Chapter 250: Building Momentum
The reason why Dao Yunchu didn't say anything all the way was to guard against the inexplicable sense of peeping. He couldn't tell for a moment where this feeling came from.
"The Baixiao family is really not simple, and it is strange to say, I don't know why the old man has a sense of familiarity. The Taoist was sure that he had never been here, and that feeling of dΓ©jΓ vu had been haunting his heart.
"Maybe it's because the master's formation attainments are superb, and when he sees the formation of the Baixiao family, he is itchy and can't forget it, so he will have a sense of familiarity. β
"Formation, formationγ...... I see. Lao Dao kept muttering to himself, and suddenly his eyes lit up, as if he had found the problem. There are too many strange things about this Baixiao family, and he has decided in his heart that he will make a special trip in the future.
"Master, was the disciple guessed correctly?" Huo Yingjun was secretly proud, he finally guessed what the master was thinking.
"You guessed wrong, but you reminded the old man. As soon as Dao Yunchu's words came out, it was equivalent to a basin of cold water poured on the head of the Huo family's son, and it immediately wilted.
"Okay, since you have left the Baixiao family's sphere of influence, don't dwell on this matter. Dao Yun had a plan at the beginning, and then ended the relevant topic.
"Master, this place is very familiar, there is a century-old shop in front of me, I don't know if it's still there. Their meals are not only sweet and delicious, but also have local specialty flower cakes. Bai Qingshan took the opportunity to divert the topic, and at the same time showed a look of nostalgia on his face.
"Well, the main purpose of the old man this time is to travel, and the special delicacy is naturally not to be missed. β
After several people talked, the man in Tsing Yi led the way, constantly interspersed in the streets and alleys of the city. Suddenly, Huo Yingjun frowned slightly, and his face was displeased.
"Master....... β
"Keep your mindset and act as if nothing happened, and don't look back. Lao Dao immediately interrupted the yellow-clothed scholar.
"Uh....... β
Hearing this, the faces of the Tsing Yi couple changed slightly, and then recovered. Soon, they came to an old tavern, and at this moment, people came and went in front of the door, and Bai Qingshan suddenly smiled. It seemed that the old shop was still there, and he walked a few steps briskly to enter the store in advance.
"Are the guests eating or buying flower cakes?" A few people walked into the tavern on their front and back feet, and a shopkeeper ran in front of them.
"Xiao Er, can this still be the Yue family's shop?" the man in Tsing Yi couldn't help but ask, just in case.
"That's natural, this store has been around for more than a few hundred years, and the taste has never changed, and it has always been the inheritance of Old Man Yue's heirs. It seems that several of them were former acquaintances. The shopkeeper is very familiar with everyone and talks to everyone.
"That's good, is there a private room upstairs?" Bai Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief, this was the place he took the initiative to introduce, and he had to make sure that it was the original taste.
"A few people just came, and there was only one room left. There are four diners, and the upstairs diners invite ....... The shopkeeper shouted.
The group then went up to the second floor and entered the private room, where they had just taken their seats. The son of the Huo family immediately shot out with a spiritual power and laid down a soundproof barrier, which was only soundproofed and not isolated.
"Huo Gongzi, are we being followed?" Hua Qingling saw Huo Yingjun's move, and Lenovo had a conversation between the two of them, showing concern on his face.
"Well, there are a few fusion stage cultivators who have been following us since they entered the city. The scholar in yellow replied in a deep voice.
"Master, it seems that it is impossible for us to infiltrate the Bai family silently. Bai Qingshan was helpless.
"Why do you want to sneak into the Bai family quietly? The old man wants you to be upright and be invited back by the Bai family. Well, this flower cake tastes good, not dry or greasy, and melts in your mouth. As he spoke, he picked up the small sweets on the table and put them in his mouth.
"Master, if you say that you will return to the Bai family, I will believe it. However, the Bai family took the initiative to ask for the next return, which may be ....... The man in Tsing Yi didn't dare to think that the Bai family would take the initiative to invite him back.
Although the Bai family is a small force attached to the Wanhua Valley Gate, its strength should not be underestimated. If Lao Dao does not use force, it will be difficult to achieve what he says. After all, the existence of the Tsing Yi couple also involves the face of Wanhua Valley.
"The time, the place, the people are all right, nothing is impossible. After he was full of wine and food, the old man made his own arrangements. Dao Yunchu still looks confident.
