Chapter 91 Zizhi's Boudoir
"A place of enjoyment?"

Cheng Xinzhan was a little confused.

Sun Miaoshu smiled and said, "Not all the people in the world are pure-hearted and ascetic monks."

He paused, and then said, "Often, only one out of ten thousand monks can ascend to heaven. Most people don't want to die of old age in a cave."

He pointed to the big city in the clouds, "So the monks also want to enjoy themselves, but the karmic consequences of the worldly world are too heavy for them to enter. The famous mountains and rivers are occupied by various sects, so they can only build cities in the sky."

He Jiyuan was a little bit unbelievable, "A group of people who like pleasure can build such a huge city in the clouds?"

Sun Miaoshu laughed again when he heard this. "The only people who would think about pleasure at all costs are rich people. Only rich people can drive the powerful from all sides to accomplish their goals. Never underestimate wealth and businessmen. Baiyujing was built by them."

As they were talking, they had already arrived at the gate of the huge city, and many people were flying over from all directions.

“Is it always this crowded?”

He Jiyuan asked.

"No, it's just the New Year coming up, so there are more people here."

"Ah, is it still New Year's Day here?"

"Haha, except for Daozi, aren't we all from the mortal world? It's deeply rooted that we should take a break and have fun during the New Year. Don't you also have a break in the first month of the year in Yingyuan Mansion?"

He Jiyuan smiled and said yes.

"Doesn't it cost money to go into the city?"

The huge city tunnel had no door and no one was guarding it, so everyone just went in.

There was only a huge peacock statue erected at the city gate tower. A man was no taller than the bird's toes. The statue was made of unknown material, but the four colors of gold, blue, green and black shone brightly in the sun, making it look like a living thing.

“It’s free to enter, and even if you don’t stay overnight, eat or buy anything, you don’t have to pay to shop around.”

Sun Miaoshu said.

Cheng Xinzhan's eyes fell on the floor tiles of the giant city. The floor tiles were as shiny as jade. He asked,

"What brick is this?"

Sun Miaoshu glanced at him.
"You can always see the key points. This is the Yungen Stone, which is said to have been stripped from the ruins of the ancient heaven. This third heaven is said to be the place where the ancient heaven raised horses and where the heavenly soldiers trained. There are quite a few ancient relics scattered around.

"These Yungen stone bricks, apart from those in Baiyujing, are still circulating outside. Each piece is much more expensive than our Yunjia."

Cheng Xinzhan looked around. How many Yungen stones would be needed to build such a huge city? Such a huge city has twelve floors and five walls. The Baiyujing, which was built on such a scale, only used the remains of the ancient heavenly palace where horses were raised and soldiers were trained. The heavenly palace, which was so high above, was only a ruin.

Several people passed through the thick city wall and came into the city, and only then did they see the scenery in the city:
The city covered an area of ​​who knows how many miles. Walking on the wide streets, one could not see the end in front of him. The tall buildings on both sides blocked the sunlight, but there were no shadows on the ground.

It turned out that there was a tall tree planted every few dozen steps on both sides of the street, and on the branches of the tall trees were many moon-like lanterns hanging. The lanterns emitted a soft white light, and they were on even during the day, illuminating every corner.

There is a building every five steps and a pavilion every ten steps.

There are rooms for banquets, rooms for fine clothes, rooms for singing and dancing, all of which are different. There are rooms for heating, rooms for bathing, rooms for playing games, all of which are unique.

There are suspended corridors connecting the pavilions, crisscrossing each other. The bridges are covered with brocade plush. You can move from one building to another without having to set foot on the ground, even if you spend a month traveling.

The protruding eaves of the pavilions were pointed and carved into the shapes of dragons and phoenixes with their heads raised, their beaks pointing to the sky. The pavilions were of different heights and were staggered, with eaves gathering towards the street, as if the dragons and phoenixes were about to fly out at any moment.

There are probably tens of millions of such buildings.

The crisscrossing covered bridges overhead look like neon lights, and the long bridge over the winding lotus pond is carved from gold and jade, like a sleeping dragon.

People were surrounded by corridors, bridges and pavilions, and there was bright light everywhere, making it impossible to tell the direction between east and west.

Sometimes there was a bright light from the pavilion, like stars or candles. Looking carefully, it turned out to be the women dressing up. Sometimes there was a white cloud gathering on the pavilion, which was the drinkers taking off their clothes and throwing away their hats.

The running water on both sides of the street exudes a fragrance, which seems to be the smell of rouge. Yellow smoke and purple mist float out of the shops and pavilions, which are the different incense of each house.

Jewels and precious stones are everywhere.

It is bustling and beautiful.

The group of seven people looked around, marveled and astonished. The practitioners on the road did not laugh at the young people who had just arrived. This was the expression they should have when they first arrived in Baiyujing.

