Chapter 253: Settlement
The document that Yuan Ming took out was the contract that was scavenged from Xu Changqing, which clearly stated that the Guangli Scattered Alliance needed to kill himself within the agreed time limit, and now, the time limit has passed, and he has made such a big move in the capital of the Great Jin Dynasty, and everyone knows that he is not only alive, but also has become a monk in the foundation building period.
Now, he pretends to be a disciple of Changchunguan who comes to ask for debts, and no one can find anything wrong with him.
What's more, even if they wanted to find Xu Changqing, who held the documents, to verify the authenticity, unless they could find the body in Yuan Ming's storage bag, who could say that he was not a disciple of Changchun Guan now?
After a while, Zhang Luhe walked back with the paperwork, and the smile on his face seemed to be much more sincere.
"I have already confirmed with the alliance leader that the documents under my feet are true, but why didn't Your Excellency come in person?"
"He said that he doesn't want to deal with you anymore." Yuan Ming's tone was flat.
Zhang Luhe's hand holding the paperwork clenched instantly, but after a while, he put it down again and took out a storage bag from his waist.
"Hehe, this time it is indeed our mistake, according to the contract, this is the compensation of 1,500 spirit stones, in addition, there is a deposit of 500 spirit stones in advance, please smile."
"That's pretty much it." Yuan Ming nodded calmly, accepted the storage bag, said no more, turned around and walked out of the Guangli Scattered Alliance station.
After Yuan Ming left, the figure in the wing room flickered, and a man in a white robe appeared in the room, looked at the direction Yuan Ming left, and asked, "Brother Zhang, this business has lost a lot." ”
"Alas, there is always a time to miss, I didn't expect that Yuan Ming to escape the pursuit, and after going back, he killed the jade pot Lao Dao at the succession ceremony, fortunately we didn't meet him, if we really met, my colleagues in southern Xinjiang are also in danger, how many times have I said that I must prepare intelligence, they are blinded by the spirit stone." Zhang Luhe sighed.
A street away, Yuan Ming thought that there were two thousand more spirit stones in his storage bag, and he couldn't hold back the smile on his face anymore. With this spirit stone, he can naturally exchange it for a lot of pills for cultivation, as well as materials for making spiritual incense.
Just in his heart, he was thinking about his footsteps.
Yuan Ming looked sideways, but saw a building with a unique shape not far away, the lower part of which was still a normal pavilion, but the shape of the upper part was like a huge fine iron long sword, which was inserted straight into the pavilion, which looked quite imposing.
On the plaque in front of the gate, there are only three big characters - Scattered Order.
Yuan Ming was a little curious in his heart, and when he entered the door, he saw that the door in front of the house was a vertical square tablet, and the top of the ashlar was written with the words "Evil Cultivation List", and below it was written dozens of names in blood-red Dan ink, and behind the name was marked Xiuwei, and behind Xiuwei, there was a number, which seemed to represent the number of spirit stones rewarded.
Yuan Ming looked up, and at the top of the monument was a monk called "Youquan Old Demon", who had the peak cultivation of the Jiedan, and the reward at the end was as high as 500,000 spirit stones.
At the bottom of the ashlar is a foundation building monk named "Pu Zhengqing", whose specific strength is unknown, but he is also a soul cultivator, and the bounty is actually 100,000 spirit stones, but there are two small words at the end - captured alive.
After reading the list, Yuan Ming couldn't help but be amazed, and he also knew how much he was worth.
It seems that in the Great Jin Immortal Cultivation Realm, when the cultivation resources are relatively abundant, the number and strength of scattered cultivation are not comparable to the small places in the Southern Xinjiang and Northern Regions, and there is such a list, but the evil cultivation in it is difficult to say whether it is really full of evil.
Look at the names on this list, behind them are really powerful monks, and they can't think of anything they can deal with at the moment.
Originally, he was still complacent, thinking that he could be invincible at the same level with soul cultivation methods, but now it seems too optimistic.
There is a sky outside the sky, there are people outside the world, and his own cultivation strength has just escaped from the bottom level in the immortal cultivation world, but he is not the protagonist in the book he wrote, and he can turn evil into good fortune every time.
You still have to keep a low profile, and be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years.
This time, he duel with the Jade Pot Daoist in the Imperial City, and it was cool to take revenge at that time, and now he has to hide.
However, this also made Yuan Ming's heart sprout a strong desire for the first time, he must continue to improve his cultivation and enhance his strength in order to have the right to speak.
The reason for this is that I don't have the ability to protect my family, and I can't even protect myself.
He collected his thoughts, glanced at the list again, and some doubts rose in his heart, since this Scattered Cultivation Society was set up in the face of the vast number of Scattered Cultivators and Scattered Alliances, it shouldn't only be these rather advanced lists, right?
He went to the nearby counter and asked, only to learn that this boulder only recorded monks with a bounty of more than 100,000 on the list of evil cultivators, and others below 100,000 needed to be inquired separately.
