Huaguzi Street, also known as Changxiang Road and Fuliu Lane.
It is the famous gold-selling cave in Tongqian City.
At this time, it was evening, and a bay of water gurgled out of the alleyway, carrying a canoe, red roses, peonies, and a group of orioles and swallows, and a young girl with bare arms.
Many men were lingering at the entrance of the alley, stretching their necks to look in, sometimes whistling in between their mouths.
In the alley, there were a lot of people coming and going, most of them dressed in rich clothes. Some people were beating their chests and stamping their feet and sighing, while others were glowing with pride in the spring breeze.
There are some drunkards lying on the street, chattering and drinking like crazy.
Chen Yu wore a white robe and walked along the way. He raised his eyebrows and glanced at the high-rise courtyard walls covered with lanterns, and then at the beggars crowded together on the street corner.
He looked incomprehensible and sighed faintly.
I have seen so much along the way. In the past, I stayed in the mountains and never heard anything. After all, I lacked a bit of real experience in my ears. But now it is different. Although I am prepared, I know that this land and water are suffering from war and famine.
But after witnessing all kinds of things in the world with his own eyes, he suddenly realized that his thinking was still too shallow.
Although the world has not fallen apart, it is not far away. No wonder the White Lotus Sect, the Five Dou Sect, and others have deceived the people and caused chaos.
"There will be chaos, but this is still within Guangyong Mansion."
Xizhou is located in the corner of Daliang and has four prefectures. Although Guangyong Prefecture is not rich, it can be regarded as a relatively peaceful one among the four prefectures. Except for the Taoyang bandit, few major bandit disasters have occurred in recent decades.
Even so, many troubles have occurred now. He heard and saw bandits and thieves on the road. They had no less than 17 or 18 incidents of urination and urination. Most of them occupied mountains and rivers.
The people are free from suffering, but the city is still filled with drunkenness and dreams, which is really touching.
Thinking of the incident in Shengyu Village he met the day before yesterday, Chen Yu sighed and left quickly.
…
At night, inside an inn.
There was a lot of fog in the mountains, so he had no idea of staying overnight in the wilderness, so he went to the city early to book a room as a temporary place to rest.
"Today is the eighth day of the lunar month, and there are still two days left before the Dharma conference."
He took the invitation with him, and the date set on it was May 10th. Chen Yu called the storekeeper to get hot water, and while waiting, he thought about it.
The Tongqian City where he is now is not far from Pingcheng, and he is expected to arrive in one day.
In fact, there is no fast horse here, otherwise it would only take one day to get there.
However, horses are not cheap, and Chen Yu planned to look around and take this opportunity to learn more about the mountains, so he simply chose to walk.
Now it seems that this decision is still correct.
Turning his eyes back, he sat cross-legged on the bed and adjusted his breathing for a while, working on his still-refined summoning technique, slowly exercising and controlling his mental power.
He had no time to spare during the two days he went down the mountain. While trekking on the road, he was also practicing his control over his spiritual power. At the same time, he was also perfecting the first sound attack technique.
Nowadays, the former is progressing step by step, and can vaguely leave the body for ten breaths. However, it seems to be stuck in a bottleneck, and the improvement is too slow. On the contrary, the latter has gained a lot in the short period of time since its creation.
The day before yesterday, he was able to stun nearly a hundred people in Shengyu Village in one fell swoop because of this technique.
Shake his body with inner strength, and shake his spirit with his spirit.
Even a veteran martial artist would suffer a big loss when caught unexpectedly. What's more, it was a group of villagers in Shengyu Village who were already lacking in vitality and spirit.
After some application, the effect is surprisingly good.
The progress of the art of sound attack is due to the mastery of soft energy and the further development and utilization of mental power in recent times.
In addition, after completing Tongjin, Chen Yu found that Roujin was even more powerful in internal training. Perhaps it was related to the fact that his internal organs had been nourished by spiritual liquid for a long time and were stronger than ordinary people. Therefore, he was injured during the tempering of strength.
The situation is far from as easy to happen as stated in "Yunhe Gong".
