Chapter 57: Lin'an

……

"Uncle Cousin, what's wrong with you?"

Some doubts came to his ears, Ji Yuenian opened his eyes, and what he saw was more than ten disciples who had entered the Xuan Realm, who were standing respectfully below at this time, and the person who spoke was a young man with a somewhat unruly expression, the closest distance to himself.

Countless strange memories poured into his mind, and Ji Yuenian was silent for a long time, but there was a slight groan in his eyes.

Could it be that this fourth level did not temporarily cover up his original memory?

Thinking that when he came down from Li Shixuan's Luan, this Star Yuan Peak Lord had some inexplicable smiles, and Ji Yuenian figured it out in a moment.

Although the fourth level does not account for a large proportion in the ranking of the overall ranking, it can very clearly reflect the attitude of the disciples towards the sect, and in some ways it is extremely important.

Li Shixuan, the master of Xingyuan Peak, should be afraid that he would have an accident in this last level and not be able to meet his expectations, so he did some unknown tricks and feet from it, so that his memory was not temporarily erased, and it was no different from cheating in this fourth level!

"I'm fine," Ji Yuenian raised his head and looked around at the more than ten disciples who had entered the Xuan Realm, "Let's go, it's time for us to go to Lin'an Town." ”

In this illusion realm, he was an old man in the Primordial Realm of Truth, named Zhao Yan, who was the deacon of a mountain peak in the outer sect, and was taking his disciples to Lin'an Town to collect spiritual taxes at this time.

"Yes, Lord Deacon."

Many disciples responded one after another, and their faces couldn't help but show some excitement.

The young man with a rebellious expression stepped forward and whispered beside Ji Yuenian: "Uncle Cousin, this Lin'an Town is desolate and tight, and there are not even people from a distance, will there be any changes in it?" ”

Ji Yuenian glanced at him and knew that his name was Zhao Mu, and he was a junior of Zhao Yan's clan.

"Don't worry, just go straight to town."

Because he had a memory, he knew very well that the most important thing about this trip to Lin'an Town was to collect the spiritual tax, and there would be no other variables.

"Yes, cousin."

Zhao Mu responded, and then ordered the several disciples who were left behind: "Give me a quick walk!" Do you want to keep the deacon waiting for you!? ”

Lin'an Town is extremely desolate, and the Lingtian Linggu planted outside the town has almost withered most of it, and even after Ji Yuenian and his party entered the town, the streets were deserted, and there were not a few people at all.

"Where is the town guard of Lin'an Town!?"

Zhao Mu took up his Xuan Qi and jumped up, standing on the stone platform in the center of the town, and the sound spread throughout the entire Lin'an Town.

The sound of rustling came from all directions.

As Zhao Mu's voice fell, many pitch-black insects emerged, crawling towards Ji Yuenian and the others!

"Black beetle stone worms, like to eat spirit valley and spirit rice the most," Ji Yuenian's cultivation of the realm of returning to the truth surged out, and a condensed blue light curtain was condensed at his hand, looking down at the pitch-black insects who rushed forward and pounced on the light curtain, "Lin'an Town is so decayed, it seems that it has a lot to do with these black beetle stone worms. ”

"The town guard of Lin'an Town, I've seen the truth."

A weak voice came into his ears, and on top of a house dozens of zhang away, an old man lifted a tile, climbed out from the roof, and saluted Ji Yuenian and the others.

At the same time, the sound of countless tiles being lifted sounded one after another, and in a short time, all the mortals in Lin'an Town were standing or sitting on the roof.

Some of them "sit" on the roof because they simply did not have the strength to stand up, and it took half their lives to climb up to the roof on the beams of the house.

Zhao Mu's face changed slightly, and he reprimanded: "You are the guard of Lin'an Town?" Why did the town have a black beetle plague but didn't report it? You're damned! ”

The old man smiled bitterly and said, "Shangzhen is angry, these pitch-black insects come and go without a trace, and they have eaten most of the Lingtian Spirit Valley outside the town, and sometimes they even eat the living!" Luckily, they don't seem to climb high, so they can save their lives by hiding on the beams inside the house when the infestation comes. ”

"I ask you why you didn't report it! The spiritual rice in the Spirit Valley has been eaten cleanly, what should I do with the spiritual tax of the Shangzong? Zhao Mu's face became more and more cold.

The town guard of Lin'an Town looked bitter and shook his head: "Although the previous Shangzhen left a communication jade talisman, I accidentally lost the method of using the jade talisman, and I can't urge it at all. ”

He was just an ordinary mortal who needed a very special method to barely activate the Transmission Jade Talisman.

"That's it," Ji Yue said in a young voice, "Town Guard, I am here to collect the spirit tax, according to the law of the Taiyu Holy Sect, the insect plague can be counted as a calamity, and this factor is excluded for the time being, you only need to hand over eighty percent of all the spirit valley spirit fields in Lin'an Town in the past ten years." ”

Every ten years, the Taiyu Holy Sect will collect eighty percent of the spiritual tax from the countless territories under its rule, which has been tens of thousands of years long, which is also one of the many sources of the sect's cultivation resources.

The Lin'an Town Guard's face was even more ugly, and he knelt down on the roof tremblingly, and said, "I am guilty!" ”

Before Ji Yuenian could speak, Zhao Mu beside him said, "What's wrong with you?" ”

The town guard of Lin'an Town actually shed tears in his eyes, and said in a low voice: "There was an insect plague before, and these dark insects poured into the town, not only swallowing up most of the spiritual taxes stored in the past few years, but also harming the lives of many people!" ”

Ji Yuenian frowned slightly, and said: "Didn't I just say it, the insect plague can be regarded as an accident, and Shangzong only needs the remaining eighty percent of the spiritual tax in Lin'an Town at this time." ”

"Shangzhen, please," the town guard trembled his gray hair, and kept kowtowing on the roof, blood dripping from his forehead, "If it was before the insect plague, in addition to paying the full amount of eighty percent of the spiritual tax in Lin'an Town, the remaining spiritual rice spirit valley was enough for us to survive, but now we are even living is a problem, if Shangzhen takes away the eighty percent of the only remaining spiritual rice, I am afraid that ...... I'm afraid that our whole town will starve to death! ”

On the rest of the rooftops, those townspeople also knelt down one after another, kowtowing to Ji Yuenian and the others.

"You go and gather the remaining spirit rice, spirit valley, and spirit grass in the town immediately, and take inventory."

Ji Yuenian shook his head, turned to Zhao Mu and the others and ordered.

"Yes, Lord Deacon!"

Zhao Mu and several disciples were all surrounded by Xuan Li or Xuan Qi, rushed out of the light mask, and stepped into the dense sea of pitch-black insects.

These insects can eat ordinary people, but they have nothing to do with the creatures that ignite the heart, they are just a little disgusting.

Among the many remaining disciples, a delicate girl dressed in red showed an unbearable look on her face, and did not move forward, but stepped forward and said to Ji Yuenian: "Lord Deacon, it seems that they don't have much Spirit Valley left, why don't we take less this time, help them eradicate the insect plague, and then make up for it in the next ten years." ”

Ji Yuenian glanced sideways at her, and thoughts flowed in her mind.

Disobeying the order, this woman has violated the rules of the sect, which is obviously a trap.

If you follow his advice, your evaluation in this fourth level will drop dramatically!

"Presumptuous!"

The Realm of Returning to Truth around Ji Yuenian's body was violently suppressed, and it was directly rolled up on the girl in red!

Rumble!
