Chapter 84: Over a thousand sails
The first volume of the tenth generation leader, the story of the Akayama Chapter 84, Qianfan Zheng Keyi frowned slightly, as if this was the first time she showed such a dilemma in front of Jiang Feng. This is indeed a question with its own trap and it is difficult to answer.
Jiang Feng was also thinking about it. Although whether the other party's answer would be loyal to him or whether he would weigh the interests of the family and the sect would not change his perception of Zheng Keyi, Jiang Feng still looked forward to the other party's answer.
She slowly raised her head, and her moist eyes were frowning, sparkling with light, adding a hint of weakness. Jiang Feng couldn't help but move his throat, and couldn't help but want to withdraw this question, but heard Yi exclaiming a sentence as thin as a mosquito:
"But after the commander of the sect, I hope the Zheng family can advance and retreat with the sect."
He was considerate and thoughtful. Jiang Feng didn't want to get into trouble on this issue. This was just a simple part of his random inquiry test as the head of the sect. In fact, no matter how her answers were, her previous performance on various matters had already passed the evaluation.
"I guess you know your qualifications. Although I have some 'Feilong Transformation Pill' in my hand, I must cooperate with my exclusive secret method to make you awaken the Dharma image. Moreover, this secret method must be used many times, and it may be successful in awakening, but it may also fail, and may even have life worries. Are you willing to continue trying?"
"I do." Compared to his hesitation before, Zheng Keyi's answer was very neat this time, "Everything depends on the arrangements of the head, and there is no regret for life and death."
When Zheng Keyi was sent to the inner palace of the head, Jiang Feng knew that she was the body of the six Dharma figures, and that no Dharma figure was relatively weak. Therefore, at least five "Phase Dividing Technique" was needed to awaken him. Unlike Xiao Mingzhen's background, Zheng Keyi did not have enough spiritual materials to nourish the body, so that he had enough cultivation base, and resisted the damage of the "Phase Dividing Technique" five times in a row. Therefore, Zheng Keyi's awakening may take longer than Xiao Mingzhen and has greater risks.
"It will take at least four months. During these four months, I will try my best to take time to cast spells for you many times to help you take pills. After each spell, you will be in a coma for three to four days. You must be mentally prepared. All related matters need to be kept confidential to everyone."
"yes."
"It also includes people from the Zheng family."
"I understand." Zheng Keyi bit her teeth lightly. The moment she answered the question, she clearly understood that she had broken bloodlines with the Zheng family, and she was the head of the sect from now on.
"Tell me about the recent events in Dayi!"
Zheng Keyi told the story of what happened recently. In the month when Jiang Feng left, the surroundings were calm and nothing major happened. It may be because of the talks between the Seventh Alliance in Hanshan Sect. In addition to the occasional envoys of various sects and sects who had been in exchange for the occasional passage, there were a lot of business travelers.
However, there is a kind of business that has risen against the market and has prospered a lot.
It is said that due to the war between the Seventh Alliance, Lingyun Mountain and Yanqiling destroyed the sect, and there was a surge in slave market trading in Chixia Gate and Luoying Gate. Many casual cultivators who lost their homes and even lost their sects' protection during the war were unfortunately captured and plundered into slaves, and even willing to be slaves to make a living, sold in the slave market.
Every day, there were groups of carriages covered by gray curtains, hurriedly passing by Dayi County and transported to the Yufeng Sect in the northwest. This phenomenon was very rare before the Qimeng Conference.
Most of the young female low-level monks in some beauty are transported in the caravan, while the strong and ordinary men are engraved with special buyer markings on their foreheads and follow the caravan. It is said that in the southeast of the Yufeng Sect, a large number of roads and several new cities are planned to be built, which will inevitably require a large number of ordinary people to repair the details after the construction monks enter the site.
It seems that after the war between the Seventh Alliance ended, Yufeng Sect had already begun to prepare for harvesting the fruits of victory. This strategy must have been mostly from ancient times to spread the word. As a major sect, the natural conditions in the southeast of Yufeng Sect are in winter.
