Chapter Nine
The City Lord's Mansion is located in the center of Yancheng. The palace has carved railings, pavilions, and countless pavilions. It is very majestic. Although there are many pedestrians coming and going in Yancheng during the day, in front of the City Lord's Mansion, everyone is
Not to mention that this is the city lord's palace, even the saber-toothed tigers on both sides of the guards are intimidating. It is the middle of the day, and the city is full of prosperity.
"Steward Luo, stay! There's no need to send you off any more." Two people walked out of the mansion, it was Cang Nan who was driven away by Luo Yan and the steward of the city lord's mansion. Obviously they would only send them to the door, but Cang Nan shamelessly pretended to hand them over.
"Young Master Cang, walk slowly!" It seemed that even the housekeeper was used to Cang Nan's shamelessness and turned a blind eye to it.
"Hurry and report to the young master. The boy has left the city lord's palace and is walking out of the city." In an alley opposite the city lord's palace, two people dressed as servants were whispering. It turned out that Li Xian had always been resentful about Cang Nan's humiliation of him.
Huai, has been sending people outside the city lord to keep an eye on Cang Nan, hoping to take the opportunity to retaliate.
"Okay, finally let me wait until this time. Come on, send someone immediately to ambush on the only way out of Yancheng. Remember to leave him alive. I will torture him to death slowly. I will let this kid know that he has offended me, Li Li."
The consequences of Xian." In the Li family mansion, when Li Xian heard the news, he couldn't wait to catch Cang Nan back and torture him severely. His eyes looked out the window with a cold light.
On the official road not far from Yancheng, a carriage was slowly moving forward, and it was surrounded by dense forests. From the road, it was impossible to see what was inside. It was the most suitable place for bandits or other
What kind of ambush place? In the jungle not far from the carriage, there is a team of people ambushing inside, ready to take action. The target of the action is the carriage that is about to drive over.
"Master, this is the carriage that boy took out of the city." A servant reported to Li Xian next to him.
"Okay, prepare to take action and stay alive." Li Xian said cruelly.
"Here, let's do it!" As soon as he said this, dozens of people jumped out of the jungle and surrounded the carriage. Except for Li Xian and a guard next to him, everyone else was dressed as a servant. Looking at the dozens of menacing people in front of him,
The man and the coachman quickly stopped the carriage and ran back, rolling and crawling. However, Li Xian and his entourage paid no attention to them and just stared inside the carriage, acting like a cat playing with a mouse.
"Brother Cang, come out! No need to act coy." Li Xian looked at the carriage with a joking face, "I lost to Brother Cang last time, and I admire Brother Cang very much. This time I want to ask for advice again.
"Fan, please help me, Brother Cang." Li Xian pretended to hold his hands in front of the carriage.
"Humph! The opportunity has been given to you. It's because you don't know how to praise yourself, so don't blame me for being cruel." Seeing that there was no response in the carriage for a long time, Li Xian also lost his patience in teasing Cang Nan. He flashed and came
He went to the carriage, opened the curtain, picked up a sword and stabbed it in.
"Huh?" The blood-soaked scene that I originally thought did not appear, Li Xian's sword struck the air.
"This little beast!" When it was clear that there was no one in the carriage, Li Xian punched the carriage, and a big hole was made in the beam of the carriage. Knowing that he had been tricked by that country bumpkin again, Li Xian was really
It's hard to swallow this breath.
"Chase me, you must catch that little beast back for me." He then roared to his subordinates.
"It's the New Year in the first month! It's the first day of the new year! By betraying my love, you have borne a debt of conscience. When I finally found out the truth, I burst into tears..." On the other side, Cang Nan was humming and counting.
The golden ticket given by Luo Yan made me feel so beautiful.
"Landlords are so generous. They get ten golden tickets when they sell them. I don't know how the conversion works here. Can I buy a mansion?" Cang Nan sighed as he looked at the golden tickets in his hand. After seeing enough, he became very precious.
Putting the golden ticket into my arms, I didn't forget to pat it twice happily.
In Zixuan Continent, the common currencies for ordinary people are silver coins, silver ingots, and silver tickets. One silver ticket is equivalent to ten ingots of silver, which is a thousand silver coins. The gold ticket Luo Yan gave Cangnan is only for ordinary wealthy people.
Yes, one golden ticket is equivalent to a hundred silver tickets. You can imagine how wealthy the city lord's mansion is, and what a huge amount of wealth the golden ticket given to Cangnan is. For ordinary people like Cangnan
, this is a huge sum of money, but for cultivators, especially those like Luo Yan who have reached the golden elixir stage, worldly currency is nothing at all. What they care about is spiritual weapons and elixirs, which can already
The gifted treasure that allowed them to improve their realm. The spiritual weapon is equivalent to a handy weapon. With a good weapon, it can play a vital role in dueling with others, while the spiritual elixir is useful for cultivators.
When the true energy is used up, it is used as a supplement, especially when transcending tribulations. The quality of spiritual weapons and elixirs often determines the success of transcending tribulations.
Cultivators go against the will of heaven. Cultivators can only passively accept thunder disasters from the sky. How can ordinary mortal bodies withstand the bombardment of thunder? Although cultivators are physically stronger than ordinary people, they are not strong enough to compete with them.
