Chapter 304: Hermitage, Image of Wei Tu (6k big chapter, please subscribe)

Not long after leaving Shanzhai, Wei Tu flew to Qingdu, which is now the capital of the Zheng Dynasty, which was the former Qingfeng Prefecture.

Just like what he did in Changshan County of Jingguo, he also looked for a foundation-building magic cultivator similar to "Qian Hong" in Qingdu.

The name of the foundation-building demon cultivator this time is "Liu Fu". He is a casual cultivator among the demon cultivators. He is not a member of the five sects of the demon path, but he has a considerable status near Qingdu.

Hearing that Wei Tu, a senior in the Demonic Way, wanted to ask him to do some small things, Liu Fu immediately felt happy, smiled like a flower on his face, and agreed repeatedly.

"Senior, don't worry. This is a small matter. I will go say hello tomorrow... no, I will say hello later. I am just a young child. My fellow Taoists will not say anything else." Liu Fu patted his chest and said.

Qingfeng Prefecture has a population of one million. One less child from a single family and one more child from a single family will have no impact at all on the Meng brothers behind Children’s Education.

With no effort, he could get a lot of reward and the favor of a senior Jindan, and Liu Fu was happy to be a peacemaker.

“I just don’t know what your Taoist name is, senior. After I know it, I can scare the Meng family brothers and prevent them from having delusional thoughts.”

Liu Fu looked up at Wei Tu and asked cautiously.

Favors that cannot be converted into cash are not considered favors and are of no use.

Only by knowing Wei Tu's name can he have the opportunity to realize this favor in the future.

“I’ve been in trouble recently and it’s hard to reveal my identity. Otherwise, given my status alone, would I still need to find you as a middleman?”

Wei Tu snorted coldly and said dissatisfied.

—He is now disguised as a dark-skinned old man, so he calls himself old man.

"Yes, senior. It's the junior who didn't think carefully." Liu Fu didn't get angry when he heard this scolding, but still had an apologetic smile on his face.

Liu Fu thought about it for a moment and felt that this was the truth. If Wei Tu hadn't caused any trouble, how could he use his power as a small foundation-building casual cultivator to help him solve his difficulties?

It was the inconvenience of going there in person that gave him the opportunity to serve for this purpose!

As for the trouble…

Which magic cultivator doesn't kill people or get into trouble?

There are very few demon cultivators who do not cause trouble.

Wei Tu is still alive and well now, which proves that this senior has not gotten into big trouble. Since he didn't get into big trouble, there was no need for him to worry.

No matter how much we liquidate him, it will not be enough to liquidate him, a little demon cultivator who has only met him once.

“Senior, this junior is going to do some work now, and you just wait for the good news from this junior.”

Liu Fu nodded and bowed.

After finishing speaking, Liu Fu walked out of the house and started doing things at Wei Tu's signal.

…

After Liu Fu leaves.

Wei Tu was not at ease with Liu Fu. He waved his sleeves and robe and once again disguised himself as a strong man with a purple face. He then firmly locked onto Liu Fu's aura and followed him into a remote mansion in Qingdu.

This mansion seems to have its own unique world.

Liu Fu walked to a stone wall in the inner room, stretched out his hand and pressed it lightly. He heard a mechanical sound, and a jade door full of runes was revealed inside the stone wall.

"Open!" Liu Fu punched a magic spell into the jade door, and the jade door opened in response, revealing a gray stone staircase leading below.

Subsequently, Liu Fu walked into the Jade Gate.

After a pause, the Jade Gate will automatically close. The stone wall returned to its original state again.

“Could this place be a secluded place for demon cultivators near Qingdu?” Wei Tu frowned.

He did not think that Liu Fu would dare to take the risk of exposing him, a senior Jin Dan.

Doing this kind of thing will not benefit him at all, and it will also lead to death.

The greater possibility is that this place is a secluded place for the Meng family brothers and other demon cultivators.

This is not an unfounded speculation on his part.

