Arrive in the ethereal city
After resting for several hours, Zhang Xia and Bai Ze woke up one after another.
After lunch, three people and one beast continued to travel west, but there was still no specific goal, so I could go wherever I went.
I was tired of leaving, three people and one beast sat down to rest, ate some dry food, drank some water, and continued to move forward, hoping to find a comfortable place to stay before dark.
The road was very rugged, and it was very uncomfortable for three people and one beast to walk. They agreed to hire a carriage to carry it when they arrived at the next place.
Finally, they saw a huge city. When they walked closer, the three big words "Piaomiao City" were written on the city gate. Three people and one beast couldn't wait to go into the city for dinner and had a rest.
After entering the city, the three of them were stunned by everything in front of them. There were too many people, people coming and going, bustling, and the buildings were luxurious, not much worse than those in Kyoto. They walked into an inn called "Fenghualou". The inn was full of guests. They finally found a table in the corner to sit down and ordered a few special dishes. They waited patiently, chatted, talked, and said everything.
After almost a quarter of an hour, the dishes were served one by one. Roasted mutton, roasted bear's paw, roasted flower duck, Sixi meatballs, assorted seasonal vegetables, seaweed egg flower soup, and cold pork ears. The three of them were a little hungry and had a very happy meal.
The three of them had a very pleasant dinner. Although the environment was very noisy, it did not affect their meal at all. After the meal, the three of them booked a room and went out for a walk.
When the lights were on, people had dinner and went out to go shopping and play. The three of them walked to the door of a mansion. Someone came out and stopped in front of Zhang Xia. He bowed and said respectfully: "Is Mr. Zhang?"
Zhang Xia said, "That's right, I don't know what advice?"
The visitor said, "I am Yu Yue, the butler of the city lord. Our city lord has long heard of the name of Young Master Zhang. Today, I heard that you have passed by Piaomiao City. The city lord specially ordered me to invite Young Master Zhang to the mansion to let us complete the friendship of the landlord!"
Zhang Xia heard that the housekeeper was so enthusiastic, and pulled Yizhimei and Wu Yuhua into the mansion, and Bai Ze naturally followed him in.
As the saying goes, when you enter the marquis's family, it is as deep as the sea. Of course, it means that the wealthy family is ruthless, but in terms of the structure of the mansion, Piaomiao City is just a city lord's mansion, which is as big as the royal mansion, which is really not simple.
Five in and five lanes, nine curves and eighteen curves. The Piaomiao City Lord’s mansion is not only big, but also implicit mystery. In terms of Fengshui, this house belongs to a long house with north and south, narrow east and west, long and square shape. It has a good layout. If you live in it, you will definitely have wealthy descendants. There is a poem as evidence: "When you look up, you will find rich people, and it will be difficult for common people to get this. The descendants have seals and official positions, and the family will have nine ministers."
At this time, the city lord walked out. When he saw Zhang Xia and his group, he said with a smile: "Young Master Zhang, welcome!"
After saying that, he came to shake hands with Zhang Xia. Zhang Xia greeted him a few words, and felt very bored. Such a nobleman is the one that Zhang Xia is most reluctant to make friends with. If he had not seen the butler's enthusiasm and a little bit of affection, he would not have come in here. It seems that the city lord wanted to keep them in accommodation. Zhang Xia told the butler that they had booked a room in Fenghua Tower and asked someone to cancel it.
The city lord asked his servants to serve the fine wine peach blossom wine in the mansion. After drinking it, Zhang Xia and the others felt that the mouth was soft and a little sweet, which was very delicious.
