Astral Apostle

  Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zhou Jing flew across the river and landed on the shore. He threw the shivering Kong Bao on the ground and collected his mana.

   Twenty or thirty villagers all fell to the ground with excitement on their faces and exclaimed immortals.

   Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhou Jing couldn't help feeling emotional.

   Sure enough, this wind-calling technique is too easy to pretend to be a ghost in this world.

   But you only need to confuse others, let them think that he has supernatural powers, and you don't have to call yourself a **** for the time being... The tone is too high, it is difficult to control, it is better to leave room for others to imagine.

   Zhou Jing thought of this, raised his palms, smiled and said: "Everyone, please get up, I am not an immortal who went down to earth that day, just a mountain alchemist, you don't need to worship me."

   Hearing this, many villagers got up hesitantly and looked at Zhou Jing with courage.

   Seeing this close, everyone was startled immediately, only to think that Zhou Jing was very strange, with a high nose and deep eyes, skin as white as jade, short hair with black and brown, and he did not look like an ordinary person.

  Many villagers hurriedly lowered their heads again, not daring to look at them, and were in awe, but they didn’t feel strange in their hearts.

  ——The aliens have different appearances, and they are worthy of being among the gods.

   Zhou Jing saw that the crowd did not dare to speak, so he took the initiative to say:

"Xialing Fengzi is an outsider. He has been practicing in the mountains for a long time, and he does not walk in the world. Recently, he has been very quiet and thoughtful. When I met this boatman, he wanted to kill me in the river, but I took it, do you know the origin of this person?"

   Many villagers dared not answer when they heard the question from the expert who was suspected of being an immortal.

   An old man who looked like a village chief came out and said with sincerity and fear:

"This person is called Kong Bao, and he is a strongman in the green forest nearby. He often pretends to be a boatman, carrying guests to and from the two sides of the strait. When he reaches the river, he robs money and kills his life. The people of several fishing villages around here know this person. It's just that this person is proficient in martial arts, outstanding in water, and skillful, so I can't help it. Besides, this Kong Bao usually only harms travelers from other places. If he doesn't come to disturb me, I will let him go. Now this thief has been caught by the Dragon King. Now, it is his retribution full of evil."

   Zhou Jing listened normally at first, but he couldn't help laughing at the last sentence, saying:

   "Old man, I said, I'm not an immortal, let alone that Dragon King. You can call me Lingfengzi or a Taoist priest."

   "Understood, I understand! Long... The Taoist priest asked me to keep it in my heart."

  The village chief nodded again and again, but he was even more certain in his heart that he only felt that Lord Long was visiting privately in a micro-service, so he didn't want to be pointed out.

   Zhou Jing didn't insist either. He looked at Kong Bao, pondered for a few seconds, and then said:

   "Since he's a water pirate who walks alone, you should tie him up and take him to an official."

  Kong Bao hurriedly rolled over and knelt down, shouting, "Grandpa Daoist! I won't dare again in the future! I am willing to surrender and serve you in the future!"

   "...what beautiful things do you want?"

   Zhou Jing was speechless, and pointed to stab Kong Bao's neck heavily, directly knocking him out.

  Apostle Bill No. 3 now has a physical fitness of 25 points, which is only a little weaker than Chen Feng's initial physical fitness. In the current standard of this world, he is also a "superior person", and his strength is not small.

  I currently want Bill to take the upper-level route, and it would be troublesome to bring this person by my side.

   Besides, he just detected the Kong Bao attribute, and his martial arts skills are not high. Among the green forest heroes that Chen Feng knew, his skills were not ranked at all.

  If you assume that Lu Yunzhao's force value is 90, this Kong Bao is in his early 70s at most, not very powerful, and it's okay to bully ordinary people.

   "Thank you, Taoist priest, for waiting for me to get rid of this harm."

  Many villagers quickly thanked them, stepped forward boldly, and tied Kong Bao tightly with ropes.

   Zhou Jing ignored the matter, turned the conversation around, and carefully asked these locals about the geographical situation in the vicinity.

  Everyone was always ready to answer any questions, and quickly explained the situation nearby.

