Chapter 120: The Way of Ruling the Merchants

After another two days, seeing that Yangtian Pavilion's business was back on track and his injuries had all recovered, Zhou left Tu Yan and returned to Anping City.

When he arrived in Xicheng, he deliberately went to the old man with a clean face, and sure enough, the house was empty, and the old man was gone. Zhou Yang sighed, did not stop, and went straight to Lingtian.

It's late autumn now, and the big-leaved grass is about to ripen.

Zhou Yang looked at hundreds of acres of spiritual fields, sucking the aroma and aura emitted by the spiritual herb elixir, and was relaxed and happy for a while, and he was reluctant to wake up from the aftertaste for a long time.

Wouldn't it be beautiful if you could be accompanied by spiritual herbs and elixirs in this life, forget all your troubles, throw away all worldly things, and be at ease!

When it was time for dinner, Zhou Yang didn't return for a long time, and Xing'er came out of the stone house to call him for dinner.

Seeing Zhou Yang standing between the Lingtian, as if he was realizing something, Xing'er didn't bother, and stood not far from him and watched quietly.

At this time, Zhou Yang is not at all like a seventeen-year-old boy, but like a person who has experienced vicissitudes for a long time and is reminiscing about life and understanding the way of heaven. As time passed, Apricot seemed to be infected, and she couldn't help but close her eyes and meditate.

"Let's go back!" After a long time, Zhou Yang opened his eyes and looked into the distance.

"Oh. Li Xing'er's contemplation was awakened, and she hurriedly responded.

The two of them returned to the stone house one after the other, Tiehu had already set the meal, and when he saw the two of them coming in, he muttered: "Calling someone for so long, the dishes are cold, and they have to be hot." ”

Seeing Tiehu's appearance, Zhou Yang couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Senior brother, are you bored here?"

"Oh, it's not boring either!" Tiehu was stunned for a moment, and replied after a moment.

"What does this mean?" Zhou Yang was puzzled.

"Staying here all year round, no matter how good the scenery is, it's like eating only one kind of dish, no matter how delicious it is, you will get tired, do you say it's boring?"

"That's right, senior brother, you've all spoken out of your philosophy!

"Here, in addition to taking care of the Lingtian and commanding mortals, the rest is all cultivation, how can there be a boring or not boring thing on the way to cultivation, how to improve cultivation without years and months? If you don't improve your cultivation, how can you gain a foothold in the cultivation world? ”

Zhou Yang couldn't help but look at Tiehu with admiration, he hadn't seen it for a while, but this honest senior brother had actually realized so many things, which was rare.

The Li Tong brothers and sisters on the side were also in a daze when they heard this, and said in their hearts, Is this still a big grinning iron tiger? How could it be so deep!

Especially Xing'er, Zhou Yang's vicissitudes just now and Tiehu's perception now made her feel that these two people were suddenly a little strange.

"What Senior Brother said is reasonable! Cultivation has no time, and a strong person who has become famous is not the result of years of hard work! To be a cultivator, you must be able to endure loneliness, keep your heart, internalize it in your heart, and externalize it in your form, so that you can achieve the Great Dao. Zhou Yang was moved, but he also said a lot of new realizations.

Li Tong's brother and sister also nodded thoughtfully.

However, it is not the right way to practice penance. Without a long period of training and actual combat, no matter how exquisite the exercises and techniques are cultivated, they will not be able to bring out their essence and essence, and can only be said to be just talking on paper. ”

Zhou Yang's tone changed, that is, he affirmed that penance is inevitable, but he also put forward supplementary opinions on penance, that is, the combination of penance and actual combat is the right way. This is his experience, and he is also inspired by Qin Ming.

Tie Hu also pondered and slowly digested what Zhou Yang said.

"Senior brother, are you interested in going out?" Zhou Yang looked relaxed and smiled.

"Go out?" Zhou Yang's words woke up Tie Hu, who was pondering.

"Yes, I'm going to Dingbei City tomorrow, are you interested in going with me?"

"Okay, I can't ask for it!" As soon as Tie Hu heard that he was going to Dingbei, he immediately changed as if he was going to Dingbei, his eyes lit up, and he returned to his usual appearance, and he was stunned when he saw Li Tong's brother and sister, is this still the Tie Hu who looked like a master just now, and his face-changing kung fu is simply higher than his cultivation.

Zhou Yang laughed: "Okay, let's eat first." ”

He was not idle that night, and continued to comprehend the trick of chasing the wind for thousands of miles, and when he reached Xingtou, he went out of the house and performed it himself according to the Taoist records. Not to mention, although he didn't even finish the first level, his speed was a few points faster than before.

Early in the morning of the second day, Mo Weinan came to Lingtian, and when he saw Zhou Yang, he gave a deep salute: "Thank you Brother Yang, this grace will be remembered for life!"

Zhou Yang smiled, waved his hand and said, "How?"

"It's pretty good!"

The words of the two made the three of Tiehu look at each other and didn't know what to do.

"You came just in time, my senior brother and I are going to Dingbei City, and you lend the green wolf to your senior brother. Also, the two of us will be back in two or three days, and in five or six days, you and your brother and sister Xing'er will take care of Lingtian. Also, pay attention to all the news of the Xuanfu Sect!"

"Brother Yang, don't worry, I'll pay attention. ”

"That's fine. ”

After a few more words, Zhou Yang and Tiehu rode the green wolf out of the spiritual field.

He didn't emphasize Huang Lingdan's benefits and disadvantages to Mo Weilan anymore, it was useless to say more, he believed that Mo Weilan was not a mediocre talent.

