From Lin Rong's words, Zhang Liang had a general understanding of Rao Yaoyao, which seemed to be no different from what he saw.
It's just that Zhang Liang really couldn't agree with the evaluation of "he's a very nice person."
However, regardless of whether he is okay or not, he is currently in the dark under the lamp, raising insects and dawdling around at the same time. This is the state of practice that he expects.
An hour later, Lin Rong led Zhang Liang to the port of Yuluo Port again.
Lin Rong: "Junior brother Zhang Liang, Biyou Island is one of the fairy islands managed by Master Rao. It has a second-level middle-grade spiritual vein underneath it. It is not far from Lingxian Island. It takes about two days to travel by a small whale boat. It takes about two days to travel by small whale boat. There are three insect farms and several small insect farms on the ground. There are two insect farm owners, one is at the eighth level of Qi training and the other is at the ninth level. They are not weak. Both of them can currently cultivate second-level spiritual insects stably. They will give birth to five, and one will give birth to eight each year. If you are bent on raising insects, you can avoid meeting the two of them for the time being to avoid trouble."
"trouble?"
"Sister, are you saying they will cause trouble?"
Lin Rong said calmly: "Insect farm owners who can cultivate second-level spiritual insects have their own secret recipes and are popular wherever they go. Therefore, even Master Rao will not be too harsh on weekdays. Otherwise, once Once there is a vacancy, it will be difficult to fill it. After all, it is very rare to have an insect master who can cultivate second-level spiritual insects. For example, Uncle Rao has taken a fancy to your insect breeding potential, but if you secretly work with the other two If there is a fight or accident between two insect farm owners, Master Rao will not seek justice for you, a temporary insect farm owner."
"Thanks for the tip, senior sister. I just don't know how my insect farm owner came to be vacant?"
"It is said that he died at sea."
Lin Rong said with some pity: "The owner of the insect farm bears the responsibility of raising insects. It is impossible to do it behind closed doors. They have to have their own methods of raising insects, so it is necessary to go to sea to find the materials for raising insects. You can't expect the people under you to do it. , and it is impossible to buy it from the fairy workshop, you can go out by yourself."
"learn."
Zhang Liang thought about it for a while and realized that it is indeed true to raise insects. Everyone's methods may be slightly different, and the materials used to raise different spiritual insects may also be different. Just buying this kind of thing is too extravagant and wasteful. It seems that the owner of the insect farm is not that good. That’s right!
The small whale ship is a short-distance transport ship for the islands near Lingxian Island. It is ten times smaller than the giant whale ship. The number of passengers is generally about 800.
It is said that there are more than 500 such small whale boats near Lingxian Island, which are enough to meet the transportation needs between various nearby islands, just like buses.
The ride price is also relatively cheap. The trip within a single day costs 5 spirit stones, and every day, 5 more spirit stones are charged.
When Zhang Liang and the two went to Biyou Island, the fee for a single trip was only 10 spirit stones. It was naturally a lot for Zhang Liang in the past, but this is Lingxian Island. To the people here, 10 spiritual stones may be about the same as one or two spiritual stones on Qingfeng Island.
on board.
Lin Rong didn't introduce anything else to Zhang Liang. Zhang Liang changed into the clothes of an outer disciple of Lingxian Palace. The clothes were first-level middle-grade magic weapons. It was said that the clothes were broken and could be purchased directly at the local Lingxian Building, but the price was not cheap. , a set of 80 spiritual stones is required.
In addition, Zhang Liang read all the maps of Lingxian Palace and the hundreds of islands around Lingxian Island, and imprinted them on his mind through the power of the World Divine Mirror, so that he would never forget them.
Moreover, the map displayed in the World God Mirror is more detailed than the map Zhang Liang received. If he has no intention of setting foot in this sea area in the future, he has a thorough grasp of the terrain structure and his survival probability will be relatively high.
