"Six yuan?"
Teng Qingshan's heart trembled. This was practically a timely help. Teng Qingshan had been anxiously wanting to obtain more stone inscriptions. Yet, in the blink of an eye, the Rising Sun Trading Company's Great Elder said that they had six stone inscriptions! Teng Qingshan knew very well that the stone inscriptions were personally made by Emperor Yu. Every stone inscription was incomparably precious. The Rising Sun Trading Company would definitely not lend it to others easily.
Otherwise, why hadn't the Rising Sun Trading Company mentioned that they possessed the stone inscriptions during this half a year?
"What? Brother Teng Qingshan, you don't believe me?" Seeing that Teng Qingshan didn't speak, the Great Elder asked in surprise.
"Yes, of course I do." Teng Qingshan smiled and said, "Your Rising Sun Trading Company has a long history of over three thousand years. Moreover, your influence is spread all over the world. You are the strongest trading company in the world. Even the Jiang Clan has a stone inscription, and there are a total of thirty-six of them in the world. It would be strange if your trading firm didn't have one. It's not strange that there are six stone inscriptions. "
The First Elder smiled.
"But I was thinking." Teng Qingshan smiled and looked at the Great Elder. "These six stone inscriptions are extremely precious. Brother Mu, since you mentioned these six stone inscriptions, you must have something very difficult to do. Let me do it."
"It's a little difficult." The Great Elder nodded.
"Speak. What do you want me to do for you to lend me those six stone inscriptions?" Teng Qingshan said.
Having left the nine prefectures for too long, Teng Qingshan had always been concerned about his faraway hometown. Now, he knew that the Rising Sun Trading Company had six stone inscriptions. Teng Qingshan had to obtain these six stone inscriptions no matter what.
"Good, straightforward enough." The Great Elder laughed. "It's my teacher. He wants you to do something for him."
"Teacher, the Dreamy Cloud Martial Immortal?"
Teng Qingshan was shocked. He frowned and said, "Brother Mu, your teacher is a War God Ranker. He can't do anything. You want me to take action? " Previously, Teng Qingshan was still confident. Now, however, he was slightly apprehensive. The Martial Immortal Realm was an Emptiness Realm Expert! An Emptiness Realm Expert asked him to do something for him?
"Don't worry." The Great Elder said with a smile, "Although my teacher is a War God, he is unable to fly! The last time I sparred with you, after we returned. Teacher Xiang has mentioned about your bird-type demonic beast. This time, Teacher has something on, so he asked me to invite you to bring that bird-type demonic beast along. "
"Bird-type demonic beasts?" Teng Qingshan said in surprise, "Your Rising Sun Trading Company doesn't have any demonic beasts that know how to fly?"
"In this world, only the Tianfeng Clan understands the language of beasts." The Great Elder shook his head and said, "Moreover, there are very few bird-type demonic beasts, let alone taming them."
"The Dreamy Cloud Martial Immortal wants me to bring bird-type demonic beasts over. Is there a requirement for the bird-type demonic beasts' strength?" Teng Qingshan asked.
"Not really." The Great Elder smiled and said, "What the teacher values is the flying ability of the bird-type demonic beasts! As for strength? Golden Dan Innate Demonic Beasts are useless to Teacher. "
Teng Qingshan nodded.
He made up his mind and set off with the Whole Gale Eagle. As for the Blue Luan … it would remain here!
"I still don't know what the Dreamy Cloud Martial Immortal wants me to do." Teng Qingshan asked.
"I'm not sure either." The Great Elder shook his head and said, "I only know that we are going to the Dreamy Cloud Swampland to search for something."
"Dreamy Cloud Swampland?" Teng Qingshan was moved.
The three most dangerous places in Duanmu Continent were the Dreamy Cloud Swampland in the West Tang Region, the Blazing Flame Ridge in the Eastern Flower Region, and the Tianfeng Canyon in the Northern Frosty Region! The Dreamy Cloud Swampland was ranked first.
"That's right. The Dreamy Cloud Swampland extends for three thousand Li. It is extremely vast. Even an Emptiness Realm Expert would find it extremely difficult to search for a certain treasure. If there are bird-type demonic beasts, it would be much easier to look down from the sky. "Teng Qingshan somewhat understood why the Dreamy Cloud Martial Immortal asked him to go.
