Jade bone ice muscle

The sound of gongs and drums in the Qiangu City lasted until the day when the big banquet was full of the city, and the festive level reached its peak. Although the crane did not return, he did not forget that it was the banquet he mentioned in front of the heads of the immortals. But he was delayed for a long time because of other things, and it took him two months to return to the city before he remembered this incident when Kong Zhi reminded him.

As soon as the invitation to entertain the world was sent out, Xiao Qi was the first to respond, and boarded the ship excitedly.

Deliberately avoiding the land route and taking the water route, nothing more than hearing that the newly built port in Beringchuan is magnificent. With the construction of a ten-mile painting boat, the business of Xiaoyue Building can be improved to a higher level.

"In the past two months, Beringchuan has turned upside down. I have to say that the new city lord has really done something." The boy who followed Xiao Qi was fascinated by the bustling and busy pier as soon as he got off the boat. He couldn't help but admire, "Qianhe City is still recovering, but Qiangu City is gaining momentum, and it seems that it will come from behind. Sir, can we really build a boat here?"

"That's natural. Based on my friendship with the Tai... the city lord, he will definitely entrust me with such a beautiful job." Xiao Qi covered his hands in front of his eyes and looked out, "Let's go, you can walk around the city earlier. Take a look, Xiaoyue Tower's sub-rudder in Qiangu City must choose the best location."

After getting off the boat, several people got into the carriage one after another, and followed the flow of people all the way to Qiangu City.

Sitting in the car, Xiao Qi raised the curtains, and had a panoramic view of this treacherous city.

In the city that has been withered for thousands of years, shops and vendors have opened up in a blink of an eye. Although most of the "people" are like puppets, with unspeakable weirdness in their eyes, they sell real good things. The servant didn't quite believe it, so he got out of the car and bought some pancakes. After he took a bite, it was delicious.

"Isn't that right, what people eat is ghosts?" Xiao Qi laughed, "It's been said that the people in this city are not the same as our bodies, but everything else is the same. You see, the money they use for business is also the same. It’s changed to the jade coins that are currently in circulation, and it’s no different from the outside.”

Not only banks and ticket offices, but also many escort agencies, post stations, and inns have been built. Because of the big banquet this month, almost every house is full.

Xiao Yi has been looking outside in silence, and then he asked aloud: "Most of them are merchants of Qianhefang, and they dare to enter at this time, is it the landlord's intention?"

"Ah Yi, don't underestimate the role of money." Xiao Qi spread out his fan and fanned the fragrance, "Besides, the war has just ended, and the first job is to start a new business and start a business. There are not many Qianhefang now. "People", if you want to live a good life, standing with Qiangucheng is the best plan. "

Most of the banks and bank accounts belong to Qianhefang, and they have a neutral attitude. They are also the first wave of businessmen who are willing to come to Qiangu to do business. The cranes are not rich and powerful, and the family property accumulated over the years can be used for a city to run for decades. More than enough, he offered a very attractive condition, and naturally he could attract many people.

In addition, the people of Qiangu City are very hardworking and skillful, and the things they make cover all aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation. In the past two months, they have already received many orders from Qianhe City.

Although the world of comprehension is still very taboo towards Qiangu City, but as long as the things are good, they will still be in high demand after entering the black market.

As for the "people" mentioned by Xiao Qi, of course, in addition to ordinary mortals, there are also many down-and-out monster races.Since the Broken Moon Islands incident, the area other than Qianhefang has been classified as the territory of the monster race—it is said to be a territory, but it is actually an open prison, and their life is quite difficult.

Therefore, Crane Bugui issued a relocation order, whether it is a human or a demon, as long as they are willing to become citizens of Qiangu City, live and work here in peace and contentment, and work hard, Qiangu City will protect them with a place to live, and new households who move will receive There are a lot of subsidies and subsidies. Those who do business have houses, and those who cultivate land have fertile land.

The decree of the city lord was promulgated, and the Xiaoyue Tower advertised it, which really attracted many monsters and poor people who were living in hardships. It is more convenient to transport goods and residents to come and go, and more and more people come to Qiangu City.

The boy said with a "tsk": "I've heard what the host said, but in this way, the comprehension world will become more hostile to Qiangu City. I heard that a few days ago, the head of a sect was severely beaten by the city lord." They repaired it hard, and they sued Wuliangzhai.” I don’t know what punishment the group of bald donkeys will do, but if Yu Wuque is cured, now they dare to treat the crane’s head, is it going to turn the world upside down? ?

