Chapter 207: Bigger and Stronger (2)
After staying in the room for a long time, it gradually became dark.
The farther west the waterway went, the slower the light darkened, and the noisy voices of people slowly sounded in the cabin, and everyone went out for dinner. Normally, merchant ships prepare meals, but they have to go to the restaurant in the middle of each floor to prepare the meal.
Sang Ling simply cleaned up and carried the little black cat out of the room. Along the way, there were passers-by, and this cabin was on the upper floor, and most of the monks were monks.
The days on the boat were simple, she was still dressed in an elegant and plain moire robe, the hem of her clothes was clean and not stained with dust, only a white jade-like wrist was exposed at the cuffs, and her palm was sunk into the spirit beast she was holding in her arms.
Spirit beast?!
Everyone was shocked and collectively gasped.
It turned out to be a spirit beast, and it was not a mixed blood inferior, but medium!
Looking at her cultivation around her, her breath is hidden at all. After looking at it like this, everyone suddenly realized that there was a surprisingly talented monk on the ship. Suddenly, countless eyes fell on Sang Ling, and under such heavy attention, her eyelashes did not move any more than three points, and she continued to walk forward calmly.
When everyone saw her so bearing, they were even more discussed.
Sang Ling was not interested in any of this, and walked all the way to the middle of the cabin.
At this time, there were many monks waiting for people gathered at the door of the restaurant, and one of them, a young man in scarlet clothes, stood out from the crowd.
Seeing Sang Ling coming, his eyes were certain, and he ran up with an arrow step, smiling brightly:
"Fairy Wuling, there are a lot of people today, fortunately I came in advance to occupy a seat."
It's Ah Ran.
Since the detoxification of the pot city, Ah Ran walked with them and went to the mountain fog forest together, and on the way Sang Ling gave him the exercises, and now in just a few days, Ah Ran has grown a lot.
After coming and going, everyone became friends, of course, this friendship existed between Sang Ling and Ah Ran. For some reason, Su Luo has always been very hostile to Ah Ran, and always secretly pokes and prodders people with eye knives.
Whenever the two met before, no matter what Su Luo did, he had to be inserted between the two of them as soon as possible, and it was strange that he disappeared today.
Sang Ling glanced back behind her and found that Su Luo still hadn't appeared:
"What about Su Luo? Didn't it come out. ”
The room is divided into men and women, the left and right sides, Sang Ling is located on the west side, and Ah Ran and Su Luo are on the east side, so Ah Ran and Su Luo's rooms are next to each other.
"I don't know, there's no movement in his room, and I didn't see him when I came over."
Ah Ran said a few words, he tiptoed a glance at the crowd, and found that there was no trace of Su Luo, so he glanced at Xiao Er next to him.
The shopkeeper at the door hurriedly said:
"Do you want to dine first? If it is too late, it will also delay the guest officers in the queue behind. If your companion doesn't come, take your meal with you. ”
Sang Ling nodded, and before entering the door, she used the communication jade pendant to send a message to Su Luo.
At this time, the restaurant is full of people, and as soon as you come in, your nose is full of the smell of rice, which is obviously the most lively time.
Sitting down, Ah Ran quickly scalded a new pair of chopsticks and handed it over.
"There are a lot of people now, the back kitchen is very busy, and I have to wait for dinner."
"I stayed on the ship for a few days, and I was prepared." Sang Ling glanced outside the door, but still didn't see Su Luo coming, and there was no response to even the communication jade pendant.
Ah Ran was ordering food with Xiao Er, and after a few brief words, he turned around and met a pair of spirit beast eyes.
It was a pair of green emerald beast eyes, which looked extremely innocent and good-looking.
"Huh? What kind of spirit animal is this? ”
As he spoke, he curiously wanted to reach out and touch Hatsuichi, who immediately bared his teeth and looked back at the past.
Sang Ling hurriedly stopped the claws that were about to stretch out the spikes, and smiled at Ah Ran:
"This is my spirit beast, and I have been in the beast bag before, so you naturally have no chance to see it. However, it doesn't like to live people, so you have to be careful. ”
Ah Ran curiously glanced at the fierce-looking spirit beast, but still withdrew his hand. He had a gut feeling that if he really fought, he really wouldn't be the opponent of this spirit beast.
Thinking of this, he was a little more grateful, if it weren't for the exercises given by the Wuling Fairy before, and the charm that shielded the breath of the demon clan, otherwise he wouldn't dare to take a merchant ship at all, and he was mixed in the monk pile with a bright light, and went to the mountain fog forest.
