  Du Xuanda didn't deny it, he acquiesced, looked at Zhang Deming and said, "Fellow Daoist, are you familiar with Tianji Pavilion?"

   "Hehe, I'm not familiar with it, but I heard that the fetters of Tianjidongtian are unique, and they are too deeply involved, and they are very easy to influence each other.

  Therefore, there are very few male and female groups to form bonds, and before Sixiang, the road has not been completely finalized, and few groups are formed to avoid mutual influence.

  Two fellow daoists occupy both, so the relationship is extraordinary, so what else is there besides the daoist companion? Zhang Deming replied with a smile.

   "Really? But Du always feels inexplicably familiar with fellow Taoist." Du Xuanda said, in fact, he thinks that similarity is an accurate description.

  Zhang Deming glanced at Du Xuanda without changing his expression, and said, "Perhaps...it's because Pindao is so handsome?"

  Zhang Deming's sudden words caught Du Xuanda completely off guard and almost stumbled. He never expected him to reply like this.

  The two were silent for a while, Du Xuanda understood Zhang Deming's meaning, changed the subject and continued: "Since Fellow Daoist is a disciple of Quanqing Temple, he should be going out of the mountain now, why don't we go together?"

  Zhang Deming replied with a smile: "That's exactly what I mean."

  After speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled, and then quickly flew through the forest. Du Chuchu, who was dressed in black, seemed to be unusually quiet, appeared for a moment, and then disappeared again.

  He was worried about not having a map, and he didn't know how many fights and how much time he would waste this way.

   And Du Xuanda was also out of caution, it was better for the three of them to go together than the two of them alone.

  ······

  After getting together with Du Xuanda, things went very smoothly.

   It can be seen that this guy is not only because he came in once, but also because he has a very detailed map. Therefore, the three of them hurried on the road for half a month, and the surrounding monsters began to gradually weaken.

  Zhang Deming knew that they had probably left the middle depth of the Hengduan Mountains and arrived at the periphery.

  However, unlike the mountain area behind Tianlingmen, this place has not experienced any catastrophe, and there are even more monsters than the middle depth.

  But the strength is not strong, there are apprentices and monsters in the Taiji period everywhere, and those above Liangyi can already be kings here. As for the three-talented monsters in this area, it is very rare to exist.

  Both Zhang Deming and Du Xuanda are very 'cautious' people. Therefore, two days later, the two proceeded cautiously again, and after the strength of the monsters further decreased, the two were completely sure that they had entered the outer area.

  The two had a preliminary exchange, and began to fly blatantly in the sky. With their current cultivation base, even if a three-talented demon king came, it would be resolved in minutes.

  Thus, after the three of them flew on the road, after a few more days, the trees began to thin out, slowly turning into low bushes, and in the barren mountains and jungles, occasionally a little bit of human habitation could be seen.

  Especially when they saw the crowd, the two heaved a sigh of relief at the same time, which indicated that they had left the Hengduan Mountains.

  Du Xuanda flipped his hands and took out a small round bead. A complete map was projected on the bead. After looking at it for a while, he said, "This should be the Yuezhou area!"

  Zhang Deming nodded, flipped his hands and took out his book and map to have a look. After more than half a month, this map is his biggest gain.

   Now he already has a detailed map of Hongmeng Holy Land, it is no longer an outline, and of course the so-called detailed map is also compared with before.

   It is definitely not as good as the Hongmeng area, at most it is better than the ones bought on the street. After all, it is a gift from Du Xuanda, so there must be only some of it. The confidential things have been excluded, but it is already very good.

  Zhang Deming looked at the map, and Li Zhengkun's memory ball flickered in his head. Combined with the memory information, he said, "Well, that's right, it is indeed Yuezhou. What is Daoist Du going to do next? Are you going back to Tianji Pavilion directly?"

   Du Xuanda looked at the map, shook his head and said: "This is not far from Qingzhou, I plan to go to Qingzhou Herring City, and then consider going back to the sect. Li Daoyou, how about you?"

