Chapter 130 Qing Kingdom, Dragon City

The yang qi that appeared this time was extremely weak, and compared with the two yang qi absorbed in Linyangfang City before, it was much different.

But it still made Gu Shen feel the change in himself, and the effect was remarkable.

I didn't feel that way before, but now I feel more and more that my mind used to be blocked by something, but now it suddenly clears up, and the whole person is extremely relaxed.

Gu Shen looked down at the infant Gu Xiaoxiao, hearing the sound of her daughter sleeping soundly, couldn't hide her excitement.

He has been thinking about the source of Yang Qi. Compared with the Yin Qi that can directly enhance his strength, the improvement that Yang Qi brought to him is not bad at all, and because he has only absorbed Yang Qi once, Gu Shen is very eager for Yang Qi. .

He is eager to figure out the source of Yang Qi and the triggering conditions, but he couldn't speculate because of the lack of preconditions before, so now, he can conduct some reasoning and analysis.

He slowly closed his eyes, and his mind started running like lightning.

"Judging from what happened just now, the source of yang energy should come from Xiaoxiao."

"According to the time, the last time I absorbed the two yang qi in Linyangfang City was seven days ago."

"At that time, Xiaoxiao should have been born."

"The appearance of Yang Qi twice is related to Xiaoxiao. The last time it was born because of Xiaoxiao, what about this time?"

Gu Shen began to unravel in his mind, and his brain seemed to flow smoothly like a puddle of clear springs, any problem could be easily solved without causing any hindrance to him.

"The yang qi was produced this time after I washed Xiaoxiao's tendons and marrow."

"."

After repeated analysis and reasoning, Gu Shen made such an analysis:
"The appearance of yang energy is related to Xiaoxiao's energy and vitality. If her vitality increases, it will produce yang energy that I can absorb."

"For the first time, the reason why so much yang energy was produced was because she had a life. It was a process from scratch, and it was the emergence of a life, so there was a lot of yang energy."

"The second time, it was because I washed her tendons and marrow for two consecutive nights, which increased her vitality again, so she had yang energy."

"It may not be that Xiaoxiao's life force will produce yang qi every time it increases, but when the vitality increases to a certain level, it will produce yang qi, just like when I washed her tendons and cut marrow for the first time, her Vitality, vigor and spirit have increased, but there is no yang energy, but it only appeared today."

Gu Shen thought silently in his heart.

This is currently the most reasonable guess he can make based on the materials and conditions he knows.

Gu Shen believes that there is no problem with his speculation, this must be the closest analysis to the truth.

But at present, there is still a problem that he has not solved. After absorbing Yang Qi, his mind is much clearer, and his understanding has also been improved, but it does not mean that he will become an omnipotent and omniscient saint. Maybe when he lives After a long, long time, after absorbing a lot of yang energy, he can really achieve that step, but at present, he is still far from reaching that level.

The problem that troubled Gu Shen was that he had absorbed two strands of yang energy in Linyangfang City at that time. Could it be that those were all from Xiaoxiao?
But if they all come from Xiaoxiao, then why are they divided into two yang qi?

Gu Shen has absorbed Yin Qi so many times, but each person can only produce Yin Qi once, and Yin Qi has never been divided into two parts.

Could it be that the absorption of yang qi and yin qi are different?
Or are there other secrets in it?

Gu Shen slowly opened his eyes, his pupils flashed with determination.

"Central Region, Canglei City, Song Family."

"Wait a little longer, I'm going to take a look and ask her a few questions myself."

After thinking for a while, Gu Shen took a deep breath, suppressed all kinds of thoughts in his mind, looked down at his infant daughter who was sleeping soundly, and stretched out his hand to gently caress her.

Then he began to meditate, and his perception of "The Hand of Qingyun" and "Da Kuixing" in his mind gradually increased. At the perfect level, Gu Shen truly stood at the top of the same realm and became a handful of geniuses.

And if he has cultivated a higher level of spiritual skills and cultivated them to a perfect level, then he is a top genius, or even a genius.

Gu Shen once heard that the major holy lands in the Eastern Wilderness once jointly ranked the list of Tianjiao, and those on the list were all young monks, whose combat power was almost invincible among their peers, and fighting enemies across realms was commonplace. It is also common to kill opponents, and these people are called Tianjiao, all of them have cultivated high-level spiritual skills to perfection, and all of them are top-level spiritual roots or even more terrifying spiritual roots.

