That night, there were guests who came to visit, it was Zhou Ziping who I met when I rented a house and Captain Liu who I met on the street today, Xie Xiaohong didn't like to socialize, so she practiced indoors, and Zhu Youdao came out to meet the guests alone.

Seeing Zhu Youdao, Zhou Ziping was exquisite, and smiled before he said anything: "Zhu Daoyou, it's really clumsy to be in the bottom, it turns out that Mrs. Zun is a master of foundation building, and she is sloppy!"

Zhu Youdao said with a smile: "Be polite, Neiko is cultivating in the inner room, it is inconvenient to meet guests, don't be surprised by the two of you!"

Where do they dare to blame the foundation monks?

Zhou Ziping said: "I already know what happened in the market today, Zhu Daoyou and Mrs. Zun please take care of it, my brother-in-law and I are specially here to ask for guilt!"

Only then did Zhu Youdao know that Captain Liu was this person's brother-in-law. He smiled and said: "The matter has passed, so there is no need to mention it again, not to mention that we are also very satisfied with Liu Daoyou's disposal!"

Zhou Ziping said: "That's good, that's good! Brother-in-law, don't you have something to give to Zhu Daoyou?"

Liu Changsong hurriedly presented a token and said: "Zhu Daoyou, this is the order to cross the river, and the two of you came to Zhenjiang City, presumably waiting to take the ferry to Yongzhou." But now there are too many people going to Yongzhou, most of the ferry tickets have been booked by major forces, and a small number of mobile ferry tickets have also been sold. Our brother still has a little power in this city, so he has a few orders to cross the river. With this order, Daoyou and Mrs. Zun can board the ship without a ticket, saving the time of waiting for a ticket. ”

Zhu Youdao was overjoyed in his heart, this was exactly what he urgently needed at the moment! He knew that the other party was seeing Xie Xiaohong as the face of the foundation building monk, so he hurriedly took the token and thanked him repeatedly.

The three of them entered the room, Zhu Youdao boiled a pot of tea, and the three of them chatted from all over the world.

Zhou Ziping is a member of the Zhou family, and because of his good ability, he was sent to Zhenjiang City to manage the affairs of the city. Liu Changsong is Zhou Ziping's brother-in-law, and he is the son-in-law of the Zhou family, so he can receive the duty of inspecting the Zhenjiang City market.

Zhou and Liu are side branches of the Zhou family, and their status in the family is not high, so they actively befriended Zhu Youdao.

All three of them were interested in making friends, and after a while, they became brothers.

Zhu Youdao found an opportunity and said: "The two eldest brothers, the younger brother has an elder who went to Yongzhou a few years ago and has not returned yet, and the family is very worried, so he sent my husband and wife to look for it." I want to know about the situation in Yongzhou in advance, I wonder if you can tell me?"

Zhou Ziping said: "This matter is simple, others don't know much about the situation in Yongzhou, but our Yunzhou and Yongzhou are next to each other, and the Zhou family has business dealings with that side, so we have been keeping an eye on ......."

An hour later, Zhou Ziping and Liu Changsong said goodbye, and Zhu Youdao sat alone in the room and pondered.

From Zhou Ziping's mouth, he knew the general situation of Yongzhou.

Yongzhou is different from Yunzhou, Yunzhou is the dominant Zhou family in Vientiane City, and other families and sects are surviving in the shadow of the Zhou family.

And Yongzhou is more prosperous and wealthy than Yunzhou, and the production of Xiuzhen resources is also more abundant, so such a territory is naturally not something that any one can monopolize.

There are three clans and one clan in Yongzhou who are in charge, namely the Cloud Sword Sect, the Xuanling Sect, the Royal Beast Sect and the Ye Family, and any of these three clans is not much weaker than the Yunzhou Zhou family.

As for the grandfather and father who have not returned so far, Zhu Youdao also has some speculations, and learned from Zhou Ziping that each of the three clans and one clan in Yongzhou will jointly hold a large-scale cultivation event, which will be held for a month, so countless forces have gathered here, and large and small scattered cultivators and traders have also come from everywhere, wanting to gain something at the meeting.