Then, he brought out more enthusiasm, pouring tea and fanning around Sang Ling.
Xiao Er quickly served the meal, and Ah Ran brought a few more meals to Sang Ling.
"I see that the female cultivators next to me love to eat, and I specially ordered it for the Five Spirit Fairy, you can eat more."
"Wait a ......minute," Sang Ling said, feeling the person behind her, a figure was standing not far away, and blocked the smell of rice with the back of his hand, and as soon as he looked at each other, he called out to her: "Ah Ling." ”
It's Su Luo.
He is dressed very differently today, his original shape is a head taller than Sang Ling, and now this white robe will line him with waist is waist, legs are legs, his figure is tall and good-looking, compared to Ah Ran, he has faded thin and slender, completely, and he is a slender young man's figure.
It's probably because the river wind is too strong, and it makes Sang'er a little confused.
Su Luo walked in front of him, raised his eyebrows and smiled:
"What's the matter, is my sister so hungry that she's in a daze?"
"This is a new garment made at the clothes shop?" Sang Er smiled: "You're here, then let's eat first." ”
Su Luo nodded casually, and was about to sit down, when his body was suddenly lightly bumped.
Ah Ran immediately touched his elbow, but he didn't apologize, hum, it turned out that he was rubbing in the room to change into new clothes. While despising the stinky shamelessness of this male cultivator, Ah Ran picked up the rice spoon and added rice to Sang Ling, his voice turned into water, and said softly:
"Fairy Wuling, I inquired, and said that there has been little water recently, and the boat is moving slowly, so it will take a few more hours. Originally, it was supposed to be in Tianfu City in the morning, but now it has to be in the afternoon. ”
"Afternoon?" Sang Ling subconsciously thought of the spirit piercing talisman that had not been replied to.
Ah Ran got closer, and the neglected male cultivator in the afterglow made a stinky face, and he smiled even brighter:
"I also heard from the servants passing by, because there has been little water recently, and the hull of the ship is moving slowly, they said that the steward has a big head and is considering whether to add spirit stones to urge the merchant ship formation, and move faster. It's just that the spirit stones in his hand are limited, and this method is just a fantasy. ”
Sang Ling's eyebrows moved, and she was really touched by this incident.
Ah Ran happily continued to add food to himself, and Su Luowei at the table narrowed his eyes on Ah Ran's face, slightly dissatisfied, but still did not sit down.
This stinky rabbit named Ah Ran, I don't know where it came from, and he can't shake it off like a dog skin plaster, and he shamelessly wants to make friends with Sang Ling. Hmph, when he doesn't know what this man's intentions are? If you dare to pry the foot of the wall, you also have to see if the shovel is enough to fold!
Ah Ran felt that the cold eyes next to him began again, but the chopsticks in his hand did not stop at all. At first, he was afraid, but later found out that this guy would not do anything to himself in front of Wuling for the sake of his own image, so he was completely relieved.
Su Luo and Ah Ran secretly competed, Sang Ling didn't notice it, and after eating, he hugged Chu Yi to drink tea and eliminate food, and continued to discuss with the mirror of retrogression about wearing spirit runes in the sea of knowledge.
The dishes and chopsticks on the table gradually stopped, the sky completely darkened, and the restaurant was already half empty. She told the plan she had come up with, and Su Luo and Ah Ran had no objections.
After the passers-by basically returned to their rooms to rest, Sang Ling put on her cloak and went to find the steward.
When the steward heard the reason, he hurriedly waved his hand.
"This enchantment is closed, you can't get off the boat halfway, and besides, the guest officers have bought tickets to Tianfu City, and this spirit stone has been spent, so let's sit at the end of the line."
Sang Ling shook her head:
"If I have to get off the ship, what can I do? Don't worry, this spirit stone is given to you, and if it's inconvenient, I can add more. ”
The steward was of course moved when he heard this, but he still shook his head:
"This rule ......"
Sang Ling raised her eyebrows, knowing that the steward was excited, but she didn't have a lot of chips, and she didn't favor the other party's balance, so she took out more spirit stones in one hand and stuffed them into the steward's hand. The other hand summoned the first year, and in an instant, the spiritual power in the room suddenly opened, and the power of the medium spirit beast pressed the steward into a cold sweat.
The steward nodded in agreement without thinking about it, the rules do not exist for monks who can take medium spirit beasts.
The second half of the night.
