Chapter 257: Let It Be

Lizong, Zhenwu City.

On the way back to Xiao Mansion to send Xiao Mingzhen, Jiang Feng carefully thought about the request she made, a "Dream Demon Heart Pill" that can strengthen his feelings about the illusion in the spirit ruins, taking this kind of pill, if he can withstand twice the pressure given by the illusion, it will have a better effect, and it will be of great benefit to accumulate experience and improve cultivation.

Of course, the pressure of the Spirit Ruins Illusion Realm may also cause those who take the pill to fall into a mental breakdown, fall into the Demon Path, and completely lose themselves in the illusion. Even if you don't take this kind of elixir, there is a small probability that this situation will happen to monks who are not strong enough, but for monks who do not have self-confidence, they will take elixirs to stabilize their mood before entering the spirit ruins to reduce this possibility.

It was no surprise that Xiao Ming was really able to get the opportunity to test the Spirit Ruins of the Li Sect. Born in the five major families, and at the same time comprehended one of the most important combat skills of the family, "Tianluo Wind Dance", the cultivation resources she could get at this time were already among the best in the family, but she was also confined to the "Tianluo Wind Dance" because it belonged to the secret battle array skills, she left the Li Sect at this time, and was greatly restricted, although it was not completely impossible, but she would also be supervised at all times, until she reached the ground level, and after she had a certain amount of self-preservation, she could be free.

"There's no need to be so desperate, with the cultivation resources provided by your family, wouldn't it be better to go with the flow?" Jiang Feng tried to persuade Xiao Mingzhen again, hoping that she would give up such a dangerous attempt.

"Are you unwilling to help me? If you don't want to help me, you won't borrow your spirit stone. Xiao Mingzhen used a child's temper to deal with it, which made Jiang Feng have no way at all, after all, the spirit stone still needs to be borrowed.

"I try my best, but I don't guarantee it. ”

The third-order elixir mentioned by Xiao Mingzhen, the refining materials and methods are very special, although it is not difficult to find low-level elixirs with similar effects, after all, the spirit ruin is one of the important ways for many monks to cultivate, in this regard, it is impossible for any Dan master to ignore this business opportunity, but the "Dream Demon Heart Pill" with double the effect is still difficult to obtain. The way provided by Xiao Mingzhen was to ask for it from a Danshi named "Hundred Medicine Old Immortals", this person has a withdrawn personality, lives in the mountains southeast of the Jincheng faction, and the border with the Wei State, it is rumored that this person gave the pill, everything depends on chance, and it is useless to use force to deter or buy with spirit stones.

That's not a reason why you don't give me additional spirit stones.

Jiang Feng complained in his heart, but sixty third-order pieces were successfully lent out, and there was no need to make any notes, at this point, it was obvious that Xiao Ming really thought that Jiang Feng was still reliable, after all, he was also a leader, and there was no need to hack his own little money.

"That woman doesn't have a sweetheart yet. She leaned over and whispered in Jiang Feng's ear, "Moreover, I already know that she is a member of the Spirit Cage Chamber of Commerce." ”

"You're playing with fire!" Jiang Feng was startled, "She's a prefecture-level cultivator, you actually used ...... on her"

"Shh

You're asking the victim if he or she has the rhythm to feel. Jiang Feng took a long breath and admonished in a stern tone, "Don't take such an adventure next time, especially for high-level cultivators, otherwise you won't know how to die, and the signboard of the Li Sect and the Xiao family may not be useful." ”

"I know, looking at your fierce appearance, you really look like a boss. ”

"You take this thing. Seeing that she was so heartless, Jiang Feng was worried about Xiao Ming's real safety, although she was in the monk battle array, but she could not completely avoid the situation of facing danger alone, thinking of this, she no longer hesitated in her heart, and took out the turquoise necklace, "You take this thing, remember, no matter who asks, you must not tell its origin, if you really can't explain it, just say that it was picked up, you know, it was picked up, and don't break it." ”

"And, it's really dirty. ”

Xiao Mingzhen took the turquoise necklace in his hand and rubbed it for a moment, "Why doesn't it look like it's new, it won't be an ancestral heirloom, right? If you want to deceive girls, you are reluctant to spend this little money, and you have to keep it secret? You are a poor little boss, and you are afraid to die if you give me something, are you afraid that I will rely on you?"

