Chapter Twenty-Eight: Buying and Returning the Pearls
Early the next morning, Xu Zhen and Li Yi came to wait for him outside Fang Shili's cave mansion. Fang Shili simply cleaned up and walked with the two of them to Xingchaju. Apricot tea lives on the apricot blossom street, not far from this mortal inn, the apricot blossom tea here is quite fragrant and elegant, and the number of times three people come here in half a year is not small.
Only half a pillar of incense Kung Fu Fang Shili three people came here. This is a simple and elegant two-storey pavilion, with a fresh and elegant tea fragrance coming from it, which can be smelled from afar.
There are more than 100 tables in the tea hall, and there are already twenty or thirty people sitting in the hall at this moment, and the person at the head table is an old man, he is dressed in ink clothes, although he is old, but he is full of energy, and his body is not to be underestimated.
This person is the shopkeeper of this apricot tea house, Fang Yan.
Seeing the three of Fang Shili, Fang Yan's eyes lit up, and he said in surprise: "The three Taoist friends are also here!
Fang Shili and the three of them bowed to Fang Yu, and then found a table to sit down at random. The twenty or thirty people who have arrived are basically familiar with each other, and almost all of them have seen them at the tea party in Xinghuaju. Among these people, in addition to Fang Yan, there was another foundation building cultivator, a middle-aged man with an ordinary face, and a small black mole grew on the corner of his mouth. It should have sensed that Fang Shili was looking at him, and the middle-aged man with the black mole turned his head to look at Fang Shili and grinned at him.
The meaning of this person's smile was quite profound, and Fang Shili felt a pang in his heart, thoughtful.
At this time, another person came in outside, it was an old woman in a silver robe, her body was extraordinary, and she was also building a foundation.
As soon as this old woman walked in, everyone's faces changed, and many cultivators' eyes flashed, and they had already retreated. This old woman Fang Shili also knows, her person gave the nickname Yinyu Shangren, and her cultivation has reached the middle stage of foundation building, and her snake driving skills are strange and unpredictable, plus her temperamental personality, ordinary people do not want to provoke. It has been two years since she came to this Falling Sword City, and she brought her grandson to worship the Sword Pavilion.
"Fang Yan, how are the people arriving?"
The Venerable Yinyu is also not polite, her cultivation has reached the middle stage of foundation building, and this party is only in the early stage of foundation building, and this old thing picks flowers and makes tea every day, and he can already be regarded as giving him face by being able to get here. If it weren't for the fear that the white pear ban would not be opened, she would probably find an opportunity to catch this old boy and then directly ask where the pear orchard is.
"Venerable Master, wait a little longer, wait a little longer!" Fang Yan bowed to her apologetically, but no one saw a cold glint in his eyes as he lowered his head.
"Hmph!" the Silver Master snorted coldly, closing his eyes and recuperating.
After a quarter of an hour, more than a dozen cultivators came one after another, most of them were cultivators in the middle and late stages of the condensation vein, and there were no more foundation building cultivators. These people are all capable of producing a hundred medium-grade spirit stones, their backgrounds are all extraordinary, and each of them has an extremely good bearing.
After a while, it was determined that no one was coming, Fang Yan stood at the front and saluted everyone: "Fellow Daoists, if you want to quit at this moment, it is still too late, after all, this hundred medium-grade spirit stones are by no means a small number. ”
A few people in the hall looked at the Silver Lady with a look of struggle on their faces, and after a moment they sighed, hugged their fists at Fang Yu, and left apologetically. There are still thirty-seven cultivators left.
Fang Yan nodded: "Everyone, please come with me, I have already hired the Ten Thousand Miles Wind Beast, and it can take us out of the city within an hour." ”
The Silver Venerable Man sneered: "You are generous, no wonder, you just earned such a large sum of spirit stones......
Thirty-seven people are three thousand seven hundred spirit stones, and I am afraid that ordinary Jindan real people do not have such a net worth, so she can't help but be blushing.
Fang Yu laughed and didn't talk.
Everyone walked out of the teahouse, and there were already more than ten tall cyan horses lined up in front of the door, these horses were pulling carriages behind them, and there was a breeze sweeping between the neighing, and there was no sound under the hooves between the kicks, as if hanging in the air, which made people sigh.
The three or four of them sat in a carriage, and the cyan steed flew like a sword from the string, and in an instant it was a few feet away, and there was no bump in the carriage.
Fang Shili and the three of them sat in a carriage, and at this moment, Li Yan sighed a little: "This Thousand Miles of Wind Beast is really extraordinary, it is really a wind without a trace......
Fang Shili looked solemn and said in a low voice: "Brother Li, Xu Zhen, there are three foundation building cultivators involved in this matter this time, we should be careful, don't be greedy! Once the momentum is not right, let's flee together!"
Li Yan and Xu Zhen also looked solemn and nodded solemnly.
In just one hour, this line of Breeze Beasts carried these cultivators to the gate of the Falling Sword City, and everyone dismounted. This spirit beast had to be used in the Falling Sword City, and it could not be taken out of the city.
Fang Yan said: "Fellow Daoists, please follow me!"
With that, he took the lead and flew forward. Everyone hurriedly followed with the imperial envoy spirit weapon. With Fang Yu's cultivation of building the foundation, if he really flies, most of the people will probably not be able to catch up with him. However, he deliberately slowed down at the moment, and Fang Shili and the others were also comfortable following him.
