Chapter 288: The green python turns into a dragon, the feelings of two golden elixir people, the sorrows and joys of the world

Wanningfang City.

After Zhen Shisi took control of the protective formation, the entire city was sealed off like an iron barrel, making it difficult for the Southern Barbarians to fly.

Less than an hour.

The entire city was already bleeding like a river.

Not a single southern barbarian was left in hiding, and they were all killed.

The casual cultivators happily lined up in front of the gate of Zhenshi Division, carrying their bloody heads, waiting to receive their rewards.

This time there is turmoil.

Those who suffered the most were the major aristocratic families.

Not only were the stores looted.

Even the tribesmen who guarded the shops were mostly massacred by the Southern Barbarians.

At this time, major aristocratic families began to tidy up their shops and take stock of their losses. The Nangong family next door to the Fu family was the first to hang up a white lantern.

The Nangong family's shop array was destroyed.

Most of the entire store was destroyed by the bomb.

Several corpses covered with white cloth were placed in the main hall.

Only Nangong Yu, the youngest son of shopkeeper Nangong who was hiding in the secret room, survived. He handed a storage bag around his waist and his hands to Elder Nangong who was sitting in the main hall, and choked with sobs:

"Great Elder, when the Southern Barbarians invaded Fangshi, their first target was our big shops. Although my father and third uncle tried their best to protect the shops, they still couldn't"

To the end.

Nangong Yu was already crying.

This time he came to Fangshi just to tell his father that he was going to be a grandfather soon. Unexpectedly, the good news turned into bad news. This meeting became the last time for their father and son.

Elder Nangong took a deep breath:

"Dead people cannot be resurrected, Xiaoyu, you must express your condolences."

His father's body was placed in front of him.

How could Nangong Yu not be sad? His mother died not long after giving birth to him. His father never remarried. He dragged him up by pooping and peeing, and left his monthly salary to him. He thought that after building the foundation, , can share one or two things for his father, so that his father can be happy for the rest of his life, but he never thought that he would suddenly encounter the invasion of the southern barbarians.

Think about this.

The sadness in Nangong Yu's eyes turned into overwhelming hatred.

Revenge for killing his father.

He, Nangong Yu, must make the Yinan tribe pay for their debt with blood!

Gongsun's shop on the opposite side.

It was different from the sad atmosphere of the Nangong family.

At this time, the whole main hall of the shop was filled with a tense and murderous atmosphere. Gongsun Wenduan, who came from the clan, sat at the head.

The tribesmen who survived this catastrophe knelt on the ground tremblingly and trembled:

"Reporting to Elder Wen, at the beginning of the turmoil, I followed the family leader out of the Wanning Chamber of Commerce, but the family leader turned around and rushed into the Fu family shop. At that time, everyone in the city went crazy, and it was very chaotic. I also Not daring to stay outside, thinking of protecting the clan's treasures no matter what, he sneaked into the secret room and closed the magic circle."

"but"

"The head of the family has indeed bid for ten foundation-building pills, and the quality is still high."

The more he spoke.

Gongsun Wen's face became increasingly ugly.

Because Gongsun Run's life soul lamp has been extinguished.

That is to say.

This time they not only lost the phoenix blood wood, a relic of their ancestors, but also the entire clan, and the hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones they had accumulated over the past decade or so of living with tight belts were also missing.

Plus the loss of the store.

The only half-step Zifu in the clan also died.

The above three factors combined, for their Gongsun family, the losses were greater than the turbulence of the beast tide.

When Gongsun Wen thought of this, his scalp became numb.

Next.

The Gongsun family is afraid that they will have to keep their tail between their legs.

The tribesman at the bottom was suddenly unaware and still said angrily:

"Elder Wen, most of the foundation building pills have fallen into the hands of the Fu family. The Fu family dared to kill our head in the city. The Fu family doesn't take our Gongsun family seriously. Elder Wen, we have to let Zhenshisi will uphold justice and ask the Fu family to spit out the Foundation Establishment Pill to redress the injustice of our dead family leader!"

idiot!

Gongsun Wen endured it again and again.

That's why he didn't kick this idiot away.

The head of the family relied on his breakthrough to get to the Zi Mansion, and he couldn't wait to seek revenge on the Fu family, but he was killed unexpectedly. They didn't have time to do anything about it, and they dared to go to the world to vindicate the injustice. Isn't this asking for death?

