I have a city that never sleeps
Chapter 25
……
"God, god!"
After a long silence, the person who bet just now blurted out first.
To be able to move more than 200 people out of thin air to a land thousands of miles away, isn't this the way of the gods!
Immediately, everyone was so excited that goosebumps popped out. Sure enough, the legend of the city that never sleeps is true, and the Lord Jiang is also a cultivator of immortals!How could anyone do this but him? !
All the people present were more or less worried about whether the city that never sleeps is as magical as in the legend, whether the rumors are all false, and whether they will be deceived.
But when they first arrived in the city that never sleeps, they gave up this idea. The city that never sleeps is really amazing!
amazing!
Chu Zhi and Ye Jianyi led them inside together. At the beginning, the streets on both sides were just ordinary green trees and flowers covered with beautiful lanterns. Going to feast and feast, there is no dark place.
Someone said with emotion: "The city that never sleeps, the city that never sleeps, no wonder it is called the city that never sleeps. This city really has no night, and this kind of candlelight is extremely luxurious. No city in the world can do it!"
"There are also the buildings on the two sides. Although they haven't arrived yet, they feel magnificent from a distance, and the height is even more shocking. The number of floors... there are at least five floors. There are even higher ones ahead!"
Everyone was like bumpkins entering the city one by one, unable to stop feeling the beauty of the city.
They couldn't wait to go to the center to taste the legendary tea, but Chu Zhi and Ye Jianyi took them to stop outside a long pavilion, with transparent signboards on both sides, and a very detailed map inside.
"It's almost the first time for all of you to come to the city that never sleeps. First, let me explain to you some interesting and delicious places around here." Chu Zhi said with a smile, "Of course, it's best not to come to the city for the first time. Listen, because this place is very different from last time."
Song Ke looked around in amazement, and nodded in agreement. The last time he came, it was obviously not so luxurious.
In just one month, so many places have been built, it really deserves to be a city that never sleeps.
"First of all, the place that everyone is most concerned about is the restaurant in the front. You can choose seats at will on the first and second floors. The third and fourth floors are private rooms, and the price will be more expensive. In addition, I also order the dishes here. The price is not cheap. Please Do what you can."
"The opposite of the restaurant is the inn. The room number is written on the back of the token on your waist. You can go in and rest at any time. It is equipped with hot spring steaming equipment, which can be used at will. No money is required. The 1000 taels of silver for entering the city is the fee."
"There is a music fountain at the back of the inn, which is a good viewing area, and it can be clearly seen from the inn room. Behind the restaurant is a built garden, with small bridges and flowing water, gazebo stone tablets, fish ponds and gardens. And there is a thousand-year-old money tree among them, I heard that making a wish to it can make your wish come true, you can try it.”
Hearing the beautiful scenery he said, everyone couldn't help but start to imagine wildly, but they didn't take the money tree seriously.
Chu Zhi went on to say: "Adjoining the restaurant and the inn are some shops, which sell weapons and medicines, and the products produced in the city that never sleeps are guaranteed. And today, in order to thank you for coming, the city lord specially took out a good weapon. There will be an auction at three o'clock, if you are interested, you can go and have a look."
arms? !
When they heard that the city that never sleeps actually sells weapons, everyone was shocked for a moment.
They came here just for the food, but they didn't expect to have such a harvest!
What is the so-called good weapon, and how good is it? Everyone scratched their heads and wanted to ask in detail, but Chu Zhi continued to introduce: "The most important place is introduced below, which can be said to be the core of the city that never sleeps—"
When he said this, he once again aroused everyone's attention and listened attentively.
And Chu Zhi raised his lips with a smile, and then he said in a long voice: "Its name is Qingfeng Pavilion—a place for drinking and playing music, silk and bamboo orchestras, singing and dancing."
As soon as the words fell, people in the Jianghu showed suddenly realized expressions, and they couldn't help but show some anticipation in their eyes.
There were not many entertainment activities in Dawei, and the singing and dancing alone became popular all over the country.
And in a city, there must be places for singing and dancing like this.
It's just a pity that Chu Zhi wants to emphasize better, he is doing serious business:
"Guests who want to enjoy singing and dancing, and talk about poetry and essays, you can enjoy it. But one thing needs to be reminded, Qingfeng Pavilion pays attention to the word 'clear', please don't rely on your status to mess around." His face showed a bit of coldness , Ye Jianyi on the side started to show murderous aura without saying a word, which immediately made everyone feel awe-inspiring.
But there are still people who can't wait to ask: "Is this Qingfeng Pavilion full of beauties?"
Chu Zhi smiled: "Of course, there must be only a handful of beauties in the city that never sleeps. Even ordinary dancers are amazingly beautiful. Maybe you have never seen such a beautiful person in your life, especially the leader of a famous actress—"
Having said that, he narrowed his eyes meaningfully, arousing everyone's curiosity.
Even ordinary dancers are so beautiful, how beautiful is that leading actress? !
They are so curious!
Hearing the beauty of famous actresses, some people are ready to move and don't want to waste a moment.
Gathering their eager eyes, Chu Zhi smiled secretly, and finally emphasized: "The last area is the Tongtian Pavilion. I think you have heard of it. This is the place where the City Lord Jiang is. If you want to pay a visit to the City Lord , I will meet you naturally at the auction at midnight, and please don't trespass into Tongtian Pavilion without authorization!"
He swept across the obvious thorns in the crowd, and smiled slightly: "Otherwise, Sword God's smile is not a joke."
"..."
Looking at Ye Jianyi who was as cold as ice, everyone shuddered silently.
Everyone in the Jianghu knows that Ye Jianyi is not scary when he is indifferent, but the scary thing is that he smiles, which means you are dead.
Keeping in mind that the road that can never lead to Tongtian Pavilion, everyone nodded repeatedly to express their understanding.
But someone asked: "What should I do if something happens and I want to find you?"
Chu Zhi said: "I will always stay in the back kitchen of Zuixiang Building. If there is anything, you can come to me. If it is an emergency, please break the tokens on your waist as soon as possible, and the city owner will naturally feel it."
Everyone was stunned, and saw the token at their waists again. This token could not only teleport them, but also summon the city lord if something happened.
This is the end of Chu Zhi's introduction, we can disband on the spot.
Although these guests are free to go anywhere, but they only know the beauty of the drinks and tea in the restaurant, they are not very interested in other places, so they follow Chu Zhi to Zuixianlou, which makes Chu Zhi have a headache .
Although Zuixian Tower can accommodate so many guests, if he, Chu Zhi, cooks for so many people, won't he be exhausted? ?
He quickly explained: "Everyone, don't rush to the restaurant. Shouldn't you have fun in the city that never sleeps during the long night? It will take more time for everyone to go to the restaurant and wait for the food. Why don't you go to other places to have a look first? I'm tired of playing. Come have some supper, how about?"
After mentioning this, everyone realized the problem, looked at each other, and dispersed in twos and threes. After all, there are still four hours, so don't worry about it.
"I'm going to visit that fountain, is there anyone with me?"
"I'm very curious about the scenery in the back garden, let's go there first!"
"Why don't you find out what weapons will be auctioned in the next few minutes, or calculate how much money it will cost."
"Of course I'm going to Qingfeng Pavilion to see the beauties, hahaha heroes are also curious about the appearance of the leader, let's go! Let's go together!"
In this way, the number of guests going to Zuixianlou plummeted, and the pressure was relieved a lot, but there are still many people who stubbornly go to Zuixianlou first, because they know a secret, that is, the wine in Zuixianlou is limited!If you go late, you won't be able to buy it.
Looking at those people who left without knowing it, Tao Wenmao slowly felt a little joy in his heart. His reputation in the Jianghu is not bad, he is Tong Yuanliang's close friend, and he is good at using sticks.