In addition, in addition to the Evil Cultivation List, there is also a special task list, on which anyone can post tasks or bounties as long as they pay a deposit.
And if there is a casual cultivator who wants to take the task, he also needs to pay a certain deposit, and at the same time, he must verify his strength, and in principle, he cannot take a task that is too different from his strength.
Yuan Ming didn't want to take the task for the time being, so he just borrowed a name and quickly swept the evil cultivation list, but in fact, he confirmed that there was no name on it, so he didn't stay any longer.
He originally planned to go to Aoki Building to buy some four spirit pills again, but he didn't have this idea at the moment, after all, as long as there were enough spirit stones, the pills could be bought at any time, and he was not in a hurry, but there was something that needed to be confirmed at the moment.
The blood egg that Sunset Shadow gave him before, on the way back to Dajin, he tried a lot of methods, but he couldn't hatch the blood egg, and even the method of dripping essence blood every day taught by Sunset Shadow had tried, not only that, but he couldn't feel the aura fluctuations in the egg.
This made him wonder if it was possible for the blood egg to hatch, or at least if there was any way to confirm that it was still alive.
After thinking about it, he still had to ask someone who was proficient in this way about the situation.
Now that he came to Leizhou, he thought that the one-armed old man Gu Qiuming's sect happened to specialize in this.
Yuan Ming took out the map, quickly found the location of Zhenling Pavilion, and walked over quickly.
As soon as he entered, he was greeted by a steward in a flaming red robe.
Without waiting for him to ask, Yuan Ming said, "May I ask Daoyou, is there a monk named Gu Qiuming here?" ”
"I'm sorry, Deacon Gu returned to the sect not long ago, and he is not here now, but if you need to, I can summon him on your behalf." The steward said politely.
"It's okay, you just said that there is an old man from Black Rock City who is visiting, and he knows who it is." Yuan Ming heard this and said.
The steward immediately responded, and then publicized all kinds of rare birds and beasts in the store to Yuan Ming.
Many of them are common in southern Xinjiang, the good ones can't afford them, and the bad ones are not as good as their own, but the price is more than three times that of southern Xinjiang, Yuan Ming is not interested in this, and he casually coped with a few words and turned away.
……
At night, Yuan Ming stood by the window of the inn room and looked out.
This is the second floor with a wide view.
The lights in Xiaohu City are bright at the moment, and under the background of the night, it is extremely gorgeous.
After a long time, Yuan Ming turned around and walked back to the bed, took out the white jade ring and looked at it for a long time, and then put it into the storage ring, his eyes gradually becoming firm.
He finally made a decision in his heart: not to give birth to the Ye Sect, but to live and cultivate in this small lake city for a long time.
One is afraid of bringing trouble to his grandmother's sect, because of his own reasons, his mother's family will be implicated, which will make his mother worry again. Second, Yuan Ming is really tired of all kinds of cumbersome rules of the sect, he needs to be notified wherever he goes, and he also needs approval to leave the sect, this Xiaohu Chengfang City is the second largest Fang City in the Great Jin Dynasty, and the aura is also strong, and he has everything. Sanzefang City has many scattered repairs, and it is hidden in the city.
As for the pills and other resources needed for cultivation, he planned to find a way by himself, and asked himself that even if he arrived at the Shengye Sect, although he was a foundation building period cultivator, after all, he was an outsider, and he might not be able to get preferential treatment if he was sent to the fence.
Thinking of this, Yuan Ming became more and more determined in this choice.
The next morning, he came to a huge palace building near the lake in the city, which was quite bustling with people.
There were two monks standing at the entrance of the main hall, ignoring the people who came in and out.
Yuan Ming entered one of the side rooms, which was simply furnished, with only a long gray and white stone table, and four or five white-clothed monks sitting behind it.
Many monks gathered in the hall, sitting at the stone table, and talking in low voices with the white-clothed monks, some of them were elated, and some of them were sad.
This is where the houses are rented in the city of Little Lake City.
"Is this Taoist friend going to rent or buy a house, and has he chosen a good location?"
The white-clothed monk asked with a smile, not despised Yuan Ming's Qi refining period cultivation revealed at the moment.
"Rental, outer area, but along the street, cheaper." Yuan Ming didn't want to inquire about the price of buying a house, thinking that he couldn't afford it, so he said.
"There are quite a lot of idle houses in the cheap peripheral areas, there are eighty-nine in the east of the city, and one hundred and twenty-one in the west of the city, this is the price list, you can take a look at it first." The white-clothed monk took out two jade slips and handed them over.
Yuan Ming picked up the jade slip, took a look at it, frowned slightly and hesitated, the rent of the houses in Xiaohu City is really not cheap, even if it is a house in the outer area, it costs one or two hundred spirit stones a year.
"The aura of this city is strong, there are Yuanying monks in charge, safety is assured, Xiaohu City is the second fang city of Dajin, even if it is a corner of the city, it is convenient to live, as for where to live, it depends on the needs of Taoist friends." The Whitefriars spoke endlessly about the benefits of living in Little Lake.
