Fang Yun rode On A Meteoric Rise and flew close to the tree branches at an extremely low altitude to avoid being discovered by others.
Fang Yun planned to disguise himself as someone from Qi City, which was far away from the frontline cities. Most of the people there did not have any experience in fighting against demons, so he would not be suspected.
Generally speaking, the City Lords of the backline cities would not have a good relationship with the City Lords of the frontline cities. This was because the City Lords of the backline cities were usually Grand Scholars who had lost in the battle for the frontline cities.
During the flight, Fang Yun thought about all aspects to prevent himself from getting into trouble.
Not long after, Fang Yun saw a city in the distance. It stood in the middle of red clouds and light red fog. There was a tall temple in the center of the city. Although it was the first time Fang Yun saw it, he guessed that it was the Sacred Temple of the Bloodlight Ancient Land.
In the Sacred Temples of Saint Origin World, the officials of the various countries and cities only had the right to use their talents. They did not have absolute control. The real power belonged to the Notre-Dame. This was also the fundamental reason why the Notre-Dame was above the Ten Nations.
In the Bloodlight Ancient Land, the cities were loosely allied. The Sacred Temples could communicate with each other, but each Sacred Temple was relatively independent.
At present, no one in the Bloodlight Ancient Land had absolute control over the Sacred Temples. Even the City Lords of the Great Confucian City could only use the power of the Sacred Temples of the various cities. They could not make the Sacred Temples do things that were against the law. For example, they could not borrow the power of the Sacred Temples to kill scholars for no reason or help the demons and barbarians.
Fang Yun lowered his altitude and speed again as he walked through the forest. When he was close to the farmland of the Gathering Clouds City, he put away the Heaven Ascension and walked out of the forest onto the official road.
Even if the cities in Saint Origin World were not prosperous, there would still be carriages coming and going. However, there were very few carriages here. He could only see a convoy of hundreds of people slowly driving towards the Gathering Clouds City.
The city walls and most of the buildings in the Gathering Clouds City were made of grayish-white stone. Under the red sky, the city looked like it was made of clouds.
There was a large field outside the Gathering Clouds City where a crop called "red wheat" was grown. The food made from the flour was very strange and Fang Yun was not used to it.
Except for the red wheat. There were also some pastures in the distance that raised blood cows and blood sheep. The taste of blood cows was also very strange, and Fang Yun was not used to eating them. On the contrary, he liked the bloody mutton very much. He decided to buy more of it and bring it back. Anyway, the things in the seashell could guarantee that they wouldn't rot for a long time.
Fang Yun knew that there were some places surrounded by tall walls outside the city. That was where the Dragon Grain Rice was grown, and it was heavily guarded.
The Dragon Grain Rice grew slowly, and the yield of artificial cultivation was extremely low. Moreover, it required a rare blood jade from the Blood Mang Ancient Land to cultivate.
However, in the wild, wild Dragon Grain Rice would occasionally appear. The yield of a single plant was much higher than that of artificial cultivation. The key was that it was possible to dig up blood jade.
If an ordinary person came across a small Dragon Grain Rice Field, as long as he gave it to the City Lord, he could become a wealthy person in the city. Her status was at least equivalent to that of a Grand Scholar.
There was a small Dragon Grain Rice Field on the map. The Dragon Grain Rice here grew very well, and there was a high chance that there would be more blood jade in the field.
After getting the map, Fang Yun hesitated. A small Dragon Grain Rice Field could harvest at least a thousand pounds of Dragon Grain Rice, and the blood jade could also be exchanged for Dragon Grain Rice. Not only could it support him for three months, but he could also bring a large amount of Dragon Grain Rice back to the Saint Origin World. Like Half-saint, he could eat Dragon Grain Rice every day.
However, Fang Yun quickly gave up on this idea. If he didn't meet Yun Jie alive, and only killed the bear monster to get the map, then he could take the Dragon Grain Rice Field for himself. However, he only got the map after meeting Yun Jie, not to mention that he was just a scholar. Even if he was an ordinary person, he still had a bottom line.
"This is a deal. I will kill all the beasts and barbarians as the price, and my conscience as the mortgage, in exchange for half of the Dragon Grain Rice Field!"
Fang Yun understood the nature of the whole thing, and revealed a relaxed smile.
"Shendu."
Fang Yun used the Scholar Haste Poem. He quickly walked forward, and when he reached the gate, he slowed down.
The gate of Juyun City was guarded by hundreds of soldiers. This was something that could only happen when Ning An City was under martial law.
Fang Yun knew that this was normal. After the soldiers saluted and greeted him, he nodded slightly and stepped into Juyun City.
Fang Yun briefly scanned the surroundings. Cloud Town was far from being comparable to this place. At first glance, this Juyun City was already equivalent to an ordinary prefectural city. The number of people seemed to be even more than the prefectural city of Jing Country.
Fang Yun observed as he walked.
Not long after, Fang Yun had a basic judgment. The clothes of the people here were more patched, and they were dirtier. Most of them were thin, and although their skin was white, there was no luster. It seemed that in addition to the poor diet, it was also related to the lack of sun in the sky. In this ancient land that was always covered by red clouds, their skin couldn't be too healthy.
Fang Yun first stayed in Juyun City for two hours, and after he had a basic understanding of the city, he went to the Saint Temple. He took out a Demon General Bear Ear and exchanged it for a "Military Merit Card", and received a military merit card. As long as he was in the city, he could check the military merit card at any time.
The military merit card was a one-inch square of white jade. There was a number on the front and the north. The front was the total military merit he had obtained, and the back was the remaining military merit.
Because the Saint Temples in the Bloodawn Ancient Land were relatively independent, different Saint Temples required different official seals to mobilize talent. Fang Yun didn't have any connections at the moment, so he decided to deal with the issue of the official seal later.
After dealing with the basic matters, Fang Yun inquired about the direction of Changle Street. He then inquired about the specific situation of the Yun Family from the nearby tavern.
The Yun Family of Changle Street was originally a Hanlin Family. However, after the death of the Hanlin Family's patriarch twelve years ago, they were demoted to a Jinshi family five years later.
The Yun Family had worked hard these years, producing two Jinshi. One was called Yun Jie, and the other was called Yun Ao. Both of them had the opportunity to be promoted to Hanlin and restore the Yun Family's status as a Hanlin Family. Therefore, the Yun Family's power wasn't greatly affected.
However, Yun Jie was the son of the Yun Family's first branch, while Yun Ao was the son of the Yun Family's third branch. The two branches had been fighting for a long time.
After listening to the waiter, Fang Yun slowly walked towards the Yun Family's residence. In his heart, he was thinking about Yun Ao. Was he the one who spoke ill of him behind his back in Cloud Town?
Among the five people in Cloud Town's tavern, the one called Yun Ao spoke the most unpleasant words. He was also the most arrogant. Although the one called Yun Dan occasionally agreed with him, he wasn't as arrogant and was more intelligent.
Not long after, Fang Yun arrived in front of the Yun Family's residence and carefully sized it up.
There was a one meter tall lion, four rows of nails, four pairs of lanterns, and two Xiezhi on the eaves of the main entrance. This was the standard etiquette of a Jinshi family. Even the positions of the four guards at the entrance were very particular.
Some of the rules here were much stricter than in Saint Origin World.
Without waiting for Fang Yun to speak, the guard on the left cupped his hands and said, "Greetings to the Jinshi master."
As he spoke, the four guards simultaneously half-knelt and stood up.
