Chapter XXVII
There are many shops on both sides of the south street of Cangbi City, and the stalls of some small traders even occupy the corners of the street, and the sound of selling is endless, which seems to be extremely prosperous and lively.
Chen Feng and Qiao Xueqing, who was dressed as a man, walked on the street and looked around, laughing and talking from time to time, and they were in a very comfortable mood.
With the disappearance of the desolate forbidden land, the Fang Market, which was somewhat deserted in the south of Cangbi City in the past, also began to prosper.
The whole Cangbi City is divided into four areas: east, west, north and south, where the Dongcheng District is located, there are mostly some rich and noble families, the most representative is the Chen family.
Compared with the high-rise mansions and compounds in the eastern district, there are many uneven bungalows in the western district, which are inhabited by poor families such as handymen and small merchants and hawkers who are engaged in the lowest level of work.
The officials living in the northern district of Cangbi City, as long as they look at the style and size of the residence, can judge the level of their status and official position, and the most eye-catching is the city lord's mansion and military camp.
As for the south of the city, it is where the business shops gather, and the entire Fang City is jointly managed by the City Lord's Mansion, the Chen clan, and the Tiansha Gang.
Looking at some young masters and ladies with status on the street, they all took their servants with them when they went out, enjoying the service of the subordinates before and after the saddle, Chen Feng couldn't help but feel a little envious in his heart.
Although more than ten days have passed since the Chen family's big competition, Chen Hao, Chen Xiao, and Fan Lianrong, the three children with extraordinary talents, are still the talk of many upper-class elites after dinner.
In contrast, Chen Feng's image of a force with a big shield and a plate axe has become a laughing stock for some people.
Although there were also some powerful people from small sects, they found Chen Feng and expressed their willingness to accept him as a disciple of the outer sect, but they were all politely rejected by him.
The Chen family's letter riding camp, as early as the second day of the family competition, had all been dispatched to visit various sects of the Great Yan Dynasty to recommend the younger brothers of the Chen family.
If you don't mention Chen Hao's three talented children, it can be said that the entire Xinqi battalion is carrying the hope of the Chen family's future.
On that day, Chen Hong, the head of the family, personally went out of the city to see him off, and marched for the two hundred elite horsemen of the Xinqi camp.
Compared with the busyness of the sect after the Chen family's big comparison, Chen Feng has been squinting in his small courtyard for more than ten days, but it seems to be very calm.
In addition to not dealing with each other with Tu Dasheng, and often having verbal friction, Chen Feng's small life was quite peaceful.
Together with Qiao Xueqing, he killed the bald man in the early stage of Tongxuan, Chen Feng paid attention to the movements of the Tiansha Gang for several days, and found that this incident did not cause much reaction from the Tiansha Gang, so he gradually relaxed his mind.
However, because of the news, there was something that made Chen Feng think.
Since the disappearance of the desolate forbidden land, not only the Cangbi Grassland and Cangbi City, but also the entire Great Yan Dynasty have shown majestic vitality, without the influence of the desolate disaster, the aura between heaven and earth in the Great Yan Dynasty has been much richer in the past two years.
The Great Yan Dynasty, which was originally barren and chicken-ribbed, was thriving while the environment changed, but it was watched by some surrounding countries.
With the news of the frequent appearance of spiritual veins in the Great Yan Dynasty, the cultivation momentum outside some dynasties has begun to show signs of snatching the Cave Heaven Blessed Land.
Many people set out from Cangbi City, while exploring the vast Cangbi grassland, they also discovered the army of the Great Xia Dynasty in the depths of the Cangbi grassland, although this news did not spread, but it attracted the attention of the Great Yan Dynasty and some powerful people in Cangbi City.
In the past, when the barren forbidden land was still there, together with the vast Cangsha Desert, it was like a moat separating the two dynasties of Dayan and Daxia, and at this time, the Cangsha Desert turned into a green grassland, which made the situation between the two dynasties tense.
Because of the relationship between the Chen family, Chen Feng even learned that the Tiansha Gang, one of the three powerful forces in Cangbi City, had been secretly supported by the Immortal Cultivation Sect in the Great Xia Dynasty in the past two years.
The turbulent crisis of the dark tide did not make Chen Feng worried, but made him secretly excited in his heart, and his greed and adventurous thoughts raised his head.
"What are you thinking?"
Seeing that Chen Feng was absent-minded, but with a smile on his face, Qiao Xueqing couldn't help but ask.
Chen Feng browsed the lively scene on the street, with an expectant smile in his eyes: "I don't know how long the prosperity of Cangbi City can last!"
"The reason why you didn't leave for the Yuansheng Dynasty is that you are planning something?" Qiao Xueqing asked keenly.
"The peaceful and prosperous era is naturally good, but a small character like us can only find opportunities in troubled times, the reason why I didn't go to the Yuansheng Dynasty with my fourth aunt immediately before was mainly to see if I could help Chen Meng get the opportunity to reshape his talents, but Ji Lu's plan has not changed quickly, and now it seems that staying in Cangbi City for the time being may have greater benefits." Chen Feng's eyes were full of thieves, and he lowered his head and snickered.
In the troubled times, in Qiao Xueqing's opinion, Chen Feng did not look like a cultivator at all, but like a conspiracy magnate in the court.
