After leaving Qingning City, Chen Luo and others headed east. At this time, the sky was blue and the sun was blowing warm, and the spring breeze was blowing warm. Chen Luo, Yun Siyao, and Lang Feixian took the mastiff Lingling and Jin Guagua in a light carriage, just like a spring outing.
"Sixth Senior Sister." In the carriage, Chen Luo moved to Yun Siyao's side, a little further away from the sleeping senior brother, and asked, "It's about 1,800 miles from Qingning City to the east to the sea. , why didn’t a city be built?”
The post should be close, but the question should be asked sincerely. It is not an important matter. At this time, I am bored on the road, so I just ask it as a casual conversation.
He looked at the map and found that Qingning City was the city closest to Yuanhai within thousands of miles. Logically speaking, it was not impossible for two or three large human cities to be built in these vast areas.
"There is a city, but it's just not shown on the map." Yun Siyao said softly, "The blue sea is vast, and the Yuan Sea is even more boundless. The treasures of heaven, material, and earth are no less than those in the Divine Continent."
"So Daxuan set aside several areas near the sea for water monsters to come ashore for trading. Over time, an area where water monsters gathered was formed."
"Therefore, it is the town of water monsters, not the city of humans!"
"Daxuan did not set up a government office there, so it is naturally not on the map you are looking at. If you look at the world's trade road map, it is more conspicuous than Qingning City."
"Trading town?" Chen Luo suddenly became interested. Now his books occupy the top spots on the Daxuan book bestseller list. Dongcang City has also gone from needing his subsidies to subsidizing him. Ye Dafu has several businesses. Shares, plus some miscellaneous income, even if it is not as good as the top wealthy families, it is still a small fortune. That is to say, things like Hongmeng Qi are really priceless, otherwise they will never give up until they get soft every day.
Don’t you want to take a nice stroll now?
It’s time to enjoy the thrill of spending big bucks!
Seeing Chen Luo's excited face, Yun Siyao smiled and said, "Speaking of which, there is a village under my name. If you are interested, little junior brother, I will give it to you."
Chen Luo was stunned, I just want to go to the mall to spend money, you want to give me the mall?
He let out a long sigh. There is still a long way to go before he can reach his goal of supporting Sixth Senior Sister!
At this moment, I suddenly heard a roar from the mastiff outside the car: "Bold water monster, stop it quickly!"
Chen Luo was surprised. He opened the curtain and saw Jin Guagua flying toward the carriage with a red cloud. Behind Jin Guagua, there were several water monsters with human bodies and fish faces, who were constantly using water spells to attack Jin Guagua.
Chen Luo glanced at it and saw that the water monsters following behind were only at the seventh or eighth level of cultivation and could not hurt Jin Guagua at all, so he felt relieved and walked out of the carriage.
When Jin Guagua saw Chen Luo, he immediately kicked hard on the clouds, drew an arc, and jumped into Chen Luo's hands. Chen Luo frowned and said, "What happened?"
"Quack, quack! (I was exploring the road ahead and saw a village!)" Jin Guagua opened his mouth, his tone still a little aggrieved. It turns out that Jin Guagua is very active and never wants to sit quietly in the carriage. Sometimes he will volunteer to explore (greed) the road (play). Fortunately, he and Chen Luo have some telepathy, so within a hundred miles You won't get lost.
"Quack! (I saw a village, ate a few candies, and drank a few bowls of sweet water.)" Jin Guagua pouted, and then said, "Quack, quack, quack! (I paid the bill with elixir, they said I’m a liar, I gave them fake elixirs, they want to arrest me!)”
"Quack, quack! (I gave them several kinds, but they insisted that they were fake.)"
Chen Luo laughed dumbly and patted Jin Guagua's head. At least the little guy knew how to run back and didn't get violent and hurt anyone, so he shouted: "Master Mastiff, don't hurt anyone!"
Mastiff Lingling knew the identity of Jin Guagua, so she would not be polite when facing the water monster. Just when she was about to take action, she heard Chen Luo's instructions and quickly withdrew the spell, only to release the pressure of the great sage on her body. That kind of The water demon was suddenly struck by lightning, and the weapons in his hands fell to the ground, and their legs became weak.
"It's the Great Sage, the Great Sage!" A clever-looking little water demon shouted and knelt down quickly. The Shui tribe all practice the True Dragon Art, and the suppression of their bloodline is more severe. And Mastiff Lingling is originally from the bloodline of Dragon Mastiff, and now she is only one step away from the second level. Naturally, the slightest hint of aura will restrain the group of water monsters.
"Which one of you is the leader?" Chen Luo put Jin Guagua on his shoulders and walked to the water monsters, "Get up. Tell me, how much money did my brother spend with you?"
The clever water demon said quickly: "It's not worth much, just think of it as our invitation to Mr. Frog."
Jin Guagua was so angry that he shouted: "Qua! (I still need your invitation!)"
"Yes, we meet by chance, so there is no need to spend money. It is only natural that you open the door to do business and ask for an account. Let's talk about it. How much is it?" Chen Luo said with a smile.
"Ten... no, eight, eighty taels of silver!"
Chen Luo nodded and took out a handful of golden melon seeds from the storage order, which he usually prepared to give out as red envelopes to the students of the martial arts academy. Chen Luo walked up to the water demon and put the golden melon seeds into his hand.
"Is it enough?"
The water demon nodded blankly: "More...many." This handful of golden melon seeds was worth hundreds of taels of silver at least. At this moment, he didn't know where he was, and he was afraid that he might have lifted his foot onto the iron plate.