  This place is only three or four days' journey away from Ningtianfu. Down the river, you can reach the port in the west of Ningtianfu, called Ximendu. It is one of the bustling water transportation terminals in Ningtianfu and a big bay on the Chunshan River.

  There are thousands of boats crossing the river, sailing like clouds, and it is very lively.

   Zhou Jing's eyes flashed and he had an idea.

'Since you want to go the route of pretending to be a ghost, you don't have to use the idea of ​​slowly accumulating fame, it is better to go big... I want to become famous in Ningtian Mansion and take the upper-level route, then it is best to quickly hook up with the big families in the city and noble families, such as To come up with a hot spot that can spread all over the city in a short period of time, so there must be enough witnesses... Since that Ningtianfu ferry is so lively every day, I go there to do a wave of things, no doubt, it will be twice the result with half the effort. ’

   Zhou Jing felt more and more feasible.

   He directly made up a rumor that caused a sensation in the whole city, and let those upper-level people know his "Godman", so he took the initiative to visit and invite him to be a guest... This is definitely better than going to the door to cheat.

   This is marketing yourself!

   But at the beginning, you can take the initiative to hook up with a big family and ask the other party to help solve trivial problems such as lack of identity proof, which is convenient and easy to use.

   After getting the information he wanted, Zhou Jing stopped delaying and left the village immediately, heading towards the West Gate of Ningtian Mansion.

   After he left, many villagers were still immersed in the experience of encountering immortals today.

   There are even people who set up a simple incense table directly at home to worship this "Dragon King".

   In addition, the villager did not delay, and several people escorted Kong Bao to the county seat.

  …

  Three days passed in a flash.

   Zhou Jing has been hurrying along the river.

  Although he is penniless, he has the ability to analyze items, and he is not afraid of being hungry in the wild. Just picking some fruits is enough to feed his stomach. You can also use the wind to blow down birds and beat the teeth.

   He was not idle on the road, and he went to analyze and identify any plants he came across, and became familiar with the plants and herbs in this world.

  As we progressed, the road became wider and wider, the number of pedestrians gradually increased, and boats began to appear frequently on the river.

   Zhou Jing walked along the road and finally saw the outline of Ningtian Mansion.

   This is a city where dragons and tigers dominate. It is based on the big river in front of it, and it is flanked by Zhongling.

   Not far from the river is Ximen Ferry. It looks like a big lake. There are hundreds of boats, large and small, such as merchant ships and cargo ships as tall as buildings, and small fishermen's boats that can only take three or four people.

   Across the distance, you can also hear the noise of the ferry terminal, a bustling scene.

   "Sure enough, it's bustling, and it's many times more lively than the Anlin Mansion."

   Zhou Jing was overjoyed.

   He did not enter the city, avoiding pedestrians, following the wild forest **** beside the road, all the way to the bank of the river, along the highly parallel water surface, looking towards the ferry.

   "Whether it can scare the entire Ningtian Mansion depends on this wave..."

   Zhou Jing thought about it in his heart, and sorted out his appearance and appearance through the reflection on the water. Only then did he settle down and act.

at the same time.

  A merchant ship was sailing on the river, getting closer and closer to Ximen Ferry.

   A middle-aged man in Chinese clothes with white temples stood on the bow of the boat, looking at Ningtianfu in the distance, with a worried expression on his face.

  Beside him, there was a young man with vaguely similar features, wearing a light blue scribe robe, and spoke generously to comfort him:

   "Don't worry, Daddy, we have invited Doctor Zhang, and the old lady will definitely be able to cure the disease."

   The middle-aged man in Chinese clothing sighed:

"I have searched for famous doctors in Ningtian Prefecture, but no one knows about the old lady's disease. If Zhang Jinduan, who has a great reputation in Xinglin, lives up to his name, and can cure the old lady's strange disease, it is not in vain for me to ask for it in person... …Otherwise, when the old lady falls, my Ye family will be without a pillar, and 80% will be in chaos, and it will not be a day or two for the other houses to covet the position of the head of the family.”

   This middle-aged man's name is Ye Shunzhong, who is in charge of Ning Tian's Ye family's house. The young man next to him is Ye Yingguang, the son of Ye Shunzhong.

