Chapter 31 31. The cicada wakes up before the golden wind moves
Rumble.
The stone door opens.
Song Yan walked into the cave as usual.
It was midsummer and it was raining outside the cave.
The gray wind and pale heavy rain almost flooded the entire mountaintop, making people's vision narrow.
This is just like the situation that Song Yan can't see clearly.
But you still have to get through life.
Escape is impossible.
As soon as he entered the cave, Miss Qiu raised her head happily, called "Brother Song", and then hurried over with a towel.
Song Yan wiped her damp hair and looked into the hole.
In other caves, the furnaces and cauldrons have been replaced long ago, but the two women in his cave are still alive and kicking.
The powerful vitality of the multi-tailed fox clan is vividly reflected in the princess. Even though this beauty is old, she is still delicate and lovely. Her skin is tight and elastic. When she is happy, she is more beautiful than before. The little lady in Zhiqiu is even more wonderful.
Not far away, in the flower bed, mysterious flowers and grasses were already growing abundantly. Song Yan couldn't help but walked over, stopped, and listened to Cao Xuerou pointing to a certain flower and a certain grass.
Cao Xuerou seems to be very good at taking care of these flowers and plants, and is also familiar with these flowers.
Song Yan asked her this.
She only said that when the girl was in the Western Shu Kingdom, her grandfather once found a book of Xuanhua flowers from somewhere and gave it to her, which contained these information.
When I was a princess, I had no time or energy to deal with intrigues and royal affairs. However, I didn’t expect that now that I am here, I have time and opportunity.
"Song Yan."
As the princess spoke, her eyes were moist, and she stood up and got close to Song Yan like a little woman. Her face was full of happiness and joy. This is "because The joy that comes from the dual effects of infatuation and wanting to forget the pain.”
Song Yan held her waist and suddenly said: "Tomorrow I will go to the market at the foot of the mountain. Do you want anything?"
"No."
The princess shook her head gently. .
Song Yan suddenly asked again: "Want to drink?"
The princess was stunned, but nodded lightly.
Song Yan smiled and said: "Bring you some."
"Mr. Song, thank you." The princess hugged the man in front of her tightly.
If you have good wine, you can live a life of drunkenness, indulge in desires, and never think of other unnecessary pains.
Drinking and sex can hurt people.
But if a person is already hurt, wine and sex become the last comfort.
The next day
Song Yan went down the mountain and went to the low-level market outside Shadow Puppet Peak by a familiar route.
Today he did not cover up, but wore a black official disciple uniform.
Over the past many years, he has figured out one thing: in the market opened by this sect, you can never buy any core items, whether it is a leather master, a talisman master, Don't even think about buying the alchemist's spells or the unique skin control technique of Shadow Puppet Peak.
Not to mention items such as realm improvement.
In addition to the "Bigu Pill", the most popular elixir sold here is also a pill called "Xuanqi Pill".
The Xuanqi Pill, to put it bluntly, is the "little Xuanling Pill that was not so successfully refined."
The official disciples like Song Yan are allotted one pill of "Xiao Xuan Ling Dan" every month. With the practice of "Xuan Qi Guidance Technique", they are better than the furnace cauldron.
But the inferior so-called "Xuanqi Pill" can help people in the world to improve their skills and even directly break through certain bottlenecks because of the scarcity of Xuanqi inside.
Even if there is no breakthrough, this elixir can also solve many strange poisons that have no solution in the world. It can be said to be a "universal elixir".
However, "Xuanqi Pill" can only be purchased with contribution points.
This makes "contribution points" become a "high-end currency" in the eyes of people here.
In short, this is a market that fools handymen and people in the world. Its main function is to connect the mortal forces of external subordinates.
The people being traded here are naturally high-end goods who will not reveal the secrets of the sect.
The real market is probably the "Qingxi Market where Shadow Puppet Peak goes to buy animal skins".
But Qingxi City is a mixed bag of fish and dragons, and it's very chaotic.
If you want to go to that kind of place, you either have to form a group with big forces, or you have to be a fierce person who has passed the test. Otherwise, as soon as you leave the market, you may lose both your people and your goods.
However, Song Yan came to this market place ostensibly to go shopping and consume contribution points, but in fact he kept his ears open and learned about the situation outside through the conversations of people in the world.
Before, all he knew was how the Blood Spear Sect cleaned up the remnants of the Wei Dynasty, how it sent the Wei royal family to the Puppet Palace, and how it established a new dynasty with the country name "Jin".
But in the past six months, he has heard some unusual information.
First, the "Tide of Demonic Beasts" invaded from the Guyan Wasteland in the north of Jin State. The troops defending the border areas of Jin State were actually overwhelmed, and even the leading general was trampled to death by the monster beasts.
Now, there is news that "Jin State is moving its capital". A new dynasty that has only been established for two years is actually moving its capital?
What are you hiding from?
Song Yan’s information channels are limited.
But because of the princess, he had learned a piece of news a long time ago: King Wei was still in contact with the Mountain and Sea Troll-Ogre Kingdom, which was located to the north of Wei.
The combination of these messages gave him an unspeakable feeling of suffocation, which was the kind of panic felt by birds in the forest and insects on the ground after sensing a natural disaster.
