Don’t live in the city? When Yu Haihe heard this, he was extremely disappointed. After walking for a while, he asked softly, “Uncle, do you really not live in the city?”
"Well," Chen Taizhong nodded absently, then looked sideways at him, "Why, do you want to live in the city?"
Yu Haihe hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "I've never stayed in an inn before."
"Haha," Chen Taizhong laughed when he heard this, "Sometime you will stay in an inn in the future."
"Young master, if you encounter an inn like that that just attracts people, you must be very careful in the future," Uncle Wu also spoke. He was an old man in the world and took the opportunity to teach the young master a lesson. "It's best to stay at a distance if you have nothing to do to show your courtesy..."
.”
"Can we stay in another inn?" Yu Haihe still looked at his uncle pitifully.
"Not today," Chen Taizhong shook his head and replied simply, "I'm living outside the city. Your uncle Yi is alone outside the city."
"Oh," Yu Haihe said in a long voice and nodded his head twice. As soon as he heard this voice, he knew what the little guy was thinking.
"Oh, you are big." Chen Taizhong raised his hand and patted his bamboo hat, "It's raining, so we'd better get together."
"I understand, I understand," Yu Haihe chuckled.
You deserve a beating? Chen Taizhong was going to give this guy another beating, but after thinking about it again, he didn't bother to do anything, lest this guy get more and more wrong.
Lao Yi was fifty miles outside the city, sitting there quietly without even lighting a fire. When he saw them coming back, he didn't say anything. He just nodded lightly...
After a night of silence, it still rained the next day, and Chen Taizhong and the others entered the city again.
Near noon, he arrived in front of the dilapidated courtyard yesterday, where layman Bachi was already waiting.
Seeing him coming, Bachi layman took the initiative to hand over a jade slip, "This is what the Chu family wants to do in recent years."
Chen Taizhong took the jade slip and scanned it. There were only a dozen or so lines on it, some of which were about finding people but not objects, some about killing people and demons, and some about asking for attributes and skills.
After he finished reading, he looked at the other person and said, "Where did you get this?"
"In the Chu family's internal task hall, some tasks are not suitable for disclosure to the outside world," Bachi layman replied casually, "But in fact, outsiders can take over the Chu family's internal tasks... as long as you can get it."
"Oh," Chen Taizhong nodded. There were some tasks on the jade slips that were really not suitable to be made public.
For example, if we are looking for an immortal who disappeared nine hundred years ago from the Chu family, outsiders may know that this person is missing, but once the task is made public, the Chu family will officially admit that this person is missing - or that the Chu family believes that this person is not dead yet.
His attention was on one of the tasks. "Looking for life-extending drugs...what do you mean?"
"Who doesn't want life-extending medicine?" Layman Bachi answered casually, "Everyone knows that the Supreme Master of the Chu family failed to attack high-level immortals, and there is not much time left."
Such a mission can only be issued within the Chu family. Even if the outside world knows that the Chu family's supreme leader's time is short, once it is issued as a mission, it will be a positive recognition, so it cannot be issued.
"I can take on this task." Chen Taizhong nodded, "Who do I need to call?"
"Do you have life-extending medicine?" Bachi layman looked at him strangely, "Are you kidding me?"
His expression is normal, because... the life-extending medicine is a treasure wherever you get it. Most people have this thing, so they really have to be careful about others killing people and taking advantage of it.
Chen Taizhong nodded slightly and repeated his question, "I'm asking you...who you need to find."
"I really want to make sure that this joke is not made casually," Master Bachi's expression was extremely serious, "The Chu family has been asking for this medicine for a long time... If you lied to me, I would have to run away, but you also
It’s going to be bad luck.”
Of course Chen Taizhong was confident. He hesitated and replied, "The life-extending medicine can only be taken once. The other party may have taken it. You can't say that what I brought is not life-extending medicine, right?"
"Of course, he can't use it, so others can use it," the Bachi layman nodded simply, and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. He had always been worried that the other party was deceiving him.
Knowing that the other party really did, his thoughts became vivid, "Then I will try my best to help you get married, and we will be settled, right?"
After Chen Taizhong looked at him for a while, he nodded slightly and said, "Okay."
"It's not that I want to take away your credit," Bachi Jushi smiled coquettishly and explained patiently, "It's up to you to talk, but when handing out tasks, there must be a middleman, otherwise...how do you know the Chu family's internal tasks?"
"I know everything, go and do it quickly," Chen Taizhong waved his hand and didn't say much.
However, after the other party left, he immediately ordered Yu Haihe, "You and Uncle Wu leave the city first. If you encounter any situation, just hold up the amulet and run to Uncle Yi."
"My talisman is running out of energy," Yu Yuqian laughed and stretched out a hand, "Uncle, after you ascend to immortality, is it time for you to give me a new talisman?"
"I really owe you," Chen Taizhong muttered dissatisfiedly. He originally wanted to do it after a while, but Yu Yu had already spoken, and he was too embarrassed to refuse.
