The fairy is fierce

The sweet time is always short. After stopping for a while, you have to continue your journey after all.

On the tenth day of June, in the early morning, it was still drizzling.

In the inn room, Tang Jingxuan sat up with some difficulty, picked up the dress on the bedside and slowly put it on, looking out the window at the Qingdu River from time to time. The little bird dumpling couldn't go out to look for food, so he rolled around on the quilt in boredom, like a small white fur ball rolling around.

Today is another long journey, and everyone else in the inn has already gotten up. Jiang Yi is busy packing her belongings and sending them to the ship. Occasionally, she can see a few familiar figures from the road under the window.

Tang Jingxuan glanced at the window, then there was a knock on the door, then the door opened, and Zuo Lingquan walked in quickly from outside.

Zuo Lingquan changed into a new outfit, wearing a white robe, moiré boots on his feet, an iron sword with a green leather sheath hanging on his waist, and a sword on his back, wrapped in black cloth , it was Mo Yuan who got it in Qingyun City last time. He looked like a knight walking in the world.

Tang Jingxuan sat in front of the dressing table, raised her hand to tie the goose yellow pleated button, and turned to look at the door. Zuo Lingquan quickly stepped back and said apologetically:

"Sister Tang, why did you get up by yourself?"

Tang Jingxun rested for four or five days. Although his body was still very weak, he had no big problem walking around. She tied up her skirt and looked down to make sure there was nothing exposed, then she joked:

"I'm still wearing my clothes. I want to take advantage of my sister. I should have come earlier."

Zuo Lingquan shook his head and laughed, then re-entered the room, came to the bed, and helped pack away the accompanying items:

"The ferry has arrived. It's very big. Da Yanchao has already arranged the room. Jiang Yi and the others will go there and pack it up first. Sister Tang can just get on the boat and stay..."

Tang Jingxuan sat in front of the dressing table, combing her hair with a wooden comb. She was relatively weak and did not get up. She just turned her head and looked at the man helping her pack her luggage, and said with approval:

"Xiao Zuo, you are so handsome in this dress. It looks better than the black robe."

"Really? Senior Wu prepared it, and I think it looks good too.

"Aunt Wu is so kind to you."

"hehe……"

Tang Jingxun didn't have many belongings with him. Apart from the jewelry box containing his lifeblood, he only had a few sets of clothes left.

Zuo Lingquan opened the closet, took out the folded skirts, and put them into a small box. Just as he took out two pieces, he saw several colorful clothes underneath the skirts, embroidered with patterns such as phoenixes, mandarin ducks, and dumplings. It looks like it was embroidered by myself, and the workmanship is exquisite.

Zuo Lingquan paused with his raised hand and glanced at Tang Jingxun who was combing his hair. He was about to put it into the box at lightning speed, but Tang Jingxun remembered this incident and quickly stood up and used his shoulders to put it in the box. Zuo Lingquan squeezed away, picked it up and put it into the wooden box:

"I'd better clean it up, there aren't many things."

Seeing this, Zuo Lingquan naturally didn't help him. He waited until Tang Jingxuan secretly put his underwear under the box, then he stepped forward and hugged the wooden box and jewelry box stacked together, and went downstairs to put the items that Jiang Yi carried with him. Then he ran up and helped Tang Jingxun out of the inn.

When the ferry arrived, the number of monks on Shuanlong Port doubled, and the dock was filled with people boarding the ship, including disciples of large and small sects wearing standard robes.

The Nine Sects Alliance is a channel for outsiders to come ashore. It covers half of Jade Yao Continent. You can imagine how many monks participate.

Although the winter solstice has just officially begun, the preliminary screening has already started last year. Most of the monks at the port came for the Nine Sects Alliance, but among the nine inner sect disciples, only one in ten thousand can be selected, and a few of them can really Once you enter the Nine Sects, you won’t know.

Tang Jingxuan walked under the oil-paper umbrella held by Zuo Lingquan and looked up at the riverside.

A huge ship is moored along the Qingdu River. The ship building is five stories high, and the carved beams and painted lines are very beautiful. The emblem of the Yue Lin Sect on the top of the ship building is probably the size of a building; there are densely packed people on the deck, wearing They were all different, and Tang Jingxun couldn't tell whether he was an ordinary person or a practicing person.

Tang Jingxun was born in the market of Donghua City. He saw a lot of ships coming and going, but this was the first time he saw such a big ship. He looked up at it and asked:

"How did you build this ship? It's too big. I don't think it will be a problem to accommodate thousands of people."

Zuo Lingquan was also surprised when he first saw it in the morning. However, after wandering around Shuanlong Port in the past few days, he had a general understanding of the basic knowledge of practicing Taoism. It was not surprising to see this giant ferry. He explained:

"The ferry goes back and forth between Yunshui Jiantan and Linyuan City. The total journey is more than 24,000 miles. It only makes one round trip a month. The boat is naturally very big. When fully loaded, it can seat more than 3,000 people, but most of them No one has a room, so they can only stand on the deck; the great thing about this ship is not only its size. When we came here in the morning, going upstream from the Qingdu River, the entire ship was directly suspended on the river, just like a ground-effect aircraft... …”

Tang Jingxun naturally didn't understand the meaning of these strange words, so he could only nod his head half-understanding.

The group of people walked around and took a look, and soon boarded the Xianjia ferry built by Zie Yue Lin from the envoy's special passage.

