The two people on the top of the cliff didn’t know that on a snowy night not long ago, there was a conversation between two extraordinary people on the edge of this cliff, which directly changed the cliff city, the Sky Rift Valley, and even more. The situation in the vast world.

The reason why we met here was because the final arrangements were being made for the Yi Bao Banquet in the evening on the Tianyi Tower, which was not suitable for conversation. Moreover, Yu Ci felt that this place was higher than the Tianyi Tower, with a wider view and more ambience. He also feels better.

Zhao Zi said, naturally, he has no objection.

At this time, both of them were sitting on the ground casually. Geng Fu, the fat shopkeeper of Tianyi Building, sent two skilled men to climb up the cliff and specially delivered blankets for the floor, tables and other items, and arranged them carefully.

Zhao Ziyue seemed to be a slow-tempered person, and his speech was rather circuitous and reserved. After he formally expressed his apology, he started chatting with Yu Ci about irrelevant things, and slowly moved closer to the situation in Cliff City. Something he saw in the past two days. It’s about how Bairi Mansion is doing, Wanling Sect and other sects are doing, including the movements of demons and so on.

At the end, he sighed: “The situation at this time and place is also very difficult. As a foreigner, I am dazzled by it. It must be hard for Taoist friends to preside over affairs inside and outside the city.”

This was a bargain. Yu Ci glanced at him and said with a smile, “It’s actually not that complicated.”

As he spoke, he drew a line on the desk and tapped his fingers on both sides: “It’s either this way or that way. What I have to do is to make the two sides become one side. It’s very simple.”

“Oh? Yu Daoyou is indeed a bold and generous person!”

Zhao Ziyue could still hold back the smile on his face, but he couldn’t follow the words that followed.

The conversations we have had so far are not the attitude of a spiritual cultivator toward a pill-returning cultivator, but the attitude of the Lichen Sect toward a “foreigner.” Yu Ci was already used to this role, and it seemed that Zhao Ziyue also had this realization, and he thought about it seriously.

Yu Ci ignored him. Looking from here, the bricks and tiles on the tops of the tens of thousands of houses in Cliff City reflected the sunlight, making the weather in late winter seem warmer and warmer. Spring was approaching, and even the air became humid. stand up. He took a long, deep breath, and the fish dragon in front of him sensed it, flicking its tail and circling around him.

It has been nearly ten days since I raised the fish and dragon using the spirit control method, and the connection between the two has become increasingly clear. Even if Yu Ci closed his eyes, he could still feel the movement of the fish and dragon around him. Sometimes when the little guy was close, when he was breathing in and out, he could feel the breaths of both sides communicating with each other – of course, most of the time The ichthyosaur was still unilaterally absorbing his energy to enrich itself, but this still formed a connection.

Perhaps because he was too involved in practicing the “Xuanyuan Fundamental Qi Method” before, Yu Ci consciously or unconsciously started to think about things in terms of physical images and mental images. In particular, the idea of ​​”looking at the whole, starting from the structure, and borrowing external objects to reflect the mental image” has an even more profound impact because it is his most famous work.

He thought more than once about how interesting it would be if fish and dragons were included in his “inner void”.

But, this is just a delusion after all.

As living beings, fish and dragons have lively Qi and complex changes in form and spirit. Even if they are not as good as human beings, who are the most powerful creatures, they are far more powerful than those magical weapons with regular structures and relatively simple Qi movements. He is not a genius like Xie Liang, even if he transforms fish and dragons into his “objects”, it is difficult to connect them with a “stroke” and reflect them in the “empty space in the heart”.

To put it bluntly, I still can’t grasp it, and even if I hook it up, what’s the use?

While having similar thoughts, Zhao Ziyue spoke again on the other side:

“Fellow Daoist Yu, are you really not selling this fish and dragon?”

Hearing this, Yu Ci turned his attention back from the fish and dragon, feeling slightly unhappy. However, Zhao Ziyue looked very sincere. He cupped his hands towards Yu Ci and said:

“Fellow Daoist Yu, it’s not that I don’t understand the rules. In fact, I understand the rules of this Yibao Banquet very well. If you want to exchange for something that suits your needs, I’m afraid it won’t be that easy!”

“Oh?”

Seeing that Yu Ci was interested, Zhao Zi said with a smile: “Our northern wilderness has poor resources. To survive there, most of the things we use must be supplied by the big merchants in the south. When it comes to shops, The prosperity of the store is much better than here. Therefore, I am familiar with the methods used by these big merchants. Just like this Yibao Banquet, you can see them handing out a list of treasures before the banquet?” /

“That’s not true.”

“Look, at events like this, trade auctions, etc., if the list of treasures is not distributed in advance, how can the attendees know whether there is anything they need? How can they allocate resources and exchange them? Since they cannot be exchanged in time, Allocating resources will greatly reduce the standard of Yibaoyan. Suixin Pavilion is also a time-honored brand in this industry, so how can we not know the reason? ”

Zhao Ziyue pointed to the fish and dragon flying in the air, and said: “In this case, it is just letting people try their luck. Only a very few people will prepare such rare things as fish and dragon in advance like fellow Taoists. Most people just join in the fun to see if there are any strange things at the Yibao Banquet, and if they like it, they try to exchange it, and there is no loss if they do not.

