At the end of the day, there was still a long queue of people outside the town gate of Taiping Town.

Meng Xiaojun stood in the crowd of people entering the city, soothing the jujube red steed on his side with one hand, while listening to the chatting and farting of the surrounding mountain people.

Most of the mountain people's clothes were tattered, with dry grass exposed for warmth.

Some of them have young chickens and mountain rabbits at their feet.

Some have hazelnut fungus.

Others were carrying bundles of firewood and walking in line towards the town.

Their accents are also a little different.

Meng Xiaojun listened for a while, only to realize that they were actually from different places.

The farthest one was from Wenqu County next door, and it took a day and a night...... Just for, sell a sheep?

Meng Xiaojun couldn't understand.

It's just selling a sheep, where is it not selling?

Why do you want to travel all the way to Taiping Town to sell?

What was even more incomprehensible to her was that.

These mountain people are so poor that they can only stuff hay in their clothes to keep warm, and they are quite happy to stand in the ice and snow, and there are few sad colors of those ordinary people in other places.

She always felt that the people here seemed to be a little different.

But what is different, she can't tell.

She could only carry a question mark in her head, and squirm forward little by little with the flow of people.

The flow of people creeped to the cave under the gate of Taiping Town, and finally there was a diversion.

The mountain people who led the sheep and carried the chickens and ducks walked aside, took the initiative to turn over their goods to a few samurai wearing dark suits and carrying long knives at their waists, and then entered the town quickly.

On the other hand, there are far fewer people.

Because the people who walked this way were all sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes with swords and swords.

There is a pavilion in which a white-clothed scribe sits cross-legged behind a long table, holding a red pen, and interrogating one by one.

It is very strange that these children of the rivers and lakes, who were lawless in the past and dared to draw their swords against each other if they disagreed, were very honest and interrogated at this time.

Meng Xiaojun also followed those children of the rivers and lakes into this pavilion.

Because she also had a sword hanging from her waist.

"Dare to ask the name of the chivalrous woman?"

"Meng Xiaojun. ”

"Lingshimen is ......"

Meng Xiaojun thought for a while and replied, "Tianxing Alliance." ”

......

The main helmsman lobby of the Taiping Society is dark all over.

There are no superfluous furnishings in the hall.

Left and right top ten.

There is a large cast-iron chair and a moire long case in the hall.

Nothing else.

It looks empty.

But there is a lot of light, not a deep one.

Zhang Chu leaned leisurely on the cast iron chair, holding a book of Heavenly Daomen knife books with a changed cover in his hand, and the light of tea on the moire long case in front of him was still exuding wisps of heat.

The mule walked into the lobby and said with a smile: "Strange hey, you are still on duty today, I thought I wouldn't have seen your figure in the past few days!"

Zhang Chu put down the knife book in his hand and glanced at the guy who was smiling more and more: "Something?"

"It's fine. “

The mule shook his head, "I just heard that you were coming, so I came to see you." ”

Zhang Chu picked up the knife spectrum, "Look at it, get out!"

"Don't mind!"

The mule consciously found a chair to sit down, "Can you give me a letter, when are you going to be promoted to the sea of qi." “

These words were obviously a bit arrogant, but the mule did not mean to hide them at all.

He has a lot of bad water, and he has a lot of careful eyes.

If he didn't have this diamond, he wouldn't have been able to do the porcelain work in Fengyun Tower.

But he never took these pickled things and used them on his eldest brother.

Can't, don't dare, and don't want to!

Zhang Chu really didn't think much about it, and after pondering for a while, he shook his head and said, "There is no fixed number for the time being!"

When the mule heard this, he lost his voice and said, "Why hasn't the number been determined yet? Isn't the seed of earth fire already in your hands?"

This is very important.

Because the Taiping Society is the Taiping Society of the eldest brother.

If the eldest brother sets foot in the sea of qi, many things will immediately become different!

......

Zhang Chu was speechless.

How should he tell the mule that there is no elixir in the earth fire, and if he swallows it, he can naturally promote the sea of qi?

The Seed of Earthfire appears to be a black stone.

But there's still a flame inside.

The black stone is nothing more than its carrier.

Can you eat fire?

Aren't you afraid to transform into a "vengeful flame soul"?

"It takes time to refine the seed of earth fire!"

Zhang Chu thought about it, but decided to patiently explain to the mule: "I want to draw the earth fire out of the earth fire little by little and merge it into the blood...... If it is fast, it will be three or five days, and it will be more than a month slowly. ”

"I can't miss Xiao Taiping's full moon banquet because of martial arts, right?"

He stretched out his hands to the mule.

The mule shook his head without thinking about it and said, "That can't be, we haven't rushed to that point yet." “

Zhang Chu didn't tell him that he was not in a hurry to retreat, except for the reason for Xiao Taiping's full moon banquet, and the reason for Wu Qianyuan.

Wu Qianyuan is still in the state capital to dredge the affairs of the Beiping League.

He had to wait for the bald guy to come back and discuss it before retreating.

"Also, don't get your hopes up for this Earthfire Seed. ”

Zhang Chu thought for a moment and added, "I estimate that this Earth Fire Seed can't support me to advance to the Qi Sea. “

At present, the most used in refining strange fires is this "silk method".

The so-called "silk drawing method" is to use one's own blood and qi into the fire, extract the strange fire little by little, and incorporate it into the body and merge with the purest and closest to the true qi that he has condensed from the five elements of the internal organs.

The successful smelting of the two and the birth of the first wisp of true qi means that the sea of qi is opened and the sea of qi is successfully set foot in the realm of the sea of qi.

On the contrary, it is a failure, and it is necessary to recondense that trace of blood and qi, and then continue to open the sea of qi.

If the Seed of Strange Objects is consumed and the Sea of Qi has not yet been opened, then you can only find the second Seed of Strange Objects again.

Zhang Chu is a little special.

The fire qi in his body is too heavy, and he can't balance the five elements, so naturally there is no "purest" and "closest to true qi" blood qi.

But it is precisely because the fire qi in his body is too heavy, and the overall purity of his blood qi crushes the blood qi of ninety percent of the seventh-rank martial artists.

Let's take an analogy.

The other seven-rank martial artists, Kaiqi Sea, first prepare a little flammable dry dead leaves and pine needles in their own bodies, and then strive to create a little spark to ignite these little dead branches and pine needles.

Dried dead leaves and pine needles are flammable materials that can be easily ignited, but it is obviously difficult to ignite dead branches and pine needles with a little spark.

And even if it ignites, there is a possibility of extinguishing.

After all, not everyone is as good at making fires in the wild as the man at the top of the food chain......

As for Zhang Chu, he can't prepare flammable dead branches and pine leaves, but he has a lot of explosives, and he only needs a little spark to immediately produce a sky-high fire.

The problem is that the ignition point of those explosives in his body is very high......

Up to ...... It probably won't ignite in the fire!

......

While the two were talking, Da Liu entered the hall, holding an object in both hands, and said: "Helper, a girl came outside and asked to see you, she claimed to be walking in the Tianxing League, surnamed Meng Xiaojun, this is her token." “
