Chapter 66: Mutton Patty
Zhong Li left Zhao Xifeng's residence, and the black-clothed old man who was driving the carriage had been waiting outside the door for a long time.
After Zhong Li got into the car, he said to the old man: "Uncle Che, go back to the Drum Tower directly, I want to breathe for a while on the way, don't disturb me." ”
The old man responded with a worried face, lowered the curtain, and drove to the drum tower in the smoothest way.
The moment the curtain was lowered, a wisp of blood flowed out of the corner of Zhong Li's mouth, and a sharp pain erupted from the deepest part of the Yuan Shen Consciousness Sea, which was the fury of Tiger Eye who had been teased continuously these days, directly hurting Zhong Li's soul.
Zhong Li's face was like gold paper, and two lines of nosebleeds flowed down one after another, but his face was very calm, and he said softly: "Now you are me, I am you, what's the use of being angry, you have the ability to kill me." ”
Tiger Eye slowly calmed down, Zhong Li had a mocking smile on his face, sat down cross-legged, wiped the blood on his face, and began to breathe and recuperate.
Half an hour later, when the carriage arrived at the drum tower, Zhongli also happened to be lucky for the first week.
Zhong Li strode into the drum tower with the old man in black, and said to Zheng Yanji, who stepped forward to greet him, "Uncle Zheng, let's go down and have a look." ”
The Drum Tower is the oldest building in the town, as early as before the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it stood in the center of the town, it can be said that all the other buildings in the town are built around the Drum Tower, it is the same as the Drum Tower of most towns in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and there is no special story.
Later, in all dynasties, the town guards have renovated the drum tower, and the drum tower has also changed from the wooden frame building at the beginning to the current three-story brick and stone building.
In recent years, before Zhong Li arrived in the town, Zheng Yanji asked for the drum tower at the four-person meeting with Zhou Zhe and Kuhai, Guo You didn't think too much about it and agreed, but later felt that something was wrong, compared to the Huangji Sect of "Ten Thousand Laws Return to Tibet, the Gateway of the Son of Heaven", Beiyue Academy is inferior in terms of quality and strength, but even so, the academy is still with the support of Jiangnan Province, coveting this blessed land where the star tide descended, and trying his best to open a sect in the town, and the Huangji Sect only needs a drum tower! One has to suspect that there is a mystery in it.
After Zhong Li, Zheng Yanji and the old man in black walked into the drum tower, the protective array around the drum tower was immediately opened, and the wind and rain were impervious.
At this time, the appearance of the inside of the drum tower, if Guo You came down to take a look when he was a referee upstairs, he would have been surprised, there was only a shell left in the building at this time, and all the remaining parts were emptied, and the floor of the main hall on the first floor was gone, and in its place, it was a huge pit that was twenty zhang deep! There were many spirit stones and silver mirrors scattered on the pit wall, and they were connected by golden threads that shimmered with ghostly light, and the whole pit was like a big basket full of stars!
Directly above the pit, an inverted cone-shaped boulder hangs from the beam of the drum tower, the surface of the stone is crystal clear, and there is a faint layer of cyan liquid flowing, which slowly gathers on the tip of the cone at the bottom and then drives into the pit below.
Zheng Yanji looked at the pit and said to Zhong Li: " Miss Qiyu, in the past few days since you left, the Juyuan Cave has been completed, today is the first day to start using it, the Gongji clan is worthy of the Central Continent, the group of people who have the most thorough understanding of the circulation of the Yuan Spirit and the Star Tide, and accurately calculated that this is the only Yuan Ling low-lying within a radius of three hundred miles, all the Star Tide and the Yuan Spirit will naturally converge here, within three days, the remaining Star Tide in the town will be accompanied by a large number of Yuan Spirits gathered here, and when the little master is exhausted, the task of this northwest line will be successfully completed. ”
The old man in black clasped his hands and smiled: "Back then, in order to consolidate the Yuan Shen that was already on the verge of collapse, the little lord forced the tiger's eyes into the body, hurting the body, over the years, as the little major has become more and more sophisticated, the hidden injuries left back then have become more and more serious. ”
"What's more?" Zheng Yan laughed loudly: "There is a tiger soul inside, the spiritual platform is clean, there is a star tide to wash the body, the body is unparalleled, plus my sect is known as the reserve of ten thousand laws to return to Tibet, so blessed, it can be said that there is no one before or after it, I believe that it is only a matter of time before the young lady ascends to the extreme." ”
Zhong Li's face was calm, her eyes were scattered, it was obvious that she was not listening to the two loyal old servants, and when she saw that they had finished speaking, she opened her mouth and asked, "Could it be that the Juyuan Cave is too strong in suction, causing the natural spirit around the town to be out of balance?"
Zheng Yanji shook his head and said: "No, the main collection of Juyuan Cave is the power of starlight, and these starlight ordinary cultivators can't use it, and they can't even sense it, as for the ensuing Yuan Spirit, they are all drawn from the wandering and disorderly Yuan Spirit, not only will it not affect other cultivators, but it will form a Yuan Spirit Vortex, absorbing the aura of the eight directions here, it can be said that with this Juyuan Cave, Panlong Town, this blessed land cave sky, is worthy of its name." ”
Zhong Li continued to ask, "Does the star tide fluid only accumulate once?"
"No," Zheng Yanji said with a smile, "It's just that after the first time, the power of the nearby star tide has dried up, and if you want to recover, I'm afraid it will take at least a hundred days." ”
"That's okay," Zhong Li nodded indifferently, "I'm tired of Uncle Zheng going to Zhennan, and inform Zhao Xifeng not to wait until August 15, and prepare to prepare for the Drum Tower in three days." ”
Zheng Yan looked at Zhong Li in amazement, and said in disbelief: "Little princess, what do you mean by this?!"
Zhong Li said calmly: "Recently, this son has helped me a lot, and I was beaten unconscious every day by the tiger's eye, although he didn't say it, but I knew that he had already been covered in bruises, and some serious injuries even caused hidden dangers to future practice. ”
"But Miss..."Zheng Yanji was about to say something more, but was interrupted by Zhong Li's birth.
"Uncle Zheng doesn't need to say it anymore, I know my own body, and it has not yet reached the point where I can't hold on, but the period of 100 days can't delay anything. Zhong Li turned his head to look at Zheng Yanji, and said calmly, "Also, the Central Continent is vast, there are many opportunities, no one can really be called blessed, Xiaoli does not dare to be complacent, never thinks that with the help of the stars and tides, he can look down on the world, and he is never humble, even if he does not have this Juyuan Cave, he will strive for the peak of the extreme path in the world, and try his hand at the level with other heroes! ”
Zheng Yanji was silent for a moment, bowed his head under the order, and went out to find Zhao Xifeng.
The old man in black looked at Zhong Li dotingly, and said softly: "Miss can't deceive the old slave, experience the power and realm of the fierce tiger, with Miss's current cultivation, seven days is enough, and then that time is just to help Zhao Xifeng's baby experience the nine changes of Lingshan, every time the tiger's eye is possessed, although it is the kid who is beaten, but the impact on your soul and body is only severe, so that now you are seriously injured and have to come back to recuperate, why are you so kind to a foreign boy? The old slave really doesn't understand." ”
Zhong Li crooked his neck and thought for a moment, smiled, and said to the old man: "Uncle Zheng shouldn't have gone far yet, Uncle Che, you hurry up and follow him, tell him, remember to take a few more mutton cakes from Zhao's house and come back, I will eat them at night." ”
