But Ning Cheng knew that it was almost enough, even if he refuted this person surnamed Sen to the point that he was covered in cuts and bruises, in the end he would not be able to do anything to him, let alone really punish this person surnamed Sen. This was because he didn't know anyone who could support him. With his current strength, it was best for him to quit while he was ahead.
"Of course, Lord Sen has just arrived here and doesn't understand the situation. It's normal for some unruly commoners to complain about you. I believe that by now, Lord Sen should have already seen through everything. "Ning Cheng chuckled, as he spoke in a slow tone.
The man surnamed Sen, whose forehead was dripping with cold sweat, suddenly came to his senses. That's right, he was an official of the Legal Tribunal Office. How could he be afraid of the threat of a mere commoner? So what if he was telling the truth? He couldn't possibly report it to his boss, could he?
Understanding this, the man surnamed Sen immediately regained his composure. His tone and demeanor returned to how they were when he first arrived. "I will investigate this matter in detail. You guys stay at home and wait for the results of the investigation …"
Although he knew that Ning Cheng could not do anything to him, this man surnamed Sen also did not dare to continue to do anything to Ning Cheng. He had never seen a civilian who was so proficient in the laws of Ya Lun City. He was even sure that even he was not as proficient in the laws of the Ya Lun City as the commoner in front of him.
Ning Cheng on seeing this cupped his fists and spoke, "Such being the case, then Lord Sen, I will go back with my companions. I will keep an eye on the situation in the market square at all times. If there is any illegal activity, I will immediately report it to the Legal Tribunal Office. "
Before he left, Ning Cheng also spoke a sentence that was neither light nor heavy. What he meant was that if this man surnamed Sen didn't give him face, then don't blame him for not giving him face. There was no way that the official surnamed Sen could not understand the meaning of these words.
…
"Ning Cheng, how are you so proficient in the laws of the Ya Lun City?" As soon as the three of them left the makeshift market, Yin Kongchan asked in amazement.
As soon as Ning Cheng found a place to live, the first thing he did was to purchase the laws of the Ya Lun City. The laws of the Ya Lun City were not limited to just one or two books, but rather several thick books, each of which was densely packed with tiny characters. Even if they had Divine Sense, it would take them a while to memorize it. Now that they didn't even have their Divine Sense, it was impossible for them to remember anything.
Ning Cheng smiled and spoke, "I have a good memory, so I can remember a few things that are useful to me."
Yin Kongchan was obviously not very satisfied with Ning Cheng's explanation. She knew that Ning Cheng was definitely lying, but she did not continue to entangle herself with Ning Cheng's memories. Instead, she continued to ask, "Then how did you know that you wanted to buy the Law? Don't tell me you can guess what happened today? "
Ning Cheng spoke in a light voice, "In my hometown, it is also a place that relies on the law, once you encounter something, and have no money to hire a lawyer, you can only remember some of the laws by yourself. I'm experienced, so I came here to look at the laws first, just in case. "
As soon as she spoke about his hometown, Ning Cheng's mood immediately became depressed, as such Yin Kongchan tactfully did not continue to ask about it.
The three of them turned silent, until they reached the entrance of a Pill and Artefact Shop, Ning Cheng stopped, and simultaneously spoke, "Wait, I'll go in and have a look."
"But we don't have any gold coins on us. I heard that the cheapest things here are priced in gold coins." Yin Kongchan looked at the Pill and Artefact Store and spoke, she often passed through the entrance of this Pill and Artefact Store, so of course she knew that the prices of the things inside were very high.
"Let's go in and have a look, you don't have to buy anything." Ning Cheng spoke, as he walked into the store.
In front of him were a variety of dazzling pills, weapons, medicinal herbs … … It made Ning Cheng think that he had once again arrived at a True Cultivator City's Merchant House.
"What would the several guests like to buy?" Although Ning Cheng and the other two people did not look like rich people, but the shop assistant still greeted them with a smile on his face.
"I would like to ask how do you collect the Aquatic Essence Tendons here, is it a complete Aquatic Essence Tendon … …" Ning Cheng asked.
The shop assistant immediately became excited, "Do you have a complete Aquatic Essence Tendon? If you are willing to bring it to me, then I can give you 18 gold coins for it, no, 20 gold coins … … "
Ning Cheng quickly spoke up, "I do not have it yet, I just want to inquire about the price. By the way, I would also like to ask, if an outsider comes here, how much would it cost to apply for a civilian identity? If you want to buy a small courtyard in a remote place, how much money would it cost? "
Hearing that Ning Cheng had only come to inquire about the price, the shop assistant's excitement immediately subsided. Nevertheless, he still replied in a very polite manner, "To apply for a civilian identity, you just need to go to the Ya Lun City's Population Registration Office. It would cost you 10 silver coins. If you want to buy a small courtyard, then it would cost you about 50 gold coins in a remote place, if you want to go to a more prosperous place, then it would be hard to say. "
Ning Cheng on listening to the shop assistant's words fully understood in his heart how much Ma Ang had cheated him. He had obtained a total of 10 bundles of Aquatic Essence Tendons, each bundle contained nearly 100 of them. According to the shop assistant's words, his 10 bundles of Aquatic Essence Tendons could be sold for at least 20,000 gold coins, while Ma Ang had only spent about 50 gold coins on him. Moreover, this 20,000 gold coins was the price offered by the shop assistant, if an ordinary boss came out, then the price would definitely be much higher. Ma Ang, this fellow was just too black hearted.
"Many thanks, if I can get my hands on Aquatic Essence Tendons, then I will definitely come to your shop to sell them." Ning Cheng thanked the shop assistant, as he turned around and left with Yin Kongchan and Xu Yingdei.
