Behind him stood a young man in his twenties, with a handsome face, broad shoulders and a thin waist. "Dad, we've been here for so long, why hasn't anyone come to greet Lingxiao yet?"

Lu Wanchen smiled: "Jie'er, don't be in a hurry about everything, enjoy the scenery with peace of mind, you will always come." The young man answered, but his expression was a little disapproving.

At this time, the sound of bells and drums on Lingxiao Peak came from afar, and the footsteps on the mountain road sounded. Chang Qingzi led several elders to personally come down to greet him, and with a little attention, he could see who among these people was Lu Wanchen.

"Sect Master Lu is here, Lingxiao is really shining, it is too late to greet him, and I hope that Sect Master Lu will forgive me. Changqing Ziji bowed, and then turned sideways: "Please ask Sect Master Lu to go up the mountain." ”

Lu Wanchen laughed: "The head of Changqing doesn't have to be polite, Lu is really presumptuous to come, it stands to reason that he should send someone to inform your faction first." came in such a hurry, and I hope that the head of Changqing will bear it. ”

The two said a few polite words, Lu Wanchen pulled Changqingzi and walked side by side on the mountain road, along the way, he was also full of praise for the scene on Lingxiao Mountain: "The head of Changqing doesn't know, Lu has liked the notes left by the ancestors in the sect since he was a child. Hundreds of years ago, those predecessors had come to your faction as guests, and the notes were full of praise for the grandeur of your faction, and Lu was fortunate to come this time, which was really an eye-opener. ”

Chang Qingzi didn't know the specific purpose of Lu Wanchen's trip, so he pondered in his heart and said a few polite words in his mouth. The group entered the Lingxiao Hall, sat down the guests, and served tea and snacks.

Lu Wanchen pointed to the handsome young man behind him: "This is Lu's fourth son, Junjie, take him out for a long time this time." Chang Qingzi looked at it and praised: "It's really a talent, and it really deserves the name of Junjie." ”

After a few polite words, Lu Wanchen saw that Chang Qingzi was cautious in his words, and his expression was also a little defensive, so he said straight to the point: "Master Changqing, this time Lu came here to discuss something with your faction. To put it more clearly, my Red Maple Sect wants to cooperate with you Lingxiao. ”

Chang Qingzi's eyebrows moved: "Sect Master Lu, to be able to cooperate with your sect, of course Lingxiao can't ask for it, but I don't understand, if there is anything else that can't be done with your sect's strength, how can I Lingxiao have the ability to intervene?"

Lu Wanchen said with a smile: "The head of Changqing doesn't have to be polite, Lu Mou spoke straightforwardly, since I came in person, I just want to show the sincerity of my Red Maple Sect, as for why I want to cooperate with your faction, please ask the head of Changqing to let the miscellaneous people retreat, you listen to me carefully." ”

"Listen up. Chang Qingzi looked at Lu Wanchen with both eyes, seeing his sincerity, and then he was a little convinced that he was not here to demonstrate or have the intention of annexation. With a wave of his hand, Chang Qingzi asked all the miscellaneous disciples in the hall to retreat, and there were only a few elders of the Lingxiao Waiwu Hall and Lu Wanchen's son plus a few retinues in the hall.

Lu Wanchen looked around, turned his head and said, "Master Changqing, the four holy sects of our Xuanmu Domain have their own ways. Chibai City is located in the middle of the Xuanmu Domain, sitting on the ground to make money, and collecting tolls from merchants to and fro. Wanhua Pavilion operates a prostitution restaurant. Guizhushan collects treasures and communicates with people from other regions to make profits. ”

"These things are well known to them, my Red Maple Sect is similar to Xuanmu City, they are all people in the sect who provide some protection for the surrounding merchants, and with some business accumulated in the sect over the years, they can be maintained. ”

"It's just that the current world is full of places to spend money, and when there is a fight, you can't rely on the number of cultivators as in the past, presumably the head of Changqing has also discovered in this battle, as long as you have enough immortal crystals, the cultivators of the Xuanshui and Xuantu domains can invite as many as you want. The same is true of traps, which may seem clumsy but are troublesome. ”

Chang Qingzi nodded: "What Sect Master Lu said is extremely true, those things are really troublesome. Listen to what you mean, now as long as you spend a few immortal crystals, you can hire many cultivators and mechanics?"