"It's useless to file a complaint. No one else has the slightest chance to interfere with who the city is protecting." Xiao Qi said. He refuses to take half a step out of the city gate, and he doesn't know what the situation is now."

Xiao Yi touched the wine pot on his waist: "I heard that Immortal Crane brought Master Yu back."

"Well, I will take you to pay homage to him." The carriage stopped at the inn, Xiao Qi opened the door curtain and said, "I have some clues about what the city lord entrusted to me, let's clean up as soon as possible, and go to see the city lord earlier."

Later, Kongzhi went to the inn to greet him in person. Seeing the people who came in and out of the lobby, all of them had wonderful expressions on their faces, eccentric, suffocating, and couldn't help but find it funny. No matter what situation Xiao Qi was in, he was Either position is a social butterfly who turns around all the time, and a few words can make the contradiction invisible. Sorachi waited for him to treat all the characters politely before walking in.

Kongzhi cupped his hands: "I've seen Mr. Xiao."

"I've been waiting for you." Xiao Qi's eyes lit up, "Is the city lord free?"

"The city lord sent me to pick up Lord Xiao into the palace." Kongzhi nodded at Xiao Yi, "Please, both of you."

The puppet led the carriage, "Tuk Tuk Tuk" walked towards a wider avenue, Xiao Qi took the opportunity to inquire with Kong Zhi: "The Qiangu City is well organized, thanks to you and Ruisu, right?"

"Wynn helped me a lot." Kong knew, "Ruisu has a mission and rarely returns to the city."

"No wonder, running a city is a piece of work. Thinking about it..." Xiao Qi sighed, "I'm afraid your master doesn't have the heart to manage it."

Soraka nodded silently, showing an expression that was hard to explain.

Xiao Qi observed his words: "What's wrong? Is he not well?"

"I can't tell." Kong knew, "I spent eight out of ten days nestling in the main hall, talking to Yu, and I didn't understand what he was talking about. No one else could enter the hall except me. If people saw it, they would definitely think Master is crazy."

Xiao Qi frowned: "Speak carefully."

Since Crane Bugui returned to Qiangu City, he has never left the main hall all day long, with the jade puppet by his side, either talking to himself, or half paralyzed beside the jade coffin, the brilliance of spells flickering non-stop, surrounded by magic circles, summoning souls , psychic, repairing the primordial spirit and the body, and even taboo techniques - communicating with the underworld, negotiating with the judge, he tried them all.

Xiao Qi said: "Is there any gain?"

Kongzhi shook his head: "That jade coffin is like a pool of stagnant water, the sound of throwing stones into it is inaudible."

"The heart demon root of Wuliangzhai is to make a contract with the immortal clan with an oath, and it will definitely be fulfilled, and it cannot be changed by manpower." Xiao Yi said lightly, "Crane Immortal must know."

But it's not normal to know that you still go your own way and do these useless things over and over again.

Xiao Qi sighed: "Yuwen has cultivated a perfect soul, can't you find a clue with it?"

"That puppet is a bit weird." Kong knew, "At first, the master injected spiritual power into it, and it could indeed speak and have its own consciousness, but it was like... a lonely ghost wandering in the sun, and the time limit for returning to light passed , is no different from a lump of wood, so Master no longer has any hope."

He just talked to it every day, knowing that his own spiritual power drove the puppet to talk to its master, but he seemed to take it seriously, answering questions, talking to himself, and enjoying it.

Kong knew: "Most of the things in Qiangu City are that Wynn and I are in charge. After the Fukong Mountain was moved, the master never went back, and just slept in the main hall.

Now that he is in good health, he can hold on without eating or drinking, and he doesn't listen to anyone's persuasion, oh yes, he asks me every now and then if there is any news from Xiaoyuelou. As for the situation of the master, the landlord has seen it with his own eyes talk later. "

"Then let's go quickly." Xiao Qi folded his fan and slapped it on his palm, "He needs heart medicine for a heart disease, maybe the news I bring can give him hope."

The main hall of the Qiangu City has no name, and the magnificent one stands on the highest point, and the guarded sword puppets are quietly hidden at the bottom of the wall. No one dares to come here at all.

The hall door was ajar, and Kong Zhi stood outside looking at Xiao Qi and said, "The landlord has a look."

As Kong Zhi described, Crane Bugui was wearing a bright red thin coat, half-supported by the jade coffin, the air-conditioning inside was blowing, his face was pale but not sick, everyone knows that Crane Bugui is a complete fairy body , All diseases are invulnerable, but looking from this side, there is no trace of a fairy, and the indifferent expression can be seen at a glance, but the fanaticism in his eyes seems to be possessed by a demon.

