Although it is late autumn, the irises in Beiliang City are blooming just right.

The Dugu clan has lived here for generations, and is the largest clan in the three states of the Northland, and is known as the Optimus Pillar Stone of the Great Xia Northland.

Even in the entire Southern Regions, the Dugu clan is also a clan that can be ranked in the top ten.

In the past, the ancestor Dugu Dragon City, following the founding saint emperor of the early Xia Dynasty, chased the world, sealed the word side by side, passed down from generation to generation, and was known as the pinnacle of Kyushu swordsmanship.

The years have passed, since the beginning of the ancestor Dugu Dragon City, the Dugu clan is still long-lasting until today.

On the contrary, it has become more and more prosperous.

If it is said that there are many places in this world where there are sword immortals.

From ancient times to the present, throughout the five domains of Kyushu, many sects have produced peerless figures who have ascended to immortality with swords.

Such as the Nanling Sword Valley, such as the North Qin Jiantuo Mountain, such as the West Domain Sword Villa......

But if you want to say that you can produce sword demons, there is only one place like the Dugu clan in Beiliang City.

It's just because there is a small world hidden in the Dugu clan in Beiliang City, and hundreds of thousands of swords are buried, which is a sword mound.

Among them, there has never been a shortage of famous swords, and there are no less than 100 of them buried on the "Kyushu Famous Sword List" alone.

According to legend, Chengying, who ranked tenth, and Longyuan, who ranked fifth, were both kept here by their former owners, hoping that the destined person could let them be born again.

As for whether there will be an even more amazing sword hidden deep in it, no one can know.

There are many divine swords that are by no means inferior to the top ten on the "Kyushu Famous Sword List", and they are not famous because of the relationship between their former sword masters.

The owners of these swords are either unborn immortal powerhouses, or some down-and-out rangers who have entered the treasure mountain and don't know it.

In short, either they disdain to be famous in the world, or they are not capable of becoming famous in the world, so that the sword in their hands has not been famous in the world.

At least, the Dark Sword held in the hands of the Jiang family on the third night had never been known before it was born.

But today, who dares to make a sword can say that it is better than the ink-colored heavy sword in Jiang Ye's hand.

As the strange man 'Mr. Gu Long' who shattered the void ten thousand years ago said, 'Whether a good sword can be used as an ancient sword and become a famous sword usually depends on who uses it. The sword can win its master, the sword wins, the sword can not get its master, the sword is stubborn, the sword is destroyed, and the sword sinks, neither can it leave its name in the ages, nor can it protect its body. ’

It's just such an ancient sword that has not become a famous sword, and there are many hidden swords in the sword mound of the Dugu clan that is independent of Kyushu.

It is precisely because of this that Dugu Sword Shrine has become one of the five holy places in the world of Kyushu Sword Dao.

The southern tomb hides the sword immortal, and the northern cool contains the sword demon.

The two clans that used swords in the south and north of the Great Xia Dynasty monopolized the two holy places in the sword vein of Kyushu.

It is precisely because of this that in the past thousand years, more than half of the sword vein supremes who have cultivated the body of a sword immortal have come from the Southern Regions.

In this thousand-year-old world, there were thirty-three immortal sword immortals in Kyushu, and thirteen in the other four domains.

One region in the Southern Regions, with twenty people exclusively.

In addition to the fact that two of them are from different sects, the eighteen sword immortals are all from the Fang family of Nanling Sword Valley and the Dugu clan of Beiliang.

Nanling is not counting the old ancestor of the Fang family who is destined to be promoted to immortal in this life, and there are seven sword immortals who have risen in the daytime.

The Dugu clan of Beiliang, who shattered the void with the iron sword in his hand, has a total of eleven people in a thousand years.

In this way, the heritage of the Dugu family can be seen.

Beiliang City, the largest city in the three states of the Southern Regions and the North, is 3,000 miles from north to south, with a population of 17 million, and 8 million people use swords.

To see the prosperity of a city, the first thing to look at is the number of taverns and inns, and the second is to see how many green buildings and red halls there are.

For example, there are only three famous taverns in Jincheng, Shuzhou, and there are only two green buildings, which is already the most prosperous city in the border area.

As the most prosperous city in the northern region of the Great Xia Dynasty in the Southern Regions, Beiliang City can be compared to the Jin City, which can be compared to the heavens and the earth.

Not to mention that there are 270 famous restaurants, and the number of green buildings alone is more than all the cities in the entire border area combined, and there are no less than 1,000 in the open and in the dark.

Among them, the star picking building to which the Beiliang Dugu clan belongs is the most famous.

Picking the star building, known for its elegance in the north.

How many years has the Great Xia Dynasty existed, how many years has the Star Picking Tower been standing.

