Chapter 272: Gifts are still exchanged
"A very special condition. β
Shangguan Boliang looked around and knew that several of the people present were all figures from the power center of the Asa Mountain Sect, so he said bluntly, " Don't hide it from you, I practice a special Dao method, which requires an extremely wide private space, which cannot be done in Lizong, so after so many years, I have broken off the idea of the Great Dao, and now, I think that if you can meet my request, I can repair Luo Chuan's great array for free, and refine a new demon spirit lamp for you, with the materials provided by the head of Jiang, if you are willing to activate the spirit stone, the intensity of the spiritual energy in the large array can reach the level of the third-order spiritual land at most. β
"But," Shangguan Boliang didn't wait for a few people to express their opinions, he changed his words and poured cold water on his head, "This is theoretically speaking, if you consider the actual situation of the Qianshan Sect, it is more realistic to keep it at a reasonable level, fifty percent more spirit stones than the existing needs, and reach the level of the second-order spiritual land, what do you think?"
Second-Order Spiritual Land......
The law enforcement elder Wang Xiandao, the foreign affairs elder Wu Quanzhong, and the general affairs elder Zheng Luda who were present suddenly had a calculation in their hearts, and Jiang Feng couldn't help but think of the final effect of the big array, the previous first-order spiritual land level was a good condition for a spirit-level monk, but for the cultivation of a Xuan-level monk, it could only be regarded as a poor level, just like the small spirit veins under construction in various places, it must rely on additional spirit gathering arrays to be suitable for the cultivation of Xuan-level monks, and now the formation body can reach the level of second-order spirit land, and with the assistance of the spirit gathering array, the effect is naturally excellentγ
"What are the specific conditions?" Seeing several elders looking at him at the same time, Jiang Feng knew that he had to make a decision on this matter.
"Two thousand acres of wasteland, ten years. Shangguan Boliang stretched out two fingers and reported an astonishing number, "How is it?"
"Outsiders can't enter?"
"No, when I cultivate, I will enter the realm of selflessness, and I will not distinguish between friend and foe. β
"Isn't your cultivation an evil skill? It can't be a forbidden technique, right?"
"No, I can guarantee that, and I can promise not to do anything that harms the Asagama Sect. Shangguan Boliang said, "I can sign a soul contract to guarantee this." β
Whew-
Jiang Feng looked at the three elders, only the general affairs elder Zheng Luda nodded alone, and the other two were silent, as if they were weighing the gains and losses in their hearts, authorizing a large area of land to be used by the monks of the outer sect for private use, the Qianshan Sect did not have this old precedent to follow, presumably several people were also afraid of taking on the involvement of the "private sale of the sect's land", "Do you have any additional requirements for the location?"
"No, it doesn't matter if there is a spiritual place or not, secluded, uninhabited land is a good thing, and I don't like to be disturbed by others. β
"Well, in the southwest of Zhanchuan Town, adjacent to the uninhabited area of the Poison Spring Swamp, two thousand acres of land are set aside, what do you think of these conditions?"
"I'm afraid it will take two thousand five hundred acres," Wang Xiandao, the law enforcement elder in this regard, was more cautious, and when he saw that Jiang Feng had already taken on the role, he added, "For the five hundred acres of land on the periphery, we need to send people to garrison it to prevent others from entering here by mistake and being accidentally injured by Shangguan Daoyou." β
"Well, 2,500 acres, neither the monks nor the laymen of our sect will enter here. Jiang Feng promised, this person who made an exception could only be himself as the head of the sect, but fortunately, the sect is now a hall of words, and several important elders are there, so there is no need to go to the elder council to discuss, "However, Shangguan Daoyou, I still have a reluctant request." β
"Just speak!"
Seeing that Jiang Feng happily agreed to his conditions, Shangguan Bo was also a little happy in his conscience, two thousand acres of land can indeed be purchased in Lizong, but on the one hand, it costs a lot of money, and on the other hand, privacy cannot be guaranteed. But in a small sect like the Assayama Sect, through its own "ability", it has successfully reached a deal, and the avenue can be expected again, which is really a good thing.
In the past few days, he has been busy with the affairs of the small spiritual vein in the northern part of the Ashala Sect, his body is tired, and the depressed thoughts in his heart have dissipated a lot, and just then he has an occasional clear breath in his mind, like an initiation, recalling the various past with his lover Wanqing, and he can't help but have new thoughts.
Is it because my cultivation is too low, resulting in an insecure sense of insecurity?
If I wasn't the first stage of the Xuan level, but the high stage, or even the prefecture level, the high stage of the earth level, and the pseudo-heaven level, would the result be very different? Recalling those sweet pasts with Wan Qing, he suddenly realized that Wan Qing was a woman who was determined and very fond of the Great Dao, and if he tried his best to improve, maybe one day, he could easily redeem her.
Yes, it must be.
"I want to order a batch of flying swords, or other flying magic weapons, twenty, it is required to be suitable for Xuan-level monks, and it is fixed to have the [Demand Reduction] attribute, as long as there are no obvious weaknesses in other attributes, I don't know if it is possible, how many spirit stones are needed for the total price?"
