Chapter Seventy-Three: To the National Capital
Three months ago, the Great Qian Empire, the junction of the Demon Beast Mountain Range, the Luo Kingdom was away from the Water City, and the hall of the City Lord's Mansion was inside.
I saw two monks from the Ning Yuan Realm sitting on their chairs, one wearing a black cloak, and the other missing a leg. These two people are Luo Yuanfeng, the lord of Lishui City, and the other is Li Yuanyi of Yunyan City.
Since Luo Tian was rescued by Yunye Zhenren, a few days have passed. Li Yuanyi was found by Luo Yuanfeng and returned to Lishui City. At this moment, I saw that the two of them were frowning, as if they were thinking of countermeasures.
Yun Ye Zhenren is one of the elders of the family, although he is only a separate monk, but his status is extraordinary, so both of them are afraid, they are afraid of the other party's intervention. In this way, it is really difficult to destroy Luo Tianyuan!
"Yuan Yiyou, how do you think this matter should be handled?" Luo Yuanfeng asked.
"It's difficult, but it's not possible to do it openly, we can come to the dark"
I saw Li Yuanyi say fiercely, Luo Tian is not dead, and the two of them will not be at peace for a day. After listening to the other party's words, Luo Yuanfeng nodded again and again. Li Yuanyi is right, if he can't destroy the other party, then secretly look for an opportunity to kill him. In short, you must not let each other go!
"However, now that kid is doing well in the split family, I heard that Yunye said that he was going to participate in the selection of alchemists. You and I have to do it before he is chosen. Otherwise, all the work will be wasted. ”
"Brother Yuanfeng, how do you say this?" Li Yuanyi was deeply puzzled.
"That alchemist has a high status, and the patriarch of the clan does not dare to offend the other party. Naluo Tianyuan's alchemy talent is excellent. I'm afraid that I will be valued by real people, and when the time comes, I will take a break. Even if you and I can kill it, we will offend the alchemist. Luo Yuanfeng said worriedly.
When Li Yuan heard this, he was also deeply anxious. In this way, you can only start secretly before and after the clan selection.
"In this way, please also ask Brother Yuanfeng to lend me some people and horses, so that I can enter and exit the sect's house smoothly. Li Yuanyi said.
"It's okay, I'm going with you this time. If I don't kill the thief, I swear not to be a man!" Luo Yuanfeng directly crushed the wine glass and said.
Li Yuanyi nodded again and again when he heard this! Then the two agreed that they would rush back to Zong's house in three days.
Xuanjin City is 20,000 miles away from the border city of Lishui. It also takes four months to arrive. Luo Yuanfeng and the others have been on the road for three months in a row, and now they are close to the Zong family. In another month, we will finally reach Xuanjin City. And at this time, the Bishui City family was about to start rushing towards the Zong family.
Although Bishui City is close to Xuanjin City, it is also thousands of miles away, so it takes two months to arrive. Therefore, the selection of the sect family is scheduled to be held in two and a half months!
"Brother Tianyuan, are you there?" Luo Binglan came to the Meiyuan courtyard the next day as promised. At this time, Luo Tian was resting. Hearing the sound, Luo Tian got up directly and came to the gate.
"Ah, morning, Sister Binglan. Luo Tian yawned and said.
"Hey, Brother Tianyuan, have you broken through?" asked the Binglan girl.
"Of course, otherwise it wouldn't be a waste of your kindness. Come, these are three True Yuan Pills. Take it and give it to your father. Luo Tian said lightly.
Luo Binglan was also overjoyed when she saw these three True Yuan Pills. She never expected that Luo Tian would really be 100% sure of the success of refining. The most important thing is that he can rely on alchemy to make a breakthrough, which is really a double win!
"Thank you, Brother Tianyuan, thanks to you this time, I was able to break through. Now, we are the younger generation of the family, and the two with the highest cultivation!" Luo Binglan said very happily. She knew that if she didn't have Luo Tian, she wouldn't have been able to break through.
Tomorrow will go to the sect family for selection, and today the patriarch summoned Luo Tian and the other eight people. In order to inform everyone, they will gather outside the main hall tomorrow morning, and then take a flying boat to the Zong's house.
In Luoguo, I heard that only the Zong family owns a medium-grade flying boat, and other families or forces are all low-grade flying boats. It takes two months for the lower grade flying boat, while the middle grade flying boat only needs more than a month to reach the national capital. However, the consumption of Yuanshi is also doubled!
