Chapter 274: Departing Early to Save Face
Zheng Qiu showed an apologetic smile: "Haha, I'm sorry, I'm watching Qian Yunzong prepare for the grand ceremony at Yuanwufeng.
Then I met an old man who has researched medicinal materials, and I forgot the time while chatting. "
The commander nodded to show his understanding: "Boss Zheng is really passionate about medicinal materials, no wonder he can manage the elixir supermarket so well.
It's getting late, Boss Zheng remembers to go to bed early, recharge his energy and wait for the grand ceremony to begin. "
Zheng Qiu cupped his hands in thanks: "That's natural, I won't let the city lord down."
For the next four days, Zheng Qiu didn't run around anymore.
He nestled in the room of the Zixu Building, recovering the power of the "wood spirit" absorbed by the green grass, and studying the spells of the knife-blocking clay figurines found in the Fangcao Building.
Of course, during this period of time, he had been to Qunxiong Peak in the east, looking for Kanchi, Brother Roaring and others.
The living environment of Qunxiong Peak is slightly worse than that of South Yingke Peak, the rooms are one-third smaller and there are no teahouses.
But the people in the Great Wilderness Elixir Supermarket are very satisfied with this, no matter how bad it is, it is better than the living environment in Great Wilderness.
When everyone saw Boss Zheng coming, they were all very excited, talking about what they had seen and heard, and describing the novel and interesting places about Qian Yunzong.
However, Zheng Qiu looked around, but did not see Yunyou and Zheng Zhisong, so he asked Kanchi.
Kanchi told him that after Miss Yun and her guards arrived at Qianyunzong, they left Qunxiong Peak and disappeared.
She was worried at first, but the guards came back the next day.
She said that Miss Yun didn't want to live in Qunxiong Peak, and moved to Yingke Peak with better conditions. They will come back to walk with everyone when Qianyun's registration starts.
Brother Roaring came over to make a fuss, saying that the Yun family is rich and powerful, and they must have spent money to enjoy themselves. When Boss Zheng is as rich as the enemy, he will also bring them to enjoy himself.
Zheng Qiu smiled and agreed, he knew in his heart that Yunyou and Zheng Zhisong must have gone deep into Qianyunzong to find people from the sect.
Before he left Qunxiong Peak, he finally told everyone that they should not forget his request and look for various medicinal seeds to buy.
Four days passed in a blink of an eye, and Ganyun Dianshu was finally about to start.
In the early morning, when it was still dark, the commander knocked on the doors of each room, telling everyone to gather at the gate of Zixu Building.
Zheng Qiu put on the robe and went downstairs on the dry ladder. The green moiré pattern on the robe has been washed off by him, leaving no trace.
When he came to the door, he found that some sects had already assembled, and the lights of lamp stones were lit up in the crowd, and the voices of greeting his disciples came and went.
"Boss Zheng, come here quickly!" A commander saw him and shouted, shaking his arms.
Zheng Qiu stopped looking around, and walked into the team in Dahuang Gucheng.
Representatives of the major forces in the Great Wilderness and Gucheng, as well as their entourages, arrived one after another, while the commanders were busy counting the number of people.
After a while, Lin Minghao came down from the luxurious residence on the roof of Zixu Building, walked to the front of the crowd and asked, "Is everyone here?"
"Back to the city lord, everything is here!"
"Okay, start as soon as possible, don't delay on the road."
The commander nodded and accepted the order, turned around and urged everyone to leave quickly,
Two of them ran to the front to lead the way, and kept yelling at the sects blocking the way, telling them to get out of the way.
While following the team, Zheng Qiu asked Qing Youcai: "It's not even dawn yet, why are you in such a hurry to start? Could it be that you're late and can't attend the grand ceremony?"
Qing Youcai leaned over and replied in a low voice, "Isn't it just to hide from the other nine sects?"
"Hide from the other nine sects? Why?"
"For face."
"face?"
Zheng Qiu was even more confused. Does face have anything to do with going early and going late?
Seeing that Zheng Qiu didn't understand, a shop owner next to him explained: "On the first day of Ganyun's bookkeeping, there will be a grand celebration."
The boss stretched out his hand and drew two circles: "The celebration is a circular area, usually held in the arena used for fighting.
The big sects and sects sit inside, while the small sects and solitary practitioners can only stand outside and watch from a distance. "
The shop owner explained in detail that since it is to watch the celebration, there are good and bad places to watch, and a good place to watch represents the face of the sect in Yunxiu Continent.
The Great Wilderness City ranked last among the top ten sects, and it suffered a lot when it came to grabbing a position. The worst time was that it changed four areas in a row, and then squeezed together with a few unknown sects.
The city lord was furious because of this, but he had nowhere to vent his anger, so he could only hold it in his stomach.
In the previous counting, one of the commanders figured out a way, since he couldn't grab the other nine sects, he might as well go early, so as to at least take advantage of the first-come, first-served principle.
Hearing this, Zheng Qiu asked: "What, is Qian Yunzong allowing other sects to fight at the celebration? Is that still a celebration?"
On the other side, Qing Youcai replied: "Of course it's not a big fight, but there are still some secret moves. Anyway, you can't hurt people, just make others look ugly and make jokes."
Zheng Qiu looked at the commanders in the team and saw that they were not paying attention to him, so he asked softly: "Could it be that the city lord can't deal with people from the other nine sects?"
Qing Youcai shook his head and replied: "What are you thinking, Qian Yunzong is not stupid, let's not hold the celebration of letting practitioners of the divine realm fight each other.
The god realm practitioners of the ten major sects all sit in specific places, so the confrontation between the sects depends on us. "
The shop owner who was eloquent just now also complained: "In terms of cultivation level, we are similar to those nine major sects, but they all have strange things, such as medicine powder, talisman paper and so on.
Our wild and isolated city actually suffers from the lack of supplies. "
Qing Youcai echoed, "Yes, you can't use weapons in a secret confrontation, and I don't lack weapons in the wilderness."
Just like that, Qing Youcai chatted with the shop owner on his own, leaving Zheng Qiu aside.
"Wait, I still don't get it."
Zheng Qiu interrupted the two of them, "Since they have so many tricks, we will suffer a disadvantage if we do it, but does this have something to do with getting a seat early?
Do it manually, but if you are reasonable, others will listen? "
Qing Youcai said with a smile: "You have little experience, so you don't understand, and you need to pay attention to the word trouble.
It doesn't matter if you suffer a loss by doing it, just keep your face and don't move, make trouble, make things big, so that Qian Yunzong has to come to make peace.
Since we want to make peace, it is natural to have the advantage of being reasonable. Last time, we used this trick to get a good position close to the front. "
Zheng Qiu burst out laughing: "So it's just playing a scoundrel!"
Qing Youcai shrugged his shoulders, showing an indifferent expression on his face: "It's just playing a scoundrel, anyway, this is a matter between the top ten sects. People in the world only know that the Great Desolation City has grabbed a good position, and they think that the Great Desolation City is even more powerful."
Suddenly, the dark woods in front of him suddenly opened up. Zheng Qiu saw a huge open space under the hillside, and a ring with a diameter of several hundred feet was laid flat on the open space.
