122, The monks stationed on the island, the hardships of the Hansu monks
A little shame is not important!
Of course Ye Jiming understands this truth.
It's easier said than done. Asking him to put down his face is no less than killing him.
But when he heard what Shen Zhou said before, he couldn't help but smile on his brows, "Five palaces with surnames and wealthy families in Jiushan will not be as easy to talk to as us. Xu Xing will face them sooner or later..."
There are some things that can make others do good to you, not just by showing off your face.
For example, some positions that are firmly controlled by aristocratic families...
Only names and tools cannot be used by others!
The way up is almost blocked.
"so……"
Shen Zhou placed Xu Xing's jade certificate in the row of Hansu disciples, alongside the jade certificates of the disciples from the adjacent family, "I'll say flattering words to him, but after leaving this door, some things won't even change.
"
Ye Jiming seemed to have some understanding after hearing this.
…
Things have priorities.
Seeing Yu Xue was not as serious as meeting Jiang, so Xu Xing first went to the Lushi Pavilion.
This time Jiang Yan happened to be here, so there was no need for the young female cultivator in the pavilion to send a transmission note to notify Jiang Yan. Without saying anything, Jiang Yan led Xu Xing directly into the inner hall. It was still the same room as last time.
Only this time there was an old man with a yellow face in the room.
"Let me introduce, this is Feng Pinggu, the monk stationed in Guangchuan Island. Like me, he is in the late stage of Immortal Foundation, but he has already started preparing the jade liquid to return the elixir... I believe that soon, senior brother Feng will become an elder in the sect.
Already."
"When the time comes, when we meet, we will call him Master Feng."
When Jiang Yan led Xu Xing through the door, he laughed and openly introduced the yellow-faced old man inside to Xu Xing.
After the introduction stopped, he introduced Xu Xing through a spiritual message the benefits of making friends with the yellow-faced old man, "The Guangchuan Island where Senior Brother Feng is stationed is rich in fire wood and golden flame insects. If Junior Brother is in need, you can
If you buy it from him at a low price, you don't have to go through the sect and you can save a lot of money."
"but……"
Having said that.
Jiang Yan paused for a moment, "If Senior Brother Feng asks you to borrow Ling Bei, Junior Brother Xu needs to think carefully before making a decision. Senior Brother Feng is over 370 years old. He suffered a hidden injury in his early years and his foundation is unstable.
The chance of making a breakthrough to return the elixir is very low. If you borrow too much, it will be all in vain."
"I lent him 30,000 spirit shells out of friendship. Any more would be prevaricating."
I would like to add the last sentence.
Even though Xu Xing would not say anything about Jiang Yan's actions on the surface, he secretly thought that Jiang Yan was a person who could not be trusted with others.
Let it drift away.
Thirty thousand spirit shells, maybe not much.
But it’s a lot for immortal monks like them!
The transmission of divine consciousness ends.
Xu Xing and Jiang Yan had already sat down together, sitting near Fengping Valley.
Jiang Yan should have introduced Xu Xing to Feng Pinggu a long time ago. Seeing Xu Xing enter, Feng Pinggu also put on a smile on his face, "This is the Junior Brother Xu that Junior Brother Jiang mentioned? Sure enough, he is a talented person. Junior Brother Xu has no time to build immortal foundations.
The future is bright and the Immortal Base barrier can be broken in a hundred years. Because of my age, I am getting a little advantage by calling Junior Brother Xu my Junior Brother."
In the world of immortality, there is no such thing as respecting the old and loving the young.
Among blood relatives, it is enough to respect the elders. Among people from the same sect, if the relationship is not close and they are not included in the genealogy of the master-disciple lineage, seniority is mostly based on the level of realm.
Xu Xing and Feng Pinggu bowed humbly to each other, and they were considered to have met.
Next.
After waiting for half a day, another man and a woman walked into the inner hall room. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. The two walked arm in arm, and they looked like a couple at first sight.
