From this day on, every afternoon on the fifth day of the tenth day, Zixue will accompany Zhao Yue'er back to Shuiwu Peak. Then he stayed in the cave, instructing Yang and Zhao in their sparring, chatting, eating, and listening to stories with everyone. He didn't leave with his sword until early the next morning.
Under her guidance, Yang Zhen's stick skills and Zhao Yue'er's sword skills improved by leaps and bounds, and their actual combat experience was greatly improved.
Sometimes the two of them would fight with real swords and guns, and Yang Zhen was close to completing her physical training. Especially after spending three months underwater at 200 feet, her bones and muscles became even tougher. Even if the little girl stabbed her with the sword a few times, it would only penetrate the flesh for a point and then become stuck, and the injuries would heal quickly.
Time flies by quickly, autumn turns to winter, and it’s the end of the year again.
The small bluestone has been taken out from the stone chamber by Yang Zhen, and there is indeed an extra world in the space.
The two-acre fish pond is located on the outermost side of the space. It is full of spiritual liquid rich in water spirit.
The day and night of the space are consistent with the outside world. During the day, the water in the pool is sparkling and rippling, with a few lotus leaves floating on it.
That was the Jasper Lotus seed that Yang Zhen bought in Yunzhou, a first-order spiritual plant. Because I was worried about affecting the concentration of spiritual energy in the original pond, I never put it into planting. Unexpectedly, Yiyi had moved it here.
However, there are no fish in this pond yet, and Yang Zhen cannot find a suitable species for the time being. We will talk about it later.
After Yiyi heard that there were similar five-element beads in other areas of the academy, she shouted to be taken there. After analysis, One Person and One Grass concluded that with Yang Zhen's current strength, Huoluan and Tuluan would definitely not work, but the deep valley below Muluan could be explored first. So the matter was scheduled for March next year.
Because at this time, it was time for them to return to Xuyang to celebrate the New Year.
…
After Yang Zhen returned to Xuyang, she went to Xingde Hall, Hong Qitang, where the beggars lived, and Chen Fugui's office in the state city to take stock of the annual accounts.
The beggars were repaired several times by Yang Zhen, and each of them became well-behaved. They also learned reading and arithmetic from the invited teacher. Two years later, the look has changed, and the slovenly and lazy look of the past is no longer visible.
Among them, Liu Hao, because of his honesty, has been sent to Zhoucheng by Yang Zhen to become Chen Fugui's new assistant.
This year the space has reached a radius of seventy feet. With the expansion of space, the area where spiritual plants can be planted has increased, and the output has become more abundant. Coupled with the profits from Caiyun, he has saved a total of thirteen or four thousand spiritual stones. Combined with what he accumulated last year, the total spiritual stones are It has exceeded 20,000.
In the past, this wealth would have been enough for him to be complacent for many days. However, after knowing the price of the Five Elements Spirit Pearl, Yang Zhen felt that the road ahead was bumpy.
100 million spirit stones, when can I save enough?
That's not something you save. Since the difference between the amounts was huge, he simply ignored it and bought a large number of talismans and several magic weapons in Zhouchengfang City, including the kind of magic robes that can automatically activate the second-level defense. He bought one for himself and Zhao Yue'er each. pieces.
After a while, half of the spiritual stone was lost in an instant. However, Yang Zhen believes that these expenses are worth it, because after the New Year, they will go to Langshan Secret Realm.
Although grandma said that Langshan Secret Realm is very safe, nothing has happened in so many years, and the occasional casualties also occurred in the fight with monsters. With the strength of Yang and Zhao and the equipment they carry, even if they can't deal with these monsters, they can still protect themselves.
However, Yang Zhen felt faintly worried in her heart. Hou Xian's map and the crossed mountains gave him a gut feeling that maybe someone would cause trouble this time.
