Chapter 18 It's Not Like It's Like, Juvenile Tour
In the world of cultivation...
Whether it is a big force, a small family, or a demon beast, they all like to build their sects or nests on spiritual veins.
In addition to the convenience of cultivation, another important reason is that some spiritual veins can be transferred to arrange a spiritual workshop market nearby to attract casual cultivators.
Because cultivators do not eat the fireworks of the world, on the contrary, their cultivation relies heavily on resources such as pills, spirit stones, magic weapons, and exercises.
And the resources within the jurisdiction of most of the forces in the cultivation world are not not abundant, or they are rich but too single...
For example, the Xianxia Mountain is rich in mineral resources, but it is not suitable for the survival of most spirit plants, and the lack of the output of spirit plants means that it is difficult to refine the pill and be self-sufficient.
So there is also the existence of Fang City...
The establishment of a fang market within the jurisdiction of the influence, allowing loose cultivation and other forces to make a living, can not only enrich the diversity of resources in the area under its jurisdiction, but also sell land, collect rent, and make a living in the fang market.
As a large sect, Xianxia Mountain has established six fang cities within its jurisdiction, each of which is the size of a small city, which can accommodate tens of thousands of monks...
Under the sunset.
Two Lin horses carrying the four people who were in the dust appeared in the range of Xianxia Mountain No. 4 Fang City.
"A fang market under the door is so magnificent, what does the Xianxia Mountain Sect look like?"
Zhu Shaohong looked at the big plaque of 'Xianxia Mountain - No. 4 Fang City' hanging on the city gate, and couldn't help but sigh.
"When Xianxia Mountain recruits disciples, it will select young people who have fixed property rights in Fang City."
When Zhu Yuanzhong heard his nephew's words, he smiled meaningfully: "I don't have a chance to see it, Shao Hong, you will have a chance to go to Xianxia Mountain in the future." ”
Ji Bochang looked at Fang Shi and felt a little distracted, and his face also showed a bit of nostalgia.
Xie Ping seemed to see his strangeness and asked, "Ji Daoyou has been to No. 4 Fang City?" ”
"Not only have I been here, but I have lived there for eight years..."
Ji Bochang smiled self-deprecatingly and said: "I was born here, but my parents died when I was eight years old, and I was kicked out without a spirit stone to pay rent. ”
“……”
The three of them didn't know why, and their faces froze when they heard this.
Xie Ping's face was a little embarrassed, although it was unintentional, but after all, he had revealed his scars, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
And Zhu Shaohong obviously noticed her embarrassment, and immediately opened the topic and said: "Ji Daoyou, why don't you go to my Zhu house together and have a cup of tea?" ”
"Thank you for your kindness."
Ji Bochang turned over and dismounted, and refused with a smile: "But it's not early, Ji still wants to go to his hometown to see, so he won't bother." ”
After that, he arched his hand at the three of them and entered the market by himself.
When I saw the familiar and unfamiliar streets of Fangshi, I couldn't help but sigh: "If you want to buy osmanthus and carry wine, it will not be the same in the end, and the young man will ...... it."
“……”
Zhu Shaohong looked at his distant back, and said with regret: "Ji Daoyou is really a wonderful person, but it's a pity that he is a fifth-line pseudo-spiritual root. ”
"yes."
Zhu Yuanzhong echoed, glanced at Xie Ping and muttered: "The five pseudo-spiritual roots want to find a Taoist couple, I'm afraid it's difficult~"
Xie Ping pursed the corners of her lips and said disappreciatively: "Maybe people have their own natural appearance." ”
"Then I wish Ji Dao Youji people their own natural appearance."
Zhu Shaohong said and looked at Xie Ping, and said with a smile: "Walking all the way is also considered fate, now that Ji Daoyou is gone, Xie Daoyou, you can get my Zhu family to sit down, the elders in the provincial family said that I neglected my friends." ”
Xie Ping smiled slightly, "Then it's bothering." ”
…………………
Fang City, Wuyi Lane.
Giber often walks along with the memories in his mind.
