Chapter 50: Placing the Demons
"You turned out to be the prince of Chechi?" Zhang Yuan couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard this, but he also had doubts in his heart, and then asked: "Since you are the prince of Che Chi Kingdom, why do you have to flee with the demons, can't the king of Che Chi Kingdom even protect his own son?" β
Chang Xiu's expression was stiff, "After the three masters were killed, Che Chiguo was controlled by the monks, and my father was set aside, even if he wanted to protect me, he couldn't protect me." β
Zhang Yuan didn't ask again, Changxiu's identity didn't matter to him, he was thinking about how to place them now.
The original plan was to bring them back to Lion Camel Ridge, use the resources of Lion Camel Ridge, and cultivate them into Taoist soldiers for their own use.
But after thinking about it, he changed his mind again.
Lion Camel Ridge is a bloody place, with a strong demonic aura, and if they are contaminated, the gains outweigh the losses.
Besides, among them, there are several Terran monks, which is not in line with Lion Camel Mountain.
After thinking about it, Zhang Yuan thought of a place for them to go.
Demon City!
The demon market is a place to do business, the Terran monks and demons are mixed, and they are protected by the Lion Camel Ridge and the Bamboo Sect, whether it is the demon clan or the Terran monks, they dare not easily make trouble in the demon market.
What's more, the formation is arranged in the Jade True Demon City, and the spiritual energy in it is dense, which is extremely beneficial to the next cultivation of Changxiu and others.
"Changxiu, it's not safe to stay here, you follow me to Jade True Demon City." Zhang Yuan said.
"Jade True Demon City?" Chang Xiu was stunned when he heard this, "How can that place accommodate those of us who are on the run?" β
Zhang Yuan smiled slightly, in order to dispel Changxiu's doubts, he directly told the truth, "You don't know, the organizer of the demon city is the Bamboo Sect of the Lion Camel Ridge and the Human Race, I will inform the demon soldiers stationed in the Jade Demon City in the Lion Camel Ridge, with the protection of these two powerful forces, no one dares to harm you." β
"We're up to you." Changxiu put his mind at ease and accepted Zhang Yuan's arrangement.
Yuzhen Demon City, Chang Xiu has heard of it, and indeed no one dares to make trouble there, but I don't know that this demon city is actually jointly run by Shihuling and the Bamboo Sect, and for a while, I sighed a little more in my heart.
Since Changxiu agreed to Zhang Yuan's arrangement, the others naturally had no opinion.
"Chang Xiu, during his stay in Jade True Demon City, you will be responsible for managing them, as for Changjun, I will take him back to Lion Camel Ridge and follow me."
The reason why Zhang Yuan has this arrangement is due to many considerations.
First, Changjun is extremely talented, he is already a fifth-order demon at a young age, and there are signs of breaking through to the sixth level, he wants to take it with him to train and do things for himself at the same time.
The second is to bring Changjun with him, which is also a constraint to Changxiu and others.
For Zhang Yuan's arrangement, Chang Xiu and the others did not dare to object, but Chang Jun was overjoyed, at this moment, facing Zhang Yuan, who was lower than his rank, Chang Jun's heart was full of awe.
In Changjun's view, this person's body is full of infinite heavenly luck.
"Pack your things and come with me."
After speaking, Zhang Yuan threw out several talismans to build a forbidden formation to imprison everyone's breath, so as not to be discovered by the pursuers on the way to the demon city.
β¦
Jade True Demon City.
Zhang Yuan temporarily placed everyone in the military camp, and then took Changxiu to find the tiger demon.
This tiger demon is a sixth-order demon, and it is the manager of the Lion Camel Ridge stationed in the Jade True Demon City, and there is still a seventh-order demon and a big demon on it.
"Tiger Leader, please take me to meet Lord Chi Li, I have something to discuss with him."
The red demon that Zhang Yuan said was the big demon stationed in Yuzhen Demon City in Lion Camel Mountain.
All the affairs of the Jade True Demon City are up to him.
As for the garrison of the Bamboo Sect, it is also necessary to act according to his eyes.
Zhang Yuan attached great importance to his first batch of forces and needed to make careful arrangements.
For Zhang Yuan's request, the tiger demon naturally would not object, after all, his identity was there.
Although his rank is much higher than Zhang Yuan, he has the right to speak on Lion Camel Ridge, and he is tied to ten of them, which is not as good as others.
Soon, Zhang Yuan, under the guidance of the tiger demon, came to Chi Xuan's residence.
At this moment, he looks very much like an old man with a fairy wind and bones, holding a cup of tea in his hand and tasting it carefully, looking very self-contained.
When he saw Zhang Yuan, he didn't get up to greet him.
Even if Zhang Yuan is popular in Lion Camel Ridge, with his identity, he has not yet reached the point where he wants to get up to greet him.
However, Chi Qian personally poured Zhang Yuan a cup of tea.
This move is enough to show that he attaches great importance to Zhang Yuan.