Tiehu hadn't gone out for a long time, and his interest was very high, and he hummed a little song when he ran. His theory is also boring, at this time, only not boring, Zhou Yang who watched it laughed dumbly.

After entering Anping City, the two went straight to Dongcheng, because the teleportation array leading to Dingbei City was outside the gate of Dongcheng City, which belonged to Tongzhou Commercial Bank.

After passing through four or five streets and several residential areas one after another, the two of them arrived at the boundary street between the east and west cities.

There are also guards from Tongzhou Commercial Houses on Jiejiejie, but compared to the guards of the Xuanfu Sect in Beicheng, this place is much more casual, as long as they are permanent residents of Xicheng, they can enter Dongcheng at will, while residents of other urban areas do not have this kind of treatment, and they must carefully check their identities before entering.

It is said that Tongzhou Commercial Bank has a great relationship with the Cangbeast Palace, and it seems that what is said is true.

The streets of the eastern city are wider, and the surrounding pavilions are taller and more ornate than those in the western city, and even the northern city is inferior. What surprised Zhou Yang even more was that the cultivators on the road were not as serious as in other areas, but talked and laughed, and even talked highly, and did not shy away from some taboo words, and the degree of freedom was very high.

The way of ruling the Tongzhou trading house is really special, as long as they do not openly oppose the trading house, the cultivators of Dongcheng can speak freely, and unscrupulously discuss the relationship between the various factions and some interesting stories of the sect. And the purple-clothed guards patrolling the Tongzhou Commercial Bank also ignored this, which was really strange.

"Purple-clothed guard!" Zhou Yang was shocked, he suddenly remembered the three purple-clothed people who had been injured by him before. Their outfits are exactly the same as these purple-clothed guards, so it is difficult to meet the guard disciples of the Tongzhou Commercial Bank that time?

This is really possible! The three purple-clothed men were injured by him, and they can be regarded as a big bond, and if they are recognized, it will definitely be difficult to be good. Although there is freedom of speech here, it does not mean that you can freely kill the guards of the trading houses.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yang glanced at Tiehu, urged the green wolf, and accelerated towards the gate of the East City.

The scope of Dongcheng is also very large, and the two of them have to walk through the streets and alleys, and their speed is not fast, and they ran for an hour to reach the outside of Dongcheng.

There was indeed a teleportation array in the open space outside the city gate, and two green-robed merchant house guards lined up on the left and right.

Zhou Yang thought in his heart, the level of the disciples of the Tongzhou Commercial Bank was really clear, and the ranks were also very strict, the patrol guard disciples were wearing purple clothes, and the disciples guarding the teleportation array were wearing green robes. In this way, the clothes of the other disciples should not be the same.

At this time, he thought of the clothes that Liu Menglong often wore, and felt that this Tongzhou commercial house was really interesting.

Not far from the teleportation array, there was a spirit beast fostering place, and Zhou Yang and the others deposited the green wolf there, paid the fee in advance, and came to the teleportation array.

It's not that spirit beasts are not allowed to teleport, but they have to charge extra, and they have to occupy a place like cultivators. Moreover, some low-level spirit beasts simply can't stand the oppression of long-distance teleportation, so under normal circumstances, cultivators will store spirit beasts.

At this time, there were already cultivators waiting next to the teleportation array, and after the two of them arrived, there were already five people waiting, and there were still five left to make up the number.

Zhou Yang didn't want to spend 2,000 spirit stones to teleport alone, and his spirit stones were not too many to spend.

While waiting, he paid special attention to the teleportation array.

This array is indeed much more refined than the teleportation array leading to Tuyan City in the northern city, in the middle of the formation is a teleportation platform, and I don't know what kind of material is used to build it, and the platform can accommodate just ten cultivators.

There are four golden dragons made of gold crystals around the platform, tightly surrounding the platform, and there is a groove in each dragon's mouth, which is where the spirit stone is embedded, and the teleportation array needs the energy of the spirit stone to activate.

The one in front of me is a medium and long-distance teleportation array of more than 10,000 miles, and it is estimated that it will have to use spirit stones of more than two grades.

While they were waiting, there were also cultivators from Dingbei who had been introduced to Anping coming out of the formation.

If someone were to teleport over, the four golden dragons would shake and change color. When the cultivators in the teleportation array walked out, the golden dragon returned to its previous color.

At this time, only five cultivators walked out of the teleportation array, and the leader was a young man in Chinese costumes in his twenties, and the spiritual platform was cultivated eightfold. Among the four people who followed closely, there was actually one Tianyuan early stage cultivator, and the other three cultivators were all at the peak realm of the Lingtai.

Judging from the attire and cultivation of these five people, they must be either rich or expensive, and they are by no means ordinary cultivators.

This made Zhou Yang think of the Tu family and the children of the He family going out to practice, and his face gradually became gloomy.

Three more people came one after another around the teleportation array, and here they were still the last two, but these two people were slow to get together.

Zhou Yang and Tiehu waited for two hours, and it was already noon at this time, and there would be fewer people teleporting during this time period.

The eight people were all a little anxious, and one of the red-faced young cultivators spoke: "Fellow Daoists, if you wait any longer, you don't know when you will be able to gather the number of people, so it is very unwise to waste a lot of time. You think it's good, we share the two thousand spirit stones equally, and we will start immediately, which will save a lot of time, and we won't be able to spend a few more spirit stones. ”

Zhou Yang naturally had no opinion, and several other people also nodded in agreement. But there was a short, fat, small-eyed cultivator who didn't speak, and there closed his eyes to rest his mind.

The young man stepped forward, hugged his fists and said, "This brother, what do you think?"
