longevity road trip

Hearing Chang Shen's words, Yu Ye couldn't help being a little silent, he thought for a while, and sighed:

"I didn't expect that the situation of Chi Huo and Mai Yi was like this. Then their two old lands might fall into the hands of other fellow Taoists. Since Yu Xing left, the fellow Taoists who have been secretly spying on Baimang Mountain for the past few years have There are more and more of them. My cultivation in the early stage of Yuanying can't stand the pressure of so many friends. I have to abandon the old land of your six sects in the past. Already good."

Even now that the matter of the demon soul is over, Baimang Mountain has regained its calm, but they can no longer return to the previous situation.Besides, Chihuo of Xuanhuomen and Maiyi of Qiyunzong are also about the same age as Changshen. With no disciples of the sect conceiving babies, even if they forcefully return to Baimang Mountain, they will not be able to regain their former glory. Zongmen Foundation.

Right now, Venerable Huashen and many Nascent Soul monks were all taken away by Demon Venerable, and such a grand event has come to an end.

But because Wan Jianmen was unable to defend Baimang Mountain, all the other Nascent Soul cultivators wanted to tear off a piece of meat from it if they didn't want to smell the fishy smell, otherwise Yu Ye wouldn't do it again and again. Give in again and again.

He was just planning to recruit a few allies to join forces to resist foreign enemies, and at worst to protect his one-acre three-point land.

Therefore, after receiving the invitation from Xuanyuanzong for the Nascent Soul Celebration, he made up his mind when he saw that it was Zhenjun Shiheng from the Zhang family and Zhenjun Xuanbai from the Yan family who conceived a baby. It is a matter of mutual benefit.

Now that Changshen is old and is about to die, and Xuanyuanzong Shiheng Zhenjun doesn't get involved, then even if Zhengyangzong returns to Baimang Mountain, he can only guard the vicinity of Zhengyang Peak at best Those old lands are unable to make further progress.

In this way, Wan Jianmen is still a head stronger than Zhengyangzong.

And after Changshen sits down, there will be no new Nascent Soul monks in Zhengyangzong, and this situation will not change in the slightest.

"Since Fellow Daoist Yuye really wants to show me the old land of Zhengyang Sect, then I will not be polite. After half a year, I will return to the mountain gate with my followers. All the disciples of Wanjianmen here should withdraw." Chang Shen said.

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist, I will handle this matter properly. Even if the matter is clear, then I won't bother you two anymore." Yu Ye laughed.

After saying this, he stood up wisely, took his leave and left.

Zhang Shiping and Chang Shen politely sent Yu Ye out of the valley, and saw him rising into the sky, turning into a ray of light and disappearing in the distance.

Then Chang Shen frowned slightly, his face was solemn, he didn't say a word, and he didn't know what he was thinking about?

After a while, he shook his head lightly, looked at Zhang Shiping and sighed and said:

"It seems that Zhengyangzong will trouble fellow Daoist Zhang a lot in the future. I don't expect fellow daoist to protect Zhengyangzong for a lifetime, but I still hope that fellow daoist can protect Zhengyangzong for a longer period of time. A thousand years is the best. Otherwise, 500 years will be fine. If the sect is of a promising junior, I hope fellow Taoists can help protect them. This is my wish, and I hope fellow Taoists will accept it." Changshen flipped his hands and took out a storage bag , handed over with both hands.

"Fellow Daoist, you're being polite, so there's no need for that. When I was at the Golden Core, the classics and practice experience that fellow Daoist gave me were enough to save a lot of effort." Zhang Shiping said solemnly.

"Fellow Daoist, there is no need to refuse. There are just some small things in it. The most precious thing is the "Qingxuan Liansheng" that I got by chance. I remember that Fellow Daoist is the three spiritual roots of fire, earth and wood. Although this wood attribute skill is not a method of attacking, it has miraculous effects in body forging and healing, and has the ability to regenerate a broken arm. When I wait for the monks to wander outside, I will always meet some people I don’t want to meet. Dangerous things, with this skill, you can also protect yourself more. In addition, I have heard that fellow Taoists like to collect some things related to the sacrifice of nine birds. Do you remember the place in Yanggu of Zhengyang Peak? Shangfu stone wall, according to legend, was the former site of the ancient Nine Birds Sect. Before I left, I wanted to take that stone wall away together. But no matter how I cast spells, I couldn’t even take away half of the mountain wall. From now on, fellow Taoists If you have time, you can go and have a look again, maybe you can gain something." Chang Shen said while putting down his body, and stuffed the storage bag into Zhang Shiping's hand.