It is not difficult to make a talisman. What is difficult is to instill spiritual energy and drop blood essence. Chen, who is already an immortal, is really familiar with this. It took less than half an hour to make a talisman.
The time is a little rushed, but the effect is definitely much stronger than the talisman made during the spirit fairy period.
Just be stronger. You can't ask too much from me, right? Chen Taizhong handed the amulet over, "Feel free to use it, but don't spare me the money. If I advance to the intermediate level, I'll make a new one for you."
"Thank you, uncle, there's no rush," Yu Haihe replied with a smile, took the amulet and turned to leave.
Seeing them leaving, Chen Taizhong set up a simple spirit gathering array, sat cross-legged and meditated, and at the same time did not forget to swallow two pills - to replenish the essence and blood.
The thin old man went to talk about something. Once the news spread, he doubted very much whether he would be besieged by others.
Who wouldn’t be tempted by medicines that can prolong life?
Therefore, he must restore his body to its best condition as soon as possible in order to cope with possible situations. It is not a bad thing to think a little less well and be more prepared.
In the afternoon, Layman Bachi came again and said, "The communication has been completed. Chu Xianbai wants to have an interview with you."
"Are you leading the way?" Chen Taizhong raised his hand and asked casually, "Is Chu Xianbai the supreme leader or the clan leader?"
"Clan leader," Bachi layman replied calmly - this guy is really not a stranger to Xiao Feiyun, "but he can decide what to exchange with you and how to exchange."
Chen Taizhong nodded slightly, "Arrange it as soon as possible."
"No need to make arrangements, just follow me now," Bachi layman turned around and walked out.
He was Feiyuntong, so it was really no problem to get a little convenience. Not long after, he took Chen Taizhong to the door of Chu's house.
The Chu family occupies four large residential areas in the city, one each in the southeast and northwest. This time they came near the north gate.
The Bachi layman released a communication crane, and not long after, two people, a man and a woman, walked out of the door. They nodded to him without saying much, and then waved to Chen Taizhong, "Invite you."
There was also a guard at the door, but he didn't ask any questions and allowed the two of them to take the person in.
After walking through several large courtyards, we came to a small courtyard. As soon as we entered the courtyard, we heard someone say, "Okay, you two can leave. Please come in."
The sound came from a huge house. Chen Taizhong didn't wait for the other party to say anything. He took a few steps to the door of the house, raised his legs and walked in.
The light in the room was not very clear. A skinny old woman was sitting cross-legged on a high platform. Next to her was a middle-aged man who was making tea for her.
Seeing him come in, the middle-aged man put down the teapot in his hand, stood up straight, smiled and nodded, "Your distinguished guest Haihan, I am busy serving my ancestors and have never traveled far to welcome you."
Chen Taizhong ignored him, but focused his eyes on the old woman. He pondered for a moment before asking, "But the Chu family's wife is in front of you?"
This woman is truly a sixth-level immortal, and she should be the one with the highest cultivation level in the Chu family.
Hearing this, the old woman opened her eyes to look at him, then nodded slightly and spoke slowly, "A very powerful young man. He has an ancient Qi cultivation inheritance and is extremely pure."
This look really made Chen Taizhong's hair stand on end. He just felt that his whole body was being looked at by the other party. It was like meeting Deng Die for the first time and being scanned by the spiritual eye.
But compared with this glance, the spiritual vision technique was a bit childish. He frowned and asked, "Who are you?"
This look is simply not something that ordinary mid-level immortals can perform.
"This is my Supreme Being," the middle-aged man coughed lightly, then waved his hand, "Dear guest, please take a seat. I am Chu Xianbai."
There are two chairs and a table next to it. There is a white jade pot on the table. There is a light steam coming from the mouth of the pot. There are two tea bowls next to the jade pot. The dense water vapor is scattered in the air, revealing a refreshing fragrance.
It's so ethereal.
"You don't have to sit down. I'm here to negotiate a deal." Chen Taizhong also handed over his hand, and he was extremely vigilant. This old woman was really scary, and he didn't want to get too close to her. "I heard that the Chu family is collecting life-extending drugs, especially
Come in exchange."
The middle-aged man glanced at the old woman and found that she had no reaction, so he nodded and asked, "What kind of medicine does your distinguished guest have?"
Chen Taizhong pondered for a moment and replied slowly, "Thousand-year-old black jade fruit."
"Thousand-year-old Black Jade Fruit?" The middle-aged man's eyes lit up. This thing is not a medicine, but a medicinal material. Even if taken raw, it can increase your life by fifty years. "Can you show it to me?"
Of course Chen Taizhong can show it, and he is not afraid to show it, but he frowned, "The Chu family won't listen to what I want?"
Let’s discuss the sale first. Once the deal is done, we’ll inspect the goods.
He was not a cautious person, but the Chu family's prince gave him a bad feeling. He wanted to finalize the contract first, and then talk about advance payment and delivery.
Chu Xianbai is also an exquisite person. Anyone who can become a clan leader is not too bad. He was stunned at first, and then smiled slightly, "I just want to ask, what do you want?"
