Chapter 142 All kinds of troubles started from then on

——Thanks to friends Jian Yu Qingchen and Qiao Yuran for their rewards. In addition, a friend mentioned the problem of the group, so I created a new one and reluctantly used it first, 213933048. Friends who are interested can join.

Shi Xuan took out the jade pendant for good deeds and handed it over directly: "This is Pindao's jade pendant for good deeds. It can prove Pindao's identity. You can show it to Chief Yu and you will know."

The shopkeeper carefully took the jade pendant of good deeds and looked at it carefully. When he saw that it was indeed something he knew, he nodded and bowed: "Exalted Immortal, please wait a moment. I'll go up and ask Master Yu."

Shi Xuan nodded: "Go on your own." Then he sat on the chair next to him under the guidance of the waiter, took the tea brought by the maid, took a leisurely sip, and then looked around at the Yu Family Trading Firm. .

In addition to the transportation of low-level medicinal materials and materials, the Yu Family Trading Company also engages in the business of buying and selling magical artifacts and elixirs. Anyway, the monks who escort the ships all have storage bags, especially the low-level ones who flow out of the Tianhuo Gate. Transporting high-level magic weapons to the Southern Barbarian Continent for sale, and then transporting Yaowang Sect's low-level elixirs overseas, is the most rewarding business.

As for the mid-to-high-level magical artifacts, materials, elixirs, spiritual herbs, and techniques, once the Yu family acquires them, they will immediately ask the masters in charge to contact the Penglai sect using Lingyin Feixun. The Penglai sect will make the selection first. The Penglai sect will not If needed, the Yu family will handle it themselves. Of course, the Penglai sect will not be greedy for the Yu family's spiritual stones. As long as they like it, they will pay 10% of the Yu family's purchase price. After that, the experts will take these goods through the teleportation array to the Three Islands Sea. If they are particularly precious, the Penglai Sect will arrange for high-level monks to escort them.

Therefore, the Yu Family Trading Company does not only deal in bulk transactions as Shi Xuan thought before. The store will appear sparsely populated. In fact, except for one store to receive distinguished customers, the other stores are for buying and selling magic weapons and materials, and the other is for buying and selling elixirs. , Lingcao, a jade slip selling martial arts, with people coming and going, and it was very lively.

The shopkeeper came down quickly. He was followed by a monk with half white hair. His appearance was somewhat similar to Yu Daodao. He was wearing the standard black robe of an outer disciple of the Penglai sect. When he saw Shi Xuan, he bowed: " It turns out that Uncle Shi arrived, and his disciple Yu Kaishan was at a loss." Then he respectfully handed Shi Xuan's jade pendant back with both hands.

"You are also a disciple of my Penglai sect. Since you are already in the Qi-entraining stage, why don't you enter the inner gate?" Shi Xuan took the jade pendant and asked a little strangely. The pressure of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on Yu Kaishan was very clear. From his cultivation level In terms of performance, it is even higher than Shi Xuan. I don't know whether it is a great achievement or a perfect one.

Yu Kaishan smiled self-deprecatingly: "It's a long story. Uncle Shi also invited me to talk upstairs." After speaking, he stretched out his right hand as a gesture of invitation.

Shi Xuan nodded. It was really not convenient to talk about some things in this crowded place, so he followed Yu Kaishan's footsteps and walked upstairs.

In a quiet room on the second floor, after two pretty maids with cat ears brought tea, Yu Kaishan carefully closed the door of the quiet room, then sat down and said with a wry smile: "Uncle Shi, please don't be offended. There are many people talking, and if the disciples say something, it will reach the ears of the clan leader in a few days."

Yu Kaishan's attitude brought him and Shi Xuan closer in an instant. Seeing that Shi Xuan wasn't surprised, he sighed and said: "In our Yu family, if we don't have extremely talented people, we can't count them." After entering the sect and reaching the Qi-entraining stage, you must return to the family to serve. You cannot enter the inner sect because the family needs manpower. Once you enter the inner sect and learn the five major techniques, you cannot leave the sect at will in the future. "

The inner disciples of the Penglai Sect are all busy with mundane duties. Apart from practicing, they have no extra time to serve the family. With this time, wouldn't it be better to do more mundane duties in exchange for some elixirs, or go together to explore the ruins and find Spirit grass, so the Yu family only carefully cultivates those with extremely talented people, so that they can reach the top in the sect and support the family in the future. As for ordinary disciples, they either cannot enter the sect, or after entering the sect, they return to the family during the Qi-entraining period. Yu Kaishan is one of the latter.

Shi Xuan couldn't say anything about the Yu family's rules, so he could only reply lightly: "Well, that's it."

After all, being a Daike, even if you have the support of the sect, is still very dangerous, because there are many casual cultivators who want to grab a vote and then hide. The world of cultivation is so big, how can your Yu family and Penglai sect really do it? You may not be able to find it. Therefore, in addition to hiring casual cultivators, the Yu family must also maintain their own strength, so as to deter others. Otherwise, it is not impossible for the hired casual cultivators to become robbers.

Yu Kaishan seemed to have finally met someone who was willing to listen to his complaints today, so he continued without asking Shi Xuan's purpose: "Hey, in the sect, you can often hear the sermons of all the masters and uncles. He solved the problems in his mind, so his cultivation progressed rapidly. Although the pressure was a bit greater, it was still better than the stagnation now. The disciple spent twenty-five years in the sect and broke through to the Qi-entraining stage at the age of forty-four. , and this year is already more than 120 years old, and he is still lingering on the great achievements of Qi, haha, but it is much better than those guys who cannot enter the sect. They often reach the age of sixty or seventy, and their bodies are about to fail. The entrainment period has just broken through.”

