Lonely Immortal

"Hey, it's fun now. The previous backer of this store died in Daoyi Mountain. Now someone is looking for trouble. Come on, let's leave quickly to avoid bad luck later."

Fatty Tian Qikun seemed to know the situation of this store very well. He quickly pulled Zhang Zhiwen away from this place of right and wrong.

Zhang Zhiwen just heard that the other party was from Wan Jizong and thought he would find him. However, it was obvious that Wan Jizong and others did not know Zhang Zhiwen, because the monks of Wan Jizong were not the only ones chosen this time. There are also some monks and followers from the past, and these monks and followers naturally do not know Zhang Zhiwen, so of course they will not notice Zhang Zhiwen and Tian Qikun. Their goal is to cause trouble for this store.

In this way, Zhang Zhiwen followed Tian Qikun and left here.

After coming out, Tian Qikun seemed to be in a good mood. He said with a smile: "This is a wrong place. This kind of thing happens every day. Don't be surprised."

Tian Qikun thought that Zhang Zhiwen was a little wary just now because he didn't know the situation here. In fact, Zhang Zhiwen was really vigilant just now, because the other party was a monk from Wan Jizong after all, but obviously, the monks from Wan Jizong were also better people. , which also includes various followers.

However, Zhang Zhiwen didn't say much. He just looked back at the situation in the store. There was no sound of fighting in the store. It was obvious that the store had been suppressed by the monks of Wan Jizong.

Seeing Zhang Zhiwen looking back, Tian Qikun added: "Actually, small shops like this don't last long. They often change owners. Unlike those big shops, they basically never change."

"Oh? Why is this?" Zhang Zhiwen asked casually, knowing that Tian Qikun would definitely tell him the answer.

Sure enough, Tian Qikun said: "Those big shops are all opened by the disciples of the top ten immortal sects. Where can these little scoundrels get their turn to find trouble? Besides, people like Shi Wuyin are also here. They are patrollers of Daoyi Mountain." Law enforcement, no one dares to cause trouble in their territory..."

After Tian Qikun's words, Zhang Zhiwen knew some more detailed things. It turned out that there is also a law enforcement hall here in Daoyi Mountain, that is, the Xianmeng Law Enforcement Hall. Under normal circumstances, the Xianmeng Law Enforcement Hall does not get involved in too many grievances. , but in places like this kind of market, they don’t allow monks to fight each other. This is actually normal. , otherwise powerful monks would have been able to kill people at will, but Zhang Zhiwen did not notice this situation after he came in. However, if it is time to board the board, there will be no such rules. At that time, life and death will depend on it, and at that time, law enforcement will The halls themselves will also join the competing teams, and they will kill without mercy at all.

"Brother Zhang, I think you and I are quite destined, so I would like to remind you that this Daoyi Mountain experience is full of dangers. My former master died in Daoyi Mountain. You must be careful. I see you practicing The salary is not high, and the Dao roots don’t seem to be much. Don’t be impulsive if anything happens in the future. As the saying goes, if you keep the green hills, you won’t have to worry about having no firewood..."

Tian Qikun's subsequent words were a kind reminder to Zhang Zhiwen, and he felt that Zhang Zhiwen was about the same cultivation level as him, and his Dao roots were probably similar. His former master's cultivation level was good, and his Dao roots were also good, but he still died in Daoyi Mountain. Therefore, of course he felt that it would be difficult for Zhang Zhiwen to achieve any good results here, so he continued, "Anyway, you can Now that you have the status of the Chosen Son, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, so don’t be anxious and don’t force things to happen, especially the Dao Intention Fruit. Don’t fight for it. My former master died trying to snatch the Dao Intention Fruit. His cultivation level was comparable. We are much taller, we are already at the eighth level of foundation building, and our Dao roots have reached the twenty-fifth level, but he was still destroyed, alas..."

Tian Qikun seemed to be quite emotional when mentioning the past events. Of course Zhang Zhiwen understood that the other party had good intentions, and Zhang Zhiwen certainly would not try to steal the limelight, so he nodded, cupped his fists and said, "Thank you Brother Tian for reminding me, I'll be careful. "

"Well, I saw that you are a smart person. Hahaha, I feel relieved. By the way, I will give this to you."

Tian Qikun suddenly took out another thing and gave it to Zhang Zhiwen. After Zhang Zhiwen took it, he realized that it was a pamphlet and a ring. He was suddenly confused.

"This is my former master's thing. The booklet contains some records of his experiences in breaking through the barrier. The ring was the magic weapon I used to communicate with him before, but he is dead and I can't use it. Then there is nothing here. I’ve used it, so I just gave it to you.”

Zhang Zhiwen didn't expect that the other party would actually give him such an important thing, so naturally he couldn't accept it, but Tian Qikun waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, this thing is of no use to me, but it may be of some use to you. Especially this ring, you should keep it. If you go up to Daoyi Mountain, you can find his ring. Maybe he still has some things left behind. You can also bring it back for me. After all, I am the same as him. Fate..."

"How about you just treat me as a helper?" Tian Qikun finally said to Zhang Zhiwen sincerely. Obviously, Brother Tian still has some feelings for his former master, and the fact that he has stayed here must be related to this reason, right?

