Chapter 423: Settle in
Qin Wen stretched out his hand and took the tray handed by Dong Qi, the disgust brought by the Qinglong Dan Furnace was even stronger, Qin Wen used his divine sense to probe the spiritual object in the tray, it was indeed a round bead, the same as the one found by the Shi family, it was also a light red spirit bead.
He casually handed the tray to Fang Li behind him, and after the apprenticeship ceremony was completed, Qin Wen followed Dong Qingshan into the courtyard of the Dong family, while Dong Hou and his son followed behind, and after entering the main hall of the Dong family, Qin Wen asked Dong Qingshan about his recovery now.
After receiving an affirmative answer, Qin Wen couldn't hide his doubts about Yuanzhu in his heart, so he opened his mouth and asked, "What kind of spiritual object is that apprenticeship gift that Dong Qi gave me just now? I have also obtained one before, but I don't know what it is used for?"
Dong Qingshan thought for a while and said: "This spiritual object was handed down from my ancestors, it is said that it may have been brought back by my great-grandparents from those countries that believe in the Divine Religion in the more west, I don't know exactly what it is, we have used it for generations to cultivate elixir, and we only brought it from the medicine garden in the backyard today." ”
Qin Wen didn't expect that the Dong family had actually planted elixir, but this place had been looted by the bandits more than once before he came, could it be that none of these people had found the elixir planted by the Dong family, thinking of this, he continued to ask: "It turns out that the elixir that is still planted in your family, I am a Dan master, and I am very interested in the elixir, can you let me go and see it?"
Dong Qingshan got up directly and walked into the backyard with Qin Wen, Qin Wen knew that this should be the secret of the Dong family, so he waved his hand and let Fang Li and Zhao Wu stay in the main hall, while Dong Hou and his son entertained them in the main hall, and after entering the backyard, there were traces of freshly cleaned everywhere, and there were several women cleaning up the weeds.
After walking through two yards. What appeared in front of Qin Wen was a back garden, the courtyard door was slightly closed, and traces of being violently kicked open could be seen from above, Dong Qingshan gently pushed open the courtyard door, Qin Wen saw that the garden was planted with ordinary flowers and plants and some ornamental trees, but at a glance there was no elixir.
Seeing Qin Wen's somewhat puzzled expression. Dong Qingshan took Qin Wen to a wall in the west, at this time, Qin Wen's divine sense suddenly felt a wave of spiritual energy fluctuations, Dong Qingshan turned to Qin Wen at this time and said, "This is a magic circle of my family, Qin Ye, please follow me in,"
Qin Wen nodded, followed Dong Qingshan directly in the direction of the wall, and after a few turns, his eyes suddenly lit up, and a strong medicinal fragrance rushed into Qin Wen's nose. What appeared in front of Qin Wen was a ten-zhang square medicine garden, which was planted with dozens of common elixirs, the longest of which had been around for a thousand years.
Qin Wen nodded slightly at this time and said: "It turns out that the inside of this magic circle is a medicine garden, and it is really set up more cleverly, I said that Lishan Town has been searched by soldiers and bandits so many times, and no one has found it." ”
Dong Qingshan also nodded and said, "Although this magic circle is built against the wall, it has no connection with the outside space, unless you enter it from the mouth of the magic circle." Otherwise, you won't get into it at all. And put that spirit bead inside, and you can't find the aura of the medicinal herbs inside with your divine sense from the outside, so this town has suffered so many times of military rebellion, but this medicine garden has been preserved. ”
Qin Wen observed these cultivated elixirs, and he spoke: "That spirit bead is useless on me, if your medicine garden is discovered by others, it will not work." Why don't you still put that spirit boat in here, these elixirs will grow and mature in the future, and it will also be beneficial to your family. ”
Dong Qingshan hurriedly waved his hand and said: "By all means, how can there be a reason to take back the apprentice's gift, I have heard the elders talk about it before." Originally, we all came from the national military camp in the east, the Danshi over there is a high and profound realm, Ah Qi can worship under your door, it is the honor of our entire family, if Ah Qi can follow Qin Ye to practice to the high-level Dan Master in the future, it doesn't matter if he has a medicine garden or not. ”
"It's a pity that it was the invasion of the demon race, separating our living here from the country in the east with deserts and grasslands, most of our monks here are now following Western countries to learn the skills of refining weapons, and gradually the Dan Dao is declining more and more, Qin Ye's caravan came at the right time, and it can also allow me to wait for my lifetime to also appreciate the treasures of the Heavenly Empire. ”
Qin Wen saw that he was determined not to take back the spirit bead, so he didn't mention this matter anymore, and now that the trade route has been opened, his caravan is staying in Lishan Town, presumably the rebellion of soldiers and bandits will not affect here in the future, even if this medicine garden can't be preserved in the future, he can also bring pills and elixirs from the city of expulsion.
