The capital of Chenliang Kingdom.
Although there is abundant spiritual energy here, it is more oriented towards the secular world. As Zhang Chu and Xiao Wutong saw, those who could cultivate the life well were already very few.
"It seems that the situation here is somewhat similar to that of the Demon Ruins. It is not so easy for ordinary people to embark on the path of cultivation." Zhang Chu thought in his heart.
"Hide your tail. I think the streets are full of humans. If you look like a rabbit demon, you might scare others." Zhang Chu said to Xiao Wutong.
Little Wutong was very good, hiding her little tail, and then followed Zhang Chu to the street, jumping up and down, very happy.
After a while, Xiao Wutong had marshmallows in his left hand and candied haws in his right hand, and his eyes narrowed with a happy smile.
"Jade Rabbit Tower!" Xiao Wutong suddenly stopped. She saw a hotel named after the Jade Rabbit.
"Wow, hubby, look, Yutulou, isn't this a restaurant opened just for me? The wine inside must be delicious. Let's go and try it." Xiao Wutong said.
But Zhang Chu took one look at the restaurant and said, "I think the situation inside may be different from what you imagined."
"What's the difference? Come with me!"
Xiao Wutong was very interested. She stuffed the candied haws into the mouth of a passing child, took Zhang Chu's hand, and skipped towards the "Jade Rabbit Building".
There was a lot of people inside, and all kinds of aromas came to my face. Xiao Wutong smelled it intoxicatedly, and was very happy: "Wow, it smells so good. I really came here right."
"You two, please come inside!" The waiter at a shop called Zhang Chu and Xiao Wutong.
After Xiao Wutong sat down, he immediately asked: "What's your best signature dish at Yutulou?"
The waiter immediately said: "Since it is the Jade Rabbit Restaurant, our signature dish must be related to rabbits."
"We have spicy griddle rabbit, braised rabbit head, sauce-flavored rabbit legs, stir-fried rabbit liver, five-spice rabbit tongue, steamed rabbit feet, sweet and sour rabbit spine..."
Xiao Wutong was originally very interested, but when he heard the names of these dishes, Xiao Wutong's expression froze.
Zhang Chu was holding back his smile.
Before the waiter finished announcing the name of the dish, Tu Xiaowu gritted his teeth and said, "You guys eat Tutu!"
But the waiter didn’t realize the seriousness of the problem, and he proudly explained:
"Our rabbits are different from rabbits in other places. The ones near the capital are small fragrant rabbits. Not only do they not have the smell of ordinary rabbits, but their meat is tender and rich in oil. The taste is unparalleled!"
"Especially the steamed rabbit's feet. They are soft and tender. When you take a bite, your mouth will be full of oil. Paired with a pot of osmanthus wine, the taste is amazing!"
"Ah..." Tu Xiaowu became angry, and she stood up immediately.
Her little tail was originally hidden, but now, it suddenly came out and was waving crazily.
At the same time, Tu Xiaowu showed a fierce expression: "How dare you—eat Tutu!"
A strong wind spread with Tu Xiaowu as the center, and countless tables, chairs, benches, and even many diners were overturned. The waiter in the shop was even blown far away by the strong wind.
At this moment, many diners around were stunned.
When the waiter in the shop saw the short tail behind Tu Xiaowu, he was so frightened that he screamed: "Rabbit demon!"
"There's a monster!"
"Run quickly, the demon has entered the city!"
"Hurry and invite King Qin!"
"Run, the monster is coming!"
Tu Xiaowu's sudden attack caused the whole restaurant to sit in confusion.
Zhang Chu said hurriedly: "Xiao Wutong, don't go crazy."
At the same time, Zhang Chu shouted: "Don't be afraid, she won't hurt anyone."
However, in Chenliang Kingdom, the monster entering the city is an extremely scary legend. Everyone is scared to death, fearing that if they run too slowly, they will be eaten by the rabbit monster.
Tu Xiaowu didn't hurt anyone, but she was still very dissatisfied and said: "How can people eat rabbits, rabbits are so cute."
"Also, I don't kill people. Why are they running away? Am I that scary?" At this moment, Tu Xiaowu was actually a little depressed.
Zhang Chu comforted him: "The secular world is like this, everyone is afraid of monsters."
