Rules
The next day.
Fang Zelin got up very early, said goodbye to the early risers in the village, and left.
Shortly after Fang Zelin left, Tianxi said she had found her relatives and also took her leave.
A moment later, Tianxi quickly caught up with Fang Zelin.
"Young master, where are we going?"
Tianxi, who was following Fang Zelin, was extremely excited, like a mischievous child leaving home for the first time.
"Traveling far and wide, going wherever there's a place to go."
Fang Zelin replied, taking a sip from the gourd.
He guessed that his fellow Daoists had already arrived at Yingping Peak and taken away all the Daoist writings he had done over the years.
With those Daoist texts in hand, if they take them back, they should be able to help fellow Daoists gain some understanding.
"Oh, I've heard of immortals traveling the world, but I've never seen one. Are you also an immortal, young master?"
Tianxi had no idea what was going on with this benefactor in front of her.
All he knew was that two hundred years ago, his benefactor had already been cultivating.
By now, this benefactor's abilities must be even more unfathomable.
"But he can't be considered an immortal yet."
Fang Zelin shook his head, walking along the Great Dao towards Youjing City while observing his surroundings.
Over the course of more than a hundred years, the changes Great Qian Dynasty have indeed been enormous.
There were many pedestrians on the road, probably because the road signs had been removed.
In the past, to prevent refugees from wandering around and to consolidate the regime, ordinary people needed travel permits to go to other places.
"With such cultivation as you, young master, how can you not be considered an immortal?"
Upon hearing this, Tianxi asked with some confusion.
"Of course not."
Fang Zelin didn't explain anything further and walked ahead alone.
Tianxi followed behind, looking delicate and frail.
If an ordinary person saw this, they would probably feel sorry for the person, wondering if they could even walk.
But Fang Zelin didn't have any other thoughts. The other party was a fairy; she wouldn't be unable to walk such a short distance.
The human and the demon walked for a day, and before dusk, they saw a city in the distance.
The city before me remained as magnificent as ever.
As the sun sets in the distance, its rays illuminate the city wall in front of us, bathing the entire wall in a golden hue.
From a distance, it looks like a piece of gold shimmering.
The entire city wall exudes a strong and majestic aura.
Fang Zelin glanced at the name on the city wall: Qinlan.
This is Qinlan City, which I visited back then, and the city walls still haven't changed much.
Upon closer inspection, it only shows signs of age and wear.
She was still the same Qinlan City.
Looking at Qinlan City now, I felt a mix of emotions.
"Let's go into town and rest for the night."
Fang Zelin paused for a moment, then spoke to Tianxi.
Upon hearing this, Tianxi responded and then rummaged through her clothes, taking out a few taels of silver.
Seeing the other person's appearance, Fang Zelin subconsciously touched himself as well.
On the contrary, Fang Zelin did not find any silver on him.
Seeing this, Fang Zelin felt a little embarrassed.
He had forgotten that he didn't have any money on him.
"Young master, please use my servant's silver; Wu Yong to have this silver on you anyway."
Seeing Fang Zelin's expression, Tianxi smiled, her eyes full of joy.
Seeing Tianxi say this, Fang Zelin thought for a moment and nodded without ceremony.
The two entered Qinlan City, around mealtime, when the streets were lined with countless diners.
Fang Zelin followed the path he had taken before, looking around at the streets that were both familiar and unfamiliar.
You can still vaguely make out what it used to look like.
This scene evoked even more emotions in Fang Zelin.
A moment later, Fang Zelin and Tianxi went up to the riverside inn.
What would you two like to eat?
Upon seeing a customer approach, the waiter quickly stepped forward and inquired.
As he spoke, he led the way to the table and began wiping it down.
"Bring on all your best dishes!"
Tianxi sniffed and then said softly.
The aroma was quite appealing, and she decided to have one of everything.
If it tastes good, then write it down so you can learn it well in the future.
"Alright, please wait a moment!"
The waiter said, giving Fang Zelin a rather strange look.
He had just heard the woman call out "Young Master Fang Zelin".
It should be noted that since the founding of the Great Qian Dynasty, it has become quite rare for households to have servants.
Only in some large, established Aristocratic Clan, or in older Lineage, do such rules still exist.
However, these Aristocratic Clan Lineage usually keep a very low profile.
It was rare for him to come out with his maidservants like this.
Therefore, it is already quite rare to see someone come out with a maid.
This was also what made him feel somewhat strange when he heard such a pretty woman calling him "Young Master Fang Zelin".
However, to be fair, the young master before me has an extraordinary bearing; he must be the kind of scion that only aristocratic Aristocratic Clan could cultivate.
"Young master, do you eat these things while cultivating? Cultivators eat these things too. If they don't eat them, won't they starve to death?"
Tianxi was quite curious about matters related to cultivation.
She was merely a Demon Cultivator and had no idea how cultivators in the cultivation world operated.
There were quite a few problems along the way.
Even now, having a meal still presents numerous problems.
Faced with so many questions, Fang Zelin could only try to give brief answers.
The kitchen staff worked quickly, and in no time they brought out their signature dishes and placed them in front of me.
Tianxi stood to the side, behaving herself properly, as if she were serving Fang Zelin.
Fang Zelin felt extremely uncomfortable and asked the other person to sit down.
"The Great Qian Dynasty has been established for two hundred years, and you have learned a great deal. Where else can you find something like this? Sit down and join us."
Fang Zelin waved for the other person to sit down.
Upon hearing this, Tianxi tilted her head slightly. "But I've seen maids in some large Lineage still dressed like this before?"
She wasn't unfamiliar with what it was like inside some large Lineage.
There were still servants and maids.
It's just that very few outsiders have seen it.
This remark left Fang Zelin somewhat helpless. "If you want to follow me, then abide by my rules."
I hadn't felt anything before, probably because I'd been cultivating in the mountains for so long.
But after spending a day with Tianxi, Fang Zelin realized something.
Those old ideas are somewhat outdated.
Although he doesn't care too much about other people's opinions, since he's here to experience the world, he might as well do as the locals do.
Upon hearing Fang Zelin recount the rules, Tianxi's expression immediately turned serious, and she hurriedly nodded.
In her view, the rules were set by her benefactor, so they were naturally very important.
