Chapter 257
In this way, Xu Yang naturally did not have much interest in the opening of the Fire Spirit Cave.
Most of the monks here were talking about this, and Xu Yang was bored when he listened to it. When the food and wine on his table were almost finished, he didn't bother to listen any further.
His eyes were closed, and he was about to withdraw his senses, but suddenly his body trembled slightly, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his eyes stared in one direction.
There were three people sitting around, two men and one woman, all in their forties and fifties.
One of them was a Confucian scholar, dressed in a cyan robe with a long beard on his chin. Holding a folding fan in his hand, he is fanning gently, his eyes are half-open and half-blind, but there is a faint hint of essence, giving people a sense of extraordinary wisdom.
The other man was a middle-aged man, burly and tall, sitting at a table and chair at the height of others standing. A long scar on his face, extending from his left forehead to his right jaw, with a fierce look, he knew at a glance that it was not a good type.
The last person was a middle-aged woman, but she didn't have the beautiful face of an ordinary female cultivator at all. On the contrary, the ravines are vertical and horizontal, and the face is full of wrinkles, but it gives people a weird feeling that they don't look too old.
Her slightly vicious eyes, and the corners of her mouth even appeared with sneers from time to time, which made people shudder when they saw it.
The cultivation of these three people is all in the middle stage of Qi Gathering, and the cultivation is only medium in this place.
It turned out that it would not attract Xu Yang's attention at all, but their words made Xu Yang, who had become unruly due to long-term meditation and talismanism, tremble and could hardly restrain himself.
"Hmph! The Fire Spirit Cave is such a dangerous place, just the three of us go there, it's not a point to die! If the Kongyun Dao people and the Heavenly Spirit Zen Master are still there, the five of us can consider going together. Now, this matter is not mentioned!" The middle-aged man's eyes flashed fiercely, and his tone was unquestionable.
"Hehe-hee! What are these words? Kongyun Daoyou has not heard from him for many years, and I am afraid that he has been dead for a long time. And although the Heavenly Spirit Daoist returned to the Tianling Temple some time ago, everyone knows about what he secretly did to his companions, and you can't be willing to team up with him!"
"Hmph! What about attacking your companions? You hypocrite, don't be high here! As long as you are given enough benefits, you can't do anything! When did the five of us have one mind? We are not always on guard against each other. Otherwise, if you are not careful, you will fall into a place of no return, just like the people of the Empty Cloud Dao. The woman glanced at the Confucian with disdain, and said a little obediently.
The three of them were talking as if no one was around, and Xu Yang over there was shocked when he heard the words, staring at the three people deadly.
But soon he forcibly suppressed the turmoil in his heart, retracted his gaze and pretended to eat and drink as if nothing had happened. It's just that the divine consciousness no longer has the intention of putting it away, and listens carefully to the other party's conversation.
These three people Xu Yang knew each other, but it was a long time ago.
During his stay in Kongyun Valley, Kongyun Dao people had received a small number of immortal cultivators, except for Tianling Zen Master, Xu Yang had seen these three people, but Kongyun Dao people were not as close as Tianling Zen Master.
When Xu Yang entered this place, he didn't pay too much attention to the appearance of the people here, and when he saw these three people before, he hadn't succeeded in gathering qi, so he just probed the spiritual pressure, so naturally he couldn't recognize the other party.
Seeing these three people at this moment, and they were also talking about the Sky Cloud Dao people and the Heavenly Spirit Zen Master, how could Xu Yang not be excited.
"Qingxian Jushi, Meng Hong, Hua Luangu!" Xu Yang silently recited these three names in his heart, and a strange look flashed in his eyes, but because of the hat, no one could notice it.
As for his thoughts, there is no way to speculate, only to see him sweeping the food on the table like a storm.
"Haha! When did I, Qingxian, say that I am a gentleman in the next place? Hualuan Daoyou, everyone knows each other's details, so why bother to explain it thoroughly! Do you still miss that empty cloud Dao person? If you are not angry in your heart, you can go to the Heavenly Spirit Zen Master to take revenge!" Confucian Sheng's face was slightly gloomy, but he laughed and said.
