Chapter 4 Village
End of meeting.
the next day.
After sorting himself out, Zhou Xuefeng walked to the village not far away.
Several children looked at Zhou Xuefeng curiously, but no one came to talk to him. Not far away, a farmer carrying a hoe blocked the way.
"Child, where do you come from?"
"Uncle, my whole family was robbed and I am the only one left. I would like to ask if I can live in this village for a while."
Seeing the farmer's thinking expression, Zhou Xuefeng frowned: It seems that this village is not a good choice, probably not.
"Then come with me, and I will take you to the village chief."
…
The village chief looks to be just over fifty, energetic and healthy, with few gray hairs. Even if the muscles in both arms are not deliberately tightened, you can still see that they are very powerful.
He rejected Zhou Xuefeng's request to settle down.
"Sorry, kid, I'm afraid we can't let you live in our village."
A little disappointed, but nothing. It's a person's right to let them live or not.
"However, the village can give you some dry food. If you are willing, there is someone in the village who wants to go to Yuehai City and can give you a ride."
Zhou Xuefeng was very sincere as he bowed to express his thanks.
"Thank you."
After having a full meal at the village chief's house, in the afternoon, he gave Zhou Xuefeng some dry food and more than twenty copper soul coins, and asked the villagers to take Zhou Xuefeng with them.
"village head?"
The farmer carrying the hoe was a little puzzled. There was no shortage of food for a child in the village, and the child looked good, so why not leave genes that could improve the village.
"At such an age, he speaks well and has a calm demeanor. If he is not a noble, then he may have a blood feud that stimulates his growth overnight. No matter what the situation is, the village cannot afford the risk."
The former will lead to a search by the enemy's hostile nobles, while the latter is afraid that the entire village will be involved in the enemy's revenge.
…
Zhou Xuefeng didn't know much about Yuehai City.
After seeing the city wall from a distance, Zhou Xuefeng jumped off the cart and said goodbye to the villagers.
"Thank you uncle for taking me for a while."
He could roughly guess the village chief's considerations. In this case, he would bother them less and go into the city separately. The villagers on the cart watched Zhou Xuefeng go away and sighed: If only my children were as sensible as this doll.
Thinking of the naked buttocks like a mud monkey at home, I shook my head helplessly.
Enter the city.
I recalled my actions along the way.
"This Yuehai City should be in the northeast of Xingluo City. Judging from its size, it should be an important economic town."
Although I haven't visited Xingluo City much and have been trapped in the Duke's Mansion, before leaving, I saw the flow of people entering and exiting the city gate from a distance, etc., so it doesn't hurt to make random assumptions.
"I hope someone will be kind enough to take me in for a while. When I get my first soul ring, I will definitely repay him well."
Thinking like this, Zhou Xuefeng felt a little worried.
The atmospheres in the Star Luo Empire and the Tiandou Empire are very different, and there is not much kindness towards strangers. If they were all like the village chief, I'm afraid this city wouldn't be a very good place to live.
"If that doesn't work, the only option is to go to Qibao Store."
Let Ning Yulin arrange some resources within his authority and draw them himself to live on. Wandering in the city until night, I still haven't found a place to stay. The copper soul coins the village chief kindly gave me were too luxurious to stay in a hotel, and they might not be enough.
Fortunately, there was no curfew, otherwise I might have been arrested and thrown into a cell. Zhou Xuefeng found a remote corner, protected from the wind, and slept in his clothes.
…
within the space.
There were only An Lan and Ning Yulin. The other two people didn't know what they were doing, neither sleeping nor meditating.
"I arrived at a place called Yuehai City. Do any of you know about it?"
Zhou Xuefeng asked.
"Let me think about it, I seem to have read some information a few days ago." Ning Yulin recalled: "Yuehai City, I remembered it. It is said that every time the moon is full, the moonlight will fluctuate and spread like ocean waves, spreading throughout the city. Hence the name. There is a high-level soul master academy in the city called Moon Soul Academy."
Soul Master Academy?
"Is there a junior soul master academy?"
Soul Master Academy is a good place.
Ning Yulin shook his head.
"I don't know the location of the junior soul master academies in the Star Luo Empire yet, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect doesn't seem to have included them specifically. If you want, you can only wait for me to collect them for a while."
"Okay. I haven't found a place to live yet, so give me some gold coins."
"I thought about it, and that might not work."
Zhou Xuefeng's eyes widened and Ning Yulin said awkwardly.
"With my current status, I have crossed half of the continent to arrange the Qibao Shop in the Star Luo Empire. Although the other party will most likely listen, they will definitely report it to the sect, which will arouse suspicion."
What is a little kid doing so much for?
With a long sigh, Zhou Xuefeng kicked away his chair and lay flat on the ground.
"You are all brilliant, but I am left to go through wind and rain alone. It's not fair at all!"
There is no way, everyone is still young now, so far apart, we can't provide any substantial help at all.
An Lan changed the topic.
"The Qi method is called Miaozhijue. Have you practiced it? I feel that if it is paired with the meditation method, the training speed is amazing. Moreover, it seems to be able to absorb attribute energy. My martial soul has the power of the sun and fire attributes. I can breathe according to the method inside. When you breathe it in, you feel the breath very clearly, and when you absorb it, you can feel an obvious burning sensation, but it doesn’t hurt your body.”
Zhou Xuefeng waved his hand. He was always on the road and had no time to practice that thing.
"If you say so." Ning Yulin pondered: "I seem to have this feeling too, but the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect has no obvious attributes. It is not very obvious. It just feels very comfortable when practicing. However, I think it is our original Cultivation qualifications. On the surface, we have two levels, but we have innate soul power. Now we are just replenishing the water from the bucket. Once we obtain the first soul ring, the speed will probably slow down. "
"That's true."
An Lan sighed, and after a moment, he suddenly said again.
"According to the current speed of cultivation, we can obtain the first soul ring in seven to eight months. What do you think?"
Sitting up, Zhou Xuefeng said quickly.
"The performance of the martial soul is influenced by the soul, blood and body of the soul master. As far as my Blue Silver Grass is concerned, the blood side of this triangle is obviously insufficient. For the future, I plan to choose the first soul ring. The old bluesilver grass increases the power of blood."
An Lan nodded and continued.
"I don't have many choices. Fire-attributed birds, but there may be very few within a hundred years. They show the qualifications and can't get investment from above. It is estimated that they will be collectively hunting souls by then, and there is a high probability that they will be hundred-year fire-attributed souls." Beasts, or fast ground animals, the probability of flying birds is very small.”
The two looked at Ning Yulin.
"I... although the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda has a clear soul ring ratio. But I still want to try if I can change the restrictions of the Glazed Pagoda in terms of soul ring selection."
