The old man did not announce his name, and walked with Cheng Hai in another direction, and after a while the figure disappeared into the woods.

Looking at the token and the two short thorns in his hand, Jin Ling felt a little confused.

Sunken iron is a very valuable weapon casting material. It mostly comes from the bottom of the sea or rivers. It has been refined and stamped by submerged water for many years. It has a hard and sharp texture and is heavy to buy.

It has better conductivity of immortal power than fine iron and more powerful killing power, so it is very popular among middle-class immortals such as immortal masters and immortals.

Its price is also more expensive, often more than ten times that of fine iron, and good-quality heavy iron can even be dozens of times more expensive. Moreover, it has a price but no market, and it is difficult to see it on the market. Even if it does appear, it is often within a short period of time.

The inside was swept away.

The old man's two heavy iron thorns were not heavy, adding up to about 11 or 2 kilograms, but on the market, it would not be a problem to exchange them for several thousand gold yuan.

Putting them into the ring, the two of them continued on their way.

"Young Master, look at the ground." Yang Lixuan pointed to a large pool of black and smelly blood on the ground and said, "This seems to be the blood of a monster."

"The monsters attacked Fairyland before. Didn't the village masters and others retreat completely to protect their homeland?" Jin Ling said, looking up into the distance, he saw a few puffs of smoke still floating in the sky above Lingshan Fairyland in the distance.

The two walked all the way and came to the end of the rope bridge. The number of immortals guarding the bridge increased a lot, eight of them, fully armed. Under their feet and even on the bridge, there were a lot of blood stains and traces of battle damage.

.

"Stop! Who is this!" The immortals stopped them rudely.

"People from Xianxiang." Jin Ling showed the pass issued by Xianxiang that day.

The immortals looked at the two teenagers suspiciously. Both of them were a little tired, their breath was a little weak, and their faces were stained with blood from the battle. Especially the fat boy's arms were wrapped in blood cloth, obviously injured.

The expressions of the immortal guards softened: "Have you gone up the mountain to meet the monsters?"

"Well." Jin Ling didn't want to explain more and asked, "What's going on in Xianxiang?"

"Xianxiang was attacked by a group of demon wolves, said to be the blood wolf riders of the Xueyin clan, and suffered heavy losses." The guards said, "Fortunately, the village owner and the entire immortals in Xianxiang came back in time and fought back.

them."

"Let's go." The guards handed back the tokens and waved to let them go.

Entering the city defense wall of Lingshan Fairy Township, the closer they got, the more bloodstains Jin and Ling saw. There were also corpses of people and demon wolves that had not had time to be cleared away. Soul-calling pots were already hanging next to the corpses of many people.

White flags and relatives surrounded the body, crying together.

Some immortals were loading the corpses of the Demon Wolf and the Xueyin clan into trucks, preparing to transport them to the village lord's mansion.

Many parts of the city wall have been damaged and collapsed. The gates and walls are stained with blood. Broken clothes and items are everywhere. After passing through the city wall, many of the houses inside are dark and have been burned by fire. Many people are

The house was completely burned, and I cried with my head in my arms.

"Jin Ling!" Yang Pu, who was on guard on the city wall with blood all over his body, ran down and breathed a long sigh of relief, "Thank God, you are back safely!"

"Is Xianxiang suffering a great loss?" Jin Ling asked.

"It's quite large. More than forty-nine immortals were killed in the battle, and countless people were injured and disabled." Yang Pu said sadly and angrily, "As for the people, we just did a simple count, and there were 261 dead, and the same number of injured.

There were countless houses burned, and about seventy houses were burned.”

Jin Ling thought of Mr. Sun: "Mr. Sun, are Mr. Sun Yihan okay? And that one, the immortal pharmacist Pu Xin, Mr. Pu?"

"I'm not sure what their current situation is. They have been patrolling the city wall and have not been able to leave." Yang Pu said, "The number of casualties was reported by Special Envoy Zhou. I seem to have heard that there was also a fire there."

"I'll go take a look." Jin Ling became anxious and hurriedly ran in the direction of Mr. Sun's idea. Yang Lizuan followed closely behind.

The prosperous Lingshan Fairyland, after experiencing this bloody disaster, almost turned into a deserted city. Every house closed its doors and did not dare to go out, the shops were closed, and everything was deserted.

Finally arriving at Yiyuan, Jin Ling felt deeply regretful when he saw it. It turned out that several buildings where Mr. Sun stored hundreds of thousands of books had been burned down to only the building shelves. In the courtyard, Mr. Sun

And dozens of disgraced scholars, holding the few remaining important books, looked at the ruins of the Garden in a daze.

Many people have cried until their eyes are red.

For scholars, books are their life. After years of painstaking efforts to collect and compile so many books and materials, they were all destroyed in a bloody disaster.

"Sir, are you okay?" Jin Ling stepped forward to see if Mr. Sun was injured.

"I'm fine." Mr. Sun said with emotion, "But, such a big library is gone, half of my life is gone, and half of my soul is gone. In other words, most of my life's hard work has been burned, and I feel heartbroken.

ah."

He grabbed the clothes around his heart, feeling extremely sad.

"As long as people are still there, the library can be rebuilt." Jin Ling encouraged him, "How can a living person die from urination? You and so many scholars, each of you copies ten books a year, which is hundreds of books. And

, you can also spend money to search and buy books from all over the fairy city! Rebuilding Yiyuan is not a difficult task!"

After hearing this, Mr. Sun came to his senses. But as soon as he glanced at the scholars, he sighed again, "These people don't know anything, they just know how to buy books, search for books, compile books, and collect information from books."

, the Yiyuan was destroyed, and all their belongings were burned down. For a group of nerds, it will be a problem for them to eat in the future."

Hearing this, some scholars cried even louder.

Um?

There is something interesting in this statement.

Did Mr. Sun say this on purpose to himself? Or on purpose to these scholars?

Jin Ling secretly glanced at Mr. Sun again, and sure enough, the old guy was wiping his tears and winking at him secretly.

I have a good idea.

In this world, immortals and authorities value immortals over mortals, and value force over civilized governance. These scholars have been separated from Yiyuan, and it is estimated that it will be a problem to support their families. This is how he invites people's hearts and uses them as his own.

good opportunity.

But I know very well how important the knowledge in books is to the growth of strength.

Thinking of this, Jin Ling bowed deeply to Mr. Sun and the readers: "You gentlemen, I also feel deeply sorry for this unreasonable disaster. Mr. Sun has an old relationship with me and is kind to me. I can't see it with my own eyes."

He and you all are in trouble and ignore it. My son, I have a small property in Shuangshixian Village, which is not a wealthy place, but it is not a problem for you, sir, and all of you to study, repair, and support your family."

All the scholars looked at each other. This young man actually said that he would provide for them. Is it true or false? Can he do it? It's just a young man's nonsense.

Because of Mr. Sun's face, the scholars did not reprimand him on the spot.

"Gentlemen, please rest assured, I am definitely not lying!" Jin Ling bowed deeply again, "Mr. Sun is my senior, he trusts me, and I will never betray his trust! As for you who may question my rebuilding the garden,

financial resources........"