However, was it really just to search for something?
The treasure that the Dreamy Cloud Martial Immortal wanted to search for might not be ordinary.
However, no matter what, for the sake of the six stone inscriptions, Teng Qingshan had to make this trip!
"Old Brother Mu, it is already late. How about we set off tomorrow morning?" Teng Qingshan said.
"Yes, okay." Mu Wang nodded.
… …
During dinner that night, Teng Qingshan told Li Jun that he was going to the West Tang Region.
The next morning, under the gazes of Li Jun and the others, Teng Qingshan and the Great Elder Mu Wang rode the Whole Gale Eagle and flew northwest.
*****
At noon, the sun shone on the boundless snow.
The Whole Gale Eagle spread its wings and soared. The back of the Whole Gale Eagle was much wider than the back of the Blue Luan. On the back of the Whole Gale Eagle, Teng Qingshan and the Great Elder could sit cross-legged. If it was on the back of the Blue Luan, only one person could sit.
The Whole Gale Eagle was swift and fierce. As it flew, the houses of the villages below were like ants.
"Look, the Dreamy Cloud Ancient City is in front." The Great Elder pointed into the distance.
"Oh, is this the Dreamy Cloud Ancient City?" Teng Qingshan's eyes lit up as he looked at the ancient city from afar. The entire city was greenish-black in color, and there were a large number of guards on the city walls.
Dreamy Cloud Ancient City was an ancient city with a history of more than three thousand years!
Since its establishment, it had been the headquarters of the Rising Sun Trading Company.
"That should be the Dreamy Cloud Lake." Teng Qingshan's gaze passed over the Dreamy Cloud Ancient City and looked at the vast and boundless world to the west of the Dreamy Cloud Ancient City. Under the illumination of the sun, there were faint ripples. It was a large swamp — the Dreamy Cloud Swamp! The most dangerous place in Duanmu Continent!
"Yes, the Three Thousand Li Dreamy Cloud Swampland." The Great Elder looked at the Dreamy Cloud Swampland from afar and exclaimed, "After so many years, I have never seen the Dreamy Cloud Swampland from such a high place!"
The Whole Gale Eagle flew at an altitude of several thousand zhang. Looking at the Dreamy Cloud Swampland from such a high altitude, the scenery was indeed beautiful.
"Countless years have passed, but the Dreamy Cloud Swampland is still a world of beasts and monsters. The Dreamy Cloud Swampland was filled with dangers. The most dangerous thing was … … the terrain of the Dreamy Cloud Swampland was constantly changing. Even if it was at the expense of human lives, it would no longer be safe after a year or so. " After a year or so, it will no longer be safe. "The Great Elder sighed.
Hearing this, Teng Qingshan only smiled.
Compared to the Desolate of the Nine Prefectures, the three thousand Li Dreamy Cloud Swampland was probably much larger!
"Let the Whole Gale Eagle descend." The Great Elder hastily said. Through Teng Qingshan's introduction, he knew that this bird-type demonic beast was called the Whole Gale Eagle.
"Little Grey."
Teng Qingshan patted the feathers on the neck of the Whole Gale Eagle. The Whole Gale Eagle immediately let out a high-pitched cry and dived down.
… …
Outside the eastern gate of the Dreamy Cloud Ancient City.
Teng Qingshan and the Great Elder Mu Wang walked side by side towards the gate of the city. The Whole Gale Eagle followed behind them.
"Great Elder." A convoy of carriages was waiting one Li away from the city gate.
"Brother Teng, let's get on the carriage." Mu Wang smiled and said, "Let the Whole Gale Eagle get on as well. If a demonic beast is in the city, then …"
Teng Qingshan patted the Whole Gale Eagle's feathers with a smile and pointed at the carriage.
Although the Whole Gale Eagle was unable to communicate verbally, it possessed human intelligence and could easily understand Teng Qingshan's meaning. The two humans and the bird-type demonic beast entered the carriage in succession.
"Let's go!" The Great Elder ordered.
The convoy then advanced towards the city gate.
When they arrived at the city gate, Teng Qingshan glanced through the window and noticed that anyone entering or exiting the city had to show a special number plate. "Old Brother Mu, the guards at the gate of the Dreamy Cloud Ancient City are quite strict."