Just a few months ago, he and Tong Yuanliang were stuck on the third level, and neither of them had broken through, but after just visiting the city that never sleeps, Tong Yuanliang quickly broke through to the fourth level, which surprised him.
Hearing from Tong Yuanliang that a pot of wine in the city that never sleeps has such an effect, his eyes suddenly lit up, but unfortunately he searched for the location of the city that never sleeps every day, but he never found it. Gotta moan.
And on a certain day, he finally heard the news about the city that never sleeps, so he sold all his valuable possessions, and immediately got up and went to the capital.
The main purpose of his coming to the city that never sleeps is for the magical pot of wine. It is said that only one pot is sold, and he must not let anyone preempt it.
After following the crowd to Zuixian Tower, Tao Wenmao admired the luxurious environment in the building and wanted to choose a good seat to sit down.
But before he moved, someone approached him and said, "Your Excellency is Tao Wenmao, Tao Daxia?"
Tao Wenmao looked to the right, and guessed the identity of the visitor from the fat figure and the Yonghua cloth: "Then you must be the owner of Wantong Bank, Pang Tianzong, Boss Pang."
Pang Tianzong has a round body, a fat face, always smiling, and a lot of money, very rich, but he is a master at using hidden weapons, no one dares to underestimate this person.
Suddenly being accosted by such a person, Tao Wenmao was still a little puzzled. He nodded calmly and saluted, but moved his body to his seat: "What can you do for me, Your Excellency?"
Pang Tian smiled and didn't care about his guard, and said in a warm voice: "I'm a little interested in the box, but the box for one person is boring after all, so I want to find a few like-minded heroes to chat and drink together. I don't know if Tao Daxia is interested. interest."
Tao Wenmao was startled, and glanced back, only to realize that there were two people behind him, both of whom were well-known heroes in the Jianghu.
Pang Tianzong continued: "The box needs 1000 taels of silver, and we share it equally between each of us, but when ordering, we can each order a dish and share it equally. Wouldn't it be possible to eat more delicious dishes?"
This sentence pierced Tao Wenmao's heart, and his heart moved. One person can order two dishes at most, but people can taste all kinds of dishes together, and the dishes in the city that never sleeps have magical effects. The more the better, the better. , the proposal is perfect.
He was a cheerful person, and immediately cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Boss Pang, for inviting me. Then I will be more polite, let's go together!"
"Okay." Pang Tianzong nodded in satisfaction, and when he turned his head, he suddenly saw a figure passing by, and quickly shouted, "Hero Song, do you want to join our box!"
Song Ke was standing there, showing a bit of confusion when he stopped him.Because he didn't know this person at all!
But he found that everyone was staring at him with incomparably hot eyes. After thinking about it, he finally realized.
After all, he was the only one who was familiar with the city that never sleeps, so he must have wanted to get closer and collect information, but he also couldn't refuse Pang Tianzong's box strategy, so he obediently agreed.
The five of them walked to the upstairs box together, and the rest of the people saw this and their eyes lit up, and they all learned how to form gangs.
But when they were wasting time, Pang Tianzong and the others had already taken their seats in the box.
The theme of this box is plum blossoms, and there is a beautiful view of man-made falling snow in the room. The gorgeous red plums bloom all the way to the glass window, as if you are in the world of plum gardens, which makes you feel refreshed.
As soon as he entered the house, even Pang Tianzong, who had seen all kinds of treasures in his family, was amazed.
It wasn't until the shop waiter came to the box to offer the menu that everyone reluctantly looked away and sat down at the table.
While they were looking at the menu curiously, Song Ke looked at the waiter from the famous shop with a surprised expression, and couldn't help asking, "When did you come to the city that never sleeps?"
When he came last time, there were only Ye Jianyi and the city owner in the city that never sleeps. Unexpectedly, in just one month, there would be a waiter.
The waiter smiled and said, "Just half a month ago."
Seeing that the little girl in this store has no martial arts but can stay in the city that never sleeps, everyone has different thoughts, and can't help but continue to ask: "How did you get in?"
"Returning guest officer, the young one happened to meet the city lord when he was running for his life because of the famine. The city lord saw that the young one was about to die, so he left the young one to stay temporarily in the city that never sleeps and gave him some porridge."
Speaking of this, the waiter in the shop had tears in his eyes, scratched his head embarrassingly, and told his true feelings: "The city lord is very kind and virtuous, and I am very grateful. I am willing to do odd jobs for the city lord here. come down."
No one doubted the authenticity of his words, and they all sighed, and were a little moved by City Lord Jiang's kindness.
This is the flexibility and authenticity of the NPCs produced by the system. They all have their own backgrounds and their own personalities.
Song Ke nervously said subconsciously: "Then can people like us stay in the city that never sleeps?"
Everyone's breathing was stagnant, and their eyes were a little more anxious. Just drinking a cup of tea in the city that never sleeps has such a miraculous effect, so if you stay here for half a month, won't you be the best in martial arts in the world!It seems to have found a shortcut to invincibility!
"This..." the waiter pursed his lips in embarrassment, and said with a wry smile, "Guest officer, first, the city that never sleeps only accepts people who are homeless and unable to survive, and there is no shortage of manpower. Second, as long as you stay in the city that never sleeps It is necessary to sign a contract, and you will never leave the city for eternity, and live a busy life upside down day and night. You should think carefully about it."
Now that everyone is silent, they will never leave the city that never sleeps, so what's the use of martial arts, forget it.
After a moment of weird silence, Song Ke changed the topic in a lively atmosphere: "Everyone, let's order first, one dish for each person?"
Everyone had a lot of banknotes in their pockets, and they were rich and powerful, so they nodded happily.
When they looked down at the menu, the corners of their mouths twitched in pain. As they expected, every dish made by Chu Zhi was very expensive, ranging from 5000 taels at the lowest to 10,000+ taels at the highest. It was simply too expensive. It's just eating money.
But they have never heard of the names of the dishes written on the menu, and they don't know how they taste.
The shop waiter first explained: "Because Pang Keguan spent 15 taels to purchase the token, according to the rules, he can give the guest a soup, a dish and a dessert, and he can choose freely. In addition, in order to allow customers to better identify the recipes, the recipes are divided into different flavors. They are divided into four categories: sweet, sour, salty, and spicy. The price of each category is similar, so you can choose the dishes you like.”
Tao Wenmao suddenly said: "I heard that this spicy taste is created by the great hero Chu. Even the emperor praised it after eating it. This spicy taste must be tasted."
"That's right. Hero Chu is famous all over the world for his spiciness. I've been looking forward to it for a long time." Pang Tianzong nodded and said, "Then choose the boiled pork slices recommended later!"
Everyone followed his fingers to look down, only to find that there are little stars behind each recipe. The dishes with more stars will have the word "recommended" written on them at the end. The boiled pork slices are five stars, which is full.
Song Ke couldn't help laughing, he didn't expect Chu Zhi to have such a childlike innocence, this menu is really interesting.
"This dessert... recommend tira and misu? What is this tiramisu?" Song Ke asked curiously.
The waiter in the shop only said: "This is a different dessert carefully created by the hero Chu, please have a try."
So, the five people ordered five different dishes, covering all the tastes, and Pang Tianzong ordered another "fragrant bayberry concubine soup" for free.
I thought it would be slow if there were too many people, but I didn't expect that the waiter in the shop brought the soup just after ordering.
It is said that the soup is actually a summer summer drink, but the red bayberry and lychee used in it are very rare in the Jianghu. Invigorating.
Pang Tianzong only took a sip, and then showed a comfortable smile, which made the others scratch their ears and cheeks, very curious.
Pang Tianzong didn't hide it, he filled a bowl for everyone, and everyone couldn't wait to take a sip, and surprise appeared in their eyes.
