Tie Long and Tie Hu looked at each other and shook their heads.
Fang Lexian seemed to have some realization: "Did a fairy overlord just manifest a vision?"
"Brother, let me go and see where the Supervisory Palace is?"
"Just go forward and you will naturally know where the Supervisory Palace is. I will wait for you with them at the Treasure Pavilion."
Tie Tang stopped thinking about it, stepped forward, and moved forward as fast as possible.
The jade towers and jade buildings seen along the way are getting higher and higher, the vitality of heaven and earth is everywhere, and the earth under your feet is like a circling avenue. With every step, new insights come to your mind.
"Is the Holy City so powerful?" Tie Tang was secretly surprised.
He did nothing, just ran along the road leading to the sky, but he seemed to have fallen into an epiphany, with endless insights flooding into his heart all the time.
This familiar feeling....
Apparently it made him think that he had swallowed another Dragon Mark Daoyun.
It won’t take long.
Tie Tang has completely entered the real holy capital. The auras of the passers-by are so strong that there are hardly many weak people. He can't even see many ordinary people who are not familiar with witchcraft.
"Having lived in the Holy City for a long time, even if you have never practiced, you will be infiltrated by the pure vitality of heaven and earth here. Coupled with the aura of the immortal overlords themselves, various immortal charms and Taoist charms are intertwined with each other. It is simply the ultimate in cultivation.
Treasure land.
If you can settle here for a long time, even a pig can become a great witch of the soul. Why would there be any need to look for adventures?
The Holy City is an adventure, a first-class cave paradise!"
While observing Chaoge's customs and customs, Tie Tang rushed towards the Supervisory Hall.
The Supervisory Hall is not difficult to find, and he already understands what Fang Lexian means.
In the sky directly in front of this Tongtian Avenue, there is a suspended palace towering.
This celestial palace is mostly obscured by clouds and fog, and its specific appearance cannot be clearly seen. The exposed lower part is entirely made of purple jade, with hanging jewels and dragons and dancing phoenixes, emitting a shimmering light all the time.
In the middle and upper part of the Tiangong, in the area that was originally obscured by clouds and fog, there is a simple yellow wooden plaque hanging with the four characters "Yin Shang Jade Palace" written on it.
The Jade Palace of the Yin Shang Dynasty was where the Emperor of the People lived, and there was a series of palaces below, where was the Purple Wall of the Great Shang, and where many ministers met with the Emperor of China and discussed politics.
Tie Tang's eyes only glanced briefly and did not linger in these places. His attention shifted to the side of Dashang Ziyuan.
On the lower right side of the suspended palace, there is a towering dark pavilion. The main body is in the shape of a tower, but there are overpasses between each floor of the attic, and ladders are connected to other buildings on the side.
The whole thing is like a black giant beast, quietly dormant in one place, not emitting any brilliance, but rather like the darkest place in the world, absorbing all the light.
The familiar background immediately made Tie Tang find the right direction, and ran with all his strength without disturbing others.
.....
Just as Tie Tang rushed to the Supervisory Hall, Fang Lexian also brought the two brothers to the door of the Fang Family Treasure Pavilion.
As soon as Tie Long took a step, he was hit hard on the shoulder. He turned around and saw it was Tie Hu.
"Second brother, what's the matter? Are you worried that you don't have enough money?"
Fang Lexian laughed loudly when he heard this: "Don't worry, you two, it's just a divine realm pill, but it's not in Fang's eyes.
There are some other treasures here. If you like any of them... you can also tell Fang directly and we guarantee that you will not earn a penny more than the cost price."
Tie Hu slowly shook his head: "Thank you, shopkeeper Fang, for your kindness. Tie is not worried about this, but...brother, look."
He pointed forward with one hand, and in the distance was the floating palace.
"What's there to see... Huh?" Tie Long didn't care at first, but suddenly he seemed to have discovered something. He quickly pinched the seal with both hands, as if he was verifying something.
"How could this be?"
"The fate of the Holy City... is obviously a trend of prosperity and decline. Why has it changed drastically in just a few moments?"
Although Fang Lexian has a high level of cultivation, he has no attainments in this area. Hearing this, he couldn't help but become interested.
"What do you two mean by this?"
Tie Long's right hand was making calculations while explaining to him: "Before we came in, we had already seen the fortune of the Holy City from a distance. It was a sign of flowers blooming and oil cooking in flames.
Whatever flourishes must decline, whether it flourishes or thrives, this is the ultimate principle of heaven and earth and cannot be changed.
But let’s look at it now....
However, the luck of the Holy City has changed from black to red, and there has been an incredible reversal, which is equivalent to forcibly raising the peak of the dynasty and causing the great merchants to fall from the peak."
Fang Lexian was shocked: "Having fallen from the peak? Isn't that a sign of great disaster?"
"No, no." Tie Long shook his head repeatedly.
"The fortune of the Holy City has already reached its peak, and now it has fallen from its peak. This is actually a good thing, as it gives it the opportunity to reach a higher peak.
