The temporary market lasts for half a day. During the Qi training period, the monks conduct transactions on a flat piece of land on Yuquan Peak. There are temporary stalls set up by the Zhou family. Anyone can freely choose a stall to put things for sale. The Zhou family does not charge any fees.
.
Zhou Yang and the others, the foundation-building monks, held a small exchange meeting in a hall on the mountain. The rules were basically the same as the exchange meeting held by the Chen family.
The Zhou family, as the organizer, also brought out two third-level magic weapons this time as inducements, and bluntly stated that they could be exchanged for spiritual stones.
Spiritual stones can be exchanged for third-level magic weapons. The foundation-building monks present at the meeting were all interested and rushed to buy them at higher prices. However, although these people were competing, they all maintained restraint and did not raise the prices too high.
.
In the end, the two third-level magic weapons that the Zhou family took out were sold at a price slightly lower than the price in the store by 20%, and the Zhou family gained seven to eight thousand spiritual stones.
Of course, what comes in comes out. For the treasures brought out by some foundation-building monks at the exchange meeting, once a treasure appears that attracts the three monks of the Zhou family, they will not hesitate to exchange it.
Zhou Yang used a second-grade high-grade puppet beast to obtain a prescription for a second-grade high-grade spiritual elixir "Qing Ling San" from a casual cultivator.
This "Qing Ling Powder" elixir has a very special effect. It is specially used by monks during the Qi training period to regulate erysipelas in the body.
Assuming that a seventh-level qi-training monk can normally take pills that increase his cultivation level only once a year, then after taking "Qingling Powder", he can take pills once every six months.
However, medicines are resistant to drug resistance. Although "Qingling Powder" can help monks in the Qi training period get rid of erysipelas, it itself cannot be taken too much.
According to what is said on the elixir prescription, after a monk takes more than ten servings of "Qingling Powder" during the Qi training period, he can no longer rely on this medicine to eliminate erysipelas.
Although it has the disadvantage of drug resistance, which is not a disadvantage, the importance of "Qingling San" is still undoubted.
If the monks from the Zhou family and later can have this spiritual elixir to help them in their practice, the possibility of reaching the ninth level of Qi training before the age of sixty will be greatly increased.
"Qingling Powder" is so good, why can Zhou Yang exchange it for a second-level high-grade puppet beast?
The reason is that other family monks who participated in the exchange meeting also joined the fight after this elixir recipe appeared. In the end, everyone had to offer a treasure to the elixir recipe owner in exchange for the elixir recipe, and made him swear that he would never use the elixir recipe again in the future.
to resell to others.
In this way, after more than an hour of taking turns to exchange, this small exchange meeting came to a successful end. Then, regardless of whether they had gained something or not, the foundation-building monks said goodbye to the several foundation-building monks of the Zhou family.
After seeing off these foundation-building monks, Zhou Yang walked towards the temporary market at the foot of the mountain, ready to see if he could gain anything there.
However, what he didn't expect was that as soon as he arrived at the open space of the temporary market, Zhou Xuantai, the elder of the Zhou family who presided over the market, hurried over and reported an important matter to him.
"Where are those two people now?"
Zhou Yang looked at Zhou Xuantai with a solemn expression and asked, with a faint hint of excitement in his eyes.
Zhou Xuantai also knew the importance of the matter, and said immediately: "After I learned the news from their mouths, I moved them to the ancestral temple and asked the eighth sister to keep an eye on them."
"Very good. Second uncle, just continue to preside over the affairs of the temporary market here. I will go with the old patriarch to meet those two people."
Zhou Yang said, and immediately called the old patriarch Zhou Minghan to go to the Zhou family ancestral temple.
"Old patriarch, patriarch, you are here."
Outside the Zhou Family Ancestral Temple, Zhou Xuanyan watched Zhou Yang and Zhou Minghan arrive, and quickly stepped forward to greet them.
"Okay, Xuan Yan, your mission is completed, now go do your own thing." Zhou Minghan waved his hand, but directly sent Zhou Xuanyan away.
When Zhou Xuanyan saw this, even though she was very curious about what happened, she had to obey the order and leave the place.
After Zhou Xuanyan left, Zhou Yang and Zhou Minghan walked into the ancestral temple.
In the Zhou Family Ancestral Temple, in a room used to entertain guests, two monks, an old man and a young man, were restlessly walking around and talking in low voices.
"Dad, do you think the Zhou family will agree to our request? What if they don't agree?"
"No, our requirements are not high. It is impossible for a family as big as the Zhou family to not agree to even this small request."
"What if? What if they don't agree?"
"Nothing goes wrong, they will definitely agree. Can you just shut up?"
The sound of the father and son talking in the small room contained no secrets at all to the two foundation-building monks who were walking towards them.
After Zhou Yang and Zhou Minghan heard the conversation between father and son, they couldn't help but smile at each other, and then deliberately made some footsteps to alert the two people in the room.
"Hush, silence, someone is coming."
The voices of the two people in the room suddenly stopped, and it became quiet for an instant.
Then, only a dozen breaths passed, the door opened a crack, and someone was peeking outside.
When he saw Zhou Yang and Zhou Minghan standing there looking at each other with half-smiling smiles, the man was startled and opened the door.
"Juniors Lu Hushan and Lu Xiaoshan have met two seniors."