It's just that the origin of the map is difficult to explain, and he is just speculating without any solid evidence, so he can only prepare for a rainy day and prepare a few more protective magical weapons for himself and Zhao Yue'er.
However, on the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, Yang Zhen, who was in Zhao Town, Changshan, took the teleportation array back to the Zhao Mansion in Shuyang County.
Because a county official was waiting for him.
…
"I've met Mr. Yang Xiaolang." The person who came was a sixth-grade general judge, his surname was Feng, and he was about forty years old.
After the two parties greeted each other, the man got straight to the point and said:
"Yesterday, an official document came down from the Ministry of Punishment, saying that your father would have tried a case that year. After it was found, it was indeed a miscarriage of justice."
"Oh, what's going on?" Yang Zhen was surprised and happy. He hadn't mentioned this to the Zhao family yet, so he didn't expect that the case would turn over.
"According to the Ministry of Punishment, at the Yunzhou Guild Hall, all the disciples gathered together happily, and each presented his own masterpieces to communicate with each other. Among them, your father's article discussed "To the people of the world, gather the world's own goods, trade and retreat, "Each one has his own meaning", with great literary talent, he was named the best on the spot..."
"I never thought that three days later, the test questions in the general examination would be the same. So the crowd was furious, and everyone thought that your father was suspected of cheating..."
"Although it was not verified later, my father-in-law was deprived of his title..."
"Now the Ministry of Punishment has found out that this incident is purely coincidental, and what happened to you is really a mistake..."
"I came here today to inform Mr. Young Master of this matter. After the year, the Holy Emperor will issue a decree to restore your father's title and honor..."
"In this way, the injustice can be redressed, and your Majesty will be able to smile at Jiuquan."
After Feng Tongpan finished his statement, Yang Zhen was speechless.
This luck, hey, there's nothing to say about it.
He thanked the county official who came to report the news. In the following days, according to local rules, I went back to Zhu's hometown, informed the incident in front of his parents' graves, and paid homage. It was not until New Year's Eve that I returned to Changshan.
In his opinion, this should be a coincidence, so he didn't worry about it anymore. It was not until many years later, when the truth came to light, that he realized that his biological father had actually been implicated by others.
This is something to talk about later, let’s not mention it for now.
…
On the tenth day of the first lunar month, if it were normal, this would be the day to return to the sect and end the holiday.
However, Yang Zhen, Zhao Yue'er and others had already applied for leave to the college years ago, and the college happily approved it.
Because today, they will go to Nanlang County.
Sitting on the ancestor's flying boat, Yang Zhen met several acquaintances: Zhao Ying, Zhao Lian, and Zhao Yuzhu.
Zhao Ying and Yang Zhen entered the fourth level of Qi training almost at the same time. Although this girl has average qualifications, she works very hard in the sect. It is said that she is not far away from becoming an outer sect with 300 contribution points. So the family gave her this opportunity to see if she had the opportunity.
As for Zhao Lian, even though he had the qualifications of Three Spiritual Roots, his cultivation level during the selection competition was still higher than that of Zhao Ying. However, without the experience of Black Wind Valley, he is still stuck in the perfect state of the third level of Qi training.
In his family, he studied formations from the ten elders and heard that he was very talented in this area. He was sent out this time because there were many formations in the secret realm that needed to be cracked.
The secret realm is rich in spiritual energy, and even if you sow some spiritual plants at will, they will still grow well. Therefore, the Zhao family and other families around Langshan have designated territories in it, set up formations, and then planted spiritual plants that did not require much care and picked them every ten years.
The three major Zifu families have opened many of these spiritual plant gardens. Other small and medium-sized families will also open several places, leave marks and set up formations whenever they have the opportunity to enter.
It's just that these small and medium-sized families don't always have a quota to enter. Their spiritual plant garden, of course, lost its protection. If someone accidentally bumps into it and breaks the formation, the contents inside will naturally belong to others.
Zhao Lian's trip was with such a mission.
