"It's okay." Jiang Lin smiled and said, "I have to take part in the competition, so I won't chat with you." "Participate in the competition? Oh, by the way, no one has informed you yet, so you can join if you don't need it. "It's time to compete." "No need to participate in the competition?" Jiang Lin looked at Qinglong Siming in confusion. "Because of your heroic performance just now, you saved the possible chaotic situation. You also saved Nalan Xue and Jing'er, so the palace master decided to give you one of the ten places in Hualong Pond. His Majesty also nodded. I support it. Your Majesty also said that if you are willing to develop in Qinglong Kingdom, you can be knighted." Seeing Jiang Lin's appearance, Qinglong Siming knew that Jiang Lin had misunderstood what he meant, so he quickly explained. "So that's the case, but the great elder doesn't have any objections?" Jiang Lin sighed in relief and nodded. "Where's the great elder? You tore apart a bear demon in the late Nascent Soul stage with your bare hands. What can he say? He's really hoping you won't compete now. You have such a good relationship with the palace master, and he used to do it to you again. If you take action to do this to Scholar Bai, he will have no place to cry. Scholar Bai is the treasure of the Bai family," Qinglong Siming said in a somewhat unkind tone. Obviously, the relationship between the Prince's Palace and the Bai family is somewhat different. not so good. Hearing Qinglong Siming¡¯s explanation, although Jiang Lin had no intention of taking action against Scholar Bai. To be precise, he never took Bai Tieyong's difficulties to heart at the beginning. After all, Jiang Lin never thought about becoming the enshrined elder of Qinglong Palace from the beginning. But it was understandable for people to have such worries, so Jiang Lin just smiled and did not continue to ask. Jiang Lin was also happy to get a place for nothing and Qingling would not pay any price. "Where are you going?" Seeing Jiang Lin smile at him as if to say goodbye, then turn around and walk towards the way he came, Qinglong Siming immediately chased after him. "Go back and practice." Jiang Lin gave Qinglong Siming a strange look. "Cultivation? I said Brother Jiang, why are you practicing when you are already so powerful? Come on, come on, you saved my sister today. Because of the sudden appearance of the Demon Sect, several elders went back to discuss things. The competition over there There's nothing good to see. For example, if I invite you to Qinglong City for dinner, just treat it as a thank you for what happened today." Qinglong Siming said very familiarly. Although this thank you is a bit light compared to saving Qinglong Jing, when Jiang Lin saved people, he never thought about any reward. Jiang Lin pondered for a moment and felt that he also wanted to go to Qinglong City to buy some materials, so he nodded and agreed. "That's right, good days are short and you should enjoy it as a human being. As a monk, while making breakthroughs and increasing your lifespan, you should enjoy it even more. Isn't it just to get better by practicing to increase your strength? So just practice this kind of thing, just enjoy it. Enjoying life is the real thing." Seeing Jiang Lin nod in agreement, Qinglong Siming said with emotion. Jiang Lin just smiled and said nothing. To be honest, although Qinglong Siming liked him but was careless, Jiang Lin really envied his freedom and ease. And what Qinglong Siming said is right, the purpose of cultivation is to make yourself better, or to transcend life and death and to escape from reincarnation. But for the sake of cultivation, it seems that the monks are not living a very good life. However, envying Qinglong Siming does not mean that Jiang Lin will do what Qinglong Siming did, because the two people have different ideals and different living environments. Whether it's looking for his master, or fulfilling his father's wishes and bringing his mother and brother back. Or take a look at the person you don't have buried deep in your heart. All of this requires strength. These things spurred Jiang Lin not to stop. Qinglong City, the capital of the Qinglong Kingdom. A large city that can accommodate millions of people, it is the core of the Qinglong Kingdom. Because he had never entered the city, Jiang Lin originally thought that all the people living in the city were mortals who could not cultivate. But I only discovered it when I walked into Jiang Lin of Qinglong City. It turns out that although there are many mortals in the city, there are also many monks among them. However, monks and mortals live in two different worlds. Although they have brief contact, most of them are monks looking down at mortals, while mortals do not think that the person passing by them is a monk. Walking on the bustling street, listening to Qinglong Siming¡¯s introduction and looking at the busy people. Jiang Lin's lonely heart slowly relaxed. Humans are social creatures. Even if you practice alone for a long time, you will inevitably feel a little lonely. Integrating himself into the crowd and feeling the excitement, Jiang Lin gradually relaxed, and a long-lost warmth and sunshine arose in his heart. It seemed that he was infected by the people around him, and he felt nothing but haze. "It seems like it would be good to go out for a walk when you have nothing to do." Feeling that his mood, which had been quiet for several months, was a little loose, and seemed to be on the verge of a breakthrough, the smile on Jiang Lin's face became sincere.After a while, the eyes around me became warmer. "This is where we are, Baihualou. Let me tell you, not only are the