Money in the heavens

In the world of wind and cloud, Wushuang City.

Ever since the death of Dugu Yifang, the lord of Wushuang City, Wushuang City has been leaderless. If it weren't for the appearance of the Sword Saint who wanted to kill Xiongba, the leader of Tianxiahui, with the sword twenty-three, Wushuang City would probably have been directly occupied by Tianxiahui.

However, after that, the world changed. Nie Feng, Bu Jingyun and Xiongba turned against each other, and various forces united to encircle Tianxiahui.

No one knows what happened in the end.

In Wushuang City, a genius boy appeared, carrying a huge sword box, and saved the pursued Dugu Ming and Dugu Meng with the flying sword technique and the holy sword technique, and defeated the rest of Wushuang City, brought back the Wushuang Sword, and became the young lord of Wushuang City, with Dugu Meng as the deputy lord.

The boy called himself Wushuang, and the sword box in his hand was also Wushuang. With the name Wushuang, everyone thought that this was a hidden backhand of the Wushuang City lineage to protect Wushuang City and protect the inheritance of the Dugu lineage.

What's more, Dugu Meng and his sister had no objection, so naturally others would not have any objection, let alone dare to have any objection!

Holy Spirit Sword Technique is the symbol of Sword Saint Dugu Sword. With the boy's name and Wushuang Sword Box, although Dugu Meng and Dugu Ming have never seen Wushuang, they also believe that Wushuang should be the descendant of the Sword Saint!

Wushuang's appearance was naturally Shang Yi's handiwork. After killing Xiongba, he was targeted by Emperor Shitian and fled for a while while waiting to return to the reincarnation space.

It was during this period that Shang Yi separated a part of his spiritual aura and merged it into a boy who had just died, and hid a string of blood bodhi and a Wushuang sword box hastily refined with refined gold and black iron in another safe place through secret means.

If there was time, Shang Yi would not have prepared so hastily, but who could have thought that Emperor Shitian, who was obviously not going to appear, would jump out, and under the special rules of the Fengyun World, his six magical powers of Buddhism were much less mysterious, and he did not even notice the danger.

Shang Yi knew in his heart that someone must have secretly influenced him, otherwise he would have given a mental warning in such a dangerous situation, and would not be so embarrassed.

However, Shang Yi also left a backup plan, that is, he, who is called Wushuang, will use Wushuang City to control a force, and then he will naturally retaliate against Emperor Shitian!

"Is this the 'sandstorm'..."

Meng Qi, who had never experienced it before, tightened his thick monk robe. He was not afraid of the cold, but felt that after being covered with dust and gravel, he lost his chic and elegant temperament, like an old shepherd.

Since leaving Shaolin in the autumn, Xuanbei has been traveling at a leisurely pace, leaving ample time for the monks who went to other sects to explain the matter. Therefore, it was not until March that the master and his apprentices arrived at "Liushaji". However, March in the Western Regions is still as cold as winter.

Zhenhui opened his big eyes and looked curiously at the dust around him, the trees that were stained and dim, and the camels with bells swinging, and he exclaimed from time to time.

There were few pedestrians in the market. The people who lived here had returned to their homes to avoid the strong wind and gravel. Only merchants, rangers, travelers, etc. were still walking towards the only inn in the market against the wind and sand.

"Brother, they look different from us!" Zhenhui finally couldn't help asking.

Many pedestrians had high noses and deep eyes, and their hair and pupils were of different colors, which were rare among the people in the Central Plains. What's more, some had double horns on their heads and eyes between their eyebrows, which looked like monsters.

Meng Qi was overwhelmed by what he saw, but he didn't know how to answer Zhenhui.

"Amitabha, people are different in different places, and some people in the Western Regions are called descendants of gods and demons, so they inevitably have special shapes." Xuanbei said in a calm voice.

The former refers to normal people in the Western Regions, and the latter refers to those "strange people" with double horns on their heads and eyes between their eyebrows.

