Chapter 256: Thinking about the origin
Xiao Mingbao's condition is very bad, the phase splitting technique checked, the lingering black gas has dissolved most of the coral phase, if you don't rescue it in time, I'm afraid that you will fall next year, but this person is also lucky, he can be immortalized by the black gas, in addition to relying on the family pill to continue his life, there must be something strange, thinking of this, Jiang Feng couldn't help but think of Jiang Kaiji mentioned by Shen Junmao, the town guard of Dayi County, could it be that this person is the same as Xiao Mingbao, the law phase is eroded by the abnormality and does not die? And then get an adventure, be instigated by the true spirit sage, and go to the Northern Wilderness?
No, thinking of the "shadow" that he has been with for many years, maybe he is a bright example of "surviving and getting adventures", but the time point when he got the "shadow" was just earlier.
If Xiao Mingbao can get through, it may be another opportunity, but obviously, he can't.
Jiang Feng carefully settled the two, instructed Jiang Hai to take care of it, and went out to invite Qiu Nanjia alone, but met Ansi Nian, who helped with the restaurant.
"Brother Jiang," his title changed, revealing a delicate and philistine smile, and gave a thumbs up, "I think I borrowed your light and got a lot of shade from the Xiao family, you are different, you want to be the son-in-law of the Xiao family, and I have to bother you to take care of it more in the future!"
"You're mistaken. β
"Where, I understand this, I understand it, low-key, this is much better than the girl from the Shangguan family, and I heard that the girl from the Shangguan family has already confirmed the marriage date with the six young people of the Chu family, you have to be careful recently, don't provoke it." β
"Don't worry, I know it. β
Jiang Feng didn't want to entangle with him too much, and explained too much, but instead increased his attention, helping Xiao Mingbao solve the law problem itself was a confidential matter, if it weren't for Qiu Nanjia's request not to enter the Xiao Mansion, Jiang Feng would definitely choose the more concealed Xiao family to deal with this matter, thinking of this joint, he gave An Sinian an extra sentence, "I came here, you have to keep it secret for me." β
"That's natural! I'll arrange it, around your room, I won't arrange anyone to stay in today. β
Ansi Nian was obviously wrong, and accompanied Jiang Feng out of the door with a smile, and saw him go away, only then did he sigh a few secretly, people can't be compared, it's better to marry a wife too early, and being bold enough to cook a mature meal as soon as possible is the king.
............
Jincheng School, Lelin City, Kong Er Old Street, Jingwen Pavilion Shop.
Qiu Zhen was really taking care of mundane affairs, and he was dealing with the accounts that were not in and out of many ways, but suddenly heard a commotion. was about to go out to check, but the guy Li Xianzhu welcomed in three guests.
The leader was a woman, with a thin body, short hair, and a fairly well-dressed person, and two coarse cloth men behind her, the three of them were not dressed like normal guests, but more like they came to visit.
"The shopkeeper, this is the new shopkeeper of the 'Xiangtanju' on the corner of the street, who just came the day before yesterday and came to visit the neighbors today. β
Oh?
Qiu Zhen really knew this etiquette, and when she came here, she also brought a bunch of small gifts to visit all the shops on this street one by one, and now, as the "old man" here, it is also her turn to be visited.
"Harmony makes money!" Qiu Zhenzhen saluted as usual, said a high-sounding clichΓ©, and saw that the other party was a woman, so she held the other party's hand, and her hand was slightly cold, she glanced at it secretly, this is the monk's hand.
"Harmony makes money!"
The other party was prepared, and motioned to the guy behind him with his eyes, and asked him to present a small gift with a beautiful package, "My sister is famous Lin Qingwan, and in the future, I hope that my sister will take care of her business." β
"Where, where, it's right to help each other, my surname is Hu, I'm older than you, you can just call me Sister Jinxiu in the future." Qiu Zhenzhen let go of the other party's hand, pretending to look at the other party with admiration, and at the same time said her fake name, from the other party's unusually bright eyes, she read that the other party was also lying, it seems that this is a character with a background.
The two exchanged politeness again, Qiu Zhenzhen sent Lin Qingwan out of the store with a smile, and when he saw her enter another store, he called Li Xianzhu and Zhou Daxiang, "You two, when you go to inquire about the news, try not to go to this place." β
"Something?" The two of them were told like this for more than the first time, knowing that Qiu Zhenzhen seemed to see something abnormal.
"That look doesn't look like a businessman, the eyes of a businessman should be gold, silver and spirit stones. Be like me. Qiu Zhenzhen blinked, his eyes became slightly cloudy, but he looked more amiable.
"Shopkeeper, don't act. Zhou Daxiang couldn't help laughing, "You are not the same as the shopkeepers of those shops, there is still a lot of difference, how to say it, there is a lack of dislike for the poor." β
"You know a lot!"
