Chapter 51: Concubine Yan
At full cost, Zishang had stayed in the half-step Qi Refining Realm for nearly four years, accumulating a lot of rudimentary true qi. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Coupled with the recent physical transformation of the Blood Wang Star Vine, it was almost impossible for Zishang to break through the Qi Refining Realm.
He only needed one or two Qi Condensing Pills to provide enough spiritual energy, and he was able to open up the sea of dantian qi, and then condense the rudimentary true qi and transform it into true true qi.
The Qi Condensing Pill Zishang didn't have it, but he had a more advanced "Xuanling Pill".
One Xuanling Pill has the aura of nine Qi Condensing Pills!
Just because Zishang dared to come like this, his physical fitness had reached the limit of the fivefold realm of qi refining, and he could fully withstand a large amount of spiritual energy, and his absorption efficiency was also high.
If it is an ordinary half-step Qi Refining Realm, not only will a large amount of spiritual energy be wasted, but it may not be stable enough when condensing the cyclone.
After four years of precipitation, Zishang's foundation is very solid, and he has no worries about condensing the true qi cyclone.
It's just that the advanced Qi Refining Realm is not something that can be done overnight, so you have to find a way to squeeze in a few days and find a place with beautiful scenery and pure spiritual energy to retreat.
Thinking about it, they came to a small restaurant called "Jucai".
This is one of the only two small restaurants in Luyi, and the other is the "Jinqian" restaurant, both of which are Cai Mi's properties.
The name of this red fruit is really in line with the style of Mr. "Fortune Fans"!
After entering the store, nine people surrounded the two tables.
"Little Er, order!"
Baili Tiger shouted loudly.
"Come on!"
A person came out of the back hall, looking like a monkey spirit.
Approaching them, he asked with an exaggerated smile:
"What are you ordering? It's a menu over there!"
The guy pointed to the wall on one side, and there were more than a dozen long wooden boards hanging on the wall, on which were written the names of the dishes and the introductions of the restaurant.
Baili Hu leaned against the table, his right elbow on the table, and looked at the menu with a chirp.
"Hey, man!"
The merchant asked the shopkeeper on the side, "Why don't you have a price for the dishes here?"
The shopkeeper smiled, then regained his smile and replied, "Let's eat here first, and then settle the account." ”
Several other people also realized something, and they all stared at the shopkeeper, although they were not bad for money, but they didn't want to be slaughtered.
"How much does that spicy fish cost?"
Baili Cat asked, pointing to a menu.
"Uh......" The shopkeeper paused for a moment and said cautiously: "Two hundred copper shells." ”
Two hundred copper shells for one serving of spicy fish, which is five times the normal price!
Black shop!
Baili Mao frowned, his face was displeased, and Baili Hu directly slapped the table and stood up, pointing to the shopkeeper and said:
"Damn! You're darker than this!"
The shopkeeper was frightened by the momentum of the Baili Tiger, and quietly glanced out of the door, at this time the sun had set for a while, but the sky was not completely dark.
He muttered weakly, "It's not very dark, it's not dark yet......"
Bailihu's cheeks twitched, and then he said angrily: "Why do you want to be darker!"
The shopkeeper shrank his head, secretly looked at a few people, and didn't dare to speak.
If you want to say that the guy in this black store will definitely not be a coward, originally when he encountered such a customer, the shopkeeper would call out the big man who protected the store very horizontally, and "explained" "cordially".
However, a man who came two days ago was also because he saw that their shop was dark, so the shopkeeper beckoned the big men in the restaurant to "explain" to him.
As a result, I saw that the man "swished" a few times, and seven or eight big men lay on the ground and howled.
It's miserable, it's miserable......
The crotch of the shopkeeper was "leaking" at that time, and he knelt on the ground "with an eighty-year-old mother and a child waiting to be fed" begging to be let go.
After apologizing for a while, he was finally reluctantly forgiven, and the shopkeeper waited for him with a handful of snot and tears.
I just don't know why that person's face is black......
Didn't even eat a bite of the meal......
And put the plate in his face......
So he had a psychological shadow, and now look at these young people, the heavenly court is open, the bearing is extraordinary, and it is likely that they are powerful martial artists, and he can't afford to provoke them.
And now the restaurant has no thugs to do.
Just as Baili Tiger was shouting, a man in his thirties walked into the store.
Looking at these nine young people, I couldn't help but stop.
Baili Cat felt something and looked back.
The two looked at each other, both stunned.
The man reacted first, smiled and clenched his fists in greeting:
"Brother Baili, long time no see!"
