Beiyin Great Sage - Chapter 555
Chapter 555 Turtle
“This thing… is not ordinary!”
Looking at the two slices of ‘Rouzhi’ placed in front of him, Zhou Yi looked distressed, rubbed the space between his brows, and put it aside for the time being.
First of all, the old Huang of Hengbaoju has a weird attitude and eager eyes, and then there are a few sudden thieves in the dark alley, which is unusual no matter how you look at it.
If we talk about coincidence,
What a coincidence!
Whether it is or not, for the sake of safety, Zhou Yi does not plan to go to Hengbaoju again, after all, he is not afraid of ten thousand but just in case.
It is Ganoderma lucidum that needs to find a way.
“Do not!”
Shaking his head, Zhou Yi said slowly:
“Ganoderma lucidum has been sold in Hengbaoju all the time. If it appears outside, I’m afraid it will arouse suspicion, so let’s put it on hold for now.”
Anyway, there is still a lot of money on hand, which is enough to support the consumption of Huanglong San for a period of time.
“Poor culture and rich martial arts, I can’t be bullied by sincerity!”
“Little Brother B!”
A slightly hasty voice came from outside the door:
“Come out, rewards are being distributed up and down the mountain!”
“Oh!”
Zhou Yi’s eyes lit up:
“It’s just in time.”
…
Lin Yunliu sat in the middle of the room, and there was a person standing on the left and right. Seeing Zhou Yi walking in, the expressions of several people were different.
“Brother Zhou.”
Liu Mengyan stood on the left and greeted warmly:
“You came.”
“Yeah.” Zhou Yi nodded, cupping his fists towards Lin Yunliu:
“Subordinate Zhou Yi, I have met the eldest lady.”
Lin Yunliu put down the teacup in his hand, and said slowly:
“I heard that you took the Ningzhen Sutra from the library?”
“Exactly.”
“The Ningxin Sutra comes from the Infinite Temple of Daoism that was dilapidated 30 years ago. It has a complete method of cultivating true energy. It seems that your ambition is not small.”
There was a slight displeasure on her face.
From the selection of exercises, one can see a person’s pursuit.
Zhou Yi was not willing to stop at body training, and there was nothing wrong with wanting a way of cultivating true energy.
But he knows very well that as long as he breaks through body training, the Lin family will definitely give him a method, but Zhou Yi refuses to take it and instead starts it first.
This is equivalent to wasting an opportunity to choose a skill.
Normal people will choose martial arts and agility to increase their strength, and only make plans after the marrow is perfected or even broken through.
As long as you have this ability, the Lin family will definitely not be stingy.
This also shows that,
Zhou Yi never intends to become the attachment of the Lin family from the bottom of his heart, otherwise why would he prepare the way out in advance.
“Condensing Heart Sutra? That’s right, although martial arts and body skills are good, the cultivation level is the foundation.” Liu Mengyan lightly tapped his hands and said with a smile:
“I guess Brother Zhou would choose it.”
Lin Yunliu rolled her eyes, knowing that Liu Mengyan was trying to smooth things over, and didn’t want to show obvious malice towards Zhou Yi.
Sighing lightly, she straightened her face:
“The Red Lotus Sect attacked a few days ago, Zhou Huyuan detected it in time, sent a message, and even killed three evil cult monsters, and they will be rewarded for their merits.”
“Reward: Three hundred taels of silver, two grains of Body Tempering Pill, promoted to the top guard.”
Zhou Yi hastily thanked:
“Thank you, Miss, for the reward!”
In the previous incidents, although many cult monsters were wiped out, the guards and nursing homes of the Lin family also suffered heavy losses. It is not until today that they have made a clear inventory and arranged for proper rewards.
The rewards are generous.
Three hundred taels of silver is enough to buy two heirloom mansions in Kunshan City, and the quenching body pill is even more valuable, far surpassing Huanglongsan.
A first-class guard has eight taels of monthly money, not counting the rewards for festivals and festivals, it is almost the limit that a body-training warrior can achieve.
Chen Long is the first-class guard.
Not to mention the previous Ningzhen Sutra.
Zhou Yi retired contentedly, and not long after, Liu Mengyan took the initiative to find him.
“problem occurs.”
Liu Mengyan’s serious face also made Zhou Yi realize that something was wrong. He has always been a low-level person in this world, and the news is far less well-informed than the other party. He couldn’t help asking curiously:
“What’s wrong?”
“Do you know Wu Tiantong?”
“Yellow Ant Army Wu Tiantong.”
