After Zhao Rong and Liu Sanbian got off the ship, they went to Qingfengju's business in Zangzhoupu.

When he walked out, Zhao Rong had an extra silk bag embroidered with a high-rise building pattern in his hand, which contained fifteen lower-grade spirit stones returned by Qingfengju, which was almost half of the boat fare.

As far as Zhao Rong knows, on the mountain, spirit stones are the most circulating currency, a high-grade spirit stone is equivalent to a hundred medium-grade spirit stones, and a medium-grade spirit stone is equivalent to a hundred lower-grade spirit stones, as for whether there are higher-grade spirit stones, Zhao Rong does not know.

However, Zhao Rong actually didn't have much thirst for spirit stones now.

First, he hadn't officially stepped into the path of cultivation yet, so he didn't need any cultivation resources.

Second, he is indifferent to money after all, and thinks that as long as this thing is enough, of course, he has not been beaten by society in his previous life, otherwise he will know how difficult it is to achieve this "enough".

Third, he found that the poems that entered the product seemed to be very valuable in the mountains, and they were still priceless, and thanks to his former hobby of ancient literature, he still had a lot of such poems in his mind......

Zhao Rong shook the money bag in his hand, jingled, looked back at the business, the shopkeeper and the steward were busy, and reluctantly comforted the guests with a smile and returned the fare.

Zhao Rong sighed, I really don't want to take this spirit stone, why don't I give it to you, add some more, and you take me to Duyou City?

"Where are the three brothers going? The younger brother is going to Duyou City, but now it seems that he can only hurry down the mountain, and he doesn't know that he can only arrive in the Year of the Monkey. ”

"Great Wei. ”

Liu San's words were concise and to the point, his expression was flat, he didn't have the same sorrow as Zhao Rong, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry to go to the place called Da Wei.

Liu Sanbian glanced at Zhao Rong's expression, thought about it, and took Zhao Rong to a trading house to buy a map of the mountains and rivers in the north of Wangque Zhou.

Zhao Rong looked at the dense place names on the map, and was quite amazed, there were no less than a hundred secular dynasties alone, not to mention those famous mountains and rivers, the records were extremely detailed.

"Who drew this map, and how much effort does it take to make it so detailed?"

Liu Sanbian stared at a certain place on the map and did not move away.

"This is copied from the Xuanding. ”

Zhao Rong raised his eyebrows, Xuan Ding?

Suddenly, he remembered something.

There is such a line on the "Xuanhuang Chronicle" that he turned over.

"Xuan collects the soldiers of all races, the gold of Jiumu, casts Jiuding, like Jiuzhou, Zhenshan River. ”

In that year, Emperor Xuan took the Xuanhuang people to the top, collected the divine soldiers of the ten thousand tribes and the metal from Jiuzhou, and cast nine big tripods, one for each continent, to suppress the luck of mountains and rivers.

So Jiuding also drew a map of Jiuzhou?

"Wouldn't the map of mountains and rivers drawn tens of thousands of years ago become obsolete now?"

For such a long time, it is estimated that the fields have long been in the sea.

"Huh?"

Liu Sanbian looked up at Zhao Rong, he didn't expect him to ask this.

The corners of Liu Sanbian's mouth were raised, and his face became fierce, Zhao Rong knew that he was laughing, but because of his appearance, he looked very crazy, but Zhao Rong got along for a long time, and he got used to it, but he still thought that Brother Sanbian was very cute.

Who said that the face has a heart, my three changes brother is just the opposite.

"Childe's problem ......"

"Hey, how many times have you said don't call me son, just call me brother, or Ziyu. ”

Liu Sanbian shouted a little twisted, brother.

"I haven't seen Xuanding in this continent, because almost no one in Wangque Continent except for the Tianya Sword Pavilion knows where this Terran heavy weapon is. ”

"However, I heard that the map of Jiuzhou recorded on the Xuanding is not immutable, but will change with the mountains and rivers, and evolve by itself with the passage of time. ”

"At present, the maps of Wangque Continent circulating on the mountain are all reduced versions, which are regularly changed and published by the Tianya Sword Pavilion. ”

Zhao Rong nodded as if he had understood.

Liu Sanbian lowered his head again and looked for a while, and pointed with his finger.

