For thousands of years in the East Aquarius Continent, there was the emperor Liu Shui in the north, and the Fu family in the far south.
The Fu family in Old Longcheng is very rich. How can anyone be rich? For example, there are three magic weapons that are even worse than the Immortal Weapon. All of them were bought with money, and were passed down from generation to generation until they reached the current head of the family.
In Fu Qi's hands, I heard that the Fu family went to the Middle Earth Divine Continent and just came back. Didn't they add a handful of semi-immortal soldiers? Can only three things be done? The Fu family is not that particular.
There are many interesting things about the Fu family. For example, they never compile a family tree, and their descendants are always named randomly. The women of the Fu family have a very high status. In history, the number of female heroes who have served as city lords can be counted on one hand. The children of the Fu family
You can read, buy and collect books. Private libraries have the largest collection of rare and unique books in Aquarius Continent. However, even the branch of the Fu family that left Old Dragon City never took part in the imperial examinations and did not serve as military officers or civil servants for any emperor or monarch.
It doesn't matter if you just lie there in a mountain of gold and silver, eat and wait for death, the family heads of the past generations have never had any prejudice against this and have raised them all.
Therefore, the wealthy Fu family has produced many outstanding children who are the best at chess, calligraphy and painting, and have superb piano skills. Fu's descendants have also written the most classic recipes and published landscape travel notes that have become popular across the continent. They have spread across the vast north.
The territory has bought countless hills, but they have been left empty to build the Immortal Family's mansion, leaving them abandoned and abandoned.
There are too many weird and wonderful people in the Fu family.
But the Fu family has a family rule that is unbreakable.
Only the strongest in the family can wear the ancestral dragon robe.
The ferry where the Sheep Fat Hall ferry docks is more than 300 miles outside Laolong City. It is not a secluded place with beautiful scenery. Nearly a hundred ferries of various colors are stranded here, noisy and overcrowded. There are also dead ferry boats built by Mohist craftsmen.
, there are also living animal ferries similar to Kun boats, which are so bizarre that Chen Ping'an was dazzled by them on the way down.
Before the ferry docked, Chen Ping'an heard a saying that an ordinary person living in the city would never be able to visit Old Dragon City in his lifetime.
Chen Pingan was on the ferry and tried to overlook the whole view of Laolong City, but found that it was covered by a sea of clouds, which made him a little regretful. Due to the appearance of Liu Baqiao, the old man from Sheep Fattang who was in charge of the ferry took the initiative to come to Chen Pingan and help him.
To solve the puzzle, it turns out that those billowing clouds are a semi-immortal weapon of the old Dragon City. If you look up at the sky from the city, you won't see half a cloud. The old man also told Chen Ping'an a shocking legend.
According to legend, eight hundred years ago, nearly a thousand evil monks attacked Old Dragon City in a mighty manner. Among them were two earth immortals and as many as ten top Qi practitioners in the Jindan Yuanying realm. This group of powers
In order to plan the occupation of Old Dragon City, a group of tyrannical people have been operating secretly for nearly a hundred years. They cooperated internally and externally, and everything was ready. When the army pressed on, it happened to be the critical moment when the old city owner passed away and the new family owner had not yet emerged. Old Dragon City
The Twelve Houses of Neifu Family have been in internal strife and their vitality has been severely damaged. Especially the two ancestors of the Fu Family, each armed with a semi-immortal weapon, fought hard, even though there were layers of spell restrictions, which greatly suppressed the semi-immortal weapon.
The lethality was still enough to destroy half of the Old Dragon City.
The result came when a female qigong practitioner appeared out of nowhere, as if she was dozing off in the sea of clouds in Old Dragon City. After she appeared, she glanced at the smoke-filled Old Dragon City under her feet, and then at the more than a thousand practitioners.
The spirit warriors gathered together. After she yawned, she reached out and grabbed the sea of clouds that occupied a thousand miles in radius. She condensed it into a bead in the palm of her hand and threw it into her mouth. Then she sneezed,
Hundreds of thousands of strong wind tornadoes appeared in the South China Sea, blowing away from the sea to the north. The Demon Dao Qi Practitioners who were bound to win over Old Dragon City, not to mention the indiscriminate Yu skills, were just the lower five realm practitioners responsible for waving the flag and shouting.
Nearly half of the Qi warriors, just the gods in the middle five realms, were blown to death by the strong winds. After that, the demons who escaped the disaster fled in a hurry and were hunted down by the Fu family, who were in a stable situation, for a full hundred years.
.
Chen Pingan was stunned for a moment after hearing this.
The old man finally asked with a smile: "Why, Master, you don't believe me?"
Chen Pingan shook his head. Of course he didn't believe it. How could anyone in the world be able to kill so many middle-level qi practitioners with just one magical power?
