Chapter 165 Speech

There are no red bricks and green tiles, and no courtyard with high walls.There are only fungi of various colors and huge roots stretching across the underground world.But even so, it still couldn't hide the elegance of this place.Walking on the market, Xie Chen realized that the place where A Ping lived was so remote.

At the bottom of the roots are small houses with open doors, like door shops.These Yemo people who live closer to the center will open a small house at the bottom of the roots where they live. Cultivated fungi.

In such a situation of mutual exchange, it is better to ensure that all night borers can obtain more types of food and resources in a limited time.Of course, there are also some door shops that exchange all kinds of novelties.It's just that there are relatively few such door shops, and if there are any, the specifications are relatively high, so it seems that it is not a place where ordinary nights can afford to spend.

A Ping and Xie Chen, who had turned into an uncultivated night borer like A Ping, were walking on the street. When A Ping and Xie Chen had just entered the central area, bursts of sighs spread into Xie Chen's body. in the ear.Maybe Ah Ping didn't listen very carefully, but Xie Chen's ears could hear clearly.It's all about Appin and Miss Lace from the Ellas family.

Although Ah Ping listened very clearly from time to time, it can also be seen from Ah Ping's expression that he definitely knows what these people are going to say, and it seems that he has already gotten used to that appearance.

It's no wonder that since Aping and that Miss Lace couldn't hide from people's gossip at all times, it's just that Aping was in charge of cultivating fungi among the Aylas tribe at that time, so even the gossip was not as arrogant as it is now, the most important thing What's more, there are too many laces. As aristocrats, how dare these commoners make a big publicity.

It was only later that the Aylas tribe, who had discussed the engagement with the nobles of the royal family, clearly announced Lace's marriage. At the same time, Lace also expressed her attitude towards Aping from the side. 120 times the combat power, it is not as good as the description of A Ping as a toad who wants to eat swan meat.

In addition, Aping's unwillingness to go to the Aylas tribe many times to ask to see Lace made his reputation plummet outside.If it is consensual, even if two people cannot be together, at most everyone will only feel sorry.But in the case of A Ping's unilateral entanglement without knowing the real truth, it can be said to be as vicious as it can be.

"Didn't this guy jump into the river? Why did he come back again? If I were him, I wouldn't have the face to come back to meet people even if I died outside."

"Tch, that only shows that you are not thick-skinned enough, no, it should be said that this guy is already shameless, today is the day when the two families are engaged, this guy comes back at this time, and he doesn't know what he wants to do?" Moth."

"What can he do? If it weren't for Miss Lace's kind heart, this guy would have been thrown into that messy grave long ago, and he would still be alive today?"

"But when you say that, I feel a little strange. Logically speaking, all those who offend Miss Lace will not end well, but this guy, Aping, is fine? Is there really something?"

Some of the crowd slandered A Ping, some hated A Ping, and some looked at A Ping with deep curiosity. They really didn't know how this handsome guy who looked very honest and hardworking was doing in normal times. up.There are also suspicions that Ah Ping is really having an affair with Miss Lace.

But no matter who it is, they just watch from a distance, just like sitting in a theater watching a play with relish.They never realize that these things have anything to do with themselves, they just regard these things as seasonings in their lives.

Indeed, they have had enough of the boring days of growing fungi in addition to hunting. If there is no gossip and new things on weekdays, they will probably collapse.

But they never thought about other people's feelings.Words are an invisible knife, and with the upper and lower lips of the face, people can put anyone who wants to kill to death.Of course, such a weapon would only be useful in such a closed small community.

Xie Chen glanced at A Ping, who had dim eyes, but patted him on the shoulder as encouragement, and then took the lead towards the place where the roots of the Aylas family were.

Some luxury cannot be seen here, for example, in the roots of the Aylas family.Living among the roots does not mean the absence of wide gardens, quiet lakes, and fragrant flower gardens.Even more surprising than these.

The roots of the Aylas family are composed of eight huge roots. These eight roots are connected with each other, and there are countless chain bridges connecting them in the sky.There is even a pavilion in the air built in the middle.

Naturally, there is no need to worry about hurricanes or other bad weather in the underground, and the pavilion is also built very firmly in mid-air.There is another world in the roots with a diameter of several kilometers.There is a wide small garden and a small artificial lake. Although all kinds of colorful fungi are planted in the garden, it still has a different taste.And in the man-made small lake, there are all kinds of fish swimming.It can be said to be full of vitality.

