Lanke Chess Edge

Not long after walking out of Tianshui Lake, Ji Yuan said to Yan Fei: Hero Yan, stand still. Afterwards, clouds formed under his feet, and he took Yan Fei up into the sky on the clouds.

Yan Fei shook his body slightly, stabilized his balance, and saw himself and Ji Yuan rising slowly together, the lake and big trees under his feet became smaller and smaller, and the world in the distance became more and more open.

Woo... woo... The sound of the wind blew by my ears. Even though the ground seemed to be moving slowly, Yan Fei knew that the speed of movement at this moment must be extremely fast.

This is a very magical feeling, and it is completely different from the feeling in the water. Yan Fei asked himself that he had experienced ups and downs in his life, but it was the first time to fly to the clouds, so he inevitably felt a sense of excitement, but Standing firmly in the cloud.

Is this what flying feels like?

Hearing Yan Fei's words, Ji Yuan smiled.

What? Do you want to become a fairy?

Mr. asked this question. Who doesn't want to be a god. But cultivating immortals is something you can do if you want to. Yan knows that his character is not the material for cultivating immortals, and martial arts can't be high or low, so he can't be half-hearted.

Ji Yuan waved his hands behind his back and looked at the place where the sky and the earth meet in the distance.

There is a long way to go in martial arts. In terms of potential, there is no limit. Anything is possible.

These words caused Yan Fei to subconsciously look at Ji Yuan, but nothing could be seen from his profile.

This time, Ji Yuan used the escape method, so the speed of flying through the clouds was much faster than the ordinary flying technique, and he didn't go straight all the way, but took a little detour to fly past the Shuanghua City that Zu Yue had passed. Although this city is not as prosperous as Luoqing City, it is not bad. At least the surrounding area is relatively stable. Ji Yuan just flew into the air with his fingers.

Mr. Ji, was that city just now Double Flower City?

Yan Fei is not stupid. When he left Tianshui Lake, he specifically asked about the exorcist mage. He probably came to Shuanghua City to have a look.

Hero Yan is smart.

Sir, if you want to find the exorcist mage, you can just fall down. Yan is not in a hurry to go home. Even if you put Yan down here, I can go back to Dazhen by myself. It has saved more than a thousand miles of travel. gone.

Ji Yuan thought for a moment, then nodded.

Alright, since you're here, it's time to visit and find out. Hero Yan can go with me. It will take you two months to go back by yourself. I won't break my promise if I promise to take you a ride. , let's go.

As he said that, from the bottom of his feet, a faint white mist rose from the top of the cloud, forming a illusory mist path, slowly falling towards a certain place in the city, and then the white mist dissipated, and Yan Fei found himself standing firmly with Mr. Ji On the ground, there was no sense of resistance before.

At this moment, the two of them were in a remote alley that was temporarily empty. Yan Fei looked around and said to each other.

Sir, do you know the way?

Yes, this way.

Ji Yuan put away the calculations in his sleeves, and walked towards the street first. Just now he was not sure where the so-called exorcist mage was, but he could figure out Pomegranate Lane.

When Ji Yuan and Yan Fei walked in Shuanghua City, they still felt that the place was lively and lively. Occasionally, they could see some ragged people wandering around with their families on the side of the road, asking whether they wanted helpers in various stores. Those who fled from other places managed to get past the city gate guards, and perhaps spent the last penny in their pockets because of this.

Yan Fei followed Ji Yuan straight forward, and when he frowned and looked away from the third wave of refugees, he finally couldn't help asking Ji Yuan.

Mr. Ji, you said that in view of the dilapidated state of the country of Zuyue, why can the imperial court maintain it?

There is a peaceful place in the country of Zuyue, and many people who can't survive the chaotic surroundings will flee to this place. These days, there are many refugees and wasteland in the country of Zuyue, so even those fleeing , as long as you are really willing to work hard and earn hard money in a prosperous place, you can buy some seeds, sign a half-selling contract with a big landlord to ask for a piece of land to plant, and you can't live.

This has created a vicious circle in many parts of the Zuyue Kingdom. Around a small number of prosperous lands, a deformed and rich land that completely serves a city or a few cities has developed. In this relatively stable land, the officials and wealthy families Apart from the power radiation, no one cares whether it is starving or chaotic.

Even the imperial court let all this go its own way, only paying attention to the taxation of rich lands, and whether some people support the army to become king or the people revolt, and some are suppressed by strong troops. Others don’t even care about occupying mountains and bandits. The wealthy clan occasionally suppressed bandits for their own benefit. This deformed state has been maintained for many years, but it only suffers from the bottom people.

Hearing Yan Fei's words, Ji Yuan glanced at him, then looked behind some of the refugees who were wandering around the city together, and answered Yan Fei's question with a slightly sighing tone.

Because Dazhen is here.

Because of Dazhen?

Yan Fei couldn't understand this, he was at the top of his martial arts, but he didn't know much about politics. In his opinion, Zu Yue Guo Zuo should have been overthrown long ago, but even if he wasn't overthrown, what's the matter with Dazhen?

