The patriarch of the Hu family is a middle-aged man with a slightly chubby body.

Fifty or sixty years old,

Mustache, small eyes,

The form is clear,

looks a little like the profiteer in the TV series that Zhang Qingyuan watched in his previous life.

Seeing in the crowd,

Zhang Qingyuan, who was dressed in the costume of the outer gate of the Yunshui Sect,

hurriedly stepped forward,

"But the immortal of the Yunshui Sect who took over the task of exterminating the spirit devouring rat is really a young and handsome man, worthy of being a disciple of the Xianmen, Hu Yongan, the head of the Xia Hu family, has just arrived in the immortals, and there is a long way to welcome, the cold house banquet has been prepared, please come to the immortals. ”

Hu Yongan smiled all over his face,

Enthusiastic

There was humility in the tone, and there was flattery in the words.

The shape is very similar to the traitors in some war dramas.

Zhang Qingyun's original smile froze.

Some shame,

The hands arched slightly stiffly:

Patriarch Hu laughed, he couldn't afford to be a young man, let alone the title of immortal. If you don't give up, Patriarch Hu can call Zhang Qingyuan directly. ”

Hu Yongan knelt down and licked the words of flattery,

made Zhang Qingyuan's face flush slightly.

Yunshui Sect is a well-deserved overlord within a radius of thousands of miles, yes,

But

There are nearly 100,000 disciples outside the entire sect!

This huge base, if it is an ordinary outer disciple, it is okay for others to give you face, but if you don't give it, then it is not a fart.

Before going out on a mission,

Zhang Qingyuan also collected some information slightly.

This Qingshan Town Hu family,

The first generation of ancestors was an ordinary disciple of the outer gate of the Yunshui Sect, and he failed to be promoted to the inner gate in the three big competitions within ten years, so he was left the sect and assigned to the area under the jurisdiction of the Yunshui Sect to manage the affairs of the mortal world.

Until old age,

From the same door, I learned the news of the appearance of a spiritual spring in Qingshan Village,

Then he said goodbye to the old man like a sect and resigned from the position of managing mortal affairs.

With a few children and nephews who were cultivated later,

To Castle Peak Village,

After a fierce fight,

finally occupied the spiritual spring near Qingshan Village,

Thus took root,

Successfully laid the foundation of a small Xiuzhen family and began the journey of several generations of inheritance.

Within the Yunshui Sect's sphere of influence,

Those numerous and unpopular miniature Xiuzhen family forces were all born from this.

During this period,

The sect will not be of any help.

At most, the ancestor of the Hu family relied on some connections in the sect to make the subsequent sect recognize the establishment of the Hu family's position in Lingquan.

If the ancestors of the Hu family failed in the struggle and died.

The sect will not have any ideas for coming out.

Anyway, whether it is a disciple from an outer sect of the sect or a small force from outside, after occupying the spiritual spring and cultivating the spiritual field, more than half of the harvest needs to be paid tribute to the sect.

the status of the outer disciples,

That's all.

Unless it's some mad guy who maliciously provokes,

Otherwise, the entire Yunshui Sect's 100,000 outer disciples,

There are those who are secretly robbed and killed on a mission, there are those who take revenge on enemies, there are those who hunt and kill by demon beasts, there are those who are trapped in dangerous ruins and caves and are killed by the formation, and there is a possibility that there will be outer disciples who die every day.

Which sect leader will spend so much time,

Paying attention to these insignificant disciples every day, and using them as the life and death of many outer disciples who cultivate cannon fodder?

Zhang Qingyuan's own positioning,

It's clear.

Do not enter the inner door,

After all, it's an insignificant ant.

Only those characters in the inner gate of the Yunshui Sect are qualified to be called "Immortal Chief" by outsiders.

"Worthy of it, he has already entered the late stage of the Lingyuan Realm at a young age, and it is almost certain that he will enter the inner door in the future, how can he not be called a young man?"

