My Taoist buddy has practiced surrogacy

Chapter 134 Where?

"No. The 16th generation emperor personally suppressed the disaster, and many old elders could barely stop the disaster from spreading. Billions of people in the dynasty migrated, and finally had to ask for help to suppress the disaster, but it still couldn't be completely suppressed. To purify the stubborn power of calamity, maybe only the great emperor can do it."

"However, since the White Emperor 10 years ago, no new emperor has been born on the mainland."

"After that disaster, although 7 years have passed, Xingyun County has never recovered its former prosperity. Nearly half of the area can even be said to be barren, and the rest of the area is filled with The faint aura of calamity cannot be dissipated. Although it will hardly lead to catastrophe, it can still disturb people's mind. There are many people who go crazy. very slowly."

After listening to Chen Yucheng's explanation, Zhou Xing finally understood Chen Ye's intentions. Even a once-in-a-hundred-year-old Tianjiao would probably disappear in that kind of place, but it's hard for you to refute a current emperor's intentions. Lord, after all, Xingyun County has not never produced amazingly talented people in history, and it can be said that he did it to hone Zhou Xing.

"If you regret accepting the appointment hastily, I will go to Grandpa Huang. Even if there is a fallout, I will not let you go to Xingyun County." Chen Yucheng said sincerely.

"Why do you regret it?" Zhou Xing grinned, "I want to see how terrifying the power of disaster in Xingyun County is. Maybe the harsh environment there will make me grow faster. When I come back from Xingyun County At this time, it is some people who should regret it!"

The red lips were slightly parted, but he didn't say a single word. Chen Yucheng looked at Zhou Xing, who was full of energy and high ambitions, and unknowingly developed some inexplicable interest.

On the other hand, Chen Wenle shouted in disbelief: "Are you stupid? If you stay in the imperial city, with the best resources and your talent, you will be able to break through to the Transcendent Realm within two years, and maybe you will be promoted to the Celestial Phenomena Realm." She's younger than my sister, so she ran to that kind of ghost place when her brain got flooded!"

"I've made up my mind, there's no need to persuade me anymore, you might as well help me think about what I need to bring and some precautions." Zhou Xing said resolutely.

Chen Yucheng nodded and said: "That's right, the entire Xingyun County has been infested by the accumulative aura of calamity, the spiritual energy of the heavens and the earth, the elixir crystals and the like are all polluted, and it is not good to use it for cultivation. If you There is no way to rule out the interference of the calamity aura when we get there, so bring more spirit crystal pills, and you can maintain a certain speed of cultivation with the help of the spirit-gathering formation."

"It seems that the 20 top-grade spirit crystals of the Dragonfinch Chamber of Commerce will come in handy!" Zhou Xing touched his space ring, and the crystal card of the Dragonfinch Chamber of Commerce was placed inside.

Three days later, under the reminder of some people, Zhou Xing left the imperial city for Xingyun County, accompanied by a strong man who was deeply trusted by Chen Yucheng, second only to the old woman who followed Chen Yucheng every day, Chen Wenle He is also a person who can't stay idle, and doesn't pursue the speed of cultivation, so he followed along on the road.

In the bamboo house in the mulberry forest of the palace, Chen Mofan holds white pieces, and Chen Yucheng holds black pieces, they have been playing chess for a long time.

"Yucheng, you're distracted." Where Chen Mofan pointed his index finger, a white chess piece landed, eating the black dragon, and the outcome was decided.

"I lost."

"You are not like this on weekdays. Your chess skills are even inferior to me, but today you lost three games in a row," Chen Mofan said flatly, "It must be because of those two boys going to Xingyun County."

Chen Yucheng nodded.

"You have already assigned Chu Hen to them, so what else is there to worry about? No one can completely ignore the rules, otherwise without me taking action, your father, as the emperor of the dynasty, will never tolerate it." Chen Mo Fan said earnestly, "You are now in the bottleneck period of Transcendence's promotion to the Celestial Realm, and you must put aside all distracting thoughts and keep your mind as still as water... Get ready and go to the forbidden area after seven days. It doesn't matter if you fail the first time, just When you have accumulated experience, of course, it would be the best to successfully condense the sky-level celestial phenomena in one fell swoop."

"Follow your grandfather's teachings."

"Go."

Chen Yucheng respectfully withdrew from the bamboo house, with an extremely firm light shining in his eyes...

Zhou Xing, Chen Wenle, and Chu Hen arrived in Xingyun County, and went straight to the county guard's mansion in Xingyun City. The former county guard had already received the transfer order and was waiting to hand over the task.

