Qi Taishan said no more, and the two of them, with confused expressions on their faces, watched Xu Luo's back disappear from the gate of the lower courtyard not far away.
Although the Begging Union has strict rules and regulations, it must be said that it treats the practitioners under its rule fairly, and can even be said to be extremely generous.
Especially for someone like Xu Luo, who is determined to be in the Begging Union's lap, the arrangements are even more meticulous.
Seeing Xu Luo return to Xianyuan Pavilion, even Old Man Yun, who was extremely dissatisfied with him, showed no signs of neglect.
"This is the access ticket to the stone retreat room in the backyard!"
Old Man Yun took out an exquisite stone tiger from his storage bag and placed it in front of Xu Luo.
"Remember the deadline is one year, and no one will bother you during this period.
But if you fail to come out on your own after a year, the skills and treasures left behind, and even all the property in Black Turtle City, will be charged to the lower courtyard warehouse to make up for the losses."
Old Man Yun hesitated for a moment and then continued.
"Even if you have relatives in the city, if you fail to step into the gate of practice, you will be kicked out without mercy. You'd better be prepared."
Seeing Xu Luo nodding to indicate understanding, he took out various things from the bag and placed them on the table in a dazzling array.
"A box of one hundred spiritual dews, three earth-level pure heart and calming talismans, two hundred hundred-year-old spiritual fruits, and several pills..."
Looking at the dazzling array of treasures on the table, Xu Luo began to be a little surprised. These things were extremely useful even for him who was in the Ningsha Realm.
This local tycoon style, tsk tsk...
After displaying everything one by one, Old Man Yun put them all into a small bag and handed them to Xu Luo.
"All the rations given to you by the House of Commons are in it. Please sign and pledge them after the counting is correct."
Xu Luo wrote Bai Zhile's name on the book he handed over. Old Man Yun couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth as he looked at his ghostly handwriting.
"If you are ready, I will take you to the stone chamber in the back mountain now."
Xu Luo didn't say anything, just cupped his hands towards him.
Old Yun put the booklet in his arms and wandered out of Xianyuan Pavilion. Xu Luo quickly followed behind.
What puzzled him was that Old Man Yun seemed to be a different person today. As he walked, he continued to explain to him what he needed to pay attention to.
Xu Luo frowned slightly, and his mind subconsciously turned towards Tongmingxin, but he didn't detect anything dangerous and unusual, so he simply let him go.
Compared with the crowds in front, the mountain behind the lower courtyard is obviously much quieter.
In less than one stick of incense, a two-story stone tower appeared in their sight.
Old Man Yun was about to say something but suddenly stopped and looked at Xu Luo with a hint of pity in his eyes.
At the same time, a chubby figure who looked like a foreign minister appeared in front of the two of them out of thin air, blocking the way into the stone tower intentionally or unintentionally.
To Old Man Yun's surprise, Xu Luo's expression was still extremely calm at this time, as if he had not seen the middle-aged man who clearly had bad intentions.
"You are Deacon Bai Zhile, I am Bu Zhongji. I didn't expect that I, Qingchuanfang, would have such an amazing character like you!"
The visitor turned out to be Bu Zhongji, the head of the Bu family.
He didn't even look at Old Yun, but looked at Xu Luo's body with interest, and there was no sign of tension on his fat face.
Xu Luo finally moved his eyes away from Old Yun, who looked weak at him, and looked at Bu Zhongji, who looked like a common shopkeeper, but his face no longer had the previous flattery.
"Bai Zhile has met the head of the Bu family. I wonder what the head of the family wants to do when he blocks the way?"
Looking at Xu Luo with an innocent expression on his face, Bu Zhongji's smile froze. He really didn't expect that Bai Zhile seemed to be more shameless than himself.
He laughed subconsciously.
"Deacon Bai has been working for our Qingchuanfang for nearly ten years. Now his cultivation has improved even more, both in public and private matters. As the head of the family, I have to come and visit him."
Having said this, he glanced at Xu Luo from the corner of his eye, who was not even moved at all, and then murmured with a worried expression.
"What's more, cultivation has always been the most dangerous thing. Even if Deacon Bai has full confidence in Ningsha, after all, there are elders in the family and younger ones...
Oh, that child’s name is Xiaoya, right?
Gee, what a good name! If something unexpected happens then, wouldn’t they be heartbroken?”
At this moment, Xu Luo had the name of an animal running through his mind, but actually he wasn't too surprised.
He is very familiar with the behavior of these powerful forces who are glamorous and majestic on the surface, but if nothing unexpected happens at this time, I am afraid that Bai Fu's son and grandson have no idea where to hide.
