The two walked away for a long time, and Yang Zhao turned his head and said softly, "We should be coming to Duize Prefecture now, right?" ”

Zhou Qingwan nodded when he heard this, and a city was already faintly visible in his field of vision, and replied: "According to the marks on the map, after the Broken Soul Heavenly Abyss, it will be Duzezhou." There seems to be a city ahead, we can ask in a moment! ”

Yang Zhao looked into the distance and saw a faint city, he was overjoyed, and his pace sped up a lot.

"I can finally have another good human meal! Grandma's, I'm starving to death these days! ”

Although Yang Zhao, who has stepped into the path of cultivation, breaks and then stands, and faintly will go to the next level, he never cares about the rules of Daomen Qing Cultivation. On the contrary, although he was born in a famous family, Yang Zhao, who has always regarded himself as a child of the rivers and lakes, cares about the wine and food in the world very much!

The two of them walked for a long time before they finally approached the city. At this time, the two of them stood on a mountain bag, looking at the city wall engraved with the plaque of "Kong Huai" from a distance.

Yang Zhao patted his thigh at this time, and said overjoyed: "I remember here, it's Kong Huaicheng in Duize Prefecture." It is located in the farthest city in the northeast of Duize Prefecture, although it is separated from Kanshui Prefecture by a Broken Soul Heavenly Abyss, but it is bordered by the northwest of Huozhou. So there are still a lot of people coming and going here, and it can be regarded as a prosperous big city! ”

Hearing this, Zhou Qingwan asked, "It seems that this place is very famous!" But why was the city named Kong Huai? I didn't read much since I was a child, so I didn't quite understand the meaning. “

Yang Zhao smiled embarrassedly when he heard this, and said: "Actually, I don't know much about these, it seems to come from a sentence of "Brother Kong Huai" in a Confucian classic. In the past, when the old men in my family told me about the states of the Eastern Regions of the Heavenly Qian, every time I would be drowsy, and then I would fall asleep as I listened. I just feel that I still need to know these things? I'm not one of those sour scholars, and I know that these things are not beneficial to my cultivation, so I never care. I listened to it when I really couldn't sleep, and I memorized these things. It's possible that I'm mistaken, so don't ask me about these things. ”

Zhou Qingwan was also quite helpless about this, so he had to take another step and simply didn't ask.

In the twilight of autumn, between heaven and earth, there is a desolation.

Zhou Qingdui's mind suddenly appeared in his mind, the Confucian with white clothes and a gentle face, and said a word coldly.

"Between the mountains and rivers, the homeland and the land, it is all learning."

"Zhou Qingdu, why did you suddenly become crepe?"

......

In Kanshui Prefecture, the cliff above the Broken Soul Heavenly Abyss was no longer a middle-aged man.

At this time, the middle-aged man with a vicissitudes of life stood among the clouds, and beside him was the old man in the Taoist robe with a smile on his face.

The old man in the Taoist robe frowned suddenly, and said to the middle-aged man, "Xuan Jiu, I won't accompany you to guard here." Just now, the news from the West came over, and something went wrong with the Lotus Cave, and he was anxious to ask the old man to go back to the town. The old man is old, and an old bone is not as good as you young people! Once this time is gone, I'm afraid it's hard to see the excitement of your generation again! ”

Xuan Jiu frowned when he heard this, and said, "How can the Lotus Cave Heaven?" ”

The old man in the Taoist robe walked slowly with his back to Xuan Jiu, as if he was much older.

"Well, there will be such a day! This is true for both the Lotus Cave Heaven and the old man. The old man has lived for hundreds of years and has seen too many wonderful things, so it's time to make way for you young people. ”

Xuan Jiu's complexion changed, and infinite regret arose in his heart, and finally responded to the old man's words: "Senior, it is a blessing in the world to have you!" The next thing, I believe Ye Jing'an, he will find the way. The rest of the burden is on us and in the hands of those children! ”

The old man in the robe smiled and nodded, a burst of golden light appeared on his body, his white hair fell out, and the robe turned into a robe!