Jiang Yan, like the person who just introduced Feng Pinggu, used both speech and sound transmission.
This man and woman are well-known in the eastern waters of the Wangchuan Sea, and their name is Luoying Erxian. Although one of the couple is in the late stage of Immortal Base, and the other is in the middle stage of Immortal Base, with the cooperation of the couple, they have been unable to fight back against external forces.
As a result of the defeat, Luoying Island became famous for a while, and its reputation gradually spread far and wide.
"Luoying Island was originally an unnamed island. Later, the couple discovered a shell field here and excavated Lingbei... so the sect also named the island after the two of them..."
"Recently, the two couples' shell fields on Luoying Island have dried up... and they have also begun to have a relationship within the family, hoping to obtain the office of deacon in various cabinets within the family."
"Although deacons are not as free as monks stationed abroad and have higher incomes, once the deacons in the sect reach the late stage of the Immortal Foundation and the jade liquid returns to the elixir, they can apply to the sect for free for the twenty-year lease of the blessed land cave, as well as a
Condensing Soul Pill."
During the conversation, Jiang Yan told Xu Xing another secret.
In the scene of the fate deduction, Xu Xing could only see the general trend, but was not clear about some specific details.
For example, the difference between the monks stationed abroad and the deacons and elders mentioned today.
Monks stationed abroad are like foreign officials. Even if they are just a small county magistrate, they can make a lot of money.
The deacons and elders of various institutions within the sect are equivalent to officials in the capital. They live a miserable life, receiving a certain monthly salary to survive...
Jiang Yan, the deacon, made friends with these monks stationed abroad.
It's probably like how Beijing officials make friends with officials from other places. There is "charcoal respect" and "ice respect" from time to time, but it's not as obvious as the "charcoal respect" and "ice respect" bribery in the common folk.
"It seems that Jiang Yan has another circle of deacons and elders within the sect..."
"Use the power of the sect for personal gain, and then complete the mutual transfer of benefits."
"In other words, this is a huge interest network. The monks stationed abroad and the deacons and elders of the institutions within the sect bypass the sect and harm the public and enrich themselves. However..., unlike the secular world, the senior leaders of the sect have the ability to crush these deacons and elders.
Strength, so these actions are mostly small fights, and are not enough to overthrow the entire sect."
A glance tells the whole story. Xu Xing, a former Beijing official, saw the fishiness in this at a glance.
Because he has also accepted this "bribe".
Tan Jing and Bing Jing are the regular silver coins received by Beijing officials.
Not considered corruption!
It's just that unlike Beijing officials who are the backers of foreign officials, sect deacons and elders are not yet capable enough to become the backers of monks stationed abroad.
This kind of "bribery" is mostly for mutual benefit.
Someone in the sect is easy to do!

The banquet in the inner hall continued for three days. During this period, Xu Xing not only met the two immortals Feng Pinggu and Luoying, but also met several monks stationed abroad.
In addition to the monks stationed abroad, there is also Ding Zhong, the deacon of Lianbao Pavilion.
"If you want to purchase magic weapons in the future, you can contact Deacon Ding."
"His Lingbei can report damaged and used magic weapons to the sect and sell them at a good price. The price is 20% off the sect's official selling price, so he can save an extra 20% off..."
When he was full of wine and food, Jiang Yan lowered his voice and spoke to Xu Xing.
The cultivators present were all "worms" of the sect, so things like this were not surprising. There was no one else around, so Jiang Yan did not shy away from others and spoke frankly.
"Senior Brother Ding is good..."
"But Junior Brother has always been withdrawn by nature and is not good at dealing with others."
"If we really want to purchase magic weapons, we will have to rely on Senior Brother Jiang to speak kindly to Senior Brother Ding..."
Xu Xing's eyes flashed, and he immediately understood that this was Jiang Yan's test of him.
The transfer of interests between deacons and deacons….
Monks stationed abroad cannot cross this gap.
