Chapter 81 The Three New Covenants, Danqiu Mountain Small Market (first order requested)
He has seen the daughter "Hongying" mentioned by Kou Liang. She is the second daughter of the Kou family and is only fourteen years old now.
Judging from her qualifications and age, Kou Hongying is extremely suitable to embark on the path to immortality.
How far you can go on the path to immortality is also related to your age at cultivating immortality. The earlier you embark on the path to immortality, the more time you can buy for yourself to practice.
“My spiritual qualifications are low, and it will be difficult for me to achieve success in cultivating immortals in the future…”
When the sound of joy stopped, Kou Liang, who was sitting on the stool, withdrew his smile, looked at Wei Tu and the others, and said, "There is only one thing on my mind right now, and that is to see Hongying come to the sect. ,To succeed."
“In this way, I can put an end to my lifelong desire to seek immortality.”
Hear this.
Wei Tu and the other two looked at each other in confusion, wondering what Kou Liang was trying to say.
Next.
Kou Liang's words completely cleared up the doubts in their hearts.
“My intention is for Hongying to join our charity society, or this alliance of cultivators, to help each other...”
“Hongying has middle-grade spiritual root qualifications and will not let the three sworn brothers suffer.”
Kou Liang said in a deep voice.
At this time, he also understood some basic knowledge of the world of immortality, and knew how difficult it would be to successfully build a foundation with his low-grade spiritual roots.
Basically, in his entire life, he has no chance to advance to the foundation building stage.
If you are lucky, you can reach the late stage of Qi training before the end of the year.
Without the opportunity, you will be stuck in the middle stage of Qi training or even the early stage of Qi training throughout your life.
Rather than doing this, it would be better to make an early decision and fully support his daughter, who is expected to be in the "foundation-building period".
The voice fell.
The three people in Wei Tu had different expressions.
Weitu frowned. He had no intention of agreeing to Kou Liang's request and accepting Kou Hongying into the game.
The four of them became brothers and became righteous brothers at that time. It was the result of a strange combination of circumstances.
Later, because Wei Fei obtained the Immortal Cultivation Techniques, the Immortal Cultivation Alliance was derived.
With more than 20 years of friendship and a certain amount of life and death tests, the four of them have a basis for mutual trust.
Even though Kou Hongying is a child that the three of them have watched grow up, they have a certain understanding of his character.
However.
Understanding and trust are two different things.
Cannot be confused with the same thing.
the last point.
In addition to trust, Kou Hongying's young age is also a big shortcoming, which means that in his initial cultivation, he will inevitably have to accept "aid" from their three uncles.
If Kou Hongying can repay these "supports" in the future, the three of them will certainly be happy to do so. They wish they could have more nephews with such high potential in their future generations.
But the crux of the problem is—Kou Hongying is not Kou Liang after all, and he has not established a foundation of trust with them. How could they lend Kou Hongying the immortal cultivation resources they depended on for their survival?
The three of Wei and Tu made eye contact. After waiting for a while, Wei Fei, the second brother who had a similar relationship with Kou Liang, bravely stood up and acted like a bad guy.
Wei Fei cupped his hands and said: "Brother, we understand Hongying's temperament, but... joining the alliance would be inappropriate..."
“Besides, brother, you are also in the alliance, whether Hongying joins or not, it doesn’t make any difference.”
“If the eldest brother really wants Hongying to join the alliance, the three of us will also need time to examine Hongying’s character... before we can decide whether to let Hongying join.”
Wei Fei said the first two sentences politely, but the last sentence was not very polite.
The meaning is very obvious.
"Yes, it was my negligence and lack of consideration." When Kou Liang heard this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face, and he scratched his head.
Seeing Kou Liang mention the matter of forming an alliance.
Weitu and the others also began to think about whether to continue this alliance of cultivating immortals.
At first, we made three major covenants and formed an alliance to cultivate immortals because it was difficult to find an immortal, and the strength of one person could not be compared to the strength of the crowd.
But now, it’s different.
Times have changed.
They have entered Xianjiafang City and truly entered the world of cultivating immortals. It seems that there is no need to maintain this alliance of cultivating immortals.
After all, the purpose has been achieved.
。
There is no banquet in the world that never ends.
In addition, the Xuanhe Tower where they gathered every June 13th was also burned down by the anti-king rebels during the war.
…
An hour later.
The four of them discussed and decided to maintain this alliance of cultivating immortals and help each other.
It’s the same sentence.
It is better to stay together as a group than to fight alone.
but.
The four of them also revised the old covenant according to the current circumstances.
Covenant 1: Every ten years, the four people agree on a place to reunite and exchange their cultivation experiences.
Including but not limited to Xianjia Kung Fu.
Covenant 2: If one of the four people is expected to break through the foundation building period, the others must do their best to provide support.
After the foundation building is successful, the other three people also need to be helped.
Covenant 3: If one of the four dies unexpectedly, the remaining people must help take care of his or her heirs.
