Alchemist Sword Sect

Chapter 4241: Tianping Town

Wang Xi said: "There is a small town 300 miles ahead, called Taiping Town, which is the center of the entire Songzao Plain. We are going to the Xuan Iron Mine to pass through there. We can inquire there to see if it happens again. what happened."

"You seem to be familiar with this place?" Lu Chen asked.

Wang Xi smiled and said, "My little brother grew up in Songzao Plain, otherwise Elder Huang wouldn't have sent me here."

"Oh. That's easy." Lu Chen nodded.

In the afternoon, the two entered Taiping Town.

Taiping Town is indeed very prosperous. At least in terms of population density, it is not bad compared to big cities such as Longshan City. Of course, the cultivation of warriors may be a little worse.

However, the entire Songzao Plain has been very lively these days, and there have been many experts coming and going. It is easy to see warriors in the late Xiantian realm on the streets, and even experts in the cave.

"Senior Brother Lu, if you want to inquire about the news first, you can go to the largest restaurant in town. The restaurant is the place with the best information. Ask the shop assistant to know what's going on here." Wang Xi suggested.

Lu Chen nodded: "Anyway, don't worry, go to the restaurant to rest first, you are probably tired too."

Under the leadership of Wang Xi, Lu Chen came to the big restaurant in the center of the town, Zishan Building.

The Zishan Building is indeed very grandly decorated, and it is very lively inside.

The two went in and sat down at a random table. A shop assistant greeted him. Lu Chen said, "Man, bring all the signature dishes in your shop."

The shop assistant smiled brightly: "Okay, wait a moment, the guest officer."

In the past few days, Zishanlou's business has become exceptionally good, especially for a restaurant like Lu Chen who doesn't ask for the price. The restaurant often serves the most expensive dishes.

Indeed, for a martial artist, no matter how much you eat, you can't spend too much money, and Lu Chen naturally doesn't care about that.

Just as the shop assistant was about to leave, Lu Chen said again: "Man, I want to ask you something, what happened recently in Songzao Plain, why is it so lively?"

The shop assistant smiled and said, "There are too many things that happened. It's a long story."

Lu Chen smiled and took out a dozen high-grade spar, placed it on the table, and said, "If it's a long story, then speak slowly."

The spar has always been a hard currency, especially this kind of high-quality spar. The shop clerk saw so many spar, his eyes straightened, and he said quickly: "Speaking of the recent, the biggest event should be the Tiankeng in Songzao Plain. It is said that the disciples of the Nebula Sect came here to practice and found a tiankeng. Hehe, I didn't expect that there was a mysterious iron ore hidden under that tiankeng. We locals knew about that tiankeng, but no one knew about it. There is such a large mysterious iron ore hidden in it, which made the Nebula Sect a fortune. However, when Jiuliumen saw such a large mysterious iron ore, of course, they were jealous, and the two sides competed. It is said that Jiang Tie of the Nebula Sect was almost killed. Death, Jiu Liumen also suffered revenge from the Nebula Sect, and several elite disciples died, it was really tragic."

The shop assistant explained happily.

Anyway, it's someone else's business. For him, the fight between the Nebula Sect and the Nine Willows Sect is a fight between gods and immortals. He is only responsible for watching the fun and collecting gossip news.

Lu Chen said, "Even if the Nebula Sect and the Nine Willow Sect fought fiercely, they wouldn't attract so many people, right? Did they all come here to watch the fun?"

The shop assistant said with a smile: "Don't tell me, there are really many people here just to watch the fun, and more to come to pick up cheap ones. Just in the past few days, it is said that the essence of black iron was found in the Tiankeng, not only that. , I heard that this mysterious iron ore is spread over a radius of more than ten miles. Do you think this mine is big? If one sect of the Nebula Sect wants to occupy the entire mysterious iron ore, it would be too overbearing, not to mention Jiu Liumen, I heard that Xuanji Men, Taiyuan Sect, Dongao Island, and Tongtian Sword Sect have all sent people, and they all want a piece of the pie.”

"Across ten miles?" Lu Chen's expression changed slightly.

He is well-informed about the experience of the two worlds before and after, but he has never heard of the minerals spread over a dozen miles.

"Yeah, such a large amount of minerals should be considered common to the entire Songzao Plain. Now the common people and loose cultivators of the Songzao Plain don't even think about it. There are disputes between the seven major sects." The shop assistant said.

Lu Chen nodded.

If such a large iron ore is supplied to a sect of Nebula Sect for mining, even five hundred years of refining materials will be enough. However, such a large mine will definitely not be swallowed by the Nebula Sect. , and ultimately must be re-determined.

Wang Xi said with a smile: "For such a large mineral, even if several major sects jointly mine it, it will take a long time to mine, and this town will definitely be prosperous in the future."

"Who said it wasn't, now some people advocate opening a pharmacy and a refining hall nearby, and business is booming," said the shop assistant.

After learning about the situation, Lu Chen is not in a hurry. Anyway, this matter is definitely not something that can be negotiated in a short time. In the end, it may take the senior management of each sect or even the sect master to come forward to negotiate and settle it. Lu Chen's status is not enough. decisions on important matters.

