Chapter 17: Odd

The danger was far away, he stood still in the mist, unable to perceive the movement for a long time, thinking about the way Beichenxing and Dongfang had explained to him in the distance, he settled down, carried the remnant sword, and walked into the depths of the mist.

The road ahead gradually cleared, and the fog cleared on the way, and in front of him, a huge city appeared.

At one time, there were dense low-rise buildings scattered outside the city walls, but between the buildings, the streets were straight and orderly, and from a distance, it gave people a sense of neatness and order.

This?

Could it be that I accidentally entered the forbidden land of the sect, or some kind of illusion?

He didn't panic, he held the remnant sword and approached the outermost edge of the giant city.

The neighborhood outside the city was silent, and there were no pedestrians, only in the distance, he could see the occasional two or three figures walking by, and when he looked back, he saw that the fog was far away, far away.

"Guest officer, the opening of the store is a reward, and the owner takes out the osmanthus brew to entertain the guests, do you want to sit down and drink a little?"

The small shop on the outer edge of this suburb is located on the side of the road, and when Nanyun arrives here, there are two small and medium-sized shops out of the shop to solicit customers.

The small shop is indeed newly opened, but the diners are sparse, there are two or three people walking by, and their eyes do not fall in the store.

As curious as Nanyun was, with a slight look of concern, he immediately stepped forward and greeted him politely, while the other shops on the side were all closed.

It's not too early to get three poles in the morning.

In addition to Xiao Er, there is also an owner in the store, this scholar is dressed as a scholar, behind the account, the abacus is played quickly, the memory skills are like fine, and people are curious.

He frowned slightly, concentrating on settling accounts, this newly opened dilapidated shop, it seemed that the accounts were extremely complicated, and he couldn't keep busy.

"When I first arrived in your place, I didn't have any money to live with, thank you for my kindness."

This was about to refuse, at this time, Nanyun followed the straight street, and finally saw the name of the giant city, Ancient City.

Ancient City? It is rumored that the strongest sect in Guqi Haizhou is called the Guyan faction, and the sect's residence is the entire Guyan City, this?

No way?

He already knew the origin of the spirit ruins, but he had never been to the three continents where the human race was the most powerful, and the ancient city was only in his imagination, let alone its strength.

After speaking, tilting his head slightly, he looked into the distance, and he could also see the fireworks in the city, where the ancient city was protecting a large number of human races.

He was about to leave.

The little second rolled his eyes and said: "Guest officer, this good wine is hard to come by, and it is also a person who is destined to drink it, and the store you see is empty, in fact, otherwise." ”

Attention was pulled back again, Nan Yun glanced at the owner behind the account desk, and said, "But, I really don't have any money." ”

The reserve that he had just cultivated in the Thousand Dao Sect, he simply put it away, and was simply generous and honest.

"Hehe, the guest officer can drink it with confidence, our store does business, and the benefit is in the long run, if the guest officer misses the taste of this osmanthus brew in the future, and takes care of one or two, it is a gift exchange."

Xiao Er's words made him even more surprised.

This little second brother, can he still be the owner of the owner?

Walk alone, be cautious of what you enter.

Nanyun was about to excuse himself, but the owner finally clarified the accounts, looked up and exhaled, and happened to see Xiao Er and Nanyun talking like this.

"Hehehe, opened today, rare customers, the cost of this store is already extremely annoying, thanks to the loss, but also to be rich in the future, the guest officer to the store a product, it is considered to open a small store?"

This Wenjing scholar opened his mouth, with the arrogance of the rivers and lakes, Nanyun was stunned, and he minded slightly, but it was not easy to refuse.

Listening to the owner's meaning, it has not yet opened, let him drink for free to open the store, and it is auspicious, but it is indeed not a loss.

A good omen is better than a glass of wine.

"I have been warmly invited several times, but if I refuse again, I don't know how to raise it, the owner, it's disturbed." Nanyun walked to the store, and the little two's face changed to joy, no matter how cold the business is, but finally the customer has come.

