"You should know that many folk legends passed down by word of mouth, except for some mythological elements, are often more true than the things recorded in later classics and history books. Looking at Lin Xi, who had been listening carefully all the time and had not spoken, Zhantai Qiantang added another sentence.

Lin Xi understood what Zhantai Qiantang meant.

The rise and fall of every empire in this world, the change of dynasties, and the ascension of every emperor will always leave some of their own will in some history books and change some of the original truths.

He didn't have the slightest doubt about Zhantai Qiantang's words, because he was the only person in the world who knew where Dean Zhang went, and as early as in the inscription left by Dean Zhang, he knew that Dean Zhang had the same speculation as Li Ku.

A thriving dynasty or place of cultivation has declined... There are a few legends left behind, and some of the desolate lands of the afterlife, but they have flourished, creating new civilizations and gaining some of the things of a world that has been destroyed.

This rise and fall is easier to understand for people like Lin Xi.

"What kind of reasoning is that?" he asked, after thinking about it, in a tone of inquiry, "Any cultivation method must always make sense... If there is a more intelligent existence in this world, or the original real demonic transformation, then what is the reason?"

Zhantai Qiantang smiled slightly bitterly: "I also asked the teacher at the time, and the teacher said that the reason may be very simple, the current magic transformation in Purgatory Mountain is only the effect of drug stimulation at best, and it does not really change the cultivator itself, but the real magic transformation, or equivalent to the clever alchemy, is to cultivate the cultivator's body to a complete change like a soul soldier." ”

Lin Xi muttered: "It's like the genes have changed, and people are no longer human." ”

Zhantai was slightly stunned: "Gene? This is a fresh statement... But I understand that you mean the same thing, that man is no longer human, but has become a demon. ”

Lin Xi nodded, "Then in fact, this kind of real magic transformation, when the time comes, most of the power will come from the body." ”

Zhantai Qiantang said: "It should be." ”

"This is indeed an extremely powerful cultivation method, but just talking about it for a long time is still equivalent to nonsense. Lin Xi said: "Even Purgatory Mountain has not been able to obtain this legendary magic transformation for so many years, if you want to get it, wouldn't you have to go to the Demon Plain behind the Heavenly Demon Mountain." ”

Zhantai Qiantang smiled and said, "Although it's nonsense, I think you'll be interested in listening to it." ”

Lin Xi frowned and said, "What are you doing in Qingyuan City, what are you going to do next?"

Zhantai Qiantang shook his head, looked at Lin Xi and said, "You may not believe it, I really can't think of what I have to do to return to Damang." Later, I heard many deeds of a firm in Zhongzhou City, and you may think it is ridiculous to say it, but after hearing many things about that firm, I felt that the great shopkeeper of that business was at least the most genius in the world, and I wondered if I could get close to this big shopkeeper to see if she was really as good as I judged, and to see if I could get some of her support and help from her in the future. ”

Lin Xi stopped, looked at the small village not far in front of him, put Zhantai Qiantang down first, then turned around and looked at Zhantai Qiantang motionlessly, and said, "It's ridiculous." ”

Zhantai Qiantang tore at the tattered and charred clothes, knowing that Lin Xi must have wanted to go to the village to help him find some clothes first, so he coughed astringently and didn't say much.

However, Lin Xi didn't move immediately, still looked at him, and said, "Is that business called Da Dexiang?"

Zhantai was stunned, but not surprised, and nodded.

"If I tell you, I am the owner of Da Dexiang. Do you think it's even more ridiculous?" Lin Xi said calmly.

"Ahem..."

Zhantai Qiantang was choked by his own breath, he couldn't imagine looking at Lin Xi, he wanted to speak for a while, but he coughed so much that he couldn't speak.

"Are you serious?" Zhantai Qiantang finally took a breath, looked at Lin Xi, and said.

"Looking at your burnt Tang Seng look, it's hard not to laugh, how can I joke with you again?" Lin Xi looked at him and said very directly: "If you don't have any special ideas, I will meet Chen Feirong next, and you will never doubt me at that time." ”

Zhantai Qiantang looked at Lin Xi and was speechless for a while.

After a while, he looked up at Yun Qin's sky, thinking that his teacher had let him come to Yun Qin when the palace gate was closed early, he sighed slightly, and said, "This may be my chance." ”

"Maybe you're my chance. ”

Lin Xi looked at him, stretched out his hand and took out a silver ingot and handed it to Zhantai Qiantang, and said, "For me, at least to deal with Wenren Cangyue, I have more strength." ”

Zhantai Qiantang looked at the silver ingot that Lin Xisai gave him in a slight stunned manner, and couldn't understand it for a while, "What are you doing with a silver ingot for me? If it's to buy my wages, it's too little... Could this be some kind of etiquette of your Yun Qin?"

Lin Xi pursed his lips, looked at Zhantai Qiantang with the eyes of an idiot, and said, "Give you silver, naturally let you go into the village to change some clothes to wear." ”

"Why do you want me to go?" Zhantai Qiantang suddenly had a bitter face.

"Your face and identity have been exposed anyway. But I don't want people to see me, it's going to get me in some trouble. And I carry so many blades. Yun Qin people are very vigilant, and I am afraid that they will take the initiative to report to the official immediately. Lin Xi looked at Zhantai Qiantang and said, "You can use a random reason, saying that you are going to take the exam, or if you accidentally burn the scholars who salute and wear their clothes on the bonfire, these kind villagers should be happy to give you some clothes." ”

Zhantai Qiantang nodded helplessly, took two steps, but turned around again, looked at Lin Xi who was sitting down to rest, and asked seriously: "Since the outside doesn't know that you are the owner of Da Dexiang, it means that you don't want to be known about your connection with Da Dexiang, why did you tell me so easily?"

