Chapter 668: One more thing is worse than one less thing
After going down the mountain, the two walked eastwards without any speed.
"Brother Yin, how many journeys have we walked, how long will it take?" Li Xiao asked.
"It should...it's soon." Yin Zheng replied seriously.
When passing by a town, Li Xiao found a bookstore to buy a geometric map. Liangjing was located in the northeast of Qingshui Kingdom, and they only walked less than one-third of the journey. Li Xiao roughly estimated that if he continued at this speed, it would take at least one and a half months to reach Liangjing.
If you encounter something on the road, two months may not be enough.
Such a long time is definitely enough for Qingshui Country to complete a large layout, and then Shuiling Mountain will be in dire straits.
"Brother Yin, have you ever thought that once the news of your departure is exposed, Qingshui Congress will take advantage of the situation?" Li Xiao asked.
When Yin Zheng heard this question, he frowned. He had never thought about this question. If Qingshui Kingdom really took advantage of the situation, wouldn’t Shuiling Mountain be dangerous?
Yin Zheng looked back at the direction he saw, full of worry and longing.
Li Xiao patted Yin Zheng on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I have a way to make that emperor dare not act rashly." Li Xiao said with a smile.
Yin Zheng is now increasingly feeling that people's hearts are complicated, and it is a very nerve-wracking thing to really deal with the outside world.
The closest mountain gate to Shuiling Mountain is Junyao Sect. Now Yin Zheng and Junyao Sect have formed a big and small incense relationship. Moreover, Junyao Sect also belongs to the far-reaching land of the Emperor of Heaven. I believe Junyao Sect will not easily attack Shuiling Mountain.
"Hey, Brother Li, why do you, a warrior, bring a qi-raising gourd?" Yin Zheng suddenly asked when he thought of this.
"Well... can't a warrior use the Qi-raising gourd?" Li Xiao asked back.
"It's not impossible. It's just that the Qi-raising gourd helps the warriors is far less helpful than the cultivators. Besides, the warriors emphasize moving forward. If they have external objects as their dependence, they will be lucky when facing the enemy, which will affect the heart of Taoism." Yin Zheng said.
Li Xiao nodded. This Qi-raising gourd was left by his ancestors. If the ancestors can use it, he can naturally use it too.
As for the truth about the truth or not, Li Xiao does not have much insight at the moment. However, Li Xiao, who has died once, thinks that only living is the bottom line.
"First of all, you have to live." Li Xiao said.
Yin Zheng nodded thoughtfully.
Along the way, Yin Zheng didn't say much, but compared to the fact that he didn't say a word before going to Junyao Mountain, he is still much better now.
After passing through the lecture hall at Junyao Mountain, Yin Zheng's seventh realm foundation was obviously more stable. Cultivating the mind and practicing is not just about fighting, killing, or meditating in seclusion.
Yin Zheng’s Haoran realm was not achieved through fighting, killing and practicing.
A week later, the two of them saw many things and heard many legends on the way, but they did not delay their trip.
In front of the two was a huge lake with endless sight, and a port not far away was a port. There were several large ferry boats parked in the port. The size of the big ship was no less than the large cruise ship on the Blue Star, or even larger.
"This is the Stargazing Lake. Since there is a largest academy in Qingshui Kingdom in the lake, no warriors and monks are allowed to fly on this lake to control their energy." Yin Zheng said.
"Are you also qualified to give a lecture in that academy?" Li Xiao asked curiously.
"I don't know." Yin Zheng replied.
Yin Zheng went to the port and bought two boat tickets, and they boarded the largest ship.
A maid led the two to the cabin and took them into a small room, which was divided into the lower pavilion of the mountain.
"Two young men, if you have any need, you can summon me at any time." After saying goodbye, the maid gently closed the door and left.
"Brother Li, I'm going to make an ordinary ticket, I'm going to let you down." Yin Zheng sat down and said to Li Xiao.
"Haha, I've been eating and drinking all the way, all the money I paid for, Brother Yin. If I hadn't gained from Brother Yin, I wouldn't have been able to board this big ship." Li Xiao said with a laugh.
Yin Zheng took out two wine gourds, handed them to Li Xiao, and said, "The ship may have to walk for seven or eight days before it can get out of the Starwatching Lake. It just happened to be the night of the full moon. It is said that this Starwatching Lake can see a wonder of Qingshui Kingdom-Shuiyue Cave Heaven."
