The Fu family values etiquette and music, and the family banquet is not just a casual meal.
This time, in addition to Fu Xiangfeng, Fu Maiyuan, and Fu Liuhui, the people coming from Donglai also had Fu Xingqi from Baiyutang and Fu Bilao from Xujutang. Among the previous generation, the fifth uncle Fu Yongbao, the seventeenth uncle Fu Beidou, and the nineteenth uncle Fu He led the team.
Because the elders are here, everyone in the three halls is present. So on the first day of this family banquet, Fu Xuanhe led the Xiuzhitang clan members to worship their ancestors. An immortal tree was raised in Tianyu Mountain.
This essence of wood combined with hundreds of herbs and flowers is not like the sycamore tree or the coiled dragon inherited from the Fu family, but it is mysterious in its own way. If the branches are broken into the ground, the grass will grow.
According to Fu Henghua's speculation, this wood spirit species may be closely related to Master Jiuyu.
Later, Fu Xuanhe revised the genealogy. Visitors from the third hall officially recognized the fourth hall of the Fu family, and the Fu family blossomed and its bloodline multiplied.
In the next two days, the family dinner continued. There was Fu Xuanhe, a variety of spiritual performers specially brought from Youda Continent, to perform animal fighting, fireworks and other performances.
Naturally, during the three-day family banquet, Fu Henghua could not help but quarrel with Fu Tongjun. They pushed each other around the "Seven Star Whip". In the end, the Seven-Star Whip was taken away by Fu Yongbao, and his peers were all frightened. It can be said that both sides suffered losses.
After the family dinner, Fu Henghua rushed back to Xuanyuan Ice City without stopping, pulling his brothers and sisters to start a new stage of Nanzhou's business.
…
Since Chiyuan ordered, all major families sent their elites to station in Xuanyuan Ice City.
Pu Long was ordered by his master to lead the Zhang family's five hundred Taoist soldiers.
As soon as I entered the ice field, I was shocked by the majestic snow-white city in front of me.
While Henghua was playing with his sister, Dongfang Yunqi pulled Dong Moyang, Fang Dongyuan and other Donglai masters to work hard on the construction. If we say that when the demonic attack took place that day, Xuanyuan Ice City only had the outer city wall. So now, all the buildings inside the Ice City are ready.
Ice towers stand on the inside of the ice wall. Mysterious and melodious fairy sounds echoed in the ice city.
Listening to the ethereal fairy music, Pu Long felt that his Taoist heart, which had been polluted by the battlefield, was cleansed and returned to purity.
"Xianle washes away the dust? Is he a music cultivator?"
"The entire ice city is like a giant musical instrument. The experts who built the ice city have extraordinary methods!"
Hearing the admiration not far away, Pu Long looked up.
Ying Ruhong was standing on the glacier with another fellow disciple, looking out.
"Master Yingxian."
Pu Long went over to say hello, and Ying Ruhong quickly returned the greeting.
As the protector of senior brother Zhang Xuanchu, Pu Long has extraordinary combat power and represents Zhang Xuanchu's face.
"The Immortal Master is also here under orders?"
"I'm here to communicate with Xuanyuan Ice City and select some mysterious towers for the Chiyuan Taoist Sect - you've just arrived, so you probably don't know the rules of Xuanyuan Ice City yet. Come on, let's talk as we go."
He and his fellow disciples led the way, telling the story of Xuanyuan Ice City's arrangements for their Nanzhou people.
"Although the purpose of Xuanyuan Ice City's existence is to help us fight against the devil. However, the Donglai monks and the Wuwangzhou monks hit it off and built Xuanyuan Ice City as a stronghold in their strategy of conquering the mainland. In the battle against the demons , we will not join forces with them. Look -"
Ying Ruhong pointed to the east gate of Xuanyuan Ice City.
All nine portals are open, and there is an endless stream of immortal cultivators in Nanzhou.
"The outer east area of Ice City serves as the camp for our Nanzhou monks. There are thousands of ice towers here, and each ice tower can accommodate thousands of people."
Even if You Continent can attract millions of monks, Xuanyuan East District can still hold them there.
They walked through the east gate, which wasn't even guarded.