He has lived for so long, and he has already understood that friendship and sharing are sometimes the most precious things, and sometimes they become worthless.

What is spoken orally is not as direct as actual action!

There are two important places in the Zhengyang Sect, one is the Hidden Sword Cave, where the inherited dharma sword seized from the Wanjian Sect was once placed, as well as many precious books of the sect; The stone wall, and behind it is the practice place of the Nascent Soul Snake Demon named Qinglin.

This green-scaled demon lord was originally a spirit beast that Zhengyang Zhenjun Shouyuan had received near the end of his life.

Now that it has taken shape, although it looks young, in fact, its lifespan is not much.

Therefore, Chang Shen did not tell Zhang Shiping about this matter. After all, the relationship between the human race and the monster race in Nanzhou is not very good.

Chapter 766 Guarding the Coastal City

Regarding Chang Shen's worries, Zhang Shiping also understood in his heart, so he accepted the storage bag without further excuses.

Seeing this, Chang Shen was smiling, chatted with him for a few more words, and then left without bothering him anymore.

Bai Qi was in the formation, looking at the black spot on the horizon that was getting smaller and smaller, and then ran out.

Jiang Bizhe followed unhurriedly, walked to Zhang Shiping, and asked:

"Master, are the two real monarchs just now the Nascent Soul monks of Wanjianmen and Zhengyangzong? It seems that since Yu Xing was merged into one by the Demon Lord, the life of Wanjianmen has not been easy in the past few years. "

"Baimang Mountain is the second largest mountain range in Nanzhou. I don't know how many blessed lands there are in Lingshan Mountain. How can it be controlled by a sect that only monks in the early Yuanying period can control? Yuye naturally understands this, so why not find allies here? Zhang Shiping touched Bai Qi beside him, and chuckled lightly.

Zhang Shiping has never done this kind of intimate gesture to Jiang Si.After all, this big monster is not as young and ignorant as Bai Qi, so he can't accept such a caress.

"Since this is the case, should we take advantage of this great opportunity to more or less seize a piece of land in the Baimang Mountains? I think the technique practiced by the master seems to be an extremely pure method of fire movement. Xuanhuojian is the fire of the extreme abyss, and it is considered to be among the best among the many fire spirit places in Nanzhou. The fire yaoxuan that is rich in it is even more rare and extraordinary. If it can be captured, it will definitely be of great benefit to the master's practice " Jiang Ru said in a deep voice.

"Huoyao Xuanyan is a pure spiritual thing condensed with the fire of the extreme abyss. Of the eighteen craters in the Xuanhuo stream, only two or three are still produced. Only after every 20 years can we get it." It’s just a small bottle. Do you think there are Nascent Soul cultivators in Nanzhou, especially those who major in the fire movement technique, how many people are coveting the Xuanhuojian.” Zhang Shiping said flatly.

"Is there any fourth-tier blessed land that is not coveted by those Nascent Soul cultivators? Isn't Luo Fenglin, Zhengyang Peak, Caixia Valley and other places the same? This opportunity should not be missed. If the master does not want to go to Zhengxuan Huojian, how about plotting Luofenglin?" Jiang Xi said very earnestly.

"It seems that you have inquired very clearly." Zhang Shiping said pointedly.

"It is rumored that in the depths of the Fallen Maple Forest, there is a wood spirit maple tree transformed by the heaven and earth wood spirits. Every hundred years, pure wood spirit liquid will flow out of the trunk, which is necessary for refining the wood spirit pill. If I can get one, I can be a little more sure when I conceive a baby. But I don't have much time left now, if I don't have alcohol, then with my innate magical powers, I will As long as you eat part of the Lingyan maple tree directly, the effect should be similar." Jiang Xi said quite excitedly.

