The original Ding City, one of the nine lower cities of the Great Luo Territory, was controlled by the Wen family, one of the six great clans of the Great Luo.

Generally speaking, the more noble families in a collar, it means that the resources in the collar are very rich, otherwise it is impossible to feed so many noble families and famous families. In the same way, this often means that the competition between the nobles in the territory will generally be very fierce, and it can even be said to be bloody.

However, under normal circumstances, the substitution of wang clans is often inherited through substitution, and there are rarely new wang clans. Especially when the distribution of resources within a collar is basically saturated, this way of replacing famous families to promote prestigious families will be particularly cruel.

The four leaders of Daluo, Shangqing, Tai'an, and Jiao'an are all the biggest beneficiaries of the Wanzhulin Trade Road.

But even so, the benefits between these four collars are actually high and low, strong and weak.

Like Jiao An, although he did make a lot of money through the Wanzhulin Trade Road, but due to the influence of the territory's own materials, Jiao Anling, which is only rich in ores and some medicinal materials, can only meet the needs of the four noble clans, so Jiao Anling's comprehensive strength is the weakest among the four collars.

The second is the Tai'an Ling, with only five wang clans.

The Da Luo Collar and the Shangqing Collar are the strongest in the Wanzhulin Trade Road, and each of these two clans has six wang clans.

However, if you want to say which of the twenty-one noble clans in these four collars is the strongest, then naturally the Great Rowan family is the first to be recommended.

Although the Wen family only controlled two of the Nine Lower Cities of the Great Luo Ling, these two lower cities were not nameless places.

The Golden City, which has a very cheesy name, has the nickname of "Pinjin Grotto" in Da Luoling. Because this lower city is the forefront of the Wanzhulin trade route, basically all the materials sent to Da Luo Ling will be screened here, and the materials that are also transported by Da Luo Ling will also depart from this city. Its geographical location is as advantageous as that of Tushan County in Jiao'anling, but Tushan County is only a county seat, and the throughput of goods is really limited, far less terrible than that of Golden City.

The Wen family was able to become the head of the six major wang clans of Da Luo, and even ranked first among the twenty-one wang clans on the Wanzhulin Trade Road, completely thanks to this lower city.

The other lower city, Yuan Dingcheng, is not as famous as the Golden City, but the Wen family guards this lower city more than the Golden City, and even the family has migrated here, not in Daluo City.

The reason is simple.

There is a vein of spiritual stone with rich reserves near the original Ding City.

Lingshi is a kind of natural mineral vein formed by the convergence of rich aura, and is one of the most precious natural resources in the cultivation world. However, the mined spirit stone ore cannot be put into use immediately, but needs to go through a series of production processes to form a standard unit of standard products, before it can be applied to a variety of purposes.

The three most widely used are used to maintain the operation of the magic circle, to supply the cultivation consumption of monks, and to be used as hard currency in the cultivation world.

Compared with the disadvantages of taking too many pills, which will produce similar resistance to drugs and leave weak toxins in the body, the spirit stone is truly natural and harmless, and will not cause any sequelae to the monks. It's just that the aura produced by taking the pill can be directly cultivated and absorbed, but the aura of absorbing the spirit stone needs to be re-polished and transformed in the body, in terms of efficiency, it is still slower than the means of taking the pill, but the advantage is that taking the pill requires an interval, and the aura of absorbing the spirit stone does not need an interval.

Both of these methods have their own advantages and disadvantages, and it is only up to the monk to choose.

However, under normal circumstances, most monks would still choose to take the pill, because the pill was much easier to obtain than the spirit stone. And not to mention anything else, in terms of price, the spirit stone is not something that ordinary monks can afford, just one low-grade spirit stone can almost be exchanged for a hundred first-order eight-grade Xuanling Pills, but in terms of absorbing spiritual energy, its effect is far from reaching the medicinal effect of one hundred first-order eighth-grade Xuanling Pills.

The reason is that in the process of absorption and transformation, the aura is largely dispersed and wasted.

But in any case, the Wen family controlled such a spirit stone vein, even if it was just a low-grade spirit stone vein, it was still enough for this family to have a decisive influence.

At this time, Ye Kong took Qingyi and slowly entered the city with a coffin.

The coffin was bought by Ye Kong when he entered the city first.

There are four city gates in the original Ding City, Ye Kong went around a big circle to enter from the north gate, and then pushed the coffin out of the east gate, and finally joined Qingyi, packed Yiran into the coffin, and then entered through the south gate.

However, because of pushing such a coffin, it is naturally a little difficult to find a place to stay, and not all inns are willing to accept such a traveler.

"Master, if it doesn't matter, a broken temple or something like that, you can also live in it." Qingyi sat on the coffin, after being rejected for the seventh time, Ye Kong thought that this little guy would show a depressed look, but he didn't expect her expression to change in the slightest.

Qingyi's voice is not loud, not to mention that it is still on the street where people come and go, so it stands to reason that no one should be able to hear it.

It's just that the original Ding City is not an ordinary lower city, if it weren't for the limitation of the scale of construction, this city with a spirit stone vein could even become an upper city. But despite this, the original Dingcheng is still the most prosperous city in the entire Daluo Territory after Daluo Shangcheng, and the monks gathered here are not necessarily fewer than Daluo Shangcheng, and even because the Wen family's own family is here, there are no less than ten Yuanjing monks in this city.

