Chapter 123: The Su Family's Conspiracy
Chapter 123: The Su Family's Conspiracy
The place where Li Yuanwei and the others are now located is a hundred miles east of Tian'an City. The mountainous terrain is very rugged, with dense forests and towering trees, and this place was once the territory of the little golden retriever monkeys.
"Girl, let Xiao Jin come out of the small tower, the environment here is more familiar to it, let it take a team of tiger spirit bees to inquire if there is something abnormal around here." Li Yuanwei said with a smile.
At the same time, what Li Yuanwei didn't know was that a conspiracy was quietly brewing in Tianancheng.
"Go and see the eldest brother, the Su family should make a move." Qian Shoufang muttered in the Qian family's elixir shop.
Coincidentally, although Qian Shouyi was so busy a few days ago that he couldn't see a shadow all day, he actually sat in the Qian Zhuang account room today, but his mood was obviously very bad, and his two thick eyebrows condensed into a Sichuan shape.
"Big brother, is it the Su family's move?" Qian Shoufang asked directly.
Qian Shouyi didn't raise his head, just nodded, holding a brush in his hand, constantly writing something in the book, as the chief steward of the Qian family in Tian'an City in Yuanhua Town, his cultivation was already a master of the half-step martial arts realm.
"Is the situation bad?" Qian Shoufang then asked.
Qian Shouyi sighed, put down the brush in his hand, and said, "It's bad! Although our Qian family has countless industries, there are only three of the most profitable, one is the money village, the second is the mine, and the third is the pill shop. ”
Qian Shoufang knew that the Qian family had a bronze mine, which was obtained more than thirty years ago - in order to compete for the ownership of this vein mine, the Qian family paid a great price and many masters died.
As for the pharmacy, they buy low-grade pills from Dange and sell them at a higher price. Don't look at this as just a resale sale, but because the demand for pills is very huge, small profits and quick sales are also a terrifying income.
However, the life of the pharmacy is in the hands of Dan Ge, but Dan Ge also wants to have a good relationship with the local snake, so each of the several wealthy families in the city can get some pills to sell.
"Since the beginning of this animal tide in Tian'an City, our mine has been attacked by unknown people, and many people have died, and now people are panicking, and even if the wages are raised, few people are willing to go to the mine."
Qian Shouyi said again: "And the horse pharmacist of the Dange suddenly made it difficult again, saying that the pill sent by the headquarters this time was delayed on the road and was not delivered for a long time, and now our inventory has been sold out, and if there is no pill, the pharmacy will only be temporarily closed." ”
This is a blow to the reputation of the pharmacy, and even if it reopens in the future, it will definitely lose some customers.
"In the past few days, the situation of the money bank is not good, and there is a run on some customers, which must be solved as soon as possible." Qian Shouyi sighed.
Don't look at the big business of the Qian family, but the expenses are also big. And now that the three pillar industries of the Qian family have been hit at the same time, the Qian family's heart has floated, and some small stewards have begun to resign and transfer to the Su family to take office.
"These must be the ghosts of the Su family!" Qian Shoufang immediately affirmed the authenticity.
Qian Shouyi nodded, the three pillar industries encountered problems at the same time, and there was no such coincidence in the world. He tapped his finger on the table and said, "There are also inner ghosts." ”
Qian Shoufang immediately looked cold and said, "Qian Jingye? ”
"Not bad!" Naturally, there was nothing to hide in front of his own brothers, Qian Shouyi snorted, "As soon as something happened in the mine, I sent additional people to patrol, but I didn't even see the shadow of the other party, if someone didn't leak the patrol route, how could it be possible?" ”
I'm afraid that Qian Jingye quietly went to meet the Su family and reached some kind of agreement with the other party - eighty percent was to let the Su family help him win the position of the head of the family.
"I made an appointment with Master Ma Dan of Dange for dinner today, and I have to allow him some benefits to replenish the inventory of pills as soon as possible, otherwise the family will really encounter big problems." Qian Shouyi said.
"Big brother, is that rumor that someone mentioned in the copper mine a few days ago true?" Qian Shoufang asked a little nervously.
"There is no wind and no waves, we must be fully prepared to withdraw from this mine at any time." Qian Shouyi made up his mind.
A day later, Xiao Jin returned with the Tiger Spirit Bee and informed Li Yuanwei that in the Grand Canyon area ahead, he had found a mine cave, surrounded by many demon beasts, and some people were confronting the demon beasts.
Li Yuanwei and the others followed Xiao Jin in the direction of the mine, only to see that the front of the mine was very lively, with demon beasts on one side and humans on the other, and there were several ground-level demon beasts on the demon beast side, leading hundreds of demon beasts to guard something. In the jungle area of Tian'an City, it is obviously a bit abnormal for so many demon beasts to appear at one time.
On the human side, it seems that they are from two different camps, and a chubby middle-aged man is mediating between the two sides.
"Elder Su, Manager Qian, this time I hope you can give Ma a certain face, we will deal with these demon beasts together, and snatching those blood yuan fruits is our goal."
This fat man was the Ma Dan master of the Dan Pavilion who Qian Shouyi had invited to the banquet the night before, and under the guidance of Manager Qian, he had promised that the Dan Pavilion would resupply the Qian family's elixir.
