Refining Qi starts from repairing the panel

Chapter 166 Tianyao Federation, Trouble

The sun jumped up from the end of the earth, and the morning light began to appear.

Yuncao City.

On the bustling streets, a group of dozens of people walked slowly with the crowd.

"On Dong'an Star, there is only one country, the Yuangu Dynasty, which has been passed down for 576 years. The population is more than 765.3 million and is in a positive growth state. The average life expectancy is about 65 years old, which is very different from the current Tianyao Federation. The language and writing are also very different."

Zhuo Xiu walked in the front. Before he spoke, his voice echoed clearly in the minds of every traveler through the chip implanted behind his head.

"Yuncao City is the core transportation hub of the Yuangu Dynasty. Due to the backward productivity, water transportation can save a lot of costs, so the canal transportation is booming, and the waterways are well connected throughout the Yuangu Dynasty."

"Because it is a transportation hub, you can see almost all the customs and customs of the Yuangu Dynasty in Yuncao City. Seven days and six nights are enough for you to experience it."

"On Dong'an Star, there are monks who practice ancient martial arts. The best of them can be as strong as the first generation of gene evolutionists."

Hearing this, many passengers showed interest on their faces. Gene evolutionists are elites carefully selected by the Tianyao Federation. With the promotion of Tianyao Evolution Liquid, their strength is already inhuman.

It is actually quite difficult to achieve this step by practicing.

As we walked along the way, we suddenly heard a burst of chirping from the street. When we tilted our heads, we saw the dancing sleeves of light gauze, and the white and delicate skin was faintly visible between the ribbons and pink silk.

The canal transported precious goods from all over the world, including beauties from all over the country. Brothels were almost the pillar industry in the canal transport city, a veritable den of money, with a considerable annual output.

Among the passengers, several men subconsciously slowed down their pace, their eyes wandering.

"Brothels are an inevitable part of the development history of ancient dynasties. To some extent, the business status of brothels can reflect the rise and fall of dynasties. After all, this is linked to the consumption capacity of ordinary people."

"In principle, I do not recommend that you have sex with natives. Due to the differences in antibody flora in the body, the interaction of body fluids may cause the risk of epidemics."

Zhuo Xiu was not surprised. He stopped and turned back to remind:

"Dong'an Star is currently the private property of our Xinghe Travel Agency. If an epidemic occurs, resulting in population loss and affecting the ecological environment, the travel agency will seek compensation according to law."

"If you are very interested in a native, you can submit an application to Xinghe Travel Agency. Xinghe Travel Agency will collect their blood gene samples, customize the seventh-generation bionic dolls, attach the second-generation smart chip, write your customized identity background, and ship them to your place of residence. Enjoy a ten-year warranty, free repair, and good quality and low price."

Hearing this, several passengers withdrew their gazes with some disappointment, giving up the opportunity to experience the customs and customs of Yuncao City.

Soon, the group found an inn to stay. After temporarily settling in, Zhuo Xiu asked the needs of many travelers one by one.

After telling them some precautions, Zhuo Xiu took a few travelers who were interested in learning more and began to wander around Yuncao City.

…………

…………

Cao transportation is related to the livelihood of a country.

From grain dispatch, court taxes, military pay, palace expenses, and salaries of officials to merchants' goods and money circulation, they are all inseparable from Cao transportation.

In Yuncao City, there are not only martial arts masters rarely seen in the world, but also elite troops stationed outside the city, ready to suppress unrest at any time.

This place is a rich treasure land. If you touch it, the water will be full of oil.

Those wealthy businessmen will always have times when they can't pay cash when they go out, and pawnshops exist for this reason.

There are dozens of pawnshops of all sizes in Yuncao City, not to mention hundreds.

The ‘Fukang Pawnshop’ where Chu Zheng was located was not very eye-catching.

Behind the counter, which was more than one person tall, Chu Zheng propped up his chin with one hand and closed his eyes to take a nap.

Since he discovered the huge difference in the speed of time flow, most of Chu Zheng’s attention has been on the incarnation.

With a pair of spiritual eyes and his own accomplishments as a cultural relic restorer, he easily became the pawnbroker with the sharpest eyesight in Fukang Pawnshop in just one month.

Even if he spent a hundred years here, for the Cangyun Realm, it was only less than a year. This was also a rare opportunity for Chu Zheng himself to slow down and focus on improving his state of mind.

Along the way, his cultivation level rose too fast, and his state of mind cultivation was gradually not enough for him to perfectly control the surging power in his body, and there would be some flaws.

He lacked a wise master to guide him, so he could only rely on his own exploration and rely on his own feelings to check and fill in the gaps in his own cultivation.

