Chapter 29: The Capital City of Xiqi

After a few days in the Crane Immortal Temple, Zi Ning and Huan Ling concentrated on studying the method of Tu Na cultivation, and absorbed the spiritual energy in the valley in the morning and evening. There are countless spirit stones and spirit crystals in Yuehengtang, and they have as many as they want.

Huanling's fire spirit root made rapid progress, and after taking Kunlun's foundation-building condensing elixir, Yue Hengtang ordered Qi Song to learn from her all day long, and soon refined a dantian true qi.

As long as you lay a solid foundation, you can break through the first-order skill in less than a year and a half.

Zi Ning's cultivation encountered difficulties, Xuannu was a Wuji Spirit Root, and the cultivation level of the Immortal Dao Realm was ineffective for her, so she didn't know the depth of her skills after practicing for ten days, and she couldn't figure out what the situation was.

Yue Hengtang knew that cultivation should not be rushed, so he first taught her some methods of condensing the true qi of the dantian, using mental power to compress a true qi mass, and fighting out to defend herself when she was in danger, similar to the Mixed Yuan Thunderbolt, it is also suitable for attack and defense.

Unable to figure out the level of his own skills, Zi Ning's heart was troubled and anxious, and she felt powerless to condense her true qi. After repeated cultivation many times, the fastest could only gather a true qi mass the size of a rice ball in the half-pillar incense.

Such a small thunderbolt has very limited power.

Zi Ning was depressed, but Yue Hengtang was patient and took the trouble to guide her, and finally one by one the small air masses that emitted white light shot out, bombarded the rocks on the hills, and exploded into several sections.

This trick uses the real qi mass to hit people, and Zi Ning took a domineering name - "Invincible Flashbang".

After practicing the "invincible flash bomb" for a few days, it has been a little successful, and Yue Hengtang asked her to take out the exquisite feather fan, hold the handle of the fan in one hand, wave and dance, like a magic weapon of the fairy, changeable, and amazingly powerful.

Zi Ning couldn't help but stick out her tongue, she thought that this feather fan was used to fan the wind and pretend to be handsome, and she used the fan to drive away the sparrows before, which was really tyrannical.

The exquisite feather fan is a magic weapon of Penglai immortal, which is made of chalcedony essence and Wancai Hua Aya, which can detoxify and destroy evil, transform the size, and promote the bursts of the feather fan with true qi, which can make people fall asleep for three days without waking up.

Hearing that the Linglong Feather Fan had so many powerful uses, Zi Ning was excited, clapped his hands and smiled: "Great, when I meet a bad guy in the future, I will fan him with a fan to make him fall asleep and not wake up." ”

Yue Hengtang said with a smile: "Your current strength is not yet able to deal with cultivators above the third order. If you urge the Linglong Feather Fan, at most it will make mortals fall asleep. ”

No matter how powerful a magic weapon is, it also depends on whether the person using the magic weapon can control it. The Linglong Feather Fan is an artifact in the hands of the Absolute Emperor, and in the hands of Zi Ning, it can probably only fan the wind.

Zi Ning's eyes showed a look of disappointment, and she flattened her mouth and said, "My cultivation is so slow, when will I get the Xuannu inheritance?"

She was anxious, if she didn't rise to the level of cultivation, she would never be able to enter the Kunlun Sect. Year after year, the red face is easy to age, the green silk turns white, and when she becomes a goddess, the tenth generation of grandsons of Yue Hengtang can make soy sauce!

Yue Hengtang smiled slightly, "When you have practiced the fan technique and can fly with the fan, we will go to Danxue Mountain to find the white phoenix, only the white phoenix knows the inheritance of the Xuannu." At this time, Zining couldn't fly, and it was very inconvenient to walk on the road alone.

The phoenixes in the world are all conceived from the phoenix platform of Danxue Mountain. The white phoenix has only a female body, and it is a unique treasure hunting spirit bird from all over the world, and it only follows the Xuannu throughout its life. Xuannu and Bai Feng have been with each other for every life, and they are inseparable from the weighing scales.

"If the Xuannu does not come out, the white phoenix will be destroyed, and the Xuannu will be reborn, and the white phoenix will accompany her. "If Zi Ning wants to find the inheritance of the Xuannu, she must have a white phoenix to guide her.

After Yue Hengtang finished speaking, he immediately raised his sleeves and waved upward, hitting a halo of Dao tricks, and the exquisite feather fan "swooped" and spread out flat, turning into a pair of wings that were about to fly. He shouted: "The royal fan flies." Sending Zi Ning to the feather fan, the exquisite feather fan "whirred" swept the wind and flew up in the air.

"Ahh

Yue Hengtang waved his arm to catch up, his fingers cast a trick, and lightly touched the feather fan, and the exquisite feather fan suddenly turned into the size of a felt carpet, holding Zining steadily.

