Nine Pins Immortal Road

Chapter 823 Youzhou
In Yingzhou City on Yingzhou Island, there is a Jiuyuan mountain thousands of miles away from the city. This is the place where the cloud boat of the "Changfeng" Liu family of the Qingzhou family moored, loaded and unloaded goods and passengers in Yingzhou.

Liang Zhaohuang was on the third floor of the Yunzhou Pavilion at this time, leaning on the railing to look down, the caravans loading and unloading goods, and the guests unloading and disembarking the Yunzhou, were constantly flowing and lively, but there were quite different feelings in his heart.

He remembered that more than a hundred years ago, when the family was still a poor family, he and his second uncle Liang Xuelin took a cloud boat to Ningzhou to find an inheritance for the family that could build a foundation and be promoted to a wealthy family in the county.

At that time, both he and his second uncle were just Qi-refining monks, and like most of the crowd below, they mixed in the crowd and headed for an unknown future.

And at that time, the two of them almost spent most of the spiritual stones accumulated by the family, just now they won two simple cabins in the Ding District, the lowest floor of the Yunzhou guest area, and they couldn't even practice along the way.

But now, Liang Zhaohuang once again took the "Changfeng" Liu family's cloud boat, but he didn't need to mix with the people below to board the boat, but was directly greeted by the waiter in the "cloud boat", took the air passage, and went straight to the cloud boat passenger area of three floors.

This is the B area of ​​the four-story guest area A, B, C, and D in the "Yunzhou", and it is the area where the nobles of the prefectures and Jindan real people live.

Every guest residence is a courtyard, with pavilions, gardens, quiet rooms dedicated to practice, and halls for receiving guests. It can be said that everything is available.

In District B, there is also 'Yunzhou' which provides dedicated waiter services.

Compared with the Ding area he rode in at the beginning, it can be said that one is in the clouds and the other is in the mud.

Of course, such a gap is not only due to the requirements and differences in the status and cultivation of the passengers, but also the spiritual stones that need to be consumed.

The tickets for residences in District D are all calculated based on low-grade spirit stones, while the tickets for District B are all calculated based on top-grade spirit stones.

The disparity can be seen in it, if it is not a family member of the prefecture, or Jindan Daoist, it is often impossible to buy a boat ticket to the second area of ​​the 'Yunzhou'.

"Patriarch, the passenger from the Yiqi district next door has sent a famous thorn and an invitation card, inviting the patriarch to attend the banquet tomorrow."

At this time, the starling Liang Zhaosong came over with a famous card and an invitation to report.

"Oh?"

Liang Zhaohuang took the famous stab to check it out, but it turned out to be the Jindan real person of Zhou's family, a family in Wupin County, Ningpu County, Guangzhou.

"Do you know why the banquet?"

Liang Zhaohuang opened the invitation to check again, and asked casually, the reason for the banquet was not stated in the invitation.

The starling Liang Zhaosong immediately replied: "I asked the waiter to find out that this real Zhou was going to Sizhou Tianjing on the cloud boat to serve as a capital official. Since he boarded the cloud boat, he has held banquets almost every day. Passengers, he will invite once, even several times."

Hearing this, Liang Zhaohuang couldn't help but shook his head slightly, put down the invitation card in his hand, and said, "Brother, prepare some gifts to send over tomorrow, thank the other party for the invitation, as for the banquet, I won't go, just say I'm practicing in seclusion."

"Yes!"

The starling Liang Zhaosong should be ordered to retire.

Liang Zhaohuang is not in the mood to lean on the railing and look back at the past.

Now go back to the quiet room in the courtyard, practice in retreat, comprehend the 'Five Elements of the Wheel', and enhance the comprehension and mastery of the rhyme of the Five Elements.

This time, he took his starling Liang Zhaosong, and several qi-refining disciples of the Xiangzi and Zhongzi generations in the family, and took the "Yunzhou" to Youzhou in the northern part of the Xian Dynasty to help his elder brother Liang Zhaojun capture the fourth-rank member of the Ministry of War, Wailang. position.

Of course, the main help in this line of work is Liang Zhaohuang himself, and as for the starling Liang Zhaosong, and several qi refining children of the family's Xiangzi and Zhongzi generations, they are just bringing them to open their eyes and increase their knowledge.

In fact, for Liang Zhaohuang and the Liang family, the Kunpeng is the best help, and if they take the Kunpeng to go north, even if it is millions of miles away, they can arrive within a month at the speed of the Kunpeng.

It's just that Liang Zhaohuang doesn't have enough control over Kunpeng now, but he doesn't dare to release it out of the 'Kunpeng Secret Realm' at all.

Moreover, Kunpeng is a Tier [-] Demon King, once he appears in the territory of the Immortal Dynasty, he will definitely be exposed.

