I have a little bit of talent

Early in the morning of the second day, Fang Mu ended his night's practice early. After washing up, he did not rush out, but went into the kitchen to get busy.

Soon, Fang Mu brought out a big bowl of steaming noodles and started eating leisurely.

Naturally, these noodles were made from flour he brought from Fang Mansion's kitchen, which he kneaded himself. They were smooth, chewy, crispy and tasty. Added with refreshing local side dishes from Xishan City, Fang Mu enjoyed the meal very much.

It's true, Fang Mu has been cooking for the past few days and his cooking skills have improved dramatically. Now, even ordinary ingredients cooked by him are delicious, far better than the food in ordinary restaurants. Now, unless it is some special food, or delicacies produced by chefs like those in Huaicheng Kelaiju, Fang Mu really doesn't care about ordinary food.

After leisurely finishing a large bowl of noodles and cleaning up the kitchen, Fang Mu slowly walked out of the courtyard and headed towards the northern city area.

"Brother Fang, you're out again."

Not long after he came out of the alley, he met a street vendor selling sesame cakes. The vendor saw Fang Mu and greeted him enthusiastically.

In the past few days, Fang Mu has become familiar with the surrounding small vendors, and has bought a lot of things from them. He also greets people with a smile.

"Good morning, Uncle Feng. Let's go to other districts today."

"Okay, you've only been in Xishan City for a few days, so it's good to see more. Young people are full of energy."

The peddler responded with a smile and looked at Fang Mu expectantly, obviously hoping that he would buy a few pancakes. However, Fang Mu said one sentence and then nothing else. He walked away, leaving him with only his back. His face immediately fell.

"This young man, although he is from a wealthy family and has a lot of money, is unwilling to take care of the business."

Everyone in the world is after fame and fortune. This vendor naturally saw Fang Mu coming to Xishan City for the first time and was quite generous and noble. He had bought a lot of sesame cakes from him a few days ago and inquired about the news of the Banshan Sect. He gave him a lot of money and waited at the entrance of the alley for Fang Mu to come out to see if he could make another fortune. Seeing that Fang Mu was not being reasonable, he became a little unhappy.

Fang Mu did not walk far, so he naturally heard the vendor's complaint, but he ignored him and just quickened his pace, walking down the street. After a while, he left the outskirts of Dongcheng District.

The four outer districts of Xishan City are not connected to each other. It is quite troublesome to go from the East District to the North District. You need to go to the inner city from the main road first, and then go to the North District from the inner city. The round trip is several times longer than the straight-line distance.

Of course, if a master of spiritual practice could fly directly from Wuyun Mountain to Cangmang Mountain where the northern city area is located, the distance would be much shorter.

Fang Mu could certainly fly directly to the North City District, but he had nothing important to do and had plenty of time, so he naturally would not do so.

Although it was early in the morning, there were already many pedestrians and vendors on the street. Although it was not as lively as in the evening, it was still full of life. There was a constant stream of pedestrians on the street, and from time to time pedestrians stopped to buy goods. The sounds of hawking and bargaining were endless.

Although Dongcheng District is where ordinary people live, few practitioners come here, and the street vendors sell mostly local specialties or snacks from Xishan City. Fang Mu has basically visited all of them in the past few days, and has added a lot of things to the mustard seed space.

Fang Mu looked left and right leisurely along the way, but his steps were very fast. Soon he crossed the main road that was several miles long and arrived at the inner city of Xishan City.

The inner city of Xishan City is surrounded by a circle of walls several meters high, which separate the inner and outer urban areas. The main road is a circular road divided by a straight line.

Once you get here, you can head north along this circular road to the foot of Cangmang Mountain and enter the northern city area.

The four urban districts in the southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest, plus several surrounding mountains, and the inner city where the government is located. If you look down at the earth from a high altitude, you will find that the layout of the entire Xishan City is interconnected, forming a Bagua diagram.

"The Great Zhou Dynasty has continued to be strong for a thousand years. It is indeed extraordinary."

