Volume 1 Qingyun New Seedlings 143 Follow the local customs
Hu Tianxiang carried out a mission alone for the first time, and purchased a lot of things before departure, so that the shopkeeper made a small fortune, in order to be prepared, wine is one of them. Since he bought wine, he had to be prepared for having to drink, so he deliberately refined a lot of sobering pills, secretly took them while the fat man was drinking with his head up, and then also picked up the wine jug and drank with him.
Hu Tianxiang doesn't like to drink, he hates the smell of alcohol very much, and he doesn't want to lose his temper after drinking. He gulped it down, pretending to like it very much. After a while, his body became a little unstable, his face was flushed, and his speech was a little slurred, and he looked like he had drunk too much.
The sobering pill can not only make people stay awake at all times, and not get drunk in a thousand cups, but also create the illusion of drunkenness with a blushing face, and with a certain amount of acting skills, it is enough to confuse the real with the fake.
The two quickly drank two pots of wine, and the fat man was obviously not happy, Hu Tianxiang immediately decided to strike while the iron was hot, and after getting the other party drunk, let him spit out the truth after drinking, so he took out two more pots of wine, and said drunkly: "Brother Zhu, it was inconvenient to take it out just now because there were many people, in fact, I brought a lot of wine, let's continue drinking." ”
"Good brother, let's go again!" the fat man gasped and drank again.
Hu Tianxiang didn't know how much Zhu Fat Man drank, and was worried that he would drink too much and get drunk to death, so he couldn't ask a word, so he pretended to be sad and sighed.
Zhu Fatzi immediately took the bait, and asked with drunken eyes: "Brother, what's wrong, is it difficult?"
Hu Tianxiang smiled bitterly: "From Qingfeng Mountain to Hu'er Mountain, I thought it was about the same, but I didn't expect it to be so bad." ”
Zhu Fatzi smiled, patted Hu Tianxiang's shoulder hard, then pointed at himself, and said, "I used to be a disciple from the inner sect!"
"Ah, my brother used to be on Qingfeng Mountain?" Hu Tianxiang said in surprise.
The fat man nodded, took a big sip of wine, and sighed: "No wonder I feel very close when I see you, I am similar to you, I also made a little mistake back then, I just took dozens of second-order pills from the Pill Hall, and I was assigned here, do you say that I am unlucky? It's been seven years in a flash!"
"It's just a little thing? It's so unfair...... Moreover, the aura of this ghost place is too thin, and it is very different from Qingfeng Mountain, so it is impossible to cultivate at all, when and what month can it come out?" Hu Tianxiang said with a sad face.
The fat man suddenly laughed, he looked around shyly, lowered his voice and said, "Brother told you a secret, brother must not tell others!"
Hu Tianxiang's eyes lit up, and he leaned over and waited for his next step.
Zhu Fatzi didn't say anything, rubbing his hands vigorously, and the smile on his face was as cheap as he was.
Hu Tianxiang immediately understood, and immediately took out a small porcelain bottle and corked it to him, which also contained a hundred medium-grade spiritual qi pills.
Zhu Fatzi opened the cork and glanced at it, smiled even more happily, pulled Hu Tianxiang closer, and said mysteriously: "Elder Wu has been on Hu'er Mountain for decades, you said that there is no way to cultivate here, so how did he enter the Cave Xuan Realm? And it is also a high-level Cave Xuan!"
"yes, what's going on?" Hu Tianxiang was so nervous that his heart was pounding, as if he was about to catch something.
"If Hu'er Mountain's cultivation environment is really so poor, will the ancestors of the Qingyun Sect choose this place as the outer gate?"
"That's right! It makes sense! I beg my brother not to sell it!"
"I'm telling you, don't tell anyone, or the consequences will be serious!"
"Uh-huh, brother, let's continue to drink!
"Okay, let me tell you, in fact, I also stumbled upon it a few years ago, in our Hu'er Mountain, there is a hidden place, where the aura is extremely strong, not worse than Qingfeng Mountain, or even better!"
"Where?"
"It's in the pigeon hole under the cliff! But don't go, it's where Elder Wu cultivates, and it's forbidden for others! Anyone who gets close to there is missing, don't go!" Zhu Fatzi just finished telling him, and he hiccuped a series of wines.
Hu Tianxiang endured the unpleasant smell and nodded, and said gratefully: "Thank you, brother, I will definitely not go." ”
"You can go to Qingyu Pond or Wangtiantai, the aura there is also good, although it is not as good as Qingfeng Mountain, but it is also much stronger than other places......
As he spoke, the fat man's upper body suddenly slammed into the table, followed by a loud snoring.
Back in his cabin, Hu Tianxiang fell into contemplation, the first time they met, because he gave hundreds of spiritual qi pills, the fat man spit out the "truth" after drinking, he didn't dare to believe it all, because he firmly believed that no one in this world is a fool. Even in the outer gate, the person who can become the master of the hall can never be a wine bag and a rice bag. While he wants to take advantage of others, he is likely to be used by others.
He won't go to the pigeon hole for the time being, it is likely to be a trap, a big hole dug up, and it is likely to expose his true intentions. He tried his best to imagine himself as an inner disciple who had really been degraded to the outer gate, and to look at the problem from the perspective of such a person, and to do what he should do to be safe, otherwise it would arouse suspicion. In any case, he cannot act rashly, which means that this task will be difficult to complete in the short term.
Hu Tianxiang couldn't stop persuading himself not to be in a hurry, but after three days of endurance, he couldn't sit still, so he went to Qingyuchi, and pretended to find it by mistake.
Qingyu Pond is not big, at most it is a small lake, there are two people meditating by the pool, a man and a woman, in their early twenties, both of them are mid-level cultivators in the mud pill realm, which is very rare on Hu'er Mountain.
Although the two of them closed their eyes, they had already discovered Hu Tianxiang, but they didn't say anything and didn't move.
Hu Tianxiang hesitated, but still walked to the pool, clasped his fists and saluted the two, and said, "This senior brother, this senior sister, in Xia Guyue, only arrived a few days ago. I found that the aura here is relatively strong, you don't mind that I also cultivate here, right?"
The two of them are still motionless, like wood carvings and clay sculptures.
Hu Tianxiang smiled awkwardly and sat cross-legged beside the man.
As soon as he sat down, the woman opened her eyes and glared at him, and said coldly, "This is not the place you should come to, only Elder Wu's disciples are qualified to cultivate here." ”
The woman's eyes were very unkind to him, as if he had a knife in his eyes, Hu Tianxiang was so angry by her, he tried his best to suppress it, and said with a smile: "When I practiced on Qingfeng Mountain before, I had never heard of this kind of rule. ”
"Oh, it turns out that he is another inner disciple who has been degraded, and I found that everyone who comes from the inner door is so stinky that they can't do it. I don't care what the rules of Qingfeng Mountain are, this is Hu'er Mountain, I advise you to follow the local customs. The woman scoffed.
"What if I don't follow the local customs?" Hu Tianxiang's face instantly turned cold.
The woman smiled and said, "Then I'll use my fist to make you do as the locals do." ”
