After making great ambitions and entering the city, Cheng Ling was forced again. There are monks coming and going everywhere, and there are rows of monks on the street. I don’t know where to go, and I don’t know where to go to inquire about the whereabouts of those heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
While I was in a trance, a timid voice came: "Senior, the little girl is a native of Yujing City. How can I help you? As long as you give me a hundred spiritual stones, oh no, eighty spiritual stones. good."
Cheng Ling turned around and saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl standing timidly next to him, her face flushed, her hands constantly stirring the corners of her clothes, looking at a loss.
Just as he was about to speak, several ruffian-like teenagers walked up to the city gate. One of them said: "Xiao Ling'er, you have no right to speak here. Aren't you robbing our business? Move out of here." Senior, is there anything I can do for you?"
The girl's expression changed, but she did not leave. She glanced at the young man and said, "Brother Bao, I... I just want to earn some spiritual stones." Her voice became softer and softer, and finally she was almost inaudible. It wasn't that Cheng Ling had very good ears, but he really couldn't hear.
After saying this, the young man became even more impatient and said: "I am saying this for your mother's sake. If Brother Bao finds out, I will have to skin you, so hurry up and go away!"
The girl pondered for a moment, a trace of fear and hesitation flashed across her face. Cheng Ling then said: "Girl, don't be afraid. Please explain to me the situation in Yujing City!"
The girl trembled and looked at Cheng Ling in disbelief.
The young man's expression changed and he said to Cheng Ling: "Senior, Yujing City naturally has its own rules. Some things are not as simple as you think."
Cheng Ling's eyes narrowed, his consciousness swept over, and he said calmly: "It's good that there are rules in Yujing City, but don't you know what the rules are in this monastic world? Even a person in the early stage of Jindan dares to shout in front of me. Get out of here!" , otherwise don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
After speaking, mental energy filled the air, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes. The young man shivered with excitement. He felt the boundless aura of violence and killing approaching, and he hurriedly stepped aside and stepped aside.
Cheng Ling waved to the girl and said, "Little girl, come here!"
The girl pondered for a while, then finally came over, bowed and said: "Thank you, senior, please come with me."
Cheng Ling waved his hand and followed the young man at the city gate without even batting an eye.
The girl took him for a while and then said: "Senior, I don't know why you came to Yujing City. Is there anything I can do to help?"
Cheng Ling did not answer. He scanned with his consciousness and found several monks following him. His eyes were cold and he asked, "Did you just say your name is Xiao Ling'er?"
"Yes, I grew up in Yujing City, and everyone here calls me that."
"Who were those who stopped you?"
"They are gangsters in Yujing City. They think that outside monks introduce shops in the city and lead the way for a living. Although they are just errands, they have a large organization. Most monks dare not provoke them easily. I have no choice but to do so. Those who venture out to invite guests."
"Oh? So you just offended them? Aren't you afraid?"
A trace of fear flashed in Xiao Ling'er's eyes, but she finally hid it and said, "Thank you for your concern, senior. It's just that the situation forced me to
Spiritual stones pay off debts. Besides, Abao and I grew up together, so he probably wouldn’t tell Brother Bao about such a thing. "
"Brother Bao? Is he the leader of that organization?"
"Yes! He is the deacon in charge of the East City Gate, and he has hundreds of ruffians serving him."
Cheng Ling was shocked. With such a gatekeeper, there were hundreds of subordinates. The strength of this organization was not simple. Considering that my purpose was just to inquire about body shaping materials, there should be no conflict with them, so I didn't take it to heart.
Unexpectedly, Feng Ling'er waited for a while and then said: "Senior, Feng Ling'er has burdened you with what happened just now. It's better to quickly tell me what you want to do in Yujing City, and leave as soon as you finish the work! As for the reward, you can do whatever you want. Just give me some.”
Cheng Ling was startled, his consciousness swept across the few monks following behind him, and asked, "Why?"
"Brother Bao is greedy by nature and will never allow others to interfere in Dongchengmen's business. He must have seen what happened just now, so he will definitely find someone to embarrass senior."
Cheng Ling was a little confused now. Are you kidding me? It makes no sense that a mere golden elixir monk is looking for trouble for himself instead of a little girl like you.
Feng Ling'er raised her eyebrows, glanced at him, and explained: "I am a native of Yujing City, and I have a long-term residence permit. Even if they have objections to me, they don't dare to do anything with the law enforcement guards in the city. "
"But seniors are different. Fighting is prohibited in Yujing City. Even if your cultivation level is higher than theirs, if they are deliberately trying to make things difficult, many things will be difficult to handle. And if you don't take action, you will still be led by their noses in the end."
"Oh?" Cheng Ling became interested. Such a local snake organization had so much energy, so he asked: "What is the long-term residence token? Tell me, I am planning to stay in the city for a while. "
Feng Ling'er had a bitter look on her face, regretting that she stepped forward to ask about Cheng Ling. Each of these high-level monks is pretentious and dominates the outside world. They are either the leader of a sect or the ancestor of the second generation.
