Chapter 306Two days after they settled down temporarily, the group officially arrived in the territory of the Xuancang Sect.As soon as he arrived in the territory of the Xuancang Sect, the difference from the Blood Refining Sect's sphere of influence immediately came to the fore.Sitting in the carriage, Su Ziyi lifted the curtains of the car, looked out with Bian Qing and Su Yulang, and saw a lively market scene.It was not like the sorrow seen in the town where they had settled before, the ordinary people here either had a warm smile on their faces, or they had a blank face and an expressionless face, and when they saw the cultivators, although there was fear in their eyes, there was also respect and yearning.In this regard, the Xuancang Sect was stronger than the Blood Refining Sect by more than one or two points.Bian Qing is also very interested in this: "Although it is a little worse than Qixia Town, the people here are doing quite well." ”There were wooden houses on both sides of the road, which were raised by the thick trunks of the trees by half a zhang to isolate the excessive moisture, such houses were something that Su Ziyi had never seen before, especially they were still in rows like this, so it was inevitable to take a second look.Chen Qiu came on horseback, and only slowed down when he approached the carriage of the Su family, "Da Da" walked close to the car, and said with a smile on his face: "Walk from here for another half a month, and we will arrive at our Xuancang Sect!"
”As he spoke, his eyes lit up, and he was clearly excited."
I've been away from the sect for so long, and I don't know what happened to the other senior brothers."
He muttered, looking a little like a child."
Eager to return home", he chattered non-stop, a little annoying, but fortunately, he said it to the three members of the Su family who didn't know anything about the situation in the territory of Xuancang Sect, otherwise if they changed someone casually, they would probably have some unbearable want to beat people.And Su Ziyi also got a lot of useful information after knocking on him on the side.In fact, the situation of the Xuancang Sect was similar to that of other forces, in the areas adjacent to other forces, as well as in various important towns, there were disciples and foundation building cultivators to sit in the town, so as to prevent the invasion and interference of other forces.Looking at it this way, the Xuancang Sect obviously pays more attention to the ownership of the territory than the Blood Refining Sect, and easily does not allow the evil cultivation forces to enter, compared to the loose management of the Blood Refining Sect, it is more orderly, and it looks like an army.I don't know what the people of the Blood Refining Sect think.Xuancang Sect is located at the northern end of Dai Kingdom, so the more you go to Xuancang Sect, the higher the terrain will be, and the degree of humidity will begin to decrease.After Su Ziyi and the others walked for five or six days, the wooden houses they saw no longer needed to be held up with pillars at all, except for the different materials, they were no different from those houses in the Yuan Kingdom.This can't help but make them feel a little intimate here.Half a month later, as Chen Qiuci said, they finally reached the vicinity of Xuancang Sect.Although there was no further understanding before, Su Ziyi also speculated based on what Chen Qiuci said, thinking that Xuancang Sect was located on a high mountain.As a result, when he arrived here, he found that the mountain was indeed a high mountain, but this mountain was a little different from what he thought, not a lush peak forest, but a mountain that stretched for hundreds of miles, and the one that was clustered in the middle and the highest was actually a volcano!
Looking at the iconic mountain pass of the volcano, Su Ziyi couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, only to feel that these people from the Xuancang Sect were really ruthless!
There was no pungent smell in the air, and there were patches of green at the top of the volcano, which was not very deep, but it was enough to prove that the vegetation on it was growing well.After smashing his mouth a few times, Su Ziyi couldn't help but ask Chen Qiuci next to him: "If you build the sect here, aren't you afraid of the eruption of that mountain?"
”Chen Qiuci patted his chest with a smile: "Senior, you can rest assured, this volcano has not erupted for a thousand or two thousand years, and it is absolutely safe." ”As he spoke, he also pointed to the location halfway up the mountain, and said proudly: "There are a lot of strange spiritual mines in this volcano, and our master has tried to dig out of the mountain since the founding of the sect, and now the mine has been hit to the mountainside." ”Hearing this, Su Ziyi followed the direction of his finger and looked over, squinted and searched for a while, and really found some houses built on the mountainside.So, this is already an extinct volcano?
Bian Qing and Su Yulang saw the volcano for the first time, so it was inevitable to take a few more looks.It's just that when they follow the traffic into the city, they don't have time to see them anymore, because the town is so bustling!
It was several times more prosperous than any town Su Ziyi and they had seen before, even the extravagant Tianqi City could only be overshadowed in front of this town.It is not because of the gorgeous appearance of the money, nor because of the noisy and noisy inhabitants, but because every piece of wood and stone in this town is engraved with deep traces of history, and it has formed an incomparable sense of heaviness with a long age.The heart in the chest of Bian Qing and Su Yulang beat violently, and they were completely shocked."
