Chapter 13: The First Business
There was nothing to do for three days, and Yang Ning's Wealth Pavilion was still not opened, but with the money intercepted by Yang Ning, the old man and Xiao Jiujiu were finally able to have a full meal.
But three days later, the soldiers finally came to the door.
"Open the door." Very rude, the wooden door that was not very strong in the first place, made matters worse and crumbling.
"Slow down, slow down, is this going to tear down the old man's door?" The old man opened the door, but when he saw that it was the official army who came to the door, his tone suddenly became polite.
"It turned out to be an official." The old man immediately laughed.
The three soldiers, expressionless, did not care about the old man's previous unkindness.
"Old man, have you any strange sword cultivators come here recently?" The leader of the officers and soldiers asked.
"Sword cultivation?" The old man was confused.
"Yes."
The old man shook his head.
"If so, why is the door closed?"
"And what's your door here?"
"Explain clearly, I won't hold you accountable, sir, otherwise...... Hum! ”
The leader had a knife hanging from his waist, and the spear in his hand emitted a cold light, and a compelling cold air came towards the old man.
The old man subconsciously retreated, and the chill hit people, which was undoubtedly fatal to him, an ordinary person, as if he saw a tiger pounce.
The person at the head is not afraid of such an ordinary person's resistance at all, an ordinary person, who can live in Lieyuan City, is already very face-saving, can he still resist?
Joke.
But the last thing that shouldn't have happened was an accident.
Just when the chill was about to fall on the old man, suddenly a momentum, stronger, like warm light, instantly dissolved the chill.
"Who?"
The spear has even been aimed at the old man, as long as the old man makes a rash move, this spear is afraid that it will be the first time to target the old man.
"Me!" Yang Ning was not in a hurry, and slowly walked out of the hut where he lived.
"Why, if you have a little cultivation, you can do whatever you want?"
"Or are you so arrogant all along?"
Yang Ning would not be polite, but Yang Ning was also very careful and did not exude any sword-related aura.
"Who are you?" The spearhead of the three of them was instantly aimed at Yang Ning.
"I'm the shopkeeper here." Yang Ning said.
"Shopkeeper?" Only then did the leader remember that a few words seemed to be written on the door of the dilapidated small courtyard here.
"This is the ......" The person led by him tried to recall what he had just seen, but because he was not concerned about this matter, he didn't care, but he didn't think that there was a great cultivator hiding here, and he was somewhat withdrawn.
"Fortune Pavilion."
Yang Ning replied.
"If it's a door-to-door business, both hands are welcome, but if it's to make trouble, think about it!" Yang Ning's martial tone was also slightly chilly.
Yang Ning waved his palm, and from the surroundings of the small courtyard, a light curtain began to rise gradually, more slowly, but in the light curtain that rose from the surroundings, there was a breathtaking atmosphere.
This kind of photographing made the three officers and soldiers feel as if they had fallen into the abyss, especially when they looked at Yang Ning at this moment, as if it was an insurmountable wall, and they could be suppressed at any time.
"You...... Who the hell are you? The officers and soldiers at the head were a little flustered in their eyes and asked, but they seemed to be lacking in energy.
"Wealth Pavilion Master." Yang Ning responded again.
"It seems that you don't want to live anymore." Yang Ning's voice was majestic and condescending, and his palm gradually began to rise, and then slowly pressed down.
In the surrounding light curtain, countless suppressive forces began to press down on the three of them.
The reason why Yang Ning did this was not because of the three people in front of him, Yang Ning believed that in this place, the three of them were just a temptation, and there were definitely people watching in secret.
At this point, Yang Ning is extremely sure.
So Yang Ning must use his means to at least expose something, and then prove his innocence to the person behind him.
Therefore, Yang Ning must make a move for this.
Sure enough, just as the power of suppression was about to fall on the three officers and soldiers, a figure appeared at the gate of the small courtyard.
"That's enough."
Yang Ning stopped.
"Good means." Although the commander didn't want to admit it, he had to admire Yang Ning's methods.
The formation, whether it is the big family or the entire Jiujiang Dynasty, is a short board, because this is a world where the weak eat the strong, so even though there are many powerful cultivators, they are all strong individuals, and few people can study the formation.
But at this moment, the Commander's eyes were a little bright.
Yang Ning ignored the so-called good means, looked at the commander, and said, "Then what do you think, I am?" ”
"It's not." The commander knew very well that most of the people who studied the formation like this, or other hobbies, were people with strange personalities, so he hurriedly came to a conclusion.
"But Your Excellency, I will pay a special visit when the time comes." The Commander said, waving at his men and motioning for them to go.
Soon, Yang Ning and his father-in-law were left in the small courtyard again.
Yang Ning waved his palm, and the surrounding light curtain gradually retreated.
The old man stared at the scene around him and was speechless, because this method was beyond his cognition.
It's too shocking.
Yang Ning didn't expect that it was just a simple formation, and after using the first grade Firmament Crystal, it would have such a good effect.
This made Yang Ning think more at once.
The Wealth Pavilion is naturally for the purpose of collecting money, and in the Firmament Realm, the best is naturally the Firmament Crystal.
However, Yang Ning did not have the luxury of getting a high-grade Firmament Realm Stone in Lieyuan City, after all, Lieyuan City was only a border town, whether it was strategically or important, such as high-grade Firmament Crystal, it was impossible to spread here, but this did not prevent Yang Ning from collecting money.
The reason why Yang Ning is so thirsty for financial resources is not just for himself, but to treat Xiao Jiu, no, it should be for Xiao Jiu's future.
