Chapter 854: Treasure Hunter
West Desert City.
The Western Wilderness City is a city on the edge of the Western Wilderness, and there are many Qi refining stage immortal cultivators who live in the city by hunting for treasures.
this day.
A young young man, followed by a middle-aged man, entered the Western Wilderness City.
The guide of the West Wilderness City, also known as the guide, saw at a glance that this young man was not the aborigines of the West Wilderness City, but came from outside.
Because there is a legend of the Great War of Immortals in the Western Wilderness, there are many immortal cultivators who are close to the Western Wilderness City, and even immortal cultivators in the Western Divine Domain, who will come to the Western Wilderness City and want to go to the Western Wilderness to hunt for treasures.
Therefore, the profession of guide was also born in the West Wilderness City.
It is specially designed to provide routes for these sect teenagers who come to the Western Wilderness City to hunt for treasures, or introduce experienced treasure hunters to earn a referral fee.
In addition, what was revealed on the young man's body was the cultivation of the Qi refining period, and the middle-aged man behind him was a protector at a glance, but his breath could not be detected, so it should be the foundation building period.
In the Western Wilderness City, the aborigines basically do not have a foundation building period, only the immortal cultivators who come from outside will have a foundation building period.
However, when entering the Western Wasteland, you can't run rampant in the Western Wasteland by virtue of the foundation building period. There are many dangerous places that are ravaged by wind and sand, even if the foundation building period is entered, without the guidance of treasure hunters, it is easy to die in the Western Wilderness.
"Look at the robes on this body, as well as the seniors behind him, who are from the sect, they are a fat sheep."
Therefore, more than a dozen guides came over together, and they all bowed their hands to the young man: "This master, but you are going to the Western Wastelands to hunt for treasures?"
However, the young man's eyes wandered over the dozen or so guides, and the protector behind him did not say a word.
A smile appeared on the young man's face and said, "Yes, I am going to the Western Wastelands to hunt for treasures, and I heard that there are many treasures left behind after the Immortal War in the Western Wastelands."
A guide said quickly, "Master, let me tell you, this Western Wilderness is dangerous, there are many Jedi, even this foundation building predecessor behind you may not be able to protect your safety, entering the Western Wilderness Land, you must be led by an experienced treasure hunter to ensure safety."
Hearing this, the young man said, "Oh, what you said, I also inquired before I came, and I heard that in this Western Wilderness City, if you have the most experience in treasure hunting, it is the father and son of Hu Baye and Hu Jiuye?"
When the guide heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "It turns out that you have done your homework. Yes, if you have the most experience in treasure hunting in the Western Wilderness City, it should be Hu Baye and Hu Jiuye, father and son, led by them, and no one died in the Western Wilderness."
"But?" Speaking of this, the guide's eyes rolled and said, "Hu Baye and Hu Jiuye are famous, but it is more difficult to be moved."
When the young man heard this, he glanced at him and said with a smile: "Please don't be invited, you don't need to bother, you just need to take me to see Hu Baye and Hu Jiuye!"
"Okay, please come with me!" When the guide heard this, Mei Zizi turned around and immediately led the way.
When the other guides saw this, they could only sigh, and turned to continue to see if there were any other nobles who needed their guidance.
A quarter of an hour later, the guide stopped in front of a large compound and said to the young man and the middle-aged man who guarded the road, "Second master, this is the Hu family."
"Please wait, I'll knock!"
After that, the guide came to the door of Hu's mansion and knocked lightly, and after a while, a middle-aged man wearing steward's clothes opened the door, and when he saw the guide, he obviously knew, and he smiled: "It turned out to be Liu Le'er, what's the matter, and brought someone over to see Hu Ye?"
The guide, that is, Liu Le'er, first bowed to the Hu family steward, and then gave up his position, revealing the figures of the young man and the middle-aged man who protected the road, and said to the Hu family steward: "These two masters want to go to the Western Wilderness Land to hunt for treasures, admire the skills of the two Hu masters in the Western Wilderness City, and want to ask the two Hu masters to take them there."
When the housekeeper of the Hu family heard this, he glanced at the young man and the middle-aged man who protected the way, and saw that the robes on the two of them were very high-level, and he couldn't detect the breath of the middle-aged man who protected the way, so he knew that it must be above the qi refining.
Hu Baye, Hu Jiuye though
It is famous in the West Wilderness City, but it is only a treasure hunter, and it is only a cultivation in the Qi refining period, and it has not yet built a foundation, so in the face of a foundation cultivator, he still does not dare to hold it up, so the Hu family steward said to the guide Liu Le'er: "Okay, you go and tell them, and your task will be completed."
When Liu Leer heard this, she immediately smiled and said to the Hu family steward, "Okay, thank you Hu."
After speaking, Liu Le'er turned around and came to the young man and the middle-aged man who protected the road and said, "Second master, I will lead you here, and then this Hu steward will take you to see Hu Baye and Hu Jiuye."
