Chapter 5 Sangji City

The old Taoist Yunshan said, "That's natural. Shangqing Mountain is the first immortal sect of the Eastern Qin Kingdom. With this method, you can explore the path of cultivation of immortals. Is this good? As long as you can cultivate the foundation, you can not only summon wind and rain, move mountains and seas, and have great magical powers, and even your life span can increase by three or four hundred. Do you think these people can't remember them? The old Taoist I got the first practice method of East Thailand by chance. That's it. It's because of this that I came out of the siege of dozens of people to have the opportunity to practice. It took me more than thirty years to cultivate to the seventh level of Qi refining."

Zhang Zhexue looked at the old Taoist Yunshan in surprise. He didn't expect that it would take more than thirty years to practice the seventh level of Qi refining. If he practiced to build a foundation, wouldn't it take a hundred years? He knew that it would be very difficult to practice kung fu to go further. According to the age of the old Taoist Yunshan, I don't know if there is still a chance to cultivate the foundation. If he cannot build the foundation, he will eventually fall into dust and turn into bones.

"Master, are you living a long life this year?" For such a long time, Zhang Zhexue had never asked about the age of Master Yunshan, nor did he think of asking. Today, he was curious and asked.

"I am already eighty-three years old this year." The old Taoist Yunshan sighed secretly.

Zhang Zhexue always thought that the old Taoist Yunshan was only over fifty years old, but he didn't expect that he was over eighty years old. That is to say, since the old Taoist Yunshan obtained this three-yuan Qi Refining Method, he has hardly grown old. So, wouldn't it mean that as long as he practiced well, he could never grow old? This is a temptation, a very serious temptation. As long as he can practice, wouldn't it mean that he will never grow old for at least a hundred years? With his handsome appearance in this life, wouldn't he be able to attract countless beautiful girls? Good things, good things, you must learn, and you must learn them. Zhang Zhexue gritted his teeth and thought.

The old Taoist Yunshan looked at Zhang Zhexue and continued, "I am not qualified as a teacher, and when I started practicing, I was already old and my qi and blood were exhausted, so it took me more than 30 years to cultivate to the seventh level of Qi refining. If I had the opportunity to practice when I was young, I thought that the wisdom of a teacher would be enough to cultivate to build the foundation in thirty years. Now if I want to advance to build the foundation, I must have great opportunities."

Seeing that the old Taoist Yunshan was a little depressed, Zhang Zhexue persuaded him: "Master, don't be discouraged. Who can tell the right thing about this? Not to mention others, your disciple, I was attacked and killed by someone in the previous life. Who knows that I can live in this world again and live again? This shows that I am a person with great opportunity. If you can pick me up, should you also say an opportunity? Maybe the opportunity for you to advance to build the foundation in the future will fall on my disciple."

The old Taoist Yunshan tilted his head and thought for a while, and laughed: "You kid can persuade people. But what you said makes sense. Who can say the right thing is right? Maybe you are really an opportunity for your teacher. If you kid is able to live a resurgence when you encounter a big disaster, you are indeed a person with great blessings. Haha, if you are a teacher, you will borrow your luck."

Zhang Zhexue laughed and said, "It's easy to say, who will be with us?!"

The old Taoist Yunshan said: "This time I change the place, I have to change my appearance, otherwise I will still look like it decades ago, and someone will always recognize it."

Seeing that the old Taoist Yunshan said this, Zhang Zhexue was very curious. When he was very young, he wanted to know how Sun Wukong's seventy-two transformations changed. At this time, someone could change in front of him, so how could he not stare at it? After taking a deep breath, a crackling sound came from his body, as if a gust of air was swelling in his body, blowing his clothes and dancing.

Zhang Zhexue widened his eyes and watched the figure of the old Taoist Yunshan slowly faded half his head. His originally thin figure and face became plump, and he became a man who walked on the street without anyone looking at him. When the old Taoist Yunshan stabilized his changes, he hurriedly asked, "Master, what kind of magic are you?"

While tidying up his clothes, the old Taoist Yunshan said, "This is not a magic, it is a skill learned by a master more than ten years ago. It only relies on internal energy to change the body. There are always endless experts in this world. This method of change can only be achieved with acquired internal strength. This shows how smart the person who created this secret method is."

Zhang Zhexue asked: "Master, when did you teach me this art of change?"

The old Taoist Yunshan smiled and said, "When you practice until the innate qi sprouts, you can learn it."

"How long does it take for me to practice what you said is the time when the innate energy sprouts?"

The old Taoist Yunshan looked at Zhang Zhexue and said, "I don't know."

"So when did you start teaching me to practice?"

"Let's teach you when we settle down."

"Yes, I can't calm down and have no intention of learning. So where are we going?"

"Sangji City."

The Eastern Qin State is located at the easternmost point of the Nanyun Continent. Going further east is the Zhuxianhai. The Eastern Qin State has a narrow terrain, with a north-south of more than 600,000 miles and a east-west of more than 100,000 miles. It is not the smallest country in the entire Nanyun Continent, but it is not the largest country. There are seven or eight countries larger than the Eastern Qin State, such as the Western Qin State, the Northern Han State, the Junshan Empire, etc.