The season is long, the products are scarce, and the density and quality of the spiritual veins are far inferior to that of its hinterland and along the coast of the rocky seas. Therefore, it has always been sparsely populated, and monks and ordinary people are unwilling to come here to live and practice. Perhaps it is a feasible and frugal plan to govern the southeastern border with the help of slaves' development and maintenance.
If you think this way, it seems that you can try your luck.
"Master, I suggest we can buy some slaves, but..."
"But what?"
"The young ordinary and monks have now been raised very high. It is said that the price of an ordinary ordinary slave is 60 first-level spirit stones, while the price of a monk below the third level of the spirit level is ten second-level spirit stones, all of which are more than twice as high as the usual season."
The competition is so fierce?
Is someone raising prices, or is there really a strong demand?
Perhaps only by going to see it in person can we find out the real reason. From the distance, Dayi County is more than 800 miles away from Huiyao City of Chixia Gate and Taoyuan City of Luoying Gate. The ancient capital of Huangshui City of Yanqiling is not far from Qianshan Sect, only more than 400 miles. However, I believe that Chixia Gate, which has obtained most of its territory, will not openly sell slaves from Yanqiling in Huangshui City, otherwise it will inevitably cause public outrage.
“What are some suggestions?”
"I suggest buying some old and ordinary monks with fair prices, skills, or old spiritual level cultivators who are hopeless in the road. In Dayi County, we can open our own shops to earn more. Moreover, I heard that Elder Zhao is studying refining weapons. If there are suitable people in this regard, it will definitely be twice the result with half the effort."
"The idea is good, maybe someone has done this." Jiang Feng remembered the Gu Jian Sect and Biyun Sect. Although they were the failure parties, if they wanted to rise again, they would not miss such an opportunity. High-quality young mundanes could not afford to compete with the monks. If they took a step back, they would have more choices. Moreover, they were originally a human sect, so they had more ideas in this regard.
"I will go and take a look as soon as possible." Seeing Zheng Keyi, whose morale was quite hit, Jiang Feng comforted her briefly. Her ordinary vision limited her imagination. It seemed that it was time to help her awaken her Dharma image.
He told Zheng Keyi to do some repairs and arrangements early and to prepare to take secret pills tomorrow, Jiang Feng turned into Jiang Xiaobai and left Yu Xiaozheng's shop. He wandered around in Dayi County. The two wide cross streets had basically been filled with various shops, and most of them had already opened to welcome customers.
After handing over the land that I had hoarded in advance to the Yu family, some of the high-quality areas had started construction. From the perspective of shape and scale, it should be a small auction house, a cultivation ground and two inns. The former must have Xuan-level monks permanently, and the earth-level monks occasionally need to be in charge of the bureau. The latter are places that ordinary monks or even ordinary people can operate, and are mostly used to arrange for the children of the family who are unsuccessful but have close ties with Yu Xiaozheng's lineage.
Compared with the mature Li Zong Zhenwu City, the space here is wider and is not constrained by the complex relationships within the Li Zong. It is more imaginative to re-paint a piece of white paper.
The residence of the Zhou Xing family is located in the southwest of Dayi County. The land here is the cheapest, but it is not far from the newly built official road leading to the south. Everything is orderly. Most of the children of the Zhou family are hardworking, mainly farming and small business as supplements. The conditions here are much better than Hanshan. Judging from the smiles on their faces, they have already adapted to life here. However, from the breath, those who stay here temporarily are ordinary people. I believe that the monks are preparing for the elite children to learn martial arts at this time. This martial arts is also a good opportunity for the Zhou family to enter the vision of various families of the Susanshan Sect. I believe they are ready to shine.
When night fell, Jiang Feng returned to the store with unfulfilled desire, meditated and adjusted his breathing. It was not until midnight that the last knock of the beating man was heard, and the Soul Fire Palace Lantern was extinguished and ready to rest. On the journey of Hanshan, there was almost no big consumption except for going back and forth with Matthewji to explore the Tuobatu secret library.
