Chapter 21 Signs (Two in One)
This is an anonymous gold note issued by Sihai Trading Company. With this note, you can go to any bank of Sihai Trading Company to withdraw the corresponding amount of gold! Five gold notes of 1,000 taels, that is, a total of 5,000 taels of gold!
This is gold, gold that is more than ten times more precious than silver!
There is no doubt that
With these five gold notes in hand, Yang Qingyun can be said to have become rich overnight!
In contrast,
The things in the warehouse seemed a little less.
The remaining two books recorded the secret techniques used by the Barbarian Bull Technique and the Explosive Qi Technique of the Golden Eyed Biao. There were also annotations from the other party on them. However, they were of little use to Yang Qingyun, and only served to broaden his horizons.
In the last three black wooden boxes, Yang Qingyun found a hundred-year-old blood ganoderma lucidum, and two Polygonum multiflorums that were two hundred and three hundred years old respectively.
This undoubtedly made Yang Qingyun extremely happy.
Not to mention the blood Ganoderma lucidum, this is a medicinal material that is more precious than ginseng. Simply decocting it can enhance the qi and blood of a warrior.
Moreover, it is over a hundred years old, and its medicinal power is amazing! Don’t think that the medicinal materials of the previous year are just so-so just because Yang Qingyun got a thousand-year-old mountain ginseng from Wangjia Village to lay the foundation for refining the blood and qi pill.
But that thousand-year-old mountain ginseng is priceless, and he was lucky enough to get it!
In fact, in some pharmacies in towns, medicinal materials such as ginseng that are two or three hundred years old are already the store’s treasures that are never sold outside!
"Yes, with these herbs and some auxiliary medicines, I can refine the Blood Strengthening Pill and speed up the improvement of my martial arts realm!"
A smile appeared on Yang Qingyun's face.
With the help of the Zhuangxue Pill, I am confident that I can reach the middle stage of entry within one or two months! Not long after, everyone in Huangshi Town who was chasing the Black Wind Bandits returned.
The encirclement and suppression campaign has come to an end.
The next step is naturally to clean up the battlefield and count the spoils.
Logically speaking, as the person who made the greatest contribution to the annihilation of the Black Wind Village, and also the strongest person whose strength surpassed the Black Wind Village's chief, Golden Eyed Biao, who could easily crush them , no one would say anything if he took away all the spoils on the mountain.
But Yang Qingyuan did not do so.
With the huge fortune of five thousand taels of gold notes, he also unexpectedly obtained three aged main medicinal materials that could be used to make elixirs.
The harvest has been extremely considerable.
Therefore, Yang Qingyun only took out part of the cash in the warehouse, as well as gold and silver utensils that were easy to convert into cash.
As for the piles of silks, jewels, jades, calligraphy and paintings, antiques, copper coins, instruments, etc. that were looted from the warehouse, they were allowed to divide them up among themselves.
Of course, there were also various trophies found on the bodies of the Black Wind Bandits, such as silver, weapons, horses, etc. Yang Qingyun did not look down on these insignificant things and asked them to deal with them all.
As for how to distribute,
For example, how to distribute the resettlement funds to those who died in battle, how much to give to the injured, and what to do with the large number of villagers rescued from the back mountain of Heifeng Village.
Naturally, these many chores must be handed over to Zhou Weilong to handle.
Yang Qingyuan's generous behavior undoubtedly won the admiration of everyone, who sighed and praised his noble character.
Yang Qingyun waved his hands and did not explain.
While Zhou Weilong was having a headache dealing with all kinds of chores, he found a relatively quiet and tidy place to recover the energy and blood consumed in this battle. At the same time, he felt what he had gained from this battle and practiced the sword-drawing technique again. He nurtured the momentum that had not dissipated after the battle with the Golden-Eyed Biao, and used it as his trump card for emergencies.
After a day of turmoil,
The matter has basically been resolved.
The remaining chores could also be handled by Zhou Weilong's martial arts disciples.
So Zhou Weilong planned to go back to Huangshi Town.
At this time, Yang Qingyun had just sorted out and absorbed what he had learned from this battle.
Zhou Weilong invited Yang Qingyun to visit Huangshi Town.
Yang Qingyun thought about it and nodded to accept the invitation.
Although Wangjia Village was his first place of residence, it was after all just a corner of the countryside, and there were not many cultivation resources available.
Previously, in order to refine the Blood Qi Pill, the villagers had to go to the town to buy auxiliary medicines.
This barren countryside,
It is a limitation to his future in martial arts.
As for Wangjia Village itself, he only stayed there for a few days and did not miss it much.
