Chapter 138: The Gilded City
The White Tiger Collar is also like the Green Dragon Collar, with the strongest sect as the administrator of the territory, and this sect is the Gilded Sect.
The Gilded Sect has a long history and a long heritage, and it is also a sect that has participated in the act of opening the heavens.
The gilded city was established by this gilded sect, just like the Yunmu Gate established the Yunmu City, as a way for his sect to retreat in the future. This city is much more famous than Yunmu City, because there is a special mineral in this white tiger collar, gold and fire mines.
The golden flint refined from the gold fire ore is a very suitable material for refining, and in the process of refining the golden flint, some things called flowing gold flame stones will also fall off, this kind of flowing gold flame stone has no value in refining, after all, it is just an alternative impurity that falls off the gold flint.
And this kind of flowing gold flame stone has a very ornamental value, this stone is a flint, can be used as a special flint for fuel, after ignition will appear like a flowing metal, golden but like a starlight dot of special flame, which is also the origin of the name of his flowing gold flame stone.
This kind of flowing gold flame stone is often used as a decoration for lighting at night, and special flames are burned in groups in the city, forming the famous gilt city night scene.
Although Wei Xing and the others didn't know what the rules in the gilded city were, the city must also be forbidden, so they stopped the Tianluo Treasure Ship when it was still a little distance.
After getting off the boat, it happened to be night now, the night wind was shuttling through the forest, Wei Xing and the others looked at the gilded city standing in the dark night, and their hearts were more or less shocked by the beautiful scenery.
First of all, this city is very huge, compared to Yunmu City, it is like a sleeping beast in the night, exuding an amazing momentum, the buildings in the city are very tall, countless lights are like stars in the night, but they are shining with golden light, flowing in the whole city, beautiful.
Wei Xing and the others entered the city, and under the arrangement of the guards, they all handed over the spirit stone to do the road guide, and when they entered the city, they could experience the brightness of this gilded city, as if the whole person was in a golden world.
"It is worthy of being a gilded city, and it really lives up to its name, it is really a spectacular spectacle!"
"Yes, yes, Yunmu City is too deserted compared to here, you look at the crowds coming and going on the street, wow, there are many more people than Yunmu City. ”
Lao Xu and Yu Shang were amazed, and the night wilderness on the side also chatted with Su Yi's father and son.
"This is the first time that our father and son have left the Qinglong Territory, Yi'er, haven't you always wanted to go to a distant place to see, now that you are here, you can enjoy it, even if I have heard of the night view of the gilded city. ”
"I've wanted to come a long time ago, Dad, if you hadn't left the Gluttonous Secret Realm for too long, you would have brought me here earlier, right?"
"Haha, of course!"
Looking at the familiar and beautiful scene in front of him, Qin Huanghai couldn't help but think of the apprentices who came with him and circled around him.
Especially his two proud disciples, Ye Qin and Xiao Yuchen, their eyes involuntarily moistened, and Liu Jingshui on the side came over to comfort him: "Elder Qin, it's all over, and now it's a new beginning." ”
Qin Huanghai breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "The moment the apprentices left the school, they had already left me and became a member of the thousands of monks in the Great World, even if they were closely related to me, they could not always accompany themselves, and they would instantly become people who were very close but far away. At this moment, I feel pride and relief in my heart, but more often than not, I feel sadness and loneliness. ”
"Maybe it's because I'm too dependent on them, and I'm reluctant to let them leave me, so I established everything knows, but you can also see the result, although lonely, that's the truth of this world, they are all free lives, and the goods are my behavior of tying them to me made me suffer the consequences later, so I can't hate them at all. ”
The topic was a little heavy, everyone was silent, Wei Xing was unaware of this, and said: "Wanting someone to accompany you is a normal thing, aren't we just by your side now?"
Qin Huanghai was stunned for a moment, and the tendon in his brain seemed to have turned a little, "Yes, haha, it's really a place of blessing and misfortune, and a place of misfortune and blessing! Although I was driven out by my apprentices, I also had to meet the head and everyone because of this." ”
"Well, there seems to be another scent coming from there, let's hurry over. Wei Xing said lightly, the expression in front was still the same, but when it came to the back, he looked impatient and drooling, and Liu Jingshui, Qin Huanghai and the others covered their faces.
Weixing and his party wandered around and bought a lot of local special local products, especially Weixing harvested a lot, and ate almost every delicacy they encountered on the road.
Enough of playing, enough shopping, everyone came to an inn to stay, and then Lao Xu took the initiative to take over the task of finding out the news, and went to this gilded city to know everything, to buy and report.