"This soup is actually cold, and it matches this midsummer very well."
"Sweet and sour, the flesh is full and juicy, it's wonderful! It's wonderful!! I don't know what this ingredient is, but if I can taste it at home, it will be a fairyland on earth."
After Song Ke tasted it, he also showed a relaxed expression, but he had the experience to close his eyes immediately to check his dantian, and opened it happily after a long time: "It turns out that this soup has the effect of calming and purifying the heart. I feel very open and happy."
When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized that they were not just drinking and having fun in the city that never sleeps.They also checked their dantians one by one, and they were really excited.
After meditating for almost a day, the internal strength can be multiplied, which is definitely a good thing!
I didn't expect a bowl of soup to have such an effect, what about other dishes?
The eager eyes of wolves fell on other dishes, and everyone eagerly picked up their chopsticks. The rest of the dishes were as delicious as imagined. Even the original spicy taste was a bit choking at first, but somehow they couldn’t put their chopsticks down for a bite After swallowing one bite, I was very happy to eat.
"As expected of Hero Chu, the No. 1 chef in Jianghu, this spicy taste is really amazing. If I can't eat spicy food in the future, how will I live!"
"When I think about leaving the city that never sleeps tomorrow morning, my heart feels like bleeding!"
"This is called pepper? It's a godsend, it's so delicious, why isn't it made outside!"
"It's not because of the peppers. You have seen other dishes outside. Are there any dishes made by Hero Chu? They are all made by Hero Chu!"
"If you want me to say that this dessert is delicious, you all come and try it. I have never tasted such a soft and sweet dessert. I have never tasted it before. It would be a shame not to try it!"
……
Everyone was exploring, savoring, and making comments one after another, and they stopped their chopsticks when they were almost finished eating.
Seeing that they were all addicted to appetite, Song Ke shook his head helplessly, knocked on the table, and reminded: "Have you all discovered the wonder of these dishes?"
"Uh..." This question made the rest of the people stunned. They couldn't wait to eat the food, and they didn't have time to care about other things. They immediately felt ashamed, "This... what does Song Daxia think?"
Song Ke smiled helplessly, and said directly: "According to what I have seen, this sweet taste has the effect of clearing and beautifying the Lingtai, the spicy taste has the effect of gathering qi and blood to increase strength, the salty taste has the effect of increasing internal strength, and the sour taste Well, it seems that Ruyan has the effect of increasing the sensitivity of the body... but it's just a guess."
If Chu Zhi were here, he would be surprised. He deliberately added different side effects to each cuisine. Unexpectedly, Song Ke tasted all of them after eating it once. What a wonder!
But he's not here, he's hanging up.
Fortunately, the system has an automatic hosting function, so he doesn't need to do the cooking himself. He only needs to put it on the hook in the back kitchen, and the speed will be soaring.
Greatly reduces the stress of cooking.
The rest of the people were also dumbfounded when they heard Song Ke's introduction. On the one hand, they were keen on Song Ke, and on the other hand, they were surprised by the dishes in the city that never sleeps.
They felt their own bodies, and it turned out that their physical fitness and internal strength had been raised a bit, and they even just ate a dish.
"Amazing, amazing!!"
Everyone has no culture, and can only use one word to travel around the world.
"If I hadn't known the Great Xia Chu, I would almost have thought he was an immortal descended from the sky!"
"How can there be such a terrifying effect of dishes? The dishes made by the great hero Chu are definitely worthy of the money. Even if it is ten thousand taels, it is difficult to buy these effects!!"
"Yeah yeah!!"
Everyone who was still complaining about eating money just now smiled happily, their hearts didn't hurt anymore, and their hands were generous. They wished they could order ten more dishes to increase their internal strength!
At this time, Tao Wenmao, who was immersed in joy, was shocked suddenly and stood up: "Oh, why did I forget the business!"
He was extremely annoyed in his heart, and almost shouted out the door with all his strength: "The waiter! The waiter!!"
Everyone was amazed by his actions, but Pang Tianzong immediately pulled down the copper bell on the wall: "Don't be anxious, Daxia Tao, just pull down the bell and the waiter from the shop will come, you and I can wait with peace of mind."
It was only then that Tao Wenmao thought of the reminder from the waiter before he left, and he sat down again in embarrassment. It wasn't until the waiter hurried over that he asked patiently, "I want to buy wine, and the name is Huangliang Yimeng. selling?!"
Among the group, only Song Ke understood that Huang Liang's dream was the day Tong Daxia drank the wine that saw his master's sword skills greatly improved, and gave Tao Wenmao a thoughtful look.
Not many people know this information at the moment, the shop clerk smiled and said: "Of course, but this wine only sells three jugs, this guest officer is really lucky."
Not waiting for Tao Wenmao to heave a sigh of relief, the waiter asked again: "This wine is ten thousand taels of silver for a pot, do you need it?"
"What?!" Tao Wenmao was shocked, "Isn't it 5000 taels of silver!"
Hearing this, everyone realized that he had obtained hidden information from the previous group of people who came to the city that never sleeps, and they couldn't help pricking up their ears.
The shop waiter smiled: "Guest officer, it was a trial operation at that time, so the price will be much cheaper."
Tao Wenmao gritted his teeth, but he had nothing to say, he came here for this pot of wine, even if it was expensive, he had to order it!
Why is Yuan Liang so lucky, he casually snatched the quota in the city that never sleeps, broke through ahead of time with less money, sour, so sour!
He took out the bank note in pain: "Come have a pot!"
The waiter in the shop suddenly smiled: "The customer has a good eye, this wine is very difficult, and now there are only two jugs left."
After he said this, Tao Wenmao's face became better, and the others became more curious, and couldn't help asking: "Hero Tao, this wine is very valuable, it must be very precious, what effect does it have?"
Now that he bought it, Tao Wenmao didn't hide it anymore, and made a personal favor: "To tell you the truth, I have a friend who drank this wine, and the next day he broke through the realm of swordsmanship in his dream, and his martial arts greatly improved! "
"What?!" Everyone was shocked, their eyes glistened, they didn't expect this wine to have such a powerful effect, they had to order it!
For those who are not short of money, for example, Pang Tianzong immediately ordered [-] taels of Huangliang Yimeng. The others looked at each other and were very depressed. The money was really too much, and they really couldn't afford it.
Fortunately, Song Ke reminded that the rest of the wine also had other effects, and introduced it. Everyone ordered a pot according to their needs, and returned with a full load.
The guests in this room had a good time eating, and the rest of the guests also had a good time.
The small bridge and flowing water in the backyard are quiet and leisurely, and dreamlike candles spread all around, as if breaking into a wonderful illusion.
Even among the flowers without candles, there are some obvious green lights shining, which is the natural beauty emitted by fireflies, and it is the original landscape specially preserved by the city that never sleeps.
The sky is full of stars, bright and expansive.
But the Ten Thousand Flowers Lamp Stand is not only surrounded by lights, but even looking up at the sky is full of floating Kongming lanterns, swaying in the night wind, shining brilliantly into the eyes.
If you are interested, you can buy it for a tael of silver, write a sentence and let it fly in the air, and your wish will stay in the night forever.
In the stele pavilion, Dunhuang exotic murals are engraved on the walls and ceilings for people to appreciate. In the koi pond, golden fish swim comfortably among the lotus flowers.
Cao Miaoyan was fascinated by the beauty of the lake and couldn't look away.
She is the daughter of the head of the Moon Pity Sect, and she is very much loved. Hearing that the Evernight City is interesting enough, the head of the door gave ten thousand taels of silver in exchange for her token.But at this moment, she didn't buy weapons, didn't taste delicious food, but looked at the golden koi at the bottom of the lake with a smile, showing joy.
