The Third Dao Hall Chapter 50 On the occasion of parting
Xiaohe took Lu Zhong and Erli out of the Huxin Pavilion, and quietly slipped away from the back door of the small building by the lake, walking through the main gate for fear of being beaten to death.
Yu Hibiscus looked at the figure that disappeared in front of her, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, I don't know if it was Lu Zhong's method that worked for her, or Lu Zhong's person who made her interested, in short, Yu Hibiscus is in a particularly good mood now.
Lu Zhong and Eli were walking on the way back to the inn, and suddenly Lu Zhong paused, as if he remembered something, his expression was serious, and he said to Eli: "Suffer! We forgot to ask for a reward, a hundred yuan of Yu coins!"
When he heard this, his plush hand turned into a fist, and he gave Lu Zhong a punch and scolded: "You forgot such an important matter, hurry up and go back to get it!"
Lu Zhong refused to move for a long time, and said: "I want to go to you, anyway, I can't pull off that face, I was kicked out by others just now, and now I am coming up again, aren't you looking for discomfort?"
"We can't do it, can we?"
"Why don't you wait for her on the ferry?" Lu Zhong proposed.
"You know if what she just said is true, in case it was a lie to you, in fact, she didn't go to the Eastern Wilderness at all, then wouldn't we be in a miserable loss!"
"Hmm...... No, from what I've just observed, she's very interested in what you're saying. This is related to her future road to a smooth road, she will definitely not be able to let go easily, so we must have a chance to see each other again, and the hundred Yu coins must be in our pockets. Lu Zhong calmly analyzed.
"Lu boy, I hope you are not gullible to the wrong person, then we will wait for a while. Erli said lightly.
Along the way, I heard people talking from afar, and everything that happened in the small building by the lake just now has been reported here.
Lu Zhong couldn't help but sigh, the news spread too fast. It seems that he will not be able to go out in a few days, in case he is recognized, he is the person who is Xiaozhu by the lake. Isn't he going to be beaten to death by the people?
Lu finally made up his mind, stayed quietly in the inn for the past few days, and waited until a few days later to go directly to the ferry.
But now there is still the problem of not knowing what the conditions for boarding the ferry are, whether to give money or whether there are other requirements.
Lu Zhong sighed softly, sighing...... Maybe I'll have to go out and find out the news. But what if you get recognized after you go out?
After pondering for a moment, he said to Erli: "Erli, why don't you go out and inquire about the news and ask what the conditions for boarding the ferry are? If we ask for a lot of money, we have to find another way. ”
Erli glanced at Lu Zhong and sneered: "Heh, it's not your fault, who told you that you didn't ask the woman to ask for our money, you forgot such an important matter." ”
Lu Zhong retorted: "You haven't forgotten, but if you want to remind me like that, the money will already be in our pockets." ”
"Blame me?"
"No, how dare I!"
"Hmph, it's better not to. Otherwise, you will wait until you go to find out the news, and Uncle Ben will not bother to pay attention to you. Erli said indignantly.
"Then go now, what are you doing in a daze? Besides, with your current shape, it's not easy to get a piece of news. In the eyes of others, you are just an ordinary rabbit, a natural spy. It's a waste to have such good conditions and not to use it. Lu Zhong praised without a trace.
Erli glanced at Lu Zhong and said lightly: "Wait!" After speaking, he ran away.
Lu finally saw that Erli was really obedient and went to inquire about the information. He was still a little stunned for a while, he was already planning to go by himself, and he really didn't have much confidence in him. But since he was gone, he just waited quietly in the inn.
Lu Zhong is now walking on the road, and he has gradually seen some people pointing at him, Lu Zhong was speechless for a while, is this mother-in-law so charming?
Lu Zhong quickened his pace and hurriedly walked towards the inn.
Back at the inn, Lu Zhong began to think about the next trip. In a few days, the ferry will come to Bairen City, although the ferry is not as fast as the domain gate teleportation, but this is already the best choice at the moment.
Just now at the Hibiscus girl's place, I heard her say that she was also waiting for the ferry. It can be seen that the chamber of commerce ferries here are not only used to transport goods, but sometimes they also carry pedestrians, but for merchants, they will not do things that are not profitable. Judging from Lu Zhong's speculation, this ferry business must not be a whim, it is estimated that it is because of the huge benefits in it, so it will transport goods and people at the same time.
Soon after, Eli returned to the inn. Sure enough, you need to pay money to board the ferry, and the cost of the ferry varies depending on the distance of the journey, although the end point of the ferry is in the Eastern Wilderness, but there will also be some large city-states on the way, and Bairencheng is just one of the transit stations.
From Bairen City to the Eastern Wilderness, it takes twenty Yu coins. This is undoubtedly a huge amount of money for the current Lu Zhong. If the money from Jade Hibiscus hadn't arrived, Lu would be penniless now, and Erli had some resources there that could be exchanged for currency, but he didn't have to worry about whether he could board the ferry.
The money can only be earned later, and the first task now is to get on the ship first, and then go to the East Wilderness. Let's see if I can sneak into Fangcun Academy, and find out if there is a way to make Lu Zhong condense his physical body.
After inquiring about everything, Lu Zhong's heart slowly relaxed, hoping that everything would go well.