Lu Wanchen nodded: "The border between our Xuanmu and Xuanjin domains is either a barbarian or an endless beast tide, although it has been stable in the past few decades, its development is not as prosperous as their regions that have never been harassed. Several Daomen families in the Xuantu Domain are now wantonly making organs, as long as you spend enough immortal crystals, even hundreds of trap people will be recruited immediately. ”

Chang Qingzi was also secretly frightened when he heard it, and he saw the power of the giant with his own eyes. Han Chi only brought up nine Organ Giants, and Ling Xiao could destroy them by surprise with the Guiyuan Sword Formation. If there were dozens or hundreds of mechanism giants, the scene would be uncontrollable. But this Lu Wanchen came all the way to the end, and he didn't just say this.

Lu Wanchen looked at Chang Qingzi's eyes and understood what he meant: "Master Changqing, I have only one intention in saying these words, and now if you want to gain a foothold in this world, you can't do it without immortal crystals." That's why I want to join forces with your faction to create a way to make money. ”

"The five Xuanmu Domains, each with its own characteristics, the medicinal materials and animal skins of my Xuanmu Domain, the materials and swords of the Xuanjin Domain, the mechanism ores of the Xuantu Domain, the rare seafood of the Xuanshui Domain, and the phosphorus bomb and fire oil of the Xuanhuo Domain. These things are everyday things in their respective places, but they are hard to find elsewhere. ”

"The Red Maple Sect is located in the southeast of the Xuanmu Domain, not far from the Xuanjin Xuantu Domain, and Lingxiao is located in the north of the Xuanmu Domain, and the same is true with the Xuanshui Xuanhuo Domain. I have an idea that our two factions will join hands to create a trade route that connects the north and the south. Since then, the relationship between us and major merchants is no longer a simple delivery protection, but a cooperative relationship. How much more could it be a hundred times more now than it is now?"

Chang Qingzi was silent when he heard this, and only after a while did he say, "Although Sect Master Lu's plan sounds like a promising future, it is really easier said than done. He looked at Lu Wanchen and said: "Our two factions are thousands of miles apart, and the places through which this trade road passes are twists and turns, I'm afraid the gains outweigh the losses." ”

Lu Wanchen said with a smile: "Of course you can't go from the current road, if you don't say anything else, it will hurt enough to be scratched by Chibai City." Have you ever thought about it, between our two factions, we don't necessarily have to go through Chibai City. ”

Of course, Chang Qingzi knew the topography of the Xuanmu Domain, and when he heard this, he thought carefully: "Could it be that what Sect Master Lu said is that we should go straight and open up a new road?"

"Yes, it's comfortable to talk to someone who understands. Lu Wanchen said with a smile: "Although there are some mountains and forests between you and me, most of them are plains and grasslands, but they have been inaccessible for hundreds of years, so no one has walked." ”

He said loudly: "Don't hide it from the head of Changqing, we came here this time to take this roadless road, from my Red Maple Sect to the foot of your Lingxiao Mountain, and we have to pay attention to the mountain terrain along the way, and it only took less than ten days." ”

"Is that really the case?" Chang Qingzi was really shocked in his heart. All along, all the caravans in the Xuanmu Domain have spread out through Chibai City, and no one has ever tried to bypass the endless Red Berlin. Unexpectedly, Lu Wanchen actually went to explore a way out in person.

"I had this intention a few years ago, when there were quite a lot of sects in the northeast of you, and once the matter leaked out, it was inevitable that there would be extraneous branches. This time, I heard that the head of Changqing has broken through the army of the Eternal Life Hall, and I think the situation in the northeast is under the control of your faction. That's why I can't wait. ”

Lu Wanchen said with a smile: "Of course, I also know that this matter will not be successful in a moment and a half, it will take several years, and the situation of your faction is now settled, and there are still some miscellaneous matters to deal with." However, if others know that Lu is here in person, I think it will be beneficial to your faction. ”

Chang Qingzi is of course a smart person, if the news of Lu Wanchen's visit to Lingxiao spreads, it will definitely bring a deeper influence to Lingxiao, and it will have a miraculous effect on the current situation that is not too stable. Lu Wanchen came in person in such a hurry, which was a big gift to Lingxiao first.

