Chapter 54: The Deficit
The successive peak masters, including Bai Yuhuang, all thought that this was the responsibility of the sect, if it weren't for the sect's forcible requisition of the Inner Treasury of the Hundred Refining Peak without any formalities, there would not have been such a big deficit at all, but the Xuantian Sword Sect believed that it was completely due to the poor management of the Hundred Refining Peak itself, and the vast majority of the deficit should be borne by the Hundred Refining Peak itself.
The successive peak masters felt that they couldn't afford such responsibilities and losses, so they refused to take stock of the inner library, until now Liu Kongya and Bai Qiushuang finally persuaded Bai Yuhuang: "We have to figure out how much family wealth we have before we can talk to the sect, no matter what responsibility is not responsible, the first thing is to restore the good merit system."
In fact, this is the regular inventory system within Gu's bookstore, Liu Kongya hopes to gain something by learning and selling in the name of this, of course, his main purpose is to find the two volumes of Xuanshuang Treasure Record, and everything to find out the family background is just a name, so he completely agrees with Bai Yuhuang: "Although the situation in the inner library is said to be very bad, but no matter what, you have to find out the family background before you can have a way, so my master took the initiative to stand up and take responsibility." ”
Li Taiwen immediately asked very eagerly, "Peak Master, tell us, is there a Zhuji Dan in the inner library?"
It's just that before he asked this, Li Taiwen felt that he had said the wrong thing, even if there was a Tsukidan in the inner library, it would be exchanged in the shortest time, so he immediately changed his words and said: "If there is no Tsukidan, it is expected that the Yuedan will be fine!"
Mochizuki Pill is also an elixir that improves the success rate of foundation building, although it is also very precious, but at least it is not as hard to find as a pill as Zhuji Dan, and Bai Yuhuang, as the master of a peak and a Jindan monk, naturally has the temperament of a peak master: "If you really hope for the Moon Pill, I will keep it for you for half a year!"
Li Taiwen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, now he actually enjoys the treatment of the deputy peak master, and the good deeds are also distributed with reference to the deputy peak master, as long as you save a little and borrow it, there is always a way, and Wang Yishi is also very hot when he hears it: "Peak master, if there is a spirit pill that I use, can you also keep it for me for a year!"
The reason why he asked to keep it for a year was naturally because the value of the elixir he liked was definitely not low, and it would take at least a year or two to save up the good deeds, and unlike Li Taiwen, his rival in the peak was only another deputy peak master, Ruan Kai.
Ruan Kai obviously thought of this as well: "Senior Brother Wang, don't worry, I just want to see what kind of magic weapon and spirit weapon I can use?"
Although Wang Yishi breathed a sigh of relief, he would not take Ruan Kai's words seriously, if there was really an elixir to improve the cultivation of the foundation building level, Ruan Kai would definitely compete with him at any cost, and Liu Kongya also noticed the use of the sect's good deeds for the first time: "Master, the two senior brothers have agreed to open the inner library, and then I will ask you to show your magical powers!"
The inner library of Bailian Peak is not in the White Jade Phoenix Cave Mansion, but in the center of the sect's Dharma Protector Array, and here is full of dense talismans and sealed towns, today's Bai Yuhuang does not use the jade sword in his hand, but uses a finger pen to write a paragraph of golden runes in the void that Liu Kongya does not understand at all, and then silver light flashes, Wang Yishi and Ruan Kai also continued to cast spells to assist Bai Yuhuang to open the inner library prohibition.
Liu Kongya's whole person was wrapped in silver light, and then he felt that the world was spinning, and when he blinked, he found that he had come to a warehouse with the infinite vicissitudes of life with Bai Yuhuang, and in front of him were rows of wooden shelves, and there were jade cabinets on the wooden shelves, but the jade cabinets in the warehouse were very incomplete, each row originally had ten jade cabinets, but now there were only four or five jade cabinets at most, Wang Yishi, the deputy peak master, couldn't help but exclaim: "I didn't expect it to be so bad!"
In the past, he and Bai Yuhuang also opened the inner library several times, but each time they came and went in a hurry and encountered several times that the actual library did not match the account book, knowing that the inner library suffered a devastating blow in the plague of the demon locust, but he really didn't observe the actual situation of the inner library, and now he really observed that the situation was much more serious than he expected.
Senior Brother Li Taiwen's heart was also half cold, in this case, don't expect Mochizuki Dan and Zhuji Dan to appear in the treasury that are not recorded in the account books, but Bai Yuhuang held the silver sword in his hand and said: "It is my idea to take stock of the inner library this time, and I will bear all the responsibilities alone!"
Li Taiwen was Bai Yuhuang's newly promoted celebrity, so he immediately defended Bai Yuhuang: "Jade Huang Zhenren, this must be because of the last Demon Locust Disaster, you don't have to be too strict with yourself." ”
Everyone thinks that this reason is acceptable, after all, now is not the time to hold accountable, everyone is concerned about the real inventory of the inner library, so the most anxious Wang Yishi, the deputy peak master over there, immediately took over the topic: "Yuhuang Zhenren, Senior Brother Li is right, our top priority now is to take stock of the actual situation of the inner library." ”
Although Bai Yuhuang felt a lot of pressure, she still said to Liu Kongya behind her: "Xiaoya, you come to recreate the book!"
Those disappeared jade cabinets don't need to be counted, so she pointed a little finger, and a jade cabinet has flown out and landed in the void to show everyone one by one, Wang Yishi said with a little excitement: "Five hundred years old ginseng, six in the account, two in the actual deposit!"
Although the five-hundred-year-old mountain ginseng was no longer of much use to a monk like him in the middle stage of foundation building, and he had lost four of them, this gave Wang Yishi hope after all, and Liu Kongya hurriedly took the talisman pen and began to write on a jade slip.
And with the beginning of the inventory, everyone understood why the Inner Treasury Good Gong System of the Hundred Refining Peak was on the verge of collapse since the beginning of the previous peak master's era, and in fact, the situation of inconsistency between the accounts and the facts was extremely serious, not to mention that only half of the jade cabinets where the resources were stored were now left, but the situation in those jade cabinets that still kept the cultivation resources was also terrible.
For example, there are three of the most practical "Wuzhi Baihua Pills" in the foundation building period, but there is actually no one, and the "Burning Sun Kaishan Ding" that Jindan pharmacists need the most is also missing, and if it is spread, it will definitely be a big scandal, and so on.
Wang Yishi became more and more nervous, he originally wanted to find a few elixirs and heavenly treasures that could be used during the foundation building period in the inner library, but now the more he took inventory, the more disappointed he became: "Sixty Tiger Wing Pills, thirteen are actually saved." ”
"There is one crossbow for shooting the sun in a hundred tribulations, and there are still six in the account book, and one is actually in existence. ”
"Reversing the innate chakra, there are still three in the ledger, but there is actually none. ”
"Tiger bone chalcedony paste, the account book records four copies, but only half of them are actually left. ”
"Golden Silkworm Immortal Qi Pill, there is still one in the account book, and there are zero in it. ”
After taking stock for a while, the deficit is close to 20,000 spirit stones, no wonder the previous peak masters did not dare to poke this hornet's nest, it is really too big a deficit, no one can take this responsibility, Li Taiwen couldn't help but get nervous: "Yuhuang Zhenren, or just end it like this?"
