"I heard what Elder Zhong said. Brother Zhou has made rapid progress and is really a role model for our generation. I have long wanted to talk to Brother Zhou. I don't want to meet him by chance today. It is really a blessing. I hope Brother Zhou will not hesitate to teach me."

Zhou Yang felt his teeth were a little sore, but he was being praised and he couldn't say anything else. However, Cheng Shijie had called him Brother Zhou before, and now he was not used to it.

But he still smiled and said: "Brother Cheng is ridiculous. I just have some luck. I can't compare with Brother Cheng. I should ask Brother Cheng for advice. By the way, first of all, congratulations to Brother Cheng for his breakthrough and promotion! Later, thank you, Brother Cheng."

Tiange’s kindness in helping us!”

"Haha, you're welcome. It's my duty to take action. Elder Zhong once told me that we must take good care of Yangtian Pavilion."

"Brother Cheng, you value love and justice, you are a role model for our generation!" Zhou Yang gave a thumbs up.

"Drink first, drink first." Mo Chenglong knew Cheng Shijie's character. If Zhou Yang continued to be so polite with him, he would never have another meal.

The four of them drank and chatted happily. During the dinner, Cheng Shijie still acted like a scholar. However, he did read a lot of books and his conversational skills were extraordinary.

Confucian classics have in-depth explanations of life insights and principles. Although Cheng Shijie is very popular as a writer, he is not a pedantic and conservative person. His character of advocating friends and righteousness has not changed. He answered Zhou Yang's questions and answered everything he knew.

.

After a conversation, Zhou Yang gained a better understanding of Confucianism and benefited a lot.

The few people chatted happily. Cheng Shijie had never tasted the meat of panshan leopard and snow turtle, and after eating it, he praised the deliciousness.

After that, he took out two bottles of wine from his storage bag, poured a glass for each of Zhou Yang and the others, then poured the wine himself, made an invitation gesture to the three of them, and drank it all in one gulp.

The three of them also drank the wine. It was hot and slightly bitter in the mouth, and then a wave of hot pain entered the internal organs. After a few breaths, they felt extremely comfortable.

The three of them closed their eyes and thought about it, all showing signs of enjoyment.

"Brother Cheng, this wine is very wonderful. It seems to have the effect of increasing qi and blood. I wonder what it is made from?"

Zhou Yang had a deeper understanding of qi and blood than Mo Chenglong and Shen Tugang. After drinking, he felt the qi and blood in his body churning. After calming down, he felt that the qi and blood seemed to be a little stronger.

If he hadn't practiced the Earth Fire Body Tempering Technique, he really wouldn't have been able to feel it. Moreover, he had always been a wine drinker and had done some research on the quality of wine.

Cheng Shijie had a look of surprise on his face. When he first drank the wine, he only felt comfortable all over his body. He didn't realize that it had any effect on increasing qi and blood. It was only after the person who delivered the wine told him about it that he realized the effect of the wine.

He is a cultivator at the peak of Lingtai, but his perception is not as sensitive as that of a cultivator who has just broken through to the late stage of Lingtai. This boy is indeed extraordinary.

"Brother Zhou has carefully observed and admired me. This wine is called Huanglin. Huanglin fruit and several elixirs are added to the wine. It is a new creation of our famous brewmaster in Tuyan City. Drinking it for a long time can indeed increase Qi and blood.

However, Tu Yan does not produce Huanglin Fruit. This fruit was brought back from Anping City and is rarely seen on weekdays. If it weren’t for the old relationship between Master and me, I would never have such a good reputation." Cheng Shijie said.

"Huanglin fruit!" Zhou Yang's heart moved when he heard the words. He was no stranger to this fruit, also known as the bitter fruit that brings sweetness. When he first tasted this fruit, he even spit it out as a bitter fruit.

It turns out that Huang Linguo has such effects, it’s really amazing!

"Brother Zhou, do you still have some insights?" Seeing Zhou Yang thinking, Cheng Shijie asked again.

"No, I just heard about Huanglin Fruit. This fruit is only found in the area under the jurisdiction of Xuanfu Sect. It is indeed a wonderful spiritual fruit."

"Haha, Brother Zhou is still well-informed. Yes, this master has a close friendship with Elder Jin, the protector of the Xuanfu Sect, and this fruit was given by Elder Jin."

"That's it. It seems that we are in a good mood today. May I ask what the master's honorific title is?" Zhou Yang asked with a smile.

When he talked about the Xuanfu Sect, he felt something strange in his heart. This elder Jin was the current guardian elder Jin Zhaoxi, and he was also the former punishment elder of the Xuanfu Sect. But who could be the person who has an old acquaintance with him?

Zhou Yang also became interested in this topic.

"The master's surname is Gong, he is known as Qingsheng and also known as Zhuoxian."

"It turns out to be Master Gong. I wonder what the relationship between Master Gong and Tu Yan's Gong family is?"

"Master Gong is a member of the Gong family, but he traveled abroad for a long time and rarely returned to his hometown. When he was young, the master was addicted to wine. Later, he became immersed in the art and specialized in wine, so he was called Qingsheng and Zhuoxian."

"A good drinker must be a lover of nature and love!" Shen Tu just put down his wine glass and said.

"What Brother Shentu said is true. Master Gong has a forthright nature. He treats his friends as relatives and likes to make friends with knights. He often discusses Taoism over wine. He is a person I respect throughout my life." Cheng Shijie nodded.

"No wonder I haven't heard of this person's name. He has been traveling abroad. However, I have a very good personal relationship with Jin Zhaoxi, so I'd better not contact him easily, lest I let him know, which would be unsightly." Zhou Yang thought to himself after hearing this.