And the head of the family is dead.

The Gongsun family's life is like walking on thin ice.

In the future, people from the Fu family will have to take a detour when they see them, so how can they dare to provoke the Fu family.

The Gongsun family has declined.

What he can do is to prevent the Gongsun family from being swallowed up by other aristocratic families, and wait until the future:

"Okay, stop howling. After hanging up the soul-calling flags outside, immediately organize people to open the shop and try to open it as soon as possible."

With the Nangong family's shop hanging white lanterns and the Gongsun family's soul-calling flags, the whole city soon turned into white.

The Zhenshi Division ordered.

In mourning for three days, all shops in Fang City will not be open for business during these three days.

It is different from the mourning of other aristocratic families.

The atmosphere at Fu's store is still relatively relaxed.

Fu Yongshang cupped his hands to Fu Changsheng, who was sitting at the top of the hall, and said:

"Master, in this turmoil, the biggest loss of our Fu family is the protective array of the store. However, the central array is not seriously damaged, but there are cracks in the eight-sided array. When the time comes, we can ask Sister Eleven to help repair it."

"In addition, there are construction losses to shops."

"However, the imperial court has promised that due to this turmoil, only half of this year's shop taxes will be paid. In conversion, our losses can be directly offset."

There was a pause.

Fu Yongshang presented another storage bag with both hands:

"Master, this is the head of the southern barbarian we killed. According to the imperial court's conversion, it can be exchanged for nearly a thousand imperial court merit points."

Thanks to the head of the family who each gifted a second-level soul-eating insect.

Plus the owner's ghost servant Qiu Chan.

In the battle to encircle and suppress the Southern Barbarians, the Fu family captured more Southern Barbarian heads than any other family.

Fu Changsheng took the storage bag and nodded slightly:

"Yongshang, as soon as three days have passed, you will sell all the elixirs we have squeezed out over the years and put them on the market. For the sake of the compatriots who died in the turmoil, our Fu family's elixirs will be discounted at 120%. express our feelings."

This turmoil.

Many casual cultivators must have taken the opportunity to plunder a lot of good things.

at the same time.

Many monks were injured in this turmoil.

Therefore, whether it is healing elixirs or pills for improving one's cultivation, they are sure to sell well. In addition, other aristocratic shops probably don't have much inventory, so it is difficult for the Fu family to do well in business.

When Fu Yongshang heard this, his eyes lit up:

"Master, I will get started immediately."

"Well, I'm going to Zhenshisi"

As soon as Fu Changsheng left.

Fu Yongyun, who was full of doubts, couldn't help but said:

"Elder Yongshang, it is said that the elixirs in the market are now in short supply. Our shop should increase the price of the elixirs. Why should the owner sell them at a discount? Compared with those false reputations, they are not as important as real money and silver. ?"

Fu Yongshang heard this.

He smiled and shook his head.

He picked up the pastry on the coffee table and ate a piece, then said:

"Yongyun, go outside and listen and watch more. If you still can't figure it out after our store opens, ask me this question again."

This turmoil.

Everyone suffered heavy losses, and there were even casualties.

If the Fu family did business as if nothing had happened, it would definitely arouse the disgust of others.

The most important thing in doing business is reputation and character.

If the Fu family is known as giving out disaster money, it will be difficult for them to get any more customers in the future.

The head of the family did this.

Not only can the elixirs in the warehouse be sold well, but it can also earn a good reputation. Not only will it greatly help the Fu family's future business, but it is also a great way to establish family prestige.

It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone.

Fu Changsheng left his shop and went straight to the Town Hall. The Town Hall Department had ordered that no one in the city should go out for a month.

This time, many chess pieces planted by the Yinan tribe appeared in the city.

Apparently.

The Zhenshi Division wants to take this opportunity to find out all the spies and eliminate them to avoid future troubles.

Arrive at the gate of Fangshi.

The casual cultivators are still carrying Nanman heads and waiting in line for replacement rewards.

As the head of an eighth-grade family, Fu Changsheng naturally did not need to queue and walked directly through the crowd to the main hall.

The casual cultivators who had been waiting in line all day couldn't help but envy when they saw it:

"No wonder everyone wants to build a noble family. Look, the people in this noble family do not have so many rules and regulations like us. Hey, it would be great if we could also build a ninth-grade noble family."