Xuancang City was established at the same time as our sect."
Looking at the bustling crowd, Chen Qiuci, who was in charge of introducing the three members of the Su family, was also full of pride in his words: "Xuancang City was established by our founding ancestor, and for more than 3,000 years, it has experienced the same waves as our sect and witnessed the ups and downs of our sect......
To this day, there are still things left over from thousands of years ago in the city. ”"It's really breathtaking."
Su Ziyi was really shocked, so he didn't hesitate to praise his words at all, which made Chen Qiuci's heart a little fluttery.The overall color of Xuancang City is black and white and heavy, but because it has experienced thousands of years of wind and rain, it has a unique charm and sharp edges and corners, which looks like a disciple of Xuancang Sect.Standing at the gate of the city, Su Ziyi and the others looked up, and what they saw were countless black-tiled houses, which stretched from one end of the road to the other, making people unable to see the end at a glance, with the majestic mountains and rivers in the distance and the afterglow of the sunset, it looked extremely magnificent.In such towns, the towers and lofts stand out from the crowd, telling others that those places are not ordinary.Chen Qiuci naturally wouldn't miss to introduce these to Su Ziyi: "Xuancang City is not only the largest and most prosperous town in our Xuancang Sect's territory, but also one of the best existences in the entire Dai Kingdom, so the flow of people is huge, and many forces that are friendly with us have set up branches here to buy and sell and exchange ideas. ”"The high-rise buildings you saw were basically used for trading, or where the actual power branch was located.""
Of course, there are also some ancient forces that have been passed down from the ages, and they are also located in it.""
I can't say these words clearly, I'll take you around the city another day, and you'll know."
After passing through the tall stone and brick wall protecting Xuancang City, Chen Qiuci's whole mood was not calm, and his ass sitting on horseback seemed to be biting him, and his eyes looked straight at the location of the Baili Mountain where Xuancang Sect was located, obviously like an arrow.Seeing this, Su Ziyi and the others couldn't keep him anymore, and after saying a few words politely, they let Chen Qiuci go first.It's just that Chen Qiu resigned from the order of his senior brother Cui Yu, so naturally he didn't dare to leave the Su family here like this.He left the team of Xuancang Sect disciples with the three members of the Su family, and then led them to a secluded alley with ease, and the royal horse walked slowly.It's a pretty beautiful alley.It is not far from the main street, but after Chen Qiuci turned a few corners, the bustle outside was completely isolated, leaving only a quiet piece of silence for this ancient alley with a strong smell of fireworks.I don't know how old the granite slabs on the ground and the gravel walls on both sides are, stubborn weeds emerging from the cracks, and moss growing fluffy lines under the corners of the walls.Look at the wall again, I don't know what kind of flower it is, climb up from the inside, cross the top of the wall, turn into the alley to see the faces and postures of the people passing by, the thin branches are full of dense small green leaves, with the pink flowers that are the size of a baby's fist, under the blowing of the breeze, swinging graceful posture, rippling a refreshing fragrance of flowers.Walking here, no matter how lively a person is, he can't help but lower his voice and slow down his steps.The carriage followed Chen Qiuci until he reached the deepest part of the alley, where there was a house similar to the other families in the alley.The blue-black stone walls, the black-lacquered gates, the delicate patterns carved into the doorknobs, and the waterfall-like sea of pink flowers squeezing out of the walls on both sides of the gate.Stepping on the granite stone steps, Su Ziyi only felt that this family was too emotional.Chen Qiu did not knock on the door after leaving the horse, but directly took out a key from his arms and opened the door, and then greeted the Su family into the courtyard, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, he realized that there was a hole inside, which was not at all like the small door that it looked like outside, on the contrary, it was quite big.A rare two-hall house made of green bricks, the atrium is planted with all kinds of plants and trees, and even a small pond has been dug up, although the lotus flowers in it have failed, but a few koi fish swim in it, which looks so unhappy.After Chen Qiuci led a few people in, he took out a bunch of keys from his arms and handed them to Su Ziyi: "Seniors, you are new to Xuancang City, and you need a place to settle down the most.This is a separate courtyard of Senior Brother Cui Yu, both for living and for cultivation, so Senior Brother asked me to bring you here so that you can have a good rest. ”When Chen Qiuci said this, Su Ziyi remembered that he didn't seem to have seen Cui Yu and others for a while, and he hadn't seen him in the team of Xuancang Sect, and he didn't know where he went.It's really weird to think about it.
