"Are we going to open up new land again?" Mr. Hao also reacted.
"Those lower houses that were taken back are not the lower houses of Supervisor Song." Shang Huan said meaningfully.
Chen Mu suddenly realized.
Instead of sharing a lower house with others, it is better to find a new spiritual spring.
As long as it is developed, the decision will be entirely up to Supervisor Song since the emperor is far away.
……
evening.
The outer edge of Tianhefang.
Chen Mu and others were waiting bored in front of a wide river beach.
Some have already lit a bonfire and are grilling fish for dinner.
Chen Mu also took a fist-sized cloth bag and stuffed the fasting pills into his mouth one by one.
"It's a pity that I couldn't go to Tianhefang." Mr. Hao sighed while smoking a cigarette.
"I've lived in Tianhe Water Palace for half a year. Tianhefang is just a gathering place for wild cultivators. What's so good about it?" Chen Mu shook his head.
Maybe because of the fierce competition for resources, it will become even more chaotic.
"That's right. A bunch of poor guys, not much money to be made." Shang Huan disagreed.
"You don't understand." Mr. Hao looked mysterious.
Chen Mu couldn't help but feel moved.
It is said that the members of Chongshandao who had caused them trouble some time ago were living in Tianhefang at that time.
Is there any other explanation here?
"The spiritual energy in Tianhefang is very thin, or even non-existent." Old Hao said calmly, "So besides cultivators like us, there are also a large number of ordinary people living here."
"To be able to come to the Tongtian River, one must have traveled through mountains and rivers and overcome numerous dangers."
"So most of the ordinary people who can come here are from big dynasties. Some of them are even members of the royal family."
"There is a prince in the Daqian court who is stationed in Tianhefang all year round. He is always ready to listen to the orders of Jilongdao."
"Those disciples who left our lower house were all arranged to go to the mortal world by this prince."
There's nothing special about this, right?
Chen Mu was puzzled.
"Could it be that those mortal royal families can collect the natural treasures of the mortal world?" Shang Huan's eyes lit up.
Chen Mu couldn't help but look at Mr. Hao.
The mortal world is vast, but there are few cultivators.
The royal family rules over vast territories, and if they search the entire world, it is possible that they will find some treasures.
Even in a so-called remote area like Daliang, far away from Yunzhou, there are still many precious objects, not to mention this prosperous Yunzhou.
"There are definitely treasures, but it's not our turn. We have already handed them over to the Senate in exchange for resources." Old Hao shook his head.
"Then what else can these mortals do?" Shang Huan looked disappointed.
Mr. Hao chuckled and said, "They can give you a wife!"
Chen Mu: “…”
No, you're an old man, can you be serious?
I think about these crap all day long!
"Is it beautiful?" Chen Mu couldn't help but ask.
"Those are the aristocratic families and royal clans that have controlled the secular world for hundreds of years."
"Do you think the person they sent is pretty?" Old Hao winked.
"Tsk..." Shang Huan said disapprovingly: "I thought something else."
"Do you think it's easy to find a wife?" Old Hao glared at Shang Huan.
"Is it...very difficult?" Shang Huan was a little uncertain.
"If you want to get a wife, you either need to be good-looking, wealthy, or good at speaking."
"Not only that, we rarely see anyone because of years of training. How do you know who has a good daughter waiting to get married?" Old Hao said angrily.
Chen Mu immediately agreed with it.
It seems that finding a partner is not easy anywhere.
In their previous lives, countless otakus and housegirls were entangled in spells that urged them to get married.
too difficult!
"These aristocratic families are responsible for matchmaking and helping others."
"Send a wife to a male cultivator."
"Send the boy to the nun."
"If you have a special hobby, it's not impossible to send you a boy."
Chen Mu: “…”
What a mess!
……
Uh...
Several people were chatting.
A long humming sound was suddenly heard.
The chaotic crowd on the riverbank suddenly became quiet and everyone looked up at the sky.
A stream of black and white light suddenly emerged from a white cloud in the sky.
It crashed onto the river bank with a bang. The person who appeared was the Junior Supervisor Liang Yi.
I don’t know what magic spell he used to make his voice become high-pitched and loud.
"Everyone pack your bags and prepare to board the Cloud Bat Flying Boat."
Just as he finished speaking, a long humming sound came from the sky again.
The white cloud that Liang Yi had just emerged from suddenly fell down.
As it descended, the white clouds spread out in all directions.
Soon, the white clouds became thinner and thinner until they disappeared.
A huge black shadow like a blue-brown bat appeared in front of everyone.
Is this the Cloud Bat?
Chen Mu's scalp tingled involuntarily.
A huge object comparable to a football field slowly descended onto the surface of Tongtian River, stirring up a turbulent airflow and blowing everyone's clothes.
If Liang Yi hadn't been standing at the front, someone might have already run away!
Even so, Chen Mu still felt weak in the legs.
He looked at it carefully and found many signs of human modification. He immediately confirmed that it was something similar to a watercraft.
It is a giant flying magical weapon made from the bodies of strange beasts and monsters.
Fortunately, he is dead.
Chen Mu was still frightened.
If this thing were alive, I'd be finished if it breathed a sigh of relief!
While feeling frightened, Chen Mu couldn't help but feel excited.
He practiced hard, wandered around, and finally got to where he is today.
Isn't it just to witness the wonder of this world?
He saw a peculiar corner of the world today, and he is sure that he will witness more in the future.
Thinking of this, Chen Mu couldn't help but feel his heart surge with emotion.

Chapter 309 Yuquan Villa
The cloud bat was originally a sea creature that could swim in the water or fly into the sky. It had countless air holes under its pair of blue-gray wings, which allowed it to control the clouds and ride on mist.
After being captured and killed, their stomachs are hollowed out and magical talismans are practiced to carry people and objects into the sky and into the water.
The Cloud Bat Flying Boat that Chen Mu was riding on was purchased by Jilong Dao from Qianji Sect at a huge price.
The flying boat has three floors.
The bottom layer is for goods.
The middle layer is separated into small compartments by screens, each with two or three soft couches, which can accommodate seven or eight people.
The top level is exquisite and luxurious, and only those who have seen through illusions and cultivated magical powers are qualified to ride it.
Uh...
Accompanied by a long cry, white smoke suddenly spewed out from a row of black air holes under the wings of the cloud bat.
After a slight vibration, the huge cloud bat flying boat slowly floated into the air.
On the second floor, in a compartment near the window.
Chen Mu and Mr. Hao leaned against the round jade window, looking at the flat bluestone ground getting farther and farther away below.
This is already the fourth day since they left Tianhefang.