With Bai Zhile's scheming temperament, how could he not have thought of this?
Even Xu Luo only knew that the two of them had disguised themselves as boat people and hid in a remote area of the Broken Sky Sea.
"If I guessed correctly, you probably didn't know Xiaoya's name until you looked through the information before coming here!"
Xu Luo looked up at the sky, his face full of mockery.
"Including the owner of the family immediately notifying Qingye Pharmacy, plus the time it takes to arrest the person, it is estimated that the news will be sent back in a few moments.
Then the head of the family might as well guess again, where are the old man and Xiaoya now?"
Bu Zhongji's eyes narrowed, knowing that this idle move would most likely result in failure. From this point of view, Bai Zhile had already had second thoughts since the day he planted the green silk mushroom.
If it weren't for the facts before his eyes, Bu Zhongji would never have imagined that a young deacon under his command would dare to put his plan on the Bu family's head, and at this rate, he would most likely succeed.
This naked slap in the face really made him feel aggrieved.
However, he can take charge of such a big Bu family, so naturally he is not an easy person to deal with. In just a moment, Bu Zhongji had already suppressed the anger in his heart and sighed.
"Butler Bai has been prepared for it. It seems he has a plan in his heart. It's been ten years. This kind of character is really admirable!"
Hearing his frank admission of inferiority, Xu Luo's face changed slightly. This kind of flexible old fox is the most difficult to deal with.
Bu Zhongji seemed not to notice anything unusual and still said warmly.
"Deacon Bai's retreat will be quite short. I wonder if the two good brothers you brought into Qingchuanfang have been properly arranged?
If you have any difficulties, remember to tell the boss that Manager Yang is still waiting for you to be promoted to Ningsha before he comes out to celebrate with a drink..."
This time, before Xu Luo could answer, a rough voice sounded first.
"Brother Bai and I, Qi Taishan, hit it off immediately. His friends and brothers are naturally mine. Now those two brothers are in the junior's house. Why don't you go and visit them in person, Master Bu?"
Qitaishan's tall figure suddenly appeared in the sight of several people.
Xu Luo was a little stunned at first, but then his heart felt warm.
He didn't expect that Qi Taishan, a rough man, would directly contradict Bu Zhongji for his cheap brother.
The person involved, Xu Luo, was so surprised. You can imagine how confused Bu Zhongji was in his heart.
When Old Man Yun saw Qi Taishan, his hard-working colleague in the past, he subconsciously wanted to scold him.
But just as he opened his mouth, Qi Taishan looked over coldly as if he had expected it.
"You're such an old killer, so you shut up. You can't afford to offend the Bu family, but can you really afford to offend me, young master?"
Old Yun subconsciously wanted to laugh out loud, but when he suddenly thought of Qi Taishan's last name, his expression instantly turned extremely pale.
Medicine from the Bu family, wine from the Qi family...
The Xuangui Chengbu family has not yet reached the point where it can dominate the world with one hand. Xianglufang is also a big merchant on par with Qingchuanfang.
But since Qi Taishan is from the Qi family, why is he so talkative on weekdays?
In the past two years, Old Man Yun has been pushing Qi Taishan a lot because of his qualifications. Not only does he speak openly, but Qi Taishan does all the hard work on weekdays.
At this time, old man Yun's heart was bleeding. Apart from fear, he was also secretly cursing Qi Taishan for this bastard who did not deserve to be a son of man.
You said you have such a big background, why do you want to hang out in Xianyuan Pavilion?
Your pockmark isn't called pockmarked, it's called a trap!
Seeing that he had become more honest, Qi Taishan, who had a simple and honest temper, ignored him and saluted Bu Zhongji with a serious look.'
"Junior Qi Taishan has met Master Bu!"
Bu Zhongji seemed to have finally recovered from his surprise. He looked at Qi Taishan meaningfully, then shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly:
"There is no need to be polite to my good nephew. Our families have been friends for generations, so why do you need to come into this troubled water?"
Friendship from generation to generation?
Qi Taishan's ugly face was obviously shocked by these words. As the only legitimate son of the Qi family, he really didn't know when the Bu family had such a deep relationship with his own family.
But according to his temperament, he would definitely not be able to do such a slap in the face. Besides, Bu Zhongji is of the same generation as his father. Considering his age, it is not too much for him to call him uncle.
"Uncle Bu is right, but since Brother Bai wants to contribute to the Exorcism Department of the House of Commons, my uncle is not as rich as you, so what can he do to fulfill his wish?
After all, when it comes to the Broken Sea Black Turtle City, everyone belongs to the Begging Union family, you always said that, right?"
