"Hey, Little Sword Immortal Li Laoyue is not in the marked location, we are going to go to the next place Zhang Jinhammer!"

The sudden voice shook Yu Shangyan's ears without warning, causing him to smack his tongue. Although it was afternoon, Yu Shangyan didn't have time to rest, and was sitting in the hall, dealing with the affairs of the temple. Beside her, Qing Xunzi accompanied her, and seeing that her expression had changed, she said intimately:

"I've been busy for so long, you go and rest, I'll just take care of things here."

"It's okay, it's Ah Candle who has news, Li Laoyue doesn't know his whereabouts, so he went to find Zhang Jinhammer."

Qing Xunzi suddenly realized, but this kind of thing is not unexpected, after all, the news of these hermits is passed on by word of mouth, and only a few have been confirmed by Zhuangzong, so it is normal to not find it.

Time passed slowly, and the once strong man may have fallen somewhere, waiting for someone to get a chance in the northeast corner of this huge prosperous continent. Yu Shangyan said that although they want to recruit strong people, it depends more on fate. After all, this kind of thing can't be forced, and if you are too strong, you will only ruin your reputation.

If a force wants to become bigger and stronger, what it cares about most is reputation, and if it has a bad reputation, even if the road is paved perfectly, it will become narrower and narrower, until it finally blocks itself. Therefore, Yu Shangyan was not in much of a hurry at this time, and if one person came, he could temporarily alleviate the embarrassing situation in the deserted hall.

"Go and invite Zhao Xinluo to come, as soon as the people from Jishicheng arrive, we will hold a meeting and let them choose whether to leave or stay."

"What if they want to go? Especially in Jishi City, there are more than 100 people as soon as they come, and we have to prepare in advance, otherwise we are afraid that the bamboo basket will be empty. ”

"Let's go? Now that you're here, don't even think about leaving! ”

Yu Shangyan's voice was calm, but her temperament was vividly displayed, which made Qing Xunzi smile slightly when she saw it. It was an extremely subtle expression, but it was noticed by Yu Shangyan. She turned her head to look at Xunzi, who immediately saluted for forgiveness, and took the initiative to explain:

"The hall master's temperament reminds me of Xia Xiao, I don't have any other intentions, and I hope that the hall lord will forgive me."

"Xia Xiao? What kind of character is he? ”

"Although this disciple is cold, he is also so strong, and many times he is very similar to the hall master, a typical ...... Bandits, as long as they like it, they will try to get it. ”

"What a bandit, but I need people, and they're coming, and if I can't keep them, won't I seem incompetent?"

I feel that Zhao Xinluo has repeatedly broken through the shackles without success, but it is better to win over. It's just that although Su Ran and the others don't pay attention to external activities all year round, they are not as reclusive as Zhao Xinluo, so they have not expressed their position, maybe they have no intention of taking refuge in our desolate palace. ”

"Nope! They will definitely join in. ”

Qing Xunzi was a little curious about why, so Yu Shangyan told him about it.

"In the past, it was Zhuangzong who supported the economic expenses of Jishicheng, but now as soon as we appear, the pressure on Zhuangzong is great, and I think they will withdraw their support for Jishicheng sooner or later. When I inquired about the hermit's news, the second elder told me that the Zhuang Sect would give up the stubborn Jishi City. For Zhuangzong, an organization that does not want to join and has no benefits is just a burden for himself. ”

"And now?"

"The day before yesterday, Zhuangzong cut off the transportation of resources. If they want to continue to practice medicine without resources, they have to join the forces that are on a par with Zhuangzong, although we are not as good as Zhuangzong now, but the momentum is booming, and he can only join us. But there will definitely be a price, and what I'm doing on this trip is to reduce what is in it. Under pressure, as long as it is not too excessive, they will actively join in, and there will be no second words. ”

Qing Xunzi nodded thoughtfully, and immediately prepared to go to Zhao Xinluo to show his attention, Yu Shangyan sat in place, waved his hand to change the hall, so that the seats were hundreds and neatly placed, and did not forget to say coldly:

"Fix your stinky problems in the future."

When Qing Xunzi at the door heard this, he immediately froze in place, and then reacted, his old face was full of smiles.

Soon, the hall was full of people, and the main and deputy hall masters of each hall and Zhao Xinluo, Su Ran and others were sitting in it, and the atmosphere was a little dignified. Although they have come here, they have not yet made up their minds, but they already have the answer in their hearts, and they just want to see Yu Shangyan's attitude and the benefits they can get.

How contemptuous Xia Xiao and Ah Candle were before, how rich the expression on Zhao Xinluo's face was at this time. This hook-nosed man had a gloomy face, lest he be disrespectful to the two of them and bring disaster, who would have thought that the Prosperous Continent had not changed much in the past 100,000 years, but in just a few months, earth-shaking changes had taken place, and all this was only because of a few outsiders.

If it weren't for hearing it with his own ears, seeing the treatment of the Desolate Palace with his own eyes, and encountering the Heavenly Palace to transport resources to them, maybe Zhao Xinluo wouldn't have believed Xia Xiao and Ah Candle's words.

