What the cultivators who are scattered in the rivers and lakes lack the most is a blessed place for self-preservation. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 The Cultivated Blessed Land is not just a place with beautiful scenery that can be counted, but also needs to gather the surrounding heaven and earth spirits with great mana, and transfer the dragon veins and earth qi to nourish the state of growth, so as to facilitate the cultivation of the body and soul.

In addition, the cultivation blessed land also needs a large number of chiseling and operation, prohibiting the formation to protect and cover it and make it avoid the mundane world, and there must also be a medicinal field spiritual garden and a Danding pedestal for the relaxation of the earth's qi, and as for the meditation room cave for the practice retreat, it is even more indispensable.

In this way, it is often difficult to find such a blessed land for cultivation without the cultivation of teachers in the past generations, and this is not something that can be built in just one generation. Think about the majestic and independent Taihua Cave Heaven, which was opened up by the Taihua True Immortal Creation Xuangong, and it took nearly a thousand years for later generations to complete the construction.

And what Qi Dezhong can rely on now is the overseas immortal mansion of Huzhou Ke. It just so happens that this place is far away from the strife in Kyushu, and it is a blessed place for cultivation outside the world. The only problem is that it's too far from the coast.

From the Kan Hexagram Talisman Stone, it is known that the Overseas Immortal Mansion is three thousand six hundred miles away from the coast of the East China Sea, and unless they have the ability to fly to the heavens or are good at water escape spells, ordinary cultivators cannot get close to the Overseas Immortal Mansion at all.

Before that, if you have a magic weapon that is used to fly in the sky, you can barely fly to the sky, just like the head of the Feiyun Gate "Tengyun Seat", Changqing Taoist people are just sincere and full-form cultivation, and the imperial weapon still has the style of soaring clouds and driving the fog.

As for the various ways of retreat, it is quite difficult to practice and start, and it is necessary to have profound mana to continue, and the best escape method is the method of moving away from the void, which can be done in the flash of mind and mind, and travel through all parts of the world, but that is already something that only earth immortals can do.

After thinking about it, the only way to get there was by boat. The islands in the East China Sea are scattered like stars, and even if it is an uninhabited desert island, there are many overseas treasures waiting to be discovered. Since ancient times, the ancestors of the East China Sea have repeatedly gone to sea for adventures, and the coast of the East China Sea is even more continuous, and a large number of sea people go to sea every year to hunt for treasures, including many giant ships that travel thousands of miles back and forth.

Rong Gui was born in the south of the Yangtze River, Fang Dong had worked hard in the dock gang, and he was familiar with the situation, so he proposed to go to Huhai City, which was the largest port in the East China Sea, with thousands of sails, and many big ships going to the East China Sea Islands.

What's even more rare is that the land south of the Yangtze River is still stable at present, the righteous army of the king of Chu is now arranging the main direction of attack in Sichuan and Shu, and the army of the Heavenly King is busy dealing with the army of the Qianzhou Dynasty in the north of the river.

"Since ancient times, the prosperous land in the south of the Yangtze River, where countless wealthy families have a foothold, it is impossible not to attract people's coveting. Qi Dezhong felt strange.

Fang Dong explained: "Master didn't know, even in the past few years, the momentum of the righteous banner of the king of Chu had not yet left the land of Huguang, and the wealthy landlords in Jiangnan were already powerful, almost separating one side, and each family recruited soldiers to protect the courtyard and build bunkers among the mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River to fight against the imperial court. ”

"I think tax resistance is the real thing. ”

"Master's discerning eyes, it is true. Fang Dong nodded and said: "The Jiangnan Business Alliance in Huhai City is huge, headed by the Song, Qi, Liang and Chen families, almost dividing the entire Jiangnan, and the private army under its command is full of guns and cannons, and each family has a fleet cruising the East China Sea. ”

