Chapter 80: Viewing the Mountains in the Clouds (Part 1)

The history of Linze Town is far longer than that of Jianchuan City.

Linze Town existed long before the glorious sword light that cut the sword river, and even before the three major powers of Qin, Chu and Qi developed and began to form a three-legged tripod.

A long time ago, there was no magnificent tributary of the Central Plains, which was divided into north and south of the Central Plains, which pointed directly to the foot of Yunping Mountain. The Jishui River, the most important Western Qin Dynasty, turned south at the southern end of Yan State, did not directly merge into the river, but into the ancient mountain lake.

The ancient water of the mountain labyrinth also passes through countless small waterways in the south, forming a large river bit by bit, and there is no large channel at all.

It can be said that in that era hundreds of years ago, Western Qin and Southern Chu were two countries that did not have a border between them. Many materials were even transferred from Dongqi.

In the past, Dongqi had such a convenient location, so he naturally collected commercial taxes and became the most powerful country in the Central Plains.

The high passing tax forced the caravans of Western Qin and Nanchu to find another way and opened up a steep ancient tea-horse road in the ancient mountain lake.

So, on the edge of Shanlan Guze, there is a small town - Linze Town.

Linze Town was extremely prosperous hundreds of years ago. Although it had no city walls, it was not inferior to the trading city of the Central Plains. However, with the emergence of Jianchuan, the surging river water made it difficult for cars and horses to cross, and the Ji River was directly connected to the river, making water transportation more convenient.

The establishment of Jianchuan City has more geographical and political advantages that are difficult to match in Linze Town - the direct jurisdiction of the three major Jianmen is much safer than the mutual autonomy among merchants.

Linze Town naturally declined.

The ever-increasing horse gangs have disappeared, and even many old households who have been around for hundreds of years have moved to Jianchuan City to enjoy a richer life.

The current Linze Town is completely on the banks of ancient ze, a quiet and peaceful place.

The residents of the ancient town, with the help of Daze water conservancy, opened up vast paddy fields east of the town. In addition, there was no official government to collect taxes, so it was considered as living and working in peace.

Chi Yunguan is located at the west end of Linze Town, closest to the ancient mountain zodiac.

Its age is also very old. It is said to be established by Taoist priests of You Fang hundreds of years ago, and the specific details are no longer verified.

Of course, this statement can only be hidden from ordinary people. In the eyes of knowledgeable practitioners, you can see that it is related to the Yun Sect at a glance - the simplified version of "Tianlong Cloud Seal" is engraved on the gate.

Of course, this cloud seal is not as mysterious as the outer courtyard of Yunzong. It seems to contain a trace of the great way. It can comprehend the magic channel method from it, but it is a symbol of Yunzong for thousands of years.

The Taoist temple worships not the Emperor of Heaven, but also a Tianlong Cloud Seal. Compared with the gate, the carvings are more exquisite and the materials are more exquisite.

The saying to the people is: Linze Town is on the shore of ancient ze, and the water is not deep, and there is a dragon. It is better to be in charge of county officials than to be in charge. If there is no protection of the Dragon God, how can there be good weather?

He said that, but Chi Yunguan never welcomed pilgrims. However, after Yu Qingyue took over, he often treated and prescribed medicine for the people, which led to a lot of reputation.

Moreover, on a small hill south of the ancient town, there was an ancient mountain temple, where several sages and Taoist priests lived. Since Yu Qingyue came here, they have never been able to survive again. In a few years, they rolled up the bed and left. The small temple was abandoned.

In Chi Yunguan's backyard, Yan Li was drinking morning tea leisurely.

Although it is true that Yu Qingyue's death is a fact, it is not a good thing for this old senior to practice ghosts. There is no need to be sad. Even if Yan Li needs Yu Qingyue's funeral to plan, she doesn't have to squeeze those few tears and win the Oscars.

A practitioner should take life and death lightly, and then realize the true meaning of Tao from life and death.

"Guiyun." Yan Li said while drinking tea, "Tell me, who will be the first to come to the door?"

Gui Yun seriously lowered his head and thought about all the people who were close to Yu Qingyue. He felt that Bian Quege had the closest relationship, but Xue Changsheng was not a person who valued friendship; Han Tieyi and Yu Qingyue were the closest, but they pretended not to know each other for decades, almost concealed by everyone in Jianchuan, and now there is no need to expose it on their own; the three major sword gates all had friendship with Yu Qingyue, but no matter what, it was impossible for them to arrive first...

