Chapter 18: Rock City
Rock City, located in the territory of the Heavenly Fire Empire in the east of the Guiyuan Continent, is one of the four main cities of the Eastern Continent, the other three main cities are the Heavenly Fire City of the Heavenly Fire Empire, the Aoki City in the depths of the Aoki Forest, and the Weak Water City on the coast of the East China Sea.
The reason for becoming these four main cities is very simple, that is, four of the nine major academies are located in these four main cities, among which the human power is the Heavenly Fire Academy and the Rock Academy, and the other two academies belong to the elf race and the merman race respectively.
"Is this the Rock City, one of ......the four main cities?
At this moment, Gurung was standing under the rock city, looking up at the majestic city wall, and couldn't help but sigh. When he thought that this rock city was from his own family, a sense of pride came from the bottom of his heart.
As soon as he stepped into the city, Gurung, who had lived in the town for twelve years, was attracted by this prosperous atmosphere, and looked at the surrounding shops and the dazzling variety of goods in the shops, Gurung's face couldn't help but turn red with excitement.
"Hey...... Third, look at that hillbilly, he looks like he has never seen the world......"
"Tsk...... Such a tattered axe is also embarrassed to carry on his back. ”
"You know, maybe it's a poor woodcutter......"
"Haha......ha
A discordant sound came into Gurung's ears, at first Gurung didn't know that the object of their discussion was himself, but along the way, these nasty voices still came from behind him, turned around and looked back, only to see a few well-dressed young children following behind him, led by a teenager around fifteen years old, with very delicate facial features and very fair skin, who was laughing with his partners at the moment, and his eyes were still glancing at him from time to time.
Gurung frowned a little impatiently, and was about to step forward to theorize, but suddenly noticed that the pedestrians around him were also looking at him with an extremely strange look.
A blue power suit that was originally worth a lot of money was put on him in tatters, and after three months, it had already been washed and whitened, and the material could not be seen clearly, and he still carried a rusty giant axe on his back, and the shoes on his feet were torn with several large holes, revealing a few toes stained with black mud.
Gu Long was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized, looking at his dress, he smiled bitterly, he felt extremely embarrassed at the moment, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
As those teenagers said, at this time, he really looked like a poor woodcutter in the mountains, dressed in shabby clothes, and looked out of place in the middle of the bustling streets of Rock City.
Gurung raised his head and looked around, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he swooped into a corner and disappeared in front of everyone.
After quickly passing through a few alleys, seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Gurung finally stopped, slightly relieved, the surface of the copper ring flashed silver, and there was an extra Earth Bear magic core in his hand, and then he politely stopped an old man, asked for directions, and walked into a clothing store.
According to the old man, this is the largest clothing store in Rock City, with a total of four floors, covering an area of half of the street in Rock City, with all the styles of clothing in it, and the prices are also high and low, gently pinching the magic core in his hand, Gurung walked towards the middle-aged man sitting at the counter.
"Hello, young man, welcome, what can I do for you?" the middle-aged man saw Gurung walking towards him, quickly got up, and asked with a smile on his face. After reading countless people, he naturally saw the extraordinaryness of Gurung, judging from his cultivation alone, the aura on Gurung's body was far higher than that of himself at the peak of the first order, not to mention that Gurung was still holding a magic core in his hand that exuded bursts of fluctuations.
"Hello uncle, I want to ask you to help me choose a set of clothes that suits me, as a reward-" Gurung stretched out his hand and shook the magic core in front of the middle-aged man's eyes, "This magic core is yours." ”
Looking at the demon core in Gurung's hand, the middle-aged man swallowed his saliva fiercely and muttered, "This is ...... The magic core of a third-order demonic beast?"
Gurung nodded affirmatively.
The middle-aged man looked around and found that some people's eyes had already been cast on his side, so he hurriedly pulled Gu Long to the second floor, and opened his mouth to say: "Young man, you, don't you know how precious the third-order demon core is? How can you casually take it out and show it to others in public? If it arouses the covetousness of people with intentions, you will be unlucky!" A Chinese face was full of worry, and even the two thick eyebrows were about to wrinkle together.
Seeing that Gu Long didn't speak, the middle-aged man hurriedly said again: "This magic core in your hand, if I'm not mistaken, should be the magic core of the third-order mid-stage demonic beast Earth Bear, right?"
Gurung smiled and nodded, this middle-aged man is not bad, if he were someone else, he would have seen the wealth a long time ago, how could he pull away from everyone and warn himself so carefully?
