Volume 1 The Lord of Snake Pan Mountain Chapter 179 Yang Wenqing
Wei Wuxian caught up with the two people in front of him, and what he saw along the way was shocking, the corpses of the blood monkey and the monks of the major sects were everywhere, and the deaths were all miserable. Many low-ranking monks were cleaning up the bones of their fellow monks, and the injured monks were placed together for treatment.
The three of them found the leader Yun Hao, Yun Hao was very lucky, he was only slightly injured, and he didn't ask anything when he saw the three of them, the situation was very chaotic at that time, who could take care of whom.
Yun Hao arranged for the three of them to go to the wounded camp to help, in fact, there was nothing to help, there were a large number of low-level monks below, and the seriously injured ones had been transferred out of the underground abyss, and they didn't have to worry about minor injuries, and they all prepared healing pills.
Half a day later, the three of them learned roughly what happened from the injured fellow door.
Not to mention, the Yuan God Realm Golden-winged Blood Monkey was indeed besieged and killed by many Jindan monks.
The Xuanyue Sect and the Fallen Soul Sect teamed up to arrange an extremely powerful magic circle, trapping the golden-winged blood monkey of the Yuan God Realm in it, and it was said that there were a hundred red-eyed and black-eyed demons in the array, second only to the Ghost King. These yin things are endlessly alive in the array, no matter how the golden-winged blood monkey of the Yuan God Realm kills, they can't finish killing it, and the late-stage Jindan monks of other major sects took the opportunity to attack, and only after paying the lives of seven late-stage Jindan monks did they kill this monster.
As soon as Wei Wuxian heard this, he knew that this was the 'Hundred Ghost Refining Soul Array', one of the seven secret techniques of the Xuanyue Sect. However, he was more concerned about the alliance between the Xuanyue Sect and the Falling Soul Sect.
His understanding of the Hundred Ghost Alchemy is far above that of others, this formation is broad and profound, and it is impossible for two different sects to be used in actual combat without a long period of cooperation and practice, especially this kind of life-and-death battle with the Golden Winged Blood Monkey of the Yuan God Realm.
This shows that the relationship between the two sects is not ordinarily close, otherwise the Xuanyue Sect would not share the secret art of this sect with another sect.
Qin Yuchuan's words came to his ears again, could they really all come from the 'Blood Soul Sect' of the Ancient Sect?
He didn't want to believe that this was true, because that meant that Qin Yuchuan's words were very likely to be true, and the so-called trap might have just begun.
It's just that he doesn't understand why the two sects don't suddenly switch sides in the big battle, in that case, joining forces with a golden-winged blood monkey from the Yuan God Realm can completely wipe out all the people who came in this time.
And their choice was the opposite, not only did they not do that, but they fully cooperated with other sects to exterminate the golden-winged blood monkey of the Yuan God Realm, which really didn't make sense.
Just as he was thinking about it, Shangguan Yan walked in from outside, and Jin Zhiyong said, "Senior Brother Shangguan, didn't you go to hand in the loot, why did you come back so quickly." ”
They killed a lot of blood monkeys along the way, and according to the regulations, they needed the heads of blood monkeys to exchange for merit points, and the three of them got together and handed them all over to Shangguan Yan to exchange for equal shares.
Shangguan Yan said: "Something happened, now the monks of the major sects outside are flocking to that Fulong Palace, I heard that an elixir that can increase longevity has been found inside, and now they are arguing over the assigned matter, and there will be a fight." ”
Wei Wuxian chuckled in his heart when he heard this, could it be that this was the trap prepared by those two major sects?
Jin Zhiyong asked, "Who is that pill in now, and how many are there?"
Shangguan Yan said: "The specific situation is not clear, Senior Yuan asked me to tell you to hurry over, just in case." ”
The three of them got out of the wounded and sick camp, and along the way, Wei Wuxian really found that the other sects that were originally stationed nearby were all evacuating to other places, and the atmosphere became extremely tense, like a taut string, about to erupt.
