Chapter 8: The City of Chaos, a Small Evacuation
City of Chaos, City of Chaos, hold on, you can't fall outside, I still have the heavy task assigned by the master has not been completed! Ye Qi's freehand walk in front of Li Qi, in fact, even if he only had a little bit of true qi, he walked to the second half, and his eyes were golden and he almost wanted to faint.
In his eyes, a city appeared in front of him. The ancient walls made of old stones are densely covered with countless cracks, and the heavy colors set off the age. Although time has destroyed its vicissitudes, it still stands majestically, like a dormant lion, blocking how many grievances and vendettas, and calming down how many years of grace.
The traces of moss are still there, the ancient city is twilight, and no one underestimates it!
With heavy steps, Ye Qi had just entered the city, and as soon as his originally tense nerves were loosened, he suddenly felt dizzy, and he couldn't support it anymore and fell down.
The chaotic city is crowded with people and traffic. But Ye Qi seemed to have become transparent, and no one noticed the young man who had fainted inside the city gate.
Ye Qi woke up again, and it was already the second day.
I'm still here, such a big living person lying down, and no one notices?
"Little brother, is it new?" Just as Ye Qi stood in place with an incredulous expression, thinking. A man came by beside him, patted him on the shoulder, and accosted him. "Seeing you like this, are you stunned that you fainted for a day and a night, and no one cares?"
The faces of the people who came were older than Ye Qi, and the tone was a little old-fashioned, as if they were quite famous in this chaotic city. "Don't be stupid, this is a chaotic city, why did you come here? Haven't you been hunted down and killed here? The people in here can't protect themselves, who cares about a newcomer like you?"
"Then you ......" Ye Qi was accosted and didn't react for a while.
"Who am I? Everyone in the City of Chaos is known to be warm-hearted, and when anyone sees me, I don't call Brother Xiaoyi! I see that you are ignorant and pitiful, and you are kind enough to run over and dial you. ”
"Little B...... Brother" Ye Qi tried hard not to laugh, but this name is too interesting. Brother Xiaoyi, laugh one. I don't know, I thought he was molesting a man. Thinking of this, Ye Qi felt a chill in his heart.
Brother Xiao Yi nodded with satisfaction, and patted Ye Qi on the shoulder again. "Brother, seeing how sincere your name is, I'll tell you a little more. There is a teahouse in the north, and it is full of people who inquire about the news, and if you want to know any information, you can go there. The south side is the sale of goods, there are rare treasures, beasts and magic weapons, and elixirs. To the west is the residential area, where you can find inns to rest. ”
After listening to Brother Xiaoyi's words, Ye Qi nodded gratefully and thanked him. Although this person's name is not very good, and there is a sense of impropriety in his words, he is still a good person.
After Brother Xiao Yi finished speaking, he looked at Ye Qi with a firm gaze. "Brother, come on!" he said and left without looking back.
Seeing Brother Xiao Yi walking away, only then did someone sneak up and look at Ye Qi with sympathy. Ye Qi was a little hairy by him.
"Brother, do you see if the money in your money bag is less?"
Ye Qi took out the money bag suspiciously, and looked inside, it was really missing.
Seeing Ye Qi's expression, the man shook his head helplessly. "The city of chaos, called chaos. In fact, there is also order, that is, people who enter the city of chaos must not interfere with each other, there is no exchange of interests, and even money and property in front of you cannot be taken away. That little Brother Yi is guarding the gate of the city every day, just waiting to fool newcomers like you and tell you the news, which is equivalent to giving benefits, and he can collect money. ”
Ye Qi suddenly realized why everything on his body was still there after he fainted, at first he thought it was because the people in the chaotic city were simple, but he didn't expect there to be such a rule.
Thinking of this, Ye Qi was just about to open his mouth to thank the person who reminded him, but he saw that he also stretched out his hand to him. "You're ......"
"The news I just said is also charged. The man bared his white teeth and grinned. "Thanks for the patronage, in the next little rebellion. ”
“......”
As soon as they entered the chaotic city, they were cheated of money by two unscrupulous profiteers, but they also knew that they were restrained, and they did not kill them all, leaving some for Ye Qi so that they would not end up on the streets.