Gu Shen didn't want to compete for fame and fortune with those Tianjiao monks in the past, but now he is curious about how his spiritual root is. He can be sure that his spiritual root must have improved a lot, but to what extent? , Gu Shen didn't know, he wanted to find another tool for detecting spiritual roots and test it for himself.

"My spirit root was very poor before, and it was extremely poor among the poor spirit roots, so what about now?"

Gu Shen feels that at least it should be a low-level spiritual root or a medium-level spiritual root, because he has been in contact with senior sister Zheng and Sun Fengqing who are also inferior spiritual roots. Well, it is considered taller than the short ones, but neither Senior Sister Zheng nor Sun Fengqing has comprehended any of the spiritual skills to the stage of Dacheng, and he came from behind, so the spiritual root should naturally be higher than these two.

The next day, the sky was slightly brighter.

In Gu Shen's room, the four eyes met, wide-eyed and small-eyed.

"Smile, you woke up so early, are you hungry?" Gu Shen looked at his daughter who had been awake for a while, and said, "Wait a minute, the nanny will be here soon, drink more milk."

Gu Shen thought about it, should he go to the market to get some goat's milk or milk for this little guy?

dong dong dong.

The door was knocked.

Gu Shen knew it was Senior Sister Zheng, he quickly got off the bed, walked to the door, opened the door from the inside, and Senior Sister Zheng was indeed outside.

She had dark circles under her eyes, and it was obvious that she hadn't slept well last night.

Zheng Lin's long black hair is a little messy, but it has a fluffy beauty, and there is a faint scent of soap all over her body, which smells good, but now Gu Shen is gradually doubting whether it is his body scent or the scent of soap ?
Seeing that Senior Sister Zheng's complexion was a little off, Gu Shen said, "Senior Sister, you—"

Gu Shen found out that he had really offended Senior Sister Zheng, which made this a little angry, and interrupted him more than once.

Before Gu Shen finished speaking, Senior Sister Zheng said directly: "You don't need to send Xiaoxiao to someone else's house, I will take care of it at home, you tell me where your friend's residence is, and I will go to him if I have anything to do."

After hearing Senior Sister Zheng's words, Gu Shen was taken aback.

He knows that taking care of children is hard work. Although Xiaoxiao is very obedient, it must not be easy to take care of children, so he thought that when he went out, he would first ask Lao Lu to take care of him for a while.

So I told my senior sister in advance last night, but I didn't expect that after one night, my senior sister suddenly asked to take care of Xiaoxiao herself.

Seeing that Gu Shen remained silent, Senior Sister Zheng frowned and said, "You don't trust me, or do you think I don't take good care of you?"

"No, I think it's too troublesome." Gu Shen said hastily.

He still understood how Senior Sister Zheng was, but he didn't want to trouble her.

Senior Sister Zheng said: "I have no place to go these days, so I just stay here to take care of Xiaoxiao. I like this child very much."

Gu Shen opened his mouth, seeing the serious expression of the senior sister, he could only nod and said: "Okay, then thank you senior sister."

Zheng Lin nodded.

At this moment, there was a knock on the courtyard door, and Zheng Lin put down what she was doing, and went to open the door.

The nurse is here.

Zheng Lin took the nanny to nurse Xiaoxiao and asked about taking care of the child.

After the nanny left, Zheng Lin started tidying up her room again, and said to Gu Shen: "Come back earlier, let Xiaoxiao sleep with me during this time."

Gu Shen also wanted to clean up, but was kicked out by Senior Sister Zheng, she would go to see Xiaoxiao every once in a while, just like a mother.

Senior Sister Zheng wanted to take care of Xiaoxiao herself, which disrupted Gu Shen's plan. He left home in the morning and came to Lu's Mansion. This time he didn't directly climb over the wall and asked his servants to report in front of the mansion.

Soon, Lu Yuanming trotted over.

The reason why he was in such a hurry was because Lao Gu was his best friend, not because Gu Shen was a top master in the realm of a congenital master. . .

"You all recognize clearly that he is the second in charge of the Lu Mansion. When he comes to the Lu Manor in the future, you just let him in without notifying him." Lu Yuanming said to the housekeepers and servants.

Gu Shen couldn't help laughing. Although Lu Yuanming was a scholar, he had a bit of a quack air. He felt like he had entered a bandit village.

Lu Yuanming brought Gu Shen to the study.

In the middle of the study room, there is a sign hanging - "Build a heart for the world, build a life for the people, inherit the knowledge of the past, and create peace for all generations!"