In front of Yuan Hao's camp at this time, more than thirty disciples of the Tianshui Sect Foundation Building Period and more than one hundred disciples of the Qi Refining Period gathered, and the three of them waited outside for a while, and Yuan Hao finally came out of it.
He said with a very solemn expression: "I think you have also heard, now the whole army is going to Fulong Palace, waiting for further instructions, we are still fighting in the front." ”
When Wei Wuxian heard this, he knew that something unusual must have happened in the Fulong Palace, otherwise the army would not all have gone there.
This time, the Tianshui Sect sent the most people as the leader of the alliance, reaching more than 4,000 people, in addition to the 1,000 people left above, there were more than 3,000 people below, and the battle lost hundreds of people, and now there are more than 2,000 people left.
Wei Wuxian's foundation building stage team was the first echelon when it first came down, there were originally fifty foundation building disciples, but now there are thirty-six people left, and only one hundred and seventy-seven of the three hundred qi refining stage disciples remain.
In front of the Fulong Palace, the monks of more than ten sects had already set aside an area to guard there, and Wei Wuxian saw a few old acquaintances, and they also noticed him.
The arrival of the monks of the Tianshui Sect made the situation outside the Fulong Hall even more tense, and then many sects rushed over, these were small sects, and they also had one or two hundred people, and they were very consciously guarding the periphery.
The number of people on the side of the Tianshui Sect is increasing, and the arrival of batches of disciples has put more and more pressure on other sects, some sects have quietly begun to withdraw, and some sects have merged together.
At this time, nearly 50,000 monks had gathered outside the Fulong Palace, among which the Tianshui Sect was the strongest, with more than 3,000 people, followed by the Luoyang Sect, the Jintaimen, the Wuyang Sect, the Xuanyue Sect and the Broken Soul Sect. They each numbered more than a thousand people, and together they accounted for one-fifth of the entire army of monks.
Of course, in addition to the disciples of their own sect, the six major sects also have many small sects that are attached to them, but in general, the Tianshui Sect is the only one.
About another hour passed, the Fulong Hall on the opposite side suddenly burst into brilliance, and after a few earth-shattering loud noises, dozens of escapes shot out from inside, and then I saw dozens of small sect monks who were originally waiting outside retreating one after another.
All the monks present were at a loss for what to do, and they looked blankly at the gate of the Fulong Hall opposite, all of them clenching their swords and magic weapons in their hands.
Immediately afterwards, three rays of light shot out from inside, and this time the light fell on the camps of Tianshui Sect, Jintaimen and Wuyang Sect respectively.
It was Yu Donglai who came out from the Tianshui Sect's side, and he couldn't see anything from his face, but since he didn't ask the disciples of the Tianshui Sect to evacuate, it meant that the general trend should still be on the side of the Tianshui Sect.
Sure enough, then a lot of retreats came out of the main hall, and there were fewer and fewer people outside the Fulong Palace, and in the end, only the Tianshui Sect, the Jintai Sect, the Wuyang Sect and the Luoyang Sect, the four strongest sects in the Central Plains, remained.
Wei Wuxian thought that it seemed that the Jindan powerhouses in these major sects had reached a consensus inside, and there should be no more trouble.
————————
Three days later, the army sent by the Tianshui Sect to southern Xinjiang returned to Wanfu Mountain, as for what happened in the Fulong Palace, no one knew, and the sect was strictly forbidden to discuss relevant matters, and once discovered, it was severely punished.
But the rumors outside are still continuous, all say that several major sects have divided the treasures inside, and those small sects that were recruited this time have become cannon fodder, not to mention nothing, and many disciples have been killed and injured.
To Wei Wuxian's surprise, it was rumored that the Xuanyue Sect and the Soul Breaking Sect, which had been vigorously involved in the extermination of the Yuanshen Realm Golden-winged Blood Monkey this time, gave up the treasures inside, and only took the corpses of the dead Yuanshen Realm Golden-winged Blood Monkey and a dozen other eight-winged blood monkeys.