The former county guard is also a member of the royal family, but he has no inclination in the matter of the crown prince. He is a neutral person and has served as the county guard of Xingyun County for a long time. The center is not taken seriously, and so is he himself. He is quite displeased with staying in the chaotic place of Xingyun County.

When Zhou Xing saw him, he saw that his temples were slightly frosted, his face was a little old, but the joy in his eyes was beyond words.

The former sheriff happily took Zhou Xing's hand and said, "It's a true hero. Zhou Xiaoyou was conferred the post of sheriff by the emperor at a young age. With such great expectations, he will surely become famous in the Kyushu continent in the future!"

Zhou Xing smiled casually, already immune to these polite words, he didn't believe that the person in front of him would not know the hidden truth.

The former sheriff went on to say: "Xiaoyou Zhou, I have been the sheriff of Xingyun County for more than ten years, and I know the situation here very well. As soon as the eyes were blackened, something went wrong."

Zhou Xing's eyes lit up, he was not bad, so he cupped his hands and said, "Please enlighten me."

"You must have already understood the formation of Xingyun County and some historical issues before you came here, so I won't repeat them." The former county guard took out a huge map and placed it in the air, pointing to it and said: "This It is a detailed map of Xingyun County, about 16 miles from north to south, and about 98 miles from east to west. Among them, the red area is the core area of ​​the Starfall Land, with a radius of about [-] miles. There are still stubborn disasters in it. Do not enter unless it is absolutely necessary, otherwise you may be infected by the power of disaster, and there are many "evil people" and "evil beasts" who have been assimilated by the power of disaster. After the No. [-] emperor suppressed the outbreak of disaster, there were still "evil people" and "evil beasts" causing harm, forming a "evil tide" that hit the entire Xingyun County, but even the most recent one was [-] years ago Well, don’t worry too much.”

"The yellow area outside the red area, if the former is included, has a radius of about [-] miles. Although this area does not have real disaster power, the aura of disaster between heaven and earth is very strong. If The strength is too weak, and if you stay in it for many years, there is also the risk of being infected, even if the strength is strong, it is difficult to keep your mind from being eroded, and you will often become violent and irritable, even cruel and bloodthirsty."

"The white area is close to normal. Low-level monks and even ordinary people can live normally. Our county guard's mansion is located in this area, but because the aura of the world is relatively mixed, it is really not a good place for cultivation."

"It's fine if it's just that, but the places where meteorites fall are always accompanied by huge treasures. This is especially true in our Star Meteor County. Because the mines formed by meteorites are invaluable, they attract countless adventurers and mercenaries. After all There is never a shortage of people who dare to risk their lives in the world, and such people are generally very unruly."

"Besides, due to the particularity of this place, many desperadoes who are extremely murderous and even wanted by the dynasty hide in the yellow area to the edge of the red area. They can sneak into the core regardless of the threat of disaster in order to survive. area, people can’t do anything.”

"To be honest, when I first took office, a group of thieves had the audacity to break into the Sheriff's Mansion to steal. I shot and killed three of them on the spot. The identities of that group have not yet been ascertained, and several of them are still at large. Be more careful."

As he said that, he glanced at Chu Hen who was standing straight beside him. He could feel that the opponent's strength was even higher than his own, which made him very angry. If he hadn't stayed in this ghostly place for more than ten years, he should have entered Holy!
"Thank you for letting me know." Zhou Xing said from the bottom of his heart.

The former sheriff had already packed everything up, and he couldn't wait to leave after explaining clearly.

There is also an old man in the county guard's mansion who is a strong Dharma body. His name is Guan He. He is a native of Xingyu County. He has a high prestige. During his tenure, he took care of the daily affairs.

"Old Guan, go and inform the city lords' mansions of the major cities to let all the city lords come to Xingyun City to attend the meeting in seven days. I heard that some people are not very obedient." Zhou Xing said to Guan He.

Guan He showed embarrassment on his wrinkled face, and said: "Just for the seven first-class cities, on the surface, there is a strong person with a legal body sitting in each of them. It's not that none of the county guards in the past didn't want to deal with them, but they can't do anything about it, at most, they can hit them and hurt them a little."

"If you want to completely break their rule over the local area, the only way is for the central government to send strong men to clean it up, but this will inevitably cause great turmoil. After all, the situation in the entire dynasty is the same, but it is more serious in Xingyun County. Forget it, cleaning a family or a county will definitely make other people feel sad. This is simply self-destructing the Great Wall, so no emperor has ever ordered this to be done. As long as there are enough resources sent to the imperial city and new blood is born, It will be able to maintain the strength of the dynasty."