"According to Bingyue City Lord, the Eastern District is leased to us to manage, so that people from the right continent can come." Ying Ruhong said, "When we return, our fellow disciples will come to guard the area to guard against the approach of demonic cultivators."
Entering the ice city, you don't feel much chill.
The scene in the ice city is not the ice and snow that Pu Long imagined. Instead, flowers and plants are planted everywhere, showing the spirit of spring.
"There is the 'Nine Cold Ice Sky Curse' outside the city, coupled with the effect of 'Juntian Guangle·Longtian Sing', forming a suppressive area for the demonic path. The demonic cultivator entered the ice field and was suppressed by both the fairy music and the cold air. Cultivator Those who fail to do so will be directly frozen into ice sculptures."
Ying Ruhong said while pointing to a jade screen high up in the DC area.
It is three feet long and one foot wide, and images are playing continuously on it.
"Good news, good news! Classes at the Langhuan Pavilion Affiliated School have begun!"
Two children in colorful clothes jumped out of the ice and snow, each holding a "Happy Opening" banner.
Behind them, there are ice sculptures with different images.
"Courses on Qi refining, foundation building, and golden elixirs are all available. Eight hours a day, all methods of subduing demons are taught."
"You can escape with your life if you're not good at it, and you can defeat demons if you're good at it. If you can't learn it, you can get a full refund."
…
Pu Long looked confused: "This is..."
"Don't look at that. It was created by Brother Donglai. It seems to be an advertisement for some class. Have you seen those ice sculptures? Those ice sculptures are demon cultivators who sneaked into the ice field in an attempt to survey the terrain."
Not long after he came in, his identity was discovered by Xianyin, and he was frozen into an ice sculpture by the cold air.
"Now, they have become the teaching materials for that demon-conquering class."
Ying Ruhong continued to lead him and the Taoist soldiers forward.
Many families have settled in the Ice Pagoda District. Pu Long saw many familiar faces from the family. Those people were leading their Taoist soldiers to inspect near the ice tower.
"It's a waste of effort." Ying Ruhong shook his head and told Pu Long, "They are completely villains. The forbidden methods designed by the Donglai monks in these ice towers have long been burned into the 'Xuan Pagoda Treasure Slips' ——That is, the secret key of Xuan Pagoda. They will give it to you when you register later and claim the territory of Xuan Pagoda. Don’t worry about them keeping a back-up. We have checked and Brother Donglai has not tampered with it.”
Everyone looked around, looking at the architectural style and cultural landscape that were completely different from those on the right continent, and they couldn't help but have different emotions in their hearts.
Pu Long caught a glimpse of the flower bed in the middle of the street. Clusters of blooming albizia flowers rustled as the wind blew.
"Is it to build a flower bed with magical tools, fill it with soil and plant flowers to isolate it from the ice and prevent cold erosion?"
The flower bed burning formation seems to have its own watering function. The soil maintains appropriate humidity for a long time without additional operations.
"Master will probably like this method if you take it back."
Bingcheng's cultivation skills came from Panlong Island. When Henghua attended the family dinner, he asked his servants to help take care of it. Plant the three major areas of Xuanyuan City with flowers and trees.
For this reason, many domestic servants have found inspiration in flower cultivation and entered the foundation-building realm of spiritual planting monks.
Ying Ruhong led Pu Long to the registration office.
Hong Changyi yawned and sat lazily basking in the sun.
The so-called sun is the Red Feather Golden Crow. It is the Dharma puppet of the envoy sent by Wuwangzhou Yuzhang. It is currently hanging over the Ice City to receive the sunlight.
"Oh? Fellow Daoist Ying is here again?"
"This time I will help someone get an ice tower - this is my senior brother Zhang Xuanchu's subordinate. He will be here in a few days, and now he will choose an ice tower. Brother Dao, you can choose a seat that is higher and has more spiritual energy."
"The spiritual energy in the East District is like that. If you want the spiritual energy to be abundant, you can adjust it yourself."
Just hearing the name "Zhang Xuanchu", Hong Changyi couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Zhang Xuanchu made a name for himself in the Northeast Theater and is now a very popular young master in the mainland.
But Hong Changyi knew that a small part of his fame came from Fu Henghua, and the other half came from Fu Pengming.
Use your troops wisely and make every strategy.