The lake was a little low, and she couldn't stretch out her hand to pick up the water waves, so she picked up the moonlight with regret, and looked down. She wanted to feed these koi some food, but she was empty.
But the signs standing around attracted her attention: 【Do not enter the water.If you want to feed the koi, please go to the restaurant and ask]
Cao Miaoyan's eyes lit up, and she ran to the restaurant immediately, but the waiter who heard her request took out a small bag of fish food, and suddenly stretched out his hand to her: "Ten taels of silver."
Cao Miaoyan: "..."
???
"You need ten taels of silver to feed the fish, you are stealing money!!"
She was angry and unwilling, but the waiter in the shop just stood there leisurely, saying that one tael of ten taels of silver was indispensable.
There is no way, for those lovely koi, Cao Miaoyan finally paid the money depressedly, and returned to the koi pond with a small bag of fish food.
It was hard to adjust the mood to feed the koi, but the koi didn’t even look at the food that fell into the water, and even gurgled and bubbled, and turned away. Cao Miaoyan could imagine that they tui, rolled their eyes and left expression.
Cao Miaoyan: ...The stone hammer!This is a black shop!Just grabbing money!pay back! !
She stomped angrily and was about to go to the shop waiter to argue, but at this moment, a slow-moving koi suddenly swam towards the fish food, and opened its mouth to swallow it in one gulp.
It seems to think that the fish food is very delicious, and it turns around happily, staring at Cao Miaoyan longingly, as if longing for the leftover food in her hand.
Cao Miaoyan smiled immediately, and ignored the other koi, and concentrated on feeding this cheerful koi. After eating the fish food bit by bit, Cao Miaoyan stretched out her hand on the water, and circled the lake for two times like playing. Unexpectedly, the koi followed her movements and circled at the bottom of the lake, very psychic.
Cao Miaoyan immediately had a great time playing with the koi. She ignored the strange eyes of people coming and going looking at her, and spent almost all her time playing with the koi.
The koi, who was full of wine and food, played with her a few times, and suddenly slapped the tail of the fish on the surface of the lake in the water.
The splashed transparent water drops directly hit Cao Miaoyan's body.
"Ah—" Cao Miaoyan screamed in a low voice, and wiped her wet face with her sleeve depressingly, but at this moment, her eyes fell on the back of her hand, but there was something shiny and golden.
Cao Miaoyan thought it was some kind of jewelry, but when she picked it up, she realized that it was a piece of golden scales, which was the kind on the back of koi.
Blinking her eyes in a daze, Cao Miaoyan asked doubtfully, "Is this for me?"
The koi happily swung its tail and spit out a string of bubbles, as if it had achieved its goal. It took one last look at Cao Miaoyan, then turned around and gradually moved away from the lake.
Cao Miaoyan looked at the back of it leaving reluctantly, and always felt that it was a wonderful fate. She put the fish scales in her personal sachet and walked away bouncing, but when she turned around, she suddenly bumped into it. fucked someone.
"Hey!!" Cao Miaoyan covered her bumped left shoulder and glared at the man, "Why are you running, you don't have eyes?"
Only then did she notice that the face of the person who hit her was very pale, the kind of paleness without blood at all, as if soaked in ice at any time, exuding a strange cold air, as long as Cao Miaoyan got close to him, it was unbearable shuddered.
Cao Miaoyan was surprised: "You are..."
"I'm sorry...girl." It seemed that he hadn't spoken for a long time. The man's voice was very hoarse, and suddenly he took out a 100 tael silver note from his sleeve and threw it into her arms, "I will compensate you."
After saying this, the man immediately left the place, leaving only Cao Miaoyan standing there holding the 100 taels of silver, blinking his eyes in confusion, what, is there such a good thing? ?Earned 100 taels of silver for nothing?She is too lucky!
Cao Miaoyan happily put away the bank notes, but what she didn't know was that the scales in the sachet around her waist were emitting faint brilliance.
After getting rid of the strange woman, He Xiuqi resisted the chill in his body and walked forward.
Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that he has been poisoned by a kind of poison, a strange poison called Xiyin powder. Every night, a chill will radiate all over his body, and his body will become stiff and pale.
The poison was extremely weird, and he couldn't get rid of it even after searching all over the world for famous doctors. When he was waiting to die, he heard the magic of the city that never sleeps, so he sold all his belongings and came here to try it.
In the Zuixian Tower, he tried to drink a cup of tea with anticipation, but the poison had no effect on him. Under the huge gap, he walked out of the restaurant in grief and anger, and came to the back garden unknowingly.
The journey to find a way out has not progressed, his eyes are full of confusion, and he is about to leave the city that never sleeps with a sigh, but the road under his feet is blocked by a huge old tree.
He gradually raised his head, and what he saw was a golden world. Different from other trees, this ancient tree was covered with golden leaves, and there were also gleaming golden copper coins hanging on the leaves, connecting them together. , hanging down together with the branches and leaves, the wind blows, tinkling, playing a crisp sound.
"...This is the money tree?" He Xiuqi's eyes were in a daze for a moment, and Chu Zhi's casual suggestion sounded in his mind, "...the money tree that can make wishes come true."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he couldn't help but fell silent. He still believed that there were people who could fulfill their wishes in the city that never sleeps, but if it was said that a tree could fulfill their wishes, then he thought it was a joke.
But maybe life is too desperate, maybe he has no way out, he still closes his eyes devoutly, and makes a wish to recover his health.
At this moment, he seemed to hear the sound of hundreds of musical instruments playing, as if listening to fairy music, his ears were suddenly clear, and the emptiness was full of sacredness, enveloping his whole body in it, with an unprecedented peace of mind.
When he recovered from this mysterious state, he was still in a trance.
After walking away for a long time, his brain was still blank, but the voices of the two of them sounded clearly in his ears for some reason:
"Have you visited those stores? They are all good things. I like a detoxification pill, but the detoxification pill can only relieve cold poison, and I can't use it at all. It's a pity."
When the word "cold poison" was mentioned, He Xiuqi suddenly raised his head, and a look of astonishment quickly appeared in his eyes.
——Relieve cold poison!
Is it really detoxification? ?
The antidote he had been looking for so hard suddenly broke into his ears like this!
He Xiuqi became agitated and ran towards the store almost without thinking.
After spending a lot of money to buy the detoxification elixir, he took it and found that his body no longer emits cold air. He only needs to refine the elixir thoroughly, and he can return to normal.
Happiness, joy, emotion and other emotions erupted in He Xiuqi's heart, how could he be so lucky!You must know that he almost left the Nightless City in despair just now, if someone hadn't mentioned it by chance——
……and many more.
For a moment, he was taken aback.
accidental?Is it really by chance?
The money tree that is said to be able to fulfill people's wishes popped up in his mind uncontrollably.
...just after he said his wish, it really came true
……No way?
Is it really...? !
He opened his mouth wide in surprise.
In addition to restaurants, the most attractive place in the city that never sleeps is the newly opened Qingfeng Pavilion.
It is human nature to like to appreciate beauty. Some people walked outside the door of Qingfeng Pavilion without knowing it, and looked at each other with a smile. Since everyone is here, they must go in and have a look!
Shao Kang was among them.
As a subordinate of Prince Zhao, his ultimate purpose in coming to the Everbright City is to verify for the prince whether the Evernight City is really as magical as the rumors. After personally trying a dish from Zuixianlou, he was shocked and had something to say in his heart. I was so excited that I wished I could send a letter to Prince Feige immediately.
But he heard that there are other interesting places in the city that never sleeps, so he restrained his excitement and visited them one by one. When he finally reached the gate of Qingfeng Pavilion, he immediately rolled his eyes, wondering whether the prince would also like beautiful women, so why not personally visit them for him? It is also a necessary task to see how beautiful the beauties in the city that never sleeps are.
