Chapter 190: Jinzhi Island
For ordinary cultivators, a stable cultivation environment is often much more cost-effective than a little pill that can only be obtained by fighting life and death.
Although it is not easy to live in the cold city, there are countless large and small islands around, which can be regarded as a good place for people with shy pockets.
On these islands, you only need to hand over a little spirit stone to the Song family every year, and you can choose a place to build your own cave mansion, and there are patrol fleets of the Song family on the lake all year round, although the security is not higher than that of Bihan City, but there is also a certain guarantee.
Even if there is any dispute with someone, there is also an island steward stationed on the island to mediate and deal with it, although it cannot completely eliminate some malignant elements, but most of the time, everything is still in order.
Jinzhi Island is not close to Bihan City, it is not far away, and it is about a hundred miles, this distance is just a simple matter for Wang Zhong, but for most Qi refining cultivators, it costs a lot of true yuan to fly by controlling the magic weapon, so there are many people who are willing to take a boat.
There were about 30 people on the five-zhang long boat, which was not very spacious, but it was not very crowded.
The boatman does not have oars, and the ship moves forward by the formation at the bottom of the boat, and the statue of the blue bird standing on the bow of the ship is the switch of the formation, which combines the magic of the mechanism with the formation very cleverly.
Halfway through, passing several islands, many people disembarked and a few got on board.
When they were almost at their destination, three more people came up, and there were not many people on the boat at this time, and as soon as these three people got on the boat, they seemed to know the two people on the boat, pretending to chat in the corner, but their eyes were drifting around on Wang Zhong's side.
After another half a quarter, nearly ten people landed on Jinzhi Island, and the boatman carried a few more people who went to Bihan City, turned around and returned, this time back and forth, nearly 100 spirit stones were put into the account, and they could go back and forth more than ten times a day, excluding the taxes paid to the Song family and the consumption of spirit stones in the formation, and the income was also quite expensive.
In his previous life, he was afraid that if he had such a career, he would be satisfied for the rest of his life. However, Wang Zhong also knew that if he wanted to join the ship company, it was not a simple matter, at least he had to be related to the Song family.
But Wang Zhong still couldn't help but praise in his heart: "These people from the Nine Surnames Alliance are really rich!"
Along the way these days, the more he went deeper into the Nine Surnames Alliance, the clearer he felt that the monks under the Nine Surnames Alliance were much richer than the ordinary monks in the Chiyang Sect.
It costs a spirit stone to take a boat, and none of these people have any complaints, if it is in the Chiyang Sect, it will cost a spirit stone to take a shuttle, and it is estimated that it will have turned the world upside down.
The monks of the Nine Surnames Alliance are wealthy, and they are inseparable from the sharing of resources, in the territory of the Chiyang Sect, all the mines, treasure lands, etc. are the private property of the sect, and the monks must complete various sect tasks to make a profit.
And if you want to go out to collect medicine or hunt demon beasts or something, generally these places are also guarded by sects, regardless of whether there is a harvest or not, before entering, the sect will draw a batch of spirit stones.
Therefore, a fifth-level Qi refining monk can earn thirty or fifty spirit stones a month, which is a great thing.
But it's different in the Nine Surnames Alliance, most of the resource-rich places here are in a state of ownerlessness, and they only nominally belong to the Nine Surnames Alliance, but in fact, there is no one to govern them, anyone can go in, as long as they are diligent, they can always save a little money.
Take this Tianmu Lake and Baimu Mountain as an example, the aquatic products in the lake and the demon beasts and spiritual plants in the mountains, I don't know how many, and if you find it, it is your own, and the Song family in Bihan City will not come to you to draw a few spirit stones.
Jinzhi Island is not big, more than ten miles longitudinally, from the sky, the whole island looks like a mature Ganoderma lucidum, and there are large patches of yellow maple trees on the island, a piece of golden, so it is named Jinzhi Island.
There are hills, trickles, reed sheds, stone chambers, pavilions, and caves on the island, all of which are people's dwellings, built as they please, and some even have defensive formations laid outside the houses, which are obviously worth a lot of money.
There is also a team of small stewards stationed here in Bihan City, which is in charge of the construction of the house, and the patrol boats of the law enforcement team pass by from time to time to deter the small ones.
There are not many people walking around the island, and there is no good road, except for the bluestone road from the port to the Song family's station, which is built a bluestone road with a width of a few feet, the rest of the place, there are mostly some wilderness paths, it seems that there are no mortals living on this island.
Because if there were mortals living here, the layout of the buildings and roads here would never be so simple.
Only where all the monks exist, everyone is high and high, even if it is the first or second layer of qi refining, the light body kung fu is not comparable to the good hands of the rivers and lakes among mortals, and they can also use all kinds of armor and horse charms, and the requirements for the road are not high, so it will present this pattern of people dotted with people in the wilderness.
Wang Zhong had no intention of settling here for the time being, so he only made a rough circle around the island, and then swept towards a small hill, and not far behind him, five sneaky figures, either walking through the forest or flying in the air, hung behind him and never left.
When they saw that the direction of Wang Zhong was getting more and more remote, these people sped up to keep up.
Before falling to the hill, Wang Zhong had seen left and right, and there was no one living nearby, so he swaggered on top of a raised rock, and then said to the empty space next to him: "A few friends have followed all the way, why don't you come out to meet?"
"What should we do? Boss Gao, we seem to have been discovered. ”
About a hundred zhang away from the king's side, there was a yellow maple forest, and among the swaying golden leaves in the forest, there was a distorted light and shadow, shrouding several people of different shapes.
The leader is a fierce man with a horizontal face, who is facing the help of his younger brother, who is holding a square brocade handkerchief in his hand, obviously a woman's business, and he is indecent in his hands.
The aura on this brocade is not obvious, but there is an illusory air flow around them, the light is so strange that outsiders look here from the outside, they will only see the same color as the surrounding scenery, and they can't see half a figure, it turns out to be a good thing to cover the body by affecting the light exposure.
"What's the hurry, this kid didn't look at us here at all, he must be cheating us, wait and see. Boss Gao replied disdainfully, his eyes fixed on Wang Zhong, who was standing on the stone not far away.
A little brother next to him also echoed: "That is, even if we are discovered, we haven't done anything, what are you panicking about, take care of this baby, don't leak the light." ”
But before he finished speaking, Boss Gao shouted: "Hey, what about the kid?"
Everyone looked at it, and in the blink of an eye just now, Wang Zhong was gone. Baidu takes a look at the latest chapter of "Zhutian Xuanyuan Jiezhong Literature" to read it for free for the first time.