The trio effortlessly disembarked through the back door of the barrier when the steward docked and needed supplies.
got off the boat, without the barrier of the enchantment, Sang Ling found that the sense of piercing the spirit rune was much stronger, and the information given over there was indeed that the spirit rune was not found Da Mao.
The scenery on both sides of the river outside the window spreads out in front of you.
Zhongzhou has a wide radiation range, adjacent to Guazhou in the west and Zezhou in the east, and the river channel that this merchant ship sails through is the nearest Tianfu City that runs through Zezhou and Linguazhou. It's just that, after all, there is a lot of water in Zezhou, and the scenery on both sides of the strait will become more and more desolate and less water as it moves westward.
Here, it has already reached the westerly position of Zhongzhou, because the terrain is remote, there is no trace of mortal habitation on both sides, the ground is rugged and dense, desolate and decaying. In many places the grass grows taller than a man's waist, and the dead leaves on the ground accumulate thickly. In the darkness of the night, only one or two rustles were heard on the grass, as if a large beast had passed by.
Ah Ran took a breath and looked left and right:
"What is this place? How do I feel like there are many beasts around? ”
Su Luo lazily said:
"Just follow along, nonsense."
Ah Ran was so stunned that he shut up, but his eyes looked to the side aggrievedly. Sang Ling was looking around to identify the direction, but did not receive it.
Ah Ran: ......
Su Luo: "Huh." ”
"Humph!"
Seeing that he dared to hum himself, Su Luo coldly pulled the corners of his mouth and glared.
Ah Ran is just a little scheming little flower, where can it compare to the man-eating flower in front of him, a shrunken rabbit who has become a burrowing rabbit again.
Su Luo snorted coldly, his eyes contemptuous. A stinky rabbit with tea talk will make you a rabbit sooner or later.
Ah Ran suddenly felt cold all over his body for some reason, and he didn't have to guess his toes, so he knew that it was Su Luo who put air conditioning on him again, and hurried to the side of the Wuling Fairy. He looked at the darkness of the night around him, and the non-stop rustling sound made him even more afraid.
The beast is a vegetable melon-like existence for the Jindan monk in the cultivation realm, but it is an extremely troublesome thing for the demon clan who are powerless. Therefore, when Ah Ran was poisoned and temporarily lost his meager demonic power, he was so afraid of hurrying, and asked Sang Ling to go back to the mountain fog forest together.
After all, a demon clan merchant ship can't sit on it, relying only on land transportation, and avoiding monks, it is a very dangerous thing to lose cultivation.
Sang Ling took two steps away and released Chu Yi, and smiled:
"I've been in the beast bag for a long time, and I know you're bored, go ahead, go and open the way for us."
Chu Yi's limbs were strong, he stretched his waist, and glanced at Ah Ran with contempt, and Ah Ran hurriedly gave in. Chu Yi stepped into the grass in front of him, and after a while, the surroundings cleared, and the countless beasts that were gradually surrounding this side suddenly retreated.
She walked straight to the northwest according to the guidance of the spirit talisman.
When the three of them finally saw the city, it was almost dawn, and it was already cool weather, but there was a thin layer of sweat. Especially Su Luo, Ah Ran didn't know if it was because of the man, so he had a lot on his face.
They found a place to sit down and waited for the gates to open.
When I went back to sleep in the beast bag, Sang Ling took out the steamed buns and handed them over to two people.
Su Luo took it first, but he was not in a hurry to eat, but stepped forward with a smile and showed his forehead to the side to Sang Ling.
"You walked fast just now, do you have a veil?"
It's an inquiry, but I can't wipe my sweat with a big steamed bun in both hands.
Sang Ling was slightly stunned, and then Ah Ran also stepped forward with oil on the soles of her feet.
"Me too, Wuling Fairy, you also give me a veil."
looked at the two Sang Ling with smooth and sweaty foreheads in front of him: ......
These two people are in the nursery class!
She crossed her hands.
"Daba, refuse."
Ah Ran had never heard of this word, and was a little puzzled.
Su Luo thought of the previous squatting guard Zhang Guiqing, and burst out laughing. Sang Ling was also touched by the previous memories and laughed tacitly.
At this time, Ah Ran looked at this atmosphere that only they understood, and felt that he couldn't insert it at all, and his eyes were gloomy.
Su Luo looked at Sang Ling's eyes with gentle water, but when the afterglow blew Ah Ran, he only had disdain. Then he deliberately took another step closer and lowered his head.
"Sister, give me a rub."
The tone is low, but the tail note is slightly upturned, and the young voice is like a small hook to try it out, as if returning to the old youth, which makes people soft-hearted.
