Chapter 219 Return to Shangfang City

After encountering the little episode between Lu Ding and Ma Jiang.

Fang Dushu's itinerary on the Liangjie Mountain ended here, and then he entered the territory of Li.

Because Xiaoying was accompanying him and was inconvenient to show up, Fang Dushu deliberately bypassed the familiar Wuyuan City and did not visit the Fu family monks, but went straight to Shangfang City.

In a flash, Shangfang City has been rebuilt for more than 20 years.

This city is located in Qingjian Forest in the northern part of Longzhou. This forest was the headquarters of the Fu Du Sect in the past and covers a vast area.

Since the demise of the Fu Po Sect a hundred years ago, the Qingjian Forest has become a deserted forest that is rarely visited, originally used as the junction buffer between the Zhenwen Sect and the Guifu Sect.

However, with the outbreak of a demonic disaster, the Ghost Sect was destroyed by the chaos, and the territory was divided by the Li sects. Qingjianlin was also taken by the Zhenwen Sect for its own use, and moved to ordinary people to build cities.

According to the initial plan, the Zhenwen Sect planned to divide Qingjianlin into four and hand it over to the four aristocratic families for jurisdiction. However, during the period of the demon disaster, Fang Dushu made great contributions because of his guard Xia Qiwen and killed the commander of the demon clan. He lobbied to Xia Qiwen and reported that the sect leader Qingjianlin into two and divided half of it to the Fang family.

Master Xia Qiwen agreed to his request after he was rewarded with his protection.

As for Xiaoying, he found that the magic power fluctuations on Xiaoying were deeper than Du Shu, but he did not dare to guess that Xiaoying was an old monk in the Jindan stage. Because Xiaoying was so weird, he actually hugged Qingqing's arm and looked like a follower. Will the old monk in the Jindan stage be so decent?

He was confused, but he did not ask. No matter how Xiaoying's cultivation was, he was accompanying his seventh uncle. After returning home this time, he brought so many seniors in the foundation-building stage, Shangfang City's reputation will surely make a sensation in Zhucheng, Longzhou.

After saying that, he waved his hand: "Get up!"

Fang Dushu asked: "I was summoned by my ancestors when I was in Xiaoyuan Temple. He told me to go back to the school to retreat. During this period, I could use a furnace. Have all our Lishui furnaces been sealed?"

Fang Dushu explained to Qingqing and Lu Ding again, and then returned to Shangfang City General Assembly alone.

Fang Dushu and his group were riding on the bone car driven by Qingqing. He signaled Qingqing to land, jumped out of the car, and walked to the middle-aged monk and replied: "Li Jie, you should be in your forties or fifties. Why is your cultivation still in the Qi training period?"

After several people sat down, Fang Xianfu, Yin Jue, and Fang Lixin did not ask about where Fang Dushu was missing for the years, and they all inquired about the situation of the war.

If the ancestor is a treasurer, but the ancestor's surname is Qi, the Qi family has many juniors with excellent qualifications and cultivation level. Why don't they give these juniors privileges and choose Fang Dushu?

When the demon disaster broke out, when Fang Dushu returned to Shangfang City, the first tribe member he met was Fang Lijie. At that time, his cultivation had reached the late stage of Qi training, but more than twenty years later, he was still standing still.

After Fang Lijie stood up, Fang Dushu introduced the four Xiushu Qingqing, Xiaoying, Deer Ding and Ma Jiang behind him.

The Gao Fei and Gao Li brothers and sisters also supported Xia Qiwen in Heitou Mountain. It was with this friendship that the Gao family could get the territory.

Fang Dushu has been missing for many years, and these elders of the Fang family are worried about it. Otherwise, Fang Xiande would not have been sent to Xueqi City. They have lived there for more than ten years just to go to the snow field to investigate Fang Dushu's whereabouts.

But Fang Dushu was not aware of this relationship. He heard that Qi Shouzhen was going to go to the Gao family to investigate the situation of the monks, so he did not interfere.

