Chapter 198: A Fortress City with Bright Lights
Just when everyone was confused by Nanyuan's complicated actions, the huge black masonry of the city wall suddenly separated from the left and right in front of them, revealing a passage for only one person to walk with.
"Don't be surprised, the opening of the passage is so troublesome, you just need to get used to it in the future. After speaking, he didn't explain, and entered the passage first.
The crowd followed into the passage.
A passage several feet long, a few people passed through after a while, and when they walked out of the passage, they were immediately stunned by everything in front of them!
In front of you, it is an unusually prosperous big city, the city Qionglou Yuyu, high-rise buildings stand in a forest, all kinds of buildings can not be seen at a glance, the bluestone road of Zhang Xu Kuan, both sides are full of large-scale shops, refining workshops, gambling houses, restaurants, tea houses, and even the green buildings of Yingge Yan Dance have several, the lights are red and green, and it is a lively scene.
The various immortal cultivators in the city are crowded, there are monks, Taoists, Confucian students, ghost cultivators, demon cultivators, etc., it can be described as a hodgepodge, and the monks who cannot be seen in the Zhenwu country are everywhere here, as if the immortal cultivators of the entire Eastern Holy Land are gathered here.
In the restaurant, teahouse, and green building, it is overcrowded, and they are all talking and laughing, laughing heartily, looking so unhappy, it seems to be very different from the atmosphere that Nanyuan said!
Everyone was puzzled and turned their eyes to Nanyuan.
Seeing everyone's stunned expressions, Nan Yuan immediately laughed and said, "You don't have to be so surprised, of course we are extremely dangerous when we get out of the fortress, but in this fortress... Hehe, you should understand... ”
Everyone was indeed a little stunned at first, but after hearing Nanyuan's explanation, they all understood, for these monks who 'don't know tomorrow'. It makes sense to have time to come here for a stroll.
Without pausing all the way, through the bustling street, Nanyuan led everyone straight to the miscellaneous pavilion in the center of the fortress city. The city was bigger than expected, and it took nearly half an hour to walk before I came to the Miscellaneous Pavilion.
Enter the Miscellaneous Cabinet. The first impression given to people is one word, big.
In the hall of 100 feet, there are only about 30 people, and it looks very empty. Nan Yuan explained that this was because there were dozens of small miscellaneous offices in the city to receive supplies, and when no major events occurred, this place became the most deserted place in the city.
Nanyuan handled the relevant matters of entering the fortress for everyone in turn, and the foundation building monk was naturally in the front, and Bai Chop was last. When he handed the identity card to Nanyuan, he couldn't help but make Nanyuan slightly stunned.
The identity card clearly indicated Bai Chop's cultivation, but why did he suppress his cultivation to the Qi cultivation period, which made Nan Yuan slightly puzzled, but he didn't ask, but quietly arranged Bai Chop according to the treatment that a foundation building monk should have.
Nanyuan came to the fortress for some years, and monks like Bai Shu generally have secrets hidden in their bodies. At the same time, it is also a character who is not easy to provoke, since people have to be 'low-key'. Then there's no need to meddle in your own affairs and add to your own troubles.
Bai Chu didn't say a word along the way, and the only time he opened his mouth was only two words, 'Thank you.' ’
Nanyuan nodded slightly, looking as usual.
Eight people lit the soul lamp. After receiving some more supplies, they left the Miscellaneous Cabinet. Of course, the five foundation building monks would not take Bai Shu and the other three juniors in their eyes, and they didn't even bother to take a look, so they said hello to Nanyuan and left together.
Originally, the other two men in the Qi training period also wanted to invite Bai Shu to chat together. But he politely refused.
Bai Shu put a jade slip on his forehead, checked the direction of his residence, left the miscellaneous pavilion alone, and went straight to his residence.
In a corner where no one was around, Bai Slash restored his cultivation and original appearance before continuing to move forward, otherwise a Qi cultivation period monk would easily arouse the suspicion of others when he went to the residence area of the foundation building monk.
In the entire Western Wilderness Fortress, there are a total of 100 cities like this, and each city can only accommodate a few thousand people.
The one where Bai Chop is located is called the [Seventh Fortress City], and all the people living in it are scattered cultivators, and those who are ranked after ten in the sequence are all sectarian forces, so it can be seen that there are not many scattered cultivators who dare to come to the Western Wilderness to find opportunities, not forced to a certain extent, who would take such a big risk.
The fortress city is divided into five areas, three of which are residential areas, another is a shop area, and one is a special area, including the earth fire room used in alchemy, the spirit gathering room for breaking through the exercises, and so on.
The residential area where the foundation building monk is located is in the east of the city, and each foundation building monk has an independent courtyard, which is said to be another courtyard, but in fact it is just a larger stone house, there is a stone house every thirty zhang, and there are various prohibitions in it to ensure that it will not be disturbed when practicing, and at the same time, it will not be blown down when practicing spells.
Bai Shu walked alone to the east of the city, and the further east he went, the fewer monks he could see.
It is no wonder that the monks in the city either gather in the shop area to seek pleasure, or they retreat in their residences, and they are not farmers in the villages, and they will wander around the door of their homes when they are full.
Half an hour later, Bai Slash passed through several stone houses and stopped in front of a stone house with a door number marked 'Seventy-Seven'.
Judging from the appearance alone, this stone house is only five zhang in size, and people living here are really aggrieved.
Shaking his head slightly, Bai Shu took out the identity card from the storage bag, and shook it in front of the stone door, the stone door slowly fell, revealing a downward staircase passage.
The top of the passage is inlaid with bright fluorite, which illuminates the entire passage.
"Huh?" Bai Chu's expression was slightly stunned, it turned out that there was something else in this stone house, which couldn't help but make him happy.
The divine consciousness swept through the passage, and everything was normal, and then he walked down the stone steps.
After experiencing Miaohe, Xia Chuan, and Shimen's betrayals twice in a row, Bai Slash has become more and more cautious, which shows that his heart has matured a lot, and he is more adapted to this cruel immortal cultivation world.
Descending the stone steps, there is a bright hall in front of him, with complete tables and chairs, and the furnishings are antique, but there is a feeling of the mansion of the dignitaries and nobles in the mortal world.
There are two stone rooms on the left and right sides of the hall, and after checking them one by one, it is almost the same as what he thought, the living room, the practice room, the storage room, and the spirit beast room are all complete, anyway, it is much better than he imagined.
With one move, the two small flags on the table came to his hands, and according to the method recorded in the jade slip, he shook it a few times, and the prohibition in the house was all opened.
This journey can make his spirit tense all the time, and now he arrived at a safe place, his mind suddenly relaxed, and he suddenly felt physically and mentally exhausted, like a tide.
When he came to the living room, he fell down on the comfortable soft couch, but after ten breaths, the snoring had already started. (To be continued.) )