At this time, after hearing Qingyi's words, a man next to him let out a sneer: "Broken temple? Which small county in the countryside came from the dirt buns. Not to mention that this is the original Ding City, even if it is an ordinary lower city, there will be no such place. ”

This man is not very old, about twenty years old, his appearance is not handsome, but his eyes are very attentive, and the whole person just stands here, naturally revealing a kind of arrogance of a child of a big family. The aura on his body is not strong, he has only entered the seventh layer of Xuan, and seeing that he is currently unable to converge his own aura into his body, he can see that the other party should have just broken through to the realm of the seventh layer of Xuan.

Although the young man's words were a little ugly, Ye Kong didn't feel any malice in him.

It's just that Qingyi's face was a little red at this time, obviously embarrassed by the other party's mockery: "I...... I don't know ......."

"Hey, it's a bun." The young man raised his eyebrows, glanced at the coffin where Qingyi and her were sitting, and then glanced at Ye Kong, "Corpse chaser?" ”

"Carry the coffin." Ye Kong replied lightly, he had roughly guessed the identity of the other party.

Because the original Dingcheng was regarded as a forbidden place by the Wen family, there were only two famous families in the original Dingcheng that could almost be said to be subordinate to the Wen family. And because of this relationship, there are also people from the Wen family who dare to show the pride of the children of the family here in the original Dingcheng. Besides, only the children of the Wen family, who are so wealthy, can use the spirit stones and pills to pile up a group of children of the family who have no cultivation.

Basically, as long as the bloodline disciples of the Wen family are not waste, they can at least have a cultivation above the seventh level of Xuan.

It's not that their talent is good, it's that the Wen family is really not short of money, and through the dual auxiliary means of spirit stones and pills, it is naturally impossible for their cultivation to be low. If it were a talented person like Luo Yuan or Xu Pocheng, under the two-pronged combination of spirit stones and pills, he would have already been a cultivator of the Xuan Realm at this time.

"Let's go to Lao Zhao's inn and have a look." The young man looked hesitant, but after a while, he still spoke, "Old Zhao is not jealous, he doesn't have so many scruples, and he dares to receive anyone, so the environment is ...... I don't say you know. In addition, the price may be slightly more expensive than the average inn. ”

"Thank you." Ye Kong thanked him, and then prepared to leave with Qingyi.

However, he hesitated slightly, then turned to the Wen family disciple and said, "Do you mind if I take the pulse for you?" ”

The young man didn't quite understand the meaning of Ye Kong's move, and his face was puzzled, but after thinking about it, he nodded slightly and stretched out his hand: "Please." ”

Ye Kong was not ambiguous, and directly reached out to put his hand on the other party's pulse, but soon his brows furrowed slightly.

Seeing Ye Kong's brows frowning slightly, the young man's heart tightened inexplicably, and he hurriedly spoke: "I...... What's wrong with me? ”

"No, it's just that it's a little different from what I expected." Ye Kong came to his senses and saw that the other party was nervous, so he chuckled and said, "Hmm, do you have a master?" ”

According to Ye Kong's thoughts, the reason why he was able to see Qingyi's detailed data last time was obviously related to Qingyi's contact, and he also moved his mind to accept the apprentice after seeing Qingyi's detailed data, so Ye Kong guessed that as long as he had any physical contact with others, he would be able to see the detailed data of the other party. But it's a pity that when he just checked the pulse of this young man, there was no such detailed data display, so Ye Kong would change another way of thinking.

"Huh?" The young man was a little confused, and his face was dazed, "Although I don't have a master, but our Wen family's children all have lecturers to teach, so why should I have another apprenticeship?" ”

"Lecturers teach everyone, but if you visit a teacher in person, you will be able to learn more." Ye Kong said lightly.

"You are, you want me to worship you as a teacher?" This Wen family disciple quickly realized what Ye Kong meant, and then a smile appeared on his face, "Hahaha, you are really interesting. …… But I'm not a favored disciple of the Wen family, nor am I a genius, so you don't have to fight my idea. However, on Lao Zhao's side, my name is still a little useful, and when the time comes, you will say that the fifteenth young master of the Wen family introduced you, and he should give you a cheaper price. ”

After hearing the words of this self-proclaimed fifteenth young master of the Wen family, Ye Kong's eyes suddenly lit up.

Because the moment the other party said this, Ye Kong was able to see the other party's attributes in an instant.

But to be honest, the other party's innate attributes are not very good-looking, and the only thing worth wondering about is the other party's yin and yang five elements.

Root bones: 2; Physique: 3; Perception: 4; Fuyuan: 3.

Yin: 3; Yang: 3; Gold: 3; Wood: 3; Water: 3; Fire: 3; Soil: 3.

Very average to the point that it can almost be said to be a mediocre personal attribute, with such an attribute, the highest achievement in the future is the Xuan Realm, and it is almost impossible to step into the Circle Realm, unless it is possible to break through by luck unless it encounters several big opportunities in a row. Just looking at his blessings, I also know that it is impossible for the other party to encounter this kind of great opportunity to break through the realm.

However, it was really the first time he had seen the five elements of yin and yang that the other party was so average that it made Ye Kong feel incredible.

And the most important thing is that Ye Kong finally knows how he should check other people's attribute information.

Trust.

This is a very wonderful relationship balance, to what extent, Ye Kong is not very clear, but through the contact with the Wen family disciple in front of him, at least Ye Kong knows that if he just wants to check the other party's personal attribute information, the trust and favorability required does not need to be too high. Basically, as long as you don't let the other party become hostile to you, or a state of vigilance or something like vigilance, you should be fine.

Knowing this, Ye Kong didn't plan to stay anymore, but before leaving, he still spoke: "You are not suitable for cultivating your Wen family's martial arts, if you want to break through to the Xuan Realm, I suggest that you go and revise the Little Five Elements Technique." In terms of martial arts, you can consider the matching "Little Five Elements Palm". …… Think of it as a reward for your information. ”