While traveling in Jingguo, he saw many examples of demonic cultivators building hermitages in mundane areas to maintain daily cultivation.

—Righteous monks are not interested in spiritual materials in the eyes of demon cultivators such as mortals, so the separation between immortality and mortals is serious.

But the magic cultivator is different.

 Mortals are spiritual materials in their eyes. Every time a certain period of time, a batch of spiritual materials must be harvested, so demon cultivators have the need to live in the mortal world for a long time.

Over time, demonic cultivators in ordinary areas will live in groups and build "hermitages" without delaying their daily cultivation in the ordinary world.

High-level hermitage places will imprison spiritual veins just like the casual cultivator alliance. Low-level hermitage places only have a complete set of spirit gathering arrays.

The spiritual energy in Qingdu is thin and cannot meet the daily needs of foundation-building demon cultivators. Therefore, it is normal for there to be a hermitage here.

After the tea time.

The purple-faced strong man in Wei Tu's disguise also walked near the stone wall, followed Liu Fu's pattern, entered a magic formula, and walked inside.

Walking down the gray stone steps at the Jade Gate, after walking for about three or four breaths, Wei Tu saw an open stone door.

At the stone gate, there were several beautiful and scantily clad female Qi practitioners standing.

Looking inside from the stone gate, you can see a row of shops, including a pill shop, a weapon refining shop, a wine shop, a gambling stall, etc.

“It is indeed a hermitage place.” Wei Tu stepped into the stone gate and instantly sensed the aura within it that was no less than that of a second-level spiritual land.

"This senior looks strange to me. I wonder which sect he is an expert in?" The female Qi practitioner on the left stepped forward and greeted Wei Tu with a smile on her face.

Hermitages are different from each other. Generally, only regular customers come in, and it is rare to see strange magic cultivators.

“A casual cultivator.” Wei Tu’s tone was cold, and he looked like he was not easy to get along with.

“Senior, do you want to buy elixirs, magic weapons, talismans, or rent a cave?”

The female Qi practitioner asked again.

"I heard that Qingdu will hold an auction or trade fair soon, so I came here to take a look." Wei Tu lied casually.

Auctions and trade fairs are held by major chambers of commerce at regular intervals.

For monks, it is a common thing.

It’s almost the same as eating and drinking.

Therefore, he said that he was here because Qingdu was going to hold an auction and trade fair, and no one would find fault with this matter.

Even if he didn't, he would just think that he heard the wrong news and came to the wrong place.

“Jiuyun Chamber of Commerce will hold an auction in Danqiu Mountain outside Qingdu in half a month. This senior, maybe he heard the wrong place.”

The female Qi practitioner said with a smile.

“Jiuyun Chamber of Commerce?” Wei Tu was surprised when he heard this familiar name of the Chamber of Commerce.

Although he knew that there was collusion between the Jiuyun Chamber of Commerce and the Demonic Cultivators, he did not expect that after the fall of the Zheng Kingdom, the Jiuyun Chamber of Commerce would still continue to trade in the Zheng Kingdom "openly".

This reminded Wei Tu of the Yunyan Chamber of Commerce that had dared to hold an auction on the border of Jingguo.

Jiuyun Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce affiliated with Yunyan Chamber of Commerce.

“Perhaps he is getting close to the ancestor of the Demon Sect Yuanying.” Wei Tu thought secretly.

Other than the possibility of being with the ancestor of the Demon Sect Yuanying, he really couldn't imagine how powerful the Jiuyun Chamber of Commerce and the Yunyan Chamber of Commerce were to be able to do business safely in the Zheng and Jing kingdoms surrounded by demons.

After talking to the female qi cultivator in charge of reception, Wei Tu immediately walked into the hermitage of demonic cultivators under Qingdu.

With the colorful phantom moth providing the direction, Wei Tu found Liu Fu who came in first without much effort.

