After a while, the Shennong Clan disciples who had gone back to deliver the letter came back and invited their leader.
The Taishan Sect and Xiao Yunyin both have great reputations. When the leader of the Shennong Gang learned that Xiao Yunyin was coming, he naturally rushed to greet him so as not to lose etiquette. The leader of the Shennong Gang is quite old. He looks about seven or eight years old.
At the age of ten, only a small gray beard was left, which was very long and dragged down to his calf. On his waist, hung a folded small shovel, with black light flowing on it, which was obviously not an ordinary person.
If you are familiar with this gang leader, you will know that this small shovel is the weapon of this helper. Although it looks inconspicuous, it has a rather peculiar usage, which should not be underestimated.
When the leader of the Shennong Gang saw Xiao Yunyin from a distance, he immediately quickened his pace and walked over quickly. Halfway through, he cupped his fists and said with a smile: "Xiao Daxia is coming here. It's a shame to greet him from afar. I'm disrespectful. I'm disrespectful."
"Young Master of the Qing Gang, I'm sorry, but I've come to ask you for help today. I came here to bother you, and I hope you'll forgive me." Xiao Yunyin returned the courtesy immediately. He has been around the world for decades, and although he has never dealt with the leader of the Shennong Gang, he knows this.
The gang leader's surname was Qing. Although he knew that the Shennong Gang had done some arrogant and domineering things here, his attitude towards the Qing gang leader was still quite polite.
"Master Xiao, I can't even invite a big shot like you, so how dare I blame you? If you have any orders, just say it. Everyone in the Shennong Gang will obey your orders.
If you say half a word of "no", let me write the word "green" upside down." As he spoke, the leader of the Qing gang had already walked closer, and it could be seen from his steps that he had a profound foundation in martial arts.
"I heard that a medicinal herb called Jingshencao is produced here. This medicinal herb is of great use to me. I want to pick it up shamelessly. I also hope that the leader of the Qing Gang will make it convenient. Of course, your gang is here to wait for this medicinal herb.
I can't let everyone be happy for a long time, and I will give you corresponding compensation afterwards. I can guarantee you that this compensation will definitely satisfy you." Xiao Yunyin said bluntly.
"It turns out that Master Xiao also wants to take away this Jingshen Herb. What a coincidence. I personally don't have any objections to this. It's just a herb. If you want it, just take it. As for compensation, it's great.
No, our Shennong Gang has not reached that level in the market. However, this Jingshen Grass is not owned by our Shennong Gang family. There are other forces and experts who are thinking about this Jingshen Grass. I am the only one who agrees to give Jingshen Grass
It's useless to give you the grass. You still have to find a way to convince those people to agree. To be honest, just before I came to see you, I was negotiating with those people. If you are interested in the Jingshen Grass,
I can take you over and have a look." Gang Leader Qing said kindly. He agreed happily, but there was a cunning look in his eyes that was hard to detect.
"Okay, then Leader Lao Qing will lead the way." Xiao Yunyin said with an arched hand.
"Xiao Daxia, and the little brother next to you, you two are coming with me." The leader of the Green Gang pointed to the depths of the lush forest and smiled at the two of them.
In this way, the group of people entered the depths of the lush forest under the guidance of the leader of the Green Gang. When walking halfway, Xiao Yunyin asked who wanted to compete for the Jingshen Grass. The leader of the Green Gang did not hide it and listed these people one by one.
Said it out.
Previously, the old woman in the village obviously had limited knowledge of the situation in the forest. She could only name the two largest forces and did not know the details. After listening to the Qing gang leader's story, Xiao Yunyin and his two men finally figured out all the ideas.
Who are the people who want to snatch the Jingshencao?
In addition to the two major forces, the Shennong Gang and the Jintang Escort Agency, there are also some scattered warriors who are interested in the Jingshencao. Together, these people total more than a dozen people. Don't look at it that these people are just working alone.
Warriors, but they should not be underestimated. Those who dare to come single-handedly to compete with the two major forces for the Jingshen Grass naturally have corresponding strength and capital. These people either have strong enough backers or have strong enough cultivation realms.