"Hmph, do you think that if I learned the 'Tianluo Wind Dance', anyone can marry?"

She was complaining, but the carriage had already arrived at Xiao's Mansion, she snorted lightly, jumped out of the carriage, and before the carriage turned around and left, she turned around and raised the curtain, "If you don't get the pill, remember to come and tell me, hum!"

This minx!

Jiang Feng sighed, turned sideways and dodged her hand again that seemed to be a confidential visitor, and only after seeing Yi enter the mansion did he think about the question of the turquoise necklace.

For Xiao Ming's real safety, he sent this jewelry out, and how to explain it to Yu Xiaoman when he turned around was a problem, and he had to find a way to get a new Horcrux as soon as possible so that he could get the necklace back. On the other hand, if you can really find the old immortal of the hundred medicines and ask for more than one "Dream Demon Heart Pill", it is also good for you to go to the West Sea Spirit Ruins to practice.

That being said, I'm afraid that the Hundred Medicine Old Immortal is not so easy to deal with, and it is so easy to obtain two precious "Dream Demon Heart Pills". However, it is always necessary to try, but it is not easy to go deep into the Jincheng faction, since the Wei State is in chaos, maybe you can go around in a circle, enter the territory of the Jincheng faction from the Wei State in the opposite direction, and look for the traces of this Danshi.

............

Jincheng faction, southeast border.

Su Liqing walked on the sheep intestine path down the mountain with a cold face, and his mood was very complicated. Unwilling to accept his fate, he visited the old immortal again, but the result was not ideal.

"Forget it, master, let everything be, after all, the medicine fairy still gave you a new elixir. Quan Shuisheng, the attendant beside him, whispered and comforted, this kind of private matter of seeking pills, only he had the opportunity to know, even Su Liqing's daughters, they had no chance to know.

"It's not very likely. Su Liqing was not satisfied.

"But it's better than nothing. ”

"Let's go. Su Liqing no longer cared, the two of them walked one after the other, and after walking for several miles, Su Liqing picked up a red light flying sword, took the sound of power and water, and flew towards the nearest town. After only half an hour, they arrived at Yanshi City, a larger city in the south of the Jincheng faction.

Yanshi City is built on the mountain, warm in winter and cool in summer, and there is a small spiritual land of the second order of the middle grade, Su Liqing spent a lot of money here to place a high-level qi gathering spirit array, so that the spiritual energy here is condensed to the level of the third order of the middle grade spiritual land, and at the same time built a gorgeous cave mansion, which is only for him to use. Normally, in the hot summer or in the middle of winter, he would stay here for a month, put aside most of the chores, and cultivate here with peace of mind.

However, what made him unhappy was that there were two excerpts of the report on the desk.

Not seeking the right elixir has made his heart full of gloom, and seeing this annoying chorus makes him even more unhappy, and even a little depressed, but he has been in charge for a long time, and he knows that in the report, it must be an urgent matter, so he let go of the unhappiness in his heart and took these two reports in his hands.

The first report is the attack on the Leng family, Leng Tingtao chose to publicize the attack on his brother, which is equivalent to throwing the matter to himself, as the person in charge of the power in the sect, it is not difficult for him to find out about this matter, it is just whether he wants to or not, although the Jincheng faction does not advocate secret reporting, but there are still many secret reports, submitted through various channels, he will never let these secret reports be dusty, and those who provide real information are often promoted or rewarded, this kind of action undoubtedly further increases his sources。

Leng Tingfeng's matter, he really didn't want to care, and even thought about why the other party didn't succeed in killing him, it was much simpler, from the bottom of his heart, he didn't want his fourth daughter Su Ya to marry a useless monk who couldn't divide the Leng family's resources. However, after Leng Tingtao married the daughter of the Zhong family, he knew that this was a demonstration to himself, so he could only pay attention to this matter, otherwise, without an explanation, Leng Tingtao's actions were obviously "admonishing" himself, and if he didn't deal with it, he Leng Tingtao would go further and further away from himself.