At this moment, there was a commotion on the street.
"The King of Qin is here!"
"King Qin, go to the Jade Rabbit Tower quickly, there is a rabbit demon coming there!"
"Run quickly, the rabbit demon is eating people!"
"That rabbit demon is so terrifying. It has already eaten the heart of the shop owner. The waiters in the shop also had their necks bitten off. I heard that the rabbit demon is killing the entire street."
…
At this moment, the streets were in complete chaos, especially near the Jade Rabbit Tower. People were stumbling away like headless flies.
Zhang Chu and Tu Xiaowu walked out of the restaurant. As soon as they went out, they saw Qin Zheng leading a dozen people, running towards them in a hurry.
"King Qin, kill them quickly, they are monsters!" someone shouted.
On the street, many panicked people seemed to have taken reassurance, and they all stopped and looked at Qin Zheng.
Qin Zheng had not been in the capital of Chenliang for a long time, but his prestige was very grand. Not long after his arrival, he killed three large demon forces entrenched nearby, so that there would no longer be monsters causing trouble near the capital.
Seeing Qin Zheng appear so soon, everyone was full of expectations.
However, Qin Zheng's face was full of excitement. From a distance, Qin Zheng shouted: "Sir, you are here!"
Zhang Chu was a little surprised. Unexpectedly, he met Qin Zheng here.
At this time, Qin Zheng shouted to everyone: "Don't be afraid, everyone, this is the Rabbit Fairy, and he doesn't kill people."
Qin Zheng's prestige was very high. With just one word from him, the commotion on the street calmed down.
"Oh, no wonder the Rabbit Fairy is angry, it turns out he entered the Jade Rabbit Tower."
"The King of Qin said that the Rabbit Immortal doesn't kill people, so it must be fine. Let's go."
…
In a restaurant, Qin Zheng filled Zhang Chu and Tu Xiaowu with osmanthus wine.
Tu Xiaowu's mood came and went quickly.
At this moment, Xiao Wutong had put all the unhappiness behind her. She drank a glass of wine and breathed happily: "Wow, it's sweet and delicious!"
Zhang Chu asked Qin Zheng: "What a coincidence. Why are you here?"
Qin Zheng replied: "It's not a coincidence. I figured that your husband might come here, so I came in advance."
"Oh?" Zhang Chu was surprised.
At this time, Qin Zheng said: "I have heard a long time ago that Sir and Boss Niu Meng were in a team of bone collectors, so I guess that Sir may come to the capital of Chenliang Kingdom."
With that said, Qin Zheng poured Zhang Chu a glass of wine.
"So, I came to Chenliang Kingdom in advance."
Zhang Chu couldn't help but ask: "Is this Chenliang Kingdom under your control?"
Qin Zheng said: "Yes, I come from Ancient Wilderness Academy. Under Ancient Wilderness Academy, I control more than 1,700 small countries such as Chenliang Kingdom. If I want Chenliang Kingdom, just say hello to the academy. .”
Zhang Chu was surprised: "The academy can actually control so many countries?"
Qin Zheng nodded: "Yes, sir, don't you know? In the very center of Zhongzhou, the three major academies not only control countless countries, but even many mountain gates and caves must obey the three major academies."
"So that's it." Zhang Chu didn't expect that Zhongzhou Academy's status would be so high.
But when I think about it carefully, I feel relieved.
No matter which world, power is respected. Whoever controls the strongest power will be the master of the world.
In Zhongzhou, the power of the major academies is completely superior to the world, and can even rival hundreds of schools of thought and the ancient families. Of course, these academies have endless power.
At this time Qin Zheng said: "Now, although the owner of Chenliang Kingdom is not me, it is my vassal state and needs to pay taxes to me every year."
"The treatment in your academy is so good." Zhang Chu felt incredible.
Next to Qin Zheng, a girl said with envy: "It's not that the treatment in the academy is good, but that senior brother Qin is strong. After returning to the academy this time, senior brother Qin defeated many old opponents and became the number one person in the spiritual realm. .”
Another woman also said: "Only talented people like Senior Brother Qin can choose their own country at will. Ordinary disciples in the academy do not have this power."
Qin Zhengze said gratefully: "Thank you, sir."
