Volume Four, Volume 31, Chapter 3, Arrival in Youzhou
This is a deserted island with an area of about ten square kilometers. It is located in the southeastern sea of Taixia Qiongzhou. This area can be regarded as the offshore area of the Eastern Continent. The distance from here to the land is only more than 1,000 kilometers.
Qiongzhou is located in the east of Taixia and is one of the many central states in Taixia. In Taixia, Qiongzhou is also known as the State of Ten Thousand Islands. The entire outer sea of Qiongzhou has tens of thousands of islands and reefs of various sizes.
Compared to the islands off the coast of Qiongzhou, the size of the islands in the Evandala Islands is completely dwarfed by the size of a sesame seed or a watermelon.
If you look at it from a map, the entire islands and reefs off the coast of Qiongzhou are completely like a small subcontinent that has been completely broken up and then scattered like fragments across this vast sea area. This sea area,
It's called Qionghai. In order to hunt down the poisonous wolf Zhu Liang, Li Butian and Yang Zhigang have been chasing each other on these deserted islands in Qionghai like playing hide and seek for more than two months.
Continuing north from Qiongzhou, after passing through Mozhou and Gaozhou, you will reach the boundary of Youzhou.
Mozhou is a Zhongzhou at the same level as Qiongzhou, and Gaozhou is already a lower state. Needless to say, Youzhou further north is also a lower state.
Knowing that his general direction was correct, Zhang Tie breathed a sigh of relief. Although there are two states separated from here to Youzhou, the distance by water is only more than 17,000 kilometers. This distance is not suitable for Zhang Tie.
Said, it's not far away.
That night, Zhang Tie chatted with Li Butian and Yang Zhigang all night on the island. The three of them had a very interesting chat. From the mouths of Li Butian and Yang Zhigang, Zhang Tie learned a lot about Taixia, and from Zhang Tie's mouth, that
The exotic customs of the Hawaiian subcontinent also fascinated the two of them.
We chatted for most of the night, until just before dawn the next day, the three of them each took a short nap and became energetic again.
When the sun came up the next day, Poison Wolf Zhu Liang's head was chopped off by Yang Zhigang, protected with medicine, and then wrapped in a waterproof oilcloth bag. Li Butian was in an open area outside the cave.
He took out a cloud-penetrating arrow he had on him and placed it in the sky.
After a loud explosion, the cloud-piercing arrow flew high into the sky and exploded more than 300 meters in the air over the island. The red smoke formed a smoke-shaped pattern of a red sword. It lingered for a long time.
In order to hunt down the poisonous wolf Zhu Liang, Li Butian and Yang Zhigang also hired a small airship to be at the disposal of the two men at any time. The small airship was also wandering in the nearby airspace. When it saw the signal sent by the two men, it would not take long to catch up.
Come.
Sure enough, less than half an hour after the cloud-piercing arrow was sent out, a small airship appeared in the distant sky and flew towards here.
"Brother Zhang Tie, do you really not want to come with us? When you get to Qionghai City, you can take a train from Qionghai City to Youzhou, and it won't take many days?" After Li Butian released the cloud-piercing arrow, he turned to the opposite station.
Zhang Tie said as he watched the two people working at the entrance of the cave.
Li Butian and Yang Zhigang were going to Qionghai City in Qiongzhou, the nearest city, to collect the bounty, while Zhang Tie was going to continue north to reunite with his family in Youzhou. The three met by chance and were about to separate in the blink of an eye.
"No, I have been practicing abroad during this period. I have some insights into cultivation. There are many islands in Qionghai. The environment is good and relatively clean. I want to gain insights and practice here for a few more days before I find time to go back!" Zhang Tie said naturally.
Told a white lie.
At this moment, Zhang Tie was ready to return home, but he had to reject the suggestions of Li Butian and Yang Zhigang, because if he really walked from the shore, it would take longer, and if he told them that he planned to leave from here "
If they "swim" to Youzhou, I'm afraid they will be scared again. In this era, even a black iron knight who is proficient in water skills can be considered top-notch if he can travel two to three thousand kilometers in the water at a time, and someone like Zhang
He is almost unique in treating the sea as a highway and highway.
Until now, Li Butian and Yang Zhigang had imagined that Zhang Tie's experience of "wandering" at sea was Zhang Tie driving a boat or sailing boat across the ocean alone. Such a "feat" has become a reality.
The two people admired Zhang Tie very much. If they knew that Zhang Tie's "wandering" was really a person "swimming" from another subcontinent in the unpredictable sea, the two people said
Maybe everyone will be frightened silly by Zhang Tie.
