Qingyang City was included in the big city, and the prayer beads gradually became popular, and the more monks gathered in the city, the greater the benefits.

Even if the capital city does not appoint a mage to come over, the competition between the scattered cultivators must be extremely fierce.

As a subordinate mage, cultivation is naturally the most important indicator.

Zhong Yan had expected this for a long time, and asked, "I don't know what the Qin City Lord has?" ”

Qin Ben said: "Xiaobaifeng has gathered a small group of mountain bandits, and according to reliable information, there are only four monks for the time being. ”

"The highest cultivation is the peak of the seventh layer of qi refining, one is the sixth layer of qi refining, two are the fifth layer of qi refining, and the rest are all martial artists, about thirty or forty people, of which there are no more than ten people in the innate realm."

"With the strength of the Zhong Mansion, it is not difficult to exterminate, my side can send two hundred elite soldiers to you, it is best not to ask another monk for help."

Zhong Yan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it and find a time to solve it." ”

Xiao Baifeng knew that there were also a group of mountain bandits in the past, who were easily strangled by him on the way back to the city in Fang City by the hands of Song Yunhui, the law enforcement elder of the Huoyun Sect.

Qin Ben: "If there are any more demon beasts in each market town, Master Zhong can also go out in person to kill the demon trouble." ”

"Okay."

Zhong Yan nodded and asked, "How long can the Qin City Lord stay in Qingyang?" ”

After looking at each other for a moment, Qin Ben said: "About three or five years, depending on the battle situation of the Wei State, the capital should be exchanged for my control of Qingyang on the condition of the commander of the war." ”

"But Master Zhong rest assured, the cooperation between you and me will not be terminated, and Qin has been operating in Qingyang for many years, and he is not unprepared."

"In addition, Master Zhong also has to be mentally prepared, the Colosseum has made huge profits, and it is inevitable that someone will have to intervene, and it will be the best result for you and me to keep half of the water at that time."

Qin Ben sighed and continued: "The arm can't twist the thigh, the one who knows the times is a junjie, so bear it when the time comes." ”

After a pause, he smiled meaningfully and said, "Of course, if the mage can find someone to come out, that's another matter. ”

Zhong Yan bowed his head, it was not a surprise at all, at least the Huoyun Sect and the royal family would definitely participate in the carving up.

As for finding someone to get ahead.

Although the Colosseum has a large income, Zhong Yan doesn't want to trouble Qifeng and use up favors.

……

Outside the guest house.

Bai Siyuan and Pang Bao both stood on the side of the street waiting, secretly chatting with each other.

"Can Bai Daoyou know the reason why Zhong Daoyou's realm is not obvious?"

"I asked about this matter, and said that it was a secret treasure, from the Seven Peaks of the Fire Cloud Sect, and Pei Nanjin and Gongsun Nuannuan, who went to the Zhong Mansion last time, were the disciples of the Seven Peaks."

"Oh?"

Pang Baodu was surprised, and his eyes flickered: "Zhong Daoyou's sixth layer of qi refining is well known, why did he suddenly cover it up with treasures?" It's not going to break through to the late stage, right? ”

Bai Siyuan's eyelids jumped, and he groaned: "It's possible, I had this idea before, but it's too fast!" ”

Because of the large cost of opening the Colosseum, Pang Baodu had already learned that he had made a lot of money from the mage at the beginning, and squinted and smiled:

"Aren't you going to rise so fast? Advancing to the ninth floor is only a matter of one or two years. ”

In the case of swallowing the pill, Bai Siyuan has now reached the peak of the eighth layer of qi refining.

The reason why he felt that Zhong Yan's breakthrough through the seventh layer was unbelievable was because he was much better qualified than Zhong Yan.

"If it's true, Brother Zhong is really a late bloomer, staying in the third layer for nearly twenty years, this detachment from the sect, cultivation is progressing, and he is also cultivating talismans and formations......"

During the transmission, I saw Zhong Yan coming.

Bai Siyuan asked with a casual smile: "Brother Zhong, does Qin Ben have important news?" ”

Zhong Yan said about the matter of the Master and the Colosseum, and finally said: "Brother Dao, don't worry, when you break through the ninth layer, plus three years of re-election qualifications, there is a great chance." ”

Bai Siyuan frowned and said, "It is estimated that the late-stage monks who will settle in Qingyang next year will be able to exceed 100, and the ninth floor is not safe." ”

Then he scolded again: "Grandma's, we plant trees and others pick peaches, half of it!" I'm not afraid to die! ”

Pang Baodu said: "Maybe half of it won't be divided." ”

Zhong Yan said: "That's no way, while you can still call the shots, do more shows!" ”

The three exchanged glances, and they all smiled wickedly.

Although Pang Baodu does not have a share of the Colosseum, he can bet on the right bet.

Operate in the dark and harvest leeks.

Bai Siyuan smiled and said ruthlessly: "Maybe when you come, as soon as possible, get a few late-stage demon beasts, it is best to have nine layers, grandma's, Zait's mother's!" ”

……

Back to Fuchu.

Passing through a long corridor in the outer courtyard, Zhong Yan saw Jiang Ping and Yang Liu'er each with their maids, competing against each other, and blushed.

