After watching Li Dong'er leave and disappearing, Hou Jiuming looked away, and then threw the jade token in his hand to the ground without any hesitation.
Although he has only entered the world of cultivation not long ago, he is not stupid enough to ask for something deliberately given by others.
Even Li Gu refused to use the Yishen Fan he accidentally obtained, let alone this jade token.
Does anyone know if there are any positioning marks on it?
To be honest, if it weren't for the power of the greedy god fan, he really wouldn't want it.
Next, Hou Jiuming searched around again, trying to find and fill in the gaps, but he didn't expect to find six flags.
These flags were hidden in the canopy of trees, and if he hadn't been so sensitive, he would have missed them.
"Are these the formation flags?"
It is about the size of a palm, the whole body is green, the flagpole is like jade, and the flag is made of fine upward silk, which is smooth and soft to the touch.
These flags were not broken like jade, but intact.
"It's not empty-handed."
Putting away the flag, Hou Jiuming left the place directly.
We were careful all the way, changing directions countless times before returning to Solid Rock City.
What surprised him was that Solid Rock City had changed drastically.
At this time, the city gate was guarded by rows of soldiers wearing armor.
But it is different from the uniforms of the soldiers of Shake Yue Kingdom.
The clothes of these soldiers are all black, with water patterns embroidered on their collars.
They guarded the city and strictly checked all people coming and going.
"Could it be that Qianyu Kingdom has occupied the city?"
With such doubts, Hou Jiuming did not enter the city immediately, but sneaked in through a less well-defended section of the city wall.
Entering Solid Stone City, I found that there were very few pedestrians in the city. Even if there were any, they were in a hurry and did not dare to stay too much. Most of the shops in the city were closed.
From time to time, you can see groups of well-equipped soldiers patrolling.
Dodge the patrolling soldiers all the way and return to Sihai Tea House.
I found that the teahouse had also closed.
Seeing this, Hou Jiuming thought for a while and went straight to where Zhuzi lived.
After a cup of tea, Hou Jiuming saw Zhuzi in a simple courtyard.
"Shopkeeper, within two days of your departure, the Qianyu Kingdom's army captured Solid Rock City.
However, the soldiers of Qianyu Country are not like the refugee army some time ago, and they do not attack ordinary people.
After taking control of the city, they directly plundered the city in the name of collecting grain and grass.
We at Sihai Teahouse had to pay one hundred taels of silver to pass the test..." Zhuzi recounted in detail what had happened during his absence.
After listening, Hou Jiuming fell into deep thought.
Seeing him thinking, Zhuzi stood aside obediently and waited, not daring to disturb him at all.
After the tea time passed, Hou Jiuming looked at Zhuzi.
"I'm ready to leave the Yue Kingdom!"
"Ah, the shopkeeper is going there, let's pack up our things right now." Zhuzi was a little surprised at first, then came back to his senses and asked quickly. He was able to be where he is today thanks to Hou Jiuming's support.
Not only did he give him a job, he also taught him martial arts.
Such kindness can never be fully repaid in a lifetime.
Therefore, he had already decided that he would stay by the shopkeeper's side for the rest of his life, and he would repay this kindness even if he worked as a cow or a horse.
Seeing Zhu Zhu say this, Hou Jiu Ming nodded secretly in his heart. Finally, the training was not in vain. However, thinking about the place he was about to go in the future, Zhu Zhu would not be able to help him, so he said.
"No, it's not appropriate for you to go where I want to go. From now on, the Sihai Tea House will be left to you!" After saying this, he took out the tea house's title deed and the tea making method from the storage bag.
He handed it to Zhu Zhu and said.
"Run the Sihai Tea House well from now on!"
"It's from the shopkeeper..." Looking at the things handed to him, Zhu Zhu couldn't accept them or not. For a moment, he didn't know what to do.
"Take it. After I leave, you can find a reliable woman to live a good life. With your martial arts skills, you won't be bullied in the future."
"Shopkeeper, I still want to follow you!"
"Okay, stop talking, I've made up my mind!"
Seeing Hou Jiuming's determination, although Zhu Zi was reluctant to give up, he had to obey and took the land deed and tea formula.
"Don't worry, shopkeeper, I will run the Sihai Tea House well for you. No matter when you come back, the tea house will be yours!" Zhu Zhu said solemnly.
Hou Jiuming raised his hand and patted Zhu Zhu on the shoulder, then turned around and left resolutely.
This place is no longer suitable for cultivation.
Since the Wuling Pill expired, so much time has passed, and the improvement in cultivation has been slow.
At this rate, it would take at least four to five years to break through to the seventh level of Qi Refining.
There are several four or five years in life.
If the realm continues like this in the future, how can we pursue the path to immortality?
He also wanted to stay in one place and practice until he was immortal, but the world was changing and he couldn't tolerate being so slack.
Therefore, going to the gathering place for immortal cultivators or joining a sect is the next necessary journey.
…………
Wushan West Town is located in the northeast corner of Hanyue Kingdom, close to the Luoyue Mountains and close to Qianyu Kingdom.
This place can be regarded as the border between the two countries, but unlike Solid Rock City, people come and go here, and there is no atmosphere of war at all.
"Is this Wushanfang City?"
After half a month of traveling, Hou Jiuming finally arrived at Wushan Town, where Wang Jinzhen said Wangjiafang City is located.
Looking at this small town with people coming and going, I found that there were no monks everywhere as I thought.
"So close to Fangshi, why don't you see a monk?"
Naturally, the town is not Wushan Fangshi, it is just a mortal town close to Fangshi.
It can be regarded as a dedicated service for the city.
Hou Jiuming thought, how could there be monks in a town so close to Fang City, but now he didn't see any of them, which is really puzzling.
He couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think much about it and walked into the bustling town.
As soon as I entered, I noticed that this small town was different from other small towns.
Here, everyone you meet is neatly dressed and looking in good spirits.
Unlike the ordinary people I met in the past, even in a city like Solid Rock City, I would occasionally meet a few cheerful people.
In addition, the sanitation in the town is also very clean. Not only can there be no garbage along the road, but there is also no night fragrance like other towns.
If you just suspected that you went to the wrong place.
Now he is very sure that this must be the outskirts of Wushanfang City.
The reason why this town is so clean is because of the Wang family's deliberate efforts.
After all, immortal cultivators often pass by, and if the town is too chaotic, it will give people a bad impression.
Hesitating and looking forward to Wushanfang City all the way.
Therefore, Hou Jiuming did not stay in the town for too long. He just took a quick look at it, then walked out of the town and headed towards the Wushan Mountain.
Wushan, as its name suggests, is shrouded in thick fog all year round. This chapter has been completed!
