After passing through the gate of Jinling City, Ye Xun and the others felt a little more comfortable. During the past few days of traveling, there were no villages or towns along the way, and they stayed outdoors for a few nights in the rain.
Arriving at the door of a hotel called Hefeng Inn, Ye Xun took off his raincoat. At this time, his clothes and hair were almost soaked, and he looked quite embarrassed.
After tidying up his appearance and about to go in, Ye Xun saw a beggar leaning against the wall not far from the door of the inn from the corner of his eye. His gray hair was messy and hung loosely on his head, looking ragged. The clothes also looked a little thin, with a lot of skin exposed and looking dirty.
Ye Xun couldn't see his appearance clearly. Maybe he used a beggar to help him test the gun last time, which caused his palm to be injured. Seeing such a scene this time, Ye Xun felt a sense of guilt for some reason.
Taking out a piece of silver from his arms, Ye Xun walked to the beggar and placed the silver next to him.
Perhaps this move disturbed the beggar. He slowly raised his head and looked at Ye Xun, and then at the silver coins that Ye Xun put down. There was no expression on his face, he just looked at Ye Xun with twinkling eyes.
"Take it and buy some food." Ye Xun smiled slightly, turned around and walked into the inn.
Two rooms were booked at the shopkeeper's place, and Ye Xun and others moved in under the guidance of the servant.
The first thing Ye Xun did was to take a hot bath. After that, he put on the cotton clothes given by Bai Haoqing. His energy instantly improved a lot. He stretched out and put on the seven weapons made at Yishen Weapon Shop. After taking out the bullets, Ye Xun said to the system in his mind: "Uncle System, please improve these bullets as well."
A ray of golden light shined from Ye Xun's chest, covering seven bullets. After the bullets flickered for a moment, the golden light slowly dispersed.
"Congratulations to the host, it's completed."
Ye Xun loaded all the bullets into the magazine with satisfaction. The Glock 17 could originally hold seventeen bullets, but due to workmanship problems, Ye Xun only got fourteen bullets in total, three of which were for the test gun and one for the test gun. After being blown up, one was given to Hua Mingyang. Now there are only nine left in total. These will be another guarantee for Ye Xun's life.
"Uncle System, how much summoning energy have you accumulated now?"
The system replied: "I just helped the host improve the bullets. A total of 10% of the energy points were consumed, and now there are still 67% of the energy points left."
Sixty-seven percent? so much?
The last normal summon was when I first arrived in Qing'an City. Counting the days, it has been a month. Excluding the energy consumed by the improved Glock 17, the energy accumulated in this month is greater than the time after the first summon. It was shortened a lot, so I asked the system.
The system explained: "The characters summoned by the host will accelerate the accumulation of the summoner after cultivating Daoxuan Zhenqi. The progress of Murong Fu and Linghu Chong together will certainly be faster than that of Murong Fu alone."
Ye Xun understood. It seemed that in the future, the more people were summoned, the shorter the time between summons would be.
After exiting the system, Murong Fu and Linghu took a hot shower and had a good meal together downstairs, drank some wine to warm up, and then went back to their rooms to rest.
Three days passed in a flash, and the autumn rain that had been falling for many days finally stopped. The sun slowly parted the clouds and mist, illuminating everything with its sunshine.
Ye Xun and the others left the inn and wandered around Jinling City. This Jinling City was a large city in the Jiangnan region, and it was one of the most prosperous cities in Daxia Kingdom and an important north-south thoroughfare.
Jinling City covers a very large area and is divided into five urban areas, including Qinghe City in the north, Jianye City in the west, Jiangning City in the south, Hedong City in the east, and the main city in the middle.
Among the five urban areas, the main urban area is the most prosperous. Except for the Jinling Yamen appointed by Daxia Kingdom, all those who live in this urban area are rich or noble, or have some power. The land in this urban area can be said to be valuable.
Even the Phoenix Sect, which ranks second among the six sects, can only base its sect in Qinghe City to the north.
After shopping for about half an hour, Ye Xun and the others were still in Qinghe City. They randomly found a restaurant. Ye Xun decided to fill his stomach first and then go for a walk in several other urban areas.
After going up to the second floor and sitting by the window, Ye Xun stuck his head out the window and continued to admire the bustling street. Suddenly he heard the sound of horse hooves.
"Who is so good at riding a horse on the streets of the city?"
Ye Xun muttered something and looked in the direction where the sound of horse hooves came from. About a dozen horsemen were slowly approaching here. They were not fast. They did not gallop all the way down the street, but moved slowly to the side. , maybe because he was afraid of meeting pedestrians on the street.
As they got closer, Ye Xun could clearly see the appearance of these dozen riders. They were all wearing blue warrior uniforms. Ye Xun had seen them dressed like this at the Tianqing River. They were from the Phoenix Clan.
The leader was a woman in her twenties. She was dressed very differently from the others. She looked heroic in a red warrior uniform, and wore a brocade robe embroidered with a soaring phoenix pattern. Three thousand green silk hairs were neatly draped, and there was a crown in the shape of a phoenix and a phoenix on top of his head, with a red gem emitting an enchanting light inlaid on it.
