Li Yuanjiao has been practicing on Qingdu Mountain for more than half a year, although his cultivation has been refined, he is still far from breaking through the middle stage of foundation building, after all, building a foundation is different from practicing qi, and it is common to break through once in a few decades.

"My father still didn't set off, and he always had to be busy before he was willing to leave."

Li Xuanxuan tossed for more than half a year, but he still didn't set off for a long time, and Li Xijun didn't urge him, just waited patiently, after all, collecting cold water is not a big deal, I'm afraid that it will be urgent.

Li Qinghong is in retreat, there is no one to guard at home, Li Yuanjiao is inconvenient and too fascinated, he comes out to practice spells and kendo from time to time, and is reading the sword code, Li Wushao fell in the wind, dressed in a black robe.

Li Wushao got the [Qingyun Elk Fruit] with great gratitude, swallowed and cultivated, and two black shadows had secretly appeared under the black robe, and it was estimated that in another year and a half, the two hooks would grow.

Li Wuzi said:

"The head of the family, two people fell in front of the mountain, saying that the Han family on East Sulfur Island came to visit."

Li Yuanjiao was a little surprised, and asked rhetorically:

"The Han family of East Sulfur?"

Li Yuanjiao of the Han family has also heard that the foundation building monster used in his own sacrifice was captured in the area of East Sulfur Island, and Li Yuanjiao stayed in that area and had some understanding.

The Dongsu Han family is an old family, similar to the Yuan family, there are many monks who have built a foundation, and they have laid a great foundation in the East China Sea.

There are two people standing in the courtyard, both of them are building the foundation and cultivating, the leader is a young monk, with a mediocre appearance and simple clothes, followed by a man, tall and tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist.

Li Xijun was accompanying him in the courtyard, chatting with the young man lively, both of them were smiling and groaning, and they were very harmonious.

Seeing that man, Li Yuanjiao already understood a little in his heart, arched his hand forward, and said:

"Qingdu Li Yuanjiao, I've seen a fellow Daoist!"

The young man sighed, his gaze quickly crossed his face, and replied:

"Disrespectful, in the lower east sulfur Han Shizhen, I am the young head of the Han family, and I have seen Taoist friends!"

Li Yuanjiao nodded in return and led the two of them to take a seat, Han Shizhen smiled generously and said politely:

"A few days ago, my uncle was seriously ill, and my brother came to the nobles to ask for medicine, which offended the nobles.

Talking about the big man, he explained:

"My brother has always been short-tempered, and at that time, his eyebrows were burning, and he was at a critical juncture of life and death, so he spoke a little offensive, and I hope to forgive my sins......"

It turned out that this big man was the foundation building monk who came to ask for medicine a few years ago, he was rude and arrogant at that time, and was slightly manipulated by Li Qinghong, and now he lowered his head and accused him again and again.

Both parties are families, so naturally they will not be angry about this little thing, Li Yuanjiao excused himself and said:

"There is no matter, Taoist friends are eager to ask for medicine, I can understand it, don't worry."

Han Shizhen handed over a jade box, Li Yuanjiao asked Li Xijun to accept it, and asked:

"I don't know the noble elders..."

"Oh."

Han Shizhen shook his head slightly and replied:

"He couldn't survive it, although he took many life-sustaining medicinal materials, the injuries he suffered were too serious, and after all, the immortal base collapsed and turned into a spiritual transformation."

Li Yuanjiao saw that the two of them were not dressed in white, he thought that he had been rescued, he congratulated him twice, and he didn't want to ask the sore spot, it should be that the East China Sea does not have the custom of wearing linen and filial piety, so he can only confess:

"Mourning..."

"Don't worry."

Han Shizhen smiled and said softly:

"Although Uncle Clan died, he brought back treasures for my family, which is much more useful than a foundation monk, which is a good thing!"

Li Yuanjiao's uncle and nephew froze slightly, while Han Shizhen glanced at the faces of the two, and then reacted, for fear that the two of them would have a bad feeling, and explained:

"My customs in the East China Sea are like this, and they are a little different from those in the sea... Don't blame it yet. ”

Li Yuanjiao only nodded, it was naturally not worth Han Shizhen's trip to the sea for a mere apology, just waiting for him to follow.

Sure enough, after a short courtesy greeting, Han Shizhen said straight:

"How much does the aristocratic [Wanling Flower] produce every year?"

'It turned out to be for [Wanling Flower]! ’

Li Yuanjiao suddenly understood, the initiative was in his own hands, relaxed slightly, and said in a deep voice:

"Every three years, fourteen flowers."

"Good!"

Han Shizhen nodded happily and said:

"How much does Daoyou earn from selling this flower in the sea?"

When Li Yuanjiao heard this, he had already guessed his thoughts, and replied:

"The price has risen over the years, and there are about two spirit stones for one."

"Harm!"

