Entering Yangtian Pavilion, there was not a single customer inside. A few boys were chatting together. There were also a lot fewer items on the counter, except for some ordinary cultivation materials and some low-level elixirs.
This situation is not that business is bad, but that there is no business at all.
Seeing the customer coming, a young waiter hurriedly stopped and stepped forward to greet Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang asked about the situation and then said that he wanted to see shopkeeper Mo. When the boy heard that he was not here to buy anything, his enthusiasm suddenly dropped.
But he was a late-stage cultivator of Lingtai, so the boy still smiled and said that shopkeeper Mo was in the backyard. Zhou Yang walked straight back without saying a word, making it impossible for the boy to stop him or not.
Entering the backyard, Zhou Yang did not restrain his aura. Mo Chenglong and Shen Tugang both sensed this and left the room one after another.
After being stunned, Mo Chenglong also realized that this aura was very familiar, but it was much stronger.
Because they had fought together, Shen Tugang also recognized Zhou Yang by his aura, and he couldn't help but feel a surge of confusion in his heart. It had only been so long before he actually broke through again, which was incredible.
But Mo Chenglong is not surprised. Even if Zhou Yang is now at the peak of Lingtai, he can accept it because he knows very well and admires Zhou Yang's luck against the weather.
The three of them entered the room and talked about the situation with each other. Zhou Yang took out the animal meat brought back from Cangshou Mountain from the storage bag. Mo Chenglong ordered people to prepare it, and the three of them drank freely.
"Brother, since the business has been bleak, shopkeeper Liang has come here several times and taken away fifteen thousand spirit stones in the name of urgent need." During the dinner, Mo Chenglong revealed a piece of news that made Zhou Yang unhappy.
"It doesn't matter, there are times when I need it urgently." Zhou Yang didn't say anything.
"That's the second thing. Shopkeeper Liang is still asking about the prices of shops in Tu Yan City. Judging from this, he has plans to sell Yangtian Pavilion. Manager Liu also came twice, but didn't say anything."
"He didn't take the spirit stone? He didn't reveal his intention to transfer Yangtian Pavilion?"
"No."
"Oh." Zhou Yang took a sip of wine and lowered his head in silence.
Since Liang Sanli joined Tongzhou Trading Company, he seems to have changed. He has become more and more snobbish, and values spiritual stones more than friendship. He is completely different from when they first met.
Liu Menglong didn't seem to have changed much, but his attitude was a bit ambiguous. He probably secretly supported the sale of Yangtian Pavilion.
"Yangtian Pavilion was bought with blood by our brothers. Even if we don't earn spiritual stones, there is no reason to transfer it." After a long silence, Mo Chenglong was the first to speak.
When Shentu heard this, he also nodded.
He was one of the heroes who guarded Yangtian Pavilion, and he also watched Yangtian Pavilion grow up step by step. Although Yangtian Pavilion did not have his shares, he would be very reluctant to part with it if it were sold like this.
"Brother is right. You can't sell Yangtian Pavilion at any cost. However, we are going to have a hard time." Of course Zhou Yang will not sell Yangtian Pavilion. This is the first step for him to take off, no matter what. Don’t give up halfway, you must persist.
"We have to think of another way. Brother Shentu should also worry more. Yangtian Pavilion also has your share!" Zhou Yang said again.
"Don't worry, I will do my best!" Shen Tugang nodded heavily. Even if Zhou Yang didn't say this, he would use all his strength for Yangtian Pavilion.
"By the way, Cheng Shijie has been coming to Yangtian Pavilion a lot these days. One is to drink with me and the other, and the other is to inquire about the whereabouts of Elder Zhong." Mo Chenglong put down his wine glass and said.
"Captain Cheng, he no longer practices in seclusion?" Zhou Yang was a little surprised.
"The situation has changed. Over this period of time, I see that his temperament is very different from before, and he is becoming more and more bookish."
"You're bookish, why do you say that?" Zhou Yang and Cheng Shijie had also fought side by side and talked over drinks, so they could be considered good comrades-in-arms.
At that time, although Cheng Shijie was fair-looking and a little bookish, he was extremely brave and dared to fight. Now when he heard Mo Chenglong say this, he was really baffled.
"Originally, he had been practicing in seclusion since he returned to the sect. He came out of seclusion a few days ago and his cultivation reached the peak of Lingtai. But when he came to Yangtian Pavilion, he was dressed as a scholar and even held a folding fan in the winter. It's just that he speaks in a coherent manner and looks like an old master, which feels a little weird." Mo Chenglong said.
Shen Tugang also nodded.
"Oh, it is said that he broke through during the beast tide. Within a year, he was promoted to the peak of Lingtai. He is almost catching up with me, haha." Zhou Yang was also surprised when he heard that Cheng Shijie had broken through to the peak of Lingtai. He couldn't help but teased.
"I think it's not even close." Shentu Gang said.
"Yes, you are just a freak, incomparable." Mo Chenglong shook his head and smiled bitterly.
He also broke through the fifth level of the Lingtai under the influence of Huang Lingdan, but compared with Zhou Yang, he was not even a scumbag.
"Haha. By the way, has he practiced Confucian Kung Fu?" Zhou Yang chuckled and asked again.
The reason why he asked this was because he learned from the classics brought by his uncle that there were special Confucian techniques. The Confucian Qigong method emphasizes intensive reading of the books of sages and cultivating a righteous spirit.
