You are ruthless, really helpless

Chapter 29

Silent all night.

When Jiang Li woke up, he saw Xu Zhibai sitting by the window, with dark clouds twining between his brows, and a slightly sad expression.He put one hand on the window sill, which was wrapped with a thick layer of white cloth.

Xu Zhibai didn't know what he was thinking, when he heard the sound of footsteps, he stood up hastily, and put his hand behind his back, trying to cover it up.

Jiang Li's gaze swept over lightly.

Xu Zhibai said uncomfortably, "I was accidentally injured during my practice last night..."

Jiang Li didn't ask any further questions, but only smiled and said: "Be careful in the future."

Xu Zhibai breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, yes."

Jiang Li pushed the gap of the window wider and looked down.

Passing through the sea of ​​misty clouds, the snow scene in the north gradually fades away, turning into a vast expanse of whiteness.

Even Wangshu Peak, which pierces the sky, is just a long and narrow line, which cannot be seen clearly.

Look further south.

A piece of blue waves can be vaguely seen, and the wind blowing on the face carries a sense of salty and wet sea.

Xu Zhibai said: "I don't think it will take long to reach the shore of the South China Sea."

Jiang Li twirled his hair and turned it gently: "It's easy to get to the South China Sea, but it's hard to find the Tianya Haijiaolou here."

Tianya Haijiao Building is located in the extreme south of the South China Sea, facing the mainland far away across the vast ocean.

It is said that the Tianya Haijiao Tower is carried on the back of a tortoise, which usually dives under the sea. Every hundred years, the tortoise will emerge from the water to breathe.At this time, only ten sun and moon shells can be offered to the tortoise before they can enter the building.

The sun and moon shells are rare treasures under the sea, and only when the sun and moon shine together, the pearl shells emit light, can one be born.

This item is already rare, and with the addition of the Tianya Haijiao Tower, it is even more rare, and now it is hard to find on the black market.

After Xu Zhibai listened carefully, he said: "This is not a problem. In the inheritance, there is the treasure house of the Shang Qingzong, which has a rich heritage. If I can find a few sun and moon shells, I will give them to you first."

Jiang Li rolled his eyes and pretended to refuse, "After all, this is your inheritance, so it's not good for me to use it?"

Xu Zhibai frowned, and said righteously: "You and I come from the same school, and we should support each other. What you said is too out of line." He was afraid that Jiang Li would not want it, so he immediately took out a handful of sun moon shells and stuffed them In the past, "Even if the teacher knew about it, he would only be relieved, why would he blame him?"

The shell of the sun and the moon is no more than the size of a palm, warm and moist, exuding glistening water vapor, falling in Jiang Li's arms and tinkling, the melody is melodious, like fairy music.

Xu Zhibai: "You can accept it with peace of mind."

Jiang Li hesitated, and said, "Then I will be disrespectful."

Xu Zhibai nodded in satisfaction: "That's true."

Jiang Li also smiled slightly, thinking: This meal ticket is worth the money.

……

There are no more waves on the road, and it will be half a month in the blink of an eye.

The flying boat made a rumbling sound and floated above a piece of blue sea.

The people on the boat jumped off the deck impatiently as if they were eating dumplings.I'm afraid that if he is one step behind, the opportunity will fall to his family.

Jiang Li pursed his lips: "Zhibai, let's go down too."

Xu Zhibai nodded.

The two fell from the flying boat together, surrounded by aura, their toes lightly touched the waves, and they didn't touch any waves.

With another breath, he lightly landed on the beach.

wow-

The waves came in waves, and the tide ebbed and flowed, leaving shells all over the place.

Jiang Li became playful, squatted down, and tapped a colorful shell.

Unexpectedly, the shell turned out to be alive. With a slight tremor, it pushed up from below, stretched out six legs, and ran away quickly.

Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, the shell had already run away and disappeared.His cheeks puffed up, obviously very upset.

Seeing his appearance, Xu Zhibai couldn't help shaking his head with a smile.