The level of heavenly calamity, so most people have to rely on spiritual weapons and elixirs to survive the calamity. So sometimes, a spiritual weapon or elixir can make the immortals in the eyes of the world fight for their heads.
Breaking the blood stream, let alone the legendary spiritual treasures and spiritual elixirs of the same level, may cause a war in the world of cultivation. It would be casual for the four dynasties to start a war. But these are not what Cangnan can imagine now.
After all, he is still an ordinary person without immortality.
"Where should we go from now on? Even my only friend, Little Luo Li, has been implicated by me because of his father's opposition. By the way, I have been listening to Little Luo Li saying how the King's City is, so I'll go to the King's City to see
Look, it’s not worth traveling through time to meet the so-called Nascent Soul masters and the like." Cang Nan muttered as he left.
"But which direction is the royal city? Forget it, let's follow the groom's instructions and go to the next town to inquire." With a clear goal in mind, Cang Nan accelerated his progress.
Suddenly, the back of a young man in a white shirt appeared in front of Cang Nan, looking into the distance and waving the folding fan in his hand.
"The person who came here is not a good person! Let's take a detour before he notices." After thinking about it in his mind, he slowly backed away and prepared to leave.
"Brother Cang, since you're already here, why don't you stay and chat for a few words before leaving!" At this time, the young man turned around and said to Cang Nan, who was about to slip away. The young man in white, with a calm tone and a warm smile on his face,
He couldn't help but feel disgusted at all, and the folding fan in his hand was always swinging slowly. The person coming was none other than Lin Xun from the Lin family. But Cang Nan naturally didn't know.
"I don't know, brother, what's the point of waiting here? It seems that we don't know each other, and I don't owe you money?" Cang Nan asked cautiously. But in his heart, he was thinking about how to get rid of this guy who made him feel uncomfortable.
"Brother Cang is really good at joking! I'm Lin Xun. I heard that Brother Cang is leaving Yancheng soon, so I came here to get acquainted with him." Lin Xun kept smiling all the time.
"Isn't an ordinary person worthy of your acquaintance with the eldest son of the Lin family?" Cangnan naturally heard Xiao Luoli talk about the eldest son of the Lin family, Lin Xun, but the guy in front of her was not the same as Li Xian as she said. "A man who can be humiliated in public."
How could Li Xian, that arrogant and domineering guy, and even asked him to say the words "not as good as Brother Cang" just an ordinary person?" Lin Xun explained.
"It turns out that this guy can't stand Li Xian's pervert! There's some drama!" Cang Nan thought to himself.
"But I'm leaving Yancheng soon. How about next time, I can come out with you to chat or something when I have time? Then it's a happy decision, bye!" Cang Nan said and turned around to leave.
"Why are you in such a hurry? I just want to invite Brother Cang to our house for a little gathering. Don't worry, I don't have any ill intentions. And as long as Brother Cang is in our Lin family for a day, Li Xian will never dare to touch a hair on your head." But when Cang Nan turned around,
When he turned around, he found Lin Xun standing in front of him with a smile on his face.
"So I'm here to recruit talents. But is an ordinary person like me worthy of them doing this? Even if I am a little smart, I won't make them so thirsty for talents. It seems that there is a lot of articles in it!" Cang Nan kept thinking in his mind.
.
"But I really have something urgent, and it's not convenient for me to go to Mr. Lin's house for a small gathering. Besides, I'm not worthy of your doing this as a person who doesn't even have immortality?" Cang Nan pushed back.
"Brother Cang is indeed a smart man, so I won't beat around the bush. What I want is for you to join our Lin family, become a disciple of our Lin family, and make suggestions for us. You also know that the three major families in Yancheng, but our Lin family is unwilling to be beaten all the time.
The Luo family is under pressure, and we are preparing to seize the position of city lord in a year. As long as we succeed, Brother Cang will be the hero of our Lin family, and he will be able to move the wind and rain in Yan City." Lin Xun put away the folding fan and said straightforwardly.
"Miss Luo and I are friends. If you tell me this, aren't you afraid that I will go to the City Lord's Mansion to inform you?" Cang Nan asked tentatively.
"Brother Cang, others don't know, but I know that you were kicked out of the City Lord's Mansion by Luo Yan. He looked down on you as an ordinary person and did not allow you to continue dating his genius daughter." Lin Xun looked at Cang Nan and said.
, as if knowing everything about him.
"I didn't expect that the Lin family has so many spies. They even have agents in the city lord's palace, and they even know his affairs very well." Cang Nan was calculating in his mind.
"Then I'm afraid that Mr. Lin's reputation as a playboy is also an act." Cang Nan said. Anyone who is not a fool can now see that all Lin Xun's previous performances in Yancheng were all an act.
"Cangnan has good eyesight. Yes, I was really pretending to be a playboy before, and my realm was also hidden. I am already in the middle stage of ineditation, and I am only eighteen years old." Lin Xun said confidently.
Cang Nan just saw that Lin Xun's previous reputation as a playboy was an act. He didn't expect that even his realm was fake. It turned out that he was the number one genius in Yancheng. Even Lin Xun had hidden it so deeply, let alone his
The old fox is father.
