In the ancient town, there were few pedestrians. In the restaurant facing the street, the waiter sat boredly behind the counter and yawned.
It was noon at this time, but vendors on both sides of the road were already packing up their stalls and preparing to close up and leave.
Someone noticed Chu Ran and his entourage walking slowly. They were startled at first, then quickly stopped what they were doing, rubbed their hands, and said enthusiastically: "The weather is hot, would you like to drink some tea to quench your thirst?"
"This is a small fire crystal stone with excellent texture. You nobles may wish to take a look. If you like it, the price is negotiable!"
"Go away, go away, don't block the way! Dear ladies, don't listen to them. If you need to buy something, you have to go to my place! Spirit grass, crystals, runes, elixirs, and the girl's favorite accessories, I have whatever you want.
, you are guaranteed to be satisfied!”
"Noble..."
"Noble..."
In an instant, Chu Ran and others were deeply surrounded by vendors.
Their eyes were as bright as fire and they were as enthusiastic as fire. If they hadn't noticed that Chu Ran and the others had good temperaments and were not easy to mess with at first sight, they would have even wanted to snatch people away to their stalls.
Chu Ran glanced at the overly enthusiastic crowd in front of him, and then his eyes fell on the stall owner who spoke first, but was pushed and was about to be squeezed out of the crowd.
"I'm really thirsty." She turned her head and glanced at her companion, "Let's go and drink tea."
She walked towards the stall owner.
When the other vendors saw this, their faces turned red with anxiety, but they did not dare to make any mistakes, so they could only reluctantly make way for them.
It wasn't until they were sitting in the open-air tea stall that the vendors gradually dispersed. However, they still did not give up and were not in a hurry to close the stall and go home. Instead, they returned to their stalls and looked at Chu Ran eagerly.
"The people here are too strange." Zhou Yuxue and Zhou Qingsu sat on a bench and whispered to their companions.
Chu Ran looked over and saw that the vendors immediately showed attentive and almost flattering smiles.
She frowned lightly: "Black Rock City was not like this in the past. Something must have happened."
While talking, the stall owner had already brewed the tea as quickly as possible and trotted over to deliver it.
"I have kept you waiting for a long time." As he said this, he filled the bowl for them. Seeing Chu Ran looking at the vendors in the distance, he couldn't help but say: "Nobles, don't pay attention to them. It's just that more and more people have come to the city in recent days.
"Young master, all the capable people in the city have gone out of the city, and our business is getting harder and harder day by day. That's why everyone was so excited when they saw you show up just now."
"Oh?" Chu Ran raised his eyebrows: "Why is this?"
The stall owner was stunned for a moment: "Don't you know, noble man?"
He was extremely surprised. Seeing that Chu Ran and the others really didn't know, he immediately explained.
"It's because of the great competition between tides and seas."
Chu Ran's expression changed.
She naturally knows about the Chaohai. It is a sea area within the territory of Shenque Palace. Every year when the tide rises, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within the sea area will become extremely abundant. Whenever this happens, the disciples in Shenque Palace will rise in the tide.
The sea gathers together to absorb spiritual power and improve their cultivation.
Therefore, this period is also called the spiritual tide.
But she had never heard of the so-called Dabi.
Could it be something created by those two guys?
Chu Ran had a vague premonition in his heart.
And this premonition was confirmed the next moment!
"Half a month later is the day when the great competition will begin. Five years ago, in order to pay tribute to his deceased fiancée, the master of the Divine King Palace, Luo Palace, announced to the world at the beginning of the establishment of the Divine King Palace that the tide sea would be opened during the high water period, so that all people with potential on the mainland could
Talented warriors can enjoy the baptism of the spiritual power tide. Even if they are born into a poor family, as long as they can pass the competition and enter the top one thousand, they can get this opportunity! This is a great act of kindness!"
Speaking of this, the stall owner couldn't hide his admiration.
"Except for Hall Master Luo, who else in the world can be so selfless? But it is Hall Master Luo who has traitors who want to smear his reputation! The master who massacred the God King Palace even used Hall Master Luo
The deceased fiancée destroyed the prestige of the God King’s Palace!”
The stall owner gritted his teeth as he spoke, his face full of hatred.
"If you ask me, this guy deserves to be scraped off the frying pan!"
He cursed fiercely, and then seemed to think of something to relieve his anger, and said happily: "But it's almost over. I heard that the God King Palace has caught his accomplices. Before this tidal competition, the God King Palace
He will be tried in public! At that time, let’s see who dares to talk nonsense and talk about the rights and wrongs of the God King’s Palace!”
