readx;? Xin Yan followed behind Caiyi and Gu Shuangfei and came to the Linglong Pavilion where Xue Yi lived. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Linglong Pavilion is built along the mountain and water, the attic is scattered, and there are pots of spiritual flowers and spiritual grass everywhere inside.

"Lord Xin Yan Peak is here, if you miss the distance, please come in. ”

Xin Yan arrived at Linglong Pavilion, and a beautiful woman greeted her.

Xin Yan knew that this woman was Xue Yi, the lord of Tianxiang Valley, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly returned the salute: "Xin Yan has seen Senior Sister Xue Yi. While saluting, he looked at Xue Yi, only to see Xue Yi wearing a jade palace robe, draped in a white gauze robe, and the pleats of the skirt flowed lightly on the ground like snow and moonlight, more than three feet long, making his gait more graceful and soft, as if he was in smoke.

What surprised Xin Yan the most was that Xue Yi did not have any mana fluctuations on her body, and at a glance, she was no different from a mortal. But Xin Yan couldn't help but be secretly frightened after seeing Xue Yi, he could even be sure that Xue Yi was by no means a monk above the late Yuan Infant period as people said, but a master of Mahayana cultivation.

Xin Yan and Xue Yi were noisy for a while, and then under the guidance of Xue Yi, they came to a private room in Linglong Pavilion. However, when he saw the situation in front of him, he couldn't help but be stunned, this elegant room was not as magnificent as he imagined, all he saw was a stone table, several stone benches, and on the side of the stone bench, a maid-like girl was making tea, and the room exuded a faint fragrance of spiritual tea.

Xin Yan and Xue Yi sat as guests, and the maid-like girl had already brought the teacup.

Xueyi's teacups are just fired from ordinary black mud, and the shape is simple, even a little rough, but it has a unique rustic beauty. What really surprised Xin Yan was the spiritual tea in this cup, the slightly rippling tea with a touch of goose yellow, extremely clear, under the dappled sunlight, the mist rose in circles, and the aroma was curling.

Looking at the spiritual tea in front of him, Xin Yan couldn't help but think of the situation when he and Nangong Yunshan drank tea in Tianxing City.

Xue Yi let go of his hand and said, "Senior Brother Xin, please use tea." ”

Xin Yan picked up the spiritual tea, drank it all, when he entered, the tea taste was very light, but under the careful tasting, there was an endless aftertaste, and gradually his state of mind became as clear and pure as tea, ethereal and transparent......

After a long time, Xin Yan woke up, his eyes were a little clearer, and they became more and more profound. He got up and saluted Xue Yi and said, "Thank you senior sister for the tea." ”

When he was drinking tea just now, he actually entered a kind of ethereal and mysterious magical realm, and many truths that he usually couldn't figure out were suddenly enlightened, and a sip of spiritual tea actually made him feel a lot, and his cultivation and realm were refined to a higher level.

Xue Yi said with a smile: "This is the enlightenment tea I planted, everyone will have different feelings when they drink it, but there are not many people like my junior brother who can enter epiphany." ”

Xin Yan saw that Xue Yi was kind and generous, and she had a good impression of her. He bowed and said: "I am stupid by nature, I don't understand tea, I can enter the state of epiphany, and I worship the power of this spiritual tea." ”

Xue Yi said: "Actually, the tea ceremony is the same as the sword ceremony, and you don't care about it. Some people don't understand the truth here, and they also make a lot of mysteries when drinking tea, as if they must drink how to show their cultivation identity. In fact, like a junior brother, acting according to his own mind and acting recklessly is the true character of a hero. Only with such true feelings as the junior and younger brothers, can we taste the true taste of this tea. ”

Xin Yan said: "Senior sister has won the award. I was originally a teenager in the countryside, and I usually drank water, not to mention the tea ceremony, even if I drank tea. However, speaking of which, I did drink tea once in Star City. At that time, it was an old man who made tea for me, and his tea set was as simple as my sister, but the spiritual tea brewed was thorough and charming. ”

When Xue Yi heard this, her heart moved, and she asked, "May I ask if this elder's tea stall is placed on the side of the road? Is the tea stall extremely simple? Well, the signboard is a dilapidated cloth curtain with three big characters for selling spiritual tea written crookedly with charcoal on it?"

Xin Yan slapped his thigh and said: "Exactly, this old man is sloppy in rags, the tea set is extremely simple, there is only a mud stove, and there is a broken jar on the stove, his method of making tea is also very interesting, grab a handful of tea leaves and throw them into the broken jar, stir them with a piece of bamboo, and then pour out a bowl of spiritual tea...... Saying that, he looked at Xue Yi and asked curiously: "Could it be that Senior Sister has also drunk the spiritual tea made by this old man?"

Xue Yi nodded and said, "Senior brother is really a blessing, this old man should be Shao Mingfeng, the master of the tea ceremony." I also learned the art of tea from his old man for a few days. ”

"What? This old man is actually Master Shao Mingfeng, the leading tea ceremony master in the cultivation realm?" Xin Yan couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that the old man he met back then was actually Master Shao Mingfeng.

Xue Yi said: "Master Shao Mingfeng plays the world and acts in an eclectic manner. The tea he brewed contains the philosophy of heaven, and it cannot be drunk unless it is destined. It is really a blessing that the junior brother can drink the bowl of tea he brewed. ”

Xin Yan nodded and said, "That's true." At the beginning, after I drank that bowl of spiritual tea, I actually entered a kind of ethereal and illusory magical realm, and many truths that I usually couldn't figure out suddenly became enlightened, and my cultivation and realm also improved to a higher level. ”

The more Xin Yan and Xue Yi talked, the more speculative they became, and they both had a sense of hating each other. Cai Yi and Gu Shuangfei were stunned from the side, and their hearts were amazed.