"The price of the demon core of the third-order mid-stage demonic beast is generally around 20,000 gold coins, and the energy contained in this magic core in your hand is extremely sufficient, and it is estimated that it will be more expensive. The middle-aged man carefully observed the demon core in his hand, and said without raising his head, "More than 20,000 gold coins, enough to buy some excellent-level weapons and equipment, you are just trying to change into an ordinary costume that is only a thousand gold coins at most...... Hehe...... This is really ......" did not continue, the middle-aged man just smiled wryly and shook his head.
While the middle-aged man was talking, Gurung carefully looked at the second floor of this clothing store, most of them were compartments that were separated one by one, the decoration and furniture on the second floor were made of mahogany, the workmanship was very fine, in the center of the second floor, there was a half-height incense burner, the curling cigarettes were coiled on the top of the stove, and a woody fragrance slowly wafted in, Gurung felt that the whole person was relaxed.
Suddenly, his eyes rested on the ceiling of the second floor, on which was carved a huge mountain-shaped rune, which was the family crest of the Panshi family!
Gurung smiled, he didn't expect that he would come to his family's business by mistake.
"It seems that my father's words are a bit extreme, and the people in the clan are not all as unbearable as he said......" Gurung said in his heart, after all, the Rock Family is a behemoth, and Sage, as the core child of the former clan, naturally knows some darkness in the family that cannot be seen. But after all, it is an intrigue between the high-level members of the clan, and some low-level members of the clan are still very good, just like the middle-aged uncle in front of him.
"Uncle, thank you for telling me this, but I don't have gold coins on me because I have been training in the mountains for a long time, if you can let me take a bath here and change my clothes, this Earth Bear's magic core, I will give it to you." Looking at the middle-aged man's eyes so seriously, Gurung explained.
After hearing this, the middle-aged man shook his head like a rattle, and said again and again: "No, no, this is too precious." ”
Gurung was helpless, looked at his embarrassed appearance, turned around in front of the middle-aged man's eyes, and said with a smile: "Uncle, then you can't let me wear this clothes all the time, I have nothing on me except the demon core." On the one hand, he was grateful for his integrity, and on the other hand, he felt that he was really a little pedantic, "Otherwise, you can pick me a suit of your best clothes and shoes, this magic core, I will sell it to you as 20,000 gold coins, how much does it cost after the most, you directly deduct it from the 20,000 gold coins, and return the rest to me!" Gurung patted his thigh and said immediately.
The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and found that Gurung didn't mean to joke, and finally agreed: "Okay, uncle, I'll take advantage of you, just do as you say!" After speaking, he beckoned a guy to come over and took Gurung to the bathroom on the third floor to wash, while he came to the fourth floor to help Gurung choose clothes.
"Hmm-" After taking a comfortable hot bath, Gurung returned to the second floor wearing a bathrobe and carrying a broken Yue axe, and the middle-aged man was already waiting for him with a light blue power suit in his hands.
After saying hello to the middle-aged man, Gurung grabbed the clothes in the middle-aged man's hand and entered a private room.
Soon, Gurung, who had changed his clothes, slowly walked out of the box, and the middle-aged man standing on the side couldn't help but secretly give Gurung a thumbs up.
The size of the outfit is just right, showing off Gurung's tall figure perfectly, and the neckline, wrist corset and belt of the suit are inlaid with unknown gemstone buckles. The ingenious design, with the outstanding temperament of Gurung, has a unique charm, what a young man!
"It's a pity...... My Broken Yue is really too spoiled to spoil the atmosphere...... "As a cultivator, Broken Yue can never leave his body, thinking of this, the smile on Gurung's face gradually faded, and he scratched his hair in annoyance.
"Young...... Oh, this young master, this is 20,000 gold coins for you, the cost price of this suit is about 1,300 gold coins, I am in charge, I should give it to you, the value of the magic core of the Earth Bear is definitely more than 23,000 gold coins, it is still us who take advantage of you......" The middle-aged man said respectfully. As the saying goes, people rely on clothes and Buddha rely on gold, originally middle-aged people had a very high evaluation of Gurung in their hearts, but when Gurung changed out of that sloppy outfit, judging from the temperament of the young man in front of him, he was definitely born from a huge force, and with the shrewdness of a middle-aged man, his attitude was naturally more respectful, so as to win the favor of this young man.
Gurung was about to say no, when he heard the sound of "kicking and kicking" from downstairs to climb the stairs.
"Uncle Egwene, quick, quickly find me a change of clothes, I beat people too hard just now, and this clothes were accidentally torn by me......"
Before anyone arrived, the sound came first, and a sound full of temptation came from the stairs, and then, Gurung felt a fragrant breeze blowing on his face.
"Huh, you...... Little Guzi?, are you Little Guzi?!"
Before Gurung could see the appearance of the visitor, the man pointed at Gurung in surprise, and his voice was full of surprise.
