Chapter 5 Strange Stories
Today is Saturday, Ma Feifei went out early in the morning, carrying dozens of gold coins and eight spirit crystals with him, he wanted to carry more, but there was no way, the spirit crystals did not exist.

Gold coins can't fit.

You can't take a sack to fight it!
Besides, this society is so dangerous, and there are so many strange people on the street. If you pull out one, it might be a spiritual master or a spiritual sect;
But this is Ma Feifei thinking too much. For practitioners, gold coins are not very important anymore; let alone a sack of gold coins, even ten sacks of gold coins, people will not snatch you; of course, if a sack of spirit crystals , Ma Feifei is just waiting to be blasted into scum.

Dubian Town is a small town in the northernmost part of the Great Chu Empire, bordering the Great Qin Empire.In a border town like this, there are generally many outsiders, of all kinds.

Because of this, although Watanabe Town is a small town, it is still very prosperous, even more lively than ordinary cities.

Of course, in a place like this, there is no guarantee of safety or anything.

They all rely on their own strength to protect their own safety.There is also a guard in the town, but it doesn't really have much effect; at worst, after killing people, they run north, which is Daqin's territory, and Dachu's laws can't control it.

Especially in recent years, with the constant friction between Da Chu and Da Qin, Watanabe Town became even more chaotic.

It's chaotic, but most of the time the town is quite harmonious, and no one will be idle looking for trouble.

You must know that in such a place where fish and dragons are mixed, maybe the beggars on the street are all practitioners.

In general, the security of Watanabe Town does not depend on the guards, but on self-discipline.

Ma Feifei has just arrived here, so he really doesn't know about these things.

He only knows that the connection is very lively, with people coming and going.

Walking on the street, one would stare at the vulpe with its tail; the other at the dwarf who was less than one meter tall; and those strange spirit beasts.

In this world, everything has a spirit.

And, all things coexist!
Ma Feifei is really amazed by this world.

Today, Ma Feifei has two main goals. One is to visit Watanabe Town and experience the customs and customs of another world; the other is to understand what this world is like.

As we all know, the best channel to inquire about news is the tavern.This is a paradise where adventurers gather. Here, you can hear many interesting stories and learn more about the world.

As a frontier town, it not only borders Daqin in the north, but also borders Jiuchong Mountain in the west. This is one of the five great adventure places in the Canglong Continent.

Spiritual beasts, rare and rare herbs, everything can be found here.

Passing through the Jiuchong Mountain from the west, you will arrive at the State of Zhao.500 years ago, the state of Chu mobilized the national power of the entire state of Chu and opened up a Silk Road from Chu State to Zhao State. This road is in Jiuchong Mountain; way.

Of course, it's a different story if you can fly.

Therefore, among the five great empires, the relationship between Chu State and Zhao State is undoubtedly the best, because the two countries do not have any land bordering on it except this 'Silk Road'.

The so-called "Silk Road" has now become a sacred place for merchants from Chu and Zhao countries, which indirectly caused Watanabe Town to become the first foothold for Zhao merchants after passing through Jiuchong Mountain.

In this world, adventurers and businessmen are the most knowledgeable people.

And these people, the places they like to go the most are taverns and fireworks venues.

It is impossible for Ma Feifei to go to the latter, and it is impossible to go in this life.

The only place to go is the tavern.

The most shops in Watanabe Town are taverns.

You can come across a tavern by walking almost a mile; but if you want to know the whole information, you'd better go to the largest tavern.

The largest tavern in Watanabe Town is called 'Adventure Paradise'. The reason why it can grow bigger is because it happens to be opposite the largest trading market in Watanabe Town.

Adventurers who have obtained rare herbs and spirit beast inner alchemy from Jiuchong Mountain will come here to trade and get what they want.

The first time after the transaction is over, they must be relaxed and unrestrained, so the "Adventure Paradise" tavern opposite and the largest "Yihonglou" in Watanabe Town diagonally opposite are their best choices.

Adventure Paradise is located in the very center of Watanabe Town. Ma Feifei walked all the way there and arrived at this tavern at about two o'clock in the afternoon.Perhaps because of the recent friction between Qin and Chu, many adventurers stayed in Watanabe Town and waited for this sensitive period to pass.

After all, Daqin's 20 soldiers and horses are sharpening their swords a hundred miles away, and Dachu's side is also stationed outside Watanabe Town with 15 troops.

