After all, Liang Yan had not been practicing Taoism for a long time. When he first saw the respectful look of these four people, he felt a little funny in his heart.
However, he immediately changed his mentality. At this moment, he just nodded slightly and asked his first question:
"where is this place?"
After the question was asked, the four kneeling old housekeepers raised their heads slightly and looked at each other with doubtful expressions. In the end, the housekeeper named Qi took the lead and answered: "Reporting to senior, here is
Cangya Mountain in the Kingdom of Wu."
"Wu State." Liang Yan was slightly startled, but he immediately realized that this Wu State was one of the Five Kingdoms in the South.
Yu Xuanji once told him at the beginning that although there are more than ten countries in the land of Nanchui, most of them are small places, and almost all of them are dependent on the five big countries of Xu, Wu, Yan, Yue, and Zhao.
Among these five major countries, each country has a large-scale sect with a transcendent status, each of which is the sect of its own country. For example, the Yixing Pavilion of Zhao State, the Yungang Sect of Yue State and the Miao Miao of Yan State
valley.
On the surface, these five major sects are in harmony with each other, and due to the remoteness of Nanchui, these five major sects have also formed an organization called the Five Nations Alliance. When something endangers the interests of the five nations, they will work together to help.
Straighten up.
As for the sect of the Wu Kingdom, Liang Yan vaguely remembers that it seems to be a sect called "Huang Jue Palace", and it seems to be a demonic sect, and the entire Wu Kingdom has become a place where the demonic path is extremely prosperous.
"It turns out that I did not return to the territory of Yan State, but came to the territory of Wu State." Liang Yan muttered to himself, then turned to the old man named Qi and asked:
"Is there a teleportation array leading to the Yue Kingdom in the Wu Kingdom?"
"Yes! Yes!" Steward Qi nodded hurriedly: "From now on, about two thousand miles northwest, there is a teleportation circle that can go directly to the territory of Yue Kingdom. It was one of several places jointly built by the Yungang Sect and Huang Jue Palace back then.
One of the teleportation circles, it is also the closest teleportation circle to here."
"Very good!" Liang Yan nodded with satisfaction after hearing this.
Although he has successfully established the foundation now, he still has nothing to rely on in Wu State, let alone convenient resources. In contrast, it is more advantageous to return to the sect as soon as possible and use the sect's resources to practice. As for Wu,
Since the two countries are far apart, it is natural to save time by teleporting the magic circle.
"senior."
Just as he was thinking secretly in his mind, he suddenly heard someone in the crowd call out softly. Liang Yan turned around and saw that the person who made the call was a dark-faced young man wearing a linen gown.
"What's the matter?" Liang Yan asked calmly.
"Forgive me for being presumptuous, but if you want to use the teleportation circle in the northwest, our Zhang family can help!"
"Oh?" Liang Yan showed a hint of interest. He looked at the black-faced boy and didn't say much. He was obviously waiting for his next words.
The black-faced young man saluted Liang Yan gently and said: "Senior, you may not know something. The teleportation circle is in Zhiyuan City controlled by Huang Jue Palace, and not everyone can use it. It must be issued by Huang Jue Palace.
Only with relevant certificates can the release be released.”
"Is there such a thing?" Liang Yan frowned slightly.
"Everything that this junior said is true, absolutely no lies! This junior, Zhang Zhong, is the direct son of the Zhang family, one of the four major Qi refining families in Cangya Mountain. My father had contacts with Huang Jue Palace back then, and he happened to get a certificate.
, maybe I can help senior."
As soon as he said this, the three housekeepers in front, especially the housekeeper named Qi, all looked frightened. Only one of them shouted: "Senior, you must not listen to this man's nonsense. The transmission requires proof of this."
Although it is true, the Zhang family has long been in decline, so how can they still have a chance to obtain the certificate from Huang Jue Palace?"
"Hey, is it true or false? As long as senior follows me to the house, won't everything be clear?" Zhang Zhong looked at the three old men in front of him, with a sneer on his face and said: "I, Zhang Zhong, just eat.
No matter how ambitious a leopard is, he would not dare to deceive a senior foundation builder. I think you are making irresponsible remarks here to deliberately hinder the senior's schedule?"
The housekeepers of the Qi, Chu, and Xu families were slightly suffocated when they heard this, and they couldn't find anything to say to refute.
As Zhang Zhong said just now, none of these three families want Liang Yan to agree to go to the Zhang family. If the Zhang family really has any evidence, wouldn't it be like selling a favor to the foundation-building monk in front of him? If he was happy and agreed to take action
If we help deal with the other three families, won’t these three families suffer?
Although Liang Yan was young, he had a delicate mind. At this moment, he saw the secret fighting between these people, but he just smiled slightly and said: "Zhang Zhong, you and I are not relatives, and I didn't know in advance that you had this certificate of transmission.
, why did you suddenly tell me?"
After hearing this, Zhang Chong's face became solemn, he bowed respectfully to Liang Yan, lowered his head and said:
"Senior and I are obviously kind, so how can we not be related to each other?"
"Oh? What favor do I have with you?" Liang Yan asked doubtfully.
"Before the senior arrived, I had a fight with Qi Xiu, the legitimate son of the Qi family. His cultivation level was higher than mine. When I was about to lose to this person, it was the vision that landed here that senior hit him.
Retreat and save your next life."
Zhang Zhong raised his head at this time, looked at Liang Yan sincerely and said, "Zhang Zhong's move is really to repay his kindness!"
"That's it!" Liang Yan nodded somewhat suddenly, with a hint of approval on his face and said: "It turns out that you are a person who knows how to repay kindness. Anyway, I will follow you to the Zhang Mansion!"
After hearing this, Zhang Chong's face showed a hint of joy, and he immediately prostrated himself again and said respectfully to Liang Yan: "Welcome to you, senior!"
"No need to be polite!"
Liang Yan waved his hand and ignored the gloomy faces of the other three housekeepers, and followed Zhang Zhong and Zhang Yuan all the way down the mountain road.
After half a stick of incense, I was in a vermilion courtyard in the forest of Cangya Mountain.
A middle-aged man in a blue robe was striding out of the main hall, and behind him were five or six old men over fifty, who seemed to be the elders of the Zhang family.
"Hahaha! It turns out that he is Quanzi's savior. Senior is really a distinguished guest of my Zhang family!"
The middle-aged man in blue robe had a bright smile. As soon as he went out, he bowed deeply to Liang Yan who was standing at the door. At the same time, he quickly stepped forward and said respectfully to Liang Yan: "Senior Liang's visit really makes my family happy.
Shenghui, please move to the inner hall and let us show our friendship as landlords!"
"You don't have to be so polite." Liang Yan smiled slightly and said, "You are the current head of the Zhang family, Zhang Dingtian?"
After hearing this, the middle-aged man in blue robe lowered his eyebrows and said, "That's right! I'll take Zhang Dingtian as the head of the Zhang family."
"Haha, the head of the Zhang family is indeed extraordinary!"
Liang Yan's eyes flashed as he spoke, and an unpredictable smile appeared on his face.
