Chapter 275: Opportunity to Exercise
The letters left by the two were very brief, after all, using the common code of the four people, the number of words would increase the difficulty of reading. Monkey Jin Dong mentioned that he and Guo Shu decided to go to the place where the Yufeng Sect and the Ruijin Gate meet, the two sects are now limited in manpower, and the middle ground is very chaotic, so they want to go to the opportunity, and when there is a suitable opportunity, then ask everyone to go together. Considering the timing of the payment, the two estimated that they had been there for a long time now.
Lei Youqi's letter is even shorter, with only a few numbers, but the content is amazing:
"I have been promoted to the prefecture level, poor, and ask for cooperation. ”
I didn't expect Lei Youqi to regroup so quickly and achieve the prefecture level after the failure of borrowing Dan to impact the ground level last time, there must be a lot of stories in this, this poverty can also be understood, wanting to be promoted itself is a very expensive behavior, such as the necessary third-order spiritual land, the rental fee is a lot of money, plus he is still a casual cultivator, and he can't hold a Dharma meeting to discuss the Tao to temporarily collect money, so he must find an opportunity to cooperate as soon as possible to improve the current predicament.
This appeal, in the heart of Jiang Feng's arms, the trip to the poisonous spring swamp, choose Lei Youqi to help, this person has a good character, does not care, and has now achieved the prefecture level, it can be regarded as the most powerful and most suitable candidate in the "Wuyi" team.
Leave a letter written according to the previous code, explain that if Lei Youqi is free, meet in Zhanchuan Town, Asshan Sect three days later, leave three copies of all the books here, and inform the three of them in detail of the new code delivery method, and temporarily select a "Lizong Four Mountains Landform Face-to-face" as the code manual, Jiang Feng came out of the "usher" Xiaodian, found an ordinary cultivation hall, prepared to rest for a day, and then went to Xun Ansi Nian later tomorrow afternoon, and went to the small gathering of the Fang family together in order to find out if there was anything wrong with them, and whether anyone was doing something against the Assanyama Sect.
In Jiang Feng's opinion, the flaws in Luo Chuan's formation cannot be regarded as accidental. However, Ansi Nian had reminded himself that this group of monks attached great importance to credibility and would not generally do such outrageous things.
If what Ansnian said is correct, then who is behind the scenes? Take 10,000 steps back, even if it was not done by the Fang family, then how do they understand such a change in the formation?
Everything has to wait to see the Fang family.
Jiang Feng released his apprentices Jiang Chengzi and Jiang Zhiwen, and cultivated in the Daoist Pavilion with him, but the Daoist Hall here is much worse than the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, and there is no free Lingguo Lingcha, but even if you count the food for the three of you, it is much cheaper than the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, and now you owe a debt, you can save a little, the most important thing is that the ordinary Lingguo Lingcha has no effect on the current cultivation of the three of them.

Jincheng faction, Lelin City, Kong Er Old Street.
It was getting late, and the small street, which was not noisy even in the daytime, was much quieter now, and if it weren't for the summer heat, it would have tasted bleak.
"Shopkeeper, I'm back. Li Xianzhu was dressed in a gray robe, and entered the "Jingwen Pavilion" shop from the outside with a slight fatigue, and reported to the shopkeeper Qiu Zhenzhen as soon as possible, "Zhou Daxiang watched it for me, I will rest for three hours, and then go for him." ”
"That's good, hard work. Qiu Zhenzhen breathed a sigh of relief, "I didn't notice you, did I?"
"Nope. The yard we rented is ordinary in the neighborhood, and it couldn't be more convenient to observe the situation of the Zhong family. ”
"Okay, you go down and rest. Qiu Zhenzhen dismissed Zhou Daxiang, pinched a handful of dried raspberries on the counter, and leaned at the door, pretending to be idle, but his eyes often swept over the strangers who occasionally walked by on the street corner, but he was worried about why the Zhong family didn't take action.
She used the name of "Jingwen Pavilion" again to give a gift to the Zhong family, and took the risk of leaving a secret word of "Asa Mountain", which was to attract the attention of the other party. The first time I sent something, it was to attract the spies of the Leng family of the City Lord's Mansion to divert their attention, and since the daughter of the Zhong family married Leng Tingtao, there have been a lot fewer spies nearby, and this time I sent things to attract the Zhong family, if they don't take the bait, their own strategy will fail.
Qiu Zhenzhen's plan is very simple, by exposing his identity as a "shallow mountain sect", he will reach a certain cooperation with the Zhong family, and then ask them to investigate whether the owner of the "Xiangtanju" is Wanqing, from this point of view, the Zhong family is much stronger than himself, and he will not startle the snake.
