Chapter Twenty-Nine: Fengdu
Fengdu is a bustling metropolis located in the eastern part of the imperial capital. The whole city is mixed with dragons and snakes, and all kinds of organizations are mixed in Fengdu, among them, the largest chamber of commerce in the Eastern Empire, the Tilting Chamber of Commerce has opened a branch here second only to the imperial capital, and there are countless other small shops.
In the same way, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are interests, here, there are not only businessmen, but also organizations engaged in various industries, such as intelligence organizations, killer organizations, etc., only you can't think of it, and there is no industry that you can't find.
Walking on the streets of Fengdu, Zitong looked around with curiosity, in the past seventeen years, he had never seen such a prosperous place, on the streets, you can see all kinds of warriors everywhere, with long swords, with broadswords on their backs, all kinds of people from the rivers and lakes gathered.
At this time, it has been seven days since they left Python Mountain, and in these seven days, Zitong followed the people of the Qingya team to the city where the Qingya team lives.
Seven days ago, the few people who didn't find anything in the cave were disappointed, but they were only disappointed, after all, when they went, they only had the intention of giving it a try, and they didn't force anything to do. And Zitong, after leaving the mountain, since others did not take the initiative to let him leave, then he also followed the road and came here, and the others did not have much, obviously, they also acquiesced.
On the way back, several people from the Qingya team were not as anxious as when they went, but rode back slowly, and they didn't have anything to worry about, and the task they were going to prepare was not a matter of a day or two, so Qinglin suggested that the route back should be changed, and it should be a distraction after hunting.
This proposal is obviously very popular, after all, it is not a good way to live in a deceitful hunting environment all the time, and it is always necessary to relax and relax. Among them, the happiest is Qingcheng, on the way back, there is no small town passed, she is going out to go around, today after arriving in Fengdu, she has bought back a lot of bottles and cans of things.
And these, other people, including her brother Qinglin, have no suspicions, but Zitong doesn't understand, these things can be bought in this all-encompassing Fengdu, I don't know that Sister Weishenme Qingcheng has to bring it back from far away.
Of course, it's cosmetics, but other girls are used to dress up themselves, and Qingcheng is not, as mentioned above, Qingcheng's disguise is very powerful, but it is difficult to do it without materials, and it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.
And Qingcheng buys so many cosmetics, she has to be fully prepared, the team has a total of five people, maybe six people, and the things bought in those small towns are also to prevent people from investigating, Qingcheng's caution has become a habit.
Other people obviously understand this very well, which makes Zitong puzzled, but there is no need for others to solve his doubts, in the final analysis, he is not a member of Qingya. But in addition to these things that involve secrets, Zitong gets along with them quite well, and in the past seven days, mutual affection has also progressed a lot.
One of the easiest to get along with is Sister Qingcheng and Brother Zhuang, Qingcheng seems to have a good impression of this big boy who is a little younger than himself, and there are a lot of exchanges along the way, of course, this is indispensable to the credit of Qiuqiu, many times, the topic of Qingcheng and Zitong is around Qiuqiu.
And after a period of getting along, Zitong also learned about their team's experience from Qingcheng's mouth.
It turns out that Qingcheng and his brother are orphans, since Qingcheng began to remember, his life concept is only one relative to his brother, and his brother never mentioned his parents' affairs, later, when the brother and sister attacked the town in a demon beast, they were rescued by a warrior, although the two were unfortunate in their childhood, but the warrior saw that their roots were also good, and he had the intention of accepting apprentices.
A few years later, the brother and sister gradually grew up, and the younger sister also slowly showed a talent for martial arts, and the elder brother, due to the late practice of martial arts, missed the best moment to build the foundation, although it was also an increase in strength, it was not as smooth as Qingcheng, but the wit and sensitivity cultivated since childhood also slightly made up for his kung fu. There is nothing to say about the days that followed, just practice, more than ten years have passed, the master can't withstand the torment of the years, plus when he rescued people, he was hit hard by the old injuries of the demon beast, and left them.
After the burial of the teacher, the brother and sister began to make another living, met some people with skills and interests, and slowly, that is, the current Qingya hunting team.
Secondly, it is the honest Brother Zhuang, don't look at his body, it is easy to give people oppressive force, but after a few days of getting along, Zitong found that he is still a very good person, compared to the two twin brothers, Brother Zhuang is simply a good person.