The old man stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Actually, I don't believe it either. Even if Qi Zhen, the Heavenly Lord of the Shengaozong, the Sword Immortal and the Saint from Fengxue Temple and Zhenwu Mountain, joined forces to attack, they shouldn't have such power. Later generations will exaggerate it.
That’s all, but having said that, this kind of scare story has to be exaggerated like mine to be interesting.”
Saying goodbye to the old man, Chen Ping'an got off the ferry. There were tall buildings lined up one after another. The streets were incredibly wide. People were still walking shoulder to shoulder. Chen Ping'an was trapped in it and had a headache. This was already the case before he entered Old Dragon City.
, how to find Chenchen Pharmacy and Zheng Dafeng. In the previous chat with the old man of Sheep Fat Hall, Chen Pingan tentatively asked about Hanging Mountain and wanted to know if he could go there by cross-continental ferry. As a result, the old man looked blank and only said Hanging Mountain.
Shan, of course, has heard that the second disciple of Daozu's mountain seal is very domineering. A Taoist master from other places in the world can actually drive such a big nail in our vast world. It would be too disrespectful to enshrine those who are enshrined in the Confucian Temple.
Idols and saints take it seriously.
But the old man had never heard that there was a ferry to Laolongcheng Ferry. The old man didn't even know the specific location of Xuanxuan Mountain. He only heard that it was relatively close to the Nanbosu Island.
So after getting off the boat, Chen Ping'an was like a headless fly. He could only take one step at a time. He first walked the three hundred miles honestly and entered the Old Dragon City. He asked questions along the way to make sure that the general direction was correct.
Later, Chen Ping'an discovered that there were no people on foot in the middle of the avenue. There were many vehicles coming and going like the wind. There were carriages that were more precious and magnificent. The horses pulling the carriages were each more handsome and strange than the other. Some people's mounts were tigers.
Long Snake and Big Turtle and Crane, although everyone is a Qi practitioner, the streets are orderly and no one dares to run rampant.
Old man Yang, the old man surnamed Cui, and Wei Bo all suggested that after reaching the fourth realm of martial arts, they would take the Old Dragon City ferry to Xuanxuan Mountain. Therefore, before that, Chen Pingan was not too obsessed with rushing. But when Chen Pingan
After landing on the boundary of Old Dragon City, I didn't know why I wanted to rush to Daoxuan Mountain as soon as possible. There was no such thing as four realms but four realms, but I lost my obsession.
Having traveled the entire Aquarius Continent from north to south, millions of miles away, Chen Pingan had never been so urgent, so he made an unprecedented and generous move at a place similar to an inn on the street.
, spent ten pieces of snow to hire a carriage, with two snow-white horses pulling the carriage. The driver was not a young man, but a young girl with average appearance, exuding a natural cheerfulness, without any trace of
She was shy. After Chen Pingan got into the carriage, she suggested to her employer that she might as well sit next to her. During the drive, she would introduce the famous shops on both sides of the street to the guests, as well as the delicious delicacies and astonishingly priced antiques.
She grew up at the ferry outside Laolong City and was very familiar with calligraphy and painting. It was a worthwhile trip for Chen Ping'an to ride in her carriage!
The carriage slowly passed through the sea of people. After entering the middle of the street, the girl suddenly accelerated her horse and drove quickly towards the west gate of Laolong City with other vehicles. Chen Pingan sat behind the girl who was driving skillfully, eating dry biscuits and not daring to
Drinking. Because Yang Jian Gourd had been wrapped in cotton on the back of his crossbody before he disembarked. Wei Bo had reminded him at the beginning that the ten realm immortals and saints above the Golden Elixir Yuan Ying could still see through the deception he used and recognize Yang.
Sword gourd.
The girl was very cheerful and outgoing, and talked endlessly. She told Chen Pingan the historical origins of the high-rise shops, introduced the amazing mountain gods among them, what heroic words she had said and what feats she had done. Chen Pingan had traveled through the "Five Realms".
In the world of "Big Demon", it was not until today that I found a place that resembled my hometown town. It was like a god in the middle five realms was finally not that valuable.
Chen Pingan asked the girl if she had ever heard of the Dust Drug Store in the city. The girl shook her head and said that she didn’t know much about the scene in Old Dragon City because Old Dragon City was so big and there were separate cities in the city and Fu City.
To pass through a city gate, you have to pay a high fee. As long as you are a foreigner, no matter whether you are a golden elixir, a Yuanying, an old god, or the King of Heaven, I am no exception. So she has only been to the outer city of Old Dragon City a few times, and every time she goes
Once upon a time, the money bag that I finally saved up will definitely become dry.
