Chapter 696: Heavy News
On the edge of the runoff bay after the formation of the Wuyuan River, there is a prosperous county town of Wuliu Country, which is Wuquan County.
Although Wuquan County does not seem to be very far from Wuliu Snow Mountain from a very high sky, it is actually at least nearly 200 miles away.
And because the overall terrain from the Snow Mountain to Wuquan County has dropped sharply, and there are some mountains in the middle to prevent the cold current from falling, so that the climate of the two places, which is not very far away, is very different.
Wuliu Snow Mountain is covered with ice and snow all year round, while the area around Wuquan County has relatively normal spring, summer, autumn and winter.
In addition, there are many mountains and animals in the transition zone of the snow-capped mountains, and there are also famous Wuliu snow ginseng in the place where you are closer to the snow-capped mountains, so Wuquan County is not a small town.
Although it is not one of the most prosperous places in the country of Uryu, the city is large in scale and has a large population, and it has the largest medicinal herb market in the country of Ulyu, and there is an endless stream of merchants from all over the country and even from other regions.
Yi Shuyuan put aside the dragon clan and came from this Wuquan County, he fell with the wind, and when he approached the county seat, he was immersed in the atmosphere of the New Year, and the strong sense of hustle and bustle had already come to his face.
Although the Golden Toad Palace is in the Wuliu Snow Mountain, it is now just a ruin that has been crushed under the ice and snow, and it is said that it wants to be rebuilt, but it is still at the stage of thinking.
Moreover, King Toad's arrangement was originally to consider the safety of his daughter, and it was impossible to stay at the old site of the Golden Toad Palace all the time, and Wuquan County was one of them.
However, in recent years, this is the place where Toadqin has stayed the most, after all, it is close to Daegu.
Yi Shuyuan fell on the streets, and many shops on the streets were equipped with toad lanterns.
The main heavenly court of the four directions is the etiquette of the world, and the main cultural centers of the four directions are regarded as the same origin, so the people of Wuliu also attach great importance to the Shangyuan Festival, and there is also a lantern festival on the day of Shangyuan in Wuquan County.
However, Wuquan County also has its own cultural characteristics, from ancient times to the toad as the mascot, known as the golden toad spit water harvest in the coming year allusions, some festivals are indispensable to the toad related things.
The toad lantern on the eve of the Shangyuan Festival is naturally a must-have.
Yi Shuyuan walked on the streets, surrounded by ordinary people, and there were many stalls on the streets, to a certain extent, it was the same as the market in the town for the New Year when he was a child in his previous life.
And the large and small toad lanterns are some mighty, some are cute, each shop stall put out of the hanging toad lanterns are in different forms, in addition to the toad lanterns there are all kinds of similar ornaments, even porcelain products, open and close the mouth and so on.
"Haha, it's really interesting, the world is so big, and the toads are all auspicious beasts here."
Gray Mian drilled out Yi Shuyuan's collar, look at this and that, basically as long as he set up a stall and opened a store, he had to have something to do with toads.
"So in fact, all the heavenly principles respected by the world, as long as they can coexist in harmony, they all influence each other, and the Golden Toad Palace is a force on the side of the demon clan, which seems to have disappeared for hundreds of years, but it has passed on its influence in this wonderful way."
Yi Shuyuan said, suddenly looked at a stall, walked to its vicinity and stopped.
This stop, coupled with some attention, Yi Shuyuan's own existence changed from subconsciously ignoring the crowds on North Street to being noticed by stall vendors.
When the stall owner saw a rather elegant gentleman stop in front of the stall, he immediately got up and greeted him.
"Alas, what do you like about the guest officer, there are not many things in the stalls, everything is a high-quality product, you can speak what you want, and the price is absolutely fair!"
Yi Shuyuan smiled, bent down and picked up a small toad with purple sand color from a wooden box on the ground, and after careful inspection, he felt that the little toad's mouth was slightly bulging and lifelike.
Not only are the details of the limbs in place, but even some of the small bumps on the body are also carefully carved, and the toad's face presents a relaxed and happy expression, which is even more cute.
With Yi Shuyuan's senses and intuition, the evaluation in my heart is: exquisite skills, masterwork!
"How much does this stuff cost?"
The peddler laughed.
"Guest officer, you really have a vision, this is the only one on the Jin Toad Purple Sand Tea Pet Stall, and it is still a masterpiece!"
"Oh? A master's work, which one is a master? ”
Yi Shuyuan looked the little toad up and down, looked at the back and raised it to look at the belly, and did not see any information such as the payment, the whole little toad was integrated, without a trace of extra chisel.
"Well, it is said that it was made by Lu Youdao, the imperial craftsman of the previous dynasty, this thing, ordinary people really don't deserve it, but I see that you have an extraordinary bearing, and it is very suitable to sell it to you!"
"And how much?"
Yi Shuyuan looked at the vendor with a smile.
The black, thin man was wrapped in a fur jacket, looking very shrewd, and when he saw that the customer really wanted it, his face was even more happy, and he stretched out three fingers.
"If you really want it, you can take it for three taels of silver!"
Yi Shuyuan was slightly surprised.
"Three-two?"
The vendor knew in his heart that he would definitely be bargained, but this man looked like he was from out of town.
