291 Bamboo shoots and the sky
Chapter 291
Feng Ming and the other three were very interested in these hot springs, so after asking for the direction, they headed straight to the location of the Zhiyang Hot Spring.
Quanchuan City is mountainous, and the Zhiyang Hot Spring is located in a mountain. When they arrived, they found that it was quite lively here, and Feng Ming liked to join in the fun the most.
"The temperature here is higher than other places. The so-called Zhiyang Hot Spring, it can't be magma drawn from the ground."
"There are quite a lot of people gathered in front, and they seem to be arguing about something."
Hundreds of cultivators gathered at the entrance of the Zhiyang Hot Spring. Many people, like Feng Ming, rushed over to join in the fun, and there were cultivators rushing behind.
Feng Ming saw two groups of cultivators arguing in the center. There was also a Shuang'er in the middle stamping his feet anxiously. He asked a cultivator next to him who was watching with great interest: "Brother, what are those people in the front doing?"
The cultivator being asked was also a young cultivator, a little handsome. Seeing the same young people, the cultivator introduced Feng Ming and the others enthusiastically:
"This is a challenge between the two sides to see who can stay in the Zhiyang Hot Spring longer. These two groups of cultivators are regular customers here. This is not the first time they have had such a competition. But every time they quarreled fiercely and refused to give in, everyone just watched it for fun."
"By the way, look over there, there are people opening the market to place bets on who will win this time."
"The two parties, one is Zhuo Xiuyang, a famous young master in our Quanchuan City, and the other is Zhao Rongkun, a young master from a noble family in another big city. The conflict between the two young masters has been going on for a long time, but now, the initial conflict is nothing."
Feng Ming knew there was gossip to talk about, and asked hurriedly: "What is the conflict that makes these two young masters quarrel so often? I heard that the entrance fee of the Zhiyang Hot Spring is not low. The two young masters are indeed rich young masters."
The cultivator laughed and said, "That's right, if it wasn't so, they wouldn't have taken the Zhiyang Hot Spring to compare time and time again. Speaking of The initial conflict was actually related to a pair of boys. I am talking about the pair in the middle. He is the young master of the Lu family in our city.
At first, Young Master Lu and Young Master Zhuo were childhood sweethearts. Everyone thought they would get married in the future. Unexpectedly, when Young Master Zhao Rongkun came to our city to play, he somehow fell in love with Young Master Lu, and their relationship quickly heated up.
Young Master Zhuo was not convinced, so he had a fight with Young Master Zhao Rongkun. "
Qiu Yi and Ji Yuan on the side also heard it with their eyes shining. They could easily identify the three parties mentioned by the cultivator from the group of cultivators in front.
The beautiful twins who tried to persuade the three parties must be the young master of the Yi family, one of the parties involved. The most elegantly dressed of the other two parties must be the two young masters who are jealous of the twins.
Feng Ming said something surprising, "This is the case of childhood sweethearts being no match for the one sent from heaven."
Although it was the first time for everyone to hear this saying, they understood what it meant as soon as they heard it. It was the most appropriate way to describe the three parties involved.
The cultivator next to him laughed out loud, "It's true that childhood sweethearts are no match for the one sent from heaven. Young Master Zhao Rongkun is the one sent from heaven. Young Master Zhuo, the childhood sweetheart, is really pitiful."
Bai Qiaomo smiled with his eyes squinted. Brother Ming's routine came again.
Feng Ming nodded repeatedly in agreement: "Master Zhuo is really pitiful. He finally raised his childhood sweetheart and waited for good things to happen to him. Who knew that someone would suddenly appear and snatch his love. Master Zhuo was extremely sad and angry. He vowed to be irreconcilable with Tianjiang and has been fighting with him since then.
Oh, I actually think that in the relationship between these three people, childhood sweethearts have become redundant. Look at the childhood sweetheart and Tianjiang. They are clearly in love and hate each other."
"Puff", "Puff", several bursts of laughter rang out on the side.
The cultivator who introduced the situation to Feng Ming and the others was stunned for a moment and then burst into laughter. He laughed so hard that he fell backwards. The more he looked at the situation of the three people, the more he found what Feng Ming said very interesting.
The cultivators who were not paying much attention to what Feng Ming and the others were saying were all amused by the conversation they overheard. Where did this funny person come from? He made the whole thing even more interesting.
Someone who was looking for trouble shouted at Master Zhuo and Master Zhao who were still making a fuss, "You two should stop fighting. Just pair up. Some people say that you are killing each other."
"What do you mean?"
Then someone brought up Feng Ming's sayings that childhood sweethearts are not as good as the one who fell in love with you, and that childhood sweethearts are redundant, and that childhood sweethearts and the one who fell in love with each other, and the laughter around them suddenly became louder.