Back then, Sun Aofu once went to the Zhenwen Sect’s headquarters to find Qi Changzhen. The monks of the Qi family might have met Sun Aofu.

He led Fang Dushu directly to the welcome hall of the headquarters.

"Are there any foreign monks who have lived in residence recently?"

Qi Shouzhen knew that Fang Dushu had just returned to the city and must have something to discuss with his tribe members, so he was inconvenient to stay for more and quickly proposed to leave.

When everyone sat down again, Fang Dushu and Qi Shouzhen sat in the head of the hall. Although Qi Shouzhen had a high status, his cultivation was weaker than Fang Dushu, so he would not have so much restraint.

"It must be!" Fang Lijie said: "The most hidden thing is the Snake Pan Realm, Uncle Qi. If you help me seize that barrier, it has been used as a secret stronghold of the Fang family over the years."

When Fang Dushu visited Shangfang City more than 20 years ago, there were four Lingfengs specially provided to the elders of the Foundation Establishment Period, belonging to Fang Dushu, Fang Xianfu, Fang Xiande and Yin Jue.

According to seniority, Qi Shouzhen is Qi Changzhen's cousin and Qi Jianting's uncle.

"Qi Shouzhen? I know him."

"It seems to be called Qi Shouzhen!"

The Fang Family Headquarters is located on the lake. It is a landscape city composed of more than ten spiritual peaks. There are dense pavilions and palaces on the peaks, all of which are the caves of the Fang Family monks.

Fang Dushu already knew it, and he asked Fang Lijie again: "Does there be any hidden residences in Shangfang City?"

"They will not enter the city for the time being, please arrange them into the snake world!" Fang Dushu turned around and pointed at Qingqing and cultivating: "When entering the world, you cannot alarm the monks of the Zhenwen Sect in the General Assembly."

Since the Fang family had suffered a disaster of overthrow, they cherished the new foundation of Shangfang City and opened more than ten posts in the territory. The Fang family members were guarding each year. Once there was a stir, the news could be transmitted to the Fang family headquarters located in the inner city.

"What is the name of the leader?"

At present, the disciples who are following Qi Lianzhen are carefully selected without exception and all have privileged places to participate in the war.

He was ordered to inspect the main hall today. Two elders, Fang Xianfu and Yin Jue, were accompanying Zhenwen to send distinguished guests. He was the only one who went out and happened to receive Fang Dushu.

Fang Dushu said just now that the ancestor of Zhenwen Sect summoned him personally, so he must have known the war well.

Because of this imperial order, Qi Shouzhen arrived in Shangfang City. When counting the household registration of Fang family monks, they were reluctant to directly use the rules to suppress others.

Fang Dushu has already obtained the privileges chosen by the ancestors. Not only is it foolproof to make pills, it should be almost certain to make sure.

If the Nascent Soul monk may also die in battle, then the battle loss between the Qi Training Stage and the Foundation Establishment Stage juniors will be unimaginable.

Fang Lijie said with a normal heart and neither humble nor arrogantly: "Although my nephew is not lazy in practicing martial arts, he tries to break through every few years, he always fails to succeed. I thought that my nephew would not have the blessing of immortality, but I am very satisfied to have a body that will never cause any disease in this life."

The Qingjian Forest territory is divided into two, half of which belongs to the Fang family in Shangfangcheng, and the other half belongs to the Gao family in Chaohai City. In the territory of Heitou Mountain, Guifumen, Fang Dushu, once fought side by side with Gao Fei Gaoli, the elder of the foundation-building stage of the Gao family, and sniped the demon cultivator together.

Who knew that Fang Dushu called him aside and asked him privately: "Are your third uncle and the others in the city?"

At this time, Fang Xianfu Yin Jue and Zhenwen Sect distinguished guests were gathered together, discussing the household registration of the monks in Shangfang City. Seeing Fang Dushu suddenly came back, there was a series of greetings.