"We are in the country of Zhishui, separated from Duyou City by more than a dozen dynastic countries, and because the Anling country is blocked by the Sikou Mansion, it is estimated that it will not be able to pass, and it will need to be detoured, and it is a distance of several more countries, if it is simply by foot power or horses, even if you take the nearest road, it will take no less than five years for my brother to arrive. ”

Zhao Rong's eyelids jumped when he heard this, good guy, this daylily is cold, it is better to wait for the blockade to be lifted, the traffic on the mountain is restored, and then take a boat to Duyou City, but I heard the people of Qingfengju say that it is estimated that it will take more than half a year for the blockade to be lifted.

It turns out that ancient people rarely went far away, this has to travel far away, it is estimated that half of their lives are on the road, if they encounter a war and chaos again, eighty percent can not even go home.

"But ......," Liu Sanbian's finger tapped at a blue spot on the map.

"But what?"

"But my brother is lucky, you see here, there is just a big desecration that crosses Wangque from south to north, you just need to go here, board a big ship, and go down the river, the speed can be dozens of times faster than ordinary horses, and it will take less than a month to reach the Duyou City at the mouth of the sea. ”

"We're a few countries away from it, but it's fast, mostly across the border. ”

"Is it just me to board the ship alone, don't the three brothers get on the boat together?" Zhao Rong was curious.

"Between the water country and the Great Blasphemy, I can walk with my brother, but I will reach the Great Wei halfway. ”

Liu Sanbian helped Zhao Rong mark some points that should be paid attention to on the map of mountains and rivers, and then closed the map and handed it to Zhao Rong.

Zhao Rong nodded and took it, put it in the bookcase, and calculated it a few times in his heart, this trip is about two or three months away, although it is not as fast as the mountain ferry, but it is already the most convenient way under the current situation.

After setting the next itinerary, the two discussed having lunch in Zangzhoupu and then set off immediately, not staying here, and striving to rush to the nearest mountain city to Zangzhoupu before dark.

Zhao Rong took Liu Sanbian to buy some paper, ink and books, and replenished the bookbox.

At this time, the two of them were walking down the street of Zangzhoupu, ready to find a place to eat.

Because of the large number of ferries staying, there are a lot of monks on the mountain gathered in Zangzhoupu, and the streets are very lively, and there are even many people who set up stalls, selling some pills, classics, or gadgets of unknown origin.

Suddenly, Liu Sanbian turned his head to look back.

Not far behind, a sneaky figure shrank in fright, hurriedly squatted next to a stall, looked left and right, and "seriously" selected the objects on the stall.

Seeing this, Zhao Rong turned his head and looked at the street behind him, but he didn't see anything abnormal, so he looked at his companion next to him in confusion.

Liu San turned his head around, glanced at Zhao Rong with a strange expression, thought about it, and still didn't say anything.

After that, the two found a restaurant that looked like they were not low-grade, and ordered a table of wine and food, this time it was Zhao Rong who rushed to treat him, and glanced at the recipe, which probably cost two lower grade spirit stones, and this was only the first two pages of the recipe.

Zhao Rong was a little surprised, eating on the mountain is so expensive?

In fact, the monk has already opened the valley after Fuyao Realm, but there are still many mountain people who maintain the habit of eating, and the ferry where Zhao Rong was before also provided three meals a day.

In addition to the fact that some of the ingredients of the immortals on the mountain are quite subtle, and the delicacies made can benefit the monk's cultivation, but also because of the long avenue, when the monk's many mortal desires begin to fade, the desire for the tongue is a rare sense that can be maintained for a long time.

This also adds a touch of fireworks to the long road of cultivating the truth.

Isn't this a one-sided statement, because it belongs to the kind of monks who worship Taoism, and even the more extreme way of cultivating Taishang's ungrateful cultivation is only the avenue of a small number of people on the mountain.

There are thousands of avenues, and the battle of the hundred schools of thought that swept the Xuanhuang cultivation realm has given the mountain monks who have just entered the cultivation more choices.

Although there is a boundary between the mountains and the mountains, the two are very involved.

You can be a Mohist ranger who acts chivalrally and fights righteousness, you can be a high-spirited Confucian and actively enter the WTO, you can join the vertical and horizontal family, and play the mortal kingdoms, you can return to the blessed land of the Lingshan Mountain, become a pure and inactive Taoist, and be born to cultivate immortals; you can also be like many mountain people, watching the sons of a hundred schools of thought coldly, only following their own heart and cultivating the Tao, and making choices as they want.