In addition, if there are suitable candidates in the subsequent generations, they can also be absorbed into the charity society.
Three new covenants.
The four people from Wei Tu have set their ambitions in the "foundation-building period" instead of the previous "seeking immortals and visiting places".
…
After staying in Yulong Mansion for half a month.
Wei Tu and Fu Zhizhou did not stay long. After leaving the corresponding immortal cultivation techniques to their respective families, they returned to Danqiu Mountain.
Neither of them picked up their respective heirs and went to Danqiu Mountain to practice.
As the saying goes, wealth should not be revealed in vain.
They are now at the bottom of the world of immortality. According to common sense, it is difficult to maintain one's own cultivation. How can one have the spare time to spend spiritual stones to allow his descendants to enter Danqiu Mountain to practice.
Secondly, it is also feasible to practice internal martial arts, take the path of an innate warrior, and then transform into a qi-training monk.
Not necessarily, you have to go to Danqiu Mountain to practice.
Back to Danqiu Mountain.
Wei Tu and Fu Zhizhou came to Taixuanzong's office and handed the "descendence token" to Deacon Liu.
If casual cultivators registered in Danqiu Mountain want to go down the mountain, they need to go to the office to apply for a "descending token", so that they can go down.
Otherwise, if he is found to have gone down the mountain privately, he will be taken away by Tai Xuanzong's law enforcement team and put into prison.
In serious cases, those who have committed disasters in the ordinary world may even be directly killed by the law enforcement team.
This is also one of the reasons why Hu Yao and others, even though they are Qi Immortal Masters, still stay in the shanty town instead of going down the mountain to enjoy their wealth.
Place of origin is originally a means for power to restrict the flow of people.
Unless you reach the foundation building stage and become a true foundation building immortal family, you can enjoy the right to move without being restricted by your place of origin.
Happiness and longevity. has nothing to do with the lower-level monks.
Deacon Liu took the token and put it in his sleeve. He glanced at Wei and Tu, and after calculating the date, he smiled and said, "You two went home to visit relatives and only stayed in the mortal world for twenty-one days. This is considered to be seeking enlightenment." The seeds of a strong heart.”
“Thank you for the compliment, deacon.”
Wei Tu and Fu Zhizhou praised Deacon Liu.
When they left Danqiu Mountain, they were warned by Hu Yao not to use the quota for going down the mountain indiscriminately. Otherwise, if there was any emergency at home or any danger, without the quota or spiritual stones, they would have to call Tiantian Yingying and Di Di. The earth is no longer working.
"By the way, if the law enforcement team doesn't come to you within a month, it proves that you haven't caused any trouble in the world."
“In the meantime, don’t pay attention to the surveillance of the two of you.”
Deacon Liu reminded me.
…
Go back to the shed.
Wei Tu put down the bag and poured out the contents.
Hurrah!
I saw that the desk that was empty just now now had more than twenty pale white prismatic jade stones, as well as some rouge and gouache-like debris.
The last time he entered Danqiu Mountain, he and Fu Zhizhou only brought a dozen spirit stones with them to be safe, and the rest were buried in a hidden mountain col nearby.
This time, when he returned to Danqiu Mountain, he and Fu Zhizhou dug out the remaining spiritual stones and brought them back to Danqiu Mountain.
As for sundries such as rouge and gouache, he specially brought them with him after leaving Danqiu Mountain at the request of Hu Yao and others.
Although the credits for going down the mountain are not extremely precious to low-level monks like Hu Yao, it is obvious that they will not waste the credit on going down the mountain to purchase rouge and gouache.
In Danqiu Mountain, there are mundane things such as rouge and gouache for sale, but their prices are naturally much more expensive than in the mundane world.
“If you have a storage bag and can travel between the secular world and Danqiu Mountain, you can be a thief, buying and selling..."
Weitu had a desire in his heart for a fairy magic weapon like a storage bag.
Storage bags are often space artifacts that only monks in the late stage of Qi training are qualified to use. They are worth a lot of money. One bag can cost hundreds of spirit stones at least.
“The poorer you are, the fewer ways you can make money. The richer you are, the more ways you can make money…”
Wei Tu sighed secretly, got up and put the rouge, gouache and other sundries back into the cloth bag, then picked up the cloth bag and went out towards the shed where Hu Yao and others were.
"Where is Fellow Daoist Fu?" Hu Yao glanced at Wei Tu and saw that Fu Zhizhou, his long-time companion, was missing behind him, and she couldn't help but frowning slightly.
Sister loves to be pretty.
—Her willingness to help Wei Tu and Fu Zhizhou was inseparable from Fu Zhizhou's handsomeness.
“Brother Fu has other things to do, so when he left Danqiu Mountain this time, he had no time to go to a common shop to help Daoist Hu deliver things.”
Wei Tu shook his head.