No matter what happens, you still have some spiritual liquid on your body. Once your internal organs are injured, just find a place where no one is and take a few sips of it, which can greatly speed up the healing process.
The combination of all these factors made his internal training faster and faster. It didn't take long, but the progress was not small. It was worth more than a month of hard training for an ordinary martial artist.
The strengthening of the internal organs made Chen Yu think more about sound attacks. Originally, the trembling between his lips and tongue always had limitations, and he could not reach it with all his strength.
He changed his mind and wanted to make it easier for the internal organs to exert force after internal training to cooperate with the mouth and tongue.
In this way, the power of the sound attack can be further improved.
Chen Yu attaches great importance to this technique. It is his first Dao-protecting technique besides "Yunhe Kung". Although it is a bit crude in comparison, it is assisted by spiritual power and has natural abilities that are difficult to defend against.
characteristics, so its importance in actual combat is somewhat exceeded.
"You need to have more mental strength."
Otherwise, it will become a dry howl. The sound is enough, but it loses the miraculous effect of shocking people.
…
One night passed, there was no curfew in Tongqian City, so the Hongguzi Street next to it was bright and bright all night long, and there were many people walking in and out of the city, arm in arm.
On the street, there were more drunken fools. Some people were yelled and dragged out, punched and kicked, and then ran away in despair. As they ran, they turned around and cursed, and no one knew who was inside.
As for the reason for this, I can only think of two words, one is Boxi, and the other is Huancai.
There are so many wonderful things in the world, but these two things are the most fascinating and cost people money, making it difficult for people to give up and indulge in them.
This is especially true in Huaguzi Street. Some people become rich overnight, while others are heavily in debt in an instant.
What's more, there are also five-stone powder, aphrodisiac and other items passed down from the previous dynasty, which are intoxicating and hard to part with.
The red girl is graceful, the silk and bamboo are luxuriant.
It was so uncomfortable, and it was famous throughout Guangyong Mansion.
Together with the Red Street in Songcheng, Taiding Prefecture, it is also known as the Holy Land of Romance, and its name is so resounding that even other major prefectures have heard of it.
Chen Yu knew a thing or two about these things, but he was not in detail, and he was not even interested. As we all know, pornography, gambling and drugs are absolutely unacceptable.
And in a small alleyway, all three of them are occupied.
The next day, he got up early, washed briefly, went downstairs, and spent ten cents to buy a drawer of vegetable buns. The dough was thin and tender, and the tender cabbage was wrapped inside, which was steaming hot.
While eating, he rushed out of the city.
As he was walking, a figure suddenly rushed out and bumped into him.
Bang! The opponent was knocked out.
Chen Yu was stunned for a moment. Only when he was groaning in pain did he realize that he was a half-grown child. His hair was hanging casually in front of his forehead and it was a mess. His clothes were neat, but the clothes on his upper and lower body obviously didn't match, giving him a weird feeling.
The other party also seemed a little surprised,
Chen Yu calmly pinched his money bag and found that the string was loosened, and a lot of the copper and silver inside were exposed.
The corners of his lips curled up.
Good boy, you stole it from me.
As his thoughts turned, he saw Chen Yu gently bending down to pull the other person up. While waving his hand to signal, he asked eagerly whether he was injured due to the collision.
Knead it back and forth with both hands, gently.
The young man felt a little numb in his chest, but he knew that the person in front of him was not easy to mess with, so he put on an honest face and said calmly:
"No...it's okay, I was just being reckless."
The two of them separated, Chen Yu looked back, turned around with a slight smile.
Hey, okay? That's not necessarily the case.
Gentleness is changeable and can do many things that strength cannot, such as right now.
In short, no matter what, today will definitely be an unforgettable night for the other party.
There is no big problem, but you still have to suffer some pain.
Wish him sweet dreams.
…
After leaving the city, my ears were much cleaner, and the hustle and bustle of shopping was no longer distant.
The previous incident was just a small episode, and was quickly forgotten by Chen Yu. He did not stop, but walked straight on the road, heading straight towards Pingcheng.