"Okay, the money has been paid. Let's talk about another thing, where is the elixir my brother used to pay off the bill?" Chen Luo said still calmly.
The water demon was startled, looked at Jin Gua Gua, Jin Gua Gua tilted his head: Gua! (snort!)
The water demon looked at Chen Luo, then at the mastiff Lingling who was standing respectfully behind Chen Luo, and suddenly knelt down again: "Sir, please forgive me, my lord, please forgive me."
Chen Luo said with a half-smile, "No, if the elixir is returned to us, most of this matter will be solved."
The water demon looked hesitant. Seeing this, Mastiff Lingling released a trace of the great sage's pressure. The water demon's heart sank and he quickly said: "I say, I say, it is our shopkeeper who is blind and framed Mr. Frog. , in fact, he saw that Mr. Frog was very capable, young, and alone, so he wanted to make some black money!"
Chen Luo then nodded: "I'll tell you what! My brother's elixir is of the highest quality, and you can see the clues in any practice. Since you can already land on the beach and transform, how can you not recognize the treasure?"
"Let's go and meet the shopkeeper of your house." Chen Luozheng was talking. Suddenly, there was a wind behind the water monster. A group of water monsters were seen rushing over. Mastiff Lingling frowned and said through the voice: "Master Hou Be careful, there is a great holy water demon."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a long laugh coming from the billowing demon cloud, and then the demon cloud dispersed. A Pipi shrimp walked out of the demon cloud, transformed into a weird man with a human face and a shrimp body, and said: A Confucian classic: "How wonderful it is to have friends from far away!"
After finishing speaking, he continued: "Dear guest, please do not be angry. What happened today is a misunderstanding! I have found out the truth to ensure that the truth comes to light, and I am here to apologize."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Pipi Xia man actually had a Confucian scholar's robe on his body and a Confucian crown on his head, saluting Chen Luo.
Chen Luo raised his brows. The illogical and clumsy words sounded really awkward, but he reached out to avoid hitting the smiling man and quickly raised his hand: "Who is your Excellency?"
"I'm not Cai Xiachedan, I'm the creditor of Xiamai Village in front of me!" The Pipixi man was very polite, bowed again, and said, "Those who are greedy are like swords; those who are delusional are like chopping boards; now there is someone Using greed as a knife and delusion as a chopping board, you treat yourself like fish and meat.”
As he spoke, the Pipi Shrimp recognized an arm. The arm made a pop on the ground and turned into a fin. He said: "If you are righteous, you will kill your relatives if you are righteous, and if you are poor, you will clean up your family. I'm going to test my chops and give it to him." This is a lesson, please forgive me!"
With that said, Pipi Shrimp saluted again. At the same time, a little demon immediately stepped forward from behind and opened an exquisite box, which contained several pills.
"Quack! (My uncle's elixir!)" Jin Guagua said.
Chen Luo took back the wooden box. Although the words of the Pipi shrimp were confusing, he understood the meaning. It was said that Xia Chedan learned that the shopkeeper bullied Jin Guagua and broke off a fin of the shopkeeper's fish, so he came to return the favor and apologize.
Chen Luo nodded: "May I ask your Excellency, can the shopkeeper's matter be solved with just one blow?"
Xia Chedan shook his head slightly: "No, no, there are still ten years of water prison waiting for him." After saying that, Xia Chedan let out a long sigh, "A gentleman should emerge from the filth without being stained, and wash away the clean ripples. But not a monster. There is a saying: Don’t do good deeds because they are small, and don’t do evil because it is small... Be evil because it is small... Be evil because it is small..."
Xia Chedan wanted to show off a wonderful article he heard not long ago, but he couldn't remember it, so he was stuck for a while. At this time, a group of little water monsters behind him were looking at him with admiring eyes. No matter how you say it, you have to think of it.
Listening to Xia Chedan's eyes rolling up and down, and what he said almost a dozen times, Chen Luo couldn't help but say: "Don't commit a small crime over and over again! Otherwise, it will eventually become a big evil!"
"That's right!" Xia Chedan was overjoyed and quickly followed the conversation, then looked at Chen Luo: "It turns out he is a senior from the Confucian sect!"
Chen Luo smiled and shook his head: "I am not a Confucian scholar, but this sentence is a famous sentence written in "Three Kingdoms" by Wuhou, a man of unparalleled talent and knowledge. It has already become famous all over the world."
After saying that, Chen Luo asked curiously: "Is Sir a Confucianist?"
Xia Che nodded calmly: "To be honest with you, the water tribes in this area of 800 miles of water must either practice Confucianism or Taoism!"
Chen Luo was puzzled. Confucianism and Taoism all require a talent for reading. Are all the water demons here so talented? So he asked again: "All of them have a talent for reading?"
Xia Che shook his head calmly: "How can I have any talent for reading through?"
"Then how to read the classics of Confucianism and Taoism?" Chen Luo asked again.
"Is this your first time coming to our 'Zhihu Zhedao Chain Village'?" Xiache smiled faintly, "The creatures in our water area are born with a strange disease, that is, there is always a strange sound in the head, as if thousands of People chatter at you.”
"Later, someone discovered that when people read Confucian or Taoist classics, the sound will become weaker."
"As time goes by, although we are water monsters, we also practice Confucianism and Taoism!"
"Starting from my ancestors, my grandfather, and my father, it has been like this for generations. Our Xi family can be regarded as the most powerful Confucian demon in this area!"
Chen Luo patted his forehead: Just using a poem that doesn't convey the true meaning and makes the Confucian scholar mad to death!
