Chapter Ninety-One: The Tea Maker
A day later, Xuanye looked at the majestic city in the distance and couldn't help but exclaim.
Unlike Dongzhou, the major sects occupy the treasure land of Lingshan, and the monks are mostly sect masters, so the general cities are built relatively ordinary, and even the relatively prosperous Yunsheng Mansion is mostly inhabited by civilians.
And there are many people in Yunzhou, almost everyone is mainly cultivated, even if it is a folk man on the road, he may be a monk in the condensation period.
Therefore, the city will be built more grandly, and the city walls alone are tens of meters high. There are dozens of organ towers on it, which are led by the formation, involving the large array of city protection, and the defense strength is much higher than that of ordinary small sects.
The city was also divided into two floors, as well as areas for the common people and for the monks.
The most shocking thing is the tall tower in the center of the city, which occupies an extremely wide area and can accommodate thousands of people, and is also the residence of the royal family here.
This time, Yuan Wen did not break into it directly, but landed at the gate of the city.
I still have some feelings for this former fiefdom. In addition, this time, he did not come to kill people, but to see if it was really as Yan Lin said, under the rule of the Lin family, the whole country would really live and work in peace and contentment?
Of course, even if this is true, it does not prevent him from overthrowing the Lin family. Therefore, another purpose of coming here is to recover the old forces that were once planted in the city.
It's just that two hundred years have passed, and the original leader of the organization should have died, and with the fall of the old dynasty, I don't know if it can survive.
After the three of them dressed up in disguise, they successfully passed the inspection of the city gate guards.
After stepping into the city, Yuan Wen looked at the street, both familiar and unfamiliar, and then raised his eyes to look at the tower, the former banner has been replaced, and it has become a big Sichuan character.
After staring at it for a long time, he withdrew his gaze and walked towards the civilian area.
Xuanye looked at the clothes worn by the pedestrians on the road, and there was not much difference from Dongzhou, it may be that the two places were close, and the customs and customs were also comparable.
After wandering around the civilian area for a while, Yuan Wen finally made a discovery. A flag hung in a tea shed has a special symbol on it.
He glanced at the tea maker in the tea shed, frowned deeply, and then was relieved.
Xuanye also followed his gaze to see the man, who looked like he was only in his early thirties, with a yellow face and thin muscles, and a broken arm, but he was extremely skilled in pouring tea, and he should have done it for a long time.
As soon as a few people came to the tea shed and sat down, the tea maker stepped forward to greet him warmly.
"Three masters, what kind of tea do you drink? What kind of pastry do you want? ”
"Is there a Velvet Spring?" Yuan Wen said lightly.
"Hey, this master is a person who knows how to drink tea at a glance, and there is just a small packet, which is the price..."
"I don't mean anything else, it's just a small business, it's not easy, a few masters understand."
Xuanye took out a piece of gold and put it on the table, "Let's have a pot, and I can have some refreshments." ”
The tea maker's eyes suddenly glowed golden, he picked up the gold and wiped it on his body, and after seeing the revealed luster, he quickly turned around and ran to make tea.
"Venerable Master, you must have admitted your mistake, did you? I don't look at that person, I don't look like it..."Xuan Ye whispered.
Yuan Wen did not answer, but waited quietly. Until the tea maker brought the tea to the table, he did not drink it directly, but drew a symbol on the table with the tea.
When the tea maker saw the symbol, his body stiffened, and his hand holding the cage drawer was also in the air.
"Riding in the wind and snow." Yuan Wen whispered.
The tea maker was stunned for a moment, looked at Yuan Wen carefully, and then put down the cage drawer, but did not answer, but turned around and went back to continue to add firewood and boil water.
Yuan Wen's eyes sank, and he didn't ask any more questions, he picked up the tea and took a few sips, "This tea was picked by Xinyun Mountain." ”
The tea maker was silent for a long time, and then he said in a sullen voice: "Indeed, only the Rongquan tea leaves there will have a little strange fragrance, and not connoisseurs can't taste it at all." ”
Xuanye is not so particular, lately he has been sleeping in the open air, taking the opportunity to eat a few mouthfuls of refreshments, gobbling up, and those who don't know think that the starving ghost has been reincarnated.
Jiang Ningyue hadn't eaten serious food for a long time, and she couldn't bear the hunger in her stomach, but she was much more elegant in her appearance.
"Why shouldn't you whisper?" Yuan Wen asked straight to the point.
The tea maker sighed helplessly, "You're late, look at my hand, what else can I do for you?" It's better to let me live and survive. ”
"Hmph, when did the descendants of the wolf fang become so spineless, and what about the others?"
The tea maker shook his head, and then showed a wry smile, "What else is there?" The leader of the wolf's fangs also passed away a hundred years ago, and this is the third generation to pass it on to me. As for the others you mention..."
His expression darkened, and he turned his head to look at the tower in the distance. "In that tower, the women are prostitutes, the men are slaves, and how many are alive, who knows. You're late! ”
"What's up with your arm?" Xuanye interjected.
