Chapter 180 Xifeng City
Seeing that he couldn’t hide it, Qing Yu had no choice but to say:
“That Ding Huan’s arrogance was too much, and he actually wanted Deacon Qiong’s Ningxing Bamboo back. I was not convinced, so I told Elder Qu that Ding Huan had killed him. A disciple of the Shuanghun Sect, I happened to meet him in Yanyue City."
Guanlai said coldly:
"How did Elder Qu die? Elder Gu and Elder Liu both died. It's very clear that he is suffering from the poison of swallowing his feet.
You, a person who has just cultivated aura, can actually know that Elder Qu was killed by Ding Huan. Ding Huan is just a cook, can he kill Elder Qu? "
Qing Yu quickly said:
"Sister Hu, I am helping you. Regardless of whether Ding Huan killed him or not, Ding Huan should be killed for being disrespectful to Elder Qiong. "
A hint of disappointment surged in Guan Mao's heart:
"Qingyu, do you know how we survived? It was Ding Huan. If it hadn't been for Ding Huan, let alone us, Elder Gu and Deacon Qiong would not have survived. In this case, how can you slander Ding Huan? ”
Qing Yu said disapprovingly:
"Sister Huan, that Ding Huan is just a mortal cook. If he dies, he will die. It doesn't matter."
Guan Nai did not continue to speak. Isn't Qing Yu an ordinary mortal?
If he hadn't brought her to the Taoist world, she would have died of old age in the mortal world.
Before, she only knew that Qing Yu was very clever and would cause trouble.
Now she realizes how wrong she was.
At this moment, Guan Mao was thinking about Qingyu's behavior on the road, and the other time he wanted to abandon her and follow Elder Qu's group.
More importantly, she remembered what Ding Huan said to her before leaving.
‘Miss Guan, you have to be careful about the maid next to you. If someone wants to harm you in the future, it will definitely be this ungrateful woman. ’
……
Ding Huan, Yan Mei and Lao Liu stopped outside an ancient old city.
After studying and refining the formations for so long, Ding Huan himself can arrange the first-level formations if there are formation flags.
So he saw as soon as he arrived here that there was no protective formation in this old city.
Since there is no protective formation, it means that there are no powerful monks living here.
On the top of the wall of this old city, there are a few words written, West Wind City.
There is an ancient yellow road outside the city, which extends to who knows where. Some vehicles come and go, and the running hooves of animals stir up yellow sand all over the sky.
This reminds Ding Huan of a phrase, the ancient road is west wind and the thin horse is thin.
"Brother Huan, I feel like this place is good."
Yan Mei also feels that this place is relatively safe. Although there are many people coming and going, not many people seem to be a threat to them.
Ding Huan did some calculations and found that there was no problem, and the results of the calculations here were a little clearer.
This shows that there are very few powerful monks in this place.
“Yes, this place is where we will live in the future.”
Ding Huan agreed with Yan Mei’s statement and took the lead into Xifeng City. He wants to find his own way to build a foundation. There is no need to go to the spiritual city. As long as it is quiet, it is best that no one can disturb him.
As soon as we entered the city, a dirty and messy feeling came into view.
The streets were full of garbage and feces, and friction between passers-by seemed to be visible at any time. In a short period of time, Ding Huan saw three fights.
Although no one was killed, he always stopped after seeing blood.
What surprised Ding Huan was that no matter how violent the beating was on the street, it ended spontaneously.
Not a single officer or security guard came out. By the way, it seems that there were no city guards when they entered the city.
"It seems a little chaotic." Yan Mei whispered.
Ding Huan smiled: "If it were a peaceful and clean city, would we dare to live in it?"
Yan Mei thought about it, he and Ding Huan were both in hiding now.
"Brother Huan, I have real industry coins, let's buy a house first."
Yan Mei patted his backpack, thinking that it could finally be of some use.
Ding Huan shook his head: "I'm afraid your true karma coins are worthless here. The transactions here should be all broken crystal stones."
His spiritual mind has long scanned it, and the transactions here are all It's broken crystal.
Some of these crystals are broken into pieces only a quarter of the size of a fingernail and can also be traded. The power of broken crystal stones here is the same as the broken silver of a certain dynasty in China.
"Ah..." Yan Mei looked a little disappointed, and he had no intention of giving it a try.
Ding Huan said it couldn’t be used, so it definitely couldn’t be used.
“Is there a house for sale here?” Ding Huan walked to a row of houses.
"Yes, there are all kinds of houses. As long as you are a citizen of the Burning Star Lord Kingdom, you can sell your house." The Yasuo guy was very enthusiastic.
"What if they are not residents of the Burning Star Lord Kingdom?" Ding Huan asked.
The guy spread his hands and said: "The only option is to rent. I also have a house for rent here, and the price is cheap."
"Then, is there any way to become a resident of the Burning Star Lord Kingdom? Yan Mei on the side asked.
"I have an introduction here, a crystal bean." The clerk took out a book and handed it to Ding Huan.
Ding Huan didn’t have a Jingyuan Bean, and he didn’t want to crush his own Crystal. If the Goddess Blooming Crystal is crushed, anyone who is interested can tell at a glance that it has just been crushed, which is not good for him.