  Zhang Deming replied with a smile: "Coincidentally, I also plan to go to Herring City, and then I will consider going to Quanqing Guan to report.

   After all, it has been a long time since I entered the mountain this time, and I have harvested some medicinal materials. There are several states around here, and Qingzhou Herring City is the most prosperous. "

  Du Xuanda hesitated and said, "Which one?"

   "Yes!" Zhang Deming replied.

  After speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled, turned into streamers again, and headed towards Qingzhou.

  Among the three, even Du Chuchu is only at the peak of the three talents, but because the other party is considered a half-speed repairer, his speed is also very fast.

  After leaving the Hengduan Mountains, they completely lost their scruples and flew at full speed at high altitude. In less than a day, the two of them crossed Yuezhou and came to Qingzhou Herring City.

  Herring City is somewhat similar to Huayue City. It belongs to the city of casual cultivators, and because it is located at the junction of Tianji Pavilion and Sanqingguan site, there are many casual cultivators and it is extremely prosperous.

  Different from Huayue City, the Herring City is not controlled by casual cultivators, but a ten thousand-year-old clan—the Herring Clan.

  Under the deliberate management of this family for generations, Herring City is even more prosperous than the surrounding cities of cultivators built by their own families, and has the tendency of a trading center.

   It is mainly the conditions of the land, coupled with the management of the family for generations, that have created such a prosperous city of practitioners.

  There are many mortals here, but there are very few real mortals. After a long period of development, most of the mortals here are descendants of practitioners.

   Because of this, there are many people with spiritual roots, and several people around them come to the door. They set up assessments here all the year round to obtain disciples. Not only did the city not decline due to the withdrawal of excellent blood, but it added more firewood for prosperity to the city.

  Even because it was too prosperous, the whole city started a ring construction like a modern city, divided into several rings.

  Especially with the influx of foreign information these years, the Herrings have seen a lot of excellent things in modern cities, and quietly borrowed them for use.

  So when Zhang Deming and Du Xuanda flew into Herring City and entered the so-called second ring road, Zhang Deming was stunned for a moment.

   I saw high-rise buildings connecting to the sky, virtual light curtains flickering like neon lights, and even various huge light curtains hanging in the air like billboards.

  Over the streets, countless flying artifacts and flying mounts are flying like waterways in special streamlined passages.

  Looking at this sci-fi city, Zhang Deming was stunned for a moment, his pupils dilated.

   "Why, Li Daoyou hasn't been to Herring City?" Du Xuanda sensed that Zhang Deming stopped, turned his head to see his expression, and asked in surprise.

  Zhang Deming shook his head slightly, and said: "I have been here before, but that was 80 years ago. I have been practicing in Taoist temples for the past few years, and I rarely go out, and I closed a closed door halfway.

   It's unimaginable, after less than a hundred years, this Herring City has become so old that I can't even recognize it! "

  Du Xuanda heard the words, and suddenly said: "No, there was no change before, maybe forty or fifty years ago, after the herring clan replaced a junior as the city lord, it started to change every year.

  In less than forty years, it is said that it is an extraterritorial concept for reference that turned this Herring City into what it is today.

   But the ridiculous thing is that every person from outside the region, seeing the reaction of this city, is more surprised and surprised than me, and stays in this city with all kinds of mentality of stealing lessons.

   So much so that there are slightly more people from outside the territory living in this city than in the Hongmeng Spiritual City outside the Hongmeng Holy Land. Don't you think this is funny? "

  Zhang Deming froze slightly when he heard the words, what is this? The pirates killed the genuine ones and surpassed the genuine ones, so they want the genuine ones to learn?

   "Hehe, it's really interesting!" Zhang Deming replied with a smile.

   "However, this city is good, but it is only suitable for a city, and the atmosphere of the world is too heavy, which is not conducive to practice.