After the two sat down, Lu Yuanming pointed at the words and said with a smile: "Old Gu, these four sentences have already spread in the capital, even among the scholars in the entire Dayin Kingdom. I can win the first prize." , the big reason is also because of your four words."

Gu Shen raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why?"

Lu Yuanming said: "These four sentences have been spread out somehow, and finally found out on my head. I said that I didn't write it, but a friend of mine told me. Some people believe it, but many people don't believe it. It's giving me a headache."

"Later, during the imperial examination, the emperor handpicked me as the number one scholar. I later found out that the emperor also appreciated these four words, so he appointed me."

"."

Hearing Lu Yuanming's complaint, Gu Shen couldn't help laughing.

Lu Yuanming really felt like being roasted on the fire now.

The two chatted for a while, and Gu Shen talked about his purpose of coming to Lu Yuanming this time.

Yesterday I told Lu Yuanming that I would entrust him to take care of Gu Xiao, but now that the situation has changed, I need to talk to him about it.

What's more, Gu Shen told Lu Yuanming that if he didn't have time, he would often send someone to visit Qiumingfang's house, and if he felt that Senior Sister Zheng was tired of taking care of him, he would bring Gu Xiao closer to Lu's residence and wait for him to come back.

Lu Yuanming nodded, looked at Gu Shen, and said, "Old Gu, after listening to you and explaining so much, I feel like I'm going to go out for a long time. How long have you been out?"

Gu Shen said: "It won't be too long, I will try my best to come back."

If it was in the past, when Gu Shen was alone, he would not have thought about rushing back to the capital, wondering how much time he would have to spend outside, but now that he has a daughter, Gu Shen also has concerns in his heart. What you gain will come back as soon as possible.

After chatting with Lu Yuanming for a while, Gu Shen left. He planned to leave the capital today and go to the northeast of Qing Kingdom, where the original Qingyunmen territory and Yulingzong territory bordered.

Gu Shen left, and Lu Yuanming sat alone in the study, thinking about things.

"This guy is getting more and more mysterious. Who the hell is he?"

"And that woman with outstanding appearance and temperament, who is she? Why are you with him? Is it Lao Gu's senior sister? Didn't Lao Gu work as a jailer in the imperial prison before? What kind of senior sister came out?"

In Lu Yuanming's eyes, Gu Shen is like a black hole with too many secrets.

But he didn't want to explore anything, if he could know, Lao Gu would tell him, all he needed to know was that this guy was still his good friend.

dong dong dong.

There were footsteps outside the study, and the next moment, there was a knock on the door.

Lu Yuanming looked up at the door and said, "Please come in."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the study was pushed open, and Zhao Jianjia, the owner of Mingyue County, walked in. She looked around the study, looked at Lu Yuanming, and said, "I heard that Gu Shen is here?"

Lu Yuanming nodded and said, "Just left."

Zhao Jianjia hummed and said, "What is he here for? Ask you to take care of the child?"

Lu Yuanming shook his head, and told his wife the purpose of Gu Shen's visit.

Zhao Jianjia frowned when she heard this, and said, "Stay away from him in the future, this man's character is not good, and the child's mother doesn't know who it is, yet another golden house has come to hide her."

Zhao Jianjia has a bad impression of Gu Shen, thinking that he is an irresponsible person, and he doesn't want his husband-in-law to have more contact with such a person.

Lu Yuanming opened his mouth, wanting to explain to the old man, but he didn't know what to say when the words came to his mouth, it seemed...it seemed...that guy really looked like a libertine?

Lu Yuanming still remembered that in the past, when he went to drink with Gu Shen, he would wait for a long time at Gu Shen's house several times.

……

……

in the afternoon.

Qiumingfang, in front of Gu Shen's house.

Zheng Lin held the baby Gu Xiao in her arms, and looked at Gu Shen with a little reluctance in her eyes.

This scene is rather like a wife at home holding an infant child and seeing off her husband who is about to go away.

Perhaps anyone who saw this scene would think so in their hearts.

Gu Shen glanced at the infant Gu Xiao, and said to Senior Sister Zheng: "Senior Sister, thank you for your hard work."

Senior Sister Zheng nodded, she was still somewhat dissatisfied with Gu Shen before, but now after two days of precipitation, most of that dissatisfaction has melted away.

Now that Gu Shen is about to go out, and she doesn't know the date of return, all the dissatisfaction in her heart has dissipated, and what is left is just worrying.

Now that the Qingyun Sect is gone, she is like a piece of duckweed drifting in the wind, without a place to stay. In other words, in her subconscious mind, Gu Shen is her only support at present.

