Chapter 157: Grabbing Merit

A few people were behind the pile of rubble, meditating and healing, while waiting for news from the other two. It was almost noon, and a round of winter sun hung lazily in the air, illuminating a white mountain range weakly.

"Let's go, wait a little longer at the meeting place, maybe there will be news of them. Ji Ming slowly stood up, his face much better than when Fang Yan first saw him. The words can only be said like this, I am afraid that even he himself does not believe it, under the siege of those overwhelming demon spirits, those two people are the last, I am afraid that the chance of survival is very slim.

However, with the big gift from Fang Yan, Ji Ming was sure a lot in his heart, the reward of such a great merit sect must be rich, even if those two really encountered an accident, according to what everyone said just now, their reward would not be less than a point. These two people are all children of the family in the sect, and there are some forces behind them, if they die for no reason, Ji Ming will not be able to explain it, but now he is dying for the meritorious service of the sect, and he also has an explanation for his family and relatives.

Moreover, there is also a generous reward, Ji Ming will also strive for greater benefits for their relatives after he goes back, after all, there is such a great credit here, no matter how much the sect has to make some gestures, otherwise who will die for the sect. Ji Ming basically knew everything about the aftermath, and when he thought of the dialect that provided this credit, Ji Ming was also very pleased.

It was not far from the meeting place, and they returned the same way again, and there was no trouble along the way, and after half an hour, they came to the place where they had set out. It's just that this place has been covered by a large array, and there are a few disciples who are in charge of defense, and when they saw that Ji Ming had only come back with a few people now, they let them in with a surprised expression.

After entering the formation, several people did not go to rest, and Ji Ming came forward to find Tu Yue, told him about the cold crystal vein, and handed over the jade slip hand-painted by the dialect. Then Fang Yan added some details under Ji Ming's instructions, and Fang Yan deliberately said something vague about the situation near the ore vein, to the effect that there might be powerful demon spirits entrenched there.

Tu Yue is a deacon, who is a deacon in the foundation building period, and more than a hundred years have not lived in vain, and I understand the meaning of the dialect when I hear it. But he was still a little incredulous, his eyes were sharp, and at this time, Fang Yan also knew that these old guys were not easy to deceive, so he took out the invisibility charm and the ichthyosaurus beast very shamefully.

"Hey, you little guy has a lot of good things, if that's the case, it's a little likely, although I'm still a little confused, but those are just side things. Go down and rest, and I'll write down the credit for you for the time being, and reward it when it's confirmed. Today's matter must be kept secret, and if there is any leakage, you can only ask. Then Tu Yue motioned for them to leave.

Several people came out of the inside, and the back of the dialect was all soaked, and cold sweat broke out when they were inside. Na Tuyue is only afraid that he is a veteran who is good at managing affairs, and he is afraid that a set of rhetoric carefully compiled by the dialect is full of loopholes, and he can't stand scrutiny at all, but he doesn't seem to care about this, he is only very interested in the demon spirits there, and he asks very carefully about every kind of demon spirit they encounter.

However, he is also very interested in this cold crystal vein, and the range of the veins from the jade slip is not small, and the high value is really exciting. Fortunately, he didn't ask for other details of the dialect, and if he continued to ask, he was afraid that the dialect would reveal flaws on the spot, and none of these old guys were easy to get along with.

When they arrived at the resting place, Fang Yan learned from everyone's small talk that the other teams of the investigation also lost manpower this time, but they did not die at the hands of demon spirits, but died in the fire with other sects, and only Fang Yan and their team encountered demon spirits.

The next few days were boring, the formation was opened every day, and no one was allowed to go out and leave here, just waiting for the orders of the sect in the same place. The other monks didn't understand it, and they said that they should continue to go out to inspect if they didn't find out clearly, and even if they completed the task, they could go back, and what was going on here.

And Fang Yan vaguely guessed the reason inside, but he was afraid that the ore vein they found had been reported to the sect, and at this time, Li Huomen might be dispatching troops, such a large ore vein with just a few people here is not enough to be able to clear those demon spirits, and it can't stop other sect monks who are like wolves and tigers.

Speaking of which, everyone is an ally who guards the fortress together, but when did they see the benefits, the few sects did not fight to the ground, so that all parties have accumulated deep grievances over the years, and the small actions between each other in the open and secret have not stopped. Sometimes the dialects are very suspicious of the defense of this Black Wind Fortress, just with these seemingly detached sects, there are really a large number of demon beasts coming, who will do their best to defend them.

This time, the sect doesn't know how many monks it will send over, how it will deal with the investigation of the nearby sect, and how to send them, and whether they will be driven to participate in the sect's vicious fight. Fang Yan also regretted a little at this time, he should have pretended to be seriously injured at the beginning, and returned to the sect with Jiang Heng and them, or hid on the mountain peak to heal his injuries, it was better than being used as cannon fodder again.

Just when everyone was full of doubts, a large number of monks suddenly poured into the big array that night, there were three or four hundred people, all of them in the middle and late stages of Qi refining, all of them were drawn from all over the Fire Gate. It is said that there were at least ten monks from the foundation building period who came on this trip, and Huomen's response this time was very fast, which also confirmed Fang Yan's previous thoughts.

What happened after that was really expected by the dialect, and the next morning, the disciples who had come to carry out the search mission were again assigned other tasks. Although many people were a little reluctant, they were still able to help them, and after some intimidation and deception, these people obediently accepted the newly assigned tasks.

