Chapter 156: State City
Finally, after a moment of stalemate, Pei Susu opened her seductive red lips again in Zhao Jiuge's puzzled look and said angrily, "Now that you know the whereabouts of the Cold Flame Flower, do you think this is the end?" Not to mention how much cost and financial resources it takes to bid for the Cold Flame Flower, and even the barter may be required, this is only a one-sided reason, and more importantly, there is also pressure from those advanced monks, this Cold Flame Flower is used by Wang Baojun to refine the pill for his apprentice, he is also bound to win, even you can't handle him, let alone the pressure from other monks, you also know how many people rush to this rare medicinal material like the Cold Flame Flower, maybe you will say that the auction is fair, compared to who has the financial resources, and doesn't care about these external factors, then you think you can do it with tens of thousands of spirit stones?”
Pei Susu said one after another, which made Zhao Jiuge a little speechless, and then a little silent, Pei Susu naturally said that it was not wrong, the person who can auction the Cold Flame Flower is naturally either rich or expensive, otherwise he would not have the idea of the Cold Flame Flower, even if he does not have the strength of Wang Baojun, he will have a good identity, what does he rely on to compete with others Cold Flame Flower, after all, this Cold Flame Flower is not in stock even with the inventory of Xuantian Sword Gate, which can be seen how precious it is.
"Okay, everything is fate, let it be, it should be that you can't run away, it's not that you can't force it to come, anyway, let's go to that Luoyang City to see, when the time comes, one step is one step, and there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain." ”
Seeing that Zhao Jiuge was a little silent, Sanwu hurriedly said out loud, and while stepping forward to speak, he turned the Buddha bead in his hand, as if when there was nothing to do, the Buddha bead did not leave Sanwu's hand.
Zhao Jiuge, who was originally a little silent and gloomy, suddenly smiled, his faint smile was full of warmth, and Sanwu's words suddenly opened Zhao Jiuge's heart knot, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and he has come all the way, isn't it all like this, when he first stepped on the spiritual road, he didn't have nothing, and he didn't understand anything, in the past few years, he didn't rely on the spirit of daring to fight and dare to do everything he has now, anyway, the way of cultivation is nothing more than fighting with the sky, fighting with people, it's a big deal to be obtained by others, the cold flame flower is looking for it again, when did he become so timid!
"Okay, let's set off and head to Luoyang City!" Thinking about this, Zhao Jiuge suddenly recovered his fighting spirit as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.
"you, my mother has never fought uncertain battles, and you are a little monk, and now you like to speak a lot of Zen words more and more. ”
Pei Susu said angrily, glared at Sanwu at the same time, and the frightened Sanwu suddenly shrunk his neck, Sanwutian was not afraid, and he was afraid of Pei Susu for some reason.
"Could it be that you have any ideas?" Zhao Jiuge's eyes lit up, staring at Pei Susu, with a bit of expectation in his eyes, he knew that Pei Susu had always been resourceful, so there must be some way.
Pei Susu put his hands behind his back, and there was a slight smug look on his stunning face, and then walked a few steps back and forth in front of Zhao Jiuge, and suddenly a mysterious smile appeared, and then said softly, "The mountain people have their own clever plans, so you don't care about it when the time comes, but as for whether it can be done, you have to see if the Heavenly Gang can help you." ”
Seeing this, Zhao Jiuge had no choice but to endure the curiosity in his heart, anyway, he understood that what Pei Susu didn't want to say, even if she killed her, she wouldn't say it, so Zhao Jiuge consciously didn't ask more, just like Pei Susu's identity, Pei Susu didn't want to say, and Zhao Jiuge never took the initiative to ask, but what Zhao Jiuge didn't know was that about Pei Susu's identity, he took the initiative to mention it after going to Zhao Jiuge, Pei Susu would definitely tell him honestly, but not saying it now is not because he wants to deliberately hide it, but because the time has not come and he doesn't know how to speak。
The weather in July is already very hot, and even in the morning, you can already feel the scorching sun emitting a dazzling light.
Although for the monks, the four seasons are like spring, and the temperature does not affect them in the slightest, unlike ordinary people who are afraid of cold and heat, but under this scorching sun, their inner mood is affected by this environment, and they become a little irritable.
Bidding farewell to Wang Baojun's master and apprentice, Zhao Jiuge and the three of them immediately hurried and crossed the second half of Lei Mountain, the goal was to go to Luoyang City, the state capital of Leizhou, no matter what the situation, since they knew the whereabouts of the Cold Flame Flower that they had been looking for, then they must have to see it, and since Pei Susu said that there might be a way, then Zhao Jiuge believed her, and in his heart he was still very eager to get the Cold Flame Flower.
Due to the hurry, the three of them relied on their feet to complete the second half of the Lei Mountain in less than two days, anyway, there was still enough time for the auction in Luoyang City, so after leaving the very depressing environment of the Lei Mountain, the three of them walked slowly on the official road, you must know that Wang Baojun is still looking for some medicine for his apprentice in Lei Mountain, so the auction will naturally have a while.
