Chapter 141: All Ordinary Things
The three of them are not low, Ling Xuan guessed that Xu Yan and the others were at least above the early stage of their out-of-body cultivation, and they were thousands of miles away, but it was only about an hour of kung fu.
Overlooking from the sky, it can be seen that the scale of this city is very large, the magnificent four city walls are like four giant dragons, sleeping around a dense tall building, firmly guarding the safety of the city, not leaking, magnificent; above the four city gates, the flags are waving, and countless silver-armored soldiers are standing on the city wall like a strong pine, majestic and solemn, and the air is shaking in all directions.
Most of the houses and buildings in the city are large, magnificent buildings, like spider webs covering the streets of the city, crowded with people, and it is very lively.
It was also the first time for Ling Xuan to see such a majestic large city, and when he looked at it from afar, his mood was excited, his blood was boiling, and he was eager to integrate into it. And Xu Yan and Zhu Xiao couldn't help but speed up and fly away, but they still kept a little sanity, knowing that they would find a remote and uninhabited place before they landed, and if the sword appeared directly in many places in the city, this shocking move might immediately cause a riot~ Riot.
After retracting the flying sword, the two of them ran to the city gate with cheers, ignoring Ling Xuan's obstruction behind him, he had to follow helplessly.
The city gate is very wide, enough to accommodate three carriages side by side, people come and go, cars come and go, very spectacular, on both sides of the city gate, there are eight silver-armored soldiers to maintain order, they are holding red cherry spears, standing motionless, solemn expressions, the breeze is dignified, people are awe-inspired, do not dare to give birth to any bad heart.
In the center above the city gate, there are three vigorous characters carved like a dragon and a phoenix: Nangong City.
Ling Xuan was slightly taken aback, and faintly linked it with the largest family in the northwest, the Nangong family.
Xu Yan and Zhu Xiao were looking left and right, as if they were eager to enter the city in the blink of an eye, they were very excited, and naturally they didn't notice the small concerns that Ling Xuan inadvertently revealed.
Xu Yan looked around in a novel way and said: "It is said that this city is owned by the Nangong family, the largest family in the northwest, and it is majestic. ”
Zhu Xiao continued: "Well, I heard that Nangong Xuanlun, the son of Nangong Yuntian, the head of the contemporary Nangong family, was fortunate to worship my Erji Sect as an outer disciple in his early years, and this year he is going to participate in the inner disciple selection competition. Senior brother, do you think we should go to Nangong Yuntian and ask him to send us some fireworks?"
Ling Xuan shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said, "The two senior brothers in the Immortal Sect have already come out of the dust, and they don't want to be mortal, but they know a lot about mortal things, and they admire it. ”
Xu Yan said with a smile: "Senior Brother Bian smiled, I also recently inquired about it." ”
While talking, the three of them entered the city, but they were amazed to see the traffic in the city, the crowds of people, and a noisy heat wave rushing towards them.
Xu Yan and Zhu Xiao cheered, and then plunged into the flow of people, running left and right, curious about all kinds of fancy goods sold by roadside merchants, looking here from time to time, from time to time, smiling like two innocent children.
Ling Xuan followed them closely, looking left and right, he had a faint sense of ominousness in his heart, as if something bad was about to happen, but he didn't know what it was, this kind of crisis came but he couldn't see the real feeling with a white veil, which made him very uncomfortable, and he was naturally not in the mood to play.
After playing happily for a while, Zhu Xiao remembered the main purpose of this place and asked, "Senior Brother Bian, do you know where the fireworks are here?"
Ling Xuan was secretly worried about what would happen next, and without thinking about what he said, he casually pointed to a magnificent building on the left, and between the doors and attics, there were many scantily dressed gorgeous women holding silk scarves, waving to passers-by in a coquettish manner. He casually said, "That should be." ”
The two of them were overjoyed, and before they could think about it, they ran towards the women at the door, Ling Xuan was shocked, and hurriedly grabbed them left and right, and said, "Two senior brothers, do you really want to go in?"
Xu Yan said as a matter of course: "That's natural, otherwise, why did we come all the way here?"
