LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 28 Listing and Carving Knife
When taking the Star Luo Empire's merchant ship to Yueshu Island, Xu Zihuang had a general understanding of Yueshu Island through the map.
There are a total of seven cities on Yueshu Island, but apart from the main city of Yueshu City, the remaining six cities are much smaller. The permanent population is only about 100,000.
The sky in the distance is cloudless, and the sun is pouring down. The Yueshu City built on the coast stands in it, like a fairyland on earth. The towering huge city wall comes into view without any cover, giving people a majestic feeling.
The port in the north of Yueshu Island leads directly to the city gate of Yueshu City. The roads are busy with traffic on both sides and full of vitality.
Xu Zihuang stretched out his right hand to slightly block the scorching sunshine. He had lived in Mingdu in the north of the Sun and Moon Empire since he was a child, so he was somewhat unaccustomed to the climate of this southern country.
But that's not to say what impact it had on him.
With his current physical condition, he was completely immune to the cold and heat. He soon adapted to the dazzling sunshine with few clouds to block it, and walked steadily towards the gate of Yueshu City.
From the noise of the people around him, he even heard the accents of the Star Luo Empire and even the Heavenly Soul Empire and Dou Ling Empire.
And the number is not small.
Stopping at a shop selling Yueshu Island's local specialty fruits, Xu Zihuang ordered an iced juice and inadvertently asked the middle-aged shop owner who was busy: "Old man, isn't Yueshu Island the territory of the Sun and Moon Empire? ? Why do I hear so many accents from the three major empires of Douluo Continent?"
The middle-aged shop owner knew that Xu Zihuang's identity was extraordinary when he looked at Xu Zihuang, who exuded nobility in his gestures, and the five Meng Langs standing respectfully behind him. He responded with a respectful expression: "Isn't this young master a native of Yueshu Island?"
"Wars often broke out between the Sun Moon Empire and the three original empires of Douluo Continent more than 4,000 years ago. Many people escaped at that time, including many of the three empires of Xingluo, Tianhun and Dou Ling. People. Although the Yuenan Islands are small in size, they have never been affected by war. More than four thousand years have passed, and they have intermarryed with each other, which has evolved into the current situation."
As he spoke, the movements of his hands were not slow. Cut open the hard outer skin of a gray-brown fruit, insert a green bamboo pole about the length of a finger, hold it in both hands and hand it to Xu Zihuang, grinning.
"Chenghui, five copper soul coins."
Without Xu Zihuang's instructions, Meng Lang behind him had already taken out a shining silver soul coin from the soul guide and placed it on the table. Then he continued to follow Xu Zihuang.
Xu Zihuang sucked the fragrant and cold juice with undiminished interest.
This Yueshu Island is his starting point, and he doesn't mind wasting some time to learn more about the situation here.
The port in the north was only a few kilometers away from Yueshu City. Soon Xu Zihuang led everyone and entered after paying the entrance fee of one Silver Soul Coin.
The main road is wide and clean enough to accommodate more than ten carriages passing side by side, and tall buildings rise from the ground. The overall color is white gold, which is very different from the native cities of the Sun and Moon Empire.
As the middle-aged shopkeeper said before, after more than four thousand years of intermarriage, the people living in Yueshu City are no longer simply the people of the Sun and Moon Empire. Skin color is the most intuitive feature. People from the Sun and Moon Empire generally have darker skin tones, but there are definitely not a few people with fair skin like Xu Zihuang in Yueshu City.
And the clothes are very bold. From time to time, several girls with charming smiles pass by, exposing large areas of fair skin, and one can clearly feel the waves of fragrant breeze passing by.
Although Xu Zihuang's current clothing is very low-key, just a close-fitting black outfit. But the exquisite and flawless facial features and the noble deep purple eyes are still very eye-catching. In addition to the five Meng Lang who followed behind them with a calm momentum. Before they had even taken a few steps, there was quite a commotion.
Most people smiled kindly.
No matter who Xu Zihuang is, it's best if you can make friends with him. If you can't make friends with him, you can't offend him easily and make him unhappy. Anyway, they just smiled, nothing was lost.
Xu Zihuang looked helpless and had no interest in continuing to wander. He still underestimated his appearance.
And just as he passed a shop on the roadside, his pupils suddenly shrank. He stopped and looked through the transparent glass window beside him. He saw a tray wrapped in red cloth. As a spiritual soul master, he keenly felt an indescribable sharpness.
Sensing something strange about Xu Zihuang, Meng Lang quickly asked, "What's the matter, young master?"
"Come into this store and have a look." After saying this, Xu Zihuang directly opened the door and entered.
Sitting in front of the counter of this store is a slightly fat middle-aged man with narrowed eyes and extremely thick eyebrows. He has a very distinctive appearance.
The moment Xu Zihuang came in, his eyes suddenly lit up and he rubbed his hands gently.
"This young master wants to buy something. Our store has various rare metals and many high-quality soul tools..."
Xu Zihuang looked at him with a smile and said nothing. The fat middle-aged boss's face became a little unnatural as he continued to talk.
"This young master..."
"Take a look at the contents of that tray." Xu Zihuang made no secret of his intentions.
The fat boss followed Xu Zihuang's gaze, his brows couldn't help but twitch, he pondered for a moment, and then put on a flattering smile on his face.
"This young master has really good taste. He valued our store's treasure at a glance."
Holding the tray in both hands, he came back to Xu Zihuang. The fat boss lifted the red cloth covering it.
There is no dazzling brilliance or peerless brilliance. What appeared was an ordinary-looking item that couldn't be more ordinary. The items on the tray are very small, about half a foot long and only as thick as a finger. From bottom to top, there is a change from wide to narrow, and the top is the tip that looks very sharp. And underneath, there is a sharp blade about half an inch wide. The whole is simple and dark, with faint patterns engraved on it, exuding a light ancient atmosphere. But it's also a bit depressing.
Neither Xu Zihuang nor Meng Lang and the others behind him were unfamiliar with this item.
burin. This is what a soul master uses to engrave the core array. Both ends of the carving knife have a purpose, and their uses are different when different magic formations are engraved. Any soul engineer is indispensable with a carving knife, which is a necessity for making soul guidance tools.
