Ask the Mirror Chapter 119: Tianyi
lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Asking Mirror!
The cliff city is very prosperous during the day, and it has become even more unusual recently.
Due to the turmoil in the Sky Rift Valley, a considerable number of people living in villages outside the city swarmed into the city, causing the city's population to increase by more than 20%. And because the follow-up protection was relatively effective, the situation in the city was stable, and the market became extremely prosperous.
Yu Ci leaned on the railing and looked into the distance. Under the rare warm sun in winter, the city was bustling with people, flowing through the streets and alleys of the old and new cities. The shadow of the mountain wall cuts obliquely, dividing the light from darkness. At this moment, the clear light changes are obviously more vivid than the vague sound.
Because where Yu Ci is now, is on the top floor of Tianyi Tower in Cliff City.
Tianyi Tower is located at the edge of the new city of Cliff City, backed by a high cliff.
The building is called a building, but it is actually a platform extending from a thousand-foot cliff. On the left and right sides are curved ring-shaped suspended corridor bridges. Where the corridor bridges gather together is the main building of the Tianyi Tower. The structure is only four floors, but it hangs two hundred feet in the air, leaning against the high cliff and catching the clouds and mist. It has a unique design. Facing the entire cliff city and overlooking the scenery, it makes people feel at ease.
The overall layout of Tianyi Tower is like an eagle with its head raised and wings spread. The covered bridges on both sides are the wings, and the main building is the head and neck. There are clouds and mist outside. Looking from a distance, it really feels like an eagle striking the sky.
This sky-wing tower is built suspended in the air. It is the largest project in Cliff City in more than 100 years. There is also a story in it. It is said that this building was built on the high ground of the new city in order to compete with the Danya Mansion of Bairi Mansion before the Wanling Sect was driven out of Cliff City. Its height is exactly half a foot higher than the tallest building on Danya, which means "overwhelming one end".
However, it is ironic that less than a year after the building was built, Jin Huan invited Shi Song and Hu Dan, two masters of the Wanling Sect, to fight. After the First World War, Wanling Sect sadly gave up all the resources in Cliff City and its surroundings, went far away, and operated miserably on the periphery. This Tianyi Tower became the property of Bairi Mansion, and it remains to this day.
The Yibao Banquet in eight days will be held on the top floor of Tianyi Tower.
In the past few decades, the top floor of Tianyi Building has not been easily open to the outside world. Only the top 20 or 30 people in the city have been qualified to come up, or to entertain important guests and hold important activities, such as Yibao this time A banquet.
At this time, Yu Ci was the only one on the top floor of Youda, surrounded by the lush Yunzhu Garden. On the viewing platform, green bamboos are planted at random to form a natural screen, which is also full of life and interest.
The fish and dragon were circling and flying in the small bamboo forest, and in a blink of an eye they jumped out of the fence, dotted with tall buildings and clouds.
Just as Xie Yan arranged, Yu Ci really didn’t have any specific affairs before the Yi Bao Banquet started. Every day, I just used the spirit control method to feed the ichthyosaur with my own vitality. Slowly, the skin on the little guy's body became shiny and shiny, and he was full of energy. As a result, he became more and more attached to him, and he had long forgotten what was happening before him. This is the chief culprit who caused them to lose their freedom, and they cannot be driven away.
Staring at this lively little thing swimming nimbly in the helpless void, Yu Ci was quite envious. He recalled Xie Yan's conclusion two days ago:
"Has he ever told you about his own 'Tao'? Definitely not, because he has lost his own 'Tao' a long time ago. How can this idiot even give him a golden bone and a jade plate?" Guaranteed, he can seize the opportunity?"
Two days later, Yu Ci still remembered Xie Yan's expression of hatred for steel.
"The Way of Fish and Dragon actually reflects the consistent spirit of the Reality Department, which is to capture the good laws of the world and use them to seek to improve one's realm as quickly as possible and obtain the reality of immortality. However, it was only used by someone as a matter of choice. Tao, use it if it benefits me and abandon it if it doesn't benefit you. Although it is extreme and ruthless, it is a real path. Compared with that person, he is far inferior, far inferior!"
Who is that person? Yu Ci didn't dare to ask. However, he understood some truth from Xie Yan's words: It is difficult to understand just those vague "Tao", but if it is replaced by "idea", he almost understands it.
It is precisely because of the lack of this kind of thing that his Yin Shen has been unable to be finalized. But is there any reason to throw away this 'Tao' and this 'idea'?
Shaking his head, Yu Ci shifted his gaze back to the fish dragon. Even Xie Yan agreed with the "Way of Fish and Dragon", which seemed to have some research value. However, after spending the past few days together, Yu Ci really didn't feel any sense of "choice" from the little thing, but she really felt that this guy He is an extremely greedy big eater.
In his opinion, fish and dragons are absorbing vitality from the outside world without restraint at all times, turning all of it into nutrients that promote the growth of the body. They can only enter but not exit, just like a bottomless abyss. Throw a big stone and you won't even hear the sound.
Because he had to feed this guy with his own vitality, Yu Ci's rapid progress in cultivation after becoming a Yin Shen was dragged down to almost nothing by it.