"Qingxian Daoyou didn't say it, Meng really almost forgot. At that time, Hualuan Daoyou was infatuated with the people of Kongyun Dao, but it is a pity that the falling flowers were intentional, and the flowing water was ruthless. Dahan said to himself, as if he hadn't seen Aunt Hua Luan's face turned abnormally blue.
"Good! good!" the woman laughed angrily, glaring at the two of them, but in an instant her face returned to her normal color, and said gloomily, "I don't need you to mention the old things! I didn't think about avenging that man." If I really know how to take revenge, will the Heavenly Spirit Zen Master really dare to come back?
"It's still what I said just now, Meng Mou won't go. Meng Hong refused, and then said no more. On the contrary, he looked in the other direction on the side of his head, his expression was extremely unkind, and his muscles were tense.
Look at him as if he is eager to try, as if he wants to try his skills.
"Since Meng Daoyou is not going, then this discussion is in vain. If I just find some people who don't know the details to cooperate, I won't agree to come to Hualuan. The Qingxian monk sighed softly, and seemed to be quite sorry for this result.
But his eyes followed Monhong's gaze, for one of them walked straight towards them.
"This fellow Daoist, do we know each other?" Hua Luangu frowned, glanced at Qingxian Jushi and Meng Hong, and said to the person who had already walked in front of her.
She had a slight doubt in her heart, although the person in front of her was wearing a hat to cover her face and couldn't see her face clearly, but her breath was very unfamiliar, and she should be the first person to meet.
Of course, the person who came was Xu Yang, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, an unmanned chair nearby had been photographed closely.
Immediately, Da Ma Jindao sat at the table of the three of them, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "My surname is Chen, and it is the first time I have met you, and I have some things to inquire about this time." ”
"Oh, what do you have to ask?" the three of them were slightly stunned when they heard this, and the Qingxian monk asked first.
The other two had no objection to this, and looked like they were looking at the head of a young man.
If it weren't for hearing the conversation between the three just now, Xu Yang would really think that Qingxian Jushi was the leader of the three!
"This is a Qingxian Taoist friend, right? Chen is looking for a Taoist, his Taoist name is empty, you should know him! I wonder if you can tell me where he is? As long as the information is accurate, the remuneration is by no means a problem. Xu Yang's voice was a little hurried, as if this person was in urgent need of him.
"Chen Daoyou!" Meng Hong's face was tightened, and his expression became hideous, "Are you playing tricks on us? You should have heard our conversation before coming over? That Kongyun Dao man is dead, do we tell you that his soul is in the underworld, and you also answered you?"
"You have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death!" Xu Yang turned a blind eye to Meng Hong's anger, and instead said calmly. It's just that the words are extremely firm, and they are not moved by external objects at all.
"The first question, a spirit stone. In the future, every question will be doubled!The Kongyun Dao person is already dead, and this matter was told to me by the Heavenly Spirit Zen Master himself!" Qingxian Jushi's face was serious, and he stopped the angry Meng Hong, and Hua Luan Gu who seemed to say something with a sinister smile on her face.
"Okay!" Xu Yang's hand flickered, and a spirit stone appeared out of thin air and shot at the Qingxian monk, "Heavenly Spirit Zen Master, what is the strength of this person?"
"Now he is the peak cultivation of the middle stage of Qi Gathering, and I only know that four years ago, he used a string of demon prayer beads, leaving a lot of prestige. The Qingxian monk put away the spirit stone, his face was still serious, and he couldn't see the slightest thought, but he said without pause.
"Is that all?" Xu Yang's voice was slightly cold, and with a shake of his hand, two spirit stones had already shot out.
He didn't look at whether the other party accepted it, his body had already stood up, and he turned around and left with an indifferent expression. He didn't even ask for any more information, as if he had already finished asking.