  Especially the disguised extension of this formation, the intrusion of Tianyu's various entertainment Dao concepts, has little effect on those of us who have achieved success in cultivating the Dao and have a stable Dao heart.

   Look at it occasionally, and you can relax. But for those juniors below, especially those who have just entered the Tao, the influence is a bit too great.

  I heard that in the past twenty years or so, all the disciples who have been recruited from this city are restless, and some of them can't even stay in the gate.

  The year before last, my sect accepted a fairy root disciple in this city with a full ninety-six points of aptitude. However, after two years of careful cultivation by the second uncle's lineage, this disposition has not yet been corrected.

  This is still a six-year-old baby, and his character has not been completely finalized. If it was discovered in later years, even the fairy roots would be too heavily infected by this worldly aura, and they would not be able to go far.

  Because of this matter, several major sects have responded to the herring clan, and their clan has also been devastated by it recently. So, there are always pros and cons to everything.

   Therefore, this city is within the scope of my Tianji Pavilion, and now it is the only one, and there is no one to follow. "

  Hearing this, Zhang Deming couldn't help but think of the days when he first traveled here in his previous life, when he had no mobile phone, no computer, no Internet, and even no TV.

  That was not ordinary pain. If it wasn't for the eight years of life in the small mountain village, which made him a little calmer, he might have been thrown out after entering Xiaoqingshan.

  He is still an adult, for these babies...

  The pace of life of ascetics is very slow. If you can't experience fun from it, then it can't be described as boring.

  And everyone also pays attention to a firm and pure Taoism, and Zhang Deming is rare.

   "Let me just say, why our Luming Temple is not too far away from here, why didn't we see the nearby Fangshi to learn from here, so the red dust in this city is so poisonous?" Zhang Deming suddenly said.

   "It's not just that it's heavy, you haven't seen the comparison. The disciples who have been taken back over the years, the ones in other cities are all fine, and they get used to it in a month or so at most.

  Those recruited by this city, even handymen with not-so-talented talents, clamored to go down the mountain. You must know how difficult it is for them to enter the door if they are not talented. " Du Xuanda said.

  Zhang Deming smiled, the feeling in his heart has been absorbed a lot at this moment, he looked at the bottom, and said: "Let's go, it seems that someone is here?"

  In the whole city, especially after the second ring road, although there are many people and things flying in the sky, most of them are flying in the passages with faint streamers, which are obviously planned routes.

  Zhang Deming and the others are carelessly floating in the low-end of many buildings, which is still very eye-catching.

  Following Zhang Deming's words, I saw the two figures below quickly approaching.

   It looks like two very handsome young men, but in Zhang Deming's eyes, the other two are actually two mermaids.

   This is the Herring Clan, the descendants of the ancient spirit fish—the Green Back Spirit Arowana, which was transformed into the form of the human race. Strictly speaking, they are sub-human races.

  Hongmeng's sub-races, 80 to 90% come from this way. It is rumored that the "Liao Zhai" series of love between transvestites was still very popular. I don't know when it started, but it became less popular.

  Although such a combination is not uncommon nowadays, no powerful sub-human family has been born for thousands of years.

  Zhang Deming thinks that some people above should control it intentionally.

  However, due to the long time, the Herring Clan has almost no real mermaid origin, but the breath can still see the shape of a mermaid.

  So it’s not wrong to say that they are human races, but they have a special bloodline and are close to water magic.

  After the two approached Zhang Deming and the others, they noticed that Zhang Deming and the others had deep cultivation bases. They were all taken aback, and immediately saluted: "Qingke and Qingyu, the law enforcement team of Herring City, have seen you seniors."

  Zhang Deming nodded, Du Xuanda ignored the two of them at all, looked at Zhang Deming and said: "Li Daoyou, let's go to Herring Street, after shopping, Pindao has to go back to the Zongmen to see the casualties this time.

  This time, the eighth uncle spread the hexagram to the six disciples, so many people went there, and the casualties were unknown. "

  Hearing this, Zhang Deming nodded and said, "Let's go, I also have a lot of things to deal with."