At this time, Liu Fu walked into a cave with a plaque with the word "Meng" on it. Inside, he was drinking and having fun with two demon cultivators wearing blood robes.

In the cave hall, there is a group of beautiful dancers in thin clothes, dancing gracefully.

However, there is not a single bit of cultivation in these beautiful dancers.

You can tell at a glance that they are all mortals.

Liu Fu moved his eyes away from the delicate parts of the dancer's body. He laughed a few times and said, "Brother Meng, Liu came here this time because he has something important to ask of you. I hope Brother Meng can agree to it."

"Is it important?" The man in blood robe sitting on the main seat had his eyes shining brightly. He played with the wine cup in his hand and said with a smile: "I wonder what the important thing that Brother Liu is talking about is?"

"If it can be done, my two brothers will never refuse." He said quite boldly.

Hearing this, Liu Fu told him one by one what he had been entrusted by Wei Tu.

“The Shan family from Sanyuan Township once had a relationship with Liu…Although the favor was not heavy, Liu did not want his child to die in infancy.”

As he spoke, Liu Fu turned his palms, took out two high-grade spiritual stones, and placed them on the table.

“This is two hundred spirit stones, even if Liu invites two fellow Taoists to drink.”

Liu Fu was very confident about this matter. He believed that the Meng brothers would give him face.

After all, they are both Foundation Establishment monks, so they will not cause trouble over such a trivial matter, and he did not let the Meng brothers suffer this time.

But the eldest son of the Meng family, who was sitting in the seat, immediately showed a look of embarrassment on his face.

He said: "It's not that Mr. Meng doesn't show off Brother Liu's reputation, but that the higher-ups are pressing **** these infant souls. We two brothers have finally selected a group of soul boys. If one person is missing, the higher-ups will blame me. My brother The two of them can’t afford it.”

Hearing this, Liu Fu’s eyes suddenly became sharper.

He was respectful and humble in front of Wei Tu because Wei Tu was a senior Jin Dan.

But who are the Meng brothers who dare to insult him like this, deliberately shirk and deceive him?

As a Magic, he didn't know the arrest of young children, but it was just a saying of the Mongolian brothers.

However, Liu Fu had to compromise due to work constraints.

He suppressed his anger and said, "Liu is willing to choose another soul boy on Brother Meng's behalf to make up for the shortfall."

"No!" The second son of the Meng family immediately stopped him, "Five sects have issued strict orders, prohibiting us from doing anything we want to do to the common people. The matter of harvesting raw materials must be left to the government..."

“Brother Liu, if you arrest young children, this is equivalent to violating the ban. What should I do if my two brothers are implicated?”

This reason is reasonable and prevaricating. Even Liu Fu, a good person, doesn't know what to say in reply at this time.

Liu Fu also didn’t expect that the Meng brothers would learn to speak in official accent after spending a long time in the secular court.

"This son Liu must be rescued. How can fellow Taoist Meng be willing to let him go?" Liu Fu was silent for a moment, and his tone became slightly colder.

“Easy! Five hundred spirit stones.”

The second son of the Meng family laughed out loud and made a "five" sign to Liu Fu with his finger.

Five hundred spirit stones?

Liu Fu frowned deeply. This price was almost close to what Wei Tu paid him.

Five hundred spirit stones are naturally worth the five hundred spirit stones entrusted by a senior Jindan, but the Meng brothers don’t know about Wei Tu, so they are obviously trying to kill him like a sheep and want to take a cut of him.

"Okay, five hundred spiritual stones." Liu Fu said nothing more and took out three high-grade spiritual stones again.

“Brother Liu, have fun!”

The eldest son of the Meng family finally spoke at this time. He said with a smile on his face: "The matter of the Shan family's child will be taken care of by Meng. Tomorrow, the government will issue an order to expel him from the children's school."

“It would be better to sign a spiritual contract.”

Liu Fu's face was stern. He took out a spiritual deed and handed it to the boss of the Meng family.