He wanted to ask what happened inside Beigong Haoyue, but in the end he didn't go, this matter is related to the secret of the sect, since Beigong Haoyue didn't tell him after he came back, it means that he can't say it.
Ten days later, Tianshui Sect was rewarded with merit points for going south this time, and Wei Wuxian, Jin Zhiyong, and Shangguan Yan shared 30,000 O merit points equally, so that his merit points had 24,000 and 3 merit points.
Wei Wuxian had already thought about it, and the 20,000 O merit points were directly exchanged for twenty Zhuji Dan, and with these twenty Zhuji Dan, then his base in Shepan Mountain could absorb more talented Qi refining stage cultivators who did not have the opportunity to join, and his strength would be raised to a big level.
Three days later, he left the Tianshui Sect again and embarked on a journey north.
This time, he still took the task of escorting supplies to Luoyang Sect, and the task rewarded 1,000 merit points, but this time he was only escorted by a foundation building monk, as long as the twenty Qi refining period disciples of the Foreign Affairs Hall were safely sent to Luoyang Sect for delivery.
The task was completed smoothly, and when he came out of Luoyang Sect, he did not rush to Lianshan Village, but came to a Fang City not far from Luoyang Sect.
The first time, because he met those evil cultivators and was anxious to see Wang Fu and the others, he didn't stay long, this time he had plenty of time, of course he had to go to other people's markets to have a look.
Luoyang Sect is also a super sect in the Central Plains, with a profound heritage, and the scale of Fang City is not inferior to Tianshui Zongfang City.
Wei Wuxian reined in his qi, looked at the shops along the main road, and bought good things when he encountered them, and he still had more than one million low-grade Yuan Jing on his body, so he didn't have to worry about Yuan Jing at all.
After walking through most of the streets, I came to a shop called 'Taotaoju', which specializes in selling antique remnants, which is very good for the buyer's eye. Luckily, the discerning monk can find good old items here.
Wei Wuxian also overheard about it when Luoyang Sect was delivered, and specially found this store to take a look.
The size of the shop is not very large, but the layout is reasonable and does not make people feel cramped and cramped inside. The furnishings are also antique, and there are various old utensils in different categories.
Most of these utensils are purchased from outside, and some people sell them here, and the prices vary, and they are generally not very expensive.
There were three or four customers in the shop who were shopping for goods, all of them Qi refining period cultivators. When he entered, he immediately attracted the attention of the shopkeeper and greeted him with a smile on his face.
The shopkeeper is an old man on the ninth floor of the Qi Refining Period, his eyes are narrowed, the corners of his mouth are upturned, and the high cheekbones on both sides and a big fleshy nose are very happy.
The shopkeeper's eyesight was very good, and he could see at a glance that Wei Wuxian was not an ordinary monk, and it was likely that there was a big deal coming to his door today.
"This customer wants to buy something, our store has recently found a lot of good things, and I will be very satisfied when I see it. ”
Wei Wuxian smiled and said, "In that case, you can take it all out and take a look." ”
The shopkeeper happily invited him into the room and sat down, and ordered the man to serve good tea, and he brought over a tray with an uncovered tray on which were placed four old objects of different shapes.
The shopkeeper sat down and pointed to one of the things that looked pimple-looking and said, "Guests, don't look at its appearance very well, it is full of fine one-dimensional copper, and after refining it, it can be used to refine excellent fire attribute magic weapons." ”
Yuan copper has the property of absorbing the essence of the sun, and its quality is based on the unit of 'intermediary', the worst is semi-intermediary copper, and one intermediary copper is a good material for refining fire attributes.
However, not to mention a meso-element copper on the market, it is extremely difficult to see half-intermediary copper, if this thing really contains a meso-yuan copper, even if it is only a small fingernail-sized piece, it can be worth a lot of yuan crystals.
