break the way [comprehension]

Shi Song looked happy, but he kept his mouth shut all the time. Tong Qing felt anxious at this moment. Seeing Shi Song's expression, he knew that this matter might never be faked. action!

He can't sit still anymore, no matter how idle he is, he is also a child of the Tong family, and a member of the Violet Sect. Now let alone the Violet Sect, the situation in the entire Zhanwu League is very strange, and the battle with the Wan Yao Army is even worse. It was in danger, and even a slight disturbance could cause the whole situation to be in turmoil, not to mention the fact that the door was about to let go of the elixir trade, such a big news that was unknown but destined to stir up the situation!

He was no longer in the mood to play around with Shi Song, and so was Liu Yelan. It would be a waste of time to continue talking with Shi Song at this time, and Liu Yelan never did such pointless things.

The two unexpectedly bid farewell at the same time, and then they looked at each other and smiled, without looking at Shi Song's expression, they immediately went out.

Outside the gate of Dingzhou Hall, Tong Qing was anxious to find out the truth, but Liu Yelan wanted to go to the Dongfu to resettle Qiong's siblings first. The two had known each other for many years, so they didn't need to pay attention to those formalities, so they hurriedly parted ways and bid farewell.

The siblings, who were still rejoicing just now, didn't know what happened. They clearly received good news, but Master Liu and Master Tong didn't hesitate, and took them away without even inquiring about the news.

Qiongying was even more apprehensive, wondering if her reckless younger brother said something wrong and offended the two real people.

Since the death of her father, she has held up a small world as a girl, and she has gritted her teeth through many hardships and obstacles. Her temperament is no different from that of a man. The end is very clear: she and brother can step into this majestic sect, all thanks to the help of Zhenren Liu and his friends, Zhenren Liu is the biggest reliance on which they can get help, and the most important thing in the whole sect. People who may sincerely help them.

Liu Yelan's expression was unclear, which made Qiongying feel a little more uneasy.

After arriving at the cave and settled down, Liu Yelan vaguely saw Qiongying restraining Qiongyong in a low voice to speak less and practice more, not to walk around at will, let alone ask himself questions, Liu Yelan dispelled all the speculations in his mind.

At this moment, the situation in the entire Ziluomen, and even the entire Zhanwu League, is like a big game of chess covered in clouds and mountains. Even if he is a well-known alchemist, Liu Yelan has to admit that he is just a piece of chess in this chess game. The chess pieces that are insignificant in the situation can't even spy on the situation. What's the use of guessing, no matter what the impact is, it can't be covered by soldiers.

Hearing the faint voices of the two siblings, Liu Yelan couldn't help but think that when Qionghua returned to the Hanxiang Realm, she always felt that Qionghua wasted her talent and made no progress on the road without any pursuit, and she even felt a little contemptuous The old man didn't see clearly the essence of the law of the jungle in this realm of cultivation: Only those who have the strength can talk about protection, otherwise it's a joke.

Even Qionghua's ending had already been thought of by Liu Yelan many years ago.

The reason why he chose to practice alchemy is because he has already determined that he, who has no family background and does not want to cling to him, can only go further and further on the road by using the way of elixirs. Alchemy and cultivation are not weaker than those famous disciples.

When the Qiong brothers and sisters came to find me and found out about Qionghua, besides sighing with emotion, there was also a faint sense of complacency: my original choice was ultimately correct, so what if Qionghua was able to protect her hometown for a while? Not enough strength... After his death, who can protect his hometown and the two children behind him?

But now, the situation is complicated and difficult to distinguish, and it will inevitably turn into a situation of torrential rain and tigers devouring whales in the next moment. He has never been so clearly aware that he, Liu Yelan...has practiced for hundreds of years, so what, in such a dangerous situation In the unpredictable situation, if he is not careful, his bones will be gone.

In such a chess game with boundaries and big factions as pawns, he is nothing more than an ant, he can only drift with the flow, and let those powerful chess players behind him decide his fate...

He couldn't help but wonder, was he really right?Is Qionghua really wrong?

If it is said that cultivation determines everything, he has practiced for hundreds of years, but if the situation changes and he dies, all his past cultivation efforts...wouldn't it be a big joke?

Qionghua has protected his homeland for hundreds of years at least, but what about him?Climbing up with one heart and one mind, but in the end it just disappeared...

Liu Yelan looked up at the sky, but his heart was clearer than ever before. In the world of cultivation, no matter how ambitious and upward the Taoist heart is... in such a treacherous situation, there are many ants who can't escape the death and dao disappearance. The ending, right and wrong, right and wrong... The Taoism in Liu Yelan's heart was shaken like never before.