Baili Mao's eyes moved slightly, and he replied with a fist:
"Hehe, I didn't expect my brother to remember me!"
The man walked over, sat down at the table of the Hundred Miles Cat, and said:
"Of course I remember! After all, he is also a genius of the Ten Great Families. Come on, come on, today I please. ”
The shopkeeper shrunk his neck and quietly retreated, he was the evil star two days ago, since he was going to eat, that was how to be extravagant.
Can't ask for money yet......
After sitting down, the man said, "I heard that you brothers have won the title of Eight Heroes of a Hundred Miles in the rivers and lakes!
Baili Cat replied lightly: "Where is it, we just draw a knife to help when the road is uneven." Don't make fun of us anymore, brother. ”
"Hehe, you're really low-key. By the way, won't you introduce me to your brother?" the man said.
"In the next hundred miles of lion, the word is fierce. ”
"My name is Baili Hu...... No words. ”
……
Several people named each other.
When it was the turn of the sub-merchant, the man let out a "huh".
"Brother Baili, aren't you the Eight Heroes? This little brother is ......"
Without waiting for Baili Mao to answer, Zishang said first: "My name is Baili Shang!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, glanced at Zishang, and immediately understood.
Baili Cat also reacted quickly, and continued without a pause:
"He is a junior of our family, and he came out a few months ago on a special mission, and he met us by accident, and he happened to take him with him on the way. ”
The man also did not suspect that it was normal for some of the family's secret tasks to be handed over to people who were not easily noticed.
After looking Shang up and down for a moment, he said, "At such a young age, he actually has a half-step Qi Refining Realm realm!
Baili Cat nodded and did not speak again.
After that, they had a big meal, chatted about some experiences, and then prepared to go back to their rooms.
"Brother Baili, let's talk!"
The man said to the cat, then got up and walked outside.
Baili Cat hesitated for a while and asked the others to go back first and go out alone.
Back in the room on the second floor, a group of people chattered and guessed the purpose of the man's search for the Baili Cat.
Zishang leaned against the window and looked at the two people talking under the tree by the moonlight.
The Baili Cat was sometimes surprised, sometimes frowned, and sometimes had a solemn and silent face.
After chatting for about half an hour, the two of them gave up.
When he returned to the house, Baili Hu asked Baili Cat in a hurry: "Boss, who is this Yan? What did he talk to you about?"
Yu Yan is the man in his early thirties.
Baili Cat looked complicated and recalled:
"Yu Yan, from one of the two oldest families among the ten major families, the Fei family. He was one of the top 10 players at the last mini-summit and finished seventh. ”
The last small summit was ten years ago, and two people from the concubine family and the Feng family each entered the top ten at that small summit.
There is also one person in the top ten of the Baili family, but it is not a Baili Cat, and the Baili Cat was ranked sixteenth at the time.
That time, the Baili cat asked Yu Yan for advice, so he recognized it.
"Counting the time, he is only thirty-two years old now, and his realm is ...... It has reached the late stage of the Sixfold Realm!" Baili Cat's eyes were a little sharp and gloomy.
"Thirty-two years old, in the late stage of the Sixth Realm of Qi Refining!, that's amazing!" Zishang said in surprise.
Baili Mao said in a low voice: "But his former talent is only half a catty or eight taels with me, and it stands to reason that he is now at most a five-fold realm." ”
"Maybe he's got some kind of opportunity, didn't we also get that blood vine?" Baili Hu said disapprerovingly.
"No!" Baili Mao had a serious face, staring at Baili Hu with gloomy eyes: "The reason why his strength has leaped so fast is because of a secret project of Ying Hao!"
The room fell silent instantly, and several people's eyes widened, a little dull and incomprehensible.
When the corner merchant heard this, he raised his eyebrows, and then a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes.
He didn't tell me the specific content of the project, but only said that fifty percent of the warriors who participated in the project had a big leap in strength. ”
Zishang's eyes narrowed and he asked, "Fifty percent?"
Baili Cat said in a low voice: "He doesn't talk about this, but looking at his expression, it is estimated that it is all wasted!"
Except for Zishang's eyes, the others were all agitated, and they set off a monstrous wave in their hearts.
"What kind of project is this?"
Baili Leopard sighed on the side.
Zishang snorted coldly and asked again, "Then what is the so-called matter when he was looking for you just now?"
