After the three monks left, Lingyu hid for a while to make sure they had no follow-up before quietly returning.
Before the end of the day, in the hut opposite, Fang He was still concentrating on cultivation.
Lingyu examined it carefully, and there was no trace of the prohibition she had set up that no one else touched, so she returned to the house with confidence and removed her disguise.
After she cleaned up, there was movement in the hut over there, and it was Fang He's cultivation over.
It didn't take long for footsteps to sound in the medicine field in the distance, from far to near. After a while, someone shouted outside: "Who is in charge here?" Come out quickly. ”
Lingyu didn't delay and got up to open the door.
Fang He also walked out at the same time, looking at the person who came in confusion.
In the open space in front of the house, a middle-aged monk with a beard and a somewhat obscene appearance stood there with three people, one of whom was Steward Shi.
Among the four people, the eight-character Hu monk has the highest cultivation, and he has already completed his qi refining, and the breakthrough is imminent.
Seeing Lingyu and Fang He coming out, his eyes were rolling and he was spinning around, looking even more obscene.
"Steward Shi, this is ......"
The fierce steward Shi in front of her, but at this time, he was safe and well-behaved. He said: "This is the head steward of our medicine field, and it is our family. ”
This family, then the surname is Xu. The Maison has been developing for many years, and the internal situation is complex. At the bottom of the family, the lowest status is a casual cultivator like Lingyu who has just been recruited. Then there is the steward of history, they may have taken refuge for many years, they may be good at making friends, they have a certain foundation in the family, and they are lucky enough to get a good position. Next is the Xu family's side branch, they are not as good as the Yan branch, but they are much better than the squeezed loose cultivation.
Lingyu and Fang He hurriedly saluted the chief manager of the medicine field: "I have seen the chief manager Xu." ”
Hear the title of the Governor. Bazi Hu smiled and squinted. Of course, he can't be the manager. Don't talk about the head of the Xu family. Even the identity of the chief manager of the medicine field is a little watery.
This medicine field is the lowest-level Qi refining medicine field of the Xu family, and there are also higher-level foundation building medicine fields and knot pill medicine fields, and the one in charge of all the medicine fields is the chief manager of the medicine field. Bazihu is at most a small steward, and steward Shi is even more of a small leader. But even so, they are not something that Lingyu's current identity can offend. In a word. If you call it well, you won't suffer.
"Ahem!" was called to the general manager, Bazihu straightened up and pretended to be authentic, "You two, haven't you ever gone out?" ”
The two replied in unison, "No." ”
The mustache raised his chin to one of the henchmen behind him. The attendant held a jade plate-shaped spiritual weapon in his hand, walked to the hut of the two, and looked around.
Fang He was even more inexplicable, looking at Lingyu worriedly.
Lingyu shook her head lightly and motioned for her not to speak.
The attendant was rude and walked into the hut without hesitation. Rummaging.
The sound of things being kicked over kept coming from the house, and Fang He couldn't help it: "Manager Xu." It's ......"
Before she could finish speaking, Lingyu had already stepped forward, took out a rough Dan bottle from her sleeve, handed it to Bazihu, and handed it a look that everyone understands by the way: "Manager Xu, we are all women, please make it convenient." ”
Bazi Hu took it with a smile, and shook the pill bottle with his fingers invisibly, and the feeling of the pill rolling was clearly transmitted, which made his mood better.
The Xu family's ordinary casual cultivators like them can only get two pills a month, and it is estimated that this pill bottle has not had time to take this month.
Bazihu was not very satisfied, but it was not easy for these poor scattered cultivators to come up with two pills, and he nodded: "That's right." Little San, come out! The latter sentence was shouted at the attendants in the wooden house.
After calling out his follower, Bazi Hu confessed before leaving: "Don't go out at will in the near future, take good care of the medicine field, you know?" ”
"What the governor says, we will do." Lingyu also replied with a smile, seeing that the mustache was in a good mood, and took the opportunity to ask, "Boss, what happened?" ”
Bazihu waved his hand and said casually: "Anyway, it has nothing to do with us, you just need to share it in An'an." Let's go! "Just left with his attendant and steward Shi.
They walked to other huts, and soon there was the sound of people on their backs.
"Sister Cheng, what's going on?" Fang He was a little overwhelmed, she was not very old, she didn't have much experience, and she had never seen complicated personnel.
"Don't worry, it should be none of our business." Lingyu said.
The Xu family made this move because the three infiltrators didn't leave Jackdaw Mountain? With such a search method, how could it be possible to search for Monk Jiedan?
The disadvantages of the family lie in this, the superiority of blood brings corruption, and the upper and lower orders are not smooth. The family of Damengze, the ups and downs are ordinary, and it is already remarkable to be able to inherit it for thousands of years, unlike the sect, which has been tens of thousands of years at every turn, and there are some failures, but there are few who directly destroy the sect.
After such a distraction, Fang He didn't have the heart to sleep, cleaned up the house, and started cooking.
Lingyu didn't go back to the house, waiting for dawn so that she could inquire about the news.
