The only way

Chapter 25 Tianyuan City

The Peach Noodles in the East Street and the Peach Cake in the West Alley are must-have snacks and wines for every household in Antang City in spring.

Lingchu lived in Antang City for four years, and every spring, he would eat two yuan and drink two sips.

After two years away, I miss you so much.

Meizi has a very good temper, and accompanied Lingchu to visit Antang City with a smile all the way. Huanniang's reputation in Antang City is too high, so she can't easily get out of Fuchun Tower, and she is afraid that she will appear on the streets of Antang City , then it is really full of fruit and flowers.

So Meizi asked for leave, and accompanied Lingchu to visit Antang City again.

Antang City is different from Taoyuan City.

The water towns in the south of the Yangtze River are inherently gentle, and Antang City is a little more charming because of the river full of flower boats and boats, which dye the fragrance for ten miles, and the city is full of fragrance.

All eyes are romantic, beautiful women.

With a mouthful of peach crisps and a mouthful of peach wine, Lingchu casually sat on the bluestone bench by the street, eating the plums beside him as well, with green willows swinging lightly above his head, full of tourists in front of him, and a warm spring breeze on his face.

Meizi is two years older than Lingchu, and will be thirteen after spring this year.

There are more than thirteen curls, cardamom branches in early February.

More than two years ago, she was still a girl with a round and pleasing face. She has gradually revealed the outline of her face. She has a very delicate oval face. Her skin is white, tender and moist, which is unique to Jiangnan women. Now that there are clues, those who can be sold into brothels will not have bad facial features.

The only thing that remains the same is the crescent-like apricot eyes and curved lips that Meizi smiles as soon as she eats something delicious, which makes the person watching feel happy.

The two of them, one elegant and warm, the other handsome and pleasing, sat together by the side of the road, eating snacks and drinking wine, even in Jiangnan where there are many beauties, it is a very conspicuous scenery.

Pedestrians who passed by the two on the road, regardless of gender, old or young, stopped unconsciously, took a look, and finally smiled kindly.

There will be no scenes of robbing civilian women and molesting beauties.

Not to mention the beauties in the south of the Yangtze River, these two people, no matter how good-looking they are, are just half-grown girls who don't have much charm eating and drinking on the side of the road.

As for the two people who are often watched, one's heart is like calm water, and the other's heart is full of food.

No self-consciousness or embarrassment at all.

After gnawing on the eighth piece of peach cake, Ling Chu, who had half a piece of peach cake in his mouth, paused while eating, and suddenly raised his head, looking at a young man dressed as a scholar who stopped and stared at them.

To be precise, it was staring at Lingchu.

Seeing Lingchu looking over, the scholar in the white brocade robe first frowned, then parted the corners of his mouth, showing a gentle smile, and raised a fan to invite Lingchu to the restaurant behind him.

Lingchu watched the scholar walk into the restaurant with a calm expression, chewed and ate the eighth piece of peach cake slowly, and drank a sip of peach stuffed rice, then got up unhurriedly, ready to go to the restaurant pointed by the scholar.

Seeing that Lingchu got up suddenly, Meizi also stood up subconsciously, and hurriedly packed the oil paper.

"Meizi, you go back first, I have something to deal with." Lingchu didn't let Meizi follow, she didn't want Meizi and the others to be involved in some things.

Meizi blinked, although she didn't know what Lingchu was going to do, Meizi, who was always talkative, didn't ask any more questions, nodded obediently, packed the peach cakes and peach wine, and went back to Fuchun Tower.

Watching Meizi's back disappear at the end of the street, Lingchu walked into the restaurant.

This restaurant is not big, and there are not too many people. Lingchu saw the white-robed scholar sitting in the corner at a glance.

"Fellow Daoist." Seeing Lingchu sitting down, the scholar smiled and raised his hand in a salute.

Yes, Lingchu looked at the scholar precisely because he noticed that the fluctuations in the spiritual power of the scholar's body were somewhat different. After the probing technique was used, he discovered that this was a monk. Judging from his cultivation, he should be in the middle stage of Qi refining.

"Friends, Dao." Lingchu also returned a Daoyi. This was the first time Lingchu met a monk other than Lao Dao and Uncle He.

"My next Zhang Wen is a casual cultivator. I don't know where my friend and teacher came from. I have such a cultivation level at a young age, and I can break through my breath-holding technique." The scholar Zhang Wen did not speak in a gentle manner, but rather For hearty.

Lingchu didn't answer right away, but asked curiously, "Breathing Containment Technique?"

There are really not many spells that Lingchu knows, and the old man's temperament is not a good master who knows everything.

"Fellow daoist, don't you know the breath-holding technique?" Zhang Wen squinted his eyes, and his smile became more gentle, "The breath-holding technique is just a small spell, which can cover part of the cultivation base. I ask myself that although the breath-holding technique I learned is only low-grade, is it It can also hide the truth from monks who are below the middle stage of Qi training, and the cultivation base of fellow Taoists seems to be very good."

In the restaurant, Zhang Wen probably didn't hide his cultivation anymore, Lingchu could easily see that his cultivation was at the sixth level of Qi training.

"Fellow Daoist, I was joking. I just noticed that the spiritual power fluctuations around you are a little different, so I took a few more glances. In fact, I was lucky enough to break through the sixth level of Qi training a few days ago." Lingchu didn't say anything about himself. Some time ago, I broke through the seventh level of Qi training, but I said it was a little lower, and I didn’t need others to teach me. I spent several years in the Fuchun Building, and I fought wits and courage with the old masters for two years. Heart is indispensable.

Zhang Wen looked carefully, and found that the spiritual power around Lingchu's body was quite stable at first glance, but when he looked carefully, there was still some instability inside. It could only be seen that his cultivation was at the sixth level of Qi training, and his spiritual power was not enough. Stable, and it seems that he has just broken through, and his cultivation has not yet been stabilized.

Lingchu will not hide the spells of his cultivation, but it is still possible to slightly disturb his spiritual power.

In fact, she wanted to pretend to be of a lower cultivation level, which was so inconspicuous, but it was a pity that she didn't know the breath restraint technique, and secondly, it was difficult to explain why Zhang Wen's cultivation base was so much lower than that of Zhang Wen, but she could find something wrong with Zhang Wen.

Regardless of whether Zhang Wen believed Lingchu's words or not, anyway, Lingchu only believed half of Zhang Wen's words, even though Zhang Wen's face was gentle and easy to speak.

"Friend Daoist is so young, can the master at home rest assured that you will come out alone?" Zhang Wen seemed to believe Lingchu's words, and did not continue to ask Lingchu's cultivation level, but asked other questions.

"Of course I don't worry, but my master often said that the road of cultivation is not to build a car behind closed doors and requires a lot of experience, so he let my uncle and I go out to travel." The words are all true, but there are some differences.

Zhang Wen saw Lingchu's innocent face, seemingly unsuspecting, and shook the paper fan in his hand, "Where is the Taoist going to travel? I have traveled all over the country in the past few years, so I can give you some advice."

"The world is so big, you can go anywhere, that's what my uncle said, fellow Taoist, where did you come from, and where do you plan to go?"

"The world is so big, you can go anywhere, that's a good point," Zhang Wen clapped his hands and smiled, "I'm just a small casual cultivator, and naturally my home is everywhere, with nowhere to come from, and nowhere to go, it's a pity, fellow Taoist If you don’t have a master’s sect, I would recommend fellow Taoists to go to Tianyuan City to the east.”

"Tianyuan City?"
