Chapter 129: Luoyang
Luoyang City, as one of the best Xiongguan towns in the mountains, has long been tempered by the wind and sand on the brick wall of the city guard has long been gone, and the black purple blood is brown outside, not like copper and iron, but as if it is cast with blood. The city wall is as far as the eye can see, and it is as long as this ancient city that has taken root for thousands of years.
The Haidong Qingqun turned back here.
Luoyang is an important town, the management is naturally strict, and all those who enter the city must be registered in the register and need to go through the customs documents. However, a few government scribes sprinkled ink like the wind around them, and they did not rest for a while, and the long queue under the city gate still moved for half a day.
Chang Xi and the four of them stopped with their swords in front of the city pass, and the monks of the Shangqing Palace naturally did not have the reason to wait in line to enter the customs, and immediately the chief hurriedly opened the way for them. Chang Xi came to Luoyang for the first time, and he inevitably had to handle the customs entry documents, and the scribe did not dare to delay with his hands and feet, and quickly sent it to Chang Xi. Chang Xi put away the paper and explained what he meant to Qiu Li.
Qiu Li said with some surprise: "Senior Brother Chang, are you going to leave now?"
Chang Xi nodded and said, "Senior Brother Qiu Li, aren't you coming to Luoyang City on this mission? Then I should also go and find a way to return to Huizhou." ”
Send you a thousand miles, and there will be a farewell. Qiu Li said: "There are dragons and snakes in Luoyang City, Senior Brother Chang, you have to be careful at all times." As soon as the words fell, he saw Chang Xi take out a delicate jade bottle and hand it to him, his hand was cold, and the sound of the bottle swaying out was not like an elixir, but like some kind of liquid, he couldn't help asking, "What is this?"
"It is a good medicine for eye diseases, Senior Brother Qiu Li may wish to try it in his spare time, maybe it will have an effect. ”
Qiu Li was shocked when he heard this, but quickly calmed down, and solemnly put the jade bottle into the storage bag and thanked Chang Xi. Chang Xi waved his hand, said solemnly, his figure did not drag the mud and water at all, and soon squeezed into the surging crowd in the city and disappeared.
"I only heard others talk about how powerful the disciples of the Five Sects were, but I didn't care about it, I just said that it was a cloud of people, and I couldn't do it seriously. But what I saw and heard on this day is no longer convinced. Chi Ming crossed his arms and looked at the direction of Chang Xi's departure and said sincerely, with a look of admiration on his face.
Ling Xuan even said conclusively: "This son will become a great weapon in the future." ”
"Don't talk too much, the task assigned by the master is important. ”
Suppressing the many complicated emotions in his heart, Qiu Li waved his hand to interrupt Chi Ming and Ling Xuan's expressions, and the three of them suddenly disappeared into a corner of the city that was empty.
......
The golden egg pocket is not big or small around the waist, but it is also an annoying thing. The black-shirted young man looked dignified and stood with a sword on his shoulder, but there was an egg hanging from his waist, no matter how he looked at it, it was very weird, and Chang Xi had no choice but to find an inn that looked quite magnificent for monks to settle down.
Although Chang Xi knew that trading outside the sect required a thing called spirit stones, and there were many spirit stones of different colors and sizes left by Liu Yuan in his storage bag, the problem was that he didn't know the purchasing power represented behind these spirit stones.
The shopkeeper, who also had the cultivation of the foundation building realm, glanced at Chang Xi, who was standing a little cramped in front of the cabinet, raised his pen and scratched it on the account book, and said loudly: "Tianzi room, ten lower grade spirit stones in one night." ”
Chang Xi took out a blue spirit stone the size of a palm from the storage bag and handed it to the shopkeeper, his eyes staring, for fear of making a joke.
Taking the spirit stone, the shopkeeper frowned and said, "Does the guest officer have a low-grade spirit stone?"
Chang Xi sneered in his heart, if I knew which one was a low-grade spirit stone, would I still need to be so careful, but there was an innocent expression on his face and said, "No." ”
After torturing the innocent shopkeeper, Chang Xi had already figured out the trick of conversion and immediately returned to his guest room.