"I heard that the head of the Fu family was the son of four cultivators in the clan, and was promoted to the eighth rank today. Brother Qiao, haven't you given birth to more than a dozen children? You regard the head of the Fu family as your It's not certain that he will be a role model and become the head of a ninth-grade family one day."

As soon as this statement came out.

Everyone burst into laughter immediately.

Qiao Daniu puffed up his chest and said with a loud voice:

"Why are you laughing? People have to have their own beliefs when they are alive. Our Qiao family can't establish a famous family in my generation. What about my grandson and my grandson's grandson? As long as our children pursue this goal from generation to generation, they will eventually become a famous family. That day!"

The others heard the words.

Everyone closed their mouths.

But there were still some people who couldn't see Qiao Daniu's ambition and sneered:

"As for your children and grandchildren, a catastrophe can destroy your Qiao family. You are so naive."

When Fu Changsheng entered the main hall of Zhenshi Division.

It was discovered that in just a few days, the walls and houses that originally collapsed in Zhenshisi had been rebuilt as intact as ever.

In the main hall.

But he saw the governor of Jingzhou Wanhu Office and Luo Haitang sitting on the left and right. He was the only one summoned this time:

"I've met the Governor and Senior Luo."

"Um"

This time, the governor from Jingzhou Wanhu Office, surnamed Li, looked to be in his forties or fifties. He was dressed as a Confucian scholar and had fake alchemy skills. He pointed to the seat aside for Fu Changsheng to take a seat, and then said:

"Wanningfang City was able to defend this time thanks to you, Patriarch Fu, who informed you in advance. Otherwise, after the Southern Barbarians destroyed the teleportation array, not only Wanningfang City would suffer, but the Huainan Family would also be robbed, and the consequences would be disastrous. "

"Clan Chief Fu, you have made a great contribution this time."

"Do you need me to express my merits to the court for you?"

While talking.

Luo Haitang, who was drinking tea, raised his eyes and glanced at Fu Changsheng.

Fu Changsheng's thoughts changed rapidly.

Trying to figure out what Ambassador Li Zhen meant.

If southern Yinan falls under attack this time, if the court pursues the case, the Zhenshisi and the seventh-rank Luo family in charge of Huainan Mansion will at least be punished for the crime of negligence.

The envoy Li Zhen asked this question.

Obviously there was no intention to report it at all.

Fu Changsheng quickly stood up and cupped his hands and said:

"The reason why the Yinan tribe was able to successfully infiltrate Fangshi was actually a plan laid out in advance by Mr. Li Zhenfu and Senior Luo. The purpose was to lure people from the Yinan tribe to come in and beat the dogs. I gave the summons to Palace Master Xu, but It is an unnecessary move and cannot be regarded as meritorious service. The ones who made the great contribution were Mr. Li and Senior Luo who were strategizing behind the scenes."

As soon as this statement came out.

Luo Haitang couldn't help but glance at Fu Changsheng, with a smile on his lips, and then turned to look at each other with Ambassador Li Zhen.

Li Zhenfushi coughed slightly.

Fu Changsheng nodded with satisfaction at being so eye-catching:

"Having said that, it is rare for you to be able to detect the clues before others. As a reward, the two of us promise to grant you a request. Tell me, what do you want?"

ask?

The first thing Fu Changsheng wanted was the Star Stone, and the second was the auxiliary spirit soul-inducing pill that could break through the third level of Zi Mansion and awaken the soul and move to Niwan Palace.

but.

The words come to your lips.

He immediately swallowed it again.

The two people in front of them are potential stocks that can step into the realm of golden elixir at any time. If they are used to exchange for a soul-inducing elixir, it will be a big loss.

Might as well keep this favor.

If you really need it in the future, it's never too late.

Therefore, Fu Changsheng handed over his hand again:

"Chang Sheng is extremely grateful to be appreciated by Mr. Li and Senior Luo and doesn't dare to ask for any reward."

What a great person.

Luo Haitang put down the tea cups in his hands.

They are a little more interested in the head of the eighth-grade family under their Luo family.

When Li Zhenfu heard this, he also laughed.

They are all smart people.

Everyone also tacitly ignored it and ignored it.

But Fu Changsheng still has one more thing to ask:

"Two seniors, I heard that the Yinan tribe's attack on Fangshi was planned by Qiu Kuizi. Has the culprit been arrested?"

