Chapter 321 Going to the Southern Region and Meeting a Drunkard
There is a long distance between the Northern Wasteland and the Southern Territory. With Chen Qingyuan's traveling speed, even with the help of large teleportation arrays in various places, it would take at least several years.
The universe is vast, and there are teleportation arrays set up between each star field, which are controlled by the top forces in each place. You only need to pay enough spiritual stones to take advantage of them.
Two years passed in the blink of an eye, and Chen Qingyuan gradually arrived at a borderland in the Northern Wilderness. Further forward, it was the Sea of Chaotic Stars. After crossing the Sea of Chaos, he could reach the Southern Territory.
The risk factor for the god-transforming monks who want to cross the chaotic star sea is too great.
The safest way is to spend spiritual stones and follow the caravan.
Slightly larger caravans have merchant ships that can withstand the laws of chaos, and rarely encounter danger.
The borderland of Northern Wasteland, Yuanjie City.
There is a mixture of fish and dragons, and there are many masters lurking there.
In a place like this, even the first-rate monks would not dare to act recklessly and act in a low profile.
Chen Qingyuan changed his appearance, covered his aura with a jade bracelet, and slowly walked into Yuanjie City.
If you don't hide your identity, you could easily get into big trouble.
Chen Qingyuan gave the city gate entrance fee of 100 yuan of high-grade spiritual stones to the guard at the city gate.
Converted into low-grade spiritual stones, it amounts to one million.
The poor are not even qualified to enter the city.
Therefore, many ordinary monks gathered outside Yuanjie City, which was equivalent to a slum.
After entering the city, you will be protected by Yuanjie City. As long as you are not seeking death, nothing will happen to you. In addition, only after entering the city can you obtain various information and resource channels in the city.
"The Baihai Chamber of Commerce is very famous. Let's see if we can get a ride."
Chen Qingyuan wore a dark black robe, his appearance changed, and his aura was very ordinary.
After some screening, I chose Baihai Chamber of Commerce.
So, Chen Qingyuan went to the base of Baihai Chamber of Commerce and discussed with a person in charge.
Three thousand high-grade spiritual stones can be used to travel to the Southern Region with the Chamber of Commerce.
This price is several times higher than other chambers of commerce.
However, the Baihai Chamber of Commerce has a high reputation, so it is acceptable.
"We will leave in one month and we will not wait if we are late."
The person in charge collected Chen Qingyuan’s spiritual stone and gave him a token to accompany him.
In the remaining days, Chen Qingyuan found a better place to stay in the city. The spiritual stones he needed every day were as high as fifty high-grade spiritual stones, which was more exaggerated than robbing money.
Fortunately, Chen Qingyuan has a strong family background. If it were an ordinary practitioner, how could he withstand the hardships? He probably would not be able to earn so many spiritual stones in his lifetime.
"I wonder if the second uncle has shown up."
Sitting cross-legged in the temporary cave, Chen Qingyuan thought about his second uncle.
During this period, Chen Qingyuan encountered not only a thousand but also eight hundred beggars.
"Let it go!"
Chen Qingyuan no longer deliberately searched for it. If he was really in danger, his second uncle would definitely show up to help.
In order not to cause trouble, Chen Qingyuan stayed indoors this month and did not go anywhere.
Today, Baihai Chamber of Commerce is preparing to leave for the Southern Region.
Chen Qingyuan arrived early in the morning and entered a cabin located in the corner under the arrangement of the person in charge.
After a while, more than a dozen people came.
Although the space in the cabin is not big, you can still move around.
Everyone was wary of each other, and few people spoke.
Chen Qingyuan closed his eyes and meditated, giving everyone a feeling that no strangers should be allowed in. He was very cold and difficult to get along with.
Crossing the chaotic star sea, the merchant ship would shake a few times from time to time, making it difficult to stay calm for a long time.
After a long time, the merchant ship finally returned to stability, which also meant that it was getting closer to the Southern Territory.
"I'm very lucky, I didn't encounter a big star storm."
Half a year later, a person in charge of the caravan came and said that it would arrive in the Southern Region in a few days, so that everyone could prepare to disembark.
Of course, if you are willing to pay more spiritual stones, you can go with the caravan to the prosperous areas.
Several monks added money, but Chen Qingyuan did not.
The purpose of coming to the Southern Region this time is to take a stroll, gain experience and find the person who belongs to the mysterious box at the same time. There is no need to go directly to the prosperous place.
When getting off the boat, Chen Qingyuan heard some people from the chamber of commerce talking and paused.
"Buddha Dongtu has been standing at the mountain gate of Lihua Palace for five years."
"It is said that Buddhism and Ewha Palace have an old grudge. What does the Buddha's move mean? Do you bow your head?"
"Buddha wanted to see the Holy Master of Ewha Palace, but was rejected. He refused to give up. He has been waiting for five years and has not left yet."
The Baihai Chamber of Commerce has a wide range of information channels, and I have already learned a lot of things when I first arrived in the Southern Territory.
After hearing this news, Chen Qingyuan slowly walked off the merchant ship without changing his expression.
It wasn't until there was no one around that Chen Qingyuan's face showed a strange color, and he murmured: "What are you doing, Buddha?"
Chen Qingyuan could not guess what Fozi would do for the time being.
Anyway, I have arrived in the Southern Region, and I will definitely meet Fozi in the future. I will ask him directly when the time comes.
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Chen Qingyuan looked around several times. They were all deserted land with no human habitation.
After walking for several days, there was a city ahead.
"Go in and take a look."
This place is relatively remote, and most of the people living here are ordinary people.
Both sides of the street are full of vendors, selling all kinds of things, and it is extremely lively.
"Wangchun Tower."
Stopping at the door of a restaurant, Chen Qingyuan planned to go in and have a drink.
Although it is ordinary wine, it has a unique taste.
I found a corner spot and bought two bottles of sake and some snacks.
I took a sip of the wine and it didn't taste very good.
Chen Qingyuan is not picky and drinks slowly.
"Brother, do you want to buy me a drink?"
Suddenly, a middle-aged man with a beard on his face sat opposite Chen Qingyuan, looking familiar.
Looking at the person in front of him, Chen Qingyuan did not feel the fluctuation of spiritual energy.
At the same time, many people in the restaurant looked at him with disdain in their eyes and whispered to each other.
Chen Qingyuan used Taoism to hear everyone's comments clearly, and learned the identity of this middle-aged man and where he was.
This city is a border town of the Southern Chu Kingdom. The middle-aged man is Huang Xingyan, a well-known drunkard and old man nearby.
Logically speaking, Wangchun Restaurant does not welcome such guests. However, Huang Xingyan has some fists and kicks, so the restaurant can't do anything about him, and reporting it to the government is useless.
Therefore, Huang Xingyan often ate and drank in restaurants and gained a bad reputation.
The Southern Chu State is an affiliated force of a certain sect, and every year it needs to offer beautiful women and various rare things in order to seek protection.
"Why should I buy you a drink?"
In a few breaths, Chen Qingyuan had figured out Huang Xingyan's origin.
With Chen Qingyuan's eyesight, he can see that Huang Xingyan is not a villain, but even a righteous person. Why does such a person have such a bad reputation?
"I see that your brother is so majestic and has an outstanding temperament. He must be a rare hero in the world. Just by looking at him, I know that I am destined to be with him. How can I not drink and talk freely if I am so lucky?"
Huang Xingyan said similar words dozens or hundreds of times. Whenever he saw a stranger, he would use this trick to coax him to get a few drinks.
