Chapter 44: Journey to Yongzhou (New Year's Greetings)
It only took more than a month for Xie Xiaohong to dig through the rest of the spiritual well. Li Yunniang had already laid out the formation, and through the traction of the formation, the rich aura gushed out from the ground and was transported to the cultivation place of every monk in the Zhu family.
The spiritual well of Zhujiazhuang is not deep enough, and it only leads out a first-grade spiritual vein, and the higher-quality spiritual veins need to continue to dig deeper, which is no longer what the current Zhu family can do.
However, before the appearance of the Jindan Monk in the family, the first-grade spiritual vein was enough to use.
As soon as the spiritual veins are completed, the mountain protection array of Langya Mountain has enough energy, not only is the protective force several times stronger, but it can also save a lot of spirit stones, Zhu Youdao has been beaming with joy these days.
After a few more months, Zhu Youdao suddenly summoned the Zhu family monks: "Grandpa and father have been in Yongzhou for more than six years, and according to the original plan, they should have come back a year ago." I can't rest assured in my heart, I plan to go to Yongzhou to see, you practice hard at home, don't go out, now that the spiritual veins at home are built, there is a big array to guard, and there is a big holy valley in the mountain to help, I can also rest assured. Yun Niang has something to decide, and if the decision is not good, wait for me to come back. ”
Li Yunniang said: "Husband, let Xiaohong go with you, she has already built the foundation, with her with you, we can rest assured!"
Xie Xiaohong married into the Zhu family, and she had not been out of the mountain yet, so she immediately expressed her desire to go with her.
Zhu Youqing also came to join in the fun with a little monkey in his arms: "Brother, I'm going too, I haven't gone out yet!" Zhu Youqing now has two little followers, one is a lightning marten and the other is a spirit monkey. This spirit monkey is a small monkey in the Great Holy Valley, and his talent has been unusual since he was a child, and he is more spiritual than other monkeys. Zhu Youqing has been running at both ends of the Zhu family and the Great Holy Valley over the years, and is very popular with the monkeys, this little spirit monkey is willing to follow her, and Sun Wudao has no opinion on this.
Zhu Youqing spoke, and Zhu Youwei was also eager to try.
Zhu Youdao glared at them: "I'm going to find my grandfather and father this time, not to play in the mountains and rivers, aren't you going to make trouble?"
He thought for a moment and said, "Just let Xiaohong go out with me, although she has a high cultivation, she has never walked in the cultivation realm, just go out to practice, if you really encounter something, we will be safer together!"
Seeing that Zhu Youqing and Zhu Youwei were like deflated balls, sullen. Zhu Youdao said to them: "The children of the Zhu family always have to go out, but the outside world is not safe, when you are older and your cultivation is higher, I will take you out to see the world, and this will become a practice in the future, after the children of the Zhu family become adults, they must go out to practice, and they are not allowed to go home if they are not under a certain number of years! You practice hard at home and help your sister-in-law take care of your family!"
After arranging the big and small matters at home, Zhu Youdao went to Dasheng Valley again and asked Sun Wudao to help take care of Zhujiazhuang, and the monkey head naturally agreed.
Over the years, Monkey Head has also been invited to Zhujiazhuang twice as a guest, and the relationship between the two sides has become very close.
A few days later, Xie Xiaohong drove a frying pan and left Langya Mountain, while Zhu Youdao sat helplessly at the bottom of the pot, feeling quite depressed.
He really couldn't figure out why the Zhu family was so interested in frying pans.
After Xie Xiaohong built the foundation, Zhu Youdao wanted to refine a flying magic weapon for her, he originally wanted to refine it into a small flying boat, but Xie Xiaohong didn't want it alive or dead, he had to use a flying magic weapon in the shape of a pan.
Zhu Youdao couldn't resist her, so he made a frying pan for her. This pot depicts the three runes of "Flying Sky", "Sumeru" and "Floating Feather", and the quality is as high as the first order.