The idea of customizing a flying sword, Jiang Feng has already had it, on
Cimo Haishu and Liao Shencang attacked, and the miserable situation of the Xuan-level monks of the Ashala Sect without flying magic weapons is still vivid. The main reason why it has not been purchased is that there is no spirit stone, which is the same thing as not having a standard sect robe, but the matter of the robe has been set and solved before the Ascending Immortal Conference, and the cost is still within the affordable range.
Speaking of flying magic weapons, Jiang Feng only spent sixty second-order spirit stones to buy the "Flying Boat Against the Wind" by himself, it was really because Shangguan Xiuqi had something to ask for himself at that time, so he was able to bargain so ruthlessly, of course, the result was also obvious, Shangguan Xiuqi no longer wanted to have anything to do with him. In other words, a magic weapon of this quality "Flying Boat Against the Wind" can be priced at least one and a half third-order, or even two third-order or more, in the magic weapon shop.
The Xuan-level monks of the Qianshan Sect already have positions, in addition to themselves, counting Si Guanghao, who has only recently joined, there are a total of fifteen people, of course, these fifteen people, theoretically speaking, everyone does not need to be issued a flying sword, such as Li Youde, who is wealthy, and Si Guanghao, who can not care about salary, and Wei Ruoqi, the new monk of the Wei family, should have their own flying magic weapons, but since this magic weapon is rationed by the sect, it must be a bowl of water, and there is a unified standard to serve the public. It is set according to the position, the number of years you have joined the sect, etc., not because you are rich, you will not be distributed, in addition, you must have a long-term plan to prepare for more new Xuan ranks, so twenty is a more reasonable number for the time being.
"One and a half three-order and one hand, the total price is thirty third-order, but it does not guarantee the unity of the system. Spirit stones can be given to me at this time next year, and I don't lack spirit stones for the time being. β
Shangguan Boliang reported a reasonably reasonable number, this price is not low, in the magic weapon shop, a third-order can also make do with the purchase of a flying magic weapon, but the quality of the Shangguan family is naturally more guaranteed.
"Okay, deal!"
Although it is a large amount of arrears, but next year's affairs are not in a hurry, seeing that the three elders have a happy and sad look on their faces, Jiang Feng knew that they were struggling with their personal interests and how to choose whether the sect had too many debts, so he smiled and comforted, "Don't worry, if the sect can't open the pot, I will find a way to solve it, but you have to be mentally prepared, the sect's treasury owes me more and more, if it accumulates to a certain extent, I will have to collect interest." β
"Hey, sir, okay. Wang Xiandao sighed and didn't say anything, he asked himself if he had this courage, as for the interest, he knew that Jiang Feng was joking.
"Lao Wang, what do you care, with the flying sword, we can fly to the Cold Mountain Cultivation Ground. Zheng Luda doesn't care about this, "I take care of housework, and I don't worry about running out of money." Anyway, Shangguan Daoyou, when will it be delivered?" he rubbed his hands and looked eager to try.
"Right now!"
Shangguan Boliang's words surprised everyone present. I saw Shangguan Boliang simply pull a chair and sit down, and discharged all kinds of flying swords, spirit boats, flying sails, and even all kinds of strange-shaped flying magic weapons from the storage bag one by one, there were all kinds of them, there were more than forty of them, and then half of them were picked out and put back, Jiang Feng was on the side, checked with Linglong Baoguang, and found that he first received a few poor quality ones, and then picked the best ones away, leaving only twenty of the more mediocre ones.
"This is what I practiced a few years ago, because there is no shortage of spirit stones, and I have never sold them, so I will deal with them for you. I'll list the attributes to you one by one later, so you can choose and screen them. All flying magic weapons have the [Demand Reduction] attribute, and there are no particularly bad attributes, which our refiners are all reputable, so you can rest assured. β
Just practicing?
Jiang Feng was shocked in his heart, secretly knowing that you had accumulated so many flying magic weapons in your hands, you should really bargain again, but the other party directly promised to pay this time next year, and he had fully considered himself and the Asshan Sect, this point, it is not okay to be ungrateful in his heart, out of the consideration of courtesy, it is not authentic to bargain again.
Shangguan Boliang spent some time to mark the attributes of all the flying magic weapons, and then asked Wang Yi to lead the way and solve the problem of the big array alone, the materials needed also belonged to Shangguan Boliang who needed to raise it personally, Jiang Feng and several elders did not need to worry, the ghost vine heartwood was also handed over to him, for this reason, he would stay in Luochuan for about seven days before going north and continue to help the Qianshan Sect build a small spiritual vein.
It's good that the Qianshan Sect has such a talent, Jiang Feng stood in front of the head of the inner mansion, bathed in some blazing and dazzling sunlight, but he didn't feel any discomfort, what is this warmth, didn't you see that there is still a person in the air who doesn't know how to measure, just picked a golden flying sword, under the scorching sun, Zheng Luda, the general affairs elder who practices flying?
