Except for some agitation inside, for most people in Annan County, it is still peaceful and leisurely.
In the county town, in the early morning, the cries of vendors on the East Street broke the silence of the night, announcing that a new lively day was about to begin.
Little Luopu's father is still working at the stall. In fact, his task is heavier than before because there is no Little Luopu to help him look after the stall. But compared to his son being spotted by the big shots in the inner city and having a big future,
This little trouble has long been forgotten in his heart, and he is really happy with it.
Therefore, after several years passed without any physical recuperation, he looked several years younger than before.
A group of hunters who often go to Dongshan for hunting and gathering bring their harvest in large and small bags to North Street adjacent to East Street. Because it is only February, the hunting harvest is not as good as during the golden period from April to August.
, but in recent years, the purchase of medicinal herbs by pharmacists in the city has increased significantly.
Both quantity and variety are several times that of before, and the price is slightly higher than before.
Therefore, they also adjusted the ratio of hunting and gathering and put more energy into collecting medicinal herbs.
After a few years, the lives of low-level practitioners like them have generally become much better, and a few of them have been accepted into the Medicine Hall, which is really a great thing.
Those who had gathered in the Juxing Tower before felt slightly uncomfortable. The Juxing Tower had been closed for some reason and was no longer open to the public.
At first, they thought they would only be locked up for a few days or even a month or two at most, but they didn’t expect that several years had passed and the Juxing Building was still closed. Some people who were close to them inquired, but all they heard was, "
We don’t know about this either, so let me tell you, don’t count on this anymore, just find another place to play!”
Yes, this gathering place, which used to gather a lot of people from all walks of life, gradually faded out of their lives, so they had no choice but to disperse.
Everyone goes back to his own home and looks for his own mother.
There are no more various story books to read, no more wonderful interpretations of story books, no more gatherings to talk about the truth, no more...
Many, many.
All of that has become a thing of the past with the closure of Juxing Tower.
There are many things that have not disappeared, but have begun to move, or have begun to arise in other places, but they are definitely not on a large scale, and they are far from comparable to the situation at the Star Juxing Tower.
"The Sihaimen is getting more and more confused. The Juxing Tower is closed? Let me tell you, it's better to just disband the Sihaimen."
"I guess Sihaimen is being suppressed and beaten by the Baji Sect. Otherwise, how could the Juxing Tower be shut down properly?"
Various opinions.
Regarding such comments from outside, many people in Sihaimen and Baji Sect feel the same way.
Stupid x.
They really don't know why the Juxing Tower was closed. This is something that many people can't figure out or understand, especially Sihaimen. Many younger generations have asked or even made trouble with their elders, and then without exception,
They were all slapped back.
However, both children know that there is indeed no conflict between them.
There were some conflicts, big and small, in the past, but now, no matter what the superiors or the elders have explained, any conflicts are not allowed to be resolved by force.
But to negotiate.
Negotiate!
How to negotiate?
There are many ways, such as sitting down for a drinking contest, whoever drinks more drinks wins, etc.
In short, no hitting is allowed.
If you really want to fight, fine, the two families have opened a new martial arts competition platform, Ning Qi vs. Ning Qi, Tongmai vs. Tongmai, first floor vs. first floor, second floor vs. second floor, among many juniors, peers, elders and sects.
Under the watchful eye of high-level officials, anyone who wants to fight can sign up and fight happily.
You can play ten games a day!
There are many people in the two families. Some people get angry when they fight, and some people become friendly when they fight.
In short, it doesn't look like the two families are going to fight.
On the contrary, a merger would be more credible.
Of course, no one within the two companies really believes that they will merge. How is it possible? If I get angry, I can smash their brains. Merge? Absolutely!
Basically, other than these, there are no other changes in the county.
Everything is the same as always.
The breeze blows slowly and the water waves are calm.
If the entire Annan County is compared to a big tree, no matter how important it is, just speaking from the height.
The scattered small towns below the county seat can be regarded as the roots of this tree, which have always been under the ground.
At least people in the county generally cannot see them. Even ordinary people living in the county will often react casually when they mention those cities, and occasionally they will be a little instinctively condescending, "
Oh, you're talking about the city down there, what's its name? You know, we don't care about that side either."