Seeing that he was silent, the shopkeeper pointed to the second square seal with a small half of it missing: "This is a primary-level high-grade magic weapon, but because it is missing a part, it can only exert six layers of power now, but the power of this mountain seal magic weapon is extremely great, and it is not much worse than an ordinary first-level high-grade magic weapon." ”
Wei Wuxian's expression still hadn't changed, the primary-grade high-grade magic weapon was no longer as useful to him as before, not to mention that it was still a defective product.
The shopkeeper pointed to the third broken gold and silver-edged scroll and said, "I don't know what this thing is, you can take a look at it, but judging from its exquisite appearance, it shouldn't be an ordinary item." ”
Wei Wuxian held it in his hand, feeling that the thing was lighter than he had imagined, and carefully opened the scroll, which contained some scattered and broken component drawings, which seemed to be a design drawing, because it was very broken, and he couldn't tell what the specific artifact was designing.
He took a cursory look at it, then re-rolled it up and placed it on the tray noncommittally.
The shopkeeper had to introduce the last piece that looked rather unusual, and said, "This is a puppet that can be controlled through divine sense." You see..."
Wei Wuxian saw that the fist-sized metal balls on the tray suddenly unfolded from one angle to another, and in less than a moment, a pale golden beetle appeared in front of his eyes, with a pair of wings on its back, and flew into the air and shot out two white beams of light from his eyes at the flower pot on the other side, directly shattering the flower pot.
Wei Wuxian saw this kind of puppet for the first time, and said curiously, "How many Yuan Crystals does it need to consume like this?"
After the golden beetle is expanded, it is the size of a baby's head, and its attack power is not weak, so it can't consume much yuan crystals in theory.
The shopkeeper put away the puppet and said, "Five low-grade Yuan Crystals can support its actions for a day, and such an attack can be carried out ten times. ”
"Yes, I want this, boss, you can make a price!"
The shopkeeper said: "Guest, this is the treasure of the store, the store does not sell to the public, only exchange." ”
Wei Wuxian was a little surprised and said, "Then what do you want to exchange?"
The shopkeeper was a little nervous and said, "Tsukidan, as long as Daoist friends are willing to take out a Tsukidan, you can exchange it for it." ”
"How many of these mech puppets do you have?"
"That's the only one. ”
Wei Wuxian smiled, he now knew why the other party hadn't exchanged it yet, the reason was very simple, that is, the individual puppet of this organ was not of much use, and a Zhuji Dan would only need a thousand merit points in the Tianshui Sect to be exchanged, and there was no purchase at all. For the monks who have Tsukidan, this level of mecha puppet is not of much use, that is, it is a gadget, and those who want it to enhance their own strength can't take out Tsukidan, so it is the current situation.
He could see that the old man's urgent need for Tsukidan must not be for himself, but also for the younger generations in the family.
Seeing that Wei Wuxian didn't speak for a long time, the shopkeeper hurriedly said, "If the guest can take out a Tsukidan, you can choose one of the other three things here." ”
Wei Wuxian hesitated for a moment and then said, "Okay, I want this thing!" With that, he took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom and placed it on the table in front of him.
Seeing that the other party really owned Tsukidan, and agreed to exchange it, the store was happy and very nervous at the same time picked up the small porcelain bottle, opened the cap and just swept his senses, and immediately said with satisfaction: "Yes, it's Tsukidan, please feel free to choose another thing!"
Wei Wuxian put away the puppet first, then directly picked up the scroll and asked, "Boss, can you tell me where you got this thing?"
"This is a casual cultivator friend who put it on my consignment, and to be honest, I don't plan to make much yuan crystals, just help him sell it to solve the coal burning emergency. ”
Wei Wuxian asked curiously, "Oh." Is this his own thing?"
"He turned out to be a refiner of the Luoyang Sect, but somehow he offended the people above and drove the family out, and now he is still being urged to pay debts, so he has to take out some things left by his ancestors to sell. ”
"So he still has such a painting scroll at home, can the store introduce me to it, I want to buy it." ”
"This..."The shopkeeper looked at the small porcelain vase in his hand, gritted his teeth and said, "Well, as for whether he is willing to meet the customer, I can't guarantee it." ”
An hour later, Wei Wuxian came to a courtyard in Qianxia Mountain.
