Four days later.
It took four days for Xiao Ye to finally reach his destination. After all, his spirit boat is still relatively low-level, and speed is nothing here. On the way, he also used the space array that the Scarlet Sky Sect waved down the city, and teleported it several times before it was able to withstand the destination.
But what he didn't expect was that the price of a space magic circle was quite expensive.
One teleportation cost him 10,000 low-grade crystal stones. This was too dark. No wonder no outer sect disciple is willing to travel far away to do tasks, which not only wastes time, but also wastes crystals. Fortunately, these crystals can be reimbursed by Yipinlou, otherwise Xiao Ye would really be unable to afford the injury.
Golden Lake City!
The Chixiao Sect commanded a huge and quite large city, and an elder of the sect's Tongshen Realm sat here and was regarded as the enshrined elder here. However, the so-called city lord's position was still in the hands of outsiders.
It's like a colony, where local residents live but are ruled by others.
This is also a dependent country. If Jinhu City thinks it has the strength, it can also choose to break away from the Scarlet Xiao Sect and choose independence.
When he came here, Xiao Ye did not catch the tiger fish immediately, but accompanied Duanmu Xiao to wander around the city. After all, the purpose of coming out this time was to relieve Duanmu Xiao's boredom. Here, Duanmu Xiao can come out boldly, but still put on some disguise.
Xiao Ye followed Duanmu Xiao, acting as a guard. He also put a mask on his face and put away the token symbolizing his identity.
Xiao Ye looked at Duanmu Xiao's naked feet and wanted to say something, but he hesitated.
He thought about buying a pair of shoes for Duanmu Xiao first, but after thinking about it, Duanmu Xiao was usually in the space ring and basically couldn't come out. Bringing up the idea of buying shoes is undoubtedly a scolding. I can only take a look and buy it if I have the chance. Duanmu Xiao didn't make any big moves along the way. He just bought, bought, and ate, trying to make up for what he didn't eat.
Xiao Ye followed closely behind and paid silently.
Fortunately, he has no shortage of crystal stones now. The spirit stones here can be regarded as the lowest-grade trading goods. Some people even trade with spirit stones relentlessly. But fortunately, although Jinhu City is large and the environment of Beizhou Continent is good, it does not mean that all of them are monks. There are not many people here compared to Dongzhou Continent. Wherever there are monks, there are mortals. When mortals live in this environment, their peaceful lifespans have reached a very high level.
Spiritual stones and other things are still quite valuable to mortals.
Suddenly, Duanmu Xiao passed by a shoe store with a bunch of candied haws in his hand, seeming a little cautious.
Xiao Ye said, "Miss, would you like to take a look?"
She didn't want to see it at first, but after Xiao Ye said this, Duanmu Xiao still took steps and walked into the store. As soon as we entered the store, the landlady came up to greet us: "Girl, do you need anything?"
Xiao Ye also followed closely and found that the proprietress was a monk in the Qi Entrainment Realm. Perhaps because he was not talented enough, he could not even build a foundation in this life, so he bid farewell to the world of immortality and returned to the mortal world to start a business. He looked at the shoes around him. It was not just shoes, but also clothes, jewelry, rouge and gouache. It seems that this store sells everything for women.
Duanmuxiao was watching around, while the landlady was sizing up Duanmuxiao.
The experienced landlady, and Duanmu Xiao's characteristics were already very obvious, so she quickly figured out what was going on. Then, he turned around and took out a pair of shoes from a relatively inconspicuous corner. Xiao Ye was also a little surprised when he saw these shoes. They were not see-through embroidered cloth shoes, but a pair of sandals similar to straw sandals. There were several thin shoe strings tied to a thin sole. Of course, these are not the most important. The most important thing is the back heel, which has a short pillar.
Xiao Ye subconsciously shouted: "High...high heels?"
Yes, this is a pair of high heels. Although the heel is not very high, only three to five centimeters, but...how can there be high heels here? But when you think about it, it doesn’t seem strange. The world here doesn’t know how long it has been. Although there is not much research on science, there may not be anyone who does it.
Dig out the high heels.
"This young man knows about this kind of shoes. They came from Central China, and I got some of them by chance." The proprietress smiled, and then handed the shoes to Duanmu Xiao: "Girl, why don't you give it a try? "
Duanmu Xiao looked at the pair of shoes, a little hesitant, but her smart eyes showed that she really wanted them. So, he sat down and took the shoes and put them on his feet.
When those shoes are worn on Duanmu Xiao's feet, they match the black skirt and the black veil. It gives people a very elf-like agility, and overall a subtle sense of mystery, a kind of royal sister style, and a girlish style in it. I have to say that the boss lady here is indeed very discerning. This pair The shoes really fit Duanmu Xiao very well.
