Sect Leader Is Under Great Pressure
Chapter 147
Zhongzhou, Qiong'an Haicheng, Quangang
The stream of people was in a hurry, and the sweaty trackers were pulling several large ships into suitable berths in the harbor. Lifu struggled to resist the heavy cargo and got off the sampan and moved them to the bullock cart next to him. From time to time, large ships sailed out of the port, and When the new ship docked, several petty officials led their men to collect the docking fee at the berth, and argued with the ship owner from time to time.
Ordinary people are as busy as usual, and there is no numbness in their vitality, and they always look very energetic.
The sun was high, and the busy peasants found a pergola to rest under the scorching sun, and gnawed on water hyacinths, discussing from time to time which lucky fellow was found by the big ship owner to carry the goods. The goods on the ship are precious and there are more. There are good things like rewards of tens of dollars, and I laugh out loud from time to time, saying that I hope to encounter them one day.
While chatting lively, a man with sharp ears suddenly heard a clear and distant ringing of the boat bell, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Fairy boat?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone froze for a while.
After a few breaths, someone said embarrassingly: "Maybe I misheard, the fairy ship only comes once in more than ten years, and it has only been three years since the last time, so it's not that fast."
But in the next second, another melodious boat bell rang, caught by the folks who had already pricked up their ears.
This time, no one said anything, but picked up sticks and rushed to the port.
On the far sea, a group of large ships revealed their magnificent masts.
Soon, the ship's bell rang, and the huge sea expedition ship slowly docked.
On the big boat, Bai Ruolan squeezed the money bag that Ji Mingyu had given her back then, and Bai Ruolan, who was kicked out without graduating from Kunlai, looked at the simple and quaint pier and frowned slightly—it was nearly ten miles away from the shoreline of Haijing, the water depth Compared with the huge seaport of nearly [-] meters, where nearly [-] large ships are moored at any time, the coastline of the port, which is less than [-] meters here, is like a rabbit next to an elephant, which is not worth seeing.
And the people who received the goods on the ship were not monks and wealthy businessmen like Haijing, but a group of poorly dressed civilians, holding stick pockets, who looked like poor people.
This made her look confused, and she couldn't help but ask her new friend next to her: "Brother Chang, do you think Joan is the largest seaport in Central Continent?"
In the first half of the ship, the sea expedition ship they took finally arrived in Central Continent. Originally, the sea expedition ship’s route was to circle around the South China Sea islands, then go up from Nanzhou, and make a large circle to Central Continent. This would take about three years. , but when their ship reached the border of the South China Sea on the way, Hai Guozhu suddenly ordered them to change their course to the north, go straight to the Central Continent, and then go down to the south, from the South Continent to the South China Sea islands.
In this way, the time to go to Central Continent was shortened to just over two months. Of course, Bai Ruolan agreed with this very much. She was bored on the boat, and she also met a monk who claimed to be from the Central Continent Sect. She knew a lot of anecdotes about Central Continent. The four major academies and the three major academies mentioned above are very yearning, and they have long looked forward to the "Central Continent's No.
Hearing the words, the young monk next to her gave her a strange look, and asked, "That's right...wait, don't you think that all the seaports in the world are like Haijing City?"
Bai Ruolan froze, she definitely felt that it would not be like that, but she never thought that it would be so different!
"Girl, don't think too much," the young monk said as he walked down the port, "Haijing is a fairy port built by monks. What kind of place is this? It's just a port built by mortals. Look at that How easy is it to build a sea plank road hundreds of meters deep with more than a dozen sticks underwater.”
Bai Ruolan was speechless, feeling extremely anxious for a moment, but she gritted her teeth and followed.
And on the top floor of the cabin behind her, two handsome young men with extraordinary temperament were sitting at the table drinking tea to bid farewell.
Seeing Bai Ruolan leave the deck, Xie Fuzhou shook his head and sighed: "It's another rabbit that has entered the wolf's lair."
Feng Qingxiu looked at the back of the girl going away, frowned and said: "What's the explanation?"