The "Flying Heaven" sigil is a universal flying magic weapon, the "Sumeru" sigil makes the magic weapon large or small under the drive of mana, and the "floating feather" sigil can reduce weight.
The pan flying magic weapon has the same effect as the flying boat, but Xie Xiaohong is sitting on the handle of the pot, and Zhu Youdao is sitting at the bottom of the pot, which makes him feel like an omelette, and he feels very awkward.
Limited to cultivation, the speed of the flying magic weapon refined by Zhu Youdao is average, far less than the iron feather flying eagle domesticated by the Zhou family, but it is better to be able to control it freely, and fly wherever you want.
On the way, they met the Fang Market, so the two of them came down to rest, and by the way, they sold some spiritual runes, collected some materials, and inquired about the news.
But the two of them didn't dare to fly around, Yunzhou has a vast area, and there are many areas that humans have not explored, in case they encounter powerful demon beasts, they will kill people. Although Xie Xiaohong has built a foundation, in the whole world, the foundation building period still belongs to the range of low-level monks.
Following the route often walked by the Chamber of Commerce, the two flew all the way to stop, and after three months, they finally arrived at the junction of Yunzhou and Yongzhou.
Zhu Youdao had already inquired clearly, if he wanted to go to Yongzhou, he had to cross the Bailongjiang River in the middle, and the wind on the Bailongjiang River was endless all year round, and the monks could not fly above the Jindan. If you want to cross the river, you can only take the ferry to and from the river.
There is a city on the side of the Bailong River, called Zhenjiang City, this city is also the main stronghold of the Zhou family, the Zhou family has a Yuan Infant old monster who has been sitting here for a long time, and there is also a teleportation array between the Vientiane City to prevent the invasion of demon beasts in the river or other state forces.
Zhu Youdao and Xie Xiaohong landed outside the city, paid a spirit stone for each of them to enter the city, and then entered the city.
Zhu Youdao inquired when he entered the city, the ferry to the other side of the river once a month, they came unlucky, the last ferry just left, it was still early before the next departure, they could only stay here temporarily, waiting for time.
The two came directly to the management office of Zhenjiang City, and in order to attract nearby monks, Zhenjiang City built a lot of small buildings in the city that attracted the aura and rented them out.
As soon as the two of them entered the door, the person in charge of the place personally greeted them and said enthusiastically: "Two Taoist friends, welcome to Zhenjiang City, next Zhou Ziping, is the monk in charge of managing Fang City in this city, are you going to rent a residence?"
Zhu Youdao nodded and said, "Yes, we plan to practice here for a while, please introduce me!"
"Okay, there are three kinds of residences in Zhenjiang City for rent, one is a single small room, only one room size, with basic furnishings, can live one to two people, two spirit stones per month; the second kind of small building with a courtyard, complete furniture, can live five or six people, ten spirit stones per month; the third is a mansion, with a living room, a living room, a cultivation room, an alchemy refining room, a spirit pet room, and a beautiful environment, protected by a formation, fifty spirit stones per month. Which one do you choose?"
Zhu Youdao thought about it for a while, with Xie Xiaohong here, it was impossible for him to live too badly.
"Then the second kind of cave house, live for a month first!"
Zhou Ziping said enthusiastically: "Okay! Wait a minute, two fellow Daoists!" He quickly took a token and personally led them to the front of the rows of courtyards. Zhenjiang City occupies a large enough area that the distance between the two courtyards is far enough to prevent tenants from interfering with each other.
Zhu Youdao chose a cave house, handed over the spirit stone, and lived in it with Xie Xiaohong.
Before Zhou Ziping left, he enthusiastically introduced: "Two Taoist friends, although the city is open every day, but only on the fifth, fifteenth, and twenty-third days of the first month of the month is the big market, at this time the flow of people is the most, and the goods are the most complete. ”
Zhu Youdao arched his hand and said: "Thank you for your advice!"
Zhou Ziping said with a smile: "For the sake of the matter, if you have any needs, you can go to me!"
