readx;? After Li Shaobai slapped the door knocker a few times in front, he took a step back and waited quietly, while Yang Fan kept looking at the decorations in the four places back and forth, with curiosity in his eyes. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Sure enough, you have to be immersed in the scene to truly appreciate what it means to be a person.

Although Shen Tuxuan is a little worse in character, for the house he lives in, it can be described as "luxurious".

Judging from Yang Fan's experience in the Xuantian Continent for nearly nine months, the three stone steps at the door are not as simple as Shentu Xuan's old guy deliberately wanting to let the people who come to visit take two more steps in order to support the façade, because once such a house with its own steps is reported and verified, and the owner of the house does not have the corresponding official title, it will immediately be confiscated and exiled to the army.

The three white marble stone steps, flanked by side patterns carved with auspicious clouds and ruyi patterns, had to be a high-ranking official of the empire to the sixth rank in order to have such decorations on their main house.

On both sides are the bluestone giant lions that are also engraved with ruyi auspicious cloud patterns, instead of the armored stone lions carved with sword inscriptions, which also clearly explains the civil status of the owner of the house.

It turns out that Shen Tuxuan, this old boy, is an official, and he is still a six-rank civil official!

No wonder it's so dragged.

The Imperial Decree clearly stipulates that the number of stages that can be built by civil and military officials of all grades must not be exceeded in the slightest.

Seventh-rank officials need to have two steps in front of the door, symbolizing a status that is completely different from other ordinary people, and sixth-rank officials need to have three steps in front of the door, symbolizing their superior privileged status. As for the fifth and fourth grades up to the top, until the main house of the first-grade master, the number of Taiwan layers is increasing layer by layer, until the eight-story white marble steps are capped.

The reason why each official can only choose one mansion to build this staircase that symbolizes his noble status is also because the imperial officials are worried that someone will buy a large number of houses and courtyards in the city, and then build all the jade steps in front of the door.

In this way, how can it reflect the noble status of the officials?

On top of the eight-step white marble steps, there are also nine steps, but that is only the royal family can enjoy the treatment. Unlike the previous punishment of being exiled to the army and confiscating family property if he did not build a staircase according to the law, if someone other than the royal family privately built nine stairs, it would immediately be punished as a capital crime, and there was no room for turnaround.

In fact, between the eighth and ninth floors of the stairs, there is also a level of stairs, which is specially opened for the seven martial marquis of the empire.

That's right, all the seven adults who were named marquis were all characters who ruled the world with martial arts and immediately calmed the world, and none of them were awarded the title of marquis "under one person and above ten thousand people" by virtue of their background.

The stone steps in front of each marquis's mansion are all carved from eight layers of "green ice fluorite".

Qingbing fluorite, unlike white marble, which is actually just a hard marble, is a real precious jade, even more precious than the Hetian warm jade produced in Haizhou, Tibet, a hundred times more precious; because it is a kind of water attribute ice attribute of the immortal level, it has an excellent fit and tolerance for the ice attribute, even for the cultivation of ice attribute immortals, it is also an extremely practical and rare enough spiritual material.

However, in front of the seven marquis of the empire, it can only be used to repair the steps.

Let's not talk about anything else, after all, this is all in the Central Shenzhou, just to say that in the current Luoxia City, Yang Fan has walked all the way, as if this mansion is not only the most luxurious and high-end he has ever seen in the city, but also the one with the largest area.

On weekdays, there must be a lot of oppression of the common people.

Yang Fan, who was born on the earth and lived on the earth but lived in the Celestial Empire, his impression of Shen Tuxuan instantly dropped by two points again. Although his impression of this shameless Shen Tu Xuan had already fallen to the negative level, at this moment, his heart was once again disgusted by Shen Tu Xuan's code of conduct for a moment.

A person like this who can be so disgusting that he threatens the two of them with tens of thousands of lives, even if he has a lot of money, he will definitely not earn it by himself.

"Squeak-"

The heavy door slowly opened inward, making a dull sound of wood rubbing, interrupting Yang Fan's thoughts.

Soon, a two-person-wide gap opened in the door, revealing a white-haired old man in a dark red robe, one of his silver threads was meticulously combed, and there was no wrinkle on the neat robe. He just stood motionless on the neat bluestone slab behind the door, looking at the two people outside the door expressionlessly.

Obviously, no one moved, and there were only three people present outside the inner door, but the Red Dragon Sword in Yang Fan's hand suddenly emitted bursts of heat, and then, an indescribable sense of crisis surged towards Yang Fan from all directions like a tide, as if he was locked in a transparent glass box at the intersection without clothes, without the slightest sense of security.

