Chapter 273: The Triennial General Assembly
The walls of the mortal city were not very high, but Xu Lin already knew from the map that the city was still very large, enough to accommodate a million people. A mortal city of a million people is already very good. However, compared to the Youzhou Fenghua Immortal City that Xu Lin had visited, I don't know where the inferiority was.
However, thinking about the gap between mortals and monks, Xu Lin also developed admiration for the mortals who built the city.
On the land of Zhongzhou, all mortal cities are under the control of the Yue Tang Dynasty, so it is not surprising that there are officers and soldiers guarding the city at the gate of this city. However, when Xu Lin passed through the city gate, the officers and soldiers guarding the city only glanced at him and did not come up to interrogate.
"It seems that this month, the Tang Dynasty is much better than the Great Xia Kingdom, at least there is no ** phenomenon. Xu Lin walked in the city, secretly comparing the Yuetang Dynasty with the Great Xia Kingdom he had been to.
In the city, the roads extend in all directions, and they are very clean, and there are many passers-by. Xu Lin was mixed in with the passers-by and walked towards the southern district where Xianshi was located.
The southern district of the city occupies a quarter of the entire city, and when Xu Lin stood still in front of the immortal market, he couldn't help but smile dumbly. It turns out that this immortal market looks like an ordinary vegetable market among mortals, there is no forbidden formation to protect it, and there is no fixed manager, it is completely sold and bought by monks freely.
For this kind of place, Xu Lin once heard Taixu say that this kind of immortal market is the most prone to false trading, and there are often places where people kill people and sell goods in the market. At that moment, Xu Lin was slightly vigilant, he was most jealous of this kind of thing, if it happened to him, he didn't mind killing him.
There were two monks standing in front of the entrance to the immortal market with very indifferent expressions, and after seeing Xu Lin coming, one of them walked up and said to Xu Lin, "What are you doing? If you want to go in, you must hand over two Xuanyang Pills first." ”
Xu Lin's body was rippling with fluctuations of vitality, as long as the monk could see his identity as a cultivator at a glance, so the two of them did not expel Xu Lin, but just asked Xu Lin to hand over two Xuanyang Pills.
"Two Xuanyang Pills!" Xu Lin smiled, and he could see at a glance that these two were just guarding the door here, not letting mortals in. Not wanting to think too much about it, he turned over and took out two Xuanyang Pills and threw them to the man, then walked past the person and walked into the market, and disappeared into the crowded monks in a moment.
"Brother, it's a big chicken. After Xu Lin left, the monk who came up to him to ask for Xuanyang Dan threw two Xuanyang Pills, walked up to the other monk, and whispered to him.
Two Xuanyang Pills, although they are not a big number, but looking at Xu Lin's casual look, the monk immediately guessed that Xu Lin had not a few Xuanyang Pills. Although the two brothers are here to guard the door, they are secretly not so clean, and they often do more than the goods. This time, the two of them fell in love with Xu Lin.
"Keep your eyes open, and be careful not to leave that kid alone. His brother replied in a low voice, his eyes looking into the market, as if he wanted to find Xu Lin's figure.
"I know!" the monk who spoke first nodded, and with a look of excitement on his face, walked back to where he had been standing.
In the market, there are a lot of monks who come and go to buy things, if it weren't for the monk's body being washed by the vitality of heaven and earth, there wouldn't be much sweat on his body, maybe the smell in the market would be bad at this time.
A thin and almost invisible light mask rose from the surface of Xu Lin's body, and his face squeezed through the crowd calmly. His eyes scanned the market.
This market is not small, there are shops on both sides, and in the middle is a stall set up by the monk himself, on which are some bits and pieces, I think I just want to exchange for some Xuanyang Dan cultivation. After Xu Lin took a look, he set his eyes on the shops on both sides, and soon found the store he wanted to go to.
"Baicaoxuan", this is a shop specializing in selling pills, Xu Lin squeezed through the crowd and appeared in front of the door of "Baicaoxuan".
