Chapter 413: Brilliance

When all the people in Panlong City are gone, will the shops here still be valuable, and will they still be able to collect so much rent?

In the face of such great changes, will Panlong City officials still follow the same rules as before?

He Lingchuan knew that this guy had a keen sense of smell and would definitely want to get away when the time came, so he approached him to negotiate the rent. He smiled, stood up and said, "Then we'll wait until the relocation order comes down."

After that, he strode out, regardless of Bai Xiao's plea to stay.

The fat man sighed behind him.

There was still a sea of ​​people outside Arena No. 7 today, and He Lingchuan saw Slender Man at first sight. This guy was carrying a sack, and his face was smiling like a flower.

Two hours passed without any danger, and He Lingchuan was still the champion. However, there were bruises on his face, a few holes in his clothes, and some discomfort in his chest and abdomen because he was kicked several times and beaten twice. If the fist is here, breathing will be painful.

He took some medicine and adjusted his breathing for half an hour before he felt relieved.

When the thin man shared the money with him, He Lingchuan took the opportunity to ask: "Have you heard the news?"

The thin man was concentrating on counting the silver and copper plates: "What?"

"News from the Kingdom of Shiluo?"

"It's very inconvenient to charge small amounts of money like this." The money in the ring was easy to make, and he also had some qualifications. The most important thing is that now no one knows that he is the challenger's friend! Others didn't dare to follow suit, so the thin man just wanted to make the business bigger and stronger. "How about making lottery tickets and letting everyone place their bets?"

"You mean, chips?" Don't casinos have this?

"Ah, yes." The thin man came back to his senses after counting a bag of money. "What did you just say, news about Ciro? Yes. I heard that the war between the domestic separatists is getting more and more serious. The capital city is simply unable to suppress it. "

Because it has always insisted on opening up to foreign trade, Panlong City's news channels have become much smoother in recent years than four or five years ago. Domestic intelligence can also be transmitted here sooner or later.

"Who doesn't know this?" A weak country is prone to turmoil, and anyone who dares to follow the Bega system will be doomed. "What else?"

The thin man was confused: "I haven't heard of it."

"Okay." He Lingchuan patted him on the shoulder, took his share of the money and went home.

It seems the news hasn’t spread yet.

On the way, he bought some Poria cakes.

He pushed the door open with a creak and walked in. His yard, or patio, was still so small, but He Lingchuan could still feel the difference.

He hadn't been back for a few days, and a shelf was built above the water tank, which was the outer wall of the kitchen, with three pots of small flowers placed on it.

A pot of apricot-colored ranunculus, a pot of red anemone, and a pot of He Lingchuan are really unrecognizable. The hanging strings of snow-white flowers are like falling snow spots, and they are like the bead curtain on the bride's hijab, which is almost fluttering. to the surface of the tank.

The yard is small and he usually practices martial arts, so the three extra pots of flowers are placed out of his reach.

He Lingchuan sniffed.

His yard had never smelled so good.

Walking into the inner room, the place was spotless, the clutter that was originally piled everywhere was gone, and there was a dark brown suitcase next to the bed. There is a vase on the chair, with two wild gerbera flowers inserted in it, which must have been picked from the countryside.

He opened the box, and sure enough, all the messy things were inside, organized into categories.

At the top were the gentlemen's books he had brought back from the grocery store, several of them neatly stacked in a pile.

At this time, there was movement at the courtyard door, and someone pushed the door open and came in.

He Lingchuan quickly closed the lid of the box with a snap and walked out to take a look:

Sure enough, it was Sun Fuling who came.

She put down the basket in her hand: "Did you win again today?"

"Yeah. It's getting harder and harder to fight, but we still win." He Lingchuan stretched out, but the wound between his ribs was affected, and he groaned, "There are too many strong players in the Gale Army, so it won't be possible next time. "

The left rib was hit by the challenger's stick. At least it was a fracture, right? Today's opponent is particularly cunning. He showed weakness several times in the past and tried to counterattack with one blow.

Of course, he was kicked off the ring by He Lingchuan in the end.

"How can there be an undefeated general? If you stand in that position, you will be defeated sooner or later." Sun Fuling said lightly, and took out two jars of good wine, two plump roast chickens, and three large pieces of sauced beef tendon from the basket. , bundles of hooves, "To celebrate for you, this is the new 'Xinghua Spring' sold by Xinghua Restaurant this year."

People who practice spiritual practice have abundant energy and blood and a large appetite.

"What if I lose?"

"To soothe your sorrow."

She carried the roasted chicken and braised pork chop into the kitchen and cut it into pieces. She picked up the kitchen knife and sharpened it a few times, then made a knife in her hand.

Such a delicate little girl was holding a large kitchen knife with a thick back, and the gleaming blade flipped between her slender fingers, which made He Lingchuan blush.

After more than a dozen clicks, the roasted chicken and the trotters fell into pieces.

He Lingchuan noticed that there were not many new knife marks on the chopping board, which showed that she wielded the knife accurately without wasting any energy.

You know how hard it is to chop big pig bones, who can do it just right?

"And you said you can't cook?"

"No. These are all ready-made." She pointed to the roasted chicken and trotters, "These are given by students."

She pointed to the soy sauce beef again: "This is from Xinghualou."

"I only use the knife." Sun Fuling said with a smile, "Don't you start practicing Kungfu by batching paper and batching tofu?" After saying that, he grabbed the beef with soy sauce. When he lifted the knife in his hand, there was only an afterimage.

