i have a sword fairy

Chapter 324 Dongcheng Business and Xiaoyao Mansion

Zhao Rong remembered that it seemed that Gui had just woken up on the wedding night in the bridal chamber.

After learning that he was in the Xuanhuang Realm, it asked him many inexplicable questions in one breath.

It's hard not to impress Zhao Rong with those weird nouns.

Among them, Gui Bian asked if the Duyou Ji family was still in Wangque Continent.

Oh, by the way, along with it, there is also a family called Qingyang Han's, and a sect called Weiranzong.

When people first arrive in a new environment, they will always subconsciously look for familiar things to resist the fear of unfamiliarity and gain a sense of security.

It's instinct.

Zhao Rong nodded slightly.

So, for Gui, who had a very high position before his fall.

Wangque Continent, which is located in a corner of the Nine Continents, among the familiar people and things that make it worth paying attention to, this Duyou Ji family ranks first, even second to none?

Later, when Zhao Rong occasionally asked curiously, Gui mostly skipped over it vaguely and didn't go into details.

However, its tone and few words made Zhao Rong aware of some useful information.

Gui seems to have a rift with a family named 'Ji'.

When Zhao Rong asked for the first time, it taunted him with a vicious tongue, "a useless family hiding under the blessing of our ancestors".

This ridicule is worth pondering.

In addition, in Gui's discourse, the Duyou Ji family should be the branch of this 'Ji family' in Wangquezhou.

And it was they who first established this lonely city standing at the ends of the earth.

These are all confirmed and coincident with the legends in Miss Lu's mouth just now.

The Duyou Ji family with a rare name is an ancient family that inherits the powerful King You.

It was the former owner of Wangque Island in history.

Now, like all old and ancient things, it has disappeared into the long river of time?

Anyway, Zhao Rong had never heard of this name from anyone other than Gui.

Even in Miss Lu Wan's story, only the word You Wang was mentioned.

At this moment, thinking of this, Zhao Rong's expression suddenly changed.

Immediately, he pursed his lips again, and said calmly: "Miss Lu, is there a family surnamed Ji in Duyou City?"

Lu Wan thought for a moment, then shook her head, "Ji? It's such a strange name, where did you hear the young master. There is no famous family in the city with this surname."

Zhao Rong nodded slightly.

The family name of You Wang is Ji.

So, he can be considered to have learned a secret knowledge that has long been lost?

In addition, Zhao Rong felt that the story of "the origin of Wangque" that Lu Wan just told was quite interesting.

Leaving aside whether the story is true or not, let alone whether the name of the Wangque Continent was changed by King You.

In the stories that have been handed down, King You, who was entrusted to Wangquezhou in a barbaric state, climbed Youshan and built a platform to overlook the "Central Continent Palace" that he misses, which is very particular.

It's fun.

Whose palace is the palace?
Did the first King You really miss his hometown so much, and wanted to climb up and build a platform to look at it?
Looking at the Lidu River flowing into the sea in front of him, Zhao Rong raised his eyebrows.

He also knows very little.

Having these thoughts is just curiosity and vague guesses when I am bored.

What the truth is is still unknown, and it may be covered in the dust of history forever and never see the light of day.

It is estimated that this 'Old Sword Spirit' may know something.

You can ask questions when you look back, and increase your knowledge.

Zhao Rong shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

It's just that he felt his teeth itch immediately, saying, why didn't he wake up...

In the past, Zhao Rong was told to call it when he reached the Fuyao Realm, but now he only has the last eight extraordinary meridian 'Yangwei Meridian' left.

Forget it, Zhao Rong thinks this is actually quite good, it is understandable that people like to doze off when they are older.

And it's better than staying awake in the middle of the night and disturbing him to study.

Zhao Rong blinked and was quiet for a moment.

This thought, he 'muttered' directly in the lake of his heart...

After three breaths, there was still no sound in the heart lake.

There was no sound of a blown sword spirit.

"Looks like he's not pretending to be asleep..."

Zhao Rong muttered.

Subsequently.

Zhao Rong, who was sitting in the carriage, listened while admiring the autumn scenery.Lu Wan details the customs, strange people and interesting stories of Sudoku Youcheng.

Soon, they arrived at Duyou West City.

The west city is more lively than the east city where there are many immortal families.

The smell of fireworks in the mortal market is mixed with the fairy smell of some cultivation fairs on the mountain.

It was a lively scene when mortals and monks got along.

However, Zhao Rong didn't stay long, just bought some out-of-season fruits that Qingjun and Qian'er liked to eat, and boarded Lu Wan's carriage again.

Zhao Rong changed his mind halfway, and instead of going directly to Taiqing Mansion immediately, he asked Lu Wan to stop when passing by Dongcheng.

He started shopping in a relatively bustling street in Dongcheng.

The surrounding area is bustling with people, and most of them are monks on the mountain wearing strange clothes.

Zhao Rong was dressed in a student's green skirt, so he was not conspicuous in it.

He didn't go to the busiest and famous Xianjia business streets in Dongcheng, because the things he wanted to buy should be available here, so there was no need to waste time.

