Sanshan City is located in the southeast of Qinghe County, which is considered remote. The entire city is surrounded by mountains, and the three peaks are the most famous, so it is named Sanshan City.
These three peaks are called Shubi, Yuheng, and Feilai.
People in this city are often scornfully called mountain barbarians because of their poverty and isolation. Many people can't even afford shoes, so they climb over the mountains and ridges barefoot as if they were walking on flat ground.
As long as the people from Sanshan City arrive, this year's Three Cities Forum can officially begin, because the people from Wangjiang City have entered the city one day in advance.
Geographically speaking, the straight line distance from Shangsanshan City is a little farther, but not too far. However, the waterway from Wangjiang City to Maplewood City is extremely convenient. Take a boat down the Qingjiang River and then turn into the tributary Green River.
Liuhe, if the wind direction is just right, you can even arrive in the morning and at night.
As for walking from Sanshan City to Maplewood City, it would take about three or four days at ordinary people's pace... This is because of the official way.
This does not mean that students who do not participate in Taoism can rest. During the entire three-city Taoism, they still need to assist the government in maintaining order. New disciples like Ling He and Zhao Rucheng have no chance of being lazy.
Under such a situation, the city guards all detached themselves to garrison the city, and they had nothing to complain about.
The Sanshan City team must have entered through the south gate, so after receiving the notice, they stood at the south gate entrance early to greet them.
"How long do we have to wait?" Zhao Rucheng yawned: "If I had known that I would still be unable to escape in the end, I would have entered the competition by myself. Why did I give up my spot to my third brother?"
At this time, Jiang Wang was recuperating at home in the name of preparing for the competition. But those of them who did not have to participate in the competition had been working as patrol soldiers for three days. The difference in treatment was so huge.
"Sigh." Huang Azhan also shook his head: "I also saw that Senior Brother Zhang was getting older, so I felt soft-hearted. Otherwise, I should be leading the team. Why would I waste my time with you kids!"
As a student in the three-year period, no matter how much he brags, he should end up with Li Jianqiu. But he jumped to the five-year period in one step, directly taking the position of team leader. It can only be said that there is no end to bragging.
Zhao Rucheng and Ling He both turned to look at him and gave him approving looks.
"Yeah?"
While Huang Azhan was wondering, a faint voice from behind continued: "Am I very old?"
Huang Azhan almost jumped up: "What I want to express is...Senior Brother Zhang is highly respected!"
Zhang Linchuan was right behind him, keeping about two steps away, half-smiling but not smiling: "For the sake of the overall situation of Maplewood City, how can you be so soft-hearted? Why don't you give in and take back your position as the leader..."
"Oh! Oh!" Huang Azhan said in a sullen voice, "Why does your stomach hurt so much?"
"Brothers and brothers, please bear with me. I'll be back soon." He held his stomach with a painful expression, hunched his back, and ran away in a hurry.
If I go back, I will naturally not go back again. I would rather be punished by the Taoist Academy, or deduct a Taoist honor.
Zhao Rucheng curled his lips. He was just feeling happy for a moment. This Huang Azhan would not die if he didn't do something. It seems that Du Laohu left and drank too little.
"Senior Brother Zhang." Ling He had a good temper. He bowed to senior brother first and then said, "Why are you here?"
Zhang Linchuan nodded in return: "The discussion is about to begin, I have to observe the enemy's situation."
It seems that Dong A has really put a lot of pressure on him, so that he who loves cleanliness is even willing to squeeze in the crowd to observe the 'enemy situation'.
In fact, there are quite a few ordinary people crowded in the south gate. Compared with the rich people in Wangjiang City, they are more interested in the so-called mountain barbarians.
"coming!"
There was a commotion ahead, but it was the students from Sanshan City Taoist Academy who finally arrived.
Unlike the cultivators from Wangjiang City who brought a bunch of servants as if they were out for fun, only six people came from Sanshan City. The quota for each city to participate in the discussion was exactly six.
They entered from the south gate in a formation of one, three, and two.
People looked at their feet almost immediately. It is said that each family of the mountain barbarians only has one pair of shoes, which are only worn by those who want to go on a long journey.
And they were not disappointed. The girl walking at the front of Sanshan City was barefoot.
This kind of discriminatory scrutiny would undoubtedly make people unhappy. Therefore, Ling He immediately greeted him.
"Fellow Taoists of Sanshan City! Fenglin City Taoist Temple Linghe has been waiting for a long time. Please follow me. Let's go to the Taoist Temple to rest and have a meal first. I will take you to familiarize yourself with the Taoist discussion venue later."
It stands to reason that among these people, Huang Azhan, who has served for three years, should be the person in charge of welcoming visitors to Sanshan City. However, the dispatching division commander appointed Ling He because of his poor image, and Ling He's sincerity indeed made him very suitable for this job.
job.
The people from Sanshan City had already followed Ling He before they could get upset.
To Zhao Rucheng's surprise, the people crowded near the city gate focused more on the round and fat figure in the middle of the Sanshan City team.
Different from other people's simple and neat attire, he was wearing a hooded black robe, with his entire face hidden in the hood, which made him look particularly weird and eye-catching.
Zhao Rucheng could even hear some people talking.
"That's their strongest one, right?"
"That goes without saying. Standing where the stars are holding the moon, look at the momentum!"
"It looks terrible."
"We in Maplewood City must be vigilant!"
"What are you afraid of? Zhang Linchuan from the Zhang family is not a vegetarian!"
"He seems to be a vegetarian... The last time he came to our restaurant, he didn't taste the bear's paws and only ate a few chopsticks of green vegetables. I gave them the food!"
The topic is gradually getting sidetracked...
As for the little girl walking at the front of the team in Sanshan City, she is too harmless. Even though she is indeed beautiful, petite, and cute. But after all, the world of cultivators is a cruel world, and only the truly strong can
Only then will people take him seriously.
As a member of the welcoming guests, Zhao Rucheng certainly talked to the cultivators of Sanshan City at various times, but these people talked less, and they paid great attention to the formation and firmly protected the guy in black robes.
The center seems to be afraid that someone will study their secret magic weapon.
Young Master Zhao pretended to squeeze in unintentionally several times but failed to squeeze in, so he gave up.
But he noticed that as the people on the roadside were talking, the faces of these Sanshan City cultivators... were a little strange.
Zhang Linchuan was not with them, he just squeezed in the crowd and looked at them for a few times before leaving.
With Ling He's enthusiastic introduction and the barefoot girl's thoughtful response, the group turned to the right and headed towards the Taoist temple.
The barefoot girl suddenly stopped and turned her gaze to a restaurant on the street.
On the second floor of the restaurant, a young man with an elegant face stood by the window. He put one hand behind his back and held a cup in the other, responding to the barefoot girl from a distance. He showed an impeccable smile.
The barefoot girl walked forward without squinting.
And Linghe recognized it.
That is the leader of this Taoist discussion in Wangjiang City, and the number one Taoist honors list in Wangjiang City Taoist Academy, Lin Zhengren!