It is not harmful for Zhong Shan, the head of the Zhong family, who has just taken over the position of the city lord of Ningta City, to communicate with the Asa Sect, not to mention that he also has to discuss with the Asa Sect the issue of opening up roads and trade, although there is no problem with taking the official contact channel, and it is also unimpeded, but it may be better to have a private communication channel.
A descendant of the head of the Yanqiling family, doesn't he have any ambition at all? Qiu Zhenzhen didn't believe it, she believed that Leng Tingtao and the head of the Jincheng faction didn't believe it either, which was also the reason why she was able to successfully divert her attention before, so this time, she was sure that the other party would not make any moves.
However, did you miscalculate?
For several days in a row, no suspicious person came to the "Jingwen Pavilion" to contact, could it be that this Zhong Shan is really already a Shunmin in his bones, is he a small city lord with peace of mind? Qiu Zhenzhen, who has never seen Zhongshan with his own eyes, is more and more suspicious of this speculation as time goes by, and it may be true.
Bang!
It was the sound of the watchman banging on the bangzi and the gong, it was already late, and many shops on this street had already closed, Qiu Zhenzhen had to turn around and go back to the store, beckoning Li Xianzhu to prepare to close the door to thank customers, at this moment, the watchman happened to pass by "Jingwenju" and threw in a small bag.
Well?
Qiu Zhenzhen was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at the watchman, but the man just turned around and smiled, then continued to move forward, and disappeared into the corner of the street in a blink of an eye. Qiu Zhenzhen hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed the blue cloth bag in her hand, pinched it, it was very soft, opened it and saw that it was full of shavings and wood chips, the material was the same as the wooden tower sent before, she immediately closed the door of the store, spread all the crumbs on the counter, and opened it little by little, until she saw a piece of shavings with words the size of rice grains written on it:
"Next time I buy to Fukang Wood Workshop, find Li Youtang to take charge"
Is this the other party's reply? Qiu Zhenzhen thought for a moment, judging from this shavings, it should be sent by the Zhong family, she has seen this person before, it has always been this person, not someone else impersonating it halfway, if so, the Zhong family's hidden eyeliner in this city is more than he imagined, so what he imagined before, with the help of their power, to investigate the matter of "Wanqing", it is not a big problem.
The result is good, but how to convince them to cooperate with him is a key question. She is going to go to the Fukang Woodware Workshop early tomorrow morning to connect with the other party, but, be careful, she also has to prevent the other party's traps, if she falls into the other party's strategy, she will probably never see Sitian in Luochuan again, thinking of this, she turned around and returned to the inner room, and took out several magic weapons hidden in the secret grid.
That stinky master, it's really not easy to earn his spirit stones!

Lizong, Zhenwu City.
Jiang Feng, who had rested all night, was refreshed, which was also related to the topography of Zhenwu City, the night here was cooler and more comfortable than Luo Chuan, the three of them had breakfast, Jiang Feng took two apprentices, visited many shops he had visited before, increased his experience and knowledge, and gave the two of them ten second-order pieces respectively, and let them choose their own magic weapons, which is not only to improve their strength, but also to let them really examine their own abilities and choose the right magic weapons by themselves.
Previously, Jiang Chengzi had already obtained a second-order magic weapon [Blood Dragon Yuan True Claw] from Jiang Feng, this single glove had the ability to quickly recover from injuries and enhance the operation of spiritual power. This time, he chose a second-order low-grade magic weapon [Seaweed Spirit Pattern Wrench], attribute one [Summoning Spirit], summoning a clump of seaweed that can entangle the opponent for a short time and is difficult to get out of trouble, the opponent's time to get out of trouble is related to the strength realm; attribute two [Xuanmu], which enhances the defensive ability and duration of the wood shield by two percent, which is only effective for characters below the third order; attribute three [Assimilation], under the cover of jungle and wild grass, you can better hide your cultivation and breath.
The grade of this magic weapon is average, and the attributes are average at first glance, but [Summoning Spirit] will trap the opponent for a period of time, for Jiang Chengzi who wants to move and dodge, and cast the "Scarlet Crow" and "Blister Cage", it is still meaningful, he has no melee skills, if he can keep a distance from the opponent at all times, then he is the final winner, as for the other two attributes, although it looks good, but the scope of application is too narrow.
Jiang Zhiwen had previously obtained a second-order mid-grade [Stone Scorpion Hidden Thorn Dagger] from Jiang Feng, attribute one [Scorpion Venom], which poisoned the opponent, paralyzed the meridians, and reduced the movement speed, and had a very poor effect on monks at the Xuan level or above the foundation level; Attribute 3 [Repair] When the damage of this magic weapon is not more than one-third, it can repair itself, and the repair speed is related to the degree of damage, which will take up to three days.