Fortunately, Fang Yanxin's task was not bad, and he didn't let him investigate the demon spirit again, but he didn't let him lead the way, but let him follow a team and serve as a guard not far from here. When he received the task, Fang Yan was also a little puzzled, originally he thought that he would be asked to lead the way and take those predecessors in the foundation building period to the location of the cold crystal vein, but no one mentioned it to him.

In this way, Fang Yan set off with the team in a daze, and stationed on a hill not far away for a day, and before nightfall, Fang Yan followed the team back to the big formation, and nothing happened for a day.

Fang Yan's heart was full of doubts, didn't he care about the vein inside the door, but he didn't know how many people to ask, and he didn't know who to ask, and he couldn't do anything if he stayed here, so he left his lodging and prepared to wander around here at will. Who knew that as soon as he went out, he met Ji Ming, and the complexion on his face was a little better, but his face was indignant.

Before the dialect could speak, Ji Ming pulled him to a secluded place, and said to him a little angrily: "Some people's shamelessness is beyond the imagination of the senior brother, don't be impulsive after hearing it, I don't believe that this sect was covered by these people, and they didn't even ask about the twists and turns, and the senior brother must give the senior brother an explanation for this matter." ”

Then Ji Ming whispered to Fang Yan, it turned out that one of the two people who returned from there with them was named Feng Chong, who had a lot of background in the sect, and just last night, I don't know who was the relationship, he secretly met with the leading deacon of the sect this time, and volunteered to lead the way for them and take them to check the Hanjing vein.

As for how he knew the path to get there, it was actually very simple, on the way back for the four of them, Ji Ming was anxious to know the true situation of this vein, and he was also worried about misreporting the credit, so he asked Fang Yan to tell in detail about the discovery of the ore vein, and Fang Yan didn't think much about it, and said the road to there one by one, without concealing anything.

Who knows that the speaker has no intention of listening but has a heart, this Feng Chong didn't say anything on the surface after writing it down, but he was careful in his heart, and after he came back, he started to move, bent on taking more credit, and also said through some relationships that the deacon who led the team this time was moved, and he took them there to investigate today.

What made Ji Ming most angry was that it was said that on the way to the ore vein, this Feng Chong intentionally or unintentionally publicized how he was, and some of the things he didn't made up nonsense, and tried his best to whitewash it, just to dress himself up as the number one hero, and even wanted to monopolize this credit. The deacons of the sect who came later didn't know about this matter, their purpose was just to find the vein and occupy it, and they didn't care who found it.

For such a major achievement, how to reward it in the end, and how to divide the reward, of course, it is not the turn of a small person like Ji Ming to put the beak, it is all the deacons of these sects who report to the top of the sect to decide after confirming the size of the credit. But in this process, there is too much room for maneuvering, especially for those who are sent later, and the deacon who takes the lead is the most critical person.

Now the only thing that is beneficial to them in the dialect is the jade slip, fortunately, the dialect carved it there on a whim, and it became the earliest record of the cold crystal vein, and it is still in the hands of Tu Yue, which can become the most favorable evidence for the dialect. But it is said that just this evening, Cha Tuyue returned to the sect with a few deacons to report, which made Ji Ming anxious.

Fang Yan was speechless after hearing this, this monk from the Fire Gate is indeed the best, only if he can't think of it, he can't do it, he can ignore anything in front of interests, and even dare to do such a thing. Suddenly, Fang Yan's heart moved, and he asked casually: "There is another person, how is he?"

Who knew that Ji Ming was even more angry when he heard this, and scolded viciously: "That kid is not a thing, and now he is following Feng Chong to curry favor with him, which is closer than his own father." ”

It is not false to speak dialects about these rewards, at least it can improve the status of dialects in the door a lot, and the benefits brought by this are of course very considerable, not to mention that dialects have always wanted to have a good cultivation environment, and with these rewards, dialects can do a lot of things.

"The other two can basically be sure that they have fallen, although they have not found the bones, but the scene there can already tell everything, the possibility of survival is very small, they have not come back for a few days, and the sect is ready to announce that they are dead. Ji Ming clenched his fist fiercely and slammed it to the ground: "The bones of my teammates are not cold, but they are thinking about greedy for heaven, this kind of person should be killed! I have to find other people again, and I will not let them succeed." ”

After saying that, Ji Ming turned around and left, and the rest of the Yan stood quietly in the snow alone, Fang Yan was really a little helpless, he had no foundation from the fire gate, who could he find in this matter. Ji Ming persuaded himself not to be impulsive at first, but he himself was angry, and when he left, he was furious, and his dialect was a little worried that he would do something drastic.

Although Fang Yan had long had no high expectations from the Fire Gate, and was tired of the deceit among those sects, he still didn't expect that someone would go so far as to dare to blatantly snatch the credit of others. In fact, when he met Ji Ming that time, he had already made it very clear that those credits also had a share of those two people, but some people were still not satisfied, and it was estimated that Ji Ming said that he would leave a share for the two dead fellow disciples, which made them dissatisfied.

is so mean and unkind, such a person is really not as good as a pig and a dog, Ji Ming is right, this kind of person should be killed. The dialect even had some impulsiveness to go to those people to reason, but reason told him that it was useless to do so.

In the snow, Fang Yan slowly calmed himself down, in addition to the superficial merit in this matter, I am afraid that there are deeper reasons hidden in the meantime, if there is no one behind Feng Chong to support him, he will not dare to eat this credit in one bite. And whether there are other forces involved, or wrestling behind the scenes, or trying to fish in troubled waters, it is difficult to say, but what the dialect can do is wait.