You must know that there are two special kinds of people in Baiyujing.

One type is to go into the city specifically and wait at the gate, just to see other people's surprised expressions, so as to ease the embarrassment caused by being too surprised when you first arrive.

There is another type of people, the head family of Baiyujing. They are responsible for watching the expressions of passers-by. If they are surprised, they will be proud. If they find that someone is dissatisfied with something, they will immediately go to see where the problem is and correct it as quickly as possible.

At this time, the calmest ones were Sun Miaoshu and the third sister.

Sun Miaoshu was here because she had been here several times before, and Sanmei was here because it was so bright everywhere that she couldn't see clearly.

"That's not a demon! Can he come in too?!"

He Bingkun shouted and pointed at a man wearing ragged clothes with many black talismans stuck on his clothes. As everyone knows, this is the clothing of the Beimangshan sect of the Northern Demon Cult.

When passers-by heard it, they just laughed it off and ignored it. When the devil heard it, he also laughed it off and didn't bother to pay any attention.

Sun Miaoshu hurriedly stopped him. He Jiyuan took out all the thunder talismans, which was a taboo in Baiyujing. He explained, "Put them away quickly. Weapons are forbidden in Peacock City. This is the biggest rule!"

Seeing He Jiyuan put away the thunder talisman, he explained: "This is a place run by merchants, how can we talk about good and evil? He wants to make money from both the Taoist and the evil sects. The devil wants to enjoy himself more. When it comes to spending money, we can't compare with him!
"There is no good or evil, no factions, and everyone comes here for only one purpose: to be happy and enjoy themselves."

Everyone was enlightened when they heard this.

At this time Feng Jihu asked again: "Brother Dao, what kind of businessman can build such a city?"

"Of course it's not just one person, but a group of people, from several families all over the world."

He spoke slowly,

"The owner of this southeastern Peacock City is the Qian family, who did business in Kuaiji, Jinling, and Yuzhang before heaven. The owner of the northeastern Haiqing City is the Xiao family, who did business in Jibei and Mobei before heaven. The owner of the northwest Bifang City is the Le family, who did business in Beijiang, Xihai, and Xisai before heaven. The owner of the southwest Bailing City is the Mu family, who did business in Dianwen, Xishu, and Nanhuang before heaven. The owner of the middle Jingwei City is the Yuan family, who did business in Qingzhou, Heluo, and Jingchu before heaven.

"These five families were already very wealthy before they ascended to heaven. Later, they built Baiyujing together with the owner of the 12th floor and named the city after the bird. When they ascended to heaven, they brought many mortals who voluntarily followed them. They multiplied and thrived in heaven. Many of them never came down to earth in their entire lives."

The group of people were walking and chatting. All the buildings were decorated with lights and it was very lively. There was also a pretty fairy leaning on the beauty chair and calling out to them, which made people feel restless and uneasy.

After walking on the street for a while, they were led by Sun Miaoshu into a restaurant. As soon as they entered, servants and maids greeted them and guided them to sit down. The table was made of Nanshan golden nanmu and the chairs were covered with Beihai white bear skin.

"What would you like to drink?"

The servant asked.

Everyone looked at Sun Miaoshu, who coughed and said, "Give me two pots of Tiangu Yunmeng juice."

"Okay, wait a moment, are there any restrictions on the food?"

Everyone shook their heads.

The servant withdrew.

"He didn't ask about any side dishes. If he ordered too much, how much would it cost?" Zhu Jianmo asked carefully.

Sun Miaoshu said, "Here we only charge for the wine, not the dishes. We will continue to charge after you finish eating, and there is no need to worry about the variety.

"As for the wine money."

His face showed pain, "One pot is one gold."

Everyone stared at Sun Miaoshu with wide eyes. Xu Jishen said bluntly, "Are you crazy? We don't have to drink!"

Before entering the door, Sun Miaoshu said that he would treat everyone this time.

Now everyone knew why Baiyujing was called a den of brothel.

Cheng Xinzhan was also shocked. Although he used connections, his "Dragon Cart" only cost one gold. Although Sun Miaoshu had entered the second realm, he was only in the second realm. How much money could he save?

Sun Miaoshu smiled and said, "You don't know, this is already the cheapest. There is nothing here that costs less than one gold. The last time my senior brother broke through and brought me up here, he also drank this wine. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. The reason why I took you around for so long, walked into this store, and ordered this pot of wine is because I only know this store and have only drunk this kind of wine!"

"We're just hanging out, we don't have to come in and drink!"

Xu Jishen still felt a little blamed.

"No more words, just consider it as a celebration of my breakthrough!"

Sun Miaoshu said with a smile.

Everyone stopped talking, but they were all thinking about going back to supply Brother Miaoshu.

"Sir, Yunzhe is here, please clean up."