Qinglin also took special care of this little brother Fang Yu, but for some reason, Zitong just felt unnatural, vaguely, he seemed to see a trace of black gas flashing in the depths of Qinglin's eyes, and when he observed it himself, it was gone. This made Zitong inexplicably defensive towards Qinglin, and Qinglin was also aware of Zitong's vigilance, but he just smiled and didn't say anything.
Walking on the street, Zitong felt the gazes of passers-by, and couldn't help but feel helpless, his slightly immature face and full beard were really a bright spot. However, others just glanced at it and didn't pay too much attention to it, after all, Fengdu is so big, there are countless characters who come and go every day, and there are not a few people with special dresses, so it's no wonder.
"Giggles"
Seeing Zitong's embarrassed face, Qingcheng next to him couldn't help but laugh out loud, the laughter was crisp, and the bell generally echoed in Zitong's ears.
"Sister Qingcheng, you laugh at me again!" The progress of the relationship also allows Dezitong to afford to joke.
"Haha, it's okay, Xiao Yu, when we get to the inn, you clean up yourself, others won't look at you like that!" After speaking, Qingcheng still couldn't help but smile, hahadaxiao a few times.
The few people in front of them couldn't help but pull the corners of their mouths, and Brother Zhuang's loud voice laughed so that other people's ears buzzed, and then said: "Xiao Yu, you said that you had a very white little face, why did you have such a long beard, looking at the image is greatly reduced!"
"I don't want to, there are no mirrors in the mountains and forests, and I don't have a knife to repair them!" Zitong couldn't hold his face, so he prevaricated casually, and muttered again: "Actually, actually, I was quite delicate!"
Haha!
Even the twin brothers, who were not smiling, finally couldn't help but explode when they heard Zitong's unconfident words, hahadaxiao.
They laughed, Zitong's head was lower, he was talking about delicateness, that was just the impression of staying when he was a child, after coming out of the cave, he didn't have his own face, whether it had changed when he grew up, he really couldn't say.
"Alas!" Zitong sighed in his heart, although he was born with such a look, but Zitong, who had been ridiculed for a long time, also wanted to show a handsome face to calm them.
Everyone laughed all the way, and they came to an inn with a good façade. I saw that the plaque of the inn was written in gilded characters "There are guests".
"That's it, it's not the first time we've come to Fengdu, but when it comes to the consistency of the conditions and the price, this 'Youyoulai' inn is a very good place, how about it, everyone?" Although Qinglin's mouth was talking about you, his eyes were looking at Zitong.
Zitong didn't hesitate at all, and immediately nodded. Just kidding, I want to follow others to see what to see, isn't it in vain not to follow, not to mention, people have explained their reasons.
"Shopkeeper, come to the four upper rooms!" Qinglin, who walked into the inn, did not wait for anyone to greet him, but said to the shopkeeper who was settling accounts, and at the same time, an ingot of gold also fell steadily on the counter.
"Yo, okay, Ah Fu, take a few guest officers to the second floor of Tianzi No. 4, No. 5, No. 6 and No. 8 rooms. The shopkeeper who bowed his head just looked up and didn't see who it was, but the yellow gold fell in front of his eyes. Immediately after, there was a familiar sound of command.
"Come on, a few guest officers, please come here!"
"Well, the money is deducted first, and when it's not enough, tell me that there is no time to check out, these four rooms have been kept for us, even if the person is not there, you can calculate the money as usual!"
After coming to the second floor, Qinglin said again: "Choose your own room, whichever you like, you can go, hehe, now we have a little brother, then Xiao Yu will come first!"
Hearing Qinglin let him come first, Zitong muttered in his heart, "I'll go to No. 8!" He still knows his own weight, and the three rooms connected in front of him will be lived in by the people of their original team, and after all, he has just integrated in, although they didn't say it explicitly, but Zitong himself still has a rod and scale.
"Okay, I'll go with Brother Zhuang to the nearest room four. What about Qingcheng?" Qinglin looked at his sister, knowing that she usually robbed the room, it was rare to be so obedient today.
"I'll go to Six! Qingcheng smiled.
"Our brother is only number five!" the strong and weak brothers also laughed. In this way, several people arrived at their rooms in a relaxed atmosphere.
After separating from the others, Zitong hurriedly instructed the shopkeeper to prepare bath water and a knife for himself, and he had to repair his beard or something.
After giving these instructions, Zitong took off his backpack and put it on the bed, Qiuqiu also ran out of his arms and drilled around on the bed, he hadn't seen such a soft quilt for a long time.
