The night passed quietly, and the two women regarded Niu Xiaosheng as a "shortcut" to their spiritual practice. However, they waited outside for most of the night and did not get the summons from inside.
Without being summoned, they naturally had to abide by their duties. After all, the rules of Tianzihao House were very strict, and they did not dare to mess around without the permission of the guests.
Boom!
A low rolling thunder made Niu Xiaosheng wake up from his dream. He stood up and walked to the window sill. He saw dark clouds rolling outside, lightning and thunder, and the ferry entered a thundercloud.
From time to time, bolts of lightning struck the ferry, but they were blocked by an invisible shield.
Suddenly, Niu Xiaosheng discovered that a shining thunderball appeared in the clouds, and there was a faint figure in the center of the thunderball. However, the ferry was moving too fast, and before he could take a closer look, it had already rushed out of the thundercloud.
A vast land of mountains and rivers comes into view. Huge peaks rise from the ground, thousands of feet high, and as steep as a knife. From time to time, bursts of roars come from the mountains and forests. The huge sound waves form sound waves visible to the naked eye, moving in all directions.
Shock.
A broad river meanders through the mountain peaks, reflecting the sunlight and sparkling. Suddenly, a giant snake with wings emerges from the river, opens its ferocious mouth, and grabs the sky in one bite.
A huge bird and beast was then dragged into the water.
The country is picturesque and the mountains and rivers are splendid.
The ferry kept flying over the mountains and rivers without seeing any trace of the city. This shows that this land of mountains and rivers is a vast no-man's land.
There was a knock on the concierge, and then two maids, A3 and A4, came in carrying washing utensils.
"This should be beyond the boundaries of Youzhou, right?"
Niu Xiaosheng asked the two women walking over.
Jia San looked out the window, stretched out his hand to pull a strand of hair that fell on his cheek to his ear, shook his head and said, "Not yet, we will arrive in Jizhou by evening."
This ferry takes this route all year round, and the two of them naturally know the way after they have been on the boat for a long time.
The speed of the ferry was no slower than that of an airplane. After sailing in the sky all night, it had not yet left the boundary of Youzhou. This gave Niu Xiaosheng a new understanding of the territory of Chu State.
After eating a sumptuous breakfast, a tall maid came here with a gust of fragrant wind. Her soft and close-fitting dress showed off her graceful figure to the fullest.
"Sister Jiayi, why are you here?"
Jia San saw the person coming and hurriedly greeted him.
A1 holds A3's hands and smiles: "Is Mr. Niu in there?"
"exist."
"Is it my master who is looking for me?"
Niu Xiaosheng came out and asked.
Ayi bowed to Niu Xiaosheng and said, "Yes, Mr. Chen wants you to come over immediately."
"Let's go."
Niu Xiaosheng waved to Xiaoman and led her towards Chen Pan's room. After staying in the room for so long, he got tired of it and just went out for a walk.
Chen Pan stood at the door. When he saw his apprentice coming, he smiled and waved, "Here you go, I just met a friend last night. Come with me to meet him."
Several people came to a nearby small courtyard. The first-floor Tianzi rooms are not just rooms. There are also some small houses suitable for a family to stay. Of course, the price is more expensive, and tickets may not be available.
At the gate of the small house, a man wearing a purple robe, with a dignified appearance and a jade-like face stood there with a large family.
"Third brother."
Seeing Chen Pan coming, the very tall woman standing next to the man suddenly showed a smile and hurriedly came forward to greet him.
Niu Xiaosheng was stunned when he saw this. He didn't expect that his master's best friend was actually a woman.
His eyes couldn't help but fall on the woman. She had a tall frame, small eyes, wide mouth, and high cheekbones. Her appearance was ordinary and definitely not a beauty, but she had a strong aura, more powerful than the purple-robed man next to her.
Like the head of the family.
The woman was holding a four or five-year-old child in her arms. He was pretty and cute, and he was looking at Niu Xiaosheng with his big round eyes.
Following behind were a gray-haired old woman and a pretty maid. They looked exactly the same, very cold, with no expression at all on their faces.
Then came the purple-robed man and a man and a woman beside him. The man and woman looked young, and both were equipped with swords.
After Chen Pan chatted with the tall woman for a few words, he began to introduce Niu Xiaosheng to her.
"Good boy."
A smile appeared on the woman's face, and she took out a heavy bag and handed it to Niu Xiaosheng, "Uncle, I don't know what you like. There are some yuan in it, so just treat it as a meeting gift."
At this time, such an ordinary-looking woman suddenly turned into a shining golden thigh. Niu Xiaosheng looked at the majestic-looking man in purple robe and suddenly realized something in his heart.
"Thank you, uncle."
He looked like a naughty man and carried a bag. The bag was heavy and made a clear dinging sound. It was estimated that there were more than a hundred yuan in it.
Yuan Qian, as the name suggests, is a coin made of Yuan Stone. It is a currency circulated in the spiritual world. It is widely circulated and is a must-have item for practitioners to go out. Yuan Qian can definitely be exchanged for gold and silver, but gold and silver may not be converted into Yuan.
.
Niu Xiaosheng has never used yuan, but when he was doing business in Yinxu, he knew that one yuan can be exchanged for five Yinxu coins. This shows how amazing the purchasing power of this yuan is. The man in front of him has an average appearance, but he is close to the average person.
My uncle can get a hundred yuan at a time, so he is undoubtedly a wealthy woman.
Later, from the master's mouth, Niu Xiaosheng learned that the woman's name was Gong Zhen. She was the daughter of Gong Qian, the god of wealth in Kyoto and his uncle. She was a six-level soul cultivator. When talking about the Gong family, it can no longer be described as rich and powerful. It can only be described as...
Rich as a country.
Chen Pan and Gong Zhen have known each other since childhood and have been in love like siblings. They often exchange letters. When they meet at this time, there are still endless topics to talk about, but most of them are Gong Zhen's questions and Chen Pan's answers, while the man in purple robe keeps talking.
He stayed by his side and rarely spoke.
Niu Xiaosheng was even less interested in reminiscing between the two, but since everyone was here, he couldn't leave and could only stare at the ground in a daze.
"You senior brothers and sisters are taking the little saint out for a walk. You don't need your company here."
Gong Zhen suddenly said to the man and woman wearing swords.
"Yes, Master."
The two stood up and exchanged words.
Niu Xiaosheng turned to look at Master Chen Pan.
"Go ahead and don't cause trouble."
Chen Pan said with a smile.
After the three people left the small courtyard, they all breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at each other and laughed.
"Junior Brother Niu, is there a place you want to go?"
The speaker was Lu Jian. He and his junior sister Liu Yu were both disciples of the purple-robed man Wang Yi. Moreover, both of them were soul cultivators and had now reached the realm of controlling objects in the three realms.
Niu Xiaosheng shook his head, "No, I just took the ferry for the first time yesterday."