A red light swam out from Crane Bugui's heart, wandering around in the jade crown to search, pick and choose, Crane Bugui had one hand with his sleeve rolled up high, exposing his snow-white arm, and kept lingering Find something in the dirt.

Xiao Qi gave a soft "cough" to remind him, and he didn't mean to take care of the crane if it didn't return.

Xiao Yi stared at the jade coffin, and asked deeply, "Is Young Master Yu in there?"

"It's inside." Kong knew, "Mostly it's the mud after the heart demon root melted, and the master brought it back from Wuliang Mountain." It was mixed with flesh and bones, and it was not necessary to insist that it was Yu Wuque's body .

Anyone who sees such a scene will feel sad, what kind of person is Crane Bugui, if he is not sympathetic, maybe he can really reach the Supreme Realm.

But he used his heart, easily and refused to speak, he must be a person who fell into hell and did not repent, and his heart ached to death and did not speak out.

"My lord, Xiao Yi, pay my respects to the city lord." Xiao Yi seldom took the initiative to make a sound. After clasping his fists respectfully, he expected that he would not respond if the crane did not return. He stepped into the hall and knelt under the jade coffin. Save, although we don't know much, but in Xiao's heart, the two are heroes and even close friends, so today I specially brought a jar of good wine to drink with the two of you."

Crane Bugui shrunk his fingers and blinked: "Thank you."

Xiao Qi also came over, sat on the side and took out the cups one by one, and said after drinking, "I'm not here to pay homage to Yu Wuque."

"He's not dead." He Bugui said stubbornly, "It's just that I can't find the way, huh? Xiao Qi..."

Just now a pair of eyes were still a little absent-minded, after realizing who was coming, He Bugui didn't care about the dirt in his hands, grabbed Xiao Qi's sleeve and said eagerly: "Have you found out what I entrusted to you?"

"I haven't found any trace of Ling Si and Ying Luo yet." Seeing that the crane hadn't returned and lost interest, Xiao Qi hurriedly said, "But I found one thing, the city lord should be interested."

He Bugui shook his head, not interested, without Ling Si, without Ying Long's descendants, he has no interest at all.

don't want to hear.

"I don't know where they will hide, but according to the description of the city lord, there are areas in this world that others can't see, and I found some clues." Xiao Qi bit the bullet and finished, but still failed to stir the crane to return. With a trace of nerves, he said anxiously, "Don't you want to follow me to have a look!"

Crane Bugui didn't even shake his head this time, and didn't listen to a word at all.

At this moment, the servant puppet came to report, and Ruisu returned to the city.

Rui Su hurriedly rushed to the main hall, and before entering the door, he had no time to greet Xiao Qi, knelt down on the ground with a "plop", excitedly said: "There is news! City Lord, there is news! The last place where they disappeared was a ghost mountain."

"Say." He Bugui turned his head, "What ghost mountain, where is it?"

According to Rui Su, there is no exact location of that place, because people who have seen it mention places separated by hundreds of thousands of miles every time.

But it was indeed the same place, and someone saw people who looked like Ling Si and Yingluo go in. The ghost mountain was floating in the air, quite like a mirage. From a distance, there was a Taoist temple on the mountain, and the trees were all over the mountain forest, and the birds were flying away. , like a dream.

Rui Su said: "I have drawn all the places where ghost mountains have appeared, and I will find them one by one, and there will always be gains."

"Let me take a look first." Xiao Qi frowned, suspicious, and inexplicably surprised. After reading the map coordinates, he slapped his thigh, "This is it! It's not called Ghost Mountain, it has a name! City Lord, I found a strange domain space, the exact name is Niankong Mountain."

"Niankong Mountain?!" He Bugui suddenly remembered that he and Yu Wuque went to find the whereabouts of Elder Xuanji, and strayed into a Yunzheng Temple. They watch the world where they can't see.

And that place is called Niankong Mountain. In the mountain there is a tree that hugs the mortal world, and thousands of birds return to the forest. Elder Xuanji built a hut for Hexi to find him. Standing outside the mortal world, the place where he can gaze at the mortal world is the same as the soul realm. The structure is very similar.

Xiao Qi and He Bugui said in unison: "Go back to the valley."

The life and death there is different from the life and death of the mortal world, but the soul has a place to go.

According to Yu Wuque's thinking, the people inside are also alive.

still alive.

Elder Xuanji was still alive, and Ling Si and Yingluo also escaped in.

Is that perfect...

Still alive, still waiting for yourself?