Yang Qingyun then sent someone to Wangjia Village to inform them that the matter had been resolved, and then he and Zhou Weilong set off directly for the town.
Along the way,
Zhou Weilong lowered his posture and communicated with Yang Qingyun.
Although he is a lot older than Yang Qingyun, he does not dare to be arrogant at all. Instead, he secretly looks up to Yang Qingyun.
And ask for advice humbly.
Seeing this, Yang Qingyun did not hesitate to give him some advice, including techniques for using qi and blood, and experience in controlling strength.
Although it was only entry-level knowledge, every bit of guidance hit the key points of his practice.
Zhou Weilong gained a lot, and even the bottleneck that had been stable for many years was vaguely cleared up at this moment!
This undoubtedly made Zhou Weilong very happy, and he thanked Yang Qingyun repeatedly and was extremely grateful.
Sometimes, seemingly insignificant advice from others can be a great opportunity for you to break through the bottleneck that you have been stuck in for years! This is the case for Zhou Weilong.
Yang Qingyun just nodded lightly and didn't care much.
These things are nothing to him.
It was rare that he had a good impression of him, so he might as well treat it as establishing some good relationship in advance. He didn't expect the other party to return the favor.
Just consider it as a reward for asking him about the various news about the martial arts world in the surrounding area along the way.
This also made Zhou Weilong sigh in his heart.
This little brother Yang Qingyun in front of him was born with an extraordinary background. When he gave him instructions, he always pointed out the core of the problem. He was not as arrogant as those genius children from famous families. He would definitely be a great figure in the martial arts world in the future! It would be worth it to have had a friendship with such a great figure when he was young! When he gets old,
If he returns to the countryside to live in seclusion, he might be able to brag to the younger generations at home about the famous figure in the martial arts world and that he and his family had fought bandits together in his youth!
When Zhou Weilong expressed this idea,
This made Yang Qingyun smile.
"Haha, Master Zhou, you must be joking. Who can predict the future?"
“Some people live a mediocre life for most of their lives, until one day they suddenly realize the truth, become late bloomers, comprehend the innate divine will, and soar to the sky overnight.”
"The road ahead is still long, and who knows what he will achieve in the future?"
Yang Qingyun smiled and shook his head. He knew that in twenty years, spiritual energy would revive and the great era would come. At that time, many people would rush to be the first and achieve great fame.
In that era, it was not uncommon for people to achieve enlightenment in old age and achieve great things late in life! "Young brother Yang, you are talking about Lord Gu Hanlin, the Southwest Supervisor of the Six Gates of the Great Chu, right?"
"That one is really a legend. It is said that he had never practiced martial arts before. After his family members were all killed, he hid in the imperial capital's library to avoid the pain in his heart. He stayed there for three years until he forgot himself. One night, the stars fell in the west. Under the interaction between heaven and man, he actually comprehended the innate form and gave birth to innate qi in his body. He directly crossed the four realms of martial arts, tempering the body, exchanging blood, and training the internal organs, and entered the innate realm!"
"There has never been such a brilliant person before. I dare not even dream of such a person!"
Zhou Weilong sighed with emotion, and a look of longing appeared on his face.
"Hmm? The stars in the sky fell to the west, and I entered the innate realm overnight?"
Yang Qingyun, who was riding on a horse, was stunned, and the horse under him couldn't help but stop at this moment.
"Yes, this matter has spread throughout the Great Chu. His Majesty the Emperor of Chu even summoned Lord Gu in person. Lord Gu, who was originally unemployed at home, has risen rapidly and has become the current leader of the Southwest Martial Arts World of the Six Gates. He is above ten thousand people and has great power. This has caused a huge sensation in the Great Chu Martial Arts World!"
"Why, Brother Qingyun hasn't heard about this?"
"Oh, I have heard of the famous Gu Hanlin, but I didn't expect that there is such a tortuous story behind him."
"Who says it's not true? I heard that after Lord Gu stabilized his Xiantian realm, he broke into the enemy's lair and killed all the enemies who had killed all his relatives in the past. His power was destroyed, and even the Demon Sect was implicated."
Zhou Weilong spoke eloquently on the side.
What he didn't notice was that
At this time, Yang Qingyun spoke less and his eyes were already lost in thought.
"The stars are falling. I remember that in my previous life, when the spiritual energy was revived on a large scale twenty years later, such a phenomenon also occurred. However, that time, the entire sky was filled with meteors for ten days and ten nights. The magnificent scene could not be compared with one or two falling stars. Perhaps, this is just a coincidence?"
"No! Impossible!"
