Longevity Story

The lights are dim, the bright chain links each other.

At this point, although the wide street is not as lively as it is during the day, the continuous lights on both sides of the street in front of you and the clamor of hot food vendors and street vendors still give people a feeling of popularity.

There are definitely not many pedestrians on the road compared to the daytime, but because of the order in the daytime, most of the pedestrians on the road now appear drunk, some are smiling, some are gloomy, and some are fierce— - In a nutshell, it's chaos.

It was as if the night had opened a layer of shackles that were usually bound in people's hearts.

However, in the end, it has not reached the point of a dark street with no order. The most basic order is still there, and the most missing is morality and ethics.

Taiyi seems to be accustomed to walking on such a street. He doesn't have the strange feeling of looking at Xing Ke. During this period, he did not forget to buy some snacks from the street to share with Xing Ke.

"How is it? Chentangguan is quite lively at night, isn't it?

This is also thanks to your father Li Jing's ability to clean up the monsters and ghosts around Chentangguan enough, otherwise, this night used to be the world of all kinds of ghosts and ghosts. "

Taiyi used spells without a trace to open the way, shuttled through the crowd without any obstacles, and introduced to Xing Ke while chewing on the skewers.

"I've been here for a year, and I don't even know..." Xing Ke was a little depressed.

He should have guessed it long ago.This world is not the kind of backward primitive civilization that relies on open flames for lighting and cooking. They have magical instruments such as the [Reiki Everbright Lamp] whose brightness, color, and popularity are not inferior to electric lights. Almost everyone can cast lighting.

Even more environmentally friendly than electric lights.

It stands to reason that there should be no curfew.

However, it has been almost a year since he was born in the Li Mansion, and Xing Ke did not realize this, nor did he listen to the discussion among the servants.

"Isn't that of course? The Li family and the Li residence are high officials and nobles anyway. The existence of night markets is indecent, and of course it is impossible to talk about it."

Taiyi said, and pointed to another fork in the street that was different from the main road, so that Xing Ke turned his eyes -

There, the light was covered with a pink tulle, soft and coquettish.

Indistinctly, you can see the slender phantoms running between the small streets and pavilions, and you can smell the fragrant scent of fat powder floating in the air from a distance.

It seems that I can still listen to the little tunes, the sound of the piano and the laughter...

"They may think that the education of their children is not good, and they will definitely not mention this to you."

"They think too much."

Xing Ke shook his head blankly.

983. A scourge for this beautiful and ugly world...

This world, this era, although people's lives are not so messy and hard because of the use and popularization of Reiki.

But the social structure is still deformed.

Slaves, serfs, refugees, beggars, homeless... and so on are still flooded in every corner of the world.

At least the servants and maids of the Li family have higher status than the commoners, their living standards are also high, and they look beautiful, but their status is actually not free.

In case the Li family crashed in the court one day and King Zhou wanted to commit the crime, none of the servants would be able to escape.

Therefore, Li Jing, as the commander-in-chief of Chentangguan, must be well aware of places like [Night Market] that are not only risqué, but also have gray and black transactions.

But he can acquiesce to the existence of this place with such a decent person, which means that there is a reason why it has to exist...

"Sir, does the benefit father of this night market also have a share?" Xing Ke asked while eating the fish soup in the bamboo plate.

"There must be, but Li Jing doesn't care about the spirit stone gold shells of these small businessmen, hawkers and old businessmen. What he really cares about is the [fishing market]." Taiyi thought for a while and replied.

While talking, Xing Ke and the others have walked down the road to the pier on the coast.

The first thing that catches the eye is a scene of fiery noise——

Yisousou's huge fishing boat entered the pier in the dark, and began to unload one after another. In the hoisted fishing net, plump sea fish were dumped directly to the ground.

After that, there were many fish workers with night vision spells obviously turned on in both eyes, sorting, picking, and bleeding, and then throwing them directly into the cold car cabinets next to them.

Finally, the refrigerated trailers, braving the cold air, gathered in a brightly lit market place.

——This popularity is more than three times more lively than on the street just now.

"Chentangguan is located in a natural port, and fishing is the real pillar industry.

And because the fish with high cultivation base, high spiritual energy content, and delicious meat are often like demons, they haunt at night, and the meat quality is also fresh.So the big business of fishing naturally shifted to the night. "Taiyi said, pinching his nose.

The fishy and bloody smell around here is really strong.

"So, the [night market] is just a supporting industry for the [fishing market]?" Xing Ke suddenly realized the reason.

There are more people working at night, which means that there are more people who need to eat, drink and entertainment at night, so the night market is naturally born.

It's not that it can be banned outright just because of some small gray industry transactions.

"The fishing market in Chentangguan provided nearly [-]% of the seafood supply of the Shangtang Dynasty, and merchants from all inland places and even Chaoge City would come here to buy fish.

The so-called "mixed fish and dragons" is here, right? "

After Taiyi finished speaking, he smiled, led Xing Ke to see the fishing market and left directly.