At that time, Luo Haitang only said that Li Zhen had given envoy a chase.

As soon as this statement came out.

Li Zhenfu showed an unnatural look on his face:

"Qiu Kuizi fled all the way. When he arrived at the intersection of the Bloody Forbidden Land and the East Wilderness, he suddenly changed his mind and sneaked into the third floor of the Bloody Forbidden Land."

The third level of the Bloody Forbidden Land has always been accessible but not accessible.

Fu Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief.

He originally wanted to test and ask the court if they had any plans to counterattack the Yinan tribe, but Ambassador Li Zhen had already picked up the tea cup. He immediately knew that this was an order to expel guests, so he bowed his hands and retreated.

Out of the main hall.

Palace Master Xu, who had been guarding the door for a long time, was obviously relieved when he saw Fu Changsheng come out with all his hair and tail.

She motioned for Fu Changsheng to follow her into the side hall.

After closing the magic circle.

He immediately bowed to Fu Changsheng and fell to the ground.

"Master Xu, what are you doing? Please get up quickly."

Fu Changsheng quickly helped the person up.

Palace Master Xu, however, looked grateful. If Fu Changsheng had not sent the message in time, she would have become a dead soul of the Southern Barbarians, and the entire Huainan Zhenshisi would have been destroyed. If the imperial court investigated, even they Xu The family is also more or less involved.

This is more than just a life-saving grace.

Such a great kindness, she will remember it forever.

After the two sat down.

Palace Master Xu then opened his mouth and said:

"Clan Chief Fu, after the turmoil in Fang City passes, I will probably be transferred out of Huainan. Before that, within my scope of authority, if there is anything I can do to help your Fu family, just ask."

"also"

"If you are willing, Chief Fu, when I return to the clan, you will definitely look for a good girl to marry your Fu family."

"Of course, if you, Patriarch Fu, want to marry a girl into our Xu family, then our Xu family will definitely welcome her warmly."

Marriage? !

Fu Changsheng was moved in his heart.

The resources of Huaibei Mansion are better than those of Huainan.

It would be great if we could expand the family territory to Huaibei Mansion through the Xu family.

He handed it over without hesitation and said:

"It is my Fu family's great fortune to have the honor to marry you, Palace Master Xu, and your Xu family. I am extremely happy for Changsheng."

The two hit it off immediately.

However, Fu Changsheng has not yet made up his mind about the candidate for marriage, and will wait until he returns to the fiefdom.

The end.

He turned over the heads of the Southern Barbarians in the storage bag. Counting what he had accumulated before, the Fu family's imperial merits had reached 5,000, which was obviously a long way from being upgraded to a seventh-grade family.

Right now.

A familiar mechanical voice sounded in his mind:

"bite"

"You have gained 1,000 court merit points for your family and 500 family contribution points."

Immediately afterwards.

The family contribution value on the panel changes to six thousand.

After coming out of Zhenshi Division.

The one-month period was up, and after the thorough investigation of the city was completed and people could come and go freely, Fu Changsheng immediately rushed back to the Yunshan County fiefdom.

Now that Thousand Soul Jade has been obtained, he naturally seizes the time to practice the third level of "Dayan Jue". Once the practice is completed, he will use [Xuanyin Grass] to open the Niwan Palace and become a half-step Zifu!

Therefore, he handed over the general affairs of the clan to his third brother, Fu Changlihou.

So I chose to retreat.

After the door to the secret room is closed.

Fu Changsheng's thought fell in the [Practice Room], and he immediately thought:

"Open the practice room"

Buzz!

The panel vibrates.

A large amount of yellow light surged.

Then there was a flash before his eyes.

The next moment.

He appeared in the familiar quiet room, and the smell of Ningshen incense assaulted his nostrils, calming down his originally agitated mood.

"call"

Took a deep breath.

Then he began to count the gains of this trip to the market.

At the auction.

He bid for two treasures in total, one was the [Message Tree], and the other was the [Phoenix Blood Wood].

With the [Phoenix Blood Wood], the only thing missing to set up the isolation formation was the [Dragon Scale Stone] and the [Ethereal Mica], which would open the secret realm and allow Rong Geer to come out of the secret realm.

Fu Changsheng's thoughts fell on the [Message Tree] in the Huangshi Medicine Garden.

According to the intelligence.

