Chapter 522: Be Careful
Golden Shell Jade Neon Dragon Lizard.
Third-order demon beasts, adults have a probability of being promoted, and they can cast "Flame Thunder" ,Bombardment targets within ten zhang in front of the body,The effect is between the third-order and fourth-order golden light runes,The power is average;Variable form,Covering the surface of the monk's body,There is no conflict with other magic weapons,During the wrapping period, it can be integrated with the surrounding environment,It is not easy to be detected,It can avoid the ordinary prying eyes of ordinary pseudo-heaven-level monks of the same level,During the wrapping period,It can absorb attacks outside the fire system,And gather on the scales,Accumulate to a certain number,The scales will fall off,If there are more than eight,The wrapping and concealment effects will be automatically liftedγ Scales can be used as auxiliary materials for refining, and there is a chance to increase the effect of "Jade Ni" and increase the effect of stealth skills attached to the magic weapon itself, but it can only be effective if it is added when refining the weapon.
"Can this demon beast hide in the water?" this question is what Jiang Feng is most concerned about, but there is no record in the atlas, imagine that if there is a scuffle, most of it will occur at the edge of the Sea of Fog, or in the Qianlong Bay area, there is water in all directions, and the best hiding place is of course in the water, although with the help of the Ancient Treasure Tower of Eternity, Jiang Feng already has some fighting ability, but he is not arrogant enough to think that he can be entangled with a group of pseudo-heaven and Yuanying cultivators.
"It can last for half an hour, and the water nature of the dragon lizard is not good. "The shopkeeper knows a lot about this.
It's a little shorter, but during the dragon lizard's wrapping, there is no restriction on movement, and it should be enough to stay away from the center of the battlefield and escape to an unnoticeable position, unless someone locks him in the first place, of course, this possibility is not small, but there is also the means provided by Cai Qiuzhen to continue, it should not be a big problem.
"Can the cost be negotiated?" The rental fee for seven days and a half fourth-order is admittedly expensive, although Jiang Feng is a little painful, it is not unacceptable.
"No, if your Excellency rents a demon beast in my Lingxiang Residence for the second time, you can get a nine-percent discount, and besides, half a fourth-order for seven days is just a rental fee, in order to avoid unnecessary losses, you need to pay a deposit of two fourth-order pieces. β
It's so expensive, are you sure you're not robbing money? Jiang Feng almost shouted, but he still pinched his palm, alleviating the discomfort in his heart, although there are twenty-six kinds of demon beasts on the roster, this one is indeed the most suitable one, but paying so much deposit is indeed not in his preset, "Are there any other conditions?"
"If there are scales generated during use, we can pay five third-order recovery pieces for each scale. In addition, the owner of the monster needs to meet with you before renting. β
"Still have an interview?"
"Yes. In this roster, there are six kinds of demon beasts provided by this senior, and he can be regarded as our largest source of supply, so we can't refuse the additional conditions he proposed. β
"Who is the owner of the monster?"
"We can only reveal his cultivation, the middle stage of Jindan, and the other thing, he is a monk of Tianlimen. β
Tianlimon...... Jiang Feng was shocked in his heart, where is it bad, it is Tianli Gate, it is really a narrow road, not to mention, Tianli Men has always disliked the demon clan monks, this business, most of them can't be done.
"Your Excellency, although the owner of this demon beast is from the Tianli Sect, he is not as prejudiced against the demon clan as ordinary Tianli Sect monks. As if seeing Jiang Feng's hidden worries, the white-bearded shopkeeper couldn't help but explain, "Moreover, he doesn't hold an important position in the sect. β
In this way, you can also talk about it, but he still has a few grudges with Tianlimen, I don't know if it will have some impact on this matter, thinking of this, he glanced at the roster again, and confirmed that this demon beast is not suitable for him, before he spoke, "What time, what place, how do you usually arrange it?"
"The time is chosen by the other party, according to past experience, it is generally seven days later, and the location is chosen by you, but it cannot be in Qi country. Also, we need to know who you are in order to report back to them. β
Is it necessary to reveal the identity as well, "This is a must?"