"Is there any interest in tasting the spiritual tea brewed by the old man?" Chi Qian looked at Zhang Yuan with a smile.
Stationed in the Jade True Demon City for hundreds of years, Chi Qi has already cultivated his emotions, restrained his edge, and is by no means like the demon on the Lion Camel Ridge in appearance and temperament.
However, the powerful demonic power that faintly burst out from his body made anyone standing in front of him dare not make the slightest mistake.
After all, a monster of the Great Demon level is already a golden immortal equivalent to the Immortal Dao.
Zhang Yuan was not polite, sat on the stone bench in front of Chi Li, picked up the teacup made of jade, first tasted it a little, and then drank it all in one gulp, "It is really a blessing to be able to taste a cup of tea made by Lord Chi Qi himself." β
Chi Li laughed when he heard this, "The total drill wind has been said, it's just a cup of tea." As he spoke, Chi Qian poured tea for Zhang Yuan again, raised his eyes and asked, "What is the matter with the total drill wind and returning?" β
"The last time I came, I was afraid of disturbing the adult's Qing Xiu, so I didn't come to visit, but this time when I came back, I had something to ask Lord Chi for something." Zhang Yuan said with a serious face.
"Please talk about the total drill wind." Chi said in a calm tone.
Zhang Yuan stretched out his hand and pointed at Chang Xiu, "This person's name is Chang Xiu, he is the door of the three demon immortals of Che Chi Kingdom, Hulu, Lu and Yang, after the death of the three demon immortals, most of the men were killed, Chang Xiu led more than 30 demons to flee in all directions, and happened to be met by me, because of sympathy for their suffering, so I want to find a way to live for them, think about it, only Lord Chi is the safest here." β
Zhang Yuan knew that the identities of Changxiu and the others could not be concealed for a long time, so he said truthfully.
"Since you are from the Demon Immortal Sect, you naturally want to help each other." Chi Li said happily, "I don't know what the old man wants the old man to do?" β
Seeing that Chi Ling had agreed, Zhang Yuan's hanging heart fell, and said: "Lord Chi Ling is so righteous, I really admire it, I heard that Shihuling operates more than ten stores in Yuzhen Demon City, I don't know if Lord Chi Ling can give them a faΓ§ade to operate, so that they can have an income to support themselves." β
"It's a trifle." Chi Xuan turned his eyes to look at the tiger demon, "Big Tiger, have you heard what the total drill wind said?" β
"Turn around, my subordinates have heard clearly." The tiger demon hurriedly responded.
"Now that you have heard clearly, you will choose a store and give it to them to operate, and you will take good care of them in the future." Chi Xuan explained.
"Don't worry, the leader, the subordinates will definitely do it."
Seeing that Chi Qian explained so carefully, Zhang Yuan hurriedly got up and gave a salute to Chi Li, "Your Excellency is so bothered, I will give your Excellency a salute for those poor monks of Sanqingguan." β
Although Zhang Yuan made such an action, his tone and expression were very calm.
This is what he did on purpose.
He must not let Chi Xuan perceive his true intentions and his relationship with the Sanqing Audience Demon.
In Shihuoling, cultivating one's own forces in private is not allowed by the rules.
Although, many high-level demons are cultivating forces that are loyal to themselves, but they can only do so in secret.
Chi Qian still smiled calmly, "The total drill wind is too polite." β
"Lord Chi takes care of him so much, I think those down-and-out people must have no valuable gifts in return, and when I return to Lion Camel Ridge, I will definitely report the situation of Jade True Demon City to the Great King, and the management skills of the Lord are impressive."
Zhang Yuan's words have been said very clearly.
That is, when he returned to Lion Camel Ridge, he would definitely say good things for Chi Lion.
Hearing Zhang Yuan's words, Chi Li finally got up, and said with a pleasant face: "The total drill style is quite trusted and reused by the king, and what he said will definitely enter the ears of the king, you can have this heart, the old man is very grateful." β
Chi Li's words were also very measured.
not only maintained his identity, but also expressed his gratitude in his heart, and he did it just right.
As the supreme leader stationed in Jade True Demon City, he has magic weapons and cultivation resources.
Ordinary magic weapons, he can't look down on them at all.
What he cared about was his identity as the supreme leader stationed in Jade True Demon City.
After all, he is not the only big demon on Lion Camel Ridge, once he annoys the green-haired lion monster, he will be replaced in minutes.
When the time comes, if you want to reap the benefits like now, there will be no door.
And after returning to Lion Camel Ridge, he will be hidden among tens of thousands of monsters, and there will be no more scenery today.
Zhang Yuan naturally understood Chi Li's thoughts and knew what he valued most, so although he asked him for help this time, he didn't bring any gifts.
The magic weapon that is almost almost red is not looked down on, and the good magic weapon Zhang Yuan will naturally not give it to him.
As for his own identity, Zhang Yuan believes that although Chi Li has always been very measured, he also knows the powerful relationship.
