Chapter 188: Cruel Rules
"A few immortal masters, these young people are here to ask for medicine. The old man said respectfully.
Those few people were wearing Taoist robes, and there was naturally an internal breath on their bodies, which frightened Du Yangyu's brothers and sisters so much that they didn't dare to move.
The man who was the leader looked the most arrogant, just glanced at Du Yangyu's brothers and sisters, and then shook his head at the old man and sneered: "Why are you still bringing people to the valley, now the situation in the valley is not normal, and the pill has been temporarily provided to the outside world, where are you going back and forth." ”
"Immortal Master, their young people are kind to each other, and my old bones are not easy to refuse. The old man laughed.
"Hmph, there must be some benefits to be received, right?" the young man in charge snorted coldly, "Forget it, since you're here, let's take a look." ”
With that, his eyes swept towards a few people.
Du Yangyu's brothers and sisters were naturally respectful, and they didn't dare to make a sound, the young man had long been accustomed to it, and his eyes didn't stay long.
Then he saw Yu Tong, and was immediately attracted by Yu Tong's fairy-like face, and couldn't help but shrink his pupils, and then he noticed that Yu Tong, a fairy, was actually holding a little white face with all his heart, and couldn't help but feel a sense of loss and helplessness.
Then there is Jing Shu, but Jing Shu has now covered her face with a veil, and he didn't recognize it, so he skipped it directly.
Although Jingshu was also a descendant of Jindan Valley, she didn't recognize these disciples who came out to receive outsiders, and this was the first time she had entered the valley as an outsider, so she forgot what to say for a while, and just followed Li Chen silently.
After seeing everyone clearly, the man in charge shook his head and said disdainfully: "It's just a few of you who ask for medicine and want to enter the valley?"
"Yes, Immortal Master, Du Yangyu, the son of the Du family in Lower Tanglin County, this is my sister Du Lingling. These three are Brother Li, Sister Hitomi and Sister Jing. Du Yangyu took a deep breath and forcibly calmed down.
"Well, I'm just receiving outsiders for Jindan Valley, not an immortal master, you can call me Brother Yuan. The man at the head was humble in his words, but his expression was still arrogant.
How dare Du Yangyu really call him Brother Yuan, the momentum of this person and the people around him is the only one he has seen in his life, and if he doesn't please this person, I'm afraid that he will waste so much trouble in vain, and then he can only go home without even entering the door.
"The demeanor of the immortal master is inferior to shame. Du Yangyu smiled respectfully, but quietly stuffed a ticket of two thousand taels into Brother Yuan's hand.
Brother Yuan naturally pocketed the ticket.
He is not like those arrogant elders in the valley, he is just a gatekeeper and can't do alchemy, so he has more contact with the outside world, and he naturally attaches great importance to money.
The burden in Du Yangyu's heart suddenly relaxed a lot, at least money can still play a role now.
Brother Yuan's expression was no longer arrogant, he relaxed a lot, he patted Du Yangyu's shoulder, and explained: "It's really not the right time for you to come, the situation in the valley has not been as good as in previous years, and many elders in the valley have gathered around with the valley lord to discuss major matters, so there are very few elders who still have time for alchemy. ”
"The elders have all discussed important matters, Jindan Valley is so powerful, what other important matters are worth it for you to even have time to refine the pill?" Du Yangyu said with wide eyes.
Brother Yuan shook his head, smiled, and did not speak.
Li Chen saw through the mystery at a glance, Elder Cui, the half-step sword king of the Seven Veins Martial Jindan Valley, was killed by him, and the heir Jingshu was also detained, even if the Jindan Valley was profound, it was enough to shake.
Those elders naturally want to discuss a countermeasure for this kind of thing, and this Yuan brother is only afraid that he is not qualified to know more, let alone tell outsiders.
"Although there are very few elders in the empty alchemy, it is not nothing. Brother Yuan suddenly rubbed his fingers, and said with a smile on his face, "I see that you are sincere, and I can make an exception to take you in." ”
Du Yangyu's heart was shocked, and he gave Brother Yuan a ticket of three thousand taels again, and Brother Yuan suddenly smiled even more.
"When you go in, you should know how to do what you shouldn't look at or ask. Brother Yuan commanded.
"I'll pay attention to this later, thank you for the reminder. Du Yangyu said with a smile.
Brother Yuan nodded, and then ordered a few people behind him to move the medicine tripod together, so that everyone could really enter the valley.
Although the mouth of this Jindan Valley is narrow, there is a hole in the valley.
