Chapter 160: After this battle, I will (for the book friend Polar Bear 2018 Leader 3/5)
Monsters are not puppets, they also need to rest.
The monsters that attacked Zhenyue Immortal City had traveled a long distance and had not had a good rest for several days.
The reason why they launched an attack on Fairy City in this situation was not only because the high-level monsters wanted to test the defense strength of Fairy City through this attack, but also because they wanted to kill some low-level monsters to reduce the food burden of the beasts.
.
High-level monsters rely on their strength and the "Beast King's Horn" to deter and restrain the herbivorous monsters and carnivorous monsters from killing each other, but they cannot stop the hungry monsters from killing each other.
A "beast tide" often takes several years to completely end. Therefore, for high-level monsters, how to control the scale of the "beast tide" and prevent the beasts from killing each other due to lack of food is also a very important task.
Things that test wisdom.
Therefore, after the "beast tide" temporarily retreated, Zhou Yang and other survivors on the top of the city also began to clean up the battlefield and dispose of their spoils.
It was also at this time that Zhou Yang discovered that out of the fifteen members of his team, there were actually five people who survived. He didn't know how these five people survived.
Because of the fierce battle that lasted for one or two hours, it stands to reason that these people's mana should have been exhausted long ago, and the intensity of the previous attack should not have been withstood by the monks during the Qi training period if they were still on the top of the city.
That's it.
However, although he had some doubts in his heart, he did not say anything more. No matter how these people survived, it was not his turn to investigate, as long as these people did not move his trophies.
After this battle, Zhou Yang killed four third-level monsters by himself, including a third-level middle-grade monster "Sword-billed Crane", and even more second-order high-grade monsters.
Because there were too many monsters killed, and these monsters were generally very large in size, Zhou Yang just removed the parts of the third-level monsters that could be used to refine weapons and elixirs, took out the monster blood, and put the rest in it.
Only some of the best parts of the animal meat were taken, and then the remaining animal meat and bones were sold at low prices to the merchants who came to buy them after hearing the news.
Most of the merchants who came to purchase the corpses of monsters had powerful backgrounds.
They have already prepared a large number of warehouses in the city. In the warehouses, there are dedicated people to process and classify the corpses of monsters brought back, and then the beast meat will be refined by alchemists on the spot into "Bi Gu Dan", "Jing Yuan Dan" and the like.
of satiety pills, or preserve the carcasses of some rare monsters, waiting for the "beast tide" to dissipate later, and then transport them back to the Immortal Cultivation World of Liuyun Continent for sale and processing.
At this time, a large number of demonic beasts were killed, and the value of demonic beast materials plummeted. The price of the demonic beast meat that Zhou Yang sold to these merchants was less than half of the normal price, but these profiteers made a lot of money.
However, he was not at a loss. By selling the corpses of monsters that he could not take away or use, he earned another three to four thousand low-grade spiritual stones. If he included the refining materials that he had collected,
From this battle alone, he gained nearly tens of thousands of spiritual stones as a trophy.
With such a fast rate of earning spirit stones, it is no wonder that people like Dong Jianping knew that the "beast tide" was dangerous, but still chose to stay in Zhenyue Immortal City to help defend the city.
Man dies for money, and bird dies for food. This is the eternal truth.
It's just different from Zhou Yang's pure profit. Although Dong Jianping killed more monsters than him, the price he paid was also very heavy.
After this battle, not only the Taoist companions who had followed him for decades fell into the mouth of the monster, but also the descendants of the monks he had given birth to and raised over the years also lost three people. Now only the two who were
The young men and women rescued by Zhou Yang are still alive.
Zhou Yang did not bother the Dong family and his son to clean up the battlefield. After handling his trophies, he sat cross-legged on the ground and meditated to recover his mana, while waiting for the next order from his immediate superior, Jia Yunzhen.
And his five surviving men, after packing up the remains and relics of the dead monks and storing them on the city wall, started meditating behind him.
