"Fire Cloud City!"
On the tall city gate, three quaint characters shimmered like flames in the sun. Lin Changsheng stood outside the city www.biquge.info with a sigh on his face. In four or five years, everything has changed, and the once small county town has completely lost its old appearance.
The outside of the city wall has been expanded, and it looks taller and more majestic, and people below, looking up, are all amazed. Walking into the city gate, there is a city cave nearly ten meters long, as soon as you come out, you will hear the sound of lively hustle and bustle.
Looking left and right, the archway with a height of nearly 10 meters stands on both sides, and there is a wide street next to each side, and the horse-drawn carriages entering the city mostly go to the right, while some large carts carrying goods go to the left.
With a slight glance, he thought of the wholesale market in Huazi City, and the street on the left should be such a market.
Walking forward for a while, Lin Changsheng gasped, and was shocked in his heart by what the Fire Refining Sect had done - it turned out that the original county seat had not been demolished, but was included in it.
Just look at this small city again, compared to the outer city wall, it is like a mound, without features.
As he got closer, he saw that there were many more holes in the city wall, which were open passages, connecting the inside and outside. Lin Changsheng was amazed, this Fire Refining Sect is really a great spirit.
He made a quick turn, and then entered a tavern, listening to the conversation of the people around him. After four or five years of hard work, many things have changed here, not only the city, but also the people.
In the past, everyone talked mostly about the fire refining gate, as well as the resistance and fighting in various places. But now, these things are long gone. What everyone is talking about is more about the latest events.
And the most eye-catching thing is Wentai's death.
Wentai has been dead for a while, but the news is still not hot, a congenital master, there is no trace of him, how can it not be surprising. In the whole world, how many innate masters are there? Not to mention every year, I am afraid that not one will die in ten years. Now that there is such one, everyone naturally has a heated discussion.
After listening for a while, Lin Changsheng walked out and wandered around the street again. He entered the inner city, and as soon as he entered, he saw an attic that was a large section higher than other buildings, and when he walked in, he saw that there were three big characters written on it: "Fire Dance Pavilion".
The Fire Dance Pavilion is the most representative industry under the Fire Refining Gate. In modern terms, these schools of industry are boutiques and grocery stores. For example, the shop that Lin Changsheng went to in Huazi City, it was a stronghold-shaped grocery store, and the Fire Dance Pavilion was the boutique of the Fire Refining Gate, and the moving west in it was mostly the specialty of the Fire Refining Gate, even if there were other things, it was also a good product.
Lin Changsheng had also heard of the name of this kind of boutique, but he had never entered it, he was interested at this time, and walked in leisurely.
As soon as I entered, I felt that the surroundings were very empty, there were many people, and there were people in front of each counter, but it did not seem crowded at all. He glanced twice, there were six counters, each with a product.
Lin Changsheng walked to the left, stood in front of a counter, and swept aside, there were three categories: elixirs, medicinal materials, and curiosities.
Everyone understands that the curiosities here are similar to grass and bamboo, which can be used as medicine and health care products, wrapping animals and plants.
He stood in front of the treasure counter, looked at the various items inside, and secretly sighed, it is worthy of the fire refining door, there are more than a dozen kinds of treasures in this small counter, and the grass and bamboo are placed inside.
"One, two, three...... Thirteen, thirteen sections......" He was even more amazed, and said, "Man, how do you sell these thirteen sections of grass and bamboo?"
The guy was greeting another person, listening to his inquiry, and said with a smile: "Guest officer, I promise a favor of eight thousand taels." ”
"Eight thousand taels ......" Lin Changsheng took a cool breath, his nine sections of grass and bamboo were only five hundred taels, this thing had doubled so much, it was too expensive! After thinking about it, he still couldn't help but be curious, and said, "Give me one." ”
The man's smile became even brighter, and he immediately pulled out one from below, Lin Changsheng gave him a silver ticket, and took the thirteen sections of grass and bamboo to look at it carefully. It doesn't look like it's any different from the Nine Sections.
The guy saw that he was looking seriously, and saw that the man on the side was still watching, so he explained: "Guest officer, there are four kinds of grass and bamboo, which are divided into three sections, seven sections, nine sections, and thirteen sections, and the three sections are only ten taels, which are very cheap, except for the taste, and the effect is not great; the good point of the seven sections is fifty taels; the nine sections are considered to be of the highest grade, and they cost three hundred taels, and the effect is remarkable; these thirteen sections are the most precious, and the growth period is nine years, and they must be eradicated within three days after maturity, otherwise they will deteriorate." Don't look at him as expensive, but the effect is extremely strong, and it is not comparable to the nine sections. ”
Lin Changsheng nodded slightly, he was even more curious in his heart, aimed at one end, and with a light touch of his finger, he penetrated the inner joint and destroyed the other end. Putting it in his mouth, he took a sip, frowned, and said strangely: "Why is there no taste?"