"Zen Master Tianling has said that he may go on a long trip in ten days. Qingxian Jushi said unhurriedly, as if he was still afraid that Xu Yang would not believe it, "He also said at the time that if you want to break into the Fire Spirit Cave together, you should find him as soon as possible." Otherwise, you may not be able to find him in the future. ”
Xu Yang's body was stunned when he heard this, as if he was frozen. The palm of his hand was grasped and released, and in the last flip, the four spirit stones had already shot backwards, "Thank you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his body walked towards the door without pause, and in the blink of an eye, he had already left the door and disappeared in front of the eyes of the three of them.
"Meng Daoyou, what do you see?" a strange smile appeared on the Qingxian monk's face, and he turned his head to the big man with a puzzled expression and asked.
"This person seems to be old, but in fact he is very young! Although it is only the peak of the early stage of qi gathering, his mana seems to be more powerful, and the cultivation method does not seem to be simple. It's so generous, it's not an ordinary person!" Meng Hong raised his eyebrows and glanced at the empty doorway.
When Qingxian Jushi heard Meng Hong's words, he smiled noncommittally, and turned his head to look at Aunt Hua Luan, although he didn't speak, but the meaning was very obvious.
He asked about the Sky Cloud Dao and the Heavenly Spirit Zen Master, and the target should be one of these two. And your last sentence is to ask him to go to the Tianling Temple within ten days? Hehe! You don't want to fight this person's idea, are you? Is it friend or foe?" Hua Luan Gu looked at Qingxian Jushi, and doubts flashed in her eyes.
"Whether it's friend or foe, of course, we have to see the situation! It seems that Daoyou Hualuan is not opposed to this, so what about Daoyou Meng?"
"Looking at his shots, you know that he is a wealthy person. Even if his cultivation is average, you must be careful when you hit him. Meng Hong's eyes were fierce and restrained, and he actually became cautious and abnormal, completely different from Fang Cai's performance, as if he had become another person.
"Hehe! Meng Daoyou seems to be a little interested in this matter, in that case, let's talk about it in another place!" Qingxian Jushi glanced around, smiled strangely, and then stood up.
Meng Hong and Hua Luangu glanced at each other when they saw this, and they also got up and left with Qingxian Jushi.
After the four of them left, several people in the hall looked at the door, but hesitated and did not follow.
Xu Yang was not clear about the conversation between the three Qingxian monks. At this moment, he was walking in the Fang City, his eyes were red and abnormal, if it weren't for the relationship between covering his face and hat, others would definitely be able to see the amazing murderous aura from it, and Xu Yang couldn't suppress the killing intent of the Heavenly Spirit Zen Master.
Soon after, Xu Yang returned to his living room. Holding the purple fox talisman pen in his hand, his expression changed uncertainly, but no matter how he looked at it, he looked extremely hideous.
The calming effect of the purple fox talisman pen couldn't restrain his emotions at all, and after a long time, Xu Yang put away the talisman pen with a light sigh.
"I can't calm down, it seems that even if I know it's Longtan Tiger's Den, I'm going to break through!" As Xu Yang's words fell, his eyes closed slightly, and when he opened it again after a long time, the murderous aura was gone.
It's just that his face has become calm and abnormal, revealing a trace of coldness, as cold as death.
"The last words of the Qingxian monk are obviously intended to be to go to the Tianling Temple within ten days. Whether what he said was true or not, for me, who swore to kill the Heavenly Spirit Zen Master, I had to make a trip. I can't afford to gamble!" Xu Yang muttered to himself, but the words to himself seemed cold.
After saying that, Xu Yang didn't hesitate anymore, stood up directly, put on a hat and left the bedroom, and went to the Fang Market Trading Place again.
Only this time he was not as purposeless as Fang Cai, only to see him walk through the bustling bazaar, enter the group of shops, and finally stop in front of the Wuheng Hall.
He was visibly stunned when he entered the cluster of shops, because the streets were so crowded with people than he had ever seen before.
As soon as he entered the Wuheng Hall, he took a deep breath, and the number of guests inside was at least twice as many as in the previous peak period.
