The main city of Qingshuang City is hundreds of miles in circumference, and it is named after the cyan frost and snow that falls every year. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As a major city in Panzhou in the Northern Qing Dynasty, Qingshuang City became an economic hub, with large shops, auction houses, and rare underground exchanges.

Since ancient times, the fang market and shops have been indispensable to the support of various forces, and Qingshuang City is no exception.

There are three major forces in Qingshuang City, namely the Falling Cloud Sect, the Demon Moon Temple, and the Underworld Alliance.

There are one hundred and eight towns in Qingshuang City, of which seventy-two towns are the territory of the Luoyun Sect, and the Demon Moon Temple and the Underworld Alliance each occupy eighteen towns.

The disciples of the Luoyun Sect are divided into inner disciples and outer disciples, the inner disciples can stay on the mountain to continue their cultivation, and the sect provides resources for them free of charge; the strength of the outer disciples is generally not high, and they are mainly responsible for helping the sect take care of business.

Whether it is an inner disciple or an outer disciple, the total number of disciples of the Luoyun Sect is about 100,000.

Except for the business of Seventy-two Towns, which was monopolized by the local big families, two-thirds of the business in the main city of Qingshuang was forcibly occupied by the Luoyun Sect.

In the past, the three major sects fought for the sake of turf. Since the Falling Cloud Sect is a branch of the Falling Heaven Sect, with the support of the Falling Heaven Sect, it is very powerful, and it has almost destroyed the Demon Moon View and the Underworld Alliance several times.

Seeing that the momentum was not good, the two major sects of the Demon Moon View rushed to the Blood River Valley and the Ten Thousand Evil Sects, which were also the Nine Great Divine Sects, in order to gain a foothold.

In the end, the Blood River Valley and the Ten Thousand Evil Sects came forward, and the Demon Moon Temple and the Underworld Alliance signed an armistice agreement with the Luoyun Sect, recognizing the seventy-two towns as the territory of the Luoyun Sect, which could never be fought over.

After the two sides skimmed the battle, the strength of the Falling Cloud Sect rose extremely quickly and became the true overlord of Qingshuang City.

Even if the three major sects no longer clash head-on, small frictions between disciples are still common. The Demon Moon View and the Underworld Alliance are a nose out of breath, uniting to resist the domineering of the Luoyun Sect.

There is an unwritten rule that is recognized by the three major sects: if there is a conflict between disciples, the disciples who cause trouble can make an appointment to fight and find a place to solve it by themselves, and the elders in the sect are not allowed to interfere without authorization, otherwise they will bear the consequences.

Dating is when both parties agree on a time and place to resolve personal grievances.

There are two main types of fighting drugs, one is cultural fighting, and the other is martial fighting.

Compared with Wendou, martial arts is bloody, and it is divided into victory and defeat, as well as life and death.

The master of the method of literary fighting is used for the exchange between the masters and brothers of the sect, and the method of martial arts is used to resolve the grievances of the disciples of different sects.

Generally, there is not much hatred, and few people choose martial arts.

The emergence of civil fighting and martial arts is mainly due to the clear regulations of each big city: fighting is prohibited in the city.

The ban is to prevent the fight between drug cultivators from harming innocent people.

There are many underground drug fighting arenas in Qingshuang City, and after both parties pay a certain amount of gold coins, they can settle their personal grievances in a closed space.

The fees charged for civil fighting and martial arts are completely different; apart from the signing of an agreement, cultural fighting can only cripple people at most, and must not injure their lives; martial arts can kill people, and after the death of the losing party, the Qiankun bag will belong to the winning side, and the Qiankun bag items will be divided into one-third of the drug fighting field.

The guests of the underground drug arena are mainly disciples of the three major sects, so most of the underground drug fighting fields are opened by forces outside the three major sects.

As long as there is a contradiction, it must be resolved. The three major sects did not support or oppose the fight, and the disciples were killed in the fight, so they could only blame them for their inferior skills.

Luoyun Sect is located on the Dragon and Tiger Mountain in the northeast of Qingshuang City, with a mountain pass in front and a water danger in the back, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. This is also one of the main reasons why the Luoyun Sect has not fallen.

In the troubled times, the forces of Qingshuang City sprung up one after another, and with the exception of the Falling Cloud Sect, everyone experienced a process from prosperity to decline.

