In the past two days, border inspections at the Yizhang country gate seem to be much stricter. After just passing through one country gate, you have to undergo six or seven checks at the border. Just saying that the east border is close to the border with Nanli, they have accumulated more than ten thousand elite troops. The light is like the sun, and the sound of soldiers touching each other is endless.
"Brother, in the past, there weren't so many checkpoints from Nanli to Yizhang. What's happening recently? Could it be that the two countries are going to have a falling out?" Merchants don't rest all year round. Even though the Qingming Festival is approaching, But you can't go back to your hometown to worship your ancestors and put aside your livelihood. Therefore, many merchants who are rushing to Yizhang to deliver goods are stuck in the six or seven checkpoints, and they are very anxious.
A man next to him smiled and continued, "Brother, I think too much. In my opinion, I'm afraid that Yizhang has been uneasy recently, the foundation of the imperial city has changed, or that the end of the reign of the great emperor is approaching." , the covenant is still there, we can’t fight.”
The strangely dressed man who spoke before quickly waved his hand to the latter. He wanted to jump off the carriage and cover the mouth of the man who had no taboos. "Shut up, shut up. This is Yizhang's territory. If it's really what you said, it's possible." At the critical moment, a few ferocious envoys came out and took me and others to eat whips. We were tortured and detained for a few days. How could we deliver this stuff? Don't talk fast all day long when you are out, or you will lose your head by then. I don’t know if I’m wrong or not.”
The surrounding merchants also thought it was reasonable, so they either kept quiet and rested their minds, or they just talked about household matters or what they had seen on the road and never mentioned political matters.
No one came to look. There was a car in front of everyone. Sitting in the car tent was a man dressed all in black. He didn't look like a world-traveling businessman. After hearing the words of a few people, the corners of his mouth slowly raised.
"I was a little unconvinced at first, but now it seems that I am convinced." The man in black slowly lifted up his mask, drank a glass of wine, and then patted the package behind him. , maybe I can give you a great blessing, just be hungry for a few days, don’t be in a hurry."
The package moved slightly, then fell silent again.
"Good thing."
It wasn't until two hours later that it was the turn of the two men to speak. Without further words, the two soldiers disassembled most of the goods behind the tent and searched around for a while. After spending two sticks of incense, they were able to let them go. , as for the personal belongings, they have to be put down to the next pass for inspection again. There are six passes in a row. All the passes are guarded by military armors. All the passing merchants are checked from beginning to end, and everything is clear and transparent.
But when it was the turn of the man in black, the defender was a little embarrassed. He looked at the badge handed over by the latter for a long time, hesitantly said, "Sir, I really don't know the authenticity of this badge. If you don't want to be interrogated, , please stay a little longer until I can present this waist badge to the general in my humble position, and then release it, what do you think, sir?"
"No need to go to that trouble. I will pass the inspection on my own. But after you present this badge, just add the sentence "Old man of Nangong Mountain". I will pick up this badge when I return."
The person in the carriage tent took a step forward, placed his waist badge in the palm of the defender, left the carriage where it was, and stepped into the gate without looking at the curious expressions around him.
Now that Nangong Mountain is about to open, Liu Qing is also busy, looking at the pictures all day long, frowning and smiling; Qian Yin is even more miserable, he has been busy for many days and has not changed his clothes. Now Not to mention his ragged clothes, even Yunzhong's roasted rabbit tasted like chewing wax when he put it into his mouth. His belt was getting wider and wider, making it difficult to tie it up. Despite his eyes like ripe plums, he was still immersed in deep thought.
The elixir method passed down by Wu Shuang is undoubtedly much better than the ordinary elixir method, but unfortunately it is too difficult to understand. Even though Qian Yin's elixir path is traveling rapidly, it is still difficult to find a way. Now I have some clues, so I can only use the objects at hand to learn one by one. After trying it and adding the elixir fire, I was sweating profusely all day long.
"Senior brother, would it be convenient for me to let my junior brother try it? Most of the main ingredients of this Xu Dan have been determined. What's left is the few key medicinal ingredients that my junior brother has put in on his own. If you don't try it for a long time, I'm afraid that this will happen. You have to wait even longer to get Xudan." Qian Yin pulled out his head from the alchemy cauldron. He frowned and smiled bitterly, ignoring the dust on his face. "At this point, my junior brother has been in Lianyuan for a long time. You and I can afford to delay it. , I’m afraid he can’t afford it anymore, the second realm cannot be entered, and the third realm will take several years or even ten years to set foot in, so why not let my junior brother try it in person?”
Liu Qing was also anxious. He put down the pen and ink he was writing down on the pill recipe and sighed: "Why don't I want my junior brother to break through the realm as soon as possible, but this virtual pill is different from the other pills. You can eat the rest of them, no matter which one Whether there is erysipelas, or whether it is harmless, just adjust it slowly later, but this virtual elixir will fall on the side of the Dantian, and the internal energy that cannot be accommodated will stop and store it. It can be said that it is the same energy. Lian Zhi, how dare you be careless?"
Qian Yin was discouraged, "But if we insist on trying blindly, we have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse. I am afraid that by then I will try out the most suitable Void Pill for my junior brother. By then, our junior brother will have been stuck outside the three realms and will not be able to break into the high realm for half his life. What? Is good."
"Senior Brother, Junior Brother knows that you love Xiaosi. You are young and alone, and it is difficult to practice the meridians in the first place. But you shouldn't protect him so closely. One day, Mr. Yun will have to face the treacherous big clouds outside. Jianghu, there are some things, it’s better to let him try it first.”
Liu Qing was silent. Then she raised her head and realized that Qian Yin's face was as green as vegetable. Most of his body was thin. The originally protruding belly had faded a lot. The skirt of his clothes was covered with traces of ashes and ink. His whole body looked like he had been fished out of a pond. He was speechless and remained silent for a long time.
Although Qian Yin is also in the third realm, his foundation is weak after all. He has neglected his practice on weekdays. He only entered the third realm not long ago. His physical body and internal Qi foundation are much weaker than Liu Qing's. He has been depleted all day long. , all the energy in the body is exhausted.
"Forget it, I'll go ask Yun Zhong about his thoughts. If he wants to give it a try, just ask him to come and try it." The scholar pulled out his legs from the messy elixir book and medicinal materials, stretched his arms, and slowly He slowly walked out of the alchemy room, turned around and apologized to Qian Yin, "Second junior brother, you have been working hard these days. It's time to stay here. I'll go back to my room and rest for a few days. I will make two-flavored elixirs for you later. It clears up the anger in my heart."
Qian Yin, who has become half fat, waved his hands, as if he couldn't bear to joke with the scholar, and only groaned: "Don't mention it, senior brother, I understand my kindness, I'd better look forward to this, now I just want to go back to the room as soon as possible. Let him sleep until the end of the world, and then raise those fat men."
The scholar smiled and stepped out.
The matter is indeed over.
How could Senior Brother Nangongshan not know that as long as he asked Yun Zhong himself, the latter would be happy to go. As for whether the Xu Dan was good or bad, and whether he could use the Dan to follow the water and wind to enter the second realm, he no longer cared.
Junior Brother Nangongshan has always been a young man who is so sensible that it makes people feel heartbroken.
I hope God will live up to my expectations.
