Chapter 2684 Blue City (2)
The little fairy and her companions drifted away, and Elder Mu Wu also returned to the team to direct people to clean up.
The two caravans each set up their vehicles, adjusted the order of the vehicles, took nearly half an hour to arrange them, and set off in a majestic formation.
Young Master Xuan Yan and Senior Brother Yan Zhenlin observed while flying close to the ground. After flying less than half a mile, they arrived at the bridge between the north and south of the flying bridge.
The bridge is about twenty feet high from the river. The river flows gently, but looking at the traces left after the river bank is soaked in water, it can be seen that it also has a flood season.
After flying over the bridge, we walked for a little more than a mile along the avenue that passed through the shade of trees. We were in a large planting area. Most of the spiritual fields were in the maintenance period and the protective cover was not opened.
Some poor spiritual fields are planted with low-value plants, and no defensive formations are used.
Passing through Lingtian District, we arrived at the south gate of Blue City.
Blue City also has four gates, each with three openings. There is a large square outside the city that can accommodate 200,000 to 300,000 people.
The city gate opens early and closes late. It has been opened. The gatekeepers guarding the city are human race, with the lowest level of cultivation in the late stage of Qi refining.
The three door openings of the south city gate are in principle for entry from the west and exit from the east. The middle door is for people without encumbrances. Residents of the city have waist badges, and they only need to show their badges to represent their identity. Foreigners are taxed.
The management of Blue City is relatively strict. Each person who enters the city gets a pass and three spiritual stones, which can only be used for one month. No tax will be charged when leaving or entering the city within one month.
Yan Shaoxuan handed over the spirit stone and got a green waistband with numbers on it. It felt like going abroad and getting a green card!
After entering the city, there are city defense towers on both sides behind the city gate, and beyond that there is a half-mile wide city defense safety zone, and then there is the residential area.
Blue City is a place where many ethnic groups live together. The houses are of various styles and materials. However, whether they are high-rise stone buildings or wooden buildings, they are all lined up in rows and in an orderly manner. The residents of the city have begun their day's life, and some have
gone They work in manors and spiritual fields, some go to work at work places, some work as vendors, some go out to find work, etc.
Little Loli and her group had just entered the city and hadn't gone far when they saw several groups of people leaving the south gate. They were all low-level monks and ordinary people with no cultivation. They seemed to be going to work in the spiritual fields outside the city.
Blue City is more than one million miles away from the coastline, so it is relatively close to the coastline. It is indirectly affected by some marine tropical climates, so even if it belongs to a continental climate zone, the winter is not too cold.
Ordinary people don't wear much, usually just undergarments, middle coats and outer robes. The outer garments are usually leather jackets or cotton-padded jackets.
Fur coats are made from the hair of ordinary wild beasts. Some mortal families also have monks who use the skins of low-level monsters to make cold-proof robes for their families.
If you didn't see the scenes of fighting and killing, or if you didn't see people with animal heads and human bodies, or people with animal ears, Blue City would not be much different from any other city on earth.
Brother Yan Zhenlin, a local native, has seen many kinds of half-demon or mixed-race people of various races, so he is very calm when he sees half-demon and mixed-race people with human or beast characteristics.
Young Master Xuan Yan had already met people with horse heads in Wanghai City, and he didn't make any fuss when he saw people with other animal heads.
The Chinese New Year will be here in a few days, and all ethnic groups are purchasing what they need for the New Year. As a result, many merchants specializing in New Year business and hoarding goods are also busy.
Blue City is a mixed city. Because monks have families, there are mortals or half-demon who cannot cultivate in each district. Mortals who do not have monks at home live in the Mortal Quarter in the northeast of the city.
There are shops and stalls everywhere in the big city and alleys. There is no shortage of food and supplies.
Le Xiao’s classmate specializes in snacks. Whether it’s fried nuts, barbecued meats, fried noodles or snacks, you can buy them as soon as you smell them.
After walking around a few streets, I almost understood what the local specialties were. Among the local snacks in Blue City, the most delicious is the small shrimp called "blue scale shrimp".
The shell of blue shrimp is blue and the meat is white. It is as big as crayfish on the earth. It does not have big hard claws and the shell is very soft. It can be seen everywhere in the lakes and streams of Blue City. It is best fried and grilled. eat.
The vendors who sell blue shrimp are all mortals. They shell or unshell the shrimps, skewer them, and fry or grill them until they are delicious.
The price is also super cheap, one spiritual stone costs three hundred skewers!
There are fifty in a bunch, only one is big and thick, and the bamboo stick is two and a half feet long.
The price is genuine and the price is genuine.
When a little Loli starts her business, she usually covers a small stall.
Senior Brother Yan Zhenlin: "..."
What can they say?
The nuts and melon seeds used to stir-fry the clams are so delicious that you can’t stop eating them. She makes the snacks herself, which are both delicious and spiritual. They are hundreds of times better than street snacks, but she always likes to eat those made by others. Snacks.
Young Master Yan and Young Master Xuan followed the little Lolita and played happily.
In addition to blue shrimps, ordinary people who do not practice cultivation also make a lot of snacks, such as roasted beef, sheep, pork, chicken, etc., as well as desserts that are fried in pasta and then covered with honey, and there are also desserts made from pasta.
The worlds are different, but human wisdom is the same. In a world of immortal cultivation like Yunlan Realm, ordinary and weak mortals who are like ants in the eyes of monks can still survive by relying on their own wisdom.
The human race is a great race.
