The beauty is reclining, with frost and snow on her bright wrists.
The six-petaled plum blossoms between her eyebrows are shining, she is dressed in a gorgeous red dress, her brows are flowing, and she is unparalleled in elegance.
Back then, the alleys were filled with the aroma of wine and drunkards.
Nowadays, the front door is deserted.
Lingchu raised his eyes and glanced at the place where the Xiangsi Tavern signboard used to be hung, but now it had a different plaque.
Qin's grocery store.
The most common signboard with a black background.
According to Chen Siguang, this Xiangsi Tavern has been closed for a long time. Now, it has changed several owners. The current owners are a couple who run a grocery store.
The proprietress of Xiangsi Tavern did not open it for a long time, not long after the Immortal Gate Conference in Lingchu. Later, she changed several bosses one after another. The current boss has been open for a long time, and it has been open for seven years. .
It wasn't too early for the shops in Tianyuan City to open. When Lingchu came, the Qin's grocery store was still closed.
Acacia Tavern.
According to Master Duanyi Zhenjun, it must have been prescribed by a spiritual wine master, saying that this could be regarded as an opportunity for her.
Lingchu thought of it accidentally and thought of coming over to take a look. He didn't necessarily want to find it, but he just thought of it and came here.
"Squeak."
The closed door suddenly opened from the inside, and Lingchu raised his eyes slightly when he heard the sound.
The shops in Tianyuan City all have the most basic formations to block the detection of spiritual consciousness. It is not that they cannot be probed, but the forced exploration will activate the formations, notify the owner here, and trigger the main formation warning of Tianyuan City.
It is equivalent to a disguised warning formation.
So Lingchu didn't notice anyone opening the door in advance.
Anyway, he didn't do anything wrong. When Lingchu heard the sound of the door opening, he wasn't nervous at all.
Instead, he looked over with interest, wondering what the people in Panxia Xiangsi Tavern looked like.
The person who opened the door was a woman. She opened the wooden door skillfully. The sunlight from outside instantly slipped in, illuminating the place where the door stood and the neatly clean shelves in the house. However, they were still empty.
Just in case, merchants in Tianyuan City, except for the goods protected by special formations, most small and medium-sized shops will put all their products into storage bags after opening for the day to avoid any accidents.
Wait until the next day and put it up again.
The woman is in her early twenties, pretty and lively, with glossy black hair tied up in a smooth bun, tied with a gold hairband, with a long tassel hanging next to it, and pearl earrings on her ears. The nails had a soft sheen.
As if aware of the presence of guests, the woman looked up with a bit of surprise. It was unusual to see guests as soon as the door opened this early in the morning.
On the steps, the woman with the door open in her hand looked at the girl under the eaves at the corner, and the silver bracelet on her wrist suddenly slipped off.
Under the eaves, the girl who was about to take a look to satisfy her curiosity and then leave looked at the pretty woman, her long eyelashes flickering and blinking.
"It's you?"
"Why are you here?"
The two of them exclaimed together.
Qin's grocery store, the store that had just opened closed its door again.
In the backyard of the shop, there is a tall elm tree. Under the tree, there is a stone table and stone chair, and Lingchu is sitting on it.
The breeze is blowing in front of you, and the branches and leaves are rustling in your ears. It is indeed a good place.
A pair of snow-white hands held a celadon teapot and a celadon teacup, placing them on the stone table.
The jade hand gently poured the teapot, and the green tea fell into the cup.
A faint fragrance hits your nose, and a light spiritual energy lingers.
This is a cup of spiritual tea.
"I didn't expect that I could see Mr. Yu again, no, I should say, Miss Yu." The pretty woman smiled with the corners of her lips raised, her tone was lively and full of joy.
Since she married her husband, she hasn't seen anyone she knew before for a long time.
Lingchu held the tea cup, sniffed it lightly, showed a soft smile, and took a sip of tea, which made her lips and teeth feel fragrant.
"I didn't expect to see you in Tianyuan City. Back then... it wasn't right. I should say, why did you come to Tianyuan City? Miss Han."
Han Duoer was the daughter of the boss of a bodyguard agency that she met in the forest when Lingchu rushed to Tianyuan City to attend the Immortal Gate Conference.
She is about the same age as herself, with a high ponytail and two braids, a girl who lives and works with her father who is a dart boy and wants to travel around the world together.
Normally, Han Duoer would return to his original place after sending his guests there. There were not many monks there.
In other words, judging from normal circumstances, Han Duo'er, whether he listens to his parents or travels in the world, as a mortal, should not have much interaction with monks.
He shouldn't appear in Tianyuan City either.
Han Duo'er smiled, with traces of reminiscence in her eyes, "Back then, I was a girl who was not afraid of anything. Do you still remember that young lady with eyes that reached the sky? It was from her that I learned about Tianyuan City. She wanted to show off such a place to me, so she told me how majestic and magical Tianyuan City was, and also told me that there were immortals in this world."
Speaking of this, Han Duo'er parted the broken hair on her temples and showed a smile on her lips, "When I was young and energetic, I always refused to admit defeat and had a heart to enter the world. I was ready to make a move. When the lady left, At that time, I followed her secretly, wanting to see how magical and tall the Tianyuan City she was talking about was. That family is all mortals. I have been practicing martial arts with my father since I was a child, and I was not discovered halfway along."
"You're talking about Miss Xu Ruyu, right? She really..." She couldn't control her mouth.
Lingchu couldn't laugh or cry, thinking of that arrogant girl.
Han Duoer also laughed out loud. At that time, she looked at the young lady of the Xu family who was really arrogant. Now that she is a few years older, when she looks back, her heart is full of smiles.
"Then this is how you arrived at Tianyuan City?"
"I followed him halfway, but ended up losing him halfway..."
Han Duo'er laughed twice, with a trace of embarrassment flashing between her brows. She was really brave at that time. She didn't know anything, so she just followed her without thinking about anything, relying on her so-called ambition.
In the end, I lost track of him.
Lost you?
Lingchu blinked his eyes, chuckled, and quickly took another sip of the spirit tea. After all, she was a young girl who was full of loneliness and courage, but ended up being a little reckless.
Sighing, Han Duo'er lowered his head slightly and stared at the green tea. "Then, I met a group of monks, a group of monks who make a living by selling people."
Among the monks, there are also those who make a living by selling people.
Even in Tianyuan City, there is a place called the black market. In the black market, slaves are sold. Some of these slaves are monks with spiritual roots, and some are good-looking mortals.
I even heard from Senior Brother that slaves would also be auctioned at some auctions.
This slave refers not only to humans, but also to demons and all kinds of strange and special races.
Therefore, don’t think that monks are all beautiful and otherworldly. In fact, there are not many who are truly refined.
