Volume 2: Step by Step Lotus Chapter 38: I want to clear the haze and see the real scene

A few days after the competition, the university returned to its usual calm. Once everyone gets together, they still like to talk about the battle between Mengjie and Du Jundao, and in retrospect, there is no one who doesn't have a numb scalp. If you annoy Mengjie one day and are beaten by her, do you still need to be a human being?

After the end of the competition, Qingrui spoke, and the champion and runner-up of the competition entered the "Secret Realm of Gods and Demons" for one year on the second day. After three months, the three people who fought on behalf of the academy, Meng Jie, Feng Lian, and Golden Blood, could enter it to cultivate for three months.

In fact, Meng Jie has almost practiced there for the past year. But in order to balance everyone's hearts, Qingrui still has to say this.

The three of them got together that night and talked about it for one night. Golden Blood was called by Hua Mingsheng to go to the "Summer Valley" to experience and welcome the cultivation of the secret realm of gods and demons three months later.

Jin Blood took the two bottles of Xuan-grade pills given by Feng Lian and left happily.

After the golden blood left, Meng Jie handed over dozens of jade bottles to Feng Lian, and said resentfully: "Brother, what do you have to tell me, don't always bear it yourself." ”

Feng Lian picked up the jade bottle and looked at it, there were more than 200 blood returning pills and spirit gathering pills of the first grade. There are more than 50 pieces of Xuan-level first and second grades.

Meng Jie looked at his surprised expression and said with a smile: "Don't think about it, although I am in retreat, it is still easy to know about you." So don't do anything bad, I'm going to be angry. ”

Feng Lian suddenly had a feeling of weakness.

After that, Mengjie also went to the secret realm to train, and she wanted to improve her combat skills.

In Chu Xi's room, Hua Mingsheng was scolding Chu Xi, asking him to change his incorruptible abuse. Chu Xi naturally quibbled in every possible way, and he didn't change his appearance even if he died.

As soon as he saw Feng Lian, Chu Xi immediately scolded: "Bastard boy, I taught you for Shibai." Don't be rash in battle. You want to be in the limelight and want to go crazy, in case you want to hide your strength, or find an opportunity. You're the one who gets knocked out of the ring. ”

Hua Ming said angrily to Feng Lian: "Boy, if you dare to take out that sword and shake it in front of me, I will lock you up for thirty years first." ”

After saying that, he left without looking back.

Feng Lian turned his head to Chu Xi and smiled: "Master, didn't you say that you couldn't teach me anything?"

Chu Xi jumped up angrily and shouted: "Are you long-lasting, do you dare to talk back." Be careful, I'll confine you for thirty years for Old Man Hua. ”

Feng Lian hurriedly apologized, and said honestly: "What the master taught is that in the future, when this situation happens, the disciple will not care about the three seven twenty-eight, and directly knock the opponent down and fight to the death." ”

Chu Xi dissipated his anger at this time, nodded with satisfaction: "It's about the same, you have to keep your sanity at all times." There is no point in getting out of the limelight, only to knock down the opponent as quickly as possible. Don't give your opponent any chance to turn over, so you can suffer less. Some losses will kill you if you take a bite. ”

Feng Lian thought to himself that this is indeed the truth, what kind of limelight can't be out of the limelight after killing the opponent? Why take the risk, and hurt his hands to be swollen for a long time.

"Master, how should I cultivate next?"

Chu Xi said: "The content of your assessment is that the teacher has not gone to Qingyun Pavilion to collect it, and it is not time yet, so there is no arrangement for you now." As for cultivation, there is only one sentence for being a teacher. Wu Zong, known as a generation of grandmasters. You should think from the perspective of a generation of grandmasters, understand and break through. Do whatever you want. But to prepare for going to the Secret Realm of Gods and Demons, it is not a place where anyone can go. ”

Feng Lian saluted and said goodbye, and as soon as he walked outside the door, Chu Xi threw him a string of things.

When I took it, it was more than a hundred mortal-level first- and second-grade ethereal rings.

"As a teacher, I didn't have anything else, so I scraped a lot of low-level ethereal rings when I was young, and exchanged them for you in exchange for some cultivation spiritual materials. Saying that, Chu Xi smiled treacherously, "Hehe, you owe a lot of debts to your teacher now." Remember. ”

It's too late for Feng Lian to be happy, no matter if he still doesn't pay it back, he learned from the city guards and saluted: "Thank you, master." ”

Feng Lian went to the Spirit Pavilion and took out some of the spiritual materials obtained from the Demon Spirit Illusion Valley in exchange for hundreds of medicinal materials for refining mortal-grade pills. and went to the secret room to refine medicine. He wanted to complete the agreement with Wei Anfu as soon as possible, or he would not be very comfortable with it.

