Orchid City is a small city where the east and north of the Saint Continent meet.
This place is far away from the sect's sphere of influence.
The largest manager in name is the city lord.
The city lord is elected every three years and is rotated among the three families living in the city.
When Gu Tian felt that he could see bright light in front of his eyes, he had already arrived at the bank of a river outside Youlan City.
Fortunately, it was dark at that time and no one was around, otherwise he would have scared people out of nowhere by appearing out of thin air.
Even so, when a gray rabbit by the river saw him suddenly appearing in front of him, he was so frightened that he rolled around on the ground before wiping his head and running away.
The four legs, which were relatively short for a human being, used up the greatest strength in their lives and disappeared without a trace into the distant grass in a blink of an eye.
Of course, this is because Gu Tian didn't catch it, otherwise no matter how fast it ran away, he would still be able to catch it.
Some distance along the river bank, there is a stone bridge that is two feet wide and five feet long.
Perhaps because of the night, it is difficult to see anyone walking on it.
There are two stone lions squatting at both ends of the bridge.
The statues are so lifelike that from a distance, it seems like several real lions are guarding the bridge.
After crossing the stone bridge, not far ahead is the ancient city of Orchid.
At this moment, the lights hanging high above the city gate tower are like beacons.
From far away, you can see the faint lights twinkling in the dark night sky.
The city gates of Youlan City are rarely closed.
Even at night, the city gates are all wide open.
With the moonlight in the sky, one can quickly walk from the city gate to the city. héiyaпgěZui Xin Chapter, Jie Yi Gang New As soon as you enter the city, you can see that the streets in the city are lined with red lights on both sides, many of which are lanterns hanging outside the door.
Most of these lanterns are used by various shops to attract the attention of passers-by.
It's not too late yet, and the streets are very lively with people coming and going.
This is also because Youlan City is located in the trading place between the east and the north.
There are many merchants coming and going in Youlan City, which also greatly increases the number of people in Youlan City.
Popularity.
Gutian found a lantern hanging in front of a house with the word "Ke 039" written on it, opened the door and walked in.
There are five tables in the hall, and four of them are occupied by people.
Everyone is either eating or drinking, or exchanging glasses with each other.
No one pays attention to a stranger coming in, and even if they see it, no one will care.
At this time, the waiter walked over quickly, stood in front of him, and asked politely: "It's an elegant place upstairs in the guest house.
You and I can go upstairs with you."
Working in such a place where three religions and nine streams gather all the year round, the waiter in the shop has long developed a pair of discerning eyes.
When he saw Gu Tian for the first time, he felt that he did not look like an ordinary person and was probably a young man from a certain family in the business. kind of big shot.
Such customers are basically wealthy patrons, and the waiters will do their best to serve them.
Gu Tian nodded, followed the waiter, climbed directly to the second floor, came to a seat near the window and sat down.
The waiter wiped the table with the rag on his shoulder, made another pot of tea and brought it over, and then asked respectfully: "Sir, what would you like to order?"
"Here are some of your specialty dishes and a glass of wine."
"Okay, just wait a moment.
I'll be back in a moment."
After saying that, the waiter ran downstairs quickly.
After a while, he came over from the corner of the stairs carrying a large wooden tray.
There were several kinds of cooked food on the wooden tray, which were placed directly on the table by the waiter.
Finally, he took out a wine pot and wine glass, and filled the wine glass.
"Sir, please take your time."
The waiter waved his hand to the food on the table, then picked up the wooden tray and bowed out.
Gu Tian first picked up the wine glass, raised his head, and drank a glass of water and wine down his throat.

Then he picked up the chopsticks at hand, picked up a piece of cooked beef on the plate, put it into his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it.
When he was just halfway through eating, he suddenly heard the sound of someone going upstairs from the stairs at the corner.
Judging from the footsteps, it seemed that it was not a person.
Soon, he saw the waiter leading a man and a woman to the second floor and taking them to another table to sit down.
After a man and a woman ordered their dishes, the waiter ran downstairs quickly.
He ran up and down the stairs with nimble steps.
It didn't take long for the table for a man and a woman to be filled with wine and food.
However, Gu Tian noticed that the faces of the man and the woman were not very good, especially the face of the woman next to him, whose face was gloomy, as if someone owed her money.
"The He family has really gone too far this time.
Why should they withhold our goods?"
"Okay, Fourth Sister, don't be angry.
Let's go to the City Lord's Mansion tomorrow and ask City Lord Ouyang to administer justice."
"City Lord Ouyang, I think the three major families in Youlan City are all the same."
"Fourth sister is forbidden to speak.
This is Orchid City."
The man hurriedly stopped the woman beside him from talking and looked around carefully.
I was relieved to see a young man sitting just in the direction of the window, eating and not paying attention to their conversation.
"Why are we afraid that the He family in Orchid City would do such an unfaithful thing?
We're afraid that people won't be able to explain it."
Although the woman said this, her voice still dropped and she began to talk to the man in a low voice.
Gu Tian was not interested in other people's secrets.
He just overheard a few words accidentally.
After noticing that a man and a woman lowered their voices, he just smiled and did not deliberately eavesdrop.
Like an ordinary diner, pick up the chopsticks in your hand, eat the dishes on the plate, and drink the water and wine from the pot.
But this kind of peace did not last long.
Suddenly there was a roar of chickens and dogs and the sound of someone yelling downstairs.
Soon, some chaotic footsteps came from the direction of the stairs.
After a while, five or six warriors dressed as servants followed a middle-aged man up to the second floor.
A man and a woman who were eating next to them stood up from their seats with gloomy faces after seeing the middle-aged man and the servant behind him.
The more impatient woman pointed her finger at the middle-aged man and asked sternly: "He Er, what do you mean by bringing so many people here to arrest us brothers and sisters?"
"By the order of the Third Master, I would like to invite the Second Young Master Lin and the Fourth Miss Lin to come back to He's house with me to be a guest."
The middle-aged man said it was an invitation, but there was no hint of inviting someone to be a guest in his tone.
"Fart, what the hell, Mr.
Third, we will go to the City Lord's Mansion tomorrow.
I want to see if Youlan City is in charge of your He family."
The woman had a hot temper and cursed.
"Go back and tell your third master that our Lin family can't afford to disturb your He family.
Let's just forget about being guests."
The man said coldly from the side.
"It's better for you two to go and don't make things difficult for me."
The middle-aged man waved his arms, and the servants behind him immediately dispersed and gathered around.
"The He family is really overbearing.
You can't arrest people instead of asking for help."
The man said coldly, and the wine glass in his hand was crushed by him.
The middle-aged man just glanced at the wine glass that was broken into several pieces, curled the corner of his mouth slightly, and showed a touch of disdain on his face.

"You two had better follow me back to He's house.
If you really want to take action, it might not be good if you get hurt."
"Stop talking nonsense, if you can, we will be captured back to the He family."
The woman opened her stance and looked at the He family servants surrounding them warily.
"Since Miss Lin Si said so, you're welcome."
The middle-aged man sneered and said to the servants, "Do it and take down these two
