Journey to the West: Cultivation Begins at Jindou Mountain

Chapter 108 Xiaping City God

Niu Yi and the old man surnamed Zhao went straight to the second floor of Baihua Tower, squeezed aside the two people in front of them, stood by the railing and looked down. However, the two people seemed to be unaware of it. They continued to move to another place, stuck their heads out, and shouted excitedly towards the bottom with flushed faces.

Niu Yi looked intently at the woman on the stage on the first floor.

But the woman was seen in a pink silk dress, dancing to the music played by the zither girl on the stage. Her two pink long sleeves were dancing gracefully like a fairy, and were extremely beautiful.

Niu Yi looked at the woman's beautiful face, which was one of the best in the Baihua Pavilion, but she shouldn't drive these people so crazy.

The problem should be the light pink makeup on the woman's face. The familiar cherry blossom scent he just smelled came from this woman.

At this moment, the old man surnamed Zhao beside him said:
"Speaking of Miss Ling'er from the Baihua Pavilion, she was only a relatively outstanding one in the Baihua Pavilion before, far from what she is today, like a star surrounded by the moon, becoming the most beautiful woman in the Baihua Pavilion."

"Just three years ago, a cherry blossom demon arrived in Xiaping City. She transformed into a young girl, sold some rouge and powder for money, and bought some sugar figurines, cakes, and other small items."

"I saw that she was innocent and hadn't harmed anyone, so I ignored her and let her go."

"And the one who bought all that rouge and powder was none other than this girl, Ling'er. She felt sorry for the girl transformed by the cherry blossom demon, so she bought all the rouge and powder she had."

"However, Miss Ling'er never imagined that those rouge and powder were made of extraordinary materials."

"I don't know what kind of spiritual materials the cherry blossom demon mixed in, but the fragrance of the cherry blossoms can easily make people around it feel good, just like these people in front of me."

"It is precisely because of this that we have the current courtesan, Miss Ling'er."

When Niu Yi heard this, his expression became a little strange. He looked at the people around him whose faces were flushed, and thought to himself that this was more than just a good impression.
And that Sakura Fairy... there must be only one Sakura Fairy who could produce rouge and powder with such effects made from spiritual materials and also bought a sugar man.

Yao Qing Er.
The old man looked at Niu Yi's face, thinking that he understood what he meant, and then said helplessly:

"Alas, I never imagined then that the cherry blossoms used by the cherry blossom demon to create her rouge and powder were so extraordinary, and the fragrance they exude could even make people unconsciously addicted to them."

"That cherry blossom demon must have been unintentional and only cared about using the fine spiritual materials. But the Taoist priest also saw the current state of these people."

"Fortunately, Miss Ling'er is almost finished with her rouge and powder, so this matter will soon come to an end."

Niu Yi looked at the girl Ling'er below, then looked at the old man beside him. He probably understood what he meant and said with a smile:

"I understand what Mr. Zhao means."

To put it bluntly, this person was simply telling him not to take out spiritual objects casually in the city.

This person also wanted to remind him that the various spiritual objects of those who practice Taoism are just like Yao Qing'er's cherry blossoms. For mortals, their functions are far from simple.

He had experienced this matter a long time ago, just like when he gave Guo Le'an a white-grade spiritual peach, it greatly improved Guo Le'an's martial arts.

Just like the safflower pills that he casually made for Bai Guiqin back then, only a small amount of safflower spiritual material was added to it. After taking three safflower pills, Bai Guiqin's extremely weak body was replenished and her blood and qi were sufficient.

It is said that the Dragon King and his sons and grandsons among the dragon clans of the four seas are urine. If it falls into the water, it can make the fish in the water show signs of turning into dragons. If it falls on the ground, Ganoderma lucidum will grow immediately.

There are actually many more such things.

Of course, although he understood this kind of thing, the old man in front of him was telling him this out of kindness, so he naturally would not offend him.

Seeing that Niu Yi seemed to really understand his intention, the old man surnamed Zhao couldn't help but smile and nodded.

Although it was difficult to tell the depth of this young Taoist, the ethereal and clear spirit he possessed was genuine, and he also behaved with great courtesy, which made him feel favorable towards him.

He was afraid of these ascetics who came from the mountains. They had acquired great skills but were ignorant of worldly affairs. The greater their skills, the greater the trouble they might cause.

Fortunately, the person in front of him was not the kind of person he was worried about.

After Niu Yi and the old man came out of the Baihua Pavilion, they said goodbye and left. At the same time, he had a box of tea and a bag of silver in his hands. Of course, he didn't take them for free.

At this moment, the purple-robed old man standing beneath the tree looked at the incense stick in his hand. He held it in his hand, examining it over and over again as if it were a treasure, unable to let it go. "There's not a single trace of aura emanating from it. It must be the top-grade incense stick."

"It seems I underestimated that person just now. How about paying him a visit tomorrow morning?"

The old man stroked the Tongshenxiang in his hand with some admiration. Even considering his status, this thing in his hand was definitely a good thing.

"Lord City God!"

Hearing the voice behind him, the old man's smile faded and he turned to look at the person behind him, and an aura of majesty emanated naturally from him.

"what's up?"

"Sir, do you still need to watch that?"

"No need, don't bother that person anymore."

"Yes! Lord City God!"

On the other side, Niu Yi used the silver he had just earned to move into a room in the inn.

Feeling that the sight had completely disappeared, Niu Yi couldn't help but smile.

It seemed that the City God had relaxed his vigilance against him.

This is Zhao Xizhu. I don’t know who he was hundreds of years ago and what official position he held.

If the enthronement of the God of Land usually only requires great merits, then the City God not only requires great merits, but also needs to be a famous loyal and wise person in history to be enthroned.

Such people are often loyal and brave people who died for their country or upright and intelligent people. Looking at this city god named Zhao Xizhu, he must have been a high-ranking official who held a high position for a long time during his lifetime.

However, this time when he came to Xiaping City, he was surprised to see a small farce caused by an old friend.

Niu Yi sat cross-legged on the bed, slowly closed his eyes, and entered into a spiritual state of mind.

Baoquanjian.

The Land God of Luoying Valley, the Land God of Jindou Mountain, the Land God of Yunwu Mountain, and Yao Qing'er all bowed and said goodbye to the Land God of Baoquanjian, left Baoquanjian, and left with the spiritual materials they needed.

Influenced by Niu Yi, these few people would occasionally get together over the years to exchange the spiritual fruits and materials they needed.

The God of Land of Baoquanjian stood on the river, looking at Yao Qing'er's departing figure with some envy in his eyes.

Look at Yao Qing'er. She has become familiar with that person over the years, and got luck and help from him, and broke through the realm without any obstacles.

Look at his house again.
Thinking of this, the face of Baoquanjian land couldn't help but become a little sour. He rolled up his sleeves, looked down at the big blue fish sleeping soundly in the river, raised his fist and rushed over!

"Boom!!!"

"Ouch!!!"

"Stinky old man, what are you doing!!!"

"Boom!!"

"Ouch! Stop it, stop it! It's happened so many times over the years! If you keep doing this, I'll run away from home!"

"How dare you talk back! I told you to get acquainted with that person, but you refused to listen! Look at Yao Qing'er!!"

Baoquan Stream was bustling with activity.