So, he opened the door openly and walked in.
with the usual hook bar
"God, god!"
After a long silence, the person who bet just now blurted out first.
To be able to move more than 200 people out of thin air to a land thousands of miles away, isn't this the way of the gods!
Immediately, everyone was so excited that goosebumps popped out. Sure enough, the legend of the city that never sleeps is true, and the Lord Jiang is also a cultivator of immortals!How could anyone do this but him? !
All the people present were more or less worried about whether the city that never sleeps is as magical as in the legend, whether the rumors are all false, and whether they will be deceived.
But when they first arrived in the city that never sleeps, they gave up this idea. The city that never sleeps is really amazing!
amazing!
Chu Zhi and Ye Jianyi led them inside together. At the beginning, the streets on both sides were just ordinary green trees and flowers covered with beautiful lanterns. Going to feast and feast, there is no dark place.
Someone said with emotion: "The city that never sleeps, the city that never sleeps, no wonder it is called the city that never sleeps. This city really has no night, and this kind of candlelight is extremely luxurious. No city in the world can do it!"
"There are also the buildings on the two sides. Although they haven't arrived yet, they feel magnificent from a distance, and the height is even more shocking. The number of floors... there are at least five floors. There are even higher ones ahead!"
Everyone was like bumpkins entering the city one by one, unable to stop feeling the beauty of the city.
They couldn't wait to go to the center to taste the legendary tea, but Chu Zhi and Ye Jianyi took them to stop outside a long pavilion, with transparent signboards on both sides, and a very detailed map inside.
"It's almost the first time for all of you to come to the city that never sleeps. First, let me explain to you some interesting and delicious places around here." Chu Zhi said with a smile, "Of course, it's best not to come to the city for the first time. Listen, because this place is very different from last time."
Song Ke looked around in amazement, and nodded in agreement. The last time he came, it was obviously not so luxurious.
In just one month, so many places have been built, it really deserves to be a city that never sleeps.
"First of all, the place that everyone is most concerned about is the restaurant in the front. You can choose seats at will on the first and second floors. The third and fourth floors are private rooms, and the price will be more expensive. In addition, I also order the dishes here. The price is not cheap. Please Do what you can."
"The opposite of the restaurant is the inn. The room number is written on the back of the token on your waist. You can go in and rest at any time. It is equipped with hot spring steaming equipment, which can be used at will. No money is required. The 1000 taels of silver for entering the city is the fee."
"There is a music fountain at the back of the inn, which is a good viewing area, and it can be clearly seen from the inn room. Behind the restaurant is a built garden, with small bridges and flowing water, gazebo stone tablets, fish ponds and gardens. And there is a thousand-year-old money tree among them, I heard that making a wish to it can make your wish come true, you can try it.”
Hearing the beautiful scenery he said, everyone couldn't help but start to imagine wildly, but they didn't take the money tree seriously.
Chu Zhi went on to say: "Adjoining the restaurant and the inn are some shops, which sell weapons and medicines, and the products produced in the city that never sleeps are guaranteed. And today, in order to thank you for coming, the city lord specially took out a good weapon. There will be an auction at three o'clock, if you are interested, you can go and have a look."
arms? !
When they heard that the city that never sleeps actually sells weapons, everyone was shocked for a moment.
They came here just for the food, but they didn't expect to have such a harvest!
What is the so-called good weapon, and how good is it? Everyone scratched their heads and wanted to ask in detail, but Chu Zhi continued to introduce: "The most important place is introduced below, which can be said to be the core of the city that never sleeps—"
When he said this, he once again aroused everyone's attention and listened attentively.
And Chu Zhi raised his lips with a smile, and then he said in a long voice: "Its name is Qingfeng Pavilion—a place for drinking and playing music, silk and bamboo orchestras, singing and dancing."
As soon as the words fell, people in the Jianghu showed suddenly realized expressions, and they couldn't help but show some anticipation in their eyes.
There were not many entertainment activities in Dawei, and the singing and dancing alone became popular all over the country.
And in a city, there must be places for singing and dancing like this.
It's just a pity that Chu Zhi wants to emphasize better, he is doing serious business:
"Guests who want to enjoy singing and dancing, and talk about poetry and essays, you can enjoy it. But one thing needs to be reminded, Qingfeng Pavilion pays attention to the word 'clear', please don't rely on your status to mess around." His face showed a bit of coldness , Ye Jianyi on the side started to show murderous aura without saying a word, which immediately made everyone feel awe-inspiring.
But there are still people who can't wait to ask: "Is this Qingfeng Pavilion full of beauties?"
Chu Zhi smiled: "Of course, there must be only a handful of beauties in the city that never sleeps. Even ordinary dancers are amazingly beautiful. Maybe you have never seen such a beautiful person in your life, especially the leader of a famous actress—"
Having said that, he narrowed his eyes meaningfully, arousing everyone's curiosity.
Even ordinary dancers are so beautiful, how beautiful is that leading actress? !
They are so curious!
Hearing the beauty of famous actresses, some people are ready to move and don't want to waste a moment.
Gathering their eager eyes, Chu Zhi smiled secretly, and finally emphasized: "The last area is the Tongtian Pavilion. I think you have heard of it. This is the place where the City Lord Jiang is. If you want to pay a visit to the City Lord , I will meet you naturally at the auction at midnight, and please don't trespass into Tongtian Pavilion without authorization!"
He swept across the obvious thorns in the crowd, and smiled slightly: "Otherwise, Sword God's smile is not a joke."
"..."
Looking at Ye Jianyi who was as cold as ice, everyone shuddered silently.
Everyone in the Jianghu knows that Ye Jianyi is not scary when he is indifferent, but the scary thing is that he smiles, which means you are dead.
Keeping in mind that the road that can never lead to Tongtian Pavilion, everyone nodded repeatedly to express their understanding.
But someone asked: "What should I do if something happens and I want to find you?"
Chu Zhi said: "I will always stay in the back kitchen of Zuixiang Building. If there is anything, you can come to me. If it is an emergency, please break the tokens on your waist as soon as possible, and the city owner will naturally feel it."
Everyone was stunned, and saw the token at their waists again. This token could not only teleport them, but also summon the city lord if something happened.
This is the end of Chu Zhi's introduction, we can disband on the spot.
Although these guests are free to go anywhere, but they only know the beauty of the drinks and tea in the restaurant, they are not very interested in other places, so they follow Chu Zhi to Zuixianlou, which makes Chu Zhi have a headache .
Although Zuixian Tower can accommodate so many guests, if he, Chu Zhi, cooks for so many people, won't he be exhausted? ?
He quickly explained: "Everyone, don't rush to the restaurant. Shouldn't you have fun in the city that never sleeps during the long night? It will take more time for everyone to go to the restaurant and wait for the food. Why don't you go to other places to have a look first? I'm tired of playing. Come have some supper, how about?"
After mentioning this, everyone realized the problem, looked at each other, and dispersed in twos and threes. After all, there are still four hours, so don't worry about it.
"I'm going to visit that fountain, is there anyone with me?"
"I'm very curious about the scenery in the back garden, let's go there first!"
"Why don't you find out what weapons will be auctioned in the next few minutes, or calculate how much money it will cost."
"Of course I'm going to Qingfeng Pavilion to see the beauties, hahaha heroes are also curious about the appearance of the leader, let's go! Let's go together!"
In this way, the number of guests going to Zuixianlou plummeted, and the pressure was relieved a lot, but there are still many people who stubbornly go to Zuixianlou first, because they know a secret, that is, the wine in Zuixianlou is limited!If you go late, you won't be able to buy it.
Looking at those people who left without knowing it, Tao Wenmao slowly felt a little joy in his heart. His reputation in the Jianghu is not bad, he is Tong Yuanliang's close friend, and he is good at using sticks.