In order to avoid shocking the world and not wanting to expose his trump cards and abilities, Zhang Tie had no choice but to make up a reason to continue "wandering" in Qionghai.
"It is a rare opportunity to have some insights about cultivation. The environment in this sea area is indeed quiet. If there are no outsiders to disturb you, this insight may be the first opportunity for enlightenment, which is extremely important for every cultivator.
Gold is hard to find. Since brother Zhang Tie wants to continue his enlightenment here, we brothers will not bother us. Among the bounty Xing arrests in Yongzhou, my long eyebrow Li Butian and my brother Kuai Jian Yang Zhigang are also somewhat famous. Zhang
If Brother Tie can be of use to our brothers in the future, all he has to do is go to Zhengdao Tower in Youzhou and deliver a message to us, and our brothers will definitely be there!"
The so-called Zhengdao Building, in Zhang Tie's understanding, is the guild and industry organization equivalent to the Taixia Bounty Xingmao. It is responsible for the certification management of the Bounty Xingmao, as well as issuing tasks and delivering them among the Bounty Xingmao
Various news and information, this is a semi-official organization, behind this organization is the Tingwei Mansion in Taixia. In Taixia, as long as it is a city of a certain size, there is basically a Zhengdao Tower.
Zhang Tie did not ask for the 50,000 gold coins from Zhu Liang, which made Li Butian and Yang Zhigang secretly grateful to him. At the same time, the one-night exchange also made the two of them feel that Zhang Tie was a worthy friend, so they said this when they parted.
A few words.
"If the two eldest brothers encounter any difficulties in the future and want my help, just ask Jinpeng Bank to send a message!" Zhang Tie also solemnly clasped his fists to Li Butian and said. The so-called repaying a favor with a favor is a good thing for Li Butian.
Zhang Tie treats a sincere person like Yang Zhigang sincerely.
Li Butian and Yang Zhigang both had smiles on their faces...
…
More than ten minutes later, after confirming the identities of Li Butian and Yang Zhigang below, the small airship that flew to the desert island dropped a rope ladder from the airship. Li Butian and Yang Zhigang quickly boarded the airship from the rope ladder.
He waved to Zhang Tie, and then the small airship flew towards the mainland.
Zhang Tie had been watching the airship disappear from his sight at the beach, then rubbed his face and withdrew his gaze.
Thinking of the news that Li Butian and Yang Zhigang told him about his master's demon refining last night, Zhang Tie could only smile bitterly.
The master and his wife were about to fight, and Zhang Tie didn't know who to help.
According to Li Butian and Yang Zhigang, the battle where their master massacred Mojiang City in Songzhou was earth-shattering and heart-breaking at the same time. Because in addition to the few knights who died, the civilians in Mojiang City who died at the hands of their master also
There were more than 170,000 people, and the eleven generations of the Han family in Mojiang City, Songzhou, totaled more than 20,000 people. Zhao Yuan even killed them all without leaving a trace.
In Zhang Tie's impression, although Zhao Yuan acted erratically and went his own way, he did not look like a cold-blooded and murderous person, let alone one who would attack tens of thousands of ordinary people. I remember that when he was on Qianlong Island, Zhao Yuan was killed by a mistake.
When he entered their mansion, he was almost beaten up by several servants in the street. At that time, Zhao Yuan did not want to do anything to those people. Those people later lived well. How could such a person endure it?
How about attacking more than 100,000 innocent people?
What exactly happened in Mojiang City, Songzhou? I am afraid that the answer to this question can only be found by myself slowly. And if his identity as a demon refining disciple is exposed, and Zhang Tie knows, then he will probably have to wait for Tai
Xia was hunted down by those super sects. In the eyes of those super sects, what was a Huaiyuantang that even Li Butian and Yang Zhigang had never heard of?
Forget it, why are you thinking about these useless things? Go home first!
Thinking of his parents, whom he had not seen for many years, and his three sons, whom he had never seen before, Zhang Tie's heart became hot.
A wave of waves came, and Zhang Tie had disappeared by the seaside...
…
In the sea, Zhang Tie's speed accelerated to nearly 650 meters per second in just a few seconds. This speed was another hundred percent higher than the speed Zhang Tie traveled to the ice and snow wasteland for the second time by sea.
About ten out of ten.
Every moment, countless tiny bubbles, even invisible to the naked eye, began to adhere to Zhang Tie's body's protective fighting energy and generate underwater. Then they burst, and the powerful cavitation effect began to appear.
Waves, jets, high heat and corrosion began to pound and impact Zhang Tie's body and protective fighting spirit...