The young man glanced at the steward, stretched out his hand and wiped it on his waist, and ten pieces of white flower lower grade spirit stones appeared in his hand, threw them at the guide Liu Le'er, and said, "This is your introduction fee."
"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir." Then these 10 lower-grade spirit stones, Liu Leer's eyes smiled like chrysanthemums, and then he glanced at Hu Guanshi, and told Hu Guanshi with his eyes that he would share some of his low-grade spirit stones.
This is a deal between him Liu Leer and Steward Hu, he brought people over, and Steward Hu introduced people to Hu Baye and Hu Jiuye. If other guides come over, bringing those who have not yet cultivated to the foundation building period, the Hu steward will not let them enter the door.
I don't let you in, so naturally there is no introduction fee.
Steward Hu nodded lightly at Liu Le'er, and then said to the young man and the middle-aged man who protected the way, "Please come in, two of you."
"Thank you." The young man of Qi refining bowed to the steward of the Hu family, which is worthy of being from a large sect, and this ceremony is comprehensive.
And the middle-aged man behind him was silent.
In this regard, the Hu family steward didn't care, he also knew that when a big sect like this came out, the protectors who followed behind him were only responsible for protecting safety, and would not care about other miscellaneous matters.
The housekeeper of the Hu family invited the young man refining qi and the middle-aged man who protected the path to the waiting hall of the Hu family, and ordered a maid to serve two cups of tea, and said, "You two, please wait a while, I will go and invite Master Hu."
After that, the housekeeper of the Hu family left the waiting hall and went to Hu Jiuye's cultivation residence to ask for instructions.
Hu Baye was cultivating at this time, and Hu Jiuye had just come out of retreat yesterday, so this was also the reason why the Hu family steward invited the Qi refining boy and the middle-aged man who protected the Dao to come in.
Soon the housekeeper of the Hu family saw Hu Jiuye, Hu Jiuye was playing with a broken fragment in his hand, the fragment did not know what kind of material it was, it should have come out of the Western Wilderness, and he was studying it carefully, he saw the Hu steward to tell him, so he let the Hu steward come in and said while playing with the fragments, "What's the matter?"
Steward Hu bowed down and said, "Back to the Ninth Master, there are immortal cultivators from outside who want to go into the Western Wastelands to hunt for treasures?"
When Hu Jiuye heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said unhappily, "My father is in retreat and cultivating, didn't he already explain to you that during this period of retreat and cultivation, he would not take people into the Western Wilderness?"
When the steward of the Hu family heard this, he said helplessly: "Back to the ninth master, the order of the eighth master, the small one obeys it, but the other party is not small, the one should be from the big sect outside, and the protector behind him is the foundation builder."
Hearing that it was Zhuji cultivation, Hu Jiuye's frowning brows lowered slightly, and said, "Okay, I'll go see them."
Seeing that Hu Jiuye did not continue to blame him, Steward Hu was relieved, and hurriedly got up and took Hu Jiuye to the waiting hall.
Coming to the waiting hall, Steward Hu introduced the young man refining qi and the middle-aged man who protected the way: "Second master, this is the ninth master of my Hu family."
The qi refining boy looked up at Hu Jiuye, and saw that Hu Jiuye was in his early thirties, but his actual age should be older, because Hu Jiuye was a seventh-level Qi refining cultivator, and he had already explored these things when he came to the Western Wilderness City.
He said, "Hu Jiuye is reasonable, what about Hu Baye?"
When Hu Jiuye heard this, Yu Guang glanced at the middle-aged man who was sitting upright, bowed to the young man refining qi, and said, "My father is in retreat and cultivating, I don't know which sect your friend is from? What do you call it? What is this senior's name?"
The Qi refining boy said, "I see, I am Yu Qing of the Lingshan Sect, this is my protector, Hu Daoyou can call him Senior Liu."
As soon as Hu Jiuye's mind turned, he had already searched for the Lingshan Sect
It seems that this father in Qing should be a Jindan Immortal Cultivator, otherwise, there would be no Foundation Immortal Cultivator as his protector.
Now that he knows Yu Qing's identity, Hu Jiuye has to be careful.
In the eyes of these Jindan sects, in fact, the treasure hunters of the Western Wilderness City can't get on any stage.
If you can stay in the Western God Domain, how can you settle in the Western Wilderness City?
Therefore, Hu Jiuye ordered the maid to put on the spirit fruit, changed it to a good spirit tea, and warmly entertained Yu Qing, and then said, "Yu Daoyou wants to enter the Western Wilderness to hunt for treasure?"
Yu Qing nodded and smiled when he heard this: "Of course, if I didn't want to enter the Western Wilderness Land to hunt for treasure, why would I come from the Western Wilderness City to find Hu Daoyou."
Hu Jiuye's heart moved slightly, for immortal cultivators from a big sect like Yu Qing, they all knew in their hearts that most people just wanted to experience the feeling of treasure hunting, so he said directly: "Yu Daoyou will tell you the truth, in the Western Wilderness, I have been searched by treasure hunters so many times, although I haven't set foot all of them, but it is very likely that I will return empty-handed, I hope that Yu Daoyou will be mentally prepared in advance."