Sure enough, he is still a child at heart, in the future...he should take care of him more.

"A Li." He called, "Let's advance into the city."

Jiang Li let out an "oh", and looked up to the other side of the beach.

There is a town there called Haizhu City.

It means the pearl of the sea.

The climate in the South China Sea is pleasant, and it relies on the sea to eat the sea. Not only is it rich in spiritual energy and rich in products, but it also has the largest port in the five continents.

The throughput of the port is as high as tens of thousands on weekdays, which is much more lively and prosperous than the nearby towns.

Walking along the beach, it didn't take long to arrive at Haizhu City.

Many businessmen and tourists are waiting at the gate to enter the city.

Jiang Li was at the end of the line and looked around curiously.

In addition to the human monks, there were demon cultivators in the team.

Most of those demon cultivators were born in the South China Sea, with seaweed on their heads or shells on their backs, and their heels could be seen at a glance.

The team moved forward slowly.

After a while, it was their turn.

According to the usual practice, a certain entrance fee must be paid to enter and exit the town. Xu Zhibai was about to pay the fee when the city guard waved his hand: "Haizhu City is not included in the city tax, go in quickly, don't delay others."

Xu Zhibai put away the spirit stone and walked in with Jiang Li.

A noisy voice rang in his ears.

"Deep sea pearl, the finest deep sea pearl!"

"Sea spirit stones can be used for casting and medicine, one of ten spirit stones, if you miss it, you won't have it!"

"There are all kinds of elixir and treasures here, only you can't think of them, and I can't find them if you don't..."

Jiang Li walked on the main road paved with gravel and stopped for a while in front of the booth.

Haizhu City is built by the sea, and the seabed is rich in products. Pearls the size of pigeon eggs are placed on the stalls so brightly, the pearls are shining and charming.

Jiang Li picked up one of them, turned his fingertips slightly, and the brilliance was reflected on the fingertips, and he could clearly feel a strong water aura.

The stall owner said with a smile: "This is a thousand-year-old deep-sea pearl. Such a quality is one in a hundred. It is very rare. I think you are a newcomer here, so I will give you a discount. As long as Three hundred spirit stones!"

Jiang Li rolled his tongue and smiled, "Thousands of years?"

The stall owner looked up and saw that the young man was friendly, his face was white and his lips were red, and he looked like a fledgling fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

Why do you feel chills down your spine when you smile?

He subconsciously said, "Two hundred, two hundred is enough."

Jiang Li raised his eyebrows and remained silent.

The stall owner lowered the price again: "One hundred Lingshi, I will send you another exclusive news."

Jiang Li: "Oh? What news?"

The stall owner lowered his voice, and said mysteriously: "The Tianya Haijiao Building will open soon, and you need a sun and moon shell to enter. I know where there is a sun and moon shell!"

Jiang Li: "If you knew, would you sell pearls here to cheat people?"

The stall owner's expression froze: "You're joking, you're joking, with my cultivation level, how can I fight for the sun and the moon?"

Jiang Li nodded and gave Xu Zhibai a wink.

Xu Zhibai took out the spirit stone and was about to put it up.

The smile on Jiang Li's lips froze.

Why is this man so sincere?

He stopped it with his hand out, took out a few spirit stones, and threw them in front of the stall owner: "Okay, let's talk."

The stall owner: "..."

The stall owner hesitated: "Is this too little?"

Jiang Li: "Too little?" He laughed, "These few Lingshi may not be enough to buy pearls, but they are more than enough to buy fish beads."

The stall owner turned pale.

There is a word difference between Yuzhu and Pearl, but in fact they are very different.

The stall owner pretended to be a fake, presumably to deceive foreigners.

Now that it was punctured, he accepted those few spirit stones in disgrace, not daring to hide them.

The stall owner said: "On this full moon day, a deep-sea secret realm will be opened on the sea, and there is a sun and moon shell in the secret realm."