"Sect Master Lu is generous, the business is more beneficial than disadvantageous to both your and my factions, of course Lingxiao is willing. However, this matter is very important, and I also ask Sect Master Lu to stay in Lingxiao for a few days, and let me discuss it with the elders of the sect. "Chang Qingzi wanted to inform everyone, and then see if there was anything else he hadn't thought of.

Chang Qingzi's reaction made Lu Wanchen very satisfied: "That's natural, think about small things three times, and think about big things for three nights." Anyway, Lu has nothing to do, so he will stay in Guipai for a few days and have a good tour of this thousand-year-old mountain. ”

Chang Qingzi summoned his disciples to arrange a place for the Red Maple Sect and his party, and personally sent them to the front of the main hall. When Lu Wanchen left, he took out a roll of sheepskin from his arms and solemnly handed it to Changqingzi: "Master Changqing, this is what we painted when we came all the way." This will be sent to your faction for reference. Chang Qingzi took it with both hands and thanked him repeatedly.

As soon as the Lingxiao disciples said goodbye, Lu Junjie asked his father with a puzzled face: "Dad, you have already given them a long face when you come to Lingxiao in person, why did you even give them a map?"

Lu Wanchen looked at his son calmly: "Junjie, since we want to cooperate with Lingxiao, we must treat each other with sincerity, no sect is strong or weak, and we can't take it to heart." The world has changed, and the current strength of the Red Maple Sect is indeed much stronger than that of Lingxiao, but hundreds of years ago, why didn't those predecessors of my Red Maple Sect look up to Lingxiao?"

"Child, what you want to make an alliance with is sincerity, if you can't look at each other with an equal mood, how can you expect people to treat you sincerely? ”

"Walking on top of these five mysteries, strength is important, but you always look at others with a condescending eye, how can you make real friends? Junjie, in this world, only sincerity can be exchanged for sincerity, and the exchange of interests is always temporary. ”

Lu Junjie pondered for a moment and nodded: "I remember, but Dad, there are so many sects in the Xuanmu Domain, why do we have to choose Lingxiao to cooperate?"

Lu Wanchen smiled: "The main reason is, of course, that Lingxiao is in this excellent position. And when I was a child, when I read the notes of those seniors, I was very yearning for the majesty of this Lingxiao Peak, maybe it was the impression left at that time, so I have been paying attention to the movements here. ”

"Don't underestimate this Lingxiao faction, a change in their faction decades ago made Chang Qingzi the head. Over the years, they have developed rapidly, keeping a low profile and uniting in their hearts. This battle over the crystal veins proves that although they have been holding back all these years, they have been secretly accumulating strength. ”

Chang Qingzi was scheming, and he made a series of dark chess moves, and all the sects were within his calculations. As for the matter of the sword formation, it was even more terrifying, for so many years, I had never heard of a sword formation that could compete with a cultivator of the Yin Yang realm. Many famous factions also have ancestral formations, and dozens of people can achieve unity of mind and mind, but they have not endured loneliness for more than ten years. ”

Lu Wanchen walked around the house a few times with his hands behind his back: "The Everbright Sect is not only to strengthen its own strength, but also to find allies who can be trusted. If you feel superior everywhere, even if they are in awe on the surface, who will lend a helping hand when you really need it?"

"So since I chose Lingxiao, I have to show enough sincerity, we came in person just to create some momentum for them, but the map proves that we have enough trust in them. Chang Qingzi is a smart person, and he can naturally see whether the truth is false or false. ”

He stood down and looked at Lu Junjie and said, "So put away your identity as the young master of the Red Maple Sect, treat people with sincerity in this Lingxiao, and let the Long family kid who came with you also be more restrained." Relying on the name of his own Lao Tzu to show off his power outside, it will only make people laugh. ”

On the Lingxiao Palace, all the Lingxiao elders were overjoyed when they learned the news, and Lu Wanchen came in person, showing that he was cooperating with Lingxiao with an equal attitude, once this matter can be done, not only will the wealth be rolling, but Lingxiao's status in the Xuanmu Domain will naturally be raised to a higher level.