Han Shizhen just picked up the jade cup, and when he heard this, he put it down heavily, the tea in it did not move at all, and said regretfully:

"Fellow Daoist! That's a bargain! It's a thing to forget about your life! ”

He advised:

"You sing and dance in the sea, there has never been any major calamity, and the following casual cultivation is just that, you and my family know very well in our hearts, the so-called demon disaster is just a farce!"

"It's nothing more than my sect in the East China Sea that has raised the price of blood qi, and the three sects and seven sects are just a plan to draw salaries! How can this Wanling flower be sold in such a bright and peaceful place? ”

'Bright and Peaceful ......'

The corners of Li Yuanjiao's mouth twitched when he heard this, but he was attracted by his words, and said thoughtfully:

"The bottom of the kettle..."

"Exactly!"

Han Shizhen sighed:

"In recent years, the overseas demon clan has become more and more urgent, causing the price of blood and resentment and soul essence water to skyrocket, and the East China Sea monks themselves are not enough, where can they still be imported into the sea?"

"So the three sects and seven sects relaxed the control of the estuary, let the overseas casual cultivation enter, and then directed and acted in the demon disaster, using their own high-grade demon cultivation to kill mortals and loose cultivation, which can not only eradicate dissidents, dominate the situation, but also have enough to eat."

Han Shizhen talked eloquently, silently paying attention to the change in Li Yuanjiao's expression, Li Yuanjiao only sipped tea and nodded cooperatively.

"In this way, the sect eats meat, the family drinks soup, and it can also occupy morality - I heard that this thing is very useful in your sea."

Han Shizhen teased and said with a smile:

"Over the years, the nobles have also eaten a lot of demon cultivation, right? I heard that all of them are rich in flowing oil, and even the fetal breath has more than a dozen spirit stones, and I am very envious! ”

Li Yuanjiao smiled heavily and replied:

"It's to kill some demon cultivators."

Han Shizhen looked sideways at Li Xijun, but saw that the young man was also nodding with a smile, which was more natural than Li Yuanjiao, and finally affirmed it in his heart:

The Li family really has some background in Qingchi, Li Yuanjiao can't see it when he is deep in thought, but Li Xijun is too young, obviously he already knew. ’

The smile became more and more fervent, and he continued:

"So let's just say below, the spiritual opportunities in this sea are all in those few immortal mountains, and the rest of the land has many mortals and few monks, how many foundations can be built? How many people are dying? This [Wanling Flower] should be sold in the East China Sea! ”

Li Yuanjiao nodded, and followed his words and said kindly:

"I don't know what you're going to do?"

"Refreshing!"

Han Shizhen smiled:

"One of ten spirit stones, I'll be seven and you'll be three!"

Li Yuanjiao's uncle and nephew were all stunned, and they were shocked by his move to sell five times the high price, Li Yuanjiao was silent, and Li Xijun immediately said:

"The seniors are too greedy!"

Han Shizhen shook his head and said with confidence:

"The nobles can also try to sell it themselves, I'm afraid that the news will be released today, and tomorrow the stronghold will be destroyed! Donghai doesn't have any reason with you! ”

"My family helped sell this spiritual object, but I took all the covetous eyes from before and after to my own family! If it weren't for the fact that my family still has some weight in the East China Sea, I would definitely not dare to do it! ”

Li Yuanjiao had been to the East China Sea, and he had a plan in his heart, so he replied immediately:

"Fifty-fifty."

"Six or four at most."

Han Shizhen is very sure:

"Ming people don't say dark words, I don't like to be entangled, I can say as much as I want."

"Okay, but there's a little bit of a request below."

Li Yuanjiao nodded, while Han Shizhen looked at him and said:

"Fellow Daoists, please speak."

Li Yuanjiao's voice was smooth:

"What I want is forty percent of the income from the sale of [Wanling Flower], Daoist friends don't want to buy these four spirit stones from me, no matter how strange they are, they can sell them at a high price."

Han Shizhen was stunned, as if he had guessed his mind, and laughed to hide his embarrassment, and said:

"Okay, good, Daoist friends are not like monks in the sea, this mind is like my East China Sea people!"

The two discussed for a while and set the volume of goods for next year, and Li Yuanjiao instructed:

"Remember that this flower should not be heard crying, and when it is heard, it should be thanked, and it should not be touched by the genus of gold and jade..."

Han Shizhen nodded to indicate that he had written it down, and said a few kind words, very abruptly:

"I don't know if my sister Li Qinghong has ever been married?"

Li Yuanjiao was also accustomed to his style, and said bluntly:

"My little sister's exercises are special, and I can't do things like getting married, I hope I'll forgive me."

"It's abrupt."

Han Shizhen's face did not change, nodding slightly, Li Yuanjiao took a sip of tea and asked in a low voice:

"Han Daoyou... I don't know if there is a family in the East China Sea to settle down and open up a separate family? ”

When Li Yuanjiao went to the East China Sea, he also specially searched for it, but after all, these families are under the three sects and seven sects, and they can't gain a foothold overseas on the surface, and I'm afraid they don't use their own names.