"It just so happened that the deep sea secret realm was opened before the appearance of the Tianya Haijiao Tower. It can obtain the Sun and Moon Shell without missing a good opportunity."

Jiang Li was thoughtful.

Xu Zhibai asked in a low voice: "Is there something wrong?"

Jiang Li shook his head lightly: "It's nothing."

It's just a bit of a coincidence.

As soon as you enter Haizhu City, there are vendors who know the gossip.

And in this secret realm, it happens that the Sun Moon Shell can be found again, as if it was specially prepared for monks from other places.

People have to give birth to suspicion.

only……

Jiang Li only has seven sun and moon shells in his hand, even if there is a mystery hidden in this secret place, he has to go through this.

……

It will be some time before the Tianya Haijiao Tower appears.

Monks from all directions poured into Haizhu City continuously, making the city very lively.

They all came here for chance, and if they wanted to enter the Tianya Haijiao Building, they had to have the Sun Moon Shell to enter the building.

But sun and moon shells are rare, and when they were distressed, a gossip spread quietly.

——When the moon is full, a secret realm will be opened, and there will be a sun and moon shell in the secret realm.

All of a sudden, there was an uproar.

Almost everyone is buying the elixir, Lingbao, and decides to compete for the Sun Moon Shell in the secret realm.

Jiang Li smiled slightly as he watched the lively scene.

Xu Zhibai was puzzled: "A Li, why did you spread this news all over the city?"

Jiang Li rolled his eyes, and said in a brisk tone: "The secret realm is on the sea, and anyone who is destined can enter it. Instead of hiding it, it's better to give it a convenience for others."

"If I don't get the Riyuebei, I can only say that I have no destiny with Tianya Haijiaolou."

Xu Zhibai couldn't help sighing: "Ah Li is really kind by nature."

Jiang Li smiled subtly: "Natural, natural."

He hummed in his heart.

Why spread the word?

Naturally, it is necessary to stir the water as much as possible, so that the people in the dark can't start.

……

Haizhu City, the City Lord's Mansion.

Among the twelve main cities, the customs of Haizhu City are very different, and the number of monster monks is more than that of the human race, so the city lord is a monster.

Sitting behind the pearl curtain, the city lord could not see his expression clearly, but he could still feel a terrifying coercion.

The people below trembled, bowed their heads and dared not say a word.

After a while, the city lord slowly said, "What are the rumors in the city?"

Those people looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

After some eye contact, one of them raised his head and said, "I followed the order of the city lord and carefully selected the right person to deliver the news..."

From the looks of it, it was a small vendor selling pearls at the gate of the city.

Before he finished speaking, the city lord slapped the table with his palm.

There was a "boom".

The things on the table fell to the ground, and one of them rolled away, outside the pearl curtain.

Daylight cuts through.

That thing looks like Beifei Bei, with the sun and moon shining on it.

It was none other than Riyuebei.

The sun and moon shells, which are hard to come by from the outside world, are piled up in front of the city lord at this time, and they are easily available.

The city lord asked coldly: "How did the news get out?"

The man was trembling, and forced himself to say, "This subordinate doesn't know..."

He racked his brains and couldn't figure out what was going on.

These monks from other places all want to get the Sun and Moon Bay, and they compete with each other. Even if they know the news of the secret realm, they will only hide it and won't tell others.

Then why is it spreading all over the city now.

The city lord glanced sharply.

Everyone was terrified and did not dare to look directly at him.

There was still a bold person who took the initiative to stand up: "City Lord, according to my opinion, the news has already spread and it is difficult to remedy it. Why don't you... first think about how to solve the follow-up problems."

The city lord's eyelids moved, and he nodded slowly: "That makes sense."

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and started talking in a hurry.

"Shouldn't it be time to arrange other back-ups so that so many people don't enter the secret realm?"

"Or do you want to release some more news to interfere with the line of sight?"

"I think it should be..."

Just when the discussion was in full swing, the city lord interrupted their conversation: "Enough."