Now, he has selected a second-order mid-grade [Tuyuan Red Scale Armor], with a "divine finger", he pays more attention to the strengthening of his own defense, although the dagger has some damage, but he is affected by Jiang Chengzi, he also does not like melee combat, the key attribute of this magic weapon [Barrier], can allow it to have an earth defense talisman while protecting itself, at most reduce the damage received by 20%.
As for Jiang Yunqi, who was far away in Donghu County, Jiang Feng once again made the decision and selected a second-order mid-grade [Yanlong Feather Spear] for him, although the attributes are average, but the key attribute [Suppression] can enhance the damage of close skills by two percent, I heard that he has learned the family heirloom "Broken Star Spear Technique", presumably this long-handled magic weapon can help him.
The three of them walked around for a day, and when they saw the sun sinking in the west, Jiang Feng returned to the cultivation hall, hid the two of them on his right arm, and went straight to the "Immortal Residence" alone.
On the carriage, Jiang Feng learned some details about the Fang family, they were one of the small families in the formation field of True Martial City, their unique skills were two unique water system spirit gathering arrays, and a kind of earth system mountain protection array, of which the former was its main livelihood, and the latter was not needed by ordinary monks, so they did not have much business, in addition, they also had some subtle unique skills for refining weapons.
In fact, most of the people who participated in the gathering today, whether it was refining, talisman making or formation family, were at this level, and the Fang family could be regarded as one of the three families with better skills and the highest status in this gathering.
Can't afford to mess with it!
If you make everyone unhappy because of the introduction of a person who is "worthless" to the exchange meeting, maybe he will be kicked out of this circle in the future, and he may not be able to get cheap goods from this circle at that time.
"This is Brother Jiang, a collector of magic weapons. "Ansnian's introduction to Jiang Feng is very special," There is a lot of way in the Assayama Sect. The latter sentence was naturally given to him by Jiang Feng. Along the way, after listening to Ansnian's introduction, Jiang Feng added a goal for this trip, in addition to investigating the affairs of the Fang family, he also hoped to make a few friends in the circle, and he might be able to help the refining workshop of the Asshan Sect in the future.
"Oh?" The person who received it was Fang Qingliu, the housekeeper of the Fang family, who couldn't help but squint when he heard this, and looked at Jiang Feng carefully, "Fortunately, fortunately." He bowed his hand, greeted them politely, and invited them into the courtyard.
The courtyard is not big, the breeze blows, the fresh breath of lotus flowers wafts everywhere, the exquisite shape of the palace lamp, it seems to be the soul fire palace lamp reformed, the embedded spirit stone is more, but it is also brighter, under the cover of the special cover, it is so soft that people can't help but calm down.
There are ten tables in the field, there are already a lot of people sitting, opposite is a small stand, about three zhang long, two zhang wide, but there is no trace of preparation for singing and dancing, but put three offering tables, put a lot of spiritual fruits, and a copper tripod of the size of two people hugging, smoke curling.
Who is this for? Could it be that these three skills are dedicated to the same patriarch?
"It is the ancestor of the formation, 'Qingyazi', the first master of the human race to carry forward the formation together. An Sinian noticed Jiang Feng's concern, "Don't look too much, it's taboo for the demon clan to worship the human race, but the three professions of formation, talisman, and refining weapon, everyone agrees that they don't see it, and you can do the same." He explained in a low voice, what he was most afraid of was that Jiang Feng burned incense in the past, after all, not everyone present had this qualification, and if he broke the rules, he would be kicked out.
"I see. Jiang Feng looked left and right, his smile sprinkled in other corners of the neighborhood, but he understood in his heart, why he had never seen this ceremony in the refining workshop, his feelings were not at the level of incense, but he had long insight.
Ansinian led Jiang Feng to sit down, and the businessmen were seated at the two tables in the corner, it can be seen that the status is not high, and Jiang Feng naturally doesn't know a few people on the left, Ansinian introduced them one by one, the circle is different, and the attitude is different, at first glance, these unprofitable businessmen are very good at Jiang Feng in the "Qianshan Sect" The monks were still full of interest, and after a while, several people talked happily with each other, although they had seen the battle of the big family at the Chu family's family banquet, Jiang Feng did not ignore these shrimps, after all, in terms of money, these people are still quite powerful.
Don't choose a trickle.
If some of them can go to the Asayama Sect to do business, it would be excellent. It's just a pity that after receiving a stack of VIP discount cards, Jiang Feng realized that they prefer to think of themselves as a big customer with money in their hands, after all, the first sentence introduced by Ansnian is a magic weapon collector.
Without spirit stones, what hobbies do you talk about?
More and more people came, and the noisy atmosphere made it a little chaotic here, but as the three of them stood up from the chief in turn, the whole courtyard fell silent.