In this case, the stall owner is confident that the price will remain relatively high, and of course he will not let go at first.
"Yes, three taels! Although there is no payment, but this workmanship, this skill, is also a rare boutique on the whole street, hot tea soup can be poured on the golden toad spit water, guest officer, not expensive, think about it, after this"
"Okay, three or two will be three or two!"
The vendor wanted to talk endlessly, but suddenly heard that the other party readily agreed, and he was stunned for a moment.
"Uh, okay, I'll wrap up the guest officer?"
"No, just hold it in your hand, give it, it's silver."
Yi Shuyuan took out a small ingot of silver from his sleeve, and when the vendor took it, he was both happy and a little annoyed in his heart.
Damn, it's a rich man, I knew it was a little higher, and maybe I would give him five taels!
As if sensing the stall owner's inner thoughts, Yi Shuyuan couldn't help but quip.
"Little Brother Mo doesn't regret it, and he wants to add more silver?"
The stall owner hurriedly waved his hand.
"Alas, the masterpiece of the famous family, it is indeed sold cheaply, but open the door to do business, the price is not regretted, since the deal, how much money is said, I do not regret it, and the person who buys it back cannot regret it, this is the rule on the street!"
"Yes, yes, it makes sense!"
The stall owner smiled, picked up his small scale and weighed the silver, only to find that the three taels were exactly the same.
"Hey, it's exactly the same, the guest officer pays attention to people!"
"Well, I'll take this then?"
"Hey, guest officer, you can go slowly, you can buy some more if you have something you can see."
"No, no, no."
"Guest officer, come again~~~"
The vendor shouted, but saw that the man had already gone away, pinched the silver in his hand, and his face showed joy, today is a big business!
And Yi Shuyuan walked on the street and played with the little toad in his hand, always with a smile on his face, this thing is not a treasure, but it is also a rare thing in the world, the key is fun.
At the end of the street, there are two large shops, a liquor shop on the left and a tea shop on the right.
After all, it is so close to Wuliu Snow Mountain, although there are spring, summer, autumn and winter, but it is also generally cold, most of the buildings here are relatively low, and the wine shop and tea shop are only one floor.
If it was usual, Yi Shuyuan would probably go to the wine shop, and go to the right today.
Sitting in the shop, although the door is only a straw curtain block, but the inside is much warmer than the outside, the business inside the tea shop is not bad, and the tea customers are lively and chatting.
"Alas, do you know the Painted Dragon Temple in Yonggyeong, Daegu?"
"I know, I heard that it is very spiritual!"
"At the end of last year, my lord's caravan went to Yongjing City, Daegu, to pour snow ginseng, dedicated to the Daegu Emperor to extend his life, only came back yesterday, just in time for a strange thing, it is said that the dragon painted in the Dragon Temple, flew away directly, and the storm and lightning thundered in Yongjing City for a while!"
"Huh? Really? ”
"Of course it's true, if you go to Yongjing and go to the Painted Dragon Temple, the painted dragon on the Painted Dragon Mountain is gone, by the way, the Painted Dragon Temple has been renamed Hualong Temple!"
The tea guest who spoke dipped his fingers in the tea and wrote the word "hua", and some of the others were illiterate and asked what they wrote, and after the explanation, there was a burst of exclamation.
Some people also said that they had heard that the sea had been stormy for a long time, and many fishermen did not dare to go out to sea a few years ago.
Yi Shuyuan sat down at a table in the teahouse, listened to these discussions, and waited for the pot of local tea and refreshments he asked for to come up.
Then put the little toad into a teacup, lift the teapot and pour it with hot tea, with the flow of water, the color of the little toad seems to change, more naïve at the same time, the mouth also spit out a column of water, sure enough, it is a golden cicada spit water.
"It's fun!"
Gray Mian jumped out and picked up a piece of rice cake, and also looked at the little toad in the teacup and said this.
At this time, a person had already walked to the table.
"Mr. Yi, when did you come?"
Yi Shuyuan raised his head and saw that it was Yaci, who was sitting opposite Yi Shuyuan at the moment, and there was a smile on his face.
"It's only been a long time since you came, and the North Sea Dragon Clan is looking for you everywhere now!"
Yaci smiled dumbly, he probably knew what the dragons were looking for him for.
"If you like to look for it, I'm not interested in going back to Beihai anyway!"
Yi Shuyuan looked at the tea guests who were chatting hotly, and then looked at Yacidao.
"No matter what, it's always necessary to deal with it, you Yaci is now one of the few true dragons in the world, do you think you are still trapped in the mountains and draw dragons?"
News will always be delivered, just like the tea customers in this teahouse, some merchants have returned, and they will also bring some news of changes in Daegu's capital.
And the two true dragons in Beihai fought, and finally Yaci slashed the ruler and won it, which can be described as a heavy news transmitted between the various ways of cultivation between heaven and earth.
In this context, the dragon enthronement ceremony that the Beihai Dragon Clan must hold is not an ordinary ritual ceremony at all.
Perhaps at this moment, the news of Yaci's beheading of Mu Xu's biological father, Yayou, is being transmitted at an explosive speed, and it may have spread to several heavens and earths.