After the food was served, Lu Chen and Wang Xi ate with peace of mind. There was a table full of dishes, which were very rich and tasted good.

Many high-profile customers in the restaurant were chatting and laughing loudly. Speaking of the experiences of these days, Lu Chen listened to these people talking while eating, and gained a better understanding of the matter.

"I heard that the essence of black iron is produced in the black iron mine, is it true?" a rough voice asked.

Another person next to him said: "It's absolutely true, the essence of black iron is a treasure, only one thousand pounds of black iron can extract one kilogram of black iron essence, and the Nebula Sect has mined a lot, but I heard that the disciples of the Nebula Sect were People were robbed, many of the essence of black iron were robbed, and the people of the Nebula Sect were also attacked and killed, how many people died?"

"What? When did this happen?"

"It just happened a few days ago. Now the people of the Nebula Sect are also very cautious. They set up a formation near the mine, and they don't leave easily. In addition, there are more and more masters from the major factions. There are many, but there are many people who want to take the opportunity to make trouble for profit."

"I heard that an important core disciple of the Nebula Sect was attacked a few days ago and almost died. Is that true?"

"Yeah, this doesn't seem to be anything new. That core disciple is called Jiang Tie, who is second only to Lu Chen in limelight and ranks second on the Qianlong list. It is said that the future potential may be in Xuanjimen's core disciple Shui Xiuzhi. but I was almost killed, and I don’t know who the attackers are.”

"Jiang Tie also had a bit of trouble in the Yongfu Dynasty. This person should be very powerful. In the younger generation, he can almost be compared with Lu Chen. Even he was injured. It seems that the water is really muddy."

"Hey, what does it have to do with us, the bigger the chaos, the more exciting it will be to watch. Thinking of the ownership of the Xingyun Sect and the Nine Willows Sect in the competition of Wu Dingxuan Iron Mine, I estimate that it will still be decided by competition. It must be between three generations of disciples. Contest. Jiang Tie is still recovering from his injuries. If he wants to send someone over, Lu Chen can't not come, but I want to see who the number one person on the Qianlong list is."

"I have also heard of Lu Chen. His background is very strange and his origins are strange. It is said that when he was 20 years old, he only cultivated in the acquired realm, but in just three or four years, he has become the core disciple of the Nebula Sect. It's a late bloomer, and it doesn't rise so strangely. I have always been suspicious of this person's strength. Is it because the people of the Nebula Sect deliberately hyped up Lu Chen so much?"

"It's possible."

There was a lot of discussion. Regardless of whether they praised or criticized, Lu Chen was at peace, and Wang Xi also seemed very calm. He seemed to not hear what others were talking about, and kept his head down to eat.

At this moment, Lu Chen suddenly felt something, and when he looked up, a tall old man walked in. This man was powerful and his strength had reached the third level of the Profound Realm.

In this place, a master of the third level of the Cave Profound Realm appeared, inevitably attracting attention.

After the old man walked in, a person in the seat next to Lu Chen changed color, and he whispered, "This person is the old devil Tian Jiantian, everyone be careful, don't provoke him."

"Old Demon Tian?" When the other people heard the name, their expressions changed slightly.

However, although they seemed very afraid, they did not leave.

Lu Chen had never heard of Tian Jian, so he asked Wang Xi, "Wang Xi, have you heard of this person?"

Wang Xi nodded: "He is a loose cultivator near the Songzao Plain. He is very strong, and he is not inferior to the senior elders of the sect, but he is not very good. He likes to rob and bully the weak. Goods don’t kill people. Although he is hated by many people and has a lot of enemies, he doesn’t have any particularly powerful enemies, and he doesn’t do many bad things, but he doesn’t kill many people, so he’s not wanted by any major faction.”

"Oh? Such a loose cultivator who offends people everywhere, he can still live to this day and his strength is still cultivating to this point. This person's luck is really good." Lu Chen said with a smile.

"That is, there are always all kinds of strange people in the world." Wang Xi said solemnly.

Tian Jian didn't seem to hear other people's whispers, he walked in swaggeringly, and then came to a window seat not far from Lu Chen, and said loudly: "Little Er, this seat is good, call these three thieves. Birds get out of the way right now."

There were three people in that seat eating and drinking. Tian Jian would drive these three people away without asking about the situation, which showed he was overbearing.

The shop assistant ran over and said with an embarrassed expression: "Guest officer, there are still vacant seats upstairs, I'll take you upstairs."

Tian Jian's beard straightened up, his eyes widened and he said, "I like this seat, didn't you hear?"

The momentum was slightly dissipated, and the shop clerk turned pale in shock. He knew that these Jianghu people were masters, and at least he would not take the life of one of his shop clerks in his heart. Little life explained.

He came to the window seat tremblingly, and said, "Several uncles, can you move a seat, today's meal is free, what do you think?"

Originally, such problems are usually handled by the shopkeeper, but when the shopkeeper encounters this kind of thing, he also has a headache, and pushes the task to the shop assistant. If the shop assistant can't solve the problem, then he can only The roll up is gone.