"That's right. This is also the rule set by the other party, distinguished guest, I must explain this, although the owner of this demon beast does not hold an important public office, but in Tianlimen, he is also one of the best talents, so he is also worried about becoming the target of the enemy of Tianlimen, so it is reasonable to be so careful. Of course, if you refuse, we can also recommend similar monsters to you, which we should be able to do if you are not so picky about time. β
"Can this monk be surnamed Zhou, or surnamed Ma?"
"No, it's neither, you're worried. Seeing that Jiang Feng had been entangled on this topic for a long time, the white-bearded shopkeeper deliberately retreated left and right, and made a note, although it was not advanced, but it was also enough to show respect.
"In Xia Xi, he is the head of the Qianshan Sect, and Jiang Feng is also. β
"Disrespectful, disrespectful. The shopkeeper, who had a modest attitude, looked more respectful, "Please take a seat!"
Hmm, the head of a small sect of mine, why should I pay so much attention to it, Jiang Feng couldn't help but be surprised in his heart, but he heard the white-bearded shopkeeper say, "Why didn't you say it earlier, I will treat it lightly, please forgive me." β
"You're welcome. β
"The Jincheng Alliance, where your sect is located, defeated the alliance of the three sects of the Southern Tianyin Temple, has recently spread all over the North Continent, and when we heard about it, we originally felt that we had no chance to visit, but now we can see it, and it is a blessing. β
"So, can the deposit be waived?" Jiang Feng knew that this was a businessman in front of him, and when dealing with businessmen, talking about money was the easiest way to distinguish the real from the fake.
"This is really embarrassing for the old man. The white-bearded shopkeeper really showed his feet at all, but the smile was still on his face, "The power is really limited, but I can report to the top and apply for one or two for the head of Jiang, but there is one thing, if the head of Jiang can be accommodating, I think there is still a lot of hope."
Target. β
"On what terms?"
"Our Ling Xiangju intends to open a branch near your sect's Dongting Town, if we can accommodate one or two, I think it shouldn't be a problem to waive the deposit, and we can also get a seven-fold discount on the business of 'Golden Shell Jade Neon Dragon Lizard'. β
It turned out to be only a seven-fold ...... It seems that although the Assayama Sect attaches great importance to it, it has not yet reached the level of stammering, if it is the head of the Li Sect, maybe this business will be completely free, Jiang Feng chuckled lightly in his heart, and said in his heart Fortunately, I am self-aware, and I was not confused by your clever words.
"What are the conditions? If it's just to open a branch, the Assayama Sect has rules, and although the conditions are poor, our land lease price has always been the lowest around. β
"We will pay the lease fee as usual and pay taxes according to the operation of the shop, but we hope to lease an additional piece of land with a larger area as a paddock for domesticated monsters, and if it is convenient, it can be zoned as a restricted area. β
"What about the hired people?"
"We will raise the personnel ourselves, because there are some secrets involved, so we can't hire monks from other sects, please forgive me. β
In this way, there is only the cost of the lease and the tax revenue account of the shop, and there seems to be no benefit to increasing employment in the sect, or in other words, it is only good for himself as the head of the family, which sounds more like some kind of bribery, of course, Jiang Feng has the ability to promote this matter, just like promising to provide Cai Qiuzhen with spiritual land and try to make a spiritual ruin, but the two have obvious differences in effect, the latter will provide several opportunities for the sect to try the spiritual ruins, while the former, in addition to the income of the spirit stones, has no foreseeable benefits.
"How much land do you want to lease?"
"For 40,000 acres of wasteland, we can provide a rent of twenty-four third-order pieces per year, which is two percent higher than the rental price set by your sect. β
It is indeed high, but the area of wasteland leased by individuals is clearly agreed within the sect, and it will not exceed 200 acres, even if it is applied in the name of the Chamber of Commerce, it will not exceed 2,000 acres, which is also to avoid people hoarding and harming people's livelihood. And this amount, Jiang Feng estimated in his heart, it was about a quarter of the available land around Dongting Town, but it had to be demarcated as a forbidden area, so that there would be no benefit to the livelihood of the monks and ordinary people in the sect, although the more income in the sect, the better, but after excavating the spiritual veins near Dongting Town, the situation had been improved, and at this time, it was more important to consider a long-term development strategy. Thinking of this, Jiang Feng had already rejected the other party's request in his heart.