They didn't want to buy fish specially, let alone Taiyi was not a local, he was just knowledgeable, and Xing Ke was closer to the concept of local people than him.

He, a person from Jinguangdong in Qianyuan Mountain, introduced the specialties of Chentangguan to a person from Chentangguan. This is a mess.

Chentangguan is located in a good natural port, but it does not mean that all the coastal areas of Chentangguan are good natural ports.

As long as you walk a little further along the coastline, the terrain will become steep, the sea will be full of rocks, the waves will be very fast, and the most important thing is... there will be all kinds of monsters and ghosts infested.

"I'm just like cultivating an immortal. Is it so troublesome? Could it be that I have to run so far to the beach every night from now on?"

Xing Ke looked at Tai Yi with a wave of the whisk in his hand, and a path opened between the rocky reefs and the vines ahead, and said depressedly.

Just now, he saw a huge sea scorpion head that he didn't know where it was hiding and fled quickly - it was dirty and messy, and there were bugs. He didn't want to stay in such a place for a night at all.

"Your pampered son-in-law doesn't want to take two steps? But even me, I can't think of any rare practice treasures for a while."

As a teacher, Taiyi suddenly felt that there were some problems with Xing Ke's ideological construction:

"No one knows how much disaster you will bring to the surrounding area once you let go of your practice, so it is better to stay away from the gathering place of human beings before you control yourself."

Xing Ke was speechless. He no longer believed in the plots of some Xiuxian protagonists who went on adventures in the wilderness when their cultivation base was not high.

Anyway, he doesn't want to travel far from home until he has the ability to prevent dirt and dust, water and fire from invading, and evil and evil.

Ascetic cultivation or something is purely looking for guilt.

Xing Ke, who has no deep hatred and lofty ideals, is more disdainful of this.

"By the way, sir, is there any evildoer around?" Xing Ke suddenly remembered something and asked.

"Evil? There are many, but they are all small shrimps. A little bit more powerful sense of my existence has long run away." Taiyi said in an air.

"Can you grab one for me?"

"Why are you catching monsters?" Taiyi wondered, and when he reached out to grab it, a palm-sized "little shrimp" that walked upright appeared in his palm tremblingly.

"Is it really a little shrimp?"

Xing Ke just thought that the small shrimp that Taiyi said was a metaphorical rhetorical device, but he didn't expect that it was really shrimp, that is, [krill].

Xing Ke didn't look at it much, and directly stretched out a finger on the tentacles of the shivering shrimp essence. With Taiyi here, he was not afraid of the small shrimp fighting back.

Then, Xing Ke secretly runs the exercises, and an unparalleled attraction spreads from Xing Ke.

With just one breath, I saw the small shrimp from struggling to escape at the beginning to a state of motionless, and then the body began to shrink rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it changed from a palm-sized shrimp essence back to a mung bean-sized one, a real "small". shrimp" form.

"...don't do this to human monks unless you really want to be the enemy of the world."

Tai Yi was a little surprised.

At that moment, the shrimp in his hand lost its 50-year cultivation base.

The aura rooted in every corner of its demon body was sucked dry without the slightest resistance.

In an instant, he fell back from a little goblin to the mortal world.

Terrible ability, what kind of existence am I teaching as a teacher?Taiyi couldn't help shouting questions in his heart.

"I know, I know. I'm not a murderer."

To be honest, Xing Ke has never been the kind of person who likes to kill with his own hands.It is a kind of honor to be able to get rid of those who can be eliminated by his own hands.

Of course, before cleaning up any humanoid trash, Xing Ke has always expelled the other party first.

"I hope you really know."

Taiyi suddenly felt that the fact that he brought Xing Ke out of the Li residence today and broadened his horizons seemed to open some kind of box full of disasters.

But it was too late to take him back.

984. So, the real Taiyi got busy...

No matter how much Xing Ke disliked the many bugs and humid air on the seaside, he had to admit that it was indeed a good place for him to cultivate immortality.

——It is a little bit inaccessible. It is located at the junction of the earth and the sea, and the flow of spiritual energy is active and easy to absorb.

What's more, Xing Ke also discovered that when he practiced the exercises, all the spiritual energy around him was in his hands, and even Taiyi could not resist this kind of mastery.

That is to say, even if some big monsters who have practiced for thousands of years come, they will have to be sucked up to survive.

So a certain guy, he is even more unscrupulous.

After only a few days, the barren and steep coast no longer saw the stream of monsters and monsters that ran amok.

This place has become a forbidden area for monsters.No one who came in was able to return completely.

Then, after this situation lasted for a month, Xing Ke also went through more than a month of cultivation, and the scope of this restricted area expanded almost tenfold.

It was only at this time that Xing Ke gradually felt that his previous "magic power" (full of confidence) feeling came back to a small part.

——This spiritual energy is troublesome, and you have to charge it slowly by yourself.Not compared to magic power, the power is full at birth (for Xing Ke personally).

After he has enough spiritual energy, he feels good. Even when he speaks, his back straightens a lot - especially when facing Nezha.
