Shen Xingluo did not go to the Fu Tower with Tang Wenxuan, but took the corresponding number of spirit stones and handed them directly to Tang Wenxuan, and took Xiang'er to the south of the city.

The southern part of the natural city is basically inhabited by mortals or low-level monks, and there is a mixture of people and dragons.

The buildings here are not as neatly planned as other places, but they are disorganized, and it looks as if a house can be built as long as it is an open space, and some houses do not even have a way in and out, but directly set up a ladder to pass through the roof of the house. So the alleys here are very narrow, like a thin sheep's intestine that twists and turns in the clutter of buildings.

Xiang'er was amazed by such a place: "Why is this crowded like this, how can people still live?"

Shen Xingluo said: "Because there was no south of the city when the natural city was originally built, after it was completed, many people knew that there was a town of cultivating immortals here and deliberately relocated, firstly, to avoid wars in the outside world, and secondly, to make a living. Later, more and more people lived in the city, and this place was divided into the city, but this is the only one. Since it was classified as a natural city, the city issued a decree that no people should live within a radius of 100 miles of the natural city. ”

This is also a helpless move, otherwise people from all over the world will drag their families to run here, and there is no need to do other things in the natural city, and they will be responsible for expanding the city wall every day.

I don't know how long I have been turning in it, Xiang'er, who has always thought that her head is bright, can't help but get dizzy, and finally see a river crossing, with a curved arch bridge on the river, and finally see some relatively normal buildings after crossing the bridge.

"This is a wealthy area in the south of the city, and the buildings are better than there. Shen Xingluo said as he took Xiang'er to a house along the river.

As soon as she raised her hand and knocked on the door, a woman from the neighbor's house next door came out to pour water, and saw them stunned at first, and then there was a faint sympathetic look in her eyes: "You are here to find Dr. Zhao, right?"

Shen Xingluo nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"Dr. Zhao went to the doctor, and he didn't come back until about dark. The woman kindly said, "You also came to see him?"

"No, we are old acquaintances with Dr. Zhao, and this time we passed by Natural City to see him. Shen Xingluo said, "Is Grandpa Zhao and Grandma Zhao at home?"

The woman looked at them suspiciously, and the two little girls, the older one was only twelve or thirteen years old, and the younger one was only seven or eight years old. She couldn't figure out how two such young girls could be old acquaintances with Dr. Zhao, an old doctor who was over half a hundred years old.

Listening to their words, they still mean to run errands and pass by the natural city, but such a young girl, who is still so beautiful, has to go out to beg for a living, and this parent is really ruthless.

The sympathy in the woman's eyes was even worse, and she said enthusiastically: "Uncle Zhao went out of the city early in the morning to collect medicine, and Aunt Zhao went to Qianjia Lane to wash people's clothes after lunch, why don't you come to my house first?"

"Auntie's kindness is in our hearts, but we made an appointment with Dr. Zhao, and he will come back immediately. Shen Xingluo smiled and thanked the woman.

The woman said "oh", not reluctantly, pointing to her door and saying: "My husband's surname is Li, you can call me Aunt Li, if Dr. Zhao has not come back, you can come and sit." ”

"Cheng, Aunt Li, you are busy. ”

Aunt Li responded with a smile and went back first, leaving half of the door open.

When Xiang'er saw Aunt Li entering, she smiled and said, "This aunt is really a good person." ”

Shen Xingluo nodded noncommittally.

Xiang'er said again: "Does the second senior brother really live here? Why doesn't he go back to the sect and live here?" She also wanted to say that if the second senior brother went back, the senior sister wouldn't have to be so tired, and she had to take care of everything in the Lichen Palace at a young age, and sometimes she was tired for the senior sister.

"It's a long story. Shen Xingluo smiled.

Li Fei Daojun now has five disciples, and the eldest disciple knows that the real person is a cultivator, and he only knows how to meditate and practice retreat. The third disciple, Ye Junxiu, went out to find an opportunity to break through the golden pill when Shen Xingluo was three years old, and he went for nearly ten years, and there was no news.

And Shen Xingluo and Xiang'er, who just started this year, are still children, so according to common sense, all the affairs of the Lichen Hall should be taken care of by the second senior brother Chunyang Zhenren.

Chunyang Zhenren has indeed taken care of the trivial matters for seven or eight years, and has properly sorted out the top and bottom of the Lichen Palace. However, when Shen Xingluo was eight years old, Zhao Chunyang fought with others, using heavenly thunder, but inadvertently killed a peasant woman working in the field.

"So the second senior brother ransomed his debts. Xiang'er blurted out.

Shen Xingluo tilted his head and thought for a while, and said, "Almost, he originally compensated the peasant woman's family with a large sum of money, as well as a bottle of Qi Nourishing Pill. ”

She remembered that the money was about more than 100,000 yuan, and in the mortal countryside, this huge amount of money could ensure that her children and grandchildren would have food and clothing for ten lifetimes, not to mention that there was also a bottle of Qi Nourishing Pill, which was a rare elixir that even mortal emperors felt.

The big mistake has been made, and Chunyang Zhenren can't pay for her life with her life, so she can only try to compensate her family with these things.

"Senior brother is doing a good job. Xiang'er was puzzled.

The second senior brother is a monk, not to mention that the monk killed an ordinary person unintentionally, even if he deliberately killed any royal relatives and nobles, he didn't need to apologize. The one with a better attitude is to make up some money, and the monk with a proud attitude usually does not even bother to give an explanation. There are really very few people like the second senior brother.

If you are so thoughtful, why are you trying to redeem your debts?

"The bad is in the mouth of the peasant woman's mother-in-law. Shen Xingluo sighed, "This mother-in-law and daughter-in-law problem is really a problem for the ages. ”

The peasant woman's mother-in-law is a very broken mother-in-law, greedy and lazy, but she thinks that her son is destined to marry a princess, and it is not pleasing to the peasant woman. Even if the peasant woman was at home, serving the widow and raising the young aunt, and the children had a pair, she did not get a good word from the mother-in-law.

The husband is sensible and respects his wife very much, but he makes this mother-in-law angry. When the mother-in-law has nothing to do at home, she makes a fuss saying that her son has married a daughter-in-law and forgot his mother, and she is at home, and her neighbors can't look down on it.

The neighbors were talking behind their backs, holding grievances for the peasant woman, and the peasant woman's mother-in-law had no one to care about in the village.

But since the peasant woman died, this mother-in-law has been proud. There is a saying in the mortal world that people will only be struck by lightning if they do things that hurt heaven and reason. The peasant woman was not killed by real thunder, but she was indeed struck to death by lightning.

So this mother-in-law went around preaching that it was the peasant woman who was unfilial and suffered from God's curse, and the family got a huge amount of money, so she acted even more arrogantly, and she could spray anyone who spit on the stars.

"This old woman is so bad. Xiang'er said hatefully, "Why would the second senior brother give money to such a family?"

"Because in the mortal world, when a woman marries, she is her husband's family. Shen Xingluo said.

Xiang'er pouted and said indignantly: "What bullshit, if I were this woman's mother's family, I would definitely knock on the door and smash his house to pieces." ”

"Yo," Shen Xingluo twisted her tender cheeks funny, "I can't imagine that our little Xiang'er is still a little charcoal, but how do you know that the peasant woman's family didn't come to the door to make trouble?"

"Huh?" Xiang'er looked at Shen Xingluo with flashing eyes, full of anticipation.