The city lord waved his hand, and the sun and moon shell that fell on the ground flew up out of thin air and fell into his hands: "You don't have to worry about these."

Everyone: "Yes."

The city lord played with the sun and moon shell: "A distinguished guest is coming, please prepare to welcome him."

Everyone responded again.

It's just strange in my heart, how can such a distinguished guest use the word "welcome"?

……

Another flying boat landed.

The aura surged, setting off a wave.

The residents of Haizhu City have long been accustomed to the strangeness. These days, they have seen eight hundred if not one thousand flying boats.

It's just that today's flying boat seems to have a big background, and many people are waiting to welcome it.

Taking a closer look, the people who greeted him were all the guards of the City Lord's Mansion, and the one standing in the front was the City Lord himself.

The city lord put his hands behind his back and looked up.

When the flying boat came to a complete stop, I saw a white dress descending lightly.

The figure of the visitor is as tall and straight as a pine bamboo, with stern eyebrows and eyes, as if a distant mountain is covered with snow.

The city lord took the initiative to meet him, and greeted him, "I haven't seen you for many years, how are you doing?" He paused, and respectfully said, "——Wangshu Xianjun."

Shen Jiyun nodded slightly, as a greeting.

Compared with the city lord who went out to greet him, Shen Jiyun seemed too indifferent.

It's just that no one present dared to comment.

Because... this is Wangshu Xianjun.

The northern border and the South China Sea are separated by tens of thousands of miles, and it is difficult for ordinary people to see the Cangxue in the northern border in their lifetime, but this does not prevent the name of Immortal Wangshu from spreading to the South China Sea.

The city lord: "Xianjun, I have prepared the elegant courtyard a long time ago, please look forward to Shu Xianjun to live in it."

Shen Jiyun: "Okay."

The city lord said as he walked, "Tonight is the night of the full moon, and mirages will puff up clouds and mist on the sea surface, forming a half-empty and half-real sea secret realm."

"I don't know where the news came out, saying that there is a sun and moon shell in the secret realm of mirage beasts, and many people want to go to find out. It's just that this secret realm is connected with the mirage spit out by mirage beasts, and there are many dangers in it. There is no going back."

"I also ask Xianjun to take action and sit on the seashore, lest they all fall into the mouth of mirage beasts."

Shen Jiyun said concisely: "Yes."

The smile on the city lord's face was even wider: "I am relieved to have the immortal king here. The immortal king is kind and kind, and it is a blessing in the world."

Faced with such flattery, Shen Jiyun was unmoved, not even raising his eyebrows.

After the city lord finished his polite words, he began to test: "Is the Xianjun coming to Haizhu City this time also for Tianya Haijiao Tower?"

Shen Jiyun shook his head.

City Lord: "What is that for?"

Shen Jiyun said lightly: "Looking for someone."

The owner of the city: "Who are you looking for? Not to mention other places, I can call the shots in Haizhu City and send people to help Xianjun find people."

Shen Jiyun's voice was slightly cold, a little blood flashed in his pupils, and he said slowly: "A liar."

City Lord: "...?"

……

Jiang Li sneezed forcefully: "Ah—"

He rubbed the reddened tip of his nose, and there were little crystal tears in the corners of his eyes.

Xu Zhibai was concerned: "Did you catch a cold because of the cold last night?"

Jiang Li blinked: "It's nothing." He casually gave a reason, "Blown by the sea breeze."

Xu Zhibai looked up and down, and after confirming that it was all right, he just looked away: "Tonight is the night of the full moon, it's time to make preparations in advance."

Jiang Li gave a muffled "Hmm" and looked towards the beach.

This secret realm is the net, and the sun and the moon shell are the bait.

Those people had handpicked the fish and wanted to hunt them.

But there are too many fish coming in now, how can this net catch so many fish?

Jiang Li laughed with great interest, looking forward to this scene very much.

After laughing, he felt a tickle on the tip of his nose, as if someone was talking about him behind his back.

Who can talk about him?
