Chapter Twenty-Six: A Preliminary Exploration of the Outside of the Beast Palace
Zhou Yang felt it today, and Tiehu put his heart in his heart, and said the depression accumulated in his heart in one breath, and opened his mind to his senior brother without reservation.
Tiehu was also very moved. Zhou Yang was still a child when he came to Ziyuan Sect, it was Uncle Zhong and him who watched Zhou Yang grow day by day, he regarded Zhou Yang as his own brother, of course he had the responsibility to take care of him, and he did not allow others to hurt him.
"Little Yangzi, although you and my brother are still ants, but I believe in you, we will definitely become strong in the sky! Senior brother, I will do my best to help you succeed, whoever hinders your steps, whoever dares to move you, I will kill him if I risk my life!" Tiehu said emotionally.
"Senior brother!" Zhou Yang's eyes were a little moist.
"Alright, don't act like a. We're going to make it!"
"Yes, we will be strong!"
Two days later.
"Senior brother, I'll go to the city to have a look. Zhou Yang was going to Anping City to inquire about the situation and see the current situation.
"Go ahead, I'm keeping an eye here. βγ
"Red Tiger, don't run around, take a good look at Lingtian. Zhou Yang said to Chihu again, and explained with a gesture.
"Take him with you, and you can have a helper. β
"It's safer in the city than here, Chihu can help you watch it, you two brothers are also in one place, cultivate and cultivate feelings." Hehe!" Zhou Yang smiled at Tie Hu.
"Raise a bird, this guy has always looked at me unpleasantly, he ignores him, what's bullish?" Iron Tiger complained. After a long time, he didn't have too much dissatisfaction with the two brothers of Chihu, but Chihu has always ignored him and made him angry.
"Hehe, so you have to cultivate feelings! If you treat him well, he can be good to you, right?"
"I'll try. Tiehu said with a bitter face.
Deliberately bypassing the Lingtian that had been traded before, Zhou Yang came to the West Gate of Anping, and handed over a spirit stone depressedly, and then entered the city.
Today's Liberty Square Market is not the day when the market is open, and there are actually many stalls, and there is a lot of traffic.
Did you change the rules?
With doubts in his heart, he came to the booth of the shopkeeper Liang.
"It's not that the rules have changed, the cultivators in the city have begun to rush to buy materials, and some have even found my house, so I just put the stall out to do business. There was a stall set-up, and the other stall owners also came out. The shopkeeper Liang was happy, obviously the business was very good.
"Doesn't that mean the market is open every day?"
"Almost, the Blue Beast Palace did not intervene, and it is estimated that the market will open every day. β
"How's the surrounding city?"
"Only the teleportation array leading to Dingbei City remains, the rest are closed, and the news can't be transmitted. It seems that there are several larger cities in the north that are also making a lot of noise, and they are of different sizes. Liang shopkeeper said.
"Oh. How often does that beast tide usually occur? I remember that there was no beast tide in Tu Yan City!" Zhou Yang said curiously.
"How old are you? The average beast tide erupts once in forty or fifty years, the scale is not large, and it can withstand every time. The big beast tide should be once in a hundred years. We had a beast tide in Anping City thirty years ago, and according to past experience, it shouldn't be the time to break out, but it's not necessarily, who can tell the story of this demon beast. β
"No one can tell. By the way, Shopkeeper Liang, do you have something to ask for?" Zhou Yang nodded yes, but suddenly remembered something, and arched his hand to Shopkeeper Liang.
"You say. β
"I've been in Anping City for more than half a month, and every time I enter the city, I have to pay spirit stones. I don't care about the spirit stone, but it's too troublesome, I don't have an official identity, and it's not practical to stay here. I rented fifty acres of spiritual land, and I have settled in this city, can you be tired to give me a guarantee, and get a permanent resident certificate in the city, you can rest assured, I won't let you help in vain. With that, Zhou Yang took out twenty spirit stones and handed them to Shopkeeper Liang.
"We are friends, what are you doing!" The shopkeeper Liang is not hypocritical, he didn't take the spirit stone, Zhou Yang sells materials here, and he also wants to have a good relationship with Zhou Yang and form a regular customer.
"Don't you still have to find someone to help, if you don't take the spirit stone, isn't it difficult to do?"
"It's not a big deal, okay. Only then did the shopkeeper Liang take the spirit stone, and said: "This matter is jointly managed by the three major sects, and I have a friend in Tongzhou Commercial Bank, he should be able to handle it for you." When the time comes, I'll just give you a token. By the way, did you do it yourself?"'
"And my senior brother, this is the auspicious relationship of the two of them. Zhou Yang handed over a piece of paper and said, "By the way, Shopkeeper Liang, how many spirit stones do you need to get a permanent resident token?"
"As long as someone is a guarantee, five spirit stones per person. β
"Oh, then I'll give you another ten dollars. As he spoke, Zhou Yang took out ten more spirit stones.
"Okay brother, don't you look down on my brother, they all say that they are friends, don't worry, you can come to me in a few days." What the shopkeeper Liang said was also sincere, and put down the shelf to be commensurate with brothers, Zhou Yang was not good at giving it, and after talking about the situation in the surrounding cities for a while, he took his leave.
After leaving Liberty Square City, Zhou Yang wandered aimlessly around the West City, and finally stopped in front of the gate of a magnificent palace complex. On both sides of the gate are the statues of giant demon beasts, all of them are several feet tall, their heads are as big as a fight, their huge teeth and fangs, hideous and abnormal, and their appearance is very peculiar.
The plaque directly above the gate has three large characters: "Cangbeast Palace".
