuai City, there is a hundred-zhang wide ring, and there are Tianjun's subordinates sitting around the ring every day, called the ruling envoy, not only to maintain order, but also to adjudicate big and small matters.
In Yehuai City, if there is a conflict, as long as it is not a violation of law and discipline, it is mostly a private negotiation, if both parties are unwilling to give in, they will be witnessed by the ruling, and they will come to power to divide the victory and defeat, and even divide life and death, in addition, those who dare to fight in private will be punished.
Tao Mingxue didn't go with Qianhe, she was really shy in her pocket, and she was embarrassed to let the other party spend money.
She came to a baked cake stall and asked, "Boss, how do you sell this?" ”
"Two pennies a piece."
"Two pennies...... Suddenly not hungry. ”
As soon as the words fell, he turned to leave, not daring to look at the eyes of the boss behind him.
Then he took out a small money bag, poured it into his hand, and counted it several times, no more, no less, exactly twenty-three wen.
"If I go to Ziwei Mountain tomorrow, it should be better."
She walked around, but she didn't find a suitable inn, either it was too expensive, or it was full of customers, after all, the gate of Ziwei Mountain was about to open, and young cultivators from all over the Nine Heavens came two or three percent, and they all crowded into Yehuai City.
After looking for a while, she saw an inn with a sign of twenty wen.
She. Hurriedly walked in and said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, I want the cheapest room." ”
"Forty-five."
"Forty-five?" She pointed to the sign on the side and asked, "Isn't there twenty texts written here?" ”
"Ah, is it still twenty wen? Hi, I'm sorry. ”
The shopkeeper beckoned Xiao Er, and after giving two orders, Xiao Er changed the sign of Twenty Wen.
"Girl, I'm really sorry, this sign was hung up yesterday, and I forgot to pick it up."
"I don't live ......"
She turned around and was about to leave, when she saw Chizuru walking down the street with a blank face, looking at a loss, and immediately chased after her.
When Qianhe saw Tao Mingxue, he turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by the other party.
"What are you hiding?"
"I have no money."
"When will I ask you for money?" After thinking for a moment, she asked, "Do you really have no money at all?" ”
Chizuru reluctantly took out the money bag and poured out a penny.
Seeing this, Tao Mingxue smiled bitterly, "Two big living people who have gone away can't make up half a tael of silver, alas." ”
She took out three pennies, patted them in Qianhe's hand, and said, "Buy two baked cakes for dinner, and see you tomorrow in Ziwei Mountain." ”
In a small town in the north of Shengyuan Tian, Qiancheng ordered a large table of dishes.
While eating, he said to the old vegetable head: "I only realize now that I am already praising you by calling your dish pig food." ”
The old cabbage grabbed a chicken leg, sniffed it, and said, "It feels similar to what I did." ”
"It's pretty much the same, you taste it yourself!"
"That's what you said, not what I want to eat!"
The old vegetable head bites into the chicken thigh, and the chicken leg is only left with bones.
After the two of them had eaten and drunk enough, Qiancheng took out some silver, stuffed it into the old cabbage, and said, "You can find a place to settle down by yourself." ”
"What, it's uncomfortable to be with me?"
"I'm going to a very dangerous place, and I may not be able to come back."
"Then you can give me all the money, if you can't come back, won't all that money be wasted!"
Qiancheng cut it, ignored the old vegetable head, and left on his own.
Outside the city, the sky was already a little dark, and Chizuru flew in the air and found a lake.
"Are there any fish......
Suddenly, it rained in the sky, and Chizuru had to stop and find a place to live.
A fire came from a ruined temple, drawing him in.
As soon as he reached the temple gate, a sword broke through the door, hanging in front of him, and the tip of the sword pointed at his eyebrows, as if it was about to pierce him in the next second.
"What people!"
There was a deep voice from the temple, and the tone was cold, like the edge of a sword.
"I went to Ziwei Mountain to worship Sanmen, and I wanted to come in to take shelter from the rain."
The sword slowly entered the temple, and Chizuru followed into it.
A young man dressed in a black suit and holding a sword in his arms sits cross-legged in front of a campfire.
On the fire were two carps, each weighing about half a catty.
Chizuru smelled the fragrance of the fish skin bursting in the fire, and couldn't help but say, "Can you give me one?" ”
He took out a ball of oiled paper from his bosom, opened it, and found two baked cakes lying inside, and then handed it to the young swordsman.
"I'll exchange it with you."
The boy frowned, not thinking it was a good deal, but seeing Chizuru's sincere gaze and his age of four or five years younger than him, he still took a pancake from Chizuru's hand, which was considered a tacit approval of the deal.
Chizuru understood, picked up the grilled fish, tore off a piece of fish and stuffed it into his mouth.
Although it was hot, he swallowed it with hot breath and exclaimed, "It's so good! ”
"No seasoning."
"That's also very good, as long as it smells of fish, I can swallow it raw!"
"It's weird......"
The young man broke open a piece of baked cake, slowly put it in his mouth, chewed it and ate it slowly.
"By the way, my name is Chizuru, what's your name?"
"Hidden scales."
"Hidden scales?" Chizuru looked at the fish in his hand and asked, "What do you mean by hiding the scales?" ”
Zangxue ignored the other party's words, and just ate the cake silently.
It was late at night, Tao Mingxue stood under an eaves to avoid the rain, and she couldn't help but be a little worried about Qianhe's comfort, although she was not familiar with the other party, but because of the relationship between the other party and Xuanzhi, she still wanted to take care of it more or less.
She took out a baked biscuit, took a bite, and frowned more and more she chewed.
"The alkali is too big......"
……
On the east and west sides of Yehuai City, there are two mansions each, one is Yehuaijun's mansion, and the other is the first family of Shengyuantian, the Ye family.
Ye Huaijun is also a member of the Ye family, before he became the Heavenly Monarch, the Ye family has always firmly held the position of the Heavenly Monarch of the Holy Yuan Heaven, because the Ye family is too powerful and there are many strong people, even if it is the leader of the alliance, it is not easy to attack them.
After knowing that Ye Huaijun became the Heavenly Monarch, things took a drastic turn.
Ye Huaijun first gave up the name of Ling Jun, which had been used by the Ye family, and then, while putting on the appearance of being the head of the Ye family, he secretly supported his own forces, until he erected a ring in the center of Yehuai City and turned Yehuai City into a martial place, and he really stood on the opposite side of the Ye family.
And the Ye family will not let the other party come to him, but he has never found a chance.
Until Tianjiao was lost in Shengyuan Heaven, a crack was opened in an instant in the originally balanced situation, and the Ye family also found the best opportunity......
"Grandpa!"
"Sheng'er, you're here."
"Grandpa is looking for me, do you have something to explain?"
Ye Enbo looked at Ye Sheng and said slowly: "When you go to Ziwei Mountain tomorrow, you can grasp it and take a chief position." ”
"I don't know...... The world is so big, there are many capable people, and the world I see is only Shengyuan Tian after all. ”
"It's best that you can think like this, but the Ye family needs to let the world know who is the true master of Shengyuantian."
"Isn't the second uncle the Saint Yuan Heavenly Monarch?"
"Ye Jing? Hmph, he is no longer a member of the Ye family. ”
Ye Enbo waved his hand, and the people around him handed over the brocade box in his hand to Ye Sheng.
"If you take this, you must take the position of chief tomorrow!"