These people also made a lot of money this time. Zhou Yang didn't take any of the monsters killed by the monks who had fallen in the Qi training period. They all shared them. This directly caused their net worth to double or triple. It can be said that
Make a lot of money.
"May I have your name?"
On the top of the city, Zhou Yang was meditating to recover his magic power, when a strong and deep voice suddenly reached his ears.
He opened his eyes and saw that Jia Yunzhen had arrived in front of him at some point, looking at him with an indifferent expression.
Seeing this, he quickly stood up, bowed his hands respectfully and said, "Junior Zhou Yang, I have met Senior Jia."
"That sword strike before was very good. Was it the magical power contained in the technique you practiced?"
Jia Yunzhen looked at Zhou Yang and asked, as if he was completely unaware of how taboo his question was.
But this is the privilege of high-level monks!
It can be said that it is taboo for monks of the same level to inquire about each other's magical powers and can easily offend others. However, when high-level monks ask questions about lower-level monks, there is no such problem.
Therefore, Zhou Yang just frowned, and quickly calmed down the dissatisfaction in his heart and replied: "Senior has a keen eye, that is indeed the sword energy magical power that comes with the martial arts practiced by this junior!"
"That's such a shame!"
Jia Yunzhen's eyes flashed with regret, and he sighed with regret.
With his knowledge and understanding of swordsmanship, he can certainly see how extraordinary Zhou Yang's "Qianyang Heavenly Sword" is. If he can learn this magical sword energy, it can definitely become another trump card for him.
However, since this sword energy magical power is attached to the skill, he has no idea at all. The main skill of the immortal cultivator can be changed, but he cannot practice two major skills at the same time, otherwise it is easy to go wrong and become obsessed.
And Jia Yunzhen's major in martial arts is not weak in magical powers. Naturally, he will not switch to another martial arts just for the sake of one magical power.
After sighing, he looked at Zhou Yang and nodded: "You have performed very well this time. According to the rules set by the city lord, you can get a two-month rest period. During the rest period, unless the city wall falls,
, otherwise you don’t have to go to the city to join the battle. Of course, if you want to kill demons voluntarily, no one will stop you!"
After saying that, he didn't even look at Zhou Yang's face and left with his sword.
call!
Zhou Yang looked at the direction in which Jia Yunzhen was leaving and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. To be honest, even in front of Cao Wenjin, an ancestor of Jindan, he had never been so nervous as in front of Jia Yunzhen.
The reason is not difficult to understand. As the guardian of Huangshamen, Cao Wenjin has that status. If he doesn't follow the rules and is unreasonable, Zhou Yang has nothing to do, and it doesn't matter whether he is nervous or not.
But Jia Yun is really different. Jia Yun is really a casual cultivator, and the world of immortal cultivation in Liuyunzhou is a foreign country.
Zhou Yang is a stranger wandering here. Faced with a high-level casual cultivator like Jia Yunzhen, who is ruthless and fierce, he is under great pressure. He is afraid that if he says the wrong thing and angers the other party, he will be killed.
disaster.
This is no joke. In the current war to resist the "tide of beasts", as a monk in the Zifu period who controls Zhou Yang and the others, if Jia Yunzhen really wants to punish him, there are countless ways to do it, and there is no need to take action himself.
"If you can in the future, it's better to stay away from this murderous star. Who knows if the blood evil aura in his body may have affected his character to the point of becoming demonic!"
Zhou Yang cursed secretly in his heart, he was extremely afraid of Jia Yunzhen.
This kind of immortal monk who is not a demonic monk, but whose character and methods are more ruthless and fierce than the demonic monks, is the real difficulty to offend. Zhou Yang definitely does not want to provoke such a person, not at all.
However, what Jia Yunzhen said before leaving still made him feel a little better. If he could rest for two or two months, he could do a lot of things during this time.
Thinking of this, he immediately walked over to Dong Jianping over there.
"They all voluntarily stayed to join me in the war. I didn't force them!"