After the two of them took another turn in the medicine garden, they walked out of the circle again, and after returning to the main hall, Dong Hou had already prepared the wine banquet, although the dishes were a little simple, but they also saw the respect of the Dong family for Qin Wen, and Qin Wen asked a monk to call Han Shang and the others who stayed in the courtyard of Xicheng at this time.
Han Shang, who was meditating, didn't expect Qin Wen to come back so soon, of course, he was also surprised and happy to see Fang Li coming with Qin Wen, Han Shang knew that Qin Wen only went back and forth so quickly, there should be a reason, and it was not suitable to ask in the Dong Mansion, so after seeing Qin Wen and Dong Qingshan, he chatted with Fang Li at the banquet.
After eating, Qin Wen left the Dong family with the monks of his caravan, returned to the courtyard where he lived, and gathered all the monks over and said: "This is the place you should be familiar with in the future, our caravan will cover the entire continent in the future, and Lishan Town is also a very important point, when we came last time, only Han Shang and I took four caravan monks, and this time we have added some more manpower." ”
"Next, I will arrange your respective division of labor, let's do our part according to this division of labor for the time being, and in the future, more and more monks will be sent here from the city of expulsion, so this framework must be built first, and the monks who come next time can directly fill in it." ”
Speaking of this, Qin Wen looked at Fang Li, who was standing with Han Shang, and said: "In the future, the protection of Lishan Town will be handed over to Fang Li, there are basically no spiritual level cultivators in this country of Huichuan, it shouldn't be a problem for you to protect a town, if you encounter an army here, it is best to deter them, try not to clash with them, if it is a mountain bandit, kill them directly." ”
"Since Fang Li is here, Han Shang, your task is the caravan, after I arrange the task today, I have to rush back to the city of expulsion, and the affairs of the caravan will be completely responsible for you in the future, you will first lead the caravan to some more countries during this time, and then find a suitable place for our caravan to stay, if the caravan is more sufficient to replenish the monks in the future, I will arrange for honest and reliable monks to stay in those places." ”
Han Shang and Fang Li both bowed down and agreed, at this time Qin Wen asked Zhao Wu to take off the hat, Han Shang and Fang Li both recognized Zhao Wu, after all, the first time they chased and killed Qin Wen at that time, they were captured by Zhao Wu's soldiers, and they didn't talk to Zhao Wu at the banquet, so I don't know what the purpose of Qin Wen brought him this time.
Qin Wen introduced Zhao Wudao at this time: "This Zhao monk will also stay in Lishan Town in the future, there are many people among you who know him, I won't introduce him more here, but you have to remember one thing, Brother Zhao came here, and our trade route is a secret in our house, and anyone who returns to the city of expulsion can't discuss half a sentence, as long as someone spreads the slightest rumor, all the monks who spread these two things will be killed." ”
Hearing Qin Wen say these words sternly, all the monks couldn't help but turn pale, and Qin Wen then opened his mouth and asked Han Shangdao, "How are you doing recruiting monks these days?
Han Shang thought for a while and said: "Since that time to kill the mountain bandits, the number of monks passing by from Lishan Town has decreased dramatically, from you to the present, we have recruited a total of more than thirty monks in the middle and upper ranks of the Xuan Shi Realm, and there is not a single monk in the Xuan Master realm, these monks are all dragging their families to live in Dongcheng." ”
Qin Wen and Zhao Wu glanced at each other, then nodded and said: "These monks will be handed over to Zhao Wu for training in the future, and other monks must not disturb his work, if Lishan Town encounters an enemy attack, Fang Li, you can ask Zhao Wu to ask him to help, but other than this, Zhao Wu does not accept any tasks." ”
Fang Li nodded and agreed, Qin Wen then set his eyes on Han Shang and said, "The families of these monks, you and Fang Li have also settled them down during this time, and the monks who are practicing the magic circle will give them a high-grade spirit stone every month, and their family will temporarily let the Dong family solve the problem of eating first." ”
Han Shang nodded and said: "During this time, Dong Hou and I have also discussed the problems of these family members, and now they eat all the food we gave to the Dong family, and Dong Hou also promised to let them live in the houses in Dongcheng for the time being, and then discuss these issues in detail when the situation in the town improves and there are more people coming and going to do business." ”
Qin Wen pondered for a while and said: "That's it, anyway, these monks who practice the magic circle also have monthly rules, even if these houses are rented to them by the Dong family in the future, the rent will be less for the time being, and when the town rises in the future, it will increase slightly, remember, Fang Li, you are in this place, you have to deal with the relationship between the Dong family and these people from outside, don't let them have any conflicts." ”
Then Qin Wen said to Zhao Wu: "The number of people is a little less now, but you train first, as our caravan is stationed in Lishan Town for longer and longer, you will train more and more monks in the future." (To be continued......)