However, if it is the Fu family and the other children of the five major surnames in Old Dragon City, not only can they cross the border again and again without spending money, but they can also ride the wind in the inner and outer cities. Of course, if you have the ability to buy an Old Dragon Cloud Pendant from the Fu family, you can also
You can fly freely in the wind, except for the Fujia City in the center of the Old Dragon City, you are not allowed to fly by, and you are free and unrestrained. The girl driving asked Chen Ping'an, can you guess how much an Old Dragon Cloud-turning Jade Pendant costs?
Chen Pingan tried his best to guess the sky-high price, saying that a thousand pieces of snow would cost him.
That's one million taels of silver.
The girl laughed heartily, turned her head towards Chen Pingan and stretched out a palm, "Five thousand!"
Chen Ping'an was afraid that something might be wrong with the carriage, so he ignored the shock in his heart and said quickly: "Girl, drive carefully."
The girl laughed, turned around, and turned her back to Chen Ping'an. However, the girl raised her chin high and said proudly: "Young Master, I'm really not bragging. Even if I let go of the reins with both hands and close my eyes, the carriage will be stable."
I ran steadily to the west gate. It’s just that I pretended to drive seriously so that the guests wouldn’t worry.”
Chen Pingan said softly: "Don't pretend."
The girl laughed loudly, "Okay, show me how serious you are!"
Chen Pingan looked at the girl's back and couldn't help laughing. Then he turned to look at the bustling scene of the street on one side. The breeze was blowing on his face. It was strange. Along the way south, there was often wind and sun, but Chen Pingan's skin was fair.
After a while, he was no longer the black coal-like kiln worker he was before.
The girl seemed to have eyes on her back. Knowing that the foreign boy was looking towards the street, she secretly turned her head, then quickly turned her head again, just for a brief glance, and secretly glanced at the side face of the boy with the box in his back.
The young man is not handsome, but he looks really pleasing to the eye.
The girl suddenly laughed out loud: "Sir, you are very good-looking."
Chen Ping'an was probably infected by the girl's cheerful mood, so he joked: "If you look at the girl a few more times, can you charge me less money?"
For Chen Ping'an's change, A Liang, Xu Yuanxia, and Liu Baqiao must be the culprits.
The girl smiled and said, "That's not possible. It's nearly six hundred miles from the shop to the city gate. I have to make ten trips to earn a piece of snow money."
Chen Pingan nodded and said: "It's quite hard."
The girl with her back to Chen Ping'an shook her head vigorously, "Sir, what's so hard about this? I've always liked running back and forth like this since I was a child. Even if I have my own shop in the future and make a lot of money, I will still drive the car myself.
By going back and forth, I can get to know many, many customers, like Mr.
The girl immediately felt a little sad, "But it costs a lot of money to buy a shop. I think my whole life will be in jeopardy."
The girl laughed loudly: "Xuan!"
It turns out that the little girl ended up happy in the end.
Chen Pingan smiled and helped encourage, "Earn slowly, you will be richer today than yesterday, you will be richer tomorrow than today, and you will be richer the day after tomorrow than tomorrow!"
The girl suddenly became high-spirited and turned to Chen Pingan with a bright smile.
At first, because of Fu Nanhua, the young lord of Old Dragon City, Chen Ping'an actually had a very bad impression of Old Dragon City, no better than Zhengyang Mountain.
But Chen Pingan likes this girl from the bottom of his heart. Of course, it is not the kind of love between men and women, but the girl has a feeling of sunny flowers and trees. Chen Pingan is willing to deal with this kind of person, and the same is true for the young Taoist priest and the bearded man who have been separated.
.
The girl continued to introduce the streets on both sides, and Chen Pingan followed her finger and looked at them one by one.
Time passes by the sound of horse hooves.
In less than an hour, Chen Ping'an could already see the high outer wall of Old Dragon City, which was much higher than the walls of any pass city he had seen before.
Before stopping the horse, Chen Pingan asked: "Do you know Sun Jiashu?"
The girl turned her head in surprise, "Who?"
Chen Pingan could only repeat the name, "Sun Jiashu."
The girl couldn't help laughing and kept silent for a long time. Until the carriage stopped, the girl suddenly stood up, pointed to the street behind her, raised her arms and drew a big circle, "Sir, did you see it?"
Chen Pingan nodded.
The girl's eyes narrowed into crescent moons, "From our city gate to the ferry, all the shops in the streets for three hundred miles belong to him!"
Chen Ping'an stood on the carriage with the girl, a little confused, "Is it all Sun Jiashu's alone?"
The girl nodded vigorously, feeling extremely proud, "Yes! They are all Mr. Sun's!"
Then the girl lowered her voice and said mysteriously: "I heard from the shopkeeper that Mr. Sun is a very nice person. Although he is the best at doing business, he has the heart of a first-class Bodhisattva. Almost no one with the bad temper on the street can
People of all generations also talked about the good deeds of Mr. Sun and his parents. They said that there was a fire in the street in the early years, which destroyed two to three thousand shops of the Sun family. At that time, Mr. Sun, who had just become the head of the family, not only did not pursue the case, but also
I helped everyone rebuild the store with my own money, and I also heard from many women that Mr. Sun is very handsome, so he is the most kind-hearted and handsome man in our old Longcheng!"