The beef in sauce is cut into pieces, and each slice is as thin as a piece of paper, allowing light to pass through.

Shapely as if cut by a machine.

These were placed in the yard. After washing her hands, she took out a small jar that could only hold three ounces of wine.

"What is this?" He Lingchuan pretended to refuse, "It's too rich, I can't finish it!"

Sun Fuling laughed: "Try one?"

She lifted the jar and poured it into the broken porcelain cup, pouring out a ball of thin and long hair-like, but red and wriggling--

worms.

Sun Fuling raised the cup to his mouth: "Come?"

He Lingchuan jumped three feet away: "What is this?"

It's not that he hasn't eaten worms before, but this thing looks hard to eat.

It looks like a parasite.

"Red worms. Are you the only one who wants to eat?" Sun Fuling casually poured the cup into the water tank, and He Lingchuan heard the sound of water.

He looked out and saw the goldfish swimming to the surface of the water, scrambling to eat snacks.

Just took the opportunity to count, one, two, three, four, five, six... Hey, all nine fish are here?

Not only are they lively, but their colors are even more colorful.

This requires sufficient sunlight and nutrition. He Lingchuan asked himself, this fish has been home for seven or eight days, he seems to have only remembered to feed it twice?

Where did the water plants and shells at the bottom of the tank come from? And the snails lying on the wall of the tank, they can't be grown by themselves, right?

He Lingchuan also saw something swaying at the bottom of the tank, blue like a ghost. Looking closely, he found that it was a small shrimp, the body was almost transparent.

It is not easy to raise fish in the open air. There are many magpies and egrets in the city, and they often come to steal food. How lucky are these nine fish to keep the formation all the time?

"You took the trouble to raise this tank of fish." Originally, he fished it to please the girl, but he didn't expect that she would raise it for him in the end.

"It's just a piece of cake." Sun Fuling brushed away the hair in front of her eyes, and the dimples on her cheeks reappeared.

The girl stood in the soft light of April and smiled sweetly. Although she was dressed in plain clothes, she was better than the flowers blooming in the yard.

She lowered her head to feed the fish, and the white flowers with hanging silks complemented each other, like black hair stained with the first snow, and cut it carefully.

He Lingchuan was so fascinated that he felt that the beauty of the world was just like this, and it was all hidden in his palm-sized yard.

Sun Fuling looked at him sideways, her almond eyes full of smiles: "What are you looking at?"

"This flower is beautiful, and fish like to eat it." He Lingchuan quickly pointed to the pot of hanging flowers, "What is it called?"

The silk of the flower was about to hang down to the water surface. A goldfish couldn't eat enough red worms, so it simply jumped out of the water to bite the petals.

"Dropping jasmine." Sun Fuling sorted it out, "I bought it from a foreign merchant. It is said to be a specialty of the eastern part of Xiluo Country. It doesn't grow on the Chiba Plateau."

After feeding the fish and washing their hands, the two sat down to eat food and drink.

He Lingchuan took out the Fuling cake, and now there was a staple food.

When he mentioned the suddenly appeared Gu Luo tree at the South Gate, Sun Fuling asked curiously: "Did it really grow in a few days? I'll go and see tomorrow. Gu Luo trees are rare, where did the seedlings come from?"

"Do you know the Gu Luo tree?"

"I also know a thing or two about the wonders of the world. Isn't this the legendary seabed wood that can let ghosts live?" Sun Fuling picked up a piece of pig's trotter with two fingers and chewed it, not at all shy about being impolite. "The oldest demon king of Beijia Kingdom, Baoshu King, is also a Gu Luo tree."

Don't the spirit seeds come from Baoshu King? He Lingchuan asked her, "I heard that the territory of King Baoshu is the most peaceful demon country in Beijia, with few wars."

"The demon king has never changed, and the old tree has always been in power, isn't it?" Sun Fuling shrugged, "Not to mention other demon countries, even Lingxu City has changed a monarch."

"Beijia has been established for 600 years... No, more than 400 years." It was a close call. I almost forgot that the Panlong calendar is different from reality. At this time, the history of Beijia is only more than 400 years. "I have looked for relevant historical books in Wenxuan Pavilion, and they all say that its national system is chaotic but still standing. What do you think?"

The man in front of him is a master of national history. Asking more questions can save the time of burying his head in looking for books. After all, his time in the dream is also precious.

He Lingchuan poured wine for Master Sun very attentively. The latter raised his glass and drank it all, exhaled lightly, and it really carried the fragrance of apricot flowers.

"The predecessor of such a large area of ​​Beijia was more than a dozen human countries, with two small demon countries in between. One of these two demon countries was destroyed by the human country, and the other felt that the human race was too strong and the demon race was a mess, unable to compete with it, so it threw itself into the arms of the gods, used the power of the gods to unite a group of big demons, and began to turn defeat into victory, bit by bit, one country after another, eroding the human territory."

"Its success attracted more demons to come and join, and the war against the human country became more and more successful. This process lasted only more than 30 years. When the last human country disappeared there, the Beijia Demon Kingdom appeared, and the founding monarch was the first demon emperor. He generously rewarded meritorious officials and divided the huge territory among 12 demon kings with outstanding merits, allowing them to establish their own vassal states. The northern demon country was established from then on."