At this time, he finally understood why Xia Xiao and the others were so confident. After he came to the desolate hall, he really didn't dare to leave easily. Su Ran was the same, and looked at Yu Shangyan with the people behind him, and listened to him:

"Welcome to the Deserted Palace, since everyone has come all the way, I will get straight to the point. After speaking, whether you leave or stay, it is all up to your own will, and I, as the lord of the hall, will never force you. As for the Deserted Hall now, the situation is quite special, because it has just been established, and the disciples with good conditions are complete, but there is no elder to guide them, so I would like to ask you to stay in the Deserted Hall and serve the Deserted Palace. ”

"We won't treat everyone badly, but whoever becomes a part of the Desolate Temple, the Elixir Holy Fruit will be provided on a monthly basis. Of course, the more outstanding the performance, the more rewards are given, and there are also penalties if the performance is too bad. If you have any suggestions or requirements, you can put them forward now, I hope to get you, and I hope that you will willingly stay in the deserted hall, and create a powerful force together, shocking and prosperous! ”

This kind of pride and ambition has always been useful to young people, but Zhao Xinluo and Su Ran were extremely calm and did not get excited at all. The former's face was grim, and he thought for a moment before asking:

"I've been in the Deserted Temple for three days, I know a lot of things, and I also have the idea of serving the Deserted Temple, but I hope that the hall master will give me an accurate answer. After I, Zhao Xinluo, joined the Desert Palace, what position can I sit in? What exactly do you do? What do you get? These are the things I wonder about right now. ”

"It's that I didn't make it clear, so let's say it one by one. First of all, there is the issue of location, when you join the Deserted Palace, it is a unified identity as an elder, as for the location, it is not detailed, everything is based on strength. You are directly under my orders, and you are not bound by the Five Elements Hall, but you can properly manage the Five Elements Hall. ”

"The specific content of the work, but to give all the disciples guidance on the problems of cultivation. Of course, there is no specific number of people for each elder, and it is all up to him. Which disciple can talk to you depends on their creation, but at least three disciples are instructed every month. There is also the maintenance of the dignity of the barren hall, and when the barren hall develops in the future, there will definitely be a task every month, which is not heavy, right? ”

Zhao Xinluo shook his head, it is indeed not heavy, if you are careful, you can complete the work of explaining to your disciples in a few hours, as for the task, it will not be in a short time. Even if there were, it wouldn't last for a month. In this way, it is indeed good, it depends on what you can get.

"One last question, what can I get? This is indeed a reality, and it is worth our attention. I'm not an idealist, and I don't like to talk about selfless dedication and overall accolades, which are not the whole story, and I don't like to ask people for that. And I've always been generous to my own people. For example, if Zhao Xinluo joins the Wasteland, he will help you complete the fifteen-fold thing first. ”

"During this period, there will be no shortage of resources such as elixir holy fruits. As for the monthly income, you can refer to what I said before. As for the specific regulations, although they have not yet been formulated, we need your participation in them, and it is not too late to talk about them later. In short, remember that the Deserted Temple will not treat anyone who joins in. ”

"Is that true?"

Xia Xiao actually said this, but it was not as convincing as what Yu Shangyan said, which made Zhao Xinluo a little excited. Yu Shangyan didn't seem to be joking now, he nodded immediately, which made him a little excited, and after thinking for a while, he knew that he had become a person who didn't know how to lift up when he left the gate of this deserted palace, so he took the lead and said:

"The hall master is indeed sincere, and the barren palace also has the attitude of a gentleman, I, Zhao Xinluo, am willing to join it!"

"Then Elder Zhao is the first elder of my Desolate Palace."

Yu Shangyan waved his hand, and the maid arranged by Steward Yang on the side held a wooden box and presented it to him. In the tray, there is also a medium-grade empty ring. Seeing this, Zhao Xinluo, who had just saluted, bowed again, and lowered his hooked nose slightly.

"Your Excellency, this kind of ceremony is really evil."

"It doesn't matter, you are the first batch of elders to join the Desolate Temple, so you can naturally enjoy this kind of treatment."

Yu Shangyan's generosity is also conditional, she decided to exchange the disciples for four years each, but this one, because of the poor conditions of the desolate hall itself, was extended to five years. In the past five years, some Zhao Xinluo has been busy, and he naturally can't be stingy at present. After buying people's hearts, even if they don't let them do things for themselves, they will think about the desolate temple.

"Then thank you, Your Highness."

Zhao Xinluo was secretly happy in his heart, not because of what he got, but because he cooperated so much, that Xia Xiao and Ah Candle would never make it difficult for them because of their rudeness to them in Daqingshan. Zhao Xinluo undoubtedly thought a lot, but Su Ran didn't have much to do, at this time, he glanced at Yu Shangyan, his heart trembled, and said:

"I wonder what the hall master thinks of our Jishi City?"

Yu Shangyan's strength is not enough to be so feared by Jishi City, in fact, the strength of the entire desolate hall is supported by Ah Candle alone. Whether she is a pillar or the kind of jewel that is unusually wide and will not collapse, Su Ran is afraid of it. And Yu Shangyan glanced at it, with a hint of bad intentions in his eyes, which made Su Ran sigh secretly, feeling that Jishi City was far away from a comfortable day.

They who have been indulged by Zhuangzong should also face up to the cruel beatings in the world!