Ding——

The wind chime hanging on the edge of the door rang softly, and a man in his thirties of medium build walked in, with a slightly wretched demeanor.

"How much is this worth?"

The man lowered his head, raised a handkerchief above his head, and put it on the counter.

Chu Zheng raised his finger to pick up the handkerchief, glanced at it, and frowned slightly.

Wrapped in the handkerchief was a jade ring, stained with blood, with a gold thread edge, revealing a trace of obvious Yin Qi.

The ring had a strong earthy smell. Even without looking at the information given by the panel, Chu Zheng could tell from his own years of experience that the ring had just been unearthed.

The man in front of him was probably doing the work of a scoundrel, rolling around in the pit of the dead to find gold.

In his previous life, Chu Zheng didn't like this kind of people, because most of the rats had limited knowledge. Some valuable clay inscriptions were not worth much in their eyes, so it was normal to destroy them.

However, Chu Zheng now didn't bother to argue with this kind of people. He had killed countless people along the way. In terms of karma, I'm afraid it would be much heavier than those who dug up the dead graves.

"An old ring, three taels of silver."

After a slight estimate, Chu Zheng casually quoted a price and gave a discount.

The ring was in good condition, and the resale price was thirty to fifty taels of silver.

"So little? Can you add a little more? I can pawn it."

Hearing this, the man suddenly raised his head, his expression was a little hesitant, and after seeing Zheng's appearance clearly, he was stunned for a while. After taking a closer look, he suddenly screamed, as if he had seen a ghost:

"Tree roots?!"

Hearing this, Chu Zheng raised his head, squinted his eyes, and after thinking for a moment, he recognized the man in front of him.

That day, he first arrived at this star, and this person happened to be among the three people who dumped the corpse.

Chu Zheng's pupils flashed with spiritual light, and the panel quickly sent out information.

[You Dawu (Level 0): Bone age 32, tomb robber, often in and out of the mausoleum, internal organs eroded by Yin Qi, and will not live beyond 40 years old. (Repairable)]

Thinking of the thirteen knives behind the tree roots, Chu Zheng was thoughtful. Combined with the existing information, it is likely that the internal strife and murder were caused by uneven distribution of spoils.

At this moment, You Dawu's expression was extremely complicated, with fear, disbelief, and a hint of murder in his eyes.

The perception of the Qi-refining master was so sharp that the fleeting murderous intent naturally did not escape Chu Zheng's perception.

Those who deal with tombs all day long are not kind-hearted.

Chu Zheng quietly watched You Dawu, suddenly stood up, stretched out his hand from behind the counter, strangled You Dawu's neck with one hand, and dragged him behind the counter.

Now, more than two months have passed since he started practicing Qi Refining Method, and there are less than twenty days left before the Hundred Days Spiritual Transformation. His strength has approached ten thousand pounds, which is simply not something that a mortal like You Dawu can contend with.

Chu Zheng stepped on the side of You Dawu's neck, looked up and glanced at the closed door, then bowed his head and said:

"I ask, you answer, if you tell a lie, I will send you to a mass grave, understand?"

You Dawu's mind was already a mess at this moment, and he reacted after a moment.

Feeling that the sole of the shoe on the side of his neck was almost breaking his neck, he did not dare to hesitate at all, and squeezed out a word from his teeth with difficulty:

"I understand."

"Why kill the tree roots?" Chu Zheng said casually.

"It's not me who wants to kill you, it's Yan Lang who wants me to kill you. He killed your mother and set the old house on fire. It has nothing to do with me!"

"Did you really stab me thirteen times?" Chu Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly and put more strength on his feet. He was just trying to ask, but he didn't expect You Dawu to confess so quickly.

Facing a boy who was only fourteen years old, stabbed thirteen times, each knife was directly at his internal organs. He didn't see that You Dawu had any reluctance.

You Dawu obviously couldn't keep up with Chu Zheng's thinking logic. He was a little confused for a while, until he couldn't breathe smoothly, and then he roared with a red face:

"I can't remember how many times I stabbed, I can't help it. I have old people and children in my family, how dare I refute Yan Lang?"

The congestion in the brain obviously made You Dawu's mind more and more confused, and his thoughts were unclear. Without waiting for Chu Zheng to ask again, he talked about this and that for a long time and told most of the situation.

There were five tomb robbers working with You Dawu. Yan Lang was the leader of the group. He was very skilled in martial arts and was originally a member of the imperial guards of the Yuan Dynasty. However, he was wrongly imprisoned because he offended the son of a powerful noble.

