Building a sect from scratch

Du Cihuai took his junior sister Ling Xuan to the Taiyin Sect's headquarters in a familiar way, and then teleported to Chang'an City through the teleportation array.

As soon as he came out of the teleportation array, what came into view was a huge red flag. Behind the flag swaying in the wind, a very tall building could be seen. The architectural style is strange, consisting of white walls, red columns, and blue tiles. It is majestic and majestic, standing in the distance like a towering mountain.

Such a distant view, coupled with the flags standing at the city gate, would have been a very serious scene, but...

The pattern of this flag is a bit special. On the red cloth, there is a golden, crooked and messy line. On the left side of the line is a five-pointed star of the same color.

Du Cihuai saw Lingxuan looking at the flag in a daze, scratched his head, and introduced: "This is said to be called the 'Shenglong Brother (Shenglong Hiccups) Flag'. It is the flag of their Chang'an commune. The two round ones are The dot in the middle is the eye, the top is the two horns, and the four short lines below are the claws. It looks like a dragon, so it’s called this.”

"What a weird name, um... it looks weird too."

"It's okay. You'll know after you've been here for a long time. They're all pretty good, but they're always acting weird and won't walk properly. By the way, since you're coming to Chang'an City, you must try duck and duck. Milk tea from a milk tea shop!”

As Du Cihuai said, he took Ling Xuan to a simple shop near Jingqi to line up. The shop looked shabby on the outside, but the queue was several meters long, and it seemed to be very popular.

"Yucky Milk Tea Shop?"

"It's a milk tea shop opened by a fellow Taoist. It sells all kinds of drinks. I heard that they also serve dim sum recently, so I'd like to bring you over to try it together this time!"

Du Cihuai introduced: "And that one over there is a hot pot restaurant. There are always a lot of people, but it doesn't open at this time. The Taoist friend who opens the hot pot restaurant is very lazy and only opens at noon every day! Also! There is a restaurant that sells pan-fried buns, and the one next to it is a barbecue restaurant. The barbecue restaurant is similar to a hot pot restaurant, and it only opens in the afternoon and evening. Although the houses in this area are quite shabby, they are all prime shops! And I heard that preparations are already underway for renovation. It will be renovated and rebuilt soon, and a food street will be built at the city gate to facilitate their 'getting started'!

"Junior sister, you still don't know what 'Xiaben' means, right? There is an illusion in the Han Pond across the way. After entering, you can randomly encounter the lower-level demons in the Nine Netherworlds. It is said that that place is a Nine Netherworlds. The Taiyin disciples guard this passage in this way. "

Ling Xuan listened with great interest, but she couldn't help but complain: "Senior brother, you... you seem to have only come here once, right? Why do you feel like you are almost back at home?"

Du Cihuai said proudly: "Don't tell me, I actually bought an apartment in Chang'an City! The price is not expensive, the cheapest 'apartment' only costs a dozen spirit stones! Better townhouses are A hundred spirit stones are equivalent to the price of a low-grade yellow-level spiritual weapon, which is a great deal!”

"So cheap!?" Ling Xuan was shocked for a moment, and then asked doubtfully: "Wait a minute, what is an off-plan house? What are 'apartments' and townhouses?"

"For an off-plan house, you first sign up to raise funds, build a house based on the registration status, and then you have to wait for a period of time to receive the house. An 'apartment'... is a house with several floors, with many rooms on each floor, and the sale is "

"What can I do with a room, just put up a bed to sleep on?"

"No, no, no, it's true, but a room in an 'apartment' is not just a bedroom like our sect's disciple room, but a room made up of many partitions, and the space is very large!"

"What about the townhouse?"

"Well, that's a small townhouse!"

Du Cihuai pointed to a row of unique and simple houses in the distance and said.

It still has white walls and green tiles with red pillars. It looks majestic and simple, but the style is different from anything Ling Xuan saw in Guangcheng Zong.

"Is this also the case that one household lives in each house?"

"Of course not. Have you looked at the courtyard door? Each courtyard door corresponds to a household, and the entire three floors upstairs are together!"

"That's really cheap!"

Ling Xuan, who said this, had long forgotten that in a mortal town, a whole courtyard house only cost a dozen taels of silver.

"That's right! And I've inquired about it. There is a mountain protection formation here in Chang'an City. It's very safe! After buying milk tea, I will take you to apply for a temporary residence permit and an identity jade badge. Without these two, it is very inconvenient. of!"

"Temporary residence permit? Identity badge?"

"The identity jade token is a token given to register your identity when entering the city. It proves your legal qualifications to enter and exit Chang'an City. It has no other purpose. The temporary residence permit refers to the permit for temporary residence in Chang'an City. In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't apply for it, but if you do, In the future, you will be able to enjoy various benefits of Chang'an City, such as free public transportation...well, although we monks won't be able to use it, and free borrowing qualifications from the library. The library is a huge collection of books in Chang'an City. The pavilion contains hundreds of volumes of practice secrets and explanations of various techniques, and there are even more books of various kinds, totaling more than a thousand, and it is said that the number is still increasing!"

This time, Ling Xuan was really surprised: "Hundreds of books of practice secrets and explanations of techniques!?"

"Yes, it's completely free! I didn't expect it! But they are all low-level ones. It's okay to use them if they are below the Golden Core stage. Although there are many ones above the Golden Core stage, they are not public. You have to apply based on your cultivation level."

Ling Xuan looked tangled: "But this... Aren't they afraid of being stolen?"

Du Cihuai said with admiration: "I asked this question, and they said, 'Only communication can create value'. If it weren't for the fact that the cultivation secrets and spells above the Jindan stage are too dangerous, I'm afraid they would make all the secrets public!"

The two chatted, and it was their turn soon.

"Hello, senior, I want a cup of honey peach green, full sugar and ice, junior sister, which one do you want to try?"

"I..." Ling Xuan looked at the dazzling menu on the counter, hesitated again and again, and decided to try the taste of her senior brother: "I also want a cup of honey peach green!"

"Then two cups of honey peach green, both full sugar and ice! Trouble senior!"

Ling Xuan looked at Du Cihuai strangely, and was a little confused about her senior brother's polite attitude.

The two had been in the same school for many years and had a tacit understanding. Du Cihuai whispered in secret: "This employee of this milk tea shop is a thousand-year-old demon! His Taoism is amazing!"

"Thousand-year-old... demon!?"

Ling Xuan's eyes widened, her eyes full of disbelief.

"That's right! And if you see a cat that hasn't transformed yet and stops you and talks to you when you enter the city later, you must be careful, because it's the head of the Chang'an City! There are many demon cultivators in Chang'an City!"
