Chen Taizhong's spiritual consciousness was locked, and he finally lost track of the two immortals.
There was no way. If his consciousness was too strong, he would be easily discovered by the other party. He could only lock it gently, but there were too many people in Meishui City.
These two immortals have something evil in mind, and they specialize in sneaking around in crowded places.
When the distance exceeded one mile, Chen Taizhong really couldn't lock the two of them.
As soon as he recovered his consciousness, a powerful consciousness swept over him, startling him immediately.
Looking at the direction in which his spiritual consciousness swept, he smacked his lips gently and saw that it was the county governor's mansion more than a mile away.
This must be the divine consciousness of the immortals. Chen Taizhong was already annoyed that he had lost someone, and he almost attracted the attention of the immortals. He had no intention of wandering around anymore, "Let's look around and see if there is an empty room somewhere."
"How can I let you live outside when you come to Meishui?" Xie Mingju laughed, "Wouldn't that make people laugh, my Xie family doesn't know how to treat guests?"
"I've already caused a lot of trouble to your family," Chen Taizhong said politely, but he didn't seem to refuse.
"I'll take you two here, and I'll go back alone. The master of the house can't spare me," Xie Mingju smiled and held his hands, "Dear guest, I really don't want to follow the family's rules... I don't have much yard, but the guest room is absolutely clean."
This invitation was sincere, and he originally doubted whether the family's emphasis on these two people was a little too much, but the scene just now made him fully understand that these two guests were really not easy to mess with.
He could clearly see that the invisible thief was revealed with just a flash of consciousness, while the seventh-level maid faced off against the two immortals without flinching at all.
The guests that the second elder entertained solemnly must indeed have a good background.
The three of them came and left just as quickly. When they returned to Sanxi Town, it was not even dark yet.
Xie Mingju arranged the two of them into a secluded courtyard on half an acre of land. This was the case for a newly-born family. It was not rich enough to have a luxurious reception venue like the Jiang family in Giant Pine City.
However, this small courtyard is quite nice to provide peace and quiet in the midst of the bustle. The owner at least put some thought into it.
When it got dark, Xie Mingju came to invite them again. Xie Mingxian, the second elder of the Xie family, and Xie Haofeng, the head of the Xie family, invited the distinguished guests to have dinner together.
The power structure of the Xie family is different from that of other families. The head of the family, Xie Haofeng, is only a ninth-level wandering immortal, and the Hao generation he belongs to is one level higher than the Ming generation.
The two younger generations have been promoted to spirit immortals, and Xie Haofeng originally wanted to become the head of the family. However, neither of them is interested in this, and both of them are working for the official family. They cannot live in seclusion like the ancestors of ordinary families.
Retreat.
Neither of them even wanted to be called ancestors. Their family background was too thin, so it was better to keep a low profile.
So today's banquet is also led by Xie Haofeng. Xie Mingxian is just a guest.
What's interesting is that the maid Wang Yanyan also came to the table to eat, and the Xie family didn't show anything.
After a meal, the host and the guest were very happy with each other. After the servants had removed the food and wine, Xie Haofeng asked with a smile, "I heard that Mr. Chen has a guide to immortality. I wonder if the Xie family can borrow it for use? What's the cost?
It’s all easy to discuss.”
"It doesn't matter, this thing is meant for people to use," Chen Taizhong waved his hand nonchalantly and looked at the other party, "But you should stop spreading the word. It's a trivial matter for us to be harassed by others. The key is that it is not good for the children of your Xie family.
, can you understand what I said?"
The unfavorable thing he mentioned was that once the Xie family detects a seedling to become an immortal, the local sects will definitely come to find him. At that time, no matter whether the skills are suitable or not, the Xie family's children will inevitably get into trouble.
"Of course," Xie Haofeng smiled and nodded. He was already a member of a family, so he understood the secrets involved. Then he turned to look at the masked Scar, "Then I'll bother you, Princess Xiu."
Wang Yanyan nodded and replied calmly, "This matter will be carried out as soon as possible."
They are here to participate in the drug trade, so it doesn't matter if they help, they can't delay the business.
The Xie family was overjoyed to see the two of them agreeing readily, and immediately sent out an order, asking everyone in the family to prepare for the qualification test as soon as possible, and at the same time strictly keep confidentiality.
Even so, it was also on the afternoon of the next day that the Xie family gathered all the tribesmen to be tested, including more than 600 children and teenagers, and more than 400 young people.
These young people also have the problem of whether the skills are compatible. The Xie family's bloodline is mainly earth-based, and they major in earth-based skills. However, earth-based skills also have different emphasis, and for such a big family, the bloodline
There are not a few deviations among them.
This test took three days and three nights.
Wang Yanyan is in charge of testing, and other things such as maintaining order, writing records, and judging attributes are all done by the Xie family.
After everyone's blood sample was taken, they could only wait there. They could not even see Wang Yanyan herself, let alone the Immortal Book. As for their own qualifications, they were even less likely to know.
The Xie family did a very good job of keeping secrets. Although many Xie family members suspected that they might have obtained the Book of Immortals, they were just suspicions.
As for the heads of the Xie family, Xie Haofeng and Xie Mingxian, they stayed with Wang Yanyan all the time and did not rest for three days and three nights.
