Three thousand spirit stones is indeed a huge sum of money for ordinary monks, but in the Northern Wilderness, it is only enough for one city entrance fee - after the discount is paid in half.The thin man guarding the city gate saw that he was unwilling to give the money, so he couldn't help urging: "It's just three thousand spirit stones, if you can't afford it, get another one!"

Seeing that he is wearing expensive fabrics, why can't he even afford such a few spirit stones!

The guard at the city gate raised his eyelids and gave him a sideways glance.

Xie Guici paused, and took off the phoenix bone ring on his little finger: "This is for you."

He's here to find someone, not to make trouble.Xie Guici silently reminded himself in his heart.Can't break through.

And he also had to take care of his friendship with the Lord of Tianjing City.

It is not the first time for the thin man guarding the gate outside Tianjing City to use objects to pay for falling into the city. He has also seen many rare things, and his eyesight is not bad. Baby, took it with both hands, and looked at it several times: "It turned out to be a phoenix bone... Let alone three thousand spirit stones, even thirty thousand spirit stones are worth it."

Obsession and greed appeared in his eyes, and Phoenix bones were rare even in the entire Northern Wilderness.Furthermore, because the ancient phoenix has been extinct, the remains are all in the depths of an extremely dangerous secret realm. Only the top monks in the fairy gate can barely step on it, and the top monks will not easily replace the phoenix bones with spirit stones.

The world's first-class rarity.

But given such a precious treasure, the young man in front of him didn't feel any distress. Is it because of his rich family background, or... The man guarding the city gate didn't have time to think about it, when he heard the sound of a sixteen-stringed harp plucked under the moon: " Since it is worth [-] spirit stones, then you can find me another [-] spirit stones."

The voice was calm, and there was an unconvincing sense of course.

City guard: "..."

He narrowed his cloudy eyes, showing his neat white teeth: "Your Excellency, you are joking, there is no such rule in Tianjing City."

There was silence for a while.

Just when the city guards thought he was backing down, the voice sounded again unhurriedly: "Really? But I remember that Shen Huaizhi is the most well-behaved person."

Hearing him call out the name "Shen Huaizhi", the face of the city guard changed suddenly.In Beihuang, there are absolutely not many people who dare to call the owner of Tianjing City by his name, and even most of the unknown people only know that the owner of Tianjing City is Shen, but not his real name.

The city guards also inadvertently heard the new lady shout, so they firmly remembered it.

Moreover, Shen Huaizhi is indeed a person who pays great attention to "rules". Of course, he only talks about the rules he made, and if others break his rules, he will die without a place to die.

For example, if you enter the city, you have to pay [-] spirit stones, and it doesn't matter if you have one more or less.The city lord is overjoyed when he gets married, and the spirit stones that enter the city are discounted in half, and it is absolutely impossible to have one more or one less of the three thousand spirit stones.

If there is more or less, it may cost you your life.

The phoenix bone is worth [-] spirit stones, only [-] are needed to enter the city, and the remaining [-] can't be charged more.The city guard moved his mouth. He thought that the person in front of him was new and didn't understand the rules, so he wanted to pay such a large sum of money. He didn't expect that he knew the city owner!

"What your Excellency said is that I misremembered it." He said, holding the phoenix bone ring in both hands and handing it back, "I'm sorry, I will give you the three thousand spirit stones as it is for you apologize."

Although the amount of spiritual stones passed by the city guards every day is huge, every piece of paper and thread in Tianjing City is worth thousands of gold, and it costs a lot. What he can save is only a few thousand spiritual stones. Lost half of his fortune.

Xie Guici didn't answer: "No need. You keep the ring, just give me [-] spirit stones." After all, he needs other expenses when he enters the city. I don't know how much to spend.

As for the ring, it's time to leave Beihuang and go to Shen Huaizhi to redeem it.

The guards did not dare to say much, so they gave him [-] spirit stones in trepidation, and added another [-] to him, making it an integer of [-].Xie Guici did not refuse this time either, if he did, it would make people feel uneasy.

Besides, with three thousand spirit stones, it is enough to buy a lesson.