This time, the Su family conspired to take advantage of the Qian family's crisis to seize the Qian family's copper mine in one fell swoop, mainly because of that rumor.
Within the scope of the Qianjia mining area, the bones of immortals and burial goods from 10,000 years ago were found!
Li Yuanwei disguised his cultivation as a half-step Martial Venerable Realm, and while walking towards the group of people, he transmitted the voice of Qian Shouyi: "Manager Qian, I am Li Yuanwei from the academy, and Jingjing They are my good friends. We'll be in the mine and see what happens! ”
"Oh, you are Young Master Li, okay, the Qian family is now under siege by the Su family, and I hope that Young Master Li will help us!" Qian Shouyi is Qian Jingjing's uncle, and when he heard Li Yuanwei's words, he was immediately overjoyed.
Seeing that a pair of masters and apprentices collecting medicine suddenly came to the field, many people immediately looked over.
"Who are you? Why did you come here? An old man from the Su family asked Li Yuanwei.
"Hehe, are your Su family and Qian family preparing to fight for this mine? Then you go on, I don't have much interest in the blood element fruit mentioned by the big fat man, at most I will take a dozen or so to taste it, but these demon beasts are not as easy to talk as I am. Li Yuanwei replied with a smile.
Seeing that the medicine picker who suddenly appeared was extraordinary and difficult to deal with, the Su family elder was silent for a while.
Li Yuanwei saw that there was a blood pool at the bottom of this mine, and there was a blood element tree growing next to the blood pool, and the fruit on the tree emitted a fragrant fragrance, which could be smelled from afar, this fruit was about to ripen, no wonder there was a tide of demon beasts a few days ago.
Whoosh -
The sound of breaking the sky suddenly sounded!
Including Li Yuanwei, several figures flew towards the Blood Yuan Tree at the same time.
The preciousness of the Blood Yuan Fruit is comparable to the ground-level elixir, which can replenish the flesh and blood, and the effect on the demon beast is even more obvious!
Among the snatchers, Li Yuanwei, Su Family Elder and Qian Shouyi were the strongest, and the two prefecture-level demon beasts were not far behind!
In the blink of an eye, it was within ten zhang of the Blood Yuan Fruit.
Li Yuanwei had just picked three Blood Yuan Fruits, and suddenly the mountain shook, and an ancient teleportation formation appeared at everyone's feet. A curtain of light envelops everyone.
Li Yuanwei hurriedly grabbed the hand of the jade phoenix girl, stepped into it, and sensed a faint energy penetrating his whole body.
The group all entered, and was immediately transported into an abyss, which was the first time that the Qian family and the Su family explored this abyss.
What is at stake is unknown.
"Look! There's light inside! One nervously reminded.
Looking at it, there was a cave there, flickering with a faint light.
"Be careful! Don't be careless! Qian Shouyi was not only not happy, but more vigilant and walked over step by step.
The cave twisted and turned, and everyone turned a few corners before finally seeing the brilliance.
It's a weird place!
At the bottom of the abyss, it was clearly pitch black. A breath of death surrounded everyone, everyone was trapped in the formation, and everyone felt that their life force was draining! Taking advantage of everyone's panic, Li Yuanwei hurriedly let the jade phoenix girl enter the Divine Mansion.
The place was bright and bright.
In the distance are several green mountains, and what makes Li Yuanwei excited is that under the green mountains, there is an extremely well-preserved ancient palace!
In desperation, the crowd suddenly found themselves being moved to the front of the palace.
The palace is covered with dust and permeated with the vicissitudes of time.
A trace of amazing aura emanates from the mysterious palace!
"Who?" Li Yuanwei's back was cold.
"Right in front of you."
Li Yuanwei found himself standing in front of a tombstone in front of the palace!
The tomb is overgrown with weeds, desolate and barren, lonely and lonely. A transparent old man appeared in front of Li Yuanwei's eyes.
The body is shattered and the soul remains, and the old man's current state is cast.
Li Yuanwei gasped! Soul Body!
Can the human soul leave the body and exist alone?
The state of the old man has subverted Li Yuanwei's world view!
"It is not surprising that the soul is strong enough to leave the body and travel all over the world, at present, you can't understand it, but one day, you will touch my level." The old man stared at Li Yuanwei with a smile, and at a glance saw the strength of the soul in his body.
In front of the old man, except for the Divine Mansion, Li Yuanwei only felt that the whole body was seen through, and there was nothing to hide.
Awe-inspiring in his heart, Li Yuanwei bowed down and bowed, "I've seen ghost predecessors." ”
"Hehe, the old man has no end to the sea."
Li Yuanwei silently remembered this name, and his eyes rolled slightly: "Dare to ask the boundless senior, why did you appear here?" ”
Hai Wuya was slightly stunned, looked at Li Yuanwei curiously, and was surprised: "I have read countless people in my life, and at your age, there are very few people who have this kind of cultivation." ”
Then Hai Wuya sighed softly: "In the past, I was conspired by traitors, my body perished, and my soul was sealed here. ”
"It wasn't until a few days ago that the seal on this place was loosened, and I was able to leave the tomb for a short time, but only a dozen feet at most."
