Dongyuedaofang City in the extreme western sea.
Zhang Xuanan clearly handed over the position of the second shopkeeper of Xianling Trading Company to Ye Weiyin, and after getting the documents signed by the big shopkeeper and the warehouse, he suddenly felt relaxed and walked out. He did not want to stay in this increasingly prosperous place for a moment. , laughed loudly and said: "Shopkeeper Shen, Shopkeeper Ye, fellow disciples, the mountains are high and the rivers are long. We will see you later, let's go!"
He was not very involved in the world at the time, and was sent to a barren land by the mountain chief in disguise to work as a coolie for five years. This three-story fairy trading house and the "Cyclamen Restaurant" on another street all bear witness to him. The hard work, to say the least, is just sweat.
After the shop opened, he received an order from the mountain chief and was ordered to work as a waiter for five years.
Business was very slow in those years, and the shops closed early. He had a lot of time to practice swordsmanship, practice, find people to discuss and communicate with, and even received several pointers from Taoist He. His cultivation improved by leaps and bounds. Dan, he didn’t put much effort into it, and he broke through to the state of ease after a few days of retreat.
The mountain chief sent someone to announce the new appointment and promoted him to the second shopkeeper of Xianling Trading Company.
In thirteen years, he witnessed Dongyuefang City's development from scratch, from being a sparsely populated city to the current comings and goings of people. He originally thought that he would be allowed to step down and return to Shanmen after completing his five-year term as the second shopkeeper.
A few days ago, Ye Weiyin took Taoist Master Yue's appointment document and suddenly came to take over the position of second shopkeeper. He told him the good news that the temple master had returned to the mountain after leaving seclusion.
He was overjoyed with surprise and excitement. The mountain chief still remembered the agreement he made back then, and the temple owner asked him to return after leaving the customs.
Chen Shan smiled and welcomed the guest: "Shopkeeper Xuan'an, it's not too late to return after the farewell banquet. I'll set up three tables at Cyclamen."
"Manager Shen is very polite, Xuan Anxin accepts it. Let's meet again next time when we have a chance."
Zhang Xuan'an was eager to return home, so how could he stay for the banquet? Besides, hadn't they gone to Xianke Lai's shop to eat and drink too often over the years? Still a kid?
Chen Shan, Ye Weiyin and several second-level clerks gave it away.
Walking on the wide bluestone street, Zhang Xuan'an hesitated for a moment and decided to go to the top of the lonely mountain in the center of Fang City to say goodbye to Daochang He who was guarding the place. He had never understood why Daochang He was such a powerful person. Do you want to stay in a small place isolated overseas for more than ten years?
The other defensive masters in the East and West Continent have already changed.
After reaching the top of the mountain, Zhang Xuanan walked into the side hall and saw Taoist He who had put down his scroll. After being briefed by the monks guarding the temple, he bowed and briefly explained his purpose, thanked Taoist He for his care and guidance, and said a few polite words.
He Guangjun signaled that there was no need to be polite and showed a smile: "When you see Guanzhu Zhang, say hello for me. I will visit you again in a few years when I am free, or he passes by Dongyue Island and comes to see me."
He stood up and walked out the door, saying gentle words of encouragement.
The biggest change in his ten years as an official is that he has curbed his sharp edge, no longer pricking people like a hedgehog, and learned to speak polite words that are difficult to distinguish between true and false.
Of course, his politeness also affects people. For example, he looks at the talented swordsman in front of him differently.
He would appreciate this young swordsman even more if he concentrated on swordsmanship in Xianling Temple. Unfortunately, he learns everything from swordsmanship to spells to martial arts and bodywork, and likes to try everything.
A few years ago, I realized the sword realm of "integrating with the body", and it didn't seem to take much effort.
It can only be said that people are different. He can give general guidance on basic swordsmanship training, but he cannot use his own experience to give guidance. He has a sect to teach him.
He has been observing this little sword cultivator for several years and has some opinions about this little sword cultivator. Zhang Xuan'an has a slippery temperament, he is unpredictable in everything he does, and he also likes to play clever tricks. This is reflected in the fact that he cannot follow a pure path in terms of sword intention. He wants to break through the third sword. It is very difficult to achieve "congruence with one's intention".
He can only wait and see if the Tao is different, and see if Guanzhu Zhang can teach a disciple comparable to Shui Qingru?
Zhang Xuanan was a little flattered, and Taoist He sent him off in person, which was enough to brag about for several years.
Walking to the bluestone field in front of the stone hall, He Guangjun suddenly looked to the left in the direction of the street down the mountain. Dongyue Daofang City is the hub of the east and west continents. In recent years, fourth-level monks often come and stay.
But this was the first time I saw a fourth-level demon cultivator.
Didn't the patrolling monks even report it?
Did he not notice it, or did he report it to other guarding monks?
The current Fang City has two fourth-level strongholds from the east and west continents, with ten years as a small term. He is to obtain more cultivation resources for the sect, such as three-breaking and four-breaking realm-breaking pills, so there are many Guard for one term.
His men defeated the shaman warrior Shi Yin from the Western Continent. After repairing his stumps, he came to the island to defend himself in the eleventh year. They were both ruthless characters. They could create different sparks of inspiration when they communicated with each other. Occasionally, they would also exchange a few moves. The days on the island were a bit interesting.
After waving Zhang Xuanan, who was saluting, to go down the mountain, He Guangjun took out the yellow talisman, silently recited a few words, and sent out several messages one after another.
He wanted to ask Shi Yin if he knew about this, and also ask the visiting monks.
The particularly burly man in black robes walking on the street suddenly turned around and looked at the top of the mountain. He let out a whistle, and echoing whistles came from all over the nine streets.
He Guangjun was shocked. He had already seen several fourth-level monks emerging on the street. Are there thieves trying to rob the market?
He curled his fingers and struck the air repeatedly, "Dang Dang", and the alarm bell hanging in front of the stone hall made a continuous loud sound.
Almost at the same time, earth-shattering explosions erupted all over the city below.
Thick smoke and fire were everywhere, and the streets were in chaos, with shouts of death and screams intertwined.
The thieves used talismans and spells to destroy several nodes of Fangshi's formation. They were very familiar with the situation in Fangshi. It was obvious that there was collusion among the thieves. They had been setting it up for an unknown period of time, but Fangshi was unaware of it.
He Guangjun stared at the fourth-level demon cultivator who showed his demonic ape form. He flew up and shouted: "Shi Yin, hurry up and kill the thieves. Don't act alone. The thieves who robbed Fang City currently have six fourth-level masters, two of them." It’s a fourth-level monster, and there are more than twenty third-level thieves, and their origins are unknown. The other monks protecting the workshop perform their duties, activate the backup formations in the market, and send out summons for help. Don’t panic, everyone! "
The sound rumbled far away, covering up the noise and explosions below.
He didn't dare to rush down alone. His duty was to guard and protect the city, not to kill randomly.
Shi Yin, who was wearing a black and red robe, flew out from his residence in the back mountain. He looked at the chaotic situation below, his eyes burning, and two other fourth-level monks who were guarding the place arrived.
"How to do it? Lao He, please speak."
"That monster ape is the leader of the thieves. Shi Yin and I intercept and kill him. Lao Ling and Fellow Daoist Xiao are responsible for containment and cover. Let's not distract our forces. Everyone else on the top of the mountain, activate the formation and quickly organize the team of monks to go down the mountain. Let's go!"
He Guangjun gave the order, and the monks running out from all over agreed.
The four people were like four sharp arrows, divided into two groups and shot at the demon ape that was leaping and roaring several miles away.