When Ye Xun saw her face clearly, he couldn't help but let out an exclamation. Her appearance could not be described even if she used words such as "beautiful country" and "beautiful woman", among all the women Ye Xun had seen. , except for Ye Jingyi, a thousand-year-old beauty, and Qu Tan'er, no one can match them.
But the beauty between them is completely different. Ye Jingyi's beauty contains cold, icy and sacred beauty, Qu Tan'er has an orchid and elegant beauty, and this woman is more heroic. , appearance and sensory beauty.
Ye Xun looked at her infatuatedly, and the light in his pupils flickered so wonderfully. Perhaps it was because Ye Xun's gaze was too hot that she seemed to be able to feel Ye Xun's gaze. Following the direction, she looked towards Ye Xun. Searching.
Just like this, the two people's eyes met. Ye Xun didn't care about the woman's gaze at all. He still looked straight at the woman and refused to move his eyes. The woman frowned, and a trace of displeasure rose in her heart, but fortunately she was not there. Ye Xun saw greed and desire in his eyes, so he did not get angry. Instead, he whipped his riding whip, accelerated the horse's pace, and headed forward.
Ye Xun didn't seem to have seen enough, and he didn't even lean out of the window until the woman's figure completely disappeared, then he reluctantly retracted his head.
"Who is this woman? She is so beautiful!"
Feng Yuxiu shook his head: "How do I know, but judging from the clothes of the people behind her, they should be from the Phoenix Clan."
"I didn't expect that there would be such a beautiful woman in Jinling City." Ye Xun still had a look of unfulfillment on his face.
"Is this young man talking about the woman in red who just rode past?"
The waiter in the shop brought a pot of good tea and some cakes. He happened to hear the conversation of Ye Xun and the others and couldn't help but interject.
"You know her?"
The boy smiled confidently: "Sir, that girl just now is recognized as the most beautiful woman in Jinling City. Everyone in Jinling City knows that she is the eldest daughter of the master of the Phoenix Sect, and her name is Nangong Jinyi. It is said that it was taken from Huai Jin holding Yu, the meaning of the phoenix coming to the ceremony. Not only is she beautiful, she is also extremely talented in martial arts and her literary talent is first-rate."
"real?"
"No, in the past few years, many young men from high-ranking officials have come to propose marriage, but they were all rejected by Miss Nangong. However, I recently heard that Miss Nangong seemed to have fallen in love with a boatman who was running around on the Tianqing River. , I often go to Tianqing River."
Having said this, Ye Xun suddenly remembered the boatman from the past few days. It turned out that this woman was the young lady who wanted to see him.
"That boatman is really lucky to be favored by Miss Nangong. I wonder how much blessing he accumulated in his previous life."
Ye Xun smiled, dismissed the boy, picked up the tea on the table and drank it all.
Seeing his appearance, Feng Yuxiu thought that Ye Xun was feeling lost, and couldn't help laughing: "Haha, Brother Ye is very disappointed now. The beauty he has been looking at for a long time actually has a sweetheart, but it doesn't matter, Brother Ye can do whatever he wants. He takes love with a knife."
Ye Xun was speechless for a while, and almost choked on the tea he just drank.
At this time, Murong Fu suddenly said: "Young Master Feng may have misunderstood. My Young Master actually already has a fiancée. Not only is his appearance not inferior to that of Miss Nangong just now, but his martial arts talent is also excellent, and his background is equally impressive. "
Feng Yuxiu looked incredulous: "Brother Li, are you serious about this? Brother Ye already has a fiancée? He looks only seventeen or eighteen years old."
Murong Fu smiled and said: "This is true, and my young master's fiancée is no less generous than Miss Nangong just now."
Ye Xun's head was full of black lines. This guy was just talking nonsense. When did I have a fiancée?
Could it be that he was referring to Ye Xiaoxiao?
It's possible, Ye Xun thought to himself, but even if he was really referring to Ye Xiaoxiao, his relationship with this girl has not reached this point, and the three-year agreement has not been fulfilled yet.
Feng Yuxiu was very curious. He moved closer to Murong Fu and asked with a mean smile: "Brother Li, tell me, who is Brother Ye's fiancée? Is she really no less generous than Miss Nangong?"
Murong Fu nodded and smiled: "Of course, my young master's fiancée is Ye Jingyi, the daughter of Senior Ye Qingshan, one of the Six Heroes of Qingshan."
Ye Jingyi?
The tea that Ye Xun had just taken into his mouth spurted out in an instant, causing Linghu Chong, who was sitting opposite him, to turn into a drowned rat.
"Ye Jingyi, the daughter of Ye Qingshan, one of the Six Heroes of Qingshan?" Hearing such a name, Feng Yuxiu seemed a little confused, but he felt that the name was very familiar in his mind, and he tried to recall it.
Suddenly, Feng Yuxiu seemed to think of something and stood up suddenly: "Brother Ye, your fiancée is actually the granddaughter of Qingshan Patriarch, Ye Jingyi, who is known as a thousand-year-old beauty?"