Adventurers and merchants were more or less affected.

Ma Feifei ordered a pot of good 'Er Yuehe' and a catty of beef, found a corner and sat down, while drinking the world's fine wine and eating beef, listening to the adventurers in the tavern telling about those novelties things.

"Have you heard that it was the Second Prince Yan Xun who was enthroned and enthroned last month, and Crown Prince Yan was deposed."

"I heard that it was the last call of King Yan before his death. Prime Minister Yuwen Hongdu of Yan Kingdom and Sima Wuji, the Saint of Yan, both admitted it. Crown Prince Yan can only drink his hatred."

"It's a pity that Crown Prince Yan, I heard that he is the proud son of the emperor, and is deeply loved by the people of Yan Kingdom."

"Tsk tsk, who made Yan Sheng the second prince's master and the national teacher Yu Wenhong his father-in-law. Even if Crown Prince Yan is supported by the people of Yan, it will not help."

This is what my friends were talking about earlier.

Yan State is too far away from Chu State, still above Qin State, and has no border with Chu State. Ma Feifei only knows that Yan State is an extremely cold place, and there are only two seasons in a year, summer and winter.

What's more interesting is that there are 360 ​​five days in a year, only 65 days are summer, and [-] days are winter.Why can it be calculated so clearly?Because it was either snowing or snowing during those three hundred days, it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand it.

"It's such an amazing country, I hope one day I can visit it for myself."

For Ma Feifei, coming to this magical world, his biggest dream is not to practice, but to go out and see, after all, this world is so magical and so big.

"A sixth-level spirit beast appeared on the outskirts of Jiuchong Mountain two days ago, and it killed anyone it saw. I heard that many people died."

"Sixth-level spirit beasts! They can only be encountered after crossing the Triple Mountain! Somehow they suddenly ran out."

This is what the guys on the left are talking about.

Jiuchong Mountain is one of Canglong's five great adventure places. Unlike other adventure places, Jiuchong Mountain is famous for its peaks.It is actually a bit of a stretch to say that it is a mountain, because except for the ninth mountain, which is a mountain, the rest are derived around the ninth mountain, wrapping one layer after another.It's just that the altitude of each lower layer of the mountain will be lower, and the area will be wider. It is only because the Jiuchong Mountain has distinct layers and looks like mountains that it is named "Mountain".

"General Baili arrived in Dubian Town yesterday. I heard that General Zhang Wu has handed over the military power. It seems that Chu and Qin will be at war in less than two days."

"Not only General Baili, but even Chu Sheng is here. This time, Chu and Qin will definitely have a fierce battle."

"Sage Chu is old. If he really fights, he might not be able to beat Sheng Qin."

"Oh, after all, Chu Sheng is already [-] years old."

This is what the friends on the right are talking about.

However, Ma Feifei is obviously interested in this topic. It should be said that Ma Feifei is interested in the 'three thousand five hundred years old'.

"Thirty-five hundred years old!" Ma Feifei was surprised by the number and couldn't help but grin from ear to ear.Our previous life in China was only 5000 years old, but there are people in this world who can live to be [-] years old!It is simply unimaginable!
"Sage Chu? Could it be a saint?" Ma Feifei rubbed his chin, pondering.

To be honest, when he came to this world, Ma Feifei really had no idea about the cultivation in this world. Even Ma Feifei, a fairy, had thought about it, but this world should also belong to the mortal world, right?There are still people who live more than 3000 years in the mortal world?

I don't know why, but Ma Feifei has some longing in his heart.

Three thousand and five hundred years, how romantic this is.

……

While Ma Feifei was sitting in the tavern listening to the anecdotes about Canglong Continent, something happened to Zhou Guanyu over there.

he is sick.

To be precise, he is heartbroken.

After returning from the 'Magic Bookstore', Zhou Guanyu looked listless, and all he could think about was that book.

What a wonderful story that book tells!It doesn't either, in fact, it's just some very common, very common things; but for some reason, Zhou Guanyu just wants to see the follow-up content.

Because that book is really amazing!Zhou Guanyu lived for 16 years, learned to read at the age of three, enlightened at the age of five, and read through hundreds of schools of thought at the age of eight.I have read [-] if not [-] books, but I have never read such books.

The beautiful words, the life told by the little girl's family, are so attractive to me, so that I can't stop thinking about it.