In the room, Zhou Yang and Zhou Minghan were sitting on the Grand Master's chair, while the Lu family father and son, who had been temporarily staying in the room, bowed humbly and greeted them.
Zhou Yang looked up and saw the father and son of the Lu family. One was at the seventh level of Qi cultivation. He was wearing a round-neck robe and looked a bit like a shrewd businessman in the ordinary world. The other was at the fourth level of Qi cultivation.
He has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looks like a wandering hero.
"You two fellow Taoists, there is no need to be formal. Now that I and Xiaojiu are both here, you can say whatever you didn't say before in front of Xuantai."
When Zhou Yang looked at Lu and his son, Zhou Minghan had already smiled slightly and smiled with a warm face.
Hearing his words, the nervousness on the faces of Lu and his son also eased a lot, and then Lu Hushan said immediately: "The two seniors have learned from each other, and the junior has said it."
After saying that, he immediately took a deep breath and slowly told the story of how his father and son came to visit the Zhou family this time.
It turned out that Lu Hushan and his son were originally casual cultivators from a small oasis.
The oasis was very small, with only one second-level low-grade spiritual vein on it. The Lu family and two other casual cultivators jointly occupied that spiritual vein for practice, and they usually had a good relationship.
But more than ten years ago, a casual cultivator on the small oasis was captured by bandits when he went out. He confessed the location of the small oasis and led the bandits to the small oasis.
At that time, the Lu family and his son were lucky. They happened to be in a small mortal village outside the spiritual veins. They did not become the first target of the sand bandits and escaped from the oasis in time.
However, after escaping from the small oasis, the Lu family and his son were afraid of being ambushed by sand bandits when they returned, so they did not dare to return to the oasis, so they could only wander in the sea of sand.
In this way, after two or three years of wandering in the sand sea, the two of them discovered a medium-sized oasis hidden by a natural phantom formation while avoiding a big storm.
The area of that medium-sized oasis is less than one-fifth smaller than the Yuquan Lake oasis. There are mountains and water on the oasis, and of course there are also monsters.
The Lu family and his son were of low cultivation. They were frightened to death when they saw a third-level monster appearing in the oasis to prey on lower-level monsters.
Then the two of them didn't dare to wander around the oasis anymore. They just killed some mortal beasts to replenish food and water, and then exited the oasis directly.
Later, the father and son got lost several times in the desert, always returning to the oasis secretly to replenish food and water. After four or five years of trial and error, the two finally found the right path back to the Baisha River Oasis.
It seems that the two father and son were really lucky. When they returned to the Baisha River Oasis, the demonic chaos that had lasted for several years had just subsided.
After the two returned to the Baisha River Oasis, they planned to sell their discovery at a good price.
It was just that after the two of them had listened and inquired among the casual cultivators for a year or two, they could not make up their minds to which family they should sell the information about the unowned medium-sized oasis.
At this time, the two of them saw the news that the Zhou family was holding a foundation-building celebration, so they came over to join in the fun with the attitude that they would not suffer any loss if they came.
Then after eating and drinking, the father and son decided to take a chance and chose the Zhou family as the target of the transaction through these days of observation and inquiry. After Zhou Yang announced that he would hold a temporary market, they approached the Zhou family.
Great Elder Zhou Xuantai.
"So, what are your requirements?"
After Zhou Yang listened to Lu Hushan's story, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the father and son before asking the key question.
Hearing his words, Lu Hushan suddenly perked up and quickly lowered his head and replied: "Senior Mingjian, I don't want much from my father and son. I just want the Zhou family to possess the second-level mid-grade spiritual vein in one of the oasis after they occupy it.
The spiritual mountain is designated for our father and son to practice, so that we can build our own family!"
"Oh, you also want to start a family?"
Zhou Yang looked at the father and son in surprise, quite surprised by their request.
Building a family is not a child's play. Even if he agrees to allocate a second-level spiritual mountain to the Lu family and his son, there are still many problems to be solved if just two of them want to establish a family of cultivators.
"The junior knows that this idea may make people like the senior laugh, but after experiencing so much, the junior has deeply understood the difficulties of casual cultivation, so even if the road ahead is bumpy, the junior is willing to fight hard to find a way out for future generations!
"
Lu Hushan looked up at Zhou Yang with a determined expression, his eyes full of determination.
"What do you think, great-grandfather?"
Zhou Yang turned his head noncommittally and asked Zhou Minghan, the old patriarch beside him.
When Zhou Minghan heard this, he immediately looked at Lu Hushan and said, "I admire Fellow Daoist Lu's courage, but if Fellow Daoist wants the Zhou family to agree to your terms, you still have to meet me with a small condition!"
"Senior, please tell me."
Lu Hushan's face tightened, and he and his son Lu Xiaoshan looked at Zhou Minghan with a tense face, fearing that Zhou Minghan would say some unacceptable conditions.
"You two fellow Taoists don't need to be nervous. My condition is very simple. If you two fellow Taoists start a family, they can only marry secular women from my Zhou family and have offspring. The Lu family in the future will also become my Zhou family."
vassal family!"
Zhou Minghan glanced at the father and son with a calm expression, and stated his conditions in a deep voice.
Hearing his condition, before Lu and his son could speak, Zhou Yang's eyes lit up and he said: "That's right, if you don't agree to this condition, there will be no negotiation!"
