[Ran^wen^Bookstore][]On the seventh day, Cheng Hou showed up in Tonglu Town.
We haven’t seen him for a long time. He has gained weight again. Although not as good as in his prime, he has recovered to about 70% to 80% of his condition. There are three layers of flesh on the back of his neck. He is panting before walking, like a slowly moving person. Roshan.
Wei Shiqi invited him to have a few drinks at the restaurant. Cheng Hou was injured, coughing constantly, and even spoke intermittently. According to the condition of his injury, he should have found a place to rest, but the battle in the capital had dragged on for so long. He was so uneasy that he dared not delay any longer, so he hurried to Tonglu Town. Unexpectedly, he was still exhausted and Wei Shiqi had to wait for a long time.
Wei Shiqi did not mention the three-month period, but simply asked Xu Changsheng about his current situation. Seeing that his face was flushed and he was panting, and that his situation was not good, he gave him a bright red tonic. The elixir of heaven is for nothing else but to calm his mind.
Cheng Hou accepted the elixir, knowing that it was a treasure, and felt reassured.
Wei Shiqi asked him to take the Heaven-Building Pill and rest for three days, and then set off with him to Huzigou, as he had other important matters to entrust him with.
After a long day with nothing to do, Wei Shiqi took Qin and Yu for a walk around the town. There were no provocations from thoughtless assholes, nor teasing from the officials without good eyesight. Everything was very peaceful, so peaceful that it made people lose interest.
Casinos, brothels, dance pavilions and singing stations, wine and beauties, the pastimes and pleasures of the world, that’s it. After experiencing the baptism of prosperity, everything in front of you may be novel, but there is no fun at all. , Wei Shiqi's mind is not here, he just relaxes with Qin Zhen and Yu Yao.
Every woman likes to go shopping. Even if she doesn’t buy makeup, jewelry and clothes, it’s still good to look at them. People share this sentiment, and female cultivators are not immune to this custom. Wei Shiqi was not impatient. Seeing them show off their naive looks, his mood gradually became more relaxed.
After spending the last three days and the last free time, the group finally set foot on their way home.
Back in Huzigou, Wei Shiqi handed the golden butterfly to Xiao Bai An, and personally led Cheng Hou up the cliff to overlook the Scarlet Star City.
Under the setting sun, the inside and outside of Chixing City were coated with a layer of golden light, making it look like a fairyland. However, the smoke was curling up, people were coming and going, cats and dogs, chickens and dogs were jumping around, and the noise and vulgarity of the market brought the city back to life. When it comes to the mortal world, the two completely opposite atmospheres of birth and entry into the world merge into one, which does not make people feel abrupt.
Cheng Hou was shocked by what he saw in front of him, as if he was seeing a second Liantao City. Although the scale and structure were not the same, the core of the design was the same.
Chu Tianyou’s hard work has reappeared in the world.
"How is it?" Wei Shiqi noticed something strange about him.
Chenghou was excited, pointing to the Dongming City ruins shrouded in black smoke, and said: "The inner city... this inner city..."
"The inner city is not a thing at the moment. , in another five or seven years, it may be able to reach a certain scale. By then, immortals and mortals will live together, and everything will be on the right track."
"The currency used in the inner city..."
"Of course it's apophyllite - ifOtherwise, how can we attract monks from all over the world to come here? ”
Chenghou suddenly understood that the Taiyi Sect was destroyed, Liantao City was destroyed, and there were quite a few fish-eye stones scattered in the hands of the monks. If they knew that there was a second fairy city in the world, it would be difficult to protect it. No matter how far away you are, you still have to come and have a look.
