Cultivation Begins From The Desert

Vol 3 Chapter 43: : Sand Bandits Attack (Part 1)

In the sand sea thousands of miles away from the Baisha River oasis.

Not long after the old ancestor of the Chen family flew over the Baisha River oasis with a giant building boat, a red fire flew across a thousand miles from the Baisha River oasis and fell into the hands of a black-robed monk who was waiting here.

"Chen Yaohui has already taken people away, come quickly!"

Hearing the sound coming from the fire in his hand before the light dissipated, the black-robed cultivator was overjoyed and couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, this old thief Chen Yaohui has finally left. Since that's the case, it's time for us to act."

Before the laughter fell, the black-robed cultivator had a flash of yellow light on his body, and he directly used the "earth escape technique" to escape into the ground.

Half a day later, the black-robed cultivator who had escaped into the ground reappeared on the ground, but this time it was not just him, but hundreds of black-robed immortal cultivators dressed in black robes like him.

These hundreds of black-robed immortal cultivators were all dressed in black robes and masks, and each of them only showed a pair of eyes outside, and everyone's eyes exuded the light of greed like a wolf.

Sand bandits!

These black-robed immortal cultivators are all sand bandits!

It is very common for sand bandits to rob an oasis. Not every oasis in the boundless sand sea has a foundation-building stage immortal cultivator in charge. Many small oasis without third-order spiritual veins are some small families or some powerful ones in the Qi training stage. The qi training period is dominated by scattered cultivators.

After these small families or loose cultivators occupy the oasis, they will also cultivate spiritual veins, and they will also cultivate mortals, and select mortals with spiritual roots to teach immortal cultivation techniques and accept them as disciples. Most of the sources of loose cultivators come from these small oasis. .

Since these small oases are not guarded by monks in the foundation-building period, they will naturally become the targets of looting by sand bandits. Basically, as long as their locations are exposed, they cannot escape looting by sand bandits.

However, the sand bandits dared to loot a small oasis without foundation-building monks, or even a medium-sized oasis with foundation-building monks such as Yuquan Lake Oasis, but in any case, they should not dare or have the ability to sack a large oasis like Baishahe Oasis.

But now, after the hundreds of black-robed sand bandits appeared, they headed straight for the Baishahe oasis thousands of miles away.

From this, it can be seen that these sand bandits are either suffering from madness, and they are all crazy, or they have something to rely on, thinking that the lack of the Baishahe oasis where the ancestor of the Chen family, a cultivator of the Zifu period, cannot stop them. looting.

And judging from the fact that there were more than ten sword lights flying in the sky when these sand bandits were marching, it was obvious that they belonged to the latter type.

……

……

On the other side, Zhou Yang and Zhou Xuanyu returned to the "Yuquan Tower" after saying goodbye to the old patriarch and others.

Zhou Yang continued to read and ponder the experience of building foundations recorded by the seniors, while Zhou Xuanyu, as usual, closed the door and drew the amulet in the quiet room in the backyard.

Speaking of which, the reason why the Zhou family let her, the general affairs elder who has been out of the family for many years, to take over the "Yuquan Building", is also because after Zhou Yang started the business of magic tools in Fangshi, there is no profit for the time being.

Previously, because the Zhou family had Zhou Minghan, a top-grade alchemist, it was the main business of magic weapons. It was not until later that Zhou Xuanhao, a top-grade alchemist of the second rank, settled in, so that the pills could be used. And the instrument has become the main business at the same time.

However, when Zhou Yang took over, the "Yuquan Tower" became the main magic weapon again, and all of a sudden, the magic weapon business in the entire Fang market was stagnant.

In view of this, the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, after struggling and hesitating, sent Zhou Xuanyu, his granddaughter, to come to Fangshi to sit in town, hoping to use his superb skills of making talismans to change the main business of "Yuquan Tower".

The Zhou family's current source of revenue is relatively simple, with only two sources. One is the sale of resources such as Qingping Mountain's fine iron ore veins and the [Jinzhu Rice] grown in Lingtian on Yuquan Peak, and the other is "Yuquan Building", The income of the two stores of "Duixianlou".

The first of these two sources of income is stable and long-term, but the disadvantage is also obvious. The annual income is relatively fixed, and it will not skyrocket.

As for the second one, when encountering an opportunity like Zhou Yang's great tool refining, the income earned in one year will be equal to the total income of the family in the past few years.

In particular, now that the reputation of "Yuquan Tower" has been made, many immortal cultivators will come here for a walk when they come to Fang Market to buy spiritual things. These are high-quality customers.

Whether it’s the magical instruments, medicinal pills, spiritual talismans, or even the formations made by the Zhou family cultivators, as long as the quality of the items is not bad and the price is affordable, they can be sold quickly in the “Yuquan Tower”.

After these things are sold, not only the Zhou family cultivator who sells the things on consignment earns spiritual stones, but the family can also get a lot of money from them, which greatly eases the family's relatively difficult finances.

And reputation, if you don't pay attention to management, it will always come and go quickly.

Once those monks who came to "Yuquan Building" for shopping, found that there was nothing attractive here except for the magic weapon, they would most likely not come here next time.

Therefore, even though the old patriarch Zhou Minghan was quite reluctant to let Zhou Xuanyu, his granddaughter, stay away from the family and himself, for the sake of the family's development, he had to let her come to Fangshi to sit in town.

Just as Zhou Xuanyu had finished drawing most of the second-order mid-grade amulet and was about to finish, a deafening bell rang suddenly in the market, and the bell rang nine times in a row. effect.

Bang!

Zhou Xuanyu's jade hand holding the talisman trembled slightly, and the magic talisman that was about to be completed was instantly blown into a flame and turned into ashes because of the talisman maker's mind.