Song Yan spent 3 contribution points to buy a cart of top-notch fine wines in the mortal world. These fine wines would be delivered to the gate of the main peak of Nanzhu Peak by people from the world, which was very convenient.
Then he continued to pace, looked up at the small wooden pavilion with the "Tibetan Gong Tower" hanging on the edge of the market square, and stepped in.
The "Zanggong Building" is a rather special feature of this city.
But this specialness does not mean that the things it sells are good, but that this is a place that is opened in Xianjia Market but does business among Jianghu people.
What is sold here are all mortal skills in the world.
Of course, the skills that can be sold here can be considered top-notch skills in the world, and may even be touted as "magic skills."
But no matter how powerful the magical power is, it cannot withstand a simple "air arrow technique".
This is "No matter how good your sword skills are, you can shoot him down with one shot".
Therefore, this "Tibetan Gong Building" can only be located on the edge of the market, and it is impossible for monks to come here in the past.
Before Song Yan stepped into the building, he heard various conversations coming from the building.
“Qingfeng Villa was wiped out, but its unique skills have never left the world. I didn’t expect it to be hidden in this place of the Immortal Family.”
“We don’t accept gold and silver here, only gold and silver. Contribution points, if you want to buy, do some business and exchange contribution points."
"Old man Nanshan's unique skill "Mahamudra" only requires 6 contribution points."
"Zidian Knife's "The Art of Drawing the Sword", 5 contribution points, no gold or silver."
These shouts paused because Song Yan walked in.
Many eyes stared over and fell on the uniform of his official disciple.
Suddenly, someone walked out of the inner hall. He was slightly fat and had a sinister face. There was a friendly smile hidden in his evil face. From the outside, he looked like a ruthless character who was robbing families and homes.
At this time, the man said respectfully: "Master, you are here. What do you want to order? But our small shop is all about martial arts."
Song Yan glanced around.
After entering the second level of Lianxuan and mastering the spells, he clearly understood that the casting of spells actually depends on the environment. To put it bluntly, if you want to cast a spell in a place with very little profound energy, you may not be able to do it even after a few spells. After that, all you have to honor is the physical strength that the realm brings to you.
Jianghu Gongfa actually focuses on "physical strength".
That is a technique developed using the power of the body, a killer move.
Song Yan believes that if he has no magic and relies purely on physical strength, he may not be an opponent against a master of martial arts who is proficient in skills and killing moves. If that master of martial arts is proficient in a certain weapon, then he should It's no match at all.
Therefore, based on the principle of "since it is impossible to increase the upper limit, let's mention the shortcomings", he wanted to buy a few Jianghu exercises and practice them to perfection in case of emergency.
What if one day he escapes to Jianghu?
If a natural disaster strikes and floods surge into the sky, who knows where the fish in the water will be carried by the big waves?
After some picking and choosing.
Song Yan spent 187 contribution points to purchase 23 books on Jianghu's secret techniques, including boxing and palm techniques, weapon techniques, hidden weapon techniques, body techniques, poison techniques, clever techniques and even horizontal training techniques, as well as A special method called "Turtle Breathing Technique".
Song Yan glanced at the remaining contribution points: 2984 points.
Since Senior Brother Zhang refused to accept his shadow puppets anymore, his monthly contribution points have doubled from 160 to 310.
Coupled with the 2 contribution points provided by the two furnaces in the cave every month, it is quite sufficient.
He packed 23 copies of Jianghu's secret knowledge into a bag, slung it over his shoulder, and left the Tibetan Gong Building.
After a long time, a young man in red and brocade clothes walked out of the building. He glanced at the fat man who had greeted Song Yan before, frowned and asked: "Laughing Butcher, the one who just looked about the same age as me People, who? ”
The fat man known as the Laughing Butcher said: "Young Master, he is an official disciple of Nanzhu Peak, his name is Song Yan."
The person known as the Young Master is the young master of the Blood Spear Sect. The son's name is Ma Zhao.
At this time, Ma Zhao sneered and said: "I bought so many secrets from the world, it seems that I am not doing well in the sect."
The Laughing Butcher hurriedly said: "Young Master , these are not our business.”
Ma Zhao. Hahaha laughed: "What are you afraid of? I'll teach you to be a good boy. These days, I have given many furnaces and cauldrons to many masters of the Puppet Sect, and I have rich connections. Even ordinary disciples can't stand my sight. What's more, Song Yan It’s a puppet joke.”
Immediately, he showed off how Song Yan of Linglong Valley was beaten three times by Master Shi.
After that, he added: "Now that my father has ascended the throne, he is the emperor of the Jin Dynasty. The eldest brother is weak. If he dies, I will be the prince. These people rely on their own mysterious roots and are arrogant. According to me, Said, he should bow to me Please say hello.”
The Laughing Butcher was stunned for a moment, and opened his mouth a few times, wanting to say something, but he also knew that in these years, the young master had been in and out of the Puppet Sect, wandering among the monks, and the young man was proud and domineering. .is also normal.
That’s what he said.
“Young Master is right.”
The Laughing Butcher chuckled in agreement.
