Qingyangmen is the first sect in the central and northern part of Youzhou.
This sect is entrenched in Yu'an Valley and has survived for thousands of years.
In the sect, there are not only a large number of warriors, but also Taoists.
In Tongfu City, there are many properties built in Qingyangmen, among which the more famous ones are the gambling houses and brothels in Qingyangmen.
In the gambling house, three religions and nine streams gathered together, and outside the brothel, there were many prodigal sons.
Cao Su and Qiu Lianshu entered the gambling house of Qingyang Gate one after another.
Qiu Lianshu can be regarded as an old man. As soon as he entered the gambling house, a waiter came to greet him.
Qiu Lianshu said calmly: "Everyone in the world knows the famous Qingyang Square."
When the waiter heard this, he was not surprised at all. After a slight salute, he extended his hand to lead the way: "Two distinguished guests, please come inside."
Then he led the two of them inside.
Passed through the noisy gambling hall and arrived at the backyard.
In the backyard, there was actually a high-rise building. There were several Qingyang Sect disciples waiting at the door, watching the two approaching people warily.
After the waiter explained the situation, the Qingyang Sect disciples stepped aside.
Cao Su and Qiu Lianshu entered the house in the backyard.
The light in the room was very dark, there was a side door, and the waiter handed them two masks.
"This is the secret room of Qingyangmen."
Qiu Lianshu introduced him to Cao Su, and the two entered the dark room, where many Jianghu people had already come.
They all wore masks, and their faces and expressions could not be seen clearly.
Because the Qingyang Sect has both a martial arts system and a Taoist system within the sect, the most popular items in the Qingyang Sect are various types of elixirs. The ascetics in their sect will produce and sell the elixirs themselves.
, give it to your own warriors for training.
Of course, warriors will not use them in vain. Some warriors will bring some precious medicinal materials they find while traveling around the world back to the sect.
In addition, because it has both warriors and cultivators, Qingyang Sect is also registered in the world of cultivation.
Within the sect, there is no absolute class distinction between warriors and monks. Such secret workshops have been opened in many places in central Youzhou.
As the name suggests, Anfang is a market that is different from Mingfang.
In the world of cultivation, the market is an important place for cultivators to communicate with each other and exchange things for things.
The secret workshop of Qingyang Gate not only provides opportunities for ascetics to communicate, but also does not reject many martial artists, especially those who are above the middle level of the strength realm, because many martial artists also have treasures needed by ascetics or other martial arts.
.
The two walked into the secret room and found a seat on the high platform to sit down.
Cao Su took a closer look and found that this place was dominated by arc-shaped structures, with the middle being high and the sides low.
The high place is where the market displays items.
As for the means of communication, in addition to the normal communication between cultivators, there is also the auction held by the Qingyangmen Dark Shop itself.
Cao Su sat down and looked around, while Qiu Lianshu was sitting upright, not squinting.
Cao Su, who was observing everywhere, soon attracted the attention of some people, and many people stared at Cao Su with malicious eyes.
"Little brother, don't look around. This is not a place for you to act wild."
Suddenly a message came to Cao Su's ears. He frowned and turned to look to the side in the darkness, where he saw a martial artist shrouded in black robes.
The martial artist was also surprised. His voice transmission should have a more ethereal feel. Why could the young man find him all at once?
He was sure that this young man was not very old. His martial arts level seemed to be only at the low level of strength level. How could he be so sharp?
He suddenly became interested and looked at Cao Su with interest.
Cao Su looked away and saw several Qingyang Sect disciples carrying a heavy object onto the high platform.
"Comrades, today our Qingyang Gate Dark Shop has an important treasure that we want to introduce to you."
A white-haired old man walked out from the background. The old man smiled and spoke to everyone.
He is only at the lower level of strength realm and is not considered a master.
But Qingyangmen's secret shop relies on Qingyangmen's reputation to intimidate people, not just his little manager.