Only the Tianzi room is equipped with the prohibition of sound and vision insulation, and these ten pieces of low-grade spirit stone flowers are also worth it. Chang Xi carefully checked the soundproofing formation to make sure that everything was normal and no one had touched it, and then began to count the spirit stones.
"Ninety lower-grade spirit stones, ninety-nine middle-grade spirit stones, and nine high-grade spirit stones, which are converted into a total of ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety spirit stones, this Liu Yuan is really rich, so rich that he can't even look down on the lower-grade spirit stones?"
Chang Xi was shocked by his current wealth, and he could be called a broad young man.
With such a windfall, Chang Xi's mind couldn't help but start to liven, after all, he didn't know what kind of danger he would encounter during the return journey of more than 100,000 miles, and how to effectively use this large amount of spirit stone was the top priority. It is the saddest thing to be like Liu Yuan who incarnated as a good wealth boy and became someone else's wedding dress, Chang Xi asked himself if he was not such a fool.
After a while, Chang Xi had already changed into a brand new black robe and went downstairs.
Since this inn is dedicated to accommodating monks to settle down, the guys who run the hall naturally have no reason to hire mortals, and all of them are in the early stage of the Qi Refining Realm. It's just that his roots are not good, or because it is difficult to make any more progress in repairing the line, or maybe he has become an outcast of the sect, so he came here to be a buddy.
The worldly gold and silver are useless, relying on his wealth, Chang Xi, who was sitting by the window, asked for a pot of spiritual tea, and stuffed a low-grade spiritual stone into the man's hand without a trace.
A low-grade spirit stone is worthy of his half-month salary, the guy is naturally overjoyed, peeked at the shopkeeper and didn't notice him, and hurriedly stuffed the spirit stone into the cloth pocket, and his face has changed to a courteous smile: "What does the guest officer want to inquire? The little one must know everything, and he will say everything." ”
Pretending to take a few sips of tea, Chang Xi said in a deep voice: "If you want to buy some monk spiritual weapons in this Luoyang City, where is the best?"
"Senior, you're asking the right person. ”
Although he couldn't see Chang Xi's specific cultivation realm, the man's eyes and thoughts were very active, and he filled the teacup that Chang Xi put down, and said in a low voice: "If the predecessors want to buy the best spiritual weapons, it should be the most famous Wanbao Pavilion in Luoyang City." It is said that there is still a lot of backing behind the Wanbao Pavilion, and there is no force in the huge Luoyang City that can drink a few mouthfuls of soup from the mouth of the Wanbao Pavilion. ”
Chang Xi tapped his fingers on the table to look at the bustling crowd outside the window, and said lightly: "What you said about the situation of Wanbao Pavilion, do others know?"
The guy didn't hear the meaning, and replied repeatedly: "Of course, Wanbao Pavilion is known to everyone in Luoyang City." ”
"Then isn't my piece of spirit stone a little wronged? These news are not worth it. Chang Xi turned his head to look at the guy, with a smile on his face.
The guy's face turned pale when he heard this, and he immediately tightened the hard-won spirit stone in his cloth pocket, just now he still felt that this inconspicuous young senior had a little tender face, and it was only half a cup of tea that made him pay no attention to the Tao.
"Senior, you just ask, and you will definitely be satisfied. ”
The man is obviously out of the way, and a monk like him who lives at the bottom is actually not much better than the situation of a mortal, except that he has a better physique, and he has less troubles about three plagues and six diseases. Don't underestimate the income of this spirit stone, but it is enough to make him no longer so depressed and shabby in his next half month's life.
A pot of tea was leisurely served, Chang Xi had already made a clear picture of the recent big and small matters in Luoyang City, but the guy was so dry that his throat was smoking.
After paying for the tea, the black shirt flashed and disappeared outside the door. The guy smiled bitterly and shook his head, lamenting that money is not easy to earn, and the world is difficult. I just wanted to turn around and go to the back kitchen to pour a few wells to quench my thirst, but I suddenly felt heavy in my hands, and when I looked down, I realized that there was another spirit stone in my palm.
His heart trembled, and he suddenly felt that this world seemed to have a little more human touch.
