Great Sui Storyteller

Chapter 170 169. This River and Lake
The background of Pegasus City revealed the tip of the iceberg in front of Li Zhen again.

And since it's okay at the moment, Li Zhen simply proposed to go with him.

See if there is anything that needs help.

Naturally, Shangnian would not refuse, and said with a smile:

"That just happened to take the Taoist chief to visit Pegasus City. Although the Taoist priest is favored by the oiran...but after all, they don't know this city as well as we do."

After saying this, Li Zhen didn't speak yet.

The eyes of the people in the back gradually became a little strange.

Li Zhen knew that he might not be able to take off his title of "not a serious Taoist priest".

He didn't explain, but asked while patrolling the streets with Shangnian:
"Layman Shang, why have so many new faces suddenly appeared in this city in recent days?"

"The Daoist also found out?"

Shangnian nodded:
"That's why I'm waiting to patrol the streets today. The Taoist doesn't know yet... Someone in the Blood Mist Academy offered a high price of [-] gold for that dragon fire..."

He lowered his voice:

"It's almost the eve of the year, but the martial arts people in the northwest area are still on the move. Although these people are low-level, they are like ants. Whenever there is any disturbance, they will swarm. I wait for these days Day is to control the situation in the city. Just in case someone takes advantage of the fire to rob.”

"Thirty thousand gold!?"

Li Zhen clicked his tongue, but then he thought...

"This Dragon Fire Dragon should be worth more than [-] gold?"

"Of course it's more than that. That's why this incident is strange. Thirty thousand gold is an astronomical figure for some martial arts practitioners, but for a cultivator, the money is useless. Therefore, the elders judged that someone might want to fish in troubled waters...not to mention ...This is only in the bright area. In the dark area, does the Taoist priest remember that Blood You Ji?"

"Yes, I heard... She assassinated the visitor from Nawagang Village yesterday, but she failed."

"That's the case. I can't say how many killer assassins are hiding in this city. But... many inner sect brothers have indeed been summoned back."

"……I see."

Li Zhen nodded:
"Then if there is nothing wrong with the poor Daoist these few days, let's go with the laymen. Although your skills are low, you can mediate one or two when encountering enemies. You should also tell the other elders, if there is any help, don't be stingy .”

Hearing this, Shang Nian's heart warmed up:
"Then I would like to thank the Taoist priest...but the Taoist priest will not tell the story?"

"Tell me. It's only one hour a day... Besides... if the brothers don't come, then the book "Xiao Li Feidao" won't be understood by other readers. So... I'll take a look at the afternoon, If it doesn’t work, I’ll tell you a new story.”

"..."

The corner of Shangnian's mouth twitched, his eyes were full of surprise and emotion.

He was moved because he understood that the Taoist priest didn't finish "Little Li Feidao" because he was waiting for others to finish talking.

Marvel is...

"Why do you have so many stories?"

"Haha~"

Li Zhen laughed lightly:

"I've been alone in Qiemo for a long time, and I like to make up stories for myself. I've been making up stories for many years. Can I not say so much?"

"It turns out that the Taoist priest is really talented."

"Haha~ Otherwise, how can I get the favor of the oiran?"

"...hehehe~"

"Hey hey hey~"

Chatting with friends is like that.

Don't hold back.

So uncomfortable.

If it was someone else, Li Zhen would definitely not talk like this.But Shangnian is his friend, and when buddies are together, even shopping is fun.

……

Not to mention, following Shangnian touring the streets, I really saw a lot of new things.

For example, the two gangsters who were about to fight, after Shang Nian passed, each of them slapped each other, and they obviously had nosebleeds, and they had to accompany the grandfather to send him away with a smile.

Or maybe there was a conflict between two waves of people from the rivers and lakes in the restaurant, and a few outsiders from the Pegasus Three Sects went in to clean up...

If you don't consider the practitioners in this world, from the perspective of this afternoon, this martial arts forest is really interesting in Li Zhen's eyes.

You can see those heroes who conform to the image in the book and become prostitutes after drinking alcohol, you can also see some masters from "Northwest of the Famous Town", and you can see that the people of the three Pegasus sects are flattering and close, and their attitude is similar to that of grandsons. Same.

In the afternoon, a vibrant river and lake appeared in front of Li Zhen.

The scenes that could only be seen in books or TV dramas in the past have become real people at this moment.

In the afternoon, he met at least three waves of masters from a certain martial arts sect, two waves of knight-errants who turned into red faces in anger, and a person who is said to be quite famous in the martial arts... But how does Li Zhen feel that the girl is cross-eyed? fairy"...

In short, it is really a long experience.

While gaining knowledge, he is also feeling the vitality of this river and lake...

Really different.

Tut tut...

……

Finally, seeing that the time was almost up, Li Zhen said goodbye to Shang Nian and went all the way back to Fulong Building.

But different from what he expected.

He thought that the people who listened to "Little Li Feidao" might not come here today, but who knew that in a Fulong building, there were about twenty people who had come.

After asking, I found out that it turned out to be a shift change.

Seeing this, Li Zhen lost the intention of talking about "Swordsman".

Anyway, the plot of "Xiao Li Fei Dao" has already been discussed in the middle and later stages, so let's just finish it.

So, Xingmu patted and continued to open the book.

……

at dusk.

After the bookstore was over, and politely declined the big guy's invitation to keep him for a drink, Li Zhen looked at the old horse that had already harnessed the carriage at the door, walked over and touched its neck.

I haven't seen him for many days, and the old horse seems to miss him a little bit.

Push him with your nose.

Li Zhen smiled and interacted with it for a while, then got into the car and walked to the market.

When patrolling the streets with Shangnian at noon, he ordered some mutton from a butcher at the market.Under Lei Humen's face, the butcher dared not be negligent, and bluntly said that today's meat was not sold out yesterday, and he dared not fool the Taoist priest, and would kill a sheep again in the afternoon.

Li Zhen is going to fetch the meat.

At the same time, there is also a mule and horse.

This mule was also bought by hand in the afternoon.

He planned to leave the carriage to Xia He and Ning Shuang, so that it would be convenient for them to enter and leave the city in the future.The mules and horses are for their own use.

After listening to Li Zhen's words, Shang Nian said that he would give him a horse.

But Li Zhen didn't want it.

Not suitable.

Mules and horses walk steadily, and they don't eat as much as horses.

Good horses eat fine fodder... Although they are not short of money now, who knows what will happen in the future?
Mules and horses that are not picky eaters are obviously a good choice.

So he chose a descendant of "Donkey King".

Shangnian said that the mules and horses were good.

That must be true.

Walked all the way to Nancheng, took the meat and gave the money.

After taking out the mule and horse at the horse market not far from Nanshi, and buying some more things, Li Zhen planned to leave the city.

Leading the mules and horses, he came to the gate of the market and found his carriage.

He tied the mules and horses by the side, got into the cart, and drove all the way to the north gate of Pegasus City.

Some people at the north gate were queuing up for inspection today, so he followed the queue and walked out of the city.

But at such a juncture, suddenly, a trace of disharmony between heaven and earth appeared instantly, and he got into his carriage directly from an inexplicable place.

Then calm was restored again.

At the same time, a voice rang in his ear.

The voice is weak, but very familiar:

"Smelly Taoist priest, get out of the city."