Just a few months ago, he and Tong Yuanliang were stuck on the third level, and neither of them had broken through, but after just visiting the city that never sleeps, Tong Yuanliang quickly broke through to the fourth level, which surprised him.
Hearing from Tong Yuanliang that a pot of wine in the city that never sleeps has such an effect, his eyes suddenly lit up, but unfortunately he searched for the location of the city that never sleeps every day, but he never found it. Gotta moan.
And on a certain day, he finally heard the news about the city that never sleeps, so he sold all his valuable possessions, and immediately got up and went to the capital.
The main purpose of his coming to the city that never sleeps is for the magical pot of wine. It is said that only one pot is sold, and he must not let anyone preempt it.
After following the crowd to Zuixian Tower, Tao Wenmao admired the luxurious environment in the building and wanted to choose a good seat to sit down.
But before he moved, someone approached him and said, "Your Excellency is Tao Wenmao, Tao Daxia?"
Tao Wenmao looked to the right, and guessed the identity of the visitor from the fat figure and the Yonghua cloth: "Then you must be the owner of Wantong Bank, Pang Tianzong, Boss Pang."
Pang Tianzong has a round body, a fat face, always smiling, and a lot of money, very rich, but he is a master at using hidden weapons, no one dares to underestimate this person.
Suddenly being accosted by such a person, Tao Wenmao was still a little puzzled. He nodded calmly and saluted, but moved his body to his seat: "What can you do for me, Your Excellency?"
Pang Tian smiled and didn't care about his guard, and said in a warm voice: "I'm a little interested in the box, but the box for one person is boring after all, so I want to find a few like-minded heroes to chat and drink together. I don't know if Tao Daxia is interested. interest."
Tao Wenmao was startled, and glanced back, only to realize that there were two people behind him, both of whom were well-known heroes in the Jianghu.
Pang Tianzong continued: "The box needs 1000 taels of silver, and we share it equally between each of us, but when ordering, we can each order a dish and share it equally. Wouldn't it be possible to eat more delicious dishes?"
This sentence pierced Tao Wenmao's heart, and his heart moved. One person can order two dishes at most, but people can taste all kinds of dishes together, and the dishes in the city that never sleeps have magical effects. The more the better, the better. , the proposal is perfect.
He was a cheerful person, and immediately cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Boss Pang, for inviting me. Then I will be more polite, let's go together!"
"Okay." Pang Tianzong nodded in satisfaction, and when he turned his head, he suddenly saw a figure passing by, and quickly shouted, "Hero Song, do you want to join our box!"
Song Ke was standing there, showing a bit of confusion when he stopped him.Because he didn't know this person at all!
But he found that everyone was staring at him with incomparably hot eyes. After thinking about it, he finally realized.
After all, he was the only one who was familiar with the city that never sleeps, so he must have wanted to get closer and collect information, but he also couldn't refuse Pang Tianzong's box strategy, so he obediently agreed.
The five of them walked to the upstairs box together, and the rest of the people saw this and their eyes lit up, and they all learned how to form gangs.
But when they were wasting time, Pang Tianzong and the others had already taken their seats in the box.
The theme of this box is plum blossoms, and there is a beautiful view of man-made falling snow in the room. The gorgeous red plums bloom all the way to the glass window, as if you are in the world of plum gardens, which makes you feel refreshed.
As soon as he entered the house, even Pang Tianzong, who had seen all kinds of treasures in his family, was amazed.
It wasn't until the shop waiter came to the box to offer the menu that everyone reluctantly looked away and sat down at the table.
While they were looking at the menu curiously, Song Ke looked at the waiter from the famous shop with a surprised expression, and couldn't help asking, "When did you come to the city that never sleeps?"
When he came last time, there were only Ye Jianyi and the city owner in the city that never sleeps. Unexpectedly, in just one month, there would be a waiter.
The waiter smiled and said, "Just half a month ago."
Seeing that the little girl in this store has no martial arts but can stay in the city that never sleeps, everyone has different thoughts, and can't help but continue to ask: "How did you get in?"
"Returning guest officer, the young one happened to meet the city lord when he was running for his life because of the famine. The city lord saw that the young one was about to die, so he left the young one to stay temporarily in the city that never sleeps and gave him some porridge."
Speaking of this, the waiter in the shop had tears in his eyes, scratched his head embarrassingly, and told his true feelings: "The city lord is very kind and virtuous, and I am very grateful. I am willing to do odd jobs for the city lord here. come down."
No one doubted the authenticity of his words, and they all sighed, and were a little moved by City Lord Jiang's kindness.
This is the flexibility and authenticity of the NPCs produced by the system. They all have their own backgrounds and their own personalities.
Song Ke nervously said subconsciously: "Then can people like us stay in the city that never sleeps?"
Everyone's breathing was stagnant, and their eyes were a little more anxious. Just drinking a cup of tea in the city that never sleeps has such a miraculous effect, so if you stay here for half a month, won't you be the best in martial arts in the world!It seems to have found a shortcut to invincibility!
"This..." the waiter pursed his lips in embarrassment, and said with a wry smile, "Guest officer, first, the city that never sleeps only accepts people who are homeless and unable to survive, and there is no shortage of manpower. Second, as long as you stay in the city that never sleeps It is necessary to sign a contract, and you will never leave the city for eternity, and live a busy life upside down day and night. You should think carefully about it."
Now that everyone is silent, they will never leave the city that never sleeps, so what's the use of martial arts, forget it.
After a moment of weird silence, Song Ke changed the topic in a lively atmosphere: "Everyone, let's order first, one dish for each person?"
Everyone had a lot of banknotes in their pockets, and they were rich and powerful, so they nodded happily.
When they looked down at the menu, the corners of their mouths twitched in pain. As they expected, every dish made by Chu Zhi was very expensive, ranging from 5000 taels at the lowest to 10,000+ taels at the highest. It was simply too expensive. It's just eating money.
But they have never heard of the names of the dishes written on the menu, and they don't know how they taste.
The shop waiter first explained: "Because Pang Keguan spent 15 taels to purchase the token, according to the rules, he can give the guest a soup, a dish and a dessert, and he can choose freely. In addition, in order to allow customers to better identify the recipes, the recipes are divided into different flavors. They are divided into four categories: sweet, sour, salty, and spicy. The price of each category is similar, so you can choose the dishes you like.”
Tao Wenmao suddenly said: "I heard that this spicy taste is created by the great hero Chu. Even the emperor praised it after eating it. This spicy taste must be tasted."
"That's right. Hero Chu is famous all over the world for his spiciness. I've been looking forward to it for a long time." Pang Tianzong nodded and said, "Then choose the boiled pork slices recommended later!"
Everyone followed his fingers to look down, only to find that there are little stars behind each recipe. The dishes with more stars will have the word "recommended" written on them at the end. The boiled pork slices are five stars, which is full.
Song Ke couldn't help laughing, he didn't expect Chu Zhi to have such a childlike innocence, this menu is really interesting.
"This dessert... recommend tira and misu? What is this tiramisu?" Song Ke asked curiously.
The waiter in the shop only said: "This is a different dessert carefully created by the hero Chu, please have a try."
So, the five people ordered five different dishes, covering all the tastes, and Pang Tianzong ordered another "fragrant bayberry concubine soup" for free.
I thought it would be slow if there were too many people, but I didn't expect that the waiter in the shop brought the soup just after ordering.
It is said that the soup is actually a summer summer drink, but the red bayberry and lychee used in it are very rare in the Jianghu. Invigorating.
Pang Tianzong only took a sip, and then showed a comfortable smile, which made the others scratch their ears and cheeks, very curious.
Pang Tianzong didn't hide it, he filled a bowl for everyone, and everyone couldn't wait to take a sip, and surprise appeared in their eyes.