Anyway, Luoyang City, the state capital of Leizhou, is close to the west of the entire Leizhou, if the three of them want to, they will be able to cross Leizhou with the sword in less than two days, but then they will lose the meaning of experience, and they will not be able to appreciate the scenery of Leizhou.
At this moment, the three of them are walking in a plain area, and after leaving the Thunder Mountain, there is an unobstructed flat bottom, and there is no tall mountain to block the way.
The dry weather has caused the dirt on the official road to crack apart, and the color has turned pale yellow, and the surrounding crops or plants are motionless in this environment without a trace of fresh wind, just like those who occasionally pass by the crops are more lazy, after all, ordinary people do not like to move in this hot environment.
Even if Zhao Jiuge and the three of them are monks, they have some big complaints in this weather, except that Zhao Jiuge was born poor and accustomed to this kind of harsh environment, the rest of Pei Susu and Sanwuye are more or less unbearable, Sanwu is at most just a small face full of bitterness, and Pei Susu's stunning face, the willow eyebrows have been wrinkled strongly, if it weren't for a field everywhere, in the plain area, without any buildings and shady places, I'm afraid Pei Susu would have been playing tricks a long time ago.
Looking at the reluctant appearance of the two, Zhao Jiuge just smiled faintly, and didn't say anything, these are nothing to him, no matter how hard the days are, he has experienced them, not to mention these.
"Hmph, wood, this is why I am willing to accompany you through thick and thin, otherwise she will be the Lin Panruo you are thinking about, she can walk under the scorching sun with you as well as I do. If it weren't for the sake of accompanying you, I would have stayed at home a long time ago, and I wouldn't have been affected by the weather when I was in the magic circle, eating the spiritual fruit that relieved the heat. ”
The weather was already a little stuffy, and the three of them had been walking silently and had not spoken, this somewhat depressing atmosphere suddenly made Pei Susu a little unbearable, and complained, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became.
As soon as he heard Pei Susu's voice, Sanwu's mood was inexplicable, and he was a little hot in his heart, but when he heard those words, Sanwu looked at Zhao Jiuge with some schadenfreude, and what he liked most was to watch Zhao Jiuge eat deflated and be cleaned up by Pei Susu.
Originally, Miss Pei was in a bad mood at this moment because of the hot weather, and the topic at this moment led to Lin Panruo's body, so Zhao Jiuge was probably not able to answer at this time. And Sanwu has long had a guess about Pei Susu's identity, since she is a young lady like Pei Susu can accompany Zhao Jiuge to endure some hardships, so what is it for herself? So Sanwu's heart calmed down in an instant, pursed his lips and smiled and watched how Zhao Jiuge appeased Miss Pei.
Where did Zhao Jiuge dare to talk back to Pei Susu who was angry at this moment, and immediately a flattering smile appeared on his face, and he said to Pei Susu, "That's, other women naturally can't compare with you, let's hold on for a while, since there are crops and a field on both sides of this neighborhood, then there must be a village nearby, and we will have a good rest when the time comes." ”
Pei Suqiong snorted lightly, expressing her dissatisfaction with Zhao Jiuge, but she didn't continue to say anything, since Zhao Jiuge was so obedient to her, even if the smile was a little exaggerated, but she couldn't say anything more, just a few words of conversation, suddenly like a gust of wind, the irritability in her heart just now was diluted.
"Look, there's a pergola up ahead!"
When Zhao Jiuge and Pei Susu were talking, Sanwu, who was walking behind, immediately saw a thatched pergola not far in front.
The pergola is not big, it is estimated that it is about a dozen square meters, three sides are covered by dry yellow grass on three sides, only one side is placed with a rectangular, and some shabby wooden table, there is a person sleeping faintly on the table, but the distance is a few hundred meters, the specific see is not very clear, this kind of pergola is generally mostly built by nearby croppers, and it is a temporary rest in summer, so it is relatively simple. Most of them are made of a few tree trunks and a pile of dead grass.
Most of the three of them don't look at this kind of pergola with a shabby environment on weekdays, but at this moment, in this hot environment, and there is no shady place, suddenly seeing a pergola is tantamount to seeing a life-saving straw in the water, and the excitement is self-evident.
Although the monk's physical strength is far from being comparable to ordinary people, he is not afraid of the cold and heat, and it must be the premise of stimulating the spiritual power, at this moment, the soles of the three of them can feel that the soil on the ground is a little hot, and there is a fire in the throat, even the saliva has become scarce, but the only one has become sticky.
Hearing Sanwu's words, Pei Susu looked in the direction of the front, a pair of beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, a little bright, and shouted excitedly, "There is finally a shady place, let's go hide and take a rest by the way." ”
After Pei Susu finished speaking, he accelerated suddenly, and walked briskly towards the pergola not far ahead, Zhao Jiuge and Sanwu behind him were a little helpless when they saw this, so they had to hurriedly follow the brisk walk.