Soon, a table of local specialties was served. Huo Yingjun came with a reputation for soy sauce, and he didn't take what the Taoist said to heart, and when he saw the delicacies, he and his master shook off their cheeks and feasted on them.
Bai Qingshan and Hua Qingling were worried as the parties concerned, and they seemed to be tasteless and slow to swallow for the long-awaited taste of their hometown.
"Master, what do you mean by the time, place, and people?" The yellow-clothed scholar looked up and saw the two of them like this, and felt for a moment that it was not about his own actions, and he was a little unreasonable, so he took the initiative to speak.
"The time of day means that Wanhua Valley is about to recruit relatives, and the location is this Orchid Valley, which is a must-pass place to Wanhua Valley. As for the people, the four of us are one thing, and so are the spies who were temporarily placed here during special periods. β
"Master, you have a good time and place, and you can explain it well, but what does it have to do with people and spies?"
"In normal times, these people really have no effect except to annoy people. If we deliberately make a big move at the moment, you will taste it. β
"Oh! These spies belong to many small forces in Wanhua Valley, if we take the opportunity to do something, they will help us publicize it for free, and the news will go directly to the people with heads and faces here. β
"Yes, in this special period, the special place will not only alarm the local forces, but also attract the attention of other outside forces in a short period of time. β
"As long as we do things vigorously and rampantly enough in the name of Big Brother Bai, we will definitely become famous. When the influence reaches a certain level, other forces will come over to make friends, and it will be impossible for the Bai family to watch their own people being co-opted by other forces. β
"Well, the kid has grown. However, it can't be in the name of Bai Qingshan, his strength is limited. Instead, in the name of the guild created by the couple, those who have a heart will find out who is behind the scenes. β
"Guild? Master can't help it, it's too costly. The Tsing Yi couple were shocked when they heard this, and hurriedly knelt down and did not dare to accept this generous gift.
"Get up, the old man is not only for you, but also for the Huo family. The old man's tone was flat and unwavering.
"It's also for me, master, you're so good, but why does this have anything to do with me again? Huo Yingjun was excited, but he couldn't figure out why.
"It's best to use the prestige of the Huo family before building momentum, so that the effect will be more significant. At the same time, once you succeed, you can also get rid of the image of a gentleman, and impress your father and the beautiful woman in your heart. β
"What the master said is very true, but what do you need to do?"
The scholar in yellow was excited when he thought about it, and in the future, I am Huo Yingjun, the president of a certain guild, and I am Huo Yingjun, the son of the Huo family, and I have more achievements. One is obtained by his own strength, and the other is given by his own Lao Tzu, and the two concepts are completely different.
"You work together to form guilds. As for how to divide the status, they discussed with each other. However, handsome, as the only heir of the Huo family, the old man does not recommend that you be the president, so as not to cooperate with other forces in the future and leave the shop big bully. β
"The master is right, I just need to be the founder and vice president. In the future, if you talk about cooperation with other forces, it is easy to be constrained by the Huo family's face and embarrassed to put forward conditions. It's better for Big Brother Bai and Sister-in-law to come forward, and there is no fear for the sake of interests. β
"I can't help it, our husband and wife have already taken a big advantage, how can we sit on the chairman's seat again. Bai Qingshan flatly refused.
"Brother Bai, your relationship with your sister-in-law is sincerely admired, and I, Huo Yingjun, believe in your character. Master, if I marry Brother Bai as brothers, will the effect be better?"
"Uh...... The matter of swearing is the personal will of both of you, and the old man will not give any advice. β
"Huo Gongzi is serious, how can I, Bai Qingshan, He De, climb the high branches of the Huo family, and I hope that Gongzi will retract what he just said. The man in Tsing Yi was repeatedly challenged in his heart, and his face was panicked.
"Brother Bai is serious, there are very few people who can make me Huo Yingjun admire, and I never judge the noble or low by identity in my heart. Could it be that Big Brother Bai doesn't look down on me?"
"Huo Gongzi's joke is too big, how dare I despise Huo Gongzi if I am a casual cultivator. Bai Qingshankou was stupid, and he was surrounded by Huo Yingjun in a few words.
"That's good, it's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, and now you and I are brothers of the opposite sex. The son of the Huo family smiled slightly when his treacherous plan succeeded, his original intention may be more to build momentum for the guild that is about to be established.