"How is Boss Niu Meng?" Zhang Chu asked.
At this time, Qin Zheng said: "Boss Niu Meng is very kind. In the capital, when mentioning Boss Niu Meng, many respectable people in the city will respectfully call him Niu Meng."
It turned out that after Niu Meng got rich, he bought a large manor here, covering an area of 200,000 acres.
Then, Niu Meng adopted a group of poor children without fathers and mothers, raised them in the manor, and taught them how to practice.
Moreover, Niu Meng is very generous. If anyone can't afford a meal, he can just walk to the door of her manor and say something, and he can have a hot meal.
At this time, Qin Zheng said: "By the way, I have already asked the leader of Chenliang Kingdom not to make things difficult for him, nor to give him any deliberate preferential treatment."
Zhang Chu nodded: "I'm interested."
Xiao Wutong suggested: "Let's go see Boss Niu Meng."
Zhang Chu thought about it and finally shook his head: "Forget it, I won't go see her."
"I'm not jealous!" Xiao Wutong shouted.
Zhang Chu smiled: "I don't want to disturb her anymore."
After all, the two sides will have completely different paths. Zhang Chu came to visit her this time just to see her live a stable life. With this result, there is no need to worry anymore.
Qin Zhengze said: "Sir, if you want to take a look at her from a distance, you can come to Wufeng Mountain. There, you can see the manor of Boss Niu Meng."
On a mountain peak, Zhang Chu and Xiao Wutong looked in the direction pointed by Qin Zheng.
Zhang Chu's spiritual power traveled to his eyes and ears, and his six senses and spiritual senses were suddenly enhanced countless times.
Zhang Chu saw that in a palace, Niu Meng was carving a small stone figure with a carving knife. The figure's posture and charm were very similar to Zhang Chu's, but Niu Meng did not carve the face of the stone figure.
Suddenly, several children broke into the mansion, chattering and laughing non-stop. One of the children accidentally fell down, and his cry interrupted Niu Meng. The carving knife in Niu Meng's hand tilted, and the stone fell. People are ruined.
Niu Meng immediately became angry, and she shouted with a tigerish face: "Niu Erzhuang, Niu Xiaoyuan, Niu Lili, you are naughty again, I will punish you to practice the ruler method ten more times, and you will not be allowed to eat dinner until you finish practicing!"
"Oh..." Several children lowered their heads, looking quite afraid of the bull.
Niu Meng drove the children out of the mansion, sighed, and carefully placed the broken stone figures on a bookshelf. Looking carefully, there were dozens of small stone figures listed on the bookshelf. people.
Each stone figure has no carved face.
After Niu Meng put down the stone man, he came to the pool alone and was in a daze.
After a while, Niu Meng came to another courtyard, where dozens of children, holding stone rulers in their hands, continued to practice a crude ruler technique, which looked very clumsy.
But Niu Meng looked at those children with a happy smile on her face, and she murmured to herself:
"I will never be able to catch up with you in my life, but I hope that one day, there will be a child who can catch up with you..."
At this moment, a child came to Niu Meng and asked in confusion: "Boss, why do you want us to practice ruler skills and sword skills? Isn't the sword skill good?"
"Stop talking nonsense, just practice whatever I ask you to do!" Niu Meng scolded with a straight face.
Then, Niu Meng looked at his butler: "Butler, I asked you to spend a lot of money to hire a master who knows how to use rulers. Why can't you find one?"
The old housekeeper looked helpless: "Master, it's not that I don't care, it's just that there are too few people who know how to use rulers."
"Look, add more money, I don't believe you can't find a gentleman who knows how to use rulers if you have money." Niu Meng shouted.
"As you command!"
…
Zhang Chu looked at that scene and pondered for a long time.
Three days later, Zhang Chu and Xiao Wutong were on the road again.
This time, their target is Southern Wilderness and Moon Shadow State.
On top of the city gate of the capital of Chenliang Kingdom, Qin Zheng looked in the distance in the direction of Zhang Chu's departure, holding a set of secret scrolls of the Ruler Technique, watching Zhang Chu and the others leave.
Zhang Chu's voice echoed in Qin Zheng's mind: "The secret scroll will be old. In half a month, find an opportunity to give this set of rulers to Niu Meng."
