275 Jianye City
Su Chen stayed at Su Xian Mansion's home in Zhouzhuang for several days and was about to set off for Jianye City. The remnants of the Demon Evil Alliance appeared in the Gusu area, and there were many in Jianye. If something happened to the Ning Prince's Mansion, it would be a little trouble.
"Young Master, although this small remnant of the Demon Evil Alliance has been eliminated, there are probably still many other remnants, wandering around and maybe appearing again. I am worried that there will be other evil cultivators who come to Su Xian Mansion to cause trouble again. Why not, I will stay in Su Xian Mansion for a while, as short as half a year, as long as several years. When the Demon Evil Alliance is completely eradicated, I will go to you."
Anu thought about the decision for a few days before making it. She wanted to go to Jianye with Su Chen, but Su Xian Mansion was still unstable. Su Chen also had another sect patrol mission, so she could not stay in Gusu for too long, only she could stay.
"Well, that's fine! Are you using enough elixirs for cultivation?"
Su Chen thought for a while and asked.
After leaving like this, he was actually a little worried, worried that other evil cultivators would come to him. Anu stayed here and secretly protected Su Xian Mansion, which was undoubtedly the safest.
"Young Master, don't worry. I got a treasure chest of elixirs in the Demon Cave Treasures of the Demon Evil Alliance. I counted it and half of them were elixirs used by foundation-building monks to practice. Even if I stayed here for ten or eight years, I would not delay my practice at all."
Anu smiled.
Then Su Chen said goodbye to Annu and set off alone. He rushed to Jianye along the way.
A few days later.
Su Chen flew with his sword and arrived at a beautiful and magnificent Jiangnan city.
Jianye City is located at the core fortress of the lower reaches of the river, with extremely developed shipping. Every day, hundreds of giant ships like giant beasts travel along the river to and from all over the Middle Land. The commerce and trade are extremely prosperous, and it is the leading city in Jiangnan.
The south of the Yangtze River has a vast territory with a large number of hundreds of counties, and the Wu County where Gusu is located is only one of them.
Among the hundreds of counties in the south of the Yangtze River, Jianye City is undoubtedly the most imperially magnificent city in the south. There is Chang'an in the north and Jianye in the south, second only to Chang'an in the north. It can be regarded as the deputy capital of the Tang Dynasty in the south.
Jianye City is built along the river, so the waterways are naturally extremely developed. The riverside is surrounded by blue waves and weeping willows, and the scenery is beautiful and magnificent.
The city has a grand and grand architecture, with huge gates, and the wide roads are paved with large pieces of bluestone. The roads in the city are well-connected, and luxurious carriages driven by eight horses can be driven by luxury horses and galloping from the main road.
When Su Chen arrived in Jianye City, he couldn't help but feel shocked when he saw the momentum of this city. Gusu County is also a prosperous water transport hub for Wu County, but compared to Jianye City, the gap is huge like a small family and a family of daughters.
The city has more than 400,000 or 500,000 people. On both sides of the street are a wide range of shops selling various expensive gold, silver jewelry, rouge, powder, and silk cloth.
Countless romantic young men, ladies of aristocratic families, great merchants, and tycoons were exploring and shopping on the streets, and they were catching up with a blink of an eye. The crowds were crowded with people everywhere.
Although the prosperity of Jianye City is not as good as that of the God-Captain Chang'an, it is not far from that of the same.
Therefore, the aristocratic families and wealthy families in the Jiangnan area were unable to go to Chang'an because of the long journey. They all liked to buy a property in Jianye City. The city was filled with the most identifiable and powerful families in more than 100 counties in Jiangnan. Any house was also a place where every inch of land was valuable. Ordinary people could not afford a house in Jianye City.
The northwest is the dock area, and freight transportation is busy.
To the north is the official residence, and the yamen runners are on high alert. They are the residences of the great lords and nobles and local officials in the Jiangnan area. Naturally, they are carved railings and jade buildings, which are magnificent and very grand.
To the east is the area where the aristocratic families live. Without a hundred years of accumulation, nobility for more than three generations of nobles can naturally not be called nobles of nobles of aristocratic families. Their rich mansions and courtyards are daunting and keeping a distance.
