Chapter 458 Rumors
"If you want to know, fellow Taoist, just ask directly. As long as we know something, we will definitely not hide it from you." Hearing that the other party was just passing by and not directed at them, the round-faced man was relieved.
Seeing that this round-faced monk had reached the eighth level of Qi Refining and seemed to be the leader among them, Song Qingming smiled at him, nodded and said, "I just went to the north, why didn't I see a single person? Tell me what's going on, are the monsters from Northern Xinjiang coming?"
Hearing that Song Qingming had come back from the north, the round-faced man and the other people beside him immediately showed a hint of surprise, and their eyes towards Song Qingming also became a little fearful.
"Fellow Taoist doesn't know about this. He probably hasn't been to this area for a long time. In fact, this matter has nothing to do with the monsters in Northern Xinjiang.
About seven or eight thousand miles north of here, there is a Baishui River. About three years ago, it was rumored that a monster near Baishui River suddenly advanced to the Golden Core realm. At that time, there were many first- and second-level monsters near Baishui River. He was so scared that he left there and went south, causing the number of monsters nearby to suddenly increase a lot.
Later, many demon hunting teams came here and almost lost their lives. Gradually, few people came here to hunt demons. Although the situation has improved a lot recently, few people still dare to continue going north from this direction.
The rest of us also came here this time because we happened to be in Fang City and received the mission to kill these two monsters. Fellow Taoist, if we continue walking a few hundred miles south, we should be able to see other monsters. Monk. "
After hearing the answer given by the other party, Song Qingming finally understood some of the things he urgently needed to know, and slowly let go of his worries.
"Thank you for your help in answering my doubts. We'll see you again then!" After Song Qingming finished speaking, his figure suddenly turned into a ray of blue light and shot through the air, quickly disappearing in front of everyone.
"Farewell, senior!" Seeing this scene, I had already guessed that Song Qingming was a round-faced man with a foundation-building master, and hurriedly led everyone to bow and salute in the direction where Song Qingming left.
"He just said that he went to the north, and I guessed it to be 70% or 80% accurate. This person is indeed a senior foundation builder. No wonder he looks so young and has such strength."
Hearing the round-faced man say this respectfully, Hu Yu on the side also felt a little scared. Fortunately, Song Qingming was not a fussy Foundation Establishment senior. Otherwise, he would have been so rude in front of him just now. For those high-ranking foundation-building monks, Hu Yu's fate today is hard to say.
"From now on, you kid, you have to control your mouth and stop offending people casually. If it hadn't been for that senior's generosity today, your kid's life would probably have been lost." After the round-faced man finished speaking, he glared at the man standing aside. Hu Yu.
"That's it, young people don't know how high the sky is, so don't be so impatient all the time, otherwise you will get into big trouble sooner or later!"
The other people were a little scared when they thought about what had just happened, and they all scolded Hu Yu.
Hu Yu on the side saw that everyone was blaming him, but he shook his head helplessly and said with a smile: "Hey! If I knew that he was a foundation-building monk, how could I dare to be rude to him.
This person is really strange. He is obviously a foundation-building monk. He just pretended to steal our prey. But in the end, he just wanted to ask a question and didn't want to pay us. He has already established a foundation and is still so stingy. "
They were companions who often hunted monsters together. No one really blamed Hu Yu. After saying a few words to him, and reminded by the round-faced man in the lead, everyone hurried forward to clean up the corpses of the two monsters not far away. .
Just when everyone was approaching one of the demon beast corpses, they suddenly saw a small cloth bag placed on one side of the demon beast's belly. Hu Yu, who didn't know what was inside, picked it up and looked at it. After one glance, he couldn't help but let out an exclamation, attracting several people nearby.
Everyone opened it and took a look, only to find that the bag was filled with colorful spiritual stones, at least hundreds of them.
"Thank you for the reward, senior!" After a few glances at Hu Yu, they saluted again in the direction Song Qingming left.
——
On a high mountain hundreds of miles away from Guiyunfang, two monks were discussing Taoism and drinking tea on the top of the mountain. There were more than a dozen young monks around them, standing respectfully and patiently listening to the teachings of the two above.
After a moment, a green shield light suddenly and quickly passed through the mountain, flying all the way south.
One of the two people who were discussing Tao, an old man in red robe, saw this scene and stood up with a look of astonishment. He looked at the green light that had flown into the distance with some disbelief.
Another middle-aged monk wearing a gray robe was a little surprised when he saw this and said: "Fellow Ancient Taoist, the person who just passed by here is a Jindan Master. I just heard a few days ago that Master Lu has just retreated. He Why did the old man appear here again today?"
The middle-aged man in gray robe had actually noticed that the cyan shield light that had just flown past was far faster than an ordinary foundation-building monk. It seemed that the speed of escape could only be achieved by a real person from Jindan.
However, his foundation building time was not long, and his cultivation level was only at the third level of foundation building. He also had some doubts about whether he had just seen it wrong, so he asked the red-robed old man who had a higher cultivation level.
