Since the night of "The Wind Rolls Over the Jade Lining the River", the Ye family has always been crowded with people seeking to see the real Yufeng.

Zhou Jing met with people from all walks of life every day, and roughly figured out the upper class situation in Ningtian Mansion.

Ningtian Mansion, as the auxiliary capital of Daxia, has a long history and many clansmen. The powerful and powerful living here are divided into several categories.

The first is an aristocratic family that has lasted for hundreds of years. Their ancestors had various high officials, and they had been in power in different dynasties. These aristocratic clans, in the process of Da Xia Taizu's determination to found the country, sent the elites of the family to make bets before and after, and Da Xia Taizu naturally would not refuse to help, so the clan clans shared the credit, and they were able to continue after the change of dynasties. There are many children in the family. Entered the dynasty as officials, and even some of them were imperial relatives, and they ruled the world together.

The second category is after the founding nobles who followed the Great Xia Taizu to conquer the world, this Hou and that uncle, there are ancestors who are shadowed, and there are people in the family who are officials, and they are also prominent.

The third category is some upstart families. Most of them are new families that have been inherited after some underprivileged officials have been in power for a hundred years. They also have some status, and most of the family heads are officials of the dynasty.

Zhao Xing'an, the prefect of Ningtian, is one of them. He doesn't come from an aristocratic family. He was a poor family a few generations ago, but his ancestors served as servants, and the family jumped into the class and was no longer a grassroots. And he was admitted to the court and became an official, and he climbed to the position of the prefect of Ningtian step by step, so that the Zhao family could prosper again.

It's just this kind of upstart family. Most of the power is tied to the head of the family, and the descendants are temporarily absent. Once the head of the family loses power, the family may soon decline. small gap. Only by operating for a few more generations, spreading branches and spreading leaves, having descendants entering the dynasty as officials, accumulating family prestige, and gaining a firm foothold, can we gradually turn into an aristocratic family that is too big to fail.

These three types of prominent families are the top dignitaries in Ningtian Mansion. Although they live here, their power is not limited to the local area. In addition to this, there are also former courtiers who are serving for retirement, cultural celebrities, etc. in Ningtian Mansion. The situation can be described as quite complicated.

One of the more special dignitaries is the royal clan who lives in Ningtian Mansion. Although they are the most distinguished, they are usually low-key and generally do not provoke others, and no one dares to provoke them, or even curry favor with them. There are not too many people, but once they show up, no one dares to ignore them, and there is a sense of detachment.

After some experience, Zhou Jing realized more and more that this was a huge network of intertwined interests, which seemed invisible to ordinary people, and could not be touched, unknowable, and unpredictable by ordinary people.

In comparison, a wealthy businessman like the Ye family really doesn't rank in this Ningtian Mansion.

The water is deep in this place.

Fortunately, however, these wealthy clans considered him to be an expert in the world, and were intimidated by his miraculous means.

Especially the aristocratic families who have successfully obtained the medicinal pill, who have experienced the magical effect of the medicinal pill, and are even more convinced and supportive.

Nowadays, no one calls him Lingfengzi anymore, thinking that it is not respectful to call him by his first name, and now he is directly called Master Yufeng.

In response to the needs of these wealthy clans, Zhou Jing developed two new types of pills.

One is Qingliang Dan, which is taken when the summer heat is dry and hot, it will be cool and transparent from the inside out, and the whole body will be light and light. Although it is still spring, but the summer in Ningtian Prefecture is hot, the wealthy are used to preparing early. Medicines are very popular.

The other is the Longevity Pill, which can be used to nourish the body of the elderly, become healthier, and achieve the effect of prolonging life. This pill is the focus of the wealthy family. However, Zhou Jing strictly controlled the production and claimed that this pill was extremely difficult. Refinement is so expensive that there is no market, so that the major wealthy families are eager to see.

Moreover, Zhou Jing also deliberately claimed that this kind of longevity pill is just an introduction. The pill that can really prolong lifespan is called "Zifu Longevity Pill". One pill can prolong one's life for decades. Only precious medicinal materials can be refined, and it takes a lot of hard work and time, and it cannot be refined for the time being.