"Comrades, this valuable treasure is incredible. It came from the Emperor You's Mansion that was opened not long ago. Someone accidentally obtained it."
As he finished speaking, someone conveniently lifted the red cloth covering the "Chongbao".
Inside was a white skeleton.
The surface of the skeleton is smooth, exuding the pressure of Yuze and Dandan. The deceased did not know how strong he was when he was alive, but he can still have such pressure after death.
The many warriors and monks present were all shocked.
The old man smiled calmly and said: "This skeleton should be the back bone of some kind of ferocious beast. According to the judgment of our Qingyang Sect's appraiser, this ferocious beast had at least the first-level combat power of the powerful realm during its lifetime. It was only one step short of being able to step into the mysterious realm."
territory."
"This back bone contains some of the spiritual power of the ferocious beast. The back bone can be used as a medicine guide, or it can be polished to forge a magic weapon."
The old man was the salesman of Qingyang Gate. He praised Chongbao for the purpose of encouraging people to spend money to buy it.
Indeed, some people immediately began to show strong interest.
A monk sitting in the front row raised a sign in his hand.
The old man showed joy and looked at the ascetic.
The cultivator said calmly: "One hundred low-grade spiritual stones."
In the world of cultivation, the basic currency has been converted from silver taels to spiritual stones.
However, spirit stones are of no use to warriors, so before entering the dark workshop, many warriors will temporarily convert some of the valuables they brought with them into spirit stones and exchange them with Qingyang Gate.
What Qingyang Clan earns is the exchange price difference. Some warriors don't understand the value of items and sell them at a low price, giving Qingyang Clan a big bargain.
Qingyang Gate was later resold, all for money.
As for the handling fees charged for auctions on weekdays, they are not a big deal. In many cases, in order to attract more people to participate in the darkroom, Qingyang Sect is even willing to hold auctions for free.
Of course, there are also some warriors who will quietly collect the spirit stones after obtaining them for emergencies.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Cao Su and Qiu Lianshu are the kind of people who have no money. At Cao Su’s signal, Qiu Lianshu helplessly ran to the backstage of Qingyang Gate to get his own money.
Some silver coins and elixirs are exchanged for spiritual stones.
In the end, I only exchanged ten pieces of low-grade spiritual stones, which was really poor.
The ascetic just now opened his mouth with hundreds of low-grade spiritual stones.
In fact, a hundred low-grade spiritual stones are equivalent to one medium-grade spiritual stone, but that’s what the cultivator said. The impact of a hundred low-grade spiritual stones is obviously much greater than the impact of one medium-grade spiritual stone.
.
It sounds completely different.
After the monk finished quoting the price, there was no sound at all in the hall.
But soon, someone else opened his mouth and held up a sign.
"Two hundred low-grade spiritual stones!"
Hiss~ There was a gasp of cold air in the hall.
The scale of a dark workshop like this is not large. The warriors who participate in the dark workshop are usually mainly in the middle and lower levels of the strength realm. The ascetics are usually in the early stage of pill formation or the late stage of foundation building. This will add a hundred in one breath.
It is true that the "local tycoon" who possesses a piece of spiritual stone is rare.
It also proves that these people are determined to seize this skeleton.
The white skeleton was quietly placed there. Perhaps thousands of years ago, its owner did not know that one day it would be put on the auction table and be bid for by everyone.
Cao Su silently observed the people in the hall, and soon noticed a monk participating in the dark workshop and the disciple guarding the Qingyang Gate exchanging glances.
Then the monk stood up, walked to the monk behind him, and whispered a few words.
The monk quickly raised the sign in his hand and participated in the bidding for the white skeleton.
"Two hundred and thirty low-grade spiritual stones!"
His voice was not loud, and the amount he added was not large, but his tone was quite firm, as if he was determined to get the bones.
Someone else was participating in the fight, and the many monks and warriors watching on the scene all showed excitement.
Although many people are unable to participate in the bidding, if they can witness the emergence of a sky-high price treasure, it will also be a great source of conversation.