The avenue shouldn't be so small.

Zhao Rong rinsed his mouth with tea, tasted the fairy food served by the beautiful maid, and felt that the dishes were not much better than the dishes made by the chef of the Duke of Jingnan's Mansion, and there was less oil and water.

He glanced at the dishes on the table, very good, the two spirit stones are gone, this is a meal.

However, it was not in vain to come here to eat, at least I inquired about what happened to Anling Kingdom, which made Si Kou Mansion so serious and blocked the surrounding countries.

In the restaurant, after tea and dinner, many guests discussed in full swing.

"The Zhao family of Kuixiang County in Anling Country not only has children as ministers in the temples of many countries for generations, but also half of the real estate in the Xianjia Ferry City in Anling Country is theirs. But such a wang clan was washed by the blood of the big demon overnight, and there was no one left in the whole clan, and the blood flowed like a river. ”

"Hey, it's really ruthless, I heard that the big demon who committed the crime seems to have a cultivation of the Star Picking Realm, it's really fake, where did it come from?"

"Heh, I see more than that, like a monk in the Jindan Realm, the Zhao Mansion is not nothing, but it still has no power to fight back, and it was wiped out by that animal, I estimate that there should be a god. ”

"Avatar!"

"Anyway, I remember that a few years ago, there was also a destruction in the southwest of Wangque, and it seems that the surname is Zhao, but that time I heard that it seemed to be an enemy looking for revenge, why didn't Si Koufu take care of it that time, but this time it was so popular?"

"A few years ago, there was a kid from the Zhao clan of Anling Kingdom who was sent to the Sword Pavilion to practice, did you forget? I heard that he mixed well in it, and this time I heard that he happened to come back ......"

"Oh, I remember, you mean that ......"

Zhao Rong pricked up his ears and listened to the "whispered" discussion of the people at the table next to him, and roughly sketched out the original situation in his heart, sighed, and mourned for a while for his distant relatives.

Not long ago, on a certain ferry, there was a powerless scholar who was stunned, and he staged a heroic drama to save the beauty, and saved a charming little fox demon under the hand of the Lord of Yama in Sikou Mansion, and then the little fox demon saw that the appearance of the engong was mediocre, and only hurriedly left a sentence "The concubine will definitely be a cow and a horse to repay the son" and ran away, and finally left the scholar alone in the same place and was sad.

Zhao Rong almost squirted out the rice in his mouth when he heard this, what did this be? That second stunned man and blood Qi Fang Gang didn't mention it for the time being, what the hell is "Engong's appearance is mediocre"? Where is this son's appearance mediocre!

Okay, a little, but this son has a good temperament......

The corners of Zhao Rong's mouth twitched and listened to the laughter of the people at the table next to him, shook his head, glanced at Liu Sanchang embarrassedly but without leaving a trace, and saw him eating the dishes as usual, as if he hadn't heard anything, he was relieved and didn't think about it.

But at this very moment.

Suddenly, a charming maid walked over, holding a bottle of wine that felt expensive just by looking at the bottle, put it next to Zhao Rong's hand, slowly gave a blessing, and said softly:

"There was a distinguished guest there who gave Gongzi a bottle of drunken sword fairy, and the slave maid sent it, hoping that Gongzi would not refuse. ”

Zhao Rong and the others looked in the direction indicated by the maid, and in the corner not far away, a bearded man drinking alone.

Zhao Rong took a closer look and had some impressions that when he rescued "Su Da Huang" on the ferry in the morning, he seemed to be in the crowd around him, and he seemed to be drinking with a wine gourd in his hand at that time, so he was slightly impressed by him.

The bearded man grinned and raised the wine jug when he saw Zhao Rong and Liu Sanchang.

Zhao Rong couldn't help but look at the pot, before he looked at the pot, he had seen the Drunken Sword Immortal with a very high price on the recipe.

At this time, Liu Sanbian had already mentioned it with a smile and filled himself and Zhao Rong.

The trio raised their glasses.

Drink without words.

The joy of life lies in knowing each other,

When you meet, you have wine and pour.