"This girl is naturally beautiful, and these shoes look perfect with her. If she combs her hair and dresses up, she will surely attract countless eyes when she is pulled out." The landlady said with a smile.
After hearing this, Xiao Ye's mouth suddenly became unnatural.
You said something bad, but you said something that Duanmu Xiao longed for. That woman doesn't like beauty, no matter how old she is, let alone a young one like Duanmu Xiao. Moreover, the young Duanmu Xiao was regarded as the sword spirit of the Zhuxian Sword. He existed in his space ring all day long and could not see outsiders. No matter how beautifully you dress up, who can you show it to?
But the landlady didn't know that after she finished speaking, Duanmu Xiao's face turned ugly. Xiao Ye observed Duanmu Xiao's emotional changes and said: "My young lady is originally beautiful and generous. Even if she is not dressed up, even if she is bare-faced, she still looks stunning, and it can be set off by external objects."
Duanmu Xiao directly took off the sandals on his feet, threw them aside, and said angrily: "No more."
Walking towards the outer door without looking back, Xiao Ye didn't say anything when he saw it. He put the shoes away and said without asking the price, "Is one crystal stone enough?"
"That's enough, that's enough!" The landlady was overjoyed. To her, the spar was nothing more than gold to buy steamed buns. It didn't cost too much. Xiao Ye put down a crystal stone and chased him out, but after thinking about it, it was too much of a loss. Then he took another pair of earrings. The landlady didn't say anything about it at all. Even if Xiao Ye took more, she was willing to do so.
Duanmu Xiao walked alone, while Xiao Ye chased after him: "Sister Xiaoxiao, please slow down."
Duanmu Xiao stopped, looked at Xiao Ye indifferently, and said, "I've had enough fun, let's go catch fish."
Xiao Ye looked at the angry look and thought to himself that this was really a girl whose mental age was similar to that of a normal girl in her twenties. Xiao Ye had no choice but to slowly enlighten him, and now he was going to catch the fish according to the other party's wishes. If he didn't follow her at this time, it would probably have the opposite effect.
After all, this person is still very unreasonable sometimes. She says what she thinks, but in her heart she wants you to do the opposite. Duanmuxiao was no exception, but when Xiao Ye left, he still took the shoes. Duanmuxiao also noticed this. She didn't point it out, which showed that she still wanted it, but she couldn't open her mouth. At this time, it is most correct to follow Duanmu Xiao. Waiting until the other party's anger subsides, then taking it out is the most correct choice.
Xiao Ye lamented, why was he becoming more and more like a scumbag?
Soon, the two of them arrived at Jinhu, seven thousand miles away from Jinhu City. This is also the origin of the name of Jinhu City, Jinhu, because there is a high loess mountain next to Jinhu. Every time when the sun sets, the sun shines on the mountain, and a pale golden light is reflected on the lake, hence the origin.
However, more importantly, this is the habitat of tiger dragons. Tiger Dragon is a fifth-level spiritual beast, and it was also at the third- to fourth-level level when it was young. As spiritual food, it is not only delicious, but also of great help to cultivation. What's more important is that the tiger dragon also has many treasures on his body. Tendons, scales, and teeth are all good things that can be used to refine weapons. Therefore, the origin of the name Jinhu is also because part of the value of the tiger dragon lies in it.
Could it be that...the legendary Classic of Mountains and Seas is really a recipe book?
Coming here, Jinhu Lake is at least one or two thousand miles long from east to west.
The northern length is also nearly a thousand miles long. He doesn't have much feeling about this. After all, he is already used to it.
Xiao Ye used his spiritual consciousness to investigate, but did not find a tiger dragon. They must have been hiding in the depths.
"Sister Xiaoxiao, is there any way you can lure it up?" Xiao Ye said, "Can I use blood?"
"Okay." Duanmu Xiao said intentionally or unintentionally, and then added: "However, you'd better not lure it over. I want to take a bath. You go down and catch it yourself. Also, I'm watching you. If you dare to steal Look, I dug out your eyes."
Duanmu Xiao said and stretched out two fingers.
The corner of Xiao Ye's mouth twitched, thinking, aren't you deliberately taking it out on me again? There are pools in the cave, not to mention the Jiuli Pot, anywhere. But you said you wanted to take a bath at this time. Isn't it because I didn't coax you? this...
Alas~.
Xiao Ye couldn't help but shook his head and smiled bitterly, and didn't say anything. He couldn't reason with the woman. After all, he couldn't.
Xiao Ye was still observing, wondering if there was anyone around. Unexpectedly, before he could make any observation, Duanmu Xiao kicked him down directly from behind, and said: "Based on my ability, do you think there are still people here who can see me? Although I have no cultivation level, But not everyone can compare with it. Just take care of yourself. Take a good look at yourself and don’t just think about catching fish.”