As soon as I entered the city, I felt that the inside of Tianjing City was completely different from the outside. The floor was paved with neat stone bricks, and the buildings were neat and clear. The white walls and green tiles seemed to look like the style of the Central Plains, but the people on the streets were not as good as those in the Central Plains city. many.

It's normal, not everyone can afford three thousand spirit stones.Xie Guici thought for a while, after all, on Duyue Mountain, the direct disciples of the sect leader can only get ten spirit stones every month.

It's just that when he came back, the city didn't look like this. He took a closer look at the buildings. They were thick and thin, not the exquisite and exquisite style of the Central Plains, but somewhat similar to the style of Xizhou. .

There are lights and festoons on both sides of the street, and red silk ribbons are spread under the eaves.It is rare to see such a bright color in the Northern Wilderness. Due to the lack of resources, silk or red dyes have to be transported from the Central Plains, and the monsters and beasts that may appear along the way, as well as the extremely cold and severe climate, may be escorted by masters. None of the team survived, and they were buried under the wind and sand together with the brocades and porcelains from the Central Plains.

The red color of Beihuang comes more from the scalding blood sprayed from the throat cut by the blade.

The red color of Central Plains silk is too soft and light.

Xie Guici looked at it for a while, and then remembered the "City Lord's big wedding" that the city guards had said. With such a grand arrangement, Shen Huaizhi should be very concerned about this lady.This should be a happy event, if it wasn't for the wrong timing, Xie Guici would definitely come to ask for a cup of wedding wine.

But right now, he didn't care to find out what kind of peerless beauty Shen Huaizhi's new wife was, staring at the golden bell in his hand that didn't move, he frowned slowly and solemnly.

Mu Heng's aura suddenly disappeared after he entered Tianjing City.

His heart sank, and then he looked up at the highest and most magnificent building in the city.That was the City Lord's Mansion of Tianjing City, and it was also where Shen Huaizhi was. If he was still Jiang Dengnian, he could naturally make a request, asking Shen Huaizhi to help find someone.

But he happened to be Xie Guici now.The city lord of Tianjing City would not accept the status of "He Yuejun's survivor".

………………

Tianjing City City Lord's Mansion.

Contrary to what most people think, the lord of Tianjing City has a handsome appearance, but a shallow scar on the brow bone destroys this temperament, which is no different from that of a child from a family in the Central Plains, showing the true nature of the Northern Wilderness beast. Fierce and cold.

He was looking at Xue Zhaowei, with an inexplicable smile on his lips: "I don't know what is the purpose of Mr. Cangxue's visit to the humble house?"

"Jiang Deng Nian." Cangxue Jun's tone was as cold as his, and the white clothes were still unstained in the wind and sand in the northern wilderness.

The smile on Shen Huaizhi's lips deepened: "Mr. Cangxue wants to ask Mr. Heyue. I have heard that Your Excellency and Mr. Heyue had a lot of quarrels. I don't know what kind of deep hatred has caused the dignified Mr. Cangxue to die. Afterwards, they will have to chase thousands of miles to the Northern Wilderness..." Come on.

The syllable of the last word was rolled on the tip of the tongue, before it could be uttered, the sword light flashed past, and the sword wind brought by it was cold and fierce, caressing Shen Huaizhi's eyes, and sticking to his fragile throat in the next moment.

The smile on Shen Huaizhi's face stopped.

"What is the meaning of Mr. Cangxue?"

Xue Zhaowei asked word by word: "Where did Jiang Dengnian go to Beihuang before his death?"

Weighing the possibility of himself escaping from Cang Xuejun's sword, Shen Huaizhi said: "It's good that He Yuejun had a lot of friends during his lifetime, but I only had casual acquaintances with him, how could he tell me the itinerary?" Tell me the whole story? But he has a good relationship with that big monster in the extreme northern snowfield, if Mr. Zangxue wants to know, you might as well ask that big monster.”

Xue Zhaowei stared at him coldly, the way he looked at him was no different from the way he looked at the surrounding scenery.

"Where is the extreme northern snowfield?"