Zi Ning was slightly calm, and saw the moon hengtang flying on her side, piercing the clouds and stepping on the fog, the instrument was extraordinary, extremely chic, and she was lying on the feather fan with her ass cocked, her posture was not elegant at all, it was really ugly.

As soon as his face turned red, he immediately turned over and sat up, adjusted an elegant posture, and sat cross-legged on the fan surface. Calm and concentrated, my heart was as calm as a mirror, only to see the floating clouds flying past me, the white mist was swirling, and the sun shot out a ray of light on the clouds, like churning colored waves rolling up.

Yue Hengtang's figure flashed "whoosh", his feet were slightly dotted, and he fell lightly on the front end of the Linglong feather fan.

With his hands behind his back, he stood upright, wearing a white gold-inlaid gauze brocade robe dancing in the wind, with ribbons flying on his crown, his long hair flowing, his eyes were like stars, and he looked at Zi Ning with a smile.

Zi Ning also squinted his eyes and smiled, the light of his eyes swayed his white clothes fluttering, and there was a very unreal dreamy feeling.

Although the speed of the fan is fast, it seems that there is no strong resistance of the wind, her hair is slightly fluttering, her face is like a delicate flower shining on the water, she is very comfortable to revel in the feeling of the light wind and clouds, and there is an urge to sing a song.

immediately searched the intestines and scraped the stomach, rummaging through the memory to find the appropriate songs, but unfortunately I didn't remember the lyrics. suddenly remembered Liang Ziye's favorite song, and sang it to her every time they met, sang it over and over again, and memorized the lyrics well.

Zi Ning's eyes flickered, she looked at Yue Hengtang steadily, suddenly smiled, and sang with the floating clouds and breeze: "You say that life is like a dream, I say that life is like a show, so what's the difference, it's not all the same hazy." It is enough to have you in the haze, and you and me are enough, and you are in my world, and a rainbow has risen. Simply love what you love, the world has become bigger, all the flowers are blooming for you, and all the scenery is arranged for you. We are so different, we must have loved each other in our previous lives, and we will meet again in this life......"

The singing is melodious, the affection is long, the moon Hengtang looks at her intently, and sees a green silk face reflected in the floating clouds and fairy air, the clothes are swirling, and the palace silk is flying, light and moving.

He immediately smiled, sat down cross-legged in front of her, threw out an ebony-colored guqin from his sleeve, and plucked the silver strings with his fingers, playing bursts of impassioned piano sounds.

When he landed, the fairy sound of his fingertips curled, and with Zi Ning's singing voice, it reverberated and lingered. In an instant, white cranes fluttering their wings flew out on both sides of the exquisite feather fan, making a clear sound, circling back and forth, and harmonizing with the sound of the song and piano.

The two looked at each other, and Zi Ning saw that his black hair on his sideburns was flying, and his eyes were deep and flashing, shining in the sun. couldn't help but feel his heart beating wildly, his face was crimson, and he felt that his eyes were full of his white-clothed shadow.

Yue Hengtang saw her smile floating, and her heart couldn't help but wave, she raised her sleeves and stroked the qin, and the sound of the Zheng Zheng piano emitted a resounding sound. In an instant, countless water droplets of light and shadow fell everywhere, turning into colorful silk brocade, revealing long ribbons of color, which quickly condensed and gathered, showing an arched rainbow glow in the sky.

"You are in my world, a rainbow has risen-" Yue Hengtang piano sound is not stopped, the song is loud and crisp, and a pair of eyes show intoxication.

Zi Ning looked up at the rainbow, holding her chin with her hands in empty fists, her face was full of obsession, her eyes were almost smiling into two slits, and she thought: "It's so beautiful, I'll quickly learn to fly with the fan, and fly with him every day in the future, play the piano and singβ€”β€”"

was in a daze, and suddenly saw Qi Song's dark blue figure flying quickly, standing in front of the feather fan, and reported: "Master, I have found the white ball, in the palace of Xiqi Kingdom." ”

Since Baiqiu was playing with Donglin Gongzi that day, Zi Ning has never seen it again, and she has been thinking about it in her heart. Yue Hengtang exerted his divine sense power and swept the entire Hair Dove Country, but he didn't find any trace of the white ball.

The prince of Tanglin will never take Xiao Pixiu as his own, and the white ball has not been seen for many days, and it is very likely to be caught, and he has fallen into danger.

Qilin and Pixiu are both fairy beasts, and they have many feelings with each other, so Yuehengtang ordered Qisong to investigate everywhere. Qi Song went for three days, and finally found some clues in the Xiqi Imperial Palace. The white ball was imprisoned in the trap, not knowing life or death.