The four seasons are like spring in the roots, so if you have such a root, it means that you can live in the roots without leaving home until you die. However, such roots are only available to these nobles. It can be enjoyed, and even among the nobles, not everyone is entitled to enjoy these things.After all, good things are reserved for the few who hold the power in this world to enjoy.Ordinary people just don't expect such things in their lives.

It's just that these things are just worthless to Xie Chen.

              

Chapter 166 The King

The engagement this time was not as simple as the ordinary people outside thought, but a power transaction or a conspiracy between the strong and the strong related to the replacement of the throne.

As long as the king is around, there will never be turmoil in the Yegan clan. This is the old rule of the Yegan clan.It's not that the Yeyan clan obeys the rules so much, but that the king's strength is enough to suppress all rebellions or factors of instability.

As long as there is a king, no matter how much you want to resist the king's rule, in the eyes of the king, it is just like an ant trying to kill an elephant.Not the slightest threat.

When Wang is happy, he will lie down on the ground to play with you and tease you, but when Wang is angry, he will just step you into the ground with one foot, making it impossible for you to turn over forever.

There are too many such examples, and it is precisely such half-blooded examples that make the Yeyan clan's rebellion against the king more and more small, and finally disappear directly.In this way, the tradition of respecting the king has been passed down with the passing of generations of ancestors.

Sometimes the power of habit is terrifying, especially such a habit that has long been engraved in the bones of all tribesmen.But just when the nobles who lived in the habit of respecting the king suddenly received the news that the king was about to die.But another seed has taken root in the hearts of these nobles who are not satisfied with their own rights and power.greedy.

The passing of the old king means the rise of a new king.As for who the new king is, no one knows. This is very intriguing if no one knows. If no one knows, it means that you have a possibility, he has a possibility, and I have a possibility.

Suddenly all the nobles panicked.The aristocratic circle, which was originally loose and independent, and no one cares about anyone, suddenly became tighter, and cliques emerged in endlessly.At this time, Gu Jiao, Wang's nephew, was also moved.

The king has twelve sons, but there are only two who are qualified to inherit the throne no matter their age or strength.The others are either too young, or weak and incompetent.You must know that there is nothing here that can be overthrown after becoming a king.

As long as you take the position of king, you will never be overthrown unless you die.So the competition is much more straightforward, without so many circles around.Either be the king, or someone else will take the throne.Naturally, because he won't worry about being overthrown, even if he fails to fight for the throne, he won't be executed directly by the king.Of course, if the king has a grudge against you, then that's not necessarily the case.

Although Gu Jiao wanted the throne very much, he knew that it was a daydream to fight for the throne just by relying on his own strength and influence, so he could only seek the help of other nobles.Marriage is the best way for nobles to exchange friendship before.And it just so happened that the Aylas family also had the same thoughts.They don't have the ambition to be kings, but it would be good news if they become princesses.

Therefore, no matter from the interests of the family or Lace's future lifelong happiness, marrying Gu Jiao's family is undoubtedly the best plan.And Lace herself is very happy.

This kind of marriage has been carried out in the Yeyan clan for the next five times, each of which is a lady or son of a famous noble family.And the nobles who were entangled in this way were divided into no less than ten shares.

It's a pity that these nobles still ignore the king who has ruled them for thousands of years.

"How's the recent situation?" A wrinkled old man sat directly in the thickest root in the middle of the group. He held a book in one hand and asked while concentrating on it.The object of questioning was a young girl who looked to be in her 20s across from him.

"It's almost over. More than a dozen forces are entangled together. There is only one fuse to start a fight." The girl replied blankly.His eyes stood there motionless and he spoke.

"Hahaha, don't be in a hurry, it doesn't matter if they fight or not, since they all know that as long as I'm still here, they don't want to talk about rebellion or anything. It's a pity, they still can't hold back. Hehe, smile. It's just hard for you, I'm afraid I can't do what I promised you." The old man started to look like he was holding the wisdom beads, but at the end of his speech, his tone was a little more lonely, even his eyes flashed a little bit. guilt.

"Master, it's okay. I should inherit your position, but I just feel a little bit reluctant to part with you." There seems to be a deep affection between the grandfather and granddaughter.But in the mouth of the granddaughter, it seems that the position of the king is not as beautiful as imagined.Instead, it became something to be despised.

"Hehe, is it so easy to be king? Hehe, they are just a group of guys blinded by interests. If they are allowed to be kings, the tribe will disappear faster." The old man looked helpless.There was the same sadness in the eyes as in the sigh.