Zhou Yi nodded:
“heard about it.”
“This person is very talented, he is less than 30 years old and already a martial artist with great qi, and the method he cultivates is extremely strange, and his strength is amazing.” Liu Mengyan took a deep breath and said:
“It is rumored that Wu Tiantong is the reincarnation of the Yellow Ant Great Immortal. With his powerful strength, he overwhelmed many leaders and coerced tens of thousands of bandits to bring chaos to one side.”
“he,”
“Now we are heading towards Kunshan City!”
“Well…” Zhou Yi frowned:
“The Yellow Ant Army is hard to deal with, but there have been constant internal and external troubles in Daliang in recent years. Kunshan City has been besieged several times, and it seems that there has never been any major chaos.”
“This time, what’s different?”
“Hey!” Liu Mengyan sighed softly, and said:
“The difference lies in Wu Tiantong. He is different from other bandit leaders. He not only pursues glory and wealth, but also wants to become a congenital master.”
“The Lin family is a wealthy family, almost generations have been gifted, so naturally he will not let it go this time.”
“The Lin family is on the mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, plus the family is excellent and skilled in martial arts, it is not comparable to ordinary bandits.” Zhou Yi shook his head:
“As long as Wu Tiantong is not stupid, he will not be boring himself.”
“At first, I thought so too.” Liu Mengyan looked sideways and said:
“But Wu Tiantong was called a Wu lunatic again. It’s not unreasonable. He has sent a message to the Lin family in advance, asking for a large amount of precious medicine and exercises. If he doesn’t give it, he will attack the mountain at any cost.”
“As he used to do…”
“Possible!”
“This is really…” Zhou Yi had a hard time understanding the thoughts of this kind of person, he couldn’t help being speechless, paused, and said:
“What is the Lin family going to do?”
“I don’t know either.” Liu Mengyan shook her head:
“However, depending on the situation, I may agree to some of them. I don’t know if Wu Tiantong will be satisfied if I try to calm down. In short, the matter is not so easy to solve.”
“Hey!” Zhou Yi sighed softly:
“How will the guards and nursing homes of the Lin family be arranged?”
Liu Mengyan shrugged and looked at him naturally:
“What do you think?”

Two hundred catties of white flour, one hundred catties of chestnut rice, seventy catties of bacon, three catties of salt, pots and pans…
In the donkey cart,
A lot of food and goods were neatly stacked. Zhou Yi held a piece of paper with densely written words in his hand, and kept comparing things.
“There is still oil, and it will not work without oil and water!”
“Bedding is not necessary. There are still some animal skins on the mountain that have not been processed, but you need to prepare an extra copy of the scythe and flint to start the fire, just in case it is needed.”
He doesn’t intend to live and die with the Lin family.
Although Liu Mengyan looks forward to it, it’s a matter of life and death, and you can’t be sloppy, even good friends can’t jump into the fire pit.
The Yellow Ant Army has approached Kunshan City, and Lin Yunliu also began to send the guards of Liuying Courtyard to the mountain, and arranged them at various checkpoints.
Zhou Yi found an excuse, came to the city to buy things, and planned to hide in the uninhabited mountains and forests, and then went down the mountain after the incident.
“I have a system, and now I still have exercises. As long as I put my mind to practice, I can achieve something. The future is promising, and there is no need to ask for trouble.”
“The big deal is that when I perfect the Ningxin Sutra, the Heavenly Bergamot, and the Pure Yang Iron Cloth, there will be very few great opponents in the world.”
“Just do it!”
The market was crowded with people and bustling.
The news that the yellow ants army is approaching has already begun to spread. As ordinary people, they know very little, but their instincts have already begun to get nervous.
The atmosphere in the city also began to tense.
Especially the wealthy households in the city began to hoard all kinds of things crazily.
Fortunately.
Zhou Yi has hundreds of taels of silver on hand, so it is not difficult to support it.
“Drive!”
“Drive!”
Buying good things, coming out of the market, and not far ahead in a donkey cart, a series of shouts came from the end of the street.
“Not let out?”
“Why did you close the city gate?”
“Isn’t it too early to close the city gate?”
“Gentlemen, we are from Huojiazhuang outside the city, so we can’t leave the city!”
“…”
The chaos and uproar made Zhou Yi frown.
“Go!”
Upstairs above the city gate, an armored sergeant shouted:
“There are bandits wandering outside. If you go out, you will die. The reason for closing the city gate is for your safety. Don’t be ignorant.”
“Wait until tomorrow, see if the bandit army outside is still there, if not, then open the city gate!”