At the beginning of the third day, Xie Mingfeng, the spirit fairy who was on a mission, returned with a group of Xie family disciples. They received the news on the way and walked for a whole day and night before rushing back - some of them also wanted to
Take the test.
Overall, this test was quite satisfactory. The Xie family did not have the kind of seedlings that were sure to become immortals, but it still identified four or five people with very promising prospects.
One of them is already at the peak of the eighth level and has dual attributes of metal and earth. As long as he stabilizes the earth system skills and finds a suitable metal skill when attacking the spirit immortal, under the influence of "earth-born gold", it is not possible to attack the spirit immortal.
question.
The only thing that can be considered is that after this person is promoted to the level of Spirit Immortal, he must base himself on earth-based skills and improve on metal-based skills. Of the two, he prefers gold, which deviates from the traditional attributes of the Xie family's skills.
But if it really succeeds, an intermediate or even high-level spirit immortal may appear in the Xie family in the near future.
For the Xie family, which has a shallow foundation, this is undoubtedly excellent news.
Of course, there are also discordant notes. A grandson of the head of the family, Xie Haofeng, is already a second-level Immortal at a young age, and is also highly regarded by everyone. His aptitude was very bad. He actually had the dual attributes of wood and earth, and also had "light"
” auxiliary attributes.
This attribute is extremely bad. Wood defeats earth, and earth and light generally cannot be adjusted together. When the child heard that his attribute was not very good, he immediately made a fuss and had to test it again.
Wang Yanyan must be too lazy to agree. She said in her heart that I only help your family test it and don't care about your growth. Is it necessary to cheat?
Moreover, the Dengxianjian belongs to the Ten Thousand Ji Sect and has never missed anything - it is an important test tool for the sect.
So she just smiled faintly, "This kid... is really interesting."
Xie Haofeng's expression changed, and he spoke directly, "Drag him out and starve him for five days. If you don't clean him up properly, sooner or later the Xie family will be ruined in the hands of these children who don't know the heights of heaven and earth. He has not yet become a person, but he has learned how to show off... This
This is the path to self-destruction!”
He is a witness to the Xie family's resurgence. He knows that the rise of the family is not easy. When the foundation is still shallow, it is too late to hide the clumsiness. How can he dare to tolerate such a young master's temper?
In short, a small and emerging family like the Xie family still has a very strong sense of crisis, and its atmosphere is relatively positive.
Chen Taizhong's master and servant were at Xie's house and were taken care of in every possible way.
After Wang Yanyan finished the test, she rested for a whole day and night. When she got up again, she was full of energy.
Now, there were only four or five days before the drug transaction. In the afternoon of that day, brothers Xie Mingfeng and Xie Mingxian came to visit.
Xie Mingfeng is older and taller than his cousin. He looks very brave, but he doesn't talk much and gives people a very stable feeling.
Xie Mingxian said with a smile, "If the two distinguished guests have had a good rest, we can leave early tomorrow morning... This time the trading place is crowded, I will be the only one to accompany the two of them. How do you like it, Mr. Chen?"
"Just have someone to lead the way," Chen Taizhong smiled and nodded, "Safety first."
Early the next morning, the three of them set off from Sanxi Town and headed north directly to the foot of Beishan Mountain. Xie Mingxian suggested leaving the three wildebeests at the farmhouse. "The next step is to climb over the mountain. Lead the horses.
inconvenient."
Wang Yanyan patted the flower basket and took the three wildebeests in. She smiled and said, "You'd better take it with you."
Xie Mingxian glanced at her with a strange look in his eyes, "Then...just take it with you."
The mountains in Beishan are not small, rolling up and down as far as the eye can see.
Fortunately, the Xie family is worthy of being the local aborigines. Xie Mingxian led the two of them on the mountain trails. Sometimes you can't see the road at all on the trails, but when you step on it, you can feel the thickness and texture of the soil.
hard.
It turns out that there are very few people walking on this path. No one has walked on it for a few days, and shrubs and grass have covered the path again.
The three of them climbed four or five hills, and it was in the afternoon. At this time, light rain started to fall from the sky.
Even though the three of them are cultivators and have cultivation skills, this Xiaoyu is quite noisy.
Chen Taizhong had a spirit boat in his hand, but it was not suitable to use it at the moment. Wang Yanyan took out an umbrella and held it up for the owner, while she herself held up a disk to protect her from the rain above her head.
"Fortunately, it's not far," Xie Mingxian also took out an umbrella, held it on his head, and said with a smile, "This Hulu Gorge should actually be walked from the direction of Tiechuan, but that would be too far, and from this trail
It’s not too noticeable when you walk away.”
However, he said this a little too early. The three of them walked for another half an hour. Just when the mountain road began to become muddy, they finally went down the mountain and walked through the hills.
Not far away, seven or eight people suddenly appeared in front of them, shouting, "Stop, what are you doing?"
In addition to the ninth-level wandering immortals, the people blocking the road also had two spirit immortals, and under a big umbrella in the distance, there were three more spirit immortals sitting.
(My friend has a special event at home, so I posted it in advance. I will try to add an update tomorrow afternoon and call for monthly tickets.)