To be honest, apart from the beginning, Master Zhuo and Master Zhao did not argue over Master Lu. They just had a quarrel. The reason for the quarrel became secondary. They would quarrel whenever they met. Zhuo Xiuyang and Zhao Rongkun, who were
arguing and even pulling each other's collars, heard these words and realized what they meant. They looked at each other and suddenly felt that their eyes were hot. They jumped back in shock, as if they were deliberately avoiding suspicion.
When Zhuo Xiuyang realized that his behavior was unusual, he jumped up and shouted angrily: "Who? Who is talking nonsense? Are they blind?"
Everyone was looking for the source. Feng Ming was not afraid of trouble. He pushed the person in front of him and walked in carelessly: "Are you calling me, Mr. Zhuo? The source of this statement is here."
Zhuo Xiuyang was so angry that he wanted to beat Feng Ming: "Who told you to talk nonsense? Do you know that I have a grudge against this guy? Change your words!"
The young master of the Lu family also echoed: "Brother Xiuyang and Brother Rongkun are not such people. I am sorry to Brother Xiuyang."
Zhao Rongkun stood aside with his arms folded and his lips pursed, not saying a word, staring at Feng Ming.
Later, Ji Yuan and Qiu Yi were trying so hard to hold back their laughter that their stomachs almost hurt. Being with Feng Ming, they would never be bored. He could make things happen even when there was nothing to do.
However, in their opinion, there seemed to be something wrong between Zhuo Xiuyang and Zhao Rongkun. Could it be that Feng Ming's nonsense really hit the mark? Otherwise, why would they react so strongly? No
matter how they looked at it, they felt that Lu Shao's twins were a bit redundant.
Feng Ming then turned his gaze to the young master of the Lu family and asked, "Do you feel that you have let Zhuo Shao down?"
Lu Shao didn't understand what Feng Ming meant, but since he just said that, he nodded.
Feng Ming clapped his hands and said, "That's right. Since you have let Master Zhuo down, then let Master Zhao go and promote the marriage between Master Zhuo and Master Zhao. Then both of them will be even."
Master Lu was stunned.
Zhuo Xiuyang's face was flushed red, and Zhao Rongkun didn't move, but he was grinding his teeth, as if he was thinking about where to beat up Feng Ming, the troublemaker.
Young Master Lu finally reacted, and then he looked like he was about to cry, as if he was bullied by Feng Ming. Feng Ming immediately jumped back: "I didn't touch you, everyone here can testify for me that I didn't bully this Young Master Lu, I was just kindly giving you an idea, otherwise Young Master Lu has never considered how to compensate Young Master Zhuo?"
Everyone present was led by Feng Ming to think, and according to his logic, isn't it true? In recent years, no matter how Young Master Lu persuaded Young Master Zhuo and Young Master Zhao, the trouble between the two young masters has become more and more serious.
Besides, Master Lu is a cultivator in the late stage of the Qi Condensation Realm, so how could he be so fragile, looking as if he was about to fall down due to sadness.
"You..." Master Lu was so angry at Feng Ming's words that his chest was heaving. Realizing that he couldn't win an argument with Feng Ming, he could only turn his head and look at Zhuo Xiuyang eagerly, "Brother Xiuyang, do you also think I did something wrong?"
Feng Ming spoke again, "Hey, are you going to force Master Zhuo to admit that you are right, and then you will accept everything with peace of mind?"
Zhuo Xiuyang really wanted to habitually respond that he was not wrong, but was led astray by Feng Ming's words. He couldn't help but ask himself, is this the case?
His reaction made Lu Shao anxious, and he stretched out his hand to pull Zhuo Xiuyang's arm: "Brother Xiuyang, say something."
Someone in the crowd laughed: "It seems that they really want to force Zhuo Shao to admit that he is right. Good man, is it possible that Lu Shao himself has never felt that he is wrong and has let Zhuo Shao down?"
When he was about to fall into a dilemma, Zhao Rongkun finally moved, strode over, and said: "Enough, do you want to compete again? If not, hurry up Let's go, what are you dithering about? Zhuo, just do it, are you not a man? "
These words are really poisonous, Zhuo Xiuyang was really provoked to jump up and down: "Asshole, you are not a man, who said that I can't compete with you, I'm going to enter the Zhiyang Hot Spring now, watch me, if you are my friend, you can bet on me to win, understand?"
I don't know if it was to get rid of the embarrassment, Zhuo Xiuyang yelled and rushed into the entrance.
Lu Shao didn't have time to catch him, and turned to look at Zhao Rongkun, who unexpectedly walked towards the entrance.
Lu Shao wanted to follow him in, but his body couldn't stand the Zhiyang Hot Spring at all.
Qiu Yi blinked his eyes and whispered to Ji Yuan: "Senior Brother Ji, why do I feel that something is not right the more I look at it?"
Ji Yuan nodded, he thought so too.
The other onlookers also had strange looks on their faces. The whole thing, since Feng Ming came out and threw out the story of childhood friends and natural enemies falling in love and killing each other, has taken a very strange direction.
The cultivator who introduced the situation to Feng Ming and the others squeezed to Feng Ming's side and said, "Brother, how did you see that? We never noticed it."