A few days later, Feng Lian's expression when he walked out of the secret room was haggard, but his heart was beautiful.

Coupled with the pills given by Meng Jie, he had already completed more than six hundred mortal-grade pills. There are also more than a hundred Xuan-grade pills. Four Tianxiang pills.

During this time, he turned over the second exercise of the Fire Burning Ass Technique, "Fire Dance Shining Sun", but he only listened carefully to the key points of cultivation, and he didn't have time to practice yet.

The peerless spirit void still couldn't turn the second page, but he felt that it should be about the same, that is, the soul power was slightly worse, and it shouldn't be a big problem to upgrade to another level. And he didn't dare to use the soul technique at will, so he didn't rush to see it and cultivate.

Feng Lian didn't go down the mountain immediately, but went to Qingyun Pavilion to rent a room, Meimei had a meal, and then slept well, feeling refreshed before walking down the mountain.

When I got to the intersection, I saw that there was already a sign there, and it was an expedited sign.

He followed the signs and walked into the guest room of an inn. As soon as he pushed the door in, as soon as the man inside saw him, he immediately took off his mask, knelt on his knees, and said nervously: "The doorman Jiang Shanshui pays a visit to the door master." Last time, I didn't know that you were the master of the door, and I was offended. Please punish you. ”

Feng Lian asked, "What did Wei Anfu say?"

Jiang Shanshui replied: "After the last time I met the general, the lowly general told the general the truth, and the general was furious and punished the lowly to go to the Shenri Forest to hunt down a team of hunters who had killed countless people. Only then will we inform you that you are our doorman. ”

Feng Lian asked again: "You get up first, what's the current situation on his side?"

Jiang Shanshui took out a piece of jade slip and an ethereal ring, and said, "This is the general, oh no, this is what the hall master asked the little one to bring to the door master, and the door master will know it at a glance." ”

Feng Lian didn't ask any more questions, sat down on the chair, and Jiang Shanshui immediately poured him tea. Feng Lian picked up the jade slip.

Wei Anfu suggested that the hall he had established should be named as soon as possible, and gave Feng Lian a dozen names to choose from. Let the wind be cheap. Feng Lian chose the name "Shadow Hall".

His development is very good, after layers of assessment and screening, he has accepted more than 300 people, but only more than 40 people can really enter the theater, and they are now being trained. The rest will be kept for the rest of the day, and they will be able to enter other halls in the future.

Wei Anfu wanted to use his original relationship in the army to tap some capable people in the army to join the theater and ask for Feng Lian's opinion. Feng Lian naturally agreed.

The spiritual materials sent are all for Feng Lian's cultivation, and if you need anything, please contact him at any time.

Finally, it is to remind Feng Lian that half a year has passed since their ten-year appointment.

After reading it, Feng Lian erased the divine consciousness in the jade slip and injected his divine consciousness into it. Regarding the affairs of the theater, he can make his own decisions.

He asked Wei Anfu to investigate all the details of the little princess of the Zangyu Empire, Yu Qiongxin, in the past ten years. He can't tell Golden Blood until he confirms her identity, otherwise his hopes will be disappointed, and Golden Blood's lover will go crazy.

When this was over, he asked Wei Anfu to move the forces of the Western Continent to the Eastern Continent as soon as possible.

As soon as possible, sort out a detailed information about the various sect families in the Eastern Continent. The Western Continent was almost divided by the three major empires, and he felt that the Eastern Continent was full of sects and endless battles, which was more suitable for establishing Amen.

Moreover, what he learned was that the Eastern Continent was more suitable for cultivation than this side, and the territory was also broader than the Western Continent. Meng Ying once told him that the more chaotic the place, the greater the risks and opportunities.

The elders and masters of Mo Village are all from the Eastern Continent, and if you want to find them, you can only go to the Eastern Continent.

Feng Lian finished injecting his divine sense, added two seals, and returned him to Jiang Shanshui.