The inside is extremely spacious, there are countless Qionglou Yuyu and magnificent halls, in addition to sword cultivation, there are more ordinary people living in it. Although Jindan Valley is a hidden alchemy sect, it is impossible to use pure sword cultivation to support it, it still needs a huge number of ordinary people for them to exploit, and it is naturally impossible for the descendants of those elders and alchemists to move outside.
Brother Yuan pointed to the magnificent hall at the core and said: "That is the most sacred main hall of our Jindan Valley, known as the Danwang Temple, and it is the valley lord Danwang dormitory on weekdays, and the halls next to him are also the places where the elders practice alchemy." Those of us who don't use alchemy live on the periphery. ”
"The valley lord is actually known as the Dan King, so in this way, he is a sword king powerhouse!" Du Yangyu said with respect and awe, "If he can make a move, my father will definitely not have to worry about his life anymore." ”
"Hmph, what kind of person are you, Lord Dan is not casually going to help others, your Du family's assets add up to King Dan without even looking at it. This time, if there are idle elders who are willing to give you alchemy, it can be regarded as your accumulation of virtue in your previous life. Brother Yuan said disdainfully.
At this time, a group of old men came in front of him, and the person at the head was even white-eyebrowed, obviously with a much higher status than Brother Yuan.
Brother Yuan hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Master He, these young people are here to ask for medicine in the valley. ”
In the Jindan Valley, the alchemist takes the grade of the pill that can be refined as the title, and the divine master is naturally the divine Jindan alchemist, only the valley master can deserve this title, and the master is the alchemist who can refine the Xuandan alchemist, generally the elders in the valley can have this title, followed by the middle master and the lower master, of which the lower master refers to the alchemist who has just been able to refine the lower grade pill.
However, even if it is only a lower master, it has a much higher status than other sword cultivators who can't alchemy.
He Xia Shi is the only alchemist that Brother Yuan can come into contact with.
"Asking for medicine?" He Xia Shi frowned, "Now that there is no one refining medicine in the valley, and the valley master has ordered that no guests will be accepted, you still dare to bring people in?"
Brother Yuan grinned, pretending to be stupid.
"Forget it, I know that your kid must have received benefits again. He Xia Shi shook his head and said.
Then, he swept his eyes over Du Yangyu and said lightly: "Don't blame you, the valley is not peaceful today, if you really ask for medicine, you still need to wait for a few days, it is better to stay in the valley." ”
He suddenly pointed to some people next to him and shook his head: "They are also like you, they all came to ask for medicine, they have been waiting for four or five days, and it is almost their turn." ”
Du Yangyu turned his head to look, and sure enough, he found that many businessmen and wealthy people in gorgeous clothes were honestly queuing up outside a large hall, and everyone had anxious and helpless expressions on their faces, but no one dared to be disrespectful.
"A few days, my father can't wait for a few days, he is under a poisonous spell, and he is in danger, and he can't delay any longer. Du Yangyu suddenly remembered something and said anxiously.
His brother and sister have traveled thousands of miles from Tanglin County to this Jiangzhou, and they have entered the rugged mountain road for three days, and it has been more than half a month in total, and it will definitely take so much time to go back, which is already the maximum time limit that the divine doctor said their father can last.
If it drags on any longer, I'm afraid that the medicine will be available by then, but it will be too late to go back.
"Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky. Brother Du, please take a look. He Xiashi said lightly.
Du Yangyu stuffed a ticket of five thousand taels into the hands of He Xiashi, and said eagerly: "Immortal Master He, can you be accommodating, my father really can't wait for so long." ”
He Xiashi changed color slightly, and after quietly accepting the ticket, he scolded sharply: "My Jindan Valley is not such a worldly place, don't use the outside set to pollute the holy land!"
Du Yangyu smiled bitterly in his heart, and secretly said If you don't love money, don't accept it!
However, he didn't dare to show it on his face, and took out a piece of superb jade, stuffed it into He Xiashi's hand, and said respectfully: "My Du family has admired Jindan Valley for a long time, how dare you pollute the holy land." ”
He Xiashi glanced at the jade, and his face was a little relieved, so he accepted it and said slowly: "It's okay if you don't want to wait, I Jindan Valley does have another rule to follow." ”
"If you can go from here, step by step along the avenue, and kneel all the way to the Danwang Temple in the middle, then no matter how busy the elders in the valley are, they will personally take action to refine the medicine for you. ”
The road he pointed to was winding and tortuous, not to mention, just hundreds of zhang away from the Danwang Temple, if ordinary people really bowed to it step by step, I was afraid that half of their bodies would have been crippled.
What's more, compared to being injured when he got up, his personality was even more humble to the extreme, and Li Chen couldn't help frowning slightly.
However, Du Yangyu's expression changed again and again, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Okay! For my father's life, this way, I kneel!"