He understands the importance of anticipation, so he took out this big pie and swayed the appetite of these wealthy families.

As for the existence of the "Purple Palace Longevity Pill"... it doesn't matter whether you can refine it or not, as long as everyone is willing to believe it, it is true.

It's a pity to maintain the image of an expert, otherwise Zhou Jing really wants to pick up his old business, and come out on the whole point of "Golden Spear Don't Fall" and "Dragon and Tiger Crossing Pills", which will surely be popular all over the world, and let these wealthy people know their taste , can never leave.

……

This day.

In the Ye family's living room, Zhou Jing was meeting a Liu family member, but this person was Liu Ping's father, and he brought his son here to make amends.

Actually, this is the third time that the Liu family has sent a letter of worship to ask for a meeting, but Zhou Jing has been behind closed doors for the first two times, and has not seen each other until today.

The servants came in with a few boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and Liu Ping's father and his son followed.

Liu Ping's father kept his posture quite low and did not dare to sit down. He stood and bowed to Zhou Jing in the main seat:

"A few days ago, Ping'er made a speech that offended the real Yufeng. It was because of my lack of discipline. Today, I brought my dog ​​to visit the real person, apologized for the incident that day, and prepared some small gifts. As an apology, I hope the Taoist priest will ignore the past suspicions, my Liu family has admired the real person for a long time, and I just want to have a good relationship with the real person..."

He said a good word, full of flattery, then turned his head and shouted at Liu Ping:

"Ping'er, why don't you kneel down and apologize to the Taoist priest?

With a thud, Liu Ping knelt down without hesitation, as if he was worshipping gods in a Taoist temple.

"I don't know immortals face to face. I have eyes but no pearls. I really know I'm wrong. I hope the real person will spare me once. In the future, if the real person has orders, I will die!"

Zhou Jing sat on the seat and received a salute before raising his hand slightly, his tone indifferent:

"No need to mention some trivial matters, the poor Daoist has long ignored them."

The two of them were worried and their palms were full of sweat. After listening to this sentence, they were truly relieved, knowing that this level was finally over.

The first two times I had a closed door, but today I was finally allowed to meet. The family elders all spoke up, saying that they caused trouble and ruined the chance to make friends with high-ranking people.

Liu Ping and his son were excited and flattered for a while. Seeing Zhou Jing lifted the tea bowl and took a sip, he immediately said goodbye and left a few boxes of belongings.

The servants of the Ye family immediately came in, moved the belongings and sent them to Zhou Jing's yard.

Zhou Jing picked up the gift list, glanced at it, and pouted:

"This Liu family is really generous, and it seems to be sincere."

Actually, he didn't have any opinion on Liu Ping. Seeing that the Liu family came to the door in good faith, he let the other party go. After all, it was just a quarrel, and he didn't plan to do it too badly.

In recent days, there have been too many people giving gifts. No one from the Ningtian family has come empty-handed. He has saved hundreds of dans of property, and the yard he lives in cannot fit in. The Ye family hastily built a new one. The courtyard came out and was used as a warehouse for Zhou Jing.

Among these gifts, gold and silver alone are wealth that ordinary people cannot earn in ten lifetimes, not to mention luxury items such as jewelry, jade, and antiques.

There is currently no place to spend money here, but Zhou Jing does not refuse to accumulate wealth, and saves it first. Anyway, it is the money of the tyrants, and the silver is sent to him in a load of white flowers, and the speed of accumulation of wealth is like running water.

It just so happens that Chen Feng will probably have a rebellion in the future. When he saves enough start-up funds in the future, he will create an opportunity for him to "steal it away". It's just that these aristocratic families are indirectly sponsoring "aspiring youths".

Zhou Jing put down the gift list, ready to see what other posts worth seeing.

At this time, the grandfather of the Ye family came tremblingly on crutches, and was followed by a servant.

Seeing this, Zhou Jing put down the prayer post and got up. He smiled and said, "Old lady, are you feeling better recently?"