However, Zhou Xuanyu couldn't care less about this at this time. After she heard the bell ringing, she stared blankly at the direction of the bell ringing, the top of Jinxia Mountain.

"[Shocking Bell] Jiu Ming, this is the warning issued by Fang City when it encounters the enemy of the Purple House period and the fourth-order monster!"

"Why? Why is it so coincidental? Why did Old Ancestor Chen, Grandpa, and the others just leave when such a powerful enemy attacked?"

"No, no, this is a conspiracy! This must be a long-planned conspiracy! Dangerous, Fangshi is in danger!"

Zhou Xuanyu's pretty face suddenly changed color, she quickly collected the talisman and rushed out of the quiet room to the "Yuquan Building".

As soon as she got downstairs, she saw that Zhou Yang and others in the building had all walked out of the attic and were looking up at the top of the mountain.

At this time, over the top of Jinxia Mountain, the three foundation-building cultivators that the Chen family had stationed in Fangshi all the year round have all left the cave, hovering in the sky with their sword lights and looking at the countless cultivators in Fangshi below.

"Fellow Daoists, I just received a warning from the monks from the front family. A large number of sand bandits are coming to Fangshi. Among them, there are not only a dozen monks in the Foundation Establishment period, but there may also be monks in the Purple House period!"

"Because the enemy's strength is strong this time, I can't guarantee that I can protect all the monks in Fangshi, so now if you want to leave Fangshi to make a living, I will give you a quarter of an hour."

"After a quarter of an hour, any cultivator who is unwilling to leave Fangshi must obey our instructions. The old man first declares that if someone is unwilling to leave and is slack in the old man's order, be careful of the flying sword in the old man's hand and take his head!"

"Okay, time is running out, now you can make a choice!"

The cold voice came from the mouths of the three foundation-building cultivators. With the power of the spell spreading, it instantly spread throughout the city, like a boulder smashing into the water, causing an uproar.

Although most of the monks who understood the meaning of the bell had some preparations when they heard the nine consecutive ringings of the [Shocking Bell], but after hearing the actual situation from the monks of the Chen family's foundation-building period, they still let all the monks Feeling incredible, full of shock.

"Am I right? That senior said it was a sand bandit attack? When did the sand bandits have the guts to attack the Xiuxianfang City, which is guarded by several foundation-building monks and fourth-order formations!"

"Sand bandits! It turned out to be sand bandits! This is terrible! Sand bandits are evil ghosts who eat people and don't spit out bones. They have no trace of humanity. If Fangshi is broken by them, they will kill us even if we hand over our storage bags. !"

"Conspiracy, this is a long-planned conspiracy! To unite more than a dozen foundation-building period sand bandits, even ordinary monks of the Zifu period can't do it, Fangshi is in danger, let's escape, these The target of the sand bandits is only the cultivators of the major families in the market, and as long as we small fish and shrimps don't provoke them, they may not be willing to cause more troubles!"

Whoosh!

Feijian broke through the air, instantly beheading the cultivator who shouted "conspiracy" to the ground.

"The clown jumping on the beam, in such a hurry to seek death, this old man will satisfy you!"

A sneering laughter full of disdain sounded from the sky, and the cultivator of the Chen family who let out the flying sword to kill the base-building cultivator's face sank, and his eyes swept coldly at the lower-level loose cultivators who were shivering in fear by this scene and shouted: "Old man I know that there must be spies among you who have sneaked in, so if you want to get the bounty alive, you'd better shut up and get out of the market now, otherwise if the old man finds out that you are showing a clue, let's watch the old man. Does the flying sword in your hand recognize you?"

"Anyone who dares to mislead the public again will be dealt with as spies!"

As soon as the voice fell this time, the remaining cultivators in the market looked at me, I looked at you, no one dared to talk about anything, they were all thinking about the way forward with flickering eyes.

Whether the cultivator who was killed just now was a spy sent by the outside sand bandits or innocent, it doesn't matter to other cultivators who are not related to him~www.novelmt.com~ The important thing is that although he died, Yes, but what he said is not unreasonable. The sand bandits attacked Fangshi, of course, to make money, and many loose cultivators felt that their net worth was poor. Compared with those rich family monks in Fangshi, it should not be easy to cause sandstorms. Bandits pay attention.

Therefore, after the Chen family's foundation-building cultivator finished speaking, a bold cultivator soon bowed his hands to the three foundation-building cultivators in the sky: "Several seniors forgive me, it is not easy for the junior to practice hard, and I don't want to lose my life here. Please forgive me for being rude!"

This time, the cultivator of the foundation-building period of the Chen family who killed the sword-wielding cultivator didn't do anything, only the other old cultivator with white hair nodded to the talking cultivator with a wry smile and responded, "You can leave if you want, little fellow Taoist. It's also my Chen family that I'm sorry to everyone, this time if Fangshi can keep it, this old man should ask the family to reduce the Fangshi detention fee by half in the next ten years, thank you for your support!"

When the talking cultivator heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly shouted: "Senior Gao Yi, this junior admires, if he can escape his life this time, he will definitely promote the old senior and the Chen family to all the scattered cultivators. Prestige!"

After he finished speaking, he took a picture of himself with the "God's Run Talisman" and ran out of Fang City, but the three Chen Family Foundation Establishment cultivators in the sky really didn't move.

Seeing this, other cultivators who wanted to leave followed suit and gave a salute to the three foundation-building cultivators in the sky, saying a few good words, and then they all walked out of the market safely.

In less than a quarter of an hour, in the square market that originally gathered seven or eight hundred people, less than half of the people remained in the same place.

Outside the "Yuquan Tower", Zhou Yang, Zhou Xuanyu and other Zhou cultivators saw this scene, their expressions could not help changing, and the expressions in their eyes were indescribably complicated.
