Chapter 420: A room is hard to find
Seeing these disciples of the Gongyun Sect, Li Xiuping suddenly had an idea in his heart, since the other party wanted to use the huge demon beasts to stop them from going south, then why didn't he use the same method to deal with those demon beasts.
The overall strength of those demon beasts is not very strong, but it is better than a large number, plus the advantage of relying on the river, so even they are a little troublesome to deal with.
Since this is the case, he can completely use the cultivators in the vicinity to use these forces to contain those demon beasts, and when the time comes, it will be difficult to stop them from going south with only those demon beasts, and the people behind them will have to show up at that time.
As long as the person behind the back appears, as long as the person behind the person is solved, those demon beasts will no longer be a threat, and the trouble encountered this time will naturally be solved.
It's just that this is a bit unkind, but these cultivators are not a good thing, since they like to use the slogan of eliminating demons and defending the way to gain fame, then I will help them in general, let them eliminate demons and defend the way at a time.
Li Xiuping replied with a smile: "In the foundation building period, those two children have no cultivation, but they can be regarded as cultivators, as for these seniors, they are all cultivators in the Jindan period." ”
The man glanced at the crowd and frowned slightly.
There are a total of six people, three of them are in the Jindan period, and only one is in the foundation building period, so doesn't it mean that this group of people has no money to earn at all?
According to the rules set by their own Kongyun Sect, as long as they reach the strength of the Jindan period, they will not take a penny, and even an ordinary person can be brought in the Jindan period, and the monks in the foundation building period will receive half.
Now that there are six people on the other side, half of the Jindan period monks, then the remaining three no matter what they cultivate, naturally they don't have to pay money, although they are depressed, but the rules are the rules, and those of them who are disciples naturally dare not disobey.
The man smiled and said, "The Jindan Stage Cultivator needs to be confirmed by the elders of this sect, if it is confirmed that there is no problem, there are already three Jindan Stage powerhouses in a few people, then according to the rules of my Gongyun Sect, there is no need to pay money." ”
Li Xiuping was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "The rules of your Gongyun Sect are quite interesting. But there is no need to confirm it, there are six of us in total, a total of thirty spirit stones, you can count them. ”
As he spoke, he directly took out thirty spirit stones.
The disciple of the Kongyun Sect couldn't help frowning, there was such a good thing in this world? You don't have to pay the money, the other party still insists on stuffing money for himself, you know, he can put this money into his pocket.
Thirty spirit stones are enough to buy a decent spirit treasure, but it is really not a small amount. It's just that there must be demons when they use abnormalities, either these people have not reached the Jindan stage at all, and they are afraid of verification, or they have some purpose, if something goes wrong because of this, it will inevitably affect the reputation of the Gongyun Sect, and he can't afford it.
Although thirty spirit stones were a lot, it was not enough for him to take risks, so he shook his head and said: "The rules of the sect are like this, don't be embarrassed by the prince." ”
Li Xiuping smiled and said, "Then you should treat us as if we don't have Jindan stage cultivation." ”
The man still shook his head and said: "When crossing the river, it is necessary to distribute the strength of the people who cross the river, and this is also to ensure that everyone can cross the river safely, so if you really want to cross the river with my Kongyun Sect, please follow the rules of my Kongyun Sect." ”
Li Xiuping frowned and said, "You Gongyun Sect really have too many rules, lead the way." ”
The man smiled and said, "Thank you for your understanding, please come here." ”
Saying that he was leading the way in front, Li Xiuping and others followed behind.
Regarding Li Xiuping's actions, Chu Yan and Yang Erni were really a little incomprehensible, their master was in the foundation building period, but it was the most powerful foundation building period in the world, and the fire spirit real person was indeed in the Jindan period, there was nothing wrong with this, but the blue water unicorn was in the transformation period, as for the Qingying monk, he was even more powerful in the integration period, why did the master say that their realm was so low?
And the two of them are not ordinary people, they are also cultivating during the Qi cultivation period, I heard the man talk about their rules before, and I thought that I could finally give the master some money, who would have thought that the master had so much money that there was nowhere to spend it, and others didn't want it, and they insisted on giving it to others.
However, Master has a reason for doing this, and of course they won't say anything more, so as not to spoil Master's plan.
Under the man's leadership, everyone came to a courtyard, and at this moment there was a flow of people coming in and out.