Ding Huan has been cautious for a long time and is very cautious in doing things.
He simply scanned it with his spiritual mind and roughly understood what was going on. Xifeng City is one of the cities of the Burning Star Lord Kingdom, and the Burning Star Lord Kingdom is under the protection of the great sect's Great Star Swordsmanship.
It is said to be asylum, but in fact Ding Huan can guess a thing or two from the words inside. This is just a flattering statement.
In fact, many of the Daxing Kendo's cultivation levels are unable to advance, and the older disciples have nowhere to go after leaving the sect.
They used the name of Daxing Kendo and established some lord states in places where spiritual energy was lacking.
Most of the people who survive in these lord countries are ordinary mortals, monks with low cultivation, old monks, monks who cannot be promoted, and those who cannot join the sect...
To put it simply In a word, even the bottom of society in the Taoist world live in these lord countries.
The monks who establish a lordship within the control of the Daxing Sword Dao must be disciples of the Daxing Sword Dao.
If these disciples make some contributions to the sect, the sect will give them some help. This is what they call protection.
In fact, if something really happens, as long as it doesn't involve Daxing Kendo, basically no strong person will come.
If you want to become a resident of the Burning Star Lord, you must contribute to the Burning Star Lord, or be a public official of the Burning Star Lord.
Seeing this, Ding Huan immediately discovered a loophole. Naturally, he did not accept the introduction, but said:
"I have this book, let me ask. , can you automatically become a resident of the Burning Star Lord Kingdom after applying for a job as a city guard?"
"Yes, yes, I saw it too. When we entered the city just now, we saw that the city lord's mansion was recruiting people? We can apply for the job of patrolling the city.”
Yan Mei immediately understood what Ding Huan was thinking.
Ding Huan did indeed see Xifeng City recruiting city guards when he entered the city. Now that he saw the introduction of the Burning Star Lord, he felt that he had caught a loophole.
The guy chuckled and put away the book:
"My friend must have just arrived, right? Do you know that this patrol guard is recruited all year round?"
"Yes. Because the mortality rate is high?" Ding Huan naturally understood what the man meant.
The guy chuckled for a moment:
"High mortality rate? Let me tell you, after becoming a city patrol guard, no one can live for more than a month.
The city lord's mansion not only recruits city patrol guards, but also Recruit a city guard captain, because the current city guard has no captain at all. The few patrolling guards didn't dare to come out at all.
When they came out, they basically cleaned up the corpses on the street. "
After saying this, the man looked at Ding Huan, as if he was here. Xiaofeixiao: "You still dare to apply for the job of city patrol guard?"
Ding Huan finally understood why Xifeng City was in such chaos.
Ganqing is now in a state of anarchy, organization and management.
But if these shops can be opened, there must be tacit forces behind them.
“What about the city lord?” Ding Huan asked doubtfully.
The guy shook his head and said nothing more.
Ding Huan knew that this guy probably didn't dare to continue talking, so after thanking him, he left with Yan Mei and Lao Liu.
"Brother Huan, do we still want to apply for the city patrol?" Yan Mei is a little worried about who is not worried about the mortality rate.
"Go, why not go?" Ding Huan said matter-of-factly.
It is absolutely impossible to survive in a place like this without risk at all. This is Ding Huan's survival experience.
Instead of secretly surviving beside some powerful monks, it is better to live in this low-level place and fight with real swords and guns in a quiet place.
"Brother Huan, after we applied for the job, we were just like those old city patrol guards, hiding at home and not coming out?" Lao Liu couldn't help but say.
Yan Mei glanced at Lao Liu with disdain. This guy has a funny brain.
If they can hide at home and not come out, can such a good job be their turn?
……
The City Lord’s Mansion.
"The City Lord's Mansion is an important place, no idlers." As soon as Ding Huan walked to the door, he was blocked by several guards.
This is the first time Ding Huan has seen the guards in the city since he entered Xifeng City.
Based on Ding Huan’s experience, Xifeng City appears to be anarchic and unorganized, but in fact it should be divided into its own areas of interest. This place is probably the interest area of the City Lord's Mansion.
Ding Huan pointed to the sign on the side: "We are here to apply for city patrol guards."
There is also a sign recruiting city guards here. It seems that Xifeng City is interested in recruiting city guards. The patrolling guards are really urgent.
"You want to apply for the job of city patrol guard?"
The guard seemed to have heard a big joke.
It took a while to wake up and said: "Okay, you can just go directly to the city guard to report."
"No need to enter the city lord's palace to report?" Ding Huan asked.
The guard sarcastically said: "If such a trivial matter requires the City Lord's intervention, then the City Lord will not rest every day."
From the other party's words, Ding Huan heard two things. The first was that the city lord was indeed hiding in the city lord's mansion and did not care about the lives of the residents of Xifeng City at all, which showed that his guess was correct.
The mortality rate of the second patrol of city guards is really high.
Not waiting for Ding Huan to ask again, the guard pointed his hand: "Did you see it? That gray house is the patrolling guard. You go to the patrolling guard to report."
