Chapter Fifty-Eight: Liyang City
Five days later
A three-hundred-meter-long giant ship with a substantial cyan aura slowly pierced through the thick clouds and flew towards the city on the ground.
Sensing the change in the flying boat, everyone stepped out of the cabin and stood on the deck and looked down.
On the ground is an endless spiritual field, a verdant spiritual valley, bending down heavily, swaying with the breeze.
A monk wearing Taoist robes stood beside the rice field, pinching the magic trick in his hand to perform the spiritual rain technique, condensing dark clouds in the air and falling a little rain and dew.
There are Lingnong with short sleeves and rolled trouser legs, bending over in the field to hoe weeds and eliminate insects.
The giant ship continued to fly, and a huge crater with a depression in the center appeared in everyone's field of vision.
Around the crater, there are dense attics, like termite nests, covering the entire mountain, bustling with people, constantly shuttling in it, like busy ants.
"Smoke! There is smoke! ”
Xiao Ling'er pointed to the center of the crater and shouted milkily.
Xu Mu looked over and found that in the center of the crater, white mist was constantly rising, and the whole mountain was like a chimney.
"Xianggong, what's going on?" Ye Yingying asked curiously.
Everyone else also looked at Xu Mu, they were all coming to Liyang Sect for the first time, and they didn't know the situation here.
In fact, Xu Mu was also here for the first time, but he found out a lot of news during this time, so he happened to know what was going on.
"That's smoke from the eruption of the Earthfire!"
According to the information he obtained, the sect of the Liyang Sect was built on the active volcano, relying on the formation to extract the power of the earth fire for its own use.
If nothing else, the crater in front of you should be the active volcano where the Liyang Sect is located.
The city below the mountain was the destination of their trip.
Liyang City.
Xu Mu talked to a few people for a while about the news he had obtained, and the flying boat had slowly fallen to the ground.
A few people followed the flow of people and walked off the flying boat and entered the city.
Compared with the Fang City where I stayed before, it is much more prosperous from Yangcheng.
The streets are wide enough for six carriages to travel together.
The shops on the side of the street, any one of them are three or four stories high, carved beams and painted buildings, beautiful.
Fu Zheng shop, magic weapon shop, Dan pharmacy, spirit beast shop, robe shop, all kinds of shops, simply abound.
In Fang City, almost every magic weapon has precious and abnormal third-order magic weapons, third-order elixirs, and third-order talismans are also very common.
Most of the pedestrians on the street are wearing robes, surrounded by spiritual light, and their temperament is extraordinary.
In Xu Mu's perception, monks in the late stage of Qi cultivation abound, but they are not rare, and they can be encountered from time to time.
However, the foundation building period is still rare, and they have not seen a single one along the way.
Although Liyang City is prosperous, it is obviously still dominated by the Qi training period.
It's too difficult to advance in the foundation building period!
It would be good to have an advance in the late stage of a hundred Qi cultivators.
However, Xu Mu could feel that although it was the same Qi training period, the Qi training period of Liyang City was obviously more vigorous, and the combat effectiveness could not be compared, but if it was to build a foundation at an advanced level, the monks of Liyang City would obviously have an advantage.
This is also a very normal situation!
Because only those who have no hope of advancing will think of going to Fang City to take risks and seek opportunities.
The same was true of the original owner back then.
The original owner was not born in Baihefang City, but was born near Qinghe City, because the progress of cultivation was too slow, so he followed the Qinghe Sword Sect's wasteland development team to Baihefang City.
It's just that this time I went, that is, half a lifetime, and I never went back to the past.
He once stayed in Qinghe City, although Qinghe City was prosperous, it was still several times worse than Liyang City.
According to the information he collected, there were three Jindan Ancestors in the Liyang Sect, one of whom was in the late stage of Jindan, and his strength could be said to be far superior to that of the Qinghe Sword Sect.
With such a strong strength, it is difficult for Liyang City to be prosperous or not.
I just don't know how prosperous the city where the Yuanying Sect is located should be!
Xu Mu suddenly felt an urge in his heart to see it in this life.
A few people like Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, wandered around the city for a while, and then found an inn to live in first.
After settling several people, the next day, Xu Mu came to Yaxing, which was in charge of renting a house, alone.
"I don't know what kind of house this fellow Taoist wants to rent? Is it a single room, a detached house, or a separate cave house? ”
The tooth man in charge of the reception asked with a smile on his face.
"You can still rent a cave here?"
Xu Mu was quite shocked in his heart.
The so-called cave mansion is actually a mansion built on the spiritual vein.
Because the spiritual veins are generally in the mountains, the mansion is usually a hole, so it is customarily called a cave.
"Of course you can rent it! As long as the guest comes out of the spirit stone, even if it is a blessed land, we can help you get it! The tooth man laughed.
“……”
Xu Mu naturally didn't believe this.
Dongtianfu Land is an independent secret realm, precious and abnormal, and it is often the root of a sect.
Not to mention the Liyang Sect, even the Tianhe Sect may not have it.
The tooth man in front of him was clearly bragging.
Xu Mu didn't bother to demolish him.
"I want to rent a separate courtyard!"
He now has a huge amount of 30,000 spirit stones in his hand, and although Liyang City is prosperous, it is not a problem to rent a small courtyard.
"Guest, please come with me!"
Hearing that Xu Mu wanted to rent a yard, Yaren's eyes immediately lit up.