On the steps in the middle of the courtyard, there was a table, and at this moment there was an old man with white hair sitting behind the table, registering something, and in front of the table, there was a long queue of countless people.
After the man brought Li Xiuping and the others here, he said with a smile: "Please wait for a while, and then go and inform the elders." ”
Li Xiuping nodded.
After the man left, Li Xiuping said: "Suppress the realm for a while, don't let the other party see the clues." ”
Everyone nodded at the same time.
The Qing Ming Monk smiled and asked, "Are you trying to use these forces to deal with those demon beasts?" ”
Li Xiuping nodded and said: "The strength of those demon beasts is not strong, the trouble is that there are many of them, and they also rely on the convenience of the river, if you can use these forces to deal with those demon beasts, then the people behind them will inevitably appear, at least not as passive as now." ”
He glanced left and right, and then said: "When I entered the city, I took a look, there is not only one force in the Kongyun Sect here, it should be the union of many forces, so it can be seen that the demon trouble in the river has indeed existed for a long time, and these forces have no way to take these demon beasts, and we can easily solve the things that have plagued these forces for many years, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone." ”
The Qing Ming monk nodded, "This is indeed a solution. ”
As he spoke, an old man walked out of the main hall, and after glancing left and right, he walked straight towards Li Xiuping and the others, and saluted: "Let a few Taoist friends wait for a long time." ”
Li Xiuping waved his hand and said, "It didn't take long." ”
The old man asked, "I heard that how many of you want to verify your cultivation?" ”
Li Xiuping nodded and said: "I want to go south, but I heard that there is a demon in the river, and I just heard that there is a sect here to escort it, so I came to take a look, it is really because I have two children, I am worried about any accidents, and it is good to have someone else take care of it." ”
The old man glanced at Chu Yan and Yang Erni, nodded and said, "That's true, a few Daoists don't know, this demon beast in the river is really fierce, and it has become more and more rampant over the years, even if we and other sects join forces, there is nothing we can do about it." ”
Li Xiuping frowned and said, "Is it really that serious?" ”
The old man nodded, his expression a little bitter.
He continued: "A few fellow Daoists, please." ”
As he spoke, he led everyone into the main hall, and after everyone sat down, someone immediately brought tea, and the old man said: "Please also ask a few people to release their breath, and after the old man determines your specific cultivation, he can make arrangements." ”
Li Xiuping nodded and took the lead in releasing his breath.
There is nothing to say about the cultivation of the foundation building period, the breath of the foundation building period.
After Li Xiuping released his breath, there was a person next to him who registered, and then the fire spirit real person also released his breath, the same is the Jindan period of cultivation, and there is nothing wrong with the Jindan period of cultivation, and the Jindan period of breath.
As a strong person in the merger period, it is naturally not difficult for the Qingying Monk to hide his strength in front of these people, he wants these people to see what realm he is, that is, what realm he is, and finally the blue water qilin, and the other party has no doubts.
In fact, the three Jindan period monks are already not weak existences, such people can cross the river by themselves, because after reaching the Jindan period, they can control the sky and completely avoid those demon beasts in the water, but this group of people has a foundation building period and two children.
Everyone knows that the monks of the foundation building period cannot control the sky, and although the monks of the Jindan period can control the sky, they cannot take others to control the sky together, unless they can do it in the Yuan Infant stage.
This also just confirms the fact that these people need help, after all, if there is a strong person in the Yuan Infant Stage in this group, there is no need to come to them for help.
After all the strengths of everyone were determined, one person took out a sign and handed it to everyone.
The old man said at this time: "Tomorrow morning to cross the river, this is a few vouchers to board the spirit boat, there is a little old decay must be explained, recently the river is rampant, if you are unlucky to really meet the demon beast, please don't keep, only everyone in the same boat, can cross the river safely." ”
Li Xiuping nodded and said, "This is natural. ”
The old man nodded, and said no more.
Seeing that the old man didn't mean to test their breath, Chu Yan felt that she was being despised and asked in a low voice, "Master, we don't have to test?" ”
Li Xiuping asked rhetorically, "What do you think?" ”
Chu Yan stuck out her tongue and lowered her head.
Li Xiuping got up and said, "Since this is the case, then the inferior people will not bother the seniors." ”
The old man got up to see him off.