"The elixir you need to conceive a baby, I will get it for you." Zhang Shiping said.

It is not that no monks have ever hit the attention of that wood spirit maple tree, but its earth escape method has reached the state of being dispersed and invisible, and no matter how many Nascent Soul monks join forces, it cannot be trapped.It is speculated that unless a monk can fix the entire spiritual vein of Baimang Mountain, it is possible to force it out.

Just like the soul-nourishing tree in the foot peak of Nanfa Temple.

This kind of heaven and earth spirit tree, which can survive for tens of thousands of years, is loved by the small world, and it gathers the energy of heaven and earth bell spirits in one body. Although the possibility of enlightenment is getting smaller and smaller, the instinct to seek good luck and avoid evil is already there. It's almost magical.

Upon hearing Zhang Shiping's promise, Jiang Si immediately bowed his head and said, "Thank you, master."

"Look at Bai Qi, tell him not to run away, I'm going out." Zhang Shiping looked at Bai Qi who was running away, and shook his head.

Compared with the monks of the human race, the mind of the monster race will be more pure when they have not yet enlightened their minds.

Therefore, even though Bai Qi has practiced for more than a hundred years, and was raised by Chen Weifang before, and later adopted as a mount by Zhang Shiping, he has hardly experienced anything, so he is even more innocent.

Among the human monks, its mentality is no more than that of an eleven or twelve-year-old boy.

But since Jiang Ru came to Green Fire Valley, Bai Qi has been bullied more.

"Master, please don't worry, I will take good care of it." Jiang Si said, and it stared at Bai Qi in the distance with a smile.

Bai Qi seemed to sense something, turned around and took a look, and then watched Zhang Shiping fly up into the air, turning into a startled rainbow, and flying out towards the distance.

And Jiang seemed to walk towards it step by step, more like a tiger.

……

……

Not long after, a startling rainbow flew over Tianfeng Mountain.

Zhang Shiping was still in the air, before he landed, he heard Tianfeng coming: "Shiheng, you came just in time, I still want to find you in a few days?"

"Is it for guarding Binhai City?" Zhang Shiping said, he swept his consciousness a little, and found the location of Tianfeng in a quiet place in the forest, and flew towards it.

"It's been 200 years since I was born and stayed in Binhai City. It's not a problem to always occupy a place. It's time to change someone." Tianfeng said.

Zhang Shiping stepped into the bamboo reeds, and vaguely heard one or two zither sounds.He strode forward, only to see that in the thatched pavilion among the green bamboos, Tianfeng in a long-sleeved shirt was bowing his head, turning the qin, and tuning the long qin on the table. fixed tone.

Every time the qin hub was turned a little, Tianfeng would lightly pluck the strings once or twice, listening to the sound of the qin with a slightly noisy and piercing sound.

Zhang Shiping walked lightly into the pavilion, and sat cross-legged on the futon opposite Tianfeng.

"I've been learning how to make a violin for a while, what do you think of this lyre?" Tianfeng asked with interest.

"Don't ask me about this, I haven't touched the piano for 300 years, and now I even forget what the five notes are." Zhang Shiping frowned slightly and smiled wryly.

"You guys think I'm tone-deaf, so just say it straight, why bother to tease me? Then Changshen and Yuye should have already left, and you came here on purpose now, could it be that you also have thoughts about Baimang Mountain?" Heaven Feng pressed the strings with both hands, looked at Zhang Shiping and smiled.

"It seems that you also have plans for this." Zhang Shiping said after hearing the words.

"I want Taishu Guang and Zhongli to take action. I wanted to discuss it with you guys in a few days. We are all on the bright side, so it is not good to stretch our hands too far, but the two of them In the dark, it doesn't matter if you make a move. Now there are many casual cultivators who are planning to seize a piece of blessed land in Baimang Mountain. After all, Xuanyuanzong has one more blessed land of the fourth rank." Tianfeng nodded and said.

"Then I need to take action at that time, just let me know." Zhang Shiping said.

