Legend of Xiaolong

Chapter 153
I deeply agree with what the guard said, right? I found a rule. All the families in the Dou Po mainland have a virtue, that is, money is always the first, the family is the second, and the disciples are the third. Bit, it really makes people feel helpless.

After bidding farewell to the guards, Tianmeng and I walked outside the school, looking at the mountains and ancient trees in the distance, Tianmeng's face was full of excitement, "Haha, after five years, Tianmeng finally came out again, thank you so much Brother Xiao Long, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have had the chance to come out yet."

I felt a chill when I heard it, he looks like he just got out of prison, it can really drive people crazy, if there is no such thing as Mengzhi this time, I will not be able to get out.

The two of us walked while discussing the surrounding scenery, and finally arrived at Raging Flame City before the sun set.

"Wow, this Flame City is really big. I didn't expect that the huge walls are carved with flames. The locals must worship flames the most." Tianmeng was quickly attracted by the magnificence of the Flame City, and he couldn't help sighing like this.

"Hehe, young man, this is your first time coming to Lieyancheng." An old man came to us with a pole on his shoulders. He must be a peddler who just came back from selling things.

I nodded, saluted and said: "Yes, how did this old man see it? Is there any other way to say the name of the city of flames?"

The old man nodded triumphantly, and said: "Young man, you are right. 10 years ago, the entire continent was attacked by demons. It was a dark and turbulent age. Even Lie Yancheng could not be spared, but after The desperate resistance of the people in Raging Flame City finally provoked a great demon god who threatened to slaughter all the residents on the day the city is broken."

"Alas", at this point, a trace of sadness flashed in the old man's eyes, "Three days later, the demon god broke the city wall, and at this critical moment, a man in white appeared, with monstrous flames all over his body, and fought against the demon god for a long time After three days and three nights, the demon god fell, and the man turned into a flame and disappeared into the void, and the residents of the city renamed it Flame City to commemorate him."

Tianmeng and I were secretly stunned. I didn't expect that Lieyan City had such a twists and turns. "Surely that man was made of divine fire?"

The old man nodded and said: "I'm not sure about that, it's been passed down from generation to generation by the older generation in Raging Flame City."

Tianmeng and I stepped into the Flame City slowly. Just now we have inquired about the address of the Wang family from the old man. We will go to the Wang family tomorrow to inquire about the teleportation array. The most important thing now is to find an inn to rest for the night.

The sky was getting dark gradually, and the originally lively street was also deserted. Tianmeng and I found an inn, ate something casually and fell asleep. After a day of running around, our bodies were very tired.

The next day, just as the sun was rising, Tianmengbian and I appeared at the gate of Wang's house, and two guards were glaring at us.

"You two have been watching here for so long, what are you doing? If there is something wrong, we can report it. If there is nothing wrong, don't stand here." One of the guards shouted.

I stepped forward and said with a smile: "Don't get angry, two big brothers. We are here to inquire about the teleportation array. I don't know that the Wang family's teleportation array is not available for rent."

The two guards let out a long breath after hearing our reason for coming, "Of course it's a loan, please wait a moment, I'll go find the butler." A guard walked towards the yard with big strides.

Tianmeng and I looked at each other, and we both saw the surprise in each other's eyes. It seems that things are on track, which is great.

After a while, a benevolent white-haired old man came out, he looked at us, and said kindly: "Do you two guests want to take our Wang family's teleportation formation? I don't know where you want to go, after all, the distance is farther The more amethyst coins you spend."

I strode forward, "Old man, if my friend and I want to go to Baidi City, how much money do we need, just tell us, we will definitely do our best."

A trace of surprise flashed in the old man's eyes, and he lost his voice: "I didn't expect you to go to such a far place. Baidi City is more than ten thousand miles away from here, and the transmission time alone takes half a day. Didn't take over such a big deal."

"Please don't worry, old man, as long as it allows us to reach Baidi City, we are willing to spend any money, so please do it." I cupped my hands at the old man.

"Tsk, this is really difficult, after all, the journey is too far away." The white-browed old man stroked his beard for consideration, and finally said: "You two friends, how about this, the two of you will pay a total of [-] amethyst coins That’s enough, after all, the journey this time is too far away, and my Wang family still needs to restore the teleportation array.”

