Chapter 18: What to Do Next

Jiang Yu Ning said in his heart that this thank you gift was too casual, and there was no sincerity at all, but he rejected Qiao Ran's proposal on his face.

"No need, I'll stay at the guest house."

This person was too enthusiastic from the beginning, which made Jiang Yuling wonder if this person approached him for some purpose.

And she just got a huge amount of more than 100,000 yuan, and the inn can still afford to live, so there is no need to send someone to live in someone else's house.

Seeing that she refused, Qiao Ran did not force it, for fear of arousing the other party's disgust.

After the night attack of the Cold Night Mercenary Regiment, after a short rest, Qiao Ran decided to go on the road overnight and arrive at Heiwu City as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night.

Fortunately, this time, Jiang Yuling no longer had to be called a carriage with the goods, but was invited to be called the same carriage as Qiao Ran.

was able to make himself comfortable along the way, Jiang Yuling naturally had no reason to refuse, and naturally accepted it gladly.

Xia Xuxu and the others also did not have to use two legs to walk the rest of the way because of Jiang Yuning, but were allowed to be called reloading on the carriage, although it was very crowded, but compared to before, it was much better.

After the caravan traveled day and night, it arrived at Heiwu City in the evening of the next day, a full day and a half earlier than originally expected.

The castle is backed by Mt. Heimu, and the walls of Takamatsu come into view, and in front of the gate, there is a moat formed by the groundwater that draws from the mountain.

If outsiders want to enter Heiwucheng, they will have to charge a lot of fees to enter the city, but because Jiang Yuning and the others are with the Qiao family's caravan, this fee can be regarded as saved.

Although the money is small, as the saying goes, no matter how small the legs of a mosquito are, they are still meat.

Jiang Yuning looked at the long queue outside, these people were all residents living in nearby villages and towns, and they came to Heiwu City to sell some scattered mountain goods.

"Does every city in Qingyan have to charge a fee to enter the city today?"

"Naturally, not only the Qingyan Country, but also other cities, it is a tacit rule for everyone."

Qiao Ran explained, Heartfelt Jiang Yuling didn't even know this kind of thing, she was really not from Yunzhou.

But what Jiang Yuling thought was that with so many people coming in and out every day, these cities must be rich one by one.

But she just sighed, other people's affairs have nothing to do with her, and the world has always been like this, ordinary people want to survive, only to abide by the laws formulated by the strong.

Although it is called Kuromu Castle, the interior of the castle is mostly made of white buildings.

As soon as you enter the city, you will find a wide and smooth pipeline, and on both sides of the road are all kinds of small vendors, mostly selling some mountain goods, or home-grown vegetables and fruits.

Every stall owner shouted hard and sold his goods to every passing customer.

Jiang Yuling's gaze skimmed over these small vendors, and he didn't find what he liked to eat, so he also withdrew his gaze.

After bidding farewell to the Qiao family caravan and Qiao Ran, Jiang Yuling decided to find an inn to settle down in.

Along the way, Jiang Yuling thought carefully about the next thing.

From Qiao Ran's mouth, Jiang Yuling learned that this period of time happened to be the day for enrollment in major colleges, and he would be able to enroll at the end of June and early July.

Since there are no clues at all now, and I am not familiar with the place, it is better to find an academy to stay in first, and it is good to be familiar with the environment.

Now that he had made up his mind to find an academy to stay in, Jiang Yuling asked Qiao Ran about some information about the academy.

According to her thoughts, no one can treat herself badly, from the teachers, cultivation resources, rankings of previous years, and the atmosphere of the academy, Jiang Yuling does not seek the best, but must be the most suitable for herself, and stay in the most comfortable college.

Although she was a little surprised by Jiang Yuning's idea of entering the academy, she still told her the specific information of each academy.

There are hundreds of colleges in Yunzhou, but there are not many of them that can be named, among which Qinglian, Qiushui, Yunsong, and Lai Yi are called the four major colleges in Yunzhou.

Each of these four academies has its own unique teaching philosophy, but the teaching of Qinglian Academy and Qiushui Academy is very strict, and the competition between internal disciples is fierce, and such an environment is actually not suitable for Jiang Yuling.

Yunsong Academy and Ley Academy are just the opposite, the discipline of disciples is not very strict, as long as they abide by the rules of the academy, there will basically be no restraints, of course, the premise of this kind of unrestrained is to pass the academy's test.

In the end, Jiang Yuning chose Yunsong Academy among the two colleges, just because Yunsong Academy's test was once a month, while Ley's college had to be tested every seven days.

Jiang Yuning never thought that she would not be able to pass the exam, because all the colleges have preferential policies for disciples such as Fu Gong Master, Alchemist, and Refiner when recruiting students, commonly known as bonus points.

The inn she lives in now is the best inn in Heiwu City, including food and accommodation, and even being able to order her own food, of course, such thoughtful service, the price is also very good-looking.

The cost of accommodation here for one day is 200 yuan, and all three meals a day are included, but if you want to order food, you need to charge an additional fee.

"Sure enough, you get what you pay for."

Jiang Yuling ate the dish in front of him, talking as he ate.

If you are not mistaken, the chef of this inn should not be an ordinary chef, but a spiritual chef who has entered with his cooking skills.

Integrate your aura with the dishes you make, and in this way you can improve your cultivation.

After eating and drinking, Jiang Yuling returned to his room, thinking that the storage bag he had obtained from Xia Xuxu before didn't seem to have been opened.

I didn't have time before, but now that I have time, it's better to open it and see what is inside.

Why, for the sake of safety, before opening this storage bag of unknown origin, she placed a formation around it to avoid any accidents at that time,

As it turned out, her caution was correct.

The storage bag was opened, and all the contents fell to the ground.

Some of these mystical medicines have long lost their medicinal properties, and they completely dried up the moment they came out, and the pills also lost their medicinal effects seriously and became waste pills.

Picking and choosing, the contents of this storage bag are either scrapped or about to be scrapped, and only a small part of it is not affected.

Jiang Yuling held one of them in his hand, "This is, a heart-shaped stone." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, the stone in her hand made a cracking sound, and in the pile of rubble, a red thread appeared in her palm.

"What is this?"

Before Jiang Yuling could take a closer look, the red thread seemed to come to life, actively wrapped around her wrist, and then disappeared.
