Tongtian Bamboo Repair

Chapter 19 Qingzhu Town

Zhang Miao and Lin Yan were walking in the vast forest, with a 'Bamboo Horse Magic Walking Talisman' attached to their feet. With the help of this talisman, they could stride three to four feet in one step, and they could walk a hundred meters away in just a few steps. At this speed, Although it is not as good as sitting on a bamboo horse, it is still better than walking.

These talismans were also provided by the guards of Qingzhu Town.When encountering bamboo bandits in this area, they also have unshirkable responsibilities.

On the way, Lin Yan gave a brief introduction to Qingzhu Town.

Qingzhu Town, located deep in the Bamboo Sea in the South, is a town dominated by practitioners.The monks around the Bamboo Sea will come to this place to spend money, play or rest.There are not only sect disciples like Zhang Miao here, but also casual cultivators and family cultivators.They report to each other in the small town, exchange what they have, and it is full of signs of competition and vitality.

In the sect, there is more practice and work.In this kind of small town, it is more about consumption and entertainment.

Qingzhu Town opens its doors for business, and naturally everyone is welcome, which makes the situation in this place mixed and complicated.According to Lin Yan, it is better not to go to this kind of town often, and if you want to go, it is best to go with the disciples of the sect.

Zhang Miao was thoughtful after listening to his words, and at the same time she became more curious about this place.

After a day's trek, everyone finally saw a small city appearing in front of them.In the green bamboo forest, a small river separates the bamboo forest from the town like a jade belt.Surrounded by the jade belt, there is a quaint small town.

There are many bamboo buildings in the city, some of which are continuous and connected by passages, forming a large building.Some bamboo buildings stand alone, dotted with green trees and red flowers, and have a certain magnificence of their own.

There are many pedestrians on the street, and there are often small stalls and vendors.The items sold at these vendors are not the usual groceries from the north and the south, but things such as grass roots, tree bark, metal minerals, insects, birds, fish and beasts that are purchased by some practitioners.

There are also some tall bamboo buildings with gorgeous appearance and exquisite decorations dotted among them. Just by looking at them, you can tell that the consumption is definitely not low.

This exotic building immediately attracted Zhang Miao deeply.In his two lifetimes, he has never seen this kind of building or pattern.

After entering the town, Senior Brother Guo Zhen left with the guards from Qingzhu Town, and the injured disciple was also taken away.As for Zhang Miao and others who were fine, they naturally dispersed and started doing their own things.

Lin Yan looked at the lively town and said with a smile: "I haven't been here for more than half a year. Come on, brother, I will take you to have something to eat. There is a braised bamboo lizard in a bamboo tube that is delicious."

As he said this, he happily led Zhang Miao into the street.As he walked, he did not forget to tell Zhang Miao: "Qingzhu Town is generally safe. There are guards patrolling the streets here. If you encounter any trouble, you can ask the guards for help. We are from Qingzhu Sect. The guards will give you some face."

"But don't go into the alleys. Those places are full of people, and no one knows who is hiding."

"Have you seen those continuous bamboo buildings? Those are the territory of local cultivating families. They live in groups. It is best for outsiders like us not to disturb them, otherwise there will be trouble."

He gave a few simple explanations, and then the two of them arrived at the door of a busy restaurant.This is a two-story bamboo building with green bamboo walls. There is a bamboo curtain at the door. Looking in through the bamboo curtain, most of the dozen or so tables inside are already filled. The hot steam is lingering, making this place Full of fireworks.

When Lin Yan arrived here, he skillfully opened the bamboo curtain, stretched his head and looked inside. Then his eyes lit up and he shouted inside: "Flower Lady!" After a while, a clear female voice came from inside. He said: "It's Brother Lin. You haven't been here for a long time."

Lin Yan chuckled and said, "I'm busy at the door. I always come here when I have time." As he said, the woman inside walked over. She was wearing a green cloth floral dress, her hair was tied into a high bun, and she was wearing a simple jade With the hairpin inserted on it, it looks neat and elegant.

She also looks fair and plump, and her curved eyebrows always make her feel like there is a smile on her face.When she came to the door, she suddenly saw Zhang Miao behind Lin Yan. She was stunned, and then she said with a smile: "Brother Lin also brought a friend. Please come in quickly."

Lin Yan chuckled and took Zhang Miao into the restaurant. Then the flower lady quickly found a table for them, wiped it again, and then said familiarly: "What does Brother Lin want to eat this time? Is it still the same?"

Lin Yan smiled and said, "It's still the same, but with an extra portion of braised bamboo lizard, a plate of red blood bamboo beans, and two bowls of white jade bamboo shoot soup."

Hearing this, Lady Hua raised her eyebrows slightly, then she responded and said, "Okay, I'll serve the food to you guys right now."

Zhang Miao didn't say anything, but he looked at the expression on the landlady's face and it was clear that the dishes Lin Yan ordered today were much beyond his usual specifications.Although there are many customers in this place, the clothes of these customers are not high-end. It seems that this is also an affordable and word-of-mouth store.

While waiting for the food to be served, Lin Yan whispered: "Hua Niangzi's shop has been around for hundreds of years, and it was passed down from her grandfather's generation. Her ancestors were also rich, and I heard that there was also a Ancestor in the foundation-building period. Her stewed bamboo lizard in bamboo tubes tastes very good, and her white jade bamboo shoot soup is made from the finest spiritual plant white jade bamboo shoots. It has been stewed with green bamboo and white leaves for 49 days. It also has the effect of improving your cultivation.

"After we finish eating, I will take you to Qingye Pavilion. It is the largest store in Qingzhu Town. You can buy anything you want. Although it is a bit expensive, you are a good boy and don't know how to use black money. .”

"After visiting Qingye Pavilion, we can also buy some green manure and earth dragon. These things can be placed in the spiritual field to increase the harvest of golden green bamboo."

Just as he was arranging his itinerary, the waiter had already brought the dishes.Apart from some steamed buns, pickles and the like, the most noticeable thing when served are the two large bamboo tubes.After the two large bamboo tubes were broken open, there were two soft and fragrant bamboo lizards inside.

The bamboo lizard meat is very tender, somewhat like a fusion of shrimp and chicken.Moreover, the store seems to have used a lot of spices to give the bamboo lizard a distinct flavor and is very appetizing.After eating the bamboo lizard, Zhang Miao still had some unfinished thoughts.But at this time, the bowl of white jade bamboo shoot soup was served.

The white jade bamboo shoot soup is served in a bowl made of blue-spotted bamboo. The crystal clear soup is like a bowl of clear water, and in this clear water, there are two bamboo shoots floating like mutton-fat white jade.

Seeing this thing, a sentence flashed in Zhang Miao's mind, "One hundred and eighty glasses of palace jade liquor."This thing is not just a lie.

But looking at Lin Yan carefully drinking the soup, this seems quite unusual...

Zhang Miao picked up the bowl and took a sip.Then his eyes widened. The soup looked like water, but it was extremely sweet!

'MSG!There must be a lot of MSG in it! '
