Chapter 339
339 Chapter 35-master is right!
Heaven city.
One of the seven prefectures of the southern Heaven region, in the easternmost Prefecture city.
Some people said that ” Qi Tian ” meant ” the Qi clan was the heaven, ” which meant that the Qi family controlled everything in the city.
Heaven city was huge and had a large population. However, compared to the prosperity of the cities of the Jiangnan region, although this city built by the mountain was majestic and imposing, it lacked some bright colors and appeared somewhat gray.
Of course, this could not be blamed on the seven families of the heavenly South. The southern Heaven region was surrounded by mountains and the terrain was rugged, making it difficult to communicate with the outside world. No matter who was in power, it would definitely not be able to compare to Jiangnan, which was a land of fireworks and a land of fish and rice.
Boss Shao’s house was also there.
The wide Main Street of heaven city was crowded with people, and the dust raised by the carriages filled the air. Not far after entering the city, the first large house along the street was boss Shao’s house.
“Wife, Oh Xuanji wife! I’m back!”
Boss Shao made a big fuss as soon as he entered the house. The doctor had already been arranged to stay at the house. Once he brought back the netherworld River heart grass, he quickly sent it to brew the medicine.
Du Lanke and Li Chu were sitting in the front hall, and the servants had already served them melon and fruit tea. The buildings in Tian Nan did not pay much attention to exquisite craftsmanship. They were big in size, and this was especially true for boss Shao’s house.
Looking at the countless courtyards, old du sighed sincerely, ” “It’s because there are only seven Prefecture cities in the southern Heaven region that are considered big cities, so the house prices here are not any cheaper than those big cities in the Central Plains. Boss Shao has a mansion like this on the main street. He’s really generous.”
“My role model,” Li Chu nodded.
The master and disciple duo looked around as if they had never seen the world. Boss Shao watched as the netherworld River heart grass was finished brewing the medicine and fed it to his wife before he quickly came out to greet them.
Hearing their conversation, he smiled and said, ” “Actually, we’re just from an ordinary family. There’s nothing special about us. At most, our house is a little bigger.”
Then, he waved his hand and called out to the servants, ” “Go to the accountant’s room and get thirty thousand Liang of silver. I want the Jiangnan province’s bank.”
“Hehe.” Old du also laughed and thought to himself,”you’re too” ordinary.””
He casually took out several tens of thousands of silver taels, simply ordinary and confident.
After a few words, they heard the clanking of pendants behind them and a woman in plain clothes walked out.
“Wife?” Boss Shao turned around and immediately stood up to welcome him. you just woke up. How dare you walk around so rashly? go back and lie down.
“It’s alright.” The woman’s clothes were plain, and her face was still ill, but it was obvious that she was looking better.
“After I took the medicine, I don’t feel the pain in my heart anymore, and my strength has recovered,” she said softly. After lying in bed for so many days, it’s time to come down and take a walk.”
Li Chu and du Lanke tactfully stood up and took their leave when they saw that the two were deeply in love.
“It’s been a pleasure working with you this time. If something like this happens to your family again, boss Shao can come to me directly. If you come in large quantities, you can get a discount.” Li Chu promised.
“Congratulations, boss Shao. Now that your wife is in good health, you don’t have to consider taking in a few beautiful women in their twenties to replace her. I wish the two of you will grow old together soon.” Du Lanke said.
On the other side, Madam Yan’s expression changed.
Boss Shao wanted to cry, but he had no tears. He had no choice but to cup his hands in farewell as he said,”You master and disciple really know how to talk, one better than the other.”
……
Li Chu noticed something strange when he stepped out of the door and onto the main street.
The true Qi in this city was so dense!
It was as if there were tens of thousands of xiuzhe simultaneously releasing their zhenqi to cast their divine arts. Looking up, there were indeed many shadows flashing past in the air, like flocks of birds migrating South.
The children on the street all raised their heads and pointed at the xiuzhe who were either riding the wind or the sword. They cheered and were very envious.
“What happened?” Du Lanke also found it strange that many cultivators were flying out of the city.
However, Li Chu had never been curious about other people’s Affairs. Although he did not know why it was so lively, he had no intention of going over to take a look.
As he continued to walk down the street, he suddenly heard a surprised voice from the side.
“Ah, little Daoist priest li, Daoist priest du, I didn’t expect to see you again so soon!”
In the blink of an eye, it was Chen Huaiji again.
