Chapter 290: Gluttony
The distance between the twelve cities was not far, Chen An and the others set off by cloud boat in the morning, and saw the outline of the city wall of Jinglan City in the evening.
Jinglan City is not the strongest or largest among the Twelve Connected Cities, and the seats of the five big clans in the city on the clan council are not high, but because of the geographical location, it happens to be at the hub of the transportation of the Twelve Connected Cities, so any gathering in the city will usually be held here.
As for the characteristics of the city, it is not much different from Qingfu City from a distance, and the rugged style only ensures safety, but the beauty is nowhere to be seen.
"Jun Deacon".
A soft voice sounded in his ears, and Chen An was stunned for a moment before he realized that he was calling himself. Following the prestige, I saw a slender figure of emerald green coming gracefully, and then I was greeted by a soft face, with dark eyes embedded in a crystal white, lined with a delicate nose, tender red cherry lips and light pink cheeks to render a colorful ink painting.
Chen An recognized that the person who came was Jiang Xijun's maid Jiang Xinyue, when she was ambushed by the Changfeng Army's air ship, she happened to be ordered on another cloud boat, the cloud ship was shot down, but it was not destroyed, and even later pulled back to repair and repair, so many people on the ship were only slightly injured, and she was not even injured, which can be regarded as lucky.
At this time, she gently walked up to Chen An, and her soft and soft voice sounded again: "Deacon Jun, the Lord invites you to come over." ”
I have to say that this woman's etiquette posture and figure are more like a noble lady than Jiang Xijun. And Jiang Xijun is more like the sister next door, or more like the lord.
Chen An nodded, followed behind Jiang Xinyue, and walked towards the cabin, but his eyes were looking up and down on his body, this was not any lust, peeking at other people's sensitive parts, but Chen An subconsciously checked Jiang Xinyue's cultivation realm.
The stronger the qi and blood in the Eastern Wilderness, the more it can carry powerful secret powers, and the stronger its strength will naturally be, and even the magic powers and secret techniques it practices are closely related to its own qi and blood, which is simply unique for Chen An, who practices blood spells, and anyone's cultivation realm is clear at a glance.
Jiang Xinyue in front of him was full of qi and blood faintly rising, almost at the level of six grades, and the strength in his body was vague because he had never practiced supernatural powers, and he was promoted by soul cards. Well, it seems that more than nine out of ten people in the Twelve Cities are promoted by soul cards, and there is no doubt about it.
was thinking about it, but Jiang Xijun's cabin arrived.
Jiang Xijun sat behind a low table, wearing a black placket with a red lining, looking dignified and solemn, and indeed had the attitude of a family of lords.
Jiang Xinyue led Chen An to sit down, but she retreated and closed the hatch, which inevitably led to reverie, but Chen An did not think elsewhere, but carefully determined with Jiang Xijun the specific process of this trip to Jinglan City, so as not to make any mistakes or omissions.
This is the first time that Chen An wants to go to the front of people and deliberately invite fame, because only in this way can he integrate into the high-level of the Twelve Liancheng and influence his decision-making. As for finding the blood knife and pulling it out, Chen An thought about it carefully and found that these two things did not seem to conflict, and it was completely possible to prepare for it with both hands at the same time.
This is the real reason why he was happily ordered to come to Jinglan City, conspicuous in front of people, and the matter of inviting fame is still a big challenge for him, because in the past, he lurked and played some inconspicuous small roles, and this time before he wanted to show the saint, it was inevitable that he would be a little weak-hearted, so he had more information and didn't make jokes at critical moments, which became his top priority.
Therefore, when he was free, he chatted with Shen Lin, a know-it-all, and talked about some customs and customs of the Twelve Cities.
But Shen Lin is not a high-level clan in the end, he is not subordinate to the Gao Yang clan, at most he is a mercenary, and he has a special status. Now that he has the opportunity to talk to the head of the clan, the real high-level of the Twelve Cities, Chen An of course firmly grasped the opportunity and went through some uncertain things with Jiang Xijun.
Of course, in fact, there is nothing to confirm, this trip, it was a clan meeting, to discuss how the Changfeng army really called, how everyone should defend and resist, and then swear a covenant of solidarity and mutual assistance; and then there is the city-state meeting five days later, and the resolution discussed by the major clans at the clan meeting will be conveyed to other small clans and small forces, and they will be ordered to cooperate, and this will be the end.
After five days, everyone embarked on the return journey and went back to set up defenses, but during these five days, they could move freely and see the different scenery of Jinglan City.
This itinerary is simple and clear, and there is really nothing worth confirming repeatedly, so after only a cup of tea, Chen An planned to retire and go to coordinate the cloud boat docking point in Jinglancheng, and contact the reception staff who came to greet Jinglancheng.
It's just that when he proposed to say goodbye, he was stopped by Jiang Xijun, she took out a palm-sized brown money bag and handed it to Chen An and said: "Last time, we were the corpse of the ruin-level demon that we found together, and this corpse is of great use to the entire Gaoyang clan, so you can be regarded as a meritorious service to the family, and the Gaoyang clan will be rewarded for meritorious service under my control, and this Qiankun bag will be regarded as a reward for you." ”
"It's called ...... Qiankun bag?"