He took out the string of ethereal rings given by Chu Xi and said, "Here are all the elixirs agreed with Hall Master Wei. Those Xuan-level pills are left for the brothers. There are also four Tianxiang Pills, which you have to protect specially, and everything else can be lost, but Tianxiang Dan cannot be lost. ”

Feng Lian poured the contents of the ethereal ring in Jiang Shanshui's hand into his own ethereal ring. There are more than 400 pairs of mortal-level medicinal materials, more than 100 Xuan-level medicinal materials, and more than 60 kinds of Xuan-level spiritual materials. It seems that Wei Anfu is okay, and he can actually get so many Xuan-level medicinal materials and spiritual materials.

After putting away the things, Jiang Shanshui saluted respectfully and said, "Keep the little ones in mind." If there's nothing small to do, I'll go back first. I've been waiting for the master here for three months, and I'm afraid the master will be in a hurry. ”

Seeing Feng Lian nodding, Jiang Shanshui put on a mask and disappeared like a ghost.

Feng Lian didn't stay any longer, he wanted to entrust the Chamber of Commerce to help investigate Yu Qiongxin's situation.

The Chamber of Commerce collected 100 pieces of Xuanjing from Feng Lian in advance, and promised to give him accurate information within ten days. Because Yu Qiongxin's identity is not ordinary, the price is naturally not low.

As soon as I walked out of the Chamber of Commerce, I saw that the street was bustling and lively, and I knew the general situation when I heard it.

Honglan Pavilion opened a branch in Muyun City, which was also the first branch opened by Honglan Pavilion in the Western Continent.

Listen carefully, in the main business of Honglan Pavilion, there are also various consumer information for sale. He walked over to find out.

At the entrance of the shop in Honglan Pavilion is a stone tablet engraved with their business scope. This includes the secret trading and delivery of valuables. Espionage and trading of various information and intelligence. Recovery of various debts. For assassinations of people of various ranks, this can only be decided whether to accept the order according to the requirements of the employer and the evaluation of Honglan Pavilion.

In short, the business scope is very wide, and they take on almost the most difficult and disgraceful things.

Feng Lian thought to himself that the strength of this Honglan Pavilion must be extraordinary, otherwise who would dare to take on such a business.

The gate of Honglan Pavilion is simple, but the interior decoration is very exquisite, and then go inside, there are various levels of secret rooms, and the passage is also designed to be very chic, ensuring that people will not meet.

The person who received Feng Lian was a middle-aged man, who only had a cultivation at the level of grace, and in the face of the level of Feng Lian Grandmaster, he was also neither humble nor arrogant, and he had the demeanor of everyone.

What surprised Feng Lian even more was that the person who helped him was a young man at the god court level, who was very respectful. This is a subversion of his usual perception of grading by grade.

Feng Lian didn't have any nonsense, and said directly: "I came here to ask your pavilion to help investigate the situation of Yu Qiongxin, the little princess of the Zangyu Empire, in the past ten years. It's better to have an image of her. ”

The middle-aged man waited for a while, didn't see Feng Lian say anything, and asked, "That's all?"

Feng Lian asked rhetorically, "Then what information do you need from me?" ”

The middle-aged man smiled: "Definitely." The son's investigation of her situation should be detailed to what she does every day, or the basic situation every month, or ...... every year."

Feng Lian interrupted: "I just want to know if she left the palace five to seven years ago, where she went, and what she did. ”

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "In that case, you wait a minute, we will give you an answer immediately." ”

After the young man went out, the middle-aged man chatted with Feng Lian for a while, just to ask Feng Lian about his studies in the academy, and Feng Lian felt that it was not a secret, so he picked up some things that most students had to do in their daily cultivation and life.

After a while, the young man came back and handed the middle-aged man a note and a piece of jade slip.

The middle-aged man glanced at the note, and said to Feng Lian apologetically: "Eight years ago, there was a power struggle in the royal family of the Zangyu Empire, and many people were killed and injured. Half a year later, the current emperor ascended the throne, and Princess Yuqiongxin disappeared. The information given by the royal family is that the princess is in retreat and has not participated in the battle for the royal family. Three years later, that is, five years ago, Princess Yu Qiongxin went out of the customs and served as the royal family's external reception.

"I Honglan Pavilion doesn't know where Princess Yu Qiongxin has gone in the past three years, through comprehensive analysis, Yu Qiongxin is not a retreat to cultivate, she should be under house arrest or have left the royal family. This is her image from two months ago. ”

Feng Lian took the jade slip, and when he saw Yu Qiongxin in a gorgeous dress, he really couldn't see how she resembled Xu Yanjun. However, when he saw Xu Yanjun that day, he was far away, and he didn't use his special eyesight to check it. My mind is full of dreams, and I am not impressed.

