Chapter 9: Iron Mountain City
The two chatted all the way, and Yang Lin knew that this Han surnamed Han, surnamed Han Mingkun, was twenty years old, and was from Liulin Village in the west of the city. Because of his outstanding martial arts and upright heart, he is the leader of several people behind him, and he takes a few people up the mountain to hunt, pick some herbs, and go to Tieshan City to exchange some items.
Tieshan City is the only city in the vicinity, which belongs to the jurisdiction of the Northern Jin Kingdom, and Tang Kui, the lord of Tieshan City, heard that he is a person who cultivates truth, but Han Kun does not understand these things, and he does not know what level he has reached.
Under the towering city wall, Han Kun, who had already been very familiar with the mixture, patted Yang Lin's shoulder and said loudly: "Brother Yang, let's go, let's go into the city, after entering the city, what do you have to do? If nothing happens, you will accompany me to sell this fur first, and I will invite you to have a drink upstairs with Huiyou to relieve your fatigue!"
Looking at the various crowds coming in and out under the city gate, Yang Lin had nothing to do, and he only took refuge when he entered the city, and by the way, he had some knowledge, and remembered the words of Dongshan Village, and wanted to enter the city once, I really don't know when it will be.
"I didn't have anything to do, I just went into the city to see the excitement, found a place to settle down to rest, anyway, it's fine, just go with Brother Han. ”
Han Kunxian was very familiar with this Iron Mountain City, and as he spoke, he reached out and took out a dozen copper coins from his arms and handed them to the soldiers guarding the door. When Yang Lin saw the soldier, he raised his eyebrows, so he was not fierce, and he scolded the pedestrians who entered the city again and again when he collected money, and he couldn't help but feel dissatisfied in his heart, thinking that this city lord must not be a kind person.
Stepping on the gravel paved road and stepping into the city, Yang Lin felt what a prosperous scene was, with many shops on the streets, people and cars, so lively. Asking this and that along the way, Han Kun tirelessly explained, which made Yang Lin happy and greatly moved.
When he walked to a leather store, Han Kun stopped, "Brother Yang went in with me to take a look, this leather shop is the largest in the city, and there are many rare birds and exotic animal skins and furs in it. Seeing Yang Lin nodding, he pushed the door in, and Yang Lin and the others followed closely into the store.
After entering the store, Han Kun took the first step and shouted to the old guy in the store: "Old ghost Ding, come and see how the fur I brought today, give a high price, I still have to go drinking!"
"What's the hurry, every time I hear you drink, the fur you bring is not very good, and I don't know if it is enough for your wine money. After speaking, an old man in gray slowly walked out of the counter in the store and came to the place where Han Kun put the animal skin behind him.
I picked up a few animal skins with my hand and looked at them, "Hey, it's still the skins of these wild boars and wild roe deer, there are no good goods." Hey, what kind of wolf beast is this, how does it have such a tail? ”
The gray-clothed old man squatted down, holding the tail of the black wolf in his hand, and muttered to himself: "I think this is a deep mountain xenomorph in the East Corner Mountain, this time you are lucky, this black wolf is still young, and he was seriously injured, it is estimated that he will be able to cultivate into a demon beast in a few years, if you meet a few people at that time, I am afraid that it will be difficult to protect your surname." ”
When Han Kun heard this, he was happy in his heart, and hurriedly asked: "This black wolf took a few of us half a month to kill, how much do you pay for this whole beast?"
The gray-clothed old man looked at Han Kun's excited look, spat out, and said, "Who knows if you killed it, maybe it was killed by this little friend next to you, and it may not be known!" After speaking, he glanced at Yang Lin, as if he wanted to see through Yang Lin.
Yang Lin was silent, and turned to look at the fur hanging on the wall in the store. There are a lot of furs hanging on the wall, but Yang Lin has never seen animal skins, one of which is a one-foot-sized golden fur placed in the corner, I don't know what kind of skin, Yang Lin only felt that there were some spiritual power fluctuations on it, although it was not very strong, it could indeed be seen that this beast was also a cultivated demon beast.
The gray-clothed old man saw Yang Lin staring at the golden fur, and walked up to Yang Lin: "This is a Lingbao rat skin, this Lingbao rat likes to look for some natural treasures, scarce mineral veins, etc.
It's just that this Lingbao Rat was easy to coax when he was young, and when he was a little older, he would use some spells, which was extremely fast, and ordinary people couldn't control it at all. This spirit treasure rat was bitten to death by the warlock in the city, and was finally killed by the city lord. ”
Yang Lin heard that this Lingbao rat still has such a preference, if he can catch one and raise it in the future, it will be convenient to go up the mountain to hunt for treasures, but then Wan'er smiled, just thinking about it, he knows that Lingbao rats are good, and it may be a trouble to get them.
Looking at the gray-clothed old man again, although he was old, but his eyes were bright, I thought that the gray-clothed old man could tell the Lingbao mouse in such detail, and he could know that this Lingbao mouse was not an ordinary mouse, and he could meet the enemy with his natural ability when he grew up.
The old man also stroked his beard and smiled. At this time, Han Kun shouted on the side: "What Lingbao Mouse, isn't this the Lingbao Rat that Wu Chen raised in Chengdong himself the year before last." Later, he bit Wu Chen to death and ran away, and the city lord tried his best to catch it, this Lingbao rat was also stubborn, and he was killed after a fight, and he was considered a beast.
Hey, I said old ghost Ding, quickly tell me how much silver this black wolf is worth, hurry up and give money, I still have something to do!" The old man in black glanced at Yang Lin again and nodded.
Turned around and returned to the counter and said to Han Kun, "Don't shout nonsense, your black wolf is far worse than that Lingbao Mouse." Here are a hundred taels of silver, and if you want to keep the black wolf and the furs, don't carry them and sell them elsewhere. With that, he took out a few pieces of silver from the drawer and threw them on the counter, and kept silent.