The innate extreme pupil itself represents strength, but now is not enough, Xiao Jiu has been in pain for seven or eight years, what Yang Ning has to do is to transform these seven or eight years of pain into Xiao Jiu's power for Xiao Jiu.
Congenital means that it is destined from the mother's womb before it is born.
Therefore, when Xiao Jiu is still in his mother's womb, there will be some unbelievable power, which is the pain brought by the congenital pole pupil to Xiao Jiu, and this power has been accumulating in Xiao Jiu's body, and Yang Ning is collecting money at the moment, the purpose is to find this kind of thing that can transform power for Xiao Jiu.
And these things, Yang Ning has no way to obtain them at present, so he can only buy them.
Yang Ning helped Xiao Jiu so much, not because of any other purpose, but because he liked this little girl.
And Yang Ning believes that in this process, he will continue to improve and let his strength grow.
With the departure of the commander, Yang Ning's face gradually began to have a smile.
Because the first step of the Wealth Pavilion has been achieved.
The purpose of the Wealth Pavilion is to collect money, and the best way to collect money is to be targeted by the officials of the Jiujiang Dynasty, and in Lieyuan City, Yang Ning's approach is the most direct.
"Uncle, it's okay." Yang Ning comforted him, and Yang Ning was helpless about his father-in-law's body.
With Yang Ning's eyesight, it can naturally be seen that the life span of the old man is running out, if it weren't for the little tweet, I'm afraid the old man wouldn't be able to hold on for a moment.
However, Yang Ning still did his best and tried not to let Xiao Jiu suffer.
Yang Ning had the support of the three of them last night, anyway, in the next few days, Yang Ning believed that it would definitely be calm here, so in his thatched hut, he set up an isolation formation, and then began to absorb the primary-level firmament spar that was robbed from the three of them.
Looking at the spar in front of him, which was less than the size of his thumb, Yang Ning began to operate Ling Tianjue, and with the spiritual power pouring into the spar, Yang Ning once again marveled at Ling Tianjue's terror.
Absorbing the spiritual power of the spar, it was unprecedentedly smooth, and it seemed to have a feeling of entering his own back garden.
"Ling Tianjue, what kind of mission do you shoulder?" Yang Ning didn't know, but from the horror shown by the formation at this moment, Yang Ning's gaze gradually had a taste of deep thought.
Of course, the hands still don't stop.
Yang Ning got a total of eight hundred spars from the three of them, and Yang Ning needed half an hour to absorb a spar at the moment, such a time, if it was known by outsiders, I am afraid it could only be called a monster.
Seven days passed in a hurry, and Yang Ning's Wealth Pavilion finally ushered in its first guest.
Not the official leader, but a person who represents the family.
The patriarch of the Zhong family came in person.
The Zhong family, the family is not very big, and it rose in the war, but because of this, the foundation is weak, so there are frequent thefts in the family.
A few days ago, the Zhong family patriarch happened to hear about the power of Yang Ning's formation in the City Lord's Mansion, so he came to visit today.
"Dare to ask, is there anyone in the hospital?" There was some humility in his voice, and his posture was very low.
Yang Ning had already discovered the visitor when he knocked on the door, but he did not come forward at the moment.
The old man opened the door and welcomed the head of the Zhong family, the old man looked at the comer, dressed luxuriously, obviously not low.
The old man was also a little nervous, looked at the visitor, and asked, "I don't know who the guest is looking for?" ”
Zhong Pan looked at this very ordinary old man in front of him, and was slightly surprised, because he learned from the City Lord's Mansion that there was a formation master here, but looking at his age, he was very young, but why is this old man an ordinary person now, let go of the conclusion, this person is definitely not the main master.
"Dare to ask the old man, ...... here" Zhong Pan couldn't remember the name of this place for a while, but quickly thought of the extremely exaggerated publicity, and then continued: "Is the master of the Wealth Pavilion here?" ”
"Pavilion Master?" The old man was also stunned for a while, and suddenly reacted, and said, "Pavilion master, wait a minute, I'll go and inform." ”
The old man came to Yang Ning's house and was about to knock on the door, but he heard Yang Ning's voice.
"I see." Yang Ning walked out of the hut, looked at the richly dressed middle-aged man, and said, "I am." ”
Zhong Pan looked at Yang Ning, said in his heart, and greeted him with a smile: "Pavilion Master, I am the head of the Zhong family in the city, and I also ask the Pavilion Master to take action to solve problems for my Zhong family and lay out the formation, Zhong Pan is grateful here." ”
"Oh?" Yang Ning was stunned, but he didn't expect that the official person didn't come, but it attracted a family patriarch.
"Master Zhong, can I do a field trip?" Yang Ning asked.
"Nature, this is nature." Although Zhong Pan didn't understand what a formation was, he understood the way of formation, and it had a great impact on the terrain, so he nodded without hesitation.
"Okay." Yang Ning turned to look at Xiao Jiu not far from his father-in-law, and said, "Xiao Jiu, come with me?" ”
"Okay, big brother." After a few days of getting along, Xiao Jiu has great trust in Yang Ning.
"Master Zhong, lead the way." Yang Ning said.
"Pavilion Master, I haven't asked you yet...... Zhong Pan was very polite, because he had just probed Yang Ning with his spiritual power, but he found that the other party's body was like cotton, giving people a bottomless feeling.
"Yang Ning."
"It turned out to be Master Yang."
Zhong Pan came and went quickly, and soon took Yang Ning and shuttled through the streets.
Lieyuan City, because this is a border town, there are not many streets, but there are more alleys.
However, these did not stump Yang Ning, and soon, the three of them came to a large mansion.
"Zhongfu."
Yang Ning was not surprised.