"This Ma Ang is just too black hearted." As soon as they came out of the shop, Yin Kongchan spoke up. Even if they were given a tenth of the price, they would not have to set up a stall.
Ning Cheng showed a slight smile and spoke, "Expecting a businessman to have a conscience, then don't even dream about it."
Although Ning Cheng was very ashamed of this Ma Ang in his heart, but he did not want to do anything to him. Initially, he had said that the two of them would split it equally, but Ning Cheng had a clear distinction between gratitude and grudges, the three of them were saved by Ma Ang. If not for Ma Ang, then they would not have been able to find the Ya Lun City.
"Do you still want to go to the White Robed Ghost Lake to get the Aquatic Essence Tendons?" Since coming out of the makeshift market, Xu Yingdei, who had not spoken until now, asked with some worry.
Ning Cheng shook his head and spoke, "If it was not a last resort, I would not spend a month to go there. That's right, the last time you said that there was a ghost in the lake, what was going on? "
If not for Xu Yingdei mentioning this name again today, Ning Cheng would not have taken this matter to heart.
"That night, after you went to rest, Yin Kongchan and I made an appointment to keep watch until midnight. But I unexpectedly saw a man dressed in white, carrying a long spear on his back, walking around the lake. I called out Yin Kongchan, and Yin Kongchan unexpectedly also saw the white robed man carrying a long spear. We knew that it was definitely not a real living person, but it did not look like a soul … … "Xu Yingdei still had a lingering fear in her heart.
Even if they were once Soul Essence Cultivators, when they did not have any cultivation, they were not much stronger than an ordinary person.
Yin Kongchan immediately nodded in agreement, it was obvious that what Xu Yingdei said was the truth.
Ning Cheng suddenly asked, "You saw the long spear on the back of the white robed man, was it the one that I had brought back?"
"No, the long spear on the back of the white robed man was purple in colour, because he was wearing white robes, the purple spear was particularly eye-catching. Moreover, that purple spear was much longer than the long spear you are carrying, it is definitely a top grade magical weapon, it is not something that would rust. "Yin Kongchan immediately refuted it. She was a Soul Essence Cultivator, as such she could still see through it.
The long spear that Ning Cheng was carrying was also made from was not ordinary material, but it was not as good as the long spear on the back of the white robed man.
So it was like this? After Ning Cheng pondered for a long time, he suddenly wanted to go back to the White Robed Ghost Lake to have a look.
"Ning Cheng, I also saw a lot of good things for sale here, there are even Rank 9 Spiritual Grasses. But the preservation is very poor, moreover the price is also ridiculously high. "Yin Kongchan on seeing Ning Cheng pondering, took the initiative to speak up.
"Is there a Heavenly Cusp Flower?" Ning Cheng almost blurted out, he now had the Geocentric 9 Yin Essence, the only thing missing was the Heavenly Cusp Flower.
"What is a Heavenly Cusp Flower?" Yin Kongchan asked in a puzzled voice, although she was not an Alchemy Master, but she was still very familiar with most of the Spiritual Grasses. As for the Heavenly Cusp Flower, she had never heard of it before.
Ning Cheng quickly squatted down, and drew the shape of the Heavenly Cusp Flower on the ground, while patiently explaining the characteristics of the Heavenly Cusp Flower, its taste, and various other details.
Yin Kongchan shook her head and spoke, "I have not seen this kind of flower, it is also the first time that I have heard of it."
Xu Yingdei suddenly spoke up from the side, "I have seen this kind of flower ….."
Ning Cheng did not wait for Xu Yingdei to finish speaking, as he reached out and grabbed Xu Yingdei's shoulder, and excitedly asked, "Quickly tell me, where is this kind of flower."
Xu Yingdei could feel the heat and excitement coming from Ning Cheng's hand, causing her heart to tremble, as she spoke in a low voice, "In our Severing Emotions Dao Sect's Spiritual Medicine Garden, there is a stalk of this kind of flower, which is heavily protected, it looks like it is very precious … …"
Severing Emotions Dao Sect, I will definitely go there. Ning Cheng put down his hand, as he secretly clenched his fists.
Ning Cheng did not pay attention to Xu Yingdei's demeanor, but Yin Kongchan had been watching from the side. Xu Yingdei's tone was soft, while her eyes were hazy and watery, as if she could not wait for Ning Cheng to immediately rub her into his arms.
"Ning Cheng, I inquired about how to get out of here … …" Yin Kongchan was very uncomfortable with Xu Yingdei's coquettish appearance, as such she took the initiative to change the topic.
"Can we get out of here?" Ning Cheng asked in a pleasantly surprised voice.
This time, not waiting for Yin Kongchan to answer, a burst of hoofbeats interrupted the three people's words, as a team of guards quickly arrived in front of the Ning Cheng trio.
"Last time outside the city, was it you who dared to look up at this little sister?" A cold and indifferent voice came from the tall one horned beast.
Xu Yingdei and Yin Kongchan quickly lowered their heads, while Ning Cheng once again looked up and stared at the man riding on the one horned beast. He looked somewhat similar to the Princess Man from the last time, with a bloody aura covering his entire body, and an incomparably sharp expression in his eyes.
"You are right, it was me." Ning Cheng calmly replied.
"Good courage, even daring to look at a prince, you are simply courting death … …" One of the guards grabbed a long whip, and was about to attack Ning Cheng.
The man riding on the one horned beast waved his hand and spoke, "Yes, your courage is indeed not small. The two beside you are your women, I will also allow them to raise their heads. "
