The people next to him were still noisy, but Su Xing did not slow down, but the sensitive ears brought by the bat spirit allowed the voices of several people to talk clearly to his ears.
"Xiahe Village? Why did I hear about Liujia'ao!"
"Stop arguing. I know best. In fact, you are all right. There were dragon species in these places yesterday!"
As soon as this statement came out, several people quarreled even more fiercely, and almost no one believed the person who said this.
"Hey~ don't believe it, otherwise you think it was a coincidence that so many Holuo fish came out of the water yesterday? It was the Dragon King who showed up! It is said that even the temple blessings of the Dragon Temple were alarmed!"
Su Xing's expression remained unchanged, but he recalled Lu Ke at the scene yesterday. If you have the chance, you can go to the Dragon Temple to visit the other party.
More than two-quarters of an hour later, the two arrived at a tall and solid city gate, which was the south gate of the inner city.
A huge dragon is embossed on the city gate, resembling a big snake but without horns, lifelike, its eyes staring at the passers-by passing under the gate.
The gate is extremely high, about twenty meters high, and the thick walls connecting both sides extend into the distance. This is also a characteristic of Pinjiang City. The outer city wall is only two or three meters tall, but the inner city wall is more than 20 meters tall.
The inner and outer immortals are isolated from the mortal world, and because the gate is painted with a dragon, the inner city gate is also nicknamed "Dragon Gate".
It means that those who enter the city from outside the city will transform into dragons, and it also means that it is as difficult for mortals to enter the city as crossing the dragon gate.
Su Xing looked at the exquisite reliefs on the city gate for a few times. The two pearls inlaid on the dragon's eyes shone faintly even in the daytime.
This bead alone is worth a lot of money, even better than the clam bead he once gave to the girl in white, Acacia - from a clam demon in the qi training realm in his storage bag.
However, considering that Pinjiang is the territory of the Dragon King and has many aquatic tribes, including clam monsters, it is not surprising.
The reason why Su Xing took a few more glances was because he practiced Talismanism and had some knowledge of formation techniques, and he could see from the door that the relief was actually a large formation.
"Does this fellow Taoist want to enter the inner city?" A man in white walked up to Su Xing and asked in a friendly manner.
Behind him, several red-armored soldiers guarded the city gate meticulously.
Su Xing nodded:
"That's true. It's my first time to enter Pinjiang Nei City, and I don't understand the procedures. I hope fellow Taoists don't blame me."
"It doesn't matter." The young man in white glanced at the two of them and said casually:
"A monk only needs to pay one spirit stone for a day to enter the city. You can pay it in advance with me, or you can top it up before leaving the city. There are no special restrictions on the rest. Fellow Taoist can come with me to register."
Later, Su Xing handed over six spiritual stones and obtained two red lacquer tokens with dark wood, clouds and dragon patterns from the young man in white.
With his spiritual sense, he felt that the wooden tablet contained a simple formation, with the word "three" appearing on the surface.
Although the formation is simple, whether it is modified or damaged, it will draw the attention of Pinjiang inner city.
"The most famous one in the inner city is the Pinjianglong Temple. Fellow Taoists from Fangshi in the east can also go there..." The young man in white patiently introduced it to the two of them.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist. My name is Su Xing. I don't know your surname." Su Xing asked equally politely.
"Haha, my name is Liu Lu, and I hold the title of Nanmen Siyan. If my fellow Taoist has anything to do, just ask General Chi Jia in the city to tell me my name."
"Thank you."
The two exchanged a few polite words, and Su Xing led Lin Xixi into the tall city gate.
When entering the city, I turned around.
In front of the tall city gate, there were only a few red-armored generals standing.
The city wall like a mountain of rocks spreads into the distance, and some figures gradually appear. The green smoke disperses in the corners and stretches endlessly. Those are the believers who cannot enter the inner city.
Maybe their wishes can cross the tall city wall and be delivered to the Dragon King.
Without looking much, Su Xing turned around and walked towards the tall inner city.
...
Wait until the two of them go away.
Nanmen Siyan Liulu sat down again in the small pavilion in front of the door. A red-armored general next to him came over curiously and asked:
"Sir, is there anything special about these two people? Sir Lao, please entertain them yourself."
After taking a sip of tea, Liu Lu said lightly:
"Didn't you see that young man looking at the city gate for a long time?"
"Although the Flood Dragon Diagram is a formation, it naturally contains a sense of oppression. Monks cannot look at it for a long time. But if you want to force each other to look at each other, you have to do it. Even a villain can do it."
"Haha." Liu Lu put down the tea cup, "You? How long have you been practicing Taoism? Looking at the girl's appearance, it is obvious that she has not been in the mountains for a long time."
"this......"
"Rotten wood cannot be carved! With such a young and powerful monk, coupled with the recent rumors that the young monk of the Purple Jade Sect is 'returning home', what else can you think of?
Even if not, it should be a good relationship. "
"Best regards, sir!"
...
After entering the inner city, the aura content in the air instantly increased to a higher level.
Pinjiang City is surrounded by water veins, and there is a large formation in the city that can gather the surrounding spiritual energy. Therefore, even though the inner city occupies a large area, the quality of the spiritual energy is not inferior to that of some small sects.
This is also a place where Pinjiang City attracts casual cultivators. However, the "entering fee" for one spiritual stone per day is not cheap either.
It is not as noisy and crowded as the outer city. Large pieces of bluestone are paved on the ground, and there are only a few pedestrians on the wide and smooth roads.
The token exchanged for entering the city contains a simple map of the inner city. The central area is Tonghai Mountain, on which Pinjianglong Temple is located. To the west is the city lord's palace, and Su Xing and the other two are going to visit Fangshi in the east first.
When we entered Fangshi, the criss-crossing bluestone road became more popular. There were shops open along the way, and there were also monks setting up stalls on the spot.
Many shops are the headquarters of some sects, and Su Xing even saw a signboard with the word "Purple Jade" on it.
This is the Purple Jade Sect's station in Pinjiang City, but unlike the shops that are also used for business, the Purple Jade Sect's station has its own courtyard, which is specially used for the disciples who come and go to rest or pass news.
Su Xing did not enter the sect's station. Although Pinjiang City is prosperous, it does not refuse foreigners and has many monks. But the local Pinjiang Water Palace is very powerful. Therefore, most of the outside monks in the city are casual cultivators. Even if the Purple Jade Sect is stationed here, the monks within it are not at a high level, so there is no need for Su Xing to pay a special visit.
I just took Lin Xixi to wander around the market, and the two of them also bought some items.
There was a lack of fireworks in the inner city, so the two didn't wander around for long and found an inn to rest.
On the second day, we went straight to Tiehai Mountain in the middle of the inner city.
When a monk visits Tonghai Mountain, he needs to submit a greeting card in advance. Liu Lu had reminded the two of them yesterday.
Su Xing did not emphasize the identity of the Purple Jade Sect, and the greeting card only said "casual cultivator". However, Tiehai Mountain does not prohibit monks from visiting, so the two of them climbed to the mountain gate smoothly.
The stone steps along the way are covered with moss, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. Across the lush green forest, you can see the tall dragon god statue on the top of the mountain from a distance.
Not long after, the two of them had finished walking up the steps.
Not far away, a vast temple came into view.
