Wandao long distance

Li Qi couldn't understand it.

A world that encourages competition, encourages fighting, and puts combat power at the most important level, will stand still and even cut off contact with the outside world, directly cleaning up all things within 60 billion light years, creating a huge extraterritorial void, Prevent someone from finding Xiantian.

Shouldn't he rush out and sweep the world?This is a first-class world.

Contradictory, so contradictory.

Insufficient information, only contact with such a small place in the mortal world, can't really touch the whole picture of Xiantian, it is better to go to the city, maybe more clues can be obtained in the city.

Get the clues in the city, then go to the real world, and finally contact the fairy sky, which is the highest level.

Li Qi has already made arrangements.

So, he said to Chrysanthemum Ye: "The scenery outside the city is similar, nothing special, let's go into the city and have a look."

"This..." Ju Ye hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, please come with me, sir."

Li Qi knew why he was hesitant, because the cost for two people to enter the city would be enough to bankrupt him.

But Li Qi didn't say anything, anyway, let's talk about it after entering the city.

In the end, Ju Ye accepted her fate honestly, paid the money, and received a sign representing the qualification to enter the city. One piece per person, she brought Li Qi to Bailu City.

"My lord...I have never been to this city before, so I am afraid I can't be your guide." Before Ju Ye came in, she said so.

"It's okay, it's good to have a look together, just introduce some local products to me, I should know them all, right?" Li Qi said.

"It's true that I know a lot, but I'm afraid I can't afford it." Ju Ye smiled wryly, making preparations for Li Qi in advance.

"Just take a look, there's no need to buy it." Li Qi smiled and walked forward with Chrysanthemum Leaf.

Entering Bailu City, one can obviously feel a huge difference.

The city was clean and tidy, full of high-class atmosphere, and a large number of well-dressed people rode majestic spirit beast mounts.Every intersection has clear signs and elegant decorations. Even the air has a faint scent of perfume. Armed guards patrol the streets to keep the place safe at all times.

Here, the number of magic weapons has been greatly increased. Of course, it is not as good as a humane city, but it also has a special flavor.

But... Li Qi noticed that under this beautiful appearance, there were a large number of homeless people hidden. There were many, many people hiding on street corners, and even in deeper alleys.

Well, they must have caused trouble outside and used all their savings to hide from their enemies.

But the prices here are extremely high, and they don't have enough money to live, so they can only wander here and dare not go out.

This kind of situation obviously gave birth to a large number of 'slaves', and Li Qi could see that almost every one of those big men who were really capable of living here was surrounded by a large number of servants.

After all, even if it is the ninth grade, there is no bigu in fact, and it needs to eat, otherwise it will starve to death.

Ninth-rank practitioners who are poor in combat effectiveness, have just broken through, or are hiding from enemies so that they can’t get more money, and those practitioners who are not in the rank, their only way to survive is to serve as dogs to powerful big shots.

In this way, you can also have a meal.

Li Qi nodded slightly, this was indeed in line with his impression, and it could also explain why the city did not expel these people.

It's about superiority.

The sense of superiority comes from comparison.

If all the people in the city are big people, it means that everyone is not big people, and the sense of body will be very poor.

Therefore, Bailu City Lord took advantage of this skillfully, blackmailed all the money of those who came in to take refuge, and let them come in again, becoming a source of superiority for the big shots, and even squeezed their labor force, forcing them to provide cheap food for the big shots. Humans, services, formed the city's upper and lower classes.

While watching these, Li Qi continued to visit the Bailu City, which covers an area of ​​two thousand miles.

This tour lasted for three full days. For three days, Li Qi walked around the city without sleep.

He came to the upper floors of the city, where the great men frequented.

Here is the real cleanliness and tidiness, and people who come and go, even slaves, look decent.

Here is the Goulan Workshop, where the skilled artists, singing, dancing, and playing musical instruments are quite good, pleasing the nobles.

There are also luxurious restaurants with all kinds of delicacies, but Li Qi doesn't have enough time, so he just looked around and didn't go in to taste the taste.