The guy immediately explained: "Guest officer, I forgot to say it. Although the thirteen sections of grass and bamboo are precious, they are like white water, and they have no taste at all, but the effect is excellent. ”
Lin Changsheng nodded, and when the liquid entered his abdomen, he felt a warm feeling spread, and when he experienced it carefully, the warmth turned into clear again, and it was cool all over his body, making him feel excited, and it was very comfortable.
It doesn't taste good, but it feels great!
"Good thing!" he exclaimed, his gaze falling on the other curiosities. Most of the things here have heard the names and eaten some cheap ones, but compared to the treasures, they are obviously completely different.
He touched his arms, smiled slightly, and said, "Man, there is another one of the thirteen sections of grass and bamboo, as well as this five-colored fruit, burnt root, and potpourri dew, give me a copy each." ”
The guy was even more pleased, and said with a smile: "Okay, good, good ......" He quickly took out the things and put them in front of Lin Changsheng one by one. And Lin Changsheng also took out the accumulated silver ticket and handed it to him.
This was his last possession in the past few years, but he didn't feel heartache when he saw those few treasures.
With his wrapped items in hand, he walked around several other counters. Seeing this, he regretted it a little, he knew that he wouldn't buy these treasures, he wanted too many things here.
"Forget it, I don't have any money this time, I'll come back next time. After comforting himself, he immediately walked out. If he stays any longer, he feels that he can't help but grab this place.
Turning a street, Lin Changsheng paused, with a meaningful smile on his face. He said to himself, "Is this being targeted?
Entering an inn, he booked a room, ordered some food and drink, and went straight in. took out the treasures he bought, Lin Changsheng was not polite, and devoured them in a big gulp.
Truth be told, the utility of these things is of no use to him, only to satisfy his appetite. It's not worth it, but in the face of these things, he became a nouveau riche. Maybe someone else will do the same. This nouveau riche mood is very ordinary.
After staying comfortably all night, Lin Changsheng went to the street again early the next morning and continued to wander. When he walked to a shop, he suddenly thought that although he had no money, the grass and bamboo he harvested could be sold for a lot of money.
Thinking of this, he laughed, immediately walked into the store, and asked, "Man, look at these nine sections of grass and bamboo, how much can they be sold for?"
The guy glanced at it and immediately called the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper swept it, looked at Lin Changsheng again, and said, "Three hundred taels." ”
Lin Changsheng frowned and said, "Shopkeeper, this thing is generally sold for five hundred taels." ”
The shopkeeper smiled: "That's good quality." You look like you grow it yourself, but it's not as good as those that are grown all year round?"
Lin Changsheng couldn't deny it, and said, "That's not okay either." ”
The shopkeeper frowned, looked at him again, seemed to hesitate, and said, "In that case, how about three hundred and five? I can go out of the island at most so high." ”
Lin Changsheng thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay." He took out the remaining five and sold them to him. Obviously, he walked out of the city quickly, wanting to take out other plants and bamboos and sell them for money.
Not far from the city gate, Lin Changsheng turned off the path, saw that there was no one around, turned around, saw the two people behind him, and said, "You two, I've been with me for a day, don't you want to say something?"
The two glanced at each other, and one of them snorted coldly and said, "You bastard, I thought you would go out of the city directly after buying something, and I didn't want to stay overnight and waste my uncle's time." Without further ado, hand over your belongings and belongings. ”
Lin Changsheng looked at them with amusement, probably the two of them would not have thought that they would eat everything in one night. That's right, this kind of waste is only done by people who satisfy their appetites.
He grinned and said, "If you want something, take it yourself." ”
"How daring!" the other shouted, sprang forward and punched him in the abdomen. Lin Changsheng looked at his punch, shook his head and said, "It's too self-sufficient to want to rob the uncle with such ability." ”
He stretched out his hand and grabbed it, and immediately pinched the man's fist, and with a little force, a click sounded, and the man screamed in pain, and his body went limp, and he fell to his knees. The other person was shocked and shouted, "Boy, stop it, aren't you afraid of the rules of the Fire Refining Sect?"
Lin Changsheng sneered and said, "The rules of his Fire Refining Sect can't be controlled by the master. As he spoke, his arm shook, and the man trembled, and the whole person fell to the ground as if he had no bones.
He was horrified, he didn't want Lin Changsheng to say that he would kill people, and he didn't even hesitate at all. He was so frightened that he didn't want to, and turned around to run away. Lin Changsheng stroked his left hand, and a touch of energy shot out instantly, piercing his chest in the blink of an eye. His eyes widened, his mouth slightly open, as if frightened and dazed, and he slammed into the ground.
Lin Changsheng smiled disdainfully and strode away. (To be continued.) )
