Chapter 20 Heiyuan Town

"All have been packed?" Cheng Mingyuan looked at them with a smile, and Huo Dao picked up the teacup and drank it all.

"It's almost done." Cheng Yongye nodded.

Cheng Mingyuan looked at Cheng Yuan and Cheng Yunchuan: "Yunchuan, A Yuan, you are all the first time you have been to participate in the Heavenly Trial. If you don't know anything on the road, please ask you Uncle Yongye more."

Cheng Yuan and Cheng Yunchuan responded.

"You all carry a lot of silver, right?" Cheng Mingyuan took out a stack of silver notes from his arms: "You can exchange it with me for silver notes and keep some spare silver for pockets, which is more convenient."

Cheng Yuan and others immediately exchanged it with Cheng Mingyuan. Cheng Yuan exchanged a total of 170 taels of silver notes, leaving five or six taels of scattered silver.

"Yunchuan, this is the Little Jingyuan Pill. Eating one every day is enough to maintain the peak of Qi and blood. Without eating other meals, you can save a lot of time and energy."

Cheng Mingyuan took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to Cheng Yunchuan: "During the trial of heaven and man, you must maintain the peak of your energy and spirit."

"Where is Uncle Nagano and Ayuan?" Cheng Yunchuan hesitated to take the porcelain bottle.

"I have never been used to eating this thing. I always feel uncomfortable if my belly is not filled, so I don't need it." Cheng Yongye waved his hand and shook his head.

"So too." Cheng Yuan grinned.

In fact, after he became a celestial being, he always ate the Jingyuan Pill, and the old patriarch also knew about it.

"Just do your best, don't be nervous." After dealing with the chores, Cheng Mingyuan reminded.