After the green light in the distance completely disappeared, the old man in red robe turned around and nodded to the middle-aged man in gray robe: "This person is indeed a Jindan Zhenren, but this senior is not from your sect. Master Lu seems to be a strange Jindan senior that I have not seen yet."
"Unfamiliar Golden Elixir monks, ancient Taoist friends, you must not be mistaken. The recent demonic beast turmoil in Northern Xinjiang is approaching. How could there be Golden Elixir monks from other places entering the Fuyun Mountains? This is really strange.
Fellow ancient Taoist, there seems to be something fishy about this matter. I need to return to Guiyunfang quickly and report to Master Lu. I’ll take my leave first! "After the gray-clothed monk finished speaking, he immediately took out his flying sword and went straight to Guiyunfang.
After continuing to fly thousands of miles south, Song Qingming finally passed through the territory of the monsters and entered the territory controlled by the humans in the Immortal Cultivation World of the Wei Kingdom. Seeing that there were gradually more monks below, Song Qingming gradually felt calmer.
It has been almost six years since I went to the Fuyun Mountains for seclusion to form alchemy. I was really worried about what was happening outside, especially on the way back from Tandi Cave, not even a single monk was seen. , which made Song Qingming nervous for a long time.
What Song Qingming never expected was that while he was hiding in the depths of the Fuyun Mountains to form pills, he was rumored to have become a demon beast and advanced into the demon king. It also affected the demon beasts near the Baishui River to migrate south.
Having such a big impact on himself, Song Qingming felt a little helpless. He hid in Tandi Cave in seclusion for six years. Song Qingming had no idea what happened outside these years. Only after asking Hu Yu and others just now did he know some of the situation.
Fortunately, as Song Qingming expected, the monster turmoil in northern Xinjiang has not yet come, so he does not need to worry about the safety of the Song family. Now that Song Qingming has broken through the golden elixir realm, he has enough strength to protect his family through this monster turmoil safely.
Funiu Mountain, in the Song family meeting hall.
Song Qingyu, who had a headache on his face, was patiently listening to the elders of the Song family below, who took turns reporting on the family's income this year.
Because the monster beasts in the northern border are approaching again, the entire northern part of the Wei Kingdom has also begun to become turbulent. In addition, the two major foundation-building families, the Lu family and the Li family, have been causing trouble in recent years. The Song family's profits in several areas outside are higher than before. All have shrunk a lot.
Especially in Qinghefang, except for the family's newly opened winery, all the shops have suffered varying degrees of losses. Now the entire Song family's finances have suddenly fallen into a state of being unable to make ends meet.
Fortunately, Song Qingming has greatly reduced the family's external investment in the past few years and spent most of the spiritual stones on cultivating spiritual veins and digging spiritual fields within the family. Although the spiritual stone salaries of all monks in the Song family have been reduced, they Other cultivation resources have been allocated more generously than before, and this has not affected everyone's daily cultivation.
After the family discussion was over, Song Qingyu, with a slightly worried look on his face, came to the top of the mountain alone again.
It has been six years since Song Qingming went out to form pills. Although the Song family has not experienced any major crises in recent years except for some financial problems, as the days of demonic beast turmoil in Northern Xinjiang are getting closer, Song Qingyu still feels in his heart I often feel a faint sense of uneasiness.
A moment later, a figure in white came to Song Qingyu's side softly.
"I have just received a reply from Brother Sibo. He has persuaded Ancestor Shengyue to have an affair with Qinghefang. In a few days, he will invite us to go to Qinghefang to negotiate and see if we can solve it completely. It’s about the Lu and Li families.”
Song Qingyu squeezed out a smile and glanced at Huang Siyuan who came to her side, and slowly said:
"Sister-in-law, I have troubled you again. I hope the Huang family can really solve this matter this time. Now that the monster turmoil is coming, if the Lu and Li families continue to quarrel like this, they will definitely be at odds with each other in the future. , how can we work together to deal with this once-in-a-century disaster.”
Huang Siyuan nodded and said: "This is the letter sent to me by Sibo on his own initiative. Now that it is here, if Qinghe County continues to be so chaotic, I am afraid it will also cause displeasure on the Xiaoyao Sect, whether it is us or Huang and Gao. Everyone will definitely be implicated by that time.”
Ever since Song Qingming came forward to reconcile the Lu and Li families, the two families had been quiet for less than half a year before they started fighting openly and secretly again.
After Song Qingming went out to make elixirs, Song Qingyu also joined forces with Feng De who was stationed in Qinghefang several times to persuade the Lu and Li families to stop and make peace. What made her helpless was that each time after persuading the two families to reconcile for a period of time, the two families Soon a new round of fighting started over a trivial matter.
Song Qingyu felt deeply helpless about this, and in the past few years, she had continued to receive information from Song Xintang in Qinghefang back to Funiu Mountain. Behind the fight between the Lu and Li families, there seemed to be shadows of the Huang family.