Liu Yelan collected his thoughts, thinking of the pair of siblings who plunged in, he might not be able to deal with them as he thought at first, leaving Qiong Yong behind and let Qiongying go back?

There is still no word on how this Lingxi Pill got there, and whether it stays in Ziluomen or returns to Hanxiang Realm, the situation is unclear, and it is still unknown which is more dangerous.

Since the two brothers and sisters jumped in because of the love of their old friends, Liu Yelan couldn't just sit back and watch them be torn and swallowed by the changing situation.

He didn't say much, just knocked on the door and said simply: "The situation is complicated now, it's not as simple as what I heard today, I will come and find a way for Lingxi Pill, you stay here in my cave, at least for now It should be safe and sound."

Qiong Yong foolishly agreed, but Qiongying was startled. What kind of situation would make Liu Zhenren emphasize the safety here?

And no matter how Qiong Yong slept soundly, how worried Qiongying was, how caring Liu Yelan was, and how Tong Qing inquired about the news... The people who smelled the wind in the entire Ziluomen were all like this, some were dull and dull, and some were silent. Waiting and watching, some people heard the news and made a move, but in the end, no one expected that the announcement of the news would be made to everyone equally, regardless of their attitudes, without prioritization, and at the same time.

Everyone here, even people outside the Violet Gate.

The Zhanwu League issued a notice to all the monks in the alliance through the various sects: From now on, the Zhanwu League will launch the magic weapon "Meng Ding" in the alliance.

Liu Yelan received this message through at least three channels: Zhanwu League, Zi Luomen, and Duobao Pavilion, which had been traded before. In the projection attached to the message, the magic weapon alliance tripod looked like a small The Dan Ding, however, was engraved with the logo of the Zhanwu League, but the most glaring thing for Liu Yelan was that this League Dingod was exactly the same as the colorful appearance of the Ding Zhou Hall. Those who have seen both... will never believe it.

The alliance tripod in the projection soon produced other changes. The gemstones inlaid on the tripod lit up sequentially, and the alliance tripod projected different colors of goods. During the projection, the monk who operated the alliance tripod turned over the selection, and after confirming the goods , Not far away, the magic weapon was flying to put away the spirit stones and put down the goods... This scene was all too familiar to the countless monks of the Zhanwu League-it was clearly the same as that indescribable treasure in the palm!

At the end of the summons, there was an order issued in the name of the Zhanwu League's council: From now on, all material collection and all spiritual item transactions in the Zhanwu League must be completed through the League Ding.

The meeting... This is the core organization where all the big forces in the Zhanwu League gather to discuss and make decisions. If orders can be issued in the name of the meeting, there is only one explanation: the Zhanwu League, the promotion of the alliance by all the forces A consensus has been reached.

Liu Yelan pondered the message carefully for a while, and then took out a small thing from his sleeve. Compared with Meng Ding's deliberate pursuit of simple and thick shape, this magic weapon is undoubtedly much more slender and dexterous. It is a very popular palm treasure in various unofficial channels in the Zhanwu League.

This thing was given to him by Tong Qing. Liu Yelan devoted himself to cultivating hard. In terms of cultivation resources, he cultivated alchemy. Almost all resources can be satisfied in Ziluomen. Tong Qing gave him this because he felt that In the entire Zhanwu League, not to mention those famous people, even those who know how to exploit and change, Liu Yelan can't be too far away from the times, so he forcefully stuffed him with one. .

Liu Yelan hadn't used the Eight Classics much, but it didn't prevent him from understanding the working principle of the whole Palm Treasure with a monk's intuition. He felt earlier that the most wonderful thing about this thing was not in refining, but also in refining. It's not the inner formation, but the ingenuity.

When Liu Yelan was still a casual cultivator in his early years, he knew very well that if there was no sect to rely on as a monk, it would be extremely difficult to obtain the spiritual objects needed for cultivation, even if one had a good skill, through trading.

Some spiritual objects are scattered in the worlds of Zhoutian, and some spiritual objects are only monopolized by those famous sects. To meet some needs, however, the entrance of Shouyixuan cannot cover every small world, or it should be said that the place where Shouyixuan is located must be a place with dense spiritual energy and dense population. In such a place...how can casual cultivators pay? From the high price that has been accumulating for many years?At most, it’s just a hasty departure, and it’s just a matter of going to Yixuan to try one’s luck with the items and needs of the transaction. The success of this kind of luck-like transaction can be imagined, and this is already in a good state among casual cultivators. .

And more monks rely on the Xiuzhen Square Market, and in the large and small Square Markets, it is even more luck.Putting up a street stall in the hope that someone will come to exchange with exactly what you need, and even picking up a big leak in this kind of transaction and discovering a few natural and earthly treasures that others have not noticed, so as to make a fortune on the road... This is almost comprehension There are so many cultivators in the storybook, so many cultivators, and so many monks from all over the world, how lucky is it to meet a few monks who bring what they need?