girls here amazing, but the chefs here are also amazing. If Brother Jiang wants to find a partner who is a dual practitioner, it may be a little difficult to come here. But if you can get the Baihualou's Those who won the top prizes are another matter. But if you want to enjoy it, this is definitely the right place." Pointing at the five-story palace in front of him, Siming's eyes lit up and he didn't pay attention to Jiang Lin. A trace of unnaturalness flashed across his face, and he pulled Jiang Lin in directly. After entering, Qinglong Siming's eyes darted around, just like a frequent visitor to a brothel. Although there was a girl he was familiar with, he always thought about discovering a new continent and casually said to Jiang Lin. "Hey, young prince, you're here. You haven't been here for a long time. Qiu Shuang and the others are eagerly waiting for you." Not long after he walked in the door, a well-dressed old man came up with his eyes lit up. , the face that was covered with seven layers of powder, and as the mouth opened, the powder fell down. "I'm a little busy these days, so as usual, give me the Liuxiang Pavilion. Then get me a few cards, especially the steamed cod, which must be cooked by the master. As for Qiu Shuang and the others Well Xian asked them to get ready and talk later." Seeing the Madam approaching, the smile on Qinglong Siming's face became even brighter, and his whole body relaxed, like a prodigal entering a familiar place. Like a boudoir. As for the Madam's title, Qinglong Siming, he didn't feel there was anything wrong. Since I was the prince, he was naturally the young prince. But when he saw Jiang Lin standing next to him looking a little unnatural, Qinglong Siming still realized it clearly. I didn¡¯t come here to relax alone, I was treating someone to dinner today. Although inviting you to a meal at this place is a bit misleading, but if the young prince likes it, can you take care of it? "Wellyoung prince, you came a little late, Liuxiang Pavilionhow about I go to Chunxiang Pavilion? A few servants caught a three-color python outside a few days ago. I ordered the kitchen to put the most delicate one Duan Rou is here for you to make snake soup, what do you think?" After hearing Qinglong Siming's words, the madam's face changed, and then she said with no smile on her face, but she looked a little worried in Qinglong Siming's eyes. "Chunxiang Pavilion?" Qinglong Siming frowned, and a look of displeasure flashed across his face. However, Qinglong Siming, who often comes here, knows that the identity of the people who can enter Liuxiang Pavilion must not be simple. After looking at Jiang Lin, who was standing next to him, Qinglong Siming said, "Chunxiang Pavilion is Chunxiang Pavilion, but If you want to eat the snake soup, you also need to get the snake gall for me. " "Thank you for your generosity, young prince. Not to mention the snake gall, I can give you the whole three-color python. I'll tell the people below to be careful when they do it. Let's see if I can get the skin off the forehead of the tricolor python and make a python belt for you." Seeing Qinglong Siming's unhappy expression, the madam became even more uneasy, but unexpectedly, Qinglong Siming agreed. , the old bustard was overjoyed, and worked even harder to please Qinglong Siming. To be honest, this was Jiang Lin¡¯s first time in a place like a brothel, so he felt a little cramped. But among the people who saw the madam fawning over Qinglong Siming and the women in the brothel who were drunk and dreaming around, there was no shortage of monks. Listening to the sounds of warblers and swallows all around, I felt something, but I didn't seem to feel anything. "Is this your first time for Brother Jiang to come to a place like this? It doesn't matter what happens once and then again. Don't worry, I won't tell Nalan Xue." Seeing Jiang Lin's body tense all the time, Qinglong Si walked into Chunxiang Pavilion. Ming couldn't help but tease Jiang Lindao, and gave Jiang Lin an "I understand" look. "The consumption here shouldn't be low, right?" Jiang Lin looked at the surrounding furnishings. The pear wood that was over a century old and can be used as a material for refining weapons, the incense with the slightest fragrance and hint of spiritual energy, and there was no trace of variegated color on the ground. , a carpet with exquisite workmanship that can even be used as a utensil. In his hand is a luminous cup made of at least second-level rare materials, as well as the aura-filled nectar in the cup. These all have the slightest trace of the enjoyment of mortal nobles, but they are many levels higher than these enjoyments. Imagine that the three-color python, the lowest level of which is the golden elixir stage, was just a dish on the table. This gave Jiang Lin some understanding of the monk's luxury. But what makes Jiang Lin feel strange is that he, who has always been diligent and frugal, did not reject it when faced with all this, but instead felt a sense of enjoyment. "Brother, please enjoy yourself and don't talk about money. Money is just a bastard. Let's earn it after we spend it. Come on, come on, Brother Jiang, try the cod. This is the cod in the cold pond in the far north, especially this kind of repaired fish." Because, a cod with spiritual intelligence is hard to find. Only Baihualou in the entire Qinglong City can eat it." Qinglong Siming didn't have any shadow of a monk at this time, but he was a bit like a noble among mortals. Then??It means to show off in front of one's friends. This made Jiang Lin couldn't help but take another look at Qinglong Simin, then picked up a piece of cod and put it into his mouth.