In addition, there is a list of daily precautions in Lingxian Palace, mostly rules and regulations, the situation of each peak in Lingxian Palace, and the welfare of outer disciples. Zhang Liang's kind can get 30 spiritual stones a year. If he reaches the later stage of Qi training, he can get up to 50 spiritual stones a year.
It can only be said that this benefit of spiritual stones is just a meaning. Who would be short of those 50 spiritual stones in the late stage of Qi training?
What is really worth mentioning is the "Universal Guide to Lingxian Palace" that comes with the purchase. This introduction is very useful.
The characteristics and taboos of the Thirteen Peaks are clearly stated here.
For example, male disciples are not allowed to enter Jade Girl Peak, and cranes and ethereal fish are not allowed to fly over it. There are even some rumors that once a disciple of Jade Girl Peak practices double cultivation with others, he is not allowed to enter Jade Girl Peak again. Moreover, Jade Girl Peak protects the shortcomings. biqupai.
There was once a female disciple who practiced double cultivation with someone, but later it was discovered that the person was having an affair with another female practitioner. The female disciple of Cholera cultivated her Taoist mind and was killed on the spot.
Another example is that the elder of the Jade Bifeng Library is addicted to alcohol. If the disciple gives him wine, he can stay in the library for one more hour.
Also, there are a group of lunatics on Yunhai Peak who study formations. Someone once went to Yunhai Peak to send a message and was trapped for seven years. Finally, he was discovered by an array master when he was testing the new formation. It is said that when he found the person, he was already so hungry. three years of bark.
Then there is the Spirit Beast Peak, where a mix of spirit beasts are raised. Every year, a few unlucky ones enter and are eaten by the spirit beasts.
Also, as mentioned in the guide, if a male cultivator wants to find a Taoist companion, it is best to go to Bixia Peak. The beauties on Bixia Peak are like clouds, and they do not reject the art of dual cultivation.
However, the male cultivator who went to Bixia Peak to find a Taoist companion must not start a fight but give up, and he must not play with others. Otherwise, there is precedent. It is said that a male cultivator became a Taoist couple, and even went to the folk to have fun and drink. After being discovered, his Taoist partner used the method of dual cultivation to drain out the essence, and finally turned into a skin and bones. He fell from the ninth level spiritual root to the first level. The spiritual root was finally thrown into the Spiritual Beast Peak.
"It's terrible."
Seeing this, Zhang Liang couldn't help but sigh. These places, if possible, should not be provoked. They are too dangerous.
In addition to the thirteen peaks, Lingxian Palace also has thirty-six meridians, which refer to thirty-six mountain ranges. These mountains can be used by Lingxian Palace disciples to open caves. Generally, only those who have reached the ninth level of qi training, or have reached the level of qi training, are qualified to open up to encourage these disciples to attack the foundation.
In addition, there are some life tips.
Such as how to go to sea safely. How to cultivate immortality in a low-key manner. How to hunt for treasures in Fangshi... This guide even tells about a mysterious force called Pinxian Tower. This Pinxian Tower has no specific place and requires an introduction from an acquaintance to enter.
It is said that the little fairy Yan in Pinxian Building is thin and fat, and she is incomparably beautiful. Once a male cultivator enters, he will not be able to straighten his back for three days.
"It's too much. Why is this kind of place so mysterious? Where can I find it?"
Zhang Liang was indignant, but soon forgot about it and began to concentrate on studying the complete version of the Worm Classic.
…
Two days later.
Biyou Island.
Zhang Liang and Lin Rong got off the small whale boat. Zhang Liang looked at Biyou Island. There is also a market in the port here. They are all cultivators, people who go to sea, and people who set up stalls. There are thousands of people. This is just a port. That’s all.
Thinking that I will live here for a long time in the future, I feel happy from the bottom of my heart.
Lin Rong saw this and introduced a few words: "Biyu Island stretches for more than 2,000 miles. There are more than 90 million mortals. The total number of permanent immortal cultivators and fishermen is more than 60,000. Of course, there are mostly fishermen and farmers. Nearly fifty thousand."