Presumably, Zhu Yuanchang's father and son also stayed in Yongzhou for a while because of this, after all, under such a grand event, it is difficult to attract the attention of others by selling more spirit runes, and they can also collect some more good things by the way to enhance the heritage of the Zhu family.

Hearing the news, Zhu Youdao was a little relieved, but he still decided to take Xie Xiaohong to Yongzhou. After all, the talisman engraving on grandfather and father is only a first-order middle grade, and the profit is more and less. And with such a grand event of cultivating truth, it's a pity not to gain some knowledge.

Xie Xiaohong has been building a foundation for more than three years, and she doesn't have a first-order or second-order magic weapon on her body, so she can get some equipment here.

Zhu Youdao and Xie Xiaohong lived in Zhenjiang City with peace of mind, and in addition to practicing every day, they went to the street to sell some magic weapons and spiritual runes every time they were in the market, and they also bought things that caught their eye.

Now that Xie Xiaohong is here, there is no need to be as cautious and secretive as before, but Zhu Youdao is still very cautious, and every time he makes a move, he grinds the price several times, and he doesn't buy anything that costs more than five thousand spirit stones.

Soon the time came to the end of the month, and it was the day of departure of the river ferry.

Zhu Youdao, Zhou Ziping, and Liu Changsong came to see them off.

Zhu Youdao said gratefully: "Brother Zhou, Brother Liu, the younger brother will not go to Yongzhou for a trip and will return soon, why do you want to send it off in person?"

Zhou Ziping laughed and said, "Brother Zhu, even if we don't send you, we will also come on this trip!" Seeing Zhu Youdao's inquiring look, he continued, "Brother, do you know why this Bailongjiang is called Bailongjiang?"

Zhu Youdao shook his head and said he didn't know.

"Because, there is a white dragon king in the river, and the price starts here, and the merchants have to pay tolls to pass! It is precisely for this reason that the ferries of the two states will only pass once a month, and there are fewer people and even tolls are not enough!" Zhou Ziping explained with a smile.

"White Dragon King!" Zhu Youdao asked in surprise, "Is it really a white dragon?"

"It's just a fourth-order white Jiao, it calls itself the White Dragon King! It's still far from turning into a dragon, but this white Jiao has a very high level of wisdom and won't hurt people easily, but if you want to cross the river from here, if you don't pay the toll, it will overturn the boat. Our Zhou family once dispatched several ancestors to get rid of this hidden danger, but this Bai Jiao was very vigilant and never left the river. And in the river, less than three Yuan Babies are not its opponents at all, and more than three Yuan Infants, it avoids and does not fight. So, for hundreds of years, it has formed a tacit understanding with us, we pay the tolls, and it ensures that the ferry crosses the river safely. ”

Zhu Youdao was speechless, the monsters in this world are too powerful, and they also know how to collect tolls.

Zhu Youdao asked again: "Is there anything else that the two brothers are doing here?"

Zhou Ziping said: "Every time Bailong appears, he uses the dragon power to deter the people of the ferry, and there have been people who have broken through on the spot under the pressure of the dragon power and improved their cultivation. Even if you don't improve your cultivation, your divine consciousness and will will be slightly rewarded under the baptism of Long Wei, so every time the ferry departs, someone comes to experience it. ”

Zhu Youdao suddenly realized.

When following the caravan out of the city, Zhu Youdao saw that someone had driven hundreds of cattle and sheep to follow the team, Zhu Youdao asked curiously, it turned out that these cattle and sheep were blood food for the White Dragon King.

In addition, the White Dragon King also charges a large number of spirit stones as tolls.

A day later, the convoy arrived at the Bailongjiang ferry, where a huge ferry was already waiting.

Zhu Youdao and Xie Xiaohong came to the front of the team, wanting to see what kind of majesty this king on the Bailong River was.

The monk in charge of the ferry in Zhenjiang City ordered people to drive the cattle and sheep to the river, put down a few wooden boxes, and saw him blow a horn magic weapon, so he hurriedly retreated.

After half an hour, there was a sudden movement on the river. The hundred cows and sheep seemed to know their fate, and they all fell to the ground, trembling.
