XXXII. Back to the mountain
There is no need to hide it, Huang Chang put forward his conditions very bluntly. Qin Hu was a little stunned at first glance - the conditions were too good, but it was unbelievable.
After entering the rivers and lakes for such a long time, she knows very well that with her own strength and status. can only be the smallest and weakest bottom of the rivers and lakes. In the past, when I was at home, the elder brother was pampered, and the beautiful life held by the senior brother is long gone. No one treats her differently outside, unless she has ulterior motives - as women, the rivers and lakes are much harsher with them.
But Qin Hu only hesitated a little and then immediately decided to accept it, because this person in front of her was different from others, someone had saved her life, and there was already a great kindness ahead, so there was no need to calculate her. On the contrary, I felt that she was credible and usable, which was the normal way of thinking.
And as a woman, Qin Hu was able to persist in the treacherous rivers and lakes for so long without being swallowed up, also because her judgment has always been very accurate - which people are really willing to help her, and which ones are malicious, although she can't see it, she can always feel something faintly. Several times she followed this feeling, thus avoiding the trap that was specifically aimed at her - at that time, when faced with the temptation of the ghost that the senior brother and many junior disciples had become, although she hesitated, she also bought herself some time, and finally delayed until the help arrived, which shows that this is also a kind of talent.
Now Qin Hu is very sure that this opportunity is real, and he must seize it! Being able to advance to the innate cultivation method is naturally extremely precious to ordinary casual cultivation, but in the eyes of the disciples of the Kunlun Sect, it is not remarkable. This point, Qin Hu, who has been mixed with the Kunlun Lower Courtyard for more than a year, is of course the most aware of this - exercises, talismans, pills and talismans, which is the core attraction of the Kunlun Lower Courtyard here that is so popular with loose cultivators. Those loose cultivators and martial artists are desperately trying to complete the task for Kunlun, hoping to exchange their merits for such praise.
Qin Hu has also fantasized many times that he will hit a big luck one day and happen to complete a Kunlun mission in exchange for a martial art. It's just that I haven't bumped into it, and I can't imagine that the opportunity should be here.
"Okay, I do!"
The girl immediately gave an answer, Huang Chang nodded, but suddenly glanced back at Huang Zhao - most of the exercises taught to Qin Hu at that time were the same as his own little sister, and Huang Zhao had always been lazy, this time she found a reference object for learning and comparison, and she was embarrassed to fish for three days and dry her nets for two days.
Huang Zhao didn't know what his brother was thinking, but he suddenly shivered, and felt a little chill on his body.
After the discussion was decided, Qin Hu immediately went to pick up his luggage, mainly because of the "large number" of cultivation materials he had saved in the past six months—in fact, it was just a small package, and he easily carried it on his back. It's just rats, bats, and other little demon spirits—people give them away, and they hope that there are some good things. Of course, for a little samurai who is not born with it, these things can be regarded as a great tonic.
Ji Ruo's eyes showed sympathy again, but he didn't say it. The group returned to the outside through the teleportation array and settled in a rented hut in the town. Chen Shi, the little shopkeeper, immediately took office, and soon put out the signboard of "Huang's Shop" and officially opened for business.
And Qin Hu acted as a guard here, in fact, this shop didn't need any guards, and she couldn't protect anyone with her current skills. But Qin Hu has been here for more than a year, and he is familiar with the situation, and with her with him, it is easy for Chen Shi to gain a foothold in the local area.
And Huang Chang also spoke well, and immediately taught the early martial arts part of "Sword Sealing Demon Record" to Qin Hu, and asked her to practice first. The spiritual resources needed can be temporarily borrowed from the store, and they will be repaid with spirit stones or merits in the future—those that Qin Hu has saved by herself alone are far from enough for her to advance to the innate level. But if she is not innate, the role she can play on Huang Chang's side is very limited, and she can't even drive the most basic charms, so she can only invest first.
As for what to do if Qin Hu ran away after getting the benefits, Huang Chang was not very worried about this - since this girl had been here for more than a year, what it meant to Kunlun disciples was definitely clearer than most Jianghu people. When she was rescued, this girl's actions proved that she was not a fool, and she must not be more confused now.
............
The Huang family shop is newly opened, and it is necessary to engage in some preferential activities. And the few fist products that Huang Chang took out, such as the Aoki rune shield, the bursting talisman arrow, and the latest product talisman jade talisman, etc., are very simple and easy to use, and the effect is also immediate. Coupled with the signboard of Kunlun's disciples, Bai Hongyuan and other senior brothers, the Huang family shop has only been open for a day or two, and a large number of goods have been exchanged.
Not only did seven or eight out of ten of the prey brought out of the cross-border space enter the Huang family shop this time, but there were even a few shops and many casual cultivators who did business in exchange for their inventory - the purpose of these casual cultivators was to improve their own strength, and the goods in the Huang family shop could do this immediately, and they naturally did it at any cost.
- This is because the goods of the Huang family's shop cannot be purchased directly with spirit stones, and can only be exchanged for immortal cultivation resources, otherwise it is estimated that the goods in the shop will be directly emptied. Fortunately, Huang Chang had already anticipated this, and deliberately stipulated that the spirit stone at the current stage was only used as a bargaining unit, and at most it was only used to make up for some price differences. In order to maintain the availability of goods in the store at all times, rather than selling out quickly like those small vendors.
The acquisition was very successful, and the original plan was to be led by Huang Chang himself, together with Li Zhai and others, to safely escort the first batch of goods back to Hojing, which can be regarded as completing the development of this trade route. But now there is a little change - after being taught a lesson by Uncle Lingxuzi, Huang Chang wondered if he should go back to Kunlun. There was a flying boat coming back to the mountain on this side of the lower courtyard, and he could take a boat with a tailwind.
"If you think I should go back to the mountain as soon as possible?"
Huang Chang asked Ji Ruo a question, but the latter ignored him at all, and turned around with a red face - Huang Chang returned to the mountain this time in addition to meeting his master, according to Lingxuzi's suggestion, he also had to go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to find and exchange the double cultivation exercises, Ji Ruo must be embarrassed to respond.
But even if Ji Ruo didn't speak, Huang Chang could clearly feel her emotions - of course the girl wanted him to go in her heart, and she was in a hurry. Knowing that his little girlfriend is thin-skinned, there is no need to say it to make her embarrassed. Huang Chang made a direct decision:
"Then I'll go back to the mountain first, and then go straight back to Longshouyuan. The return route will be handed over to you and Li Zhai, no problem, right?"
This time, Ji Ruo nodded very confidently - from Qinshan County to Ho Capital, they all belong to the hinterland of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there are many caravans, there has always been no danger, and it is enough to have two mid-stage monks to accompany them. In fact, according to the plan of the Shengyang Monarch's Mansion, it would be enough to hire a few mortal warriors to ensure safety.
As for those who know the inside of the caravan and come to rob it, it is to offend both the Kunlun faction and the Ji royal family at the same time, and in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, it is estimated that there is no such bold guy.
Therefore, Huang Chang gave a little advice, and then took the Zongmen flying boat and headed towards Kunlun.