"There are many outer disciples in Kunlai who failed the exams and were not selected. They are unwilling to give up the road of cultivating immortals, and they also despise the small sects in Xizhou. Some disciples like to go to Central Continent by boat to find the great sects and enter the immortal road." Xie Fuzhou shook the teacup lightly in his hand, watched the green tea leaves floating and sinking in the water, and said with a light smile, "It's just that they think too much, in today's Central Continent, even the double spirit roots are not easy to mix, let alone those miscellaneous spirit roots. "
"Everyone has their own aspirations, so you can't force it." Feng Qingxiu didn't ask why he didn't stop it, sometimes if people think the answer is to tell him the truth, he won't admit it.
"Junior Brother, Senior Brother can only send you here." Xie Fuzhou put down his teacup and said solemnly, "Central Continent is not as peaceful as Western Continent. Here, the three main sects compete with each other, and among them there are 36 middle sects. As for those who have too many disciples, I won’t talk about it, but if you go to Central Continent, remember not to trust any monks, let alone reveal your identity as Kunlai of Xizhou, otherwise you will definitely get into trouble.”
In fact, he had already told Feng Qingxiu these words during the past few months on the boat, but before leaving, he was still worried, and even thought of going up to accompany his junior brother for a while, but this was just a thought , if he goes to Central Continent, it is estimated that hundreds of monks will come to him in a short time-the Lord of Haijing is not a peerless monk in their eyes, but a hoof full of oil The big fat sheep!
"Thank you, brother, I have already remembered that you said that there are many monk sects in Central Continent these years, and the treasures of heaven, material and earth have been confiscated several times. Even ordinary spiritual objects will be expensive, so you must be careful when entering and leaving Central Continent." Be careful and don't reveal your identity." Of course Feng Qingxiu would accept her brother's affection, and she had already prepared 12 points for going to Central Continent.
This level is not enough—but Hai Guozhu also knows that some things still need to be experienced personally, so he sighed quietly: "Be careful on the road, I will sink a sea ship hundreds of miles away in the open sea, pretending to be a coral reef. When you return to Central Continent, you only need to blow the conch, and the sea boat will automatically come to you."
He didn't give any magic weapon to protect the younger brother. Anyway, the younger brother can carry the sect master with him, nothing can compare to it, and the master was also a monk who lived in Central Continent for hundreds of years. It should be no problem to bring an apprentice.
Feng Qingxiu nodded: "Then thank you brother."
Since the matter in the South China Sea was temporarily over, Senior Brother Yang Juyin brought Wu Zhan back to Haijing first, and the Hai Guozhu covered them up, so he changed the route and brought the fleet to Zhongzhou first. The loss of goods along the way was nothing but Extremely amazing.
"Well, go quickly, I will stay here for a few more days, as a cover." Xie Fuzhou said softly.
"Senior brother is also careful all the way, junior brother will leave first." Feng Qingxiu got up to thank, and then turned to get off the boat.
Xie Fuzhou watched him go away from the bow, disappeared into the sea of people, looked at the bustling city, sighed in a low voice, Master, why do you need to go back to Central Continent?
----
In Qiong'an City, Feng Qingxiu looked at the flow of people coming and going, and felt as if she had returned to her hometown town before entering Kunlai, she felt a little emotional for a while.
The events of that year were as far away as in a dream. He shook his head and waved away the momentary emotion. Looking at the road out of the city, he planned to find a smaller place to fly away with his sword. After all, there are many people in this city. In Zhongzhou, one thing is too much, but one thing is not much.
But before he had gone far, there was already a short and fat man standing in front of him. The man had an ordinary face, but was slightly fat, with small eyes and a big nose, and he smiled very kindly: "Shangxian, I think you are that Those who got on and off the fairy ship, can you take a step to speak?"
"I'm sorry, I have something important to do." Feng Qingxiu politely declined, this man is a bit cultivated, but the Qi training period is nothing to him now.
"Wait, Shangxian, I just want to buy your boarding order. You can't use it once, so please do me a favor!" The man begged, "Not everyone can get on a fairy ship, but there is one. According to the shipping order, it will be much more convenient for us to pick up and use the goods."