But as soon as he thought about it, it became clear that when the Fire Spirit Cave was about to open, those who wanted to enter would definitely buy what they needed.
The bazaar had always been so hot, so he didn't notice it. Thinking of this, he didn't think much about walking in one direction.
There were five people talking there, and it was Yu Daowei and the other five righteous brothers and sisters in the Wuheng Palace.
Almost as soon as Xu Yang passed, they turned to look at Xu Yang. Needless to say, they had been using their divine senses to probe the surroundings, and they could easily detect it as soon as Xu Yang entered the Wuheng Palace.
"Chen Daoyou, you actually came here too, are you also interested in the Fire Spirit Cave, do you want to go in and break in?"
This person is their third eldest, Lu Rong, probably because of the relationship between Xu Yang's talismans, he has the best relationship with Xu Yang among the five.
"Hehe! Of course Chen is interested in the Fire Spirit Cave, and you don't know how long Chen stayed at the peak of the early stage of qi gathering, this opportunity is rare, Chen may really be desperate. Xu Yang's mouth under the hat curled up, and a rare smile appeared, and he could only talk easily with these people in the market.
"Chen Daoyou didn't mention the matter of being a partner, it seems that he doesn't want to team up with us! Could it be that Daoyou has already found a better partner? If you are not really a good friend, it is better to be careful.
In a dangerous place like the Fire Spirit Cave, if you are not careful, you will be damaged. Yu Daowei's face rarely showed a serious look.
"Thank you Yu Daoyou for your concern! I, Chen, have always been alone, where do I have any partners? Chen's cultivation is low, and it is unknown whether he will go to the Fire Spirit Cave or not, and now he just wants to buy some necessary things first, in case he will be caught off guard if he really enters it!" Xu Yang smiled softly, and said half-truthfully.
"Hmph! Even if you are self-aware, it is not a matter of sending you to death to break into the Fire Spirit Cave with your cultivation!" Li Rongxia on the side suddenly rushed to interject, her voice full of sarcasm.
But Xu Yang only smiled bitterly when he heard this, he was used to the other party like this, because he was so cynical every time he came to the other party.
Xu Yang also knew that the other party had no malicious intent, and this time it was the same.
The cultivation in the early stage of gathering qi is really weak in Qingzhou!
Let's just say that the five people on the opposite side have made great strides in their cultivation in the past four years, and Zhang Kesheng, Lu Rong and Bai Liuxian have all entered the late stage of gathering qi.
Even Li Rongxia, who was originally the same as Xu Yang's cultivation, has already entered the middle stage of qi gathering, so it's no wonder that the latter would say such things to Xu Yang.
As for Yu Daoweiwei, although he is still in the late stage of qi gathering, his mana has reached the peak of this realm, and he may break through at any time.
"Little sister is talking nonsense again, Chen Daoyou, don't be surprised. I don't know what kind of things do you need to come this time?" Zhang Kesheng was the most honest and kind, and when he heard this, he frowned, and said first.
"Hehe! Chen has long been surprised by this, if Fairy Xia is not like this one day, Chen will still feel strange? As for the things that Chen needs, as long as it can improve Chen's strength, Chen is interested!" Xu Yang was still smiling at first, but in the end, he suddenly became serious.
The change in Xu Yang's words was very common, and no one else cared.
But when Yu Daowei's tone changed in Xu Yang's tone, his heart suddenly tightened, and a trace of doubt flashed in the depths of his eyes?
It's just that the killing intent is not directed at them, and it is hidden so deep that it is difficult to detect!
After a quick calculation in Yu Daowei's heart, he pretended not to notice it, and said with a smile: "Chen Daoyou should want to improve his strength in a short period of time, right? In that case, the classics and pills should not be what you need at the moment." In terms of talismans, magic weapons, and array tools, let's think of a way!"
"In that case, you will have to work for Daoist friends, let's take a look at the magic weapon first!" Xu Yang nodded slightly when he heard this.
