Chapter 24 Embarkation
These two people are a man and a woman, the man is about 20 years old, handsome, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, he is tall, wearing a red robe, embroidered with a big "purple" pattern on his left chest, and behind him is also carrying a red gourd, this gourd is huge, more than half a person tall, and there are several runes engraved on its surface across the surface of the gourd, which is not ordinary at first glance.
The woman is in her teenage years, her temperament is peerless, like a fairy who has fallen into the mortal world, she is wearing a water blue silk gauze skirt, tall and tall, her skin is like clotted fat, a long hair shawl, and there are two aqua blue jade hairpins inserted on it, this woman looks beautiful, a pair of willow eyebrows is a pair of water-like eyes, like the bright moon reflected in the dark pool water, there is a kind of magic that makes people immersed in it, she is in excellent shape, the silk gauze skirt can not hide the bewitching curves like the person in the painting, she walks in slowly, her steps are light, more like the breeze swinging willow branches as soft.
The moment the man and woman stepped through the door, the hustle and bustle in the front hall immediately fell silent, and everyone stared at the woman and couldn't take their eyes off it.
The two of them seemed to be used to it.
After coming in for a long time and seeing that no one had greeted her, the woman frowned slightly.
It was the man, who smiled, walked up to Xiao Er, who was already looking stupid, and reached out to pat Xiao Er's face, "Eh, it's good-looking." ”
Xiao Er nodded subconsciously.
Seeing this, the man smiled and said, "I can tell you, this woman is not easy to mess with, if you provoke her to anger, she will pull out your two eyeballs, be careful." ”
Xiao Er came back to his senses at this time, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "Eh, the two of you are objective, it's a small faux pas." ”
"It's okay, you're okay. The man waved his hand at Xiao Eryi.
"Huh. Xiao Er scratched his head in embarrassment, but his eyes still glanced at the woman from time to time.
"You don't have a good thing, you still look at it. The man slapped Xiao Er's head.
"Eh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the two guest officers want a few rooms. Xiao Er hurriedly accompanies him.
"Come to the two upper rooms. ”
"I'm sorry officer, only one upper room in the shop is still empty, and there are still two ordinary rooms left, you see..."Xiao Er asked tentatively.
"It's okay, it's a normal upper room. After speaking, he turned back to the woman behind him and said, "Senior Sister Long, which guest room do you live in?" ”
The woman surnamed Long ignored the man, took two steps forward, and said coldly, "Where is the upper room, lead the way." ”
Although this voice was cold, it was like an empty valley orchid, beating on the hearts of the people in the hall one by one.
The man didn't care about the stalls.
Xiao Er was stunned again, but quickly eased up, bowed down and smiled, "Oh.. Come with me, officer. ”
After Xiao Er and the woman left, the house quickly became noisy.
"Who is that woman?"
"I haven't seen it, it doesn't seem to be from the city. ”
"Is there such a beautiful woman in the world?"
"It was so beautiful, I was almost suffocating at the time!"
"Look at your little bit of talent, isn't it just a little more beautiful? ”
"You're still talking by wiping your nosebleed off first. ”
Hearing these words, the man was also brainless, and after a while, a chubby-looking old man nodded and walked over.
"Here is the owner of this inn, may I ask what your guests need. ”
The man found an empty seat and sat down, put the gourd he was carrying aside, and said with a hearty smile, "Give me some food that you are good at, I haven't eaten mortal food for a long time." ”
As soon as these words came out, the venue suddenly fell silent again, and no one dared to talk behind their backs anymore.
Although these people had already guessed that the two of them were immortal cultivators, when they really said it from the man's mouth, their hearts were still tight, and then they remembered the gap between mortals and immortal cultivators, and immediately shut up one after another.
The innkeeper also stiffened slightly, and said with a smile: "Immortal Master, look at it, I dare not say that the dishes in this restaurant are the best in the city, and I dare to say that they are in the top ten!"
The man pushed the boss, "Don't blow it, hurry up." ”
"Yes, yes, yes!"
The corners of the man's mouth raised slightly, and his eyes swept across the audience and fell on Ji Liao's body.
When the two of them came in, Ji Liao immediately found that they were immortal cultivators, although he was surprised by the woman's beauty, but he quickly eased up, and when he saw the man looking at him, Ji Liao's eyes flashed slightly, smiled honestly, and nodded to him.