Judging from Cheng Ling's age, he obviously belongs to the level of the second generation ancestor. But how did they know that the water in Yujing City is very deep. Not to mention you are the second ancestor, even the fathers of the second ancestor, when you come to Yujing City, you can only obey the rules obediently.
Otherwise, you can only leave in despair. She then advised: "Senior, you should hurry up and tell me where I want to go. Yujing City is not that easy to treat."
Cheng Ling's impression of this little girl rose several levels, and he said: "Don't worry, even if I offend them and can't fight them, why don't I just leave? I do have something to do, so I have to stay here for a while. Thank you very much, Xiao Linger, for your kindness.
Xiao Ling'er had no choice but to say: "Okay then! Since senior intends to stay in Yujing City, he must find a temporary place to stay. The inns in the city are expensive. If you don't mind, come with me to stay at home temporarily! "
Cheng Ling nodded and said, "Okay, then please lead the way!"
Xiao Ling'er agreed, changed direction, and led Cheng Ling towards the east. There were many shops on the long street. Xiao Ling'er introduced them one by one. However, as he walked, the shops became more and more rare and the number of people was much less. Finally, he came to a secluded residential area.
Xiao Ling'er explained as she walked: "Most of the people living here are from Yujing City.
The aboriginal people moved to the east of the city as a whole because of their low cultivation. There is a saying in Yujing City that the east is poor, the west is prosperous, the south is rich, and the north is noble. "
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details!"
"East Poverty refers to the fact that the east side of Yujing City is basically filled with low-level monks and is generally poor, and the shops and other stores sell low-end goods; Xi Sheng refers to the west side of the city, where various resources and natural materials are available. There are the most treasures there, and you can find all the elixirs, talismans, treasures, formation disks, and other items for sale there.”
"Nan Cai is a monk from the south. They have rich resources in the south of Canglan Continent. They are all very wealthy. They often spend a lot of money and have the strongest financial resources. As for Bei Gui, it is because the Zhao family's clan is in the city. In the north, certain sect strongholds and high-level monks have settled in the north."
"Not only that, the Dao Discussion Conference, auction, Babel Tower, martial arts arena, etc. held in Jade Capital City are all in the north of the city. Therefore, that location is the most noble!"
Cheng Ling understood. He didn't expect that the distribution of Jade Capital City was quite well-organized, and the Zhao family's management of the city was really unique. However, when he heard about the treasures of heaven, materials and earth in the west, his heart moved and he asked: "Xiao Ling'er, you said that there are all kinds of treasures of heaven, materials and earth sold in the west city. Many of them should be very precious!"
"Yes, the materials they sell are very rare. It is difficult for ordinary monks to have the financial resources to buy them. Basically, only some big families and sects go to purchase them. Therefore, there are also some materials for low-end monks here in Dongcheng. As for markets and shops, senior, if you are interested, you can go to the market in Dongcheng first, and if you don’t find what you need, it’s not too late to go to Wanbao Pavilion in Xicheng to look for it.”
"Wanbao Pavilion? Where is that place?"
"The Wanbao Pavilion is the most high-end treasure trading place in the West City. Many great powers' treasures of heaven and earth are sold there on consignment, even in the City Lord's Mansion. I believe that my seniors will gain something if they go there."
Cheng Ling's heart moved. Xiao Ling'er was not very old, and her attentiveness was amazing. She could guess that she wanted to buy some natural treasures just by showing a hint of her voice.
The two chatted all the way, walking through many small alleys, and finally came to a small courtyard. The courtyard is not high, with only two floors. The outer wall is only half a person high. Standing outside the courtyard, you can see the scene inside.
Two wooden doors were opened in the center of the wall, and they were casually connected with an iron rope. Anyone could easily enter. But as soon as Cheng Ling came to the courtyard, he hugged an ancient tree planted in the courtyard with a look of surprise on his face.
Xiao Ling'er opened the iron rope and was about to invite Cheng Ling in. When she saw him staring at the ancient tree in the courtyard, she said, "Senior, is there any difference between this ancient tree?"
Cheng Ling woke up, glanced into the courtyard with his consciousness, and asked, "Xiao Ling'er, are you the only one who lives here?"
Xiao Ling'er's face darkened and she said: "Originally, my mother and I lived together. Unfortunately, five years ago, for some reason, my mother suddenly went crazy with her practice. Her muscles and veins were greatly damaged, and she died not long after. ”
"In those few years, I spent all my savings to help her buy elixirs, so I had to find a way to go out and earn spiritual stones."
Cheng Ling sighed and said, "If what I expected is correct, your mother should have ice spiritual roots!"
Xiao Ling'er was startled and asked: "You...how do you know?"