In a private room of a restaurant in Zhenyue Immortal City, Zhou Yang and Dong Jianping were sitting across the table from each other. On the table was a table of delicious dishes cooked with third-order monster meat, and the wine was also brewed with various second-order spiritual fruits.
Excellent spiritual wine.
Dong Jianping was drinking wine at this time, while looking at Zhou Yang with a sad expression and said: "I don't know whether Fellow Taoist Zhou is from a sect or a family, but I know that Fellow Taoist is definitely not a casual cultivator."
"I, Dong Jianping, have been practicing all my life. Every piece of spiritual stone has been earned with my own hands. From the first day of my practice, no one has taught me how to practice. I am able to practice to this level except for God's gift."
Except for giving me the middle-grade spiritual root, I got it with every drop of my own blood and sweat!"
"My Taoist companion is also a casual cultivator. Like me, she knows how difficult it is to be a casual cultivator. My children with spiritual roots have also been influenced by us since childhood. They dare to take risks and fight hard. They hope to become like me through their own efforts.
Foundation-building monk!"
"Before this beast tide, I told them that after surviving this beast tide, I will take them back to the rear to establish a family. At that time, the younger monks of our Dong family will not be like us. In order to save a few dollars
If you buy spiritual stones from spiritual rice, you can only go out and hunt monsters!"
"They all support my decision and are willing to stay here with me to resist the beast tide. They say they will work with me to contribute to the establishment of the Dong family!"
"I say this because I want to tell fellow Taoist Zhou that I, Dong Jianping, am not a cold-blooded and heartless person who uses the lives of his descendants to earn spiritual stones for myself!"
Dong Jianping looked at Zhou Yang with red eyes, slowly picked up the empty wine glass in front of Zhou Yang, filled him with a glass of wine, then picked up the wine glass with both hands and handed it to him.
"Zhou understands what Fellow Taoist Dong means, and I also ask Brother Dong to express my condolences and accept the change!"
Zhou Yang nodded solemnly, reached out to take the wine glass in front of him, raised his head and drank it down in one gulp.
Seeing this, Dong Jianping couldn't help but slap the table and cheered: "Okay, since Brother Zhou drank this glass of wine, it means that you really treat Dong as a friend. Although Dong is a casual cultivator, he never treats his friends."
Stingy, if Brother Zhou needs Dong’s help in the future, just say it!”
"I have something to ask Brother Dong!"
Zhou Yang nodded, as if he had expressed his thoughts.
It turned out that after today's battle at the top of the city, he had realized the problem of his lack of conventional attack methods, so he wanted to ask Dong Jianping about the magic weapons and talisman market conditions in Zhenyuexian City to see if he could purchase some better attack methods.
Arm yourself with weapons and buy some high-end talismans to defend yourself.
"Brother Zhou, you have asked the right person. Dong has lived in Zhenyue Immortal City for decades and knows the situation of each store very clearly. If you want to buy magic weapons, I recommend you to go to [Shen Weapon Shop].
[Kunwu Pavilion] These two shops, at least in this town of Yuexian City, their shops have the most sophisticated magical instruments."
"As for the spiritual talisman, I suggest you not to buy it. Under the current circumstances, the price of the spiritual talisman is at least half or even twice as expensive as usual. Besides, you already have a third-level high-grade defensive magic weapon, not a fourth-level defensive magic talisman. Right
It’s of no great use to you, and the current price of the fourth-level spiritual talisman in the city is, tsk tsk tsk!”
When Dong Jianping finished speaking, he couldn't help but shook his head, apparently feeling that there was no need to say more.
Zhou Yang is also someone who can listen to advice. When Dong Jianping said this, he remembered his own methods, and immediately nodded obediently and said: "Then Zhou will listen to Brother Dong and go to those two places to see the magical artifacts first."
"There's no rush. You and I should eat and drink first. Then Dong will take Brother Zhou there in person, so that the shopkeeper won't bully you and try to make you a stranger!"
After eating and drinking like this for more than an hour, Zhou Yang and the others left the restaurant, and then, led by Dong Jianping, they went to the two shops to buy magical weapons.