"This is a big matter, and I think I need to discuss it with the elders of the sect. β
"That's natural, but if it's convenient, I hope you can give us an answer within a month, because the neighboring Huanglong Sect Yanlin City, we are also in negotiation. β
"Dongting Town is located at the intersection of the four sects, obviously it is more suitable for Ling Xiangju, right?" Jiang Feng knew that he was bargaining with Yanlin City, and the Huanglong Sect was indeed short of money, but this price and conditions, it is estimated that Zuo Zician would not accept it, the forbidden area, and the water could not be splashed, wouldn't it be equivalent to spending a small amount of spirit stones to create an unconstrained small sect?
"What Jiang Zhangmen said is very true, Dongting Town is indeed the top choice, so we are still considering it. β
"Since you have taken a fancy to Dongting Town, how about making an appointment with this Tianli Sect monk in Dongting Town? I think he shouldn't be afraid of our small sect, right?"
"I don't think so. The white-bearded shopkeeper handed over a famous post, "This is my famous post, if there are no other changes, in seven days, I will accompany this Tianlimen senior to visit Dongting Town." β
"Good. Jiang Feng took the name post, and saw that the name of the other party was written above, Kang Daxin, Ling Xiang was the first class shopkeeper, and the chief person in charge of the Lizong region.
It seems that this guy can also make some decisions in major matters, and 40,000 acres of wasteland is not impossible to approve, but at the moment, this condition should be useless. Twenty-four third-order, maybe he would accept it without hesitation when he first became the leader, but now he obviously can't impress himself.
As for the mysterious Tianli Sect monk, he planned to be cautious about approaching it, after all, this "Golden Shell Jade Neon Dragon Lizard", if it could be successfully rented, would still be of great help to his party in the Whale Sea Islands, although it was not perfect.
............
Southwest of Nanyuan Zong, Yuhua Cape.
This place has always been Wei Yanqiu's hermitage, although there is already a worship sect, but she has never been willing to leave this place, although this is faintly contrary to the rule of "where the nine elders are born, you can't take care of it yourself", but Wei Yanqiu has never interfered in any affairs of the Nanyuan Sect, so as one of the nine old men, no one has questioned her flaw.
On the other hand, Yuhua Cape is really not big, it only occupies seventy or eighty acres in size, and there is only a second-order spiritual land, which is also pitiful. On this day, a mysterious guest came here, and after talking for a long time, he left.
"It's a simple collaboration, but it's a time to gain mutual trust. β
The figures on the ancient mirror on the desk were the four monks who were familiar with Wei Yanqiu, two Yuan Infants, and two Pseudo-Heavens, if Xu Deyang, the head of the Ruijin Sect, happened to be present, he should have no trouble recognizing that the latter two were Luo Junji, the head of the Covering Sea Gate, and Ling Zhiyun, the head of the Imperial Wind Sect.
"Luo Daoyou and I originally intended to compete for this Heavenly Dao, I think even if we can't get it, we will prevent them from getting it, this is not a conflict. But in this way, will it cause the people behind them to take action?" said one of the Yuan Babies worriedly.
"There's no need to worry about that, according to the rules, we can't make a move, and I'll watch from the sidelines, and if they make a move or exert influence, I'll do my best to stop it
Stop. β
"With your words, we are relieved. β
"Although my question may be a bit redundant, is the person who came really Qi Boyuan's envoy?" asked Ling Zhiyun.
"To be precise, it's Ma Zhiyuan's subordinates, but it's the same. Wei Yanqiu explained impatiently, she knew that these joints were very important to these four "subordinates" who were not considered subordinates.
In fact, she was really skeptical about the identity of the visitor, after all, the two sides had never cooperated in the real sense in the past. She also confirmed the identity of the other party through her own methods. As for the fact that there has never been an intersection, on the one hand, it is because the time he has been in the ninth old man is too short and his seat is not high, and on the other hand, he has never thought of joining any of the three forces.
Chief Li Zhenlong, Lu Donglai, and Xu Funing's side was originally in a transcendent position, but after Lu Donglai came to Tianyuan Nanlu, the strength of this camp declined a little, and was even faintly surpassed by Qi Boyuan and Ma Zhiyuan's side, especially after Ning Liheng, who had been promoted to a half-saint but had not yet entered the Nine Old Men, joined, the strength of this camp was further strengthened, of course, they have suffered a lot of losses on the issue of the three sects of Wei recently, which is also Jin Shengxi, Song Xianghong, Qingyu and Liu Tingjian did the ghost, and it was done with the acquiescence and even secret instigation of the chief Li Zhenlong. As for herself, she originally wanted to be a firm wall-riding faction with Liu Tingjian, Lu Zhimian and Zhu Qianmu, but the fact that Zhu Qianmu was surrounded and killed by several factions really shocked her, but fortunately, she was already ranked as the ninth old man, and this kind of thing had never happened in the past.