The waiter brought seven white porcelain plates, each with a few pieces of what looked like sugarcane on it.

"Eat it, just like sugar cane, chew it and spit it out, but this will take away the taste in your mouth, so you can taste the aroma of the wine better when you drink it later."

Sun Miaoshu explained, "It's true that we eat wind and drink dew, and it's tasteless and fishy, ​​but this is prepared for those who linger in Peacock City for many years, so it doesn't hurt for us to try it."

Then, everyone got to see what they wanted. There were two pots of wine, and everyone was asked about their preferences. The wine was made into two flavors, warm and chilled. Everyone was asked how hot or chilled they wanted it. Since they had never tasted it, how would they know? They just gave random answers.

It was not until a pot of sizzling hot wine was served to He Jiyuan that everyone became overjoyed.

After drinking half of the wine, they started to eat some appetizers. There were various delicacies, but everyone only recognized one or two of them as they had seen them in the capital's kitchen, and the others were unheard of. The appetizers were free, so this was a good deal for the waiting brother, who ate the delicacies that everyone stuffed into his mouth one by one.

The third sister was much more reserved. She sat on Cheng Xinzhan's lap and only ate fried golden-tail loach after everyone at the table had eaten it. She chewed it slowly when it was fed to her mouth and didn't want anything else.

"What a beautiful raccoon."

A voice nearby said.

Cheng Xinzhan looked over when he heard the words. It was a woman who was coming downstairs who said it. Their table was facing the stairs.

The woman was wearing a white fur coat and a scarf on her face. She was holding a cat in her arms, a lion cat with golden fur all over its body.

Cheng Xinzhan smiled and nodded at her. His third sister was indeed beautiful.

"It may be effective to feed the white film catfish more marine fish. The golden-tailed loach is a lake species. If she likes to eat loach, she can be fed with six-bearded loach and fish dragon loach."

The woman said.

He was a little surprised. He didn't know there was such a saying. Even Qu Jihan didn't know it. So he stood up and thanked him.

The woman nodded and left the restaurant.

Cheng Xinzhan touched his third sister and kept this matter in mind.

"Master Gong Chang is here!"

Suddenly someone shouted outside.

The people at the Sanqingshan table looked at each other, and now that they were full of food and drink, they paid the bill and left.

At the entrance of the restaurant, I saw a crowd of people coming towards this side from the direction of the city.

When they walked in, everyone saw a deer chariot in the middle of the street. It was pulled by two white deer. The chariot was not touching the ground but suspended in the air. A young man in purple clothes was sitting inside, who looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old. On both sides of the young man and behind him, there were many people following him.

Suddenly, Cheng Xinzhan's eyes focused and he saw a familiar face.

The one behind the deer chariot seems to be Liang Zhenjing?
"What a grandpa and a young master, he is so impressive, everyone else walks but he has a car."

Wang Miaoyuan said.

Unexpectedly, the young master who was still far away seemed to have heard something and looked in this direction. However, Wang Miaoyuan looked at the man without blushing or beating his heart, as if he didn't say what he said just now.

The young man seemed to have no clues and looked away.

Everyone was guarding the deer chariot as it passed in front of everyone. Liang Zhenjing followed behind the deer chariot like a loyal guard and did not notice Cheng Xinzhan standing on the side of the road.

Cheng Xinzhan whispered among the crowd, "The people following behind are from Longhu Mountain."

There are some differences among the people.

"Gong Chang, it's Zhang!"

Wang Miaoyuan suddenly said.

"That...that purple-robed boy?"

Everyone had some guesses.

Could it be the little master of this generation?
The little Taoist priest is not in the Taoist temple chanting sutras, but is here to enjoy himself?
The crowd followed from a distance.

After walking for a while, a pond appeared on the left side of the street. Purple lotus flowers were planted in the pond, and there was an exquisite attic in the center of the lotus pond.

There was a group of beautiful girls waiting at the attic door, each with a face that could bring disaster to the country and the people.

Master Gongchang's deer chariot turned and went to the attic.

Everyone also saw the name of the attic, which was called:
Zizhi Fragrant Boudoir.

"Who is this person? He actually asked the fairy in the purple boudoir to wait in front of the door."

Someone in the crowd watching the fun asked this question.

"I don't know where he comes from, but he should be very rich. I heard that he comes every month, and every time he comes, someone will come to notify him in advance, so that Ziguiqinglou will not receive any guests that day and only serve him. But in the Twelve Towers and Five Cities, I haven't heard of any family with the surname Gongchang."

Someone answered.

Some people in Sanqing Mountain were even a little bit unbelievable. Just hearing the name "Zizhi Xianggui" and looking at the group of plump and slim women there, even a fool would know what place that was.

The little Taoist priest from Longhu Mountain comes to this kind of place every month?
