I fly with a sword in the magic academy
Chapter 166 Tai'an City (Part )
"Rumble"
There was a sound in the distance, and dozens of wild beasts came galloping through the dust, almost trampling over the heads of the pedestrians.
It has to be said that these people are very arrogant. They are walking like animals, only a few meters above the ground, passing over the heads of pedestrians. This is a very offending behavior.
"That seems to be a member of the Gui family, right? The ostentation is really grand." Someone on Qingshi Avenue made a dissatisfied grunt.
"Say less, otherwise trouble will come from your mouth."
"Children from these aristocratic families want to think they are superior to others, just get used to it."
Someone offered some kind words and advice.
"I heard that some time ago, there was a conflict between a descendant of the Gui family and a descendant of a demon king in Tai'an City, and he was almost beaten to death. Judging from the attitude of these people in the Hui family, they are probably going to go and regain the situation. This There will be a good show to watch next time." Someone sneered.
Listening to the comments of the pedestrians, Jiang Yue couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "Taian City is really a place where storms gather."
Half an hour later, a majestic ancient city came into view. It was very large and majestic. From a distance, it looked like a giant dragon crawling on the ground, crossing the horizon and bordering the horizon.
Getting closer, seven city gates come into view, like seven gods standing side by side with swords. Each gate tower is nearly a thousand meters high and majestic, giving people a sense of visual oppression.
The city is very prosperous. Various splendid buildings such as Qionglou and Yuyu, Immortal Palace and Miaoque... are lined on both sides of the open streets. They are extremely luxurious and charming.
"It is indeed the most prosperous ancient city in Huangzhou." Jiang Yue sighed.
Every corner of the city is full of luxury, the streets are full of people coming and going, the flow is endless, and various rainbow lights pass across the sky from time to time.
There is a saying that if you pick up a random person on the streets of Tai'an City, the person might be a powerful person with a well-known name.
Unknowingly, Jiang Yue came to a quiet and peaceful place. Although this ancient street was spacious, there were only a few pedestrians.
There are old locust trees with lush branches planted on both sides of the street. The thick trunks of the trees cannot be hugged by four or five people standing together. Most of the sunlight is blocked, making the place look a bit shady.
After walking forward for some distance, Jiang Yue came to a palace. This palace occupied one-third of the street. It was very large, but it was overgrown with weeds. Most of the pavilions and palaces were The roads were covered with weeds and vines, and it seemed that few people had been there.
Jiang Yue was a little surprised that in such a prosperous ancient city like Tai'an City, there was such a desolate place that no one cared about.
"Rotten...rotten...residence?"
An old wooden sign hung on an ancient tree in front of the palace garden, with the three characters "Decay Residence" crookedly written on it.
Jiang Yue stopped for a moment, and finally walked in out of curiosity. This palace covered a large area, but most of the area was submerged by weeds and thorns. Even some buildings had collapsed into ruins and broken walls. Ruins and rubble were scattered all over the place.
Suddenly, Jiang Yue paused, and right in front of her, on a large rock that looked like a lying cow, sat a stooped, white-haired old man.
The old man was wearing simple and rough cloth, with gray hair, wrinkles on his face piled up like mountains, and a pair of turbid old eyes that were lifeless.
"Girl, do you want to buy a spiritual stone?" The old man just raised his eyes and glanced at Jiang Yue before continuing to close his eyes and rest.
His body was like a dead tree, old and skinny, and he looked extremely frail, almost exhausted.
Jiang Yue didn't expect that there were still people living here. What surprised her even more was that there was actually a couple selling spiritual stones here.
"Well, I just happened to be passing by and took a look." Jiang Yue nodded, took out a thousand middle-grade spiritual stones from the storage ring and placed them in front of the old man, saying: "I have just arrived in Tai'an City. I don't know what the market is like here. Is the admission fee up to standard?”
The old man did not open his eyes, but shook his head slightly and said, "The stones here are not valuable, so I won't use so much."
"It doesn't matter, just think of it as the younger generation honoring you." Jiang Yue smiled.
The old man didn't shirk anymore and said: "Look carefully. If you are lucky, you may be able to find some rare treasures."
After a pause, he added: "There happens to be a peerless person inside selecting rough stones. You can follow him and take a look."
Jiang Yue bowed her hands and then walked deeper through the weeds. Before she had gone far, she saw a familiar figure.
