Chapter 222: Reason

The wind and sand in the Stone Valley blew on Song Jian's face, and it hurt faintly.

This place should have been a relatively good trading center, after all, it has the joint management of the Yuntian Sect and the Thousand Feather Sect, and has the stone trading as the basis, if it is managed well, it can become a relatively large trading city like Tarot City.

However, the wind and sand around the Rock Valley are too big, which has led to the development of this place for hundreds of years, and it is still only a small empty city, except for some foundries and foundry families who will come here, few people gather and trade here.

Song Jian took out a piece of animal skin and wrapped half of his face, in fact, many martial artists would do this, so it was also beneficial.

Song Jian took out the soul chasing stone, sensed Su Jianxin's position again, and then quietly touched it.

Along the Stone Valley, I didn't go far, and I could see a ruined city in the wind and sand, which was the Stone City.

The population of Stone City has always been small, and although there are many more warriors now, it is still unusually empty compared to this empty land of wind and sand.

Song Jian quietly touched Su Jianxin's position.

In the easternmost part of Stone City, Song Jian could already feel Su Jianxin's existence, but then Song Jian frowned, this time, not only Su Jianxin was alone, but there were also seven elders and twenty disciples of the Four Realms who came with him.

This power, if it was placed in normal times, Yun Tianzong would naturally not care, but after the battle of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley, Yun Tianzong had already lost more than half of its strength, and this time it still drew so much power to come here, I am afraid that it has a big idea.

Song Jian couldn't help but secretly regret in his heart, he knew that he should have come with Squeak, but at that time, Song Jian thought that Su Jianxin would stay in Yuntian Sect all the time, and he didn't want to take Squeak to the adventure. If he had known that in this barren stone city, with Squeak, Song Jian could rush in directly, and with Squeak, it would be very easy to kill a Su Jianxin.

"That's it, let's do it tonight. Jun Yuan, you must do a beautiful thing this time, and the most important thing is to see that it is a conflict between your young disciples, but don't involve our older generation. Now let's ...... Ay. The person who spoke was none other than Su Jianxin.

Seven hundred meters away, Song Jian sat quietly on top of a restaurant, listening to Su Jianxin teach each other.

Obviously, the person who was taught was Su Jianxin's proud disciple, Shi Junyuan. Today's Shi Junyuan is already a martial artist at the peak of the Four Levels Realm, and his status in Yuntian Sect has gradually become prominent. Coupled with Su Jianxin's intentional cultivation, Shi Junyuan's status is even higher.

I only heard Shi Junyuan say firmly: "Master, don't worry, it's just kidnapping a woman, no problem." ”

"Well, don't take it lightly, that girl's strength is not simple, not to mention her Yao family's background, her own strength alone is very strong. Also, after you catch her, don't act recklessly, let alone hurt her. Our Yuntian Sect only wants to survive this period safely now, and must not have a large-scale conflict with the Thousand Feather Sect. Su Jianxin explained earnestly.

Shi Junyuan took the order and went.

Song Jian nodded, knowing that things were really as he thought.

A few months ago, the strength of the Yuntian Sect and the Thousand Feather Sect was comparable, and even the strength of the Cloud Heaven Sect was a few points stronger than the Thousand Feather Sect, but now the strength of the Yuntian Sect is not as good as before, and in this case, it is naturally impossible to hide the Thousand Feather Sect.

It's just that the Thousand Feather Sect doesn't dare to judge how much the hidden strength of the Cloud Sky Sect has, of course, more importantly, the Thousand Feather Sect doesn't want to trigger a direct confrontation with the Cloud Sky Sect, in that case, it is the other sects that will benefit the most.

However, for the Thousand Feather Sect, they would not let go of this opportunity, so they definitely wanted to encroach on some spheres of influence.

The Stone Valley is a place where the Thousand Feather Sect is going to start.

The output of limestone is very large, so the price has not been high, and the limestone valley is under the common relationship between Yuntian Sect and Qianyu Sect, and the two have always been in a relationship of competition and cooperation, so the price of limestone has never been sold.

However, if all of the Stone Valley were controlled by the Thousand Feather Sect, then the situation would be different.

Although the output of limestone is large and the cost of collection is low, it is also very useful, after all, molds are indispensable for forging.

If this Stone Valley is managed by the Thousand Feather Sect's family, then the Stone in the Southern Separation Domain will be monopolized by the Thousand Feather Sect, and at that time, the price of the Stone will naturally be what the Thousand Feather Sect says.

If the Thousand Feather Sect monopolizes the Stone Valley, then the profit of the Stone will increase tenfold or even a hundred times. Moreover, even with a large-scale price increase, other organizations and forgers still have to buy Stone, because without Stone, weapons and equipment cannot be forged!

Song Jian could think of these things in an instant, and the people of the Thousand Feather Sect had already thought of it, so they must have made the decision to drive the Yuntian Sect out of the Stone Valley at this time.