“Before the revival of spiritual energy, the martial arts of this world tended to be materialistic. It was impossible for people to attain enlightenment overnight and directly reach the innate state. Because of the thin spiritual energy of the heaven and earth in the old era, it was simply not enough to support such a leap to heaven!”
"If you force yourself to gain enlightenment and advance through spiritual communication, the only outcome will be that you will be sucked dry in an instant!"
"Unless he got some great opportunity when the stars fell to the west, he would not have survived!"
"This kind of miracle of entering the innate realm in one step will only appear one after another after the spiritual energy has recovered on a large scale!"
Thinking about the miracles of those people who had entered the innate realm overnight after the revival of spiritual energy, I had seen them.
Yang Qingyun couldn't help feeling a little bitter.
In my previous life, no matter how hard I tried or how much sweat I shed, I could not cross that chasm.
But there are people who can easily reach the sky in one step while eating and drinking, and reach a state that they cannot reach even if they work hard for their whole life! In the ten years after the recovery of spiritual energy, he did not collapse because of this, which was the result of his strong enough Tao heart!
Fortunately, he quickly calmed down.
Living his life again, he believed that his future would not stop at Xiantian! Calm down and think carefully about the meaning behind this matter.
"I seem to have heard of the name Gu Hanlin in my previous life."
"It seems that when I was still working in the White Feather Sect's mine, the other party launched a huge rebellion in the Southern Wilderness Wulin, which was later suppressed by the Great Chu court. The White Feather Sect was affected, which led to my escape from the mine. It seems that there was also a factor."
"However, not long after the rebellion, Gu Hanlin was defeated and all nine clans of the Gu family were exterminated. Since then, this name has become a taboo and few people mention it anymore."
What Zhou Weilong said was not wrong, he did remember this person's name.
It's just that I don't know much.
After all, at that time, I was just an insignificant warrior in the martial arts world, barely struggling to survive at the bottom.
The fights between the big guys at the top and the existence above the clouds have little to do with me.
The distance is too far, just like a common citizen busy running around for three meals a day and the position changes of a top boss in the capital of a country, there will be no intersection.
By the time he reached the level of a first-rate master in practicing internal organs, more than ten years had passed, and everything about him had long been lost in the flow of time.
“Perhaps the revival of spiritual energy is not a sudden outbreak, but there are early signs.”
"Gu Hanlin was probably able to enter the innate realm in one step because of the opportunity given by the falling stars that night, which was a sign of the revival of spiritual energy."
"If that's the case, then I need to speed up!"
A faint light flickered deep in Yang Qingyun's pupils.
In my heart,
I suddenly felt that time was running out for me!
Zhou Weilong and Yang Qingyun talked all the way and had a great time with each other.
The team slowly arrived at the gate of Huangshi Town.
A yellowish dirt road extends from the wilderness and forest to a town.
On the bare dirt road, people and cars were coming and going, and the dust was filled in the air, dyeing the trees on both sides of the road into a gray area! At the end of the road, a dilapidated earthen brick wall, about 10 to 40 feet high, ran across the front. On the arch in the middle, there was an old plaque with the three characters "Huangshi Town" in iron painting and silver hooks.
On both sides of the archway entrance stood a number of shabby soldiers, leaning on sharp spears in their hands, collecting entrance fees from people queuing to enter the city.
In an open space farther away from the entrance and exit, there are far more people coming and going than those entering and leaving the city!
"Hmm? What's that?"
Looking at the market outside the city, Yang Qingyun asked.
"Oh, nothing, just a temporary market."
According to Zhou Weilong's explanation, farmers who come from rural areas to the market because they don't want to pay a city entry fee for nothing will choose to set up stalls here.
Many people in the city often come here to buy things because the things here are cheap.
Over time, a market of a certain scale was formed.
Of course, such a place naturally has a powerful force to maintain stability.
That is the famous Black Tiger Gang in the city! The Black Tiger Gang just sits here and collects money to maintain order. Of course, they also have to hand over a portion to the soldiers guarding the city, the officials in the city, etc., so that they turn a blind eye to it.
After all, the entrance fee to the city and the taxes paid for business are paid by the court, but the commission outside the city is everyone's own.
Therefore, this market was formed spontaneously and tacitly.
"I see!"
After hearing this, Yang Qingyun became interested.
The market where rural farmers gather in the huge Huangshi Town includes villagers from hundreds of villages in Huangshi Town who come to trade.
Isn’t there a thousand-year-old ginseng hidden in the small and inconspicuous Wangjia Village?
Who knows if some hunters in the countryside who ventured into the mountains found some good things? A 4,000-word chapter, two chapters in one.
