Chapter 5: Ascension Tower
"Thank you, Brother Wang!" Tuyuan jumped down from the carriage and turned back to thank the captain of the adventure team. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info He rode the carriage of this kind adventure team all the way from Xiaomuhe Town to the vicinity of Jiushen Peak, and he was not less taken care of by the captain of the adventure team, that is, Brother Wang.
Brother Wang has a pair of very sharp sword eyebrows, but Wen Dun, who has a surprisingly strange temperament, he smiled and said: "Where is the little brother of Tuyuan, when you walk outside, you always have to help each other, and besides, we are also just on the way, so you don't have to take it to heart." ”
"Then what's the matter, Brother Wang, I only have three gold coins here, give them all to you, and treat them as my travel expenses. Tuyuan took out his wallet from his bosom, and it was empty, only three gold coins. When he was in Xiaomuhe Village, Tuyuan exchanged the copper and silver coins funded by the villagers into gold coins.
Brother Wang said: "Little brother, don't worry, you went to the Lingxi Sect's Immortal Ascension Conference, but you still need money, give us all the money, what should you do?"
"Then, then you will take two?" insisted Lu Yuan.
Brother Wang didn't want money, but he couldn't stand the persistence of Long Road. In the end, he took a gold coin and left two for Tuyuan.
Watching Tuyuan gradually walk away, Brother Wang let out a long sigh.
"What's the matter, you're still reluctant to let people go?" said Brother Wang's daughter-in-law as she walked over from the side and quipped.
Brother Wang said: "That's not it, it's just that Yuan Yuan is a good person." ”
"You're a good person, too. Sister-in-law Wang said.
"I mean, there's always a lot of bad people in this world. Alas, I hope that the little brother will not meet any bad people. After Brother Wang said this, he turned around and packed his things.
......
Brother Wang's family lives in a small place called "Banjie Mountain". It is called Banjie Mountain because there is a mountain in front of the village that looks like it has been cut down. That mountain peak was indeed cut down by someone, and the person who cut the mountain was still on the top of Jiushen Peak, that is, the immortals of the Lingxi Sect.
Banjie Mountain is only ten miles away from Lingxi Town, and it is not long to walk until you reach the entrance of Lingxi Town. Tuyuan looked at the bustling crowd, looked up and saw the ethereal and vigorous "Lingxi Town" standing on the gate of the town, and couldn't help but sigh: "This is Lingxi Town!"
Lingxi Town has existed here for hundreds of years, and this is a town specially established here by the Lingxi Sect, which can be regarded as a place for the disciples of the sect to settle down. At this time, because of the Immortal Ascension Conference, there were not many people in the town. It's not a big town, but so many people can still be let in.
According to the information provided by Brother Wang, the first thing Tuyuan did when he came to Lingxi Town was to find an inn. There were so many people who came to participate in the Immortal Ascension Conference that if you didn't find a place to live in advance, you would have to sleep on the street.
The distance followed the flow of people into the town. There is almost everything in Lingxi Town, there are also restaurants and shops for mortals, and there are also weapons and tools for immortals, and Tuyuan is dazzling. Walking around, I saw an extremely tall and conspicuous building in the distance. The building covers a large area, a total of three floors, antique, the front of the eight doors are open, a decent plaque on the door, on the book "ascending immortal building" three big characters.
"Is this the Shengxian Tower?" "Tuyuan heard the name of the Shengxian Building from Brother Wang's mouth. According to Brother Wang, Shengxian Tower is the best inn in the town, and at the same time, it is also the cheapest. The reason why it is cheap is because the Ascension Tower was not built to make a profit, but to entertain the people who came to participate in the Ascension Conference.
With a nervous mood, Tuyuan walked into the Ascension Immortal Tower. The inside of the Shengxian Building was also resplendent in gold, he walked to the front of the counter, and the shopkeeper standing in front of the counter was smiling: "May I ask the guest officer if he wants to stay in the hotel?"
The shopkeeper's smile dispelled the apprehension in Tuyuan's heart, and Tuyuan returned a smile and said, "Yes...... How much is the cheapest room here?"
The shopkeeper didn't answer Yuan Yuan's question, but just asked, "Are you here to participate in this Immortal Ascension Conference?"
"Yes......"
"Is there a Ascending Immortal Jade Plaque? If not, you can't stay in. ”
After hearing this, Tu Yuan showed the jade plaque that he had been carrying in his arms, and the shopkeeper looked at it carefully, nodded, and said, "The cheapest inferior room we have here only needs one gold coin." ”
It's really cheap!Tu Yuanxi said: "Then give me an inferior room." ”
"But alas, the inferior rooms are all booked. The shopkeeper's smile did not diminish in the slightest, but Tuyuan felt annoying.
"Where's the medium room?"
"No more. ”
"Then you always have a superior room, right?"
"There is only one upper class room left. ”
"Then I'll want that!" said Tu Yuanxi.
"Good objectivity, three gold coins a day in the upper class. ”
“......”
Tuyuan took out the only two gold coins left from his arms with a sad face, and he now regretted why he insisted on giving Brother Wang a gold coin. This is pure and you won't die if you don't die!