   While speaking, the two flew towards the central area of ​​the first ring.

   Seeing this, the two law enforcement members paused for a moment. After hesitating, they took out a strange magic weapon and inspired it.

  A faint red glow flew out from the magic weapon, surrounding Zhang Deming and the two of them.

  Du Xuanda and Du Chuchu didn't respond to this, as if they had expected it.

  Zhang Deming looked at the red glow around him in surprise. This thing seems to be a very rudimentary phantom array? But the effect is just noticeable.

   "Hehe, this is also based on the patrol car of the law enforcement team outside the territory. It is probably used to mark us in case some people who don't have long eyes will collide with us!" Du Xuanda explained with a smile, obviously not the first time.

  ‘Uh, patrol car? police car? Is this a police light? So now they are police cars driving the way? '

  ‘Ha, you are really good, you can still do this, is this considered a copycat? ’ Zhang Deming became even more curious about the herring city lord in his thoughts.

  Qing Yu and Qing Barley breathed a sigh of relief after watching Zhang Deming and the others disappear.

   "Uncle, why are so many adults coming to our city these days?" Qing Barley looked at Qing Yu with a puzzled expression on his face.

  Although their Herring City is prosperous, but during the overhaul of the Four Elephants period, they don't see many in a year, and there are even fewer such ostentatious strange faces.

  But in the past few days, I can see one or two people almost every day. It seems that all the big shots around me seem to come here for a market or a meeting.

   "Probably has something to do with the news from the Tianji Pavilion a few days ago!" Qingyu replied.

   "What news?" Qing Barley asked curiously.

   "Why do you ask so many questions? Don't talk about your little cultivation. It's the peak Liangyi overhaul like Uncle San. Everyone in the clan says that you are not qualified to participate. Let's just be honest and patrol the law enforcement team!"

  While speaking, Qingyu flew down with a little loneliness.

  Qing Barley was also a little dazed. The changes in Herring City changed the vision of these low-level monks, but they also understood their own humbleness, especially the desolation that the road ahead was already visible.

  Sometimes, ignorance is really a blessing!

  ······

   Herring City is built along the river, and it is backed by the Qinglong River. And the closer it is to the Qinglong River, the more it belongs to the core.

   Therefore, it is not accurate to say that the first and second rings of Herring City, because it only has a half ring, and there is no city on the other side of the river.

   After a while, the three of Zhang Deming came to the inner city on the first ring road, and stopped in the only area without high-rise buildings, only antique.

  Here is Herring Street, the most prosperous market in Herring City. The whole street is not only full of monks, but also Tai Chi monks can't get in without any heels. Only those who have cultivated above Liangyi can enter without restriction.

  The entire block has countless shops, all kinds of shops, everything you need.

  Most of Hongmeng's major business alliances have registrations here. It can be said that this street represents a certain mid-to-high-end market for Hongmeng. Compared with this place, the main street of Tianling City is simply low.

  After Zhang Deming entered here, he was a little surprised to see the super-sci-fi giant center, inlaid with a big old street, and the two extreme transformations.

Ok? this is······

  Just entering the street, looking at Zhang Deming who was around, he paused slightly.

  Du Xuanda looked at Zhang Deming suspiciously, and said, "Li Daoyou, haven't you been here before?"

  Zhang Deming smiled, looked at the attic block with the highest five or six floors, and said: "Oh, I just didn't expect the outside to become like this, but this city has not changed much."

   "Hehe, here is not a herring clan that can change at will!" Du Xuanda said with a smile.

  After tens of thousands of years of development, Herring City has become so prosperous that it does not belong to the Herring Clan at all, it belongs to the Hongmeng families.

  Zhang Deming nodded and said: "If that's the case, let's say goodbye, and we will see each other again!"

  Sudden farewell, Du Xuanda was slightly stunned, looked at Zhang Deming, and said: "Then say goodbye, I hope there will be fate!"

  After speaking, the two saluted, and Zhang Deming stepped into another block.