Zhang Liang clicked his tongue. It was indeed a fairy island close to the headquarters of Lingxian Palace. Its size was truly shocking. The number of fishermen and farmers alone is more than fifty times greater than that of Qingfeng Island.
And this is just one fairy island. There are nearly a thousand such fairy islands near Lingxian Palace. If you calculate it this way, there must be 60 million cultivators. Even if you don’t count fishermen and farmers, there are tens of millions of immortal cultivators.
Even if Lingxian Palace only absorbs 10% of the tens of millions of cultivators into the sect, there would still be millions of disciples.
Zhang Liang immediately understood why after the nine islands on Qingfeng Island were unified, only 40 outer disciples were selected from among ten thousand fishermen and farmers.
In fact, because there is really no shortage of people, maybe it just happened that Qingfeng Island encountered a spiritual lobster tide, and the strength of the fishermen and farmers increased, so they reluctantly accepted 40 outer disciples.
After all, no matter how remote Qingfeng Island is, it is still a subordinate force of Lingxian Palace. It can't give away any money. It would be really ugly if it doesn't give even one outer disciple.
However, Zhang Liang lamented that among the millions of disciples, there was only one pill-forming ancestor. Isn't this ratio of pill-forming a bit too low?
Moreover, although I don’t know how many foundation-building experts there are in Lingxian Palace, it doesn’t seem like there are many.
"Junior Brother Zhang Liang, what are you thinking about?"
"Oh, it's nothing. It's the first time that junior brother heard that there are so many practitioners in the world, and he was really shocked."
Lin Rong was noncommittal and said calmly: "There is no use in large numbers. Cultivation relies on talent, hard work, and luck. Although there are many practitioners around Lingxian Palace, due to the third-level spiritual veins, deep sea beast tides often break out. . It is common for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people to die in a single beast wave."
"Hundreds of thousands of people die at every turn?"
Zhang Liang opened his mouth, okay! I'd better be content with it!
Lin Rong: "I'll take you to the insect farm. I can temporarily take charge of the three major insect farms. If you need anything, go to Sunflower Mountain on the island to find me. My advice to you is that in the past five years, you'd better block off the insect farm and concentrate on Don’t be distracted when raising insects. Otherwise, if you haven’t succeeded in five years, it will be difficult for you to have such an opportunity again.”
"I will follow my senior sister's teachings."
A few hours later.
On the west coast of Biyou Island, in the offshore area, a cloud of smoke enveloped the area for thirty miles.
Lin Rong: "This is the first-order top-notch formation, the Ten Miles of Smoke and Clouds Formation. This formation has the four powers of a confusing formation, a fantasy formation, a defensive barrier, and a micro-killing formation. There are three hundred insect farmers in the insect farm, and they will all be yours from now on." Under his command. If you are willing, you can also recruit new insect farmers by yourself, but the recruitment fees need to be borne by the insect farm itself."
Zhang Liang heard that he also had about three hundred people. Wouldn't that be comparable to half the owner of Qingfeng Island?
However, before he got carried away, he immediately said: "Senior sister, how does the income of the insect farm usually come from?"
Lin Rong: "The operating conditions of each insect farm are different. You can ask it yourself later! Just follow me."
While talking, Lin Rong handed Zhang Liang a formation chess piece and a jade talisman: "This is the formation control method of the Ten Miles of Smoke and Cloud Formation. Apart from Uncle Rao and me, only you have it. This is also the authority of the Insect Field Master. You must live well and collect well.”
"Yes, senior sister."
After a while.
Lin Rong led Zhang Liang into the insect farm and came to a separate courtyard. Inside and outside the courtyard, there was a river surrounding it, leading directly to the coast.
Lin Rong waved his chess piece, and his voice echoed in the thirty-mile formation: "All insect farmers, put down your things and come to the owner's mansion to welcome the new owner."