Among these people, there are even several eighth-level heavenly warriors and one ninth-level heavenly warrior!
If Xiao Yunyin hadn't already reached the tenth level of heaven and had enough confidence, I'm afraid that just hearing the names of these people would have made him pat his head and leave.
With so many martial arts masters gathered here, it may sound a bit exaggerated at first, but in fact it is not surprising at all. The magical effect of the Jingshen Grass is attractive enough to attract them. The Jingshen Grass has the stimulating effect
The effect of the mind is a one-time stimulation, but it can bring permanent miraculous effects. After being stimulated by Jingshencao, the user's five senses will be greatly improved, and the improvement effect will be extremely obvious. It is said that it has doubled.
Double is not an exaggeration.
The improvement of the five senses means the overall improvement of the five senses such as eyesight, smell, and hearing, which is of great benefit to warriors. This benefit is not only reflected in fighting with others, but also when fighting.
With great help, you can control the operation of internal forces more perfectly.
It is precisely because the Jingshen Grass has such magical effects that it attracts so many martial arts masters to gather here.
Before this, the martial arts masters who came here maintained a delicate balance, checking and controlling each other. But the arrival of Xiao Yunyin suddenly broke this balance, because he has a strength far higher than these people. Coming here is simply
If a tiger joins a flock of sheep, it will inevitably cause tremendous pressure on others.
After walking for several miles, everyone finally reached the place. The front suddenly became clear. The trees blocking the road had been cut down, leaving tree stumps on the ground and the weeds on the ground.
It was cleaned up and a large open space was vacated. On these open spaces, more than thirty wooden houses were temporarily built. The wooden houses looked messy, but they were generally scattered on both sides, forming a state of confrontation. On one of the wooden houses, flying Shennong
The flag of the gang was flying on another wooden house, and the flag of the Jintang Escort Agency was flying.
The flag of the Shennong Gang is embroidered with three green leaves of grass, and the flag of the Jintang Escort Bureau is embroidered with a round golden shield.
Obviously, the waving flags represent these two completely different forces. These two groups of comparable forces have taken root here together.
You don't need to guess to know that the legendary Jingshen Grass must grow in this area, otherwise these two forces would not choose to set up camp here.
The leader of the Green Gang who was walking next to him pointed to the front and introduced with a smile: "Xiao Daxia, we are at the place. The Jingshen Grass is growing in front of us. It is now surrounded by us. Outsiders are strictly prohibited from approaching, so as not to affect us.
The growth of Jingshencao. As you can see, the people here are mainly us and the Jintang Escort Bureau, and our flags are planted here. As for the wooden houses without flags, they are where other martial arts colleagues live. "
Hearing this, Xiao Yunyin and Zhao Zheng both turned their attention to the building complex in front, focusing on the center.
Zhao Zhenggong opened his eyes, and his pupils instantly contracted by three points, and there was a faint surge of internal energy in his eyes. The scenery in his eyes suddenly shrank, and his field of vision extended to the center of the building. Through the gaps in some buildings, he could vaguely see
, a peculiar grass-type plant grows there.
The shape of this grass is extremely peculiar, about five inches long, with lush branches and leaves. The leaves are all green, but there are blue luminous veins on the leaves. These blue luminous veins are flashing slowly,
It flickers on and off. Since it is daytime, the light is not very obvious. If you watch this kind of leaf at night, it will be very beautiful.
This kind of blue-light veins is a unique feature of Jingshen grass, which is impossible for ordinary plants. In addition, the blue luminous veins can also show the growth of Jingshen grass. Only the veins completely spread to the entire leaf.
Jingshencao is now completely mature and has the magical effect of stimulating the mind.
Before the leaf veins have fully grown, if the Jingshen Grass is pulled out from the ground, the Jingshen Grass will wither quickly, and the grass blades will not have any effect, and taking it will be useless. Therefore, the two major forces and those
The martial arts masters have not taken action for a long time, but have been patiently waiting for the Jingshen Grass to grow. If it were not for this reason, I am afraid these people would have been beaten to pieces.
Around the Jingshen Grass, there were more than a dozen people sitting cross-legged. These people were all members of the Shennong Gang and the Jintang Escort Bureau. These people were obviously protecting the Jingshen Grass to prevent the Jingshen Grass from being damaged.
