Immortal Cultivation and Life-Saving Guide

Chapter 110 Sucheng
As the granary and transportation hub of Ju State, although Suzhou is not as magnificent as Zhongzhou where the capital is located, it is not inferior to Zhongzhou in prosperity.

Wei Xi, who came from the mountains of Xizhou, was seeing such a prosperous city as Sucheng for the first time.

Although he hadn't entered the city yet, Wei Xi could see the high city walls of Sucheng from afar, and even the flags fluttering in the wind on them were clearly visible.

"We've already reached Sucheng?" Lian Gouyu led the horse, his eyes full of curiosity. "No wonder they say Northern Frontier is the best place in the world. Baoxiang City doesn't even seem half as big as here!"

"Suzhou has a long history. Several generations of rulers in previous dynasties built water conservancy projects and reclaimed farmland here." Qin Feng seized every opportunity to get the two men to memorize more. "That's how Suzhou became able to support the world."

"During this dynasty, the imperial court worked hard to improve river transportation and dredge the river. Suzhou once again became the throat of Ju State's north-south shipping and land transportation, and naturally prospered."

Wei Xi nodded repeatedly, thinking that if Qin Feng had not been weakened, he would probably be even more arrogant than he is now.

"Traveling back and forth, yet clutching a bag of grain," Lian Gou-yu couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "No wonder he's so impressive!"

When talking about why these three people ran to Sucheng instead of going straight to Yizhangyuan, we have to say that Wei Xi thought a lot.

Wei Xi believed that she was not a person who could plan everything out. She had no idea what the purpose of the mysterious monk was. Seeing that Zhuang Yi was asked to close the case as soon as possible, she felt that something was wrong.

Suffering from the lack of definite news, Wei Xi decided to go to Sucheng, where the government office was located, to inquire about some information and see if he could get any unexpected gains.

By the way, do some things that are difficult to do in Qingcheng Sect.

The three of them packed up their bags, found Wei XZ's horse outside the town, and headed straight for Sucheng.

This time they were lucky to escape death, and they didn't have any mission to do in Sucheng, so they were naturally relaxed. Besides, they were all young and very curious. They were queuing to enter the city gate and observing the people around them with great interest.

There are eight gates in Sucheng. Since Wei Xi and her companions came on horseback, they lined up at the gate with means of transportation. The team was composed of businessmen, traveling performers, and people wearing official boots.

The small vendors and villagers from the surrounding villages who had collected things to sell had already gone into the city early, so naturally they were not visible.

There were also monks like Wei Xi wearing Taoist robes, and judging by the color of their robes, there were even a few monks from the Nanjiang sect.

Lian Gouqie knew that those monks were from Nanjiang, so he looked at them several times with anxiety.

"Are you trying to make some friends?" Lian Gou's unusual behavior caught Qin Feng's attention. She was making way for a mule that was anxious to reunite with its companions. "It looks like they're a sect under the jurisdiction of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, so they shouldn't be in trouble."

Wei Xi knew what Lian Gou was thinking about, after all, he told the story vividly.

"No," Lian Gouyue retracted his gaze and said with a curled lip, "I'm already here anyway, so what does it matter whether I know or not?"

Since these words involved Lian Gouqie himself, Qin Feng immediately understood that this person wanted to inquire about the shirtless and noseless painter.

"We are all waiting here anyway. It won't waste time if you go and ask around." Qin Feng tried to persuade him kindly, but Lian Gou Xie shook his head and said that it would be difficult to get any information even if he asked.

Wei Xi said, "He has decided to ignore this matter for now. He won't need anyone to persuade him when he wants to investigate."

After walking two steps forward with the team, Wei Xi said, "When the time comes, he won't hesitate to turn Nanjiang and Baoxiang City upside down."

Just as Wei Xi said, Lian Gouqie did not ask those disciples of the Nanjiang sect for any news.

Fortunately, Wei Xi and the other two soon arrived. The two soldiers guarding the city gate saw that they were wearing weapons and Taoist robes, and they bowed and said, "Master, do you have any proof?"

Fortunately, the mission card was not lost. The three of them handed the item over. After the soldier checked it, they returned it respectfully.

"Master, you can pass now."

Once you enter Sucheng, it becomes even more prosperous, making it hard to take your eyes off it.

Wei Xi was still interested in taking a few more glances, but the other two people didn't pay much attention after what they saw at the door.

Qin Feng dragged Wei Xi to the inn, but the latter was still fascinated by the scenery in the city and had no intention of staying there. The three of them ate something at the inn, and Wei Xi was about to go out to get some information.

Lian Gouqie suffered a great crime in Tangkou Town. His bones had healed before Wei Xi set out, but he was still weak. In addition, because of what happened at the city gate, he stayed in the inn to rest.

"I don't know if the Qingcheng Sect's reputation can be accepted by the government office?" Qin Feng thought that if it really didn't work, he would take out the token of his grandfather.

"What are you doing in the government office?"

"Didn't you say you wanted to find out about the case?" Qin Feng asked back.

Wei Xi was almost dying of worry, and it took him a long time to speak, "Are you going to go in and ask the people in the government office?"

Qin Feng nodded hesitantly, "It's possible to retrieve some files."

"The people in the government office may have conflicts with Zhuang Yi, but they are definitely not on the same page with us."

"You always think that others follow the same rules as you do. Don't be like this in the future." Wei Xi told Qin Feng about his concerns.

"It's okay," Qin Feng reacted quickly at this time, "I have you by my side, you will never let me suffer any loss."

"Once you ascend, you'll have to rely on yourself."

Qin Feng raised his eyebrows. "Since we've ascended, shouldn't we be separated? What's wrong with you today?"

Wei Xi didn't say anything. She knew that Qin Feng was very talented and was a true genius in cultivating immortals. In this regard, she could not catch up with her even if she tried her best.

Besides, Wei Xi clenched his palms. Who knows what will happen in the future? Will he be able to walk out of Baoxiang City and Tangkou Town alive?

But Qin Feng's temper really made Wei Xi a little worried.

Wei Xi was worried here, while Qin Feng figured out something was wrong.

".Xiaoxi? Are your injuries not fully healed? Or did something happen to you?" Qin Feng immediately put aside his confusion and frustration, and focused on worrying about Wei Xi.

"No, I just have a lot of thoughts." Wei Xi replied, and asked the fluffy Lingyin to come out and act cute.

"That's good," Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief. "You said we can't go to the government office, so where can we get information?"

Wei Xi pulled Qin Feng to change out of his gray Taoist robe, and they turned into several alleys and finally stopped in a remote hutong.

The alley was relatively clean, but it was the rainy season and there was some water on the ground, which smelled bad.

Wei Xi took out the buns he had just bought and walked over to a few beggars who were lying lazily at the foot of the wall.

"Everyone, I need help." Wei Xi waved the two buns in his hand under Qin Feng's shocked gaze, "I have a tray of buns here."

The older beggar was quite steady, but the other three were not. When they saw that they were two little girls, they pretended to rob them.

Unexpectedly, the shorter girl with a bird standing on her head had flames coming out of all ten fingers, which made it obvious that she was a monk.

"Do you want to eat some buns?" Wei Xi threw the burnt buns into the old beggar's arms.

　Wei Xi's resume's specialty column only lists "expert in arson."

　　Wei Xi was frightened. After all, there was something strange in her body, and someone almost killed her. The child had nightmares and left a "last word".