As a demon cultivator, he does not believe in the credibility of the Meng family brothers. In particular, these two men just now used Shan's young boy as an excuse to extort five hundred spirit stones from him.

“It’s natural.”

The boss of the Meng family did not refuse and put his own magic power stamp on the spiritual contract.

The business is done.

Liu Fu didn't stay in the Meng brothers' cave for long. He just found an excuse and left.

However, when Wei Tu saw this scene and paid attention to it with his spiritual consciousness, he did not leave.

He just heard the message from the two Meng brothers and knew that they had some doubts and curiosity about Liu Fu's affairs.

After Liu Fu leaves. The second son of the Meng family, who was sitting in the second seat, grinned and said, "Brother, why do you think this man named Liu suddenly begged for love for a mortal?"

“And once you take action, it’s five hundred spirit stones?”

Five hundred spirit stones are no longer a small amount for a foundation-building demon cultivator with no skills.

Elixirs for increasing mana in the foundation-building realm only cost a few hundred spirit stones each.

It is said that Liu Fu is on the right path, because he has a relationship with a mortal and has some kindness, so he is willing to save his son's life... The second son of the Meng family can still believe it.

But Liu Fu was a demon, so he had no sense of morality that would make him willing to spend five hundred spirit stones to save a mortal with little connection.

"The reason why Liu Fu saved the youngest son of the Shan family is not just as simple as he said. He can produce five hundred spirit stones... maybe he can earn more."

The boss of the Meng family narrowed his eyes.

“Brother, what you mean is...”

The second son of the Meng family heard the underlying meaning of the eldest brother's words.

"The Shan family may be related to a certain monk, and this person asked Liu Fu for help."

The eldest son of the Meng family expressed his inner speculation.

At this point, Wei Tu, who had just had the murderous intention because of the Meng family boss's words, turned his palm to withdraw the magic power in his palm, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He also mistakenly thought that the boss of the Meng family had guessed that he, the golden elixir monk, was behind the Shan family.

He never thought that he simply thought that the Shan family had something to do with the monks, so he turned to Liu Fu.

These two events seem to have the same result, but the fluctuations they cause are very different.

 The former may arouse the vigilance of the top leaders of the five demon sects, and even find out his identity as "Wei Tu", but the latter is just a small talk in the foundation-building demon cultivator circle and will not cause a big disturbance.

"Then we can make a fortune..." The second son of the Meng family licked his lips and said happily.

He wanted to bypass Liu Fu and squeeze out the monk who helped the Shan family.

"The spiritual contract has been signed. There is no need to offend Liu Fu to death. Although Liu Fu is a casual cultivator, rabbits can bite people when they are anxious. These five hundred spiritual stones are probably most of the monk's net worth."

The boss of the Meng family waved his hand.

He believes that the monks who help the Shan family are at the Qi training level at most, and cannot be the foundation building level.

If it was the foundation building realm, Liu Fu would not be entrusted to come to help, but would come to find it himself.

The net worth of a Qi-training monk is at most a few hundred spirit stones.

In this process, no matter how greedy Liu Fu was, he would not have much oil and water left in him.

There is no need to go overboard.

The boss of the Meng family has never thought that the monk standing behind the Shan family is not in the Qi training realm, but in the Golden elixir realm.

After all, a golden elixir demon cultivator can crush him to death with one finger. How can he let Liu Fu be the middleman and lobbyist?

However, it was exactly what the boss of the Meng family had in mind that Wei Tu, who was eavesdropping on the side, did not step forward to take his life. Instead, he covered his body and left quietly.

At the time of their death, the Meng brothers probably could not have imagined that in just a moment, they had already stepped into **** with one foot.

…

The next day.

Special officials from the government went to Shanzhao in Sanyuan Township and announced the government order to send Shan Changxin's young son "Shan Cong" out of the boy's school.

The order is issued.

Shan Changxin and his wife cried with joy.

