"Disciple Xuanyu, ask to see Master!" A quarter of an hour later, Liu Yu Yujian came to the stone gate of Shizun Zhang Yuanzhen's Cave Mansion, saluted and shouted to the cave mansion.

"It's Xuanyu! Come in!" As the voice of the master Zhou Yutong came out of the cave, the stone gate of the cave rose in response.

"Disciple Xuanyu, meet the master, meet the ancestor!" Liu Yu walked into the cave and saw that in addition to the master Zhou Yutong, the Taoist companion of the ancestor "Xuanmu Zhenren" "Xuanzhao Taoist" Zhou Lutong was also sitting in the cave and was busy praying.

"No need to be polite!Xuanyu, come and sit down and taste the new tea sent by your cousin!" Zhou Yutong, the teacher, beckoned Liu Yu to sit down with a smile, poured a cup of steaming green tea and said.

"Thank you for your kindness, isn't he in the mansion?" Liu Yu was anxious, how could he be in the mood to taste tea, and besides, with the "Xuanzhao Daoren", a senior at the ancestor level, he couldn't step forward and sit down, and asked.

"Beiluan City has sent back evil news, and your master has been called to discuss this matter!" Zhou Yutong, the senior mother, replied with a frown, and then continued: "Is there something to find your master?"

"The disciple also heard about this, and it was rumored that the disciples sent by the sect to the "Black and White Secret Realm" to pick elixir were very few, I don't know if it was true or not?" Hearing that the master was called by the sect to discuss, Liu Yu's heart became more and more uneasy.

"The rumors are indeed true, only three of the two teams of elite disciples sent into the secret realm made it out alive. Senior Zhou Yutong nodded and said.

"What about senior sister?" Liu Yuxin couldn't help but raise his throat and immediately asked.

"Don't worry, Zhi'er, she's one of the three surviving people. When Zhou Yutong saw Liu Yu coming in a hurry, he knew that he was going to ask about it, and said with a chuckle.

Zhi'er, this girl, eccentric, very suitable for her temperament, this time to go to the "Black and White Secret Realm", Zhou Yutong also persuaded for a long time, but in the end she still did not persuade her, she was also shocked when she heard the evil news from Beiluan City, fortunately, she later heard that Tang Zhi was among the three surviving people, which was a false alarm.

"Great!" Liu Yu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

"Now rest assured! Come and sit down, this new tea has only been picked for a short time, try it." The master Zhou Yutong greeted again, and then introduced to Zhou Lutong on the side: "Cousin, this is the new disciple that Yuan Zhen accepted a few years ago, Xuanyu!"

"The disciple has seen the ancestor!" Liu Yu said respectfully again.

"Sit down!" Zhou Lutong glanced at Liu Yu carefully, and said lightly, she has heard of this son, she was originally a personal disciple of her junior brother Tang Hao, and now she is under the disciple of her senior brother Zhang Yuanzhen, and she will open up the "Purple Mansion" with the capital of the three spiritual roots.

She and Tang Hao are under the same "Xuanmu Zhenren", and the relationship has always been good, and the disciples that Tang Hao accepted, she knows very well that they are all crooked melons and inferior dates, and this son can build a successful foundation, which can be regarded as saving some reputation for Senior Brother Tang.

"Thank you, Master!" Liu Yu sat down, took the tea made by Zhou Yutong, took a sip, the mouth was full of fragrance, and there was a pure rain and dew unique to new tea, which was refreshing.

Liu Yu was fortunate to drink this tea several times, named "Junshan Silver Needle", which is the best quality among the many types of tea that Liu Yu has drunk.

At the same time, in the council hall of the apse of the Huangyu Palace, Zhang Yuanzhen, the "Xuannan Daoist", Xiao Jinteng, the "Crazy Lion Daoist", the "Jifeng Daoist" Xiahou Hai, the "Autumn Daoist" Huang Wei, the "Haoyi Daoist" Bai Yucheng, and the "Hongyi Daoist" Yan Shuangcheng, the six stewards of the Huangsheng Sect have all arrived.

"The news from Beiluan City, everyone must have heard about it, the specific situation, Senior Brother Ji Feng, or you tell everyone!" After everyone sat down, Yan Shuangcheng, the master of the Internal Affairs Hall, took the lead in speaking.

Yan Shuangcheng is the eldest disciple of the sect leader of the Yellow Saint Sect "Shengyi Zhenren", and the affairs of the Yellow Saint Sect are all handled by Yan Shuangcheng, except for occasional important matters, which require the sect master "Shengyi Zhenren" to come forward, and he is regarded as the acting sect leader of the sect, and the status of the sect is only below the five Jindan Zhenren.

