Cheng Huo didn't plan to contact the people of Tianwei Mansion for the time being, so he replied: "There is no need to report, I can just enter the city by myself." ”

"Senior, please!"

The guards opened the gates, respectfully invited Cheng Huo in, and then immediately closed the gates to prevent the influx of refugees from outside the city.

The prosperity of Bianjing City is far better than that of Ruyun City.

As soon as he entered the city, he was drowned out by the noise of the city and the cries of the vendors along the street.

This prosperous scene is always more or less incompatible with the Western catastrophe that will come half a year later.

However, after thinking about it, he was quickly relieved:

In the face of the Western catastrophe, there is no possibility for the monks and ordinary people to struggle.

They have nowhere to go, let alone to defend themselves against the calamity. So it's a day of normalcy, and it's also a day of panic.

If so, why should we be in fear all day long?

While thinking about it, a voice that was extremely familiar to Chenghuo suddenly sounded from not far ahead.

'Ding-dong! ’

"Wheat paste, wheat paste do you want?"

At the same time as the sound sounded, the aroma of malt continued to come from the air.

Following the fragrance, Chengsheng walked to a stall selling sugar paintings: "Boss, how do you sell sugar monkeys?" ”

The merchant only focused on the sugar lake, and did not raise his head: "It's the same old way, it's all three dollars." ”

"Three money?" Cheng Sheng frowned: "In the past, wasn't it all two dollars a piece?" ”

The merchant who heard the 'two coins' was stunned.

He raised his head, looked at Cheng Huo and said, "Guest officer, it's you!" You're also here from Guyang City to Bianjing! ”

The merchant said, his hand movements kept flying, and it only took a moment to draw a sugar monkey for survival.

He handed the sugar monkey to Chenghuo, and said with a hint of apology and a smile: "I'm sorry, guest officer, this Bianjing is not as expensive as Guyang City, the food here is expensive, and the accommodation is also expensive, if the sugar man still sells it for two yuan a piece, I am afraid that I will starve to death in this city." ”

"Understandable." Chengsheng took the sugar monkey, and after paying the money, he talked to the merchant.

From the merchant's mouth, I learned that

The large-scale eastward migration of the people of the Great Liang Kingdom began about a year ago, after the imperial court issued a notice about the 'Western Tribulation'.

The merchants were the first of the people who moved eastward.

At first, these eastward migrants were able to enter Bianjing City.

However, as the population of Bianjing City grew, the imperial court only allowed monks with cultivation to enter.

After that, the threshold was further raised, and now, only monks who have cultivated in the fetal building period and above are allowed to enter.

After chatting with the merchant for a while, and after briefly understanding the general situation in Bianjing City, it was convenient to find an inn in the city to live.

——Due to the imminent catastrophe in the West, a large number of monks gathered in Bianjing City, and most of the inns in Bianjing City were overcrowded.

Only a handful of inns are still available.

The 'Caifu Inn' where Chengsheng stayed is one of the few inns that still has vacant rooms

on the streets.

And at the same time as he entered the 'Caifu Inn', a middle-aged man dressed in a Confucian robe with a small beard on his chin also hurriedly turned away.

He walked through several lanes and came to the mansion with the word 'Lezheng' on it, and knocked on the door.

'Knock, knock,'

The moment the knocker was clicked, I heard a voice from behind the door: "Who?" ”

The middle-aged man hurriedly said, "It's me, Hong'an." ”

"It's Lord Hong'an." Hearing the name of the visitor, the porter hurriedly opened the back door for him, and said in a low voice: "Are you here to find the third prince?" ”

"Hmm" Hong An also lowered his voice: "Caifu Inn, a new monk has recently moved in, and he flew down from the sky!" ”

"Is it the gestation period?"

Hearing the news that a monk in the gestation period had entered the city, the porter hurriedly invited Hong An in from outside, and then reminded: "The third prince is in the study, you can go by yourself." ”

"Thank you!" Hong An arched his hand at the gatehouse, then turned around and left in a hurry, without saying more

…

Following.

I got up early in the morning.

After eating a few breakfasts to satisfy his appetite, he took the 'auspicious clouds' magic weapon all the way east, and only flew to a small town on the eastern coast of Bianjing City at noon.

Like Bianjing, the town is also full of refugees who have fled from the west to the east to escape the robbery.

Instead of landing in the town, he watched in the air for a long time before flying straight to one of the largest ships.

On deck.

Seeing that Chengsheng landed from the air, a god-worshipping monk wearing a captain's hat hurriedly led the crew members of the ship to come forward and salute: "I don't know. Why did my predecessors come to my ship? ”

Cheng Huo said quietly: "I want to know, when the Western catastrophe comes, will this ship leave?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the monk of the worship period should know the meaning of survival.

He smiled and replied, "Naturally, it will be opened. If the Liang court fails to stop the catastrophe, then I will take the men on board all the way east until I find land. ”

"If you want to board the ship, you don't need any conditions, just let me know before you leave."

The Cultivators of the Fetal and Blood Pill Stages seemed to be very sought-after in the eyes of these captains.