“As for Sui Xin Pavilion, they will definitely bring out several very high-quality treasures. Generally, they will be slightly higher than the local people can bear, so that they can weigh them carefully. If the exchange is successful, the bento is a normal business; if the exchange is Even if you don’t go out, you can still leave the reputation of Suixin Pavilion as a specialty of high-quality products…”

“A gimmick?” Yu Ci concluded.

“Exactly!”

Zhao Ziyue clapped his hands and said with a smile: “For large merchants like Suixin Pavilion, their main business income is bulk transactions. Small caravans like this are just a few gimmicks. If you want to find something satisfying, But if you want to have good luck, you might as well tell fellow Taoist what you want to get in exchange for the fish and dragon. I also have a few lines in my hand and can mix a lot of good things. Maybe I can satisfy fellow Taoist? “

Hearing his words, Yu Ci couldn’t help but look him up and down for a moment, and finally smiled: “What my fellow Taoist said makes sense, I have gained experience. But unfortunately, this fish dragon has an owner…”

Zhao Ziyue left with a disappointed expression. Yu Ci watched as the green light barrier opened outside him and the vehicle flew down the cliff. He did not look back for a long time.

This guy really wants to buy an ichthyosaur, which makes people worry less, but judging from his behavior, it may not be that simple.

Yu Ci suddenly missed the days when he had the Illuminating Picture. Things in the world have always been easy from frugality to luxury, but difficult from luxury to frugality. At this moment, he was thinking, if there is a divine plan here, let alone Zhao Zi, even the troubles in the entire cliff city cannot be hidden from him!

Since the battle with Nan Songzi caused the Irōshin Picture to disappear, he has been worshiping and refining the Irōshin Bronze Mirror very seriously every day, making it more and more delicate and precise in response to his own breath. Every breath he takes, It can bring about the tidal change of the spiritual energy inside the Zhaoshen Bronze Mirror. According to the standards of the “Tiangang Disha” sacrificial refining method, the superimposed talismans must reach more than five layers, but the Zhaoshen Diagram still has not been restored.

Yu Ci never thought that he would be unable to walk without the Divine Map, just like this incident in Cliff City. If he were alone, even if he had a divine plan by his side, he would never be able to take control of the entire city in just a few days, which would make Bairi Mansion unable to lift its head. It’s just that people are always a little greedy…

“What are you thinking about?”

Xie Yan’s voice suddenly came out, and Yu Ci was startled. When he turned around, he saw Xie Yan standing behind him at some point.

He stood up quickly, smiled and saluted: “Thank you, Master.”

In the past few days, Yu Ci and Xie Yan’s tacit understanding has become deeper and deeper, and their names have also changed unconsciously, from the relatively new “Xie Xianchang” to “Xie Shibo”. In fact, they have surpassed the status of outer disciples, but Xie Yan doesn’t care, everything will be easy to handle.

Xie Yan ignored him and only focused his gaze on the fish and dragon, observing the little guy’s movements. After a long while, he nodded: “You did a good job.”

Then he said: “Go down.”

“Now?”

You must know that the Yi Bao Banquet will not start until more than two hours later. As Xie Yan, no one dares to gossip, let alone now, even if he is late for a while. Such eagerness can only show that Xie Yan attaches great importance to the golden bone and jade plate.

Understanding this, Yu Ci naturally had no objection. Immediately, he was wrapped in Xie Yan’s sword energy and fell straight to the top of Tianyi Tower. The appearance of the two of them caused quite a commotion. Not to mention those who were just watching the excitement on the covered bridges on both sides, some monks who came earlier on the three floors below were also talking about it.

Zhao Ziyue and his companions, except for the one who was injured by Lu Mingyue and was still recuperating in the inn, the others arrived early and wandered around the floors, gathering and leaving. Laid back and casual. After the news of Xie Yan and Yu Ci’s arrival came, the six people gathered together to chat again. Their faces were relaxed, but the content of their words was very solemn:

“I didn’t understand it before I came here, and I still wanted to fish in troubled waters. Now it seems that this cliff city is in chaos, but the water is not muddy!”

Zhao Zi said, his thin lips moved slightly, and his voice was low but clear:

“I chatted with the man upstairs for a while. The man’s cultivation level is mediocre, but he knows how to take advantage of the situation and is very thoughtful. It seems that he will make some moves in the near future. The Lichen Sect is supporting him from behind. If we fall into it, we may not be able to get out. Remember, from now on, don’t act rashly. Stop the ‘big’ business first, and wait until this mess is over before talking about anything else. Understand?”

The companions nodded one after another. Sha Cong ranked second in the group. Although he was arrogant and rough, he still had a clear mind. He lowered his voice and said:

“Several patrons I found before…”

“Big or small?”

“Small business, serious business.”

“Do it, why not do it. Isn’t the Yibao Fair a good opportunity for us second-rate dealers to do something? Remember, we are ‘second-rate dealers’. It doesn’t matter if we buy or sell. We also need to find more customers and make a name for ourselves. But don’t cross the line. Who dares to take on a ‘big’ business and make everyone unable to get off the stage? Don’t blame me for being unkind!”

As he spoke, the lion cat in his arms meowed “meow” in a sharp and harsh tone. Sha Cong and others all bowed their heads in agreement.

Zhao Zi said, “If you don’t stand under a dangerous wall, Brother Yushang lies high among the clouds and bamboos.” The mirror on the spiritual stage attracted everyone’s attention, and Yi Bao’s banquet saw a graceful figure. In the first two days of the week, don’t be too far away by clicking on red tickets, and your collection must be stable and sustainable. Thank you!