"Come back earlier." Senior Sister Zheng urged: "Be more careful outside, pay attention to safety, don't do things impulsively, think more about me—"

Xu Shi realized that there was some ambiguity in her words, Senior Sister Zheng blushed slightly, and said in a low voice, "Think about it and smile."

Gu Shen nodded.

He didn't stay any longer, because the longer he stayed, the more reluctant he would be.

He strode away, the setting sun was behind him, and the golden rays shone on his back, as if covering him with a cloak.

After stepping away, Gu Shen didn't look back, he had concerns in his heart, but it was precisely because of concerns that he walked more resolutely.

Although his current talent has been greatly improved, compared with those geniuses with top spiritual roots, there is still a big gap. If you practice step by step in the mortal world, the speed is too slow.

And compared to other monks, he has a unique advantage.

He can absorb Yin Qi to improve himself quickly. If he doesn't make good use of this advantage, Gu Shen will feel that he is reckless, and God will blame him.

How many people want such an opportunity, but they can't get it. Now that I have such an opportunity, I must firmly grasp it.

His current life seems to be peaceful, but all these are appearances, and in fact there is a huge crisis hidden.

Gu Shen didn't know if Ma Shaowen was still secretly looking for revenge for him. If Ma Shaowen found him, although he had become a monk in the foundation establishment period, he was only at the first level of foundation establishment, and Ma Shaowen had a high probability of being in the late foundation establishment period. Monk.

Besides, Ma Shaowen is not an ordinary monk, he is also a genius disciple, and his combat power must not be weak. When he meets Ma Shaowen now, he must not be an opponent.

If it was before, even if he was not Ma Shaowen's opponent, he could escape with the escapism script Song Yinzhang left him, but now it's different, he still has Gu Xiao and Senior Sister Zheng.

I can walk away, but what about the friends around me?
Besides Ma Shaowen's threat, there are many other reasons. For example, Gu Shen has now more and more experienced the cruelty of the cultivation world.

Sometimes it’s not necessarily that you really offended someone, maybe it’s just that the other person doesn’t like you, and others may kill you. There are too many examples of people killing people every time they disagree with each other. There are too many examples in the cultivation world, especially at the bottom.

How important is strength?Take the Young Master Qian whom he met at the Yuezhou Building the day before yesterday, if Gu Shen had no strength, he would probably end badly in the face of that aggressive Young Master Qian.

Young Master Qian did not threaten Gu Shen because Young Master Qian was not as strong as Gu Shen, but if one day, he met such an enemy whose strength far surpassed Gu Shen, what would Gu Shen do?
Apart from these external crises, Gu Shen is still thinking that one day he will go to Cang Lei City in person, and ask Song Yinzhang some things in front of her.

And this all requires strength, if the strength is not enough, why should he go to Canglei City, maybe he won't even be able to see Song Yinzhang's face, and he will be slapped to death with a palm.

These are all urging him to improve his strength as soon as possible.

As Senior Sister Zheng said, now he is not only for himself, he also has someone to protect.

Guarding is not just about words, it needs strength!
After leaving the capital, Gu Shen rushed to the east.

He was in a hurry, so he flew directly in the air without chasing the wind.

There were six countries in the former Qingyunmen's territory, of which only Qingguo bordered on Yulingzong.

The territory ruled by Yulingzong is larger than that of Qingyunmen, dozens of times that of Qingyunmen, bordering on many sects, Qingyunmen is just one of them.

The northeast border of Qing Kingdom is the border with Yulingzong.

Gu Shen is already a monk in the foundation-building realm, and his mana is far stronger than that of the Qi refining period. Even if he didn't specialize in the escape method, his flying speed is extremely fast. Moreover, with the destruction of the Qingyun Sect, spiritual energy has recovered in the six kingdoms. Even if the mana is depleted due to flying, it can be replenished quickly.

Moreover, there is no large spirit-gathering formation in the territory ruled by Yulingzong. There has been spiritual energy for countless years, and its concentration is far higher than that of the current Six Kingdoms area.

In the dark night, Gu Shen crossed the boundary line between Yin Country and Qing Country, he calculated the time in his mind, it is probably Hai Shi, not Zi Shi.

After crossing the boundary line, Gu Shen landed on a hilltop, made some simple repairs, and then continued to rush forward.

Along the way, I saw some national conditions of the Qing Dynasty.

The national conditions of Qing State are probably between Yin State and Zhao State. It is not as turbulent as Yin State, but it is not as prosperous as Zhao State. There are no major wars, but there are bandits who occupy the mountains as kings on some hills, and many People with twilight.