"This soup is actually cold, and it matches this midsummer very well."
"Sweet and sour, the flesh is full and juicy, it's wonderful! It's wonderful!! I don't know what this ingredient is, but if I can taste it at home, it will be a fairyland on earth."
After Song Ke tasted it, he also showed a relaxed expression, but he had the experience to close his eyes immediately to check his dantian, and opened it happily after a long time: "It turns out that this soup has the effect of calming and purifying the heart. I feel very open and happy."
When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized that they were not just drinking and having fun in the city that never sleeps.They also checked their dantians one by one, and they were really excited.
After meditating for almost a day, the internal strength can be multiplied, which is definitely a good thing!
I didn't expect a bowl of soup to have such an effect, what about other dishes?
The eager eyes of wolves fell on other dishes, and everyone eagerly picked up their chopsticks. The rest of the dishes were as delicious as imagined. Even the original spicy taste was a bit choking at first, but somehow they couldn’t put their chopsticks down for a bite After swallowing one bite, I was very happy to eat.
"As expected of Hero Chu, the No. 1 chef in Jianghu, this spicy taste is really amazing. If I can't eat spicy food in the future, how will I live!"
"When I think about leaving the city that never sleeps tomorrow morning, my heart feels like bleeding!"
"This is called pepper? It's a godsend, it's so delicious, why isn't it made outside!"
"It's not because of the peppers. You have seen other dishes outside. Are there any dishes made by Hero Chu? They are all made by Hero Chu!"
"If you want me to say that this dessert is delicious, you all come and try it. I have never tasted such a soft and sweet dessert. I have never tasted it before. It would be a shame not to try it!"
……
Everyone was exploring, savoring, and making comments one after another, and they stopped their chopsticks when they were almost finished eating.
Seeing that they were all addicted to appetite, Song Ke shook his head helplessly, knocked on the table, and reminded: "Have you all discovered the wonder of these dishes?"
"Uh..." This question made the rest of the people stunned. They couldn't wait to eat the food, and they didn't have time to care about other things. They immediately felt ashamed, "This... what does Song Daxia think?"
Song Ke smiled helplessly, and said directly: "According to what I have seen, this sweet taste has the effect of clearing and beautifying the Lingtai, the spicy taste has the effect of gathering qi and blood to increase strength, the salty taste has the effect of increasing internal strength, and the sour taste Well, it seems that Ruyan has the effect of increasing the sensitivity of the body... but it's just a guess."
If Chu Zhi were here, he would be surprised. He deliberately added different side effects to each cuisine. Unexpectedly, Song Ke tasted all of them after eating it once. What a wonder!
But he's not here, he's hanging up.
Fortunately, the system has an automatic hosting function, so he doesn't need to do the cooking himself. He only needs to put it on the hook in the back kitchen, and the speed will be soaring.
Greatly reduces the stress of cooking.
The rest of the people were also dumbfounded when they heard Song Ke's introduction. On the one hand, they were keen on Song Ke, and on the other hand, they were surprised by the dishes in the city that never sleeps.
They felt their own bodies, and it turned out that their physical fitness and internal strength had been raised a bit, and they even just ate a dish.
"Amazing, amazing!!"
Everyone has no culture, and can only use one word to travel around the world.
"If I hadn't known the Great Xia Chu, I would almost have thought he was an immortal descended from the sky!"
"How can there be such a terrifying effect of dishes? The dishes made by the great hero Chu are definitely worthy of the money. Even if it is ten thousand taels, it is difficult to buy these effects!!"
"Yeah yeah!!"
Everyone who was still complaining about eating money just now smiled happily, their hearts didn't hurt anymore, and their hands were generous. They wished they could order ten more dishes to increase their internal strength!
At this time, Tao Wenmao, who was immersed in joy, was shocked suddenly and stood up: "Oh, why did I forget the business!"
He was extremely annoyed in his heart, and almost shouted out the door with all his strength: "The waiter! The waiter!!"
Everyone was amazed by his actions, but Pang Tianzong immediately pulled down the copper bell on the wall: "Don't be anxious, Daxia Tao, just pull down the bell and the waiter from the shop will come, you and I can wait with peace of mind."
It was only then that Tao Wenmao thought of the reminder from the waiter before he left, and he sat down again in embarrassment. It wasn't until the waiter hurried over that he asked patiently, "I want to buy wine, and the name is Huangliang Yimeng. selling?!"
Among the group, only Song Ke understood that Huang Liang's dream was the day Tong Daxia drank the wine that saw his master's sword skills greatly improved, and gave Tao Wenmao a thoughtful look.
Not many people know this information at the moment, the shop clerk smiled and said: "Of course, but this wine only sells three jugs, this guest officer is really lucky."
Not waiting for Tao Wenmao to heave a sigh of relief, the waiter asked again: "This wine is ten thousand taels of silver for a pot, do you need it?"
"What?!" Tao Wenmao was shocked, "Isn't it 5000 taels of silver!"
Hearing this, everyone realized that he had obtained hidden information from the previous group of people who came to the city that never sleeps, and they couldn't help pricking up their ears.
The shop waiter smiled: "Guest officer, it was a trial operation at that time, so the price will be much cheaper."
Tao Wenmao gritted his teeth, but he had nothing to say, he came here for this pot of wine, even if it was expensive, he had to order it!
Why is Yuan Liang so lucky, he casually snatched the quota in the city that never sleeps, broke through ahead of time with less money, sour, so sour!
He took out the bank note in pain: "Come have a pot!"
The waiter in the shop suddenly smiled: "The customer has a good eye, this wine is very difficult, and now there are only two jugs left."
After he said this, Tao Wenmao's face became better, and the others became more curious, and couldn't help asking: "Hero Tao, this wine is very valuable, it must be very precious, what effect does it have?"
Now that he bought it, Tao Wenmao didn't hide it anymore, and made a personal favor: "To tell you the truth, I have a friend who drank this wine, and the next day he broke through the realm of swordsmanship in his dream, and his martial arts greatly improved! "
"What?!" Everyone was shocked, their eyes glistened, they didn't expect this wine to have such a powerful effect, they had to order it!
For those who are not short of money, for example, Pang Tianzong immediately ordered [-] taels of Huangliang Yimeng. The others looked at each other and were very depressed. The money was really too much, and they really couldn't afford it.
Fortunately, Song Ke reminded that the rest of the wine also had other effects, and introduced it. Everyone ordered a pot according to their needs, and returned with a full load.
The guests in this room had a good time eating, and the rest of the guests also had a good time.
The small bridge and flowing water in the backyard are quiet and leisurely, and dreamlike candles spread all around, as if breaking into a wonderful illusion.
Even among the flowers without candles, there are some obvious green lights shining, which is the natural beauty emitted by fireflies, and it is the original landscape specially preserved by the city that never sleeps.
The sky is full of stars, bright and expansive.
But the Ten Thousand Flowers Lamp Stand is not only surrounded by lights, but even looking up at the sky is full of floating Kongming lanterns, swaying in the night wind, shining brilliantly into the eyes.
If you are interested, you can buy it for a tael of silver, write a sentence and let it fly in the air, and your wish will stay in the night forever.
In the stele pavilion, Dunhuang exotic murals are engraved on the walls and ceilings for people to appreciate. In the koi pond, golden fish swim comfortably among the lotus flowers.
Cao Miaoyan was fascinated by the beauty of the lake and couldn't look away.
She is the daughter of the head of the Moon Pity Sect, and she is very much loved. Hearing that the Evernight City is interesting enough, the head of the door gave ten thousand taels of silver in exchange for her token.But at this moment, she didn't buy weapons, didn't taste delicious food, but looked at the golden koi at the bottom of the lake with a smile, showing joy.