In front, an old Taoist man wearing an ancient Taoist robe was squatting in front of a pile of stones and carefully selecting them.
"The white ghost is asking for his life?!" Jiang Yue almost shouted out, recognizing the old Taoist in front of him at a glance.
After the last change in Wuji Mountain, she asked Sikong Qing about this person. He was a ruthless person that even the Xuanmen Holy Land and aristocratic families were not willing to offend easily. The white ghost was asking for his life!
No one knows his name, and no one even knows where he learned his skills.
People who are close to him jokingly call him [White Ghost], because as long as someone offends him, he will wear a white shroud that is so white that night to kill everyone, and there are many more [White Ghost Asking for Life] ] Such a bad name.
Just some time ago, this white ghost, Li Shangyun and other thieves, almost succeeded in killing the leader of Wuyang Mountain, causing quite a sensation in Sanqian Daozhou.
Jiang Yue didn't expect to meet this ruthless man here again, and at the same time, she couldn't help but feel surprised that this peerless person would come here to pick out the spiritual stones. This also showed that the Decay Residence was not simple.
White Ghost Suoming just glanced this way and didn't say much.
Jiang Yue was frightened. She knew that the "Phaseless Method" would be seen through at a glance and would not have any effect in front of such a peerless figure standing on the top of a mountain.
But then I thought about it, I didn't seem to have offended the other party, and there was nothing to be afraid of even if the phantom body was seen through. After all, a big shot like this couldn't just attack her without any reason, right?
Thinking of this, she relaxed a lot and began to examine carefully in front of a pile of stones.
Not long after, Bai Gui Suoming picked out a dozen ordinary-looking stones and piled them in front of the old man who was sitting cross-legged on the Wo Niu Stone with his eyes closed and meditating.
Just when he was about to deliver the spiritual stone for purchase, he seemed to notice something and suddenly turned around and stared at a certain direction.
"You're here and you want to run away?!" He shouted coldly, an extremely depressing aura filled his body, and then he flashed and disappeared in an instant.
The old man sitting cross-legged on the Wo Niu Stone opened his cloudy old eyes, looked into the distance for a few times, then looked at Jiang Yue not far away, and said: "Girl, why don't you just buy these stones?" , you don’t need to spend more time picking, since the person just now didn’t really buy it anyway.”
Jiang Yue was stunned when she heard this. Are you sure you won't be resented if you cut off your beard like this?
She smiled awkwardly and said, "I'd better wait and see."
She had never dealt with this white ghost Suo Ming. She didn't know what his temperament was, and she really didn't dare to touch what he liked.
But after half a day, the sun was setting and night was approaching, but the white ghost had not returned yet. Jiang Yue felt that the other party would not come back, so after thinking about it, she decided to use the low price of 600 medium-grade spiritual stones. I bought those stones and started unraveling them directly.
The first six pieces were all waste stones, and nothing was cut out. But when she started to open the seventh piece, an intoxicating fragrance filled the air.
"Is this... something really cut out?" Jiang Yue was surprised. There must be something rare and rare inside this piece of raw spiritual stone!
"What kind of rare thing could it be?" Jiang Yue was excited and began to slow down her movements, for fear that if she wasn't careful, she would damage the things inside.
As the layers of stone skin peeled off, a fist-sized fruit appeared in front of her. It was bright red and filled with an intoxicating fragrance.
"quick"
At this moment, a light flashed in the sky, and the white ghost appeared silently behind Jiang Yue, staring at her with anger in his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Who gave you permission to touch the poor thing?"
Jiang Yue was so frightened by the sudden sound that she almost jumped on the spot. Her heart stopped for half a second, and her mind went blank. She didn't expect that the other party would come back at this time.
"Fellow Taoist has not returned yet, so the old man took it upon himself to sell these stones to this female doll." The old man sitting cross-legged on the Wo Niu Stone said slowly,
The white ghost glanced at the old man with a life-threatening gaze, but he didn't say anything more. He pointed at the bright red fruit in Jiang Yue's hand and said, "Hurry up and find a container to seal it up, otherwise the essence will be lost soon." .”
"Ah? Oh oh oh!" Jiang Yue was stunned for a moment, and then she reacted immediately. Without any hesitation, she quickly took out a white jade bottle from the storage ring and sealed the fruit.
Bai Guiming stared at Jiang Yue expressionlessly and said, "This is cut from the stone selected by Pindao."