He looked at his chest according to what Ji Shenghua said, and he agreed that both of them had big breasts, but he couldn't see where it was like it, and what it didn't look like. Typical "chest blindness", it is naturally impossible to look at the chest to recognize a woman.

Feng Lian was a little regretful, but this at least gave him a glimmer of hope and asked, "I don't know how to charge." ”

The middle-aged man said with a smile: "The situation that Childe understands is not up to the charging standard of my pavilion, so it is free to serve you, and I hope that Childe can take care of Honglan Pavilion's business more in the future." ”

Feng Lian didn't expect Honglan Pavilion to be so generous, confiscated his fees, and was about to thank him, when the middle-aged man said: "You are the first guest of our Pavilion in the Western Continent, as long as you pay 10,000 Xuanjing, you can make an appointment for all kinds of intelligence collection in any branch of our Pavilion in advance in the future, without a deposit, and the most detailed information is given." I wonder if Childe has this will?"

Feng Lian remembered that in Mo Village, there was a man and a woman who lied that they were from Honglan Pavilion and were recognized by Scar, listening to the meaning of Scar's words, Honglan Pavilion seemed to be not bad. So he happily handed over 10,000 Xuanjing. In the Demon Spirit Fantasy Valley, he harvested a lot of crystals, and 10,000 Xuanjing was nothing at all.

Looking at the black token handed over by the middle-aged man, it was engraved with dense magic circles. The material of the spiritual material is also very unusual, the value is far more than 10,000 Xuanjing, it seems that the foundation of Honglan Pavilion is very thick.

Feng Lian thought for a moment and asked, "Is there a spatial passage to the Shattered Domain?"

Feng Lian has no intention of returning to the Shattered Domain at present, but wants to know if there is a spatial passage to confirm whether Yu Qiongxin is Xu Yanjun.

The middle-aged man's expression was not shocked, but Feng Lian could feel his heartbeat racing and his breath unsteady.

The middle-aged man also noticed that the turmoil in his heart couldn't be concealed at all, and said with a smile: "This news is worth one million immortal crystals." ”

One immortal crystal is equivalent to one hundred Xuanjing, and one million immortal crystals is 100 million Xuanjing, Feng Lian was almost scared into a cold sweat by this number. "Forget it, when I didn't ask." ”

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "It's okay, since Childe has obtained the black token from my Pavilion, as long as Childe is willing, he can advance this million immortal crystals in advance." ”

"Forget it, the advance will have to be repaid in the future, I think I'm too poor to be able to pay it back. Feng Lian asked again: "Can you give me the basic information of Cangwu Mountain and Qingzong in the Eastern Continent." I'd like to find out. ”

The middle-aged man readily agreed, "Yes." It's just the basic situation, a total of 500 Xuanjing is required. ”

Feng Lian heard that the price was not high, and asked, "If I want to know more about the news of Wu Yun of Cangwu Mountain, how many spars do I need?"

He didn't dare to mention Cangwu Mountain and Poison Sect at the same time, let alone Wu Yun and Meng Ying at the same time. This is too easy to reminiscent of the relationship between Wu Yun and Meng Ying, and then to connect him with Meng Jie.

The first reason for understanding Qingzong is that the flying sky on his body comes from Qingzong, and secondly, in the battle of Mocun that year, there were people from Qingzong involved, and he needs to know more about Qingzong's situation.

The middle-aged man pondered for a while, and said with some heaviness: "Our pavilion can only provide Wu Yun with information from twenty years ago, and in the past twenty years, we have also received some news from her, but before we have confirmed it, we dare not spread false rumors, which is against our principles." ”

Feng Lian nodded and said, "Yes, how much does it cost." ”

After a while, the young man returned to the secret room and handed the middle-aged man a piece of jade slip.

The middle-aged man took the jade slip, glanced at it, and said to Feng Lian: "The jade slip information is worth thirteen thousand immortal crystals. I don't know if you ......"

Feng Lian said: "No problem, I'll take it now." ”

After handing over the spar, Feng Lian got up and saluted to say goodbye.

He decided that if he had time, he would go to the Zangyu Empire in person to see if Yu Qiongxin was Xu Yanjun.