Gui Yun shook his head and said that he couldn't think of it.

"Hahaha... the first one to visit must be the master of Fenghuozhuang." Yan Li asserted, "The master of the ancient road is warm and anxious. He doesn't think about anything when he hears the news, and will come immediately."

Gui Yun nodded and agreed.

"Bian Que Pavilion will be the second one."

"Xue Changsheng is such a kind heart?" Gui Yun said in surprise.

"Haha, Xue Changsheng is not kind-hearted, but smart." Yan Li smiled, "Jianchuan talks about chivalrousness the most. As the former head of Bian Que Pavilion, if Xue Changsheng did not arrive at the first time, how would Jianchuan heroes view him? Moreover, the status of Bian Que Pavilion is not only because of his superb medical skills, but also because of the alchemy of senior Yu. Xue Changsheng is not good at this. If he loses his virtues, then Bian Que Pavilion will no longer be as glorious as before. How would he explain to the Yunque Gate at that time?"

Gui Yun nodded suddenly. Although he didn't understand very well, he could remember every word Yan Li said. He asked again: "When will the people from the three major swordsmen come?"

"They will not come until the funeral day." Yan Li said, "The friendship between the three major sword sects and senior Yu is only common, at least on the surface. What's more, it takes several days for all parties to test. Except for their own people, those who come to the door recently are all pawns."

"How do you plan to deal with it?" Gui Yun asked. After a day, when he finally stopped talking, he subconsciously called "sect leader".

"Don't deal with it." Yan Li replied with a smile, "Should they perform."

Gui Yun blinked his eyes and showed that he didn't understand at all.

"In this game, we are based here and see the distant mountain scenery from these performances in the clouds and fog."

——…—

The Duan and his son arrived in the first wave.

Duan Heihu took Duan Yan and rushed all the way to Chi Yunguan's backyard. When he saw the mourning hall that had been arranged, he asked in disbelief: "Master Yan, Senior Yu... He really..."

"The old senior has transformed." Yan Li replied.

This sentence made the black iron tower-like head Duan's eyes cry, and the sound like a bell-like sound was choked, and he asked in a deep voice: "He... how did he go..."

"On the fourteenth night, an evil cultivator killed more than a hundred people in a mountain village in the ancient zodiac. The old senior took anger and fought a fierce battle, so..." Yan Li briefly explained, "The boss asked for a grief! Senior Yu has been a hero for a lifetime, and he still sang and smiled before he became a feather. He must not see this daughter's example."

When Duan Heihu heard this, he took a few deep breaths, suppressed his grief and anger, and said loudly: "That's right! Senior Yu's heroic spirit is our model. How can we, the younger generation, lose his might? Even today, we must let him leave with great confidence! If you need to serve, Master Yan said..."

Yan Li said: "Senior Yu has no children or children, and has no disciple inheritance. Only more than 20 years ago was the former head of Bian Que Pavilion. His funeral should be handled by Bian Que Pavilion. I think their people should be here too."

After a while, Xue Changsheng walked in with four disciples with a heavy expression.

"Senior, old brother, you are just taking the lead-" Xue Changsheng shouted loudly in front of Yu Qingyue's mourning hall.

Regardless of Xue Changsheng's character, at least at this moment, his performance is sufficient.

After communicating with Yan Li for a few words and figuring out the whole story, Xue Changsheng immediately said in a proper manner: "There are such a vicious demon in the world. I, Xue Changsheng, will never let them go! This matter must be reported to the three major sword sects, and ask the masters of the three sects to kill these evil and slander!"

This sentence reveals a bit of the fox's tail - since you, Xue Changsheng, swear not to let go of evil and slander, why are the masters of the Three Sects coming forward to clean up the mess?

However, this was exactly what Yan Li wanted: using Yu Qingyue's death to make the witch and ghost path in the southern border disrupt the city's storm, forcing all the masters of the Three Sects who were lying in the clouds to enter the game in person to calm the turmoil.

The investigation of the three religions is destined to have no results: the witch and ghost path is endless, otherwise how could the war in southern Xinjiang last for decades? The murderer, Lao Xie, cannot find Wu Yan, or else the means of the Jade Emperor Temple are exposed, and the face of the Central Plains Dao Sect is so good that there is no face? How should Tianfeng Temple, which represents the Taoist sect, be known together with the other two companies?