"Don't think so much, as long as I'm here, we will never let our group disappear!" Apart from melancholy, there was also a trace of firmness and bravery in the girl's eyes.

No matter how these nobles and kings are, Xie Chen is very leisurely at this moment.Since he was going to attend someone else's engagement, it would be appropriate to bring some gifts with him.With this in mind, Xie Chen pulled A Ping, who was reluctant to move behind him, into a very luxurious door shop.

Generally, only nobles are allowed to enter such door shops.But today, I don't know if the attendant at the door had a problem with his eyes and turned a blind eye to himself and Xie Chen.So A Ping walked inside under the leadership of Xie Chen.

This store is somewhat similar to the jade shops on the earth, and all the displays in it are strangely shaped and colorful stones.Even Xie Chen saw a strange stone with flames burning outside.

In the Yeyan clan, except for the commoners who traded goods, other high-end shops exchanged night stones.

              

Chapter 167 Gifts

Night stone is a kind of stone that emits a faint light at night. This kind of stone does not exist underground, only above the ground.And the output is also scary.It can only be seen in the hands of nobles.

If night weariness is practiced, half of it will be at night.In addition to absorbing the power of the stars at night, among the Night Sick Clan, they also absorb the energy in the night stone during the day.However, since daytime is not the best time for cultivation, and at night, although absorbing the energy in the night stone will be faster than absorbing the energy of the stars scattered in the night sky, it is not as fast as there.

Of course, unless you put dozens or even hundreds of night stones in the room, in this case, the qualitative change will be caused by the quantitative change, which will greatly speed up your cultivation.

Although it is not difficult for a nobleman to take out tens or hundreds of night stones, if he has to take out so many night stones every day after a long period of practice, I am afraid that only the king can support it.

It is also because night stones are inconvenient to use, so although the nobles use night stones as currency to exchange things, most of them still barter like ordinary people.Exchange things you don't need for things you need or like.

And now the place where Xie Chen walked in was such a place for bartering.Of course, if you have a lot of night stones, you can also choose to use night stones to buy things you like or fancy.

The moment Xie Chen brought A Ping into the place, the people outside suddenly became lively again.Everyone knows that Ah Ping is just a decent commoner among the Yeyan clan.And it's a good time to say a year ago.During this year, Ah Ping felt as if he was useless for Miss Lace.Not to mention going in and out of such a place, it may be difficult to be self-sufficient and fill your stomach.

But today dare to go to such a place?Could it be that there was some adventure when I went out?Or came across a night stone mine that was not mined and where there were no beasts?All kinds of speculations suddenly spread wildly among the people.

Xie Chen didn't care about these gossips, and took A Ping directly to choose Miss Lace's engagement gift in this very high-end shop.

That's right, an engagement gift.When Xie Chen went to visit people, he naturally needed to bring something, otherwise he would go empty-handed, not to mention losing face, at least his own accomplishments would be thrown aside by him.As for Aping's affairs, one size is equal to one size, and we just count one by one.

In fact, most people's lace is just a crime of chaos and abandonment.They didn't do anything, and if you want to blame, you can only blame A Ping for not knowing people well and meeting people unkindly.This time I brought Aping to the first place in the Elas family to meet the king here, and the other is to fulfill the promise I made to Aping when I rescued Aping.Let him see Lace again, and ask him in person.

Since choosing a gift, it is natural to be careful. In fact, with the things in Xiechenfu mountain city, he doesn't need to come here at all, as long as he just takes out one thing from those boxes, it is enough as a gift , It's just that these things are not things of this world, Xie Chen doesn't want to reveal his identity as an outsider.

Xie Chen was not polite, and directly chose the best stone wall in the store.If the stone wall alone is not the best, but there is a starry sky on the stone wall, it is different.

There are dots of starlight on the dark stone wall, these starlights are very hazy, if you look carefully, these starlights seem to be reflected on the stone wall, and these starlights will also change with time.Just like a real starry sky.The most important thing is that this stone wall also exudes the power of stars that can only be seen at night.Although it is very weak, it is much more than what is emitted by dozens of night stones.

The key point is that the stone wall emits continuously, unlike night stones, each night stone contains a certain amount of energy, and it is useless after it is emitted.

This one stone wall used up all of Xie Chen's night stones.If you ask Xie Chen where the night stone came from, it is naturally stolen. Xie Chen has only stayed here for a day since he came here.But there is no time to go out to the outside world to find the night stone mine.