Once, more than 20 forces united and besieged the Falling Cloud Sect for seven days and seven nights, and in the end they didn't even break through the mountain gate, and then they were all annihilated by the strong people of the Falling Cloud Sect who came to hear the news.

Longhu Mountain, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, just like a paradise, there is also a poisonous weed courtyard on the mountain, there are special disciples responsible for planting, providing a steady stream of poisonous weeds for the sect. The natural grade of large-scale planted poisonous weeds is not high, the highest is the second grade, and the first grade is the majority.

Dragon and Tiger Mountain, is the most famous spiritual mountain in Qingshuang City, with two peaks, one dragon and one tiger, like a sleeping dragon and a fierce tiger entrenched on the mountain, showing the majesty of the Luoyun Sect to the world.

The requirements of the Luoyun Sect for disciples are: If you don't become a dragon, you will become a tiger.

Elder Tong and Gu Qing walked one after the other, walking on the long stairs, and when they met the disciples who greeted them, Elder Tong nodded lightly, which was regarded as a return salute.

Dragon Peak is the place where the sect leader Di Qing lives, and it is regarded as the forbidden place of the Luoyun Sect, except for chatting with a few elders, no one can set foot on it;

Master Ning, the only poison refiner of the Luoyun Sect, lived on Tiger Peak, and there was a separate courtyard, and without his permission, other elders had no right to step in.

If it weren't for taking care of Gu Qing, Elder Tong would only come and go to Tiger Peak for a moment, and he wouldn't have to climb it hard at all.

After the many disciples greeted Elder Tong, they looked at Gu Qing behind him, and there was a little more disdain in their eyes. Elder Tong frequently brought people to Tiger Peak, but the person he brought with him would turn into a dead corpse in two or three days.

I don't know how long it took, the two of them finally climbed to the top of the mountain, the top of the mountain is very flat and very vast, not to mention accommodating a few elders to live, even if it can accommodate thousands of people at the same time, it is more than enough.

The trails are criss-crossed, with twists and turns, and it is easy to get lost if you are not familiar with them.

Elder Tong was very familiar with this place, and took Gu Qing to turn left and right, walked for about half an hour, and said, "When you arrive, there is Master Ning's residence in front!"

The yellow leaves in front of you suddenly increased, and at a glance, it gave people a desolate feeling. One or two zhang away, a stone tablet was erected there to be baptized by wind and rain, and three big characters were engraved on the stone tablet: Autumn Leaf Valley.

Seeing that Gu Qing was a little stunned, Elder Tong explained: "In fact, in the past, the environment here was the same as the surroundings, and the four seasons were like spring. Generations of poison refiners of the sect have liked to live here to refine poison, and after a long time, they have actually poisoned a radius of one mile into this appearance. After Master Ning lived here, he renamed it Akiba Valley. As Master Ning's cultivation place, Autumn Leaf Valley is not something anyone can set foot in, and if it weren't for my mission, it would be difficult to easily enter the second forbidden land of this sect. ”

Walking forward a hundred steps, a thatched courtyard appeared in the field of vision, not yet entered, the smell of medicine is fragrant, and the smell makes people feel a lot refreshed.

The small courtyard is not big, there are seven or eight thatched houses, and the courtyard is planted with strange flowers, which are purple and red, but there is not a single poisonous weed.

It is really inconceivable that the residence of a poison refiner does not plant a single poisonous weed, but instead grows a mess of flowers.

Elder Tong reminded Gu Qingdao: "Don't touch those flowers, they all contain highly toxic, and the pollen floating in the air is also faintly toxic, and it is not a big problem to inhale a small amount in the body." ”

Gu Qing sighed, glanced at the poisonous flower casually, and withdrew his gaze.

Elder Tong arched his hand at a grass hut and said, "Master Ning, Dantong I brought it to you!"

"Elder Tong is back, it's hard work, the humble house is shabby, so he won't keep guests!" A voice came from inside the house, and before he showed up, he directly ordered the expulsion of guests.

Elder Tong didn't complain at all, and said politely: "Tong Mou has taken his leave first, Master Ning take care!" After finishing speaking, he arched his hand towards the house and left.

No sound came from the room, as if no one existed.

Gu Qing stood quietly in the small courtyard and waited for Master Ning to speak, but after waiting for an hour, no one in the house paid attention to him and completely hung him up.