"The Dreamy Cloud Ancient City belongs to the Rising Sun Trading Company. Outsiders are not allowed to enter without permission." Mu Wang said with a smile.
"As far as I know, the Dreamy Cloud Ancient City is also one of the thirty-six major cities. Your trading company is indeed powerful to be able to monopolize this major city and not allow others to enter. " Teng Qingshan exclaimed in admiration. The Great Elder Mu Wang smiled and said, "The Dreamy Cloud Ancient City was built by our trading company. For over three thousand years, it has always belonged to our trading company."
A trading company monopolized a city for over three thousand years.
It was simply unbelievable.
After the convoy entered the city, they advanced rapidly along the streets. Not long after, they arrived at the entrance of a luxurious palace.
"The Dreamy Cloud Ancient City occupies an area of several Li. As for the Rising Sun City, it is a city within a city, occupying an area of several Li. "The Great Elder explained," Now, we have already entered the Rising Sun City. My teacher is also in the Rising Sun City. "
Teng Qingshan exclaimed inwardly in admiration.
The Rising Sun Trading Company's conduct already had the demeanor of the great sects of the nine prefectures. The great sects of the nine prefectures occupied a county city and then built a city within a city.
"Great Elder, we have arrived." A voice came from outside.
"Let's disembark." The Great Elder smiled and led Teng Qingshan and the Whole Gale Eagle down the carriage.
Beautiful maids could be seen everywhere in the Rising Sun City. Occasionally, a group of patrolling soldiers could be seen.
"Brother Teng, do you know how many soldiers there are in the Dreamy Cloud Ancient City?" The Great Elder asked with a smile.
"One hundred thousand?" Teng Qingshan guessed.
"Two hundred thousand!" The Great Elder smiled. It was obvious that he was proud of the trading company.
"Two hundred thousand soldiers? That's even more than the great clans. "Teng Qingshan sighed with emotion.
"The population of the Dreamy Cloud Ancient City is nearly one million. Other than the two hundred thousand soldiers, the rest of the population … … .are the descendants of the Mu Clan." The Great Elder continued.
"What? The Mu Clan? "
Teng Qingshan froze. Almost everyone in a city was from the same clan? Was that possible?
"The Rising Sun Trading Company … …" Teng Qingshan stared at the Great Elder in surprise and said, "Brother Mu, I know a few people in the Rising Sun Trading Company. All of them have the surname Mu. Could it be …?"
"It seems that Brother Teng knows very little about the Rising Sun Trading Company. This is not a secret! In the Rising Sun Trading Company, almost all the stewards are from the Mu Clan, and the elders are definitely from the Mu Clan! The Rising Sun Trading Company is also the trading company of the Mu Clan. "The Great Elder smiled and said," I thought Brother Teng knew about it. "
This was actually not a secret. All the great clans knew about it.
"Amazing." Teng Qingshan exclaimed.
"Other than the army, 99% of the population in the city are from the Mu Clan?" Teng Qingshan was even more astonished. His hometown, Teng Jia Village, only had over two thousand people.
However, the Mu Clan had nearly eight hundred thousand people!
If the people scattered all over the world were added, the population would probably exceed one million.
"This is not strange. The Mu Clan was a great clan three thousand years ago! As the clan passed down from generation to generation, the population increased! Over three thousand years … … .how many people are there now? "The Great Elder was extremely proud." The main branch of the Mu Clan has eight branches, and the side branches have seventy-nine branches. Under the side branches, there are also many branches. "
When Teng Qingshan heard this, he exclaimed inwardly.
This was such a prosperous clan. If only … … his Teng Clan could be so prosperous, it would be enough.
"For example, the bloodline of Yu the Great and the bloodline of Duanmu Deity can only flourish for a short period of time. The bloodline of the Mu Clan is the most suitable for the clan to develop." Teng Qingshan also had some ideas about the future development of Teng Jia Village.
The two chatted as they walked.
"Brother Teng, my teacher's residence is in front. Wait here for a while. I will go inform him, "the Great Elder said with a smile.
"This is the residence of the Dreamy Cloud Martial Immortal?"
Looking at the ordinary-looking palace before him, Teng Qingshan's heart tightened.
