Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Followers
"In Xia Zhao Li, I came to serve as the monk of Qingshan Town, and I came to meet Taoist friends. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Zhao Li stood outside the courtyard gate and said loudly.
Immediately, a beautiful friar came out, and when she saw this large circle of people, she was at first startled, and then her face showed a hint of joy.
"Senior, please come in. The friar stepped aside from the door and motioned for the monks to enter.
When Zhao Li passed by this maid, he sensed her cultivation, almost at the fourth or fifth level of qi refining, and then thought about the previous 'master', it should be the attendant received by the disciple of the Changge Sect in the courtyard.
Zhao Li walked into this courtyard and found that this courtyard was also carefully arranged, elegant and luxurious, obviously the builder had put a lot of effort into it, and there was a middle-aged monk wearing Confucian clothes standing in the courtyard, and there was also a beautiful female monk in the Qi refining period beside him, who should also be an attendant.
When this middle-aged monk in Confucian clothes saw Zhao Li coming in with a large group of people, the first thing he felt was the cultivation of Zhao Li and Nie Linghui in the foundation building period, and there was also a smile on his pale face.
With just one glance, Zhao Li could conclude that the Changge Sect monk in front of him was not lightly injured, his face was pale, and even the spiritual power fluctuations in his body were very weak.
"Shang Wenbo, a disciple of the outer sect of Xia Changge, I didn't expect to apply to the Immortal League a few days ago for an additional life, and today the Daoists have arrived, which sect are the Daoists from?" The middle-aged monk looked very happy, staring at Zhao Li and asked.
Among the several monks who came in, those who had not yet built the foundation were automatically ignored by Shang Wenle, no matter how low the standard was, it would not be the turn of the Qi refining period to serve as the town guard monk, as for Nie Linghui and Zhao Li, who had built the foundation, it was obvious that Zhao Li was the one in charge.
Although the cultivation of these two people is about the same, there is a very mysterious thing called 'temperament', not that Boss Nie has no temperament, but compared with Zhao Li, it is far behind.
In Shang Wenbo's first impression, Zhao Li may be a certain sect, at least not weaker than the inner disciple of the existence of the Changge Sect, because his temperament has a feeling that Shang Wenle can't see through, like a senior who has cultivated to a higher level, not like an ordinary foundation building monk.
Zhao Li naturally didn't know the subtle changes in his body - obtaining Shao Dafeng's memory of four hundred years was the main factor, even if he was an idiot, after browsing the life experience of a Jindan monk, he would become extraordinary.
"Under Zhao Li, it's a loose cultivator, is Shang Daoyou misunderstanding something?" Zhao Li asked while taking out his own town guard jade plate and handing it over, it was obvious that the town guard monk who was waiting for the head of the town guard monk was not him, he was not appointed a few days ago, but three months ago.
"Loose cultivation?"
Not only Shang Wenbo, but even the two maids beside him were also stunned.
Shang Wenbo took the jade plate of the town guard monk in a daze, looked at it twice, and made sure that it was the authentic product of his own sect.
"I was assigned three months ago, but I was ambushed by Yan Xiu on the way and was seriously injured, so I came late. Zhao Li explained by the way why he was so late.
Shang Wenbo raised his head, looked at Zhao Li, and then moved his gaze to Nie Linghui on the side, and finally swept over Cao Yang, Zhang Hongye and others behind the two, hesitated, and asked, "Then these are Daoyou's attendants?"
To be honest, Shang Wenbo was now wondering if Zhao Li was joking when he said that he was a casual cultivator, he hadn't seen a few casual cultivators.
After all, even he, the outer disciple of the Changge Sect, and the current chief monk of Qingshan Town, only raised two attendants.
"No, they are not my attendants, they are my followers. Zhao Li Zhengse said.
"Followers?" Shang Wenbo repeated, and it was even more strange, Nie Linghui, Zhang Hongye and the others beside Zhao Li had also heard this word for the first time.
"Yes, followers, partners who follow me on the path of cultivation, I call them followers. Zhao Li explained, this is a new word that he came up with - from some fantasy novels when he was sorting out the fragments of memory.
"Follower..." Zhang Hongye smashed the word in his mouth, in his eyes, Zhao Li's image was a little taller - the word follower was very high-grade as soon as he heard it, at least more than a little bit better than any attendant.
"Shang Daoyou, is it because I'm too late, and the position of this town guard monk has already been delegated to another place?" Zhao Li simply made his words clear.
The expression on Shang Wenbo's face was even more strange, and after a while, he said: "Absolutely not, cough, in fact, don't hide it from fellow Daoists, I have only been the chief town guard monk of Qingshan City for more than a month, and now all the town guard monks in Qingshan City, plus me, there are still six." ”
"What?" this time it was Zhao Li's turn to be strange.
It is not surprising that the chief town guard monk has been replaced, after all, in the formation of a new large army, it is normal for manpower to be replaced.
But now there are only six town guards in Qingshan City, which is not normal.
Qingshan City is a large city with a number of Qin land, hundreds of miles nearby, all kinds of towns and villages are attached to Qingshan City, with a large population, and there are many spiritual fields and medicine villages planted by monks around, such as the 'Liu's Medicine Village' where Zhao Li once stayed is one of them, such a place, at least a dozen or more town guards and monks are in charge.
"But it's because of Yan Xiu?" Zhao Li broke the silence.
"It turns out that the Taoist friends know about it. Shang Wenbo glanced at Zhao Li and said with a wry smile: "Now in the mountains outside Qingshan City, I don't know how many Yandi monks are hidden, specifically staring at Lingtian and Yaozhuang, and killing the town guard monks when they meet, just after I arrived here, there are more than 20 town guard monks, even I was a few days ago..."
The reason why Zhao Li was sure that Qingshan City still needed him was because he had obtained Shao Dafeng's memory and knew that Yan Di had also taken countermeasures against Qin Di.
In addition to sending a monk with advanced cultivation like Shao Dafeng to sneak attack a large-scale transportation magic weapon such as the Cloud Containment Flying Boat, Yandi also sent a large number of foundation-building and qi-refining cultivators into Qindi to destroy some basic logistics facilities.
The task of these foundation-building and qi-refining period cultivators is to destroy the spiritual fields and medicine villages in various places within the entire Qin region, it seems that Qingshan City, as a well-known big city in Qindi, will definitely not be able to escape, but Zhao Li didn't expect that these Yan cultivators who built the foundation and refined qi did much better than he remembered.
According to Shao Dafeng's memory, most of the monks sent in to destroy Lingtian and Yaozhuang were not strong, and they were not required to kill and injure Qin Xiu, they could do sabotage, but judging from the current situation in Qingshan City, they had also killed and injured many town guard monks! Even the outer disciples of the Changge Sect here were seriously injured.