"It can make both sides more trusting. Lin Xi was really not joking this time, looked at Zhantai Qiantang, and said: "Since you yourself have the intention of using Da Dexiang, let me tell you this fact, you may be able to understand some of my next arrangements, and we can do something together." ”

Zhantai Qiantang nodded, didn't say anything more, and walked towards the small village...... The moon is in the middle of the sky, and the night is deep.

In a quiet upper room in the inn, Chen Feirong, who was sitting on the bed with her clothes and plates, heard a slight sound from the pane.

She knew who the person who came, and she was also waiting for this person to come back, but when she heard such a voice at this time, her heart trembled slightly for no reason.

She didn't light the lamp, but silently opened the window in the darkness.

Then she saw Lin Xi carrying Zhantai Qiantang and swept in.

She understood some of the expressions in Lin Xi's eyes, and Lin Xi also knew from the look in her eyes that she had understood what she was going to say.

"Who is this?"

Chen Feirong closed the window first, and then saluted Zhantai Qiantang before she said softly: "Although the military has blocked all the news, from the signs that some troops are in a hurry, it is enough to know that this gentleman must have an extraordinary background. ”

"What is the origin, it's just a charred Tang monk who took silver taels to buy clothes. Zhantai Qiantang laughed at himself in his heart, and replied with emotion, "Damang Zhantai Qiantang has seen Chen's shopkeeper." ”

"He is Zhan Taimang's student who wants to pass on the throne to him. You may think it's ridiculous, but he came to Qingyuan City with the idea of wanting to get close to you. Lin Xi looked at Chen Feirong and added.

"He is the king of a country. Chen Feirong saluted Zhantai Qiantang again.

Zhantai Qiantang smiled bitterly in return, "It's just a dead countryman." ”

"I'm here to say goodbye to you, and to bring him to see you, to prove that I am indeed the owner of Dadexiang... He admires you very much, and it was because of you that he came to Qingyuan City. Lin Xi looked at Chen Feirong and said softly: "We have to leave immediately, and we may not be able to leave if it is too late." ”

Chen Feirong glared at Lin Xi, "You're still in the mood to joke... I can see you're leaving, but are you mainly bringing him to see me, or are you coming to say goodbye to me?"

"I can always see you again, I don't want to make it gloomy. Lin Xi smiled and said seriously: "The main thing is to say goodbye to you." ”

"That's enough. ”

Chen Feirong also smiled, "Where are you going to take him?"

"Go to the east. ”

Lin Xi looked at Chen Feirong and said, "Vice Dean Xia hasn't contacted me yet, so it should mean letting me do it." I'm just going to deal with our black market business, as well as some questions about the Liu family and you. ”

After a slight pause, Lin Xi turned his head to look at Zhantai Qiantang, and then said: "There are Nangong Weiyang and Zhantai Qiantang... It shouldn't be too much of a problem to monopolize the black market and be the leader of the rogue bandits, and even enter the Great Wilderness in the future. ”

"The entire Yunqin is the largest number of rogues between the Dragon Snake Mountain Range and the Great Wilderness in the east, and the number of rogues in large groups can reach thousands. Zhantai Qiantang hadn't heard Lin Xi say his next plan before, but when he heard Lin Xi's words at this moment, he was suddenly taken aback, "Lin Xi, do you want to control the Liukou along the entire eastern part of Yunqin... Do you even want to use the cave barbarian?"

Although Zhantai Qiantang is not from Yunqin, he knows more things than most people in the Yunqin military, and he naturally knows very well how powerful the combat power of the cave barbarians is, if he can have the cave barbarian army... That's a terrifying power.

"Don't think of me as too ambitious. Lin Xi looked at Zhantai Qiantang, who was extremely surprised, and shook his head, "Control the Liukou, let them do prospecting or trading, and even organize them into an army of Liukou... I've thought about it, but as for using the Cave Barbarian Army, I didn't think about it that far-sightedly. Regardless of the fact that Yun Qin and the Cave Man are also world enemies, even if the Cave Man is willing to send troops to help Yun Qin because of me, how can Yun Qin let the Cave Man participate in the war? And I know how the Cave Man lives... For my part, I don't want to involve them in another war because of my personal vendettas. ”

Zhantai Qiantang nodded and laughed, "So we actually agree on many aspects. ”

"The Rogue Boss has already had someone very interested in doing it... And you probably won't be able to beat her. Lin Xi looked at Zhantai Qiantang and said, "So if you are interested, you can be a rogue general and a black market king." ”

Zhantai Qiantang couldn't help but laugh again, "These two titles are indeed very good... However, Lin Xi, are you worried that you can't find a suitable candidate like me, because after all, whether it is the black market or the leader of the rogue gangster, it is against the laws of Yun Qin. In this way, your opponents will not be able to hold you back from these things in the future. ”

Lin Xi has an expression that you understand, you don't need to say it so clearly.

Chen Feirong smiled, took out a large bag, and handed it to Lin Xi.

"Since you don't want to make the atmosphere miserable, I won't send you. She looked at Lin Xi, her eyes flashing like pearls, "Take care." ”

Lin Xi glanced at her deeply, and didn't say more, ready to turn around and leave, but after taking a step, he still turned around, walked in front of her, patted her shoulder, and said seriously in her ear: "Actually, I came to say goodbye to you, mainly to say goodbye to you, take care, you can always see you again." ”

"Of course, it's all up to you. Chen Feirong nodded seriously, "I'm your person, of course I have to be good." ”

Lin Xi didn't say more, picked up Zhantai Qiantang and opened the window, and swept out with a wisp of fragrance in this room.

Chen Feirong didn't close the window for a long time, letting the cold night breeze blow her green silk. q