After listening to Brother Xiaoyi's introduction, Ye Qi decided to go to the West Street Inn to rest for a day first, and it was very uncomfortable to be disgraced after fleeing for so long.
Another day of rest, without worrying about being chased by a strong enemy, Ye Qi stood in the chaotic city again, and his whole person became refreshed.
Looking at the bustling street, he couldn't help but close his eyes and feel the feeling of being surrounded by bustle. This is a freshness that he has never felt on Shiwei Mountain.
The master didn't lie to me, only when I cultivate to a high level can I enjoy the excitement of the world.
"Come, let's let go, what are you doing standing in the middle of the road?" shouted the merchant, waking Ye Qi up from this feeling.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. He hurriedly walked to the side of the road, looking embarrassed. It's a shame to be so involved and forget that you're still standing in the middle of the road.
"Hehehe, Ye Qi, I said you can't escape the palm of my hand. At this time, Li Qi's haunting voice sounded again. It took him a few hours to rush away the truncated true qi, and he hurried all night without rest, finally finding Ye Qi's whereabouts and following him to the City of Chaos.
Ye Qi looked at Li Qi, who was standing beside him with a sneer on his face, and was speechless for a while. "Why are you laughing so happily, this is a chaotic city, you still dare to use force? Laughing so stupidly, it's just lowering the grade. ”
"You!" Richie choked at his mouth, his face flushed, and his beard shook up and down, as if he was venting his anger. "You want to provoke me, cunning boy, I won't fall for you again!"
It's actually getting smarter. Ye Qi saw that his emotions had calmed down again, shrugged helplessly, and suddenly said with a serious face: "Look at your dusty appearance, you are new to the City of Chaos, right?"
"So what? Don't you want to play any more tricks!"
"When you first arrived in the City of Chaos, there are some rules that you may not know yet, so I will kindly tell you about them. Ye Qi yawned, he slept so soundly yesterday, he hadn't been so comfortable for a long time.
"This chaotic city, there is a teahouse in the north, and it is full of people who inquire about the news, if you want to know any information, you can go there. The south side is the sale of goods, there are rare treasures, beasts and magic weapons, and elixirs. To the west is the residential area, where you can find inns to rest. ”
Li Qi looked at him vigilantly, puzzled: "You have such a good intention, tell me this, what is the intention?"
Ye Qi was full of evil smiles, stretched out his palms and spread them. "One more point, there are rules in the city of chaos, information belongs to the exchange of interests, give money~"
Li Qi took every precaution, but he didn't expect to catch Ye Qi's words, he jumped up angrily, pointed at Ye Qi's nose and scolded: "You treacherous junior, you dare to deceive me, see that I don't ......"
"The patrol in the city is coming, do you want to be kicked out or arrested?" Ye Qi asked in a playful tone.
Okay, you Ye Qi, I, Li Qi, and you are incompatible, with you and me, you can wait for me! Li Qi angrily threw the money bag into Ye Qi's hand, didn't look at him anymore, turned around and left.
Uh, I haven't finished talking about it yet, and you'll be gone as long as half a silver tael? Ye Qi looked at his angry back, weighed the money bag in his hand, and smiled brightly.
"Bang, bang!" In the crowd of people, someone clapped his palms and walked out.
Ye Qi looked up and walked over a young man of the same age. His long black hair, which is slightly messy, is tied up casually behind him, and his delicate and clean but not ordinary facial features reveal a warm atmosphere, which is matched with his sunny smile, which is eye-catching.
"Your Excellency's magic is twofold, and the master who dares to openly tease the threefold is not common even in the city of chaos, and his heroic posture is admirable. He stepped forward, bowed his hand to Ye Qi, and praised. "In the lower Duanmu Qiu, it is the son-in-law of the Duanmu family, and I am fortunate to be happy. ”
Duanmu Qiu said politely, coupled with his unobnoxious face, Ye Qi couldn't help but smile in return, and replied, "Fortunately!"
"Since we met, we are fate, why don't we go to the North Street Teahouse for a few drinks together?"
"Why not, Brother Duanmu, please. ”
"Please. ”
The two came to the teahouse together, called for tea, picked a quiet seat, and invited each other to sit down.