If he bypassed Jiang Yan when purchasing magical weapons, it would be equivalent to violating a taboo. Although this incident would not have much impact on him in the future, it would also be a disguised form of being excluded from this small circle.
In the future, it may be difficult to make profits through the network of relationships.
To purchase magical artifacts, go to Jiang Yan, and then Jiang Yan goes to Ding Zhong, which is an extra step. Then Jiang Yan is invisibly stained with an extra layer of oil and water. And in Ding Zhong's small circle, other people want to find Lu Shige.
Jiang Yan would also go through similar steps when doing things, letting Ding Zhong get a layer of oil and water...
No one can cross the boundary without permission!
Hearing the sound of the string and knowing its elegant meaning, Xu Xing took advantage of the situation and made a promise to Jiang Yan.
Likewise, there are good things in this matter.
From now on, when Ding Zhong falls, the sect will investigate and find out that all of them are the sect's deacons. The net set up by the elders will affect the whole body with just one hair, and big things will turn into small things, and small things will disappear.
But if the deacon is just colluding with a few monks stationed abroad, the sect will not easily show favoritism and will directly catch them all and bring them to justice.
"Easy to say, easy to say..."
After the words fell, Jiang Yan suddenly smiled brightly, secretly thinking that it is easier to deal with smart people. He clinked glasses with Xu Xing and drank a sip of wine from each other, "We are all brothers from the same school, so I am still willing to help my junior brother with this troublesome matter."
…”
"I wonder if junior brother intends to stay in the sect from now on or station abroad?"
He changed the subject.
Although it was a routine test just now, it would inevitably make Xu Xing feel a little unhappy.
What he said at this time was just nonsense.
Hansu disciples have not joined the family lineage. It is difficult for Hansu disciples to take the position of deacons and elders of this sect. Generally speaking, after Hansu disciples build the Immortal Foundation, they will automatically become monks stationed abroad.
Although being an official in the capital is hard, if a foreign official has the opportunity to become an official in the capital, who would be willing to give up easily.
When the deacons and elders of the sect squeeze in, within a few years, they will have huge connections. And every time they reach a realm, they will receive corresponding welfare benefits from the sect, and they will live an extremely comfortable life.
As for monks stationed abroad, if they dare to fight hard, they may make a lot of money, but in fact, more monks stationed abroad, although they live a free life, can exchange sect elixirs, magical weapons, etc., and they will
All the income is consumed, and the pain is gone.
There are only a few monks stationed abroad who can truly ride the wind!
"Senior Brother Jiang, what ability does Junior Brother have to stay in the sect and serve as a deacon..."
Xu Xing pretended to smile bitterly. He shook his head and looked at the Second Immortal Luo Ying, "Senior Brother Luo and Senior Sister Ying also earned a lot of spirit shells on Luo Ying Island. Only then did they have the money to come to the sect to seek the position of deacon, so that they could use the sect's welfare to break through and pay back their debts."
Junior Brother Dan has neither connections nor resources, so he can only become a miserable monk stationed abroad."
He has not forgotten the thousand-year-old zhiguo under Dieshan Island!
A thousand-year-old sesame fruit that allows him to quickly break through to the third level of the late Immortal Base is not worth as much as the shells on Luoying Island. It is worth nearly a million spirit shells at least.
Besides, his only official supporter is Lingyin Peak.
Although Lingyin Peak can arrange him as a deacon, most of these deacons are from Lingyin Peak. Those deacons cannot be compared with the deacons of sect institutions such as Lushi Pavilion and Lianbao Pavilion.
The deacon in the peak is not only frustrated, but also has no money to make money.
It is better to be sent abroad as a monk.
When you have earned enough money outside, you can then follow the example of Luo Ying Erxian and join the sect to seek a position as a deacon, and then borrow the benefits that the sect provides to deacons to break through and return the elixir.
You can't be rigid about the way you go.