   Du Chuchu appeared behind Du Xuanda, and Du Xuanda said without turning his head, "What did you see?"

  Du Chuchu gave Du Xuanda a cold look, and said, "You ask me?"

  Du Xuanda replied in an explanatory manner: "Spiritual awareness is a warning, I dare not count him. I have encountered this situation twice in these years, but this person gave me an inexplicable similarity, but I don't know the reason."

  Du Chuchu glanced at Du Xuanda again, pondered for a moment this time, and said seriously: "He smells so good!"

   "Huh???" Du Xuanda glanced at Du Chuchu blankly, not connected to the daughter-in-law's brain circuit.

   "It smells as good as you, and it always makes me want to get close. But this feeling was strengthened because of your bondage. He... has no reason at all."

  Du Chuchu gradually frowned while speaking, with a puzzled and tangled expression, as if she didn't understand very well.

   "If that's the case, isn't it my illusion? Does fellow Daoist Li look a little like me? But why?" Du Xuanda also frowned and remained silent.

  ······

  After Zhang Deming left Du Xuanda and the other two, he quickly changed a few streets, and after making sure no one was following him, he removed the blessing of the spirit nurturing technique on his body without leaving a trace, and his breath slowly changed back to the Sancai stage.

   During the half-month journey, he has maintained his Sixiang cultivation. Even though there was not much fighting because of the map and the magic stick to lead the way, it consumed more than half of his spiritual crystals, which was a loss to him.

  If it wasn't because Du Xuanda had a map and was able to bring him out and avoid fighting, he would have been separated from the opponent a long time ago.

  After Zhang Deming's aura changed back to Sancai, and after changing two blocks again, he walked inwardly while walking, and came to the spirit cultivation space.

  Looking at the monitoring elves, Zhang Deming issued an order: "Search for members of the alliance, limited range: Qingzhou."

  "Search criteria generated, searching..."

   "A total of 769 enlightened people were searched, all of whom are reserve members of the alliance, including one signed member and 768 unsigned members. Signed by: Du Xuanda!"

  ' Sure enough! '

  He just entered this block, and instantly sensed several enlightened people.

  ‘It is obviously impossible for so many Taoists to be passed down because of the spirit cultivation beads sold in the shops around Tianlingmen. With so many people showing a tendency to concentrate, there is only one possibility. '

   "Inquire, which member of the alliance opened the dark blue store here? How long has it been open, and how did it come here?" Zhang Deming said.

   As soon as he finished speaking, the monitoring elf immediately replied to the message.

   "This is the monitoring thread established by you, the mastermind. It is the shop opened by Tonghou, the only council member in the alliance who has been monitored 24 hours a day in the 2.0 era.

  The opening time was four years ago, in the era of Monitor Elves 2.0, during the second session of the Two Realms Exchange Conference, and the target was transmitted to this city through a portable fixed-point transmission array.

  After half a month, a deep blue branch was opened at 324 Herring 3rd Street. Up to now, it has been more than four years since Yu Lingzhu was sold.

  The following are all the detailed monitoring photos of Tong Hou in the past four years. Does the mastermind need to check carefully? "

  Zhang Deming was slightly taken aback, Tonghou?

   Is this guy from Qingzhou?

   No wonder they are so rich, so they still have a store here, so they can’t be the second generation, right?

  Well, the mess is so miserable, even if it is a second generation, it is estimated that it is a dilapidated second generation.

   "No, according to your calculation, just sort out a brief information and give it to me."

  Although the monitoring elves don't have emotions yet, their intelligence has reached the initial stage of independent thinking. The last time they took the initiative to provide choices, it can explain a lot of things.

  Artificial intelligence, no matter how strong or weak it is, it is impossible for him to think automatically and actively provide choices without the birth of life.

   Therefore, such data collation should not be difficult for it.

   "Okay mastermind, in the process of establishing a task..."

   "The task is established, the estimated time is 37 seconds!"
