Today I hold the world

Walking from the front of the village to the inside, crossing the slope and the mountain road is flat land, like the growth rings of green onions and trees. There are many stone pillars on the outermost layer. Those pillars can be seen at a glance. If you insist on distinguishing, the slope section is counted as Outside the village, the high flat land is considered the inner village.

There was heavy snow falling, and looking down at the village from the sky, it looked like a picture of an ice phoenix spreading its wings. The back of the wings was a high level ground, and there was a statue of a god more than [-] feet high in the center, which happened to be the place where the aura was most abundant.

As soon as you step on the high ground, you can see the central square in the distance. There are hundreds of casual cultivators sitting on the ground, meditating and meditating.

The closer you get to the central square, the more peaceful and peaceful you can feel it. Even if someone is talking, they try their best to speak in a low voice, for fear of disturbing other people around.

Most of the casual cultivators who passed by the five people were not high-level. Seeing the elders surnamed Kou, they all cast respectful glances, nodded or greeted verbally, and went about their own things. Mountain folks in small villages.

Here, there are not many rules, and people are calm.

The two old people brought Zhong Ziyan and his party to the central square of Lingtai Village, and they didn't speak, only leaving time for the three of them to watch quietly for a while.

It's not the first time Qingsongzi has come here, he is like a half-master, he just thinks he is entertaining Zhong Ziyan and Tao Hanting, and Zhong Tao and the two have seen the world, so they won't be fascinated by this scene all at once He stopped, looked at it for a while, smiled and nodded to indicate that he could continue walking.

Walking westward from the square, the number of people began to decrease, and every person who appeared was at least at the beginning of foundation establishment. Kou Zhen said:

"This is the place where distinguished guests from outside live. I will take the three of you to find a place to live. I will introduce Senior Zeng here in the evening. Let's discuss it in detail."

There are wooden buildings standing in front of them, simple and quiet, the two of them took Zhong Ziyan and his party to pick the one near the mountain, where a boy in his teens was waiting with his elf eyes, and he would put his little hand into his thick chest from time to time. Inside the fox fur jacket, he took out a fiery red spirit bead to keep warm.

Kou Zhuang said to the little boy: "It's disgusting, it's a good idea to entertain these three distinguished guests, this building is temporarily lent to them, don't be negligent and negligent."

The little boy grinned and nodded: "Don't worry, the two grandpas hurry up, I'll entertain these three seniors."

The elders surnamed Kou seemed to love this little boy very much, they touched their heads with a kind smile, and saluted Zhong Ziyan and Qingsongzi:

"The three of you will take a short rest. If you have time to relax, you can order the three of you to walk around. There is also a trading alley here. Sometimes the things inside may be surprising."

Zhong Ziyan said: "The two brothers will take care of themselves."

When the second elder left, he gave Qingsongzi a volume of secret records, and then the little boy imitated the adults and made a gesture of invitation, and said strangely: "My name is Hui, please come in, the three seniors. The best in our village The wine is 'Baiguo Niang', and the best tea is 'Mao Lingfeng'. Both the wine and the teahouse are prepared, and I will make up for it soon when it runs out.

If you want to visit Lingtai Village, you have to give me three first-order spirit stones, and you have the right to make friends. "

Hearing this, Zhong Ziyan stepped into the restaurant, laughed lightly: "Little Taoist friend is really born smart...why do you want to make friends?"

Hui Kuosuan waited for the three of them to enter the small building to sit at the table, turned around and quickly closed the wooden door to prevent the cold air from entering, poured tea for the three of them neatly, and rolled their big eyes like elves, "Since Grandpa Kou brought this place, The three seniors must be good people.

I am also a good person, and a good person can make friends with a good person, right? "

Green pine nuts twisted their beards and asked: "Little baby, what is a good person?"

Hui Kou stood up straight, as if answering a question from the school teacher: "I will not harm seniors, and seniors will not harm me, we are good people to each other.

Senior hurt me, I didn't hurt senior, senior is a bad person to me.

I harmed my senior, but my senior didn't harm me, I was a bad person to my senior.

We harm each other, we are each other's bad people. "

Qingsongzi was stunned for a moment. It was indeed the first time he heard this kind of truth from a child. Although the words were simple, the principles of self-interest and mutual benefit were quite deep.

Zhong Ziyan exclaimed in rare admiration: "A child can be taught!"

Hui was disgusted and quickly responded: "I can learn by myself, I don't need you to teach me."

Tao Hanting asked curiously, "How old are you?"

"Ten years old, one level of qi training, water and fire spiritual roots. I am an orphan, and my sister has been taking care of me. She is about to build a foundation now. After she builds a foundation, I don't need to be a doorman anymore. My cultivation is very high. I will soon be able to catch up with the seniors." The response seemed nonsensical, but it actually blocked Tao Hanting's follow-up questions, and he was very confident in the practice at a young age.

In Zhong Ziyan's view, this child is as smart as a seventeen or eighteen-year-old, and has good aptitude. When he grows up, he is likely to build a foundation, and even form a pill.

"Okay, let's make friends with fellow daoist.