At this time, in the Stone Valley, seven elders came from the Yuntian Sect, six elders from the Thousand Feather Sect, and in addition, thirty disciples from the Yuntian Sect and twenty disciples from the Thousand Feather Sect. Although it seems that there are more people from the Cloud Heaven Sect, in fact, the people from the Thousand Feather Sect are more confident, because they all know that the current Cloud Heaven Sect has been greatly injured. Although the top-level Supreme Elder had not been damaged, that is, it had not been damaged to the foundation, but within a few decades, it was not easy for the Cloud Heavenly Sect to recover its vitality.

These thoughts only flashed in Song Jian's mind, and he didn't think too much about it, after all, the most important thing now is to get the sealing crown.

Bowing his head and drinking the wine in his mouth, Song Jian paid a low-level Yuan Stone, wrapped the clothes on his body, put on a beast skin mask, and walked out.

"Master, you can wait for my good news with peace of mind, I'll go. Shi Junyuan said goodbye to Su Jianxin, and then strode away.

Song Jian sensed the location of Su Jianxin and Shi Junyuan, and hurried over.

"Hmm, damn it, how could this old man be so careful?" Song Jian stopped, his face was annoyed, he could feel that as soon as Su Jianxin and Shi Junyuan separated, he returned to the lair, where the remaining six Yuntian Sect elders were there, with Song Jian's current strength, if he went in, he would not be able to hunt Shi Junyuan at all.

"It seems that Su Jianxin and the others are also afraid of the assassination of the Thousand Feather Sect. Song Jian secretly guessed in his heart.

"Click...... Click...... Click......"

The sound of leather boots stepping on the sand sounded, and then more than a dozen middle-aged people who seemed to be loose, with deerskin covers on their faces, walked towards Song Jian.

Song Jian glanced at the person who was the leader, it was Shi Junyuan, but at this moment, Shi Junyuan only showed a pair of eyes, and it was not easy for ordinary people to recognize him.

Shi Junyuan looked at Song Jian, slightly puzzled, then waved his hand, took the others, and walked towards the west of the city. They didn't go far before the dozen or so people separated, but Song Jian knew that their final direction was towards Xicheng District.

Song Jian stared at the backs of Shi Junyuan and the others, thought for a while, and then slowly followed, now Su Jianxin will not be separated from the other six elders in a short time, and Song Jian has to look for other breakthroughs.

Fortunately, Song Jian's time is still a little rich now, so he doesn't have to rush in and take risks.

"Damn! that's so gloomy!" a swearing voice sounded in the distance.

"That's right! The Thousand Feather Sect would really be too domineering to do this. Is it easy for us to be foundries? They are doing the hardest and most tiring work, and now they continue to exploit us. Another voice then pandered.

"Hey, don't talk about it, I hope Yuntian Sect won't compromise this time. Otherwise, the price of the stone ...... "Ahh

Song Jian looked at the place where he was talking, and between them, three middle-aged men wearing animal skin armor and metal combat boots were walking towards here, all of them were not tall, but the muscles on their bodies were very plump.

Song Jian tested their cultivation, and it turned out that they were all beginner level cultivations of the Four Levels Realm.

There is no doubt that all three of them were foundries, and as can be seen from their clothing, the shoes of the foundry were made of special metal and animal skins, so that they could be burned and stepped on the bellows while casting.

Song Jian lowered his head and continued to follow Shi Junyuan's back slowly.

"Hey, little brother!" one of them took the initiative to call out to Song Jian.

Song Jian turned around and arched his hand slightly towards the three of them.

"Hey, little brother, you don't look like a foundry, what's the matter with you here?" asked a man whose hair was tied into small braids one by one, and he didn't know how much work it took to tie up his hair, but Song Jian could see that this person's hair had not been washed for at least ten days, and the little braids were all shriveled and warped.

Song Jian said in a hoarse voice: "I'm here to purchase the stone, and the family has recently lacked a batch of stone, so they ordered me to come and purchase it." ”

Hearing Song Jian's words, the big man with braided braids laughed, and said familiarly: "Then we are all in the same way, why don't we discuss it together?"

"This ......" Song Jian hesitated slightly.

The big man said: "Little brother, as soon as I look at your dress, I know that you have just arrived in Stone City this time. Hey, the current stone city is not as good as before, and the price of the stone has increased eighty times. ”

"Huh, it's so expensive?" Song Jian pretended to be surprised.

The big man with braided braids patted Song Jian on the shoulder and said, "Little brother, you don't know, some time ago, the people of the Thousand Feather Sect drove the miners of the Cloud Heaven Sect out of the Stone Valley, and now the entire Stone Valley is controlled by the Thousand Feather Sect. We had just returned from the procurement office of the Cloud Heaven Sect, and they said that they had no stock, so we had to go to the procurement office of the Thousand Feather Sect in the west of the city to buy it. Hey, this group of people, their appetite is also a little too big, and the price has increased eighty times at once. ”

The other two men also walked up together, greeted Song Jian, and went west of the city together.

The twisted braid said to Song Jian familiarly: "I think we will also form a purchase alliance this time, try to keep the price as low as possible, everyone gets together, and it is much easier to negotiate, little brother, what do you say?"

Since they were in the same direction, Song Jian did not refuse, nodded, and said, "Everything is up to Your Excellency." ”

A group of four people, facing the wind and sand, rushed towards the stone sales office of the Thousand Feather Sect in the west of the city.