While Qi Taishan was talking, his tall figure blocked Xu Luo intentionally or unintentionally.
This action almost tells others that this person is guaranteed to be safe today!
Bu Zhongji finally couldn't maintain his calm demeanor anymore, and his face became a little ugly.
I've heard that Qi Taishan has been a bit generous and loyal since he was a child. Well, this is a good thing to say. To put it simply, he is a fool and a fool.
However, he is the only male direct descendant of this generation of the Qi family. With this identity, he is the next generation leader of the Qi family.
Even if someone with such a status farts, a lot of people in Black Turtle City want to rush up and smell the smell.
At this moment, everyone was calling them uncle. How could I offend such a stubborn person for the sake of two green silk mushrooms?
Well, as for the two people who died in Xu Luo's hands, bah, they were just two dogs. How could the two green silk mushrooms prepared for the younger generations of the family be important?
Just when Bu Zhongji's expression changed and he was weighing the gains and losses in his heart, a hoarse cough sounded in everyone's ears.
“Cough, cough, do you bastards think I’m a dead person?
Um……"
The last word exploded in everyone's ears like thunder. Several people felt that their minds went blank for a moment, leaving only countless buzzing sounds. It took a long time before they came back to their senses.
Xu Luo's eyes were full of shock, and even he was caught off guard and was dizzy for a few breaths just now.
If the two of them were fighting, no one would know how many times they would kill him at this moment.
Bu Zhongji's face turned pale, but immediately there seemed to be invisible energy rushing into the ground from under his feet, and his complexion instantly returned to normal.
Only Qi Taishan, a fool, refused to give in and his blood surged violently, and he roared loudly.
But when he opened his mouth, only a large puff of blood spurted out. Immediately, a touch of pleasure appeared on his ugly face, and he looked towards the place where the sound came from with bright eyes.
Looking at him like this, he seemed like he wanted to rush forward and get beaten up again.
Xu Luo quickly grabbed his thick arm and stepped on the ankle of Old Yun who was already unconscious on the ground without leaving any trace.
A crisp click sounded clearly in several people's ears. Bu Zhongji and Qi Taishan, who had just come back to their senses, looked at the sound with shock on their faces, and then looked at Xu Luo with an innocent face in disbelief.
Tsk tsk, you cruel man, you really can’t take revenge overnight!
"Fatty Bu, and that kid from the Qi family, have you forgotten where this place is?
If you have any grievances, go to Suikong Sea and beat them to death, get out of here!"
This man didn't even show his face, but he spoke as if he was lecturing his own son.
Bu Zhongji, however, had a look of surprise on his face that could not be concealed. He couldn't figure out why this man would come to interfere in such a nosy matter?
As long as this kind of thing doesn't make too big a fuss, didn't the House of Commons always turn a blind eye and close an eye?
But now that the master had spoken, Bu Zhongji could only stare at Xu Luo deeply, then bowed respectfully towards the stone tower and disappeared silently.
No matter how reckless Qi Taishan was at this time, he did not dare to make any more mistakes. He silently opened his lips towards Xu Luo.
"Promote with peace of mind, I'm outside!"
Although Xu Luo was full of doubts, this result was obviously beneficial to him. He immediately waved to Qi Taishan and watched him sneak out.
At this time, Old Yun, who had been unconscious just now, shuddered and opened his eyes.
But immediately a cold voice sounded in his ears.
"Since you are considered an old man in the House of Commons, I will give you a small punishment but a big warning this time. Next time, you will hand over your identity jade token and get out of Black Turtle City."
Old Man Yun seemed to have finally understood something, and knelt down on the ground, kowtowing as if pounding garlic.
"I would like to thank you for raising your hand. Your kindness is so great..."
"Okay, let's bring people in!"
The voice interrupted him angrily, and Old Man Yun immediately got up obediently and showed a flattering smile towards Xu Luo as if changing his face.
'
"Master Bai, please come with me. Our lower courtyard retreat is built directly underground."
Xu Luo followed him into the stone tower. Although there was no window in the tower, the inside was as bright as day, with complicated rune lines all over the surrounding stone walls.
Hearing the commotion, an old man holding a cattail leaf fan behind the door half-opened his eyes, and his gaze fell directly on Xu Luo behind him.
After a while, the old man seemed to have noticed something, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he waved directly to the two people who were saluting.
The zigzag steps seem to extend all the way to the ground.
Xu Luo was keenly aware that the underground spiritual energy was actually stronger than that of his own small courtyard, and he was somewhat looking forward to what the retreat stone chamber would look like.
His promotion to Ningsha this time is naturally fake, but it doesn't mean that he can't secretly earn more wool.
