Master, I want to marry the eldest brother

Chapter 25 Three Orders
There are 37 cities in Yong State, and there are 37 Luoxia Palaces. The outer gate of Taiwei Xianzong in Zhongqu State is called Qichi Palace, and the one in Yu State is called Fuyun Palace. But they are not related.The power of Luoxia Palace cannot reach Yong Country, but in Yong Country, because of the offerings of high officials and nobles, it is hard to be underestimated.

Zhaolai existed more than 500 years ago. At that time, there was a sundial island off the east coast of Yongguo. It was not used for fishing and hunting, but only for looting. Yongguo had no navy, so it had to station an army here at the mouth of the Junjiang River. , used to prevent the sundial island from being plundered, the army was stationed for a long time, the sea people lived in the barracks and gradually became villages and towns, merchants heard the news, the market rose, and the villages and towns evolved into towns.

After Sundial Island sank, Yongguo withdrew its troops and built half of the city wall, which was truly a city outline.

Compared with the inland river city like Bukou, which guards the waterways and is convenient, Zhaolai only seems to be thriving when it opens to the sea. Merchants gather here in April to sell shrimp skin powder, salted fish, etc., which are loved by ordinary people. "Seafood" is shipped to inland city-states or other countries, and there are also merchants who buy high-end goods such as pearls, corals, and even seafood, but seafood will only be shipped to Qingyi, and it will stink any further.

Zhaolai's Luoxia Palace is not regarded as a "Shrimp Flour Palace" or a "Salted Fish Palace" by the common people, thanks to the luxury of pearls and corals.

Naturally, Luoxia Palace cannot collect taxes, but it gets a lot of money.

Haimin sold the marine materials to workshop owners who had registered permanent residence in the Yong state. After processing, the workshop owners sold the output to businessmen who came to purchase. The latter was taxed by the Zhaolai government. In the pockets of officials, large and small, and their family members in Zhaolai, these people have no shortage of food and drink, and their lives are full and greedy. Where else can the money in their pockets go?
Originally, the Taiwei Immortal Sect set up an outer sect just to save the disciples from wasting time and energy for cultivation resources. The outer sect was mainly responsible for purchasing all kinds of natural materials and earth treasures. However, there are very few natural materials and earth treasures. Most of his disciples had long since given up cultivating immortality and asking, so naturally they would not refuse the gold and silver that came to their doorstep. From generation to generation, "Don't come in if you have money but no right" has become the unlettered house number of Luoxia Palace.

In the Luoxia Palace in each city, the highest cultivation level is the foundation-building disciples, and Zhaolai Luoxia Palace is no exception. There are two foundation-building disciples in the Luoxia Palace. They are the late foundation establishment stage and the foundation establishment middle stage cultivation base respectively. Among the elders of the outer sects of Luoxia Palace, the cultivation base is considered good, and the Luoxia Palace elders in many places will only be in the early foundation establishment stage.

Although they are all elders of the outer sect, they are also sorted according to their seniority. Yutong is the first elder, and Yanze is the second elder. Officials who are close to each other can call them "Realist Yutong" and "Realist Yanze" in private. In fact, where are these two people enough to achieve the realm of "real people"?But when it comes to the nobles in Zhaolai City, apart from Mr. Fucheng, they belong to the two of them. It’s not that they are not as good as Fucheng. The secular government and the cultivators are originally two worlds. The government didn't buy it, and due to the sect's non-interference rules, they could only be soft on the surface.

It is better to say that Zhaolai Mansion is being cured by water every year. The Lord of the Fucheng is eager to kneel down and "real person" can eliminate the flood, so how dare you not buy it.It must be known that if the Fu Cheng didn't buy it, it would be fine if the flood was cured, but if it couldn't be cured, he would definitely be accused by Luoxia Palace of offending the immortal.

The Taiwei Immortal Sect above the Luoxia Palace is the closest and most well-known in Yongguo. It is the fairy fate of the wife of the general's mansion when she was young. It can be seen that the Taiwei Immortal Sect is higher than the clouds in the sky, and the clouds can still be seen every day. See, who has seen those true immortals hidden in Lutai Mountain?

In the mundane world without inner disciples, the elders of Luoxia Palace are basically equivalent to the role of the mountain king here.

At this time, the two "real people" were looking at the sandbar at the bottom of the valley from the Linglong Pagoda in the palace. From their positions, the sandbar was like a large basin of footwashing water poured out, emitting an unpleasant fishy smell, and it was dirty for a while. large tracts of land.

"Could it be that some casual cultivator came from somewhere?" Yan Ze, who appeared to be nearly seventy years old, stood half a step back, carefully observing the expressions of the people beside him.

The only one standing in front of Yan Ze was Yu Tong, who had a beardless face and looked only in his 30s, but had a higher level of cultivation. Take someone down to have a look."

Yan Ze shrank his neck in fright, shook his white beard and said, "I'll go in person?"

"Otherwise, should I go, Elder?" Yu Tong kept sneering, his eyes stopped at the area of ​​the sand groove pit, the aura surged for only a few breaths, and the disciples in the Qi refining period passed away without feeling anything, but in the presence of the Great Elder In his eyes, the aura of the entire sandbar was affected, the momentum was terrifying,
Their spiritual sense can't see that far, so they can only send people down to investigate.

"Great Elder, I think that fluctuating spiritual energy is not simple, I'm afraid it's a sword cultivator." The Second Elder looked at him, his knowledge was not low, and his judgment was correct.