With the improvement of Liang Zhaohuang's cultivation base and his family's rank, he also has a deeper understanding of the ability and control of the Great Jin Dynasty.

Perhaps, Xianchao would not pay too much attention to monks at the level of refining Qi and building foundations, and low-level monsters of the first and second ranks, as there would be fish that slipped through the net and hid everywhere in Xianchao.

However, for a Tier [-] demon king like Kunpeng, once he inexplicably appears in the territory of the Immortal Dynasty, he will definitely be discovered by the Immortal Dynasty immediately.

At that time, Liang Zhaohuang is really not sure what the result will be.

It is possible for the Xian Dynasty to kill Kunpeng or subdue Kunpeng.

But no matter which possibility, Liang Zhaohuang is obviously not willing to see it.

Therefore, Liang Zhaohuang can only keep Kunpeng hidden in the 'Kunpeng Secret Realm' for the time being.

But this time when he went to Youzhou to help his elder brother Liang Zhaojun win the position of Wailang, a member of the fourth-rank military department, he could only choose to take the cloud boat of the "Changfeng" Liu family to Youzhou.

A few days later, the 'Yunzhou' completed loading and unloading of passengers and cargo, took off from outside Yingzhou City, and flew northwest.

"Yunzhou" will pass through Xuzhou and Qingzhou, then enter Jizhou, go north to Youzhou, pass through the four states, and add the waters of Yingzhou, a journey of one million miles.

Even at the flying speed of 'Yunzhou', it would basically take nearly five months to reach Youzhou.

During the nearly five-month journey, Liang Zhaohuang basically practiced in the quiet room, comprehending and mastering the rhymes of the Five Elements.

The conditions in District B of 'Yunzhou' are much better than those in District D, the lowest level, and the practice environment is almost comparable to that of ordinary county towns. It is still possible to use it for practice in a short period of time.

And in these five months, every time the 'Yunzhou' docked in Xuzhou, Qingzhou, and Jizhou, there would be continuous disembarkation and boarding of the prefects and Jindan monks in District B.

Naturally, there will often be newly-boarded "Yunzhou" county prestige family members and Jindan real people who distribute famous cards and invitations to invite passengers in District B to participate in various banquets.

Even, in this District B, there will be trade fairs and auctions specially organized by the 'Changfeng' Liu family, which can be described as very lively.

Liang Zhaohuang occasionally participates in such trade fairs and auctions when he is practicing in closed doors.

It's a pity that Liang Zhaohuang didn't encounter any favorite things such as picking up leaks, and there were no accidents during the whole process.

It made him very satisfied that he was not a trouble-making physique, and he would cause accidents wherever he went.

Of course, the "Changfeng" Liu family of the Qingzhou family is an old aristocratic family that has been passed down for thousands of years. It has also operated these "cloud boat" shipping for thousands of years. It's done very maturely, and it's not easy to be picked up by others, or someone to make trouble.

Although Liang Zhaohuang didn't gain much, but leading the family's children, he also gained some knowledge.

Especially the Qi-refining children of the Xiangzi generation and the Zhongzi generation of the family are all young people who have just grown up in the family. They are under 30 years old. The children of the prefects in other states and counties have gained some experience and knowledge, which will be beneficial to their future growth.

Such a smooth journey, in the fifth month, the 'Yun Zhou' landed safely outside the city of Youzhou in Youzhou.

Liang Zhaohuang took his family's children off of the 'Yunzhou', and went directly to Shanggu County without entering Youzhou City.

According to the news delivered by the eldest brother Liang Zhaojun, this time the Xian Dynasty launched a counterattack against the northern barbarians from the borders of Pingzhou, Youzhou, and Bingzhou.

However, like the elder brother Liang Zhaojun, who wanted to make contributions in this operation and compete for the position of the fourth-rank member of the Ministry of War, the three prefect monks chose their own offensive front and direction, and the court and the Ministry of War did not interfere.

In the end, the imperial court and the Ministry of War will only appoint the winner as the fourth-rank member of the Ministry of War based on the merits of the three men.

The eldest brother, Liang Zhaojun, chose to start from the front line of Shanggu County in Youzhou, go north to attack the barbarians, and make great achievements.

Therefore, Liang Zhaohuang and the others also went directly to Shanggu County to join their elder brother Liang Zhaojun.

Liang Zhaohuang and others also came to Youzhou and Shanggu County for the first time, and they saw many different scenery from the south of Xianchao and the East China Sea.

In the south of the Xian Dynasty, such as Yangzhou and Jingzhou, there are mostly rivers, lakes, plains and hills scattered, and the East China Sea is boundless and vast.

They are places with more water than land.

However, Youzhou in the north is a land of plains and high mountains. On the contrary, it is a land short of water. There is far more land than water.

However, when Liang Zhaohuang and others came to Youzhou, it was near the end of the year, and the sky was constantly snowing heavily.