"It turned out to be Brother Ye, dare to ask Brother Ye if he is the son of the Ye family?"
"Ye family, no, under the sword immortal hall, this time there is a task to go down the mountain. ”
"Poof!" Duanmu Qiu almost didn't squirt out the tea in his mouth. "Brother Ye, don't want to bluff me, is it really a disciple of the Sword Immortal Palace?"
"How dare you, Brother Duanmu is righteous, sincerely invited, how could I deceive you. There are still many questions below, I want to ask Brother Duanmu, please don't charge. ”
Duanmu Qiu laughed even more when he saw Ye Qi's caution. "I didn't expect that with Brother Ye's ability, he was also pitted by Brother Xiao Yi and Xiao Rebel at the gate of the city, don't worry, just ask, my information here is all free. ”
Ye Qi was overjoyed when he saw Duanmu Qiu agree.
When he went out and went down the mountain, the master didn't explain the power of the sect to him at all, and the guy Li Qi said arrogantly how the Li family was, he was completely confused, and he had long wanted to find someone to ask, but unfortunately he had been running away and couldn't find a chance. Now is an opportunity.
"Brother Duanmu......"
"Call me Duanmu, I'll also call you Ye, save some politeness. ”
Ye Qi also doesn't like to be polite with people, Duanmu Qiu's words are exactly what he wants. "Won't I suffer a loss? Wood, let's call you wood. ”
Duanmu Qiu smiled bitterly, and his handsome face was even more seductive, causing many female monks in the teahouse to look at this side one after another, which made Ye Qi feel pressured.
"If you want to call the leaves, call it. ”
"Wood, is the Li family very powerful?" Ye Qi asked first when he opened his mouth, and it was Li Qi who chased and killed him.
"Just like I just asked you if you are a descendant of the Ye family, there are sixteen major forces in the righteous path, and the Li family, the Ye family, and the Duanmu family all belong to one of them. And the Sword Immortal Hall you mentioned just now is even more amazing, it is the head of the nine sects of decency, so I thought you were bluffing me. ”
"I see, the nine sects and sixteen families are all righteous forces, why is the Li family so arrogant. Not to mention conniving at his brother to be a robber, Li Qi also threatened that what the Li family does is justified, and he dares to do so?"
Duanmu Qiu shook his head, with a look on his too innocent expression.
"Ye Zi, you just came out of the Sword Immortal Palace, the outside world is not as described in the book, or as you imagined, there is an obvious distinction between good and evil. Some are decent, but they are doing things like demons on the surface, and even colluding with them, while some of them are stable, and ordinary people live and work in peace and contentment.
"This ......" Duanmu Qiu's words were like stormy waves, Ye Qi's heart fluctuated when he heard it, but he couldn't help but be convinced.
Because he thought of Li Kui of the two ghosts of Xihua Mountain, and thought of Feng Yan who was in the same stream as the Snake King of the Western Regions, or those mercenary righteous people who besieged him in the town. "This world is wonderful, why should they do this, isn't it good for An An to share some?"
“**。 Duanmu Qiu hit the nail on the head. "**Endless, cultivation is**, if you cultivate to the first level of the Fa Jue, do you want to break through to the second level? What about you to the second level? Everyone, each position, and different realms have different **, it's just a matter of high and low. As long as it is beneficial to oneself, there is a fight. ”
"**?" Ye Qi is from himself to others, isn't he also cultivating to the point of thinking twice and cultivating the path to the second level? It turns out that it is not that others are restless, but that cultivation is not a peaceful thing in the first place.
He understood in his heart that his understanding of the world had undergone a new change.
"It's really better to listen to your words than to read for ten years. Wood, you are really very wise, very smart, and worthy of being everyone's son. ”
Duanmu Qiu waved his hand again and again, and excused himself: "You can understand the leaves at one point, and your understanding is even more amazing." There is also the courage to openly fight back against enemies who are higher than their own cultivation, and their courage is extraordinary, which I really admire. ”
Seeing Duanmu Qiu's compliment, Ye Qi also turned red, and said a little embarrassedly: "Where is my courage, it's just a broken jar." Actually, in addition to Li Qi, there are also two people in the Demon Gate who have three magic tricks and are also chasing and killing me. ”
"Oh?"
