"Su Qin!"

A young man walked through the side street and greeted Su Qin in a loud voice.

"Cao Bangyan?"

After thinking about it for a while, Su Qin recognized the other party, it was the person he had met in the winter hunting war, and the two sides also jointly entered the valley inhabited by dozens of two-horned rhinoceros to pick Yuanchun fruits, but unfortunately they broke up in the end.

"Brother Su, it seems that you still remember me. Why do you have time to come to Liucheng to play? Seeing that your aura is not weak, it can't be that your cultivation has surpassed me, right?"

Now that only a few months have passed, Cao Bangyan seems to have forgotten the initial unpleasantness, and when he came closer, he patted Su Qin's shoulder affectionately and asked about the latter's current situation.

But Su Qin was still not very adaptable, he bared his teeth when he heard this, and glanced behind Cao Bangyan a few times, but he didn't see the appearance of Song Lin and the Lu brothers, so he reluctantly said: "Brother Cao, of course I remember you, we have experienced a small catastrophe together, and I still appreciate your character." I happened to get some good things this time, but it was not suitable for my own use, and I planned to get it here to sell it, I heard that there is an auction house opened by the Jiuxia Chamber of Commerce, and some precious things are just looking for them to help identify and evaluate. ”

"It turns out that you are going to auction something, I thought you heard about the Bell and Drum Tower, and you want to go to see the excitement. Cao Bangyan said with some surprise.

"Bell and Drum Tower, what are you looking for?" Su Qin was confused.

"Hey, why don't you even know about the annual Bell and Drum Tower Conference in Liucheng? This is a grand gathering that can attract all the soul cultivators within a radius of seven hundred miles every year. Cao Bangyan's tone was as if he was saying something that was taken for granted.

"What is the Bell and Drum Tower Conference for? Is it related to soul cultivation?" Su Qin vaguely heard some clues, and suddenly became interested.

"That's right, it's related to soul cultivation, this is not a place to talk, let's find a restaurant to eat and talk at the same time. ”

Cao Bangyan beckoned, led the way first, and went to a familiar restaurant for dinner.

At this departure, he realized that Wang Dashun's cunzài, realized that the latter was coming from the same road as Su Qin, and hurriedly apologized, and then the two sides exchanged names, so that they knew each other.

When he came to the restaurant and sat down, Cao Bangyan took the initiative to help order a few special dishes here, and then carefully introduced them to Su Qin.

"In the middle of our Liucheng, there is a bell and drum tower, which is said to have been built by a soul cultivator many years ago, if someone uses a powerful soul cultivator to urge the bell and drum on the top of the building, it will transmit a special sound, directly into the soul, producing unexpected effects. And this effect is closer to the top of the building, the more obvious it is, but the test of climbing the building is also great, without a certain qualification, perseverance and luck, it is absolutely impossible to climb. As long as you can climb to the fifth layer, you will be recruited by the city lord, and if you climb to the sixth layer, not only will the specifications of the solicitation be improved, but you will also be able to get a unique second-order formation map, which will be of great benefit to the formation master. ”

He was obviously very familiar with the situation, and when he finished speaking in one breath, Su Qin was a little stunned when he heard it, not to mention Wang Dashun, who had an honest personality, didn't react at all, his eyes stared straight ahead, as if he didn't understand what he had heard.

"Therefore, the bell and drum tower has six floors, and during the conference, there will be a master of soul cultivation urging the bell and drum on the top of the building, and then many gathered soul cultivators will climb this tower together, whoever is afraid of being high will get more benefits, is that right?" Su Qin sorted out his thoughts for a while and asked slowly.

"That's pretty much it," Cao Bangyan nodded, "But you guessed wrong about the height of the building, there is another floor above the sixth floor, and it should be seven floors in total." ”

"Seventh floor, but you didn't say the reward after going up to the seventh layer just now? Could it be that when you climb to the highest floor, the city lord is unwilling to recruit you?" Su Qin was very puzzled.

"How could it be. Cao Bangyan shook his head into a rattle, "The seventh layer, although the rewards are more generous, but the legend has been thirty years that no one can climb it, even if it is the two worshippers in the city lord's mansion, they have reached the powerful soul cultivation of the fifth-order soul master, and they can't set foot on the top of the tower, and the higher-level soul masters are subject to other special restrictions and can't enter the tower, so the rewards of the seventh layer have become dispensable, anyway, no one can be qualified to get it, and not many people will mention it over the years." ”

"So it's so difficult?" Su Qin didn't expect that even a fifth-order soul warrior who could be comparable to a powerhouse in the late stage of the Earth Shatter Realm would not be able to ascend to the seventh layer, and the soul master could not enter, this layer was equivalent to an unattainable area.

"What's the matter? Brother Su is interested in trying it too? The last time I saw you, you didn't seem to have cultivated soul power yet, have you become a soul master during this time?" Cao Bangyan, as a guard, knew how to observe words and expressions, and suddenly saw that Su Qinyi moved.

"Well, it's a bit of an idea, and I've indeed cultivated soul power recently, but after all, I'm just starting out, and my realm is not high, so I'm probably not qualified to participate. ”

Su Qin did not directly expose his details, and said ambiguously.

"Well, anyway, if you try it first, there is no problem, even if you can only enter the first floor, it will be very beneficial. If you're afraid that you won't be able to sign up, even if you come to me, I'll be able to talk about it. Cao Bangyan patted his chest and promised.

"I see. ”

Su Qin casually agreed, but he was thinking in his heart: "This Cao Bangyan can actually speak in this kind of matter, and he is only one of Song Lin's guards, could it be said that Song Lin's identity is very special? It may have something to do with the city lord of Liucheng? Otherwise, how can this surnamed Cao have such a big face?"

If he knew that the city lord of Liucheng was also surnamed Song, he would probably guess directly that Song Lin was the son of the city lord, and this Cao Bangyan was a senior guard in the city lord's mansion, and his status was much higher than that of the chief of Liuchengwei, of course he dared to say such a thing.

Next, the two of them chatted casually about some topics in the restaurant, nothing more than things about martial arts and cultivation, only Wang Dashun had been eating beside him, almost indifferent to the conversation between the two.

Su Qin never mentioned that he had entered the early stage of the Yuan Dan Realm, after all, his cultivation improvement speed was too terrifying, and his actual combat ability could fight hard with the strong people in the late stage of the Yuan Dan Realm, and Cao Bangyan was still in the middle of the Yuan Dan Realm, and the gap between the two sides was getting bigger and bigger.

......

"This is the inn with the best price and better living conditions in the city, so you can rest here for a few days. ”

Cao Bangyan's enthusiasm was overwhelming, and immediately after eating, he sent the two to an inn to check in.

Su Qin even rushed for a few days, and he really needed to take a break, although he had a small gold walk, and his body consumption was not large, but he had experienced too many things before, and he inevitably felt tired mentally, and he was not polite when he arrived here, and after opening the room, he directly said goodbye to Cao Bangyan and went into the room to rest.

Wang Dashun was faster than him, and he was already snoring loudly not long after entering the room, which could be clearly heard through the wooden board, obviously tired from the rush in the past few days.

Listening to the voice coming from next door, Su Qin just sat on the bed, took out a purple-gold card with a flip of his wrist, rubbed the edge of the card with his fingers, and the appearance of a quirky girl appeared in his mind, and he let out a light sigh in his mouth, and said to himself: "While the bell and drum tower conference has not yet started, let's go to the auction house of the Jiuxia Chamber of Commerce tomorrow to have a look, at least to see what the auction is like." ”