Jiang Yuanbai seemed to get along well with their steward, and he must have heard some news.
This matter has nothing to do with her, but it has something to do with it. The whereabouts of the three infiltrators were leaked, and she couldn't explore it anymore. The rest of the Xu family has been figured out by her, and she was going to go to Frozen Crane Pond after touching the mulberry forest slope, and she mastered it all, and then carefully searched the chaotic stone forest, but now her plan has been disrupted.
In the short term, it is best for her not to move, lest she expose her feet and be discovered by the monks of the Xu family. It would be funny if the person who really made trouble in Frozen Crane Lake was not discovered, and she was caught for being irrelevant instead.
She was very curious, did those three people find a random place to cat, or did they have an inconspicuous identity on the face like her?
Could it be that the three great families have actually been ambushed like a sieve? What is the purpose of their arrival at Frozen Crane Pond?
After watching the play all night, my head was full of questions.
An hour passed, and when it was dawn, the two went to work in the medicine field.
Lingyu deliberately looked next to the other side, slowly checking the situation of the elixir.
After a while, Jiang Yuanbai came out of the house and saw her say hello: "Cheng Daoyou, it's early!" ”
Compared to the usual routine, today is indeed a bit early. Jiang Yuanbai's face was a little tired, obviously affected by the search in the middle of the night.
"Jiang Daoyou is also early." Lingyu replied, got closer, and asked in a low voice, "Jiang Daoyou, what happened last night?" Could it be that something has been lost and is searching? ”
Jiang Yuanbai yawned and said, "I don't know, it sounds like that." ”
Lingyu showed a confused expression: "Wouldn't it?" We don't usually go to the steward's housekeeper's house......"
"If it's really stolen, eighty percent of it is this sect." Jiang Yuanbai said lazily, "We are not the only ones who have moved, I heard that other places have also been searched." ”
"Really?" Lingyu asked worriedly, "We won't have an impact, right?" ”
Jiang Yuanbai waved his hand: "Don't worry, it's not a big deal, we're unlucky, it's a big matter, we can't affect it, at most we will be knocked off a few spirit stones by the stewards." ”
As Jiang Yuanbai expected, the order directly issued by this sect, several stewards did not dare to mess around too much. The storm subsided in a few days, but in private, the guards were much tighter, and many places that were originally loosely defended strengthened the prohibition.
Lingyu guessed that the three should not have been found. This is not good news for her, and in order not to reveal her identity, it is best not to go out in the middle of the night in the near future.
Stop planning for the time being, and Lingyu waits for the opportunity.
Before the three major families could relax their defenses, a piece of news flew to Yaotian's side like wings.
"Sister Cheng, have you heard?" Fang He ran back excitedly, "The three great families are going to hold a hunting conference!" ”
"Hunting convention?" Lingyu shook her head, "I haven't heard of it, what's going on?" ”
Fang He was excited, and said, "I heard that we can also participate, it's a rare opportunity!" ”
Fang He had just inquired and told her the reason. This kind of hunting tournament is similar to the small and big competition held by the sect, and is used to motivate the children of the family. Under normal circumstances, only the sect can participate, and those who take refuge in the sect can only get the general treatment of the sect unless the foundation has been laid.
Occasionally, the Maison will allow casual meditation to participate, which is a rare opportunity that may not be encountered once in a few decades. If it is good to perform in the assembly, the reward is often very rich. This is the only opportunity for the squeezed cultivators to get the same treatment as the children of this sect.
"This hunting conference is held for Qi refining disciples, I heard that the ancestor is in a good mood, so let the scattered cultivators also participate!"
"Really? We've only been getting started for a little over a month, so lucky? ”
"I can't believe it either!" Fang He grabbed her and couldn't hold back his excitement, "If the expression is good, maybe we can get the attention of the seniors of this sect, we can't miss the opportunity." ”
"Uh-huh." Lingyu nodded repeatedly, "Where is this hunting tournament held?" What kind of form is it? ”
Fang He was stunned by her question, and scratched his head embarrassedly: "I forgot to ask." She heard the news from Jiang Yuanbai just now, so she hurried back.
"Then let's go and ask!" Lingyu pretended to be impatient.
"Okay." Fang He locked the elixir he had just harvested into the house, "Let's go!" ”
They soon got the exact news from Jiang Yuanbai's mouth. This hunting tournament is indeed allowed to participate in the casual cultivation, and the location is in the nearby Mihu Lake.
There are groups of lakes in Damengze, and the abundance of Jackdaw Mountain depends on the moistening of Mihu Lake. Mihu has several large pearl fields, which are the industries of the three major families. In addition, there are many fierce aquatic monsters in the lake, and outsiders are usually not allowed to set foot in them, and only the family and the main sect can go hunting if they have permission.
For these low-level cultivators, demon beasts are very good materials, they can not only refine pills, but also refine weapons, and if they are lucky enough to find a demon pill, then they will be sent.
In particular, Jiang Yuanbai revealed a news that in this hunting conference, the participants of the harvested prey can take one percent. It's a temptation that's hard to resist. (To be continued......)
