Chapter 21: Tiannan City
The blue sky is like a wash, the blue waves are thousands of miles, and suddenly I saw a flash of inspiration in the sky, and a long rainbow galloped from a distance in an instant. There were an old man and a young man sitting on a long boat in Changhong, and it was Wen Lun and Ye Lingchuan who rushed from Jianmen to the Tiannan Mountain Range.
It has been more than a month since the master and apprentice set off from the Sword Gate, and after twisting their bodies that were already a little stiff, Ye Lingchuan stabbed Wen Lun beside him.
"Old man, when will we arrive?"
"Two hours will come. ”
Standing up and moving, rubbing his somewhat sore limbs, Ye Lingchuan looked at Wen Lun with dissatisfaction.
"I said old man, you can't buy a better flying magic weapon, this broken ship doesn't even have a room, and you sit on the board for a month, aren't you uncomfortable?"
Hearing Ye Lingchuan's words, Wen Lun's face couldn't help twitching a few times.
"If I had the money, would I not buy it? ”
Thinking of Wen Lun's situation in the Sword Gate, Ye Lingchuan sighed in his heart and sat down helplessly.
"Shall we go directly into the Tiannan Mountain Range?"
"Of course not, let's go to Tiannan City first. ”
"Tiannan City?"
Looking at Ye Lingchuan's puzzled expression, Wen Lun opened his mouth to explain.
"The Tiannan Mountains are rich in resources and attract a large number of monks. In order to facilitate the rest and exchange of resources, a small town was gradually formed in the Tiannan Mountains, and after so many years of development, it has now become the most popular place in the entire Tiannan Mountains. We went there to rest for a few days and then we went into the Tiannan Mountains. ”
Ye Lingchuan nodded, closed his eyes and began to meditate.
Two hours passed in a flash, and when it was noon, Wen Lun's eyes, who had been looking ahead, suddenly lit up.
"It's here. ”
Ye Lingchuan heard Wen Lun's voice and hurriedly opened his eyes, and a majestic city appeared in front of him.
The city was completely black, and the surrounding walls were towering, and it seemed that countless runes were carved on every piece of masonry, making the city walls seem to form a vast formation. And above the formation, there is even a suppressive force, so that the monks who must have cultivated below are forbidden to fly here.
The city is also huge enough to accommodate a million people, and the four gates are full of pedestrians coming and going at this time, which is extremely lively. And on the wall of this city, there are three big characters of dragons flying and phoenixes dancing.
Tiannan City.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Ye Lingchuan couldn't help but take a deep breath. Since he woke up, everything he has seen has been limited to the Sword Gate, and this is the first time he has seen a city as magnificent as this.
Seeing Ye Lingchuan's surprised look, Wen Lun shook his head with a smile, controlled the flying boat to land at a distance from Tiannan City, put away the flying boat, and walked towards Tiannan City with Ye Lingchuan.
Looking at the long queue of people at the city gate, Ye Lingchuan sighed, and when he was about to stand at the back of the line, Wen Lun grabbed him, bypassed the crowd and walked directly towards the city gate.
There were two men in black standing at the city gate, collecting spirit stones from people entering the city from time to time, and then handing them back a token. When he saw Wen Lun walking towards him, the man in black on the left had a cold face, and he was about to say something, when suddenly a disc around his waist suddenly lit up, and the man in black changed his complexion, and hurriedly showed a respectful look to greet him.
"I've seen my seniors, but my seniors are going to enter the city?"
"That's right, give the old man two tokens. ”
"Of course, it's no problem for seniors to cultivate Dan, but he ......" Looking at Ye Lingchuan behind Wen Lun, the man in black looked a little hesitant.
"What's the matter, can't the old man's disciples bring it in?" Wen Lun frowned, and a breath of knot slowly emanated from his body.
"No, you can... Yes, this is a token, please take it. A trace of cold sweat flowed from the forehead of the man in black, and he hurriedly took out the two-sided token and handed it to Wen Lun.
Wen Lun took the token, snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, and walked towards the city. Ye Lingchuan, who was following behind Wen Lun, felt a little in a trance, and the scene that had just happened made him feel extremely unreal. Looking at the expression on Ye Lingchuan's face, Wen Lun couldn't help but have a look of pride on his face.
"Why, I didn't expect your master and I to have such treatment?"
Hearing Wen Lun's transmission, Ye Lingchuan hurriedly nodded.
"The Sword Gate knows that my combat power is low, but the outside doesn't know. On this day, the city lord of Nancheng is only a primordial infant, and it is enough to get attention in this city. I've been walking outside for so many years, and I've never played with this hand. ”
Looking at Wen Lun, who had a smug face, but only dared to speak with a voice, Ye Lingchuan felt that his master was not easy to say, but his courage was first-class.
The moment Ye Lingchuan stepped into the city, an aura that was completely different from outside the city suddenly rushed to his face. Everything in front of him gave Ye Lingchuan only one word to describe it.
Tough!
The buildings in the Sword Gate are often carefully carved and full of immortal atmosphere, while the houses in Tiannan City are extremely rough, and most of the buildings are made of bricks and stones. The pedestrians walking on the road revealed a fierce meaning in their eyes, and even many of them had a trace of evil spirit.