These monks of the Fang family only had the cultivation level of Qi Practice. Seeing Fang Dushu and his group had a high level of magic power, they first politely bowed their heads. When they looked up, the middle-aged monk in the lead saw Fang Dushu's appearance clearly and became excited.

In the center of Qingjian Forest is a large lake.

The guard post was built on a hillside where there were stone caves that could be temporarily settled.

Qi Daoming sent Qi Lianzhen to Lishan, which was the fire to protect Zhenwen Sect. If the Hexi Immortal Cultivation World is defeated in the future and the Zhenwen Sect’s headquarters is broken, Qi Lianzhen will hide in Lishan.

"seal?"

The Gao family and the Fang family have been neighbors for more than 20 years. The Gao family knew that the Fang family had a background in the Zhenwen School and tried their best to win over them in daily life. The two families had a deep friendship. No matter any disputes with monks in the outer city, the two families would advance and retreat together.

Lishan is located in the easternmost part of the Hexi Immortal Cultivation World. If the Gouye people really invade in the future, then Lishan is the farthest place from the battlefield.

Since then, Shangfang City has risen from the green miasma forest and has stood for more than 20 years.

He knelt on the ground and shouted happily: "Uncle Qi, you are finally back!"

Fang Xianfu, Yin Jue, and Fang Lixin were stunned and couldn't help but twitch. They originally hoped that Fang Dushu could reveal some positive news, but unexpectedly, it was such a cold and unacceptable bolt from the blue.

After dealing with the matters in Shangfang City, Fang Dushu will still go to Lishan. There is a literary master in the township sect. Fang Dushu will go to visit him at that time.

"Uncle San and his uncle are here, Uncle Xiande went to Xueqi City. He has been living there for many years to find out your whereabouts!"

"Customer Residence? Yesterday, a group of seniors from the Zhenwen Sect came to investigate the household registration of monks from Shangfangcheng and Chaohai City. Uncle Qi, many fellow practitioners of casual cultivators have recently passed by, and they all said that they were going to fight soon. Is this news really true?"

Fang Dushu asked first: "Senior Brother Qi should be in charge of the oven hall, why did he go out for a job?"

Qi Shouzhen stroked his goatee and sighed, "Our Lishui oven is temporarily sealed, and the oven hall is idle. I have nothing to do, so I was sent down the mountain."

"ah?"

Qi Shouzhen is not among the quota. He is over 100 years old and his cultivation is stagnant in the middle stage of foundation building. He can never go further. With his mediocre qualifications, there is almost no hope of forming pills.

After sending him away, Fang Xianfu, Yin Jue and Fang Lixin surrounded Fang Dushu and returned to the living room.

After regaining his consciousness, Fang Xianfu asked, "What will happen if we lead the Fang family members to escape from Li State and avoid the war?"

"Don't worry about these things. Regardless of whether you are fighting or not, the clan has made proper arrangements for you! Tell me, what are the names of those seniors in the Zhenwen Sect?"

"Let me leave one for you!"

Fang Dushu said concisely: "The war is inevitable. You all must be prepared for a big battle. From now on, you must start hoarding combat supplies! The scale of this war is very large, and even the Nascent Soul Patriarch may fall, let alone the juniors, you must be mentally prepared!"

Qi Shouzhen said: "The one stationed in Lishan is Master Lianzhenwen, and she is also the oldest relative of my generation!"

He thought Uncle Qi would take all his seniors directly to the inner city to linger.

He could see that Ma Jiang was a cultivator in the Qi training stage, and he was sure that Qingqing and Lu Ding were both predecessors in the Foundation Establishment stage.

Fang Lijie has been guarding the southern households of Shangfang City all year round. When monks from Zhucheng, Longzhou visited Shangfang City, his post was a must-pass place. Although he had low cultivation, his knowledge was not shallow. Even the old seniors in the Jindan stage had met him in person.