Or if you really want to guard such a monk, how much time will it take to just set up a stall, don't you want to practice?

As for the large and small shops in the square city, it is a place where dragons and snakes are mixed and the water is extremely deep. The shops that can gain a foothold in the square city must have the figures of various forces behind them. To be fair, they should suppress casual cultivators It's unreasonable to exchange things for them at their price... It's not unreasonable to trade first and then rob.

And this can already be regarded as the fate of casual cultivators with fair fate. More casual cultivators, even because of lack of resources, live in a small world with poor aura and poor pockets. It is an extremely extravagant thing that is difficult to do.

Resource trading, this is not the most difficult of the many difficulties faced by casual cultivators, but it is the most common challenge.

Liu Yelan walked step by step from the middle. At first, he just casually watched the little thing called Palm Treasure, but later, he developed admiration for the power behind it.

Being able to dedicate huge resources to this meritorious deed, so that all monks, regardless of their background and background, regardless of their resources, can trade at an equal and fair price, is something Liu Yelan dared not dream of throughout his career as a casual cultivator. What he thought about, but it became a reality hundreds of years after he finally bowed his head to reality and joined a martial arts sect, he couldn't help but lament that the way of heaven is tricking people.

When Qiong's siblings mentioned the treasure in the palm earlier, Liu Yelan couldn't understand the significance of this thing to Qiong's. Like the Hanxiang world, there is nothing to produce without any backing power. If Qiongying didn't get the palm by chance Treasures can be exchanged for materials, so how could it be possible for the Hanxiang world to support it for so long after Qionghua left?

Later, when Zhang Zhongbao launched many magical weapons against the demon clan, Liu Yelan couldn't help but feel very worried about the "boldness" of the forces behind it who dared to do fair business with the major forces in the Zhoutian world.

The magic weapon aimed at the monster clan is something that all major forces must want to hold firmly in their hands. Liu Yelan can't see through the forces behind this treasure in the palm, but he knows that although the other party also has strength, they can't hide their deeds from hiding their heads and showing their tails. It can be deduced that he must not dare to openly provoke the Zhanwu League. This is like a child carrying a gold brick in a busy market, how could it not attract covetousness?

Sure enough, Liu Yelan was not surprised at all when the news of the closure of Palm Treasure's trading came out. It would take a lot of time and resources to establish a fair and just trading system, but it's so easy to destroy, all it takes is a little ambition and Just be greedy.Squatting at a fixed point, sniping at the flying magic weapon, as long as the greed is not extinguished, there are thousands of ways to make you unsustainable, not to mention the forces behind this treasure in the palm, where is the Shou Yixuan who spanned all realms and made a lot of money back then? ?

It's a pity that there are tens of thousands of helpless and weak forces like the Qiong family in the Hanxiang world behind this treasure in the palm. , how many people can be as lucky as the Qiongying siblings, can have such a father, and such an old friend with his father?

Behind Palm Treasure's closure... I don't know how many casual cultivators and small powers cried blood and tears, but in the eyes of those big powers, how much are the crying tears of ants worth?

He really wasn't one of those big men. He thought that the other party's sniping was the limit in order to control the worlds, expel the unknown forces, and even covet the trading items on the flying magic weapon. After that, the real killer move is waiting here - Meng Ding.

A magic weapon that looks like the treasure in the palm, but Liu Yelan feels cold all over.

Liu Yelan looked at the radiant League Ding in the projection, his eyes could not help showing desolation, he couldn't help but look at the last sentence of the order from the Yuzhanwu League Council: "...no monks are allowed to cross the League Ding to trade without authorization. The crime of betraying the alliance will be punished, and those who violate this order will be rewarded by the alliance."

What a alliance tripod, Liu Yelan can already imagine how many disputes and conspiracies will be behind this, how much blood and tears will be hard to dry.

I am afraid that he will not be able to make the decisions of these big men in this life, and he can take no matter how much suffering he has to face when he raises his hands and overturns.

Liu Yelan sat withered until dawn because of this seemingly innocuous order, but Tong Qing, who had been running around for several days looking for news, finally showed up.

And Tong Qing was really different from Liu Yelan, not only did he come, he also brought not too many, not too many, four alliance tripods.

Even if he is a big monk, he can't help showing fatigue at this time: "Huh, fortunately, enough is produced in this bastard alliance."

In this tone, it is impossible to tell whether it is praise or sarcasm.

Liu Yelan's face was expressionless, Tong Qing knew that Liu Yelan was a human being, besides hard work, there was actually some uprightness in her heart that most monks in the cultivation world looked down upon.