"I see, it seems that it is not that all parties do not covet the land south of the Yangtze River, but that no one can guarantee that they will not be stabbed in the back by the other party before they gnaw this hard bone. Qi Dezhong asked: "Isn't the Jiangnan Business Alliance optimistic about which side? After all, the momentum of neutrality will not last long, and they do not look like they are aggressive and striving for hegemony." ”

"Before the disciples fled Jiangnan, the Jiangnan Business League was still more inclined to the Qian Dynasty, after all, the Yiqi of the King of Chu claimed to sweep away the squires of the Hao clan, and these people were the foundation of the Jiangnan Business League. As for the Heavenly King Sect, I guess it's because these rich men don't look down on mud legs. Fang Dong replied with a wry smile: "And the Qi family, one of the four families of the Shang Alliance, is the descendant of Qi Zhen, the king of Wu, and is also a descendant of the Qian Dynasty." ”

"Oh? And this relationship? It's a pity that the teacher is also surnamed Qi, and he can't be related to them. ”

Qi Zhen, the king of Wu, was the youngest son of the Taizu of the Qian, and was named the most prosperous and wealthy Jiangnan, which shows that the Taizu of the Qianzhou Dynasty loved him. It's a pity that later King Qi Zhen of Wu was extravagant, and was expelled from the country and the people when he cut the domain, and King Wu was exiled to the south of the Yangtze River. Fortunately, after hundreds of years of operation, the descendants of Queen Wu have revived, which is also somewhat due to the separatism of Jiangnan.

Now that Huhai City and the entire south of the Yangtze River are in neutral, and the war has not yet been extended, maybe the six masters and apprentices will be able to take the giant ship to the overseas Xianfu.

All the way to the east and south, except for dealing with a few rogue soldiers and ruffians who met by chance, Qi Dezhong and the others did not encounter too much trouble, and originally thought that they would be noticed by the cultivators in the world, but there were not too many dangers.

The six masters and apprentices finally came to the north bank of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and the first thing they saw was not the scene of the vast river or thousands of sails, but the scene of tens of thousands of refugees congested on the bank of the river, setting up shacks, tents, and living life.

After some inquiry, I realized that since the war in Jiangbei has been raging in the past two years, the number of refugees fleeing to the south has been increasing day by day. Although the Tianwang Sect was supported by many people, not every ordinary person understood the difference between the Tianwang Sect and the officers and soldiers of the Qianchao Dynasty.

Since ancient times, the natural disasters of war in the north have always prompted the people of Li to flee south, and the Yangtze River is difficult to cross, so the prosperity and stability of the south of the Yangtze River will naturally attract more refugees.

It's just that Jiangnan has taken in too many refugees recently, and Jiangnan, which is already densely populated, can't accommodate so many refugees flocking to it, so the Jiangnan Business Alliance immediately set up checkpoints along the river bank to limit the number of people crossing the river every day.

Qi Dezhong was silent for a long time when he heard this, he couldn't say whether this matter was good or bad, the refugees naturally hoped to cross the Yangtze River as soon as possible, but if they were from the shoes of Jiangnan, they must hope that there would be so many foreign refugees to snatch their livelihood from him?

But looking at a large area of dilapidated and dirty refugee shacks, Qi Dezhong could not help but sigh, standing on a slightly higher soil slope and looking south, the towering lighthouse of Huhai City, the rows of blue bricks and tiles, and the dark blue courtyard of the deep house are in stark contrast to the refugees in Jiangbei.

"Master, I have inquired that anyone who crosses the river will either show the permission order of the Jiangnan Business Alliance, or pay ten taels of silver per person, and the luggage will be counted separately. Fang Dong ran from afar and said.

"Ten taels, why don't they rob it?" Qi Dezhong snorted coldly: "Jiangnan Shangmeng has really been in business for a long time, can even human lives be measured in gold and silver?"

"Master, what should I do now?"

Qi Dezhong walked down the dirt slope, faced the river, looked at the soldiers and guns on the sentry post in the distance, and sneered: "We can't afford sixty taels of silver, but there is no need to spend it in these places." Let's go, I'll take you across the river for the teacher!"