That's right, because of Dazhen!

Ji Yuan repeated it in an affirmative tone, and then explained lightly.

I actually talked about this matter with Qing'er. Uh, Qing'er is a junior from my hometown. He was an official in Dazhen. He has a unique grasp of the current situation. Dazhen's national strength is growing day by day, not only Dazhen has a vision The people in the Zuyue Kingdom know it well, and the people in the upper class of the Zuyue Kingdom also know that they have hatred for Dazhen, but now they are more afraid. Everyone believes that there will be a war between the two countries in the future, and this time may not be too far away. No one wants to sit on the seat of the Song family of the ancestral Yue Kingdom to face Dazhen...without the high-ranking family raising the flag, the peasants' uprising and resistance alone will not make any waves.

Even though Yan Fei doesn't understand politics, he understands a little bit after hearing this. There is a saying that the dynasty of flowing water never fails, but when he was still thinking about it, Ji Yuan's voice came again.

Here we are, people are ahead.

Although the street was noisy now, Ji Yuan could still hear the yelling from a little distance ahead through the countless noises, and suddenly he couldn't laugh or cry.

A young man in a gray priestly robe and a crown was struggling to sell his stall to the crowd.

Come, come, pass by, stop and buy a piece of peace, buy my peace blessing, even if in the future evil stars appear black and barren, the sky cracks, the earth collapses, the ten realms become barren, and the sun screeches to disperse the sun. , can also keep you safe and sound~~ I also have a matching sachet here, you can put incense cotton, and you can also put a safety talisman in it, it looks good and smells good!

The young man is holding a peace talisman folded into a triangle in one hand, and a sachet in the other. While selling, he mostly looks at the women. In addition to looking at some young women who are more eye-catching, it is also because he knows that most of the people who will buy are women. .

Little Taoist, what's your understanding of the string of words behind the 'Evil Star Appears in the Black Desolation'?

A peaceful but energetic voice came from the side. The young Taoist in gray shirt took his eyes away from the woman and looked to one side. He found an elegant man in blue shirt and a man with a beautiful beard and sword standing beside the booth. People seem to have great bearing.

Uh, this is naturally a severe natural disaster. It means that if you see strange stars at night, there will be a catastrophe!

Then what's the explanation for 'Ten Realms from Desolate Ancient'?

Does it need to be said? In the catastrophe, everyone is in danger. All kinds of bandits and ghosts come to harm people. Of course, everything is barren.

Ji Yuan opened his blue eyes slightly, and stared at the young Taoist priest intently. The latter hadn't seen clearly before, but now his heart skipped a beat when he saw these eyes.

What about 'the sun screeches to disperse the sun'? Couldn't it be that the sun never sees in the time of disaster?

Uh huh, Mr. Da is clever. When the world is in chaos and the people will not be able to live, of course it will be the same as darkness, don't you think? Oh, by the way, should you two gentlemen buy a peace talisman? It only costs ten cents, and a sachet is also given away!

There was a hint of a smile on Ji Yuan's sullen face, and his eyes swept over the amulets held by the young Taoist and those amulets on the booth, there were some faint lights, although weak and pitiful, it was not completely useless.

But Ji Yuan didn't buy the talisman, but asked one more question.

Taoists only sell amulets? Do you sell items for exorcising evil? I am planning to find a mage.

The young Taoist priest's eyes lit up, and he suddenly became more energetic.

Sell, of course sell, not only that, you can find me for exorcising evil spirits! Not only can you exorcise evil spirits and catch demons, but you can also help people find feng shui tombs. If you find me, the price will be fair, and if you find my master, it will be more expensive. , but his mana is even higher!

Oh, but I heard that the best mage in the city lives in Pomegranate Lane...

Halfway through Ji Yuan's words, the Taoist burst out laughing happily.

Hahahaha, Mr. Big, you have found the right person. Pomegranate Lane is our residence. You must be talking about my master, or I will take you there now!

As he said this, the man began to clean up the booth.

Uh, your stall is no longer available? Pomegranate Alley, I can go there by myself.

Oh no, I can't sell a few of them anyway. I'll take you there. Pomegranate Lane is a little out of the way, so it's hard to find!

The young Taoist was quick with his hands and feet, and packed all the bits and pieces on the stall in an instant, and carried them on his back. There are quite a few people who eat the food of the exorcist mage now. These two college students are so extraordinary, they must not be short of money. If they are robbed of the business halfway, it will be a big loss.

Let's go, two gentlemen, I've packed up, I'll take the two of you there, by the way, haven't you asked your two names, Gao?

My surname is Ji, this is Hero Yan.

Oh, Xiaodao Gai Ruling, disrespect, disrespect, let's go, come with me!

After Ji Yuan finished speaking, the Taoist carried his things on his back and invited them again and again, and led the two of them towards Pomegranate Lane. At the same time, he was secretly delighted. The two of them didn't even ask the price in advance, so it must be easy to give the money.
