The five plates of Tianyuan continent have their own characteristics, and the most prominent feature of Xichuan is the mountains and rivers that can be seen everywhere.
Among the several continents, Nanyuan is the most prosperous in cultivation, Zhongzhou is the most developed in economy and trade, and Donghu is more suitable for living in seclusion. In contrast, Xichuan and Beilu are undoubtedly relatively weak regions. Before the spirit pulse of Beilu, it was always restricted by the Jiuyou spirit swallowing array, which led to the existence of Beilu at the bottom of several continents. At that time, Xichuan was not much better than the northern continent, so it was far behind.
Mo Li and Su ranxue first went to the big city on the edge of Western Zhongzhou through the space channel, and then flew to Xichuan by Xuemo. After two months, they finally met the first city.
Fengcheng is a small city in the east of Xichuan. The origin of its name lies in the fact that red maples are planted in front of every household in the city. It's autumn now. After entering the city, it's full of red maples.
There are many merchants on both sides of the spacious streets, and there are many martial arts practitioners among the people who come and go. However, compared with the town of Nanyuan in Zhongzhou, the scale of Fengcheng is almost the same as that of Beilu Qingfeng City, one of Mo Li's rich places.
It's interesting to have a beautiful trip in a month, but it's good to have a rest when you run into a town one after another. After all, it's far away from the destination. I don't care about one day or two. Finding the Best Inn in the city, Mo Li decides to go with Su ranxue to explore the situation. The best place to get information is a restaurant full of dragons and snakes.
"Well, have you heard? Yesterday, in the black maple forest outside the city, people of zhengqimen took away a stronghold of qianspider hall. It is said that they rescued a lot of common people who were seized by qianspider hall to test the medicine from it! "
"Really? Don't the people of thousand spiders hall never attack ordinary people? "
"Who knows! However, it is said that there are young people missing in several villages outside Fengcheng. It is estimated that they have something to do with the stronghold of qianspider hall! "
"So do I! Those people in thousand spiders Hall who are not ghosts or ghosts say that they don't want to attack ordinary people. Who can tell clearly what they have done behind their back? "
......
Entering the restaurant and sitting by the window, listening to the conversation of several mercenaries at the next table, Mo Li and Su ranxue look at each other in surprise. I didn't expect that when I first came to Fengcheng, I met a big event.
Different from many families in Zhongzhou Nanyuan, there are only six forces in Xichuan, namely, three positive forces and three evil forces, fighting openly and secretly. The zhengqimen and qianzhutang mentioned at the adjacent table represent the two forces of good and evil. The reason why they were surprised was not that they were frightened by the names of zhengqimen and qianzhutang, but that the presence of these two groups of people here was quite unexpected.
The spiritual pulse of Xichuan is to the West. The closer it is to the west, the more spiritual it is. The headquarters of the six forces are all in the West. Fengcheng can only be regarded as a small city on the edge of the East. It is not normal for two forces to appear at the same time. In the heart is confused, a group of men next conversation let Mo Li face expression more surprised.
"Do you think... Is it possible that zhengqimen just happened to find the disciple of qianzhutang, so they found heifenglin?" Asked a middle-aged man who looked shrewd.
"What do you mean?"
The faces of the people sitting around the table were all confused.
The shrewd man gave a little smile, pursed his mouth and said, "don't you forget that the three-year selection of zhengqimen's disciples seems to be the latest?"
A group of mercenaries suddenly nodded after a short period of consternation!
"Elder brother, what do you mean by the selection of zhengqimen disciples?"
The conversation was very hot. There were two more uninvited guests nearby, and they were stunned immediately.
It was a young man with sword eyebrows and stars in his eyes. His face was like a knife. His eyes were as dark as stars. His handsome face was wearing a modest smile. This young man has an extraordinary origin at first sight, but it is the woman standing beside him who really makes people dumbfounded.
A snow-white skirt outlines the graceful body. Three thousand green silk is hanging down the waist, and a light yellow ribbon is tied on the waist, which adds a bit of warmth. Beautiful face seems to be covered with a layer of frost, indifferent temperament such as snow mountain white lotus.
Su ranxue's beauty amazes a group of mercenaries who live in the edge of Xichuan all the year round. Looking at them, they are always in a daze. They have no choice but to shake their heads and cough a few times.
"Cough --"
A group of men wake up from a dream, turn to look at Mo Li, face embarrassed.
Or the shrewd man Mo Li had been paying attention to was the first to adjust his look. He got up and arched his hand and asked, "little brother, what did you just say?"
"Oh! I want to ask you what you just said about zhengqimen recruiting disciples! "
"Are you not from Xichuan?" The middle-aged man slightly narrowed his eyes and guessed.
"On the contrary, we are all Xichuan natives!" Mo Li chuckled and then added in the suspicious eyes of a group of people: "however, my younger martial sister and I have been practicing hard in the mountains all the year round. We just decided to join the world a few days ago, and we know little about worldly affairs. It's better for me to be the host of this meal. Please tell us more about Xichuan
Hearing Mo Li's reply, the middle-aged man looked them up and down again, nodded and said: "so it is! No wonder you have such a question! "
Mo Li is also not polite. He takes Su ranxue to sit down and orders a table of good food and wine from his second son. His generosity greatly increases the favor of a group of upright mercenaries.
Suddenly there is a beautiful woman on the table, which makes people feel a little bit awkward. It's just that men make friends with each other very simply. Just have wine! After a few rounds of drinking, the relationship between them has obviously become closer.
The seven or eight people on the table are mercenaries who live together all the year round. Li Hao, a smart middle-aged man, is the backbone of this small team.
Through the conversation, Mo Li learned a lot about the rumors of the major forces in Xichuan, and finally understood how the so-called zhengqimen recruited disciples.
Although Xichuan has a wide area, there are mountains all over it. In fact, the environment suitable for human survival is not large, which leads to a much smaller population than other continents. The six local forces have been fighting all the year round, and the whole situation in Xichuan is not peaceful, so many small and medium-sized family forces will choose to send their outstanding disciples out of this troubled time, and canglan college is the most important place.
With the massive loss of local talents, it is difficult for several major forces to develop. Under the fierce competition environment, every year, the six major schools send people to recruit disciples everywhere. The difference is that the three major schools of the right way are in the public, while the three evil schools are in the secret.
In order to avoid conflicts, there is an agreement among the three sects of Zhengdao. The time for recruiting disciples is staggered for one year, which is equivalent to recruiting every three years. This year, it's just zhengqimen's turn.
After listening to several people's introduction, Mo Li finally had a certain understanding of the general situation of Xichuan. As he was thinking of asking for some details, a group of young girls dressed in brocade stepped into the staircase on the second floor of the restaurant.