Everyone in the Jintang Escort Bureau is wearing green clothes, and each person in the Jintang Escort Bureau holds a large or small golden round shield in his hand. The name of the Jintang Escort Bureau comes from the meaning of "solid as gold soup", and all the escorts in the Escort Bureau must wear a shield.
, and they all know a special martial art of using shields to fight.
Seeing the Jingshen Grass in front of him, Xiao Yunyin immediately frowned, showing a fiery look, and could not help but slowly clenched his fists. Only by getting this Jingshen Grass can he have a glimmer of hope to help Xie Qingshu
Restore memory. This is really important to him.
The leader of the Green Gang smiled and introduced a few words here, but they were all about insignificant things, and then led Xiao Yunyin and the two of them to continue walking forward and into the group of wooden houses.
When the members of the Shennong Gang saw that their leader was back, they greeted each other one by one. The leader of the Qing Gang responded with a smile, which seemed quite majestic to him.
"You two, please come over here, everyone is inside." The leader of the Green Gang smiled and pointed to a wooden house without a flag. This wooden house is the largest one nearby. The door of the wooden house was closed at this time, but inside
But it reveals the good atmosphere of many masters.
Xiao Yunyin nodded, with a solemn look on his face, and walked side by side to the wooden house with Zhao Zheng. When passing by the Jingshen Grass, he couldn't help but take another look at the grass. This seemingly weak grass was actually
It has such great appeal.
Zhao Zheng, like Xiao Yunyin, also looked at the Jingshen Grass twice more and showed a smile. This time he helped Xiao Yunyin snatch the Jingshen Grass, and he would also be the beneficiary, because the leaves of this Jingshen Grass were enough for two people.
The human portion can be consumed by two warriors. After Xie Qingshu eats these Jingshen Grass, the remaining part will naturally belong to him!
Everyone had their own thoughts and walked towards the largest wooden house together. Before anyone could approach, the people inside took the initiative to open the door. From the door, you could see clearly what was going on inside the house. There were more than a dozen people standing inside, and they were almost approaching.
There were twenty people. They were all dressed in different clothes, old and young. Many of them had a look of disdain on their faces, and none of them looked easy to deal with. Some of them had masks on their faces, as if they were deliberately hiding it.
Identity gives people a sense of mystery.
After everyone entered the house, everyone in the house greeted Xiao Yunyin one after another. Only a few people did not express their opinions and turned a blind eye to this famous knight. These people who ignored Xiao Yunyin either had nothing to do with the Taishan sect, or even had a quarrel with him, or they were
Some people, both good and evil, simply disdain the so-called heroes.
Xiao Yunyin didn't care about this aspect, and was not angry because others ignored him. Among the three swordsmen of Mount Tai, he and Zhi Canghai both had good tempers and had the capacity to accommodate others, but Lei Ming had a hot temper.
.If Lei Ming encountered this kind of thing, he would definitely use the most direct and violent means to take away the Jingshen Grass, so he would not look forward or backward.
After the pleasantries, it was time to get down to business. The leader of the Green Gang coughed twice, and the room immediately became quiet. He then pointed at Xiao Yunyin and said: "When people don't talk in secret, I won't beat around the bush. This Daxia Xiao
Like everyone else, I came here to take the Jingshen Grass. As the saying goes, treasures can be obtained by those who have the ability. I think everyone knows the strength of Xiao Daxia. In my opinion, everyone should take a step back.
Let's give the Jingshencao to Master Xiao. In this way, it will be beneficial to everyone and avoid hurting the harmony. If you don't know the current affairs and insist on taking action against Master Xiao, I'm afraid you won't get any benefits."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became more acrimonious, and many people showed displeasure, and their eyes when looking at Xiao Yunyin were not as polite as before.
Zhao Zheng glanced at the leader of the Green Gang and said displeasedly in his heart: "This old fox, on the surface, looks very nice, but secretly he stumbles, deliberately adding fuel to the fire, and pointing the finger at us."
