Chapter 820
Jiangcheng is a unique city on the plain outside the mountains.

Like a treasure land surrounded by mountains.

Even though it was nighttime, the bustling streets were crowded with people. Because it was close to the wide Lancang River, the river city was well-developed in water transportation and had a prosperous population.

Since ancient times, Jiangcheng has been said to be noble in the east, rich in the north, soldier in the south, and poor in the west.

Because most of the officials of Jiangcheng and the family members of some high-ranking officials in other cities live in the east, and they are full of luxury. Most of the people driving on the streets here are tall horses, or eight-carrying sedan chairs. There are few pedestrians, so they can live in the east. For people in Jiangcheng, it often represents a kind of identity.

On the north side, there are rich merchants from Jiangcheng. The freight trade near the river is prosperous all year round. And these rich merchants in the north, in the eyes of the people of Jiangcheng, always smelt of copper.

As a result, people in the north often head eastward, or get married, or give gifts to exchange for official hats, and some people buy houses in the east with huge amounts of silver.

The so-called Southern Soldiers are because [-] Iron Blood Guards of Jiangcheng are stationed on Luofeng Mountain in the south, and they are directly under the jurisdiction of the Jiangcheng Mansion Master, and the families of the Iron Blood Guards mostly live in the south. Although it is not as good as the east or north, but People who live in the south, but not everyone dares to provoke them.

After all, all soldiers are arrogant and full of blood and courage, so who dares to cause trouble.

The last West Poor refers to the west of Jiangcheng, where the poorest people gathered in the entire city, most of them are ordinary people, or they do handyman for the dignitaries, or do some small handicrafts, or sell singing and selling themselves, in short In order to survive, it is difficult and miserable.

Songhe Medicine Sage, as a nobleman of the villa, often comes to Jiangcheng to buy some special medicinal materials, and also comes here to visit pharmacists to exchange a little bit, so he is quite familiar with Jiangcheng.

After telling Lin Fei about the landscape and layout of Jiangcheng, the latter just nodded and walked away. Although Songhe Medicine Sage is quite intelligent, he couldn't guess why the young man in front of him came here.
It's just that he didn't dare to ask more.

There is no curfew in Jiangcheng, so there are many pedestrians at night.

The two went to the west from the city gate, and the scenery in front of them gradually changed from prosperous and rich to simple and desolate. The so-called poverty in the west seems to be true.

After walking for half an hour, Lin Fei stopped beside a blacksmith shop.

And Songhe Yaosheng couldn't help but stop in his tracks.

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. The old blacksmith Xu Fugui had just finished beating and making a few horseshoes. He casually picked up a rag from the shelf, wiped the sweat from his forehead, then sat on the chair behind him, took out a dry pipe and smoked a few times. , the chest that was panting quickly, and then slowly calmed down.

At his age, he is no longer what he used to be, his strength is getting weaker and weaker, and it is a little bit reluctant to be a blacksmith.

But he only knows this skill, and he has to persist in order to make a living.

Seeing Lin Fei and Lin Fei stopped at the door, he couldn't help but his eyes lit up, thinking that there was business again, he hurriedly got up and asked, "My lord, do you need anything?"

"You, rent a house?"

Lin Fei pointed to the writing on the wooden board outside and asked.

Xu Fugui nodded immediately, and said: "Yes, it's just a bit rudimentary. It was originally a warehouse for storing sundries, but it was cleaned up a little later. I'm afraid you won't like it, but the rent is extremely cheap."

He saw that although Lin Fei was wearing simple clothes, he had a kind of elegant demeanor all over his body, so he naturally thought that Lin Fei was from an extraordinary background.

Looking at Songhe Yaosheng in the back with a green hairpin on his head and a luxurious jade pendant on his waist, it confirmed the guess in his heart.

But Xu Fugui didn't think about it, Lin Fei shook his head slightly, and said: "It's okay, my father lost money doing business in the city, and now he is in a hurry to go back to his hometown to raise money. If I can find a cheap place to live for now, and discuss business matters after my father comes back, I will rent it for half a year."

"This... as long as the young master likes it, I have no objection."

Xu Fugui smiled wryly.

Lin Fei nodded and glanced at Songhe Yaosheng. The other party immediately took out copper coins and paid half a year's rent.

Then Xu Fugui took the two of them and walked towards the backyard of the blacksmith shop. The yard is huge but desolate. Many places are overgrown with weeds, and there are old wood and blue bricks. The life of the poor is like this, and many things feel useful. , just keep it and don’t dare to lose it.

In the southeast corner of the backyard is the house for rent.

It is in the shade, and the windows are all paperless, and there are many cobwebs inside. It is really not ordinary dilapidated. It seems that if the door is pushed a little harder, it will die.

Xu Fugui smiled awkwardly, with a trace of nervousness in his eyes, probably because he was afraid that Lin Fei would go back on his word.

Fortunately, after Lin Fei went in and turned around, he said, "Let's just go here, it's a bit dirty, but I don't have the ability to pay too much attention to it now, butler, go back to your place to rest, and come to me tomorrow."

Songhe Medicine Sage didn't dare to ask more questions, he nodded respectfully and left.

As for the Rongxin Pill, you can only ask for it tomorrow.

After he left, Lin Fei cleaned the rented room briefly, and gave Xu Fugui more than a dozen coins to help him buy some worn-out quilts, and then stayed here.

Although Xu Fugui wanted to ask Lin Fei's family what kind of business they were in, and how they lost money, he also knew that this was a scandal about the other party's family. .

It was late at night in a flash.

Lin Fei sat on the bed, as quiet as a stone sculpture, and began to quietly practice the Taikoo Hegemony Art.

In the Qiankun Cave, I saw the Four Absolute Sword Immortals performing the sword of birth, old age, sickness and death. This sword is unique, unique and mysterious, but tempers the deepest and most ordinary aura in the world.

If one wants to inherit the Four Absolute Swords, one has to come to the mundane world and experience the four Absolute Swords in the midst of joys and sorrows, birth, old age, sickness and death, and then one can have the honor of inheriting them.

Although the shabby room was dilapidated, it was in Lin Fei's mind.

If you don't enter into great compassion and great suffering, how can you see through the world.

Unknowingly, seven days passed, although Lin Fei went deep into the house, he also got to know the situation of Xu Fugui's family. This person has a son and a daughter, the son's name is Xu Hu, and the daughter's name is Xu Feng'er.

Xu Hu is married, his wife is a dutiful woman who seldom goes out and is already pregnant, while Xu Fenger is just sixteen this year, and she is very handsome, so many people come to propose marriage, I wonder if it is Xu Fugui who wants It was Xu Feng'er who rejected her choice of a good family, and she hasn't been engaged yet.

On the whole street, the Xu family is very ordinary.

Xu Fugui needs to work very hard to make ends meet. Fortunately, Lin Fei not only practiced daily, but also helped him with some things when he was bored, so he became acquainted with this family after coming and going.

Life is simple, but there is comfort in the ordinary.

Although this is the atmosphere that Lin Fei originally wanted, it is just how the Four Absolute Swords conceived and enlightened in this vulgar world, but it stumped Lin Fei for a while...