Before I even went in, I heard the noise and the sound of things falling inside.
"You can't take them away, it's what my ancestors left behind. You can't do that!"
"Yang Wenqing, you destroyed Lord Deacon's magic weapon, this little thing is not enough for the material cost of Lord Deacon's magic weapon, don't force us to do it. ”
"Surnamed Wang, don't think I'm stupid, you colluded to frame me, that magic weapon was deliberately damaged by yourself, you want to rob my ancestral treasure. ”
"Boy, don't talk nonsense, you are no longer a member of the Luoyang Sect, even killing you here is similar to pinching an ant to death, quickly hand over the missing scroll, otherwise don't blame our brother for being rude!"
"Don't be delusional, I've already sold it, and without that scroll, it's useless for you to take it. ”
"Stinky boy, you still have a hard mouth when you die..."
"Oops... Who is it, who is plotting against me behind my back. ”
Wei Wuxian walked in from the courtyard, and instead of looking at the two Luoyang Sect Qi Refining Period cultivators who were holding their heads and shouting, he looked at a thin young man who was half-squatting on the ground and shivering.
"Are you Yang Wenqing?"
The thin young man looked at him and nodded, and asked, "Are you the guest that Uncle Guang said?"
Wei Wuxian smiled and said to him, "Looks like you're in a bit of trouble now!"
Yang Wenqing gritted his teeth and pointed at the two of them and said, "If the guests help me solve them, I will give them all those things, not a single Yuan Crystal." ”
This is the extreme resentment in my heart.
"Deal!"
The two Luoyang Sect's Qi Refining Stage cultivators finally reacted at this time, and one of them pointed at Wei Wuxian and said, "Who are you, actually..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he froze in place, his eyes bulging, and his hands grasping at his neck, as if he had been strangled by something.
When the other man saw his companion like this, he knew that he had met a formidable opponent, and turned and fled.
also didn't run to the gate of the courtyard before he let an invisible force strangle him to death.
Yang Wenqing looked at the two fallen corpses in astonishment, these two were monks of the ninth layer of the Qi Refining Period, and they were also a little capable among the low-level disciples of the Luoyang Sect, but they were quietly killed by the young man opposite in the blink of an eye, which shows how strong the strength of the guest introduced by Uncle Guang is, it should be the predecessor of the Ming Foundation Period.
Wei Wuxian casually removed the storage bag from the waist of the two corpses, and in addition to some Yuan Crystals, materials, and elixirs, one of them also had eight pairs of scrolls with gold threads and silver edges.
However, he didn't leave immediately, but said from Yang Wenqing: "I heard that you turned out to be a refiner?"
Yang Wenqing woke up from the shock and nodded, not knowing what other intentions this mysterious guest had.
"Will you refine the Luoyang Sect's warship?" Wei Wuxian continued to ask.
He learned from Jin Zhiyong that all the warships of the Tianshui Sect were purchased from the Luoyang Sect, and each one was expensive, which was also the main reason why the Tianshui Sect was willing to exchange the black iron ore for copper ore.
Refined iron is used in more and more widely places than refined copper, and building a warship requires a large amount of refined iron and refined copper, and Luoyang Sect's ability to refine magic weapons is the first in the world, and it is the only one that can refine large warships.
Yang Wenqing said: "I used to be a refiner in the shipbuilding department, of course I would, but I can't do it alone." ”
Wei Wuxian said happily: "Yes, it will be fine!" He glanced at the two corpses and said, "Now you are in a lot of trouble, would you like to go with me?"
"Where are you going?"
"Go to a place where no one can find you and still allow you to continue refining!"
"Don't you care?"
"Not only take care of the food, but if you show your value, I can also help you build a foundation!"
"Really?"
"To go or not?"
"Go, fools won't go!"
