Chapter 63 The situation is very good

In order to ensure the smooth holding of the Great Immortal Ascension Assembly, Seacliff City's ocean trade has been completely suspended by the City Lord's Mansion , but the decrease in the number of merchants has not affected the prosperous scene of Seacliff City. Thanks to the influx of immortal seekers, the snow has not yet melted, and the main commercial streets have begun to become lively, even more than the peak season of sea trade. over.

Yang Lu is not a person who likes to join in the fun, but Li Qingning and Murong are two big and small beauties like it.

One was soft and the other was hard. Yang Lu had no choice but to temporarily leave the detection of the "Luanshicheng Xuantie Mine Corruption Case" to He Mingyuan, and then followed the two women to the most prosperous Seacliff City. Pinghai Avenue.

Steward Zhou originally wanted to come, but Li Qingning forced him back on the grounds of "How can we play if you want to come?" But in order not to cause unnecessary trouble, Li Qingning forced him back. Qingning still used Yi Rong spell, which slightly concealed her amazing beauty.

At this time, Pinghai Avenue was already crowded with young and young girls who came to Seacliff City to seek immortality. One piece, not very lively.

Although the gap between the rich and the poor in the cultivation world is staggering, the Haiya area is the leading prosperous commercial port in Central Plains after all. The spending power of young girls from other places is still not small.

In order to seize the rare sales window period, all the shops along Pinghai Avenue have come up with their own specialty. It hasn't melted completely, but the heat rising from the stoves of the various vendors makes the whole street feel like in a frenzy.

As a foreign visitor from Earth, Yang Lu always feels inexplicable alienation from this fantastic cultivation world when he is alone, but after witnessing the lively scenes of Pinghai Avenue, he is more or less aware I can personally feel the fiery atmosphere of this culture world city, and it feels as if my connection with this world has become closer.

Yang Lu is still infected by this lively atmosphere, Li Qingning and Murong needless to say.

Although Li Qingning is a cultivator, he is not very old. It has only been three years since he left home to run Chamber of Commerce. Murong only came to Seacliff City more than two years ago to sell newspapers, like Great Immortal They had never seen such a lively scene in Ascension Assembly before.

Facing the turbulent crowd on Pinghai Avenue, the beauties, big and small, exclaimed "make a fuss about nothing" from time to time. This scene reminded Yang Lu of some of the Nordic local tyrants he had personally received when he was in Earth. .

The Norwegian Government Global Pension Fund is the world's largest pension fund and a major investor in global asset management institutions. Its Chief-In-Charge visit, as a top private fund manager, Yang Lu naturally has to go through the whole process. Eat and play. But unexpectedly, these Nordic gold owners are not interested in historical sites, but like to gather in crowded commercial streets. It was not until the other party left that Yang Lu accidentally learned that they actually made a special trip to see the crowd!

In the Nine Provinces cultivation world, which lacks entertainment and the Internet, even a few hundred-year-old cultivation monsters may not be as experienced and knowledgeable as the Nordic soft-shelled turtles. A noisy scene like Pinghai Avenue will cause harm to the two women. The impact can be imagined.

The three of them followed the tide-like flow of people, eating, playing, and shopping, especially Li Qingning, who never saw her stop.

"Eldest Young Lady, how do you keep your body in shape by eating so much?"

"Who eats so much? Do I eat as much as Murong? ?"

"Murong is growing, can this be the same?"

"Mister Yang...I'm almost 16 years old this year, it seems that I'm not growing anymore!"

"If you didn't keep up with nutrition when you were young, it's normal for your growth to slow down! By the way, when did you celebrate your 16th birthday?"

"I, I also remember Incredible, after all, I don't have biological parents..."

Murong never took the initiative to mention his origin, Yang Lu was not aware of her except that she was an orphan and carried a shoddy jade pendant with her. life as a child.

Yang Lu showed Li Qingning the ancestral jade pendant of Murong, and asked the cultivator to help him identify it. As a result, Li Qingning injected his Spiritual Qi into the jade pendant, only to let it emit a faint light. white light, like a large white woven lamp, nothing else happened.

This kind of luminous stone may still be rare in Earth, but it is nothing in the Nine Provinces cultivation world, so Yang Lu did not continue to struggle with this issue.

It is normal for a street orphan like Murong to not know her birthday. Since she did not take the initiative to mention her childhood story, it must not be a pleasant experience, and Yang Lu has no experience. The pot does not open to mention the idea of which pot.

But Li Qingning's emotional intelligence is not so high, she has always been a fair and reasonable character who "breaks the casserole and asks to the end", and immediately asked: "Murong, I remember you seem to have said that you are two You started selling newspapers a few years ago, where did you live before?"

Hearing this question, Yang Lu, who was careful, immediately noticed a trace of struggle on Murong's face.

But she also knew that Li Qingning was a very kind person, and she didn't intentionally expose her own scars. Out of gratitude to Eldest Young Lady Qingning, Murong finally confessed: "I... once had adoptive parents, in fact, I can't remember too many things when I was too young, but I should have been adopted by adoptive parents when I was very young. The conditions in my adoptive parents’ family are not very good, and there is a big brother in the family, but they can still guarantee that I will not be hungry. I really thought they were very kind to me at first, until there was a chance, they thought I was not at home, so I overheard their private chat, it turned out that they saw that I was more pleasing, and they wanted to raise me and sell me to a cultivator as a domestic slave, and use the money in exchange for my big brother to marry a daughter-in-law. The slave's Heavenly Dao contract must be signed at the age of 14 to take effect. They planned to deceive me into signing this contract of prostitution in exchange for the cultivator's reward. After knowing the truth, I found a chance to escape from my adoptive parents' house. But I I was still young and didn't know what to do, so I wandered to Seacliff City to try one's luck..."

The mortals of Nine Provinces cultivation world are protected by Heavenly Dao, and cultivators who harm mortals will damage their merits, but signing The domestic slaves who sold themselves to the contract, and the descendants of these domestic slaves, are not within the protection scope of Heavenly Dao.

Without the protection of Nine Provinces Heavenly Dao, domestic slaves can be disposed of by cultivators like private property. If they encounter some brutal cultivators, they can even be treated as not have the will to Live, unable to ask for death to describe. Therefore, unless they are completely cornered, or are deliberately tricked, the overwhelming majority would rather die than sign a contract of selling themselves.

It is precisely because the consequences of the contract of selling one's body are so serious that the price of domestic slaves in Nine Provinces cultivation world has been high for a long time, and the beautiful female domestic slaves are expensive even for ordinary cultivators. No wonder Murong The adoptive parents will be moved by crooked thoughts.

Speaking of these unbearable past events, Murong's tone gradually became lower: "Mister Yang, Eldest Young Lady, I can see that you are different from my adoptive parents, both are very good people"

Li Qingning's sympathy was bursting instantly, he took Murong's thin body in his arms and softly comforted: "Don't worry, after you come to Qingning Chamber of Commerce, you are my Li Qingning's family. I'm done."

"Eldest Young Lady, you—"

Seeing what Murong wanted to say, Li Qingning immediately jaded his hand and interrupted, "You don't need to thank me. , if anyone dares to hurt you again in the future, I will call elder sister and I will go out and blow their heads!"

"Eldest Young Lady, it's not... your chest is so big... it crushes me... ...a little breathless..."

"Huh?"

Watching the beautiful scene of the big beauty holding the little beauty in her arms, Yang, who was following behind the two Lu couldn't help but smiled knowingly:

This orange trend is not a small one, but a great one!
