Chapter 534 Small Bridge and Flowing Water·Fuyue Tower
"Why do I feel like everyone on the street is looking at me..."

"illusion."

"Don't I look particularly stupid when I look like this..."

"Oh, stop thinking about it, it's nothing!"

On the streets of the inner city of Jizhou City, Chen Jing was coaxed by Qiao Youning as if he were a child. Although Qiao Youning always spoke in a serious tone, Chen Jing knew that this was absolutely nonsense... He went out with this thing in broad daylight. That can't be described by four words: standing out from the crowd.

Passers-by don't even look at it twice.

There are so many people staring at it!

If it weren't for the temple mark on the jade plaque around Chen Jing's waist, he would have been surrounded by people like a monkey, so it's no wonder he felt like a fool. This look is true in the inner city of Jiju City. It’s a mudslide in the fashion industry.

"Sister Qiao, why do I always feel like someone is talking to me in my ears..."

"Someone is talking to you?" Qiao Youning was startled, and turned to look at Chen Jing, "Isn't it Lord Ejia who sent you a message from thousands of miles away to tell you to go back? The seal of the Buddha Mother shouldn't be so early..."

"No." Chen Jing interrupted Qiao Youning's conjecture and pointed to his square head with a serious face, "The voice told me to go back to my hometown in Gotham quickly. He promised that Batman would not beat me up."

Hearing this, Qiao Youning couldn't help laughing, then she put on a serious face and raised her hand to touch Chen Jing's square head.

"Don't talk nonsense, this is so beautiful!"

"Sister Qiao, I suspect there must be something wrong with your aesthetics, or else you just like some kind of weird play..."

Jizhou City is divided into inner city and outer city.

The inner city is closer to the temple, and most of the people living here are old descendants, or rich and powerful people, while the outer city is the residence of ordinary people. Although it is not as beautiful as the jade towers and palaces in the inner city, it is still full of flowers. It did have the fireworks that Chen Jing and the others were familiar with.

After all, the number of residents living in the outer city accounts for 90.00% of the total population of Jizhou City. Therefore, although the outer city is not as elegant as the inner city, the lively and noisy atmosphere is much better. This is what Qiao Youning likes to play in the outer city the most. one of the reasons.

Walking in the market in the outer city of Jizhou City, Chen Jingdu felt as if he had traveled to ancient times. The passers-by were all dressed in ancient costumes, and the courtyards and pavilions he saw were all antique. Even the streets he walked on, They are all paved with bluestone slabs, and they charge admission fees even in scenic spots.

“The mutton soup here is particularly delicious! I’ll take you to check in!”

"Okay, clock in!"

"I almost forgot! Let me buy you some candied haws on the road! Their candied haws are made from white hawthorn, so sweet!"

"Okay, buy it!"

"Let's buy more. You can bring some to Wei Nan and the others when you go back. That girl and Yan Que have always wanted to come to Ji Zhoudu to play, but unfortunately they haven't had the chance... You can bring them with you next time! I'll be your tour guide. !”

It seemed that Qiao Youning took Chen Jing out shopping just for the sake of shopping. He either went to this restaurant to drink soup and meat, went to the market to buy candied haws, or went to a particularly inconspicuous alley to show Chen Jing some fairy tofu.

Fortunately, Chen Jing is not a mortal but an ancient descendant. No matter how much food enters his stomach, it will be digested in a short time, so the two of them can truly eat from day to night.

After dark.

Chen Jing was taken to the southern outer city of Jizhou Capital by Qiao Youning.

This place is like a scene of a water town in the south of the Yangtze River. The small river that runs through the entire southern city is winding. The widest point is only three feet, and the narrowest point...

"Miss Young Master, please sit still!"

"Uncle, if you can't squeeze through, don't force yourself to squeeze through!" Chen Jing, who was sitting at the stern of the boat, couldn't stand it anymore. Listening to the sound of the small wooden boat colliding with both sides of the bank, he felt that the small wooden boat would be torn apart in the next second. Fragmented.