This [Message Tree] was left by an ascended monk, which means that if the other party is still alive, perhaps he can contact him.

He pondered for a while.

Fu Changsheng made a hand gesture with his right hand and quickly wrote a line of words densely on a [Message Leaf]:

"Senior, I am a cultivator from the Great Zhou Dynasty in the lower world. I am fortunate to have obtained the [Message Tree] branch left by the senior. I would like to express my greetings. I wonder if the senior is doing well in the spiritual world? Does the senior have any unfulfilled wishes in the lower world? If I can do it, I am willing to share your worries. Fu Changsheng respectfully presents this."

Fu Changsheng originally wanted to ask about the ascension.

But he found that the message leaf was already densely written, so he had to give up. If there was a message from the upper world, he would reply later.

After putting down the pen.

Buzz!

But the [Message Leaf] trembled slightly.

Then it fell from the tree and turned into nothingness and dissipated.

Fu Changsheng stared at the message tree with expectation, but after a long time, no message came back:

"Maybe the senior is in seclusion."

Fu Changsheng observed for a while, and when he saw no feedback, he retracted his gaze.

He slapped the storage bag.

A flash of light.

The white dragon-patterned box obtained from Chief Tian appeared.

The box's restriction was opened.

But a yellow light emerged from inside.

A [Dragon Fruit] the size of an adult's thumb came into view. The pattern of this fruit vaguely showed a dragon lying in a coiled shape. The spiritual energy contained inside was extremely majestic, and it contained an alluring fragrance:

"It is indeed a fruit that can awaken the blood of spirit beasts."

At the same time.

In the Yunhuan Zixian Tower.

Many spirit beasts seemed to have smelled the smell and became agitated at the same time, among which the green python reacted the most.

Bang bang bang!

At this time, it had transformed into its true form, and its huge demon body kept slapping the top of the second floor of the pagoda, and its eyes turned scarlet:

"Xiaoqing, calm down!"

Fu Changsheng glanced at the Yunhuan Zixian Tower.

With the increase of spirit pets, this small tower is no longer enough.

It would be great if it could be upgraded to a few more floors.

"Hiss~"

The green python raised its head and roared in the tower.

However, under his suppression and comfort, it finally calmed down.

He did not feed the [Dragon Fruit] to the green python immediately. He had consulted his fourth sister before the retreat. When the spirit beast awakens its bloodline, it often needs a great amount of spiritual power to nourish it. The more spiritual power it has, the deeper its potential will be developed.

Fu Changsheng slapped his storage bag.

A ray of light flashed.

Instantly, spiritual stones came out one after another.

Accompanied by the spell.

After more than a month, a large spirit gathering array was finally arranged. After all the spirit stones obtained in this market were arranged, once the spirit gathering array was activated, the spiritual energy in the entire quiet room could reach the level of the third-level top-grade spiritual spring on the basis of the original third-level spiritual vein of the fiefdom:

"This should be enough"

After checking several times and finding no problems,

Fu Changsheng then had an idea and released the green python from the Yunhuan Zixian Tower: "hiss~"

After the green python appeared.

It rubbed Fu Changsheng's shoulder very intimately. It was originally aloof, but under the temptation of [Dragon Fruit], it also learned to please people.

Fu Changsheng chuckled:

"Xiaoqing, go to the formation"

"hiss!"

A green light flashed.

The green python immediately shrank its body and fell into the formation. The snake head was raised high, looking at Fu Changsheng eagerly.

Fu Changsheng pointed at the box placed in front of him.

The box opened.

[Dragon Fruit] floated out instantly.

The moment it saw [Dragon Fruit], the green python could no longer remain calm. It roared and swallowed the exotic fruit in one mouthful.

After the spiritual fruit was swallowed.

The green python immediately coiled up like a human, just like meditating. The powerful medicinal power of the [Dragon Fruit] rushed around in its body with a bang, and the terrifying medicinal power made it ooze large drops of demon blood from its skin.

But the green python had no intention of spitting it out:

"Xiaoqing, you have to work hard. Even if you can't awaken the dragon bloodline, you must take advantage of this favorable wind to break through to the third level directly!"

Not long ago.

The green python just took [Purple Luotianxiang Grass].

Breaking through to the third level is just a matter of the last step.

As time passed.

The violent medicinal power of the [Dragon Fruit] was slowly refined by the green python, and at the same time, the green python's body shape was constantly changing.