"What!" Tianmeng cried out in shock, even the two guards beside us opened their mouths in surprise, presumably they had never seen so much money.

"Old man, aren't you trying to trick us? It costs one hundred thousand amethyst coins for one teleportation. What made your teleportation array?" Tianmeng screamed from the side, as if he had been greatly stimulated.

Tianmeng doesn't blame him for being like this, because when we came, we had already made a budget, and 1 amethyst coins were almost enough. Who knew that the price had risen so much, and no one could accept it.

The white-browed old man didn't change his face at all, and still had a smile all over his face, "Hehe, little friend, it's wrong for you to say that, and I didn't force you to do it. How can you say that my Wang family is black-hearted? Don't do things you love and I want." If you get entangled, there is no righteousness in buying and selling."

"Damn, what a shameless old man," I cursed in my heart, but on the surface I didn't show any signs of expression, "This old man must be the head of the Wang family, see if you can get it cheaper, thirty thousand How about the amethyst coin, if you agree, we will bring the money tomorrow, if you still increase the price, we have no choice but to go to another city."

A gleam flashed in the eyes of Patriarch Wang, and then he laughed happily, "Okay, I didn't expect you to be able to see my identity, just listen to you, [-] amethyst coins, not one less, tomorrow I will Let’s activate the teleportation array for you.”

I took out a storage bag from my pocket and put it in Patriarch Wang's hand, "This is 1 amethyst coins, which will be used as our deposit."

After returning to the inn, Tianmeng still didn't understand what was going on, and kept asking me what was going on.

"Brother Xiao Long, what's the matter with you, why the old guy suddenly lowered our price so much, it's really unbelievable."

I smiled slightly, "Hehe, you don't understand that. Didn't I tell him clearly just now that we only have [-] amethyst coins in total, which is enough for him to earn so much, and I He also mentioned that he is the head of the Wang family, if it is spread that he blackmailed us, it will not be good for his reputation."

Tianmeng looked at me with admiration, as if looking at a god.

"Snapped"

I gave him a hard slap on the back of the head, "What are you looking at, labor and management are embarrassed."

"Hey," Tianmeng let out a scream, and looked at me with resentment on his face, "I'm worshiping you, how can you beat up your own believers for no reason, like you, you will be punished by God. punished."

I smiled coldly and didn't bother with him, then got up and blew out the candle, "Don't talk so much, let's hurry up and practice, I heard that when crossing the void, if you are unlucky and encounter a black hole, you will be shaken out , when the time comes, it will really be dead without a whole body.”

Tianmeng was surprised, "No wonder the old guy promised us so happily today, if he did something in the teleportation array, we are not sure, oh my god, it's terrible, we'll go find another one tomorrow Well, it's really worthless to risk your life for this matter."

"Don't worry, do you know how expensive a teleportation array is? The smallest one costs millions of amethyst coins. They are not stupid to make trouble and destroy the teleportation array just to covet our little money."

Hearing what I said, Tianmeng was relieved to stop talking, and after a while there was a grunt, I smiled slightly, and then fell asleep.

Early the next morning, we arrived at the gate of the palace. The two guards didn't know whether they knew us, or they had passed the instructions of Patriarch Wang.

"My lords, please come with us." The guard led us into the Wang's house with a smile on his face.

You can't see anything from the outside, but when you go in, you can see the caves, flowers, insects, birds and animals, wolf forests and ancient trees, and mansions are built in it, which looks special.

Not long after, Patriarch Wang appeared in Tsing Yi, "Hehe, I have been waiting for you two friends for a long time, please come with me."

I also smiled at him, then pulled Tianmeng and followed him to the front, passed five or six such mansions, and finally came to an open space.

This is a teleportation array made of boulders, covering an area of ​​about a kilometer. We came to the very center, and the surrounding aura is full of fragrance, and there are blossoming petals falling around the huge teleportation array. The fragrance is exuded by the flowers.

"Wow, this place is really beautiful. If only I could afford it, I would definitely live here every day." Tianmeng looked at the surrounding environment happily.