Although it is a fairy ferry, there are no rules against ordinary people on the ferry. As long as you can afford the immortal money, the difference between immortals and mortals is sometimes not so obvious; the ferry is densely packed with people, and many young monks are standing there On the deck and on the observation deck on the top floor of the ship, you can occasionally see a few well-dressed male and female monks. Judging from their demeanor, they are probably serious immortal masters or fairies.

After Zuo Lingquan boarded the ship with the team of envoys, he was taken to the third floor of the ship building. He turned left and right through several corridors and came to a row of rooms with a view of the river along the coast.

Although the environment is nice, the room on the ferry is definitely not as spacious as an inn. It is a single room with simple furnishings. Apart from a bed, a table and chairs, and a futon for monks to meditate, there is nothing else.

Tang Jingxuan walked a long way, felt weak and a little tired, so he entered the room and sat down on the bed.

Zuo Lingquan put his belongings on the table and squatted down to help take off his embroidered shoes:

"Sister Tang, please lie down and rest for a while. If you need anything, just call me and I will come over at any time."

Tang Jingxuan's feet were suddenly held. He was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was doing. He shrank slightly and said with a red face:

"I can just take them off myself. I'm a woman, so I can't let you help me take off my shoes. Just go and do your thing. I can just call you if I need anything."

Seeing this, Zuo Lingquan angrily let go of his soft, boneless feet and stood up:

"Then I'll go out first."

Tang Jingxuan said "hmm", hesitated for a moment, and put the dumpling in Zuo Lingquan's hand:

"You take it out for a walk, otherwise you won't be able to sleep well at night and it will make me unable to sleep."

Tuanzi had been staying at home with Tang Jingxun for the past few days, and he had already gone crazy from holding himself back. He quickly "chichi~" and jumped on Zuo Lingquan's shoulder.

Zuo Lingquan raised his hand and touched it. He didn't look at Tang Jingxuan as he took off his clothes to sleep. He turned around and closed the door from the outside——

The ferry docked at Shuanlong Port. There were many people going out to get some fresh air. Monks chatting in pairs and groups could be seen everywhere in the corridor. Envoys from several small countries also stood at the windows and viewing verandahs to admire the scenery along the river.

As soon as Zuo Lingquan closed the door, he turned around and saw Cheng Jiujiang running over:

"Brother Lingquan, I just took a walk around. There is something interesting in the hall below. Let's go and have a look."

Zuo Lingquan took the ferry for the first time, and he felt it was new. Carrying the plump dumplings, he and Cheng Jiujiang came to the first floor of the ferry building.

There is a hall on the first floor of the ship building. There are many monks standing inside. There is an old man in a robe holding a folding fan. He is saying something in the hall, but no sound can be heard from outside.

Cheng Jiujiang worked as a wild cultivator for a period of time in the past. He never traveled too far, but he took the ferry. He was familiar with the place and took out two white jade bahts for the steward at the door, and took Zuo Lingquan inside.

The hall is quite large. There are probably nearly a hundred monks standing inside. They are generally young and mostly disciples of the sect. There are many young and beautiful fairies among them. However, the pretty ones are all surrounded by their fellow disciples. It is obviously impossible to squeeze through a wall.

With a small dumpling squatting on his shoulders, Zuo Lingquan squeezed in the crowd for a moment and came to a seat near the front of the hall.

There is a water curtain on the stage in front. On the water curtain, there is a scene of two people competing in the ring. The old man holding a folding fan is explaining seriously:

"...This Fulong Fist has enough fire, but it's a pity that the timing is a bit poor. Subduing the Dragon is too early, and someone takes advantage of it after one punch... Good luck with your body skills..."? !

This is……

Zuo Lingquan had a strange expression and opened his mouth, but stopped talking.

Cheng Jiujiang was not surprised at all when he saw Zuo Lingquan 'dumbfounded' on the spot. He pretended to be an experienced professional and explained seriously:

"This is the spiritual weapon 'Moon in the Water' created by Tiandi City. The principle is similar to the Tiandun Card. As long as it is turned on, you can see the scenery thousands of miles away. We generally call this thing 'Clear Eyes'. It should be a disciple of Fulong Mountain." Discussing..."

Zuo Lingquan naturally did not need Cheng Jiujiang to explain the principles to him. He stood still in the crowd and watched with interest the two inner disciples of the Nine Sects. The young monks in the hall also watched with great interest, and almost no one made a sound.

Tuanzi stood on Zuo Lingquan's shoulder. He was not interested in the old man's nonsense. He rubbed Zuo Lingquan for a moment. After discovering that Zuo Lingquan continued walking without him, he felt a little disappointed and turned his eyes to the other spirit beasts in the hall. .

Jing Terrace is rooted in the southern part of Yuyaozhou and is famous for its ability to control beasts. Shuanlong Port is only one stop away from Jing Terrace. There are many monks on the ship who carry spiritual beasts with them. The most common ones are those that can be used to There are also many small birds, centipedes, scorpions, snakes and the like. Because they are spiritual, most of them will not hurt people at will, and the surrounding monks are not surprised.

Seeing so many beautiful and delicious spiritual beasts, Tuanzi's black bean-like eyes gradually brightened up, and it felt like entering a cafeteria! He tilted his little head, and finally fixed his eyes on a small, shiny snake. The snake was all red and coiled on the wrist of a monk. It obviously belonged to its owner.

"Jiji~"

Tuanzi rubbed Zuo Lingquan with his head, hoping that Zuo Lingquan would catch it for lunch. Unfortunately, Zuo Lingquan couldn't understand bird songs and was focused on watching the game. He just raised his hand to touch its head twice to comfort it.

Seeing this, Tuanzi had no choice but to lie down and stare straight at the little snake not far away...