"Senior brother in charge, I think this thing is feasible. Mo Wen pointed to the sheepskin map hanging on the side and said, "Judging from this map, if we follow the route they have drawn, not only will we save the cost of those places in Chibai City, but we will also spend a few days less, and of course those merchants will be happy." ”

"Yes, these places are ownerless, the two ends are the boundaries of our two factions, others enter the Xuanmu Domain from those places, and they also have to pass through our territory, whether it is to transport goods by themselves or wait to collect money, they are sure to make a profit. Elder Meng's eyes lit up, and he looked at a route drawn out in thick ink on the map, as if he had seen piles of immortal crystals.

"In the past, this road had to pass through four or five sects, and now the Eternal Life Hall next to the Xuan Water Area is also under our control, if this thing can really be done, the number of immortal crystals earned is really uncountable. ”

Seeing that Elder Meng, who was usually steady, his eyebrows fluttered, Chang Qingzi couldn't help but smile and said, "Since that's the case, then let's promise them?"

"Of course you have to say yes, but don't rush too much. Mo Wen shook his head and said, "Let them stay on Lingxiao for a few more days, and let's take this opportunity to send someone to inquire about the movement outside." ”

"Senior brother in charge, do you see if you send people to notify those factions, at least let them know that following our Lingxiao to do business is promising. Elder Meng looked proud.

"This is natural, it is not appropriate to talk about the business matter now, just say that the sect master of the Red Maple Sect is visiting and intends to discuss with us. Chang Qingzi paused and said, "Let the Huang family brothers take the time to come, the two of them still have some talent for doing business." ”

Zhang Zhao found that the number of golden characters in his brain increased dramatically when he recited the requiem mantra after the first battle of the crystal vein, and after the fourth verse was completed, the fifth verse also appeared with four characters. Zhang Zhao has already roughly figured out the functions of the first four verses of the Twelve Sutras of Benevolence and Requiem, and after the fifth sentence appeared, Zhang Zhao found that he had entered a new realm.

When the fifth verse just appeared, when Zhang Zhao was about to repeat what he had already done, he destroyed the fifth verse in his mind, and the nine golden characters of the first verse spread out, and according to Zhang Zhao's previous memory, he deduced what was going to happen next.

Everything has a new meaning in Zhang Zhao's eyes. Standing on a raft in the lake, Zhang Zhao could guess which part of the body of the fish that was swimming in the water after he stabbed out. When walking against the wind, this step is on a branch or stone, and the next landing point changes. Even when cooking and stir-frying, the taste of the food can be inferred from the salt and the size of the fire.

As he continued to explore, he found that this kind of prediction ability did not stop there, as if all the people who had participated in the few competitions in the battle of the crystal veins that day, as long as their minds moved, they could randomly select two people to face each other in their minds, and deduce the possible outcome of the victory or defeat according to the moves and spells they used that day.

Although Zhang Zhao's realm has not yet reached the height of those people, in this repeated deduction, Zhang Zhao still feels that he has made great progress in both the judgment of tricks and the angle of his shot. He also tried to challenge himself, but of course it ended in a miserable defeat.

What surprised Zhang Zhao even more was that one day when Shu Jiuling was throwing out the bone fragment, after he looked at it several times, he could analyze the position and direction of the bone fragment after it landed at the moment when the bone fragment left Shu Jiuling's finger.

Zhang Zhao began to like the feeling that everything was expected, and although it was inevitable that there would be some temporary changes that made the inference wrong, he still tirelessly played the game of foreknowledge in his head every day.

The sect master of the Red Maple Sect came to Lingxiao in person, and of course the whole mountain knew about it very quickly. When Zhang Zhao told the elders of Yangxian Hall the news, he saw the shock and joy on their faces that he had never felt before.

