98. There are many babies in Chang'an (the eighth month)
Because practitioners of the demonic path incorporate demon blood into their practice, they can easily lose control of their moods and be dominated by negative emotions. They may even have a drastic change in temperament, affecting their daily behavior.
Even if the demon blood for sacrifice comes from noble and benevolent animals such as dragons, phoenixes, unicorns, and zhizhi, demon practitioners will still tend to be bloodthirsty, cruel, and cruel.
In many places, it is customary to regard people in the devil's path as evil sects, and this is the reason.
Based on Zhang Dongyun's thinking habits in Blue Star in his previous life, he guessed that this might be a problem such as genetic mutation or rejection...
Fusion and training of one kind of demon blood is already so dangerous and can easily cause the practitioner to lose control, let alone two kinds?
Historically, there have been attempts to integrate and practice various types of demon blood, but the result would only be that at a low level, one would lose control and go crazy, completely losing one's humanity.
Some people even self-destruct.
Throughout the ages, there have been very few demon practitioners who can possess both demonic bloods.
There are only a handful of people who can fuse two kinds of demon blood and practice to a very advanced level.
Ao Kong, the "Ape Dragon King", is the youngest one so far.
Although he is young, his strength has already surpassed those of his predecessors. He transformed into a demon ape, moved mountains and seas, and transformed into a celestial dragon. He had endless transformations. He also fused two kinds of demon blood to create his own ape dragon, which was the leader of two families.
The change became famous all over the world.
However, since the Xianji Incident thirty years ago, he has disappeared and there is little news.
At this moment, I suddenly heard that a mountain-moving demon ape was causing trouble in Yechuan County, and Zhang Dongyun immediately thought of him.
When Shen Herong heard the news, he had the same thought.
"Right now, there are only rumors about the Mountain-Moving Demonic Ape, and there is no news about Huan Tianlong or the Ape Dragon." Zhang Dongyun said slowly.
Shen Herong thought thoughtfully: "I wonder if it is Brother Eleven. If it is really him, then he should be in trouble. His current strength is limited, otherwise Dongtang would have been turned upside down by him."
Zhang Dongyun asked: "What happened back then, what role do you think he was?"
In the memory of "Evil Emperor" Ming Tonghui, it is impossible to determine whether the traitor in the Xianji Incident included Ao Kong.
"Ask yourself, I think Brother Eleven is not a traitor."
Shen Herong said softly: "But based on what I know so far, I'm not sure."
Her answer came from the bottom of her heart and was not what Zhang Dongyun expected.
Just listening to the name she calls Ao Kong, you can see that emotionally she is willing to believe in Ao Kong.
In the past, Ao Kong, the "Ape Dragon King", was bold and arrogant, but he could be called a straightforward person when getting along with his brothers and sisters.
However, it’s still the same sentence.
Back then, they also trusted Yang Li...
Therefore, although emotionally I am inclined to believe Ao Kong, intellectually, Shen Herong still needs further verification.
She raised her hand and looked at Zhang Dongyun: "Brother, please allow me to go to Yechuan County."
"It's just rumors right now, it may not be him." Zhang Dongyun said calmly.
"So, little sister can go alone, brother, don't bother running around."
Shen and Rong Yan said: "When there is news, the younger sister will send a message to the elder brother as soon as possible."
She suddenly remembered something and took out the azure orb just now.
"This blue sky eye is suitable for use. Big brother can understand the situation immediately."
Shen Herong smiled and said, "Just change it a little bit."
The petite girl is holding a finger, gently writing and outlining on the surface of the azure orb.
After a moment, the azure light on the orb flashed, and then gradually turned into pure blue under Zhang Dongyun's gaze.
Next, Shen Herong tapped his finger, and a faint light suddenly flew out of the pure blue orb.
The brilliance was as smooth as water. After flying out of the orb, it condensed in mid-air in the hall, and finally seemed to form a round mirror.
The mirror surface is slightly rippling like lake water, with shimmering waves.
Zhang Dongyun looked around and saw that the scene reflected on the mirror was exactly the same as what he had seen through the blue sky eye.
"If big brother needs something, you can also contact little sister here."
Shen Herong smiled.
Her voice seemed to have two overlapping strands.
One originated from herself, and the other came from the mirror. It was obvious that the sound came from the pure blue orb and was then transmitted through the mirror.
"People in the city, you pick something suitable and take it with you on the road."
Zhang Dongyun said.
"Wu Yun is the most capable, but he has to stay and save his elder brother's worries. Xu Xingzhi thought of Wu Yun's subordinates to show their ambitions. My younger sister is happy to see the success, so it's not good to delay him."
The girl smiled and said, "Let the third uncle of the Chen family take the younger sister and Chaoyan's two children."
"It's up to you, be careful on the road." Zhang Dongyun waved his hand.
Shen Herong straightened her expression: "My little sister is gone, brother, please take care of yourself."
She left the hall and did not take the initiative to find Chen Jiezhi.
After a while, Chen Jiezhi followed Mr. Wu Yun's order and took the initiative to pick up her and Chen Chaoyan.
"Yechuan County, there is news about some of our tribesmen. Mr. Wu Yun has specially allowed me to leave the city to inquire about the situation. If it is true, I can take them back to Chang'an."
Chen Jiezhi said: "Mr. Wu Yun has ordered you two to take you two out for training. Please be sure not to move around on the way."
"Yes, Third Uncle." Chen Chaoyan smiled brightly, and "Ming Yixue" who was half a head shorter than her next to her was equally happy: "Yes, Third Uncle Chen."