God knows how this damn place in Jiju City was built in the first place. For example, the southern part of the city where Chen Jing and the others are located, looking at the small bridges and flowing water, fresh and elegant, looks like the Suzhou water town in the world, but in fact... this place It’s almost as weird as Yongye City.

The revetments on both sides of the river were buzzing, and many shadow-like hands squeezed out from the cracks in the bricks, swaying like reeds on the water bank.When a ship passes by here, they will invariably stretch themselves until they grab hold of the passing boat and keep pulling, like children playing with the passing boats as toys.

To be honest, this scene does look quite weird. If you look at it, outsiders might think it is caused by pollutants, but the residents living here seem to have been used to all this.

Whether it was the old man who was punting the boat or the passers-by, they all looked like they were used to it. Even children no more than four or five years old dared to sit on the shore and catch those shadows to play with.

"Sir, don't worry, old man, I've been running a boat here for more than 50 years, and I've never had any accidents..."

The old man who spoke seemed to be about the same age as Chen Boxu. There was a mark of blessing from the Buddha on his neck. His muscles were bulging under his dark skin, making him look particularly powerful.

"Here in the Nanhe River, Lao Ke and I are famous for being fast in rowing. You can go wherever you want, Mr. and Mrs., even if you want to go to Beicheng, I can bring you there within a stick of incense!"

"Let's go to Yishanwu." Qiao Youning pushed away the lychee-like fruit in her hand and raised her hand to Chen Jing's mouth. "There are fireworks shows there every day. I often go to see them!"

Chen Jing cooperated obediently and opened his mouth, and a scarlet slit opened in his square head instantly, like the bloody mouth of some kind of monster, catching the fruit Qiao Youning threw in to feed him.

"We can eat, have fun and watch the fireworks show... I even want to go through immigration procedures and come here..."

"Immigrate?" the old man punting the boat asked curiously, "Young master is from the inner city, do you want to move to the outer city?"

"Absolutely." Chen Jing smacked his lips with satisfaction, then opened his big mouth to show that it was delicious and ordered another one, "It's too cold in the inner city, but it's still lively in the outer city."

"Well, everyone has his own thing."

The old man slowly pushed the wooden boat across a stone bridge. When he laughed, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were squeezed together. His voice was hoarse and strong, and his calm accent sounded more like that of a middle-aged man.

"People in the inner city think that life in the outer city is lively, and people in the outer city still think that the inner city is classy. For example, my ineffective son wants to move to the inner city. He says that the only way to live in the inner city is to Only by entering there can you be considered superior to others..."

Listening to the old man punting the boat talking about his daily life, Chen Jing couldn't help but look back at Qiao Youning, who was wearing a veil.

"You see, people are the same everywhere. Deep down, they like to be divided into three or six categories. They always feel that only by being superior to others can they be happy. In fact, that's all..."

Qiao Youning smiled softly and nodded in agreement, then opened another "lychee" that was as green as a gem.

"Open your mouth."

At this moment, there was a sudden and earth-shaking loud noise in the distance, and a ray of silver light streaked across the sky like a shooting star without warning, instantly lighting up the night sky outside the city of Jidai City... The so-called fire, trees and silver flowers, a flash of youthful beauty. , I’m afraid that’s the case.

"Thank you."

"Ok?"

Seeing Qiao Youning's eyes full of doubts outside the veil, Chen Jing smiled and explained a few words, slowly stood up and walked to the bow of the ship, stretching comfortably.

"I have been busy with business during this period. It seems that I have not been this relaxed for a long time. Sister Qiao is reliable and knows how to take me out to relax..."

There was another earth-shaking loud noise, accompanied by the cheers and laughter of children coming and going, and scarlet firework fireworks bloomed in the night sky again, illuminating the outer city as bright as day in an instant.

"Baozhu Yunjin! I like this firework the most!"

The old man who was punting the boat suddenly slowed down and couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the bright fireworks in the sky, while Qiao Youning on the side was also ready to say something.

Suddenly, a group of naughty children ran past on the shore, making faces at Chen Jing as they ran.

"Square head, ha poke, can't escape when the carriage comes."

"..."
