Volume 2 Fang City Disputes Chapter 89 Receiving Fang City
Bursts of pain came from time to time, and Xiao An gradually woke up from his coma. After opening his eyes, Xiao An found himself lying in a carriage with thick cushions underneath him, and the front of the carriage was covered by a cloth curtain. The carriage is extremely stable, and if you don't feel it carefully, you won't notice that the carriage is shaking very slightly.
Xiao An struggled to sit up, and just this action of getting up made Xiao An gasp in pain, as if his chest was about to crack.
Xiao An gently lifted the curtain with his hand, and saw a huge bull's head, with five or six pitch-black and hideous sharp horns growing on the bull's head, and white gas erupted from the cow's mouth and nose, making a heavy breathing sound.
This is a monster called the "Wide-backed Demon Cow", which is very similar to the cattle in the secular world, but the body size is larger, and the length of the adult can reach two zhang, and the carriage on which he lies is fixed on the back of this demon beast.
The wide-backed demon cow is the first kind of demon beast to be tamed by humans, this kind of demon beast can generally reach the middle stage of spiritual attraction after adulthood, and this kind of demon beast has a docile personality and excellent endurance, even if the speed of walking with weight can be comparable to that of a monk at the fourth or fifth level of qi refining.
Therefore, when the sect and some chambers of commerce are transporting materials, they often organize dozens of wide-backed demon cows to carry goods.
In addition, there were three such demon beasts in front, each of which carried several boxes with a length, width, and height of three feet on its back, and two monks sitting on the back of each demon cow.
Xiao An recognized at a glance that the box on the back of the demon cow was a special "storage box" for transporting a large number of materials, each storage box was three feet long, wide, and high, but the space inside was different, ranging from three zhang to nine zhang in size.
It's just that the storage box is extremely heavy, and it is inconvenient for the monks to carry it, so it can only be carried by demon beasts.
Although the storage tools used by the monks are all storage bags, the internal space of the storage bags is small, the smallest is only three feet, and the largest is only three zhang in size, and the storage bag of three zhang size is extremely expensive, and this money can buy twenty or thirty storage boxes of the same volume.
At this moment, a wide-backed demon cow took two steps from behind and came to Xiao An's carriage. The monk sitting on the back of this demon bull was Xiao An's senior brother Du Zhiyun.
Senior Brother Du was very surprised when he saw that Xiao An had already sat up: "Senior Brother Xiao, you were so seriously injured yesterday, I thought you would have to sleep for several days, but I didn't expect to wake up so soon!"
After speaking, Senior Brother Du jumped lightly, and then came to Xiao An, with a concerned look on his face.
"Thank you Senior Brother Du for saving your life!" Xiao An was about to get up and salute Senior Brother Du after speaking, but was hurriedly stopped by Senior Brother Du.
"Senior Brother Xiao, you have been injured like this, it is better to rest quickly and recuperate with peace of mind. ”
"How could you be so seriously injured?" Senior Brother Du asked with a puzzled expression.
"When I was practicing, I accidentally injured my meridians. Xiao An showed an embarrassed expression.
After listening to Xiao An's words, Senior Brother Du no longer dwelled on the reason for Xiao An's injury, but just told Xiao An to rest well, chatted for a while and left the carriage.
After Senior Brother Du left, Xiao An slowly lay on the thick cushion again, originally planning to say goodbye to Senior Brother Du after waking up, and go back to his cave to recuperate, but after knowing that Senior Brother Du was going to Qishifang City, Xiao An no longer mentioned leaving.
Senior Brother Du will not only take over Qishifang City, but will also manage Fang City as the "principal" of Fang City.
According to Senior Brother Du, many monks in the sect wanted to come to Qishifang City to be the "principal", but in the end, it was their master who made a lot of effort to win this "beauty difference" for himself.
And the items in the storage box carried by the wide-backed demon ox are the items that are intended to be sold in the renovated fang market and his own shop.
Although these materials are worth a lot of spirit stones, in the accompanying team, Senior Brother Du's cultivation is the eighth layer of qi refining, and there are four seventh-level qi refining monks and several fourth- and fifth-level qi refining monks, so there is no need to worry about someone robbing them.
Knowing that he was not in danger, Xiao An relieved himself and began to check his body.
On that day, Xiao An was smashed in the chest by a fierce monk, not only smashing several bones, but also the spiritual power from the giant hammer was constantly destroying the meridians in Xiao An's body.
Now the bones in the chest have been connected, and it will be two or three days before they can return to normal movements. But there is still a lot of spiritual power left in the fierce monk, and he can only rely on his own spiritual power to wear it off little by little.
Xiao An was lying in the carriage, recalling the scene of that day and feeling a little afraid, if it weren't for the effect of the Ten Thousand Rot Pill, and he happened to have the best elixir to treat fire poison, that cave would be the place where he died.
When the fierce monk died of fire poison, Xiao An reluctantly took the person's magic weapon into his storage bag, and carefully inspected the other party's storage bag, transferring all the treasures in the other party's storage bag to his own storage bag.
When Xiao An checked the other party's storage bag, he not only found a token and a certificate to go down the mountain, but also found the other party's identity nameplate and a notebook that recorded secret things, which actually recorded the details of the other party's every action.
When Xiao An left here, he did not destroy the body of the fierce monk, and left the identity plate and the notebook in the person's storage bag, but tore up all the information about himself in the notebook.