"I saw the flag on the mast with the word Cao. Does this ship belong to the Caoyun Chamber of Commerce?" Li Xiao asked.
"The Caoyun Chamber of Commerce is the largest chamber of commerce in Qingshui Kingdom. The three routes of water, land and air belong to their family's most post roads." Yin Zheng explained.
Li Xiao nodded and smiled, "It's a bit meaningful."
"On this star-gazing lake, only the Caoyun Chamber of Commerce can take boats, so what you see is not only the ships, but even the ports belong to Caoyun." Yin Zheng continued.
"Then Cao Yun should be very rich. If he robs him, wouldn't he have made a fortune?" Li Xiao asked.
"Haha! Brother Li has a wonderful idea and drink." Yin Zheng picked up the wine gourd.
Along the way, Yin Zheng seemed to fall in love with drinking, and his alcohol tolerance increased day by day.
"Caoyun Chamber of Commerce is rich enough to rival a country." Yin Zheng said.
After drinking, Yin Zheng started to talk more and even told Li Xiao about the embarrassing things that happened when he was practicing on the mountain in the past.
It was not until the evening that Li Xiao felt the ship left the port and began sailing. There was also bustling noise outside.
"Brother Yin, are you going out to have a look?" Li Xiao asked with a smile.
"Let's go." Yin Zheng immediately stood up.
The middle of the cabin is very lively. In the middle of the huge cabin, there are opera singers, storytellers, and dancing.
The Caoyun Chamber of Commerce does know how to operate, even in cheap warehouses, provide customers with these entertainment activities, making the passengers less boring on the road.
"Brother Yin, are the activities more exciting on the two floors above?" Li Xiao asked.
"It should be." Yin Zheng replied.
"Go up and take a look?" Li Xiao asked again.
"You can't go beyond the rules of the ship. The above is the ground font size and the above is the sky font size. They are all VIPs." Yin Zheng said.
Li Xiao smiled slightly and said, "If the manager of this ship knows that we are both warriors from Haoran Realm, then we should not provide us with two rooms with a size of heaven for free?"
Yin Zheng smiled and shook his head, saying, "It is possible that the saint is coming. We, the seventh level warriors, may not be treated so well in Cao Yun."
Li Xiao and the other two were in the dancing area, found two empty seats and sat down, drinking while chatting without saying a word.
"Hey, Brother Yin, have you heard of Li Qiansha?" Li Xiao asked.
"I have read in ancient books in the Shanshang Bookstore. It is said to be a demon king at the eleventh level. Later, countless immortals were dispatched in the entire bottleneck world to kill the demon king Li Qiansha. However, the bottleneck world also paid a heavy price for it." Yin Zheng said.
"Can anyone live ten thousand years?" Li Xiao asked again.
"How lonely is it to live for ten thousand years?" Yin Zheng smiled faintly.
The two were chatting, and suddenly a few people stood beside their tables, staring at them fiercely.
The atmosphere was a little wrong. Li Xiao turned around and looked at it. All the people on the tables around him got up and walked away, and the area became much quieter.
"Hey, boy, you're up." One of the swordsmen with a big beard and a big knife on his waist raised their chins at the two of them.
"What's wrong?" Li Xiao asked curiously.
"My elder brother wants to watch the dance here, you can move somewhere." The black-faced swordsman said angrily.
Li Xiaoke doesn’t plan to get up, why do you want to drive us away as soon as you come?
"Why do we have to give up our seats as soon as you come?" Li Xiao asked.
"How about we have so many people? Are you satisfied?" said the black-faced swordsman with a fierce look.
There are many people? When did Li Xiao be afraid of having too many people?
Opposite Li Xiao, another person grabbed Yin Zheng's shoulder, picked him up, and swung him back. Yin Zheng was thrown several meters away by the short swordsman, and even almost threw Yin Zheng over the ground.
"This may be the highest moment in your life." Li Xiao smiled at the short swordsman.
"What a mess, get up quickly, I'm impatient." The black-faced swordsman grabbed Li Xiao's shoulder and pulled Li Xiao up with one hand. Li Xiao was also pushed out by that man.
Yin Zheng patted Li Xiao on the shoulder and smiled at Li Xiao, "Brother Li, let's just change the place, there is no need to be as knowledgeable as them."
"Okay." Li Xiao nodded. He also felt that there was no need to have a conflict on this ship. He was petty with a group of minions. It was meaningless. It would be better to have less trouble than more trouble.