Xie Chen felt that he lacked a lot of star power when he was thinking about becoming night tired. Although Xie Chen could absorb the star power even during the day, absorbing a lot of star power would definitely cause the so-called king to panic. Notice.

So Xie Chen simply did not do anything, and directly came to a big sweep. The nobles in the entire community, Xie Chen, basically did not let them go. After a sweep, Xie Chen immediately had a large number of night stones by his side.This also made Xie Chen deeply understand the meaning of the truth that a horse has no night grass and no fat!

It's just that for Xie Chen, no matter how many night stones there are, it's not enough. The night stones that bought gifts today are all Xie Chen has left.If it wasn't for Xie Chen's restraint, I'm afraid there wouldn't be any Yeshi left.

With the gift in his hand and some A Ping who has been absent-minded since he came out.

Men and women are always full of unavoidable love, and after the joy and joy of being together, most of the time they are greeted with melancholy and emptiness.

No one can stay with you all the time, and no one really won't leave.Unless you have Xie Chen's strength.If Xie Chen encountered such a situation, he would definitely cut off all memories about that woman without hesitation.After all, there is no need to force the sincerity that does not belong to you.

But who made Xie Chen agree to A Ping's request? For the sake of his unwillingness to give up, taking him to meet him is not a very embarrassing thing.It's just that I feel a little sorry for Aping's infatuation and can't let go.Of course, even though I said this, if Xie Chen and A Ping were really asked to switch, Xie Chen didn't know if he would be as melancholy and absent-minded as A Ping.

But A Ping is not Xie Chen after all, and Xie Chen will not be A Ping after all.Such a relationship will never be reversed.

              

Chapter 168 The carnival before the arrival of the extreme cold

The engagement scene between the Aylas tribe and Gujiao was very grand. Under the eight huge roots of the Aylas tribe, the wedding banquet in a circle can be said to be full of people coming and going.Naturally, most of the people here are small characters.Big shots naturally disdain to mingle with such a crowd.

And Xie Chen and A Ping were also among them.This is a banquet for nobles, so only nobles, big and small, can come in.But this is naturally difficult for Xie Chen.According to a very classic saying, that is: if you can't even get in the door, what a fart.Crude but true.

It's not enough to enter the door, and you still have to not be discovered by the people here.Xie Chen is easy to talk about, but the trouble is that A Ping who has been in a daze.This guy's expression became even more dazed after he entered the door, as if he had been possessed by an evil spirit.

Xie Chen didn't have mind reading skills, so naturally he didn't know what A Ping was thinking, and only A Ping knew what it was like.

The purpose of Xie Chen's coming here is very simple, that is to find the most official here, and then get the best word from him or about the central passage, if not, just go to meet the so-called king directly.

Although there are many people here, they still haven't lost the dignity of the nobles, as can be seen from the luxurious food and utensils on the table and the red carpet on the ground.I don't know what the carpet is made of, but when you step on it, it feels like you're in the clouds, which is very comfortable.

And above the banquet, there are hundreds of crystal ores of various colors hanging.It exudes light of various colors. Although the colors are messy, they coordinate and complement each other. It is very soft and does not make people feel glaring.

Finally, under such circumstances, I saw a woman wearing the traditional dress of the Yeyan clan walking out of a root.Correspondingly, a very energetic man walked out of another root.The man and the woman seemed to be like a golden boy and a jade girl, walking slowly towards each other.

These plots are naturally arranged. After all, such an engagement ceremony, among nobles, must follow very strict rules.

"It's a good match. It would be great if I could walk on such a red carpet that day."

"Tch, it's just you, let's forget it, you have to know that he is the king's nephew! You, it's still the next life."

"Think about it!" The two women in front of Xie Chen and A Ping were excitedly discussing the seemingly romantic scene in front of them.If you know the dark curtain of this scene, you really don't know what these two women will think of it.

"Thank you." Just when Xie Chen was looking at the corner of Gu Jiao indifferently, A Ping suddenly said.

"Thank you, I have troubled you these days, I don't want to see her anymore." As if he had figured something out, Ah Ping looked at Xie Chen with a smile on his face and said.

This scene surprised Xie Chen a little. From the time he got A Ping up to the present, Xie Chen could fully imagine what that woman meant to A Ping from the time he spent together, but he could see her right now. However, Aping suddenly gave up.

"I've troubled you these days. Don't worry, I won't tell you about you." A Ping seemed to be afraid that Xie Chen would be worried and instead comforted Xie Chen.