"It's possible. There are very few practitioners who practice this kind of technique in Anping and Tuyan, and there are even none in the ten cities in the far north." Mo Chenglong said.
"As far as I know, Confucianism skills were introduced from the central part of the continent and require very high qualifications and physical fitness. Most people cannot practice it at all. But once you can get started, the entry speed is indeed very fast, especially in the early stages of practice.
If Brother Cheng had practiced this kind of technique, it would not be surprising that he would achieve a breakthrough in just one year. "Shen Tu just pondered for a moment and then said.
"What Brother Shentu said is true. The Confucian skills are indeed mysterious. In addition to the special requirements for qualifications and physical constitution, character is also very important. People who are not tough-minded and upright cannot practice. Brother Cheng must have all these requirements. If you have been If you continue to practice, you will definitely become the leader of Ziyuan Sect."
Zhou Yang deeply believed in Shen Tugang's words, and secretly complained that he was ignorant. If he hadn't briefly browsed some classics a few days ago, he would have shown his timidity today.
It seems that in the future, we need to read a lot of books, cultivate our moral character, and not just practice and go it alone. These alone are far from enough.
"However, it is still very rare to change the major skill midway, and usually it is not done. If the newly learned skill is exclusive of the previous major skill, the previous skill must be abolished, even if it is not Exclusion will also restrict and restrain each other, affecting the progress of cultivators.
It is difficult to find a method that matches all aspects. It is absolutely impossible to change the method and practice it again in just a few years or even a few months. Therefore, if Brother Cheng has really practiced the Confucian skills, it must be highly consistent with the previous skills, or his physique is extremely suitable for the new skills. Otherwise, let alone entering the realm, he can maintain the current state. Not bad. "
Although Shen Tugang didn't talk much, he was talented and ambitious, but he just didn't want to talk about it. But when I discuss it with my friends, I can talk endlessly.
"How come there are so many restrictions on changing the method and rebuilding it?" Zhou Yang asked curiously.
"Exactly, so you must be careful when choosing to major in Kung Fu. Of course, it is not easy to change the method and practice it again. It is not easy for ordinary practitioners. Many amazing and talented people in ancient and modern times have also changed the method and practiced it again, and I don't know how many people have succeeded. This person Brother Cheng belongs to the latter group," Shentu Gang added.
"What Brother Shentu said is absolutely true." Mo Chenglong also believed it deeply.
After a moment, he added: "By the way, Cheng Shijie has reached the peak of Lingtai, and his treatment is no longer the same as before. Not only was he promoted to the deacon and law enforcement captain of the sect's execution hall, he was also accepted as a direct disciple by Wang Wuji."
"Oh, it must be Wang Wuji who saw his extraordinary ability and made an exception to accept a disciple. In this way, brother Cheng is very proud of himself at this time!" Cheng Shijie is Zhong Pengfei's loyal subordinate and has a close relationship with Yangtian Pavilion. Zhou Yang Of course I'm happy for him.
"While you were away, Cheng Shijie worked hard for Yangtian Pavilion." Mo Chenglong said again.
"Oh, Yangtian Pavilion is in trouble?"
"Alas, neither you nor Elder Zhong Tu Yan, Yangtian Pavilion has no one to rely on. You know this. It is really difficult for a shop without a background. The Tong family's Zhou Tiange targets us everywhere, but it's just business, there are One time he actually came to stir up trouble. If Cheng Shijie hadn't led a team to inspect this place, we would have been in trouble."
"Hmph, it's unreasonable for Zhou Tiange to come here to stir up trouble! He is so domineering just in business. It seems that the Tong family is not a good bird either!" Zhou Yang raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly: "Then what happened next?"
"Cheng Shijie had a conflict with the Tong family and almost started fighting. However, he was still a direct disciple of Sect Master Wang, and the Tong family did not dare to offend too much, so they left with a few harsh words. From then on, Cheng My brother comes to Yangtian Pavilion every now and then to visit, so the Tong family has some concerns and hasn’t been here recently."
"Well, thanks to Brother Cheng, our Yangtian Pavilion has been able to operate normally. I will thank you very much in the future." Zhou Yang nodded, feeling grateful to Cheng Shijie.
"Cheng Shijie is a man who values love and justice. He came to help out of memory of Elder Zhong's old friendship. We must remember his kindness."
As soon as Mo Chenglong finished speaking, Zhou Yang's expression changed and he released his consciousness outside the room.
It seemed that the deacon really couldn't help but talk about it. The three of them were talking about Cheng Shijie when he arrived.
Cheng Shijie pushed open the door and walked in. Zhou Yang looked up and was speechless.
Cheng Shijie was dressed in blue Confucian clothes, wearing a blue square scarf on his head, and holding a folding fan in his hand. He looked a bit nondescript in this winter.
Seeing Zhou Yang, Cheng Shijie was also stunned. He looked up and down, narrowed his eyes, then stroked his fan and said with a smile, "You are Brother Zhou, right? Long time no see. How are you?"
Zhou Yang laughed out loud and hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "It's okay, it's okay. Brother Cheng has good eyesight and he actually recognized me. Please sit down quickly and let's have a few drinks."
It seems that the effect of this disguise potion is really poor, and people familiar with it have seen through it one by one.
"Thank you for your seat. Everyone, please!" Cheng Shijie returned the favor and asked the three of them to sit down first.
Zhou Yang and others smiled at each other and took their seats.