Han Kun's face was a little happy, he stepped forward to pick up the silver, put it on the cushion with his hand, and said in his mouth: "Every time you make a fixed price, you don't give a chance to bargain, forget it, this time it will be cheaper for you, and it will be higher next time." ”
turned around and patted Yang Lin on the shoulder, "Let's go, brother, let's drink." ”
Yang Lin chuckled, and was just about to go out, only to hear the old man in black say from behind: "This little brother, if you have time before leaving, you can come to sit with me, people are old, and they like young people to chat together to relieve boredom." ”
After Yang Lin heard this, his mind turned sharply, and he responded, "As long as you don't think I'm stupid, you should come to the door to bother!" After saying a look at the old man, he turned around and walked out of the store.
When he came to the outside of the store, Han Kun put the silver in his hand. He pointed to the three-story wooden building not far in front of him and said, "Let's go, brother, let's go drink." After speaking, he led the way before striding forward, and Yang Lin followed behind.
A few people came to the second floor of the restaurant and found a window seat to sit down, Han Kun was obviously extremely familiar, and gave orders to Xiao Er, while Yang Lin looked out through the window when he had nothing to do, the street was so lively, far from being comparable to Dongshan Village.
When I was looking, I saw a four-** car parked in front of the fur shop just now, and what was surprising was that the cart was not an ordinary horse, but a black tiger.
After stopping the car, the driver got out of the car and walked to the black tiger, patted it lightly on the head of the black tiger with his hand, and whispered a few words in his mouth, and the black tiger obediently bowed down and did not move. The driver then went to the back, opened the door, held the curtain with his hand, and said something like careful.
I saw a skirt sticking out of the car, and then a woman in a green dress stepped out of the car, and without speaking, she walked directly into the fur shop.
Yang Lin was also curious when he saw this, and just wanted to ask. I only heard Han Kun say: "Brother wants to know who the black tiger pulls the car, and who is in the car." She is the lady of the city lord, and she is called Mrs. Lotus because she likes lotus flowers, and her martial arts are amazing.
That year, a black tiger came out of the mountain, that is, the one that crawled on the ground, the city lord happened to be not in the city, and the Lotus Lady took action alone to subdue the black tiger, and since then the city has known that the Lotus Lady is also a cultivator.
It's just that I don't know what happened to this lady Lotus in that shop, is it to buy some furs and go back to make jackets. At this time, Han Kun poured a glass of wine and raised his glass, "Come, brother, do it." After saying that, he took a sip.
Seeing this, Yang Lin also drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, only to feel a burst of heat in his abdomen, fortunately, when he was at home, he often secretly drank with his eldest brother, otherwise he would definitely make a fool of himself today.
The man next to him filled the wine glass again, and Han Kun continued: "I saw my brother walking alone on the mountain, and I think I am also a capable person, and seeing my brother today is also a blessing for my brother, thanks to my brother who looks up to my foolish brother, I will have a good drink today!"
While talking, several people pushed their cups and changed their glasses, and they were all a little drunk. Yang Lin was drinking and thinking about the old man in the shop, just filling his stomach indiscriminately, this dish was much better than the wild fruits in the mountains, and the wine was not less.
After he was full of wine and food, Han Kun asked: "Where will my brother go to settle down in a while, and if he has nowhere to go, how about going back to the village with me in a while? Wouldn't it be nice for you and my brother to drink together!"
Yang Lin arched his hand and said: "Thank you Brother Han for taking me in, I originally wanted to come out and have a look, but now I will enter the city, find an inn to live in, and after a few days of shopping, I will see where to go." He said that he would go to Brother Han's place to disturb, and hoped that Brother Han would not blame!"
When Han Kun saw that Yang Lin said firmly, he didn't persuade him, put his hand into his arms, took out the one hundred taels of silver that he had just sold, put it in front of Yang Lin, and pushed his hand and said, "Brother wants to stay, but accept this silver first." ”
Yang Lin saw Han Kun's serious expression and serious expression, knowing that he was afraid that he would not have silver taels on his body, and it would be difficult to live in the city, and he couldn't help but feel a hot current in his heart.
Punched at Han Kun, thinking that Han Kun was bright and happy, Yang Lin was not a pretentious person, and said in a heavy voice: "Then brother, I'm not welcome, he said that he is free, and his brother will go to Liulin Village to visit the eldest brother." Han Kun saw Yang Lin accept it, a smile appeared on his face, and after a few more glasses of wine, Han Kun counted the wine money and took a few men out of the city and back to the village.
Yang Lin had nothing to do, wandered around the street for a while, and slowly walked to the corner not far from the leather store, thinking that it was okay anyway, and when the Lotus Lady came out, he went in to talk to the old man, maybe he could inquire about some things in the cultivation realm, if he could inquire about some cultivation sects, then it would be better, and find an inn to rest later.
After waiting for a pillar of incense, I saw the curtain of the store door open, and Mrs. Lotus walked out of it with light steps and walked directly into the car. The coachman hurriedly walked up to the black tiger and whispered a few words, and the black tiger got up and ran towards the city with the cart.
After turning around at the door, Yang Lin saw that no one was in or out of the fur shop, so he walked slowly to the door of the store and pushed the door in. When I entered the door, I saw that there was no one in the store, and I thought that the old man was behind the store.
As soon as he lowered his head and saw the Lingbao mouse skin he had seen before, Yang Lin couldn't help but step forward and stroke it with his hand, closed his eyes, and felt a wave of spiritual power fluctuation coming from this skin. It seems that this Spirit Treasure Rat must also be a demon beast that has been cultivated, but he can't judge what level he can reach.