I thought that after leaving for more than 20 years, Wuyi Lane had already become a person.
I never thought that except for the alleyway is more dilapidated, the houses on both sides are older, and the trees are thicker, Wuyi Lane doesn't seem to have changed much.
But think about it, after all, the Cultivation Workshop City is a Cultivation Workshop City, and the people living in it are all cultivators.
There are no years for cultivation, and for those who practice, more than 20 years will not pass in the blink of an eye, but it is not too long.
Suddenly, he seemed to see something, and stopped at the end of the alley...
In his sight, two middle-aged men dressed in cyan embroidered moire robes were knocking on the door of a courtyard.
People are familiar, and so is the portal.
People are the outer disciples of Xianxia Mountain, although they have the name of 'Xianxia Mountain disciples', they are actually only in charge of Fang City.
They are also doing the work of helping to collect rents and rectifying the city's appearance, similar to the 'supernumerary personnel' in the previous life, and the real Xianxia Mountain disciples belong to two systems.
Ji Bochang didn't have a spirit stone to pay the rent at the beginning, so he was kindly sent out of the market by them.
And the door they knocked on happened to be Ji Bochang's 'home' more than 20 years ago.
What impressed him the most was that there was an outer disciple of Xianxia Mountain at that time, who saw that he was young, and joked with a smile: 'You Ji Bochang, it's a pity that your life is not long~'
"Urging, urging, urging?"
With a spicy female voice coming from the courtyard, the portal opened, and then a basin of warm water poured out of the portal.
The two disciples of the outer sect of Xianxia Mountain obviously suffered a loss, and when the door opened, they tacitly retreated to the sides, avoiding the risk of not knowing whether it was bath water or foot washing water to shower their heads.
A young and beautiful woman with a Lingyun bun stepped out of the door, and after seeing the people clearly, she glared at them with a smile on her face, and asked fiercely: "Didn't you say that this year's rent will be paid until next month?" What else are you going to do? ”
"Sanniang, you said last month that the grace period would be until this month, and this month you said that the grace period would be until next month."
One of the disciples of the outer sect of Xianxia Mountain said with a sad face: "Half of this year has passed, and this rent has not been confiscated, everyone is an old neighbor for decades, so you don't want to make it difficult for us." ”
"Yes, Sanniang, you also know that we are just acting on orders, and we can't be the masters."
Another disciple of the outer sect of Xianxia Mountain echoed: "Your husband's family has been dead for many years, and you have children to raise, we can all understand your suffering, but after all, the rules are not set by us, so why should you embarrass us?" ”
“……”
The two looked at the face of the old neighbors for many years, and persuaded them bitterly.
And the beautiful woman also knew that she was in charge, and her face turned pale when she heard this, and finally gritted her teeth and asked the two of them to give another ten days, and if they couldn't pay the rent after ten days, they would move out.
The two outer disciples of Xianxia Mountain glanced at each other when they heard this, and they could only nod helplessly, and said, "Then we will come back in ten days." ”
Then he arched his hand and said goodbye and left...
The beautiful woman stood in front of the door, looking a little distracted, until a little girl of about six or seven years old ran out of the courtyard, and she came back to her senses and hugged her, and her expression could not hide her tiredness.
Ji Bo often stood not far away, quietly looking at the two of them, and couldn't help but sigh that time was like a reincarnation...
In front of the door, the little girl's eyes rolled, as if she had found something, and immediately tugged at the sleeve of the beautiful woman, and muttered in a low voice: "Mother, is someone watching us?" ”
"Huh?"
Tong Sanniang was shocked, followed her gaze, and sure enough, she saw a man looking at her strangely.
Originally, he was still a little vigilant, but after realizing that the other party only had a third-level cultivation of qi refining, his vigilance instantly turned into shame.
Thinking of her embarrassment of being seen by others, she glared and scolded, "What do you see? Never seen a pretty woman? ”
“……”
Ji Bochang was slightly stunned, then reacted immediately, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law of the Li family, don't come to harm?" ”
"Uh-huh???"
