Chapter 183: Dawn
Seeing Yuan Ming's hesitation, Zhuo Lingling thought that the price was too high, which made Yuan Ming give up, and she was reluctant to run this business in vain, and after rolling her eyes, she said with a smile:
"Yuan Gongzi, I don't know how much Jinhua Dan you plan to buy?"
"Fifteen bottles." Yuan Ming replied.
When she heard the fifteen bottles, Zhuo Lingling's breathing was slightly short, and she couldn't help but shout in her heart, "This Yuan Gongzi of the Central Plains is her nobleman!"
In the last transaction, she had already earned a lot of commissions alone, and seeing that it was another big business, how could she watch it slip away from her?
"Yuan Gongzi, our Changxian Mansion has always attached great importance to high-quality guests like you, and we are also willing to treat them preferentially. The concubine represents our Changxian Building and gives you a Changxian order. In the future, with this token, you can enjoy high-quality treatment in any of our Changxian Lou shops, and you have the right of first refusal to buy all the goods sold. In addition, we will be able to participate in our in-house auction of Changxian Building, which is only open to special customers." Zhuo Lingling said in one breath, and in the end, her voice was a little lower with a hint of mystery.
Hearing this, Yuan Ming also turned around from his thoughts.
"In that case, it won't be in vain my trust in your building." Yuan Ming said in a flat tone.
Zhuo Lingling was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly took out a white jade token and presented it with both hands.
Yuan Ming took it and looked at it, and found that one side of it was engraved with a relief carving of the appearance of a simple Taoist temple, and the other side was engraved with the words "Changxian Order", the material is not very special, but it is exquisite enough.
Subsequently, he also paid off the money of "Jinhuadan", and under the congratulations of Zhuo Lingling, he left Changxian Tower.
After buying the pill, there were only three hundred spirit stones left on his body, not too much, not too little, Yuan Ming planned to walk around the city to see if he could encounter any interesting objects.
The most important thing is that he also wants to see if he can help Sunset Shadow buy another magic weapon similar to gilt yarn.
Along the way in the east and west cities, the shops he saw did not change much, but the stalls of those small merchants and hawkers had changed a lot, and the Xuanhua real person he met before selling green Xuanxiang was no longer in his original location, and he didn't know where Yunyou went.
I walked around from noon to evening, the sky was getting dark, and Yuan Ming didn't come across anything he wanted to buy.
For a while, Yuan Ming came to a well-known "Shanzhen Building" in the south of the city.
This is the most prestigious restaurant in the entire Black Rock City, just because the ingredients it uses are mostly some elixirs and beasts, and through the chef's special cooking, it often has a slight tonic effect on the monks.
But what it is really praised for is naturally the beautiful taste, after all, if you really want to tonify, it is more reliable to take pills.
Walking into the building, a guy immediately greeted him, led Yuan Ming to the second floor, and prepared to take him to the private room.
But as soon as Yuan Ming walked up the stairs, he saw a middle-aged man with a majestic face but a gentle expression.
"Friends of the Phantom Time." Yuan Ming was surprised.
The person on the other side was also extremely surprised the moment he saw Yuan Ming, and said, "Hagong Daoyou?"
Phantom Time also recognized Yuan Ming at a glance.
"You two know each other?" The guy hesitated.
"Go and get the altar I have stored here, get it, and you won't have to worry about anything else." After Phantom Shi gave an order, he led Yuan Ming back to his private room.
There was another person in the private room, and it was White Night.
was different from the majestic appearance when he first saw him before, at this time he frowned, and there was obviously a sad look on his face.
Seeing that Phantom Time had led Yuan Ming back, a look of surprise also appeared on his face.
After some pleasantries, when the man brought the wine and the food on the table was ready, Phantom got up and closed the door, took out a "soundproof note", and pasted it on the door.
As a layer of light lit up on the talisman, the entire room was immediately enveloped in a layer of faint white light that expanded.
"Hagong Daoist, when you come to Black Rock City today, don't you have to take on some mission?" Phantom time side
beckoning Yuan Ming to eat vegetables, he took the initiative to speak and asked.
"Just to buy some elixirs." Yuan Ming shook his head and said with a smile.
Hearing this, Bai Ye and Phantom Time glanced at each other, and then looked at the changes in the aura on Yuan Ming's body, and couldn't help but show a surprised look at the same time.
Phantom Shi's expression was complicated for a while, and he spoke, "Daoist Hagong, it's only been less than three months since we separated, how can there be such a change in your cultivation aura?"
Yuan Ming was stunned when he heard this, the relationship between them was not very close, and under normal circumstances, he should not ask about this matter so bluntly.
But when he thought about it, he understood.
Phantom Time and White Night thought that when they participated in the Snake King Valley mission more than two months ago, Yuan Ming deliberately concealed his true cultivation, and what was exposed today was his true realm.
"You don't have to guess, after the battle from the Snake King Valley, both my experience and cultivation feelings have changed a lot, and I will retreat immediately after I go back, otherwise I won't have made such great progress." Yuan Ming said.