"What's wrong?"

Yang Liu'er bowed and smiled: "Uncle, it's okay, I'll talk to Mrs. Ping about the cloth business." ”

The maid Xiaoqing wanted to speak and stopped, but was pulled down by Jiang Ping, who had an ugly face, and said with a smile: "Yes, husband." ”

"Ping'er, you have to learn more from your sister-in-law." Zhong Yan knew this, said lightly, and walked away.

"Uncle! The concubine has something to tell you! ”

Yang Liu'er gave Jiang Ping a smug look and quickly caught up.

Away from the garden, Yang Liu'er took out a note from the purse around her waist and handed it over, saying, "Uncle, this is what I received last night." ”

Zhong Yan opened it and swept his eyes, it was news from Huo Donglai, about Yuan Zhiqing, the seventh disciple of the Seven Peaks.

"Yuan Zhiqing, twenty-eight years old, with two attributes of gold and wood, has a true spiritual root, builds a first-level realm, and was brought into the Seven Peaks of the Fire Cloud Sect by Li Lin at the age of seven to be accepted as a personal disciple."

"It is rumored that because of his weak health, he was sick, and he only began to practice at the age of fourteen...... In charge of the medicine garden in Qifeng. ”

More detailed than previously investigated, but limited.

For example, the exercises and supernatural powers of his major are not clear, and there is no portrait, and the reason and destination for leaving the sect and going down the mountain are unknown.

"Uncle, do you need a reply?"

"No, let Sandao and Yunning go to the side hall of the first courtyard to find me."

"Yes, uncle."

After half a stick of incense.

Zhong Yan explained to Yan Sandao and Zhou Yunning that they had arranged preparations for suppressing the bandits, and then went to the cultivation room to start refining talismans.

Now that the realm has been promoted to the late stage, as long as the experience is sufficient, the rune path can break through to the second order.

[Occupation: Talisman (1st Order Upper Grade 47823/60000), Formation (1st Order Lower Grade 2569/5000)]

There is only more than 10,000 experience left, and his training has grown rapidly, and if he finds Yan Sandao a few more times, he will be able to break through this year.

Flattered.

In the evening, Dongcao came to remind: "Husband, today is the first day of class, and Ziying's sister-in-law has won the lottery." ”

"Got it."

After making the talisman in his hand, Zhong Yan simply cleaned it up, stepped on the red rainbow and left.

The other side.

Liu Ziying finished bathing early, and after careful dressing, it was bright and moving, and full of mature charm.

There are many women in Zhongfu, Zhong Yan is busy with practice, and when he is free, he distributes most of the elite soldiers to Yu Qingyao and Yan Sandao, and other wives and concubines are indeed rare to have a turn.

Since she entered the Zhong Mansion, she has been pampered twice, once in Fuyang Town, and once with Yang Liuer.

If you think about it, you can only talk about it in your dreams for comfort.

I never thought that the first draw of the year would be a big luck.

Naturally, I had to rivet my strength, and while waiting, I also absorbed a handful.

Wearing a lilac palace dress, Liu Ziying walked to the door, looked at the moonlight, and waved the two maids away.

You have to keep a low profile and work secretly.

Although she lives in Zhong's Mansion, on the surface, she and Zhong Yan are still uncles and sisters-in-law, and her daughter Li Jingqiu has to marry Zhong Yan.

However, Li Jingqiu and Jiang Huan, two little girls in name only, don't know about this matter.

It's three o'clock.

I saw the figure fall in the courtyard.

Liu Ziying stepped forward quickly.

"The concubine has seen her uncle!"

Zhong Yan bowed his head, looked at her face, and entered hand in hand.

Drink tea and have a brief chat.

The two of them started the fierce journey directly on the living room table.

Not much.

After finishing the exercises, Li Jingqiu walked with a brisk step.

When she arrived at the door, she heard a strange sound inside, her steps paused, her face changed greatly, she reached out to cover her mouth, there was not only her mother's voice inside, who was the other one?!

The next moment, I heard:

"Uncle~"

"Oh!"

Li Jingqiu's face changed again and again, he bit his lip tightly and turned around and walked back quickly.

Inside the house, Zhong Yan kept moving, "Jingqiu is here." ”

"Huh? How? ”

"Gone again."

Zhong Yan didn't answer, and became more and more rapid.

Long.

Liu Ziying knelt on the ground to clean up the remnants, and said intermittently and vaguely: "Uncle don't blame, the concubine will explain to Qiu'er and do a good job ......of ideological work."

Next.

At the family banquet held every seven days in the Zhong Mansion, Li Jingqiu was absent due to physical discomfort.

Zhong Yan's face was unwavering, and he laughed with a few children.

However, Dongcao and Yang Liu'er's eyes flickered, as if they sensed something, and glanced back and forth on Zhong Yan and Liu Ziying's faces.

Jiang Huan and Li Jingqiu practice martial arts together all day long, and they usually don't have to participate in the affairs of the house, so it is rare to meet everyone.

So the two of them are very active in every family dinner and have never been absent.

After the meal, several women gathered together to talk.