"Two days ago, the Zongfu sent a letter to you, saying that you have time to go back, and it is estimated that the Chen family's 'sending immortals' should have a clear result. Qiao Xueqing reminded Chen Feng.
"Instead of looking forward to being able to benefit from the family, I am more interested in the City Lord's Mansion, and besides, I don't want to participate in the bad things of the Chen family. Chen Feng laughed.
Qiao Xueqing glanced at Chen Feng in surprise: "What do you mean by this?"
"I have understood, Cangbi City Lord Yan Qianqiu, is the royal family of the Great Yan Dynasty, and his status is precious, if it weren't for the suspicious nature of Emperor Yan today, Yan Qianqiu would not have been placed in Cangbi City at all, like such a big man with status, I should be close to him, if there is really any change in Cangbi City in the future, I can't say that he will be a person who has the final say. Chen Feng smiled and winked at Qiao Xueqing.
"Is it just you?"
Qiao Xueqing smiled and teased Chen Feng.
Compared with the turbulent tide of the current situation in the dynasty, Qiao Xueqing was even more curious about Chen Feng's calculations.
"Little people can sometimes exert great energy, take a good look and see if you can find something suitable for Yan Qianqiu's daughter Shui Linggen, this is your strength. Chen Feng looked like a good man.
Hearing Chen Feng's statement, Qiao Xueqing was a little stunned at first, and then cast a contemptuous look at him.
"A shady guy like you is simply a product that can't afford to make a profit, Bajie City Lord Yan Qianqiu, you should have a plan, right?" Qiao Xueqing asked Chen Feng with a smile while observing some strange items on the stalls on both sides of the street.
"Actually, it's good to be a corpse picker, I've inquired, now the corpse picker in Cangbi City is an important member of the Tiansha Gang, I'm thinking about giving him a top, and wait to see if I can get anything." Chen Feng looked forward to it.
Until this time, Qiao Xueqing completely understood what Chen Feng was paying attention to, and couldn't help but be secretly surprised by his thoughts.
Most cultivators have treasure hunting and exploration as their main goal, and it is indeed rare for a guy like Chen Feng to focus on making war fortunes.
"Are you looking forward to a war between dynasties?"
Although Qiao Xueqing had already guessed, she couldn't help but confirm to Chen Feng.
"With the strength of the Great Xia Dynasty and the prosperity of the soldiers, in the case of the disappearance of the desolate and forbidden land, it will not remain silent for a long time, once it crosses the grassland with millions of soldiers every day, Cangbi City will definitely bear the brunt of the changes, this ancient city looks inconspicuous, but it is the strongest barrier west of the Great Yan Dynasty, and the most important thing is that several other countries adjacent to the Great Yan Dynasty are not too large, and the end can be said to be a trigger that moves the whole body. Chen Feng seemed a little interested.
"As far as the little thing you have, you also want to please Yan Qianqiu? When the time comes, once Cangbi City is not guaranteed, even if you become a corpse picker, I am afraid that it will be a loss-making deal. Qiao Xueqing glared at Chen Feng and said.
"It's really long hair and short knowledge, when the time comes, are you afraid that you won't have a chance? It's because the funds are not very abundant, so I asked you to see if you can find a treasure. Chen Feng carefully looked at the items on the stalls.
"That one at home, what are you going to do?" Qiao Xueqing seemed to remember something, and asked Chen Feng with a smile.
"Are you talking about that mother-in-law who Tu Dayan? Now that she is being chased and killed by the Tiansha Gang, she doesn't even dare to show her face, if the affairs of the Tiansha Gang can be solved in the future, she can develop into a gang member and let her run errands and do some hard work. Chen Feng's stinky fart surged upward.
"I'm afraid she won't listen to you. Qiao Xueqing glanced at Chen Feng with a smile.
"That stinky woman is against me at every turn, if it weren't for the lack of manpower, and the fact that she is a holy barbarian, I would have killed her long ago, and sometimes I wonder if I should feed her some poison and give her some color. Chen Feng said with an annoyed expression.
Seeing Chen Feng muttering dissatisfied, Qiao Xueqing couldn't help but laugh out loud: "If you want to control her, do you still need to give her poison?" As long as you plant the Desolate Spirit Seed in her body, no matter whether she is an ancient bloodline or a holy barbarian body, she can only obey obediently." ”
"Isn't that cruel? Even though the stinky woman was rude, I really couldn't do it. Chen Feng had a shy smile on his face.
Although Qiao Xueqing slandered Chen Feng's belly, on the surface, she was silent in front of a stall, picked up a ring with a disordered metal pattern and looked at it.
Discovering Qiao Xueqing's actions, and seeing that the stall owner of the bearded old man was not enthusiastic at all, Chen Feng didn't speak anymore, and narrowed his eyes like a little follower.
Although he only glanced at the ring in Qiao Xueqing's hand, Chen Feng felt that the disorderly pattern of the black ring had a sense of simplicity, and the ring also faintly exuded a desolate atmosphere.
On the streets south of Cangbi City, cultivators dressed in fancy clothes are very common, and there are many small stalls set up by vendors on the streets.
In front of these stalls, it wasn't uncommon for people to take a look and ask a few words in a low voice, but there weren't many people who actually bought cultivation items.
Unlike the shops on both sides of the street that are made of extremely precious wood and large blocks of golden sandstone, most of the small stalls on the street have a lot of strange things that people can't call for it.