Fang Dushu smiled and said, "You can see it!"

On the way, Fang Dushu asked him: "Senior Brother Qi, who is the Wenshi stationed in Lishan?"

At this moment, they felt a little relieved when they saw Fang Dushu return, but the big rock hanging in their hearts was still not put down.

As soon as Fang Dushu and his group entered the edge of the territory, a monk from the Fang family blocked his way: "Welcome several seniors to pass through Shangfang City. I wonder if the seniors are visiting the city of Phish or a pure way? I am willing to give it to... Uncle Seven!"

Fang Dushu had an impression of this name. When he built foundation and refined dishes, he needed to go to the furnace palace to apply for a furnace furnace. At that time, the deacon in the Dharma Hall was Qi Shouzhen.

Now there is another one, which belongs to Fang Lixin, a generation of Fang Family Li.

Fang Lixin was also an old tribe who settled in the Snake Realm. He was a few years younger than Fang Lijie. He had successfully built a foundation when Fang Dushu was in seclusion in Shuanghe Valley.

"This..." Fang Lijie felt embarrassed: "Uncle Qi, our Shangfang City General Altar is built on Qinghu, and the Snake Pan Realm is opened at the bottom of Qinghu. It is difficult not to disturb the seniors of the Zhenwen School. I have no choice, and I don't have the key to enter the boundary."

Qi Shouzhen smiled at him: "The ancestor's imperial order has been sent back to the main altar. Not only has a furnace left for you, but he also specially reminded the alchemist in the Huandan Hall to refine it for you no matter what elixir you want."

He also knew that he would participate in the war in the future, but he knew nothing about the situation on the front line. As soon as Fang Dushu came back from Xiaoyuan Temple, he gave Fang Dushu a favor first. When he finished the work from Chaohai City, he would ask Fang Dushu for information.

Maybe in a few years, Fang Dushu will become the third literary master who will advance to the Yitian Mai after Qi Guangxiang.

"Then you take them to your post first!" Fang Dushu instructed him: "I will go back to the city alone. At that time, I will ask Xianfu to come over and arrange them personally!"

This kind-hearted middle-aged monk was the nephew of the Fang Dushuli generation, named Fang Lijie, and was also one of the more than 30 core clan members who followed Fang Xianfu into the Snake World.

Recently, many cities in Longzhou have been rumoring to spread the news of war. It is said that this war is several times more terrifying than the last monster disaster, which makes people panic. Everyone is visiting each other and wanting to inquire about the detailed information about the war. Unfortunately, there are very few monks who know the details.

When Qi Shouzhen thought of this, he decided to commit personal gains and abuse his power: "Since Junior Brother Fang has returned to the city, then the number of registered monks in Shangfang City will be decided by Junior Brother Fang. I will go to Chaohai City first and wait until I can count the household registration of Chaohai City, and then I will come back to ask Junior Brother Fang for a list."

"There were four or five people coming, and no other seniors except the leader had their names."

When Qi Shouzhen heard the ancestor's imperial order, he was as confused as other disciples of the Zhenwen Sect. Fang Dushu had been missing for more than ten years, so why was he suddenly so popular with the ancestor?

After so many years of operation and construction, Qingjian Forest has undergone earth-shaking changes, with buildings in the country booming and business thriving.

Fang Dushu couldn't help but send him out of Shangfang City himself.

"The law enforcement envoy of the Zhenwen Sect will arrest you and then wipe it out on the spot!"

Fang Dushu showed his attitude: "At present, the ancestor of Zhenwen School attaches great importance to me for some reason, but if I accompany you to escape, then the ancestor may come to arrest me personally, and no one of us can escape!"

"Then you have to join the war!"

Fang Xianfu took a deep breath and then said, "A Qi, both the elders can participate in the war, and there is no problem in mobilizing monks over thirty years old in the clan to participate in the war, but we must leave a group of Fang family fire seeds to protect them and keep them away from this war!"
Chapter completed!