A low-grade flying boat, I heard that the cost is tens of thousands of yuan stones, not to mention the middle grade flying boat, it is as many as 100,000 yuan stones to build one. It can be seen that this flying boat is a luxury for the rich and noble, and ordinary monks cannot afford to use it. Even if you have it, the consumption of Yuan Shi is not a small expense, and there is generally no emergency, and no one will use it indiscriminately.
At that time, Li Yuanyi was for a flying boat, but he went bankrupt and finally bought a flying boat. And Luo Yuanfeng's flying boat is owned by the Zong family. In other words, it belongs to Luo Guo, not to him personally, so every time he picks it up, he needs to go to the warehouse to pick it up, and he has to explain his intentions.
When everyone heard that they were going to take a flying boat, they were all excited. Because there are a few people who have never been on a flying boat. The first time Luo Tian took it, it was still Qin Mubai's flying boat. However, he was also surprised that this Qin Mubai could actually have a flying boat worth tens of thousands of yuan stones, and he was really richer than himself. But it's really funny to have a heavy treasure in your body, but you have to eat and drink.
"Juniors, the eight of you must cooperate sincerely, unite as one, and strive to be selected by the alchemist. I heard that there will be a total of 10 places, and then after a year of observation, the final candidate will be decided. And the remaining nine people will all be rewarded with a Ning Yuan Pill by that real person to help everyone break through the Ning Yuan Realm, are you looking forward to it!"
As soon as these words came out, they shocked everyone. Unexpectedly, this alchemist made such a generous move, and the cost of one Ning Yuan Dan was three thousand yuan stones. Generally, the market price is 5,000 yuan stones, which is nearly 50,000 yuan stones!
Then the patriarch said that this selection is more than a few hundred people, so the top twenty are also rewarded. In other words, as long as they enter the top twenty, the Zong family's trip will not be in vain.
"The younger generation is willing to do their best to separate the family and win glory!" I only heard eight people say in unison.
This sentence is still Luo Binglan sued Luo Tian. If no one sued him, Luo Tiancai would not have thought to say this. In his opinion, although he is of the same race as everyone else, he is always an outsider.
Except for the patriarch and the third uncle, everyone is no different from strangers. What's more, his father is still regarded by everyone as a plaything, and Luo Tian wants to correct his father's name!
"Okay, although the number of people in our family is small this time, I hope everyone will work hard and strive to get good results!" After he said these words, Luo Yunshan looked at Luo Tian and Luo Binglan.
"Binglan, what about your promise?" only to hear Luo Yunshan ask.
Hearing her father's words, Luo Binglan stepped forward directly, and then took out three True Yuan Pills containing rich vitality. When several seniors saw this True Yuan Pill, they all thought it was a superior elixir, especially one of the middle-aged men in white, who was even more shocked. This person is the only alchemist in the family, but he is not from the Luo clan, this person's name is Zhou Qing!
"This elixir is so superior, I don't know which predecessor refined the elixir?" Zhou Qing came to Luoyun Mountain and looked at the three pills that emitted a faint light in surprise. In his cognition, only an intermediate alchemist could refine an elixir of such color!
"Senior, this is not refined by some senior, it is refined by my brother Tianyuan. Luo Binglan also replied suspiciously. She really felt at that time that Luo Tian's refining was light and light, and she didn't feel that she had encountered any difficulties.
"Well, I can testify to this, my daughter once came to ask me to borrow the spirit grass, saying that Luo Tianyuan should be used for alchemy!" Luo Yunshan looked at the few pills and said. I have to say that these True Yuan Pills refined by Luo Tian are a few points stronger than those refined by Zhou Qing. Whether it is color or brilliance, it is better than Zhou Qing's refining.
Not only Zhou Qing, but even many Ning Yuan Realm cultivators were stunned. Could this be the elixir refined by the second-grade alchemist of the True Yuan Realm?
The three Dan Yuan Realm real people were also a little surprised, looking at the color and vitality content, they were all about to catch up with the refining level of the fourth-grade alchemist. Many people have heard of Luo Tian's alchemy, but this is the first time they have seen the elixir refined by Luo Tian. In this way, everyone looked at Luo Tian, who was standing there, and this look suddenly overwhelmed him.
"Disciple, come forward, all the seniors want to see you again. "I only listened to Yunye Zhenren.
