Chapter 65 A bright future
The two sat opposite each other around the fire. Time passed quickly without realizing it. Song Qingming and Xu Ziyan were talking, and a white light gradually brightened in the sky.
Seeing that the sky was getting slightly brighter, Xu Ziyan said hello to Song Qingming, got up and prepared to return to the camp. After walking a few steps, she suddenly stopped again, as if she had thought of something, turned around and asked Song Qingming seriously .
"Fellow Daoist Song, I have one more thing to ask you. I heard from Junior Brother Wei Tong two days ago that you had a good relationship with Daoist Feng who died at the hands of the demon cultivator. I wonder if you know his descendants in Fang City. "
"Fellow Daoist Feng? You are talking about Old Ghost Feng, right? In fact, he and I have only met each other during our mission together in the past few months. I made an agreement with him in the next book and asked him to do a small favor after I came back this time. Unexpectedly, things in the world Impermanence, there is no such chance anymore, why does Captain Xu ask this?"
Xu Ziyan said: "Once a monk who performs tasks for the sect unfortunately dies outside, the sect will look for the monk's relatives and descendants to distribute spiritual gifts. Since I have taken over as the captain of the Eleventh Guard, I am now fully responsible for this matter. , the descendants of several other fellow Daoists have been found, but fellow Daoist Feng is the only one left. After issuing notices in the market, no descendants of his have come to collect the pension. I thought you were familiar with him. , so I’m asking you if you know where his descendants are.”
After Song Qingming thought for a while, he continued: "Captain Xu, you can ask fellow Taoist Jia Sixing. He has known fellow Taoist Feng earlier and may know something about him."
"Okay, thank you for the advice, Fellow Daoist Song. I don't know what Fellow Daoist Song needs help with. Why don't you tell me and let me know. Even if I can't help you, I can help you ask other people in the future." Xu Ziyan saw that Song Qingming was a little confused. What was on his mind, he kindly asked him.
After Song Qingming hesitated for a moment, he said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing special. When I first saw the puppet beast on Feng Daoyou, I felt envious. Later I learned that this puppet beast was from Bailong Mountain. I bought it on the black market. Because it was my first time to go out for training and I didn’t know how to get to Bailong Mountain, I made an appointment with him and used some spiritual objects to ask him to help take me to Bailong Mountain to try my luck. But I didn’t expect that, After the two of us made an appointment, before we even had time to set off, Fellow Daoist Feng didn't believe it was going to be bad." After finishing speaking, Song Qingming sighed with some disappointment.
Unexpectedly, after Xu Ziyan learned about Song Qingming's troubles, he glanced at him with a smile and said, "It's not a difficult thing for you. Bailong Mountain is not too far from Guiyunfang. I went there once a year ago. Brother Daoist Song, you If you want to go, I can just give you a map of Bailong Mountain."
"Don't you need someone to introduce you to the Bailongshan black market?" Song Qingming asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"Black market? Bailongshan is just a smaller market than Guiyunfang. It can't be considered a black market. Who did you hear this from?"
"After I came back this time, I also inquired about this matter with many shops in the market. I didn't expect that no one knew about Bailong Mountain. I thought that place is so mysterious that it should be a black market."
After hearing this, Xu Ziyan smiled sweetly and said: "You can't find out the news about Bailong Mountain. This is a normal thing. Bailongshanfang City was not established by our Xiaoyao Sect. It is a competitive relationship with our Guiyunfang. The sect The elders of the sect have long issued an order in the city, not allowing everyone to talk about Bailong Mountain in the city. That time I went to Bailong Mountain, I actually went there secretly with Junior Sister Gao without telling the master. Can you tell me about this? Don't talk nonsense, lest Junior Sister Gao cause trouble for you in the future."
After talking with Xu Ziyan, Song Qingming finally knew the specific situation of Bailong Mountain. After hearing the end, he couldn't help but touch his forehead.
According to Xu Ziyan, Bailong Mountain is a small city built jointly by several foundation-building cultivators near Guiyunfang decades ago. Its scale is much smaller than Guiyunfang, and slightly larger than Qinghefang. .
Bailong Mountain is closer to the Fuyun Mountain Range and is close to the border between the Fuyun Mountain Range and Weiguo. There are also many casual cultivators who have settled here.
In the past few decades, in order to compete with Guiyunfang, Bailongshanfang City has released many precious spiritual objects that are difficult to buy in Guiyunfang, attracting many monks near the Fuyun Mountains to go there. In the past few decades, Bailongshanfang City has developed The business is getting better and better, and it has also attracted some monks who used to live in Guiyunfang.
In order to minimize the impact of Bailong Mountain, Guiyunfang had no choice but to ban talking about Bailongshanfang City in the city. As a result, monks like Song Qingming who first came to Guiyunfang would naturally find it difficult to inquire in Guiyunfang. News to Bailong Mountain.
However, even if Guiyunfang uses this method to prohibit monks from talking about Bailongshan City, it will only have a temporary impact. Like Song Qingming, who can only hang around in the city for half a year at most, and after getting to know some acquaintances, he will naturally find out about Bailongshan City easily. news.
At the beginning, Old Man Shi and Old Ghost Feng deliberately described Bailong Mountain as a black market in front of Song Qingming. In fact, they wanted to take advantage of the information gap to get some benefits from Song Qingming.
It's just that although these two people have received some benefits, one is dead and the other is almost half-dead. Song Qingming is a little confused about whether to laugh or cry.
After getting the map of Bailong Mountain from Xu Ziyan, Song Qingming was grateful to her. After Feng Laogui died, Song Qingming could not find any news about Bailong Mountain in Guiyunfang, and he felt a little disappointed. Unexpectedly, after meeting Xu Ziyan today, things suddenly took a turn for the better.
After dealing with Xu Ziyan in the past few days, Song Qingming also found that she gave him some different feelings.
Although Xu Ziyan was also an inner disciple of Xiaoyao Sect, she was not like most of the cultivators of Xiaoyao Sect, who looked down on them from small families. Even when facing Song Qingming, whose cultivation was much lower than hers, Xu Ziyan treated him with courtesy and never looked down on him.
Unconsciously, Song Qingming also had some good feelings for her.
After giving the map of Bailong Mountain to Song Qingming, Xu Ziyan returned to the camp and directed everyone to pack up and continue on their way.
After walking for another three days, everyone came to the area assigned for this mission.
This time, because the 11th Guard monks had just suffered a heavy blow, and the newly joined Xiaoyao Sect disciples were still lacking in experience, Liu Xingfeng, who arranged the task, specially allocated a relatively safe area for them.
This mission lasted for more than two months, and everyone did not encounter any major crises. Only a few times, the newly joined Xiaoyao Sect disciples accidentally provoked a few difficult high-level monsters, and the situation was a bit embarrassing.
However, after they sent out a distress signal, Xu Ziyan quickly took action personally and easily resolved the situation. No one was injured until they returned to Guiyunfang to rest.
The original captain of the 11th Guard, Lu Yunfei, assigned tasks more casually and never left the camp except for necessary support.
In contrast, Xu Ziyan, who took over, acted much more meticulously. He would carefully consider the candidates when assigning tasks, and would often go to the vicinity of their mission area to protect and guide those monks with less experience.
More than two months later, Song Qingming and his team, who had successfully completed the mission, returned to Qinghefang again. After this mission, they also had more than half a month of rest time. After returning to Guiyunfang again, Song Qingming did not rush to Bailong Mountain. Instead, he was unusual and began to sit in the Feiyunwei station all day.