In addition to the two teams of elite disciples sent, only three survived, and there were many disciples who served in Beiluancheng, who ganged up to enter the secret mirror to collect medicine, and they were also killed, with a total of fifty-four people killed. Xiahou Hai said with a gloomy face.

"Although the "Black and White Secret Mirror" has always been a dangerous place, and there have been casualties among the disciples of the sect in the past, there has never been such a situation where almost the entire team has been wiped out.

"And the disciples of the sect who selected for collecting medicine this time, their cultivation is so unbearable, and there are such big casualties in a small Yellow Rank Secret Realm?" Huang Wei, who was dressed in a Taoist robe, tall and thin, and looked like a middle-aged Taoist, pretended to be angry and said.

"What do you mean?" Xiahou Hai's face changed suddenly, and he asked angrily.

The leader of the team deacon this time is his second brother Xiahou Chuan, "Wo Feng" is the road number of Xiahou Chuan, and more than half of the two teams of medicine collection disciples are the children of the Xiahou family, and the leading disciple Qi Lingyu is out of Xiahou Haimen.

The old rival Huang Wei deliberately made difficult remarks at this time, and fell into the ground, which made Xiahou Hai, who was already heartbroken, more and more angry, and his face was very ugly.

It is said that the lizards in the secret realm have visions, and there are two or three "golden armor leaders" in some tribes at the same time, and their strength has increased greatly, which has caught the disciples of each sect off guard. Yan Shuangcheng saw that Senior Brother Qiu Ri was about to open his mouth to provoke, so he immediately interrupted and said.

"Oh! yes?" When Senior Brother Hongyi said this, Huang Wei snorted lightly and did not open his mouth to provoke Xiahou Hai again.

This time, the Xiahou family competed for the position of steward of this medicine collection task, and arranged a large number of disciples in the clan into the medicine collection team, not wanting to steal chickens and rice, not only lost more than 20 disciples in the clan, but even his own personal disciple, Qi Lingyu, who had a "rain and thunder Dao body" and good potential, also folded in.

Seeing Xiahouhai's pig-liver color, Huang Wei was so happy in his heart, Xiahouhai! Xiahouhai!

"The lizardman in the secret realm did have a vision, this time not only the disciples of this sect were seriously injured, but there were also very few survivors of the disciples of the two sects of the Spirit Ice Palace and the Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines, and they received secret reports, and the same was true of the Tianluo Tantric Sect and the Spirit Beast Sect. Bai Yucheng replied at this time.

"How so?" Zhang Yuanzhen couldn't help frowning and asked.

"That's right! These lizardmen are naturally dull, and the various tribes are fighting each other endlessly, killing each other, even if there are a few more "Golden Armor Leaders", the people sent by each sect are all elite disciples, with magic weapons and spirit talismans to protect themselves, so it stands to reason that there is no need to worry! How can there be such a big casualty?" Xiao Jinteng, the head of the Law Enforcement Hall, was also very puzzled,

"Judging from the news from the surviving disciples of the various sects and some escaped cultivators, there should be a wise man among the lizardmen!" Bai Yucheng continued.

"Senior Brother Haoyi, what is a wise man?" Xiao Jinteng, who had red hair and was tall and burly, asked in a rough voice.

"The younger brother flipped through many ancient books, according to the book, the lizardmen in the "black and white secret mirror" are indigenous, at first each tribe was a clan leader for the shadow moon, there is a lizardman king, named Shadow Moon Fury, the combat power is close to Jindan, the ancient sects have sent disciples to carry secret treasures into the secret realm several times to discuss, after several bloody battles, kill the lizard man king, and destroy the Shadow Moon clan. ”

"After the fall of the Shadow Moon Clan, the lizardmen clans were like a plate of scattered sand, fighting each other endlessly, and the "Black and White Secret Mirror" became the place where the elixirs of each sect were picked. Tens of thousands of occasional strong people have risen and will unify the tribes, bringing a large number of casualties to the disciples of various sects of medicine picking, which is called "wise men"" Bai Yucheng explained slowly.

"How can there be such a thing?" Zhang Yuanzhen couldn't help but be dumbfounded, this "black and white secret mirror" has always been the place where the elixirs of various sects are picked, and he doesn't want to have such secrets among them, after the war, the sect's demand for the two elixirs of "Broken Empty Grass" and "Seven Star Flower" has increased greatly, and now such a change has happened.

"Senior Brother Xuannan doesn't need to worry too much, whether there is a "wise man" in the lizardman tribe still needs to be determined, even if this is the case, according to the method recorded in the ancient books, send a large number of elite disciples into the secret realm, kill this "wise man", and the lizardman tribes will return to a plate of scattered sand. Bai Yucheng said confidently.