"Descendants of gods and demons, do they have any special abilities?"

Meng Qi asked with great interest. Could it be that the exchange chart of "Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation" also hides bloodline options such as "descendants of gods and demons"?

At the same time, Meng Qi also thought that Shang Yi should also be here in Liushaji, and maybe he could meet him in reality!

The wind and sand came together, but Xuanbei was spotless around him, and smiled and said, "Of course there is."

As they spoke, the three masters and apprentices had arrived at the inn. This was a three-story house with an old appearance and traces of wind and sand, with the words "The First Family in the Vast Sea" written on it.

Walking into the inn, Meng Qi first saw the counter, which was right next to the door, and was cluttered with papers, brushes, account books and other items.

The shopkeeper was a woman in a black dress. She was about 27 or 28 years old, dressed like a woman, with willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and a beautiful face, like a blooming flower, full of femininity, attracting the passing guests to look at her openly or furtively.

She supported her chin with her right hand and looked at the account book lazily. Her face, which was made even whiter by the black dress, had a cold expression, as if everyone in the inn owed her a hundred taels of silver.

"Amitabha, shopkeeper, stay and eat." As the relatively reliable disciple, Meng Qi went up and said, in fact, he really wanted to call her the boss lady directly, but unfortunately the master was watching from behind.

The woman in the black dress didn't even raise her head, and said indifferently: "Five taels of silver a night, and meals are charged separately."

Fuck, you are robbing! Meng Qi really wanted to teach her what "the customer is God" meant, but unfortunately his master was watching from behind.

Thinking that there was only this inn here, and there was not even a ruined temple, it was a "monopoly industry", Meng Qi looked back at his master, and seeing him nod slightly, he took out silver from the package and put it on the counter: "Fifteen taels of silver, three rooms."

"Only two rooms." The woman in black skirt still ignored him.

Meng Qi thought it was no problem, the master would take one room, and he and Zhenhui would just squeeze in. Anyway, there were many times of eating and sleeping in the open on this journey, and now it was good to have two rooms: "Okay, this is ten taels of silver, two rooms."

He reached out to take back five taels of silver.

The woman in black skirt squinted at Meng Qi: "It's calculated per person."

Meng Qi's mouth twitched, and he really wanted to teach her how to be a man, but unfortunately the master was watching from behind.

After getting the master's consent, Meng Qi nodded and said, "Fifteen taels of silver for two rooms."

The woman in black slowly gathered the silver and said without raising her eyelids, "Two unlocked rooms on the west side of the second floor, go by yourself."

Don't think that I won't hit you just because you are a beautiful woman! Unfortunately, the master is watching from behind... Meng Qi thought about this resentfully countless times. This is a subconscious thought that he developed along the way.

In the lobby of the inn, there are more than twenty tables, all of which are full of people. Some are playing finger-guessing games and drinking, some are talking loudly, and some are whispering. It is very lively.

Some of these guests were wearing tight shorts, and they looked like martial artists. Some had dusty faces, but the details showed a sense of wealth. Some wore Confucian robes, and they looked like scholars even in the hustle and bustle. Some had their heads covered and long robes covered, dressed like "Shake" - the people of Dajin called those who traveled through the deserts and Gobi in the Western Regions for a living "Shake", and there were many horse bandits and robbers among them.

Meng Qi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he saw a black-robed boy of about sixteen or seventeen sitting at the table in the corner. Although his face was different, there was a black bird pattern on his black robe, which made Meng Qi recognize that this person was Shang Yi at a glance.

Xuan Bei saw Meng Qi's expression, glanced at Shang Yi and said:

"Have you seen this person!?"

Meng Qi's heart suddenly lifted when he heard this, and he shook his head and said:

"Master, I haven't seen him, but he doesn't look very old, but he dares to come here alone!"

Xuan Bei's eyes flashed with admiration and said:

"Not bad, careful observation!