Listen to the wind coldly, Liu family!

This report is only five words, but it has already revealed all the secrets. It turned out to be the Liu family, why did they do this? Su Liqing pondered for a moment, and then realized the key to it, the Liu family was diverting their attention, wanting to let themselves focus on the Leng family, rather than thinking about his Liu family, obviously, they were trying to find a way to prevent their eldest daughter Su Qiong from marrying into the Liu family, and then dividing the resources of the Liu family.

How is it possible to get you to do so?

Su Liqing picked up another piece of paper, there were still not many words on it, "Shuanglong City came to the guests of the Ancient Sword Gate yesterday. ”

He threw the report to the ground, and dissatisfaction filled his mind again, and he could not dissipate it for a long time. He couldn't help but stand up and paced around the hall, even if the sound of the water waiting on the side quietly ignited the fragrance of calming the spirit, it was completely unable to calm him down.

I want to maintain a calm and peaceful Jincheng faction, but it seems that I can't suppress it.

Occupying the Black Water Gate is his preparation for the chaos in the Wei Kingdom, and it is also a gesture he made in order to attract the attention of various families, as long as the sect works together, there will still be territory, and if the Black Water Gate is opened, the road to the south will be smoother, and there will be more choices, which means that there will be more cultivation resources to be distributed in the future, however, it seems that some people are unwilling to buy their own accounts.

"Shui Sheng, let's go back to Heaven Bless City. Su Liqing immediately made a decision, he planned to deal with the matter of marrying a daughter as soon as possible, and break this deadlock in which everyone was the enemy of himself.

............

Lizong, Zhenwu City, Xiao Mansion.

Xiao Mingzhen made a lame excuse and retreated the maids left and right, so he hurriedly polished the bronze mirror and carefully took out the turquoise necklace.

"It's really old-fashioned, who would give such a gift, this color with clothes, it doesn't seem to be easy. Xiao Mingzhen complained while shining on the bronze mirror and putting on the turquoise necklace.

Bite!

She only felt a trance between the sea of consciousness and the Faxiang, as if something had been added, she quickly closed her eyes, carefully savored the changes, calmed down the restlessness in the Faxiang, and soon, she had enlightenment.

This stinky boss has a lot of secrets!

But I finally have an offensive skill, and I have a bit of a means of self-protection, but unfortunately it didn't last long. He had a heart. She suddenly remembered that she had seen Jiang Feng wearing her gold and jade earrings, it turned out that this was the reason, not because of her hobby of women's clothing.

It's okay, it's okay, the three views are still there.

Xiao Mingzhen immediately came to his senses, and the worries he had been worried about finally fell to the ground. Maybe the gold and jade earrings have a similar function to this turquoise necklace, but they don't suit themselves and don't take them out, or ......

I won't give it to that Yan Shujia!

She bit her silver teeth, frowned, and was unhappy again.

............

Jiang Feng walked in the downtown of Zhenwu City, and he always felt as if someone was thinking about him, and he couldn't help but feel uneasy, but when he saw the slightly luxurious courtyard of the Chu family, this mood was quickly diluted.

Even with Chu Anlan's changes, the courtyard of the Chu family does not seem to show signs of decay and decline, and it seems that it is because it has stabilized its decline.

He handed over the greeting post as usual, and soon Chu Yiming's steward Huang Dong came out to greet him, for Jiang Feng, he was very grateful and even admired in his heart, without Jiang Feng to save the six young people, he Huang Dong's good life, I don't know where it is.