There are four main types of cultivators: tool cultivator, talisman cultivator, qi cultivator, and sword cultivator.Qixiu enters the Tao with things outside of the body, and there are various subdivisions. It depends on what the cultivator’s natal magic weapon is, and it is whatever. The real magic weapon is Ding, which is called Dingxiu. Specializes in talisman and talisman formations, which is easy to understand; qi cultivation focuses on moving qi, using the true energy inside the body to manipulate the aura and aura outside the body, and mostly uses whisks and silk ribbons; However, due to the large number of practitioners, sword cultivators have become a large category.

Fighting against the four types of cultivators, the most sensitive is the weapon cultivator, the most troublesome is the talisman cultivator, the most elusive is the qi cultivator, and it is best not to confront the enemy - the sword cultivator.The sword master kills, cuts both sides, leaves no retreat, prefers jade fragments, not tiles, no matter what you cultivate, you will find it difficult to meet a sword cultivator, even if the cultivation level is lower than one level, it is difficult to get it from the sword cultivator, even if They are the other three types with high cultivation bases. If they bully sword cultivators with low cultivation bases, they must guard against a careless one who will be bitten hard.

There are not many casual cultivators in the outside world, but if it is really a sword cultivator among casual cultivators, it is definitely a murderous thing. Yan Ze secretly hated Yutong for not daring to take risks himself, forcing him to investigate. Make it clear: Jianxiu, you are afraid of me.

Originally, they could have pretended not to notice, and let them pass by with their eyes closed, but a few days ago, the inner sect sent three orders successively. King Yong jumped on the throne, and they had to obey obediently, because they knew very well that they could enjoy all this because there was a giant behind them: Taiwei Xianzong.What are the vassal states in the north?What is the emperor of the north?Taiwei Xianzong just didn't bother to look down to see if there were ants on the ground under his feet.

The Taiwei Immortal Sect thought that the disciples of the inner sect were wasting time and energy collecting resources by themselves, so the Luoxia Palace, Qichi Palace, Fuyun Palace, etc. of the outer sects appeared.Similarly, if Taiwei Xianzong finds that the Outer Sect has not done its best, and breathes a sigh of relief, the entire Outer Sect does not need to exist.

Although Yutong and Yanze are foundation-building monks, they are already great achievements in casual cultivators, and stomping their feet can make the ground tremble. Even the lowest level disciples are not qualified.

They already knew that it was impossible to practice immortality and so on. They gave up cultivation and looked back. Compared with casual cultivation, they are more happy, healthier than ordinary people, and they can enjoy wealth and power.

In order to continue this kind of life, it is imperative to follow the orders from the inner sect.

The first order said that there was a ten-year-old child who ate a GUI fish. In the future, this child would be enchanted and had to be killed.

The order is vague, but it is not difficult to understand: the yu fish is a demon fish, and ordinary people who have eaten the yu fish can also practice, but they practice the magic way. What is the outer door concerned about?The outer sect knew nothing about this matter, but the inner sect even knew how old the child who ate the yuyu was!
This is the same as Fu Cheng's lord was concerned about whether the walls of the inner courtyard of his subordinate Zaoli's house were high enough, and he was so frightened that he couldn't explain clearly.

Yu Tong guessed two possibilities, one is that the GUI fish is real, a certain disciple in the inner sect thought it had other uses, but was eaten by an ordinary child, so he wanted to kill him with a grudge, but he couldn't find the child to run away Where did he go, so he had to bribe the head of the outer sect to use the outer sect to find a solution. Only the head of the outer sect would know about this kind of thing, and Luoxia Palace would not dare to ask; What resources can be obtained are enshrined, the people above can easily judge that Zhaolai is very poor, and there is no need to set up the Luoxia Palace, so first find a small matter for them to do, if they can't do it, the city's Luoxia Palace will be withdrawn. Xiagong is also a matter of course.

Later, after asking the Luoxia Palaces in several other cities, they all got this order, so Yutong and Yanze let their hearts go down.

They really did their best in their work. Once they confirmed their status and there was nothing to worry about, they sent out all the disciples they could to search around for ten-year-old children.

It's just that the inner door didn't give names, and didn't say boys and girls. Luoxia Palace first searched through Zhaolai City, and checked all ten-year-old children in every household. Anyone who has no father or mother and can't tell their origins will be locked up first. Get up, and then go out of the city to search in the entire Zhaolai Mansion.

Originally, this matter was troublesome and not dangerous. Who would have thought that the three disciples who were leaving the city would be killed when they caught up with several people to interrogate the children among them. They asked for help before they died, and the five disciples who arrived were escaped by the other party. ——After this incident happened, Yutong and Yanze felt that something was wrong. The child's identity was probably unusual, so the mention of eating a yuyu was probably just a random reason.

The child didn't go to other places, but ran to Zhaolai, and they could only admit that they were unlucky, and hurriedly reported the matter.

Within two days, another order came down, which looked much more formal than the first one. Presumably it was not from the hands of the head of the outer sect, but actually passed down from above. Seal the entrance.

There is a secret realm in Zhaolai Sea, which is not a big secret, because in the past, when the owner of the secret realm was still alive, he was still friends with the head teacher of Taiwei Immortal Sect. Zhaolai Luoxia Palace was cautious about the location of the secret realm. It is very clear, and it is convenient to restrain the disciples not to trespass on this loose cultivator's territory when they are doing things, so as not to accidentally offend the friend who is in charge, and die without knowing how to die.

The identity of the master of this secret realm was a mystery in his lifetime, but if he could become a friend of Taiwei Immortal Sect's head teacher, his strength might not be too weak. Gong received the order to seal the entrance, not to break in, which was much easier.

After a lot of trouble, it was done.

Then, the third order came.