Snack vendors on the streets also provide packaging services, either wrapping food in leaves or packaging it in bamboo tubes or wooden boxes.
If you buy a small amount, they are usually packed with leaves. When a certain amount is reached, they are packed in bamboo tubes or wooden boxes. Bamboo tubes or wooden boxes are given free of charge.
There is a take-out service, and Le Xiaoxiao’s shopping is very grand. They buy things in piles, and they buy as much as there is on the stall.
At first, Young Master Xuan and Young Master were still calm, but after walking around three streets, the two brothers couldn't remain calm anymore.
When Xiao Loli once again raided a stall selling blue lobsters, Yan Xing summoned up the courage to remind him: "Little Loli, you have already bought a lot of snacks. How can you eat them all if you buy so much? Just swipe the blue lobsters." There are more than thirty stalls empty, and this one is the thirty-seventh."
"I remember." Le Yun nodded calmly, moved to the stall next to the shop selling clay braised chicken, and said with great pride again, "Brother, I want all the finished products you have here." "Okay
. ! Fairy, we have seventeen portions of the finished product stewed here, and there are ten portions simmering in the stove. If you need it, we will wrap it up for you." The young man in charge of the hawking, with a smile on his face, quickly took out the bamboo basket and filled it with mud
. Braised chicken.
Clay-braised chicken is the beggar's chicken that is well known to all people of all ages in China.
Le Yun nodded. It was only twenty or thirty portions. She would only have a portion that was too little, not too much.
Yan Xing silently swallowed back the words that he wanted to persuade her to save some money. Forget it, little Loli can buy it if she wants. He has to quickly learn to refine weapons and make some finished products to sell. I dropped it and bought a lot of snacks for little Loli.
Xuan Shao quickly took out the spirit stone and paid the bill.
Le Yun didn't stop her either. Men have a good reputation and shouldn't tarnish their reputation on the street. Once they settle down, they can just give the spirit stones to Young Master Xuan and Handsome Yan in private.
Senior Brother Yan Zhenlin also wanted to help pay the bill, but unfortunately, with two monks, Xuan and Yan, there was no chance for them to perform.
While walking around in the market that smelled like fireworks, and after visiting another street, I saw a large group of people pouring out from another side street and going to the main street to take a seat.
The little Lolita and four handsome young men were also "incidentally" taken to a street by the crowd. They simply followed the Romans and stood in the crowd as people eating melons. There were also people from
other streets running to the main street. Soon both sides of the street were full of people. , at a glance, all I could see was the head of Wuhuan Wuhuan.
Lively conversations also ebb and flow with each other.
"Have you heard that the caravan that the Mu family went to Wanghai City is back!" "
It's impossible. Calculating the distance, no matter how fast they are, it will only take them one or two years to return from Wanghai City. No Maybe they will come back so soon."
"It's true, they are back, and Chen Shichu entered the city."
"Yes, it's true! A girl from my next-door neighbor's house was also in that caravan. The neighbor's family also received the news. The whole family stopped doing business and closed the shop and went to Mu's house."
"Oh, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. The Mu family's caravan has returned from Wanghai City. It must have brought back a lot of fruit shells. The Blue City is lively now." "No! I will queue up at the Mu family store tomorrow morning. I hope I
can I grabbed one or two kilograms of shells."
"Let's go together. I'm going too. My child was injured last time he was hunting and hasn't recovered yet. It would be great if he could eat some shells to recuperate." "
... ..."
People crowded onto the main street, discussing enthusiastically, and looking longingly at the other end of the main street.
After waiting for a full two-quarters of an hour, I heard enthusiastic calls from the other end, shouting "Coming, coming" and "The Mu family caravan is coming."
There are also carefree little children jumping and shouting "Gel bagels!"
That enthusiasm is no less than the pursuit of idols by star-chasers on earth.
It was also at this moment that Yan Shaoxuan realized the value and popularity of the fruit shells. Blue City and Wanghai City were only millions of miles apart, but those who were separated by tens of millions of miles, hundreds of millions of miles or tens of billions of miles away In this place, I don’t know how rare fruit shells are.
The noise at the other end of the street became louder and louder. In the space of a cup of tea, amidst the continuous "Come on, come on" sounds from the crowd in front, the Mu family's caravan appeared at the end of the street.
The pioneer team of the Mu family caravan walked in front carrying the flag of the family team, followed by a string of carriages, and the team was very long.
This time the merchant almost died on the way. It was a great blessing to escape death. Everyone in the Mu family caravan couldn't help but be excited to return to Blue City so soon.
People on the street watched the Mu family's caravan approaching, and people often asked them how many shells they brought back, whether they had any deep-sea spiritual plants, or any deep-sea jade or mines.
The people in the Mu family caravan greeted people warmly and answered loudly, saying yes if they had it and no if they didn't. They also told how many shells they had brought back.
They gave a conservative figure, deducting the portion that their family wanted to keep, and widely advertised the number of fruit shells that could be sold outside.
The Mu family has spent a lot of money this time, hoarding a total of more than a billion kilograms of fruit shells and reserving some for other arrangements. It is estimated that 500 million kilograms will be sold first, because some of them will be sold to the family that cooperates with them, and the external price is said to be 400 million kilograms. catty.
The crowd watching the Mu family caravan on the street were greatly surprised when they heard that they had brought back more than 400 million kilograms of fruit shells. There were so many fruit shells. Mortals who wanted to eat fruit shells this time should be able to buy one and a half kilograms. !