Sangji City is located at the junction of the Eastern Qin and Western Qin. It is located in the middle of the buffer zone of the two events. It is a city that is not in charge. Therefore, it is a mixed bag of fish and dragons. The wanted thieves from the two countries gather here. The evil bandits and giant bandits gathered here. When the old Taoist Yunshan was still a Yunshu Chen He, he had been hiding in Sangji City for more than ten years, so he is more familiar with this city.

Sangji City was built on the mountain. Half of the city was spread out on the plains, and the other half was built up along the mountain. The entire city was more than 90 miles east and west, and the city wall was ten feet high. Before the Great Qin Empire was divided into the Eastern Qin Kingdom and the Western Qin Kingdom, this city was located in the hinterland of the Great Qin Empire. It was originally the summer palace for the Emperor of the Great Qin Empire to escape the summer heat, so it was built very tall and majestic. Since the two princes of the Great Qin Empire competed for the throne five hundred years ago and divided the Great Qin Empire into the Eastern Qin and Western Qin Kingdoms, this place has become a military buffer for the two countries.

Although the city lord of Sangji City was sent by the Eastern Qin Kingdom, he was just a nominal city lord. The city lord's order could not leave the inner city or could not go down the mountain at all. If the city lord wanted to implement his order outside the inner city, then in less than three days, the city lord would die inexplicably on the bed. Yes, it was indeed on the bed, and there was never an exception. Of course, he would never die very beautifully, and basically he would separate his body and head.

In fact, the inner city is controlled by the three families of Zhou, Chen and Ge, and has been controlled by these three families since five hundred years ago. For hundreds of years, these three families have controlled more than 8 million people except the inner city.

Zhang Zhexue followed the old Taoist Yunshan on the road for half a year before he arrived in Sangji City. This was his first time to enter a large city in this world. On the way to Sangji City, the old Taoist Yunshan tried to walk around wilderness and rarely entered the city. Looking for food in the wild is not a problem for the old Taoist Yunshan, so apart from adding some clothes, they did not need to enter a densely populated city.

Along the way, Zhang Zhexue discovered that the old Taoist Yunshan was actually very rich, and no matter how much he saved the money on the road, he had never seen the old Taoist Yunshan unable to pay. Although Zhang Zhexue didn't know where the old Taoist Yunshan's money was placed, he always saw a steady stream of silver taken out of the old Taoist Yunshan's arms.

When he first came out of Yunshan, Master Yunshan generously bought Zhang Zhexue a few decent clothes, which made Zhang Zhexue very satisfied. He wanted to ask why Master Yunshan had money before but refused to spend it. After thinking about it, he still couldn't speak. After all, Master Yunshan belonged to Master Yunshan. If he asked too much and he refused to pay the money so generously, wouldn't that be a loss?

The master and apprentice entered the city from the west gate of Sangji City. The west gate is the most chaotic place in Sangji City. The thieves, giant bandits, liars and thieves all lived here. Back then, the old Taoist Yunshan had been scattered here. Zhang Zhexue looked at the crowded market and felt that everything was very novel. Overall, it looked like the African market on Earth, but it was much larger.

The old Taoist Yunshan had returned to his original appearance at this time, and both Zhang Zhexue were wearing Taoist robes.

The old Taoist took Zhang Zhexue through the bustling city and walked into a secluded alley. At the end of the alley was a teahouse. The shop was so quiet that there was no customer. Only a guy was lying on the counter to sleep. The old Taoist Yunshan walked to the counter and reached out and tapped it gently. The guy raised his head when he heard the sound, looked at the old Taoist in a daze, and then woke up after a shiver and asked, "Customer, are you drinking tea?"

The old Taoist Yunshan took out a wooden sign from his arms and put it on the counter. The guy took it over and looked at it, and said, "Customer, wait a moment, and the younger one will go."

At the time of tea, the guy came back and said to the old Taoist Yunshan: "Call, please come with me, please."

The three of them walked to the backyard. There was a rockery near the wall of the backyard. The guy moved the rockery for a while, and the rockery quietly moved away to the side, revealing a secret door. When they pushed the door in, it was a narrow alley. The three of them walked through the alley and through a garden, and then they arrived in a bamboo house. The bamboo house was built very elegantly, as if it was woven from living bamboos, and the bamboo poles and bamboo leaves were still green. The guy asked Yunshan master and apprentice to sit down, poured two cups of tea, and said, "Two people sit for a while, and my master will arrive later." As he said that, he left the bamboo house and returned to the store.

After sitting for a while, a middle-aged man dressed in a man's clothes came over from outside, entered the bamboo house and stood firm. Seeing the Taoist priest dressed up as a master and apprentice, he bowed and said, "Master, Zhiheng is polite." Old Taoist Yunshan and Zhang Zhexue hurriedly stood up and returned the gift.

The three of them sat down, and the man named Zhiheng asked straight to the point: "I wonder where can I serve the Taoist priest?"