Today is to find Qing Jun, there is not much time to delay.

So, Zhao Rong casually wandered purposefully on this street lined with businesses of all sizes.

Not long after, he walked around this street three or four times, and he confirmed in his mind that he just passed by a rather lively shop with a festive name, 'Sheng Wanbao'.

Zhao Rong folded his sleeves and observed the situation around Sheng Wanbao for a while in the crowd.

It wasn't as lively as the other big shops on the street, but it was quite satisfactory and nothing unusual.

Zhao Rong glanced at the clothes on him, nodded slightly, and without hesitation, walked directly into Sheng Wanbao.

It was just selling a poem that climbed a building. Zhao Rong felt that there was nothing to disguise and hide. He just went in and sold it in a fair manner. After all, he was Lin Wenruo, the pillar of the Mochi Academy of Linlu Academy who was valued by Mr. Jijiu. , Writing the first entry poem is like playing, what's wrong with selling one?
Well, after entering, just say it directly and aboveboard.

Zhao Rong nodded secretly.

……

After about a stick of incense.

Zhao Rong walked out of Sheng Wanbao with a normal expression, and disappeared into the bustling crowd of people on the street without anyone to see him off.

Without stopping for a moment, he went straight to the Luwan carriage waiting at the street corner, and got into the carriage.

Zhao Rong said politely: "Go to Taiqing Mansion, please trouble the girl."

Lu Wan drove the car with a whip, "It's all right, please sit down, my lord."

Inside the carriage.

Zhao Rong smiled slightly.

In the past, after the three transformations left, the spirit stones left for him were no longer enough.

In the past few months, the medicinal baths and tonics that Zhao Rong needed for his cultivation had cost him a lot.

This is still without spending money to buy those rare spirits that can ignite gas and blood and assist the pulse.

Otherwise, the mid-grade spirit stone left by brother Sanbian would not be enough to look at.

Because of this, Zhao Rong has always been a little curious, what is the bowl of 'lotus seed glutinous rice porridge' that Qingjun gave him before.

It must have cost a lot of money, and it is estimated that it is still the kind that has a price but no market.

If it wasn't for the fact that Zhu Yourong had been providing him with the special water in the academy recently, in addition to the magical dragon energy, it also had the miraculous effect of assisting the pulse to break the mirror, so that his cultivation progress was extremely fast and the pressure was not too great.

Zhao Rong has long been coming to the city to find some way to make money and buy elixir.

But today, when he came to Duyou East City this time, Zhao Rong took out a poem for climbing a building that he had prepared a long time ago and sold it.

Just now in Sheng Wanbao.

Regarding Zhao Rong's identity and the entry poem.

There is no doubt about him as the shopkeeper of the store who specializes in receiving distinguished guests.

At the same time, it was similar to what Zhao Rong had imagined. The shopkeeper was not too shocked or curious about him, but served Zhao Rong with a proper attitude of respect.

At the foot of this lonely city crowned with despair, there are many strange people and strange people, and treasures and elixir are even more exquisite.

The price of going to the building to taste poetry is not low, but it is not rare.

Although it is not a thousand-year-old firm that is famous all over the continent, the shopkeeper in Sheng Wanbao is also well-informed.

In addition, with Zhao Rong's attire, anyone with a discerning eye can tell that he is a Confucian scholar in the academy, and it is even more reasonable to sell poems for climbing the tower.

And the shopkeeper also quietly hinted at Zhao Rong, roughly meaning.

If 'Mr. Lin' can get more precious imported poems, he can also trade with them, Sheng Wanbao can digest it.

Even, if it is such a rare poem of Luo Hua Wu Wu Jing, they can also help Zhao Rong to send it to some special channels for sale, as long as a little commission is enough, it is right to make friends with 'Mr. Lin'.

'Mr. Lin' looked like a dragon and phoenix among men, Sheng Wanbao was full of sincerity, and he could discuss any business in the future...

However, Zhao Rong pretended not to understand, and did not reply, he only said that the master of the academy was very strict, and it was already extremely difficult and dangerous to be able to take out a poem of climbing a building and sell it.

This time, Zhao Rong sold a lot of money for this poem.

It was several times more money than Brother Sanbian had left behind, and it was paid with a hard currency called Caidieqian linked to middle-grade spirit stones.

Zhao Rong didn't study too much, and directly used the money to buy spiritual objects in Sheng Wanbao.

In addition to supplementing his body-replenishing and elixir supplements for his martial arts practice.

Zhao Rong also made a general selection and bought some rune pills that might be used down the mountain. Many of them were carried by the people on the mountain, and he also prepared a copy.

After that, Zhao Rong was going to leave directly.

As a result, before leaving, he stopped in front of a very conspicuous counter at a certain position beside Sheng Wanbao's gate.

Zhao Rong's eyes were attracted by some 'flashy' strange object inside the counter but he was familiar with it.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper was also selling enthusiastically, but Zhao Rong, who couldn't move his eyes away, nodded without hesitation and was taken advantage of before he even said a few words.

He bought two of these 'flashy' strange things, and spent a lot of money, um, it was much more expensive than the spiritual things he bought before.