"Lu Wanchen actually came in person? This is really not a small face for Changqing. Feng Qianfa still called Changqingzi's previous name, and his face was also a little yearning: "It's been hundreds of years, and my Lingxiao has finally had some connections with the top sects in the Xuanmu Domain. ”

"He does have some means. Let's underestimate him. Wu Zongting straightened his head and said: "Judging from what we know, Gu Changqing has been planning these things for a day or two, and has been waiting for the opportunity, and a few of us just caught up with this battle by chance." ”

"Senior Brother Wu, we are more or less useful. Li Mengshan's injuries gradually improved, and his spirits became much stronger: "If it weren't for you and Senior Brother Feng holding those two back, they wouldn't be able to do it easily." ”

Gao Yongming, whose hair was like a flower, retorted loudly: "I don't think so, the map of the Guiyuan Sword Formation has been thrown in the Jing Pavilion, didn't we also look through it when we were fine? Who would believe that thing could really succeed at that time?"

Qi Yaonan said with a smile: "This formation is just beginning, it can break the yin and yang, use it freely, and dominate the world." He squinted his eyes and recalled: "A few of us looked at that array diagram, and even Senior Brother Wu thought that these words were big bragging, who knew that they would really let them come out." ”

Pang Feiyang's injuries have also improved now, and he sighed softly: "It's a pity that I was injured here that day, and I couldn't witness the power of the sword array with my own eyes." ”

Wu Zongting raised his head and said, "If it is unexpected, even a few cultivators of the Yin and Yang Realm will be able to resist that sword formation. This is still because those disciples are not cultivating enough, if they all reach the realm of five qi, this sword array can really dominate the world. ”

"What if they all reach the Yin Yang Realm?" Hearing Sheng Jin's unrealistic question, everyone in the hall had a smile on their faces, and Wu Zongting said with a smile: "Senior Brother Sheng, eighty-one people have all reached the Yin and Yang Realm, even if they don't use the sword array, who else would dare to be an enemy of the five Xuan Realms? If this sword formation is driven by eighty-one Yin Yang Realm cultivators as you said, even the legendary Cave Heaven Realm will have to avoid its edge. ”

Lu Junjie listened to his father's teachings, and originally planned to restrain his mind, and honestly meditated in the house for the past few days. As soon as it was dawn the next day, the door was violently pushed open.

"Fourth brother, let's go out and have fun, doesn't it mean that there are many good places on this mountain?" Pushing the door in, it was a young man who was half a head shorter than Lu Junjie, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, although there were many red bumps on his face, his appearance was not ugly.

"Long Fourteen, my father attaches great importance to what he has to do when he comes to Lingxiao this time. I'm afraid you're running around and causing trouble, so let's stay in the house honestly. ”

The young man with thick eyebrows with red bumps on his face was immediately deflated when he heard this, but immediately shouted again: "Fourth brother, I just thought I was bored at home before I came out to play with you, and I ran with you for more than ten days, so I can't still stay in the house when I get to the place." ”

He looked at Lu Junjie with a pleading look: "Fourth brother, I, Long Xiyang, swear to the sky, this time I promise not to cause trouble, even if someone rides to the neck to, I won't say a word." ”

Long Xiyang is the fourteenth son of Long Huaigu, the lord of Xuanmu City, Long Huaigu's family education is very strict, and more than a dozen sons are also cautious when they walk in their own city on weekdays. Long Huaigu and Lu Wanchen have a close personal relationship, Long Xiyang and Lu Junjie have known each other since childhood, they are of the same age, and they usually get along very well. This time, when he went to look for Lu Junjie, he happened to meet the Red Maple Sect and wanted to go to Lingxiao, so he came to join in the fun.

Lu Junjie listened to what Long Xiyang said pitifully, he also knew that Long Xiyang never caused trouble in Xuanmu City on weekdays, and he also wanted to go out to have a look, so he nodded, and the two of them went out of the room.

"Fourth young master, are you going out before breakfast?" The door of a room in the hallway was wide open, and an old man came out to ask. Lu Junjie smiled: "I went out with Long Fourteen to see what good scenery there is, what about my father?"

"The sect master went to discuss things with Lingxiao's people, where are the two young masters going? Do you need an old man to accompany you?" This old man is Zuo Chen, the elder of the Red Maple Sect, who has also reached the yin and yang realm with his cultivation, and usually cares for Lu Junjie very much.