Ordinary people in these counties and cities are regarded as the bottom of the big tree.
In addition to ordinary people who are practitioners, the number of casual practitioners and low-level practitioners is actually quite large. Even this number is difficult to count because there are too many people who know three moves and two moves.
Even if you are from an ordinary person's background, you can't stand up to others who often put up fights and practice boxing.
"Even if we are not a cultivator, at least we can be considered half, right?"
These people, together with the authentic practitioners of the Qi Condensation Realm, the Meridian Opening Realm and the Acupoint Opening Realm, form the main body of the county's "cultivation world" and are also the middle and upper part of the big tree in Annan County.
In fact, in the past few years, the turmoil in the county and the city, and the turmoil hidden behind it, have nothing to do with this subject, and basically it can be said to be completely irrelevant.
Therefore, it is what is behind and what is under the water.
Only when you break through the realm of enlightenment and come to the realm of entraining energy, and go from the human level to the earth level, can you truly stand on the stage and know what has happened in the county in the past few years, and also know what the general direction of the future of the county will be.
Walk.
In short, "the pattern that has remained unchanged for thousands of years has begun to shift in recent years."
However, the stage in Annan County is only the stage in Annan County.
The world is so big that there is far more than just one Annan County.
The level and height of the cultivation world are far from being capped at the Earth Level Qi Entrainment Realm.
It is still a county town, and in places unknown to the bosses of these county towns, some key changes are slowly but surely taking place.
Lanshui Sect.
No one knows that this sect that caused a sensation not long ago, what is really hidden under the deep water, or more accurately under the seabed, is by no means as simple as the word "sensational"
.
If that secret were to be exposed, it would cause far more than a sensation, far more than a tsunami, far more than just earthquakes and shaking of the mountains, it would actually cause the earth to collapse.
But when a secret remains a secret, everything is calm and relaxed.
Under the constant guidance of a few-year-old girl, Nan Pingxiu, the former master of the Lanshui Sect, steadily advanced in his practice. He had already surpassed the realm of refining and entered the realm of rejuvenation.
Shi Shao, the current leader of Lanshui Sect, also received indirect guidance from the little girl, and her practice was also progressing steadily, but her progress was not as fast as Nanpingxiu. The reasons for this were, firstly, that her foundation was not as stable as Nanpingxiu's, and secondly,
His qualifications were not as good as those of Nan Ping Xiu, especially the latter, which left all the cultivators speechless.
Not to mention, she also takes on the responsibility of Lanshui Sect and has to deal with many internal and external affairs of the sect.
However, Shi Shao, who has entered the realm of refining, must have nothing else to seek for at least the next one or two hundred years, but only wants stability in this world and peace in the years.
Yaowang Valley.
Gan Congshi has officially separated from the Yakushi Hall. He even banned relevant people in the family and the Yakushi Hall from visiting him in the name of retreat, and only conveyed one sentence:
"If it's not a matter of life or death, don't disturb me!"
Dongzheng Street.
In that house, which is basically the same as other big houses on this street, there is a man who is generally considered to be in the enlightenment state. His true cultivation level has long been "unspeakable", and under an even more unspeakable and incredible mysterious environment,
, his physical and mental consciousness is undergoing real "rapid changes".
A certain retreat in Dongshan can also be said to be the "No. 1" spiritual place that does not require any identification.
Xu Yishan has stopped formal practice.
Every day, he just looks at flowers and birds, sleeps, and takes a bath.
He even made a hammock on a big tree, then stretched out his legs and lay down on the bed, and often lay there for most of the day, or even several days.
People who didn't know it looked at it and thought there was a dying paralytic lying there.
From February to March and April, then May and June.
The rainy season in Annan has also arrived as scheduled.
On June 2, Xu Yishan, Nan Pingxiu, Gan Congshi, and Xu Tonghui gathered at the governor's mansion.
"I've said goodbye today, and I don't know when I will be able to come back here again." Xu Yishan said with a slight sigh.
Then, amidst the patter of rain, the four of them rode in a pack car and left the county town, driven by Xue Shouyi, the chief steward of the county governor's mansion.