Ye Lingchuan only felt that the hairs on his body stood up slightly, and his breathing became a little short. Seeing Ye Lingchuan's appearance, Wen Lun had no surprise on his face.
"Every monk here has entered the Tiannan Mountains, some have come back alive, and some have stayed there forever. Here, there is no need to be gorgeous, there is no need to be exquisite, there is only one iron law inherited by Tiannan City for thousands of years. That is, "
"Live!"
Seeing that Ye Lingchuan's breath was stagnant, with a look of horror on his face, Wen Lun was very satisfied with the effect of his words. Just as he was about to continue, Ye Lingchuan's body beside him shook suddenly, and he raised his head to look at Wen Lun, his face full of seriousness.
"Old man, let's go back, such a dangerous place, follow you, I don't think there is much chance of survival. ”
Wen Lun, who originally had a smug face, couldn't help but stiffen, and the corners of his mouth twitched a little. After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't think of how to refute Ye Lingchuan, so he had to snort and walk forward. Looking at Wen Lun like this, Ye Lingchuan sighed secretly in his heart, feeling that his sigh today was about to catch up with the previous year.
Not long after, Wen Lun took Ye Lingchuan to an inn. After revealing the identity of Yudan, the store respectfully gave a half-price discount. Looking at Wen Lun, who was silent on his face, but actually pinched the spirit stone, his fingers were a little pale, and Ye Lingchuan sighed even more in his heart.
After simply cleaning up the room, Wen Lun took Ye Lingchuan to the street to prepare to purchase some necessary things. Taking Ye Lingchuan around the street, Wen Lun randomly picked a shop and walked in.
A fellow in the shop was dozing listlessly, and when Wen Lun walked into the shop, a small clock on the shop table suddenly shook and rang a bell. Hearing this bell, the man shuddered, opened his eyes and looked at Wen Lun, and his face was replaced by a flattering smile.
"Hello senior, what do you want?"
Wen Lun nodded, did not speak, and directly threw out a jade slip.
"Prepare this for me. ”
The guy hurriedly took the jade slip, swept his senses, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Senior, don't worry, these things are available in small shops, you wait a while. ”
After serving tea to Wen Lun, the guy hurriedly walked to the back of the store to prepare the items.
Listening to the conversation between Wen Lun and his buddy, Ye Lingchuan didn't pay attention to it, and walked around the store boredly. The shop Wen Lun chose was not a big store in the first place, and the items in the store were not unusual. Ye Lingchuan casually glanced at the shelves, and was about to turn around and leave. But just as he turned around, the chaotic-colored light in his mind suddenly jumped.
Ye Lingchuan's heart moved, and he turned to look at the shelves. But after looking around, the light in my mind didn't move. Ye Lingchuan thought for a while, stepped forward and stretched out his hand and began to touch the items on the shelf. One by one, until he touched a stone, the light in his mind beat again.
Picking up the stone gently, Ye Lingchuan couldn't help but feel a little excited. After cultivating the Mixed Yuan Sword Technique for so long, there was nothing that could cause the movement of the light cluster in his mind. Looking at the gray-white stone in his hand, Ye Lingchuan turned to look at Wen Lun suddenly.
"Old man, I want this stone!"
Wen Lun, who was originally sitting on a chair and pretending to be a master with his eyes closed, couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and took the stone in his hand with a move with his right hand. After carefully examining his eyes, he poured spiritual power into it, and then used his divine sense to investigate. The expression on Wen Lun's face was a little puzzled.
"This thing, without aura, I don't see any use. ”
"How much, how much I want!"
Wen Lun frowned slightly, he knew that Ye Lingchuan would not make this request for no reason. At this moment, the guy from the store happened to come out, holding a storage bag in his hand.
"Senior, everything you want is ready, please take a look. ”
Wen Lun's consciousness swept away, nodded slightly, and took out the stone in his hand.
"What is this?"
Looking at the stone in Wen Lun's hand, the guy was slightly stunned, thought for a while, and said "oh" lightly, and opened his mouth to explain.
"This thing is a stone that was collected some time ago, and after inspection, it was found that this thing has no use at all, so I threw it here, and I forgot that there was such a thing after a long time. ”
"How much is this, and how can it be sold?" Ye Lingchuan stepped forward and asked.
"Uh..." glanced at Ye Lingchuan, and seeing that Wen Lun didn't speak, the guy thought about it and said.
"This thing is not worth much, it is only seven or eight yuan in total, if you like it, I will give it to you. ”
Ye Lingchuan nodded and did not speak again.
After the guy put all the gray and white stones in the store into the storage bag, Wen Lun paid the spirit stones, and the two walked out of the store.
Looking at the two people walking away, the man's eyes flashed, and he understood that this stone must have a purpose that he didn't know. But as soon as he thought of the old man's cultivation, the man sighed, gave up the thought in his heart, and dozed off again with his head propped up.
After returning to the inn, Ye Lingchuan hurriedly took out the stone from the storage bag and played with it in his hand, his eyes full of excitement.
"What's the use of this thing?" Wen Lun asked, raising an eyebrow.
"I don't know. ”
Looking at Wen Lun, Ye Lingchuan's eyes flashed with a gleam.
"But I know that it can help me cultivate the Mixed Yuan Sword Technique!"