"No, in a few days I will hand over the guarding of this coastal city to you. You can just stay here these years. Anyway, you are used to retreating for many years. 180 years have passed in a flash. I want to go out After walking around, staying in one place for too long, the bones are rusted." Tianfeng raised his head and said.

Chapter 767 Divide the Blessed Land

"It's such a good thing that outsiders can't ask for it, so you despise it?" Zhang Shiping said with a joke.

This guarding of Binhai City is a lucrative position, and it is not the new Yuanying monks of the Xuanyuan Sect and the Bixiao Palace, but it is not yet their turn.

"Then I'll help you stay in town for another hundred years?" Tianfeng asked back.

Binhai City stretches for thousands of miles along the coast from southwest to northeast, and the city is about three to four hundred miles wide.

Every hundred miles or so, there is a large square market, nine in total, plus one hundred and four small and medium-sized square markets scattered here and there, and calculated in this way, the square market has a total of 110 three There are so many places.

There are tens of thousands of shops of all kinds in these squares and cities, and the taxes extracted from them every year can be described as massive.

And there are newly promoted infant monks in Xuanyuanzong and Bixiao Palace. During the 180 years of guarding Binhai City, they will get part of the taxes as offerings.

These tax items can be exchanged for high-grade spirit stones, or some more precious spirit objects, which are enough to meet the various cultivation needs of Nascent Soul monks.

However, compared with Zhang Shiping, the Nascent Soul cultivator, the Zhang family has some shortcomings.

Now there are only more than [-] monks in the Zhang family. Even if you count the Su family, the Chen family and other small families that rely on them, the total number of monks is only in the early [-]s.

Among the Zhang family, apart from Zhang Shiping, the ancestor of Yuanying, and Zheng Hengyun and Zhang Tianwu, two Jindan monks, there are only 34 foundation-establishing monks left.

These Foundation Establishment monks are members of the four-character generation of 'Tian, ​​Zhi, Wen, and Bi'.

However, only Zhang Tianya and Zhang Tianwen are left to establish the foundation of the 'Tian' generation. These two people are now over two hundred years old, and there is no possibility of forming a pill.After they died, only Zhang Tianwu was left in the Tian family of the Zhang family.

As for the next generation of "Zhi" characters, there will be a lot more people from the Zhuji tribe, and there are now seven.

There were originally nine people, but among them Zhang Zhiyu died at the hands of Misty Valley Yi Xuedan, and the other Zhang Zhiyi was killed by those foundation-building thieves who fled to the South China Sea not long ago when he was escorting a merchant ship.

At present, none of the nine Zhizi generations of Foundation Establishment has practiced to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and the youngest of them is over 120 years old. It is conceivable that no one in this generation can become a Golden Core cultivator.

Under the towering tree of the Zhang family, their cultivation conditions are much better than those of the foundation-building monks of other Jindan families, but they are limited by their own aptitude, character, and chance, and they are unable to go any further.

Zhang Shiping felt neither sad nor happy about this, he was already used to this kind of parting of life and death.

In addition, there are 13 foundation-building monks of the 'Wen' generation.

This generation has more foundation builders than the "Tian" generation, and is even younger.One of them, Zhang Zhizheng, has the highest cultivation level among this group of people. 110 At the age of three, he finally reached a higher level in the past few years, and was promoted from the middle stage of foundation establishment to the late stage.

Although this person can't compare to those Tianjiao who formed alchemy before the age of a hundred, but if he can practice persistently, then in another seven to eighty years, he may be able to practice until the foundation is completed, and then he will fight hard to see if he can form an alchemy. Dan.

There are 12 members of the Zhang family in the 'bi' generation, including Zhang Bixing, a foundation-builder who was carefully cultivated by Zhang Shiping.However, there are still many members of the Zhang family who are not yet sixty years old, and there should be more foundation builders in the future.

However, even though there are as many as 34 people in the Zhang family building foundation, it is still not enough.

After all, whether it is the nine large square cities in Binhai City, the more than ten caravan routes in the South China Sea, and the thirty or forty heavy islands where the goods must pass through, if you want to open a store in these places, then There must be at least one foundation cultivator sitting in the shop.