"Boy Lu, in addition, Uncle Ben also inquired that the Fangcun Academy in the Eastern Wasteland will soon recruit disciples in Fangcun Mountain, and this matter will be held once a year, but this year may be different. Because the Reckless Demon Clan has been very active recently, and has sent an embassy to fight with the academy. Both of these things are in the recent past, and during this period of time, people from various states have gone to the Eastern Wilderness, so it is not impossible for us to sneak into the academy. Erli calmly analyzed.
"Isn't that good? Doesn't this increase our chances of fishing in troubled waters? Lu Zhong looked like he didn't care about himself.
Then he said: "Just wait for the ferry to come in a few days, and everything will wait until the Eastern Wasteland, and see the situation first." This kind of competition with foreign races is not something that we say can be mixed up. ”
"By the way, let me ask you one thing, isn't the demon clan your home? Lu Zhong thought about it and asked Erli.
"Bah, you're in the same family as they are. Uncle Ben has long said that I am a family. No one is worthy of being my family. Erli said proudly.
It's not the first time Lu Zhong has heard this sentence, but he has never believed it, and he thought that Erli was talking big. It doesn't seem like that way now, and judging by its miraculousness, maybe it's all real.
Lu Zhong faced the doom for the first time, and never treated it as an unlucky rabbit again. Its origin is the same as that of the black jade stone, and it is completely mysterious. But no matter what, it is now a grasshopper on a rope with himself, Lu Zhong needs his ability and knowledge, and Doom Li also needs Lu Zhong to help him suppress his bad luck.
Shaking his head, he threw these thoughts out of his mind, this kind of thing is not something that can be thought out for a while. As long as Lu Zhong is still alive. One day, he will discover the truth of everything.
......
A few days later, Lu Zhong and Erli reappeared at the door of the Immortal Tower, which was already overcrowded, and these people were probably waiting for the ferry. Therefore, the competition between the academy and the reckless demon clan has attracted the attention of many people.
After a while, a steward came out and signaled everyone to be quiet. Everyone here knew that he was a person from the Immortal Building, and they would sell him a face, and he soon quieted down.
I saw the man say in a loud voice: "Presumably everyone is here to take the ferry, there are a few precautions, I need to remind everyone here first." First of all, this ferry is not free. Depending on the distance, we will determine how many coins are needed, and we can only board the ship after paying the money. Secondly, once you board the boat, everyone will have their own place. Don't run around on the boat, if something happens, you will be at your own risk. Again, there should never be any fights on the ship. No matter who it is, once it is discovered, it will be regarded as a provocation to the Changsheng Building, and it will be hostile to everyone in the Changsheng Building, and a reward will be offered. Last but not least, I wish you all a great trip!"
After Lu finally paid the money, he boarded the ferry, which was like a pavilion built in the air, huge and incomparable, covering the sky and the sun. It can be seen that the financial resources of Changshenglou are huge, and all states have industries, which is not unreasonable.
Following the ship's attendants, they came to a guest room on the ship. Lu Zhong looked at the rows of rooms next to him. These must have been for those of them.
"Childe, please don't run around after you get on the boat, we will try our best to meet your needs. If there is nothing to do, I will retire first. The squire reminded.
"Thank you!" Lu finally thanked him.
Entering the room, it was just a simple guest room, no extra decoration, and the inn room was about the same, just slightly smaller. But for this ferry, it is already quite good, after all, this ship is a commercial ship that transports goods, and not a real passenger ship.
Although Lu Zhong didn't have much demand for these, the twenty Yu coins were really distressed. But there is no way, the East Wilderness is what he must go.
But fortunately, he still has a hundred Yu coins in the jade hibiscus, thinking of this, Lu Zhong was stunned for a moment: "It's over, how can we find that girl? ”
When he heard this, he snorted coldly: "He said that if he doesn't want to go shopping, he won't go shopping." He can only stop some people in this way, but the real adventurous people don't care about that. ”
"That's true, but the point is that we don't know where she is?" Lu Zhong was sad for a while, and now he didn't even know if the woman was on the boat, let alone looking for someone. Thinking of this, Lu Zhong sighed in his heart, he miscalculated!
"Hmph, Uncle Ben told you a long time ago, but you blame yourself for not listening, and now you don't have to rely on Uncle Ben!"
Lu Zhong humbly taught, "Yes, yes, yes, I have to trouble Uncle Doli!"
Hearing this, Erli was shocked, it hadn't heard Lu Zhong so complimented for a long time, and his mood suddenly improved, and he was slightly proud, and said: "Uncle Ben felt her breath on the boat, and she really got on the boat." I'll show you the way and get our money back. ”
Lu Zhong didn't care how Erli knew the location of the jade hibiscus, but since she was on the boat, it was easy to say. Although Lu Zhong didn't really want to face Jade Hibiscus. But those 100 Yu coins are a huge wealth for the current Lu Zhong.
Thinking that after going to the Eastern Wilderness, it would cost money everywhere, and Lu Zhong was big for a while. At that time, when he was in Biluo Huangquan Sect, it was better to pull down his face and go to An Jing, as long as Lu Zhong spoke at that time. , An Jing will definitely not refuse. So, people, sometimes it's better to have a thicker skin.