The so-called back to the big tree is good to enjoy the shade, there is such a big gold-lettered signboard of the Dugu family, naturally few people dare to make trouble.

Even the girls here are a little more arrogant than those ordinary fireworks Willow Alley.

On weekdays, all the people who receive them are high-rollers, or they are the benefactors of the powerful side of the temple.

According to legend, the largest gold cave in Beiliang City was established by Dugu Dragon City, the first ancestor of the Iron Sword Dugu clan, and even the first Holy Emperor 'Jiang Shennong', who created the prosperous era of Great Xia in the Southern Regions, was a frequent visitor here before his career.

It was because of this relationship that the two later joined hands to lay down the huge mountains and rivers of the Southern Regions.

There is also a legend that more than 2,000 years ago, there was a mortal immortal who lingered here, and the peerless Oiran 'Su Xiaoxiao', who was able to rank seventh on the "Kyushu Rouge List" at that time, performed a "Concentric Song" that has been sung by later generations for thousands of years.

To this day, there is still a painting and calligraphy several feet high hanging in the Star Picking Building, which is to tell the story to future generations.

Whether it's true or not, the name of the Star Picking Tower has endured for thousands of years.

Today, a carriage slowly drove into Beiliang City and went straight to the star-picking tower.

It was none other than Jiang Xiaoman who was driving the car.

traveled all the way, and finally arrived in Beiliang City.

The streets were bustling with pedestrians, men, women, and children, most of whom wore long and short swords, either sharp or simple, behind their backs or on their waists.

This shows the richness of the Northern Liang martial arts wind and the prosperity of the sword style.

"Hey, Jiang Xiaoworm, this is Beiliang City!" Ji Xiaoyue lifted the curtain and poked her head out of the carriage, looked around curiously, and rested her chin on the young man's shoulder and said happily: "It's really lively! It's even more lively than Fancheng!"

Rubbing the little girl's head, Jiang Xiaoman couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the wooden sword on the street and said with a chuckle: "That's natural, you are the first city in the Northland for nothing?"

"I hate it, don't rub my head!" Ji Xiaoyue pouted and shook her head, then giggled again, and said, "Okay, I'll go to the Qinglou to sell that pervert surnamed Yao later, you are not allowed to leave me and Miss Xiao alone." ”

Speaking of the Qinglou, Miss Xiao, who was sitting in the carriage with her knees hugged, couldn't help blushing, and whispered cowardly: "Little Moon, in fact, you don't need to take me." ”

Ji Xiaoyue retracted her head, looked at Xiao Ying's big eyes and was about to squint together, and said, "No, we are companions!

Xiao Ying rubbed her forehead helplessly and whispered, "But...... But wouldn't it be a little inappropriate for the girl's family to go to a place like that?"

She already has a deep understanding of the fierceness of Ji Xiaoyue's girl.

In addition to this Nizi, where would there be a girl with so many strange pills.

There are all kinds of incense and drugs, even the real flower thief, I'm afraid that Ji Xiaoyue is not so well prepared.

She looked at the delicate and playful little girl in front of her, sighed for no reason, and said softly: "Little Moon, you and Jiang Gongzi have learned badly." ”

"Yes, yes, yes! It's Jiang Xiaoworm who taught me badly, I'm so innocent, I blame him!" Ji Xiaoyue blinked her big eyes, and she couldn't help but nod with a smile.

The little girl's voice was very loud, and she couldn't help but make Jiang Xiaoman outside the carriage pout, feeling that Ji Xiaoyue, a dead girl, was really good at serious nonsense.

Miss Xiao simply doesn't know, can she not know?

At the beginning in Fancheng, who took the incense to stun Xuan Zhiqiu's hot-tempered girl?

Who coaxed Third Brother Wei and his gang of Hongchen and the swordsmen to go around?

Even the idea of selling Yao Qi to the Qinglou was put forward by this dead girl.

Simplicity?

Who really believes Ji Xiaoyue's words, I'm afraid that I will be sold in the end and still count the money for the little girl!

The carriage entered the city and traveled along the wide street where dozens of rides could be ridden and ridden all the way, until finally it came to a slow stop in front of the majestic plaque with the three large characters of 'Star Picking Tower' hanging high.

It's noon,

Despite this, there is still a lot of traffic in front of the Star Picking Tower.

As far as the eye can see, on both sides of the street, not to mention the dozens of official sedan chairs decorated or elegant or extravagant, there are no less than 100 five-flowered horses worth thousands of gold alone.

Many of the horsemen who drive the car and the sedan chair who carry the sedan chair have their temples bulging and are well cultivated.

A glimpse of the whole leopard, Jiang Xiaoman looked at the many sedan chair men and grooms who were either squatting or standing against the wall waiting for their masters outside the Star Picking Tower, and couldn't help but secretly speak, there are so many people, Xiuwei can't even figure it out now.