Baili Cat nodded and said, "Of course, there are actually two things he is looking for me." ”
"First, he participated in Ying Hao's secret project, and now he has left the concubine family to work as a tax collector in the household department of the Dahao Dynasty. He was responsible for collecting tribute for thousands of miles in the area, and he was in charge of hundreds of tax collectors. ”
"He analyzed the various changes in the situation and the stakes for me, wanted to win me into the plan, and wanted me to find an opportunity to serve in the central government of the Dahao Dynasty. ”
Baili Hu scratched his head and said suspiciously: "His brain is in water, right? It's okay to be an official in the Hao Dynasty? How much can you have? If you are not free, how can you compare to the life of an idle cloud and a wild crane like me?"
Baili Cat lowered his head and muttered: "This is also very strange to me, but Yu Yan refuses to say why he did this, just hints to me, and when the time comes, I ......will know the benefits."
Zishang's eyes suddenly lit up, others may not know why Yu Yan is a minor official in the Dahao Dynasty, but as the first descendant of the Shang royal family, he naturally knows that there is something called "dynasty luck"!
Luck, shadowless, formless, colorless and tasteless, but real!
In everyone's life, there is luck to accompany them, the difference is that the strength of luck is different, and the acquired luck can also be plundered and reversed.
In some special years, there will be one or several people with strong luck in heaven and earth, and their luck can affect the world and be the whirlpool of the world's luck sea.
These people are often referred to as the "protagonists" or "protagonists of heaven and earth".
All living beings are weak and small, and their luck is almost zero, so they are just supporting roles, and there are various tricks in the drama of time and space.
The dynasty is a super community led by the protagonist of the atmospheric fortune, condensing the luck of all living beings, responding to heaven and earth, and being recognized by heaven and earth.
When human beings were just born, their luck was scattered and weak, and it was difficult for them to survive in heaven and earth.
Later, human beings formed a community of luck in different situations such as tribes, clans, and countries, and the luck of qi turned into a whole, and one plus one was greater than two.
If you serve in the dynasty, you will be protected by the fortune of the dynasty, which will change the trajectory of your life to a certain extent, and the blessing of luck can also improve the efficiency of cultivation, enhance the perception of all things in heaven and earth, and so on.
It can also be said that there are many benefits and infinite uses.
Of course, the magic and benefits are related to the size of the luck, that is to say, the higher the official position, the greater the power, and the more luck blessings you enjoy, the more obvious the effect will be.
A tax collector like Yu Yan does not have an obvious effect on the blessing of luck.
Baili Cat was right not to agree with Yan Yan's wooing.
"Didn't he talk to you about two things, and the other?" Zishang asked, diversioning the subject.
"Oh, after I rejected Yan's suggestion, he told me something else. "Baili Cat Road:
"Isn't he a tax collector in the household department now? There are three landlords in this area, all of whom are very strong, although Yu Yan is stronger and is not afraid of them, but there is one thing he needs our help with. ”
"Oh?"
"Is there anything else he needs us to help with?"
The crowd couldn't help but be surprised.
Zishang jumped out of the sentence: "What about the reward?"
Baili Mao was dumbfounded, glanced at Zishang strangely, and then said: "Ten years ago, a prisoner whose strength was at the peak of qi refining escaped from prison, and recently those ghosts of the Dark Department found clues in this area, but the fugitive was very alert and hiding. They speculated that the fugitives should have ties to one or more of the three major landowners. ”
"Yu Yan hopes that we can break into the homes of the three major landlords, and then obtain information to assist the Dark Bureau. ”
"The reward given by the Dark Nether Agency is a secret book for cultivating souls!"
Baili Hu questioned: "The secret book for cultivating the soul? It's too, if you don't want to be paid, you just say it, and you actually fool us like three-year-old hairy children!"
Baili Lion also agreed with Baili Hu's statement, and said: "Yes, the secret book for cultivating the soul is hard to find, how can we be given such a high reward because of a fugitive at the peak of qi refining." ”
Zishang also looked at Baili Cat curiously, he couldn't believe it, but he felt that things didn't seem to be so simple.
Baili Mao said seriously: "I didn't believe it at the time, but he revealed to me that the secret book for cultivating the soul is an innovative product of the Ministry of Rites, although the effect is average, but it can really increase the soul power." ”
"It is currently being distributed in limited quantities as an internal reward. As one of the geniuses of the ancient family, Yu Yan joined the household department, so he has a copy. ”
Everyone pondered for a while, Zishang was in the corner, his eyes flashed, and a bold plan gradually took shape, and he couldn't help but smile evilly.
After thinking for a while, Baili Cat asked everyone to raise their hands to vote, only Baili Lion and Baili Leopard felt that it was inappropriate.
"Okay! That's it! We've taken the task!"