Probably in order to stay as alive as possible, the captain did not hesitate to make a heavy promise: "At that time, the wine and food on the ship will be enjoyed by the seniors, and in addition, servants and maids will be arranged to take care of the seniors' daily life. And the only thing that the seniors need to do is to take action to solve the dangers that may be encountered during the voyage. ”

This captain is a good guy

Hearing what the captain said, Chengsheng looked satisfied.

He was not satisfied with the treatment on board, but with the attitude of the captain, and at the same time, he was even more satisfied, and the captain was a man with brains.

Cheng Huo Chong replied to the captain: "If nothing happens, when the Western catastrophe comes, I will bring people on your ship at that time." ”

"When you are preparing to go to sea, if you encounter any trouble, or if you need anything, you can come to Bianjing City to find me at any time."

At the end, Chengsheng didn't forget to add: "By the way, I am a Blood Pill Stage Monk, as long as you don't take the initiative to provoke the Deep Diving Stage Monk, then I can almost help you solve any trouble you encounter." ”

"Blood Pill Stage Cultivator?!"

After learning that he had survived and cultivated, the captain of the god worship period and many crew members on the ship all showed a look of shock.

At the moment, the captain's attitude towards Chengsheng became more and more respectful: "Dare to ask, the seniors have a big name?" ”

"Survive."

After reporting his name, Cheng Huo summoned the 'auspicious cloud' magic weapon and soared into the air, and galloped away in the direction of Bianjing City.

On the deck, all the crew members looked at the figure of Cheng Xing and left, showing an expression of joy and envy.

…

By the time he returned to the 'Caifu Inn' in Bianjing, it was already evening.

In the lobby of the inn.

Seeing Chenghuo's figure, a god-worshipping monk wearing a brocade robe got up and bowed to Chenghuo.

His tone was neither humble nor arrogant: "Le Zhengyun, the third prince of the Great Liang Kingdom, has seen Cheng senior!" ”

"You know me?" Cheng Huo said expressionlessly.

"I don't know, but I've admired my predecessors for a long time."

The brocade-clothed monk who claimed to be the 'Three Princes' said: "The name of the surviving predecessor has already spread in Bianjing City. ”

"It is said that even those contaminated Blood Pill Stage cultivators in Yin Sijian are not the opponents of their predecessors." The third prince did not hesitate to praise: "Therefore, the predecessor has been praised as the first person in the deep diving period in Bianjing City!" ”

As soon as the three princes said this, they immediately attracted all the monks in the inn lobby to look at Chengsheng together

"This man is the rumored life? The first person in the deep diving period? ”

"He is actually only in the middle stage of the Blood Pill cultivation?"

Apparently.

It's not just the Three Princes.

It is not difficult to see from what the monks in the inn are talking about, they have also heard of the name of Chengsheng for a long time.

This couldn't help but make Cheng Huo stunned in place, with a puzzled expression: when did his name come to Bianjing City?

The moment of doubt in his heart, Chengsheng suddenly thought that he had joined the monks of Tianwei Mansion with Li Zhuo a year ago, such as Nili, Po Yazhi, and Jurui.

Those Yin Sijian monks have all seen the power of survival.

Perhaps, it is precisely because of the word of mouth of this group of people that the name of "the first person under the deep diving period" has gradually spread in Bianjing City.

In fact, for survival, the name of "the first person in the deep diving period" is not an exaggeration.

- A contaminated Blood Pill monk, although his mental state is unstable, and he may lose control and mutate into a monster at any time.

But their strength is indeed a few points stronger than that of ordinary Blood Pill Stage cultivators.

The strength of survival is still above the contaminated Blood Pill Stage cultivators, and the strength of survival is self-evident.

As for how the three princes recognized Cheng alive.

This is also easy to explain.

Although the territory of Liang is large, because of the Western Tribulation, there are nearly eighty or ninety percent of the monks at present, and almost all of them have gathered in Bianjing City.

Many of these monks have known people who have survived.

It was not an accident that they saw Chengsheng and informed the three princes of the news that they had stayed at the 'Caifu Inn'.

After figuring out the trick of this, Cheng Huo returned a salute to the third prince and said quietly: "So, the third prince came to me, is there anything important to say?" ”

"It's not a particularly important thing." The third prince replied with a smile: "I just think that as a senior, it is too aggrieved to live in this Caifu Inn, so I specially prepared a mansion for my seniors. If you don't dislike it, you can move in at any time. ”

As he spoke, the third prince lowered his voice again and added: "In the courtyard, the servants and maids are all available, and all the servants are born innocent, and the maids are all of the best looks."

I have to say.

The three princes are very good at dealing with people.

Whether it is the tone of his speech, his voice, or the expression on his face, he always gives people a feeling of spring breeze.

In the lobby of the inn.

Cheng Sheng looked at the three princes with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

At present, the situation in Bianjing City is turbulent.

Since Emperor Lezheng Tianhui became seriously ill, twenty-three of the sixty-three princes in the court have clearly shown their intention to seize the heir.

And if you want to win the heir, you naturally need to cultivate your own forces, and you need to win over powerful monks.

But the number of monks in Bianjing City is limited after all.

So, after the princes had divided up all the monks in the city, they set their sights on the new monks who had entered the city.

It's like surviving.
