Chapter 82 Staying in Ruyi Residence
……
……
Qinglinfang, which was located on top of the second-order spiritual vein, was not comparable to the bazaar of the first-order spiritual vein.
Not only is the scale larger, the design and planning are also more orderly, and there is even a huge second-order formation that envelops the entire Fang City into it.
There is only one way in and out of Fang City.
It was a huge wooden gatehouse with a height of more than ten meters and a width of more than twenty meters.
From a distance, it looks like an ornament.
But as they got closer and closer to this entrance, they met more and more monks, and there was no shortage of ninth-level Qi cultivators who controlled flying magic weapons.
Even when Meng Zhou stopped the Feihong Technique and slowly entered the city along the flow of people in front of him, a light quickly approached from a distance, and it was just a little momentum that was inadvertently revealed, which made Meng Zhou and the other Qi cultivators feel awe-inspiring in their hearts.
But when approaching the entrance of this gatehouse, the light also quickly slowed down, and landed on the avenue that was still nearly a hundred meters away from the gatehouse, and the powerful momentum was also restrained by him, showing a middle-aged monk with an ordinary appearance.
"Tsukiki!"
However, this foundation building monk did not line up to enter like other Qi cultivators, and walked directly through a passage next to it that was empty.
At the entrance of this square city, there are no monks on patrol, and there is no need to pay spirit stones to enter and exit.
It's just that when Meng Zhou stepped under the gatehouse and entered the Fang City from outside the Fang City, his keen five senses made him feel that at that moment just now, there was a strange ripple passing around him.
Meng Zhou's heart sank, but there was nothing abnormal in the follow-up, which also made him feel at ease.
After entering the Fang City, Meng Zhou even pondered in his heart.
"Is this the divine thought probe of the foundation building powerhouse, or is it the security scan that comes with the second-order formation?"
It was still early to inspect the time, and Meng Zhou took a quick stroll along the main road of Fang City.
With his foot strength, it took nearly an hour to complete the four main roads of Fang City.
The four main roads in the whole city are the first ring road near the central area and the second ring road in the outer periphery in the shape of "Hui", and the two main roads in the shape of a standard "ten".
The two ring roads roughly divide the city into three districts, namely the central area within the first ring road, the commercial area between the first and second ring roads, and the largest residential area between the second ring road and the outermost second-order formation.
Meng Zhou estimated in his heart that the area of the entire Fang City was about the same as the urban area of the third-tier cities in the previous life.
In addition, the two main roads run through the entire central area and the commercial area, and these two ring roads plus two long streets, one vertical and one horizontal, plus a larger number of lanes will connect the entire square market.
Except for the south end of the North and South Streets, which connects with the entrance of Fang Market and runs through the Second Ring Road, the north end of the North and South Streets and both ends of the East and West Long Streets stop at the Second Ring Road and do not penetrate into the residential area.
Through understanding, Meng Zhou knew that not everyone could enter the residential area.
Only if you have lived in Qinglinfang for more than five years and have not violated the law and discipline can you be eligible to apply for a small courtyard in a residential area.
Of course, it's not free, and you still have to pay spirit stones, but the cost is far cheaper than staying in a hostel in a commercial area.
If you have a lot of spirit stones in your hand, you can also apply for a vacant land and build your own cave.
Through inquiry, I learned that there are many chambers of commerce or immortal cultivation families that have built foundations, and they all have one or two self-built cave mansions in residential areas, which is even an important indicator for everyone to weigh each other.
Walking on the second ring road, many areas of the residential area have opened the formation, and only a vast white fog can be seen.
However, there are also some places where the formation has not been activated for the time being, and the owner of the yard is chatting and playing in the small courtyard.
Although it is in the downtown area, it is like living in seclusion in the mountains and forests.
Just thinking about this state, Meng Zhou really wanted to have such a small courtyard.
But unfortunately, he is not yet eligible to apply.
When passing a corner, Meng Zhou paused.
Just ahead, there is an alley leading from a residential area to the Second Ring Road.
Such alleys are not unusual, and on the second ring road, there are one at intervals.
What stopped Meng Zhou's footsteps was a street sign standing at the mouth of the alley, which wrote in order the small courtyard that the alley would pass along the way.
And at the bottom of this street sign, that is, in the deepest part of this alley, there are four words clearly written - "Qingwan Courtyard".
The first time he saw this name, the thought that came to Meng Zhou's heart was: "It seems that Qingxuanzong really has no professional discrimination." ”
As for taking the jade plaque given by the owner of the small courtyard to the door, Meng Zhou naturally would not do it.
Even if the other party showed the ardent expectation that the flower path would always be swept for the guests and the Pengmen would always be opened for you, he would not really have the slightest thought.
What's more, he can't afford the high price of housing in the commercial area.
After taking a cursory walk around and understanding the general situation of Qinglinfang, Meng Zhou picked a hostel called "Ruyiju" in the business district.
It is designed for late-stage Qi cultivation monks, and only does medium- and long-term business, and the room fee is paid once a month.
Compared to those places where you stay for a short period of time, it is much cheaper.
However, if this "cheap" is placed in Nuanyun Valley and Red Pine Ridge, it is not cheap at all, and the room fee for January will require a hundred spirit stones.
One hundred room fees were paid, and Meng Zhou added another hundred spirit stones by the way, and in the future, he didn't need to worry about three meals a day.
When necessary, you can go to the dining hall of Ruyiju at any time to pick it up.
Meng Zhou believed that these 100 low-grade spirit stones would not be lost.
Although his appetite was far from being comparable to that before the White Bear Cold Extreme Body was consummated, it was still far above that of an ordinary late-stage Qi cultivator.
This is not just a simple appetite, but also a strong bodily function that allows him to digest and absorb the spiritual substances in his affairs, which brings obvious benefits to his spiritual practice.
Although, with his current cultivation, the gain brought by the intake of spiritual food was already minimal, but the effect was equivalent to taking a minor cultivation pill, and there were no side effects.
After living in Ruyi Residence, for ten consecutive days, Meng Zhou never even left the door.
For Qinglinfang and foundation-building related matters, he was not in a hurry to do a deeper understanding and exploration.
Since leaving the Water Curtain Cave, for more than half a month, he has either been on his way or preparing to go.
Although the cultivation was not delayed, the feeling was different from staying in a quiet place after all.
Psychological fatigue and mental burnout can be clearly felt.
Now that he has finally arrived at his destination and has basically settled down, Meng Zhou will not care about anything, and will first meditate in peace for ten days.
When Meng Zhou first arrived in Qinglinfang and moved into Ruyiju, his state was as follows.