The so-called 'Yanshan snowflakes are as big as a mat' refers to the situation in Yanyun Mountain in the north of Youzhou. Although it is exaggerated, Liang Zhaohuang and other people in the south have never seen such a dense and dense land in the north and Youzhou. Huge snow scene.

A group of people took a flying boat and flew in mid-air. As far as they could see, there was snow in all directions, and there was no other color between the sky and the earth. It could almost make people get lost in the sky and the earth, unable to find the way forward.

Liang Zhaohuang remembers that when he participated in several meetings of the 'Baibaoge' alliance, he had chatted with some aristocratic monks in Youzhou, Pingzhou, Bingzhou and other places. He heard from them that in the three northern states In winter, when the heavy snow falls, the nobles and humble monks in those counties will huddle in the counties and towns, and basically seldom go out for activities.

One of the reasons is that under the heavy snowfall, the sky and the earth are all white, and it is easy to form some "confusing areas". If those monks who refine Qi and build foundations fall into it, they will never find a way out, and they will often disappear in the sky and the earth in the end. In the boundless white snow, those who were occasionally found had basically turned into corpses.

The snow disaster in the Northern Territory is already at the level of natural disasters, even low-level monks are often difficult to resist, so they can only stay in counties and towns to ensure safety.

Therefore, every winter and when heavy snow falls, it is often difficult to see people and traces in the wild in the three northern states.

Occasionally, what I saw was basically a team of prefects and clans led by Jindan Daoist.

Of course, according to what the owners of the 'Baibao Pavilion' in Youzhou, Pingzhou and other places said.

Under the heavy snow in winter, the reason why county rich and poor families would stay in the county towns and towns, guarding the city, besides dealing with the snow disaster, there was another more important reason, which was to deal with the invasion of the northern barbarians.

The place where the northern barbarians live is still in the north of Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Pingzhou. In winter, the heavy snow is even heavier, and the snow disaster is even more serious!
Even under every heavy snow or snow disaster, it will cause huge losses and casualties to the barbarians.

In order to make up for these losses and casualties, the northern barbarians often choose to go south in such winter and heavy snow, Kou Luexian headed north to Bingzhou, Youzhou, Pingzhou and other places.

Every invasion will cause considerable damage to the land of the three states and cause huge losses.

Therefore, the county tycoons and poor families in these three states often guard the county towns and towns in such winters and heavy snowfalls to resist the invading barbarian invaders.

As for the county prefects and aristocratic families, they organized teams to attack directly, and directly fought and killed the invading barbarians in the border areas of the three states.

There is also a team organized to wipe out the invading barbarian team within the three states.

Basically, every winter, when the snow is falling, the three states of Bing, You, and Ping are shrouded in fighting and fighting.

This time, the aristocratic families and prefects in the center of the Xian Dynasty and the three states chose this time to launch a counterattack against the northern barbarians. It is precisely because it is the end of the year and when the snow is falling. According to the usual practice, the northern barbarians will once again invade south. .

It is the best time to give a head-on blow and a heavy blow.

The flying boat that Liang Zhaohuang and others took was made by the "Jinyanghuo" Li family. It was only a few tens of feet long, and it couldn't sail long distances. However, it carried Liang Zhaohuang and his party with less than ten people, and it still didn't fly in Youzhou questionable.

"Patriarch, something went wrong."

At this moment, the family members responsible for controlling the flight of the flying boat came to report and said:
"The 'pointer' responsible for guiding the direction of the spaceship's navigation suddenly failed and turned randomly, and we lost our direction."

"I'm afraid it was encountered in the 'Lost Realm' under the snow disaster in Youzhou."

"Oh? I'll take a look."

Liang Zhaohuang's eyes flickered slightly, and he stood on the edge of the flying boat, with five-color Buddha lights appearing in his eyes, and he activated the 'Five Elements' and 'Tianyantong' to look around.

Soon there was a discovery.

"The course has deviated, turn left thirty degrees and sail."

"Yes!"

The children of the family who were in charge of controlling the flight of the flying boat immediately took orders.

"Wait, there's something in this snow."

At this time, Liang Zhaohuang suddenly made a new discovery, which stopped the flying boat from continuing to sail.

There was a flash of light in his eyes, he raised his hand and turned around, and there was a beeping sound, and the image of Kunpeng appeared behind him, spreading his wings and soaring up, setting off endless wind and black water, plunging into the surrounding heavy snow, and immediately setting off a tornado storm , Involving all the strong wind and heavy snow into it, like a meat grinder, it wants to grind everything into powder.

Boo!
A scream sounded, and a somewhat blurred figure, as if condensed from flying snow, rushed out immediately.

　Congratulations on the centennial birthday of the party!
　　I have something to do today, a chapter with [-] words is guaranteed.
