I built the Jade Capital with the Netherworld

Chapter 42 A smell of foxy smell combing the mirror

"Wow—"

The next moment, a sharp cry was heard. Lu Wujiu turned his head and saw a huge goshawk falling from the sky.

Lu Wujiu raised his arm, and the goshawk landed on his forearm, its claws like pincers, causing him to feel a dull pain.

If he was not mistaken, this should be the eagle that the Left Protector rode when he paid homage to the Laoli Mountain God.

He originally thought it was a newly civilized monster, but unexpectedly, it was actually a beast controlled by a magic weapon.

"What a huge goshawk!"

A Ni, who was on horseback, had a look of surprise on her face.

"you know?"

Lu Wujiu's heart moved and he asked tentatively.

"Of course! With such a large size and eye-shaped eyebrows, it's clearly a beast tamed by the Huanlong clan. The hall master also has one, but it's a night owl!"

After being counseled by Cen Ying, A Ni's fear gradually subsided and she looked very excited.

The Huanlong clan?
Lu Wujiu's heart moved, and he suddenly realized.

There are many beast-taming sects and families in the world, and there are several of them in the Nanyang Road area.

Among them, the most famous is the Huanlong clan, who "raises ferocious beasts and teaches them how to tame them". They are good at taming all kinds of wild beasts. It is said that the beasts they trained are very smart and can be controlled as easily as one's own arms.

When he first heard this from a casual cultivator, he didn't take it seriously.

Only now do I realize that those who can gain fame are indeed special!
Unfortunately, although the goshawk was large enough to be the left protector, it was still too small for Lu Wujiu.

I can only find another use for it.

He put away the eagle bone flute, and the goshawk immediately flapped its wings and flew into the sky, sensing away, as if it had been following behind him.

Considering that he had obtained the eagle bone flute for quite some time and had long since left the Yunsong Mountain area, the result was obvious. The goshawk had always followed the eagle bone flute and recognized the flute but not the person.

This made Lu Wujiu quite emotional.

If I have the chance, I would like to visit the Huanlong family and see if I can buy a royal beast that can carry people?
While daydreaming, Lu Wujiu casually checked the remaining magic weapons.

Most of them are short swords, blowpipes, etc.

A single detail can reveal the whole picture. It can be seen from this detail that the fox clan is indeed not good at fighting.

Lu Wujiu walked and stopped along the way, and when the sun set in the west, he finally came across a city - Licheng.

He did not rush into the city, but took out the Taoist robe of the Left Protector, handed it to A Ni and said, "Change your clothes to save trouble."

A Ni pinched her clothes with one hand, her eyebrows slightly furrowed. "Brother, can you change your clothes? This dress smells like a fox, A Ni doesn't like it."

Lu Wujiu frowned and scolded, "Change first. I'll buy you new clothes after we get into the city."

A Ni puffed out her cheeks and held it in for a long time before, under Cen Ying's kind persuasion, she put on her Taoist robe, let her hair down, tied it up on her head, and randomly found a branch to stick it on.

I don't want to, even though it has been ugly, but the face is so pretty that at first glance, it looks like a fairy child who is not of this world.

Lu Wujiu shook his head and walked into Licheng in the afterglow of the setting sun.

He randomly found an inn, booked a small courtyard, and asked the waiter to take good care of the old motley horse. However, before he could sit down to eat a hot meal, Cen Ying urged him to buy new clothes before curfew.

Lu Wujiu looked surprised!
Cen Ying was quite in awe of him and always kept her head down and looked docile. Unexpectedly, since A Ni appeared, she turned into an older sister, busy taking care of him.

Now she even dares to urge him to buy new clothes. This A Ni is really something!

No wonder he is favored by the Master of Joy Hall.

Well, this is good. After she finds someone to take her in, she won’t be bullied.

Lu Wujiu shook his head and went out.

He had been to Licheng before, and although he couldn't say he was very familiar with the place, he did know where the commercial street was.

Walking away, most of the shops under the setting sun, except for a few inns and taverns, have already closed, with some doors closed and some shutters slammed shut.