Hearing this, the two of them also felt that if Yuan Ming really had the ability to hide his cultivation, he wouldn't use it this time.
"With such a speed of cultivation, Hagong Daoist is really talented, and we will be ashamed of it." I couldn't help but sigh when I was illusory.
"Do you remember the last time we proposed it?" Bai Ye asked.
"What's the offer?" Yuan Ming was really not impressed.
"I invite you to join our White Night Alliance and become our second Deputy Alliance." Bai Ye said.
When he heard this, he was a little surprised, and glanced at Bai Ye.
Yuan Ming said in his heart, there are some people who invite him to join, but when did he say that he wanted him to be the deputy leader of the alliance?
"The alliance leader's kindness is well understood. But I think both of you should be able to see that I have a master's heritage, so I can't join your Dispersion Alliance anymore." Yuan Ming expressed a little regret and said.
"So...... It's a pity." White Night sighed.
"What is the situation of the White Nights Scattered Alliance now?" Yuan Ming saw him talk, so he asked.
Bai Ye and Phantom Time showed indescribable expressions at the same time, but neither of them spoke first.
"The two alliance leaders are both foundation building period monks, and they are also fair and kind in doing business, so they don't have to worry about the future when they act like this." Yuan Ming spoke of relief.
"In the last battle in the Snake King Valley, the White Night Dispersal Alliance brought all the backbone members, but as a result, they suffered heavy losses, causing them to all lose there, and now the remaining personnel are seriously lacking in combat strength, and the situation is indeed not good." Phantom sighed.
"If it weren't for the Hagong Daoist Fellow who was willing to exchange the snake beads for you, I'm afraid it would be difficult for us to deliver the mission to White Dragon Island. If this mission fails, the credibility that has been accumulated will be lost." White Night answered.
"It's just that their young master came in person, and it turned out to be ......" Phantom Shi said halfway through his words and didn't say any more.
What he didn't say was naturally the killing of the young master of White Dragon Island.
Bai Ye didn't have any taboos, and said, "Because the young master was killed, White Dragon Island is also very taboo about this mission, although we completed the mission and got the due reward, we still have a bad relationship with White Dragon Island."
When Yuan Ming heard this, he knew how difficult the situation of the White Night Dispersal Alliance was.
The loss of itself is huge, the lack of talents in the alliance, and the offending of customers, to a certain extent, the reputation is damaged, which is a great gain outweighs the loss.
It's no wonder that they are willing to give Yuan Ming the position of deputy alliance leader of the Qi Refining Period Cultivator, so as to win them over.
"That's it, let's not talk about these troubles, today our two brothers just want to come to drink away their sorrows and put aside these disturbing things for the time being." Phantom Shi smiled, opened the altar of "Hundred Days of Drunkenness", and poured a cup for Yuan Ming.
The intoxicating aroma suddenly overflowed, making Yuan Ming's eyes light up.
"It's a very fragrant wine with a mellow flavour, and it's a rare wine." Yuan Ming took a sip and couldn't help but admire.
"Haha, Hagong Dao friends know the goods, this is a good wine that has been cellared for more than 100 years, this 'Shanzhen Building, the stock is limited, and it is not usually sold." Phantom Shi smiled.
"Then I'll have to try it." Yuan Ming hurriedly took another big sip.
The three of them pushed the glass and changed the glass, and the wine became stronger.
"Big brother, I think we just don't hold on, since there is a solicitation over there, let's go, anyway, the treatment is quite generous, no loss." Phantom Time gradually let go, and said bluntly.
"Dawn has always only needed strong people, and the only ones who are clearly recruited are you and me, and we still have those members of the Qi Refining Period, and they will most likely not want it." Bai Ye was still calm and shook his head.
"Talk, you can talk about everything. What's wrong with the Qi Refining Period, isn't Hagong Daoist also in the Qi Refining Period, not to mention anything else, I don't dare to despise him. It's good that Dawn is demanding, but this time it's clear that they're going to expand on a large scale, and I think it's an opportunity." Phantom Shi spread his hands and said.
Hearing this, Bai Ye fell into deep thought.
"Dawn is ......," Yuan Mingchi asked.
"It's also a scattered alliance, but it's much stronger than our White Night. They have always been mysterious and unfathomable, and they have never missed a mission so far." Phantom Time explained.
Hearing this, Yuan Ming nodded thoughtfully.
"The point is that no one knows about this organization, or even the number and composition of their members, and only through some gossip, I know that they have a maverick style of doing things, which is very different from others." Bai Ye also spoke.
"Oh, how maverick?" Yuan Ming wondered.
"It is said that they also took on the task of hunting down and killing the vicious monks of the late stage of foundation building, and also took on the task of helping people find their missing relatives, and they also carried out a horrific murder case in the central part of southern Xinjiang...... In short, no one can know how they choose to take on the task." Phantom Time replied.
When Yuan Ming heard this, he came to a consensus in his mind, just like Bai Ye: "Dawn is an organization that is mysterious, powerful, and has a unique style of doing things, and it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil."
