Chapter 31 Harnessing the Wind and the Grass

"Contract spirit beast, you're talking about that demon tiger, it's not necessary, it's your contract spirit beast, you can naturally take it with you, and there are no constraints. Besides, there is no precedent for the academy to accept spirit beasts as disciples, so you don't need to be so troublesome. Elder Qingke thought for a moment and quickly explained.

"I see, thank you Elder Qing. Li Mu must be in his heart, although it is not as expected, but it is almost the same, and he can bring Rourou outside in the future.

"Well, the hour is almost up. Let's go!"

Floating Auction House, lobby on the first floor.

"I'll take Li Mu back, you can do the same here, but pay attention to taking care of the Li family more in the future, understand?" Qingke took Li Mu and prepared to leave, the white-haired and white-bearded old man behind him bowed down and responded, "Yes!"

Li Mu secretly remembered Qing Ke's kindness in his heart, and then Qing Ke pulled him, and the red spirit on his feet flashed, and he disappeared here.

Three days later, the Dongcang Plain.

"Li Mu, we are about to arrive in Dongjiang County, after entering the city, we will go to the Holy Emperor Exchange first, I need to buy another elixir. Qingke took Li Mu and soon approached the Dongjiang County City.

"Elder Qing, you can arrange it, I will only follow you. Li Mu looked around curiously, along the way they had already passed by five cities, two of which were much larger than Heshan City!

In a short time, the two of them had already arrived at the gate of the city.

"You two! Stop for Lao Tzu!" A soldier in blue armor on the left shouted, and before Li Mu could react, the soldier next to him hurriedly ran up, "Shut up!

The soldier turned his head and smiled at Qing Ke: "Elder Qing Ke, it's you~ This kid is new here, I don't know you, I hope you have a lot of adults, bypass him this time." ”

"Hehe, new here?" Qing Ke smiled lightly, he looked at the blue armor on the man's body, which was printed with a strange pattern, and in the middle was the word "Wu", Qing Ke's eyes were cold, and he immediately said: "You can bypass his life today, if there is a ...... next time"

The blue-armored soldier on the side ran to the front in a panic, his face had a hint of horror, "Elder spare your life, Elder spare your life, I won't dare next time~"

Li Mu looked at everything in his eyes, he was a little strange, just now he felt that the blue armored soldier's clothes seemed to be seen somewhere, and the attitude of Elder Qingke just now also made him feel wrong, although he didn't get along with Elder Qingke for a long time, but he also knew that Elder Qingke was generally not so domineering, he looked carefully at the soldier's armor, and three figures flashed in his mind, "Is it ......"

Qing Ke waved his sleeve robe, turned and left, and Li Mu followed him into the city.

"Li Mu, are you surprised by my attitude just now?" Qingke walked in front and said slowly.

"It's... I have some guesses, but I don't know if it's or not. Li Mu looked at Qingke in front of him and replied cautiously.

"Tell me about it. Qing Ke replied casually, Li Mu paused, and said: "I remember that when the family had an accident the day before yesterday, Zhou Jie and his two senior brothers were wearing blue robes, and there was also a 'martial' character on it, but they didn't have that unique pattern. Come to think of it, that soldier just now should have something to do with the Spirit Martial Academy. ”

Qing Ke looked at Li Mu in some surprise, he nodded, "You're right, that soldier is a disciple of the Lingwu Academy, but he just entered the county guard army to accumulate military merits," "Accumulate military merits?" Li Mu was a little curious, as a spiritual cultivator, he still needs to enter the army?

Qingke seemed to see Li Mu's puzzlement, and he explained: "For the disciples of the academy, if the talent is not enough, it will be difficult to get ahead, but the troops who join the county guard can accumulate military merits, and the accumulated military merits can be recommended to enter the imperial city when they reach the standard, but these are just mediocre stubs, and they are not enough." A hint of mockery appeared at the corner of Qing Ke's mouth, "The reason why I'm angry is because that disciple of the Spirit Martial Academy just now was originally coming for me!"

Li Mu's heart moved, "Elder Qing, could it be that the Spirit Martial Academy and our Holy Spirit Academy have a holiday?"

Qing Ke looked at Li Mu with a teachable expression, "The Spirit Martial Academy and our Holy Spirit Academy have a long-standing feud, and it is deep-rooted, the disciples of the two academies are clear, and the disciple of the Spirit Martial Academy just now spoke in such a fierce tone when he saw the Spirit Spirit Sword symbol of the Holy Spirit Academy on my cuffs." He's new, but it's only because I'm from the Holy Spirit Academy. That's why I scolded him. After you enter the academy, you must remember that the 'Spirit Hunting Competition' after March will require tens of thousands of people from the Soul Martial Arts Academy to stumble!"

"Yes, the disciple remembered!" Li Mu understood in his heart, but he didn't know what the "Spirit Hunting Competition" was, and if he wanted to enter the academy, he could easily find out, so he didn't ask Qing Ke again.