"How old are you, how old is Hu, cheeky, how about calling you Little Brother Zhang?"

Hu Yongan treats people tactfully,

Handle everything exquisitely.

Zhang Qingyuan has a lot of words.

But after some politeness,

Zhang Qingyuan is colorful:

"Patriarch Hu doesn't need to be too polite, Zhang came this time because he was entrusted to solve the spirit devouring rat, and asked the patriarch to take Zhang to Lingtian to inspect it, so as to make plans as soon as possible. ”

Zhang Qingyuan is clear,

He's here to do the task, not to win over relationships.

"Naturally. ”

Speaking of the Soul Eater,

Hu Yongan's face was also solemn, and his face showed resentment.

"It's all because of that damn soul devouring rat, this season's Lingtian output has been reduced by at least thirty percent, little brother Zhang, you must solve the damn scourge for your brother!"

subsequently

At Zhang Qingyuan's strong request,

The crowd did not go back to Hu's house to rest for one night, but went directly through Qingshan Town and came to the mountain behind the town.

Lingtian is not in Qingshan Town,

Instead, it is in a low-lying valley in the mountains behind Qingshan Town.

Surrounded by hills,

tree-shading,

There is a dense fog during the period.

The group stood in front of the thick fog,

I saw Hu Yongan take out a jade talisman and pour spiritual power into the jade talisman towards the dense fog in front of him.

Lingtian's affairs,

Matters

In order to prevent thieves from stealing spiritual objects, or other insects and beasts from spoiling it, it is a tightly guarded place in any force, and more or less a formation is arranged around it.

But the dense fog that blocks the woods in front of me,

It should be the cheapest low-level phantom array in the Hu family's Congfang City, which can only confuse the line of sight, and it has no lethality at all.

Because

Zhang Qingyuan did not sense the presence of water vapor from the dense fog.

It's very simple to deal with this formation,

If you close your eyes and walk in one direction without looking, you will naturally be able to easily walk out of the range of the phantom array.

With Hu Yongan's manipulation,

The dense fog of the woods ahead spreads a road,

Zhang Qingyuan walked into the formation with Hu Yongan and a few others.

Through a relatively deep passage,

The line of sight in front of you,

For one of the bright,

Seeing ahead,

It is a small basin surrounded by hills,

basin center,

Twenty acres of fields have been opened,

The fields are full of spiritual things,

More than three-quarters of them are planted with lush Linggu seedlings, the tail of the seedlings is heading and filling, and the green valley waves are swaying with the wind.

The remaining quarter,

It is full of flowers and green, colorful and various spiritual plants.

There is a small stream rising with water vapor around the surroundings, which flows slowly around the spiritual field.

"This is it!"

Hu Yongan put Zhang Qingyuan in the spiritual field,

Pointing to the Linggu crops that were balding down from the middle.

"That damn Spirit Eater Rat, I found it appearing nearby half a month ago, ruining the trail of Spirit Valley...... In order to prevent that damn beast from causing more damage, we have been sending people to watch around day and night for the past few days, and it has been to no avail!"

"That beast is so cunning, very good at concealment, and so fast that there is no way to do it!"

Speaking of the Soul Eater,

Hu Yongan is the one who gnashed his teeth.

You know,

Spirit Valley is not a mortal grain crop, they can only grow one crop a year.

And

The part of the tribute to the Yunshui Sect will also be reduced by the slightest bit because of the Spirit Devouring Rat.

It's not just the Spirit Valley that the Spirit Eater is ruining

It is the heart of their Hu family!

Zhang Qingyuan groaned,

Carefully walk into the spiritual field that is like the depression of the Mediterranean,

Aside the crops around you,

Ground

The dried Linghe that had been sawed down by the Spirit Eater was scattered, and the gnawing fragments scattered around the rhizome could still be seen on the side.

Pick up a small piece of breach,

Look closely,

Silent for a moment,

Zhang Qingyuan pinched a French seal with both hands,

spiritual power operation,

development tracing,

Appear!