So, for the money for selling the poem for climbing a building this time, there are only three colorful butterfly coins and nine green clam coins corresponding to low-grade spirit stones left.

However, Zhao Rong left quite satisfied, and the shopkeeper, who was beaming with joy, also sent Zhao Rong out without much fanfare.

At this moment, Chen Ji is inside the carriage.

Zhao Rong touched the two gadgets in his sleeves, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Isn't a man's money just for a woman?

……

After half an hour.

In front of the north gate of the Fourth Mansion of Taiqing, a carriage pulled by blood-red horses slowly stopped.

After bringing the carriage to a stop, Zhao Rong jumped out of the carriage and told Lu Wan something, after that, he entered the Taiqing Fourth Mansion directly.

With his status as a Confucian student in the academy, Zhao Rong traveled unimpeded all the way.

Taiqing Mansion occupies a large area, even a few circles larger than Linlu Academy.

This is what Zhao Rong and Qingjun held hands and measured with their feet when they came to Taiqing Mansion to give lectures with Mr. Yan.

Half of the Taiqing Mansion is located inside the city, and the other half is located outside the city, running through the Baizhang City Wall of the East City.

It is even very convenient to enter and exit the east city through the north and south gates of the four mansions of Taiqing.

Thanks to living there for a while, Zhao Rong came to Nanci Jingshe with ease after entering from the north gate.

He walked to the concierge of the jingshe, saluted the tall bearded female official whom he had known for a long time, and reported his name.

"I'm Zhao Ziyu, Zhao Lingfei and Zhao Qian'er who came to Qinglianxuan, can you let me know?"

The female officer with high temples was even more unforgettable to Zhao Rong, so she didn't shy away from it, and told him directly:

"The two fairies Zhao of Qinglianxuan went out in the morning and haven't returned yet. The two fairies are the students of Xiaoyao Mansion. At this time, they should still be practicing in Xiaoyao Mansion. They may not come back in the evening."

Zhao Rong looked up at the sun, reckoning it was around six o'clock, not yet noon.

He nodded slightly, smiled warmly at the high-haired female officer and said, "Thank you, Your Excellency."

"Young Master Zhao is being polite."

Zhao Rong thought for a while, and then asked the direction of Xiaoyao Mansion.

After getting the advice, he went looking for it alone.

Zhao Rong politely asked for directions along the way, and after about a quarter of an hour, he arrived in front of a group of buildings built near the water and hidden in the green forest.

In front of the main entrance, there is a piece of [-]-meter bluestone. The front is as smooth as a mirror, with four big characters written vigorously on it.

The road is free and easy.

Zhao Rong turned his head and looked into the gate again.

There are many open-air buildings such as carved beams and painted buildings, terraces and waterside pavilions.

The overall style is simple and elegant.

There is no such thing as the overflowing sword energy and the chilling air that Zhao Rong imagined before.

Rather, it is sparse and ordinary, no different from other places, and even quieter.

Most of the Xiaoyaofu students who came in and out of the gate had a restrained and simple temperament, wearing the white sword uniforms of Xiaoyaofu, with sword patterns embroidered on the cuffs.

Of course, there are also those Fu Sheng who are not easy to mess with at first glance.

Not many, most of them still look normal.

So, it seems that this place where sword cultivators gather is not as powerful and high-profile as imagined. Everyone looks like a sharp-edged and self-respecting arrogance?

Zhao Rong blinked, stepped into the mansion, and went to find his wife.

Not long after, he found that although Xiaoyao Mansion allowed Confucian students of Linlu Academy like him to enter and leave, there were many palaces and pavilions in it, but people outside the mansion were not allowed to enter at will.

Zhao Rong, who was wandering outside, politely stopped some passers-by.

Ask them if they know where Concubine Zhao Ling is practicing.

Except for a small number of students who ignored Zhao Rong and went to Gao Leng Mansion, most of the students in Xiaoyao Mansion shook their heads and said they didn't know, and then opened their eyes slightly, looking at him with some strange eyes.

Zhao Rong expressed his thanks as usual.

Well, it seems that the lady is quite famous in Xiaoyao Mansion...

He thought about it, and wandered around again.

At a certain moment, when Zhao Rong was passing through a bamboo grove, he suddenly saw a solitary pavilion in the middle of the bamboo grove in front of him.

At this time, around the pavilion, there were a group of students from the government gathering in the open air, sitting cross-legged.

The seats are irregular and scattered.

In the pavilion, there seemed to be a figure of a person sitting alone.

Zhao Rong was about to pass by the bamboo forest, his eyes swept casually, and he paused for an instant.

I saw the figures of Qing Jun and Qian'er among them.

They were among the students sitting cross-legged outside the pavilion.

Zhao Rong's footsteps had already stopped, and the next second, just as he was about to make a move, his eyes froze again, and his eyes were attracted by the old figure in civilian clothes in the pavilion.

Zhao Rong narrowed his eyes and raised his eyebrows.

It was actually Tao Yuanran who had met once in Zhongnan Taibai Mountain back then.

……

　Thanks to the good brother 'Ji Xiyue' for the reward of 1500 coins!
