After the ceremony was over, Xiao Jinxuan introduced Qin Fengming and Qin Fengming into the main hall.
This hall is the ancestral hall where the Xiao family enshrines their ancestors' tablets. It is very spacious and is usually used as a place for important family discussions.
The protection of this palace is also extremely astonishing. Even the Chengdan monks could not imagine destroying it in a short time. Because when it was built, it was used as a refuge for the family in times of trouble.
This time, there was a sudden disaster and things were so hasty that only half of the clan members fled here.
Qin Fengming followed Xiao Jinxuan into this palace so easily, and he had to think deeply in his heart.
The restrictions in this palace were extremely astonishing. Whether there were any killing moves hidden inside, Qin Fengming and Qin Fengming had no idea. However, they saw that although Xiao Jinxuan's brows were slightly uneasy, there was no evil intention in his eyes.
But just in case, he still held dozens of talismans in his hand. At the same time, he also held a thin red needle in his hand. As soon as the opponent made the slightest movement, he took it out and beheaded Xiao Jinxuan.
kill.
The guests and hosts were seated, and Xiao Jinxuan immediately ordered the rest of the clan to serve tea.
"This time, my Xiao family was able to turn the crisis into safety, all thanks to the help of fellow Taoist Wei. I, on behalf of the Xiao family here, would like to express my gratitude to fellow Taoist Daoist again for his generous help."
After he finished speaking, he, together with the other three foundation-building monks, knelt down in front of Qin Fengming and paid homage.
Qin Fengming didn't dare to lift him up, so he immediately bowed and helped the four of them up, saying "I don't dare" in succession.
When everyone sat down again, Qin Fengming smiled slightly and said to himself: "This time, Daoyou Xiao's family happened to be in disaster. It was Wei who happened to pass by here and was heard by fellow Taoist, so he came here. This is also a fellow Taoist."
The family’s fate should not be cut off.”
"Sigh, if fellow Daoist Wei hadn't killed all the murderers with his amazing methods, it would have been impossible for our tribe to survive. This is a great kindness to our tribe, and Xiao will never forget it."
"But Mr. Wei heard before that this incident was caused by some ores. I wonder if this is true?"
Hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan and the others looked at each other, then glanced at Jiao Zhanshan beside Qin Fengming, and said without much hesitation:
"What my fellow Taoist said is true. A few months ago, a few middle-grade spiritual stones were excavated from a spiritual stone mine owned by my Xiao family, and a piece of spiritual stone was also discovered in that mine.
Spirit Stone."
Xiao Jinxuan also knew that it would be difficult to preserve the matter, so instead of concealing it without any credibility, it would be better to admit it readily. Facing the middle-aged man in front of him, he no longer had any intention of falling out with him.
"But I don't know what the spirit stone looks like. Wei has only seen the spirit stone in classics, but its specific appearance has never been seen with his own eyes. I wonder if Xiao Daoyou can take it out.
Let Wei Mou open his eyes?"
Seeing that the other party confirmed the matter so easily, Qin Fengming secretly admired him, so he immediately spoke.
"Haha, what's the trouble with this? Fellow Taoist, please take a look."
Xiao Jinxuan said, and with a wave of his hand, a simple jade box appeared in his hand. With a snap of his fingers, the lid of the box opened, revealing an irregular jade stone the size of a duck egg inside.
The surface of this jade stone is covered by a layer of colorful clouds, and traces of spiritual energy are emitted from the clouds. What kind of material is inside is difficult to see through with the naked eye.
Qin Fengming released his spiritual consciousness and shot it towards the jade, but what surprised him was that as soon as his spiritual consciousness came into contact with the layer of colorful clouds, it was immediately bounced back. It was difficult to penetrate even a little bit.
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, Mr. Wei wants to take a closer look. I wonder if you can trust Mr. Wei?"
Qin Fengming was also shocked by this mysterious ore. He was a weapon refiner, so he was better at the ore than others. When he suddenly saw this strange thing, he couldn't help but have a look of novelty on his face.
"Haha, fellow Taoist, please take a look."
Unexpectedly, Xiao Jinxuan did not hesitate at all. After hearing Qin Fengming's words, he immediately handed over the jade box in his hand and handed it into Qin Fengming's hands.
After taking the jade box, Qin Fengming couldn't help but look at it carefully for a moment, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
After a while, he closed the lid of the box again, returned it to Xiao Jinxuan with both hands, and said with a smile: "Yes, this is undoubtedly the legendary spirit stone. The value of this thing is great, but it is difficult to
Measuring it with spiritual stones, I never thought that such a strange thing would appear in such a poor place as Quzhou."
"Alas, although this thing is cherished very much, it is also a source of trouble. Without this thing, our Xiao family would not have suffered such a catastrophe. If fellow Taoist friends do not dislike it, my Xiao family is willing to donate this thing to fellow Taoists as a gift.
Let’s talk about some reward for being a fellow Taoist for helping me this time.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Fengming and Jiao Zhanshan were shocked at the same time. They had never thought that Xiao Jinxuan would say such a thing.
"It is absolutely impossible to do this. Wei came to help. Although fellow Taoist Xiao had made it clear that he would give the family property as a gift, but this thing is too precious, and Wei did not dare to accept it."
"Fellow Taoist, there is no need to refuse. If this thing is left in my Xiao family, it will definitely attract spies. This will be very detrimental to my Xiao family. Xiao also wanted to send it back to the clan, but the journey is too far.
, I was afraid of something going wrong on the way, so I never set out, which led to this tragic disaster."
"If fellow Taoist collects it, this hidden danger will be eliminated for our Xiao family."
Although Qin Fengming knew that what he said was not sincere, his words were extremely emotional. He couldn't help but smile slightly in his heart. Sure enough, none of these top foundation monks were economical people.
"Xiao family clan? Could it be that Fellow Daoist Xiao is a member of the Xiao family in Qianhuzhou?"
Seeing the other party mentioning the Xiao family clan, Qin Fengming asked in shock even though he had already deduced it.
"Yes, I have some clansmen who are originally an external branch of the Xiao family in Qianhuzhou. Although our ancestors are from a large clan, our clan has been getting weaker and weaker over the past tens of thousands of years, so we moved here as a last resort."
Hearing the other party's blunt admission, Qin Fengming was extremely excited. Although the Xiao clan has declined, their family heritage is still there, and the elixir he is looking for may still exist.
"In this way, if Fellow Daoist Xiao can give this spirit stone to the clan, it is very possible that it will be re-listed in the ancestral hall."
Qin Fengming's eyes flashed, he pondered for a moment, and said.
"What Fellow Daoist Wei said is somewhat true, but this matter is too difficult. Xiao just thought about it, but was unable to do it. Therefore, although it took many days to get it, it still remains in his hands."
Xiao Jinxuan sighed softly, his tone was a little lonely, and he said in a faint voice. His clan members have been thinking about returning to the ancestral hall for a long time. However, without great contribution to the clan, it is difficult for this matter to succeed. If this matter can really succeed,
Even if he gave away all the property of the family here, he would agree without hesitation.
"If Fellow Daoist Xiao can trust Wei, Wei can facilitate this matter."
As soon as Qin Fengming said this, everyone present was immediately shocked and their eyes widened, and they were speechless for a long time.