In Yunmu City, although there is a suspicious greedy character in this gilded city that I bought, this person is particularly greedy for power, and is called a greedy wolf by people!
Soon Lao Xu got the information and came back to report to Weixing, "Master, I found out, this greedy wolf!"
Wei Xing called everyone together and had a small meeting, after all, the greedy wolf was the purpose of the big guy's coming this time, only to hear Lao Xu say slowly: "There is a monk in this gilded city, almost a household name, everyone knows it, his desire for full strength is like a wolf who is hungry to the extreme, so someone gave him a nickname called greedy wolf." ”
"I've already found out the specific situation of this person, boss, the situation is a little bad. This person is very strong, it has been many years since he stepped into the late stage of Jindan, and he is known for his combat effectiveness, if he just gets it like this, it is nothing, the worst thing is his identity, he is really prominent, not a 'nameless junior'. ”
"Oh!?" this piqued everyone's interest, and Vio asked, "Who is he?"
Lao Xu swallowed his saliva and said, "This is the most powerful sect in the White Tiger Collar, the elder of the Gilded Sect!"
"What!?" everyone was taken aback, they all guessed in their hearts when they heard that their identity was prominent, but they never expected that their identity would reach this point.
"It's really worthy of being called a greedy wolf, his pursuit of power has reached the limit, I really didn't expect to be climbed to this position by him, the elder of the Gilded Sect, that is a big man who stomps his feet and even the entire White Tiger Collar trembles!" Qin Huanghai said with a solemn face after being shocked.
"I know more than that, there are some secrets that are not secrets, the Gilded Sect lost on the battlefield of the pioneering war they were responsible for, and suffered heavy casualties, and the Heavenly Court did not allow them to work because of this, so they were forced to stay in the White Tiger Collar All the powerhouses went to the battlefield. Although there are still many masters in the Jindan Sect now, there is not even a single monk in the Yuan Infant Stage!" Lao Xu said.
"That's good news, it will be a lot easier for us to do that greedy wolf. Weixing said lightly. "This kind of person, I can't give him the huge power he wants, I don't think he will easily agree with me, even if I give him the face of greed, I'm afraid he won't want it. I can only force it and let him take it. ”
Everyone nodded, Lao Xu's words were not finished, and continued: "Also, it turned out that the head of the Gilded Sect was a monk in the Transformation Period, and now he was also taken away by the Heavenly Court, and a fierce infighting broke out in the Gilded Sect before, and three forces competed for the position of the head, one of which was the greedy wolf, whose real name was Leng Ziming, and then he failed, so he came to the Gilded City." ”
"Does failure have anything to do with coming to Gilded City?" Su Yi said curiously.
"Because he failed, he can only be an elder, and the position of the highest position in a sect is snatched by others, he must be very unwilling, and his current goal is to be the position of the gilded city lord. Lao Xu pointed out the window, the bustling night scene.
"I see. "Wei Xing has come to his senses," the gilded city is the back road of the gilded sect, and now he is already the elder of the gilded sect, if he can still become the city lord of the gilded city, then he can truly become the highest status person under the head, and it is not impossible to even wait for the opportunity to regain the position of the head in the future. ”
"The head of the house, Leng Ziming's wolf ambition is indeed clearly visible to anyone, in order to stop him, another person who failed to compete for the position of head also came here, and the two are now competing for the position of the lord of this city. Lao Xu said with a smile.
"Well, there are definitely a lot of guards around such people, although our strength is not weak, but it is still too unwise to deal with the Gilt Sect, and we have to find another opportunity. Liu Jingshui groaned.
"Is that all you know?"
Hearing this, Lao Xu shook his head and said: "Also, the battle between the two is now full of turmoil in the city, everyone knows that some of the monks in the city support the greedy wolf, and some support his opponent, the female cultivator named Ji Qiudie is also a monk in the late stage of Jindan, this Ji Qiudie seems to be the daughter of the previous city lord of the gilded city, that is, the daughter of the gilded city lord who was forced to go to the battlefield not long ago, by the way, that city lord is a monk in the infancy stage." ”
Then she is not simply to stop Leng Ziming, but to inherit her father's business. Su Yi said.
Lao Xu nodded, "That's right." ”
"She is obviously the daughter of the city lord, why can't she become the new city lord directly?" Yu Shang tilted his head and wondered.
Lao Xu thought for a while and said: "The position of the gilded city lord is not hereditary, and no city lord can only be decided through a competition. ”