According to the information in the temple, this young man has only appeared in the vast sea for about half a year. It seems that his name is Huai Kong. He went to Yuhai a month ago. Along the way, he traveled with Qinggong while beheading horse bandits. Those who opened the nine orifices have died in his hands.

And he suddenly returned to Liushaji some time ago and stayed here. Some people suspected that he was injured and recuperated here, and some people suspected that he was About to break through, waiting for the opportunity here!"

"Hiss!!!"

Meng Qi pretended to be shocked and took a breath, whispering:

"Then he is also on the human list..."

Although he didn't finish his words, Xuan Bei understood what Meng Qi meant and said:

"His realm should be a little worse. Although he has achieved the unity of heaven and man, the top few people on the human list have already achieved the unity of heaven and man. They only stay in the awakening realm in order to truly achieve the return to the original nature and ascend to heaven in one step!

However, with such strength, at least he has reached the top ten on the human list. It seems that the ranking of the human list will change when the next three lists are released!"

Although the two did not control their voices, it was strange that the people passing by seemed not to hear their voices.

"Five, five, five!"

"Haha, three sixes! Drink three bowls!"

"Damn, how did I lose again!"

In such a noisy environment, a young-looking man took a sip of wine, frowned and slapped the bowl, stood up and shouted: "Boss, your wine is not strong enough, is it mixed with water?"

Suddenly, all the sounds in the lobby stopped abruptly. Those who were playing drinking games, throwing dice, talking, drinking alone, and eating food all kept their original movements for a short time as if time had frozen.

The woman in a black dress, who might be the shopkeeper or the proprietress, raised her head, her eyebrows were erected, and her eyes were wide open:

"Drink if you want, drink if you don't want to, get out!"

Puff, Meng Qi almost spit out saliva, this proprietress is really unique!

The young man who complained about the strong liquor being mixed with water did not expect such an answer at all, and stood there stupidly for a while.

"Haha." The stiff crowd laughed, as if they had expected that the young man would be treated like this.

"Haha, I'm dying of laughter. Someone actually dared to yell at Jiu Niang."

"Don't talk to me. I'm almost laughing. Where did this young man come from?"

"Jiu Niang didn't mix water into the wine. It was clearly water... Uh-huh, don't cover my mouth."

"If I don't cover your mouth, do you want to be kicked out, or drink a basin of Jiu Niang's foot washing water?"

The young man was probably walking in the martial arts world for the first time. Facing such a situation, his face turned red. He couldn't get angry, nor could he endure it...

Fortunately, there was an old martial arts man who often walked here who was his companion. He stood up and whispered a few words in his ear, persuading him to sit down again.

The young man buried his head and gritted his teeth, but he didn't dare to get angry, which surprised Meng Qi.

After walking up the stairs, Xuan Bei, who was walking in front, suddenly spoke with a rare smile in his tone: "Qu Jiuniang, whose background is unknown, opened the "First Inn in the Vast Sea" here ten years ago. At first, she was alone and had outstanding appearance, which caused a lot of trouble. However, all those who dared to take advantage of her were treated as serious, some were left outside the corpse collection, and some were hung naked on the wine banner of the inn. After that, the troubles decreased. Everyone knew that Qu Jiuniang was not a character to be messed with, and suspected that she was a master of the Outer Scenery Realm."

"Outer Scenery Realm? How old is she?" Meng Qi was shocked, and secretly complained, Master, you didn't show any mercy when you talked about the Outer Scenery Realm, and your mortal heart is still there!

Xuan Bei stepped on the last step of the stairs: "Probably thirty-five or thirty-six, I haven't used my clairvoyance to see, so I'm not sure."

Well, she is well maintained, but this kind of Outer Scenery Realm master may still look like this in another ten years... Meng Qi nodded gently.

At the same time, Meng Qi's heart moved. When he was in the six reincarnation spaces, Shang Yi had said that he had joined the Immortal Traces. The person who guided Shang Yi to join, could it be the innkeeper Qu Jiuniang? He also has another identity in the Immortal Traces, but I don't know which legendary immortal it is!