He took Xu Mu into the living room of the inner hall, poured tea, and took a map.
"Guests, please see, there are vacant courtyards in these areas! Like this location near the south gate, close to Willow Street is the most lively, only forty lower grade spirit stones per month, and the location of Little Sweet Water Lane, close to the foot of the mountain, surrounded by the spirit stream left from the mountain, the aura is much richer than other places, only eighty lower grade spirit stones per month......"
The tooth man pointed to the map and introduced Xu Mu one by one.
"Is there anything better?" Xu Mu frowned.
What the other party said sounded good, but in fact, most of these positions were still in the outermost periphery, and even the protective array could not be enveloped.
"Yes, of course!"
Seeing that Xu Mu was not satisfied, the tooth man was even happier, and he hurriedly drew a few more positions.
"These locations can be said to be good, like the courtyard of Pear Blossom Lane, but it is directly connected to the spiritual vein of Liyang Sect, although it is the tiniest branch, but the spiritual energy is more than twice as strong as the outer city! And this one is even better, there is a spiritual plantation nearby, not only is there enough spiritual energy, but you can also grow your own ......"
The tooth man's eyebrows fluttered, but Xu Mu was a little uncertain, because the position was too good.
"Let's talk about the rent first!"
"Absolutely! Like this place in Pear Blossom Lane, 500 spirit stones a month, Gongyue Street this 800 spirit stones a month ......, and the most expensive place is only 1,700 spirit stones a month! ”
“……”
Still?
Why don't you grab it?
Originally, Xu Mu felt that he should be considered a rich man with 30,000 spirit stones, but at this time, it seemed to be like that.
Under the leadership of Yaren, Xu Mu looked at a few places and chose a courtyard in Qinghuai Lane.
Six hundred low-grade spirit stones per month, the spiritual energy content exceeds fifty percent of the outside world, there are eleven houses, with a pool, and a garden.
However, Xu Mu is more interested in its seclusion.
The surrounding houses are all independent, and the nearest ones are three feet away.
Don't worry about safety either.
There is a defensive formation in the courtyard, and there are patrols in the vicinity every day, because of the proximity to the Liyang Sect's medicine field, both the number of patrols and the strength of the patrol team far surpass other places.
The rent in Liyang City is already expensive, Xu Muyuan's location is good, the place is big, and it is still understandable that there are six hundred lower grade spirit stones.
After signing the deed and paying the rent for half a year, this place belongs to him temporarily.
After bringing a few people over, they were all pleasantly surprised.
Even the wealthiest Lan Shijin has never lived in such a good place.
The layout of the house is such that there is a three-storey attic in the center, with seven rooms up and down, and a row of houses near the main entrance, with a total of four rooms.
Xu Mu and Ye Yingying lived on the second floor of the attic, Lan Shijin and Leng Yuening lived on the first floor, and Zhang Shouren lived in the house with his grandson and Ouyang Ying.
No matter how polite Xu Mu is, the identities of the two of them are also his domestic servants, and it is impossible to be in the same building with him.
Both of them are not three-year-olds, and they are very self-aware.
In fact, even if it was a house, if it was rented out alone, the two of them would not be able to afford to live in it.
If Xu Mu is frugal, he can rent it out separately and save an expense.
So the two are still grateful.
After all, a large part of the reason is that Xu Mu is willing to accept them because of his affection for his peers all the way, otherwise he can buy a few young and capable ones by spending some spirit stones casually.
In fact, Xu Mu did have this idea, not to drive the two away, but to buy a few maids.
Not long ago, Leng Yuening also showed symptoms of pregnancy, although it is still uncertain, but there will definitely be more and more children in the future, and several of them have to cultivate, and they have no time to take care of them at all.
Therefore, it is imperative to build a family.
But there's no rush for now, at least not yet.
At night, occasionally Lan Shijin can help take care of Xiao Ling'er, during the day, Zhang Shouren and Ouyang Ying can watch, Leng Yuening can also help, Ye Yingying is still six or seven months away from giving birth, and she doesn't need anyone to take care of her for the time being.
Xu Mu decided to spend a few months, completely get used to the environment here, and then think about buying a maid.
Also consider the issue of income!
After cultivating to break through the seventh layer of Qi training, Xu Mu was ready to buy a third-order pill and refine a third-order pill.
With the benefits of chalcedony pills, in the face of increasing demand, it is obvious that there is something that cannot be grasped.
When you move to a new home, it's natural to celebrate.
Several women took the remaining demon beast meat and made a big meal, Xu Mu took out the spirit wine that he had snatched from Luo Xu's hand and drank it with everyone.
After Xiao Ling'er fell asleep, Xu Mu and Ye Yingying were finally able to get through for a while.
When Ye Yingying fell asleep tiredly, Xu Mu went downstairs again, pushed the door and entered Leng Yuening's room.
Lan Shijin, who was practicing, was interrupted many times by the voice next door, and her teeth were itching.
"These two people don't know how to post a mute note! Ning'er is really, so, so, hum! Tomorrow I have to talk about her! ”
In order to avoid going mad, Lan Shijin had no choice but to stop practicing and lie down to rest.
It's just that the voice has been lingering in her ears, making her heart like a cat scratching.
The face is getting redder and redder!
The hand was unconsciously placed in a position that was a little prickly.
Lan Shijin's heart trembled again, thinking of the scene in the cave, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, so she posted a mute note in her room.