"Go straight to the east. There are two rivers in Beihuang, the Xi River and the Moon River. Go straight along the river, and at the confluence of the rivers is the residence of the big demon. Where is the specific location-I have not been there , naturally I don’t know.” Shen Huaizhi said, “I don’t even know that Mr. Cangxue killed me.”

The door was knocked.

Xue Zhaowei retracted the sword.

"Come in." Shen Huaizhi ordered calmly.

A muscular man wrapped in black fur came in and reported: "A total of [-] spirit stones and a ring made of phoenix bones were collected before noon today."

Shen Huaizhi became a little interested: "Phoenix bone? Present it for a look."

Xue Zhaowei's eyes also moved.

The subordinates stepped forward respectfully and wanted to present the ring, but before Shen Huaizhi could see it clearly, the ring suddenly flew into Xue Zhaowei's hands as soon as his spiritual power appeared.

Shen Huaizhi raised his eyebrows: "Mr. Cangxue is also interested in this ring? How about giving it to Mr. Cangxue as a gift?"

Anyway, there are eight or nine out of ten chances that if he doesn't come back, it's better to give Xue Zhaowei a favor.

Xue Zhao glanced at him slightly, nodded: "Thank you." After saying that, his figure disappeared.

The subordinate hesitated to speak: "The city lord..."

Shen Huaizhi raised his hand to signal him to keep quiet, and slowly stretched out his hand to press the neck touched by Xue Zhaowei's sword, there was a thin line of blood - it was cut by Xue Zhaowei's sword energy.

He is already a rare master in the realm of the great master, invulnerable to swords and guns, and has a slight opponent in the world.But today, in front of this Mr. Cangxue, he feels... that he has no power to fight back.

"As expected of No. 1 in the world." Shen Huaizhi asked the subordinates around him, "Heyue Jun not only has friends all over the world, but even the people he provokes are not to be underestimated, don't you think so?"

"But no matter how powerful Zang Xuejun is, he may not be able to defeat that great monster on the snow field." The subordinate said, "That one is a great monster in ancient times, and he is only one step away from becoming an immortal."

"That might be." Shen Huaizhi got up, "After all, even I can't detect the depth of this Cang Xuejun. Jiang Dengnian really caused a lot of trouble." But it seems that there is a relationship between Cang Xuejun and Jiang Dengnian. The relationship between them may not be as rumored in the world, at least in his opinion, Mr. Cangxue cares about Jiang Dengnian very much.

It's like the reverse scale of a dragon, it's furious when you touch it.

"How is Madam?" Shen Huaizhi asked again.

Subordinate: "Madam has been urging our people to go to the Central Plains to formally propose a marriage. City Lord, when are we going to leave?"

"After a while. Wait until he is willing to stay here before going to the Central Plains." Thinking of the other party's appearance that he thought he had concealed his thoughts well, the smile on Shen Huaizhi's lips became a little more real, "He urged you to go as soon as possible. Central Plains, it is only expected that the aristocratic families in Central Plains will not agree to this marriage, and they will come to rescue him then."

Although he is not afraid of those aristocratic families in the Central Plains, if he accidentally makes people run away, the gain will not be worth the loss.

"But didn't the city lord promise Madam that he would propose marriage first? How should Madam respond?"

"The climate in the Northern Wilderness is harsh, the Central Plains is unfamiliar, and the distance is far away. It is not uncommon to be delayed for a year or so on the road." Shen Huaizhi said lightly.

The corner of the subordinate's mouth twitched, thinking of the disgraceful means that his city lord used to get people into his hands, compared to this, this matter is nothing.

The subordinates also reported some daily affairs in the city, and Shen Huaizhi made the decision. Not long after, a female cultivator in light pink clothes hurried in. She was the person sent by the city lord to serve beside his wife.

"City Lord, Madam is gone!"

On the other side, Xie Guici and Mu Henglai, who was wearing a water-red long dress with flower tints on his brows and was squatting on the edge of the window, looked at each other.

The next moment, Xie Guici closed the window heavily with no expression on his face.

The author has something to say:

Now you probably know the life-and-death crisis that Mu San, this idiot, encountered. x