Since Fang Mu left home, the several cities he had stayed in in Yanzhou and Yizhou were not simple. They seemed to have ordinary defenses, but in fact they were full of mysteries.

Huaicheng is ruled by Huai Lao, Dushancheng is protected by the Great Yin-Yang Array of Creation, and the entire Xishancheng is built according to the Bagua diagram, so naturally there is also a large array in it.

Almost every city has its own historical background, which makes Fang Mu sigh at the power of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

As for the several cities in Yangzhou, Fang Mu did not find anything special about them, but with Fang Lu stationed in Yangzhou City, the entire Yangzhou was naturally impregnable and difficult for foreign enemies to invade.

Fang Mu collected his thoughts and continued on his way. He walked along the several-meter-wide circular road for about half an hour and finally arrived at the entrance to the North City District at the foot of the vast mountain.

The main road in Beicheng District is still the same, but the architectural style is very different from that in Dongcheng District, showing more ancient charm. Fang Mu admired the architectural scenery of Beicheng District while walking up the main road.

Different from the East City District where pedestrians are in a hurry and it is extremely lively, there are much fewer pedestrians in the North City District. However, each of them has a strong aura and a strong physique, and they are obviously people who are practicing.

As the seat of the Yizhou Sect Alliance, most of the people coming to the North City District are naturally cultivators. Fang Mu had been wandering around the East City District for several days before and had not spotted many cultivators, but in the North City District, there were many cultivators, while there were very few ordinary people.

"Brother, do you know where the Fiery Flame Sect is stationed?"

After all, Fang Mu had only just arrived in the North City District, so he naturally had no idea where the Fiery Flame Sect's headquarters was. He could only ask passers-by who walked in front of his door.

"The Fiery Flame Sect? That's a big sect. It's on the left at the end of the road. Are you from the Fiery Flame Sect, little brother?"

The pedestrian being questioned was a middle-aged man wearing a grey short coat. He had an ordinary appearance and seemed quite honest. When Fang Mu asked about the location of the headquarters of the Fiery Flame Sect, he responded with a smile on his face.

"Thank you, brother. I am not from the Fiery Flame Sect. I am just here to visit a friend."

"Oh, then go by yourself, little brother."

When the man heard Fang Mu say that he was not from the Liehuo Sect, his expression changed immediately. He said something indifferent and ignored him.

Seeing that he had some power, Fang Mu ignored him and went straight to his destination.

After walking up the street for another half an hour and passing by many other sects' headquarters, Fang Mu finally saw a tall building appear at the end of the road. It was the headquarters of the Yizhou Sect Alliance.

On the left and right sides of the alliance headquarters, there is a slightly shorter courtyard. The gate of the courtyard on the left is wide open. There is a plaque right above the gate with three large characters "Liehuo Zong" inscribed on it. This is Fang Mu's destination.

Fang Mu walked straight into the headquarters of the Fiery Flame Sect, where he saw three people wearing clothes with flaming fire patterns drinking tea and chatting, looking relaxed and at ease.

"Who are you? Why did you come to my Fiery Flame Sect's headquarters?"

Several people noticed that Fang Mu came here directly. They looked at each other in surprise, and one of them asked:

It's no wonder these people were a little surprised. In fact, although this is the headquarters of the Liehuo Sect, few people come here on weekdays. Even this headquarters was built here because the headquarters of the sect alliance is here.

The three of them were not valued in the Liehuo Sect, and their talents and roots were average, so they were sent here to guard and find some peace and quiet. The real core disciples all stayed in Yunding Mountain to practice hard, and would never waste their time in Xishan City.

"Brothers, I am a good friend of your sect's Mo Yidao. I just came to Xishan City from Yunding Mountain. There are some things I don't understand, so I came here to ask a few questions."

Fang Mu had not expected that the disciples of the Fiery Flame Sect stationed in Xishan City would actually look a little lazy. Their temperament and image were very different from the disciples of the Fiery Flame Sect he had seen in Yunding Mountain. If these people had not been wearing the standard robes of the Fiery Flame Sect, he would have thought he had come to the wrong place.
