Chapter 44 Arriving at Skylark City
Chapter 44 Arriving at Skylark City
Skylark City is the largest town for cultivating immortals within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles. Needless to say, it is prosperous and prosperous inside, and the inspection at the gate is also very strict.Moreover, the gatekeeper monks looked more arrogant than one, not as if they were guarding the gate, but as if the emperor was patrolling the country, they almost looked at people with their nostrils.
The guards are mainly Nascent Soul monks, and from time to time you can see individual Huashen monks, and the Danjie monks can only serve tea and water.With such a powerful configuration, it is no wonder that each of them is so arrogant. Even if the monks who entered the city were a little angry, they dared not speak out when they saw such a situation.But fortunately, I also know that high-level monks should not be provoked casually, and they are still polite when speaking.
Gu Jiugui stood at the back of the long line and sized up the white chickens following the city guard monks. It wasn't because he was greedy, but because he noticed that the waiting monks looked at the chicken with burning eyes. .It is said that this is the treasure of the city of Skylark, Skylark.It is a spirit beast unique to Skylark City.
However, Gu Jiugui obviously had no interest in spiritual pets. At the beginning, he thought that the little golden snake was still young and had good potential, and he kissed himself, so he thought it might be good to have one.In the end, I haven't raised him yet, so I ran away like that, and I feel stuffy when I think about it.He is completely uninterested in the spiritual pet.Why don't you take a look at the little Xiao Jing'an in his arms, wrapped in his black cloak, sleeping very sweetly.Gu Jiugui felt that he couldn't get enough of Xiao Jing'an like this.
When the two left there that day, they picked up a lot of things in the storage ring, including the map they needed.Because Gu Jiugui advanced, his speed was much faster, Xiao Jingan appeared in front of him again, and he was not in a hurry to go back for a while.So the two of them didn't look for the teleportation array anymore, they just flew over directly, this flight lasted for more than three months.If it wasn't for Gu Jiugui still thinking about Gu Zishu, the two of them would have walked even slower.
The reason why I walk so slowly is not because I am traveling in mountains and rivers.Of course, there may be some meaning in it, but the most important thing is that Xiao Jing'an is practicing Gu Jiugui.It didn't mean anything else, it was just a simple practice, because Xiao Jing'an couldn't stand Gu Jiugui's embarrassing style of play anymore, and it was his master who lost face if he said it!
So, Gu Jiugui, who was forced to practice swordsmanship all the way, was called an asshole, and he was definitely in pain and joy!Although there was a beautiful master by his side, the process was still a bit horrible.Of course, the effect is also good, at least when Gu Jiugui is holding a sword, he can still scare a few laymen.
In fact, Gu Jiugui had learned that set of swordsmanship in his previous life, but because of his rank, it was not as profound as what Xiao Jingan taught him this time.So what he was struggling with was how to make Xiao Jingan not be suspicious.You know, if you want to deceive this kind of old monster who has lived for an unknown number of years, it is probably a bit more difficult than him attacking the god transformation again.
Fortunately, although he acted a bit stupid, he finally managed to deceive him without any risk, and his swordsmanship finally had its roots.Of course, what he is using now is not the stupid rabbit that doesn't have any aggressiveness, but a spirit sword that was pulled from someone who doesn't know who is unlucky. There is nothing wrong with it, and he still has several rings in his storage ring, which may be useless.
The city gates for monks and mortals are different. What is a little strange is that the turnover of people on the mortal side is very fast, but it is the monks who check very rigorously.Probably the relationship between local differences!Gu Jiugui didn't think much about it, he hugged Xiao Jing'an and carefully kept a certain distance from others, without showing any impatience at all.
Fortunately, he is a monk after all, no matter how slow he is, he will not be able to go there, and soon it will be Gu Jiugui's turn.He consciously took out a handful of spirit stones and put them on the table, he understands that entering the city is a waste of time!
The cultivator who was interrogating didn't say anything, but the cultivator who had been closing his eyes and recuperating stood up, pushed the spirit stone back to Gu Jiugui, and said with a smile, "A person like fellow Taoist, where is he not a guest?" It’s too late for the city lord to welcome you, so why do you need a city entry fee? This is your identity jade token, please burn your name on it, if you accidentally lose it, just come and get a replacement!” He said and handed a jade token In front of Gu Jiugui.
Gu Jiugui took it, entered his name in it, then nodded slightly at the cultivator who transformed the spirit, indicating that he understood, then entered the city with his precious master in his arms.
The cultivator who was frozen in place and waited for him to say a few words: "..." Which old monster is this who came out of the mountain and closed up?Why don't you even know how to be polite!He even stood up from the chair to talk to him, how dare he not give him face? !
However, when he thought that it was a troubled time now, and the city lord was still waiting to hire someone, no matter how much anger he had, he would dissipate, and Fu sat back on the seat and closed his eyes.It's just that although people seem to care about nothing, their spiritual consciousness pays close attention to every move of everyone around them, checking for suspicious persons.
When Gu Jiugui stepped into the city gate, his arms suddenly moved. He lowered his head, and saw a small head protruding from under his cloak, looking around with sleepy eyes, "Are you here?"
"En." Gu Jiugui's eyes were soft, and he rubbed his slightly messy little head, "Xiao Xiao, do you want to sleep for a while?"
