Chapter 894 Carpenter Wang
Huan Yin dared not stay in Yingzhao Mansion no matter what. After all, he knew that Yue Xiaoxian had deep feelings for him. If he really stayed, he didn't know how many minor troubles would arise.
Therefore, Huan Yin had to refuse Yue Xiaoxian's kind invitation. Moreover, ordinary refusal was not enough. Huan Yin had to refuse very straightforwardly without any dragging his feet. Because if he hesitated a little, Yue Xiaoxian's kindness would probably put Huan Yin in an awkward situation where he could not refuse the kindness. At that time, he might not be able to leave even if he wanted to.
However, at this moment, Yue Xiaoxian had just helped Huan Yin get rid of Lie Prajna and was planning to give Huan Yin a token to enter Ruyi Heaven. If Huan Yin immediately put on an attitude of rejecting people, it would be too ruthless. What's more, Huan Yin always felt that since the little king of Yingzhao Heaven was a citizen of the Heavenly Dao, he might be able to use him. In this way, he might have some contact with Yue Xiaoxian in the future, so it would be even more difficult for him to refuse too bluntly.
So, after Yue Xiaoxian opened her mouth to persuade him to stay, Huan Yin didn't know what to say for a moment, and the atmosphere in the whole courtyard became awkward because no one spoke for a long time.
Fortunately, the old man who went to prepare the token was very quick. He only went for a short while and returned with a jade slip. The jade slip was still the kind made of pure fairy jade.
"Miss, I brought what Brother Xue wanted." The old man trotted in and said, but he didn't notice that Yue Xiaoxian's eyebrows were slightly frowned at this moment.
Yue Xiaoxian didn't get Huan Yin's answer yet, so she naturally didn't want to be disturbed by the old man. But for Huan Yin, the old man's sudden interruption made him feel like he had been pardoned. He had an idea and immediately thought of how to answer Yue Xiaoxian's question.
"Miss Yue, I came to Dongbatian because I was invited by a friend in Ruyitian. But now I have been wandering outside Ruyitian for a long time, but I have not been able to enter. The day for the visit has long passed. I think my friend has been waiting anxiously for the past few days. If I don't show up soon, he will probably be worried. So I think I'd better go to the appointment first. After I visit my friend, I think there will be a chance for me to visit Yingzhao Mansion again in the future. By then, no matter how kind Miss Yue is, I will accept it with a thick face." Finally, Huan Yin spoke, seemingly responding to Yue Xiaoxian's retention with sincerity, and also swept away the previous awkward atmosphere.
Yue Xiaoxian was naturally very disappointed when she heard Huan Yin politely reject her invitation. However, she saw that Huan Yin was a little emotional, so she naturally thought that Huan Yin had a good relationship with the "friend" in Ruyitian, otherwise he would not have come so far to visit. In this way, she couldn't say anything about keeping Huan Yin.
Moreover, Yue Xiaoxian knew that if it were not for Huan Yin's "friend" inviting her, she would not have had the chance to meet Huan Yin. In this case, she could not join the team of Huan Yin's "friend".
So, Yue Xiaoxian took the jade slip handed over by the old man and handed it to Huan Yin. However, she was not reassured by Huan Yin's words such as "there will be a chance in the future", and emphasized: "Brother Xue must remember to come to Yingzhao Mansion to visit Xiaoxian, Xiaoxian will be waiting for Brother Xue in the mansion."
Huan Yin took the jade slip, knowing that staying longer would only make things more and more troublesome. So he bowed to Yue Xiaoxian and said: "Don't worry, young lady, I will come back to see you. Thank you for your kindness today, I will leave first."
Finally, Huan Yin left Yingzhao Mansion with Zhang Tao and Bai Kui. After the three came out, they did not hesitate at all and ran straight to Ruyitian.
After a short while, after many teleportations, Huan Yin and the other three walked out of Yingzhaotian and went up to a new big city.
This big city is Ruyitian, and as one of the three upper heavens, it should be much larger than any of the four lower heavens. However, the four lower heavens are already incomplete at a glance, so this still incomplete Ruyitian does not appear larger than the four lower heavens from the naked eye.