Feng Qingxiu raised his hand and threw him a jade buckle, which was given to him by Hai Guozhu, and asked him to give it to others at the right time.
Ignore his gratitude and turn to leave.
Soon, the jade was in the hands of the senior officials of Qiong'an City.
"This ship order is lavender, and it seems to be used exclusively by the Taiqing sect." A familiar head of various boarding orders whispered.
"This..." The man sitting in the seat of the city lord immediately whispered, "Let's pass on the order, don't keep an eye on it, people from the Taiqing faction are not something we can eat."
"That's right, we are affiliated with Ziyun Immortal Dao, and Taiqing has long coveted our Qiong'an Port, and we must not give them any excuses to make trouble!" Someone beside him echoed.
"Yes, because of the sea conquest these years, our Qiong'an's income has been getting higher and higher, and we have controlled nearly half of the goods trade from Xizhou. The Taiqing Xianmen and Jietiandao have been dissatisfied for a long time. We must not lose the big because of small things!" A man dressed as a guard said in a deep voice, "Relying on the trade of the sea country, we have made a lot of income these years, and the people who ruled have also gained a lot of benefits. If we lose the harbor because of this, Ziyun Immortal Dao will blame us, and we can't afford it. "
"That's right," another principal said suddenly, "By the way, why did the sea expedition ship enter the port three years in advance, and now we haven't prepared the property exchange yet, I'm afraid we will suffer a loss!"
A hundred years ago, their place was just a small city, but because the sea conquest ship had to stop for supplies, it slowly grew, taking in the civilians who couldn't survive, and became the leading big city in the south, even getting the attention of Ziyun Road's high-level officials.
"I have already inquired over there, and said that this time there is a demon saint in the sea in the South China Sea who is angry, so the sea expedition ship temporarily avoids it and arrives at our Joan'an first. This is a great opportunity. Of course we are not ready, they must also There is no preparation, now we are going to fight fast, tell the new elders, we must do our best to mobilize the surrounding property, and seize this opportunity!" The city lord resolutely said.
"But the elder Xiao Yuan who came this time seems to be very greedy. He has reached out to us for property several times in the past few months... I'm afraid something has changed." The person next to him whispered.
"Well, let's forget about it. We are preparing the goods. He will definitely come to ask for it again. We must prepare the evidence. There are not one or two elders who have been dragged into the water over the years!" "I heard that this elder is also a casual cultivator. He hooked up with a female fairy elder of Ziyun Dao and got the position of guest elder. After falling out of favor, he was exiled here. There is no backer, so it's easy to do!"
"That's right, that's right! It's best to let this elder find trouble with this Taiqing kid, let him know what is high and earthy, whether it is successful or not, we will all have one less trouble."
"That makes sense! I'll inform him right now!" Cheng Cheng pondered for a moment, then touched the handrail, "You guys have to make a plan, if the elder comes back from injury, we will buy the bid in secret, in short, this big event, don't let him get in the way !"
Everyone nodded. Buying a sign is a code word, and buying a murderer means killing someone, which is something they often do.
Every place in Central Continent has vicious rules, and newcomers are required to learn them with their lives.
The stream of people was in a hurry, and the sweaty trackers were pulling several large ships into suitable berths in the harbor. Lifu struggled to resist the heavy cargo and got off the sampan and moved them to the bullock cart next to him. From time to time, large ships sailed out of the port, and When the new ship docked, several petty officials led their men to collect the docking fee at the berth, and argued with the ship owner from time to time.

The sun was high, and the busy peasants found a pergola to rest under the scorching sun, and gnawed on water hyacinths, discussing from time to time which lucky fellow was found by the big ship owner to carry the goods. The goods on the ship are precious and there are more. There are good things like rewards of tens of dollars, and I laugh out loud from time to time, saying that I hope to encounter them one day.
While chatting lively, a man with sharp ears suddenly heard a clear and distant ringing of the boat bell, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Fairy boat?"