However, after several days of breeding, Yu Ci and the ichthyosaur also developed some feelings. It was like a sacrificial magic weapon. They could give some simple instructions to the ichthyosaur within a limited range. The ichthyosaur may not All can be complied with, but the impact is obvious. This is one of the functions of the "spirit control method" that Xie Yan gave him, although it is useless.
Eight days later, Yulong will belong to Suixin Pavilion.
At this time, someone came up from the stairs. With a cautious attitude, he stepped on the plush carpet and made almost no sound.
"I am immortal."
Yu Ci turned around and saw Geng Fu, the deacon of Bairi Mansion who was in charge of running the Tianyi Building. It was rare that his fat body of more than 200 kilograms could keep his walking voice so low.
There are dozens or hundreds of deacons like Geng Fu in Bairi Mansion, who are responsible for taking care of various properties in Cliff City and are equivalent to shopkeepers. It can't be called a cultivator in itself, but more like ordinary people, marrying wives, having children, and earning money to support their families in the city.
Because of this, Geng Fu actually has no feelings for the "big enemy" in the mansion, and he is also smooth-tempered and greets everyone with a smile. It is quite appropriate for Bairi Mansion to push him out. Yu Ci had been staying at Tianyi Tower for the past two days, and he had almost become Yu Ci's housekeeper. He ran back and forth, and he was doing his best.
"Yu Xianchang, this is the list you want."
Geng Fu still had that extremely humble smile. He took out the list and basic information of the monks who had poured into the city in recent days. They were compiled by Bai Ri Mansion by asking whether they would participate in the Yi Bao Banquet. After summarizing Leave it in his hands.
Yu Ci had a wrong impression before, that is, Cliff City is an "isolated island" between the Duanjie Mountains and the Sky Rift Valley, and is an almost completely isolated city-state. Now he understands that in the eyes of monks in this world, the vast mountains and wilderness that stretch thousands of miles are actually nothing, especially when there is excitement to join in, treasures to see, and bargains to pick up, all kinds of things from the three mountains and five mountains. The characters all appeared.
The list shows that in the past month, the number of monks with spiritual cultivation and above in Cliff City has increased by thirty or forty. Most of them came for the Yi Bao Banquet, and the remaining few stayed behind after hearing the news, preparing to join in the fun.
From a security perspective, Yu Ci does not welcome such people, which affects the limited protective power of Cliff City. Moreover, there is a mixed bag of good and bad people here. It is not ruled out that someone is eyeing the treasure brought by the Suixin Pavilion caravan. , want to get a vote.
Yu Ci didn’t think so much at first, but news came yesterday that the caravan in Sui Xin Pavilion encountered a group of robbers. They were so powerful that many people in the caravan were seriously injured, but there were no treasures they brought. loss.
The robbers in the spiritual world!
Yu Ci found that he had to lower his overall expectations for the spiritual world again, which did not seem to be much different from the ordinary world he had seen during his twelve years of wandering.
With emotion, he read the list carefully. Bai Rifu was not lazy. There was a concise introduction behind each person, so that he could have a general understanding of the characteristics of the visitor. Of course, such detailed preparation may be because the list will eventually be sent to Xie Yan.——Yu Ci That's what Xie Yan said, and Xie Yan didn't deny it.
While watching, I suddenly heard a cry.
"Ichthyosaurus!"
Loud shouts came straight up from downstairs. I don’t know who discovered the ichthyosaur swimming in the air and screamed out of control.
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure climbed over the railing on the third floor and rushed up.
Yu Ci frowned, but there was a sudden light on the outside of the fourth floor. This was a prohibition imposed at the beginning of the building's construction, to distinguish the top floor from the three floors below, and to differentiate them into different grades. However, this kind of prohibition is only symbolic, and it is a typical way to guard against gentlemen but not against villains. The visitor laughed, easily broke through the outer barrier, crossed the top fence, and jumped into the Yunzhu Garden.
The fish and dragon were frightened, crashed into the bamboo screen and hid.
The posture of the person who jumped up was very casual, and there was no self-consciousness about coming uninvited. He looked at the exquisite scenery of Yunzhu Garden and clicked his tongue: "No wonder this place is sealed tightly. It turns out to be a really good place... Hey, is that fish and dragon yours? Make a price and we can buy and sell easily!"
The visitor's eyes finally moved to Yu Ci's face. At this time, Yu Ci was still sitting leaning against the railing, with no change in his expression. Seeing the face and temperament of the person who came, and the clothes he was wearing, he looked a bit exotic, so he checked with the list:
"Sha Cong?"
The visitor was startled: "Do you recognize me?"
Yu Ci smiled slightly, but before he responded, someone laughed at the stairs: "Lao Sha, you don't act like a guest when you come in without telling me."
While talking, this person who also came uninvited left the bamboo screen and walked over slowly. He is of medium build, fair-skinned, and always smiles on his face, making him indisputable. What's more peculiar is that he is wearing a black robe, but he is holding a plump lion cat in his arms. The big cat's snow-white fur contrasts with the black clothes, which is really eye-catching.
Seeing this person's image, Yu Ci didn't even need to look at the list. He was quite impressed by being the number one above:
"Zhao Zi said."
"Meow!"
The big cat on the visitor's arm meowed softly, and then yawned. The eyes that were narrowed to a slit were shining with lights of different colors, one yellow and one blue.