"Thanks to the real person, I have returned from the gate of hell."

Ye Taigong is cheerful, a little breathless, but his complexion is slightly better than the previous days.

After the evil spirits on his body were expelled, he took Yuchundan every day to strengthen his foundation, and Zhang Jinduan carefully illuminated him to take care of his body. Now he can walk on the ground.

After a little salute, the two took their seats again.

Tai Gong Ye spoke immediately, with a grateful tone: "Really Yufeng saved the old man's life. This kindness will be remembered by the old man for five years. When my body and bones are better, I will give thanks."

Zhou Jing nodded and smiled: "The old lady met me when she was critically ill. She should not die.

Grandpa Ye shook his head: "The real person moves according to the circumstances. This free and easy attitude is heartbreaking, but the old man can't take it for granted. I have already ordered that from now on, all members of the Ye family will The real people look at the elders of the writers, work hard for the real people, don't have the slightest complaint, and don't disturb them on weekdays... The real people can rest assured to live in my Ye family."

Zhou Jing raised his brows, roughly understood what the other party was thinking, and then opened his mouth to give the other party a reassurance, and said with a smile:

"The Ye family has done a lot of trivial things for Pindao. I live here quite comfortably, and I don't have to worry about anything. If the old lady doesn't dislike it, Pindao still needs to hang around for some time."

"This is good, this is good..."

Ye Taigong grinned.

Recently, Zhou Jing's name is very famous. I don't know how many wealthy families want to invite Zhou Jing to live in their home, but Ye's family is close to the water tower, so naturally they don't want Zhou Jing to leave, so they make this statement.

Zhou Jing himself doesn't plan to move out. The facilities here are all available, and the Ye family has also been trained to become a die-hard supporter. If he goes out, he has to re-purchase it himself. There is no need for it.

The two talked a few more words, and then Taigong Ye left and went back to the house to continue recuperating without disturbing Zhou Jing.

At this time, the steward who had been waiting outside walked in and reported:

"Zhenzhen, there are two Taoist priests outside, an old man and a young man, claiming that they have something important to discuss and want to meet with the real person."

Zhou Jing blinked and asked, "Can you verify the authenticity? Don't be an idler who comes to the door and makes up random people, who's family's hen hatches three chicks with one egg, and whose family's bird is I can speak..."

The steward shook his head and said, "These two Daoists have an ultimatum, they don't seem to be cheating."

"Let's meet then."

Zhou Jing became curious.

Two serious Taoists came to the door, not knowing what to do.

You won't come to investigate his unlicensed business, will you?

'Just look at the characteristics of the Taoist priests in this world, and I will also have a reference for pretending to be ghosts in the future. Moreover, there are evil spirits in this world, and there should be some Taoists with real skills. I made such a big noise, I wonder if I can meet...'

Zhou Jing secretly said.

……

On the other side, the old man and the young man were waiting for the steward to return outside the Ye family mansion.

The young man glanced at the long line and whispered: "Master, this Lingfengzi is so popular, so many people come to see him, will he meet us?"

Lao Dao glanced at him: "You ask me like that, as if I know."

The boy choked and said, "Master, I still think it's too risky to ask for a meeting..."

Old Daoist turned a deaf ear, closed his eyes and rested his mind, looking like "I can't use my ears well".

The teenager had a boring discussion and settled down.

But after a while, he couldn't keep his mouth shut, and said enviously:

"He is so popular, how much money can he earn every day? Master, why don't we go out with dignitaries?"

Lao Dao opened his eyes and said thoughtfully: "Do you think there is such a possibility, is it that I have dragged you down to get rich?"

"Have this to..."

"Huh?"

"Master, I think I still like the feeling of being poor."

"Hmm."

Lao Dao closed his eyes again.

The teenager closed his mouth again.

Not long after, the steward finally came back and said, "Master Yufeng agreed, the two priests will come with me."

"It's work."

Lao Dao bowed slightly, brought his apprentice, and entered the Ye family mansion with the steward.

A group of people walked in the courtyard and passed through the courtyard.