The villagers who did not know the actual situation only thought that Shan Cong was naughty and that was why he was expelled from the Children's School. They did not know that the so-called Children's School was actually a devil's cave.

“Cong’er, from now on, you will learn the Tiger and Crane Double Shape Boxing from your father, and gain a reputation in martial arts, so that you can honor your ancestors.”

Shan Changxin led Shan Cong into the third courtyard of Shanzhai, placed a special small stone lock in front of Shan Cong, and said with a smile.

“Yes, Dad!”

Shan Cong responded obediently.

 He ​​didn’t know the difference between practicing writing and practicing martial arts, nor did he know that his family now had a magic book that could lead to the path to immortality.

"Bah! Bah! Bah! Don't dare to talk nonsense anymore. We won't take the merit test. Just be good at home."

The young woman made a soft noise and said hurriedly.

“That’s fine, I won’t take the martial arts test anymore. I’ll learn from Shi Ming, the golden swordsman, and travel around the world with a sword, act chivalrously and righteously, and be a dignified man.”

Shan Changxin touched the horns of his youngest son, thought of the characters mentioned in the preface of "Lianmui Sutra", said with a smile on his lips.

Hear the name "Shi Ming".

Wei Tu, whose figure was hidden on the side, had a few complicated colors flashing in his eyes.

This Golden Sword Hero Shi Ming is Shan Wuju’s master and his ancestor.

Now, the "Marrow Lian Jing" has been returned to the Shan family, and he has secretly cleansed Shan Cong's marrow and cut his bones - the descendants of the Shan family are making steady progress, and they will definitely inherit the legacy of his master Shan Wuju, break through the innate realm, and get a glimpse of the path to immortality.

But whether Shan Cong can make a difference in his journey to immortality depends entirely on his luck.

He can't help with this.

After all, Shan Cong is only the fourteenth generation grandson of Shan Wuju, and his genetic relationship with Shan Wuju is already very far.

Let alone him.

"I give you three spiritual talismans. If you are in danger, you can open them and kill the enemy."

When leaving, Wei Tu hesitated. He took out two third-level attack talismans and a third-level defensive talisman from his sleeves, and used his magic power to place them on the Shan family's ancestral hall.

At the same time, he used the technique of sound transmission to inform Shan Changxin on how to use these three talismans.

After saying this, Wei Tu no longer stayed for long. He flicked his sleeves and robe and flew away from Sanyuan Township.

Being sold into the Li family since he was young, he has a bad relationship with his relatives. Only Shan Wuju, his master, is like a master and a father to him.

But it’s a pity.

When he was serving as the garrison of Ximen, Shan Wuju passed away due to old age.

The connection between the Shan family and him was cut off.

Later, although he had correspondence with Shan Yangong. But as time went by, the communication between the two parties became less and less.

To this day.

In addition to this old house, the Shan family has no other familiar sights or familiar people.

After leaving Sanyuan Township, Wei Tu took a trip to the county seat of Qingmu County.

“Huh? This old courtyard is still there?” After arriving in Qingmu County, Wei Tu came to the small courtyard that he and Xinghua had purchased before.

He saw that every plant and tree here was still the same as before, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

Although this small courtyard is made of bluestone and bricks like a single house, if no one lives in it and it is not repaired, it will collapse after more than a hundred years at most.

Even if someone lives in it and repairs it, the residents will not remain exactly the same as before.

As Wei Tu stepped back, his consciousness swept away and he saw that there was a door at the entrance of the small courtyard, so he took a step forward to find out who the owner of the house was.

“This is the Yue family’s house.”

The disciple saw that Wei Tu was dressed in an extraordinary way and looked like a noble person, so he spoke humbly.

Yue family?

Wei Tu shook his head secretly and couldn't remember any one with the surname Yue that he had any relationship with.

He asked which family he belonged to.

“You don’t know about the Qingmu Yue family?” Menzi looked surprised. He lowered his voice and said, “It’s the Yue family of the fourth generation and three nobles! This residence is the old residence of the ancestors of the Yue family.”