But that doesn't mean it won't happen in the future.
Lu Zhimian said that he was a wall-riding faction, but he was quite friendly with Qi Boyuan's faction, and his relationship with the chief was also acceptable, while Liu Tingjian was friendly with Jin Shengxi's faction.
However, now someone took the initiative to come over to show goodwill, which somewhat catered to her mind, although ideally, Jin Shengxi's faction was better, but on the one hand, because of the Qing Yuzong Wan Yu Pavilion, she was quite resistant in her heart, and on the other hand, since Qi Boyuan took the initiative, the situation should be more favorable to herself, thinking that they who have suffered a secret loss recently, they should be able to pay more attention to their own joining, thinking about this, Wei Yanqiu's eyes became more and more determined.
"Act according to the plan, the monks on Li Zhenlong's side, you only need to interfere, and Jin Shengxi's side can directly snatch it, but I personally hope that you can get it, as for the method to prevent the side effects of this Heavenly Dao, I will provide it to you in time. β
"Yes!"
Those figures immediately dissipated, the ancient mirror was suddenly blurred, and the dense water droplets condensed, converging into three or four water lines and flowing down, at this time, Wei Yanqiu's figure dissipated abruptly, and after a while, he returned to his underwater Dao Palace.
"You're back?"
"Yes. A figure immediately condensed opposite Wei Yanqiu, it was Lu Donglai who had returned from Tianyuan Nanlu.
"Can the matter be resolved?"
"I got what I should have gotten, but I still haven't gotten what I shouldn't. β
"What did the Chief say?"
"The chief is satisfied. β
"So when is he going to take it a step further?"
"That's his business, although the source spirit hasn't been gathered yet, but I've already completed the request. Lu Donglai sat down, his body was full of aura, and several magic weapons poured out of his body, "You can choose one, although the pattern of Tianyuan Southern Continent is not as good as that of Northern Continent, but the refining method is much stronger than Northern Continent." β
"You want to use the magic weapon to repay the favor owed to me?"
"I didn't think so. β
"Then you can do one thing for me. In fact, among the nine old men, although Lu Donglai followed Li Zhenlong, he has always been a person who keeps promises, Wei Yanqiu knows that this is the way he abides by, once it deviates, the foundation of his cultivation no longer exists.
"I can't do anything unfavorable to the chief, and besides, after I left the Hokuriku, all the support has been dissipated, and they now have a new master, and the other is that the Qibo Yuan City Mansion is extremely deep, you have to be careful to contact it, and don't get caught up in the situation. β
"I'll be careful, as for manpower, I'm sure you have a way. β
"I can only target Kim Sung-hee's people, but in this way, I owe him. Maybe one day, he'll let me deal with you, too. β
"Opportunities are rare. β
"I see, there is a pre-departure to go. Lu Dong took a brilliant magic weapon in his hand, threw it over, and then got up and dissipated into an invisible gray mist.
............
Jiang Feng arrived in Dongji City and sent a letter to ask to see his cheap father-in-law, Bai Shiduo, who happened to be absent, but the housekeeper was very enthusiastic and invited him to walk around the back garden.
"The head of the house has already explained, and he has prepared a gift for you in the back garden. β
"Gift?" Jiang Feng couldn't help but doubt Bai Shiduo's intentions, but seeing that the housekeeper was smiling sincerely, he didn't care, so he strolled around the back garden casually.
The garden was full of spring, but he never found anything, and when he was hesitating, he felt a mysterious breath wafting over, and when he looked at it again, it was a woman in white, and the back of her figure was somewhat similar to the dead Bai Ruoxi.
How to dress like this, scared me, Jiang Feng was about to retreat to avoid suspicion, but when he saw the woman turn her head and smile, Jiang Feng was shocked again, not only with the back image, but also with the same appearance.
"You're Jiang Feng, right? I've heard of you. β
