Chapter 40 The suggestion of the man in white robe
When he said this, the man in white robe still maintained a heartwarming smile, but I always felt that those words were said to me alone, which meant that he was sure that I would violate the rules and gave me a warning.
?
I was quite helpless, but there was nothing I could do about it. Who could have told people to see through that I was here in disguise? Anyone else would be wary of such a person, right?
Thinking about it, I am really courageous. There are so many experts in the big city. Since the receptionist can see through my disguise, other experts may not be able to, but how can I take care of so many? It is better to find my senior brothers and sisters first.
Important!
I was thinking about my own thoughts, while the man in white robe was busy assigning rooms. He seemed to have full trust in everyone. For those who said he knew the place, he usually let them go to their own rooms.
After the great monk and Mr. Su said goodbye to me and went to their own rooms, I was the only one left who had not been assigned a room.
"Let's go. I know it's your first time coming to the big city, or your first time entering the cave." The man in white robe walked up to me with his smile still on his face.
The words were simple, but I was shocked. Was this noticed?
The man in white robe seemed to have no intention of explaining, and walked straight in a certain direction. I had no choice but to follow him. He didn't explain, but I would ask: "How do you know this is my first time here?"
The man in white robe did not look back, but his voice was as gentle as the spring breeze in March: "In terms of cultivation, my talent may be average. But I have a special ability, that is, I have a photographic memory of people. To be precise, it is not just
It means that the appearance is as simple as the smell. I will remember it after being exposed to it once."
When he said the last sentence, the man in white robe stopped and turned around to look at me. His face was still smiling, but it felt more distant than the indifferent face of the receptionist because it was more
You can't see through it, and you can't get close.
I looked at him and didn't know what to say for a moment. Of course, I didn't believe that his practice was just average.
The man in white robe just smiled and added: "For so many years, I have been the one responsible for receiving distinguished guests in the cave, so I feel that you are a bit strange."
After saying this, the man in white robe walked straight forward again, and I could only follow him again, but at this time, my heart no longer felt helpless, but a vague feeling that made me excited.
The idea came to my mind.
I wasn't sure of the consequences of speaking out, but I had to give it a try, so I stopped the man in white robes.
He turned around with a smile, but there was a more doubtful look in his eyes.
"I" I hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to say it in one breath: "I want you to do a favor?"
"We do not participate in any guests' activities, let alone the relationships between guests, or the grudges. We are not responsible for anything except the rules. Please forgive me for not being able to help you in any way." The man in white robe refused very gently.
, which makes me have no temper at all, but also makes me have no hope at all. He didn’t even let me tell me what I wanted to help.
This person is just like what I feel. Although he looks gentle, he is more indifferent than an indifferent person.
In fact, I just heard about his ability and asked him to help me find where my senior brothers and sisters were. Although it was a little abrupt and the consequences were a little unpredictable, it wasn't too difficult, right? At least
I can confirm if they are in the cave area.
After being rejected, the man in white robe and I were silent all the way. He walked in front and I followed behind. We made countless detours along the way, but we still didn't reach where I lived.
But in my heart, I don't care at all where I live, even if they arrange a shabby house for me.
In fact, it was the 'scenery' on the street that diverted my attention. The houses on both sides turned out to be various shops selling a variety of things. Together with this antique building, it gave me a feeling of dreaming back to the Tang and Song Dynasties.
It is the most coveted era in China.
But that’s not entirely true, because in addition to medicinal materials, most of what these shops sell are things needed by cultivators. Would normal Tang and Song bazaars sell these things?
But no matter what, walking in it, I have a feeling that I have escaped from this world.
"Actually, this distinguished guest, if you can pay a certain fee or price, you can temporarily own such a shop, which will be more convenient for you to buy and sell things or collect information. These shop streets are open from 9 to 12 every morning.
pm, it will be open from 3 to 6 in the afternoon, and it will be lively at that time. If you are interested, you can come and have a look." The man in white robe turned around, probably seeing that I was interested in the shops on the street.
I explained it.
"Can people in the tent area also come up and rent a shop?" I asked. If that's the case, then I need to take a good look around. Maybe they will rent a shop?
"They can't. They have their own trading area. VIPs can go to their trading area, and they can also pay a certain fee to come up. But they can't rent the shops here. In fact, there are specific rules in your room.
This booklet explains it in detail." The man in white robe usually answered my questions in detail, but in fact he didn't give me a chance to ask the next question at all.
During the conversation, the room that belonged to me arrived quickly. The location was pretty good. Behind it was one of the commercial streets, and I could just see the three huge statues from the front. In this way, it was considered a prime location here.
'Really? Since you are on guard against me, why do you treat me so favorably? I don't understand.
The man in white robe opened the door to my room, and I followed him in. The whole room was simply decorated, but antique. Just like the appearance of the house, it was full of the style of the Tang and Song Dynasties, including the bed, seats, and screens.
, every detail has been done to the extreme, completely imitating that era.
Could it be that the Snow Mountain lineage has existed since the Tang and Song Dynasties? I doubt it, but it is obviously impossible to ask this question.
When I was looking around the room, the man in white robe had already walked to the door. I thought that according to his character, he would not talk nonsense to me anymore, but he didn't want to walk to the door. He suddenly stopped and said:
He looked at me with that smiling expression.
"Is there anything else?" I asked, raising my eyebrows.
"If I were you, I would probably go out less often, unless it's a special occasion." The man in white robe said to me inexplicably.
I narrowed my eyes slightly and asked, "Why?"
"The big market is a grand event in the world of cultivators. Generally, after three days, the number of cultivators who come here will reach a peak. It is not an exaggeration to think that there are hundreds of thousands of people. Such people are so many and confused. If you go out, you can pretend
It's meaningless." The smile on the white-robed man's face seemed to be more sincere.
But I was amazed, there are so many 100,000 people? But comparing with the population of this planet, 100,000 people seem to be very few. Even if the people gathered here are not all cultivators, they are more or less representative of a number. It seems that
Compared to certain eras, cultivators are indeed in decline.
However, at the same time, I also understood the meaning of the man in white robe. He really reminded me kindly, and there was something in his words.
I'm not a fool, so I asked directly: "What are the special circumstances?"
The man in white robe tilted his head slightly and said innocently: "Everyone is different, right? If you are looking for someone, you must not miss tomorrow. Tomorrow is the fourth day. How many people are here?"
We have reached the peak, so according to the rules, a Fish Leaping Dragon Gate Conference will be held. Of course, the specific rules are explained, you can read the booklet placed by the bedside."
After saying this, the man in white robe was ready to leave, but how could I just let him leave like this?
"Why do you want to help me?" I asked loudly, knowing that I was pretending to help me, there was a hint of "weirdness" in this matter.
"If you think I mean well, why do you need to know the reason? If you need a reason, it's very simple. You came here in disguise, obviously to avoid something, but we have been peaceful here for too long, and it won't
Anything outside the rules is allowed to happen, that's it." The man in white robe answered accurately.
"But why do you have to remind me how to find someone?" I feel like I'm an idiot for asking this question, but I have to ask, if Xueshan Yiyi wants to help me, my things and even my situation will change.
.
"Are you looking for someone? Oh, I just knew it." The man in white robe looked innocent, and then a smile appeared on his face again, but this time no matter how I looked at him, I felt a little cunning.
He left, and I stood in the room blankly. I always felt that my life was really 'good', and I met strange people and things again. After being bored for nearly a minute, I finally remembered to look at the bedside table.