As he was about to step in, Nagumo looked up and saw that the small shop was called Lethe River.

This name is very strange, and it dares to be named after the Nine Styx River Lethe.

If you want to prosper for financial gain, it is not too auspicious to take the name of Lechuan Water.

Could it be that this drink has the ability to make people forget their worries?

There was only one drinker, he had just sat down, and Xiao Er had already put the bowl and poured wine.

This wine bowl clay porcelain fine burning, glaze wall brilliance, at first glance a little rustic, in fact, rich and poor can be used, not born in the heart of the gap.

It was just a wine bowl, so that Nanyun didn't dare to underestimate this small shop in the suburbs, and when the wine was full, he buckled the table and nodded.

"Slow use of guest officers!"

The picture is auspicious, this store is also generous, full of a large bowl of wine, exuding a charming fragrance of the soul, Nanyun smells, pores are dilated, and there is a sense of heartiness.

Suddenly feeling that this wine was expensive, he looked at the owner, but saw Xiao Er coming over with meat and vegetables and placing them on the table.

The big meat is wide, the dishes are excellent, he is about to get up, and the owner said on the other side: "The guest officer does not need to be surprised, our ancient city has always paid attention to fair trade, the opening is auspicious, the small shop is grateful, and the guest officer is at ease." ”

Xiao Er smiled, walked out of the store, stood under the shed outside the shop, looked into the distance, and waited for the guests to come.

Hey, I don't have half a penny, eat and drink for nothing?

The other party took this opening auspicious omen so seriously that he sat down and began to drink wine and eat meat.

On the side of the road, a large number of exiled terrans emerged from the fog and looked at the ancient city.

The panic on their faces retreated, and these people began to march towards the ancient city, with a large number of livestock in the crowd, but at this time they were in an unfamiliar area, those cattle rushed around, and no one cared, they were fast, expecting to arrive quickly.

The mist rolled upside down, as Nagumo had seen before, away from the crowd.

"Host, here's a visitor, finally a visitor!"

Xiao Er turned around excitedly and shouted to the owner of the store, and Nanyun also heard the movement and got up to watch.

Under the clear sky, before the fog, there was a dense crowd of people walking on the earth, all like fleeing, men, women and children, tired and embarrassed written on their faces, tortured by famine and wind and frost, looking full of wind and dust.

This? How can there still be cattle and spirit animals?

These people are so difficult, how many of them can afford to eat the wine and meat in the store?

At this time, the shops in the suburbs moved like hearing the wind, the signs shook, the doors and windows creaked, and they opened their doors one after another, and Xiao Er received a look of surprise at once.

", it's finally our turn to open, and these people are also going to grab business? It's really unlucky. ”

Xiao Er swept the neighbors with dissatisfaction, and the owner looked at the crowd approaching in the distance with a smile, and said quietly: "Open today, pay attention to taboos." ”

Quickly bowed his head and admitted his mistake, put the rag on his back, and Xiao Er said loudly: "The small shop is open for guests, the drinks and meals are free, all the guest officials, you have passed by, it is better to come in and sit down." ”

This store, just now solemn look, dare to tease me, free?

Nagumo watched quietly.

Xiao Er changed his tricks to attract customers, and a large number of people still didn't come to patronize, they went to other stores like the walking dead, and the guys and shopkeepers of those shops didn't recruit customers, just opened the door, and a large number of people poured in.

also saw that these people were in a bad mental state, Nanyun got up and walked under the shed to watch.

People are hurrying away, and when one shop is full, they turn around and go back to another.

Nagumo saw an acquaintance in the dense flow of people.

No, to be precise, enemies.

Zhao Min was following the flow of people, being dragged forward, they were like frightened fish, as if there was an unknown force driving them, and they couldn't see the autonomy and agility in their eyes at all.

Unexpectedly, he met Zhao Min here, and quickly adjusted his emotions, Nanyun suddenly waved his hand and shouted: "Zhao Min, look here!" ”