Seeing his demeanor, one can know his attitude towards the actions of the Zhanwu League this time. However, according to Tong Qing, the actions of the Zhanwu League are interlocking. From the closing of the transaction to the release of the Ding Ding... even the Ding Ding can prepare so much in one go, it must have been brewing for a long time, thinking about the word "Ding" and the origin with Ding Zhoutang, maybe even from the Since the day of Ding Zhoutang, the senior officials of their Ziluomen have been planning this matter. Before that, even Tong Qing had not received any information in advance. I am afraid that among the various forces behind the plot, this matter may also Must be top secret.

With such a big plan and so much effort, the interests involved behind it must be huge and complicated to the point of unimaginable, and behind this interest, from the order issued in the name of the Chamber of Commerce, it can be seen that behind the interest must be the entire Zhanwu League. The result after the big forces have seized benefits and divided them up.

The product of the unification and coordination of so many major forces can almost be said to represent the highest will of the entire Zhanwu League, and its arms cannot twist its thighs. What's more, monks like them, in front of such an interest group, let alone their arms, say they are I am afraid that the fine hairs are all flattery, and it is of no benefit to think about it.

Therefore, Tong Qing had no choice but to suppress the grievance deep in her heart, and said instead: "At least that person surnamed Shi didn't lie to us, with the League Ding, the Lingxi Pill transaction of your old friend's family can be settled. "

Isn't it?

When Shi Song sent them away that day, he made it clear that there would be no problem in the future between Hanxiang Realm and Zi Luomen to trade Lingxi Pills. From now on, it can indeed be realized with this alliance tripod.

It's just that thinking about it now, the sound transmission that Shi Song received back then might have been news from Meng Ding. If he knew such top-secret news a few days in advance, it would be hard to believe that Ding Zhoutang had nothing to do with the planning of this matter.

Tong Qing sighed, and in front of her acquaintance, she still couldn't hold back and said, "Did you know that General Liu is back."

Liu Yelan raised his eyebrows. On that day, Shangguanzheng challenged Qi Yunlie in the name of looking for Liu Danren and others. Now that Meng Ding has appeared, Liu Danren has also returned... Thinking about it this way, the timing of Shangguanzheng's attack is too coincidental?It's as if... already knew in advance that the Dingmeng League was going to be released, and just chose at that time to launch an attack in the name of a certain Dingzhoutang that was difficult to parry?And Ding Zhoutang... also happened to be the main participant of the League Ding, maybe even one of the main planners?

Thinking about the well-known ambitions of Ziluomen's top management, maybe Ding Zhou Tang wanted to use the plan of Meng Ding to achieve its goal at the beginning of its establishment!

It's not impossible.

"Who will take care of this... the League Ding Dharma Artifact?"

Tong Qing naturally knew the meaning behind Liu Yelan's question, he smiled wryly: "Of course it's Ding Zhoutang."

Originally thought that the origin of the three characters in the name was nothing more than aspirations for Zhou Tian, ​​but who would have imagined that there was such an ambitious and indeed huge and complicated plan behind it.

In this way, everything is also very clear.

With the forcible promotion of the League Ding (cannot be traded privately, who in the entire Zhanwu League would dare not have a League Ding), Zi Luomen easily collected the original Xiaomeng Cave's materials and cross-border transactions Loosely embraced him, at least, it seemed so on the surface.

It has to be said that the unknown forces behind that really helped the Ziluomen a lot, otherwise, Liu Yelan sneered, with the brains of those great monks, after the defeat of Suojing Xingyun, the Ziluomen even blocked the pill. You can do everything in the medicine trade, but you don't know what to do to seize the status and realize your ambition. Now, at least after Zi Luomen easily copied the magic weapon idea of ​​the unknown force, this seemingly impossible ambition It was achieved easily in such a way.

But Liu Yelan couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "There is no good or evil in the divine weapon...it depends on the heart of the sword holder."

These words were a bit harsh, Tong Qing didn't dare to accept them.

He just turned around and said: "I thought Shangguan was really asking for an explanation for the subordinates..." Then he smiled wryly: "It turns out that he just received the news in advance to get a share of the action."

Shangguan Zhengzheng has a high prestige in Ziluomen, for his dignified character, everyone in the school respects him very much, and Tong Qing, after a few days of running around to inquire about all kinds of news, is not a stupid big monk after all, knowing the inside story Inevitably there will be some disillusionment.

Liu Yelan's expression was indifferent: "The prosperity of the world is all for the benefit. Frontline cultivators also need spiritual support."

Tong Qing smiled wryly: "That's true...but I, alas, that's all." He raised his spirits: "Call out your little friend from the Qiong family, and let's see what is so special about this little tripod promoted by the League. where?"