Chu Yiming's courtyard was even more lively than before.

It can be seen that Chu Yiming, who has changed his soul, has changed a lot of "bad habits", and now he gets along well with the various rooms in the mansion. Of course, Jiang Feng knew that there were many reasons for Chu Anlan in this.

On the one hand, knowing that Chu Yiming is not a parent, only him and Chu Anlan, all the acts of exclusion and estrangement also come from this, and these internal factors no longer exist after Chu Anlan's death;

On the other hand, after the Chu family lost Chu Anlan, the core figure, they had to huddle together to keep warm in order to maintain their former power and glory, in this case, Chu Yiming only needs to make some changes to easily integrate into this big family, Jiang Feng's action of returning Chu Anlan's body and storage bag has enhanced Chu Yiming's status in the family, and many people have been assigned Chu Anlan's legacy magic weapons or assets, and naturally this favor will be counted on Chu Yiming, who has a "reliable friend".

Chu Yiming came out of the backyard, and also took his younger brother Chu Yiguang, this time, he also took Jiang Feng to meet his "cheap mother" Zhao, judging from Zhao's situation, she also got rid of the embarrassing situation in the past, with the improvement of Chu Yiming's identity, her status and treatment have also risen.

Chu Yiguang, who is naughty by nature, is also a lot more well-behaved, presumably Chu Yiming has also put a lot of effort into this younger brother, Jiang Feng heard that even if he does not awaken the Faxiang, he already has a special private school teacher to teach the basic Taoism. At this point, the children of ordinary families are far from having such favorable conditions.

After the "performance" on all the etiquette was over, Chu Yiming led Jiang Feng and entered the study together, retreated left and right, played two soundproof notes, and the two exchanged their respective information.

Jiang Feng informed Chu Yiming of the information he had discovered about Dongbo City, and combined with his suspicions about the magic weapon sold by Yin Du, he made his own speculation:

With the help of the spiritual land of Dongbo City, some people arranged a teleportation array to transport the products that were not produced by the Tianyuan Beilu to this place, and sold them in a special way to make huge profits. Moreover, this group of people has an extraordinary background, and they can almost reach the sky.

"This is a capital crime...... Chu Yiming pondered for a long time and only said four words.

"What are you going to do?" Jiang Feng naturally knew that this was a capital crime, the trade between Tianyuan Beilu and other continents had always been strictly controlled and heavily taxed, this kind of high-end magic weapon, the tax rate was even more exaggerated, and evasion would always be severely punished, the problem was that now Chu Yiming was already in the bureau, he provided a place and support for this kind of smuggling, and even if he didn't know, it was no fun.

"I know now why Chu Anlan died. Chu Yiming said quietly, "He must have rejected the requests of some people, and he was unwilling to hand over the spiritual land to those people to use at will and falsify the accounts." also knew why I was set up in a bureau, after Chu Anlan rejected them, maybe this bureau fell on my head. ”

"Why not Chu Yilin?"

"Because Chu Yilin has a good relationship with Chu Anlan's father and son, and I, without careful investigation, know that I am estranged from Chu Anlan, and I will definitely not follow Chu Anlan's instructions and refuse to cooperate with them. ”

"Now it's only one step at a time. Chu Yiming did not sigh or be discouraged because of this, "Know the essence of this matter, then try to make good use of it, these people can safely operate this smuggling route, all links must have been opened, as you guessed, it is impossible that there are no people in high positions here." ”

This sentence reminded Jiang Feng of Yin Du again, and Yin Du gave him a hint, indicating that there were nine old men in it. It's just that it's not clear who it is, and I haven't reached the prefecture level, and I don't have the qualifications to get acquainted.

"Since you can't run away and can't figure out the relationship, you can just go with the flow and enter the game. Chu Yiming looked at Jiang Feng and said with a smile, "How about it, do you have the guts to play together?"
