The city has not yet fully woken up, and countless smoke curls up, so you can imagine how prosperous and lively the city should be during the day.Jing Jiu and Zhao Layue stood side by side on the shore, and the hat had already been thrown away.When they walked at night, they realized that because they were walking too fast and the wind was not light, the hats could easily be blown away.At this time, they wrapped their entire heads and faces with two gray cloth towels, looking a little like the ascetic monks of Guocheng Temple in the Northland.The turbid water of the river is indeed very muddy, the water is extremely fierce, the river is full of turbulence and whirlpools, it looks extremely dangerous, and who knows what monsters are hidden inside?
Many years ago, the people on both sides of the strait did not dare to cross the river by boat, which was equivalent to cutting off the traffic, until the Qingshan Sect was founded, and the patriarch of the Kaipai sent the disciples of the former Laifeng to use the supreme immortal method to move the earth and stone here, build a bridge, and use the sword array to suppress the demon beasts hidden in the middle, so that the problem was fundamentally solved.Because the turbid river is too wide, so the middle of this circular arch bridge is also extremely high, especially when the clouds and mist rise, looking at the past from both sides of the river, this bridge seems to be going to the sky, extremely magnificent, so there is a name of the bridge to the sky, but it has nothing to do with the name of Chaotian Continent.Standing on the shore and looking at this incomparably magnificent high bridge, Jing Jiu's mood was a little strange.Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles, the words of the sages really make sense.When he was very young, he had already read 10,000 books, and he had also traveled to many places with a sword, but when he was dedicated to the Tao, his time and energy were on cultivation, and he still went to too few places, and he didn't see much scenery, and even if he traveled, he flew at a high altitude, and he didn't have the feeling he has now.At that time, he flew the highest, overlooking the earth, and all the scenery was a flat painting in his eyes.Now he is no longer so tall, and he needs to look up to see the scenery, which is a little inconvenient, but the painting is three-dimensional and more vivid."
I haven't done my homework for today."
Zhao Layue stood on the edge of the cliff with him for a while, feeling that a lot of time had been wasted, and reminded him loudly.Looking at her, Jing Jiu seemed to see himself back then, and said with a smile: "Go." ”Of course, there is nothing wrong with being single-minded, whether it was him back then or she now.It's just that compared with him back then, he is qualified and has the leisure to see the scenery he once missed.It's just that the acquisition of this qualification, every time he thinks about it, it still makes him feel unhappy and even painful.………… The bridge is already very old, there are cracks everywhere on the road, and there are even holes the size of half a fist in some places, you can see the water surface below, it looks quite scary, but feeling the solidity of the solid ground coming from under your feet, coupled with the hidden sword array breath, Jing Jiu believes that even if it is invaded by wind and rain for thousands of years, this seemingly dilapidated stone bridge will not have a problem, even if all the river demons in the turbid water come to attack collectively, it will not be able to shake this bridge in the slightest.The further you go to the middle of the river, the higher the bridge deck gets, and gradually it is more than 100 feet above the water, and the place where you can see is getting farther and farther.Zhao Layue pointed to a white cliff upstream and said, "That opening was knocked out by the ghost-eyed rohu." ”Jing Jiu knows this monster very well, the ghost rohu is a particularly cruel and terrible monster, it likes to eat people, men, women and children do not choose, as for the rumors that it likes to eat children, it is more of a more evil layer of veil given by folklore.The problem is that not long after the ghost mrigal started to do evil in the muddy water, it alarmed the Qingshan Sect, and it had already been killed by the disciples of the previous generation of Liangwang Peak, he remembered that Lei Poyun, who was still young, had participated in this battle, why did this monster come back to life after many years?
However, there has always been a saying that the big demons in the turbid water swim upside down from the West Sea.As for before the West Sea, those big demons may have come from one of the three major whirlpools.It has always been rumored that the depths of the hanging waterfall on the first line of the sea and the sky can lead directly to the underworld.In this way, it is very likely that these big demons were driven by the underworld, so it is normal for a batch to appear every tens or hundreds of years.Jing Jiu had never been to the underworld, and he didn't know whether these inferences were true or false, thinking that if he had the opportunity in the future, he would still have to go to that continent to find a friend and ask.………… There is a nine-storey building facing south west of the city, with a gray façade that is very inconspicuous, but it is a very famous place.This is the largest auction house in Nanhe Prefecture - Baoshuju.In the early morning, two people with gray cloths covered their heads and faces appeared in front of the gray wall of Baoshuju, which looked a little strange and attracted some attention.In the distance, several sword lights crossed the sky, and the warning could be faintly heard.Jing Jiu said: "It's really inappropriate. ”Not long ago, Zhao Layue directly took him with a sword and broke in from the side of the western city wall, which naturally alarmed the officials and cultivators of Chaonan City.Zhao Layue glanced at him and said, "Do you have to wait until it gets dark?"
We don't have that much time. ”Jing Jiu thought to himself, what should I do?
Seeing that the cultivators in Chaonan City had already chased after him with their swords, did they want to show their identities?
Back then, when he traveled far away with his sword, he rarely stayed in the city, and the few times he went to Chaoge City were received by the emperor, where did he encounter such a thing."
Just go in."
Zhao Layue took him and walked towards Baoshu Curie."
What is this place?""
Auction house, the person in charge is a mortal, but the backstage is very hard, and no one in Chaonan City dares to offend him."
Jing Jiu asked, "His backstage?"
”Zhao Layue said: "It's us." ”Only then did Jing Jiu know that this auction house was actually a peripheral property of the Qingshan Sect.Through the hidden door on the gray wall, the two walked into the Treasure Tree Residence.The steward who received them was about forty years old, with a very thin beard, and very bright eyes, which looked like a mouse, but he did not feel treacherous.The steward looked at the two who covered their heads and faces with gray cloths, and said with a smile: "Can you trouble the two of you to show your faces?"
”Zhao Layue said: "No. ”The steward didn't insist, pointed in the direction of the building and said with a smile: "Those flying swords?
”Zhao Layue said: "Yes, they came to us." ”"Then you should be clear about the rules, Baoshuju can only ensure the safety of the guests in the building, if you leave, we won't care."
The steward looked at her and smiled and said, "Of course, the first thing we need to make sure is whether you are our guest or not. ”It is very simple to become a guest of Treasure Tree House, but it can also be said to be very difficult.The reason why it's easy is because you only need to pay a fortune to get a wooden card for Treasure Tree House.With this wooden plaque, anyone can bid for the treasures in the building, and Baoshu Ju will charge 20% of the fee.As for the difficulty, it is because the amount of wealth is unimaginable for ordinary people, and even some cultivators may not be able to come up with it.With the experience of the inn, Zhao Layue looked directly at Jing Jiu.Jing Jiu thought about it, took out a large handful of gold leaves and put them in front of the steward.This pile of gold leaves is enough to buy a large mansion in Chaonan City.The steward looked at him with a mocking expression.()