Xiao Yunyin naturally heard the implication of the Qing Gang leader, frowned slightly, took a step, and explained to everyone: "Dear heroes, young and old, Xiao came here for the Jingshen Grass, but it is not...
Use brute force to rob, our Taishan faction will not act so arrogantly."
"Xiao Daxia doesn't want to snatch it, so what method do you want to use to obtain this only one Jingshencao?" A voice that was neither salty nor bland rang. The speaker was a middle-aged man with a rather rugged appearance.
He is not angry but confident, wearing a brown shorts and carrying a golden round shield on his back. This person is the chief escort of Jintang Escort Bureau, his surname is Zhang. Like the leader of the Qing Gang, he also has the cultivation of the eighth heaven.
for.
"There are always many solutions to things in the world. I want to use some more peaceful methods to obtain this Jingshencao."
"What is a peaceful approach?"
"I will take the Jingshen Grass and give you corresponding compensation. I cannot guarantee that these compensations will be worth the value of the Jingshen Grass, but I will not treat you badly."
"Haha, Mr. Xiao has a good calculation. Do you think you can get rid of the rest of us with three melons and two dates?" Zhang Biaotou smiled contemptuously and said, "Xiao Daxia, you don't need to make any high-sounding excuses. Since you want to
If you want to snatch the Jingshencao from us, just say so, why bother looking for some fig leaf to put on your face."
Among the other people in the room, several people sneered in agreement, obviously agreeing with Zhang Biaotou's words.
"What Zhang Biaotou said is wrong. If I really want to do that, why should I come here to discuss it with you? I can just do it directly. Although I, Xiao, am mediocre in martial arts, if I want to take this away from everyone,
Jingshencao can still be done. The reason why I didn't do that is because I don't want to bully others. If you can listen to me and accept my solution, Mr. Xiao will definitely be grateful. If you can't accept this,
Then it's up to you to come up with a perfect plan. In order to obtain the Jingshen Grass, I, Xiao, will definitely accompany you to the end." Xiao Yunyin did not get angry, but said neither humble nor arrogant.
"There is only one Jingshencao. There are more wolves and less meat, so there is no surefire solution. We have discussed it many times before you came, but we have not come up with any good results. In the end, we still have to use the most primitive method.
There is a way to determine the ownership of the Jingshen Grass. When the day comes when the Jingshen Grass grows, we will each snatch it according to our abilities. Whoever has the ability to snatch it will be the one who owns the Jingshen Grass. This method is the simplest and most acceptable."
Zhang Biaotou raised his head slightly and asked, "How about it, Master Xiao, can you accept this method?"
"Okay, I'll do as you said." Xiao Yunyin nodded and sighed softly, "I originally wanted to resolve this matter peacefully, but since you all insist on seeing the real seal under my hands, I can only accompany you."
Zhang Biaotou was speechless this time and did not talk to him again.
In fact, these people in the room are like Ming Jing in their hearts. They know that they are definitely no match for Xiao Yunyin, but they are really unwilling to give up the Jingshencao so easily. If they accept Xiao Yunyin's proposal, they will not get too many benefits.
, on the contrary, they will completely lose the opportunity to fight for the Jingshen Grass. If they continue to use the previous method and engage in a melee-style snatching, at least there is hope of fishing in troubled waters. No matter how strong Xiao Yunyin is, it is impossible to deal with so many masters.
Moreover, more masters may be recruited in the next few days. When the battle actually begins, it is still unclear what the situation will be like.
However, not everyone is so greedy and bold. There are also some people who are self-aware and choose to retreat bravely. These people betrayed the Taishan Sect and Xiao Yunyin and resigned one after another, giving up the opportunity to compete for the Jingshen Grass.
.Xiao Yunyin expressed his gratitude to these people and accepted the favor.
Even if the fight for the Jingshen Grass was settled, there was no need to continue this discussion. Everyone immediately dispersed and returned to their respective residences. The old fox-like leader of the Green Gang once again approached Xiao Yunyin and the two of them,
An empty wooden house was selected for the two of them to live in. Although Xiao Yunyin and the two were dissatisfied with Gang Leader Qing's previous actions, they did not refuse this kind offer and accepted this temporary residence. (To be continued.