Hearing this, Wei Tu was a little surprised and puzzled again.

Isn’t this old house his and Xinghua’s old house? How did it become the old home of the ancestors of the Yue family?

Moreover, this Yue family is still the fourth generation and the third prince of the dynasty, and the nobles of Tianhuang?

With doubts, Wei Tu went to a nearby bookstore and looked through Feng Chao's "Clan Chronicles".

After a while, he saw the record of the "Aoki Yue Family" in the "Princes Chapter" of "Clan Chronicles".

The Qingmu Yue family originated from the State of Zheng. Their ancestor "Yue Jing" was once a minor official in the Yamen of Xiangjun. Later, due to the great chaos in the world, he followed Taizu Fengchao and was named a fourth-rank general.

Then, the Yue family has good tutoring skills. After Yue Jing, there were more capable people in the Yue family, who continued to inherit the wealth and honor of their descendants, and made their wives and children their wives.

To this day, three of the four generations of the Yue family have been granted the title of marquis due to their military exploits.

Since then, the name of the Qingmu Yue family has spread thousands of miles, and eleven years ago, it was included in Fengchao's "Clan Chronicle".

Mentioned Yue Jing.

Weitu finally has a memory.

At that time, it was he who made the decision to betroth Caixia to Yue Jing and become his wife.

When Caixia proposed to marry, there were two candidates. One was Quanshun, who had an innocent fortune and ran a tea business, and the other was Yue Jing.

He was originally not optimistic about Yue Jing, because he ran errands for the Yamen and had a smart personality. He was worried that Caixia would be unable to control her after marrying him and would suffer a big loss.

Unexpectedly, Yue Jing took advantage of the chaos in the world and rose up to become a fourth-rank general in the Feng Dynasty.

The Yue family he left behind continues to this day and has become one of the famous families in Zheng State.

“I never thought that the descendant of a former yamen errand boy and a maid might become a high-ranking and powerful person.”

Wei Tu thought secretly.

He also had this change. From a horse slave to today's True King of Golden Core.

But when Caixia and Yue Jing were far apart, he could clearly feel the shock and the power of time.

After reading "Chronicles of the Clan", Wei Tu returned to his old house and recalled every detail of the past with Xinghua.

However, not long after he arrived, a young man in white arrived at the door in a light carriage and walked into the old house.

“Uncle Wang, where is the man in green shirt that you mentioned that doesn’t look like a man in the world?” The young man in white looked around eagerly.

As one of the famous families in the Zheng Kingdom, Yue Ziguang already knew that there were monks in the world.

Over the years, the Yue family has been preparing to improve their family status and transform from a wealthy family into a family of immortals.

Now, after finally bumping into a monk who was suspected of being a cultivator of immortality, how could Yue Ziguang let go of this great opportunity so easily.

“Fourth Young Master, he was here just now, but he may have left suddenly.”

Menzi replied quickly.

"What a pity." Yue Ziguang sighed and shook his head, preparing to turn back the same way.

But at this moment, another middle-aged man wearing a python robe and a gold crown walked in outside the door.

“Dad.” Yue Ziguang bowed.

This person is none other than Leshan Hou Yue Changzhong, the head of the Qingmu Yue Family.

“Zi Guang, since you have arrived at the ancestral home, go inside and pay homage to your ancestors. Don’t forget how our in-law family got rich.”

Yue Changzhong glanced at the old house and walked into the inner hall of the main house.

“Yes, dad.” Yue Ziguang responded and followed Yue Changzhong in.

In the inner hall of the main house, three portraits hang impressively. In the middle is a portrait of a young warrior, and the portraits on the left and right are of two young women.

“Dad, why is it that the portrait of a person with the surname Wei and not Yue is worshiped here?” Yue Ziguang raised his head and glanced at the three portraits. When he saw that the portrait of the warrior in the middle was named "Wei Tu", he couldn't help but be surprised.