Suddenly, a gray giant snake with a size of dozens of zhang came behind and caught up with everyone, and there was an old woman standing on the head of the snake, who was the silver man. The giant snake almost rampaged and landed beside everyone, causing many people to sway from side to side, almost unstable and uncontrollable. This snake is magnificent, and it actually has the coercion of building a foundation, at this moment, the blood basin mouth is open, and a silent roar is heard, and the scales on the body stand up inch by inch, and the fishy smell is soaring.
Everyone dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, and the old woman who came with the snake looked proud, and landed behind Fang Yu unhurriedly, ahead of everyone. After flying above the Great Wilderness for several hours, Fang Yu stopped in an inconspicuous place and fell to the light.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have arrived. ”
The Silver Snake suddenly stopped behind him, and with a wave of his hand, the huge gray snake shrank inch by inch, as if it had leaked air, and turned into a small snake the thickness of a thumb, which was quite small and cute. The little snake swam into the Silver Flyer's robes and wrapped around her deadwood-like arms.
"Fang Yan, are you kidding the old body?" she asked, with a gloomy face.
Everyone was also confused, looking around blankly, where was the shadow of the pear orchard around. There was no grass growing in all directions, no one was inhabited, and the wailing of the old crow was heard in the distance, intermittently, echoing in the ears over and over again.
"Senior Fang, dare to ask where this pear orchard is?"
A monk at the peak of the condensation vein asked. However, the silver master suddenly looked thoughtfully at Fang Yan's back and did not speak again.
Fang Yan smiled mysteriously, "Everyone, if you step through, you will be the difference between heaven and earth! ”
With that, he turned around and took a step forward.
Everyone was amazed, Fang Yan's figure actually disappeared without warning in this step, as if he had stepped into some inexplicable place from here. Who would have thought that the famous pear orchard would be hidden in such an inconspicuous place, hidden in the wilderness, and the treasure realm would be obscure.
At this moment, Fang Yan had already entered, and the rest of the people looked at each other, but no one took the lead in making any moves.
The Silver Venerable Man smiled coldly: "A group of young people who are as timid as rats, they are afraid to do things, and it is difficult to become a big thing!" After saying that, she first threw the little snake into the position where Fang Yu had entered before, and the snake suddenly disappeared.
The crowd pouted secretly, aren't you afraid? Aren't you afraid to throw a snake into it to explore the way?
But seeing that the silver master closed his eyes and sensed, after a while, the corners of his mouth grinned, and without hesitation, his figure disappeared in an instant, thinking that he had already entered the pear orchard.
Everyone also had a bottom in their hearts, and they walked into the invisible door one after another.
Fang Shili stepped in one step and suddenly opened up.
As far as the eye can see, there is ice and jade, and a flawless snow white, as if the whole world is paved with pear blossoms. Countless pear trees are slim and beautiful. The sky was light blue and a little washed white, and a thick layer of pear blossoms fell on the ground, like snow. The horizon and the foot and the boundless pear blossoms reflect each other, which is also real and illusory, like a fairyland. Although the whiteness of this world is pure, it is not dazzling, but soft and tactful, which makes people feel refreshed.
These thirty or so monks stood between heaven and earth, as if they had become the only stain on the pear orchard.
There is no wind in this area, but the refreshing fragrance of pear blossoms seems to sweep into a fresh breeze, and the fresh earthy smell turns into a vibrant vitality.
Fang Shili looked at these pear trees, the pear blossoms were adorned, and from time to time there were snow-white petals falling slowly from the branches, but it was not as poignant as the flowers outside when they withered, and the scene here seemed beautiful and peaceful. There are also some pear trees full of spirit pears, which keep falling to the ground with a clatter, and are held by a thick layer of petals, but they are not hurt in the slightest.
Fang Shi was really happy to see it, picked up a pear and took a bite. This pear's mouth is sweet, fragrant and fragrant, making the mouth relish.
"Xiao Fang, it's time to get to the door of chance, you still have time to eat pears. Xu Zhen teased him on the side.
"Ladies and gentlemen, thirty miles ahead are those three white pears. Fang Yan said with a smile. "Of course, this heaven and earth will close at some point, if you are interested, you can pick some spiritual pears and go back, although there is not much spiritual power in this pear, but it is also a rare spiritual fruit. ”
There are more than a million pear trees in this pear orchard, and the spiritual pears on the pear trees are countless, everything in the world is like this, and rarity is precious. Everyone didn't look at these spirit pears, at most they gathered some and put them in storage bags when they went forward.
But everyone walked forward, but Fang Shili deviated from the front of everyone and went to the side, and he saw that the pear trees there were older and more spiritual.
"Xiao Fang, what are you doing?" Xu Zhen was so anxious that he stomped his feet on the side.
Fang Shili said jokingly, "This spirit pear is really good, I'll pick some and keep it for later." We also spent three hundred spirit stones, wouldn't it be a big loss if we didn't bring anything back?"
"Go first, it won't take much effort for me to pick some pears. He said as he flew to the right.
Seeing that Fang Shili was obsessed, Xu Zhen had no choice but to follow everyone forward with Li Zhen.
In front of the avenue, no one wants to be one step behind. After all, one more breath is one more chance, what is the difference between Fang Shili's stupid boy's move and buying a pearl......