About another hour passed, listening to the voice, someone came this way again, the footsteps were two large and two small, it should be two adults and two teenagers.

Later, the facts proved Gu Qing's conjecture, and the people who came to the small courtyard were indeed two middle-aged people and two teenagers.

The two middle-aged men were naturally the elders of the sect, and after they saluted Master Ning in the house, they left the two teenagers behind and left.

The three teenagers stood quietly in place, silent, motionless, except for Gu Qing, who was calm and calm, the legs of the other two teenagers were trembling all the time.

Crunch

The door of the house was pushed open, and a young man of thirty-five or sixteen years old, wearing a feather crown on his head, walked out, he was dressed in plain clothes, and he had a proud momentum in his gestures.

"Hello Master Ning!" Gu Qing bowed to the young man.

Master Ning glanced at the other two trembling teenagers, smiled slightly, and said to Gu Qing, "Boy, what's your name?"

Gu Qing said: "My name is Duan He, a person from Fengxue Town. Master Ning is well-known, the jade tree is in the wind, and he is suave, and he is really extraordinary when he sees it today, and he is really a dragon and phoenix among people. When I saw Mr., the little ghost died without regrets. ”

Master Ning said in his heart: "This little ghost is dying, and he is still so poor, which is a bit interesting." Compared to him, the two on the side are simply wretched. He smiled and said, "Little ghost, are you from that family in Wind and Snow Town?"

Gu Qingdao: "The kid has no family and no faction, Master Jiu Wenning needs Dantong, and he deliberately went up the mountain to do a little bit of his meager effort." To be able to serve Master Ning as a dog and horse, the boy is fortunate to have three lives. He knew that he had died for a lifetime this time, and he understood the truth that the eldest husband could bend and stretch, so he deliberately said something obedient to please Master Ning.

Master Ning has not been able to live for a long time, and most of the people who enter the valley are elders in the sect, and they all tremble at him, but now there is an extra sycophant who is not afraid of death, and he instantly feels a little more fun.

He looked at Gu Qing carefully a few more times, and said, "It's not easy to have the strength of an eight-star poison at a young age. That's not all, what surprised me was that there was a quasi-strange poison in your body, which was amazing. "He is a poison refiner, and his understanding of poison is higher than that of ordinary people.

Gu Qing was shocked in his heart, this Master Ning was worthy of being a third-grade poison refiner, and sure enough, there were two brushes, there was no trace of panic on his face, and he said very calmly: "The kid got it by luck, in order to refine this quasi-strange poison, my father died in order to save me!"

Master Ning said: "All things follow the way, why should you grieve. After finishing speaking, he stopped talking to Gu Qing and said to the other two teenagers, "What are the names of the two of you?"

A teenager said, "Zuo Changsheng." After saying that, his legs trembled even more, he was unsteady on his feet, and he staggered and almost fell.

Master Ning sighed and said to the last boy, "What about you?"

The young man threw himself on his knees and began to cry, crying as he cried, "Master, spare my life, let me go back." ”

Master Ning was indifferent and said coldly, "Name?"

The young man cried for a while, and finally squeezed out three words between his teeth: Li Fugui.

Master Ning said: "In addition to this kid who is still useful, you two are too wasteful, and your strength is too low, only a four-star poisoner." After muttering to himself, he said loudly, "Dumb boy, bring these three in." ”

Crunch

The door of a thatched hut was opened, and a pair of twins, both eleven or twelve years old, dressed in the same clothes and behaving the same way, came out at the same time, as if they were one person.

The two of them knelt down first, and then gestured to Master Ning.

After Master Ning finished reading the comparison between the two, he said coldly: "I know!"

The gesture of the dumb boy was all taken into Gu Qing's eyes, and he was shocked in his heart, and the two dumb boys told Master Ning in a dumb voice: The sect master has sent a message again, let us hurry up and refine the blood poison pill. There is a bit of a problem with our recipe, I don't know the authenticity of the pill refined, and there is a Dantong who has arrived today, so you can try the medicine immediately.

When he was in college on Earth, Gu Qing specially enrolled in a training class to learn mute language in order to help deaf and mute children raise funds. Therefore, the communication between the dumb boy and Master Ning is transparent to him, and there is no sense of mystery.