Just..."
"Just what?"
"It's just that this kind of thing is logically impossible to happen. Even in the ancient books I have studied, there is no record of this situation."
Tiehu patted Tielong on the shoulder: "Brother, the method of xiangqi is just one of a kind. If it is combined with the overall situation, it may not be able to explain this weirdness."
"Oh? Tell me about it." Tie Long is extremely confident in his abilities, and he is indeed the most accomplished among the three brothers.
But Tiehu has always been calm, and he may be able to detect something from angles that he didn't expect.
"The holy capital gathers once the fortune, heavenly fortune, and earthly fortune cannot be changed. Only human luck can affect this situation."
Tie Long frowned: "Human destiny? Impossible. How insignificant is human destiny compared to the general trend of heaven and earth?"
"The fortune of one person cannot affect the fortune of the entire dynasty, unless it is someone like the Human Emperor."
Tiehu couldn't understand the key, but he still insisted on his opinion.
"The current situation can only be caused by the fate of people affecting the Holy Capital. I am afraid that someone with great luck suddenly came to the Holy Capital, or made some kind of choice that is beneficial to the Holy Capital."
Tielong held his chin in his right hand and nodded when he heard this: "This statement is not bad...but I still don't believe it.
If you want to extinguish the flames of destiny and shake the entire dynasty with the power of one person, what kind of terrifying destiny will it be?
There is no such person in the world!"
The change in luck in the Holy City immediately alarmed many ancient beings.
Their feelings are deeper than those of Iron Dragon and Iron Tiger, and their methods are even more sophisticated.
"A great dragon has become a saint!"
"I have never seen such a lucky child."
"This person's luck is so great and so strong... it has reached a point where he can't bear it, and it is impossible for him to have it himself."
"When things go wrong, there must be monsters. For those who can go against the great fortune, the blessings of practicing for all eternity will not be enough. He must have obtained some kind of supreme treasure."
"Find him."
"Difficult, difficult, difficult."
"It's not difficult at all. Just check everyone who has come to the Holy Capital recently. That person must be hiding among them."
"Who will take action?"
"...."
"...."
"The supervisor patrols the heavens on behalf of the heavens and supervises the heavens. Lord Shang Palace... How about you do this for me?"
"Beyond the law, Shu Shang can do nothing."
"Stingy guy..."
"Coward..."
"Old stubborn!"
......
Tie Tang was unaware of the change in Chaoge's fate. He had already stood in front of the Supervisory Hall, but was shocked by the sight before him.
In front of him, there are three brave animals, shaped like tigers and leopards, with heads and tails like dragons, and whose colors are both gold and jade, playing and playing.
This three-headed Pixiu has a pair of wings on its shoulders, but they are not extended. It has two horns on its head, and its size is not too big, only about eight feet.
In fact, we have seen a lot of Pixiu Tietang. Various statues, books, and murals all have depictions of Pixiu, especially his own official seal of the supervisory envoy, which looks like Pixiu.
When the official seal was handed over that day, Qiu Zhengyang also specifically told them to judge their respective official ranks based on the horns of the official seal Pixiu.
But the problem is...
The official seal is an official seal, and the statue is a statue. They are all fake, imitation, and dead things.
The three vivid Pixiu in front of him, after being verified by the martial arts eye...
It’s definitely a living thing!
It’s a living thing!
"The Supervisory Hall...are we just going to use these three living Pixiu to watch the door?" Tie Tang took a breath of cold air and did not dare to act rashly.
After waiting for a while, when he saw that the three-headed little guy was tired from playing, he took a step forward and took out the official seal in his hand.
"Xiaguan Tietang is the supervisory envoy of Jiangdu Prefecture, Qingshui County, and Qingshui City, supervising the county residences, and has been ordered to come here."
The three-headed Pixiu stopped playing and stared at Tie Tang curiously with its little head raised. One of them walked up to him with a clatter of its dragon tail.
"Whoever asked you to come, let him come out on his own."
Tie Tang smiled bitterly. If he had the ability to call that person out, he wouldn't have to stay here.
"Ahem, I hope you three... It's convenient for you, I do have something important to do."
The three-headed Pixiu fiercely surrounded Tie Tang, like three-headed bullies.
"Today, this place is occupied by my third brother. No one can enter or leave. Even if Shang Yue, Wan Lin and Qu Bo come, they must abide by my third brother's rules."
Pixiu's words were so crazy that the three names he mentioned were the three feared masters of the Supervisory Hall.
Tie Tang didn't believe it, but he didn't dare to offend the three-headed beasts, so he could only bite the bullet and communicate with the three-headed ferocious beasts.
“I don’t know how to be accommodating?”
The leader Pixiu's eyes lit up: "That's right. If you want to get in or out, you have to make a deal with my third brother."
"What deal?"
"Well, I have a few peach trees planted in my backyard. They produced too many fruits this year and can't sell them now. Can you buy some for me?"
"This is a small matter. I happened to be thirsty, so I bought a hundred and eighty to satisfy my thirst."
