448. Intent
Lingyu had a bad premonition.
The timing of this hunting meeting is so coincidental, does it really have nothing to do with the Frozen Crane Pond incident?
Shouldn't I have found anyone, so I specially held such a hunting tournament and waited for them to show their feet, right?
She wondered if she should pretend to be sick or something, and miss the hunting convention......
At the same time, Peach Blossom Peak.
"Ancestor, do you really want this?" A red-faced monk in his early forties stood in the open hall and asked the people in his early forties respectfully.
His cultivation in the middle stage of the Dan is surging, and he is not far from the later stage, but unfortunately he is a little old, even if he successfully breaks through to the late stage and wants to get married, the possibility is not very high.
This person is the real head of the Xu family, Xu Xiangyong, who is in charge of the affairs of the Xu family.
The old man sitting on the upper seat was domineering and high. He said, "What if not?" ”
Knowing that the ancestor was used to being arbitrary, Xu Xiangyong didn't dare to object, and hurriedly said: "Grandson just thinks that in this way, the cost of scattered cultivation is too great. ”
"From time to time, give them some sweetness, how can you honestly serve our family?" The ancestor of the Xu family said lightly, "This matter has been discussed properly, you don't have to say it again." ”
"Yes." Xu Xiangyong didn't dare to say more.
Looking at this clan, the ancestor of the Xu family sighed: "Xiang Yong, now there is a Jiedan monk lurking in our family, if we don't get it right, we will suffer a big loss." What's the point of sweetening those loose practices? This is a real crisis! ”
Xu Xiangyong hesitated: "What the ancestor said is ......"
The ancestor of the Xu family was even more disappointed. Talents are withering, and the Xu family is also an old family, but this generation of Jiedan monks. Few are outstanding. At present, there is not even a late stage of Yudan. Xu Xiangyong is already the highest in cultivation, but his temperament is really petty. He can live for a few hundred years, and when the time comes, if there is no one to take over, he will have to be oppressed by the other two families, and it is not impossible to be forced to withdraw from Jackdaw Mountain.
Come to think of it. The ancestor of the Xu family waved his hand happily: "You go." ”
"The grandson is leaving." Xu Xiangyong didn't know that the ancestor was disappointed in him, but he had such a temperament, although he was terrified, he couldn't say anything good, so he could only retire obediently.
"Grandpa, why are you holding a hunting convention at this time?" A young voice rang out, and a young man appeared in the hall.
Seeing him, a kind smile bloomed on the face of the ancestor of the Xu family: "Xuan'er." ”
The daughters of the family, unless they are married, most of their children take their mother's surname. The same is true of the grandson of the ancestor of the Xu family. This Xuan Gongzi's full name is Xu Wenxuan.
"Hmm. Very good, cultivation and diligence. "After checking the progress of his grandson's cultivation, the ancestor of the Xu family is very satisfied. Now he is not satisfied with all the few people who are not satisfied, and his hope is placed on the younger generation. If he could live a few hundred more years, he might not be able to cultivate a Yuan Infant Monk in the younger generation. Especially this grandson, his qualifications are not very high, but he is much smarter than Xu Xiangyong.
After receiving the compliment, Xu Wenxuan's face was full of pride: "The furnace Ding presented this time is very good, and if there are more than a dozen, the grandson will be able to break through to perfection." ”
When the ancestor of the Xu family heard this, his face sank: "With such a fast progress, could it be that you have exhausted their essence?" ”
Xu Wenxuan was a little weak-hearted: "Grandson, grandson ......"
"Grandpa doesn't blame you." The ancestor of the Xu family slowed down his face, "Our monks in Damengze don't have those rules, they are just some casual cultivators, even if they make up for it, what can they do?" ”
Xu Wenxuan breathed a sigh of relief and was very puzzled: "What does grandfather mean ......?"
"You have made up too much, and the state of mind torture when you are knotting Dan is not easy to break. In short, you should pay more attention and don't focus on the basics. ”
"Yes, my grandson understands." Xu Wenxuan obediently responded in his mouth, but he thought in his heart, he is not the kind of monk with high talents, how can he cultivate so quickly if he doesn't make up for it? Now that his grandfather is still there, he doesn't take advantage of the fact that he is making enough money now, waiting for others to become the head of the family, where are there so many furnaces and tripods for him to choose?
Looking at the smart and well-behaved grandson, the ancestor of the Xu family was in a much better mood and had an interest in pointing: "You just asked, why do you want to hold a hunting conference at this time, have you thought about the reason?" ”
Xu Wenxuan said: "Naturally, it is for the foreign monks who sneaked in that night. It's just that Sun Er feels that they may not be disguised as Qi refining disciples. ”
"Why?"
Xu Wenxuan didn't think about it: "When the casual cultivators come to take refuge, they all have errands on their bodies, how can the monk have patience?" ”
The ancestor of the Xu family shook his head: "Xuan'er, you'd better change this point." ”
"What?" Xu Wenxuan was stunned.