To the south is the mansion of a wealthy businessman, rich and rich businessmen love to compare face. If a wealthy man who has a wealthy family buys a small house here, it will definitely be more respectful. Occasionally, a wealthy man who spends a lot of money to build a mansion is a big deal to honor his family and is enviable.
On the west side are homes for generations of civilians, all of which are very dense houses. Any one of them lives with dozens of people and the environment is harsh. There are huge poor people like peddlers, pawns, small vendors, etc. After all, the whole city is full of rich people and nobles. There must be people from the bottom of the class to work. Otherwise, who will clean the toilet and clean the courtyard.
In addition, there are many gang heroes and gangs entrenched in the west of the city, with many masters. If gangs such as the Tianying Gate of Wujun come to Jianye City, it would be inconspicuous, and even waves would not be able to be lifted.
When he arrived at the central area of the city, a mansion covering an area of 100 acres was the mansion of Ning Wang. As a nobleman of the Li family, King Ning Wang is now the younger brother of His Majesty, and he ranks the most prominent prince, and he owns a grand mansion in this Jianye City.
But then again, Ning Wang was noble, but he had no title or real power. He was just a very high-ranking prince.
Jianye City is under the jurisdiction of the county magistrate, and officials are responsible for local government affairs.
Unless one day the emperor of Chang'an dies and he has no descendants to ascend the throne, the Ning King of Jianye City will be a leisurely prince in his life.
Su Chen flew down in a secluded place outside the city and then entered the city.
In the most prosperous area in Jianye City, a top teahouse not far from Ningwang Mansion, I lit a cup of fragrant tea, savored the light-scented tea, watched the grand occasion of Jianye City and the movements of Ningwang Mansion.
This place lasts three or four hours.
Su Chen was quite surprised.
As the capital of hundreds of counties in Jiangnan, Jianye has many monks who have experienced the mountain from various immortal sects to come to this city to "get down the mountain and experience the mountain".
Going down the mountain to experience is a task that must be done every few years for those who practice immortals in the foundation-building stage.
Although there is no spiritual cultivation needed by immortals in the mortal world, immortals are unwilling to stay too much in the mortal world.
However, the luck of the mortal world will still directly affect the luck of the immortal cultivation world in China. After all, before cultivators set foot on the immortal cultivation world, they were all mortals. If the mortal world is in chaos and decline, it will directly cut off the foundation of the immortal cultivation world in China.
Cultivators cannot always stay in seclusion at the mountain gate of the Immortal Sect, "not living in the world" and not asking about changes in the world. All Immortal Sects must take the initiative to shoulder the responsibility of maintaining order in the mortal world, and killing demons and eliminating demons is the most common thing.
In just a few hours, Su Chen saw several immortal cultivators with different cultivation levels, hurriedly entering and leaving Jianye City. If it were Chang'an City, there would probably be more cultivators who have experienced in the mortal world.
It's just that they can't tell their identities and origins.
Su Chen couldn't help but frown. This undoubtedly increased the difficulty of detecting the remnants of the Demon Evil Alliance in Jianye City.
He can't. When he meets one, he will go check his identities one by one.
Not long after, Su Chen saw another young cultivator from Shushan Sword Sect, one of the five major immortal sects in China, entered Jianye City.
This man was wearing an ordinary white robe, but he carried a sword bag of Shushan disciples around his waist, revealing his identity. In the immortal cultivation world of China, most monks recognize the symbols of the five great immortal sects.
The young foundation-building disciple of Shushan Sword Sect accidentally caught a glimpse of Su Chen sitting in the teahouse. He realized that Su Chen's cultivation was also a foundation-building realm, and he couldn't help but look surprised and held his fists and bowed.
Su Chen was stunned for a moment and quickly replied with a gift.
He used ordinary means to restrain his breath, like a mortal, but this could only be hidden from mortals and qi-refining cultivators with weak divine consciousness. It is still easy to see through the powerful divine consciousness power of the same-level foundation-building cultivators.
The monks of the Immortal Sect of Shushan seemed to be very familiar. They went up the teahouse and walked over to Su Chen and smiled: "I am here in Shushan Immortal Sect Luo Rong, come here to Jianye to practice and make friends with Taoists from various sects. How dare you ask the Lord, but local casual cultivators or disciples of the Immortal Sect who went down the mountain to practice?