A smaller Pixiu glared at Tie Tang and said in a sweet voice: "My peaches bloom once every three thousand years, bear fruit once every three thousand years, and mature once every three thousand years.
If you smell it, you can live 360 years; if you eat one, you can live 47,000 years.
If you can afford it for one hundred and eighty yuan, why don’t you praise Haikou?"
Tie Tang's jaw dropped when he heard this.
Good guy, is this the Queen Mother’s flat peach or ginseng fruit?
Is it true or false...
He asked dryly: "If you eat one, you can live to 47,000 years old, but if you smell it, you can live to 360 years old.
Then I'll buy one and keep it, and I won't eat it.
If you just smell it all day long, wouldn’t it mean you will live forever?”
The three-headed Pixiu's expression froze and he paused. His little head turned on an intracranial storm. You looked at me, I looked at you, big eyes staring at small eyes.
"Brother, that seems to be the truth."
"I finally know why our peaches can't be sold. There's a flaw in this."
"Impossible. My brother is extremely resourceful. How could this person think of things that none of us have thought of?
There must be some lies in this, so don’t pay attention to what he said."
"Brother makes sense."
"It must be the eldest brother, I almost let this guy deceive me."
The leader Pixiu roared angrily, and Tie Tang almost spit out the smelly mouth.
"Don't talk nonsense. Anyway, if you want to go in and out, you have to buy peaches. If you don't buy, get out."
Tie Tang suppressed a smile and was almost amused to death by these three living treasures: "Buy, buy, buy, I'll buy one."
"Minimum purchase is two."
"Then two, how much is one?"
"One two hundred."
Tie Tang didn't waste any time, he took out four life elixirs, held them in his palm and handed them over.
Little Pixiu stretched out his paw and scratched his head: "Brother, this kid is insidious, don't be fooled by him, you have to use the Dzi beads to calculate."
"That's the truth."
Tie Tang couldn't bear it any longer and tried to persuade him: "No, one peach is two hundred, but two peaches are only four hundred. Does this still need to be counted?"
"Shut up, don't try to trick my third brother." The leader, Pixiu, ignored him and took out a calculation chip made of jade beads, tinkering with his little paws and started calculating.
"Two hundred...plus two hundred..."
"Eight hundred!"
"I knew you wanted to lie to me. Fortunately, I used Dzi beads to calculate one side. Look, two hundred plus two hundred, eight hundred, right?
Don’t say I lied to you. Even if I lied to you, would Dzi Beads still lie to you?"
Tie Tang was stunned, speechless for a while, and even began to doubt himself.
"Brother, this kid doesn't seem to believe it. Let's count it again for him."
"Okay, I'll do the math for you in person, so you don't have to worry about it afterwards."
The big Pixiu really took the jade dzi bead to calculate, stretched it out in front of Tie Tang's eyes and played with it for a while.
"Eight hundred!"
"That's right?"
"My brother San never lies to anyone."
Tie Tang swallowed hard and looked at the three-headed brave in a daze.
"If that's what you want...can I just buy one? I didn't bring enough money."
"You don't have any money, right? One is fine."
The big Pixiu looked very serious, and picked up the pearl and jade chips to calculate in front of Tie Tang.
"Now, if you only buy one, it's eight hundred minus two hundred..."
"Six hundred, give me the money!"
Plop~
Tie Tang's feet went weak and he almost sat down on the ground.
This is an encounter with the God of Arithmetic.
He reluctantly stood up and tried to ask: "How much does one cost?"
"Two hundred for one, didn't I tell you, do you have ears?"
As if afraid that Tie Tang would not believe it, Big Pai Yao calculated it again.
"Look, one is two hundred, two hundred plus two hundred is eight hundred, and now you only need one, right?
I'll subtract one more for you, eight hundred minus two hundred. What's that if it's not six hundred?
Calculator will not lie."
Tie Tang slowly gave a thumbs up: "You know how to calculate."
The three-headed Pixiu immediately beamed after hearing this, and its big green eyes kept flashing.
"Then if you want to calculate it like this...what if I want two?"
"Two~ It's easy to calculate, look... it's... six hundred plus six hundred..."
"One thousand and two!"
Thumb thump thump~
Tie Tang retreated continuously, and there was blood lingering where he landed. Fortunately, the floor of the Holy City was strong, otherwise it would have shattered into powder.
"Three heroes, Tie is convinced. I won't buy it. I'll just wait at the door."
Big Pixiu looked at Tie Tang with confusion, and then the crackling sound of calculations was heard again.
"You don't want to buy it? If you don't want to buy it, then I'll do the math for you."
"Does it count even if you don't buy it?"
"A favor is a favor, and the number must be clear. Don't you understand this? How do you act as a supervisor?"
Big Pai Yao no longer paid attention to Tie Tang and started to calculate on his own: "One peach and two hundred, if you don't want both, that's one thousand and two minus four hundred...
Just give me eight hundred!"
Tie Tang laughed angrily: "If I don't buy it, I'll give you eight hundred?"
