If you follow the routine step by step, you will always feel that the day is ordinary and ignore the passage of time.
But once there is something or someone to refer to around you, you will sigh: How fast it goes!
Especially when there are children around, it is really like a mirror of time, reminding you all the time where the words "time goes by" come from.
Two years flew by as Zhang Zhiyun stumbled from a baby to a full yard.
Liu Xin, Wang Nian, and Yang Rui are also two years older each.
Wang Lanping's body and bones seem to have gotten better in the past two years because of Bi Qing Dan. It's just that she dislikes Zhang Yan more and more, because what she is thinking about is Zhang Yan's marriage. Now it seems that she has no control over this matter, and she is very resentful. Fortunately, she heard that her eldest son Zhang Shun and her daughter-in-law Wang Qin were planning to have a second child.
Zhang Shun and Wang Qin went to Yuanding Imperial City together last year to open the main store of the Zhang Family Woodware Shop there. With the support of the official roads extending in all directions in Yuanding, a great development opportunity for distributing goods to all parts of Nanyuan Kingdom has officially begun. He also reached a purchase agreement with the Ministry of War Yamen, and the Ministry of War Yamen paid for the welfare of the disabled soldiers.
In fact, the Ministry of War Yamen was not only eyeing the wheelchair, but also the pair of limbs on Zhang Shun's body. Now who doesn’t know that Zhang Yan can give people with disabilities a new lease of life? But the matter of the limbs has never been resolved. If Zhang Yan doesn't take up the issue, no one can do anything about him.
Look at the slave of the Zhang family. He is also disabled. Now he has an extra arm and can move freely. He can even use the so-called limbs to display the combat skills of a warrior.
How can this not be enviable?
What is enviable about He Xianghong is not only that he has obtained the equipment and limbs that many people dream of but cannot ask for, but also the convenience of using the Bone Strengthening Pill. In two years, He Xianghong finally entered the early stage of Tongqiao Realm from Kaiyuan Realm. With his talent, it is rare to be able to practice to this level, and he is very satisfied. But he could also tell that his master was not satisfied with this. It is often said that "this strength is still far from enough". He Xianghong was often afraid of this and worried about being kicked out.
Because the effect of the Bone Strengthening Pill on He Xianghong was already weakening. He ate too much.
While taking too much Bone Strengthening Pill, the effect begins to fade, while others are eager to see through this treasure of a warrior.
In the past, I wanted to ask for Dan but I needed to go to Zhang Yan's door. Basically, except for those with special connections, no one has ever succeeded. But now since two years ago, this situation has changed drastically. But I can’t say whether it’s a good thing or a bad thing. That is, Zhang Yan placed the rare treasure of Bone Strengthening Pill in the hands of the Nanyuan Kingdom royal family, supplying a certain amount every year, and the Nanyuan Kingdom royal family was responsible for dealing with all the people and forces who came to ask for the pill.
Not only the bone-strengthening pill, but also the Soul-Calling Bell were also placed in the hands of the Nanyuan Kingdom royal family by Zhang Yan seemingly in a unnecessary move.
Anyone with a discerning eye can clearly see that this must be some kind of tacit agreement between Zhang Yan and the royal family of Nanyuan Kingdom, so that Zhang Yan could raise the status of Nanyuan Kingdom in this way.
Can one person elevate the status of a country? This may seem like crazy talk, but it's true. Today, Zhang Yan enjoys this ability in the human race in the entire Wild Sky Territory. Not to mention its own killing methods, just the bone-strengthening pill and the ghost-catching bell are enough.
In this way, the good news is that there is now a way to find the elixir and ghost-catching bell that were originally unavailable. Unlike Zhang Yan, who is inaccessible, the royal family of Nanyuan Kingdom can be said to have an open door, and it is easy to discuss things. They are so amiable that people feel that they can be contacted, but the price to be paid is not small at all, and has even increased in the past two years. Several times.
The disadvantage is also obvious, that is, in the eyes of many Shangguo who did not like to see Nanyuan Kingdom or did not take it seriously, they feel somewhat uncomfortable. There is a sense of déjà vu as if Nanyuan Kingdom suddenly got lucky and became a nouveau riche.
The most dissatisfied people are undoubtedly the demon clan. The business that was originally monopolized by them was first taken away by Beiwu Kingdom, and now Nanyuan Kingdom also stepped in, causing their originally profitless business to drop by 70%. I went to Zhang Yan to plead for mercy, but Zhang Yan didn't even see them. I felt aggrieved and complained, but there was nothing I could do.
The rise of Nanyuan Kingdom's status also forced the surrounding human nations to weigh the pros and cons in order to deal with the unprecedented strange situation in the southwest of Nanyuan Kingdom.
The demon clan wandered around the territory of the human clan, but there was no fight between the two sides. They were extremely restrained and relatively tacit. It was clear that the two parties had some kind of agreement.
Human race and demon race cooperate? !
The first reaction of most people who heard the news was disbelief and then anger. It's like discovering a traitor in your own tribe.
In this situation, in the past, they would have attacked in groups. Even for Beiwu and Huayue, two neighbors close to Nanyuan Kingdom, it is definitely the best opportunity to take advantage of the trend and carve up Nanyuan Kingdom.
But now, because the status of Nanyuan Kingdom has changed due to the promotion of Bone Strengthening Pill and Ghost Capturing Bell, their ideological aversion and anger have been forced to calm down by the actual interests and needs.
The last resort is to "turn a blind eye". Even Beiwu Kingdom, which had long-standing grievances with Nanyuan Kingdom, pretended not to know about this matter, because Nanyuan Kingdom had never made any small moves against Beiwu Kingdom regarding the entry and exit of ghost-catching bells. The entire Beiwu Kingdom is now relatively stable, and the ghost-catching bells are becoming more and more useful.
According to the news from the demon species, in fact, not only the human spirit tribe, but the demon spirit tribe is also more active now than before, and they are all trying their best to obtain souls to devour in an abnormal manner. There are not many countries that can stabilize or barely stabilize the situation like Nanyuan Kingdom and Beiwu. Large-scale exodus has occurred in many places, and the situation is very bad. This is actually one of the potential reasons why Nanyuan Kingdom can pass the customs so smoothly.
For Zhang Yan, changes in Nanyuan Kingdom and even outside cannot make him change his pace of practice.
After two years of accumulation, even if the ghost-catching bell continuously delivers meritorious spiritual energy to fierce ghosts and wild ghosts, it is still not enough for Zhang Yan, who is in the middle stage of Guishen Realm, to have the weight to hit the next realm. If there is no other night grass to fertilize, then Zhang Yan estimates that it will take him at least two years to reach the threshold of the late stage of Guishen Realm.
But for Zhang Yan's three disciples, two years was enough time for their cultivation to advance rapidly.
The first is Wang Nian, this skinny monkey has officially entered the early stage of the Mysterious Vein Realm. Followed by Yang Rui, he entered the late stage of Qi Entraining Realm. However, Liu Xin, who was originally the latest to get started, has shown in the past two years that his cultivation talent is not inferior to that of Zhang Yan. He came from behind and was temporarily stuck in the late stage of the Qi Entrainment Realm like Yang Rui.
In addition, the construction of the mountain gate on the cliff mountain has also entered the final stage after two years.