Under the operation of the Fu brothers, "Zhang Xuanchu" was like a famous general who was invincible but capable of both civil and military skills.
Fame once suppressed Yang Dai.
Looking at Pu Long thoughtfully, Hong Changyi picked an ice tower from the central area of the East District and handed a rectangular jade slip to Pu Long.
"Put it away. The operation seals and forbidden methods are all in it. If you are not satisfied, you can add additional ones yourself, but you cannot erase the original forbidden methods. Otherwise, if the 'Xuanyuan Immortal Formation' counterattacks, don't say we don't have it. remind."
Dong Moyang and Fang Dongyuan worked hard for three days and were now as tired as dead dogs. But they finally completed the foundation of Dongfang Yunqi's idea.
The foundation is like a square plate covered with grooves. Every building in the city is arranged in a groove and can be moved at will. And through continuous combination and arrangement, the Xuanyuan Immortal Formation can generate thousands of changes. If one day a group of demons invade Xuanyuan Ice City, this foundation formation alone can freeze millions of demon cultivators.
After Ying Ruhong briefly explained it to Pu Long, Pu Long repeatedly expressed that he was educated.
"Okay, there's nothing else to do next. Our Chiyuan faction will be responsible for the food arrangements. Of course, if you don't like it, you can go to Bingcheng's Cloud Street to eat."
Ying Ruhong looked a little strange: "Their food is much richer than ours."
The major families mobilized Taoist soldiers, ranging from two to three hundred to thousands. With such a large population, even if they have Qi refining skills, they still need Bigu Pills or a spiritual meal every few days.
The food Chiyuan prepared was a steamed bun made of more than ten kinds of medicinal materials, which was close to Bigu Dan. This kind of dry food is easy to store and has a better taste than Bigu Dan. Under the careful blending of monk Chiyuan, it has five flavors: sour, sweet, bitter, pungent and salty. In addition to being eaten by lower-level Taoist soldiers, ordinary monks also use "five-flavor steamed buns" as refreshments.
but--
Comparing the thousands of spiritual diet recipes in Xuanyuan Bingcheng, it is obvious that they are not as good as others.
"By the way, if you want to order food. Delivery service is currently available in the inner city."
Hong Changyi pulled out a leaflet from the drawer.
"Mark the address of the ice tower, check the food, and someone will deliver it to the ice tower - of course, order the food on the same day and pay on the same day. Use spiritual jade and Xuanyuan ice crystals as currency."
Pu Long took the order blankly.
Are the services in Xuanyuan City too complete?
Ying Ruhong glanced at it casually, shook his head and said: "Order food, I know. There are only twenty or thirty kinds of simple food in total, which is far inferior to the food at Zhuqueyun Street. By the way, I want to organize 'Xuan Yuan Lu Jian' ', where are you going?"
"Then we have to go to the inner city, but the inner city is not open yet."
Hong Changyi pointed behind himself.
Behind the registration office where he was, past several seracs, was a towering ice wall.
The inner city gate is entangled with mysterious cloud patterns and is tightly sealed.
"It will take two days - Henghua hasn't come back yet. If you feel that the current expenses are a bit high, you plan to use the discount. I will lend you my bamboo slips first. You can transfer the money to me later."
Hong Changyi casually took out a piece of jade made entirely of topaz.
This kind of slip is their identity certificate when traveling in Xuanyuan Ice City. Hold the cyan bamboo slips and get 10% off on all purchases. Holding the red bamboo slips, 30% off. If you hold the yellow bamboo slips, you will get a 50% discount. If you hold the purple bamboo slips, you will get a 30% discount.
This is the reward mechanism that Fu Pengming specially held a remote meeting the day before yesterday and suggested that Dongfang Yunqi tinker with it. For outsiders, if they want to improve the level of the slips, they need to top up money or spend money to buy them. For internal purposes, meritorious deeds need to be established.
Now that Donglai has built a city, the monks of Donglai cannot be as lazy as before. You must work hard to improve your own value.
Of course, to insiders. Dongfang Yunqi's management is not strict.
To put it bluntly, people from Donglai came to Nanzhou to gain experience. If you don't work and just focus on your own cultivation, if you advance to a higher level, it will be considered a meritorious service. The city lord's palace will take the initiative to upgrade the level of the bamboo slips.