"I wonder where Junior Brother Xu would like to station abroad? Ordinary countries? Forgotten Islands? Tianyun Peaks? I advise Junior Brother Xu to become a monk stationed on the island if he wants to go..."
"Although there are pirates and hostile forces causing trouble on the islands outside the Forget River Sea, they are also rich in resources. Just like Junior Brother Luo, when he discovers a shell field, there is hope for a fairyland."
"As for ordinary countries and the peaks of Tianyun, although they are more secure, the benefits they receive are not half as good as those of the monks stationed on the island."
Feng Pinggu sat next to Xu Xing, took the initiative to interrupt, and gave Xu Xing suggestions.
Feiyu Fairy Palace, in addition to the mortal countries and part of the Wangchuan Sea, also has a group of mountains in the southwest. These mountains are called Tianyun Mountains. Among them, Biyuan Mountain where Xu Xing temporarily lives belongs to the Tianyun Mountains.
A small mountain range.
"This is nature..."
Xu Xing nodded and agreed with Feng Pinggu's view.
He took the opportunity to ask: "I wonder if Senior Brother Feng has any islands that he can recommend to Junior Brother? Senior Brother Feng has been a monk stationed on the island for many years. I think he has a lot of experience. Junior Brother is just starting out..."
Dieshan Island is his goal.
But he couldn't blatantly propose that he wanted to be stationed on Dieshan Island and then ask Jiang Yan to help him operate it. In that case, Jiang Yan and others would be overly concerned.
"Well……"
Feng Buping was happy to talk about these little things. Anyway, it wouldn't waste any of his soul, it was a small thing that would benefit him without any expense. On the contrary, he could gain favor from Xu Xing.
"I am on Guangchuan Island in the eastern sea area of the Forgotten Sea... I recently heard that several large islands with rich products such as Lili Island and Xuanhuo Island are temporarily lacking monks. If Junior Brother wants to acquire them, these islands are excellent
of……"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! He pondered for a moment and said his proposal.
Next, he was afraid that Xu Xing would not understand the benefits of these two islands, so he introduced them in detail, "Liuli Island is rich in Liuguang Minnow, which is a delicacy for spiritual meals. According to the sect's rules, the monks stationed on the island can take half of the island's benefits.
With the dividends from the island, junior brother can learn a spell to cultivate spiritual fish in Tianshu Pavilion..."
“I can earn at least five thousand Lingbei every year!”
"Of course, you should also use it for other purposes, cultivating streamer minnows."
"Xuanhuo Island is rich in various types of Xuanhuo..."
Feng Pinggu said slowly.
"I practice the Evergreen Dao Sutra. Xuanhuo Island is not compatible with my practice, so I cannot go there. This is my first time as a monk stationed on the island. I want to put my cultivation first, but Liuguang Minyu has no intention of taking care of it..."
Xu Xing casually found a suitable excuse.
He changed the topic again, "I wonder if there are any islands in the western sea that are worth visiting."
Based on his qualifications and his friendship with Jiang Yan, the sect would never give him an island with few products in the derivation of fate.
Then Dieshan Island must be a good island in the western sea.
Sure enough, after mentioning several island names, Feng Pinggu said the three words "Dieshan Island".
"Dieshan Island is full of mountains and mountains, and the vegetation and spiritual energy are flourishing. Although there are no spiritual products worth mentioning, there is a fairy shop for monks to trade on Dieshan Island. Just send someone to take care of it, and you can collect a lot of dividends.
"
"This is a fat guy in the sect."
"It's not easy to seize Dieshan Island..."
When talking about Dieshan Island, Feng Pinggu shook his head and sighed.
"Junior Brother Xu, don't worry..."
"With my help in this matter, Dieshan Island will be captured for you."
Seeing the slightest movement in Xu Xing's eyes, Jiang Yan knew that Xu Xing must have taken a fancy to Dieshan Island. Also, Dieshan Island was in line with Xu Xing's needs, with more money and less trouble, and it was close to the inland sea of the western sea, so it was not dangerous.