The three words of the penmanship are vigorous, the iron hook is silver, giving people a huge sense of shock, and they are unconsciously in awe, and they must be written by the masters.
The gatehouse is tall and a large palace in itself, imposing and admirable.
There are four huge pillars in front of the door that are as high as more than ten zhang, several people are embraced, there is a winding dragon on each top, the dragon is wound around the giant pillar from the bottom to the top, and finally the dragon head is poked out at the top, the dragon's mouth is wide open, and the dragon's horns are hideous.
"It really deserves to be a sect that is famous for raising spirit beasts!" Zhou Yang secretly praised.
The two red lacquered giant doors are seven or eight feet high, the knockers are in the shape of strange beasts, and there are corner doors on both sides. At this time, the gate is closed, and only the corner gate is open.
Looking inside, the palaces and pavilions were almost like a small city, and the roars of huge beasts came from the palace.
This is the sect second only to the three major factions, and it is also half the master of Xicheng, the Cang Beast Palace.
Zhou Yang watched from a distance, and felt that compared with this, Ziyuan Sect was a mountain village and the other was a big city.
In front of the gate of the Cang Beast Palace, from time to time, cultivators riding spirit beasts entered and exited from the corner gate. These cultivators were dressed in green robes, and their chests were embroidered with beast-shaped patterns, which were similar to the giant beast carvings at the door, and it seemed that this was the symbol of the Cangbeast Palace.
Zhou Yang also found that from time to time, carts full of spirit grass elixir entered the palace gate, and the cultivators who transported the spirit grass elixir were obviously not from the Cang Beast Palace, and these people had to show a pass token when they entered and exited, and the green-robed guards could only enter after checking them one by one.
"That person is ......" Zhou Yang suddenly found an acquaintance, who was the stall owner who bought his red madder, and he was naturally not a disciple of the Beast Palace.
Seeing this person, Zhou Yang already knew it in his heart.
The Blue Beast Palace will not buy the spiritual herbs and elixirs of retail investors, but will only buy them in large quantities. And these vendor stall owners are in the hands-on business, buying spiritual herbs and elixirs in Liberty Fang City, and then selling them to the Cangbeast Palace when they accumulate a certain amount.
Looking at the number of spiritual herbs and elixirs sent by the stall owner, there must be at least 200,000 catties. 200,000 catties, that's not tens of thousands of spirit stones!
Most of the ideas that Zhou Yang had just come up with were wiped out at once, and he couldn't do the business of tens of thousands of spirit stones. Still, the idea kept spinning in my head.
He didn't stay any longer, turned around and left the gate of the Blue Beast Palace.
The streets near the Cangbeast Palace are obviously much wider than those in Liberty Square City, and the number and scale of shops on both sides of the street are also much larger than those in Liberty Square City. Tea houses, wine shops, artisan shops and even green houses are all there, and it is very lively.
Zhou Yang passed by a craftsman shop called "Qidao Pavilion", and couldn't help but stop, from the name of the shop, he knew that this was a shop for refining weapons.
He stared at the three words of Qidao Pavilion for a while, but he thought about the pill in his heart. After turning a few streets before, I didn't find a shop specializing in selling pills, so it seems that the alchemist did not open a shop on his own. The refiner, on the other hand, is often self-produced and sold, that is, the front shop and the back shop.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yang stepped into the Qidao Pavilion.
The faΓ§ade of this store is not large, but when you walk in, you find that the shop is very deep, about ten zhang longitudinally. The two sides of the room are filled with all kinds of ritual utensils, from lower grade to upper grade, from knives, swords, drums, bells to shields, rings, furnaces, tripods, and even the tatsukyu placed in the quiet room.
Walking into the depths of the store, Zhou Yang was attracted by a magic weapon. The shape of this thing is like a flag, the flag is three feet long, the flag is blue, the texture is ominous, and the flag is inlaid with jade pieces.
"Purple jade flag, the best magic weapon!" Zhou Yang's eyes were blazing. Although the function of this artifact is not explained, it must be extraordinary.
He had seen a top-grade magic weapon in Ziyuan Sect, but it was the first time he had seen a top-grade magic weapon.
At this time, the guy came up to greet Zhou Yang and asked him what kind of magic weapon he needed. In fact, Zhou Yang didn't mean not to buy it, he just wanted to open his eyes, and at present, a few of his magic weapons were enough. Although he has some spirit stones on his body, he still has to pay two months of mortal labor, and if he buys three months of food, there is not much left.
But since you're here, if you don't buy anything and it doesn't look good on your face, then choose one that is cheap and practical.
Zhou Yang thought about it and walked in the direction of placing the magic shield.
There are magic shields here from the lower grade to the upper grade, but there is no superb magic shield. Zhou Yang is the most suitable to use the Yuan Shield now, but he is not far from the Lingtai Realm, and it is not cost-effective to buy the Yuan Shield again.
After a moment, he took a fancy to a round magic shield, the level was a medium-grade spirit shield, the size of a palm, and the material was a third-level high-level demon beast iron-backed mountain beaver skin. Infused with Yuan Force or spiritual power, this shield can cover the whole body, and can resist the full force of the cultivators in the middle stage of the Spirit Platform, and the defense power against the early stage of the Spirit Platform is much larger. This shield is not cheap, it costs a hundred first-grade spirit stones.
Now Zhou Yang is only one step away from the peak of Yuan, if he wants to fight against the early stage cultivators of the Lingtai, he still has more than enough heart and not enough strength. Although this shield requires spiritual power to exert its full power, it can also exert at least half of its defensive power with Yuan power, and it can protect itself somewhat when encountering a cultivator in the early stage of the spiritual platform.