Therefore, for the three major sword sects and even the three religions, this tragedy was at least unsolvable. After a long time, people gradually forgot about this matter.

This time of forgetting is never enough to take only one month. And one month later, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival situation.

This is an open plan, and it is the first move, and the three major sword sects have to respond.

Once things are on the table, all kinds of small actions must be restrained. It will not be so easy to find outsiders like the witch tribe in the southern Xinjiang to test King Shangwu. In this way, the declining situation will have time to ease.

When everyone's eyes were focused on Shanlan Guze, King Shangwu threw out an extra-level bait at the right time, who could resist the temptation?

Even if you don’t want to, you have to consider the consequences of the inheritance falling into other families!

This move alone is a hundred times better than Yu Qingyue’s start of lobbying the three religions.

Seeing that Xue Changsheng took the matter, Yan Li immediately spoke up and finalized the matter: "Senior Xue is highly respected in Jianchuan City, and such a big thing must be hosted by Senior Xue! The younger generation is young and knowledgeable, so they have to do everything for Senior Xue. If the three major sword gates can join forces to kill the murderers and seek justice for more than a hundred villagers, Senior Yu will definitely smile!"

"Of course!" Xue Changsheng responded without hesitation. Although he was a little unhappy with Yan Li's words, he had no psychological burden on him.

What he cares about is another important issue.

After mourning and passionately, Xue Changsheng whispered to Yan Li: "I believe you also know that Senior Yu was born in the Immortal Sky Cerry Sect, and is like an outer disciple of me. He passed away today, and I must notify the Sky Cerry Sect. However,... the Sky Cerry Sect rules that such a major event requires a Langhua elixir banquet to entertain guests... the elixir is prepared by us..."

"Well, I've heard of it." Yan Li nodded and said, "I wonder what the regulations are for the Langhua Dan Banquet? How many elixirs are needed?"

Xue Changsheng whispered: "We are outer disciples, and the regulations are the lowest. Only the Qi-nourishing pill is enough. The number of funerals should be seven, which means seven per distinguished guest. The trouble is that there are many outstanding people in Jianchuan City, and there may be people from the Sky Creep Sect, so at least one or two hundred must be prepared... I can buy some through relationships, but the price is... "

To be fair, Xue Changsheng did not intend to take the opportunity to fill his pockets. Because without Yu Qingyue, the alchemist, one or two hundred Qi-nourishing pills were immediately large, and it would be difficult to buy them all! Yan Li could not be unclear about the market of Qi-nouring pills. It was also a very spicy and terrifying method. If Xue Changsheng had a ugly appearance, he might not have a good life in the future!

However, two hundred Qi-raising pills cost about 100,000 taels of silver. He was unhappy if he asked Doctor Xue to pay for it himself!

Xue Changsheng was about to continue talking, but Yan Li had already waved his hand to interrupt.

"It's only one or two hundred pieces, a small number, two or three furnaces are enough." Yan Li said calmly, "I can handle this matter. But I have to worry about many trivial matters outside."

When Xue Changsheng heard this, his old eyes widened and said in a daze: "You have learned it..."

"It's not difficult." Yan Li replied calmly, really not proud at all.

"Cough... Cough..." Xue Changsheng coughed repeatedly, as if he didn't breathe, and thought to himself: It's not difficult? I haven't learned it for decades! If I had this ability, I would still be living in Jianchuan City? I'll be at Yunqiu Gate to be a god...

In fact, Xue Changsheng didn’t know how to refine Qi Gong Pills. After all, he was also from the Sky Creep Sect. It’s just that little bit of success rate... it’s better not to mention it.

After being surprised, Xue Changsheng immediately reacted: The alchemist in front of him is so young, and Yu Qingyue's connections will be free of any problem to send him to the Sky Creep Sect! Isn't there a bright future in the future?

Thinking of this, he immediately became eager, changed his verbal title, and slapped his chest and said proudly: "Master Yan just cares about refining the alchemy! I will deal with other trivial matters, so I will definitely let Senior Brother Yu leave with peace of mind!"

As soon as he said this, he heard a riot in the front yard.

A young man with a slick voice came from outside the gate of Chi Yunguan: "I heard that the old bull has died. When will he pay the money he owes me to the Li family? If he can't pay it back, should he use land deeds to pay it back, or use elixirs?"

Then, there was a mess of laughter.

When Yan Li heard the sound, his eyes flashed with sharp light: Is the show going to open now?