The man also smiled and nodded at Ji Liao.
Ji Liao didn't look at him, there was no turmoil in his heart, it was not uncommon for monks in Tianqian City to be low, he couldn't see that the other party's cultivation was nothing, and he wouldn't worry that the other party would pay attention to him as a little monk.
After a while, Ji Liao got up and walked out of the front hall and returned to his small courtyard.
The room had been cleaned, and although it still looked dilapidated, the broken things had finally been cleaned out.
He sat cross-legged and sighed, "The vision of the Qiankun pen really attracted immortal cultivators, but according to the cultivation of those two, I guess it won't embarrass me." ”
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and the day of the passenger boat had arrived, and Bai Ning had knocked on Ji Liao's door early.
Ji Liao walked out of the inn with him and found that Bai Ning had already prepared the carriage.
He glanced at Bai Ning approvingly, and rewarded him with more than a dozen taels of silver.
The carriage drove slowly in the moat city, and it didn't take long to get out of the city, and after leaving the moat city, I saw that there was no grass or tree outside the city, like a large square.
It was crowded with people, many people with luggage, waiting here the night in advance, and some people came to watch the biennial passenger boat depart.
Ji Liao looked out of the sedan chair and saw a huge group of buildings in the distance of the sky.
As the carriage got closer and closer, Ji Liao finally saw the whole picture of the building, which turned out to be built on a huge wooden boat.
I saw that what appeared in front of him was a huge wooden boat like a mountain, the wooden boat was more than 100 zhang high, and Ji Liao stood under the wooden boat, like an ant.
The wooden boat is blue-black, with dense runes carved into its surface, and many magnificent wooden buildings are built on the top of its deck.
In the place where the wooden boat is more than 30 zhang high, a two-zhang high hole is opened, a high platform happens to be connected with this hole, countless pedestrians line up to enter the hole, and there is a high platform higher than 100 zhang adjacent to it, the high platform leads directly to the deck, and the people on this high platform are much less.
"Master Immortal, this is the wooden boat of the City Lord's Mansion! The lower platform is where ordinary tickets are boarded, the high platform that leads directly to the deck is the place where the high ticket is boarded, and the high cabin is the magnificent building, and you can also follow the window to watch the scenery outside when crossing the moat. Bai Ning said.
Ji Liao nodded: "It's really magnificent." ”
Ji Liao was not in a hurry to get in, but asked Bai Ning to drive the carriage, bypass the wooden boat, and come behind the wooden boat.
A huge crack between heaven and earth suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
I saw that on the flat ground, a dark void suddenly appeared, and the ground disappeared when it reached it, as if it was the end of heaven and earth.
Looking into the distance, I saw that the dark void was endless, and when I looked up, the sky was still covered, but the sunlight could not shine into the dark void on the ground, as if the dark void could swallow the light.
"Immortal Master, this is two thousand miles of heavenly moats!" Bai Ning said.
Ji Liao stepped away, wanting to get closer, but was suddenly stopped by Bai Ning.
"Immortal Master, be careful. Although this moat looks like a crack in the ground, it is extremely weird, there is no ray of sunlight in the moat, it is an endless void, even if you only take a step at this edge, you will not be able to find your way out!" Bai Ning said anxiously.
"Oh, so weird?" Ji Liao raised his eyebrows and took a step back.
Bai Ning breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly, "Although the little one has never been in, I often hear people who take the passenger boat mention that this crack seems to be chaotic and unopened, and there is a strange wind raging in it, otherwise you see that the passenger boat of the City Lord's Mansion is so huge, why should it be driven for a month." ”
"I see. ”
Ji Liao watched in place for a while, and then reappeared at the place where he got on the boat.
They have a higher cabin, which is different from those that are normally boarded, but has a dedicated passageway.
Ji Liao handed the ticket to the man.
The person guarding the passage took the ticket, pasted the ticket on the array plate in his hand, and the array immediately emitted a shock of black light, after seeing the black light, the caretaker politely let Ji Liao go up, and at the same time waved to the woman wearing a maid serving beside him, and the woman immediately followed Ji Liao and followed Ji Liao on the passenger boat.
Looking at the ordinary passage, at this time, the crowd was surging, and a long queue had been discharged, and it was impossible to see the end at a glance.
The people guarding the ordinary passage were not as polite as the high-class cabins, and urged impatiently.