Now that Han Shizhen, the head snake is here, Li Yuanjiao naturally wants to ask carefully.

"Naturally."

Han Shizhen shrugged and replied:

"There aren't many, most of them are Purple Mansion Immortals, and even if there are enough foundation building monks in ordinary families, they rarely have a foothold overseas... There is only one place in the market. ”

"The East China Sea is not as good as the sea, the island is not able to grow spiritual rice, the danger is lurking, the Fang City has been set by the three sects and seven gates, and it is not allowed to open, once the power is established overseas, it will not be affiliated with the three sects and seven gates, who can let you come back? There are a number of immortal bases, and the three sects and seven sects are not stupid. ”

Han Shizhen looked at his face and shook his head slightly:

"Although there are permitted operations in this, and the three sects and seven doors are not strictly managed, but in the end, the benefits are not large, and many families have a way out overseas, but there are few who really have to operate with heart."

Li Yuanjiao nodded secretly and inquired about some news, Han Shizhen answered one by one, and left with someone to say goodbye.

Li Yuanjiao sent all the way out of the realm and returned to the mountain, only then did he have a smile, Li Xijun congratulated and said:

"There are more than ten spirit stones now, and there can be a total of twenty spirit stones in the family every year, so it's much easier to do anything."

"Not bad!"

Li Yuanjiao nodded secretly and said in a deep voice:

"This man talks about the Demonic Calamity... It's also a bit interesting, it should be the views of overseas families on the demon disaster, you can refer to one or two. ”

"Exactly."

Li Xijun opened his mouth and said:

"Although the Purple Mansion in the sea is colluded, it is not completely concentric, and the matter of the demon disaster is led by Qingchi, and all parties wrestle, and there may be other considerations."

The uncle and nephew talked for a while, and Li Xijun said:

"Uncle's talisman is finished."

Li Yuanjiao commanded:

"Uncle's business, I have to trouble you to go with him, you break through the retreat, and then set off."

"Yes, don't worry."

Li Xijun answered, turned around and went to retreat in the Qingdu Cave Mansion.

Li Yuanjiao was sipping tea alone in the courtyard, thinking in his heart:

"Qinghong will also be out of customs... Kong Heng is building a foundation and cultivating it, and the two of them have only been coming and going for half a year, so there shouldn't be an accident..."

He sat on the throne for a few breaths, put the jade cup lightly, and finally made up his mind:

"But for half a year, I still drove the Xuanwen Spiritual Mist to follow, there is no outstanding person in the Chengming generation, Xijun is a person who connects the upper and lower generations, and nothing will happen."

At the moment, he summoned Li Wushao over, explained a few words to him, helped to take care of the house, and took out the sword dictionary to read it, just waiting for Li Xijun and a few people to set off.

……

Out of Qingdu Mountain, Han Shizhen and the two walked north, and the man behind him spoke:

"Childe, the Li family seems to be interested in gaining a foothold overseas."

Han Shizhen nodded and whispered:

"It's not unusual, his family has a background in Qingchi, he can easily enter and exit the East China Sea, and it is normal to find a way out, how many forces in the East China Sea are retreated from the sea?"

"What's more, Jianmen and Chunyi, Chijiao Island are fighting for the [Qingsongguan Ruins], and they are in a mess, it is a good time to enter the sea, if I am Li Yuanjiao, I will also think of this idea."

The big man nodded in agreement, and said with some concern:

"I just hope that his family can get acquainted with each other, and don't settle around my house stupidly... The two families have formed some friendship at this time, but don't hurt their feelings because of this. ”

Han Shizhen shook his head and said very decisively:

"Definitely not... I saw that Li Yuanjiao was a cautious and low-key person, and if his family wanted to settle down, he would also find a desert island that was inaccessible, and he would rather be bitter and tired than exposed to others. ”

The man sighed and said with emotion:

"In this poor place, I don't know when my family will be able to gain a foothold in the sea."

"Wait for the Ancestral Purple Mansion!"

Han Shizhen replied and said with a smile:

"It's not that there is no opportunity, the sea is peaceful and rich, there are three sects to maintain order, who is not greedy? Aren't Tang Yuanwu and Chang Xiaozi all from overseas? At that time, the Seven Gates can add an East Sulfur Gate, and the worst can also be more than the Han family of the Immortal Clan. ”

"As for the Li family."

Han Shizhen said:

"After all, it is a land snake, it is good to make friends, if my family has a chance to go ashore, I also need the help of these families, if the ancestor fails to break through, I can also ask a few people to build a foundation and defend the island."

"Yes!"

The man responded, very respectfully, and said in a low voice:

"Childe is thoughtful."

Han Shizhen didn't pay attention to his sycophancy, only hesitated:

"The matter of [Qingsongguan Ruins] is getting bigger and bigger, I just hope that it will not attract three sects to interfere... It's best to let the Sword Gate and the three Purple Mansion forces of Junyi and Chijiao continue to be entangled like this, and I will be more comfortable in my future. ”