As Zhang Tie moved forward, he carefully savored the formation, birth and death of every tiny bubble under the water...
Under Zhang Tie's powerful knight consciousness, the tiny bubbles that were generated and destroyed in his body instantly brought Zhang Tie into a strange world, in which everything existed in destruction.
All are calculated in milliseconds...
…
Seven hours later, Zhang Tie soared from the sea into the sky and flew into the sky in the blink of an eye...
"Ah, I just saw something flying out of the sea and into the sky..." It was afternoon, and the sun had just begun to turn west. On the sparkling sea, on a giant ship that was moving,
A young sailor who was arranging the steel rope on the deck looked up and suddenly shouted.
"Gangzi, you haven't had sex with a woman for just a few days, and you're already dazzled?" The other sailors on the deck looked up and found that they didn't see anything, so they started teasing each other.
"No, I just saw something flying out of the sea in front of me and splashing water. The speed of that thing was so fast that it reached the sky in a swish and was out of sight all of a sudden..."
"Just like the last time you took a look at that Xibo girl in Fuzhou Port, she was gone in a flash!" Several other sailors winked and then laughed...
The young sailor's face turned red with embarrassment.
"Okay, stop joking. We are arriving in Youzhou soon. Please cheer up. After arriving in Youzhou this time, after delivering the Fuxi Type 1 differential engine on board, everyone can have a good rest for a few days and do some work.
Thanks to this deal, by the end of this year, the family's year-end red envelope will be at least one-third thicker than last year!" A bearded steward walked out of the cabin and said to the sailors. This
The giant ship and the sailors on the ship were all members of a family business group. When the task was about to be completed, the steward revealed some information in his words.
"Manager Liu, Youzhou is just a lower state. Which business group has such a big appetite that they actually want to order a big Fuxi 1 model. This big guy has more than 200,000 computing gears, which is even more powerful than the Xuanyuan 7 model.
, is there a business group in Youzhou that can bring out the abilities of this big guy?" asked a shrewd sailor.
"This is what the Golden Crow Business Group ordered!"
"I've never heard of the Golden Crow Merchant Group. It doesn't seem to be famous. I've only heard of the Changfeng Merchant Group in Youzhou." The sailor said doubtfully.
"Those two business groups are closely related, they are both from the same family!" The steward smiled, "Do you know about the full potion?"
"Know!"
"Let's send this big guy and debug it. When we come back, we will be able to transport 100,000 full-effect potions. This deal was made by the big shopkeeper himself. We can't screw it up..."
The sailors on the deck were all shocked...
…
Zhang Tiefei was in the sky. Although he did not show the brilliance of a knight's fighting spirit, his speed was also very frightening.
Not long after, Zhang Tie saw a city and a prosperous port appearing on the seaside. The port was in the arms of two mountains and had a unique location advantage. He just looked at the port surrounded and from the land.
With the mountains extending into the sea, like two sharp claws of a tiger plunging into the sea, Zhang Tie knew that his destination had finally arrived.
The large port operated by Huaiyuantang, which bought nearly one million square kilometers of land in the southeast of Youzhou, is called Baohu Port, and the mountain is also called Baohu Mountain. As a family elder, Zhang Tie once worked in Huaiyuan County.
I've seen photos of this place before.
The city behind Baohu Port is called Baohu City, which is where Huaiyuantang reestablished its foundation in Youzhou.
At this moment, the eight tribes of Huaiyuantang have built a total of eight cities on a million square kilometers of land in the southeast of Youzhou. These eight cities are connected together and have become a county of their own, named Yanghe County.
According to Chinese tradition, this Yanghe County has become the county seat of the entire Huaiyuantang, and it is also the foundation of the Zhang family of Huaiyuantang. According to the strict standards of Taixia, Huaiyuantang used to be in the Weiyi subcontinent.
The land controlled by the family cannot be regarded as a family commandery. The commandery of a Chinese family can only be in Taixia in the Eastern Continent, not in those foreign lands.
In Taixia, the so-called sons of rich and aristocratic families are called the county prince when they speak, and their court title is when they close their mouths. The county prince's title reveals the foundation of a person and a family.
From now on, all the Zhang clan members who left Huaiyuan Hall in Taixia can claim to be of the Yanghe Zhang clan.
Since his family did not live in Baohu City, Zhang Tie did not stay here for long. Instead, he glanced at the sky and continued flying towards the northwest of Baohu City...

Congratulations to Du Liu Xiaoyu for becoming the leader of the Black Iron Castle, overcoming obstacles and finally achieving hegemony! (To be continued)