"But Taoist fellows did not buy these stones." The old man who was sitting cross-legged on the Wo Niu Stone, closing his eyes and meditating, spoke again.
"It's okay, I'm willing to give this fruit to my senior." Jiang Yue hurriedly expressed her position, fearing that the situation would develop in an uncontrollable direction.
Bai Gui took the white jade bottle from Jiang Yue's hand and stared at the bright red fruit inside for a long time. His expression softened a lot and said: "I won't take advantage of you. These spiritual stones are no longer useful to me." Dayong, just think of it as buying this fruit from you."
After saying that, he waved his hand, and with a "crash", a large number of crystal clear spirit stones appeared in front of his eyes. The rays of light shone and the brilliance soared into the sky, like a tall tower. They were all middle-grade spirit stones of average quality. , weighing more than tens of thousands of kilograms!
"This... senior doesn't have to be like this."
Jiang Yue also wanted to tactfully evade, but was interrupted by the other party as soon as she spoke.
"Just keep it if I give it to you. Where do you come from so many words? These things are of little use to me anymore. If they are left on me, they will only occupy a place."
Seeing the other party's attitude, Jiang Yue couldn't shirk anymore and put all the tens of thousands of kilograms of middle-grade spiritual stones into the storage ring.
"Senior, I wonder what kind of fruit this is and what it does?" Jiang Yue couldn't help but ask.
"This fruit is called Nandou Rejuvenation Fruit. It is an extremely rare and top-quality medicine that can extend the life of a poor man for at least four to five hundred years."
For people like them who stand on the top of the mountain, ordinary spiritual substances are of little use to them. Only this rare medicinal material that can prolong life and nourish life essence can enter their eyes.
The white ghost has been trapped in the ancient fairyland for hundreds of thousands of years, and his life essence has almost been dried up. He has reached the point where his life is about to run out. This one can extend his life by another four to five years. One can imagine how precious the century-old Nandou rejuvenation fruit is to him.
Before leaving, Bai Gui asked for his life and handed a piece of jade engraved with special runes to Jiang Yue, saying: "I will stay in Tai'an City for a while. If I encounter any trouble, I only need to crush this piece." A jade talisman can contact Pindao."
Jiang Yue thanked him and continued to walk around the Decaying Residence before leaving.
"With the trump card of Bai Gui Suo Ming, we can also gain a firm foothold in Tai'an City." Jiang Yue was in a good mood. It was unexpected to be able to make good friends with Bai Gui Suo Ming. reward.
They found a hotel to stay in, and early on the first day they arrived at another quiet place near Decay House.
With green bricks and green tiles, surrounded by ancient trees and lush greenery, it looks like a Taoist temple.
Jiang Yue stopped a passerby and asked politely: "Fellow Taoist, do you know where this place is?"
This was a young man who looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old. He stared at Jiang Yue and looked him up and down, and said, "Fellow Taoist, you just came to Tai'an City, right? You don't even know where this place is."
Jiang Yue smiled and said: "It is indeed my first time to come to Tai'an City. I don't know much about the layout of the city. I would like to ask fellow Taoists to clarify my doubts."
"This is Lanyun Temple, which is the Jade Holy Land and one of the top ten Mysterious Sects. It is a stone gambling place opened in Tai'an City."
Lanyun Temple occupies a large area, nestled among lush ancient trees, and is close to nature. As soon as Jiang Yue entered, she saw two familiar figures, the third prince and the ninth princess of the Great Xia Dynasty.
A large group of young monks were accompanying them, and one of them asked in a friendly manner: "I wonder if His Highness the Third Prince wants to bet with Saint Gu Qiu of Xianliu Island this time, or with the young master of Liyue Temple?"
The third prince had black hair like a waterfall and eyes like torches. He walked like a tiger and ignored those people.
Jiang Yue didn't go over to join in the fun and just wandered around by herself.
"The young master of Liyue Temple is right in front. Would you like to go over and say hello to make him look familiar?"
"Goodbye, a descendant of the Gui family is here too. Haven't you heard about what happened recently? The two parties may fight at any time, so it's better to avoid it."
Jiang Yue walked slowly, listening to some people's discussions, and learned a lot of information from them.
There is a demon clan force in Tai'an City called Liyue Temple. Some time ago, their young master severely injured a disciple of the Gui family, causing quite a disturbance.