Qiu Zhenzhen glared at him, "Remember my words, don't provoke them yet, but the guys in her shop, you can keep an eye on them secretly and see what they do, including what kind of goods they handle." β
Dismissed the two, Qiu Zhenzhen's heart became even more disturbed, and he played casually, thinking about the origin of the other party in his heart, this Lin Qing came here at night, is it the same as his own purpose?
............
Zhenwu City, Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
As soon as the left envoy Qiu Nanjia entered the guest room that Jiang Feng had set, he met Xiao Mingzhen's scrutinizing gaze. In order to keep a low profile, when Qiu Nanjia traveled, she vaguely used a special magic weapon to cover up her cultivation, which made her look more like a monk in the middle of the Xuan level.
The two good-looking women with their own merits looked at each other like this, thinking about each other's origins, until Xiao Mingzhen opened his mouth first, "You are Yan Shujia, right?"
Well?
Jiang Feng, who was standing behind Qiu Nanjia, was suddenly speechless, due to Qiu Nanjia's request, he couldn't introduce him to Xiao Mingzhen, and for the safety of both parties, he didn't plan to introduce Xiao Mingzhen to Qiu Nanjia, but what he didn't expect was how Xiao Mingzhen said Yan Shujia's name.
In this way, just now she took the opportunity to touch herself, and what she heard turned out to be the residual thoughts related to Yan Shujia, and she didn't know whether the secret of Gu Bao was also snooped on by her at the same time, and in the midst of the thoughts, he realized that he still had to solve the embarrassment in front of him first.
Yan Shujia, a Jindan female cultivator of the Qi Kingdom, Qiu Nanjia knew that although Jiang Feng knew that the Spirit Cage Chamber of Commerce had not taken the formal way to enter the Fury Wind Canyon, they who had intersected with many monks in the valley must have known everyone on the list. From Qiu Nanjia's suspicious gaze, Jiang Feng knew that she had also misunderstood.
"Well, you're mistaken. In the case that it was inconvenient to reveal the identity of either party, Jiang Feng could only explain to Xiao Mingzhen first, "This is the Taoist friend I invited to help." β
"Oh, do you have so many female Taoist friends who are willing to help you for free?" Qiu Nanjia covered up her cultivation, so Xiao Mingzhen was not afraid, "I underestimated you." She deliberately accentuated the word "gratuitous", and a little sourly got out of the way and let the two of them into the room.
"You and Yan Shujia, what's the situation?" Before Jiang Feng could explain clearly, Qiu Nanjia also looked at Jiang Feng curiously, this plain and cold woman showed a gossipy look for the first time.
"Nothing, just the occasional mention, the occasional mention. I've talked about some things in the canyon before, and I just mentioned it in passing. Jiang Feng was talking nonsense, for fear of revealing his feet, but fortunately, Qiu Nanjia was not Yu Xiaoman, otherwise this clue would be enough for the other party to find out what was going on.
"Canyon?" Xiao Mingzhen's eyes lit up, "By the way, I heard that you went to the canyon and came back to tell me about it." Xiao Mingzhen deliberately did not cooperate, and exposed Jiang Feng's lie on the spot, and then his eyes lit up, and he looked at Qiu Nanjia with hostility, "The canyon ruins you went to with her?"
"Forehead ......"
Jiang Feng was speechless again, if you want to say that you go together, the two are indeed not together, if you want to say that they are not together, the two did meet in the valley and get acquainted because of this. In short, no matter how you answer, it's a pit. He really wanted to say "not what you understand", but suddenly realized that it would lead to more conversations.
Thinking of this, he quickly stopped Qiu Nanjia, who wanted to continue gossiping and saying something in the same way, "Today, let's do business first, time is limited, and it is important to save people." He hurriedly took out the jade pill that sealed the spirit from the storage bag, handed it to Qiu Nanjia, and motioned for her to hurry up, if the two of them were allowed to talk like this, Jiang Feng thought to himself that it would be difficult to keep Yan Shujia's secret without introducing the identities of both parties.
The secret of his acquaintance with Yan Shujia was exposed, which was good for him, but for Yan Shujia, if he had something to do with a demon man, once it reached the Qi country, although the probability was not large, sometimes the circle of monks was very small, and it would definitely cause her a lot of trouble.
The main problem is that neither of them has the means to hide their scheming, and they can't afford to probe their souls, and when the time comes, I am afraid that the secrets of the Ancient Treasure Tower of Eternity will be discovered, which will lead to unstoppable risks.
"Okay!" Qiu Nanjia glanced at Jiang Feng meaningfully, "You all go out." β
"This ......"
Xiao Mingzhen was a little hesitant, he was the guarantor in the Xiao family, if something happened to Xiao Mingbao halfway, he was afraid that he would also have a lot of trouble.
"Trust her. β
Up to now, Jiang Feng can only trust Qiu Nanjia, although he doesn't have much contact, but this person likes to say everything clearly, and he shouldn't play any tricks.
Well?
