Chapter 117: Offering Treasure
As the gate to the Lingshan began, the long procession began to move slowly, and no one maintained order, but the people who came here seemed to silently abide by the rules, delivered the goods in order, changed money, and went home, without too much noise, and the most words that everyone said in their mouths were "Thank you to the Lingshan Immortals".
"Hei Niu, you and Gu Yue are here to push the cart and line up, I'll go over to find Daxian first, and wait for me at the exit after you finish handing over the goods." Chen Dali instructed the two of them to walk out of the queue alone and go to the front, Gu Yue and Chen Lei both understood that Chen Dali had been wrapping the spirit stone in a cloth and hiding it in his arms, and this time he was afraid that he was going to give a gift.
Chen Dali walked to the front of the line alone, this is the place where the Lingshan faction received the goods, and saw three young people sitting at a table, one responsible for receiving and counting. One is responsible for keeping track of what is received and calculating the money due, while the other is responsible for sending the money and moving the goods aside for arrangement. Not far from the three men stood a slightly older man, watching a few young men operate with his hands behind his back.
This is the tradition of the Lingshan sect to receive goods, and a formal disciple with a higher qualification is in charge of supervising the receipt of goods by the three out-of-mountain helpers. The three people who came to receive the goods today Chen Dali looked at them all with eyes, it seems that they were recruited recently, this supervisor Chen Dali is very familiar, this person has been responsible for the work of receiving goods for decades, and he is more familiar with the old households in the surrounding villages, and he can't help but ask curiously when he sees Chen Dali coming over: "Lao Chen, why haven't you queued up to send it today?"
"Oh, hello Daxian, I'm looking for you to have some things, but it's not convenient to talk here, can you talk to me alone?" Chen Dali said respectfully.
"Oh, what kind of big immortal is not a big immortal, Lao Chen, we have known each other for decades, can you change this title, you come with me." This person seemed to be very familiar with Chen Dali, and he went down the steps and pulled Chen Dali to a small stone house on the side. Lao Li in the distance happened to see this scene, and couldn't help but be a little confused, what was this Chen Dali doing.
Chen Dali followed the person from the Lingshan faction to the stone house on the side, which is where the helpers on the Lingshan usually work and rest, so the things in it are readily available, and the two of them came to the house and closed the door. What's the matter?"
"I tell you that recently my son and his friend went into the mountains to collect medicine, and found a treasure. You also know that our family has wanted to produce a Lingshan Sect disciple for several generations, but there has been no hope. I don't have any hope for my son Hei Niu anymore, but I want him to find something to do on the Spirit Mountain, so it's good to get into the immortal qi, maybe the grandson will be able to cultivate. Chen Dali told the purpose of coming.
"Oh, Lao Chen, you just send your son to the entrance test to try, maybe it's okay, why spend so much effort. Besides, even if you really don't have talent, your family has lived here for generations, and all the people who receive goods on Lingshan know each other, what's so difficult to find a helper's job, and why do you spend so much effort to find treasures and gifts. This person immediately heard what Chen Dali meant, and hurriedly persuaded him not to drill the horns like this.
"Then how can it be done, several generations of our family have relied on the blessings of Lingshan to live a good life, how can I arrange for my son to go up the mountain by relying on familiarity, I am always worried in my heart if I don't send you some treasures, it's better to do this." Chen Dali said stubbornly.
"Okay then, let's see what kind of treasure you are talking about, and our Lingshan will pay you according to the value of the treasure. Then look at the fact that we have known each other for so many years, I will arrange for your son to do a test alone, if he has talent, he will be accepted into Lingshan to study, in case it is really not suitable for cultivation, then I will personally take him and let him be a helper, it just so happens that I lack a helper to get started. This person saw Chen Dali so stubborn. didn't say anything, but thought of the most perfect method for Chen Dali.
"That's great, thank you Wong Tai Sin. Chen Dali heard this person say this, and thanked him happily again and again.
"Oh, I said it, don't be a great immortal. I'm not happy to call it that again. Call me Huang Wen or Lao Huang, Brother Huang is okay, otherwise I will know you for nothing in the past few decades. This Lingshan disciple named Huang Wen said.
"Okay, Huang Wenda...... Eldest brother. You see, this is what Black Bull found the other day. Chen Dali didn't dare to shirk it, but just lowered his head and took out the cloth bag he was carrying from his arms and opened it layer by layer.
Huang Wen looked at Chen Dali solemnly opening the layers of cloth bags, it seemed that there were more than a dozen layers, and felt a little funny, what treasure could this Chen Dali find as a farmer, and he took it out so solemnly. But when Chen Dali completely opened the cloth bag and leaked out the contents inside, he didn't think so, only to see Huang Wen's mouth open in surprise, and he couldn't speak.
"It's... This... This... Could it be that this is a spirit stone? This is an extremely high-grade spirit stone!" Huang Wen stammered as he spoke excitedly.
"Is this a treasure? I don't know what a treasure looks like, I just know that what can shine is a treasure, don't you see it? Chen Dali looked at Huang Wen weakly and said.
"Of course it is, Lao Chen, don't come here anymore, put this away, and I'll take you to see my master." Huang Wen calmed down his excitement and asked Chen Dali to put away the spirit stone and take Chen Dali out and walk towards the spirit mountain.
Some of the people queuing up around knew Chen Dali, and they were all curious about what was going on today, why Lao Chen, a fool, was taken to the mountain, and everyone speculated and talked about it.
After a while, in an antique house on the Ling Mountain, an old man sat in the middle, Huang Wen and Chen Dali stood in front respectfully, and the old man was holding the spirit stone brought by Chen Dali: "What you just said is true?" The old man asked Chen Dali unhurriedly, his eyes flashing with fine light.
"Yes, Daxian, this is how my son found this treasure, he told me everything. We don't lie. Chen Dali said respectfully.
"Well, Huang Wen. The old man turned to Huang Wen and said.
"Master. Huang Wen also respectfully saluted.
"Just do what you just said, this spirit stone will be placed here with me first, and the money will be paid to this Boss Chen according to the market price, as for his son's affairs...... You take him for a test, and no matter what the test result is, you can accept him as an apprentice and make him an official disciple. If the talent is really not good, I can consume some of the power of this spirit stone to improve his cultivation foundation, so that it will not be in vain for others to have such a treasure. The old man instructed Huang Wen.
"Yes, master, disciple knows. Huang Wen respectfully received the order.
"Thank you, Daxian, my family will never forget your great kindness for several lifetimes. Chen Dali heard the old man say this, and the excited old man burst into tears, and he knelt on the ground with a puff and kowtowed to the old man.
"Don't be like this, Boss Chen, I should thank you for sending me this kind of treasure, hurry up, go back and call your son and Huang Wen to go up the mountain." The old man stopped Chen Dali and told him to hurry back and let his son come to Lingshan.
"Daxian, it's not that I'm greedy, it's just that I still have a small request, begging Daxian to agree to me. Chen Dali didn't get up, but continued to kowtow and said something that surprised the old man.
"Oh?"