During his exile, Yan Lang killed the soldiers escorting him while the guards were not paying attention. He then escaped and recruited a few followers to become a water bandit.

Later, because the imperial court had strict supervision over the grain transport, it often sent martial arts masters to lead the elite imperial guards to eliminate bandits. The water bandit business became increasingly bleak, so he became a tomb robber.

It was purely accidental that Shugen got involved with such a vicious person.

Shugen's ancestors had a martial arts candidate, but the family fell into decline. When his grandfather was alive, he still had some martial arts skills and found a job as a tomb keeper for his descendants. Although he was not rich, he could guarantee a lifetime of food and clothing.

Unexpected events happen. His father died early due to an old illness, and his mother was also weak and had been bedridden for many years. His life became more and more difficult.

The tomb keeper needs to enter the tomb frequently to maintain the tomb passage mechanism to prevent it from being neglected and being taken advantage of by tomb robbers.

Yan Lang set his sights on this big tomb. After some investigation, he got the layout of the mechanism from Shugen on the condition of helping his mother to treat her illness, and then killed him to silence him.

His method was very clean and neat. After killing him to silence him, he even burned down the old house and faked the appearance of stealing by the keeper.

Chu Zheng knew what happened later.

Yan Lang was cunning, cautious and suspicious by nature. He was almost careful everywhere. After stealing that big tomb, it took more than two months before he started to sell the stolen goods.

In fact, in the past few days, You Dawu had visited many pawnshops and sold more than 20 burial objects. Until today when he met Chu Zheng, there had been no accidents at all, and everything went smoothly.

It can only be said to be a coincidence. If Chu Zheng had not entered the body of the tree root, this incident would not have happened at all.

After hearing this, Chu Zheng was silent for a while before speaking:

"How many of you are still in Yuncao City? Where are Yan Lang and his friends now?"

You Dawu was already breathing weakly, his eyes were dull, and he whispered:

"Everyone is safe...inn."

Ding——

Before Chu Zheng could continue to think deeply, there was a soft ringing from the wind chime on the edge of the door, and another guest arrived.

Chu Zheng straightened up and took a glance. There were five people in total, two women and three men. They were dressed very brightly. There were no signs of washing on the clothes, and they were surprisingly new.

The leading woman looked to be about twenty years old, and she was full of sassy air.

"Little shopkeeper, here are a few treasures that I have passed by. If they suit me, I will buy them. The people behind me are all rich in money."

The woman looked at Chu Zheng with curved eyebrows and a hint of smile.

Chu Zheng looked at a few people and frowned slightly. The people in front of him gave him a strange feeling of being out of place. A light flashed in his eyes, and a message was quickly transmitted from the panel.

[Zhuoxiu (First Level): Bone age fifty-two, second-generation genetic evolver of Tianyao Federation, senior tour guide of Galaxy Travel Agency, rich experience. (detailed)】

[Detailed information: The fourth generation chip of the 'Tianyao Creation Series' is implanted in the back of the head, with login permissions to the Tianyao Star Network, advanced language simultaneous translation function, transmission and recording function, and an emergency alarm system. Within one minute, Alarm information can be uploaded to the 'Galaxy No. 1' central processing station. 】

Chu Zheng read the information of several people one after another, and quickly understood that the people in front of him did not belong to this world, or in other words, did not belong to this star.

Looking at the information given by the spiritual eye, Chu Zheng fell into deep thought for a while.

It seemed that what he saw from the starlight was not an illusion. The star under his feet was indeed under the jurisdiction of a quite powerful civilization.

It's just that there is still some information missing, which is not enough for him to analyze the current situation.

"Little shopkeeper, why don't you speak?"

Zhuo Xiu walked forward with a smile, stood up on tiptoes, put one hand on the counter, suddenly turned over and sat on it, with a hint of frivolity in his tone: "If there is no treasure we can get, we will leave."

She especially likes to tease teenagers like this, who are about fourteen or fifteen years old. The shyness of young people is always touching.

Before she finished speaking, Zhuo Xiu saw You Dawu stepping on Chu Zheng's feet. At the same time, a red light flashed slightly in her eyes, and a light curtain appeared:

[Warning: The target indigenous force has approached the first generation of genetic evolution and is conducting criminal activities. 】

[Hazard rating: Class A]

Zhuoxiu's smile instantly froze at the corner of her mouth.

Chu Zheng's expression remained calm, and he suddenly put more force on his feet.

Click——

Hearing the human voice, You Dawu suddenly began to struggle, and his body instantly became paralyzed.

The crisp sound of a broken neck bone came clearly to Zhuo Xiu's ears.

Chu Zheng lowered his eyes and said calmly:

"What do guests want to buy?"