At this time, the old man was already like a Buddha who saved suffering!

"Juniors send seniors!"

Xuan Jiu looked at the old back, bent down and bowed his hand.

......

Yang Zhao and Zhou Qingdui found a restaurant in the city, Zhou Qingdui gritted his teeth and took out a few taels of silver, the two ordered vegetables and served rice.

One bowl of braised pork, two bowls of rice.

This was already the last half of Zhou Qingdu's remaining belongings, and most of the fifty taels of silver left by Tang Zijin had been consumed during the journey.

Zhou Qingwan never imagined that the consumption of food in this city alone would be so high, you must know that these few taels of silver are in Zhou Qingdu's hometown, but they are enough to eat a large table of braised pork.

When the shopkeeper served the food, Yang Zhao devoured it without hesitation.

Seeing this, Zhou Qingdui was not to be outdone, picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, and ate the rice in a big gulp. That's not all, there were not a few pieces of meat in the bowl, and the two fought for a while before Yang Zhao put down the chopsticks as if he had surrendered, and Zhou Qingwan grabbed the last piece of fragrant meat, which ended with half a bowl of rice.

Such a demeanor made the shopkeeper at the table have a burst of disdain in his eyes.

But the two brothers, who were so poor that they only had a few taels of silver left in Zhou Qingdu, didn't care, they patted their stomachs at the same time and walked out of the door comfortably.

After a full meal, Yang Zhao, who wanted to continue on his journey, was forced to follow Zhou Qingdui to find some work that could earn some silver taels at Zhou Qingdui's strong request.

It's a pity that this is not the town where Zhou Qingdui once lived, nor is it a small border town, where is there any work to help people work? Whether it's an inn or a restaurant, or a caravan. Most of them are not short of manpower. There was only one caravan from Huozhou, which was said to be from the Yang family, the first family from Huozhou, and there was a shortage of two people who were doing miscellaneous work for those Taoists.

Zhou Qingdui was still very happy, because this job only needs to be done for three days, and he can get some a lot of silver. But Yang Zhao, who was hiding in the alley and unwilling to go with Zhou Qingdui, was unwilling to live or die, so Zhou Qingdui had no choice but to give up.

The two of them stood in the alley, Zhou Qingdu's eyes were serious, staring straight at Yang Zhao's eyes, which made Yang Zhao uncomfortable to be stared at by this kind of eyes, sweating coldly, and turning his head.

Zhou Qingwan stared at it for a long time, and finally spoke: "Yang Zhao, you are honest, why don't you want to accompany me to do chores for the caravan of the Yang family?" Is it ......?"

At this time, Yang Zhao, who was stared at by Zhou Qingdu's murderous eyes, his body was already a little distorted, and he swallowed his saliva involuntarily.

"Could it be that you are the son-in-law of the Yang family, who secretly ran out for fear of being discovered?"

As soon as these words came out, Yang Zhao's body trembled, and he almost fell on the spot.

After Yang Zhao stabilized his figure, he pretended to be serious and said: "How is it possible?" Do you think I'm like one of those rich people from an ancient family? My family is just an ordinary family that can make a living, but I don't bother to do chores for other families. ”

Zhou Qingwan looked Yang Zhao up and down again, and after he really couldn't see that the guy in front of him looked like the son of a luxury family, he nodded and seemed to agree with Yang Zhao's words: "Also, which rich family can be like you?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Yang Zhao almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. However, he did not refute it.

At this time, Zhou Qingdui sighed helplessly and said, "What should I do now?" ”

Yang Zhao looked calm, thought about it in his mind, and seemed to suddenly think of an excellent method, and said: "Don't forget that we are cultivators, and cultivators naturally have ways for cultivators to earn money. ”

How do cultivators earn money?

These Zhou Qingdui have never heard of it.