When Luo Tian heard this, he walked straight towards Luo Binglan. The other disciples of the True Yuan Realm were all dumbfounded, and everyone looked at this stranger who had parachuted into the family.
"This is Luo Tianyuan Daoyou?" Zhou Qing said with a humble attitude, he was a monk in the middle of the Ning Yuan Realm, he didn't expect to make a big bow to a small True Yuan Realm monk, everyone was shocked.
"Cough, the seniors are strict, and the juniors don't dare to accept such a big gift from you. Luo Tian also hurriedly returned the salute.
"Well, you don't have to be so polite. The so-called layman looks at the liveliness, and the insider looks at the doorway. You and I are both alchemists, and of course we know how strong your alchemy skills are. It's just that there is a question below, with the ability of the little Taoist friend, even if he cultivates by himself, he can reach the fifth grade alchemist, so why do he need to join others?" Zhou Qing's words shocked everyone.
"What! If you cultivate the way of alchemy by yourself, you can even reach the realm of a five-grade alchemist! If there is a master who carefully guides you, wouldn't you have a chance to become a high-level alchemist!"
"Patriarch, things are a little strict, this junior should not participate in the selection, it is better to stay, we are responsible for supplying a qiē cultivation resources. It will be a few decades or a hundred years, and there is hope for the revival of my Bishui City!" I only heard many Ning Yuan Realm monks gossiping.
"Yes, if this son is really as Zhou Qing said, why do you want to go to the Zong family, why don't you come back when you get to the Zong family?" Some people are also worried, they are afraid that Luo Tian will dislike the small temple of the family and will not be able to tolerate him, the "big Buddha"!
"Okay, I have my own measure, Luo Tianyuan still goes to participate in the selection. He had agreed before, no matter whether he was selected or not, he would be the alchemist of my family. You don't have to worry, I will be optimistic about this junior with Yunye. The old patriarch said lightly.
Listen to my patriarch, and everyone will no longer speak. And Zhou Qing really wanted to learn alchemy with Luo Tian, but Luo Tian refused the other party with the intention of hurrying tomorrow. Zhou Qing not only did not get angry, but humbly said that when Luo Tian returned to the family, he would definitely ask the other party for the way of alchemy!
Luo Tian rested for the night, and he was ready to set off on the second day! And the fact that he shocked Zhou Qing with three pills was known to many clansmen. Everyone was glad that Yunye Zhenren had accepted such a good apprentice, while some people were afraid that Luo Tian would be targeted by the Zong family too early, either he was assassinated early, or he switched to the Zong family.
It's not that the family can't produce talents, and Luo Yuntian is a living example. In fact, during the long reign of the Zong family, the four major families also produced a lot of talents. But in the end, they were either assassinated or disappeared.
The remaining people who had no integrity even switched to the Zong family and became the lackeys of the Zong family. Although people like Luo Luyou are hateful, they can still stand on the side of the family, which is already good!
In the early morning of the next day, the three Danyuan Realm real people took eight people and headed towards the Xuanjin City, where the Zong family was located! Luo Tian looked at the distant sky in front of the flying boat, and he silently shouted in his heart: Father, the child has come to save you!
Xuanjin City, the capital of Luo, is the largest main city of the Luo family. In the more than 200 years of the reign of the Zong family, from the size of Bishui City at the beginning, it is now twice the size of Bishui City, which shows how rapid the Zong family has developed.
Xuanjin City is divided into an inner city and an urn city. The inner city is an old city that is thousands of years old. And the urn city was expanded during the reign of the clan. The size of the inner city is similar to that of the blue water city, and the area occupied by the urn city is also the size of the inner city. This urn city is also divided into four urban districts: east, west, north and south. In this way, Xuanjin City has as many as eight urban districts.
The residence of the Zong family is different from Bishui City, which divides half of the urban area from the four major cities and besieges an imperial city. It was the highest point of power in the country of Los Angeles. In general, Xuanjin City is divided from the inside to the outside: the Imperial City, the Inner City, and the Urn City!
Most of the mortals and ordinary monks live in the Urn City, while the major families and forces of the major families live in the inner city. As for the Imperial City, it is where the Luo clan is located.
In the past, the kings were all mortals, but since the Zong family took charge of the Luo Kingdom, they have been held by monks. In addition, even some princes, ministers, generals, advisers, etc. were also held by monks.
