About me traveling to the world of immortality but finding ways to surf the Internet

Chapter 134 Ning Cheng

Although Ningcheng has heard about it for a long time. But seeing it with his own eyes, Yang Yuyao was still surprised by the prosperity of this city. It was already night when they entered the city, and the lights in the city were as bright as those bustling metropolises that Yang Yuyao had seen on TV in his original world.

On the road, which is almost as spacious as Jinyang City, there is a constant flow of horse-drawn carriages and rickshaws. There are even special horse paths set aside for people to gallop their horses and rush for escort. Even though it was night, it was still bustling with people. Yang Yuyao suddenly felt uneasy, wondering how many people would be affected if they fought in a prosperous part of the city. In order to avoid such a thing from happening, you can only stay away from the downtown area before the fighting breaks out completely. As he got closer to the city center, Yang Yuyao's nerves became more and more tense. Even if he knew, Bai Lingxue couldn't do it so quickly.

Perhaps sensing the young man's uneasiness, He Qianqing reached out and took Yang Yuyao's hand. The hands were clasped together, and the body temperature of one person was transferred to the other person's hand through the palms. Although it was just a small movement, Yang Yuyao was miraculously encouraged, and his tense heartstrings relaxed a little.

"Master, which inn are we staying at today?" After entering Ningcheng, He Qianqing handed Tu Shan a piece of paper with a route map written on it. At first, Yang Yuyao thought it was a certain inn where He Qianqing had stayed before. However, when the carriage route gradually moved away from the streets where merchants gathered, Yang Yuyao realized that today seemed a little unusual.

"We are not staying at the inn today." He Qianqing hugged Yang Yuyao, kissed his eyes, and said with a smile, "Didn't you say you wanted to see the sea? Ningcheng happens to have a sea, so I bought a house here for my teacher."

"It's... it's not necessary!" Yang Yuyao said in panic after hearing such a reason, "It's not necessary, it's too extravagant!"

"No, it's just a small house. Not to mention that Ningcheng's business is developed, both for mortals and monks. In the future, our logistics and banks will develop, and we will probably need to come here. There is a house where we can set up formations. It will be more convenient." He Qianqing explained, successfully convincing Yang Yuyao that he did not spend money randomly just to please Yang Yuyao, so he spent a lot of money and bought a house.

However, when the carriage approached the location of the house, Yang Yuyao began to suspect that it was not the small house that He Qianqing said he had bought. Yang Yuyao himself does not have a strong desire for a house, nor has he studied any real estate information. For him, having a stable place to live for a long time is enough. The higher requirements are to be able to access the Internet, have a big bed for him to roll around, and have a comfortable bathroom. He doesn't care whether it is rented, bought or allocated by the work unit.

When others want to buy a house, most of them hope to have a stable house that belongs to them, will not be affected by work, and does not need to depend on the landlord's face. After all, except for people who move frequently, it is normal to live in a house for decades. But for Yang Yuyao in his original time, he himself could not live that long. Therefore, such a long period of time is not very attractive to him, so even if it is just a modified carriage, he can live satisfactorily.

Just because he didn't know much about the commercial housing information didn't mean that Yang Yuyao couldn't analyze it based on the information he saw. Now they were surrounded by towering walls, turning the road into a huge maze. Of course, ordinary people's houses will have walls, but they won't be that high or that long. The people who live here are obviously either rich or noble, and the houses here can't be small.

However, it is also possible that in He Qianqing's view, these are still not big houses. He Qianqing was born into a civil servant family in a country that had been annexed by the Xia Kingdom. Although the country was a small country, its standards were not small. Many generations of the He family have been officials. When He Qianqing was young, several members of the He family served as important ministers in the court. As for the He family's ancestral home, there are more than a hundred people in the He family alone. Each descendant who gets married and starts a business will be assigned to an independent courtyard, as well as various servants and servants. A house that can accommodate so many people cannot be small. In comparison, these deep courtyard mansions here are indeed not that big.

Tushan finally stopped the carriage in front of a tall gate. Yang Yuyao got out of the carriage and looked at the house. There were small doors on both sides of the gate. In front was a spacious road, and beyond that was There is a frozen lake. Perhaps because of the large area, Yang Yuyao saw the gates of other houses from a very, very far away location. I don't know whether it's because this is a high-end residential area or because it's late at night, but there's no one on this road. However, this made Yang Yuyao feel safe.