Xiao Jing'an rolled his eyes, this traitor didn't mean to say that he is so young now, if he called his master how eye-catching, etc., he insisted on calling him Xiao Xiaozhan to take advantage of his words, so rebellious and outrageous, he is not afraid of being struck by lightning!But it seems that their magic cultivators specialize in rebellious people, so they don't bother to care about this rebel.
The streets are bustling with various stalls and hawkers.But at the beginning this section of the road is almost full of mortals, and ordinary monks don't bother to stay here.Gu Jiugui stared at a peddler who was selling candied haws. There was a two or three-year-old doll dragging his adult to play around, and he would not leave unless he bought it. Finally, the adult got annoyed and bought a bunch of them with money. , the child left happily after biting the candied haws.
Xiao Jing'an looked at Gu Jiugui's expression, and his face turned black, "I don't want it!" He is not a real three-year-old baby, what kind of mortal child does he eat? !
Gu Jiugui smiled, ignored someone's protest, took out a piece of spirit stone and threw it in the vendor's hand, and picked a bunch for himself to hold in his hand.Seeing the spirit stone in his hand, the peddler trembled, and hurriedly wanted to return it, "Immortal... Immortal master... this is worthless, use it, you can't use the fairy stone..."
Gu Jiugui didn't even look at him, he held the candied haws in one hand and his family Xiao Xiao in the other, turned around and left.The peddler held the spirit stone in his hand for a while, before realizing that it was given to him by the fairy master. He was so happy that he didn't even sell the candied haws. He took the things and turned around and went home to show off!This is a huge windfall!
Gu Jiugui took a bite of candied haws, and the sweet and sour taste spread in his mouth. To be honest, for him who is used to eating all kinds of delicacies, it is really not delicious... However, sometimes, the taste Not the taste, just the feeling.
Gu Jiugui bit another one into his mouth, and while chewing, he squinted at Xiao Jingan, "Do you want Xiao Xiao to have one too?" He said, bringing the candied haws in front of Xiao Jingan.
Xiao Jing'an's face was full of black lines, and he firmly refused, "No!"
Gu Jiugui was not angry, he spit out the hawthorn seeds in his mouth, and took another bite. The taste was so sour that he squinted his eyes, "When I was young, my grandfather would take me shopping from time to time, and I didn't know why at that time. , I really like this candied haws. Every time I see it, I can’t walk. I have to eat a bunch of them before I go. Sometimes I will tell my grandpa stupidly that I want to sell candied haws when I grow up! The old man scolded me for being worthless."
When Gu Jiugui talked about Qing Miao, his expression was slightly sad and nostalgic. After all, he was the one who raised him. Even if the path he chose for him was not what he wanted, it was out of his heart to protect him.
Xiao Jing'an looked at Gu Jiugui's expression, frowned, and opened his small mouth to bite off one of the bunch of candied haws.As soon as he chewed it, his good-looking eyebrows frowned even more. After chewing a few more times, his eyebrows were all wrinkled. He looked at Gu Jiugui in surprise. He didn't expect this traitor to like this kind of thing.Just one, he endured and endured so that he didn't spit it out. After swallowing it with difficulty, he felt that the taste in his mouth was not right. He closed his mouth tightly, not opening it alive or dead.
Seeing Xiao Xiao like this, Gu Jiugui burst into joy.It was always like this, this person always tolerated him differently from others, even if the whole world said that this person would not fall in love with him, he would not believe it.Even what such a person gave him was not love, so who is qualified to say love?
"What are you going to do now?" In order not to be fed that weird and unpalatable food anymore, Xiao Jingan began to actively find topics.
Gu Jiugui didn't expose him, so he ate the remaining few in twos and said, "Don't worry, just find a place to live first, just take your time and find an opportunity." The best thing is to borrow, If you can't afford to think about breaking in secretly, there will always be a way!
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Jiugui stepped into another street. Although it was still very lively, the people here seemed a lot more reserved, and the sellers also set up a stall, sitting there quietly, wishing The attitude of the victim to take the bait.
Xiao Jingan stared at such a bald head with a slightly surprised expression.Looking at his expression, Gu Jiugui thought that he was still asleep when he entered the city and didn't see the monks entering and leaving the city gate.I passed by a town on the way and didn't go in. I didn't know anything about it, so I explained, "There are many orthodox traditions in the Hengyang world. In addition to immortal cultivation, demon cultivation, and sword cultivation, there are also Buddhist cultivation, Confucianism cultivation, sound cultivation, and medical cultivation. , Kitchen repair, Dan repair... Wait, there are so many of them!"
After listening, Xiao Jing'an sighed, "Sure enough, everyone says that there are three thousand ways, how could it be possible that there are only immortal cultivators, demon cultivators and sword cultivators? The Cangming Realm is indeed incomplete!"
"What?" Gu Jiugui was a little surprised, this was the first time he had heard such a statement.
"Haven't you ever wondered why there are no Mahayana monks? When it comes to the Mahayana period, everyone will find ways to go to other realms. Because Cangming can't ascend, and the early Mahayana is the top. Someone once suspected that it was the reason for the loss of Taoism. But because the monks who went to other realms never came back, this statement has always been just a rumor, and no one has confirmed it."
