In early August, it is midsummer.
The scorching heat is becoming more and more ruthless, and even the monks in the city who are supposed to be immune to the cold and heat seem to be affected by this damn weather, and they are all listless.
This is Tianjing City on Longshou Mountain.
It is the place where the dragon veins in the north gather, and it is the place that all monks in Kyushu yearn for.
At least that's what the city guide who took the initiative said.
"Tianjing City is divided into nine floors. The lower three floors are mostly mortals related to monks, or some small business houses. The middle three floors are different. Those who can move here are at least those in the third realm. Seniors who are above the Fourth Realm.”
The guide was meticulous, even though the gray-haired young man in front of him ignored him at all.
"Sir, the Lanke Building you are going to is on the sixth floor, which belongs to the middle and third floors. This Lanke Building has its origins. Ordinary people only think of it as a chess building, specially for the entertainment of chess players who like to play chess. But you have to be a well-informed person like me in the city to know that there is actually a place to buy information."
Speaking of this, the guide deliberately lowered his voice.
"As long as you want to know the legend, there is nothing you can't find in Lanke Building."
Hearing this, Lin Ji paused slightly.
"Seeing as you are only in the second level, can you go to the third level?"
The two of them had arrived at the junction of the third and fourth floors, where they were guarded by city guards.
"You can go up, you can go up." The guide nodded quickly, pointed at the guard and said, "That person is my friend. I owe my good information to this friend who works as a guard in the city."
As if to prove his words, the guide nodded to the guard from a distance.
Lin Ji didn't care about this.
"I just entered the city and you said it's not my first time here. Are you afraid that I won't give you the money?"
"Sir, you have a majestic appearance, and you look like a noble person at first glance. How can you be so young like three melons and two dates?"
"You don't have business on weekdays, so you are cheating money like this?" Lin Ji raised his eyebrows.
The guide didn't care at all. He seemed to be emboldened by his impatience, and he was not afraid of Lin Ji falling out.
"Sir, what you said is that you are not from Tianjing City. You will always be useful to villains in the future."
"Then I don't need it now, can you leave?"
"The young one has lost a lot of his words by following us all the way. What do you think, sir?"
Hearing this, Lin Ji narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the boy, then grinned.
"There's no reward, but a lot of slaps. What if you don't want it?"
As soon as these words came out, the guide suddenly looked worried, but he didn't say anything. He just bowed his hands and stepped back half a step.
"Then, even if I'm a villain and lost my sight after eating shit, I should teach you a lesson."
"Don't let your guard brother embarrass me?" Lin Ji was a little surprised.
"If you let him embarrass you, sir, he will abuse his power. When the time comes, he will lose his job, and I will be even more difficult to get around in the city. I can still tell the difference between a good meal and a good meal."
While he was talking, there was a sudden noise from behind.
"Stand guard when traveling, and those who are idle should stay away!"
A loud shout was heard, and then a rather thin middle-aged man was seen walking slowly to the junction of the fourth and third floors from the direction of the third floor.
He frowned slightly, as if he was dissatisfied with the guard's shout, but he did not refute it.
"You have to wait until you are on duty. Kyushu is not at peace recently. In just a few days, more than a dozen transformed monsters have been caught in the city. There seem to be ghosts hiding in the lower three floors. Don't be careless."
"I understand." The guards bowed their heads and saluted.
When they raised their heads, they saw the guard's eyes fixed on a young man not far away, his eyes fixed on him.
Seeing this, the guards were suddenly shocked.
"No, that person is a monster! What a bold monster, daring to run rampant under the noses of our guards. Come on, capture him!"
The boss laughed at him, this monster is really hateful!
Just as the guards were preparing to show off their skills, Xiao Changqing chuckled.
"I think it's best to take you down. Stop flattering and stay away."
When the guard leader heard this, he immediately realized that he had made a joke, so he quickly called the brothers to step aside.
the other side.
Lin Ji looked at Xiao Changqing walking towards him and suddenly felt a little emotional.
The first time he came to Tianjing City, he met Governor Xiao.
This guy seems to be a fan of shemale love, and even gave birth to a fox girl.
What's the name of that little fox? It should be Hu Yujiao.
Hu Meizi later built a Qunfang Garden in Beijing, which was a good place to go.
While thinking about it in his mind, Lin Ji suddenly felt his sleeve being tugged.
Turning around, he saw the guide looking nervous.
"This is the Lord Guard of the city. Why don't you bow quickly, sir?"
As he said that, the guide knelt on the ground and did not dare to say a word.
Lin Ji ignored him and looked at Xiao Changqing, who was already approaching.
"Xiao Changqing has met Fellow Daoist Lin." Xiao Changqing took the lead in saluting, then looked at Lin Ji seriously before continuing, "The last time I met Fellow Daoist Lin was two years ago. Xiao would also like to thank Fellow Daoist Lin for letting me go. That ignorant girl has a way out."
"Even if Sheriff Xiao wants to be polite, there is no need to make such a lame excuse. At that time, Lin was only in the realm of Yuanshen, so rounding and flattening was not just a matter of Xiao Zhenshou's words? It should be Lin who thanked Sheriff Xiao for not making things difficult in the first place. That’s right.”
Hearing this, Xiao Changqing laughed and said: "Hahaha, Xiao is not good at dealing with people, don't blame fellow Taoist Lin. Why did fellow Taoist come to Tianjing City this time?"
"A trip to Lanke House made me an unwilling favor."
Lin Ji came here for the owner of Lanke Loujian. He got the formation disk in the Holy Fire Secret Realm from Qiu Rujun, which is the key to the innate Taoist artifact Tianyan Diagram.
He didn't want to get involved in this matter anymore, because he planned to hand this thing to Lord Jian, which would be a repayment of the debt of gratitude that Lord Jian had forcibly stuffed away in the first place, but it didn't have much effect.
When he heard that Lin Ji was going to Lanke Building, Xiao Changqing said helplessly: "It turns out that Fellow Daoist Lin is still involved in important matters, so it's hard for Xiao to speak."
"Why, Guard Xiao needs Lin's help?" Lin Ji was a little surprised.
It was only the second time that he and Xiao Changqing met. If anything could happen to him, he could blame him.
"Several demon kings came from the mountains below the city to occupy the mountains and forests. They want to share the luck of the northern dragon vein and use it to cultivate. Xiao went here just for them."
"Come out of the Demon Suppression Tower?"
"yes."
"I'm sorry that Lin is powerless. If Xiao Zhenshou is unable to deal with the matter in Tianjing City, there are also the big shots on the third floor." Lin Ji naturally did not want to take action in vain.
Xiao Changqing was not surprised, just sarcastic.
"A group of selfish people are not worth mentioning."
Seeing that Lin Ji was unwilling to help, he didn't mention it again, but looked at the boy kneeling aside.
"Who is this person?"
"He must be the guide in the city. Just now he was thinking about how many Yuanjing tweeds he was going to steal from Lin."
As soon as he said this, the bodies kneeling on the ground began to sway.
Who would have thought that Xiao Changqing was too lazy to care.
"Then fellow Taoist Lin will reward him with a few yuan crystals."
After the words fell, Xiao Changqing bowed his hands again, and then left quickly.
Watching him leave gracefully, Lin Ji thought for a while and finally found some Yuan Jing.
"Lin saved Xiao Zhen's face, and this is your reward."