No wonder Cen Ying urged me.

Lu Wujiu was lucky and managed to sneak into Xingshunhao, a store specializing in oil-oiled clothing and hats, before it closed.

Thinking about the storage capacity of the hat, he also bought a few sets of clothes for himself and Liu Qingtan.

After leaving Xingshun, he did not go back immediately, but turned into an unknown alley nearby.

This is the Guiyi Lane in Licheng. Guiyi means old clothes!

This is where ordinary people spend their money. Even though it is rumored that these clothes may come from tombs, the business here is still good!
Look, other streets are getting ready to close.

There are also people here who take advantage of the dusk to bargain with the shop owners, trying to get the clothes they like at the lowest price.

Lu Wujiu strolled in the shop, and after a while, he stopped and pushed open a small shop with a single red lantern hanging on it.

"Sir, please do not enter. The shop is closed."

In the dim shop, the old shopkeeper said drowsily.

Lu Wujiu said: "A friend introduced me to this place and I came here for a drink."

The old shopkeeper raised his hand and pointed to the door curtain beside him: "Come in!"

Lu Wujiu nodded and walked away.

After passing through a long entrance hall, an elegant wine house suddenly comes into view.

At this time, there were already seven or eight casual cultivators sitting in the room. When they saw Lu Wujiu come in, they subconsciously glanced at him, but seeing that he looked like he had only been practicing Taoism for five or six years, they all turned their heads away.

A clever waiter came over and said, "Master Dao, what would you like to drink?"

Lu Wujiu said, "Two taels of stuffed truffles, half a pound of sliced ​​beef, and a plate of fennel beans."

The waiter nodded and said, "Okay!"

Lu Wujiu found a seat at random and sat down. Not long after, the drinks and snacks were served, and he started eating without any hesitation.

But he pricked up his ears and listened to the conversation of the casual practitioners in the tavern.

As far as he knew, this was the favorite gathering place for wandering cultivators in Licheng. The owner of the shop was a wandering cultivator himself. He often opened at night. Because of his affordable prices and the fact that he refused to serve ordinary people, he was deeply loved by wandering cultivators.

Many people come to visit, whether they have something to do or not. The opportunity to make money may be hidden in a casual chat.

Sure enough, the topic in the wine house tonight was quite explosive, attracting many casual cultivators to join the discussion.

It turned out to be the Left Guardian tribe under the Black Dragon King in the neighboring Yunsong Mountain. They were wiped out overnight and set on fire. The billowing sea of ​​fire shot up into the sky, which was so terrifying!

It attracted countless monks to watch.

"There's a Dragon Flower Cave in Yunsong Mountain? How come I didn't know about it?"

"Hey, that's right! If it weren't for that Sky-piercing Poison Dragon, who would have known there was a fox den at the foot of Yunsong Mountain?"

"I tell you, not only was Longhua Cave burned down, but even Huanxi Hall was burned down."

"what!?"

"Oh my, you don't know what the scene was like. When the fire started, so many women ran out naked!"

"Really?"

"Of course not, you didn't see the scene! Tsk tsk... Do you know where those girls were covering their hands?"

"Where else could it be? A ditch three feet above the ground!"

"Hey! Cover your face. It's all the same down there. What's the point of covering it?"

"Hahaha……"

For a moment, obscene laughter echoed throughout the tavern.

As the topic deepened, someone finally mentioned that what was burned down was actually only the Sutra Library in Huanxi Hall.

"I heard someone burned to death in the Sutra Library."

"Who was burned to death?"

"A beautiful lady, a top-grade jade furnace, and the Huanxi Hall Master's dressing mirror! It's said that the Huanxi Hall Master has issued a hunting order, offering a reward of 1,000 taels to anyone who finds the murderer!"

"That's not right. Isn't the Joy Hall Master a woman?"

"Yes, that's why it's called the self-combing mirror and the double-headed lotus!"

The rookie who asked the question blinked in confusion, looking bewildered.