Walking into Baicaoxuan, Xu Lin's gaze passed through the monks and fell on the owner of the shop. It was a middle-aged man wearing a sky-blue robe, and he saw that his cultivation actually had a divine step. It's just that Xu Lin found that his mana was not strong, and it was the kind that he could slap to death with one palm.
However, the cultivation of the Divine Step of the owner of this shop was nothing in Xu Lin's eyes, but in this market, it could deter more than ninety percent of the people, after all, in the eyes of many monks of small sects, the Divine Step was already an existence that could only be looked up to.
Xu Lin walked over, and after one of the monks entertained by the master left, he immediately said to him, "I want to buy some elixirs to treat injuries, take out all the pills in your shop." ”
When the shopkeeper heard Xu Lin's words, a look of astonishment rose on his face. Looking up and glancing at Xu Lin in surprise, after finding that he couldn't see Xu Lin's cultivation clearly, his complexion changed immediately, and he hurriedly said respectfully: "This senior needs an elixir to treat his injuries? We have a lot of such pills in our store, if we take them all out, this...!"
"Don't talk so much nonsense, you take it out, I'll buy it all. Xu Lin said coldly.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Seeing that Xu Lin seemed impatient, the master's expression tightened, and he said three good words in a row, and then quickly turned around and brought Xu Lin dozens of different types of elixirs to treat injuries.
"How many Xuanyang Pills are together?" After Xu Lin only saw that there were many of them that he knew, he waved his sleeves and took all of them into the Xuangong Palace, and asked the boss in a cold voice.
"Uh...!" The owner of the store saw that Xu Lin had taken all the pills in, his eyes were round, and when he heard Xu Lin ask how many Xuanyang Pills he wanted, his face immediately smiled like a flower: "Senior, a total of 110,000 Xuanyang Pills." ”
"Here you go!" As soon as he heard this price, Xu Lin didn't say a word, waved his hand and took out 110,000 Xuanyang Dan and gave it to him, and then turned around and was about to leave.
"Senior, senior, please wait. At this time, the owner of the shop stopped Xu Lin.
"What's the matter?" Xu Lin turned around, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, and he said coldly.
"That's right, Senpai. The junior is an outer disciple of Tiangong Academy, and because his cultivation is too slow, he left the academy and opened this shop here. I think my predecessors have an extraordinary bearing, and I think they are also people with great backgrounds. Three months later, Tiangong Academy will hold a decennial conference on Taoism, and the younger generations feel that the seniors can go and have a look. After the shopkeeper saw the fierce light flashing in Xu Lin's eyes, his body trembled, and he hurriedly opened his mouth to Xu Lin.
"The once-in-a-decade Daoist Conference?" Xu Lin looked at him and didn't speak, but the thoughts in his mind turned rapidly, analyzing the truth and falsehood of this person's words, as well as the pros and cons of it.
"Tiangong Academy held this Dao Conference, if it is true, it will definitely attract a lot of people to go at that time, I wonder if they will also be attracted to it? I have to go and take a look. In an instant, Xu Lin analyzed one of the things that was of great use to him, and at that moment, Xu Lin asked coldly, "Is this really true?"
"Seriously, seriously, how dare the juniors deceive the seniors in this kind of big event, the seniors only need to inquire outside to be able to know. When the shopkeeper heard Xu Lin's question, he nodded and said busily.
Looking at the look on the face of the shopkeeper, it doesn't look like he was lying to himself. What's more, what he said is also reasonable, this kind of big event, there will definitely be rumors outside, and when the time comes, he will naturally be able to find out whether it is true or false. Suddenly, Xu Lin decided to go and have a look.
After retracting his thoughts, Xu Lin glanced at the shopkeeper coldly, then turned away, and soon disappeared into the crowd.
After seeing Xu Lin leave, the shopkeeper reached out and wiped a few drops of cold sweat overflowing from his forehead, Xu Lin stood in front of him, he felt a very terrifying momentum, making him feel a huge pressure.