The teenager quietly approached Lao Dao and whispered, "Master, what should I say later?"

"You don't have to speak, don't make trouble for me."

Lao Dao rolled his eyes.

The boy snorted and closed his mouth obediently.

The old man thought about it and lowered his voice:

"If this Lingfengzi is willing to help, it will be the best. If he has other ideas, it will not be good. Later, he will be smart and act according to the situation... Shishi will use the qi technique to explore him. , just take a look to know what Daoxing he is. I don't know what kind of magic this Lingfengzi is practicing, and what methods he has, but unless he knows such amazing skills as qi concealment, Daoxing can't be fake. "

With that said, the group finally arrived at the reception hall.

The steward who led the way asked the two of them to wait outside the house. He went in and made a report by himself, and then came out and led the way with his hand, saying:

"The real person is waiting inside, you two please come in."

Old Dao calmed down, raised his guard secretly, and walked in.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Zhou Jing sitting on the main seat, wearing a feathered dress and a daoguan and cloud shoes. He was much more refined than a shabby Taoist like him, and was curious about the two of them.

Obviously this person is the righteous master, Lingfengzi of "Really Yufeng".

Old Daoist saw this, his eyes flashed, and he was silently looking at Qi.

The Qi of the Five Elements, the Qi of Yin Evil, the Qi of the Corpse... All kinds of breaths that cannot be seen by the naked eye appear traces in the eyes of Lao Dao.

And at this moment, he saw the cold azure light blooming with Zhou Jing as the center.

Old Dao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly moved, and subconsciously blurted out:

"Tao is natural?!"

Zhou Jing was stunned.

What is the opening remarks? Is it possible that serious Taoist priests greet their colleagues like this?

He blinked and tried to return the salute: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerate?"

Old Dao suddenly came back to his senses, looked at Zhou Jing in surprise, a look of awe appeared on his face, he didn't dare to care, he actually held a respectful junior salute, and solemnly said:

"Wei Zifu of the Pindao Qingling faction, this is Li Qingyang, a young disciple. See the real Taoist."

He has been listening to Lingfengzi's deeds every day recently, and his ears are already full of cocoons. He knows that this person should be really capable. On the way here, he has guessed several possibilities~IndoMTL.com~ But Wei Zifu only thought about it. However, this Lingfengzi's Taoism is so high!

The qi of the wood sign of the Sun Trigram comes from the inside, and the qi and the body are indistinguishable from each other.

Only by practicing the Five Elements and Wood Phases to an unimaginably high level, can one be able to embody such a Taoism. Such a characteristic is a profound state of speculation in the secrets of Taoism - Taoism is natural!

He had never seen anyone reach such a state, but he never imagined that one day, he would be able to see with his own eyes a real person in the world with such a legend!

However, Wei Zifu didn't know, this was a misunderstanding.

When Zhou Jing first merged the Wind Spirit, he possessed some of the characteristics of the elemental body, which is equivalent to a walking humanoid Wind Spirit, which can be regarded as a large aggregate of wind elements.

However, in the field of vision, it was mistaken for the characteristics of "Dao and natural" - not that he really reached this state, but the apparent characteristics of different extraordinary systems were confused and hit by mistake.

Zhou Jing naturally wondered why Wei Zifu had a shocked expression.

To be cautious, he quietly opened his elemental vision.

The next moment, his senses changed, and he was also surprised to find that Wei Zifu was surrounded by a touch of white air, which made him feel like a fairy.

And the young man named Li Qingyang next to him also had traces of white air on his body, but it was much thinner.

'Do these two people possess other extraordinary systems in this world? ’

Zhou Jing's eyes lit up and he was in high spirits.

He quietly opened the panel, spending astral points to lose a detect.

Soon, the attributes of this veteran Wei Zifu emerged:

[Attributes: Physical 13, Resistance 11, Perception 18, Spirit 15, Energy 26]

Zhou Jing was overjoyed and blinked.

"Sure enough, it's a different extraordinary system! This attribute is really... uh, balanced?"