They just stood there for a short while before the door of the house opened with a creak. A young man dressed as a butler and two maids opened the door. Yang Yuyao tensed up and found them. No, it's not a real person.

"Puppet? A puppet made by senior Zhou Cangjing?" Yang Yuyao asked in surprise.

"Oh?, Xiaoyao, you can actually recognize it at a glance?" He Qianqing was a little surprised. The puppets made by Zhou Cangjing have always been famous for being extremely lifelike. Not only their appearance, movements, reactions and even language are almost the same as real people, they would even look different if they were anyone else. You may not be able to recognize that this is a puppet and not a real person, but Yang Yuyao can even recognize who did it.

"I have seen the puppet Cuixiang made by Zhou Cangjing in Cangjing's Secret Realm before. The production technique is very similar." Yang Yuyao replied. "Especially the eyes, he even asked me to guess."

He Qianqing was a little surprised that Yang Yuyao could chat so much with a stranger he had just met. He then remembered that his disciple used white phosphorus as a disguise when he entered the secret realm. Because it was not his real face, he would feel relaxed when getting along with others. Quite a few. The same was true when Yang Yuyao used the appearance of Gu Yuan. But if it is his own face, he will remain silent most of the time when facing strangers or even people he is not very familiar with, unless others take the initiative to ask questions and Yang Yuyao has to answer them.

"Let's go in together, this is one of your homes." He Qianqing said to Yang Yuyao with a smile. Outdoors, even if there is no one around, He Qianqing will still restrain his behavior a lot, and he will not do any behavior that would make people doubt his relationship with Yang Yuyao.

"Okay." Yang Yuyao replied in a low voice, and suddenly his heartbeat began to accelerate inexplicably.

The puppet butler and the puppet maid greeted them respectfully. Almost at the same time, a puppet boy who was also a puppet, but whose workmanship was obviously much rougher, came out of the side door to take over their carriage. It would put the carriage in the right place and bring the red comet into the stable.

From the moment he arrived nearby, Yang Yuyao sensed that some protective formations had been set up in this house, but they were definitely not the work of He Qianqing. It is estimated that just as He Qianqing entrusted others to help purchase this house, the formations inside were either left by the previous owner, or He Qianqing entrusted his friends to help set up some. Although monks can use external incarnations after reaching the Void Refining Realm, there are still very few people who use it regularly. In addition to fighting, most monks would not summon an external incarnation to do anything else. Even He Qianqing is like this. Not everyone uses their clones as super useful labor force like Yang Yuyao. Not to mention anything else, the spiritual power is not enough.

When he first entered the house, Yang Yuyao was a little confused. He felt that he could not distinguish the specific uses of these houses. He felt that if there was no one to guide him, he might get lost. Yang Yuyao was not a road warrior. On the contrary, he had a good sense of direction. It was just the first time he entered a house with such a structure that he was a little overwhelmed.

But Yang Yuyao soon realized that his worries were unnecessary. How could He Qianqing, who wanted to weld himself and Yang Yuyao together, arrange a separate room for him to live in? Two people live together, and there are puppet maids waiting to serve outside. As long as there is enough time, Yang Yuyao can slowly adapt to living in such a house.

Yang Yuyao always knew that He Qianqing had made a lot of concessions to accommodate him. If it weren't for Yang Yuyao, even if some people in the Qingfeng Sect disappointed him and no longer wanted to stay, he could have joined any of the other ten sects and would have been treated as an honored guest and welcomed him politely. Even a sect like Wanhua Sect, which is dominated by female cultivators, would probably be fine. Not to mention other things, how could a normal monk travel around in a carriage? Fortunately, He Qianqing also enjoyed it, otherwise Yang Yuyao would have even more uneasy conscience.