Although there is no difference in size, Ruyitian's status in the eight eastern heavens is much higher than that of the four lower heavens. Just as Huan Yin said before, if the eight eastern heavens are regarded as a sect, then Ruyitian is part of the inner sect and is extremely important. Therefore, the appearance and spirit of Ruyitian are obviously more eye-catching than any of the four lower heavens.
And such an eye-catching appearance and spirit, in addition to including a more gorgeous and imposing appearance, the most important thing is the supreme and noble atmosphere that has been connected into one.
"The previous four lower heavens have already opened my eyes, and I didn't expect that the upper three heavens would be far better. This heaven is really an unimaginable world. If I go to the Golden Palace Heaven, I can't imagine what the city will look like." Zhang Tao sighed in a low voice beside Huan Yin.
Huan Yin smiled and said, "One day, I will take you to the Central Emperor Shitian. At that time, my Shanxian City will let you know that any city in the four directions and eight heavens is just like this."
Patting the dust on the hem of the Taoist robe, Huan Yin said again: "Let's go, go into the city, now it's still important to get the blessing seal."
After a while, Huan Yin and the other three arrived at the gate of Ruyi Heaven. There are also many guards here to check, and the inspection is more careful and strict. As for the cultivation of the guards, it is much higher than that of the guards in the lower four heavens.
Fortunately, Huan Yin now has the qualifications to enter Ruyitian, so when he took out the jade slip given by Yue Xiaoxian, he was allowed to pass by the guards. But before he entered the city, the guards reminded him that he could only stay for three days at most.
After entering the city, the scene that Huan Yin and the other three saw was different from the scene they saw in the next four days. Compared with the next four days, the streets of Ruyitian were obviously not as lively and chaotic. Not only were there fewer people, but everything seemed to be in good order.
Moreover, from time to time, a small military team would patrol the streets, giving the place a feeling that there would never be any accidents.
There were still pavilions and towers, but there were also fewer people on the streets, sparsely distributed in the city, which seemed a bit lonely.
However, the sparse buildings and people and the orderly streets did not make the entire Ruyitian city fall into a deserted situation. Because many places here were occupied by large parade grounds. In the parade ground, armies were lined up in an orderly manner, and various exercises were being carried out. Occasionally, a loud roar from the army would shake the entire street.
"The upper three days are different from the lower four days. There are fewer people, but there are many military forces. It is the main place to raise soldiers. When acting here, you must be careful and cautious, and you must not cause any trouble." Huan Yin reminded the two people beside him.
Then, he took Zhang Tao and Bai Kui all the way forward according to the route in his memory, looking for the strange man who could make the blessing seal.
From the west to the east of the city, Huan Yin didn't want to cause trouble, so he walked very fast, like a gust of wind. Coupled with several in-place teleportations, it took them less than a moment in total.
Entering the eastern part of the city, Huan Yin quickly took the two people behind him and turned into a remote alley. There were small courtyards and small attics on both sides of the alley, but Huan Yin did not enter any of them.
He only took Zhang Tao and Bai Kui to the deepest part of the alley and saw the small arch bridge at the end.
There is water flowing under the arch bridge, and on the opposite side of the arch bridge is an isolated island surrounded by water. The land is not big, and it has been built into the shape of a courtyard, but it is incompatible with the magnificence and dignity of the heavenly world. It is just an ordinary farmyard, which would even be inconspicuous in the human world.
The courtyard has a door, which is located in the center of the arch bridge, representing that the courtyard is a separate private territory with a separate door and a separate household.
There is a wooden plaque on the door, and the material used is just the most ordinary wood. However, the workmanship of the plaque is quite fine, and it has made the ordinary wood look like a fairy.
There are three words written on the plaque: Carpenter Wang.
Under the plaque, a middle-aged man dressed as a carpenter is sitting there, holding a carving knife in his hand, carving a piece of wood in his hand bit by bit, as if he wants to carve out a human figure.
Looking at him, he is leisurely, and the wood in his hand has a hint of laziness.