The black-gray strip of cloth on the outside of the Red Dragon Sword firmly locked the faint red glow it emitted inside, and it did not leak out at all.

After an instant, this unprecedented sense of panic gradually faded from Yang Fan's heart, and at this moment, he looked at the white-haired old man in front of him, although he still didn't feel any fluctuations in his vitality, but he no longer dared to underestimate him.

The old man squinted his eyes slightly, looked at the young man behind him with unfocused eyes and looked at the young man who turned his head, still expressionless and said lightly:

"Yang Fan and Li Shaobai, my family has already rested, so come with me first. ”

Yang Fan and the two looked at each other, and from the eyes of the eldest brother before, he knew that the feeling of helplessness just now had also been experienced by Li Shaobai. In this way, the two of them couldn't have any thoughts of resisting, and obediently followed the old man to the depths of the courtyard.

"Squeak-"

As both of them entered the courtyard, the heavy gate made another dull noise and closed itself.

Yang Fan turned his head to look at the terrifying scene of no one behind the door, and his heart became more and more jealous of the old man in front of him who was facing away from them.

Walking through the front yard and the courtyard where the servants and guards lived, the two followed the old man, who had never looked back, all the way to a courtyard built in the middle of the mansion, and stopped in front of a door near the middle.

"Go live in first, someone will take you to meet your adults early tomorrow morning." ”

The white-haired old man in the dark red robe finally turned around and said his second sentence, and after seeing Yang Fan and the two enter, he paused his feet that had already stepped out, and continued:

"Don't walk out of the room after the lights go out, or you'll ......"

As he spoke, the old man made an expression on his face, though it only twitched the corners of his mouth, but it made his expressionless face look even more eerie—and continued:

"I am afraid that the consequences of the time will not be something you can afford. ”

After saying this time, the old man left the sight of the two of them, and really disappeared.

Yang Fan blinked his eyes and asked the silent Li Shaobai:

"Big brother, what should I do?"

Li Shaobai found half of the candle from the table in the dark, and immediately reached into his arms, and took out a fire fold in the middle of the night, so that the hut in the dark night finally had a glimmer of light.

Yang Fan has already reached the realm of being able to generate electricity in the virtual room, and seeing at night is naturally not a problem, but although Li Shaobai has cultivated to a level higher than Yang Fan at the beginning, he has not yet comprehended the true meaning of "eyes like torches".

Of course, if he has already experienced this realm, it means that he has comprehended the true meaning of the electricity generation in the void room, and he can see things at night and be meticulous.

Li Shaobai took advantage of the bright light to look around the room, and saw that the tables, chairs, and beds were all available, the bedding and straw mats, and the four treasures were all written, but there was no deliberate difficulty as imagined.

"If you come, you will be safe. I didn't expect the room for us to live in was pretty good, I was worried about whether I would let us live in a firewood room or something, Shen Tuxuan is not invincible in the world. ”

Yang Fan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "What?"

"People are shameless, the world is invincible. ”

Li Shaobai stated such a sentence in a serious tone, as if he was appreciating Shen Tuxuan.

In the dark night, the cold wind was howling, and an expressionless old figure stood quietly under the cold wall before leaving.

Yang Fan walked to the side of the bed with a smile, lifted the futon and checked it briefly, and randomly took out a dozen books from the bookshelf to weigh them, until he looked through all the big and small objects in the room and checked them, and found nothing abnormal, so he lay down on the bed with peace of mind and breathed a sigh of relief.

"This old boy, there is no difficulty for us, and he gave us such a good room to live in?

Yang Fan obviously agreed with Li Shaobai's point of view, thinking that a shameless person like Shen Tuxuan suddenly wanted to lose face, and it would definitely not be for no reason.

However, the two of them couldn't figure out anything just by thinking about it, so they simply fell on the bed together and rested in peace.

Yang Fan, who was lying on the bed, suddenly remembered that when he saw the old man at the door just now, the Red Dragon Sword in his hand actually emitted a strange heat, although it faded in the blink of an eye, but such a long time was enough for him to understand that this was not his hallucination.

Could it be related to that gloomy old man?

But why did the heat only last for the blink of an eye? You know, the time for the two of them to follow the old man in the mansion must have been at least half an hour.

Now calm down and think about it carefully, the Red Dragon Sword at that time not only emitted heat, but also seemed to have a faint ...... A special feeling flowed into Yang Fan's heart.

After last month's precipitation, it seems that there is something faintly in my mind, I hope it can be written into the book, and I hope that "Sword and God" will get better and better.

Thank you for always being with me, and I hope you can stay with me until the end of "Sword and God", thank you.