As a senior treasure hunter, Hu Jiuye must be mentally prepared for this, otherwise Yu Qing did not find the treasure, and in anger, he let the protector behind him take action, which would be terrible.
Yu Qing said with a smile, "I know this, but this time I came with a clue, and I will definitely not return empty-handed."
"Clues?" Hu Jiuye's expression moved: "Could it be that there is a treasure hunting map in the hands of Daoyou?"
Bruise smiled and nodded, "Yes, I have a treasure map in my hand, and I came here this time just to ask your Hu family to take me to the location of the treasure map."
As he spoke, Bruise reached out and touched his waist, and a black turtle shell appeared in his hand, with white lines on the turtle shell.
He put the turtle shell on the table in front of Hu Jiuye, and motioned for Hu Jiuye to check, Hu Jiuye picked up the turtle shell to look at those white lines, the more he looked at it, the more familiar he felt, it looked like a place somewhere in the Western Wasteland, and suddenly his eyes moved, and he put the turtle shell down.
Then he solemnly said to Qing: "Yu Daoyou, the lines on this treasure map are indeed there, my Hu family knows where it is, but please understand Yu Daoyou, my Hu family can't go to that place."
Bruise frowned, looked at Hu Jiuye and said, "Why can't you go?"
Hu Jiuye sighed and said, "Let's tell Yu Daoyou the truth, that place is the burial place of my grandfather Hu Qiye, so my father has a warning, and the people of the Hu family must not go there in the future."
Bruise pondered for a moment and asked, "Dare to ask Hu Qiye how long it takes to enter that realm to cultivate?"
When Hu Jiuye heard this, he said, "Qi refining 7th layer!"
Hearing this, Bruise pointed to the middle-aged man sitting next to him and said, "Then please rest assured that Hu Jiuye, Uncle Liu is the fifth layer of the foundation and can protect us."
When Hu Jiuye heard what he said, he felt funny in his heart, but he also knew that this was what the immortal cultivators from the outside world said when they were not familiar with the Western Wilderness, so he explained: "Yu Daoyou, the Western Wilderness is not something that can be broken into by cultivation, it has nothing to do with cultivation, it is only about experience, or the experience that generations of treasure hunters have explored with their lives."
"Nine generations of my Hu family are all treasure hunters, and it is the sacrifice of seven generations that has established my Hu family's first-class position as a treasure hunter in this Western Wilderness City, which is all earned with life."
Bruise didn't care when he heard his explanation, but said, "Then I dare to ask Hu Jiuye, your Hu family has been a treasure hunter in the Western Wilderness City for generations, but why?"
When Hu Jiuye heard what he said, he was silent, and finally sighed and said, "Naturally, it is for the Hu family to have someone to build a foundation one day."
Bruise smiled, "Then what if I use a Tsukidan as a reward for the Hu family to lead the way for me this time?"
Hearing what the bruise said, Hu Jiuye's heart trembled, and his eyes were already moved, boiled eggs are too precious for the Hu family, his father Hu Baye is now at the 8th level of Qi refining, and he will soon break through to the 9th layer of Qi refining, if there is a boiled egg, there is a chance to build a foundation.
Once the foundation is built, you can get rid of the identity of a treasure hunter,
Leave this aura-barren Western Wasteland and enter the Western Divine Domain to gain a foothold.
However, it is not him who makes the decision now, but his father Hu Baye, even if he wants to agree, there is no way, so he said to Qing: "Yu Daoyou, please wait for me for a while, I will go to my father's retreat and practice place to discuss with him."
The bruises were not in a hurry, and nodded and said, "Okay, then you can go."
Hu Jiuye admonished the Hu family steward to entertain him, and then left the waiting hall and came to his father Hu Baye's retreat and cultivation place, interrupting Hu Baye's retreat.
"What?" Hu Baye looked at Hu Jiuye calmly.
Hu Jiu Ye said, "Father, there is a young man refining qi from the Spirit Mountain Sect of the Western God Domain, followed by a foundation builder, and he wants my father and I to take him to the Western Wasteland to hunt for treasures."
When Hu Baye heard this, he immediately said, "You go and push it, I have always told you that treasure hunting is just one of the means for my Hu family to earn cultivation resources, and to earn cultivation resources, you must first improve your own realm, and the next treasure hunt will be able to ensure your own safety."
"Father, it's not that I don't want to dismiss them, it's just that they are too paid." Hu Jiuye said.
"How tall?"
"One Tsukidan!"
"What?" When Hu Baye heard this, he lost his voice slightly.
"The other party actually gave up a Tsukidan?" Hu Baye didn't believe it at all.
Hu Jiuye said, "The other party has a treasure map, and the realm on the treasure map is where my grandfather was buried. I suspect that the immortal cultivator of the Spirit Mountain Sect also wanted to find that treasure, so he gave up a Tsukidan as a reward."