"In this way, Chen Daoyou, please follow Yu into the back hall!" Yu Daowei smiled when he heard this, and said with his hand.
"Inner hall?" Xu Yang's pupils shrank, he knew that the back hall of the large shop was specially prepared for distinguished guests, and there were many valuable things that would only be sold in the back hall.
Originally, with Xu Yang's identity, it was impossible to be allowed to enter at all, so this result was naturally due to Yu Daowei's help.
Not long after, Xu Yang, Yu Daowei and the other six people were already in a secret room, and they sat down separately.
This secret room is not large, only a few feet in size, and there is not much room left for the tables and chairs they are sitting on. The surroundings were empty, and there was no cargo in sight.
After Xu Yang entered this place, he had already explored the surroundings clearly, and there was only one place for him to pay attention to.
It was a curtain hanging behind Yu Daowei and them, and Xu Yang had not yet made any words or movements. But hearing the sound of "pop!" twice, Yu Daowei slapped his palm twice.
The curtain was gently lifted, and two beautiful maids walked out of it. Each of them held several boxes of different sizes in their hands, and when they walked over, they carefully placed the contents in their hands on the table.
Under Yu Daowei's signal, he bowed to Xu Yang and began to open the boxes one by one.
Xu Yang frowned, just now he reached behind the curtain with his divine sense, but he was easily blocked back. But he didn't pay much attention to it, because the other party had already opened the boxes one by one.
Xu Yang just glanced away, and was deeply attracted, and the other party seemed to know what he was thinking, and took out what he urgently needed.
"Chen Daoyou, these are some of the things in the back hall that Yu can take out as the master. As long as you need it, Yu can sell it to you at a low price, and if you want to buy something better at a low price, Yu can do nothing. A hint of apology appeared at the corner of Yu Daowei's mouth, but Xu Yang naturally didn't think that the other party meant that.
"This sword is called Split Gold, and it is made of Huanglongyan produced in Wuzhou as the main material, and it is not a problem to destroy the Gold Split Stone, and it is definitely the top level among low-level magic weapons. Zhang Kesheng didn't wait for Xu Yang to speak, he had already introduced it first, and what he said was naturally the magic weapon he was familiar with.
"It's indeed a good sword!" Xu Yang didn't wait for the other party to greet him, and with a stretch of his hand, he had already taken a golden long sword with an aura into his hand.
This sword exudes a faint golden light, the sword body is broad, and the blade is extremely sharp, giving people a strange feeling of indestructibility and thick and abnormal.
"But this is just a low-level magic weapon, can't you sell some mid-level magic weapons?" Xu Yang touched the Split Gold Sword in his hand, and he felt like he couldn't put it down, but he still asked.
Zhang Kesheng glanced at Yu Daowei, and only when he saw him nodding did he say: "Chen Daoyou, the mid-level magic weapon is a limited commodity, and in principle, only Daoists who have cultivated above the late stage of Qi Gathering can buy it. But if Daoist friends want to, we can find another way, but those magic weapons are expensive, needless to say, the quality is still poor among the mid-level magic weapons. ”
"Chen Daoyou, although Yu doesn't know what kind of exercises you are practicing, although your exercises are much deeper than ordinary exercises in terms of mana. But it's obviously not good at mana, and the mid-level magic weapon is not something you can use in your cultivation now. Yu advised you to make another choice. Yu Daowei saw Xu Yang groaning and suggested.
Xu Yang smiled when he heard this: "It seems that Yu Daoyou's selection of these treasures was based on your understanding of Chen. Although there may be some deviations, according to Chen, it should not be far behind. ”
Looking at the treasures in front of him, Xu Yang hesitated for a moment before he sighed lightly.
But the next moment, his face was embarrassed, and he glanced at everyone and said, "But Chen's spirit stones are limited, and the spirit stones he usually saves are used to buy talisman materials." I don't know if you can be accommodating and use low-level talismans to offset the price with low-level talismans after Chen chooses the treasures?"