After purchasing the elixir to treat his injuries, Xu Lin no longer had the intention of continuing to stay in this market. The monks he had squeezed in and over soon appeared at the entrance, and after a pause, Xu Lin walked past the two gatekeepers and walked behind the city gate.
"Brother, that's that kid. After Xu Lin came out, the two gatekeepers who had made his mind at the beginning walked together, and the younger brother pointed to Xu Lin's back and said to his brother.
"Go, follow, and when he's out of town, we'll find a place to kill him. His brother nodded, a look of greed flashing in the corners of his eyes, and said in his mouth.
At that moment, the two of them didn't even do their own gatekeeping work, and followed Xu Lin from a distance and walked to the city gate together.
Xu Lin's footsteps were very fast, and after half a pillar of incense, he came to the gate of the city. At the same time, he also sensed that two people behind him were secretly following him.
"Hmph, I didn't expect to be noticed. Just two guys who are in the step of the primordial gods also dare to do that murderous thing, looking at their looks, this kind of thing has been done many times. Okay, let me get rid of the next two tumors. Xu Lin snorted coldly in his heart, didn't look back, slowed down, and walked out of the city gate.
The two brothers didn't notice that Xu Lin had discovered them, and after seeing Xu Lin walk out of the city gate, their faces were full of excitement, and they quickened their pace and followed Xu Lin out of the city gate.
After leaving the city, Xu Lin did not speed up any longer, and walked towards the barren land where he had fallen in the distance.
The two brothers saw Xu Lin take the initiative to go to the barren land, although they felt that something was wrong, but the two did not hesitate and quickly followed.
A moment later, Xu Lin appeared in a barren place, uninhabited, and far away from the city. After standing still, Xu Lin sneered, didn't look back, and said loudly: "After following for so long, don't be sneaky in the back anymore, come out." ”
"Brother, he found us!" Outside of Xu Lin, the two brothers originally wanted to hide and approach Xu Lin. But Xu Lin's sudden words surprised the two, and the younger brother said to his brother first.
was told his whereabouts, and the elder brother naturally knew that his two brothers might have kicked the iron plate this time, but when he saw that Xu Lin was very young, he estimated that Xu Lin would not be much stronger even if he was strong, and he had two people.
At that moment, the elder brother patted his younger brother, stood up, and quickly approached Xu Lin. The two brothers appeared in front of Xu Lin, and the elder brother waved his hand and released a knife-shaped magic weapon, pointed at Xu Lin, and said fiercely: "Boy, hand over everything on your body, and our brother will leave you a way to live." ”
The younger brother also released a magic weapon of the same knife shape and pointed at Xu Lin, and after hearing his brother speak, he also waved the long knife in his hand, with a hideous look on his face.
"Two bedbugs!" Xu Lin snorted lightly, stretched out his hands, and slapped them out at the two brothers. The mana surged, and the two huge palms flew away from Xu Lin's hands and slammed on the two brothers' bodies.
"Bang bang!" Two sounds, before the two brothers could react to what was happening, they were smashed into pieces by Xu Lin's two huge palms, their bodies exploded, and blood and flesh were splashed.
Killing the two of them with a wave of his hand, Xu Lin's face did not fluctuate for a moment. Killing people and selling goods, Xu Lin is most jealous of this kind of thing, killing two tumors has no psychological impact on Xu Lin.
After cutting off the two tumors, all the anxiety in Xu Lin's original heart dissipated at this moment. After knowing the Dao Conference of Tiangong Academy, Xu Lin had more hope in his heart to find Taixu and others.
With a wave of his hand, a brilliant colorful glow poured out, and the Taiyi Lotus Huaxian Boat, which had not been used for a long time, appeared in front of Xu Lin. After stepping onto the Taiyi Lotus Huaxian Boat, the Immortal Boat quickly took off into the air, turned into a streamer in the sky, and flew towards the direction of Tiangong Academy, and in a moment, a small black dot was left in the sky in the distance.