Xiqi Country is known as the first country of the Dao Clan, with a vast territory, adjacent to the Fa Dove Country, and extremely rich in cultivation resources, especially rich in spirit stones. Although the 36 Cave Mansion and the 72 Cave Heaven of the Dao Clan have been in their own ways and have not had a common leader for many years, they are actually the only ones in the Xiqi Kingdom.

Emperor Xiqi has been the emperor for 800 years and has been refined to the Yuanjun Xuan Rank. In his early years, because he concentrated on cultivation, he was not close to women, and he left no heirs in the harem. When he reached the level of Yuanjun, he married the queen concubine and gave birth to two sons.

The eldest son, Pingjia, is twenty-eight years old, brave and introverted, a pair of golden linggen is quite talented, and has obtained a century-old inheritance of the Xiqi Kingdom, has cultivated to the eighth order of skills, and was designated as the crown prince by the Xiqi Emperor.

The second prince is twenty-three years old, but he is the most prominent figure in the Taoist clan. When he was born, the sky was full of visions, a sky full of burning clouds with thunder rolling, and the fragrance wafting in all directions, lingering endlessly, endlessly.

At the age of twelve, he received a thousand-year-old inheritance of the Xiqi Kingdom, and then traveled all year round, covering all over the world, looking for ancient relics to inherit.

It is rumored that he worshipped a mysterious immortal as a teacher in the Great Wilderness Mountain, cultivated superior immortal Taoism, was agile and flexible, and had a great tendency to be blue. At the age of seventeen, he broke through the Yuanjun Heavenly Rank, at the age of twenty, he broke through the bottleneck of the Divine Monarch three years later, and ascended to the Xuanyuan Terrace next month to seal the Zen Divine Monarch Step.

Xiqi has such an extraordinary figure, the Taoist people all admire the caves, specially proposed the word "Yuzun" for him to be honored, and spent countless spirit stones to build a Yuzun mansion in the capital, treasure the beauty, the noble status is comparable to the emperor of the immortal clan.

Many years later, there are good people in the immortal world who evaluate the two: Yue Hengtang and Jiansu, one is the absolute emperor of the immortal clan, and the other is the jade venerable of the Taoist clan.

There are also people who make two sentences: Tianjiao is like seeing everything, don't meet the moon Hengtang!

......

The stone wall of the capital city of Xiqi is towering, the market road is very lively, people come and go, the carriages and horses flow endlessly, there are all kinds of stalls and performances, and all kinds of hawkers shout and shout non-stop.

Zi Ning clenched Huanling's arm in his hand, his eyes flickered left and right, and he saw some spirit flowers and fairy grasses and illusion puppets sold in the bazaar, which felt very novel.

The streets and alleys of the capital city of Xiqi are densely intersected, and the cascading houses are magnificent. They walked all the way, there were many shops on both sides, countless stalls and vendors, wine shops, fireworks and willows, which made people look endless and linger.

Yue Hengtang didn't want to attract attention, so he had already hidden his immortal aura and turned into an ordinary young man, wearing a white coarse cloth coat and a fine linen turban to tie his hair, looking like a weak and honest scholar.

Qi Song also dressed up as a mortal little scholar, with a green cloth coat and hat, and a bookcase behind him, and followed his master in a daze.

Zi Ning and Huan Ling wore simple floral clothes, although they were dressed as mortal women, they couldn't hide their beautiful complexions, and their delicate faces were like flowers. The two held hands and laughed all the way, attracting sideways glances from people on the side of the road.

It was almost dusk, and the four of them found a magnificent restaurant inn in the city, and saw that the horizontal plaque in front of the door read the words "Drunken Immortal Yashe", and a string of yellow lanterns hung in front of the building, which was quite prosperous.

As soon as the four of them walked into the inn, they saw that the counter was crowded with people.

"The shopkeeper, on weekdays, there are only two spirit stones in the high-grade Tianzi guest room, and today even the low-grade utility room costs ten spirit stones, which is too unreasonable. A middle-aged man in a gray robe said with a frown.

A man with a shiny face next to him was very angry, and his hammer-sized fist slammed on the counter, shouting: "Where are you doing business, it's obviously robbery!"

A group of onlookers nodded their heads in agreement, and the innkeeper suddenly increased the price, which made them unable to accept it, and shouted for an hour, but the two sides still did not negotiate the price.

The shopkeeper's blue and white thin face, goat's beard trembled twice, and he snorted impatiently: "Two spirit stones also want to live in the hotel? You can't even live in a stable! Who doesn't want to continue to live, hurry up and leave to make room, the maids who are the gods and goddesses who have sealed Zen for the god monarch are all sent over at noon today, there are hundreds of people, how can there be a spare place for you individual guests to live?"

In the next month, the major events of the Immortal Dao Realm came together, the Immortal Dao Su Zhai Banquet, the Lingbao Auction, the Xuanyuan Tai Feng Zen, and the disciples of the Immortal Dao Clan Cave Mansion poured into Xiqi Country one after another, almost filling the entire capital.