“Wow…”
There was a lot of noise.
“why is it like this?”
“Aren’t there no bandit troops around a few days ago?”
“…”
Zhou Yi led the donkey cart, frowning:
“So fast?”
The ones appearing outside the city now should be just the outposts of the Yellow Ant Army, but it also shows that the army is coming, and it may not take long.
‘There’s still time, go up the mountain immediately after leaving the city. ‘
Before Zhou Yi could make a decision, suddenly dozens of horses galloped across the ground, causing dust to rise everywhere, causing constant exclamations.
Riders surrounded a person, the person looked flustered, and drove away the crowd with a long whip.
“Step aside!”
“Step aside!”
Pedestrians on the road dodged one after another, and those who couldn’t dodge were thrown out directly, and those who did it didn’t care about the lives of passers-by.
In the blink of an eye, the street was emptied, a path was made for these dozens of riders, and the city gate guard opened a gap to let them out of the city.
“It’s Governor Shi Xiu!”
In the crowd, a voice sounded:
“He is one of the three guards in the city, where is he going?”
“Could it be that he abandoned the city and fled?”
“Impossible, we have tens of thousands of defenders in Kunshan City, and there is an old fairy Lin sitting on the mountain. Nothing has happened in so many years, and it will be the same this time.”
“Xu Xu, what’s the urgent matter for Governor Shi?”
“Forget it, it looks like we won’t be able to leave the city today, let’s find a place to rest.”
“This is the reason!”
Zhou Yi, who was mixed in the crowd, looked thoughtful, stroked the sparse beard on his chin, pulled the rein of the donkey cart, and headed for his residence.
The next day.
The city gate is still not open.
Two days later.
The people waiting near the city gate were a little impatient, while Zhou Yi had a gloomy expression, and began to unload the goods after returning to his residence.
The situation is not right. It seems that it will be impossible to leave the city in a short time.
Since so…
Just hide in the city!
Anyway, the target of the Yellow Ant Army is the Lin family. As long as the city of Kunshan is not destroyed, there is no difference between hiding on the mountain and hiding in the city.
But just in case, you still need to make some preparations.
He first started digging frantically in a corner of the courtyard. First, he dug a straight hole several feet straight down, then expanded it to several square meters, and propped it up with wooden piles.
The excavated soil is either pushed into the ditch at night, or spread evenly across the courtyard.
He took some grass seeds and sprinkled them on the ground.
This kind of grass grows extremely fast, and it can cover the ground in half a month, creating a desolate scene that has been uninhabited for a long time.
Occasionally mixed with several kinds of wild mountain mushrooms, I believe that even experienced Jianghu people will not be able to detect abnormalities.
Immediately moved the necessary things into the ground, and made several ventilation holes to prevent the air from being blocked.
Place wooden boards at the hole, and the wooden boards are covered with a thick layer of thin soil.
Finally, I bought a dilapidated stone mill covered with moss from the market, and took a lot of effort to lift it to the entrance of the cave and press it on it.
in this way.
Even if it is him, he has to carry the Chunyang iron cloth shirt to move it away.
Others, even marrow refining martial artists, are afraid that there are very few who can move the stone mill, so there is no need to worry about being found in the dark room below.
but…
Still just in case, Zhou Yi prepared a second hidden exit, so that there is a way out if this entrance is discovered.
“Crack!”
I slapped my palm to shake off the dust. Looking at the faint candlelight and the full supplies in the underground darkroom, I felt a sense of security in my heart.
“Although there is a high probability that it will not be used, it is well prepared.”
There is no one in the city, and the Liu family has almost lost contact with each other. There is no news, and they don’t know the situation outside, so they can only plan for the worst.
A few days later.
Panic sounds came from outside.
Some people say that the city is broken and the bandit army has already entered the city. Some people say that it is impossible. In fact, the imperial court won a big victory outside.
In short, rumors are everywhere, and it is difficult to tell the truth from the false.
At this time, you can see the necessity of being in a high position. If you know a few upper-level figures, you should not be ignorant of others.
Most of the people are like this, they follow the trend, and there is no way to adapt to the changing situation in advance.
You can only take one step at a time.
and this,
often usher in the worst ending.
Zhou Yi will go out of the underground darkroom at night to check the situation in the city. Although he doesn’t know the specific situation, he has already noticed that the situation is getting worse.
Yellow Ant Army…
It seems that he has changed his strategy, instead of attacking the Lin family, he has become interested in Kunshan City.
“Liu Mengyan misled me!”
Next,
The city is broken.