"Can you trust you so much, you are not ordinary Taoist friends, right?" As soon as he got out of the room, Xiao Mingzhen's eyes widened, and his eyes when he looked at Jiang Feng also changed, and his hand involuntarily wanted to grab Jiang Feng, the movements of the two were a little ambiguous, and Jiang Hai, who was waiting on the side, pretended to have pain in his abdomen, retreated carefully, and left the space for the two of them in time.
Jiang Feng was shocked instead.
Hurriedly took a few steps back, "It's just an ordinary friend, and we have some cooperation with the Asa Mountain Sect." Jiang Feng still explained one more sentence, otherwise Xiao Mingzhen, who was overly curious, would really find out an unusual secret if he probed himself again. He vaguely guessed that Xiao Mingzhen hadn't found out about the Ancient Treasure Tower of Eternity, otherwise what she was interested in now would not be Yan Shujia, but Gu Bao.
Knowing the secret of Gu Bao is also a risk in itself, for Xiao Mingzhen, who has been promoted to the Xuan level with the help of family strength, she must lack experience in dealing with it in this regard, and it is better to not know. Thinking of this, Jiang Feng paid more attention to the distance between himself and Xiao Mingzhen, and Xiao Mingzhen's little brows furrowed.
"Come here, or I won't lend you spirit stones. "Without the maid here, she is back to her true colors today.
"I'm for your good. β
"Don't worry, I have a way to avoid soul searches. As soon as she finished speaking, there was a light-colored and crystalline halo on her body, and the halo flashed a few times before dissipating into nothingness.
"You shouldn't have told me these secrets. Although Jiang Feng was touched by Xiao Ming's true straightforwardness, he still wanted to warn her, "The fewer people who know about this magical method, the better." β
"Hmph, of course I do. Unlike some people. Xiao Ming is really a little arrogant, "It's just a pity, in order to keep this secret, Ping Su has to pretend to have a skill that has not yet been learned, and pay attention to the news about the skill book." β
"You're all done?"
"yes. β
Xiao Mingzhen leaned against the wall, clasped his hands to his chest, and sighed, "Tianluo Fengqing Dance occupies one skill, and I only have one skill position left, so I learned a gold spell body, in the monk battle array, I can't expect someone to protect me all the time in the chaos, so I still need some means." With the original 'Soul Warming Touch' skill and the 'No Distractions' skill you saw, I've already learned four, but these two skills can't be exposed at will, so this matter is very troublesome. Speaking of which, she was slightly depressed.
"Advancing to the ground level early is also a solution. Jiang Feng comforted, and immediately felt that this suggestion was not reliable, although Xiao Mingzhen's law "Guluo Bronze Bell" was not bad, but he was not good at fighting, and it was also difficult to gain experience by fighting with others, with the support of family resources, it was not difficult to be promoted to the Xuan-level level, but in the future, it would become even more difficult when a lot of combat experience and understanding were needed.
Of course, Jiang Feng is not out of the question, the Horcrux in his hand can just solve Xiao Mingzhen's problem. The gold and jade earrings, obtained from Xiao Mingzhen, have not been returned.
However, holding such a secret Horcrux, is it safe for Xiao Mingzhen, think about it now that she has that white halo-like "no distractions" skill, she can avoid being detected by the soul, from this point of view, if she is unwilling to take the initiative to reveal the secret, she can be safe.
It's just that the gold and jade earrings are an auxiliary 'Bagua Little Spirit Array', if it is useful for it, or the turquoise necklace with the 'Silver Feather Arrow' is more reliable, the problem is that the turquoise necklace is Yu Xiaoman's, which is a bit embarrassing.
was in a dilemma about this, only to hear Xiao Mingzhen continue to complain, "I know that I need to practice, but after learning the 'Tianluo Wind Dance', the family will have more resources, but it can't easily leave the Li Sect, and there are not many opportunities for the monks to dispatch in the battle array." Therefore, this aspect has fallen behind. Speaking of this, she immediately remembered Xiao Mingshan, who could freely go to various sects to practice, and her cultivation seemed to have improved recently, and her eyes couldn't help but be a little darker.
"There are other ways. β
"Yes, maybe, who knows?" Xiao Mingzhen's hand suddenly put on Jiang Feng's arm, and inadvertently, she had already approached Jiang Feng again in the gap of complaining.
"You"
"Don't worry, I didn't use skills this time, I scared you, haha!" Xiao Mingzhen's face turned clear instantly, and she smiled happily, and this fun instantly dispelled the haze in her heart.
No, how can I admit defeat and lose to Xiao Mingshan! A stubborn cry sounded in her heart, and a vibrant and optimistic look appeared in her eyes again, and the opportunity to surpass the other party appeared in her mind, so she let go of Jiang Feng, who was still struggling quietly.
"I need your help with something, if you can help me, I can consider lending you sixty third-order spirit stones without your mortgage. β