"If this is the case, the secret realm will be opened again, and the children of the Xiahou family will be willing to fight for the sect!" Xiahou Hai gritted his teeth and said.

"Okay, this matter still needs to be discussed with the Spirit Ice Palace and the Ten Thousand Medicine Valley, and we will discuss it later. Have all the Daoist Temples "Qingke Dan" taken back the sect?" Yan Shuangcheng frowned lightly and interrupted Xiahou Hai to say.

"All the sects have been recovered, a total of two hundred and fourteen in half a year!" Bai Yucheng immediately opened his mouth to reply, and he was fully responsible for the matter of taking back the "Qingke Dan" of Taoist temples in various places, and he would collect it for half a year, without delaying for a moment.

"Senior Brother Xuannan, how many of the sect's disciples have succeeded in building a foundation in the past six months?" Yan Shuangcheng nodded, turned his head to Zhang Yuanzhen on the side and asked.

"Senior brother, in the past six months, a total of twenty-nine disciples have entered the "Zhufu Stone Room" to build a foundation, and two of them have advanced to open up the Purple Mansion. Zhang Yuanzhen replied.

"Judging from the secret reports sent back by the secret disciples sent into the territory of the Tianluo Tantric Sect and the Spirit Beast Sect, the two sects are no different. There is a disciple of the sect Li Ruizong stationed in the Xijiao Taoist Temple, who violated the door rules, ** several mortal women, absconded into the Xijiao Mountains after the incident, and the law enforcement disciples who had been tracked down the day before yesterday were killed on the spot. Seeing Senior Brother Hongyi looking at him, Xiao Jinteng spoke.

"There are 9,632 official disciples in this sect, 9,150 Qi cultivation disciples, and 477 foundation building disciples. ”

"The half-year expenditure is 1.8 million low-grade spirit stones, the total expenditure of the sect's task remuneration and position is 11.27 million low-grade spirit stones, and the consumption of various things such as meals, refining tools, drawing talismans, and raising spirit beasts is 110 million low-level spirit stones. Huang Wei took out a thick account book and said carefully.

"Zongmen has a total of 323 mines of various sizes such as iron ore concentrate, copper ore concentrate, spirit gold mine, etc., 24 spirit stone veins (16 are being mined, 6 are fallow ore recuperation, and 2 are not mined), and the income from mining deposits in half a year is 65 million low-grade spirit stones. ”

"The shops and Huang Shengling Village set up by the sects in various places have a total income of 60 million low-grade spirit stones, and the spiritual fields and medicine gardens in various sects have a total income of 30 million low-grade spirit stones. ”

"Subtracting various expenses, the net income of the sect's internal treasury in the past six months is about 30 million low-grade spirit stones. After Huang Wei finished speaking, Xiahou Hai also took out a thick account book and said.

"Explain it, from today onwards, the rewards of all tasks of the sect, spirit stones and contribution points will be doubled. After listening to Huang Wei and Xiahou Hai, the two stewards of Wanwutang, Yan Shuangcheng spoke.

"Senior brother, if this is the case, the sect's monthly expenses and income will be close to the same, and there will not be many spirit stones in the inner treasury. Xiahou Hai was taken aback and hurriedly reminded.

"This is a special order from the sect master, just notify it. Yan Shuangcheng took a deep breath and said, Master's move was far-reaching, and it was obviously well thought out.

In this Yunhai War, more than 3,000 disciples of the sect were killed and wounded, and most of them were disciples in the middle and late stages of Qi training, so the sect set up dojos in major prefectures and cities, and widely accepted disciples, and the sect added 4,000 Taoist children, these Taoist children became poor children, born in a secular family, without family support, and it was very difficult to cultivate in the future.

The master doubled the rewards for various tasks in the sect, and the direct beneficiaries were the qi cultivation disciples in the sect, especially these poor children who were like loose cultivators, because the foundation building monks of the sect and the qi training children of various families occupied ninety percent of the positions in the sect, and although the task remuneration and rewards were doubled, the salaries of each position were not promoted.

Almost all kinds of miscellaneous tasks issued by the sect are completed by these poor disciples, these scattered tasks are usually time-consuming and laborious, and the remuneration and rewards are not high, and they have always been thankless, and the poor disciples at the bottom do not want to take the task, but they have no choice.

The sect master obviously intends to improve the overall treatment of Qi cultivation disciples, so as to quickly restore the number of mid and late stage Qi cultivation disciples who have been sharply reduced in the sect war, and at the same time, he also hopes that more Qi cultivation disciples can impact the foundation building period, after all, the three sects and the Tianluo Tantric Sect and the Spirit Beast Sect have only agreed on a truce, and once a thousand years have passed, the war will surely be rekindled.
