Chapter 672 Shangqiu

Shangqiu, Zhongtu, was the ancestral land of the Shang people. It was the fief that the ancestor of the Shang people and the son of Emperor Ku helped King Dayu control the flood and obtained due to his merits.

Since then, the merchants lived in Shangqiu, using the black bird as the totem.

"The power of wishes gathers, totems protect it, popularity surges, and vitality. What a paradise for humanity."

Yuchen looked over Shangqiu, and in a place where ordinary people could not see, there were golden auspicious clouds formed by light golden wishes. Among them, there was a black color, like a flying swallow, a raw cockscomb, slender feathers, embellished with colorful light. From a distance, some peacock-like divine birds poked their heads out of it and stared at themselves.

This divine bird is the merchant's totem Xuanbird. Because of its huge sacrifice, it condensed its divinity and spirituality. After detecting Yu Chen's breath, it stared at Yu Chen from afar and prevented him from getting close.

Yuchen didn't care about this. This time he came here to take advantage of his clear relationship and go to Shangqiu to take a look, rather than to find fault.

Of course, I will not anger the totems guarding Shangqiu.

After a while, Tongming fell with a precious light. When he saw Yu Chen, he smiled and said, "I didn't expect that you were really here. I thought the person who informed me made a mistake."

When Yu Chen heard this, he looked at Tongming in surprise and asked, "How do you say this?"

When Tongming heard this, he said angrily: "You have achieved the state of immortality and didn't even think about asking me to celebrate together. Don't I think you are alienated from me?"

Yu Chen waved his hand and said, "If you don't enter the Dao Realm, you are just a bigger ant in this world. What's there to celebrate? Besides, you are in the Middle Earth and I am in the East China Sea. I don't know how much time it takes to go back and forth, and it's not an important thing, so why bother?"

"Why? Tell me the truth, what exactly did you come to Middle-earth this time? I don't believe you came to Middle-earth for me."

Yuchen smiled and said, "Although it's not for you, you are indeed one of the reasons."

"Oh?" Tongming narrowed his eyes slightly and covered up the flash of scheming.

As a descendant of the Shang clan, he awakened the brightness of the Xuanniao bloodline and traced the source of the bloodline, and naturally he was considered a royal family, but he had few names since his generation.

Therefore, when I returned to Shangqiu, I didn’t have a very good life.

For the elders of the Shang clan, Tongming is just a side branch to gain power and is an object to be afraid of; for the princes of Shangjun, Tongming is an optional object to fight for; for the Shangjun, the leader of Shangqiu, he would not touch Tongming of the great power of sacrifice, and was a good tool person.

Therefore, over the years, although Tongming has quickly completed the transformation of Yin Shenyang with the help of bloodlines and tribes and reached the threshold of the prototype of the Taoist fruit, he did not have enough time to accumulate and integrate his own income and make his cultivation go further.

This is also one of the reasons why he rushed over when he heard that Yuchen was looking for him.

Tongming needs an external variable to buy him some time.

"I was so honored to be one of the reasons. I wonder if I was lucky enough to know the reason?"

Hearing Tongming's question, Yu Chen smiled and said, "I need to see Shangqiu on this point before I can tell you."

"So please!" Tongming said, raising his hand to invite Yu Chen into the room. During this period, he also took out something similar to a feather from his hand and shook it at Yu Chen.

A ray of colorful clouds rose from the feathers and fell down. As soon as they touched the ground, they rolled upside down, surrounded Yuchen three times, and merged into the void.

Seeing this, the Xuanbi in the auspicious cloud of vows also took her head back into the clouds and disappeared.

Yuchen glanced at the extra feather on his waist, smiled, and walked along the avenue along the road and into Shangqiu.

Before he could walk two steps, Yuchen saw many stalls placed on the side of the road, with specialties and objects from all over the Middle Land.

This is also a major feature of Shangqiu. In today's Middle-earth, the Shang tribe is the most traded tribe among the human race. Every year, tens of thousands of merchants leave their own countries and trade in various places in Middle-earth.

It is hard to say who appeared first among the human race at this moment.

As the ancestral land of merchants, Shangqiu has a strong natural business atmosphere. Although most of the time, transactions are mainly bartered, some stalls and shops also recognize something similar to shells.

Seeing Yu Chen staring at the things like shells, Tongming smiled and said, "Do you still remember the spiritual coins I saw when I was in the East China Sea? After I came back, I saw that everyone was still bartering and could not calculate the value of it well, so I thought about building something similar to spiritual coins. Unfortunately, the effect was average."

When Yu Chen heard this, he couldn't help but look at Tongming. A faint light of the sun and moon appeared in his eyes, covering the breath of insight from the air. He directly covered the number of air left by the Xuanbird on Tongming's body and the treasure lights on his own. He saw the chaotic divinity hidden inside the body, a magic weapon of the pagoda.

‘Wealth, money, business… is because the monetary system in Shangqiu is still incomplete, which makes this strand of God of Wealth so chaotic and difficult to form.’

Yuchen withdrew his gaze, Tongming let him observe openly. After everything was over, he smiled and said, "You don't have to worry. I won't be foolish about touching the things of Shinto. In Middle Earth, the immortal path and Shinto need to be clearly divided."

"Just know the importance of it." Yu Chen seemed to have not seen the chaotic divine nature in his body, and accumulated to observe the shops and stalls around him.

Slowly, he found that there were reliefs and decorations of Xuanniao next to these stalls. Whenever someone made a transaction, he would make an oath in front of Xuanniao, saying that what he said was true and there was no deception. The buyer and seller also made it clear that the transaction was completed.

After Tongming discovered that Yu Chen was paying attention to the Xuanniao pattern, he showed a proud expression: "This is also one of the changes I have brought to Shangqiu after I came back. It has greatly enhanced the people's belief in Lord Xuanniao. Almost every moment, I will provide Lord Xuanniao with great vows. What do you think?"

This time Yu Chen just smiled but said nothing. He and Tongming spent three rounds on the avenue outside Shangqiu. After seeing most of the situation clearly, they were about to speak when they suddenly heard a shout.

"Fresh slaves, fresh slaves I just bought, men are strong and women are healthy. If you buy one man and three women, you can also give one man and one woman two children."

"Come and have a look. The fresh slaves I just bought are both men, women, and young and old. Whether it is sacrifice or work, it is a good choice."