Wei Shiqi pointed at the dark Dongming City and said: "The red star in the outer city and the east city in the inner city are similar to Liantao City. And Jian, you in Taiyi Sect should know better than me. There is a dianxiao problem in the inner city, and it cannot be built for a while. I plan to build the most basic framework first. After much deliberation, it is best to leave it to you. "
Chenghou's heart skipped a beat and he said cautiously: "Is it Siyan and Zhiku? "
Wei Shiqi glanced at him, "No, it's a street stall. ”
“Street stall? "
"You are an old member of the Taiyi Sect. You probably have a good idea of which loose cultivators and small outside sects there were in Liantao City. Find a way to contact them, go to Dongming City to do business, whether it is bartering, buying and selling with aphoplast, even if you lose money and make a profit, if you can revitalize Dongming City and accumulate popularity, it will be yours credit. ”
Cheng Hou lowered his head and thought for a while, and understood what he meant. Although this matter is complicated, it is not impossible. If it is done well, he can also benefit from it.
"Okay, leave this matter to me. "
"I can rest assured that you will do the work. "After a pause, Wei Shiqi continued, "In this Red Star City, there are many old acquaintances of the Immortal City, Xun Ye, Wei Rongniang, Chen Suzhen, Cao Jinren, be careful, don't let them recognize you and cause trouble. "
Cheng Hou touched his oily cheek and said sadly: "I know. I'm afraid no one will recognize my face..."
"Toothless Hou Jiangcheng, your teeth are flawed after all, so you should find a way to get dentures. "
"Dentures? What is that? "
Wei Shiqi described a few sentences, and for the first time he felt that the language was so pale and weak that he could not explain clearly.
Chenghou blinked his eyes and smiled bitterly: "Uh , I probably...maybe...maybe understand..."
That means I don't understand. Wei Shiqi gave up his efforts and said: "In short, be careful, there are many sophisticated people in this place. It's a good idea to gain weight yourself, but don't be careless. Now that you've changed your appearance, just change it completely. "
Chenghou guessed what he meant, feeling cold in his heart.
"Dongming City is a ghost town. There are two people in it that you should pay attention to. One is the Ghost King, uh, you You probably won't be able to meet him. The other one is Xu Hu, the top thug under the Ghost King. He is blind. It's best to be polite to him. "
"Yes, I wrote it down. "
"Then, I leave it to you. "Wei Shiqi patted him on the shoulder and floated away.
Chenghou watched him disappear into Jietian Ridge and thought to himself: "His ambition is not small, but I like..."< /p>
In the following days, Chenghou was recovering from his injuries while getting familiar with the operation of Scarlet Star City. Since then, Huzigou has gained a special sight. A fat man as big as a mountain of meat is wandering around the city with a belly full of food. The food warehouse is amazing and full of food. I was sweating profusely and couldn’t stop eating.
He spent the whole morning wandering around. After wandering around, he wandered into the inner city. It was a restricted area for mortals. Occasionally, the bold ones would sneak in and play, going in vertically and out horizontally. After a serious illness, most of their lives were lost. Not to mention the money spent, the bones of the body were ruined, and the disease lasted until old age. Everyone said that it was a ghost town, so sinister that no mortal could enter it. But the fat man wandered in, stayed there all afternoon, and wandered out again. Nothing happened. As time went by, everyone worshiped him as an immortal master and did not dare to neglect him.
The prefect Xu Tang knew Cheng Hou’s identity. If he stayed in the capital, he would be the imperial advisor.
Cheng Hou never interfered in the affairs of Scarlet Star City. He kept to himself and kept his word. He even deliberately kept a distance from Chen Suzhen and Cao Jinren. When Chen and Cao noticed this, they did not suspect anything and only thought that he He was from Taiyi Sect, and although he was attached to Wei Shiqi, he still had a grudge against him.
In this way, with Cheng Hou’s strong encouragement, Dongming City got its first visitor.
These monks are all casual cultivators, mostly from the southern barbarian lands. They once lived in Liantao City for a while, but due to lack of money, they went back in despair. This time I heard that there are many monks in the Kunlun Mountains of the Western Regions. After visiting a fairy city, my mind started to get excited, so I followed Cheng Hou to have a look and join in the fun.
After passing through the crowded Scarlet Star City and arriving in front of Dongming City, the group of people were amazed and amazed at the generosity of the city lord.
When asked about the identity of the city lord, Cheng Hou always smiled and said nothing.