He originally wanted to make acquaintance with Master Gong, but his friendship with Jin Zhaoxi was not very good, so it was better to cause less trouble. However, it would be good to hear more about the master's deeds from Cheng Shijie, and it would be best to learn about the current situation of Xuanfu Sect.

"Brother Mo should know something about Xuan Fu Sect. This Huang Linguo has such wonderful functions. Have you ever heard of it?" Zhou Yang glanced at Mo Chenglong and said.

Mo Chenglong was stunned for a moment, but he immediately reacted and said: "I know a little bit about it. Although there is no one for sale on the market, Xuanfu Sect disciples will inevitably bring some. However, this fruit is in the wasteland north of Anping City, and ordinary people cannot go there.

Yes. Of course, Elder Jin has a high position and authority, so there will be no problem."

There is some content in the first half of what he said, but the second half is pure nonsense. Why can't the elders of the Xuanfu Sect make a small Huang Linguo?

However, this successfully brought up the topic of Xuanfu Sect and Elder Jin.

Mo Chenglong is also a shrewd person. He heard the elegant music and immediately understood what Zhou Yang was thinking. Of course, he was also aware of the grudges between Zhou Yang and the Xuanfu Sect.

"Huanglin fruit only matures once in autumn, and it has already expired. However, I heard from the master that Elder Jin often goes out and passes by the place where Huanglin fruit trees grow many times, so he collected some and specially brought them to the master to taste." Cheng Shijie said, stroking the fan.

.

"You often pass by the place where Huanglin fruit trees grow?" Zhou Yang's mind raced.

He knew that the yellow forest fruit trees were located three to four hundred miles north of Anping City, and further north led to the dense forest where he fled. The northern part of the dense forest was the Wild Wind Forest, and the Xuanfu Sect's new mineral veins were deep in the forest.

When Jin Zhaoxi passed by that area, he was definitely not going to pick yellow forest fruits, nor was he going to the dense forest. Besides, he was not an elder who taught the practice, so he could not care about the training of his disciples.

Then there is only one destination left, which is the new mineral vein! Could it be that Jin Zhaoxi is in charge of the new mineral vein?

After only hearing about the fruit trees in Huanglin, Zhou Yang thought about the new mineral veins and the whereabouts of Jin Zhaoxi. It must be said that Zhou Yang's reaction was very quick.

Jin Zhaoxi had been in charge of Xuanfu Sect's punishment matters for a long time, and his strength was not very strong among the elders. Moreover, he surrendered later, so Zhou Yuanzheng's trust in him should not be too high.

Under such circumstances, it is impossible for him to be in charge of such an important new industry alone. There must be other elders, or even more than one.

"Before, the two factions needed more than 30,000 mining slaves, but later I heard that the number had more than doubled. As a result, the number of disciples sent to garrison must be at least tens of thousands, and they must be elites. In addition to the

The power to go to Chiyan Island is definitely lacking within both factions.

If a fight really breaks out, the mountain gate of the two factions will become the weakest point. It is impossible for Tongzhou Commercial Bank not to know about this matter. By then, hehe, there will be excitement." After Zhou Yang analyzed it, he secretly gloated about the misfortune and laughed.

"Oh, I heard that Xuanfu Sect and Sansheng Sect jointly developed a vein of refined copper, which is a huge wealth. In a few years, the strength of the two sects will greatly increase." Mo Chenglong continued on this topic.

"My little brother has heard about it, but our sect has very little contact with the Xuanfu Sect. We only buy some spiritual talismans every year. What I heard is only a few words. I only know that Elder Jin is in charge of the Xuanfu Sect in the new mine, and the Three Saints Sect is in charge.

Elder Lu is in charge, so I don’t know how far the mining goes."

What Cheng Shijie said is true. Until recently, the Ziyuan Sect only had a close relationship with Tongzhou Trading Company in Anping City and had little contact with other sects.

What Cheng Shijie knew was that he was the direct disciple of the sect leader. If it were other disciples in the sect, he would probably know even less.

This new mineral vein has become the most important point for Xuanfu Sect and Sansheng Sect, even more important than the Lingshi Mine in Cangshou Mountain, and is related to the revitalization of the two sects.

The last thing Anping City wants to see is Tongzhou Trading Company. When the time comes, the balance will be broken.

Tongzhou Commercial Bank was the first to station in Tuyan City, and they also took a fancy to Ziyuan Sect's refined iron mines. Although they were not comparable to the refined copper mines of the two sects, no matter how small the monsters were, they still had meat.

"As expected." Zhou Yang nodded secretly. But at least Cheng Shijie knew that this information was not very useful.

"By the way, Brother Cheng, what affairs is Master Zhong in charge of within the sect now?" Zhou Yang wanted to know what happened after Uncle Zhong returned to the sect.

"Humph, the Presbyterian Church is just a group of people who are unjust and unjust. Previously, Elder Zhong was in charge of Duzhi and foreign affairs, and made great achievements in restoring the sect. But in the end, all the birds were gone, and the mines were snatched by Wang Qinggong, and Duzhi

It is under the control of the Gong Dynasty, and now only the position of foreign affairs is left. However, the sect does not have much external affairs, and Elder Zhong is currently idle."

Cheng Shijie was sharp-tongued and unscrupulous, he cursed the Presbyterian Church, complained about Zhong Pengfei, and much less.

"If you don't tell me, Cheng has forgotten something important. Brother Zhou, Elder Zhong was out on business with you. Why did he lose an arm? You were unscathed. Why? How did you protect him?"

Cheng Shijie remembered Zhong Pengfei's broken arm and immediately questioned Zhou Yang.

Zhou Yang was speechless when asked, and was speechless for a moment. He was so embarrassed.

Deacon Cheng was really merciless when he spoke. You asked him why he had his arm broken, but he was extremely dissatisfied with Zhou Yang's inability to protect him.