Zhou Xing frowned. Guan He is indeed an old man who has been reused by successive county guards for many years. He sees the problem thoroughly, and it also pours a basin of cold water on him who is just new here and wants to start a fire.

"I'll think about it later," Zhou Xing said. "You will handle the daily affairs as before, so I won't get involved. I'll get familiar with this place first."

"Yes." Guan He stepped back and said in his heart: I hope this new little sheriff can do what he said, and don't mess around.

Said that he wanted to deal with the deep-rooted local forces in Xingyun County. It was just Zhou Xing who came to Xingyun County and brought it up on a whim. For him, there was nothing more important than his own cultivation, so after Guan He left, he immediately Go to the dedicated training room in the Sheriff's Mansion.

This was built many years ago by the county sheriff at that time.

The training room is shrouded in a high-level spirit-gathering formation. The energy and aura needed for operation are provided by the top-grade spirit crystals, and it is built with extremely precious chalcedony, engraved with a closed formation, which can prevent the penetration of disaster forces. But it cannot be completely blocked.

Zhou Xing entered it, sat cross-legged on the stone bed, performed exercises, and absorbed the surrounding aura to practice.

The richness of the aura here is much lower than that of the practice room in the palace, and the most important thing is that it is not pure enough. Zhou Xing keenly senses that there is some kind of dark aura mixed in it, which can arouse people's negative emotions and make him involuntarily He couldn't help but think of the feeling of being looked down upon by Qing Xianshi, the prince of the Qingyun Dynasty, as an ant who can deprive his life at will in Kongsang City.

However, he suppressed these negative emotions in an instant, his character was firm enough, and the aura of disaster that had penetrated into the training room was already very weak.

The aura was absorbed into the body, and after circulating in the meridians for a week, it gathered towards the dantian. At this moment, black thunder suddenly burst out from the dantian, and traces of black thunder rushed out, rushing towards the converging spiritual power.

"Huh..."

There seemed to be a subtle voice in the body, and Zhou Xing clearly felt that the aura of disaster mixed in the spiritual power was completely eliminated!Although the spiritual power obtained through hard work has also shrunk, it is clear that this purer spiritual power is what he needs now.

Zhou Xing was overjoyed, the Nine Layers of Immortal Thunder Striking Sutra is really powerful, the thunder he cultivated can not only completely suppress the power of ninth-grade thunder, but also restrain the aura of disaster, but he didn't know that he would encounter such a terrible disaster What will happen to the power.

In Xingyun County, the troubled monks have been looking for a solution. Chalcedony is one of the treasures. You can take it with you and take it out at any time. You can take it at any time, but they are all expensive—— A catty of chalcedony is worth hundreds of top-quality spirit crystals, and Jinger pill is at least a sixth-grade elixir, which is even more expensive. It is not uncommon for a single Jinger pill to cost a thousand top-quality spirit crystals.

The annual normal income of Xingyun County Sheriff's Mansion is only a little over [-] yuan if all of them are replaced with top-quality spirit crystals, and [-] yuan of which must be handed over to the royal family. This is already the lowest standard among the thirteen counties of the Chenxu Dynasty. The large counties in the big county hand in far more than one hundred thousand top-grade spirit crystals every year.

Even in the training room, it is impossible to completely isolate the influence of the calamity gas. No one wants to let the calamity gas accumulate in the body and become a huge hidden danger. Therefore, those strong people who have a lot of wealth will take it every once in a while Jing Erdan.

Now that Zhou Xing has no such hidden worries, he can save a lot of resources. With the 20 top-grade spirit crystals from the Dragon Sparrow Chamber of Commerce and the [-]% control rights promised by Chen Ye, he can completely collect natural materials and earth treasures to assist his cultivation.

After staying in the practice room for a long time, Zhou Xingxing came out and learned that Chen Wenle couldn't sit still in the Sheriff's Mansion and had already run out to play.

Zhou Xing approached Guan He and asked, "Where is Chen Wenle now?"

Everything in Xingyun City is under the control of the Sheriff's Mansion, besides, Chen Wenle is a prince, so even though Chen Wenle left the Sheriff's Mansion alone, Guan He has sent someone to secretly protect him at all times.

Guan He replied: "His Royal Highness the Tenth Prince is currently in Xingshifang."

"Star Stone Workshop? What is that place?"