"Look, who is that in the air, it's so ugly to fly!"
A few ordinary children ran by, complaining and envying the nameless wild fruits, chasing, frolicking, and enjoying their happy childhood.
In contrast, Wang Xiandao and Wu Quanzhong were low-key, and the two discussed that they would go directly to the outskirts of Luochuan tonight to try one or two. These flying swords will be distributed to all Xuan-level monks who have joined the sect for more than one year, and the four county guards are not subject to this restriction, and the rest will be stored in the sect's treasury first, waiting for those who meet the requirements to choose.
Jiang Feng stayed for a moment longer, until the sun was deflected, then he took a deep breath, carefully counted the spirit stones he had in hand, counted the recent inputs, and replenished the consumables such as pills and talismans, and there were only thirty-one third-order left. And the arrears have reached an astonishing amount, in addition to the arrears of Chu Yiming and Xiao Mingzhen, thirty new third-order debts of Shangguan Boliang have been added.
Although these arrears are all owed by the sect, the Asayama Sect, which lacks solvency, may still need to find a way to make up for it, I just hope that the balance of each county this year, as well as the business of the Imperial Wind Sect, can give me a surprise.
Jiang Feng suddenly remembered one thing, September 26 was Chu Yiming's wedding date, and he seemed to have to prepare a suitable gift for him who was watching and helping him, so that it could be regarded as a gift exchange!
However, where can I find this spirit stone?
............
Lizong, Zhenwu City.
Chu Yiming was about to go out for the banquet, but the steward Huang Dong hurriedly came over and presented him with a very small folded letterhead, "Liushao, there is your letter." β
"Where did it come from?"
"I don't know, the one that was thrown in was the same as the way the Shangguan girl sent you a letter last time, so I guess ......"
"Or is it her?" Chu Yiming smiled, and in front of the steward Huang Dong, he tore open the letter, and sure enough, a note with only one sentence was revealed:
"Would you take a concubine? If so, how many do you think is appropriate?"
This is a pit, it is as embarrassing as the question last time, Chu Yiming remembered the last time Shangguan Xiuqi threatened to explain the matter of the Full Moon Tower, and he couldn't help but sneer in his heart, he was a man in two lives, although he had never married a wife, but he still felt that this girl was a little naΓ―ve, isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, rich and ordinary people, and he is still qualified to enjoy the blessings of Qi people, why can't he do it?
Although he doesn't have that mind for the time being, isn't it self-imposed to make this kind of promise as soon as possible?
But obviously he couldn't answer like this, like last time, without answering directly, he thought for a moment, then took out a stack of notes that had been prepared after receiving the letterhead last time, and pulled out one of them, and only wrote one line:
"If I die the day after I get married, will you feel lonely and will you keep me to old age?"
To deal with this kind of little girl who likes to be funny, you have to leave the space for thinking to the other party, Chu Yiming folded the note and put it in the envelope of the letter, the previous experience proved that as long as it is placed in the same position, the other party's messenger will take it away, and there must be the Chu family cooperating, but Chu Yiming is too lazy to investigate this kind of trivial matter, the marriage date of September 26 is not set by himself, nor is it under his control, I believe that Shangguan Xiuqi is also trapped in the game, and all he can do is after September 26.
Thinking of this, he was looking forward to it.
But he has more important things, tonight's banquet, is that he took the initiative to contact the mysterious Huang Lao, and in exchange for the opportunity, in the home can not be closed, there is no way to be the enemy of this secret circle, only into it, into it, into the deeper, in order to obtain benefits at the same time, to seek more initiative.
As for the Shangguan family, he suspects that it is also related to this circle, and his own family affair is a clear proof, it is said that this family affair was personally decided by Shangguan Bashuang, the head of the Shangguan family, that is to say, if his hypothesis is true, then there must be a connection between Shangguan Bashuang and Huang Lao.
............
Lizong, the spiritual land of Dongbo City. Five miles to the north.
On a very tightly wrapped two-wheeled carriage, a man with broad shoulders, a grim face, and gray but thick hair came down, and by the moonlight he looked left and right around him, and found no special traces, and then he dived into a dense jungle, where there was a mass grave.
This person is the head of the Shangguan family in Lizong Zhenwu City, Shangguan Bashuang.
He hit a blue light talisman in his right hand, covering his figure, from the outside, there was nothing here, and in the illusion, he took out a five-hole array plate again, inlaid different kinds of spirit stones one by one, with the infusion of spiritual power, between the originally messy tombs, there was a pitch-black door.
He plunged into the black gate, a familiar trance feeling hit, and when he was completely clear in the sea of knowledge, he was already in a narrow and cramped tunnel, this tunnel was crooked, and he felt the rich and familiar aura around him, which was undoubtedly the depths of the spiritual land of the second order of Dongbo City.
Shangguan Bashuang let go of the distracting thoughts in his heart, followed the crooked tunnel, and went straight to the familiar place.