  Ning Tianye's family is a wealthy businessman in the Jiangchun area. Their business spreads across several states and their wealth is huge. They are famous throughout the south.

   In this Ningtian Mansion, the Ye family is known to everyone. In the mouths of good deeds in the market, the Ye family competes with two other rich and wealthy families in the city for the title of "Ningtian's richest man". Gu Qi

   But three months ago, the old lady in charge of the Ye family fell ill, and the Ye family paid a lot of money to hire a doctor for outpatient treatment.

  The wealth and silk moved people's hearts. Almost all the people in the city temporarily left the plain-headed people who came to see a doctor to gather at the Ye family for consultation. They almost broke the threshold of the Ye family, but in the end, no one knew what the old lady Ye had.

   This matter also spread around the city, and the entire Ningtian Mansion knew that Mrs. Ye had a strange disease that no one knew about, and it became a topic of discussion.

   Ye Shunzhong was in charge of the big house and was trained as a successor early on. After the old lady fell ill, his health was not getting better day by day. He has been anxiously looking for famous doctors.

Not long ago, he learned that Zhang Jinduan, one of the three famous doctors in the legend of Xinglin, happened to be traveling to Jiangchun, so he hurriedly went to invite him to Ningtian Mansion to treat old lady Ye. His last hope.

   At this moment, an old man in green robe with a medicine box walked out of the cabin and saw the Ye family and his son, so he walked over.

   As soon as he saw this person, Ye Shunzhong immediately saluted and said:

   "Doctor Zhang, Ningtian Mansion is about to arrive. If my grandfather can be cured, the whole Ye family will be grateful for Dr. Zhang's kindness."

   "Brother Ye doesn't have to do this, the old man will do his best."

   The old man in green robe hurriedly bowed his hands in return. He was Zhang Jinduan, known as one of the three famous doctors of Xinglin.

   The two talked politely, and the Ye family merchant ship slowly moored into Ximendu.

   At this moment, countless boats on the river suddenly sounded a burst of uproar, resounding through the sky.

   Ye Shunzhong looked at the sound and was slightly taken aback.

  I saw hundreds of boats moored in front of the ferry, countless boatmen running, gathered on the side of the boat, pointing in the direction of their Ye family merchant ships and exclaiming.

The content of the    shouts drifted along with the river wind, intermittent and not clear enough, only vaguely heard words such as "immortal", "dragon king", and "river god".

"What happened?"

   Ye Shunzhong was puzzled, and simply followed the direction pointed by the sailors of the countless ships ahead and looked back.

   Seeing this, his entire body was struck by lightning, his jaw almost dislocated, and he was suddenly stunned.

   On the river not far away, there was a man in a black robe stepping on the water, making ripples every step of the way, as if he were walking in a leisurely court.

   "This...isn't this a fairy?!"

   Ye Shunzhong and the three were heartbroken, unable to look away.

  Under the stunned gazes of countless people in the ferry, this figure stepped on the river!

   The demeanor is free and easy, like a fairy strolling along the river, step by step to the ferry.

   At this moment, it seems that all the boats on the river have disappeared, and only this person is left in the world, like a lonely bird.

   Countless people at the ferry were so shocked that they stood there dumbfounded, staring at the person who stepped on the river.

   At this moment, this figure happened to walk to the side of the Ye family merchant ship, and the distance was quite close. From the ship, he could already overlook the person's appearance.

   Ye Shunzhong was jolted and came back to his senses. Without a word, he bowed and saluted on the boat, respectfully, and said excitedly:

   "I'm so lucky to be able to see Xianyan! Xianjia is on top, please accept my worship!"

   Zhou Jing heard someone talking, turned his head to look up at the boat next to him, and saw Ye Shunzhong, who was looking at the side of the boat, at a glance, and he looked like a wealthy family.

   His heart moved, and he suddenly drove a gust of wind and rose into the air.

  Under everyone's attention, he flew to the Ye family merchant ship.

   Ye Shunzhong and the others were taken aback, and they hurriedly bowed down, shouting in a rage that they had seen immortals.