Chen An subconsciously took it, and found that it was a tough leather bag, with a twisted pattern on it that was very ugly, and the only thing that could catch the eye might be the golden tassel tied at the mouth of the bag, such a thing turned out to be the reward of the Gao Yang clan?
"Hmm", Jiang Xijun nodded and said apologetically: "Of course, the most precious thing on that ruin-level demon is the supernatural seed, but that thing is of great use to the family and cannot be used as a reward, so I asked the elders for this for you, and its preciousness is second only to the supernatural seed." ”
Chen An said with a confused expression: "What the hell is this?"
This time it was Jiang Xijun's turn to be stunned, she remembered that Uncle Han said that Jun Yueyi was a genius who could resonate with vitality in Daqian, how could she not have heard of Qiankun bag, although this kind of magic weapon is quite rare, it should have been seen in the classics. She didn't know that Chen An was actually not from the Central Plains, but from outside, and after arriving in Daqian, she had never seen a few kinds of mysterious weapons, let alone rare magic weapons.
However, although she didn't know this, she still didn't look down on Chen An, but patiently explained: "This is the gluttonous stomach, there is a secret method in the clan, which can be refined into a magic weapon. Originally, a gluttonous man had nine stomach pouches, but the demon was too infected by evil qi, and only three and a half stomach pouches were available, and this was one of them. ”
"In the form of mustard seeds, hide Sumeru? Isn't that the Xianmen Qiankun bag?" Chen An's eyebrows moved, remembering that he got a Qiankun bag from Yao Qin, which can indeed store a lot of things, which is much more convenient than wrapping.
Jiang Xijun smiled: "The name of the Xianmen Qiankun bag is very atmospheric, but it can only store some trivial things, and the Qiankun bag refined by this gluttonous stomach bag can really make Sumeru mustard seeds, go around the mountains and hide the sea, and when fighting with people, it can even be trapped in the bag, which is a real magic weapon for fighting." ”
Chen An was shocked, can he still trap people? If this is the case, then it is indeed worthy of the name of the magic weapon, he hurriedly opened this ugly thing, and found that the darkness in it was deep and I don't know how big. In a moment of excitement, he actually put his head in, and after the whole head was put in, the inside of this Qiankun bag was still dark and deep, and there was no bottom in sight.
He was playing there excitedly, and Jiang Xijun outside couldn't help but laugh when he saw that his image had become a funny appearance with no head and a palm-sized money bag on his shoulder.
Hearing Jiang Xijun's laughter, Chen An remembered that this was not his cabin, and there were other people, so he quickly pulled his head out of the bag and found Jiang Xijun, who had a gentle face and kept smiling at him. For some reason, he was even more flustered, and he opened his mouth to say goodbye in embarrassment: "Don't be surprised, don't be surprised, your subordinates will get carried away for a while, this, if there is nothing else, I will say goodbye first, oh, by the way, thank you for the family's reward." ”
He spoke incoherently, hurriedly pushed the door and left, provoking Jiang Xinyue outside the door to look at him strangely.
After finally getting out of their sight, Chen An hurriedly returned to his cabin, did nothing, but stared at the Qiankun bag in a daze, how could he be so out of shape just now, where did the city mansion that he had come out of all the years go? Where did the mentality of not being shocked go?
People who are not confused are just now, he was as flustered as a hairy boy, yes, he was just flustered under Jiang Xijun's smiling gaze, and this panic is only three points false, but seven points true.
This made him reflect on himself and ask himself, why?
Is it just because she's more like Sister Qing?
Chen An's eyes couldn't help but fall on the tassel at the mouth of the bag, this is obviously a girl's thing, is it embroidered by Jiang Xijun?
What does it mean that she embroiders this for herself? Like herself?
How is it possible, her own image, how can she like herself, there must be some conspiracy, she wants to use herself, just like Jiang Luhan, using herself as an example in order to be full of the hearts of the foreign cadres, and then bolt herself to her Gaoyang clan's chariot to open up territory for her Gaoyang clan.
It must be so.
But do you like her, why did you subconsciously want to save her when you fell from the Red Moon?
No, no, I just want to use her to quickly integrate into the high-level of the Gao Yang clan, everyone is half a catty, and no one owes anyone...... At most, her appearance and temperament affected her feelings for Sister Qing.
But, it's really like, Sister Qing used to embroider a small purse for herself or something.
And now, Sister Qing may already be the mother of several children......
These children all have the surname Qin......
A violent aura suddenly filled Chen An's chest, making Chen An, who was already confused, suddenly have a hideous expression on his face. His eyes were red, and the veins on his arms were bulging, trying in vain to express the depression in his heart and destroy everything he saw in front of him.
It's just that there is still a trace of clarity in his eyes, and the tenacity does not go, preventing him from doing some irrational things.
"Tuk Tuk Tuk".
A crisp knock sounded at the door at this moment.
Chen An raised his head with red eyes and tyranny.
"Who?"