The shopkeeper saw Tuyuan's expression in his eyes, and he didn't speak, but there was a hint of playfulness in his smile.
"It seems that my brother is shy?" a voice sounded next to him when he was in a difficult situation. Tuyuan turned around and saw a young man in tattered clothes standing behind him. The boy was about the same age as Tuyuan, but only sixteen or seventeen years old, and his body was a little emaciated, and he seemed to be malnourished for a long time. The boy's eyebrows were delicate, and his eyes flashed with an unusual light.
"Hello, my name is Hou Dengbao. Seeing that Tuyuan was looking at him, the young man greeted him politely, and then said, "I think the two of us can share a first-class room, what do you say, brother?"
Tuyuan looked at the familiar guy in front of him a little speechlessly. I didn't know my name, so I started to be a brother and a brother. Tuyuan had the heart to refuse, but thinking that he was indeed very shy in his pocket, he hesitated for a moment, and finally agreed to the proposal of a young man named Hou Dengbao.
"Ha, I knew you would agree, what's your name, brother, and we'll be under the same roof for the next few days. Hou Dengbao laughed.
"The distance, the journey, the distance. Tuyuan said lightly.
The two of them paid the room fee, and the key to the room fell into the hands of Tuyuan. The reason why the key was held by Tuyuan was because Tuyuan paid two gold coins.
Entering the room, Tuyuan sadly found that there was only one bed in the room. When Hou Dengbao saw it, he said to Tuyuan: "Brother, it seems that we are going to sleep in the same bed." Seriously, it's the first time I've slept in a bed with a man when I'm this big, haha. ”
Haha, your sister...... Tuyuan watched Hou Dengbao lie on the bed without seeing it, and suddenly felt that his decision just now seemed to be wrong.
The three gold coins in the upper room of the ascending immortal building are indeed extremely cheap. Except for this Shengxian Tower, the other inns were all privately built in Lingxi Town, and the cost of those rooms was almost more than three times that of the Shengxian Building. From this point of view, it is very wise for Tuyuan and Hou Dengbao to partner to win this first-class house.
Dinner is provided free of charge at the Shengxian Building. Because the Shengxian Building is directly under the Lingxi faction, the rice provided in it is made of fairy rice. After eating fairy rice, Tuyuan realized that the things he had eaten in the past 16 years were indeed garbage, dross, and shit. It's no wonder that the immortal seniors were reluctant to eat the food they cooked, and Tuyuan finally found the reason today.
But when he thought of the immortal seniors having a meal quietly with him before leaving, Tuyuan's heart was extremely sweet. It feels like ...... It's like catching a lot of white rabbits in one go!
After Hou Dengbao finished eating, he was picking his teeth, and suddenly saw Tuyuan showing a "mysterious" smile. He said, "Hey, Brother Tuyuan, what are you thinking about?
"Huh, what?" Tu Yuan was pulled back by Hou Dengbao's words, and his thoughts almost drifted back, "No, I didn't think about anything." ”
"Didn't think about anything?" Hou Dengbao smiled, "According to my brother Hou's emotional experience for so many years, you must be thinking about women, am I right?"
Tuyuan was suddenly hit by Hou Dengbao's heart, and his face suddenly turned red: "Nonsense, I, I'm obviously thinking about the Immortal Ascension Conference in a few days." ”
"The matter of the Immortal Ascension Conference ......" Hou Dengbao knew that he had guessed correctly, but he didn't continue to delve into it, after all, it was someone else's private matter. He followed the topic of Tuyuan and asked Tuyuan: "Brother Tu, do you know anything about the Immortal Ascension Conference?" or ...... What do you know about cultivating immortals?"
"I don't know much. Tuyuan replied honestly.
Hou Dengbao said curiously: "That's strange, if you don't know about the Immortal Ascension Conference, then where did you get the Immortal Ascension Jade Plaque? Hou Dengbao said as he took out the jade plaque in his arms.
"This jade plaque...... It was given to me by a senior. Every time Tuyuan thinks of that cold shadow, his heart will be in a trance.
"Then it seems that your senior must be a great man. Hou Dengbao said.
"By the way, you still asked me. Then I want to know how you got your jade plate?" Tuyuan collected his thoughts and asked Hou Dengbao instead.
"Ahem!" Hou Dengbao showed a serious expression on his face, and he listened carefully unconsciously, "Once upon a time, there was a beggar passing by my house, and he was surprised to see my bones, so he ......."
"I gave you the jade plate?" interrupted Tuyuan.
"Listen to me. "The beggar was amazed at my bones, so he took me as an apprentice and taught me seven years." Seven years later, I stole a money bag that didn't have much money in it, but it had a jade plaque. ”
"Wait, my mind is a little messy. Tuyuan was a little confused, "The matter of the jade plate is not important, so your master and you are both ......."
"That's right, brother, you can call me the first thief on the third day...... First disciple!" Hou Dengbao puffed up his skinny chest and looked extremely proud.
"Hehe......" Tuyuan sneered.