Seeing everyone's grievances, a young man in the shop said dissatisfiedly: "Look at the cyclamen house next to it, a pot of spirit grass tea has risen to five spirit stones. You don't go to inquire, our drunken immortal Yashe is the first in the city, the house is the best, the child is not bullied, and the utility room has ten spirit stones a night, which is already the cheapest. ”

Now in the capital of Xiqi Kingdom, all the inns are full, and it is difficult to find even the halls and floors.

Although everyone knew that this was true, the drunken immortal Yashe raised the price at will, which also made them unbearable. The young man said in a strange voice: "We still have an idle Tianzi room in our store, and the price is not too high, three hundred spirit stones a night, welcome VIPs to stay." ”

Zi Ning and Huan Ling squeezed to the front of the counter, and when they heard the three hundred spirit stones, they all widened their eyes, and shouted in surprise: "So expensive?" The maid who worked as an errand in the dining room of the Fat Dove Country had one spirit stone per month, and she earned twelve spirit stones for a whole year, which was enough to feed a family of four.

Three hundred spirit stones, Huan Ling muttered, "I can buy a big mansion." ”

The shopkeeper glanced at her disdainfully, and said indifferently: "If the little girl is rich, go and buy a mansion to live in, but unfortunately the mansion in the capital of Xiqi Kingdom is the mansion of our Yuzun, and you have no place to buy it if you have money." ”

Huan Lingdeng's face turned red, and he bowed his head and did not speak.

With a "bang" sound, Yue Hengtang shook a large bag of spirit stones in front of the shopkeeper, threw them on the counter, and said: "Here are three hundred spirit stones, and I want a Tianzi upper room." ”

Everyone was shocked, turned their heads to look at this young man, and thought: "What kind of person is this, three hundred spirit stones for one night, there is no such a loser as him." "The spirit stones of the Immortal Dao Realm are not only circulating currency, but also can absorb spiritual energy for cultivation. Therefore, immortal cultivators attach great importance to spirit stones, and would rather not eat or drink themselves, but also have to be frugal to earn spirit stones to refine qi.

The muscles on the shopkeeper's face twitched, his blinking little eyes flashed with a philistine look, and he suddenly squinted and smiled: "This son, our price is calculated according to the head, and the four of you have to pay four times the price." As he spoke, he stretched out four fingers and shook them in front of his eyes.

He saw that Yue Hengtang was dressed as a scholar, with clear eyes and no variegation, followed by a little scholar with a book box behind him, and he also had a pure face. And the two little girls in front of the counter, fifteen or sixteen years old, looked ignorant, with big eyes and tilted their heads to look at him, looking ignorant and fearless.

I thought that these four young men and women must be going out for the first time, and they don't understand human feelings, and it is rare for a fat sheep to be sent to the door, and they will not be slaughtered for nothing.

When everyone heard that the price was quadruple, they all gasped, and said in their hearts that this shopkeeper was not robbing money, but trying to make money and kill him!

Unexpectedly, Yue Hengtang smiled faintly, took out a small cloth bag from his sleeve, poured it on the counter, rolled out more than a dozen shiny spirit crystals, and said: "These are high-grade spirit crystals, which are worth two thousand spirit stones." ”

A spirit crystal in the Immortal Dao Realm is worth a hundred spirit stones, and the price of a high-grade spirit crystal is higher. Everyone's eyes were fixed on those glowing spirit crystals, and they kept gurgling and spitting, "This kid...... It's so rich!"

The shopkeeper was so excited that his fingers trembled, and he touched the spirit crystals, and bursts of rich spiritual energy overflowed from them, and they were indeed genuine high-grade spirit crystals.

Most of the people who came to stay at the inn were immortal cultivators, and they secretly probed their divine senses to look at Yue Hengtang, and saw that there was no trace of true qi fluctuations on his body, and he was actually a mortal with no skills!

Deng Shi was very excited in his heart, and quietly investigated the other three, and saw that only Huan Ling was a fire spirit root, and he had just stepped into the first step of cultivation, and such a humble skill could not even resist an ordinary move.

Everyone forcibly suppressed the ecstasy in their hearts, and looked at each other and their accomplices, and countless greedy eyes gathered on the four of them.

――――

Q version:

Zining: Today, for the first time, I sang to everyone, those who have money will have a money field, and those who have no money will have a personal field. The title of the song is "Meet Again".

Yue Hengtang: I'm in charge of the accompaniment.

Zining: Then I'll just play the single loop. The boy went to listen to Wu Bai's version of "Meet Again", and the goddess Fan who automatically brained up the girl sitting on a feather fan and singing. The girl went to listen to Sun Lu's version of "Meet Again", and the male god Fan who played the piano in Hengtang played the piano in the brain.

Yuehengtang: ......