So Zhou Qingwan hurriedly asked, "Do we cultivators have any special ways to make money?" ”

Yang Zhao seemed to have long been accustomed to Zhou Qingdui's "ignorance", and he was also used to pretending to be a "knowledgeable" person in front of the young man, and smiled mysteriously: "Do you know how to kill the spirit?"

Zhou Qingdui was naturally unclear and asked, "What is a spirit slayer?" ”

Yang Zhao continued: "Demons, like humans, are spiritual creatures born under the luck of heaven and earth. But the demon race is blessed with some spirituality that people do not have, and this spirituality is not wisdom, but the commonality given to them by God. Slashing the spirit is originally the name of the border monk for killing the demon race, but although most of the demon races in the world have been isolated by the human race in the Northern Wilderness Demon Domain, there are still some remnant demon species in the human realm, and most of these remaining demon beasts have returned to the human mountain gate under the domestication of the masters of the Dao Gate. But there are also some demon beasts that refuse to submit and hide in the mountains and forests, often coming out of the cholera side. Since then, the Slayer has appeared in the field of vision of the Inner Earth monks. Usually the tasks issued by the Shanmen sect and the family to the disciples to quell the rebellion, and after the disciples perform these tasks, the sect or the family will also issue corresponding rewards. ”

"And this kind of remnant demon species is especially the most severe in Duize Prefecture, and the least in the three prefectures of Tianqian, Kanshui and Genshan that border the Northern Desolate Demon Domain, and the reason is naturally related to the fact that a large number of masters among the Daomen monks often go to the border to sharpen. As for the other states, the reason why there are almost few demons is that the monks in these states are the most lethal in the two states of Thunder and Fire while the Dao Law is mysterious, and they often have the help of other states or two regions. Although Duize Prefecture borders the Lotus Western Regions, it is a pity that there is an extremely strange river in the middle, and the Buddhist monks seem to be a little taboo, and they hardly see monks coming. The Lu family in Dikun Prefecture has almost disappeared into seclusion and has never helped, and other sect families in Dikun Prefecture that are not as good as the Lu family are naturally reluctant to help. ”

"That's why Duize Prefecture has created such an embarrassing position, even if the Shen family has suppressed it a few times, but it seems to be because Duize Prefecture has excellent terrain and strong aura. For countless years, there are still fresh demon species blowing and rebirthing. After killing the demon beast, the monk can take out the origin of the demon beast's body, which is the demon pill. This kind of thing is also very beneficial to the cultivation of human monks, and often some demon pills of good demon beasts can also be sold for a lot of money. Therefore, in recent years, some chambers of commerce have successively opened the spirit slaying mission under this circumstance, this kind of spirit hunting mission that can not only sharpen cultivation but also earn money, has also influenced many foreign monks to hunt spirits in Duize Prefecture. But the premise is that the demon pill must be sold to the chamber of commerce that spreads the task, and the general chamber of commerce will not only give the reward that should be paid, but also give the monk the price of the demon pill. ”

Yang Zhao said a lot in a row, and he now knows very well about this kind of famous thing in the rivers and lakes!

Zhou Qingdui's eyes lit up after hearing this: "So the soul slaying task is very valuable?" ”

Yang Zhao smiled when he heard this, accustomed to the young man's greedy eyes, and said, "It depends on the difficulty of the task, let's first find out if there are any chambers of commerce in this city that are spreading the spirit hunting task." ”

With that, Zhou Qingwan nodded, and the two walked around the city side by side.

Zhou Qingdui had always followed Yang Zhao's steps, but he didn't realize that Yang Zhao seemed to have deliberately avoided the street of the inn where the Yang Family Chamber of Commerce was located.

The two wandered around the city for a while, and although they found many chambers of commerce, almost none of them spread the task of slaying spirits, so they had to continue to search.

At this time, Zhou Qingwan suddenly stopped in front of a fortune teller's stall.