For Jianghu people, apart from their grievances and hatreds, the most important thing is to talk about everything.
There are many things happening all over the world. If there is something you have personally experienced, it is different from ordinary people.
It's enough to make people put on a show in front of others.
"You should take a good look here. I will leave for a while and meet the Qi family caravan in the evening."
Cao Su's low voice came from the void, and Qiu Lianshu's spirit was lifted.
As a professional charlatan, he naturally does not show any emotion on his face.
After nodding calmly, he looked slightly in the direction of Cao Su.
I saw Cao Su's figure over there, but he didn't know when he had disappeared.
He quickly gathered his thoughts and took the initiative to make some transactions in the dark workshop as Cao Su had arranged before.
However, everyone's attention was attracted by this sudden hot auction.
Qiu Lianshu's self-promotion was not very effective.
Cao Su wore a mask and walked through the dark room.
Most of the people in the darkroom are wary when they see someone coming.
When they saw Cao Su wearing a mask, they all looked at him scrutinizingly.
Unknowingly, Cao Su had reached the door. The two guards at the door looked at him indifferently.
"Are you going out?"
The nurse asked.
Cao Su nodded and passed between the two of them seemingly casually.
Outside the courtyard, there are waiters waiting for every monk and warrior who enters the dark workshop.
Cao Su took off his mask and followed a waiter forward.
Compared with the waiter who brought them in just now, this waiter was much quieter and never spoke.
He quietly led Cao Su out and when he passed a corner, he suddenly felt pain in the back of his neck.
As soon as his eyes darkened, he let out a muffled groan and collapsed to the ground.
Cao Su turned into a breeze and quickly passed by, taking away the limp waiter.
After a while, Cao Su transformed into a waiter and walked back expressionlessly.
The guards guarding the two secret chambers didn't notice anything wrong. They glanced at Cao Su and then withdrew their gaze.
Cao Su waited outside the courtyard for a while, then turned and left.
"where you go?"
The steward frowned.
Cao Su said calmly: "Remove your hand."
"Didn't you just explain it?" The steward had nothing to say. When people have three urgent matters, how can they say more?
Cao Su dressed as a waiter and walked out, swaggering through the courtyard.
This Thousand Faces is really easy to use. If you adjust the facial muscles of the waiter, you can barely adjust it to his appearance, but the subtleties are slightly different. If you look carefully, you will still find problems.
If he didn't adjust, Cao Su wouldn't be able to adjust to this. Next time he pinches his face, it will definitely be a different face.
The entire Qingyangmen gambling house is divided into three parts: the front yard, the middle yard and the back yard. The front yard is the gambling house, the middle yard is where the secret room is, and the back yard is not open to the public, and only insiders can enter.
After Cao Su walked into the backyard, he saw that the backyard was a resting place for staff.
A large number of casino workers took a rest here, and some people greeted him after seeing him.
Cao Su, like the waiter just now, nodded with a cold face.
"Where are you going? This is the elder's resting place."
As he was stepping into a courtyard, a voice suddenly came from beside Cao Su.
He turned around and saw a young disciple from the Qingyang Sect looking at him with doubtful eyes.
The disciples of Qingyang Sect were suddenly startled. The waiter they saw in front of them suddenly turned his head and showed a strange smile.
Then the body turned into countless black birds, flapping their wings in front of them and disappearing.
He was taken aback and drew out the long sword in his hand as if facing a formidable enemy. However, the waiter disappeared as if he had evaporated.
It was as if everything he saw just now was an illusion.
----------------------------------
Tongfu City, where Elder Qingkong resides.
Elder Qingkong is the top master of Qingyang Sect in Tongfu City. He is a great monk in the late stage of pill formation and is based here.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! According to the rules of Qingyang Sect, all monks in Qingyang Sect must participate in the daily affairs of the sect.
Generally, ascetics in sects are held in high esteem.
But Qingyangmen is slightly different, ascetics and warriors are treated equally.