There was still a hundred feet away from the city gate, and the road was full of vehicles like this. Then among the crowd, a young man in plain white linen walked up and walked straight to the carriage where Chen Pingan and the girl were standing.
, the man has a slender figure and a jade tree facing the wind, but he does not give people the invisible pressure of standing out from the crowd. He just has a clean temperament, like a gentleman who comes from a scholarly family, gentle and elegant.
There were many pedestrians hurriedly walking in the gap between the vehicles on both sides of the road. Someone accidentally bumped into the man's shoulder and apologized quickly. The man smiled and shook his head and said it didn't matter.
The girl turned her head to look at Old Longcheng and murmured: "Master, how can there be such a good Master Sun in the world?"
Chen Pingan was speechless.
The young man who had been standing for a while finally raised his head with a smile, looked at the two people, and whispered to the girl: "Thank you."
The girl was confused, looked down, and asked doubtfully: "What are you thanking me for?"
The young man smiled without explaining the reason, and then looked at Chen Pingan, "You are Chen Pingan, right? I am Liu Baqiao's friend. I just received his flying sword message not long ago, so I came here specifically to wait for you."
Chen Ping'an jumped off the carriage. It was too rude to stand at such a high place and talk to people. He asked tentatively: "Are you not..."
Chen Ping'an finally couldn't bear to say the name that came after it.
The man nodded and said, "Yes, I am Sun Jiashu."
The girl sighed and said helplessly: "Master, why do you have the same name as Mr. Sun? How wronged you are."
The young man smiled and said nothing.
The girl said goodbye to Chen Pingan, the carriage slowly turned around, and finally turned around and left.
Chen Ping'an followed Sun Jiashu towards the west gate of Old Dragon City and couldn't help but ask: "Sun... Mr. Sun, does the whole street belong to you?"
Sun Jiashu did not pretend to be reserved, nodded and smiled: "When our ancestors were most prosperous, the entire outer city of Old Dragon City belonged to my family. Later, Old Dragon City became bigger and bigger, and our Sun family made several large losses.
Business has become less wealthy than the Fu family. But of course the Sun family is still very wealthy now, well, even I, Sun Jiashu, am rich."
Chen Ping'an secretly glanced at Sun Jiashu. There were no ornaments hanging on the man's body, and he couldn't even see any aura of wealth.
Sun Jiashu smiled and said: "Old Dragon Fanyunpei? No one in our Sun family has it, and I am no exception. In fact, everyone wants to buy it, but the rigid rules handed down from our ancestors do not allow future generations to spend too much money on such trivial matters, and I don't have it either.
There is no way to change the ancestral family law, so I have to endure it, which is actually very annoying."
Chen Pingan was about to speak but stopped.
Sun Jiashu turned around and said, "Why, are you asking me to return the twenty pieces of snow to you? Of course not, friends are friends, and business is business."
Chen Ping'an scratched his head, "I wanted to ask Lao Longcheng that it's so big, do we have to go all the way to your house?"
Sun Jiashu said nothing and looked at Chen Pingan with a smile.
Chen Pingan sighed and said frankly: "Okay, if you don't pay it back, I won't pay it back."
Sun Jiashu suddenly said: "No wonder Liu Baqiao said that we would fall in love."
Chen Ping'an asked curiously: "Are you often called a money addict?"
Sun Jiashu was a little dumbfounded. He shook his head slightly and said, "Liu Baqiao said that we both like to be poor and generous."
What are you talking about? What Liu Baqiao said was incomprehensible.
Regardless of whether he is generous or not, is Sun Jiashu poor?
Sun Jiashu suddenly said: "I have a special ability, that is, I can see the money that a person has passed but not caught."
Then he stopped, turned to look at Chen Pingan, and revealed the secret, "The things you gave away are more valuable than the entire Old Dragon City."
————
In the inner city of Laolong City, there is a newly opened small drug store in a quiet alley. It is only the size of a palm. The man who owns the shop actually employs seven or eight beautiful and charming women. They are all without exception.
, all have a pair of long legs. The men have nothing to do all day long, never worrying about the business of the drug store. They are busy chatting with them, saying some dirty words about themselves, and the women look shy on the surface, but turn around and roll their eyes.
.
Today, this man took up a small bench and sat at the entrance of the alley, eating melon seeds and looking at the women passing by on the street. His eyes lit up, thinking that domestic flowers were indeed not as fragrant as wild flowers.
Then today, there was another woman walking in front of the man on the street. She was dressed very flashy. As for her appearance and figure... Anyway, the man had already lost his melon seeds, picked up the bench and ran away.