According to preliminary regulations, a few people, including the two Jie Xian, Yu Danqing and Fu Henghua, hold purple slips. Hong Changyi, who has been through life and death, uses yellow bamboo slips. Those who did not participate in the Nanzhou fight were the red slips.
Almost all of the first batch of comrades who came from Donglai participated in the battle when Shen Fei and other Demon Lords raided Bu Xuan and other Tribulation Immortals. Therefore, everyone is yellow and so on.
The red ones are mostly for the hundreds of servants of the Fu family. Then Dongfang Yunqi selected some of these servants who had good reputations and worked hard, and promoted them to Huang and others.
As for Zi et al.'s request, it must be someone like Dong Moyang who worked so hard and made great contributions in the early days of building the city. Either they are people with advanced cultivation like Cang Lanzi and Meng Chen.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist."
Ying Ruhong happily took the slip.
To be honest, he wanted to sign a spiritual contract and get his own piece of paper. We must also start from the "green slips". 10% off.
But now, it’s cut in half!
After saying hello to Pu Long, he went straight to Zhuqueyun Street to buy the magic weapon that he valued not long ago.
…
Pu Long led the soldiers back to settle down.
Due to the heavy traffic, many Taoist soldiers were hungry, so they all took out "five-flavor steamed buns" and started eating.
But these steamed buns were hard to swallow. Pu Long was used to eating fine food with his master, so he ate two hastily, and then followed Ru Hong's advice and went to Zhuqueyun Street to look for food.
Ice City is divided into East District, Inner City and West District.
There are eight wide streets in the north and south.
Seven of them are convenient for monks to lead to the west area, and from the west gate to the magic cultivation area of the central continent. The last street close to the inner city is named Zhuque and Xuanwu.
It was a shop set up by monk Donglai.
Currently, most of the shops are owned by Fu Henghua. A small part is taken care of by Lin Shan and others. As for the income, Dongfang Yunqi signs different spiritual contracts with each person. Even the servants of the Fu family can get their own money here.
Henghua has always been generous to his subordinates, so he will naturally not find fault with Dongfang Yunqi's move.
As soon as Pu Long walked to Zhuque Cloud Street, he was stunned by a pair of Zhuque bronze statues in front of him.
Two grandmaster puppets!
"This...is this Wuwangzhou's method?"
He murmured secretly in his heart and carefully passed through the archway of Zhuqueyun Street.
A ray of red light swept across the body, and the bird eyes of the bronze statues on both sides flashed with shock, and then fell silent again.
“What a rigorous inspection system.”
Not far away, there is a jade screen on which advertisements are playing loudly.
"What should I do if I encounter a demon cultivator?"
"Look for Lang Huan!"
"What should I do if I encounter difficulties in my practice?"
"Look for Lang Huan!"
"What should I do if I want to ask for Dao Dharma?"
"Look for Lang Huan!"
"Langhuan Library can satisfy all your cultivation and fighting problems. The library is open every day at Chensi time and Weishen time. It is closed for rest on New Year's Day."
"Langhuan—is this the library built by the Lord of Langhuan City, right?"
Before Pu Long came, he also did some homework.
Although the Donglai people are supported by two Tribulation Immortals. But those who actually run Xuanyuan Ice City are the two city lords and eight elders.
Fu Henghua, the lord of Langhuan City, was the man who once pretended to be his master and made a great name in the Northeast War Zone.
The second city lord of Bingyue is said to be a female cultivator. She is also from a famous family in Donglai and practices heavenly calligraphy and Taoism. He can fight with His Highness Shaojun from Youxuan Demon Palace without losing.
As for the eight elders, they did not appear in front of outsiders, but Xuanyuan Bingcheng claimed that the eight people were the core force in the operation of Xuanyuan City.
"Boss, do you think this magic weapon of mine can be repaired?"
"Hey - you line up first! Haven't you seen so many people waiting?"
Pu Long heard the shouting not far away and walked over quickly.
Many monks are gathering at the entrance of "Repair Treasure House".
A wooden sign hangs at the door: "Providing magic weapon repair and modification services."
He should be a weapon refiner to repair magic weapons, right?
What is modification?