Recalling that when he was a child hunting with Uncle Zhang, he was bored and accidentally mentioned to himself the 'Fireworks Land', Ling Xuan blushed a little, and said, "With all due respect, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate for the two senior brothers to go in like this." ”
Zhu Xiao was impatient, shook him off and ran forward, and said, "Just buy some fireworks, what does it look like?"
Xu Yan also shook him off and chased after him, and soon, the two of them were entangled left and right by the woman standing at the door to greet the guests and walked in, Ling Xuan stayed on the spot, unable to advance or retreat.
Just when he didn't know what to do, it was just a moment before the two of them stumbled and rushed out of the door, already red-faced, passing by Ling Xuan's side, Xu Yan shouted in a low voice: "Senior Brother Bian, run away." ”
The two of them didn't dare to stay for a moment, and fled in the wilderness. Ling Xuan was stunned and stood in place, at this time, a middle-aged woman who looked like an old bustard chased out at the door of the 'land of fireworks', stood at the door with her hands on her waist, and scolded violently: "Stinky Taoist, if you don't have any money, you still learn to go down to the Qinglou, and when you are an old lady, do you eat white food here!"
Ling Xuan suddenly, he couldn't help laughing, the old bustard glared at him when he heard the sound, there seemed to be a cold murderous aura in the air, and it went straight to the bottom of his heart, he couldn't help but shiver, turned around and ran, chasing after the two of them.
Fleeing from the place of right and wrong, the three of them slowed down, Xu Yan and Zhu Xiao pretended to be casual, raised their heads and chests, and strode forward, Ling Xuan saw this, he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and the expression on his face was very strange.
After walking for a while, he couldn't help it, and said, "Two senior brothers......"
Zhu Xiao's expression was serious, his expression was cold, and he waved his hand to interrupt: "Needless to say, no one is allowed to spread this matter, let alone reveal half a word to Dacui, otherwise...... Otherwise, kill him!"
Ling Xuan didn't say much anymore, and at this moment, an unkempt beggar suddenly jumped out on the side of the road, and suddenly hugged Xu Yan's legs. ”
The three of them were stunned for a moment, exhaled a big breath, and immediately looked at the beggar, but saw that although he was unkempt, dirty and ugly, he was not very old. At the same time, they saw that above the beggar's head, there was a faint glow shrouded in light, and the eyebrows were faintly revealing the atmosphere of great wealth and nobility.
Xu Yan broke away from his hands and said, "Beggar, we, we don't have any silver, you better go to another place to ask for it." ”
The beggar didn't know that the three of them were really hidden in the blessed land of the immortals, only if they were swaggering and deceiving gods, but today, the situation is turbulent, the peaks and smoke are everywhere, and demons and monsters are rampant, and it is often them who are the most popular crooks who make up nonsense, who goes out and doesn't have dozens of taels of silver on them?
The beggar thought so in his heart, and continued to plead: "Three immortals, have mercy on me, I am old and young, and the family depends on me for a living, and now we have not entered for a few days, and I have a rotten life, and I will die when I die, but I pity my octogenarian mother, who is not filial to her child, and has not let her eat a full meal and enjoy a day of happiness." ”
He said pitifully, tears flowed down his face, and all three of them were full of compassion, but they really didn't even have a penny on them. Ling Xuan helped him up and said, "You are not a thing in the pool, why are you willing to be a subordinate?" Get up, we do not have any silver on us, but I can tell you that in the near future, you will definitely be able to fly to the sky, fly on the branches and travel in the sky, and your old mother will definitely be able to follow you to enjoy the wealth of the world. ”
The beggar stared at him blankly, and after a long time, said, "Is this true?"
Zhu Xiao nodded and said, "Half a word is true." ”
At this time, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd in front of him, and a group of more than a dozen strong men with red scarves on their heads came through the crowd, looking up to the sky and shouting sadly: "Fellow villagers, fathers and elders, now the faint monarch is in charge, tyranny ~ government harms the people, drought year after year, spring can not be ploughed, autumn can not be harvested, now there are no more particles in the farmers' homes, but the court is turning a blind eye, we have no way to live." Dear villagers, fathers and elders, for the sake of the wives and children at home, and for the sake of a full meal in the high hall of the house, let us join the Red Turban Army, let us unite together, and seek justice from the imperial court. ”