Ever since, Zhou Guanyu was stunned.I didn't even eat lunch, so I sat in the yard all afternoon, looking at the front stupidly, with blank eyes.

"Fish watching"

"Sister" Zhou Guanyu looked up, only to find that his sister was standing in front of him.

"Sister, why did you come out? Sit down quickly." Seeing Zhou Zhuling's pale face, Zhou Guanyu couldn't care less about the book at the moment, and quickly got up to help Zhou Zhuling sit down, complaining: "Sister, your I’m still ill, how can I run around.”

Zhou Guanyu and Zhou Zhuling are siblings, four years older than Zhou Guanyu, just at the age of Taoli Nianhua; it's just that Zhou Zhuling suffers from a serious illness, and time is running out.

"Cough..." Zhou Zhuling had just sat down, and before she could speak, she couldn't help coughing, her throat sweetened.Zhou Zhuling hurriedly covered it with a handkerchief; when she removed the handkerchief, it was already covered with blood.

"Sister, I'll call Master Huang." Zhou Guanyu panicked, got up and was about to run, but was stopped by Zhou Zhuling.

"It's okay, don't bother Master Huang." Zhou Zhuling slowed down, took Zhou Guanyu's hand, and with a smile on her pale face, she asked, "I heard from my father that you are listless today, are you feeling unwell?" ?”

Zhou Guanyu looked at his sister, feeling uncomfortable, but he didn't want to show it; how could he think about that book at this time!

"It's okay, sister, it's just because of a book, it's not a big deal."

"Oh?" Maybe it's because he read a lot when he was a child, the last thing Zhou Guanyu likes to do in the past two years is reading, and now he can be listless because of a book, which arouses Zhou Zhuling's interest. Asked: "Talk to my sister."

Seeing this, Zhou Guanyu had no choice but to tell a little bit about the contents of the book he saw at the 'Magic Bookstore' yesterday, and Zhou Zhuling was fascinated by what he heard.

"There is such a miraculous book?" Zhou Zhuling couldn't help being amazed after hearing it.

Zhou Guanyu nodded and said, "Well, I've never heard of it."

Zhou Guanyu is also considered a talented scholar, and it is not an exaggeration to read thousands of books. How difficult it is for him to say a few words that have never been heard before.

"Not only that, but the even more amazing bookstore only allows reading, not selling; and it needs to pay one spirit crystal every hour."

"Oh?" Zhou Zhuling heard it for the first time, and she was a little curious; but as smart as she was, she immediately thought of a question.

"Isn't there no one interested in the bookstore?"

In Watanabe Town, although spirit crystals are not a rare item, they are also the most important thing for practitioners. No one would read a book with spirit crystals, unless it is a practice method.

Zhou Guanyu nodded, and said: "Of course, otherwise the shopkeeper wouldn't be sitting on the saddle and counting money to pass the time. What's even more annoying is that there are only two books in such a huge bookstore, and I'm afraid that even someone can't do it." Business."

"Take my sister to see it tomorrow?" Zhou Zhuling became interested. She also likes to read books, especially in the past two years when her illness has become more and more serious. She spends most of her time in bed. When she is bored, she can only use books. Come to relieve boredom.

Zhou Guanyu shook his head like a rattle when he heard it, and said, "No, sister, you are so weak, you should stay at home to recuperate."

In the past two years, Zhou Zhuling's condition has become more and more serious, and she will be in a coma for a few days if she has nothing to do, let alone go out, even if she takes a walk in the yard, she cannot last long.

"Take my sister to have a look, okay?" Zhou Zhuling said softly with a smile on her pale face.

But Zhou Guanyu heard something different from it, looking at Zhou Zhuling's pale face, Zhou Guanyu finally couldn't bear to refuse.

"The bookstore is closed today, and we can't say for sure tomorrow. Why don't you ask the servants to explore the way first, and when the bookstore opens, sister will go with me?"

"En." Zhou Zhuling nodded lightly.

"puff"

Another mouthful of blood spit out, and Zhou Zhuling didn't even have time to cover it this time, so she could only turn slightly to avoid spitting on Zhou Guanyu.

"Sister, Master Huang, Master Huang!" Zhou Guanyu supported Zhou Zhuling, looked at the fainted Zhou Zhuling, the veins on her white and tender face swelled, and her roar resounded throughout the Zhou mansion.

Rays of light flashed, and there were more people in the yard.