It can be seen that the guests who come to this star tower have an extraordinary status.

found a vacant seat, slowly stopped the carriage, and the incomparably clever welcome boy hurriedly trotted all the way up to help.

Seeing that the young man was wearing an ancient sword with an ancient sword at his waist and carrying a gun magazine, although the clothes on his body were stained with some dust because of the hurry, it was not difficult to judge that the net worth of this boy in a white robe must be good.

Besides, he recognized that among the five mounts that pulled the cart, except for the gray and white little donkey who couldn't recognize the calendar, the other four horses were all extraordinary, and they were all famous spirit horses on the "Kyushu Spirit Horse List".

The little minister with red lips and white teeth bent over, and said with a smile on his face: "Yo, son, you are the first time to come to our Beiliangcheng, right?

Before Jiang Xiaoman could speak, Ji Xiaoyue poked her head out first, looked at the little minister and said fairly: "Don't drink, let's drink tea!"

The welcoming little minister was stunned, and the two girls who slowly walked out of the carriage immediately nodded and smiled: "Okay!"

Ji Xiaoyue was much calmer than Jiang Xiaoman, who couldn't help blushing at this time, and said "um" lightly, took out a gold ingot from his arms and threw it into the hand of the little minister, and said with a smile: "I will reward you." ”

Naturally, this ingot of gold will not be the little girl's own, and all the finances taken from Yao Qi's unlucky bastard are kept by Ji Xiaoyue.

Now the little girl is rich, and a gold ingot is nothing.

"Thank you, Miss Reward!" Holding the golden ingot in both hands, the little minister couldn't help but smile.

He didn't seem to be surprised to lead the two girls to visit the Qinglou, and calmly led the three of them in front of him to slowly walk towards the hundred-foot-high star-picking building, and when he entered the building, he commanded to the left and right: "Choose a good private room, this son and the two young ladies want to drink tea,"

"Yes. The guys in the Star Picking Building were not surprised, but they also knew the rules, and several of the guys lowered their heads very low, didn't look up at the two girls, and bowed down and led the three upstairs.

When the Star Picking Tower was first built, there were only seven floors, but with the expansion of the successive rulers, it is now 33 floors high, implying that there are 33 floors of heaven above the nine heavens.

The star-picking building is a hundred feet high, and the top floor of the thirty-third floor is even more sky-high.

If it is said that the benefactors are allowed to climb the stairs and go up the floor, it is naturally unrealistic.

Therefore, the Star Picking Building invited the Mo family in the 'Thirty-six Families' in Kyushu to cast dozens of sets of mechanical stairs in the building.

As long as one stands up, he can automatically be dragged by the wooden ladder to any floor, and it only takes a few breaths from the hall on the first floor to the 'Genting Heavenly Palace' on the thirty-third floor.

Standing in the mechanical staircase, the three of them felt a roar, and then the floor under their feet slowly rose straight with them, and they couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

The technique of the Mo family's mechanism, Kyushu is famous, but it is also quite miraculous.

With a slight jolt under his feet, the mechanical staircase finally came to a slow stop on the floor engraved with the number thirty-three.

The three of them walked down the stairs, only to find that there was a cloud of mist outside the windows on both sides, as if they were really in the heavenly palace.

Ji Xiaoyue jumped up and down with her hands behind her back, looked at Jiang Xiaoman and Miss Xiao happily and said, "Three thousand taels of silver, no white flowers!"

......

At this moment, the vast courtyard in Beiliang City covers an area of nearly 1,000 acres.

In front of a muddy pond, an old man dressed in an inky coat stood quietly.

The old man seemed to be in a good mood, humming a little song in his mouth, and throwing some fish food in his hand in the pond at will.

"Father!"

A majestic voice sounded behind the old man, and ripples rippled in the void.

Then a middle-aged man with a somewhat strong and burly body and an iron sword on his back tore through the void and walked out, bowing down and standing behind the old man.

The old man didn't turn around, and casually threw all the remaining fish food in his hand into the pond, then clapped his hands and asked with a chuckle: "I heard that Xiao Man'er has arrived in Beiliang City today? Where have you gone now?"

The middle-aged man's face was a little embarrassed, and he paused before he spoke: "Xiao Man'er has indeed entered the city, and he is still leading two girls, but he is just ......."

"Two girls?" The old man was stunned, then stroked his beard with a smile, and said with satisfaction: "This kid is not very old, and the means of coaxing the girl can be as good as Yao'er's, but what?"

Coughing lightly, the middle-aged man said slowly: "It's just that as soon as this kid entered the city, he led the two girls to the Star Picking Tower......

"What?!"