The face of the tea maker was even more sad, "Of course it was beheaded, it can't be broken by myself." ”
He skillfully poured hot water, carried it to fill them up, and then bowed to Yuan Wen. "Don't blame anyone, we also tried to go in and save it, but we didn't succeed, and we lost an arm. The leader of the wolf's tooth passed down the testament and vowed to wait for the royal bloodline to return, but a hundred years ago, the Lin clan thoroughly investigated the rest of the party, and the damned ones died, and the ones who didn't die were also arrested. ”
"In the third generation, there are not many people left. Until I took over as the little boss and went with the leader to rob the prisoners, and they all died. I'm also a good fortune teller, and I didn't show my face, otherwise my head would have fallen to the ground a long time ago. ”
After listening to the tea maker, Yuan Wen looked indifferent and asked in a low voice. "Anyone else locked up in that tower?"
"I don't know, it's better to die, the province is tortured." The tea maker said that he was out of company, and went back to add firewood and boil water.
After Yuan Wen got the answer, he got up and left. There was not much hope in my heart, two hundred years is not a long time for the Yuanfu period, but it is difficult for ordinary monks in the Mixed Spirit Period to live past this age.
Now that the situation has changed, it is reasonable that these people have not survived.
It's just that the Lin family is so ruthless, and he will never be polite. In addition to these forces, he also put down the secret treasure in Xinyun Mountain, and after retrieving it, he directly killed the imperial capital!
But before that, this tower, which once served as his mansion, could not be kept!
"Wait a minute, sir."
The tea maker hurriedly ran out, looked around, and asked, "My lord, this direction are you going, but that tower?" ”
"So what? It doesn't matter to you anymore, go back and live the rest of your life well. After Yuan Wen finished speaking, he turned around and walked away.
"My lord, can you bring the villain with you! I still know some old people, maybe..."The tea maker lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "I should have died there back then, but it was the leader who sacrificed his life to save me, although I am the only one left, I must complete his old man's mission!" ”
Yuan Wen walked forward without looking back, and left a sentence lightly. "Whatever you want."
The tea maker was overjoyed, hurriedly chased after him, and introduced himself: "My name is Wolf Mu, and you should have let out a fart when I said it before." ”
Xuanye was curious about why the attitude of the tea maker changed so quickly, and when he saw the armor and a bunch of strange things that the other party had taken out, it seemed that he had already prepared.
If so, why did you just say those things in the tea shed?
A few people walked on the street, quite conspicuous, especially the armor of the wolf wood, which attracted the attention of many pedestrians. After a while, it provoked the city guards to investigate.
Yuan Wen was going to make a move, so naturally he would not be polite, with a wave of his hand, the scattered energy directly slapped several city guards on the wall, and with great force, he pressed them into the wall, and the seven orifices bled to death.
"A traitor, a traitor! They're here in the Heavenly City! I don't know who shouted, and the people around them dispersed.
"My lord, maybe we have to step up, and the city guards should be here in a while." Wolf Wood reminded.
Yuan Wen responded, opened his hand to condense spiritual power, and after enveloping everyone, he flashed straight to the tower.
"What people!" As soon as the guards guarding the door spoke, they were pierced by two rays of qi and died instantly.
Xuanye followed the swagger into the tower, stepped into the courtyard, only to find that the decoration here is extremely luxurious, flowers and plants reflect each other, clear water and cold pools, carved stone and jade, even the ground is laid out, are coarse jade.
Not to mention the huge pillars that build the tower, the golden light is shining, and the green tiles and vermilion eaves on it are displayed with red flags. Two gates, one of which is a flying dragon in the clouds, and a phoenix in the second class. Everywhere you look, it's extravagant, but it's just as vulgar.
Xuanye didn't expect Yuan Wen to like this style before, but looking at his frowning brows, it didn't seem to be like it.
Push open the two red doors, the tower is even more luxurious, full of pearls, jasper for the ground, immersion gold inlaid columns. Silk tents, fluttering in it.
But in contrast, there is foul air, dumped wine jugs all over the floor, and a group of ragged women cleaning up.
"Lan'er!" The wolf wood exclaimed in surprise and ran away, and within a few steps, he was knocked to the ground by the sudden whip that was thrown at him.
"Where's the beggar? Who allowed you to break into here? ”
In the midst of the silk tent, a woman with a long whip came out. The body is charming, the clothes are revealing, just like the woman in the green building, twisting the waist of the water snake, extremely coquettish.
But the expression on her face was extremely disgusted, and it wasn't until she saw Yuan Wen that she was slightly stunned, as if she was also attracted by this luxurious temperament, and immediately accompanied her smile.
"Oh, who is this? Forgive the little slave for being clumsy, why didn't this doorman report it~"
"Get out!" Yuan Wen let out a low shout, and the shocked woman took a few steps back, her face pale.
The woman gritted her silver teeth and said angrily: "You are so rude, this is Lin Chuan Palace, even if you are a royal family, you must be measured when you come here!" ”
Yuan Wen was too lazy to speak, and the warning was useless, so he immediately sacrificed the golden jade spirit pen and condensed ink out of thin air.
"You dare!" As soon as the woman's words came out, two ink blades rolled over, and her face immediately froze. Where the ink blade rolled over, two red lines slowly floated, and fine blood water flowed out of it, completely dead.
When the servant who followed the woman saw this, he immediately fell to his knees and trembled.
Seeing this, Wolf Mu stepped forward, pulled a woman from the pile of servants, and asked with concern: "Lan'er, it's me!" I'm a wolfwood! ”