There are also all kinds of magic weapons, clothing, and even some rare and rare products, which are also very good.

Generally speaking, for the upper class, although life in Bailu City is a bit expensive, the quality is absolutely guaranteed, which is enough to be called value for money.

Because, Li Qi has already learned that in the mortal world of Xiantian, most of them are wilderness fields, and there are rarely such prosperous urban gathering places.

To maintain a city, the cost is extremely high, and a large number of masters are needed to maintain order, otherwise it is easy to be targeted by robbers who are eager to see.

This is a big fat piece of meat, so naturally many people will stare at it. It can only be said that the Lord of Bailu City is very strong.

After seeing the upper floor, Li Qi went to observe the lower floor.

The lower level is also the same as Li Qi's imagination.

It's a slum at all.

This place is no longer bright, broken, scattered, and chaos fills the crooked alleys of the entire slum.

In this place, a large number of desperadoes gathered, if they were not desperadoes, it would be soon.

The rules of Bailu City do not allow murders here, but the control of this place is not so strict, so anyone is willing to sacrifice their lives for the next meal.

The life here, how should I put it... is quite exciting, and it is absolutely impossible for the people who live in it to be bored, but the probability is very short, and few people can live here for a long time.

Either they were oppressed to death, or they couldn't bear to escape from the city, or they climbed to the top and became slaves or thugs of big shots outside.

There are many reasons for falling to this point. It may be that they were defeated by their enemies, or they were exhausted, or they were cheated out of all their money, but no matter what, they are all penniless at this moment.

There is almost no way to survive here, so people here will do anything as long as they can survive.

Stealing, robbing, cheating, anything is fine, even if it is working for others.

When Li Qi was traveling here, he was snatched by someone, but he was slapped away by Li Qi, the chrysanthemum leaf was shocked again, and Li Qi also gained a certain degree of prestige, so some young people dare not approach at will.

After all, in this kind of place, the news must be very well-informed.

In addition, Li Qi also discovered that there are some big shots patronizing the lower area, they will not come in person, but Li Qi has witnessed many running dogs of big shots, they came here in order to recruit a group of low-level thugs , or some suicide assassin who wants money but not life.

However, there is no order here. In fact, gangs and sects rule this area, and there are strong people among them, but these strong people usually don't live here.

These powerful men rule the lower tiers, but they themselves live in the gleaming upper tiers.

After visiting the upper and lower floors, Li Qi understood what kind of shit this so-called Bailu City was.

This is his grandma's...

Xianxia Cyberpunk?
There is a clear distinction between upper and lower, and the upper layer controls everything. On the surface, it looks powerful and elegant, with a good life, full of sunshine, and even a chance to obtain immortality.

The lower class exists purely as vassals of the upper class, they are not even 'oppressed', because the upper class does not need them at all, powerful practitioners can completely sweep them out, after all, their only role for the big shots is to run errands or Get a sense of superiority from them.

The upper and lower classes are unequal from the very beginning. This inequality is not caused by oppression and exploitation, but by the disparity in power between the two sides.

For practitioners, equality is only based on strength and productivity. The eighth rank is comprehensively superior to the ninth rank and the non-advanced rank. The gap is huge. The lower ranks can only become vassals, and they have to take the initiative to post it, otherwise If someone kicks you, you can only cry.

This is not the difference between the boss and the employees. When all the employees leave together, the boss can only cry, because the boss actually relies on the employees to maintain the company.

This is the difference between the small fish and the shrimp around the dragon. The dragon is still fine without the fish and shrimp, but the fish and shrimp will die without the dragon.

Therefore, even if the giant dragon often ate some, and occasionally killed a few groups without paying attention, they didn't dare to have any opinions, and they had to charge up in groups, wishing they could get closer.

This is an entirely different dependency.

Thinking of this, Li Qi suddenly noticed that the chrysanthemum leaf next to him seemed a little sluggish.

Um?What's going on?
However, Li Qi glanced at it and immediately understood.

He didn't sleep or eat for three days, and he was walking around with Li Qi all the time. He was almost exhausted.