After stepping out of the prohibition on the periphery of the earth fire, Xiao An stopped and pondered for a moment, then threw both tokens into the prohibition.
When the token is not activated by spiritual power, it will also be attacked by the prohibition, and the material of the token itself is not too hard, and it will be smashed into powder by the prohibition before it falls to the ground.
Xiao An left the sect with the other party's credentials, but he hadn't gone far before he could suppress the spiritual power raging in his body. Fortunately, at this time, Xiao An saw Senior Brother Du on the side of the road, and only shouted "Senior Brother Du", and Xiao An fainted on the side of the road.
Two days later, Senior Brother Du's "small caravan" successfully arrived in Qishifang City, and under the witness of many merchants, Senior Brother Du received the jade seal symbolizing the ownership of Fang City from the hands of the Lin family, and Qishifang City officially became the industry of the Cangyue faction.
According to the customs of this place, before the construction of a fang market, a jade seal will be refined, and a special person will take this jade seal to the five major sects to register, who has the ownership of the fang market.
And the four major families who founded Qishifang City, now only the Lin family remains. The Shen family was the first to decline, and the Han family died because of the Xu family, although the Xu family was picked up from the Wuji faction by the sect, they did not dare to return to Fang City at all.
After settling in Qishifang City, Senior Brother Du chose the Shen family house as his "base camp".
Since the disappearance of the head of the Shen family, they have encountered a "robbery", and the whole family has suffered heavy losses, so the clansmen sold their share in the Fang City to several others, and then moved out of the Qishifang City, and the Shen family's mansion has been empty since then.
There are many houses in the Shen family's house, and there is also a formation to protect the family, and Xiao An's injury is not well now, and he can't do anything with people at present, so he also lives here, and plans to return to his Du Zhixuan after the injury is healed.
Senior Brother Du and the others were extremely busy every day, not only to re-sign the contract with the merchants, but also to select three shops with good locations in this city, which would sell pills, magic utensils and talismans respectively in the future.
There were a lot of items in the storage box, not only did they have supplies that could support the operation of these three stores for several months, but they also brought several sets of array plates and array flags. Senior Brother Du not only replaced the formation at the entrance of Fang City, but even the guard formation of the Shen family's mansion and the three shops was replaced by the formation of the sect's own sect, and Xiao An was also busy with these people every day.
Even the sound transmission platform where Senior Brother Du lived was moved, and the things in the sect could be known in time in the future.
Within a few days, Senior Brother Du announced a piece of news that surprised everyone: Elder Zhao, the "principal" of Pepsi Hall, was actually a fine work placed in the Cangyue Sect by another sect.
It is said that the cause of this incident was only an abnormality in the ground fire of Xinyi Peak, and in the end, it was found on Elder Zhao.
It turned out that when Xiao An used the Ten Thousand Rot Pill to corrode the prohibition of the earth fire out of the hole, it caused the earth fire to leak, which not only poisoned the fierce monk, but also had a great impact on the monks who were refining pills and magic weapons on Xinyi Peak.
Among the twenty-seven earth fire houses, there were actually twenty-three items that were refining qi that failed to be refined, and there were still a few items in them that the sect asked to be rushed up.
The monk in charge of managing Xinyi Peak sent two monks, one to contact the monk who was now in charge of guarding the earthfire, and the other went to the Pepsi Hall to get the spare token of the earthfire ban, but there was no record of the earthfire guard for nearly three months, and the spare token of the Pepsi Hall also disappeared.
After the matter was reported to the sect, it not only alarmed the Law Enforcement Hall, but also the Dark Hall.
Each side sent a foundation building period monk to implement this matter, and these two monks directly sacrificed their magic weapons and entered the earth fire cave under the forbidden attack.
The two monks saw the disillusioned array and the corpse of the fierce monk, but at this time its corpse had turned into a dried corpse, and it was difficult to distinguish the appearance of this person before his death. But from this person's storage bag, he got the person's identity nameplate and the notebook, especially the content of the notebook pointed directly to Elder Zhao of the Pepsi Hall.
When the sect learned of this, they immediately sent several foundation building period monks to arrest Elder Zhao.
When these monks sneaked into Elder Zhao's residence, they happened to see Elder Zhao put an item into a small teleportation array, and although everyone immediately took action, the item placed on it had already been teleported away.
The teleportation distance of this small teleportation array is very short, only more than a thousand miles.
Back then, the talisman used by the Cangyue faction to determine the location of the Wuji sect monks outside Qishifang City was that the Lin family master used this small teleportation array to pass it to the Cangyue faction, and the Cangyue faction forged a fake talisman with no appearance and then passed it to the Lin family master through this small teleportation array.
At this time, Elder Zhao was surrounded by five foundation building period monks, and there was no way to escape, this was originally a sure arrest, but everyone underestimated Elder Zhao's ferocity.
No one expected that Elder Zhao would actually arrange a small "Flame Burning Sky" formation in his residence, and after discovering that he could not escape, Elder Zhao immediately operated this formation.
In an instant, the entire mansion turned into a sea of fire, and even among the five foundation building period monks who captured this person, only three survived.
Elder Zhao's move also destroyed all the information and clues he was engaged in in detailing, and the Cangyue Sect was unable to find useful clues from it, and after this incident, no one cared about the whereabouts of the monk who was in charge of guarding the Earth Fire.