This was somewhat beyond Zhang Zhiwen's expectations. He didn't expect that Tian Qikun was quite loyal. His previous master was dead and he still refused to leave. He still cared about his previous master, so Zhang Zhiwen accepted his things. Then Chongtian Qikun cupped his fists and said, "Brother Tian, ​​don't worry, if I encounter his relics, I will definitely bring them to you."

"Well, thank you very much. Tian will leave first. If you have any questions in the future, just come here to find me anytime. I will live here."

Tian Qikun saw that the matter had been settled, and it was time to say goodbye to Zhang Zhiwen.

Zhang Zhiwen watched Tian Qikun leave, and he realized that Tian Qikun had actually been looking for someone to trust here. Therefore, this person, you really can't judge by appearance. The fat man Tian Qikun may not be the real look. Maybe the real Tian Qikun is a man who values ​​feelings and loyalty.

Zhang Zhiwen felt quite emotional. He met many people in his life, all kinds of people, and there were not many people like Tian Qikun. It's not that Zhang Zhiwen didn't meet him, but he used to see others have such friends, but now he actually met one, so he realized that such people are actually very rare. If there is a chance next time, Zhang Zhiwen will still treat Tian Qikun to a meal.

But soon, Zhang Zhiwen put away his thoughts, because he had more important things to do. He had to prepare well and then climb Daoyi Mountain. He knew that climbing Daoyi Mountain would inevitably encounter some difficulties and obstacles, but Zhang Zhiwen was not very worried. He always acted low-key and cautious. Even people as experienced as Tian Qikun could not see how deep he hid.

So, Zhang Zhiwen found an inn as a place to stay, but this time he also observed the situation first, and then bargained with the store owner. In the end, the price was much cheaper, but it still cost 30 medium-grade spirit stones a day. In other words, Zhang Zhiwen's thousands of high-grade spirit stones were just enough for accommodation, but there was no other way. If he ran out of money in the future, he would think of other ways.

Soon, Zhang Zhiwen moved in. After moving in, Zhang Zhiwen found that staying in the inn had great benefits, because he heard a lot of chaos and noise outside in the middle of the night, either fighting, screaming, quarreling, etc., but no one dared to disturb the inn. After all, the owner of the inn was a disciple of the Ten Great Immortal Sects. Who would dare to come and make trouble for no reason? If it was outside, it would not be certain. Of course, this is also because Zhang Zhiwen's spiritual awareness is sharp, otherwise it would be difficult for ordinary people to hear the movement in the distance.

So, it makes sense that the accommodation fee is a little more expensive. At least it is safe to live in the inn. Even Zhang Zhiwen dare not say that he can get away safely outside, because no one can guarantee who is coming. Maybe the other party will come with hundreds of people?

Zhang Zhiwen actually estimated how many people there were in Daoyi Mountain. Apart from other things, each selection of the Chosen Ones could select about 100 people. If these 100 people had followers, that would be 200 people. And if it was superimposed five times, that would be all the Chosen Ones that could appear within a foundation-building lifespan, which would definitely be 1,000 people. This was still the most conservative number, because those disciples of the Immortal Alliance and even the leaders would definitely not bring only one follower in. Look at the innkeepers and other businesses, there are quite a few people here, so there are at least tens of thousands of people living here, not including followers like Tian Qikun, and there are probably not too few of these people. Those who fight outside are probably mostly these people, but these people should not be underestimated. Some of them have high cultivation, and some cultivators are completely evil, and they may even kill the Chosen Ones, so it is definitely chaotic outside.

However, Zhang Zhiwen didn't have to worry too much about this problem at this moment. He just sat in meditation and rested in the room of the inn. Then he took out the booklet given to him by Tian Qikun, which was the record of his former master's experience in the adventure. This thing was very valuable, so Zhang Zhiwen naturally had to spend some time to read it carefully.

As soon as the booklet was opened, there were rows of dense texts inside. Zhang Zhiwen didn't expect the other party to record it so detailed, but it was good that way, so he read it patiently.

Time passed by bit by bit, and I don't know how long it had passed. Zhang Zhiwen finally read all the contents in the booklet, and then he took a deep breath and put the booklet away. At this moment, it was already dawn outside. Today happened to be the Daoyi Mountain climbing day once a month. Therefore, many people came out as soon as the sky got light.

But Zhang Zhiwen was not in a hurry, because after reading the booklet, he knew many things about Daoyi Mountain that he had never expected.

It turns out that the Daoyi Mountain climbers can come down at any time. After reaching a certain level, they can go down the mountain to rest temporarily, so most cultivators will also go down the mountain to trade some things in the market, but these things are not the main point. The main point is that the booklet records the real records of the Daoyi Mountain. In these records, there are often some teams of cultivators. Tian Qikun’s former master is obviously a lone ranger, who walks alone and has no team leader. But other cultivators are different. They almost always gather in groups of three or five, and they are all led by team leaders. These team leaders have actually climbed higher Daoyi Mountain, so their strength is naturally much stronger. Because of this, many lone rangers cannot beat these teams. Therefore, they can only helplessly wait for the cultivators in these teams to climb to higher levels before they have a chance to go up!

The owner of the booklet was obviously very disgusted with this situation, but he seemed helpless because strength was king. It would definitely be different if the other side had a master leading the team. This was the difference between having a backer and not having a backer. This was also why Tian Qikun asked Zhang Zhiwen to be careful, because Tian Qikun saw that Zhang Zhiwen was also a lone ranger.
