Chapter 28: Zhengxin Palace, the second tool candidate
"Waiter, why are you so deserted today?" Bai Yi still didn't like to cook by himself. He sat on a stool in the inn and asked the waiter next to him: "On weekdays, the inn's business is very prosperous.
?"
The waiter put a pot of tea on the wooden table and replied: "Mr. Bai, have you forgotten? Today is the birthday of the old man of the Chen family!"
The waiter paused and continued: "In order to make the banquet more lively, the Chen family arranged a running banquet. It was very large."
"In the Chen Mansion, we are receiving dignitaries from all over the world."
"Outside the Chen Mansion, the people receiving the reception are the people of Qinghe County. As long as anyone is hungry, they can go and have a meal at the flowing water mat."
"And it's a banquet that lasts for nine days and nine nights!"
Just listen.
Even Bai Yi, who is not very short of money, can't help but be shocked by the wealth of the Chen family. The family background of his tool-man saint is not an ordinary exaggeration!
Setting up a flowing banquet to entertain the people of the county for free? How much money will it cost?
Although, it is unlikely that all people in Qinghe County will go there to eat.
But there must be tens of thousands of people, right?
Coupled with some prominent figures, the number becomes even more exaggerated.
Bai Yi suddenly had the idea of having a meal?
but……
Thinking that the internal power of the settlement reward a few days ago could arouse Chen Qianxue's suspicion, he gave up the idea for the time being.
Especially now that I not only know the "Sword Raising Technique", but also have the nascent talent of swordsmanship.
There is even a spiritual sword called Bai Pingjian.
This is all too easy to expose.
Especially in front of the saint.
suddenly.
The inn was so deserted that there were only two or three big cats and kittens. Several people with extraordinary temperaments walked in. From their exposed temperaments, it was obvious that they had nothing to do with ordinary people.
They are all cultivators!
Three immortal cultivators!
"I don't know why junior sister is so persistent. The palace master has asked her not to provoke Chen Qianxue from the Lingjian Sect. But she got the news from nowhere and found out that Chen Qianxue's grandfather was celebrating his 90th birthday. When that time came, the Lingjian Sect member
Chen Qianxue will also come forward."
"Then she sneaked out! She must have wanted to cause trouble for that Chen Qianxue. After all, when the Zhengxin Palace had an exchange and discussion with the Lingjian Sect a few years ago, Chen Qianxue of the Lingjian Sect punished the junior sister.
"
One of the immortal cultivators had a sad look on his face and couldn't help but sigh and said: "The result is better now. The palace master asked us to persuade her to come back. If we can't persuade her to come back, we will tie her back."
"How can it be so easy to find her! It's not like the Palace Master doesn't know Junior Sister's character, so the three of us have suffered a lot!"
Another person patted him on the shoulder and said: "Junior sister is the palace lord's youngest daughter after all. She usually has a very strong self-esteem. She was very upset about her failure in that competition."
"Now that she knows that Chen Qianxue has gone down the mountain, she will definitely want to find a chance to get her back. It shouldn't be difficult to find her. All she has to do is wait until night and go directly to the Chen Mansion."
"The difficult thing is how to bring her back to Zhengxin Palace..."
The last person nodded: "Indeed, junior sister sneaked out when she was a child. At that time, the three of us went out of the palace to find her, and it took more than two months to bring her back..."
At this point, the three of them looked at each other and sighed.
I lamented that I was extremely unlucky, having received such a torturous task twice.
Immediately.
They found a table in the inn and sat down.
"Waiter, bring me some jugs of wine! Tsk, it's been a long time since I drank secular wine. Let's first recall the taste of that time."
"..."
Bai Yi, who was not far from them, heard the conversation between the three of them clearly, and probably knew that he had met three unlucky people.
They are immortal cultivators from the Zhengxin Palace, and Bai Yi cannot feel the fluctuations of their spiritual power.
The only possibility is that they are all better than Bai Yi.
The level of cultivation is not low.
Right……
After all, it was the youngest daughter of the lord of the Zhengxin Palace who had sneaked away. The person who sent the palace to look for her must be strong. If he was not strong, he probably wouldn't have the ability to kidnap her back.
Bai Yi knew a little about the Zhengxin Palace. The other party was a sect of righteous cultivators with a prominent reputation.
It is a sect of cultivating immortals at the same level as the Lingjian Sect, and is said to have a longer history than the Lingjian Sect.
Rumors have been passed down for tens of thousands of years.
The daughter of the lord of Zhengxin Palace...
Have discussed with Chen Qianxue...
Bai Yi was thoughtful.
He did not forget that he was already a cultivator in the realm of Qi refining, so he could invite two people into the immortal cultivation simulator.
The reason why I didn't rush to invite the second person was because I didn't find a suitable candidate.
There are many immortal cultivators in Qinghe County, but they are all casual cultivators with low qualifications.
There are also some sect disciples, but their qualifications are not very good either.
Chen Qianxue is an exception.
The candidate who is qualified to be his tool man is at least at Chen Qianxue's level. No matter how bad it is, it is still acceptable to be a little worse than Chen Qianxue.
Unfortunately, this requirement seems a bit high, and there are no such people in Qinghe County.
but.
Now.
The situation has changed slightly.
The daughter of the Palace Master of the Zhengxin Palace has competed with Chen Qianxue, and now she wants to find Chen Qianxue to get back the favor and face... These few factors are enough to show that the other party meets Bai Yi's requirements for choosing a tool.
The only thing that made him feel a little troublesome was that he didn't quite understand the daughter of the lord of Zhengxin Palace.
If you want to invite someone into the Immortal Cultivation Simulator, he needs to keep a distance from the other person.
Moreover, you also need to know some basic information about the other party.
The former is fine.
At worst, he could visit the entire Qinghe County, and a blanket search would always find him.
But the latter.
Bai Yi didn't know the other party's basic information, and the other party was somewhat unknown in Qinghe County.
Anyway...
It's just that he's not as famous as Chen Qianxue, so Bai Yi couldn't collect basic information.
Thoughts were running through his mind, and he suddenly stood up.
With a polite smile on his face, he walked towards the three immortal cultivators from Zhengxin Palace.
"Three Taoist friends, are you actually a Taoist master from Zhengxin Palace? I am a casual cultivator from Qinghe County, my surname is Bai and my name is Yi. I have heard about the great reputation of Zhengxin Palace since I was a child."
"Before I entered the path of cultivating immortals, I heard someone say... that the strength of Zhengxin Palace is still higher than that of Lingjian Sect, so I had the idea of worshiping Zhengxin Palace."
"It's a pity that my qualifications are not good enough, alas!"
Under the astonished and suspicious gazes of the three people, Bai Yi looked like a stranger.
Sitting on an empty stool.
"Today I met a fellow Taoist from the Zhengxin Palace. I am truly lucky!"
Talk to people when you meet them.
Talk nonsense.
Although Bai Yi has not studied it specifically, he also knows that if he wants to talk to someone, just start bragging and that's it.
as expected.
When he said, "I heard people say that the Zhengxin Palace is stronger than the Lingjian Sect."
The suspicious and stunned expressions of the three people in front of them obviously softened a little.
It's blown to the point.
"We are indeed from the Zhengxin Palace. Taoist friends have not been able to enter the Zhengxin Palace, so there is no need to be discouraged. It also took me many years to wait for the opportunity to enter the Zhengxin Palace."
A younger Immortal Cultivator from Zhengxin Palace responded with a polite smile: "The rumors that fellow Taoist heard back then were biased. Zhengxin Palace is not much better than Lingjian Sect."
"It just has a little more background than the Lingjian Sect."
