In this case, there is nothing to be afraid of. Qingyang took the noodles from the other party's hand, then smiled and said, "Thank you, Sister-in-law Sun."
After that, Sister-in-law Sun helped Qingyang arrange a guest room, and Qingyang stayed in this inn. He said nothing all night. Early the next morning, Taoist Mao returned to the village, not even his own home. He came directly to the inn to talk to Qingyang. There were not many outsiders in this village all year round. Old Man Zhi had nothing to do at home. He had a pleasant time with Qingyang yesterday, so he came over.
The three of them chatted for a while, and Qingyang gradually figured out some basic information. They couldn't tell how big the Fallen Ghost Abyss was, and they had never been that far. However, they had vaguely heard that there were seven overlords in the entire Fallen Ghost Abyss, each occupying a vast territory, and the place where the first seven villages were located was under the control of one of the seven overlords, the Infinite Saint.
How high the strength of the Infinite Saint is and how wide the scope of his control is is not something they can know. In their eyes, the Infinite Saint is a god-like figure, and they cannot come into contact with him. They only know that the Infinite Saint is like a god. There are ten fairy cities under its control, and there are many small counties below each fairy city. Each small town controls many villages and towns. There are also many villages like Touqi Village below the towns. This shows that the influence of the Infinite Holy Lord is How powerful.
Calculated in this way, the control area of ??the Infinite Saint is about the same as that of a state in the Kyushu Continent. Ten immortal cities are ten imperial cities. The total territory of the seven overlords is almost comparable to the entire Kyushu Continent. However, the difference between the two is also very big. Most of the people in Jiuzhou Continent are ordinary people. Immortal cultivators are concentrated in immortal sects and casual cultivating cities. There are very few immortal cultivators in the secular world, but the proportion of immortal cultivators is higher in the Fallen Ghost Abyss. Not to mention anything else, among the hundreds of people in the first seven villages, at least 10% are those with cultivation level, even though their cultivation level is very low. Moreover, there is no official government here. Whether you can secure your position depends entirely on your strength. The stronger will occupy a larger territory, while the weaker will have to give up their territory. There is no strict boundary between immortal cultivators and ordinary people.
The township where Touqi Village is located is called Mayi Town, which is the center of more than a dozen surrounding mountain villages. It is three to four hundred miles away from Touqi Village. Villagers only go to Mayi Town when they want to buy something important. The county seat above Mayi Town It's called Tongcoff County, and it's almost two thousand miles away from Mayi Town. The distance is so far that only a few people from the entire Touqi Village, including the village chief, the Fourth Master, have been there.
I heard that the fairy city above Tongcoff County is called Dry Tomb City. Anyway, no one has been to the first seven villages. Dry Tomb City is at least tens of thousands of miles away from Tongcoff County. Everything outside is not peaceful. Low-level monks like them go out. It is impossible to go that far to die. As for the place where the Infinite Saint lives, it is even beyond the reach of people like them.
After some inquiring, Qingyang roughly figured out his current situation. In the first seven villages, all the people he came into contact with were low-level monks. It was impossible to get a pill that could cure his injuries. He had to find a way to deal with the high-level monks. It only requires contact with high-level monks. Not to mention the immeasurable true immortals, there should be some in Dry Tomb City. But with my current strength, it is too difficult to contact high-level monks. If I accidentally fail to get the elixir, I will lose my life. If you take it in, you will lose more than you gain.
The Withered Tomb City is at least tens of thousands of miles away from here. With my current strength, I definitely can't go there. Not to mention how long it will take to walk there, I can't handle the various difficulties and obstacles along the way. Strength is respected here. , is not a peaceful place like the Kyushu Continent. Qingyang couldn't think of a good way for a while, so he could only take one step at a time.
The three of them chatted for half a morning. Taoist Mao and Old Man Zhi were about to leave. Suddenly, there was a sound of gongs outside. It was different from the small gongs used by Taoist Mao when driving corpses. It was slow and crisp. It took a long time to knock. This time The sound of the gong was so rapid and loud that the whole village seemed to hear it.
Hearing the sound of the gong, Old Man Zhi and Taoist Mao changed their faces at the same time. Old Man Zhi said: "The big gong in the village has not sounded for a long time. If the fourth master strikes the gong, there must be nothing good going on."
Taoist Mao nodded and said, "Yeah, usually this gong doesn't ring once a year. I didn't expect that I would meet it as soon as I came back. Forget it, let's go out and have a look."
¡°Then Old Man Zhi, Taoist Mao, and Qingyang stood up and walked outside the inn. The inn owner¡¯s wife, Mrs. Sun, seemed to have heard them, and soon followed them.
Sister-in-law Sun's inn is in the center of the village, not far from where the gong is hung. You can see it when you go out. In front of the gong, there is a little fat man knocking on it every once in a while. At this time, the villagers are also coming one after another. People continue to come out of each house and continue to gather here.
More than a hundred people soon gathered in the village, including all kinds of men, women, old and young. Qingyang glanced at it, and at leastThirty of them have cultivation base, but most of them are in the early and middle stage of Opening Pulse Realm, and there are only a few people in the late stage of Opening Pulse Realm, such as Taoist Mao and Old Man Paper.
The entire arena was noisy, and they didn't stop talking, asking what happened. Seeing that all the household heads had arrived, there was a sound of swaying bamboo sedans in the distance. Everyone looked around and saw four wooden men carrying a bamboo sedan walking towards them. He was wearing a middle-aged man, but this middle-aged man was a little ridiculously fat, like a big puddle of fat on the bamboo sedan, weighing the bamboo pole of the sedan almost to the point of breaking.
This big fat man is the village chief of Touqi Village, Mr. Si. He has a level of Qi refining and is the only Qi refining monk in the whole village. The one who played the gong before was his son, Mr. San. Seeing the village chief coming, everyone said hello and asked about the purpose of calling everyone together. However, the fourth master looked serious and kept his mouth shut, and did not reveal any information.
When the bamboo sedan came to the middle of the crowd, the fourth master got off the sedan and glanced around. When he saw that almost all the people who were supposed to come were here, he said, "Everyone must be wondering why I am in such a hurry to get everyone there." Called, actually I don¡¯t want to, it¡¯s just that the higher up suppressed the task, I couldn¡¯t bear it, so I had to call you all together to discuss and discuss.¡±
"What is it that you are so anxious about?" The big stupid man behind couldn't help asking.
The fourth master coughed a few times and said: "I won't hide it from everyone. Yesterday afternoon, Mayi Town sent a messenger to inform us that we will collect more taxes and ask the first seven villages to collect them as soon as possible. If they pay it within half a month, it will be fine." That's all, if the payment is not complete, the whole village, men, women and children will suffer."
