Chapter 25: Conspiracy
When Liu Jingyu found Li Xuetian, he had already passed out.
He sighed, shook his head and said, "What a bad luck boy, I'm afraid it will be useless in the future." ”
It is a very common cultivation method to enter the body to refine oneself and improve one's cultivation, but everything has a degree, and excessive spiritual energy entering the body will not only not improve the cultivator's cultivation, but will cause harm to the body.
This degree is related to the cultivator's own cultivation, generally like a person below the triple level of martial arts, he can only absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and only after the triple can he bear the concentration of the aura of the spirit crystal.
Liu Jingyu believes that the reason why Li Xuetian became like this is because he fell into a mine full of spiritual crystals, and the extremely abundant spiritual energy poured into his body, which caused the spiritual veins in his body to be destroyed and he became a wasted person.
......
The outcome of the afternoon competition has been divided, Qi Yun easily defeated Tao Liang of the Tao family, and still no one saw his full strength.
Liu Mingyue lost to Luo Zhihua and lost her sword.
"Hmph, what if you win, I'm younger than you, and when I'm sixteen, I'll beat you down!"
She said that she was not convinced, but she had already felt Luo Zhihua's strength during the competition, but with her temperament, she could lose the competition, and her momentum could never be lost.
After the competition, an old man of the Luo family said a few words to Luo Zhihua, it seemed that it was some bad news, he frowned and rushed to the mining area.
......
"Minghao, what's wrong with him?"
Luo Zhihua looked at Li Xuetian, who was unconscious on the bed, and asked.
"My fourth uncle said that the spiritual veins in his body have been lost, and even if he survives, he will be a waste!"
Liu Minghao blamed himself very much, for a cultivator, losing his spiritual veins meant that he could no longer cultivate in the future, and he could only be an ordinary person.
Luo Zhihua didn't say anything, as early as when he took Li Xuetian back to the other courtyard, he had already found out that there was no spiritual vein in his body, as for how he cultivated, it was not clear.
Without the spiritual vein, how can the spiritual vein be destroyed, the Liu family doesn't know, and he doesn't plan to say it.
He looked at the unconscious Li Xuetian, and didn't know whether he was lucky or unlucky. Picking up the blood beads of the nest demon is not a common person's luck, but this luck almost brought him a killing disaster;
......
In the secret room, the people of the four major families discussed the matter of the new ore vein, and their words were full of excitement.
"I really didn't expect that there was a bigger vein hidden deep underground, so we don't have to worry about the depletion of the spirit crystal vein resources!"
Of course they were happy, they thought that the aura fluctuation was emitted by a powerful demon beast, and they had a headache how to deal with it, but no one thought that the reason for this aura fluctuation was the emergence of a new ore vein.
"This vein is buried very deeply, and it seems that we need to increase our mining efforts. ”
"With this vein, our four major families will definitely be more prosperous!"
Everyone was immersed in joy, but Liu Jingyu frowned.
"Don't forget the person who broke into the mine last night, his strength is at least that of a five-vein minor monk. ”
"Yes, I joined forces with Liu Laosi and failed to keep him!" an old man from the Yuan family responded.
"That?"
"Originally, I still wondered what the purpose of that person was, but in connection with the abnormal movement of the ore vein today, I couldn't help but guess that there was a new ore vein hidden under the ore vein, and someone knew it before us!"
"This ......"
Everyone looked at each other.
"The Qi family's plan this time is very big, you should be careful. ”
Liu Jingyu shook his head and didn't say any more.
......
"You're here. Qi Rong looked at the middle-aged man who walked in, put down the teacup in his hand, and beckoned, "Please take a seat." ”
"The head of the Qi family is so calculating!"
The person who came to take off his hat was Tao Zhang, the head of the Tao family, who sneered and said: "Empty gloves white wolf, the appetite is too big!"
"Hahaha, what did the Tao family master say, I only learned today that there is a new vein hidden under this depleted vein. ”
Qi Rong waved his hand and continued: "At this time, the head of the family is called to renegotiate the matter of cooperation. ”
"Hmph, don't think too well about the Qi family, now this vein is worth something, you can afford it!"