The three of them greeted each other, and du Lanke asked, ” young master Chen, didn’t you go back to Hang Zhou Prefecture for the new year? ”
“Don’t even mention it.” Chen Huaiji waved his hand with a face full of bad luck. last time, we killed the devil at shilun mountain. After you went back, I stayed behind to help the villagers clear the river. I was busy for most of the day. I originally wanted to go back and have a good New Year, but when I returned to the residence, I found out that my three colleagues had all taken two months of annual leave, and I was the only one left here. That’s why I can only spend the new year here this year.”
“Isn’t this bullying an honest man?” dulanc snapped.
“Who said it wasn’t?” Chen Huaiji could only smile bitterly.
“It’s good to celebrate the new year here. I don’t want to trouble my family.” Old du could only Pat his shoulder to comfort him.
“Alas, it’ll take at least two months for my transfer order to be issued. “If something happens again in the next two months, it’ll be completely impossible,” said Cheng Liuji sadly.
“Eh? I’ve been curious about this for a long time, tsundere thought.”What’s happening in heaven city? Why are all the xiuzhe in the city rushing to the same place?”
this … Chen Huaji looked at Li Chu. it might be related to little Daoist priest li.
“Is it related to me?” Li Chu’s curiosity was piqued.
“Didn’t you mention before that you’ve seen the legendary demonic body of Fu Huang in the terrifying Valley, and then he broke through the void and left?”
“A few days ago, a giant appeared out of thin air in front of the thousand feet mountain in the southern border. He smashed the mountain with one punch, opened an extremely wide black crack, and entered it,” Chen Huaji said.
“The ten thousand fathoms mountain is between heaven city and Chu Mountain City. The Qi and Chu clans were the first to know about this, and then they sealed the news. It wasn’t until yesterday that they announced the cause of the matter.”
now that I think about it, that giant must have been the resurrected fuhuang’s demon body. The secret realm that he created must have been the secret realm of the great demon Chen fuhuang from 500 years ago. When he died in the southern border, no one knew about his tomb, and the secret realm he left behind was even more undiscovered. The Qi and Chu families were greedy for the treasures that could be hidden in the secret realm, so they didn’t make it public.”
“This kind of thing is not rare.”
Du Lanke nodded. The big immortal families were well-informed. Once they found a secret land or treasure, they would try their best to keep the news a secret so that others wouldn’t compete with them.
however, ” old du asked again, ” since they have already sealed off the news, why did they release it now? ”
“It’s because the mystic realm is extremely vast and has a special law. Even the two aristocratic families need help. There was a legend that Chen fuhuang had modified the ancient Huaxu nation’s hidden secret realm and made it his own secret realm. Therefore, it is possible to find not only Chen fuhuang’s treasures but also the secret treasures of the ancient Huaxu nation.”
“Now, the Qi clan is recruiting all the cultivators in heaven city to help in the secret realm. Those who go there don’t need to do anything at all. As long as they are present, they will be rewarded with five hundred taels of silver. Naturally, everyone will go after them like a flock of ducks.”
“I just need to be there and I don’t need to do anything. Is there such a good thing?” Li Chu blinked.
of course, it’s not like I’m not doing anything at all. I heard that I still have to help with some small things. Said Ming Ji.
“What is it?” Li Chu asked.
I’m not too sure about the details, but I heard that it’s some kind of Qianqian. “Slash.”
“A slash?”
“I’ll find out how exactly it is when I get there.” “I’m just about to attend it,” said Chen Huaiji with a smile.
“You’re going to join in the fun too?” Old du asked.
“Hehe, as a disciple of the Imperial court, such a major event has happened at the place I’m stationed. For the safety of the people and the dignity of the Imperial court, I naturally have the duty to investigate.”
Said Ming Guji righteously.
stop making up stories. You’re just after the salary, aren’t you? ” old du squinted at him. why are you still talking about those useless things? ”
actually, ” Li Chu looked at du Lanke and said, ” we, the deyun Abbey, have the obligation to do so. We should do it for the Imperial court and the people. I think we should go and have a look.
“Master is right!”
Elder du immediately nodded his head solemnly, expressing his strong agreement.
Chen Huaiji looked at old du and sensed a sense of danger. It had only been a few days since they last met, and this fellow’s cultivation level had increased again. If he were to continue developing like this, he was afraid that in a few days, he would not even be able to keep his position as the number one Lackey.