Gu Shen was in a hurry, and had no idea about the national conditions of Qing Kingdom.

After a night of traveling, Gu Shen arrived at the northeast boundary of Qing Kingdom when it was almost dawn.

Qing Kingdom is located in the easternmost part of the former Qingyun Sect's territory, bordering many sects, the most powerful of which is the Yuling Sect, and the most troublesome and dangerous one is also the Yuling Sect.

Of course, most of these so-called troubles and dangers are for Qingyunmen disciples.

Among the sects bordering on the east of Qingyunmen, most of them have a relatively harmonious relationship, but there are more conflicts with Yulingzong. There are both reasons for their positions and problems left over from history.

Many disciples of Yulingzong also hated the disciples of Qingyunmen very much, thinking that a small sect had some support and dared to go against the mighty Yulingzong.

The upper echelons of Yulingzong did not take action against Qingyunmen, but they did not prohibit the disciples below.

Some disciples of Yulingzong would deliberately wander around the border between Qing Kingdom and Yulingzong. If they saw Qingyunmen disciples, they would either kill them directly or arrest them and bring them back to the sect. The disciples of the Qingyun sect who were taken away were basically indifferent.

As for ordinary people, they generally cannot touch the border line, and cannot walk there at all.

Qingguo implements the national policy of closing the country and severing relations with neighboring countries. They live their own lives in this small world of Qingguo. There are troops stationed everywhere near the border. Once ordinary people are found close to the border, He will immediately persuade him to return. If he does not listen to the persuasion, there will be no second consequence except death.

As for why the Qing Kingdom implemented such a national policy of closing the country, Gu Shen knew the reason.

It was only when Gu Shen listened to the conversations of a few inner sect disciples at the Qingyun Sect that he learned that the Qing Kingdom implemented the national policy of closing the country and the reason for it came from the Qingyun Sect's decree.

Qingyunmen has set up a large spirit gathering formation in the territory ruled by Qingyun. How can it be possible for mortals in the world to come in and out at will? Once mortals find the difference between the outside world and the country they live in, it will be very difficult.

Therefore, Qingyun Sect issued a decree to the royal family of the Qing Dynasty, allowing the royal family of the Qing Dynasty to close the country. For thousands of years, the royal family of the Qing Dynasty has changed one crop after another, and they all abide by this national policy. Naturally, there are emperors who want to communicate with the outside world, but in Bits don't last long.

After Gu Shen came to the northeast region of Qing Kingdom, he discovered the difference between this place and other places in Qing Kingdom.

Although the Qing Kingdom could not be said to be in a peaceful and prosperous age, it was basically in a relatively stable era. In comparison, the northeastern region of the Qing Kingdom was much less stable.

Maybe it has something to do with the border with Yulingzong, which has always been unfriendly, or maybe it has something to do with the recent sudden increase in monks.

"Instability is one aspect, and the other is that it will be dilapidated and desolate."

High in the sky, above the clouds, Gu Shen thought about the scenes he saw along the way.

Along the way, Gu Shen would occasionally go to the city to inquire about the situation. He is an expert in inquiring about information and knows the way.

I also know why the Northeast of Qing Kingdom is much more deserted than other places. This Northeast region is the ancestral land of the royal family of the Qing Kingdom. They used to build their capital here, but after realizing that it was more dangerous, the emperor moved the capital to the south. It was not an economic center in the first place, coupled with the southward movement of the political center, and the frequent instability in the northeastern region because of its border with Yulingzong, this place has gradually become deserted.

Gu Shen flew eastward all the way.

There are nine large cities in the northeast of Qing Kingdom, and the easternmost one is Dragon City.

Gu Shen was not in a hurry and immediately rushed to Yulingzong. He wanted to inquire about the situation first, and the place he chose to stay temporarily was the Dragon City in the easternmost part of Qing Kingdom, which was also the closest place to Yulingzong.

In the distance, I saw a huge city sitting on the field.

The city is built of huge stones, majestic and huge, but such a huge city has a small population, and it even seems a little sparse.

In front of the city gate, only three or five ordinary people were entering the city one after another.

Gu Shen landed on a mountain in the distance, with dark rocks under his feet, he stopped and looked into the distance, looking towards Longcheng.

"This city is very big, comparable to the capital of the Yin Kingdom, and we can vaguely see its original glory, but the population is estimated to be only a few tenths of the capital of the Yin Kingdom."