"You haven't suffered since you were a child, and you find that life unbearable. But to some of the monks, it was nothing. Especially those monks who were born in casual cultivation, what hardships have they not suffered? With their cultivation, even if they disguised themselves as Qi refining disciples, they were only more miserable. ”
The ancestor of the Xu family carefully taught: "The prohibition of our three major families has not made any movement, and most of the infiltrators are still in Jackdaw Mountain. What safer place to hide than a crowd? Foundation building disciples, we can slowly investigate, there are too many qi refining disciples, when will the investigation go? That's why we're holding a hunting convention. ”
"But," Xu Wenxuan said, "if I were an infiltrator, I was almost discovered not long ago, and I wouldn't rush to the hunting meeting for a little reward." ”
The ancestor of the Xu family stroked his palms and smiled: "That's right. This is a rare opportunity, there must not be many excuses not to participate, so if you search carefully, you may be able to find out. ”
Xu Wenxuan was stunned: "It turns out that my grandfather's real plan is this ......"
The ancestor of the Xu family was in a very good mood and said: "Of course, those who participate cannot relax, and when the time comes, we will act separately from the Yuan and Ji families." ”
"So that's ......" Xu Wenxuan's heart moved, speaking of which, the hunting conference can best see a person's strength, should he go and guard it and find two furnaces? The three newly acquired furnace tripods, although they have good appearance, their qualifications are ordinary, and they should not be of great use. I thought that the steward didn't understand what he meant, thinking that he wanted a beautiful woman to cultivate like before. Well, it's better to pick one yourself, maybe you can pick a few fish that slip through the net.
……
Lingyu finally decided to participate.
At this time, it is too conspicuous to call it sick.
After signing up, Jiang Yuanbai joked: "The two Taoist friends are really lucky stars, they have only been in the Xu family for a month, and the three major families have decided to hold a hunting conference." I have been to the Xu family for more than ten years, and this is the first time! ”
Lingyu replied: "Jiang Daoyou said the opposite, right? We just arrived at Xu's house, and before we could get used to it, we drove the ducks to the shelves. Like Jiang Daoyou, it's just right! ”
Jiang Yuanbai thought about it, he had already refined qi at the ninth level, and there were not many loose cultivators who were higher than him, and he just grabbed a good ranking by holding a hunting conference at this time.
The entire Jackdaw Mountain was busy because of this hunting conference, and many errands were scattered in the body, taking out the accumulated spirit stones to ask for help, and he himself devoted himself to cultivation and buying spiritual weapons and pills.
For a time, the price of spiritual weapons in Changhe City increased a lot.
Lingyu took the time to go to Changhe City, pretending to buy a spiritual weapon. When she left Jackdaw Mountain, she clearly sensed a different atmosphere.
On the high platform where the flying boat was docked, there was a mid-stage monk guarding there. This man practiced a special kind of method, and his divine consciousness was comparable to that of a later monk.
As she waited in line for the flying boat, Lingyu felt her keen sense sweep through her. She immediately activated the immortal book in the sea of knowledge and stabilized her mind.
With the cooperation of the Breath Technique and the Immortal Book, she got on the flying boat safe and sound, and arrived safely in Changhe City.
Like all the disciples who left the mountain, she first went to the spiritual weapon shop, looked left and right, and finally reluctantly bought a low-level spiritual weapon.
Da Mengze's level of immortal cultivation is much lower than that of Ling Cang and Xingluo. In the other two places, the cultivators of the eighth level of Qi refining did not look down on low-level spiritual weapons at all, and generally when they reached this cultivation, they could buy high-level spiritual weapons after saving for a few years. But in the refining shops of Damengze, the first city of Changhe City, the most common are low-level spiritual weapons, and there are very few middle and high-level spiritual weapons, except for some children of the Yanzhi family, no one dares to ask the price.
After that, I went to the grocery store and bought some elixirs and spirit runes that were not in good condition. Coming out of the store, Lingyu smiled bitterly in her heart, she had never been shabby in her life.
Soon after, the flying boat would not return until evening, and she wandered the streets like everyone else.
After strolling around for a while, to make sure that no one noticed him, Lingyu went into an alley, and when he came out, he had already changed his appearance and changed into a personable man in gorgeous clothes.
She swaggered into a bookstore and knocked on the counter: "Shopkeeper, do you have a high-level exercise?" ”
The shopkeeper was just a Qi refining cultivator, and he was stunned when he heard this: "Cyclamen, what ......do you mean by the high-level exercises?"
"Including those in the Dan period!" She said with a haughty expression.
The shopkeeper realized that a distinguished guest was coming, and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes!" But the price is ......"
"What, I'm worried that my son won't be able to pay?" She feigned anger and had an insulted look on her face.
The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Don't dare, the little one is too talkative." Childe, please. "Although this son's cultivation is not high, he looks very rich, maybe he is a fat sheep. Tsk, the clothes on his body seem to be a spiritual weapon! Even if you don't have any money, you can get half of the exercises......
Lingyu snorted and followed the shopkeeper into the small hall where the distinguished guests were entertained.
After ordering the tea, the shopkeeper asked, "Dare to ask Gongzi, what kind of exercises do you need?" It's not a small bragging, in addition to the family, Da Mengze has the most complete exercises in this store! ”
Lingyu said: "It's not complete, wait for my son to brag after reading the exercises!" While turning the ring in his hand, he muttered, "If you can't wait, why do you need to buy exercises from a small shop like yours......"
"Yes, yes, Childe, wait a minute, the little one will go and get the exercises immediately." The shopkeeper glanced at the ring and hurriedly went to get the exercises. That ring seems to be the legendary Qiankun ring, and few monks can afford to use it, fat sheep! (To be continued......)
