It's good to ride a bad horse lightly, and it's a traveler in the face of the wind and rain. . . Li Ji went all the way north, and the two horses took turns, which was very fast. In less than ten days, he left the country in the south and entered the territory of Zhengguo. The way of travel lies in the front tightened and then loosened, since he left the border, he no longer had to worry about the pursuit of the government, Li Ji slowed down, thinking of finding a big city to have a good rest, whether it was him or two horses, these days are not light. Three days later, a majestic city appeared in front of him.

Xichang City, the big city of Zhengguo, is located in the Qingcang River, the confluence of the Liuma River, has a long history, convenient transportation, developed industry and commerce, prosperous culture, is the richest city in Zhengguo, and the twin cities are like a village compared with it.

Li Ji entered the city by road, and he was not cross-examined, let alone the so-called entrance fee and the like, which really showed the bearing and mind of a big city. The main gate of the city was closed, and people entered and exited through the two side gates, and merchants, scholars, farmers, and hawkers were crowded with people, dense but not chaotic.

Lead the horse into the city gate, a clean and tidy atmosphere rushes to the face, the roads in the city are paved with bluestone, the houses next to the road are also mostly two- and three-storey small buildings, the brick and stone structure is the mainstay, many buildings are also carved beams and painted columns, showing luxury. Li Ji found an idler on the side of the road, promised half a tael of silver, and said that he was looking for a quiet, tidy inn, the money was not spent in vain, the idler was a local, and he was very embarrassed to get foreign wealth, and took Li Ji for a long time and led it to the door of Wenhe Inn. The inn is not big, but it is in a great location and very secluded. Li Ji was very satisfied, asked for an upper room, settled the horses properly, and then instructed the men to get hot water, took a bath happily, fell into bed, and fell asleep immediately.

I slept well until the next morning, and I didn't wake up until the next morning, feeling refreshed and tired. Since the escape from the twin cities, running all the way, both physical and psychological pressure is not small, now it is finally safe, and you must always enjoy the customs of this big city.

Xichang, known as Wenhui in ancient times, takes the meaning of elegance and literature to be appreciated, and the gathering of talents, is the most prosperous place of Zhengguo, and even the northern Hanzhou literary style, for thousands of years, there are countless famous poets, great writers, great lyricists and composers in the northern regions, and it is the holy place in the hearts of the scholars of the Northern Regions, and the palace of Wenyu. Li Ji traveled all the way, especially the feeling, on the street, in addition to the low-level people who need to run for life, the most are the scholars with long robes and wide sleeves and lupine crowns, showing elegant and literary atmosphere. The shops on the side of the road are also mostly related to reading, pen and ink stationery, bookstore printing, and even in the air, there seems to be a faint fragrance of paper and ink.

'Picking people on the waterside of Songxi, the fragrance of paper and ink in the depths of the famous pavilion', this is the kind of scene.

Li Ji walked on the street, but he felt a little out of place with his surroundings, like him, short coats, fast boots leggings, and carrying a long sword warrior outfit, but it was extremely rare. Thinking of the identity of the scholar of the Yue Clan Country on his own road, he didn't feel slightly embarrassed. 'It seems that we have to change our outfits.,Now it's too eye-catching.,It's not noticeable.。。。 Li Ji did it as soon as he thought of it, caught a glimpse of a ready-to-wear store and plunged into it.

When Li Ji came out of the ready-to-wear store, the whole person had a new look, a moon-white scribe's robe was upright on his steel-like body, the fly in the ointment was that he had an ordinary face, a dark complexion, and was still 108,000 miles away from being suave... The scribe's hat also bought one, no way, in Cixi for the convenience of the war and the habits of the previous life, so the hair was shaved short, which is no problem in Cixi, which is remote and multi-ethnic, but out of this world, I found that most of the people in the world have long hair, which is the same as in ancient times, so I wear a hat to cover it... He didn't change the fast boots, which is a matter of life and death, and the thick-soled official boots of the literati really affect the flexibility of the body... The heavy sword can no longer be tied to the back, so I have to find a scabbard to tie around my waist, the heavy sword is too thin, and the scabbard is completely unmatched, and I have to settle... Li Ji looked in the mirror, at first glance, he seemed to be a bit of a scribe, but after a closer look, how did he feel a little nondescript?

Xichang diet, pay attention to clear, fresh, crisp, tender, sweet, exquisite workmanship, and his previous life in Jiangsu, Zhejiang cuisine has some commonality. Compared to these appetizing delicacies, the food in the Twin Cities area is much more modest. Li Ji traveled all the way, tasting all the way, but he was not happy.

Xichang is very big, and he can't walk much with his feet, and Li Ji doesn't have any fixed goals, but he does it casually. In the evening, I found a restaurant next to the inn, and I tasted snacks during the day, but now I want to try the main dish, under the introduction of the guy, I ordered a few local famous dishes, fragrant braised foie gras, green cang's drunken fish, roasted pork ribs, white dried shrimp, and the dishes are on the table. The martial artist has a wide stomach, and he is not short of money, so he asked for four dishes, chestnut roast chicken, sugar sauce belly, Xichang meat bones, seaweed tofu, and pot flower carving, good wine and good dishes, exotic customs, plus a comfortable mood, only Li Ji was sour and refreshing.

When he was chewing himself, a table of guests next to him shouted loudly to Xiao Er to settle the bill, and after a few richly dressed middle-aged men pushed it with false affection, one of them settled the bill, and the other was still polite, "Today I was entertained by Brother Wang, it was my brother who bothered me, but in the coming day, if Xiao'er is lucky enough to be elected to the Taoist Palace, he will enter the cultivation of the truth, and he will set up a banquet in Dengxian Tower to thank him. . . ”

"Lao Li, don't coax me to wait, who doesn't know that your daughter can't even read Mengxue, how can she be elected to the Dao Palace? A few people left the restaurant noisily, but Li Ji couldn't eat the wine.

Dao Gong, Xiuzhen, Nanli's accent is not much different from Xichang, Li Ji is sure that he heard it very clearly, could it be that Xichang City has such a channel to contact the high-ranking road of cultivating immortals?

Entering the guest room, Li Ji thought about it, he was so confused, he thought about it, the opportunity he had to risk his life to get in the heavy law office, could it be that it was so rare in a big city?

Xiao Er grinned, "Dao Palace, of course I know, but who doesn't know Xichang City... Guest officers can go to Jibei Street, go straight to the south, a four-story mansion is, very eye-catching, then you can see it... ”

"Then do you know what are the obstacles and restrictions in and out of the Dao Palace, and what are the requirements if you go to the Dao Palace to study?"

"Forgive me, guest officer, but I don't know about these, anyway, it's a place where only the nobles in the city can go... The young man looked confused.

"In this case, you can step down" Throwing him a piece of broken silver, Li Ji thought to himself, it seems that it is necessary to go to the Dao Palace tomorrow to find out. Although the Daoist gave him a chance, it was difficult to find an immortal fate, and one more opportunity would be one more point to grasp.
