Lu Jiu and her group followed the previously planned route. In Jinghe District, they found that there were more lakes here, unlike their side, which had more fields.

Maybe this was the characteristics of each region.

They saw most lakes along the way and occasionally saw professional players coming out to clear the field. Generally, these people were attracted by the bicycles Lu Jiu and the others rode.

Lu Jiu was thinking that anyway, a team from a city-state knew of this bicycle, so they don’t hide it, and ride it openly.

Sometimes they would stop to chat with those people. So far, they haven’t met anyone who said they would kill them and rob their bicycles. It seems that the people in Jinghe District were quite peaceful.

The place they came to at this time was called Gao Qiulin.

Gaoqiulin was next to a city-state called Rain Dragon City. Originally, they were just passing by here, but after a few days of traveling, they wanted to have some free time, and they wanted to go to the city-state for a stroll.

But they can’t pay the accommodation fee here to stay overnight, they can only look at it.

Lu Jiu and Shen Jufeng were fine. They were already permanent residents of Xuantian City. They can go to other city-states to live in guesthouses. They just need to show their permanent resident status to the station in other city-states.

But Zhuang Yun can’t, he was just a temporary resident, so if he paid the renting fee somewhere else, the renting fee paid in Xuantian City before will be voided.

Looking at this Rain Dragon City belongs to the second-tier city-state.

After entering from the majestic gate of the city, they saw the bustling street with stalls. There were all kinds of noises on both sides of the street, and behind the stalls was row upon row of buildings.

There were only three shops here, namely a pharmacy, a blacksmith shop, and a tailor shop.

It just so happens that it will be noon. Due to the long-term eating habits of three meals, they wanted to eat. The shops selling food here will be very lively.

Lu Jiu and Shen Jufeng split up to find their favorite food. She ran to a shop selling cold cakes, which had several flavors.

“Give me a red bean cold cake.” Lu Jiu handed the middle-aged proprietress five copper coins, and there was a sign with the price written on the front of the stall.

The price of red bean cold cake is 2 copper coins, and the extra 3 copper coins are mortgage fees to prevent customers from not returning the bowls and spoons to the stall. 3 copper coins may not be much for many residents, but exchanging 3 copper coins for a palm-sized bowl and a small spoon was not worth it at all.

“Okay, take it, girl, and come back if you find it delicious.” The proprietress handed her the cold cake quickly.

Lu Jiu moved two steps to the side with the red bean cold cake, so as not to block other people from buying food.

The small bowl feels cold in the palm of your hand. Gently dig a spoonful of cold cake, the mouth was soft and sweet, with a hint of coolness spreading in the mouth. The proprietress has fantastic craftsmanship.

The cold cake in the bowl was quickly disposed of. Lu Jiu chose to continue and picked a crystal cold cake. Liu Jiu stopped eating after tasting three flavors, then she returned the bowl to the proprietress, and at the same time, the proprietress returned the three copper coins.

“Miss Boss, your cold cake tastes good, I’ll come again next time.” She was telling the truth. Before leaving, she would buy all the flavors and eat them slowly later.

“It’s good you like it.” The proprietress smiled contentedly.

Lu Jiu still had a sweet taste in her mouth as she continued to stroll, and within a few steps, she saw Shen Jufeng walking over with long legs, but she didn’t see Zhuang Yun.

“You’re pretty fast, too.” Lu Jiu teased him, but the other party’s expression remained unchanged, and he cast a glance at her.

“Let’s go and have a look at those three shops.”

Lu Jiu nodded, of course, they have to go and see what the city-state shop sells. She mailed Zhuang Yun, saying that they would go to the blacksmith shop first.

Many people stared at Shen Jufeng on the road, most of them were girls, while the boys looked defensive, after all, he didn’t look like an ordinary person at all.

They soon came to the blacksmith shop named Red Dragon. Lu Jiu raised an eyebrow. Red Dragon? How much does the city lord love dragons?

Maybe many people were eating lunch, so the shop was a bit deserted, a few shop assistants standing in the shop were like robots, very old-fashioned, and they don’t feel the same as the NPCs in the shop in Xuantian City.

Maybe this was a low-level NPC.

The store has only one floor. They checked the items here. Most of them were ordinary-level equipment and a few were brown-iron-level equipment. The price was also higher than theirs, almost twice as high.

Lu Jiu didn’t look at the equipment carefully, but was very interested in a few NPCs: “They are really like robots, and they are not at the same level as our NPCs.”

Shen Jufeng didn’t care, originally the NPCs in Xuantian City were all high-level. If there was no difference between low-level and high-level, then why spend that gold coin: “If there is no difference, then your gold coins were spent in vain.”

Lu Jiu thinks about it too. Fortunately, she chose the advanced one, otherwise, she would spend so much time thinking, and it would be tiring if everyone relies on her as the city lord and just wait for her to command.

There were a few items here, and they finished quickly. When the two were about to go out, other people came in. When the two groups met, the people on the opposite side were stunned for a while.

“We have a new face.” The man in black took the lead and said, and the people behind followed.

Shen Jufeng stood in front of him without a trace, slightly blocking Lu Jiu, “We happened to pass by Rain Dragon City, so we came in to see the world.”

The man in black listened and nodded, “It seems that you are also professional players, from a nearby city-state?”

Shen Jufeng nodded and didn’t say much.

The man in black looked at Lu Jiu several times, then nodded and entered the shop.

The two of them also left the blacksmith shop, Lu Jiu muttered, “That’s the team of this city-state.”

“Who knows, but judging by the man’s posture, he should be quite powerful in this city-state. You must know that not every city-state’s city lord hides information.”

Lu Jiu remembered that the team of Phantom City before, and Team Leader Xiang’s group they met later, were all the people of the city lord. Maybe those few people were the same.

Shen Jufeng looked around and his eyes fell on the pharmacy shop: “Let’s go, let’s go to the pharmacy, I don’t think there is any need to go to the tailor shop.” The grade of the blacksmith shop was like that, so the tailor shop was even less likely comparable to Xuantian City.

In the pharmacy shop, there were also a few robot-like NPCs standing quietly. Lu Jiu saw that the store manager was like a Barbie doll, and thought of the beautiful and lively store manager in her city-state pharmacy.

The potions here were not good as expected, which disappointed Lu Jiu. The HP added were not much, but the price was not low, and five times higher than of their side.

After the two of them visited the pharmacy, Zhuang Yun also found them.

The three of them prepared to leave the city. They were strangers in the eyes of the residents here. They don’t know anyone here, so it was not good to stay for a long time.

As soon as they walked to the gate of the city-state, they saw the professional players they met in the blacksmith shop before.

The man in black in front saw Lu Jiu and the others at a glance.

Lu Jiu naturally found them too. Now these people seem to gather all their members, maybe they were going out of the city to clear the field.

Besides the man in black stood a young woman with a ponytail. The two looked alike, so they should be blood relatives.

“Brother, do you know those three people?” The young woman asked, her eyes fixed on Shen Jufeng.

The man in black replied, “They are from the outer city, I met them in the blacksmith shop before, and they said they just passed by to have a look.”