Taoists pay attention to cultivating in the world and stepping into the world of mortals.
This is the case with Elder Qingkong. Although he is a great monk in the late stage of pill formation, he has been in charge of Tongfu City for half a year.
In order to ensure a better cultivation environment, no ordinary people will approach the place where Elder Qingkong is.
And he used various kinds of spiritual stones to set up formations, erect a bleak spiritual power barrier, and gather spiritual power for daily practice.
However, in addition to daily practice, there are also some affairs management that need to be carried out on weekdays.
The affairs of Qingyang Sect will be reported to him.
"Elder, Luo Jian from the Youbei League sent us another message yesterday, saying that the caravan from the Youbei League will arrive in Tongfu City tomorrow."
In front of Elder Qingkong, a senior disciple came to report.
Elder Qingkong was quite young. Hearing this, he stroked his beard and said, "Luo Jian is a scheming person and should not be easily provoked. Has he ever explained what caravan from Piaoxue City is coming to Tongfu City this time?"
"It should be a caravan sending furs from Piaoxue City. Winter is approaching, and some of the cattle and sheep in Piaoxue City can't survive the winter, so they have torn off their furs and made them into clothes and sent them to the cities in the south."
"Since it is a caravan from Piaoxue City of Youbei League, it can naturally open some convenient doors. What else does Luo Jian have to say?"
"The most important thing is the caravan's customs clearance, but the road guidance is a matter for the officials, and we can't help them with anything. What we can do is help them deal with some Jianghu matters. By the way, maybe
Some good things have been shipped to us and we will help process them."
The disciple said it in a vague way, but Qingkong understood clearly that he was using the dark workshop to help the Youbei League get rid of some stolen goods.
Some stolen goods are simply because the seller does not want to expose his identity, so dark shops are the best way.
"Youbei League has been producing more and more goods recently, and they are shipping out more and more frequently. Could it be that Piaoxue City has opened the secret winter realm again?"
Elder Qingkong's eyes flashed, and he snorted coldly: "Help Luo Jian handle half of the goods. He takes advantage of us every time. If it weren't for the boss's face, I wouldn't help Luo Jian wipe his ass."
After he said this, his expression suddenly changed slightly.
Then an explosion was heard outside the house.
The location of the secret room in the middle courtyard of Qingyangmen suddenly became commotion.
A figure soared into the sky from the dark room, holding a white skeleton in its hand, as fast as lightning.
"Elder Wuyou, it's the remnants of the Northern Barbarians who are coming. We have already made preparations."
When Elder Qingkong walked out of the door, he saw several figures of Qingyang Sect's disciples rising up from the sky, chasing the figure who had snatched the white skeleton.
In the huge cave, Qiu Lianshu looked at this situation and was stunned.
The first time I came to the dark workshop, I saw someone taking the treasure from the dark workshop. It was really exciting.
And judging from the appearance of the dark workshop, it seems that it has been prepared for a long time.
Several people were chasing in the air. Two of them put their hands together, and flames suddenly spun and burned on their arms. They opened their hands, and in the middle of their joined hands was a fiery red bead.
The two ascetics opened their mouths almost at the same time and blew on the beads.
Among the beads, a huge fire dragon suddenly sprang out.
The fire dragon swelled up in the storm and became more than a hundred feet long. It roared and pounced on the fleeing figure in the distance.
Elder Qingkong floated in the air and smiled when he saw it.
"The fire escape of these two brothers is becoming more and more refined, and the fire and candle technique has the style of a famous master."
With his knowledge and qualifications, he is naturally qualified to comment on several juniors.
He flew forward with great interest, preparing to take a close look at how the Qingyang Sect's masters surrounded and suppressed the remnants of the Northern Barbarians.
boom!
Suddenly, there was an explosion in the air.
The explosion shook the heaven and the earth, and the echoing sound resounded throughout Tongfu City.
Many monks, warriors, and common people in Tongfu City all raised their heads and stared blankly at the sky.