   "It's just some magical means, don't make a fuss, I'm not an immortal, you don't need to do this big gift."

   Zhou Jing took it lightly and opened his mouth at will.

   These people are dressed in gorgeous clothes, and they are either rich or expensive. This time, he is not as amiable as facing the rural villager, but he has a good posture, and he has the calm demeanor of a master hermit.

   Hearing that, Ye Shunzhong and others dared to straighten their waists, and they all saw Zhou Jing's strange appearance, and they were surprised, but did not dare to reveal the slightest.

   Zhou Jing put his hands on his back, looked at Ye Shunzhong, who was in the lead, and asked:

   "Who are you?"

   Ye Shunzhong didn't know what Zhou Jing meant, so he didn't dare to neglect him, so he took courage and bowed his hands in salute, saying:

   "In Xia Ye Shunzhong, when I saw the master's immortal methods, I was instantly moved, unable to restrain myself, and couldn't help but speak... I wonder if I can know the master's name?"

   "Under Lingfengzi."

   Zhou Jing reported a pseudonym, then pretended to be unpredictable, and said slowly:

   "Since you have the guts to talk to me, I will give you a karma."

   Ye Shunzhong was stunned for a moment, and suddenly overjoyed.

   This immortal-like figure actually said that he wanted to give him the dharma? Could it be that, as the folk fairy tales say, when you meet a god, you have to give it a chance? !

   Without waiting for Ye Shunzhong to inquire, Zhou Jing pretended to be indifferent and said:

   "I'm going to stay in Ningtian Mansion for some time, looking for where the secret is. Since I have a fate, I'll stay at your house temporarily, and you will handle some trivial matters for me... This fate, do you want it or not?"

   This is a shameless thief, it is equivalent to catching a big head, not only asking people to spend money to entertain you, but also saying that this opportunity is rewarded to the other party...

   But Zhou Jing's face was not red and his heart was not beating.

   If an ordinary person said that, he might be beaten.

   However, just now, he showed his magic tricks and grabbed the lead, and he had already quelled the wealthy family in this boat. Now this posturing makes people even more uncertain about his background.

   Also, he's not completely nonsense.

   He deliberately staged a show of "Come from the River" at the lively ferry. With so many witnesses, his reputation must spread throughout Ningtianfu in a very short period of time.

  A mysterious person who is suspected to be a fairy, lives in this person's house, then in the cultural background of the Daxia Dynasty, it can bring this person a lot of intangible value such as prestige and influence.

   Zhou Jing deliberately boarded the boat, intending to hook up with a wealthy household first, and at the same time to solve his identity problem, he also used this as a springboard to meet more dignitaries and gain a firm foothold in the city.

   If he succeeds, this person will also be able to get countless benefits, and then the "predestination method" mentioned today will come true.

   Ye Shunzhong really liked this, and hurriedly agreed after hearing this:

   "It is an honor for my Ye family to be willing to live in my Ye family temporarily!"

   He only felt that this person who claimed to be Lingfengzi was extremely mysterious. Moreover, the so-called "searching for heaven's secrets" that this person veiled revealed also made him very interested and itchy, but he didn't dare to interrogate the other party, so he could only hold back his thoughts for a while.

   Ye Shunzhong is not without doubts, but when he thinks of the scene of Zhou Jing walking on the river and rising from the wind just now, he feels that it is not as good as Ning Xin.

   promised to spend some money at most, even if this person is a liar, what if one more person eats and drinks. Not to mention one person, even if a hundred people came to eat and drink for free, he didn't even blink his eyes.

   There is not much else in his Ye family, except for a lot of money!

   If this person really has a great background, he will be lucky, and he will definitely regret the practice of pushing the opportunity out now.

   Ye Shunzhong calculated very clearly, and naturally he would not reject Zhou Jing's seemingly excessive demands.

   Upon seeing this, the corners of Zhou Jing's mouth twitched, but then disappeared.

   He deliberately didn't respond with any thanks, but just gave a non-salty hum, and said slowly:

   "It's so good. Before the ship has entered the port, tell me about your Ye family."
