The book never ends
Chapter 57 White Emperor City
The sky suddenly began to rain, and water droplets the size of beans poured down.Strangely, there is only one place in the world covered by dark clouds, and the sun reveals most of its face from the side, shining warmly on other places.
In the hazy water mist, there are many mountains inside the huge city gate, reaching straight into the sky, half of which are hidden in the thick clouds, and the apex cannot be seen.The towering pavilions above are looming in the misty mist, like a palace in the sky.The sound of silk and bamboo coming from the air seems to have made the whole city have an illusory artistic conception.Only the occasional yelling and the figures of various figures in front of the city gate showed that this was still the original human world.
The Liuyun boat stopped at a height of tens of feet away from the city, and the warm sunlight was shining on it. Jiang Ce stretched out his hand, just enough to catch the falling water droplets.Drops of water fell on the palm of the hand and smashed into pieces, turning into finer water droplets. Those water droplets were blown away by the energy covering the body, and then hit other raindrops. The water droplets are like glass, shining crystal clear in the sunlight.
Jiang Ce looked at the three words "Baidi City" above the huge city gate through the hazy rain curtain. He was captured by this magnificent scene for a while, and was speechless for a long time.
Looking at this scene with a slight frown, Ji Wudu spit out two words: "Trouble."
The two have been together for a long time, and Jiang Ce can also guess some of Ji Wudu's emotions from the usual small details. At this time, his mood seems to be much worse than before. Jiang Ce looked back at him and said suspiciously: "Master, What's wrong?
Ji Wuduan shook his head, and suddenly put his arms around Jiang Ce's waist, but in the blink of an eye, the two of them landed a few hundred meters away from the city gate.
Jiang Ce stepped on the ground again after a month, always feeling a little uncomfortable.I am used to looking at the scenery from the sky, but now I look at the Baidi City, it is a different scene. Looking at the whole city, I can only see the huge ancient city gate, and the mountain peaks behind have been completely blocked.
On the main road in front of the city gate, a group of people dressed in different clothes were sitting under a tea shed by the side of the road. Jiang Ce glanced through the system, most of them were low-level monks, and some were civilians with no cultivation at all. common people.Those people, holding bowls of tea, stared straight at the direction of the gate with sad faces.
Ji Wuduan didn't enter Baidi City in Liuyunzhou, but landed on the ground. Jiang Ce was puzzled, but judging by his current appearance, he thought it would be better not to ask.
He stood with Ji Wuduan outside the city for a while, and occasionally he could see some people who came with flying swords or other magic weapons, and fell back to the ground just like them.
And those people did not enter the city, they all gathered in the tea sheds on the side of the road.Talking about something in detail.
"Why is it at this time?"
"Yes, yes, if the rain continues, I don't know when the city gate will be opened. I'm still rushing home."
"It depends on when the city lord will feel better."
"What is it this time?"
"The rain just started to fall just now, and there is no news yet."
……
Jiang Ce listened carefully, feeling even more puzzled. Could it be that Ji Wudu was in a bad mood because of this.Curiosity drove Jiang Ce to ask, "Master, what happened?"
Ji Wuduan frowned and pondered for a while, then replied: "It's nothing, the city lord is just unhappy, we can just wait outside the city for a while."
Jiang Ce was taken aback when he heard that, "How does Master know?"
Ji Wuduan glanced at him, then walked into the nearest tea shed.The dozen or so people under the tea shed looked at Ji Wuduan and the two of them, and suddenly yelled loudly, and several monk-like youths strode up to meet them, saluted respectfully, and said excitedly: " Greetings, Senior Ji!"
Ji Wuduan nodded to them, then found a seat at random, and had no intention of talking after that.This is not the first time Jiang Ce has seen such a scene. Every time he has a feeling that he doesn't understand Ji Wudu at all. In the hundreds of years before the two met, what exactly did his master go through? So that no matter where he went, someone knew him, and his attitude was so respectful.