Finally, after Xin Yan and Xue Yi talked for a long time, they finally returned to the topic.

Xue Yi said to Xin Yan: "This time, I invited my junior brother to come, mainly to ask for advice on how to manage a student gathering. Don't hide it from my junior brother, now our Tianxiang Valley is almost to the point where the lamp is running out and it is difficult to continue. ”

Xin Yan smiled: "Senior sister is serious. No matter how difficult Tianxiang Valley is, it is much stronger than my Tiansha Valley. I'm coming back, and I still want to ask my senior sister for help!" he handed over a jade slip and said, "I drafted a cooperation plan, and I also asked senior sister Yulan." ”

Xue Yi took the jade slip and read it carefully, the more she looked at it, the more shocked she became, Xin Yan's plan was bold and novel, far beyond her imagination, and even described as deviant.

The core concept of Xin Yan's plan can be described in four words - win-win cooperation. In his plan, he proposed to let Tianxiang Valley and Tiansha Peak, Lingxiao Sect, Yundao and Aoki Commercial Company form a business alliance, develop each other's strengths and avoid weaknesses, communicate with each other, and cooperate closely to become bigger and stronger.

If this plan can be successful, not only will Tianxiang Valley be able to get out of the predicament, but Tiansha Peak, Tianbei Peak, Lingxiao Sect, Cloud Island, and Aoki Trading House will also benefit from it.

Most importantly, Xin Yan's plan is extremely detailed, feasible and operable.

Xin Yan saw that Xue Yi's expression became more and more relaxed, and she was relieved to know that she had agreed with her plan.

In Xin Yan's opinion, the reason why Tianxiang Valley flourished in the past was because the North Courtyard itself was very strong, enough to support and maintain their operation.

The so-called skin does not exist, and the hair is attached.

With the decay and disintegration of the North Courtyard, the decline of Tianxiang Valley is also inevitable.

Therefore, in order to revitalize Tianxiang Valley, the key is not Tianxiang Valley itself, but must re-establish a system that is sufficient to support them.

For Lingxiao Sect, Yundao and Aoki Firm, cooperating with Tianxiang Valley is definitely a win-win choice.

Not to mention anything else, Tianxiang Valley, as a pharmacy and food pavilion in the North Courtyard, has a large number of rare prescriptions and food recipes that are not available in the outside world, which are secrets that are not passed down and are of immeasurable value.

In addition, through the trading between Tianxiang Valley and the various peaks, the Lingxiao Sect, Cloud Island, and Aoki Trading House could obtain some resources that they could not otherwise obtain, such as rare ores, pills, and the like, with these resources that were difficult for others to obtain, the Lingxiao Faction, Cloud Island, and Aoki Trading House could definitely develop faster.

Finally, Xue Yi closed the jade slip and said, "Senior brother is really worthy of being a business wizard, this plan is very good, and I have benefited a lot." ”

Xin Yan said: "Senior sister is too famous. This plan was not done by me alone, but was completed with the joint efforts of all of us in the merchant group. I just came up with some bad ideas. ”

Xue Yi said: "The so-called strange is born together. If it weren't for these crooked ideas of yours, I'm afraid that not only would my Tianxiang Valley be unthinkable, but even your Tiansha Valley would be difficult to maintain. ”

Xin Yan nodded and said, "This is all forced out. He and Xue Yi discussed the details of the cooperation again, and then returned to Tiansha Peak from Tianxiang Valley, preparing to welcome the arrival of Ah Wen, Wu Jin, Wen Xiu, Hu Zi, Ruolan, Yun Han, Mo Zheng and others.

"Alas, it seems that this time we will live a poor life again. ”

Xin Yan let out a long sigh. Originally, he wrote to Nangong Wuji and Nangong Yunshan, just to ask Wenxiu, Huzi and Ruolan and a few others to come over to help take care of Tiansha Peak, who knew that Nangong Wuji and Nangong Yunshan actually selected nearly 3,000 people to join Tiansha Peak. Moreover, 2,000 of these 3,000 people were purely combat teams, and there were only more than 800 production cultivators.

This made Xin Yan have a big headache. Such a large group of people can eat him poor just by eating.

However, the biggest headache for Xin Yan at the moment was how to place such a large group of cultivators. Tiansha Peak has been abandoned for a long time, and the temples everywhere are in ruins, and they can't live at all. He must not allow such a large crowd of people who have come to him to live in a cave.

"Or, you can build a city!" Suddenly, the Red Demon ran out, and he made a suggestion to Xin Yan.

Xin Yan was stunned when he heard this, and asked, "What! You said to build a city?"

The Red Demon nodded with great certainty and said, "Yes, build a city on the coral island near the Tianlan Sea from Tiansha Peak. ”

When Xin Yan heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned and said, "However, now it is occupied by a group of pirates. ”

The red demon smiled and said, "You say that you are useless, but you still don't recognize it." Isn't that your territory? You still don't dare to take it back if you let a group of pirates take it over? ”

"That's right. Even my brother's territory dares to occupy it, and I don't want to live anymore, right? Xin Yan thought about it and felt that it made sense. If he didn't even dare to clean up a group of pirates, he, the Lord of Tiansha Peak, would be in vain.

"However, Master told me to prepare for retreat. Xin Yan suddenly thought of another question.

The red demon said: "Retreat or something, how can it be compared with actual combat." You go and tell the old man surnamed Yuan that you are not very clear with Jianli now, and you want to prove it with war, and he will agree. ”