"Let's go!" Huo Dao, who had been silent next to him, finally stood up and said directly.

~~~~~~~~~~

Soon, Cheng Yuan, Cheng Yongye, and Cheng Yunchuan followed Huo Dao out of the Zhuangzi, but there were more than a dozen members of the Chengjiazhuang hunting team, including Cheng Yongshi.

They went to Heiyuan Town and transported the preserved meat, fur and other prey accumulated in the clan to sell to the town. They would also buy some goods needed by the farm, such as salt, coarse iron, cloth, etc.

Chengjiazhuang and his group went up the official road.

The official road is wide and the ground is solid. On both sides are large areas of farmland reclaimed by Chengjiazhuang, with many crops planted.

Not only Chengjiazhuang, but many farmlands have cultivated farmland on both sides of the official road near the village.

First of all, after the crops are harvested, they can be transported directly from the official road, which is more convenient.

Secondly, near the official road, the terrain is wide, the yin energy is weak, and the danger is relatively small.

Heiyuan Town is about eighty miles away from Chengjiazhuang, and with a detour, the itinerary is about one hundred miles.

However, this is just a morning trip to the speed of the men in Chengjiazhuang.

Soon, they rushed for thirty or forty miles.

When passing by a deep valley next to the official road, Huo Dao, who was silent along the way, looked there for a moment and paused.

"What's wrong? Brother Huo?" Cheng Yuan asked.

Huo Dao shook his head, as if he was talking to himself: "The yin energy in Qingzhou is getting stronger and stronger."

Cheng Yuan frowned slightly, looked at the deep valley next to him, and with the sensation of heaven and man, he could indeed detect the slightest yin energy contained in it.

Although this faint yin energy cannot produce ghosts, and it is even more impossible to become an area like a yin forest.

However, in this deep valley, even the internal martial artist could feel that there was no yin energy at all in this trunk.

In addition to Huo Dao's words, a trace of bad feeling arises in Cheng Yuan's heart.

"Is this world gradually changing?"

......

Near noon, the Chengjiazhuang team arrived in Heiyuan Town.

Heiyuan Town is the largest town within a radius of dozens of miles, with seven or eight thousand households living in it, much larger than Chengjiazhuang.

As soon as Huo Dao entered Heiyuan Town, he found a restaurant and sat down, waiting for the people in Chengjiazhuang to finish their own affairs.

"Tsk tsk, this Heiyuan Town is better than our Chengjiazhuang. Look at the streets, they are covered with bluestone bricks, and the tiles on the house are also green tiles, which are much better than the soil tiles burned in our village."

Cheng Yunye, who followed the hunting team, sighed.

"Can that be the same?" The hunting team man glanced at Cheng Yunye: "There are families in Heiyuan Town that have been burning bricks and tiles for generations, which is not better than our village?"

"Okay, stop looking, go and sell the goods first, I'll take you to have a good time." Hunting team captain Cheng Yongshi urged with a smile.

Soon, they turned along the street into a yard, and a smiling shopkeeper immediately came to greet him.

"Heroes of Chengjiazhuang! Come on, this cart of goods is pulled inside."

"Shopkeeper Zhao, we're meeting again." Cheng Yongshi said familiarly.

"Hey, I've been waiting for you for many days." Manager Zhao said, and began to check the fur, cured meat, animal bones, etc. on the car: "Wait a moment, and you'll do it right now."

"Uncle Yongshi, Uncle Yongye, I'll go to the town first." Cheng Yuan walked aside.

"Okay, we will meet at the Shenji restaurant where Lord Huo is staying later." Cheng Yongye nodded.

Cheng Yuan has been to Heiyuan Town many times, and has always been calm, so they are not worried about Cheng Yuan.

There are various families busy with small livelihoods on the streets and alleys of Heiyuan Town, as well as some restaurants, wine shops, etc., as well as several ready-to-wear shops, grain and oil shops, gouache shops, and pedestrians.

Cheng Yuan turned several streets along the way and came to a shop with the sign saying "Three Foot Scent" on it.

This is a book shop with a small store, but after entering, it was quite neat, with several bookshelves and many booklets.

"The guest is here, read slowly." The shopkeeper of the bookstore was a gentle middle-aged man wearing a long gown. When he saw Cheng Yuan coming, he smiled familiarly and looked at the books in his hand.

Cheng Yuan also nodded slightly and signaled to respond.

Every time he comes to Heiyuan Town, he will come to this book shop, which is one of the only book shops in Heiyuan Town.

He walked into the bookstore, flipped through the bookshelf briefly, and soon, he took off three or four book books and placed them in front of the shopkeeper's cabinet.

"Oh? The customer bought a lot of books this time." The shopkeeper looked at him in surprise and calculated: "The 13th volume of "The Legend of Demons" and "The Legend of Demons" Volume 14th volume. "Miscellaneous Talks about the Netherworld", "Ten Years of Ambition", a total of 960 texts."

Cheng Yuan took out a small inlay of silver, which was exactly one or two taels.

In the past, he had to save some, but now he became a celestial being, and he could easily earn a lot of money by killing ghosts, so he would not have to be too frugal.

The shopkeeper wore a small string of copper plates for him, totaling forty pieces, and said with a smile: "Let's go slowly."

"I wish the shopkeeper a prosperous business."

Cheng Yuan nodded and smiled, picked up the four books and copper coins and left, and left to Shen Ji Restaurant.

The Legend of Killing Ghosts and the Miscellaneous Talks are all similar to the previous life’s ambitions and strange things. They record the affairs of ghosts and gods, or the legends of some powerful warriors killing ghosts.

Some are made up, some are true or false, and some are true.

For example, Mr. Zhao from Youhe County is a powerful martial arts master who killed ghosts and gods with the Killing of the Underworld fifteen years ago.

This deed was compiled into the story of the Demon Beheading and was widely circulated near Youhe County, making Mr. Zhao a legend.

"Ayuan, come and sit down."

As soon as Cheng Yuan entered the Shenji Restaurant, Cheng Yongye sat at the table in a corner of the restaurant, waved to him, and turned his head to urge him: "Old Shen, serve the food quickly, we are all hungry and put on the chest and put on the back!"

Huo Dao also sat on the table, as if closing his eyes to rest.

"Okay!" A response came from the kitchen of the restaurant. Soon, a honest old man came over with a few dishes.

"Heroes, use it slowly!" The old man put down the dish and greeted Cheng Yuan, smiling at Cheng Yuan: "Young Master Yuan, it will take less than two years to take you to participate in the trial of the gods, right?"