"Come and sit." Ji Wuduan's cold voice sounded, and Jiang Ce realized that his master had already found a place to sit, and there was no one in the tea shed except the tea seller.There is always a feeling... the whole tea shed has been contracted by the master...
Jiang Ce let out a groan, and sat down beside Ji Wuduan uncomfortably against the excited or curious gazes of the people around him.The tea seller carefully poured him a cup of clear tea, and said in a trembling voice, "Prince Immortal, please use it, please use it."
Seeing that Jiang Ce was seated, Ji Wuduan turned to the tea seller and said coldly, "Inform your city lord that Ji Wuduan is coming to visit."
The tea seller nodded quickly, then quickly took out a jade tablet from his pocket, and tapped it with his fingers a few times, as if he had written a few words.
Jiang Ce took a few curious glances. This tea seller is actually a monk, but his level is only level 10, which is equivalent to the first level of Qi Refining.And Master's attitude towards him seems to be very clear about his identity.
"Master, do you know the city lord here?" Although Ji Wuduan did not answer after asking several times, Jiang Ce still did not give up.
Ji Wuduan just sat upright without touching the tea in front of him, but this time he answered Jiang Ce mercifully, "A little friendship."
As soon as Jiang Ce heard that there was something going on, he immediately asked, "What does it mean that the city lord is not happy?"
A courteous voice suddenly sounded from the side: "Isn't it the first time for Xiao Xianchang to come to Baidi City?"
This time it was the owner of the tea shed who answered him because he was often asked about things. The owner of the tea shed has developed a habit of answering every question. Hearing Jiang Ce's question, he couldn't help but pick up the topic .As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to suddenly realize that there was a big man sitting next to him, so he quickly took a peek at Ji Wuduan, and he was relieved when he saw that he didn't respond.
Jiang Ce's attention was immediately attracted by his words. This kind of beginning is often the beginning of a story, but he still cared about Ji Wudu next to him. Seeing that he didn't express anything, he continued: "Yes, I First time here."
"Our Baidi City has a great spectacle called 'Sunrise in the East and Rain in the West'. Just now, Xiao Xianchang, you also saw that the sun was shining brightly outside Baidi City, but inside Baidi City, it was cloudy and rainy."
Jiang Ce nodded to express his understanding.The meaning couldn't be more obvious. It's a natural phenomenon. It's not that he hasn't seen it in the original world, but he hasn't seen such a spectacular one.
Seeing Jiang Ce's very interested appearance, the owner of the tea shed spoke out all he knew.
"Little Immortal doesn't know that this strange scene is not controlled by God's will, but by the Lord of Baidi City. As long as he is unhappy, it will start to rain in Baidi City. Light rain, usually there will be a few days in a month, if you are very unhappy, it will rain heavily, such a situation is rarely encountered once a year. This time, the two elders came at the wrong time, just in time The mayor is very unhappy."
Jiang Ce clicked his tongue secretly when he heard this, could it be that the city lord is the Dragon King, who can actually bring down rain.But this is not the crux of the problem, but why they came at the wrong time.
Just as he was about to ask a question, the owner of the tea shed continued: "It's fine if the city lord is just generally unhappy, it means that he is also throwing a temper tantrum, and everything in the city is operating normally. But if he is very unhappy, it means that he is really angry. During this period of time, the city gate will be closed, so that people in the city cannot come out, and people outside the city cannot enter."
Jiang Ce finally understood why there were so many people staying outside, but none of them could get in. It turned out that it all depends on the mood of the city lord. "When will the city lord be happy?"
The owner of the tea shed shook his head and sighed, "I don't know, sometimes it's a day, and sometimes it's a whole year."
When Jiang Ce heard this, he groaned, remembering what Master said to the owner of the tea shed just now, he was not worried about whether he could enter the city.Ji Wuduan would never do meaningless things, not to mention they were in a hurry to go to Qiu Lingmen to investigate the life and death of the two masters.
Now he is more curious about what kind of person City Lord Baidi is, and how capable he is to be able to control a huge city with his own mood.