Shi Xuan took a sip of tea and then said: "Martial nephew Yu, don't be too worried. Think about it on the other hand, more than one hundred and twenty is a perfect way to draw Qi, and you have never had the opportunity to get a glimpse of the soul stage."

"I don't want to think about it anymore. If I were still in the sect, I might have reached the Soul Stage decades earlier. Even if I were in the family, if I could reach the perfection of Qi Attraction at around 100 years old, the family might really be willing to buy me a few Soul Concentrating Pills. But now, it's too late, too late." After Yu Kaishan finished speaking, he realized that he was only talking about himself and didn't ask Shi Xuan's purpose at all. He immediately said apologetically: "My disciple is excited and has suffered many setbacks. I haven't asked Uncle Shi why he came here?" "I have been traveling in the world for the past two years, and I don't know much about the news in the cultivation world. So I came here today, first, to tell the sect that I have arrived in Nanman, so as not to worry my master and fellow disciples; second, to ask if there are any major events in the sect and the cultivation world?" Shi Xuan told all his intentions. Yu Kaishan suddenly realized: "Uncle Shi, don't worry. Even if our Yu Family Business has not purchased valuable magic tools, materials, spiritual herbs, elixirs, etc., we will use the spiritual sound flying message to convey the news of the Nanman Continent to the sect every three days. Tonight, the news of your arrival will be conveyed to the sect."

The spiritual sound flying message technique is a Taoist technique for long-distance message transmission, with a maximum distance of tens of millions of miles. The Yu family helped the Penglai Sect to collect information on the Nanman Continent, and the sect would naturally give a secret treasure that can activate the spiritual sound flying message technique once a day.

"Thank you so much." Shi Xuan also knew about the spiritual sound flying message, so he came to the door.

"As for the sect, there is no big thing happening. It's just that in the past two years, some disciples have broken through to the Qi-inducing stage, such as Uncle Jie, Uncle Yu, Brother Jiang, and Brother Yu, etc. Haha, I heard that Uncle Yu is a good friend of Uncle Shi, and she is in seclusion now." Yu Kaishan only remembered the relationship between Yu Ruoshui and Shi Xuan later, so he mentioned it in detail.

Well, it seems that Yu Ruoshui has made good progress in cultivation after becoming his disciple. As for Zhou Dielan, her cultivation is a little worse than Yu Ruoshui's. It will probably take another two or three years for her to break through. Shi Xuan was very happy to hear the news from his friend. As for the fact that Yu Wendao also broke through to the Qi Induction Stage, he didn't care. Even if he reached the Qi Induction Stage, Shi Xuan would not be afraid: "Then I wonder how my master is doing?" "Master Mo is still the same. By the way, there is another major event in the sect. Because it happened two years ago, I forgot about it. Master Meng Li died because of his infatuation! Alas, there are only five Jindan Grandmasters left in the sect." Yu Kaishan has a strong sense of honor for the sect. The master was indeed amazing. He killed Meng Li directly. Shi Xuan's hidden worries were swept away. He felt more relaxed and his Qi became more active. "I wonder where Senior Sister Ming went on her trip?" Yu Kaishan was happy to hear this: "Uncle Ming has only been away from Pingbo City for half a month. I don't know if he went to overseas countries or traveled to the south. Uncle Shi, you just missed him." Shi Xuan originally just wanted to confirm Ming Qingyue's safety. Unexpectedly, the two of them almost bumped into each other from different places. However, Ming Qingyue's arrival in Nanman means that she has completed the most dangerous part of her journey. She no longer needs to be afraid of those crazy people from the Blood Demon Sect. Ming Qingyue took eight years to travel this distance. It was dangerous. Let's try to use the concentric jade pendant to see if we can get in touch. So Shi Xuan asked directly: "What about the cultivation world? What big things happened?" Speaking of this, Yu Kaishan's face became serious: "There are indeed several big things. First of all, the most popular news on the Nanman Continent is that two months ago, many people saw a peak on Changbai Fairy Mountain being struck by lightning." Changbai Fairy Mountain is the location of the Yaowang Sect. It is covered with snow and never melts all year round. In addition, the cultivators in the sect always fly in and out, so it is called Changbai Fairy Mountain by those mortals. Struck by lightning? Was it hit by a powerful person, or did the Yuanshen Zhenren fail to survive the tribulation? Shi Xuan also became serious and asked, "Is there any more accurate news?"

"No, Yaowang Sect has recalled many disciples, and the news is strictly blocked. The only thing that can be confirmed is that something big has definitely happened in Yaowang Sect. At the same time, Yaowang Sect is also closely arresting someone, but we don't know who it is. Our sect has also sent many disciples to sneak into Nanman to find out what is going on." Yu Kaishan said that the news was only this much.

Seeing this, Shi Xuan stopped asking. After all, this kind of thing has nothing to do with him for the time being. If there is any big thing, it is not something he can get involved in with his current cultivation. It is better to leave it to the sect's top leaders to worry about: "What other big things are there?"

"First, the Hunyuan Patriarch broke through to the Yinshen period and went into seclusion to practice. Master Yu is now the first on the Tianji list. Second, another ancient Yuanshen Zhenren's mansion was discovered in the Western Wilderness, which caused a lot of waves and many cultivators died, including a Jindan Grandmaster among the casual cultivators." Yu Kaishan paused, "This last thing is not big or small, and I still need your help, Master Shi."