So in contrast, Yang Yuyao is also trying hard to adapt to some of He Qianqing's lifestyle, accepting He Qianqing to comb his hair and choose clothes, and even choose incense to smoke his clothes. If it were him, he wouldn't mess with these things. Although Yang Yuyao has excellent aesthetics, he can be simple in himself. If he were not wearing black clothes with no other colors in this world, it would give people a bad association and make people suspect that he is trying to hook up in secret. , Yang Yuyao definitely wears this often. But He Qianqing was quite sophisticated in these matters.

Well, it should be said that most men in this world are like this if they have spare money. Although Yang Yuyao has not had in-depth contact with too many people, he can still get a little idea of ​​it through some of the products on the market. Yang Yuyao has never seen perfume in this world, only similar scented dew, but the usage is completely different from perfume. What is closer to perfume are various kinds of incense. People in this world pursue fragrance even more than people in Yang Yuyao's original world.

Unless otherwise requested, people in this world will try their best to scent their bodies, hair, clothing, and even their homes. There are incense specially used for residences, and they are also made into various shapes. In addition to incense sticks, tower incense, pill incense, etc., there are also shapes of auspicious animals and flowers. Incense burners used to hold incense come in various shapes and materials.

In terms of fragrance, in addition to neutral fragrances that can be used by both men and women, the types of incense used by men in this world are comparable to those used by women. In addition, both men and women have a preference for wearing sachets.

In this world, delicate men not only love fragrance, but also care for their beards. Although there are some like He Qianqing who do not grow beards, there are also many who grow beards. Therefore, there are various medicinal liquids and ointments specially designed to care for beards, and even special accessories and combs, so that men with beards in this world can strive to become beautiful men.

If you think about it carefully, He Qianqing's delicacies are just right and not too exaggerated. Likewise, Yang Yuyao didn't think there was anything wrong with He Qianqing taking care of these aspects of his affairs. At least he wouldn't feel bad about it.

Yang Yuyao thinks that he doesn't understand love, but there are no emotional mentors in this world. Even if there were, Yang Yuyao would be too embarrassed to consult. He could only rely on his own understanding to get along with He Qianqing. He Qianqing would give in for him, so he could do the same, but if this concession made one of the two parties uncomfortable or even painful, or both of them felt depressed, then Yang Yu Yao felt that the two of them were not so suitable, and it would be better to separate instead of being together reluctantly. At least for now, he and He Qianqing are getting along very happily.

The rooms were arranged, but they didn't take a rest so quickly. Before the night got late, they set up several more formations to avoid being beaten into the house.

The night was uneventful. The next day, He Qianqing planned to take Yang Yuyao to Dongfeng Logistics in Ningcheng to have a look, as if they didn't know what was waiting for them.

During the day, Ningcheng was bustling with people and extremely lively. Even on the road outside the gate of the house purchased by He Qianqing and the open space by the lake, people set up stalls during the day, selling various products. There are also people who shave heads, repair shoes, and even twist noodles. But probably in order not to disturb the nobles in these deep mansions, the vendors in this area do not shout.

They did not take a carriage, but walked out as if wandering around. Although they knew that the real purpose of this trip was not to inspect the logistics site, Yang Yuyao still felt that this was a bad idea. Because of He Qianqing's idea, Yang Yuyao felt that he should be called a silencer and stopper today.

No matter where they went, as long as someone noticed him, the originally bustling street suddenly became quiet. Everyone looked at him with eyes that burned holes in him. Some bold men and women even rushed over desperately to think. Want to have a close encounter with him.

"Little brother... ugh!" Yang Yuyao used his spiritual power to deflect away a woman who was throwing herself at him without expression. Looking at the crowd that was blocking the road and getting closer and closer to him, he suddenly understood why. Originally, there would be stories in the world about a beautiful man who was frightened by his passionate admirer. It's terrible. If his heart was as bad as in the original world, he would have died of a heart attack by now. He really wanted to run away at all costs, even if his strength was exposed.

Although he kept screaming in his heart that he wanted to escape, and although he did not dare to raise his eyes to look at the crowd that repeatedly surrounded him, Yang Yuyao still resisted the urge to escape and kept himself in everyone's sight.

"Teacher..." Yang Yuyao looked at He Qianqing in fear, but found that He Qianqing was no longer around him. Not long after, those wolf-like crowds also disappeared, leaving only a few people of different ages and genders with him on the street that suddenly disappeared from life.