He recalled the plot in the original book in his mind, and he couldn't remember the content about Baidi City after a long time. He only vaguely remembered that there was a girl in the protagonist's harem who was from Baidi City.
Ji Wuduan was sitting beside her, with no emotion visible on her expressionless face.Jiang Ce couldn't help but think, could people who can be friends with Master also have the same style as him?The situation when the two met suddenly appeared in his mind, Jiang Ce: "..."
"What?" Ji Wudu slightly raised his eyes to look at him.
Jiang Ceqian smiled and shook his head, "It's okay, master, when can we go in?"
Ji Wuyuan replied: "Soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a commotion in the surrounding crowd, "Senior Ji, Yinger is here to pick you up." A beautiful voice like the sounds of nature came from the direction of Baidi City, and that voice seemed to be right next to everyone's ears It sounded very clear.
Jiang Ce followed the sound and saw that the gate of Baidi City had opened at some point, and a pale yellow figure stood at the gate.The man took two steps forward, and saw a yellow light flash, a young woman with a beautiful appearance and a gentle temperament was already standing in front of the two of them.
The young woman bowed to Ji Wuduanying, and said respectfully: "The city lord is anxious to see you, please come with me."
Ji Wuduan looked at the person coming, stood up slowly, frowned slightly and said, "Why is it you?"
The woman covered her mouth with her sleeve and smiled softly, "Why can't it be me, the people in the city who are worthy to come to pick you up are busy appeasing the city lord."
Ji Wuduan hummed, noncommittal to her words.He didn't care about these anymore, and waved to her, "Let's go."
The woman smiled unabated, bowed to him again, then turned and retreated to the side. From the beginning to the end, she didn't even look at Jiang Ce who was beside Ji Wuduan.
Ji Wudu hesitated for a moment, then suddenly grabbed Jiang Ce's wrist, and pulled him straight to the direction of the city gate. Wherever he passed, the people around him automatically gave way.
Jiang Ce was staggered by his sudden movement, he couldn't figure out his intention and could only follow quickly, but he couldn't help but turned his head and glanced at the woman walking not far behind him.
When he heard the word "Yinger", the plot master lurking in his mind finally emerged.It turns out that this is the No.1 girl in the protagonist's harem.
He can't remember the description of his appearance, but he only remembers that this person's personality is not so good, no matter what kind of girl the protagonist hooks up with outside, she will not be jealous, and she is also considerate to solve the protagonist's problems, using It's not enough to describe it as a caring little padded jacket. Until Jiang Ce crossed over, the protagonist of the original book still only admitted that this girl was his daughter-in-law, but she didn't appear many times.
Although the three of them were walking, their speed was not slow at all. A monk who had reached a certain level of cultivation would always shrink the ground to an inch.In a few breaths, the three of them had already entered Baidi City, and the city gate was closed again.
After entering Baidi City, the speed of the three of them suddenly dropped.For a moment, Jiang Ce felt that he couldn't feel the spiritual power in his body at all, as if he was suddenly suppressed.However, this feeling quickly disappeared, followed by a feeling of being spied on. Somewhere, a pair of eyes looked at him.
In the hazy water mist, there are many mountains inside the huge city gate, reaching straight into the sky, half of which are hidden in the thick clouds, and the apex cannot be seen.The towering pavilions above are looming in the misty mist, like a palace in the sky.The sound of silk and bamboo coming from the air seems to have made the whole city have an illusory artistic conception.Only the occasional yelling and the figures of various figures in front of the city gate showed that this was still the original human world.

"Come and sit." Ji Wuduan's cold voice sounded, and Jiang Ce realized that his master had already found a place to sit, and there was no one in the tea shed except the tea seller.There is always a feeling... the whole tea shed has been contracted by the master...
Jiang Ce let out a groan, and sat down beside Ji Wuduan uncomfortably against the excited or curious gazes of the people around him.The tea seller carefully poured him a cup of clear tea, and said in a trembling voice, "Prince Immortal, please use it, please use it."