The two talked all the way, and soon came to a tall building, which was five or six feet high, about five stories high, and above it was a golden eaves with a square roof. Below, the vermilion lacquer gate was open, and above the door was a golden plaque with the words "Holy Emperor Exchange" written on it.

"Alright, here we go. The two walked to the door, and the guards on both sides stretched out their hands to stop them, and Qingke stepped forward, took out a token, and the gatekeeper flashed a way. Qing Ke walked inside, then turned his head and said to Li Mu: "Boy, don't hurry up and keep up!"

Li Mu followed Qingke all the way inside, only to see a long crystal platform on both sides, and there were a few people standing inside who seemed to be in charge, receiving the guests next to him. Looking around, the hall was full of people, gathered together, shouting something, Qing Ke took Li Mu up to the second floor and entered a side room.

When I entered the room, I saw a woman in a cyan long skirt who looked to be twenty-four or five years old waiting, her fingers were slightly curled, and she turned sideways, looking charming, "It turned out to be Elder Qingke, it's rare for you to come to us in person, I don't know if there is anything you want someone to help you?"

"Hmph, it doesn't have to be like this, I'm here today to ride the wind and the grass!" Qingke sat on the chair next to him and said unceremoniously. "Yo~ Elder Qingke, you came by coincidence, this Wind Riding Sky Ling Grass is out of stock on weekdays, and today I just sent a plant, I don't know if it's your luck or well-informed~" The woman's fingers tapped on the tabletop and looked at Qingke with a smile.

"Yan Ji, I don't have the time to make small talk with you here!" Qing Ke frowned, a little displeased.

"Elder Qing, don't be angry, you see, isn't it~" The woman named Yan Ji flipped her palm, and saw that a round hole appeared on the tabletop, and she took out a box from it and opened it slowly.

Li Mu looked at it intently, and saw that there was a spiritual grass of an inch size in the box, the leaves were green and blue, and the spiritual power lingered between the branches and leaves, and he could feel a little wind howling.

Qingke took it and looked at it carefully, "Well, yes, I want it, this is a thousand spirit stones!"

Qing Ke said, swiping his palm, took out a bag, and threw it on the table. Li Mu's eyes froze, he looked at Qingke's finger, and saw that the black ring on his index finger was shining with a ghostly light - the storage spirit ring!

"Elder Qing doesn't know that this Wind Controlling Heaven Ling Grass was brought back from the Desperate Valley by a mercenary team after sacrificing three or four members, this price. I'm afraid it's not these~" Yan Ji smiled skillfully, stroked her lips with her palm, and said slowly.

"Hmph, do you think the old man doesn't understand?" Qing Ke was a little angry, he looked at the spirit grass in front of him, as if he thought of something, and didn't say anything for a while. "Where do people dare to deceive your old man, you are the hall master in charge of the barter hall of the Holy Spirit Academy, and you know the price of this elixir best, but those mercenaries have suffered heavy casualties, so you have to give some comfort anyway~" Yan Ji dialed the box and said with a smile.

"That's it, here you go!" As Qingke dropped another bag, the box was already in his hand with the absorption of spiritual power in his palm, and with a movement of his fingertips, the box had been put into the storage ring by him. "Giggles~ Thank you Elder Qingke!"

"Li Mu, let's go. Qingke got up and was about to leave. Li Mu didn't speak, he followed behind, but he was shocked in his heart, just now it was two thousand spirit stones, and he actually bought a medicinal herb!

"Elder Qingke, who is this little brother~ People remember that your disciple is Sikong Ember that kid, is it possible that you don't like him and have changed an heir~" Yan Ji's voice came from behind him, "It's not for you to bother! Qingke pushed open the door and left here with Li Mu.

In the side room, Yan Ji contemplated something, "Elder Qing, you go and check that kid just now, he looks like he is only thirteen or fourteen years old, and he has already reached the second level of the Xuanling Realm, I am afraid that he is already close to the core disciple of the Holy Spirit Academy, where has such a genius emerged from the Holy Spirit Academy." ”

"Yes!" With a voice behind him, a dark shadow flashed and disappeared in an instant.

"Elder Qing, what is this elixir?" Li Mu followed behind, and asked with some curiosity, he knew what two thousand spirit stones meant, even if the three major families of Heshan City got together, they couldn't take it out, and they used it just now, and what they bought was just a medicinal herb.

"This is a precious wind attribute elixir called 'Wind Controlling Heavenly Ling Grass'. It is a kind of treasure for wind attribute martial artists, and it is of great benefit to break through the bottleneck and condense the wind attribute spiritual power. Qing Ke explained casually, and then said: "Boy, this Holy Emperor Exchange is under the jurisdiction of the County Guard, and it is a branch of the great power of the Imperial City, and it is also a great branch in this Dongjiang County, but you have to remember, don't trust them easily, if necessary, you can buy them in the barter hall in the academy, where the things sold by the academy are cheaper and will not be deceived, if it weren't for the fact that this 'Wind Riding Heavenly Grass' is too difficult to find, I wouldn't have gone there." Okay, now we can go to the academy, I think you've been looking forward to it for a long time. ”