Oh, just breaking through to the ninth rank, without bigu, or even the golden elixir of the Taoist ninth rank, naturally it won't last long.

But he still didn't raise any objections, obviously this is how the world is.

So, Li Qi patted him, injected a little vitality into him, cheered him up temporarily, and said: "Let's go, find a place to eat, just go to that restaurant."

Li Qi pointed to a magnificent restaurant in the upper area. The building is [-] feet high and covers an area of ​​four to five miles. Li Qi has observed it before. There are all kinds of strange beasts, beauties, and musicians here, and it is very luxurious.

Seeing the place Li Qi was pointing at, Ju Ye swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said nervously: "My lord... I, I have no money."

"Okay, my treat, let's go." Li Qi smiled and took the lead to walk over there.

But at this moment, Chrysanthemum Ye suddenly felt...

My body seems to be healing.

Although still very hungry, but more energy.

Is it the shot just now?
Chrysanthemum leaf touched her shoulder.

So full of anger.

He was overjoyed.

Perhaps this is the first step for the other party to trust him?Then I can really live if I don’t do it right!

He still thinks that he is very likely to be killed. After all...the strong in this world are really not easy to get along with.

But now that the other party is willing to say that, and is even willing to heal his wounds, does that mean that he can really be a dog to the other party?

Chrysanthemum Leaf didn't think it was embarrassing.

It is the greatest honor to be a dog for the mighty, unlike some wild dogs who run around without knowing who their master is, and can only grab food on the ground and fight each other.

A dog with an owner has no worries about food and clothing.

And...the other party also promised to save his senior sister, maybe the other party will really fulfill his promise?
right?

Ju Ye thought so, but when she looked up, Li Qi was almost gone.

He quickly chased after him, following Li Qi's pace.

As for Li Qi, he entered the restaurant.

"Take one of your signature dishes, if you can get one." Li Qi walked in, found a table and sat down, and said.

The waiter was slightly surprised, because few people would order like this.

As a waiter here, he is not stupid enough to ask "Can you afford it?" So I just bowed my head respectfully: "In that case, I'm afraid the table in the hall won't be able to fit, so I invite you to go to the top of the room."

"Alright, let's lead the way." Li Qi nodded without refusing.

The waiter led the way, and Li Qi and the others boarded a big blue bird. The big bird carried a pavilion on its back, and it was the elevator here.

The big bird soared slowly, following the updraft, and flew slowly and steadily to the top of the restaurant.

Chrysanthemum leaves trembling.

He had never been to this kind of place before, and he just discovered that this elevator bird... had the same cultivation level as him, if it was outside, it would definitely be a ferocious beast entrenched in one side.

But here, it can only be used as an elevator for people.

Li Qi didn't think there was anything wrong with it. To be honest, most of his energy was put into deducing the social structure of Xiantian, and he didn't care much about these trivial matters from the outside world.

This is the mentality of high-quality practitioners. Up to now, Li Qishi seldom pays attention to the outside world and things that have nothing to do with him. After all, he has seen many, many ordinary people... Most of them are similar.

What they care about and what they pursue, in Li Qi's eyes, all seem too insignificant, and it is really difficult to have a common language.

Humanity may care about the demands of mortals, as long as they meet the standards of humanity, but Li Qi is used to doing things alone, and witchcraft is not an orthodox system that will save common people everywhere.

Arriving at the top of the building, Li Qi sat down.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of meals were delivered.

Li Qi ordered many dishes.

Exotic animal meat, rare fish feasts, plants that have never been seen before, spiritual herbs, spices with special flavors, different fermentation methods, and various cooking techniques are all displayed, with a total of more than 400 dishes.

As a foodie, Li Qi actually likes to eat, but these are only ninth grades, so he just tasted them. To be honest, for the level of eighth and ninth grades, they are quite good, and many Li Qis have never tasted them. To Li Qi, the taste of the spirit beasts he had eaten was very exotic.

As for Ju Chi next to him, he ate it with great joy, Li Qi only tasted one bite of everything, and the rest was his.

but……

Li Qi suddenly noticed that someone was staring at him.