Feng Ming blinked and said, "Did you take it seriously? I just said it casually."
The surroundings were buzzing. This guy was too abominable. After leading everyone on a wrong path, he actually said that he just said it casually. But everyone thought that what he said before was too right and there was no turning back.
Feng Ming looked around. Some people looked as if they wanted to eat people, so he ran away.
He took Bai Qiaomo and ran to the entrance: "Let's go into the hot spring. I'll talk to you all when I have time."
Ji Yuan and Qiu Yi laughed and ran in.
There was a commotion outside. On the one hand, people criticized Feng Ming, the nonsense guy who came out of nowhere, and on the other hand, they bet on how long the four people could stay in the Zhiyang Hot Spring.
As for Lu Shao and his partner, no one paid any attention to him. There were so many people, but he seemed to be standing alone. He couldn't blend into the atmosphere at all. Lu
Shao almost broke his teeth, but he could only stand there stubbornly and wait, because Zhuo Xiuyang and Zhao Rongkun couldn't stay in there for too long.
As for the four strange cultivators, hum, they must stay for a shorter time. The cultivators who took the Zhiyang Hot Spring for the first time couldn't stand it for long.
Feng Ming laughed as soon as he entered the entrance. He was actually just watching the excitement.
Well, he did notice that the young master Lu Shuang'er had a bit of a taste for tea, so he tried to smooth things over. He didn't expect the two young masters to react so strongly. Maybe what he said came true.
He didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, really.
Bai Qiaomo rubbed Feng Ming's head with a smile in his eyes. He didn't think so at first, but after hearing Ming's nonsense, he also felt that Ming's brother might have really hit the nail on the head.
Hearing the loud laughter behind, Zhuo Xiuyang turned around and glared: "How dare you follow in?"
Feng Ming stopped laughing, but he couldn't stop the smile on his face: "Is this Zhiyang Hot Spring opened by your family? Even if it is opened by your family, you shouldn't chase the guests away. Come, come, let's pay the entrance fee."
A staff member looked at Zhuo Xiuyang helplessly and ran to serve Feng Ming and the other three.
The entrance fee to Zhiyang Hot Spring is very high, and it is calculated by the length of time. It is as high as one million Yuanjing for one hour. Those who soak for less than one hour are also charged the same price. Therefore, only cultivators who are not short of Yuanjing can enter this hot spring.
It just so happens that Feng Ming and his friends are not short of Yuanjing, so they paid one million Yuanjing each very readily.
Zhuo Xiuyang and Zhao Rongkun both looked at them strangely. They didn't recognize any of these cultivators who were so generous.
Zhuo Xiuyang tried to hold back, but he couldn't help but come over to talk to Feng Ming: "Where are you from? Is this really your first time here?"
Feng Ming raised his eyebrows and looked at him: "You were so angry that you wanted to beat someone up just now, and now you are talking to me?"
Zhuo Xiuyang gritted his teeth and wanted to run away angrily.
Feng Ming was just teasing him and thought that this Master Zhuo was really interesting: "Okay, let me tell you, this is the first time for the four of us to come to Quanchuan City. We heard the waiter's introduction in the tavern before and knew about this famous Zhiyang Hot Spring, so we came here specially to take a bath and see how effective it is."
Zhuo Xiuyang didn't expect Feng Ming to actually explain it to him. He still looked at the four of them strangely: "You came in to take a bath just because you heard about it? Aren't you afraid that the Yuan Crystals will be thrown into the water in vain?"
Feng Ming said: "You underestimate us, don't you know that we can definitely earn back these one million Yuan Crystals? We are all masters of body refining."
Zhuo Xiuyang sneered, making it clear that he didn't believe them. These four people, especially Feng Ming and Qiu Yi, didn't look like strong people at first glance, so how could they possibly go for body refining.
Feng Ming saw that the guy didn't believe him, and he didn't want to waste time talking to him, so he dragged Bai Qiaomo and left: "Let's go to the hot springs and see how terrible this hot spring is."
The staff wore special uniforms and led them into a large pool. The room here was also built with special stones to isolate the heat of the hot spring to the greatest extent.
As soon as you enter here, the heat hits your face, as if it can burn you.
Looking at the so-called hot spring through the mist, Feng Ming exclaimed in surprise: "It's really a magma pool."
Bubbles were rolling in the magma. When the bubbles burst, more hot air gushed out, making the temperature here rise again.
Zhuo Xiuyang followed in from behind and said: "You don't know much, this is not ordinary magma, but mixed with energy that can promote body refining."
He looked at Feng Ming with a look of seeing a joke: "Hurry up and jump in, you didn't say that you were a body refining expert just now."
Zhao Rongkun also followed in, still without saying a word, watching quietly, his eyes flashing.
Feng Ming's aura is clearly that of a Yuan Dan realm cultivator. I wonder which major force has cultivated such a young Yuan Dan realm cultivator. I'm afraid his words may not be false.