The lake was a little low, and she couldn't stretch out her hand to pick up the water waves, so she picked up the moonlight with regret, and looked down. She wanted to feed these koi some food, but she was empty.
But the signs standing around attracted her attention: 【Do not enter the water.If you want to feed the koi, please go to the restaurant and ask]
Cao Miaoyan's eyes lit up, and she ran to the restaurant immediately, but the waiter who heard her request took out a small bag of fish food, and suddenly stretched out his hand to her: "Ten taels of silver."
Cao Miaoyan: "..."
???
"You need ten taels of silver to feed the fish, you are stealing money!!"
She was angry and unwilling, but the waiter in the shop just stood there leisurely, saying that one tael of ten taels of silver was indispensable.
There is no way, for those lovely koi, Cao Miaoyan finally paid the money depressedly, and returned to the koi pond with a small bag of fish food.
It was hard to adjust the mood to feed the koi, but the koi didn’t even look at the food that fell into the water, and even gurgled and bubbled, and turned away. Cao Miaoyan could imagine that they tui, rolled their eyes and left expression.
Cao Miaoyan: ...The stone hammer!This is a black shop!Just grabbing money!pay back! !
She stomped angrily and was about to go to the shop waiter to argue, but at this moment, a slow-moving koi suddenly swam towards the fish food, and opened its mouth to swallow it in one gulp.
It seems to think that the fish food is very delicious, and it turns around happily, staring at Cao Miaoyan longingly, as if longing for the leftover food in her hand.
Cao Miaoyan smiled immediately, and ignored the other koi, and concentrated on feeding this cheerful koi. After eating the fish food bit by bit, Cao Miaoyan stretched out her hand on the water, and circled the lake for two times like playing. Unexpectedly, the koi followed her movements and circled at the bottom of the lake, very psychic.
Cao Miaoyan immediately had a great time playing with the koi. She ignored the strange eyes of people coming and going looking at her, and spent almost all her time playing with the koi.
The koi, who was full of wine and food, played with her a few times, and suddenly slapped the tail of the fish on the surface of the lake in the water.
The splashed transparent water drops directly hit Cao Miaoyan's body.
"Ah—" Cao Miaoyan screamed in a low voice, and wiped her wet face with her sleeve depressingly, but at this moment, her eyes fell on the back of her hand, but there was something shiny and golden.
Cao Miaoyan thought it was some kind of jewelry, but when she picked it up, she realized that it was a piece of golden scales, which was the kind on the back of koi.
Blinking her eyes in a daze, Cao Miaoyan asked doubtfully, "Is this for me?"
The koi happily swung its tail and spit out a string of bubbles, as if it had achieved its goal. It took one last look at Cao Miaoyan, then turned around and gradually moved away from the lake.
Cao Miaoyan looked at the back of it leaving reluctantly, and always felt that it was a wonderful fate. She put the fish scales in her personal sachet and walked away bouncing, but when she turned around, she suddenly bumped into it. fucked someone.
"Hey!!" Cao Miaoyan covered her bumped left shoulder and glared at the man, "Why are you running, you don't have eyes?"
Only then did she notice that the face of the person who hit her was very pale, the kind of paleness without blood at all, as if soaked in ice at any time, exuding a strange cold air, as long as Cao Miaoyan got close to him, it was unbearable shuddered.
Cao Miaoyan was surprised: "You are..."
"I'm sorry...girl." It seemed that he hadn't spoken for a long time. The man's voice was very hoarse, and suddenly he took out a 100 tael silver note from his sleeve and threw it into her arms, "I will compensate you."
After saying this, the man immediately left the place, leaving only Cao Miaoyan standing there holding the 100 taels of silver, blinking his eyes in confusion, what, is there such a good thing? ?Earned 100 taels of silver for nothing?She is too lucky!
Cao Miaoyan happily put away the bank notes, but what she didn't know was that the scales in the sachet around her waist were emitting faint brilliance.
After getting rid of the strange woman, He Xiuqi resisted the chill in his body and walked forward.
Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that he has been poisoned by a kind of poison, a strange poison called Xiyin powder. Every night, a chill will radiate all over his body, and his body will become stiff and pale.
The poison was extremely weird, and he couldn't get rid of it even after searching all over the world for famous doctors. When he was waiting to die, he heard the magic of the city that never sleeps, so he sold all his belongings and came here to try it.
In the Zuixian Tower, he tried to drink a cup of tea with anticipation, but the poison had no effect on him. Under the huge gap, he walked out of the restaurant in grief and anger, and came to the back garden unknowingly.
The journey to find a way out has not progressed, his eyes are full of confusion, and he is about to leave the city that never sleeps with a sigh, but the road under his feet is blocked by a huge old tree.
He gradually raised his head, and what he saw was a golden world. Different from other trees, this ancient tree was covered with golden leaves, and there were also gleaming golden copper coins hanging on the leaves, connecting them together. , hanging down together with the branches and leaves, the wind blows, tinkling, playing a crisp sound.
"...This is the money tree?" He Xiuqi's eyes were in a daze for a moment, and Chu Zhi's casual suggestion sounded in his mind, "...the money tree that can make wishes come true."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he couldn't help but fell silent. He still believed that there were people who could fulfill their wishes in the city that never sleeps, but if it was said that a tree could fulfill their wishes, then he thought it was a joke.
But maybe life is too desperate, maybe he has no way out, he still closes his eyes devoutly, and makes a wish to recover his health.
At this moment, he seemed to hear the sound of hundreds of musical instruments playing, as if listening to fairy music, his ears were suddenly clear, and the emptiness was full of sacredness, enveloping his whole body in it, with an unprecedented peace of mind.
When he recovered from this mysterious state, he was still in a trance.
After walking away for a long time, his brain was still blank, but the voices of the two of them sounded clearly in his ears for some reason:
"Have you visited those stores? They are all good things. I like a detoxification pill, but the detoxification pill can only relieve cold poison, and I can't use it at all. It's a pity."
When the word "cold poison" was mentioned, He Xiuqi suddenly raised his head, and a look of astonishment quickly appeared in his eyes.
——Relieve cold poison!
Is it really detoxification? ?
The antidote he had been looking for so hard suddenly broke into his ears like this!
He Xiuqi became agitated and ran towards the store almost without thinking.
After spending a lot of money to buy the detoxification elixir, he took it and found that his body no longer emits cold air. He only needs to refine the elixir thoroughly, and he can return to normal.
Happiness, joy, emotion and other emotions erupted in He Xiuqi's heart, how could he be so lucky!You must know that he almost left the Nightless City in despair just now, if someone hadn't mentioned it by chance——
……and many more.
For a moment, he was taken aback.
accidental?Is it really by chance?
The money tree that is said to be able to fulfill people's wishes popped up in his mind uncontrollably.
...just after he said his wish, it really came true
……No way?
Is it really...? !
He opened his mouth wide in surprise.
In addition to restaurants, the most attractive place in the city that never sleeps is the newly opened Qingfeng Pavilion.
It is human nature to like to appreciate beauty. Some people walked outside the door of Qingfeng Pavilion without knowing it, and looked at each other with a smile. Since everyone is here, they must go in and have a look!
Shao Kang was among them.
As a subordinate of Prince Zhao, his ultimate purpose in coming to the Everbright City is to verify for the prince whether the Evernight City is really as magical as the rumors. After personally trying a dish from Zuixianlou, he was shocked and had something to say in his heart. I was so excited that I wished I could send a letter to Prince Feige immediately.
But he heard that there are other interesting places in the city that never sleeps, so he restrained his excitement and visited them one by one. When he finally reached the gate of Qingfeng Pavilion, he immediately rolled his eyes, wondering whether the prince would also like beautiful women, so why not personally visit them for him? It is also a necessary task to see how beautiful the beauties in the city that never sleeps are.
So, he opened the door openly and walked in.