Walk over and take a closer look.
Sitting in the hall was a young man who was using a pen to scribble on a cyan ball, transforming it into a fiery red orb.
At the same time, the original cold air also merged with the power of the fire spirit.
It was transformed from a treasure of ice into a treasure of yin and yang that is compatible with ice and fire.
"Okay, let's add this mysterious fire demon subduing seal. Taoist friends can get twice the result with half the effort when targeting demon cultivators."
The monk took it, thanked him, gave him an extra gift, and left happily with the magic weapon.
"Every time I see this wonderful art of repairing treasures, I am always impressed by the fantastic ideas of the Donglai people. How did they come up with it? Using paint to change the appearance of the magic weapon, so as to add the corresponding spell ability to the magic weapon?"
Pu Long heard the words of the person next to him and took out a broken flying sword and a gold seal from the Qiankun bag.
"Sir, can my two magic weapons be repaired?"
Yu Linshan looked up and then pointed at the team.
"Cultivation of the golden seal, queue up here. Otherwise, you can go to the sword-making furnace first. For magic weapons like flying swords, go directly over there. There is a sword-making master over there."
Zhao Ziming, a disciple of Tianyang Sword Master, specializes in sword making. Although he is not yet at the highest level of cultivation, his sword-making skills are already at the level of a master. With the help of other colleagues, he can forge spiritual swords beyond his realm.
After looking at the team here, Pu Long planned to go to the sword-making furnace first. But a monk next to him kindly reminded: "The sword-making furnace? Let's do it here first. The sword-making furnace has just started, and Master Zhao said that there is a discount on sword-making for the first three days, and there are more people there - and they are all over there. A big customer of Spirit Sword Forging.”
Although there are few weapon refiners in Nanzhou, dozens of master-level masters can be found. It can be said that there are very few people who specialize in sword making. Nowadays, there is a master swordsmith in Xuanyuan Ice City, which naturally attracts many people. Coupled with the guidance of Yu Danqing, a master of master skills, the grade of the spirit sword forged by Zhao Ziming is not inferior to that of the old Nanzhou weapon refiner.
So Pu Long suppressed his emotions and waited patiently in line.
By the time it was his turn, more than half an hour had passed.
Yu Linshan took the gold seal and examined it, then asked the maid inside to get more than a dozen Lingyuan colors, and then began to mix the paints in front of him. Immediately afterwards, the color seeped through the gaps bit by bit.
Pu Long frowned: "Sir, didn't you help me completely repair it?"
"The damage to your seal is too serious. Most of the prohibitions inside are destroyed, leaving only an embryo. If you weren't looking for me, you might be planning to recast it, right?"
"..."
"The price of recasting... humph, why don't I use Yancai Technique to splice it together. It can last for at least three months, and it can be used again within these three months. If it is almost broken, it will explode directly in the magic repair. Make more money Money, can’t I just buy a new one?”
He casually took out a roster with hundreds of magic weapon designs on it.
Pu Long looked at those drawing designs and was dazzled. There were several magic weapons among them that caught his fancy.
"Do you have a crush on fellow Taoist?"
"What do you say about the price?"
"There are two parts to refining treasures: cost and manual fee. The material fee is not discounted, and the manual fee can be discounted according to the level of the bamboo slips. Of course, you can bring your own materials."
Yu Linshan reported several charging models, and then kindly reminded: "If you really want to cast treasures, it's best to get a urn slip first. Even you Nanzhou monks can get it 10% cheaper as long as they have green slips."
He moved quickly and quickly completed the repair of the gold seal.
From the outside, there are no signs of damage at all.
After Pu Long took it, he vaguely felt that the function of the golden seal had changed, and it seemed that there was an extra "golden light spell to subdue demons". As long as you hold up the big seal and smash it down, you can use the golden light spell to purify the evil spirit.
"This is the Lingcai Treasure Repair Technique, the secret skill of the Lord of Langhuan City." Yu Linshan said while praising Fu Henghua's creativity.
Although that person likes to dig holes but not fill them, he often leaves plans and plans to let people like them work hard.
But it has to be said that almost all of his inspired ideas can be realized and have endless uses.
"Okay, don't block the way. Hurry to the sword forging furnace - the next one."