Fu Zhizhou was born in a family of generals in Xiaoyi Prefecture. He was arrogant by nature. Although he was very polite to Hu Yao and not disrespectful of etiquette, secretly, he looked down upon Hu Yao and other prostitutes who "got something for nothing".
This time, it was not impossible for him to help Fu Zhizhou bring the things he bought to Hu Yao, but he could hide it for a while, but not for the rest of his life.
What is Fu Zhizhou’s attitude?
There is no way to deceive a female cultivator like Hu Yao who has experienced the world and has a special profession.
"Then I won't bother Daoist Fu next time." Hu Yao was thoughtful and forced a smile after hearing Wei Tu's words.
The feeling of being looked down upon is not pleasant.
Hu Yao invited Wei Tu to sit in the house, and cooked several dishes himself to entertain Wei Tu.
The two chatted for a few words.
“In two months’ time, there will be a small market in the shanty town, and the casual cultivators will set up stalls to sell their spiritual products…”
“Friends Wei Dao, you can prepare first.”
Hu Yao smiled and said.
“Small market?” Wei Tu was slightly surprised and quickly asked about the origin of this “small market”.
Hu Yao immediately explained: "Friends Wei Dao should know that casual cultivators like you and me who live in shantytowns cannot stay in Fangshi for a long time without permission."
Hear this.
Wei Tu nodded secretly.
—Last time Hu Yao tempted Deacon Liu and said that he would go to Deacon Liu’s private house, it was actually to stay in Fangshi for a longer period of time so that he could absorb spiritual energy and improve his cultivation.
“And the goods in the market stores are often extremely expensive. They take away resources from you and me casual cultivators, and sell them to you and me at high prices..."
Hu Yao paused and continued: "Over time, our casual cultivators in the shantytowns held private markets to trade their spiritual products to avoid being further exploited by shops in the market."
“Small market, held every six months. It is different from the large market organized by the city.”
Hu Yao added another sentence.
“Wei wants to master the magic of talismans. I wonder if there are monks selling talisman paper, spiritual ink, and talisman pens in the small market...”
“If so, please ask fellow Daoist Hu to contact Wei Duoduo and help build a bridge.”
As he spoke, Wei Tu flicked his sleeves and put a dozen grains of spiritual sand on the dining table.
A piece of spiritual stone can be exchanged for about thirty grains of spiritual sand.
Although he has a huge amount of money, a dozen grains of spiritual sand are enough to feed Hu Yao.
If there were more, Hu Yao might not be grateful, but might be greedy.
“Spells?” Hu Yao was slightly surprised when she heard this and looked at Wei Tu intently.
Among the various arts of cultivating immortality, although the Talisman Technique is not as difficult to learn and practice as the Alchemy, Formation, and Instrument Dao, this does not mean that the Talisman Technique is easy to learn.
Many monks often spend hundreds of spiritual stones practicing talismans, but it is difficult to draw an immortal talisman that can be sold.
She also practiced talismans, but after throwing in more than a dozen spiritual stones and still getting nowhere, she had no choice but to give up this business and turned to a prostitute in a shantytown to earn spiritual stones to support her practice.
—If you hope to cultivate spiritual fields and cultivate immortality, you will never be able to save enough spiritual stones to reach the foundation-building stage in your lifetime.
99% of those who can reach the foundation-building stage as casual cultivators have their own special skills.
"Okay, the slave family will help Daoist Fellow Wei, but after the matter is completed, if Fellow Daoist Wei succeeds in his studies now, he will need to get 90% off the talismans sold by the slave family..."
Hu Yao said with a smile.
“If Fellow Daoist Hu can get Wei some talisman paper, spiritual ink, talisman pens, etc., the price will be much lower than that of shops in the market...” Wei Tu thought for a moment, but did not agree immediately, and changed his mind.
If he could buy the tools used to practice talismans at low prices in the early stage... Hu Yao would be considered an investment in him, and a proper return would be considered a reasonable request.
After Hu Yao heard this, he immediately put his hands on his hands and said: "Then it's settled... The things used by Fellow Daoist Wei to practice the talismans will be given to Fellow Daoist Wei at a 60% discount even if the slave family pays an advance."
“60% off?”
Hearing the discounted price, Wei Tu nodded and agreed.
With his knowledge, he could tell that the advance payment Hu Yao said was just a joke.
Hu Yao should still make a lot of money here.
But it has nothing to do with him.
Money is earned endless.
With only a small price paid, he can achieve such a gain, and he will not care too much about it and appear stingy.
Wait until the banquet.
Hu Yao walked out of the shack and went to the vegetable field of the front house. She picked a few fresh melons, put them in a bamboo basket, and put the handle of the bamboo basket into Wei Tu's hand.
“The spiritual melons grown at home are not worth much, so they can be used as a thank you gift from fellow Taoist Wei for bringing something to the slave family this time.”
Hu Yao said.
Many thanks to the leader of Qingrou Daofeng for the reward.
Five more chapters are due.
Xiaohei remembered.
It should be repaid by the end of this month or early next month.