Of course, Tao Zhang didn't believe what Qi Rong said, presumably he didn't know how to use to find this hidden vein, if it weren't for this ground accident, I'm afraid he would have to hide it from him.
It's also a shame to say, the matter of his own ore vein is not as good as an outsider's understanding!
"What the Tao family master wants, Qi can naturally afford it, but I don't know if you are greedy enough or brave enough. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Without this movement, no one would know about the new vein, and my plan would only be to coerce and induce them to give up a waste vein, which is not a difficult task. ”
Qi Rong walked up to Tao Zhang's side and continued: "But now it's different, no one can give this treasure mine to others, to this point, the previous arrangement doesn't make much sense. I just thought of a way, if you want to come, you have to be ruthless, I don't know if the Tao family master dares to do it. ”
Tao Zhang frowned, not knowing what Qi Rong's plans were.
"It's a little hard to support the four major families, if you don't go to one or two less, you will be very happy to come to the Tao family. ”
Qi Rong smiled, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
Tao Zhang's pupils shrank, he really didn't expect that the Qi family was actually playing this abacus!
"The four major families of Qingyan have been developed for a hundred years, although their strength is not as good as your Qi family, but they are definitely not something that can be leveraged if you want to, even in the DPRK and China, there are many forces, how can you be allowed to do anything wrong!"
"Brother Tao, calm down. ”
Qi Rong patted him on the shoulder and said lightly: "The Luo family can't move for the time being, but I have a way for them not to interfere in this matter." Although some people in the Liu family are involved in officialdom, they are just small sesame officials, and they are of little use. Yuan Ren of the Yuan family is well-known in the court, but he stood in the wrong line to annoy the saint, and he is on the way back to his hometown, and it is still unknown whether he can live. And my eldest sister, the concubine of the Qi family, is the favored concubine!"
The saint originally wanted to set up Qi Lianyu, the daughter of the Qi family, as the queen, but was opposed by Yuan Ren and other courtiers, and finally failed. The saint was angry, and under the pretext that Yuan Ren was old, he ordered him to return to his hometown.
The Qi family's plan this time is not only a struggle of interests, but also a struggle for power.
"Qi Rong!"
Tao Zhang stared at Qi Rong, this calculation would have been figured out for a while, it was obviously premeditated, he underestimated the greed of the Qi family.
"Could it be that the Tao family master doesn't want to expel them from Qingyan? People are always greedy, and there is a way to get more, so why not do it?"
"Heh, after the matter is completed, my Tao family is afraid that there will be no good fruit to eat!"
"Brother Tao, you are wrong about me, what our Qi family wants is just a mineral vein, based in Wuling County Mansion, and an ally is indispensable here. You and I can get more benefits by cooperating, so why should I have any more trouble, not to mention that we also need someone to restrain the Luo family in Qingyan. ”
Tao Zhang was greedy, otherwise he would not have agreed to cooperate with the Qi family at the beginning, but now the ambition of the Qi family made him a little scared, and he didn't know how to choose for a while.
Qi Rong saw everything in his eyes, Tao Zhang's concerns were clear to him, and in order to reassure him, he continued:
"Your son Tao Liang has a good talent, I will ask someone to introduce him to the Shengjing Academy to cultivate. In addition, my second daughter has also reached the age of marriage, and they are very suitable for talented women, so it is better to find a day to set up a family affair, what do you think?"
Tao Zhang's heart was a little shaken, and he looked at Qi Rong squarely: "Those conditions promised before?"
"Still make a number, and after the matter is completed, you still have thirty percent of the resources of the spirit crystal vein, and two percent of the Luo family. The business of the other two will all be taken over by your Tao family. ”
I have to say that Qi Rong's conditions are very attractive, although the veins are valuable, but the business of the other two is what he wants more.
"In that case, I will believe you!"
"Hahaha, very good, in the future, you and I will be good friends, mutual benefit, isn't it beautiful!"