All he spent was his energy, but fortunately, he not only got rid of the unfavorable terms, but also won the Hanshan town.
In the quiet aisle, the sound of gentle footsteps came again. Jiang Feng pricked up his ears and felt it carefully. He thought it was Zheng Keyi. What would she do at this time?
There was no expected knock on the door.
Yi gently opened the door and closed it with her backhand. In the dark night, only her concave and convex silhouettes and the faint fragrance after bathing came.
"What are you doing?"
"Sir, let's take me tonight."
“…”
"This is not the condition to help you awaken your Dharma image." Jiang Feng instinctively wanted to sigh, but the words stopped unconsciously when he reached his mouth. The sleepy feeling that had been a little sleepy disappeared for some reason. The black snake spirit on his arm slowly swam. He could feel that there seemed to be a kind of heat in his body, like dry firewood that was suddenly lit in the darkness. The flames growing in the wind leaped and echoed with each other, burning even more fiercely.
Squeezing the heat in his heart, Jiang Feng wanted to drive her out, but he didn't want his loyal subordinates to think that he was taking the opportunity to threaten the other party.
"I was originally the head of the sect, and I volunteered." Her voice was swaying, her gentle body suddenly softened, and her two warm hands wrapped around Jiang Feng's waist.
Forget it, I am a leader, tenth generation leader, and also the leader.
Feeling his unsteady and fast resistance as thin as a cicada's wing, this thought transformed away the last bit of obsession and defense in his heart, and first conquered Jiang Feng himself.
Jiang Feng reached out and carried her "rudely".
…………
After thousands of sails, I feel happy for a while.
…………
The afternoon sun was warm and a little warm, and it was melting the snow that was not too thick on the plain at the foot of the mountain. Jiang Feng was in a comfortable mood and full of energy. At this moment, he was sitting upright on a carriage running, following the small caravan and heading straight to Huiyao City of Chixiamen. However, he wanted to go to Huangshui City, the ancient capital of Yanqiling, to see if he had the opportunity to recruit one or two remaining cultivators in a low-key manner.
After leaving ten second-level spirit stones for Zheng Keyi and confessing to the temporary hired servants, Jiang Feng removed the first residual magic image for her. Judging from Jiang Feng's knowledge, this method is equivalent to a "Yanghuo Crystal Stone", and is likely to be an auxiliary tool refining. Since she is already "her own person", Jiang Feng still wants to leave her a combat-oriented magic image so that she can quickly improve her cultivation and ensure her own safety. As for other common affairs, she can command her servants who are good at corresponding methods to complete it. Before picking up the remaining five magic images, he plans to find some related books to improve his discernment to avoid missing a high-quality choice. Even if she cannot get it, she can find a way to ask Xiao Mingzhen, who is good at this.
This little busy probably is not a condition. He thought of Xiao Mingzhen's playful and fascinating eyes, and his body was inadvertently touched. He took a long breath and stabilized his mind. Only one of the three conditions agreed upon by Xiao Mingzhen and himself was left, which should be reserved for emergency use.
The old places of Yanqiling are mostly barren hills and valleys. The dilapidated and pothole-filled official roads are not much better than those of the Qianshan Sect. They often go around for a long time and find that what they have just arrived is just a place not far from their sight.
Fortunately, the caravan was a good driver, and there were not many bumps along the way. The caravan seemed to have urgent business, so he didn't hesitate to spend money to exchange horses in the inn. By dusk, the three-horse caravan of this small caravan had arrived at a remote town that was only one hundred miles away from Huangshui City.
Pujiang Town.
It is said that since the war between the Seventh Alliance, the nights here have been full of dangers, so no one dares to rush at night, so they can only rest here and set off again tomorrow. Jiang Feng got off the bus with the driver and two fellow merchants. This place is called a town, but it seems appropriate to call it a village. However, he discovered the abnormality here at first sight.