Qingfengzi, the poor Taoist priest, these two are Qingsongzi and fellow Taoist Hanting. They are newcomers to your land and would like to ask, is there a group of casual cultivators from Wild Horse Valley entering the village today? "Zhong Ziyan took out ten first-order spirit stones and handed them to him while asking.

Hui Kuo's eyes lit up, he held it in his hand for a moment, and put three pieces into his pocket: "Three pieces are enough, it's enough to inquire about the news.

There are a lot of people coming to Wild Horse Valley, and there is a fat senior with a big gourd on his back who is especially conspicuous. When he first came to the village, he had a fight with three seniors who established the foundation. "

Zhong Ziyan nodded and took back the spirit stone with a smile, and said: "Then I will trouble you to pass on a message, just say that I called him to come here to narrate the story, as long as you give your name, he will come with you."

"Okay, you wait." Hui Kuosu poured tea for the three of them again, and trotted into Xuese, leaving Zhong Ziyan and the three of them to start discussing the matter.

Qingsongzi took out the secret record given by Kou Zhuang. The jade slips were wrapped in the ancient color cloth scroll, and opening it was the method of [green cast ice armor] body training.

Tao Hanting said: "These two are kind-hearted. Before we do anything, they have already given the body training method."

Qingsongzi sighed, and recalled the past: "When I was young, I followed them here to worship and learn Taoism under the knees of Reverend Lie Ni. Reverend Lie Ni is the two young children who saw the idols when they entered the village, and he is Dongfang Daoist The only disciple he took in in his later years was well-informed, and now more than half of the villagers in Lingtai Village grew up under his guidance.

When he died more than a hundred years ago, tens of thousands of casual cultivators from Makino Malin were sent to send him off, and passed down to the generation of Kou family brothers. His prestige was not as good as before.

I have a good relationship with both of them, and there is still some trust in this. "

Zhong Ziyan recalled what Kou Zhen said when he left, and asked, "Is that senior who is the head of Lingtai Village?"

"Exactly. His real name is 'Zeng Hu', and he is a disciple of Patriarch Wan Jianyun of Shenhu Mountain. He was sent by Patriarch Wan to sit in Lingtai Village. The three of them discuss all major events in this village.

Usually, that person just sits and cultivates in Houcun Dongfu. He was severely injured in the battle of the Northland Demon Disaster that year, and his cultivation has only reached the middle stage of Golden Core so far, and his lifespan will also be exhausted, so there is no hope. "

This is also the reason why the brothers surnamed Kou are eager to ask the green pine nuts to help after they form alchemy. It is true that the previous generation is clean and the lamp is dry, and the younger generation is still in the stage of diligent pursuit and hard work, and there is no trustworthy person to carry the beam.

We chatted for a long time, and the big event was approaching, Qingsongzi held the [Green Casting Ice Armor] jade slip, "I'm going to expand four copies of this body training method right now, time is running out, and I have to succeed in cultivation before the two fierce battles. "

Zhong Ziyan nodded in agreement, and Qingsongzi went upstairs to do things by himself.

After only Zhong Ziyan and Tao Hanting were left here, Zhong Ziyan remained silent, thinking about something in his heart.

Tao Hanting thought for a while, and asked using the method of sound transmission: "Master...do you want to use the unique momentum here to gather thousands of casual cultivators for future affairs?"

Zhong Ziyan glanced at Tao Hanting, nodded his head, this matter could not be completed in a day, but since he read "The History of the Cang Snake", he has made up his mind to make plans.

Tao Hanting's ability to guess his intentions so quickly is enough to show that this fellow of his family is by no means mediocre.

Seeing that he still wanted to ask questions, Zhong Ziyan shook his head, keeping his secret.This means that it is not the time to discuss this matter.

When the two of them finished drinking two cups of tea, Chang Zizai's simple and honest laughter came from outside the door. Hui Kuosuan opened the door and came in together. The three of them sat around a table, and the little thing ran to the back door of the cabinet to play with His fire spirit bead.

Chang Zizai said happily: "I have already found something to greet those people. After a while, the Azure Snake King will fight the Eagle Beast, and the little bugs in the lake are hibernating. Pull them to form a combined formation and cast a net to catch them. Xiao Chong, after catching a batch, go to the tree to grab the ice fruit, and you can earn some spirit stones for everyone, what do you think?"

Zhong Ziyan nodded and said, "That's right, this matter is appropriate.

In addition, Han Ting and I came back from Yanze Lake earlier, and saw [Five Elements Crystal] condensed in the coral grass. Although this thing is not a big profit, it is enough for everyone in Yema Valley to compete for it. It is not difficult to earn some spirit stones . "

Chang Zizai happily said: "Okay, let me handle this matter, you only need to show up for a moment. Besides, there is another matter that I don't know how to deal with."

"You said."

"Some of those people want to enter the snake's nest to retrieve eggs, shall we help?"

"Don't help. A small benefit is a favor, but a large benefit is a disaster. How can benevolence and righteousness in the world be given in vain? You should make it clear to them that you only protect people with small benefits. If there are greedy people, they will do things independently. Life and death have nothing to do with us."

"it is good."

The three chatted for a while, and when it got dark, Hui Kuo didn't know where to bring a small food jar, and ate his meal by himself, when someone knocked on the door to ask, he rushed to open the door.