The three of them packed up their gear, picked up three thunder dragon colts, and then left the city and headed south, heading straight to Yechuan County, which was thousands of miles away.
In the Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun looked at the mirror light and water waves in front of him, reflecting the scene Shen Herong saw with the orb, and nodded with satisfaction.
There was nothing going on right now, so he didn't need to keep an eye on it.
Zhang focused his attention on the task list of his system.
[Construction Task 4.1 - Please initially establish your city-in-city city and establish preliminary business circulation]
Zhang Dongyun nodded slightly.
As the population increases, there is currently preliminary trade in the city, but it is scattered and not large-scale, and it relies heavily on Qinzhou Prefecture outside the mountain.
At present, the scale of Invincible City is getting larger and larger, and the overall situation is becoming more and more stable. We can consider developing the people's livelihood economy on a larger scale.
The biggest drawback right now is the location.
The barren mountains and ridges are not major transportation routes. If you want to develop commerce, there are inherent shortcomings.
But as long as the security of the transaction is ensured and a large number of exclusive goods are rare elsewhere, there is still a future.
To put it bluntly, if normal business cannot be scaled up, then it will first become the largest black market in the Eastern Tang Dynasty...
"It shouldn't be that miserable, right?"
Zhang Dongyun said to himself.
He first established the location of the market in the inner city.
One is the East Market and the other is the West Market.
The East Market is prepared as a trading place for practitioners.
The West Market is prepared to be a trading place for mortals.
In the future, when the population further grows and the residential areas become more dispersed, we can try to build scattered small markets near residential buildings, led by the West Market.
For now, let’s decide on the east and west markets.
As the outer city continues to expand in the future, the area will become wider and wider, and the east and west cities of the inner city will be upgraded and developed towards high-end development.
Between the city walls, a new lower-level market will be developed in due course.
Now, the first thing to do is to establish the reputation of the East and West cities.
Among them, Dongshi is used for practitioners and ranks higher.
Over there in the West Market, it is difficult for ordinary people to travel long distances.
The West Market can be used only by city dwellers for the time being, slowly becoming famous, and allowing people from nearby businesses and travelers to come to trade and operate.
In the inner city of Chang'an, golden light flashed on both sides of the east and west sides, and then blocks of buildings fell to the ground.
The people in the city were talking a lot, and Xu Xingzhi, Guo Zi and others were all very curious.
"Wu Qiong, is in charge of the West Market."
In the hall, Mr. Wu Yun gave casual orders.
Wu Qiong, the head of the Pili Sect, who had just arrived in Chang'an City from Tongzhou Prefecture, quickly accepted the order: "I must be careful."
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Previously, I was busy making connections and looking for sales of turquoise crystals.
After the Dahe Longmen business is settled, he will sit in Tongzhou and be responsible for contacting the transfer.
Several months passed and I finally had time to return to Chang'an.
The Hanshan Sect and the Chen family have already established a firm foothold in the city, and have even received guidance from Mr. Wu Yun, imparting profound knowledge.
In recent days, the Pili Sect has gradually become marginalized in Chang'an City, which makes Wufen deeply uneasy.
Now that Mr. Wu Yun has entrusted the operation and management of West Market to him, Wu Qiong's heart immediately fell.
The East Market is for practitioners. Wu Qiong knows that his current cultivation strength is low, and the Pili Sect is not outstanding in this aspect. If the East Market is left to them, problems will easily arise.
The West Market, which is used for ordinary people, is suitable for them to perform, and it is also rich in oil and water. Even if they are honest and not corrupt, they can still live a prosperous life.
However, the premise for all this is that the Perak Sect must run the Western Market properly.
At present, some commerce in Chang'an City mainly relies on Qinzhou Prefecture.
That's where the Hanshan Sect is.
But if you want to expand your business and make the market prosperous, the Pili Sect, who was born in Tongzhou Prefecture, also has its own advantages.
As an important transportation place, Tongzhou Prefecture has always been prosperous in commerce, and the Perak Sect has its own connections.
How to attract merchants there to come to Chang'an is the next question that Infinity needs to consider.
To a certain extent, he wants to poach his family in Tongzhou...
Not to mention the difficulty, it takes a lot of time.
Distant water cannot quench the near thirst. If you want to achieve quick results, you still cannot relax in Qinzhou.
Cooperating with the Hanshan Sect may benefit both sides, but the initiative must be in his own hands... Wu Qiong already had a calculation in his mind.
Mr. Wu Yun, at this time, looked at Xu Xingzhi:
"Let's go, take charge of Dongshi."
The Confucian scholar in Tsing Yi took a deep breath and bowed: "Student understands."
He had just finished his job as a teacher and became Mr. Wuyun's right-hand man. It was time to show off his ambitions.
Managing the city and dealing with merchants seems not to be normal government affairs, but it is undoubtedly very demanding.
Xu Xingzhi himself also knew that he would face Mr. Wu Yun's assessment next. If he failed, he would have to go back and continue teaching.
"You can let the news out about my reincarnation pill."
Mr. Wuyun's tone was understated, as if he was talking about a trivial matter casually, insignificant.
But everyone in the hall, including Xu Xingzhi, was breathing slightly quickly.
The pill of reincarnation, called reincarnation, governs life and death, and can almost revive the dead, with flesh and bones.
Far away, Hui Tianyu, Cao Feng and others, and recently Chen Jiezhi and others from before, took the elixir and recovered quickly from even serious injuries.
Such a miraculous medicine is coveted by countless people.