After Li Xiuping and the others left, a monk ran in out of breath and saluted, "Elder, something has happened. ”
The old man frowned and said, "What's the matter?" ”
The man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "West...... There was a demon plague in the west. ”
The old man said indifferently: "Isn't it normal for a demon plague to occur?" What day in the past two years has there been no demon trouble? ”
The man shook his head and said, "No, this time it's much more serious, and it's ......."
The old man frowned and said, "And what? ”
The man said, "According to the news just sent back, at least a thousand demon beasts appeared in the west, and at least hundreds died, and just before sunset, fifty miles to the west, there was a big battle. To be able to kill so many demon beasts in such a short period of time, the strength of the coming person must at least be in the god transformation stage. ”
The old man's eyes narrowed and he asked, "Is the news accurate?" ”
The man nodded and said, "It's news from Fengxia Mountain, and now someone has been sent to confirm it, and the news should be sent back soon." ”
The old man pondered, "If this is the case, most of the demon beasts should have been led to the west, so it will be much easier for me to cross the river tomorrow." ”
He continued, "Go and make sure to make sure you get things figured out." ”
The man answered, turned and ran out.
The old man muttered to himself, "Who could a strong man who is at least in the stage of transformation of the gods? We don't have such strong people in this area, and now most of the god transformation stage has gone to the demon battlefield, so it shouldn't be. ”
After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't come up with a reason, so the old man could only give up and continue to wait for news from the disciples in the sect......
After Li Xiuping and others left the courtyard, they found that they were looking for a place to live, and now it was completely dark, and this small town was not big, but there were many people, so it was probably not easy to find a place to live.
Just as Li Xiuping was worried, he searched almost the entire town, but he couldn't find a place to live.
At this moment, Li Xiuping and others came to the last inn in the small town, whether they were going to sleep on the street tonight, it depended on whether there were any vacancies in this house.
After entering the inn, Li Xiuping felt that it was unlikely that there would be a vacant room, because this small inn was already crowded with people at the moment, and the key was to go outside.
Seeing Li Xiuping and others coming in, a small servant greeted him with a smile on his face, and asked with a smile, "What do the guest officers eat?" ”
It happened that everyone hadn't eaten yet, so Li Xiuping said: "Just get some that can fill your stomach, by the way, do you still have a vacant room?" ”
Xiao Si said with a smile: "It has been all set at noon." ”
Li Xiuping smiled bitterly and found an empty seat to sit down.
At this time, a young man ran down in a hurry, and happened to see Xiao Si who greeted Li Xiuping and others, so he ran up and asked, "Man, I have something to go back now, can you see if the room can be returned?" ”
The guy frowned and said, "The guest officers have already moved in, and they must not be returned." ”
The young man looked really anxious and asked, "Can't you even retreat half?" ”
The guy shook his head and said, "This is the rule set by the shopkeeper, the small one is an errand worker, and the guest officer should not be embarrassed." ”
The young man frowned, glanced at Li Xiuping with his eyes, and then asked, "Then there should be no problem for me to transfer it to others, right?" ”
The guy hesitated, shook his head and said, "There is no problem with this, as long as someone is willing, the store will naturally not say anything." ”
The man looked at Li Xiuping and asked, "I heard that a few people are also looking for a place to live, and it just so happens that there is something important to rush back overnight, and the room will be transferred to you, just give half of the room money in the next half." ”
Li Xiuping asked, "How much?" ”
The young man stretched out a palm, but hesitated, bent his two fingers, and said, "Three taels of silver." ”
Li Xiuping shook his head and said, "Two taels." ”
Everyone was stunned, including Li Xiuping's two apprentices, especially Chu Yan, who really couldn't understand his own master.
In the past, those people in the Gongyun Sect didn't take money from him, but he insisted on stuffing the money into others, but now this young man only asks for three taels of silver, but the master has to bargain, is it that in the eyes of the master, thirty spirit stones are not as valuable as three taels of silver?
The young man also frowned, and then gritted his teeth and said: "If it weren't for the fact that there is really something important in the next place, he would not have made such a loss-making transaction if he said anything, and now it is difficult to find a house in this small city, as long as there is time, he will definitely be able to transfer it at a good price. ”
Li Xiuping smiled and said, "That's three taels." ”
"Five taels of silver, I want this room."
As soon as the words fell, a voice sounded, and then a person next door stood up, walked this way, and took out five taels of silver, and slapped it directly into the young man's arms.