Moreover, because the foundation-building monks sent by the Zhang family are all old and hopeless to form alchemy, and one or two of them need to establish the foundation to go to the secular Zhang country to sit in the town, so the available manpower is even more stretched up.

In this situation, even Zhang Shiping can't do anything, he can't find enough foundation building pills for every clansman in the late stage of Qi refining.

Besides, if this is done, it would be putting the cart before the horse.

I am afraid that no family in the small world would do this, using the precious practice time of the Nascent Soul and Jindan monks in the clan to drag those low-level clansmen in the qi training period like soy sauce bottles.

The human heart is inherently an insatiable thing.If the Zhang family did this, then the only fate would be that the low-level monks in the clan no longer had the will to make progress, and only knew how to ask, and only knew how to ask for help.Then once the Nascent Soul and Jindan high-level monks fall, the family's destruction will be imminent.

Hearing what Tianfeng said, Zhang Shiping smiled and said:

"Understood, you should go and help Uncle Guang and Zhong Li go to Baimang Mountain to get one or two good places, but you should not pay attention to Zhengyang Peak. Just now, Changshen, Yuye and I The two agreed. In the future, I will help take care of Zhengyangzong for a period of time, which can be regarded as repaying the kindness of the past. After all, when I was in Zhengyangzong, that Uncle Xu and a few others took good care of me. As for Wan Jianmen also agreed that Zhengyang Sect and it will not offend each other."

Then he stretched out his hand and lightly plucked the seven strings one by one, and then lightly twisted the piano a few times.

"You are nostalgic, but this is also good. People who nostalgia are better than those who are heartless and ungrateful. When you formed an alchemy, the master saw you clearly, and once said that you are a good person. Although he is not a good person, he is not too bad, just a little pedantic, otherwise Du Yu and I would not have secretly sent people to bring the Zhang family to Binhai City. If your father hadn't come forward to lobby, you might have I still can't make up my mind." Tianfeng said.

The master he was talking about was naturally Venerable Qinghe.

"I really have to thank you two for this matter, otherwise the Jiang family might be the end of my Zhang family." Zhang Shiping thanked.

"Since you have said so, then I will remember this favor, don't forget it." Tianfeng laughed loudly.

He plucked the strings again, but when he heard the sound of the qin was already on point, he looked at Zhang Shiping and said, "You bastard, you still say you can't tune the qin?"

"It's because you have never touched the piano before. At best, I am better than you. I can only be regarded as a violin maker, not a luthier." Zhang Shiping said indifferently.

"Let's go, I don't want to see you again today. After a few days, I'll take care of the rest of the chores, and I'll go to Qinghuo Valley to find you. But now in Binhai City's fourth-tier blessed land, only Du Yu's Liang Gufeng and mine It’s just Tianfeng Mountain. Don’t worry, Duan Yu will move to my master’s water mansion in a few days, so you can practice in Lianggu Peak when the time comes. The Qinghuo Valley will be the cave for Hengyun’s practice. He is a Yan Linggen It is not appropriate for Jin Dan to practice in the Green Bamboo Valley. As for the Green Bamboo Valley, it is more suitable for Tianwu." Tianfeng said.

"Thank you very much." Zhang Shiping said.

The two Nascent Soul cultivators of Xuanyuanzong divided up these two third-tier practice blessings in Binhai City in a few words, and outsiders couldn't get in their hands at all.

If Zhang Shiping, the ancestor of the Yuanying family, was not there, then with the qualifications of Zheng Hengyun and Zhang Tianwu, the Green Fire Valley and the Green Bamboo Valley Forest would not be able to turn to them.

The two chatted for a few more words, Zhang Shiping got up to say goodbye, and left Tianfeng Mountain.

Tianfeng was the only one left among the bamboo scorpions, unconvinced, unscrewed the Qin Zhen, and re-tuned the piano by himself.

However, after several hours, he finally took out a volume of Qin Sutra, flipped through it page by page, and learned from the beginning.

……

……

Chapter 768

A few days after Zhang Shiping returned to Qinghuogu, Tianfeng came to visit as agreed, and the two quickly explained the matters related to the guard of Binhai town.