When Meng Qi was stunned, the three of them had already arrived outside the guest room. Xuan Bei turned to Meng Qi and Zhen Hui and said, "The master has to do evening lessons, and you don't relax either."

"Yes, Master." After the two of them answered respectfully, they pushed the door and entered their own room.

There was only a bed, a table and two chairs in the room, which was old but not messy. Meng Qi and Zhen Hui did not say much, one sitting on a chair and the other on a bed, and began to meditate.

Meng Qi did not practice other kung fu, but focused on the ancestral orifice, and the true qi went up, slowly stimulating this entrance.

In the past six months, Meng Qi has condensed the remaining three orifices of the eye orifice. He only needs to take the "Tiancong Pill" to break through after adjusting his body and mind in the next few days.

Shang Yi watched the three people enter the inn from a distance, but he knew very well in his heart that the information that Xuanbei left Shaolin Temple and appeared in Liushaji had been passed on by people in Shaolin Temple.

Now, Xuanbei's enemy, the crying old man, came out of retreat specifically for this matter and came to the nearby area, waiting for Xuanbei's arrival in front of the graves of Xuanbei's wife and children.

This time, Xuanbei will pay the price of serious injury to defeat the crying old man, but the crying old man's disciple, An Guoxie, will capture Meng Qi and abolish Meng Qi's dantian and limbs, in order to interrogate him about the "illusion method".

For this incident, Shang Yi also wanted to intervene, not to help Meng Qi out of the predicament, but to help Xuanbei and completely leave the crying old man in the vast sea.

First, the crying old man was full of evil, and his disciples killed countless horse bandits; second, when he went to Yuhai, there were horse bandits under An Guoxie. This time, the crying old man appeared here to block Xuanbei, and it was hard to guarantee that he did not have the idea of ​​killing this young knight in advance.

As for investing in Master Xuanbei, although he has the idea, he is not urgent. After all, Xuanbei's growth may not be as fast as Shang Yi. Even Shang Yi has become a Dharma body, while Xuanbei is still at the peak of the external scene!

More importantly, Shang Yi wants to use this to become famous.

For a Jianghu person, isn't the best way to become famous to step on other masters to get to the top?

But Shang Yi is just a Jianghu person after all. If he directly challenges those masters on the human list, he still has concerns that he will attract some people's targeting and the court's calculations.

After all, a hot-blooded young man who has just entered the Jianghu is a genius with a demonic talent. He is the best chess piece to disrupt the chess game. If Shang Yi himself is not strong enough, he will sink into the chess game of those in power!

Shang Yi himself is strong enough, so he is naturally not afraid of these, but he does not want to distract his energy from practicing!

The Dragon and Snake Romance describes it very well. When learning Chinese martial arts for the first time, one is full of energy and spirit, and is determined to become stronger. This is the dragon; but when training in the martial arts world, one does not control his mind, sinks into various calculations, loses the spirit of practicing martial arts, and also begins to use various calculations in the chess game to profit for himself. This is the transformation from dragon to snake; and only by controlling the heart and regaining the original intention can one transform from a snake to a dragon again.

Wang Chao's energy is like the transformation of the dragon and snake, so he can quickly master the dragon and snake combination taught by Tang Zichen, and even reach the highest level of Chinese martial arts.

Therefore, even though Shang Yi now feels that he is powerful, he is unwilling to get involved in those various calculations!

Retracting his gaze, Shang Yi used his telepathy to contact Qu Jiuniang at the counter and said:

"Yuanjun, did you notice the little monk who paid just now!? He is my teammate in the Six Paths of Reincarnation Space, with unlimited potential. I will introduce him to the Xianji Organization!"

Qu Jiuniang paused slightly when she heard this, and then continued to calculate the bill as if nothing had happened, cursing in her heart:

"Stinky boy, don't use telepathy casually, do you like to pry into secrets so much!?" (End of this chapter)