If he really returned to Lion Camel Ridge and said bad things, it was really possible for the blue-haired lion monster to change the red lion.
After all, as long as Zhang Yuan wants to, he will definitely be able to find the problem of Chi Xuan, at least using public power for personal gain is a sure thing.
Seeing that the big demon level Chi Qi was quite polite to Zhang Yuan, Chang Xiu had even more awe for Zhang Yuan in his heart.
"My lord is busy with official business, so I won't bother, so I'll leave."
"Always drill the wind and go well!"
After Chi Xuan finished speaking, he beckoned to the tiger demon, and then whispered a few words.
The tiger demon nodded again and again, and then caught up with Zhang Yuan.
Out of Chi Li's residence, the tiger demon took Zhang Yuan and Changxiu to a bustling street.
"Master Drill Wind, this place is called Thirteen Shops Street, there are thirteen big shops on the street, and every family is doing a prosperous business."
Zhang Yuan nodded, he had been to Thirteen Shops a few days ago, and knew that what the tiger demon said was true.
"The leader of the Red Pavilion said that it is very hard to run the storefront, and the monks of Sanqingguan have no experience in running the street, so the leader of the Red Sect plans to let the monks of Sanqingguan manage this street."
"Oh?"
The tiger demon's words surprised Zhang Yuan.
Managing the demon city, that is the power of the demon on the lion camel ridge, and now, Chi Qian actually handed over the most prosperous street in the demon city to Chang Xiu and others to manage.
Chi Zhen really gave enough face.
Of course, this can also be seen as an exchange, an exchange of interests.
has been operating the Jade True Demon City for hundreds of years, and this red ritter has long become an old fritter who plays with human relationships.
"Master Drill Wind, the annual management fee paid by the thirteen facades is a family of two thousand spirit stones, a total of 26,000 spirit stones, and half of the spirit stones collected by Sanqingguan are handed over to Shihuoling, and half are used for daily expenses."
Zhang Yuan nodded again.
Thirty-two people, more than 10,000 spirit stones, enough for daily expenses.
"As for the place where the monk of Sanqingguan lives, it is the three-story stone building, do you want to take a look?"
"Please lead the way!"
Soon, the three of them entered the stone building.
This is a stone building located at the southernmost end of Shisanpu Street, with dozens of rooms, and a small courtyard planted with various colors of spiritual grass.
Zhang Yuan just glanced at it casually, and then said, "Changxiu, go and call all your people!" β
Then he said to the tiger demon: "The tiger leader is busy with affairs, so I don't have to accompany them for a long time, I will explain a few words to them and go back to Lion Camel Ridge, and I won't go to say goodbye to Lord Chi before leaving, please convey my gratitude." β
"Don't worry, Lord Drillwind, I will definitely tell you, and I will leave."
After speaking, the tiger demon left in a hurry.
As the leader in charge of the management of the demon city, the tiger demon does have a lot to do.
He would never dare to let something happen to the demon city, otherwise he would definitely be returned to Lion Camel Ridge by Chi Xuan.
Soon after, Changxiu came to the small courtyard with the Sanqing audience.
On the way, Changxiu must have told everyone what he had seen and heard, and when he saw Zhang Yuan, the look on their faces was even more awe-inspiring.
"Changxiu told you everything, right?" Zhang Yuan asked knowingly.
"I said it back to my lordship." Everyone said in unison.
"In the future, this thirteen-paved street will be managed by you, and you must fulfill your duties and not disrupt order."
"More than 10,000 spirit stones a year, after daily expenses, there is still some left, and when you encounter good cultivation resources, you can buy some."
"Here, Chang Xiu is your leader, and there are Dahu and Chi Xuan and others above him, you must obey their orders, in short, you can't cause trouble for me, let alone reveal the true relationship between us, so as not to cause trouble and get into trouble, understand?" Zhang Yuan said with a serious face.
"Understood."
The crowd responded in unison.
"With the protection of the Lion Camel Ridge and the Bamboo Sect, even if the monks of Che Chi Kingdom find out your whereabouts, they will not dare to come to the door, but it is possible to wait outside the Demon City, so you must stay in the Demon City and listen to my call when the time comes."
"Also, there must be no slack in cultivation, I will teach you the inheritance of the Three Qingguan, the Tao Art of War, master this technique, when you fight in a group, your strength will be greatly improved."
Next, Zhang Yuan carefully taught the cultivation method of the Taoist Art of War [Tianlongwei].
Although these people were all from the Sanqing Sect, they had never cultivated [Tianlongwei], and they only knew that it was an extremely difficult technique to comprehend.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Yuan only glanced at it a few times, and he comprehended it so thoroughly, which made Chang Xiu Changjun and others admire Zhang Yuan.
Taught everyone [Tianlongwei], made some more requests, and then, Zhang Yuan looked at Changjun.
"Changjun, we should go, but you can't just leave the demon city, it's not safe for you, I'll take you to a place first."
