Wang Daoyuan asked his second brother Wang Daoxing to take the two people with unnatural expressions out. The remaining three people had no abnormal expressions and were unlikely to have problems. If they asked together, they would not be afraid of leaking the secret.
He asked all three of them and found out that they were indeed ordinary casual cultivators.
After asking, the three of them took the spiritual stones and walked away happily. Even the side effects of using the Heart-Questing Talisman seemed to be gone.
Next, Wang Daoyuan asked Lin Yuan to come in, put a heart-inquiring charm on it, and asked: "Whose last name is there and where are they from?"
Lin Yuan replied: "My surname is Liang and my given name is Zixing. I come from Qingyun Peak."
Wang Daoyuan and Wang Shoujiang were both a little surprised that they really caught the person with evil intentions.
Qingyun Peak is the hometown of the Liang family, and the younger generation of the Liang family is the younger generation.
Wang Daoyuan stopped asking questions, took advantage of Liang Zixing being restrained, struck him on the back of the neck with his palm, knocked him unconscious, affixed a soul-calming charm on him, took off the storage bag from his waist, and put him into a
In the spirit beast bag.
Wang Shoujiang praised: "It's better to be careful and careful. It seems that the Liang family is still evil and wants to embezzle the property of our Wang family."
Wang Daoyuan smiled and said: "This kid sneaked in with me, and as soon as he saw me, he said that he wanted to marry into the Wang family. Ordinary casual cultivators really have the intention to marry into the Wang family, how can they spread it everywhere.
The Liang family seems to want to expand, so they sent people to check out the area first."
After that, he asked Wang Daoxing to bring in the remaining person.
When the man saw Liang Zixing come in but didn't see him go out, he was a little scared and wanted to resist. But in Wang Daoxing's hands, he couldn't act like a monster.
Wang Daoxing restrained him, and Wang Daoyuan put a question mark on him and asked: "Whose name is there and where are they from?"
The casual cultivator replied: "My surname is Chen Mingliang, from Lvliuzhou."
Wang Daoyuan asked his eighth uncle Wang Shoujiang: "Where is Green Liuzhou?"
Wang Shoujiang replied: "In the upper reaches of Qingxi, on the outskirts of the Tianzhan Mountains, there is a large basin with low-lying terrain, and many streams merge into it, forming a large lake.
There is a green willow tree in the middle of the lake. It has lived for an unknown number of years. Silt and sand accumulated near the roots of the tree, gradually forming a small island.
After countless years, the small island has turned into a large island with a radius of several hundred miles, called Green Liuzhou. Several foundation-building casual cultivators worked together to create a small city.
Therefore, there are many casual cultivators gathered in Green Liuzhou, and many of them are wanted by the three major sects."
After saying that, Wang Shoujiang took off the heart-asking talisman on Chen Liang's forehead and said, "I wonder why this fellow Daoist Chen from Green Liuzhou is here?
The Wang family has no business dealings with Luliuzhou, and has never had any enmity with Luliuzhou. Could it be that fellow Taoists from Luliuzhou want to rob Jingtie Mountain?"
When Chen Liang heard this, he knew that his identity had been exposed and he might be handed over to the Netherworld Sect.
He was tough, neither humble nor arrogant, and said: "Why don't fellow Taoists continue to use the Heart-Questing Talisman?"
Wang Shoujiang said: "My Wang family has no intention of becoming an enemy of Lvliuzhou. Since we know that our Taoist friends are from Lvliuzhou, we must treat each other with courtesy.
It’s just that the Taoist friends sent by Luliuzhou came here to tell me what is going on.”
Seeing that Wang Shoujiang had no intention of killing him, Chen Liang said: "My master asked me to contact the Wang family and want to do business with them. I had no way out, so I had to go to Jingtieshan to inquire about the news."
Wang Shoujiang asked with a strange look on his face: "Is it possible that your master doesn't know the prohibition of Netherworld Sect?
The Netherworld Sect prohibits affiliated forces from doing business with the wandering cultivators who are exiled in the Tianzhan Mountains. Our Wang family’s necks are not as tough as the Netherworld Sect’s knives. I beg your pardon that the Wang family dare not do this business.”
Chen Liang hurriedly replied: "Of course my master knows the prohibitions of the Netherworld Sect.
But this ban is only superficial. In fact, there are many families that interact with Green Liuzhou, and some families of Netherworld Sect elders are no exception.
Green Liuzhou is located on the outskirts of the Tianzhan Mountains. Although the conditions are relatively good, they are far inferior to those in Taiping, Qingli County.
In a place where monsters are rampant, it is impossible to grow elixirs on a large scale, and there is not even enough spiritual grain to eat.
In order to find spiritual objects, the monks in Green Willow Island had to go deep into the places where monsters were entrenched. In addition, due to the lack of magic weapons, spiritual talismans, and elixirs, the monks who went into the mountains to hunt suffered heavy losses.
My master doesn’t ask for anything good from the Wang family. He only wants the Wang family to sell some spiritual grains, elixirs, and spiritual talismans. If the Wang family is afraid of being involved, Lvliuzhou can also send people to get the goods.
If the Wang family sells things to casual cultivators in the Netherworld Sect’s territory, it doesn’t violate the Netherworld Sect’s prohibition, right?”
Wang Shoujiang began to ponder, and Wang Daoyuan asked: "Then what can my Wang family get from doing business with Lvliuzhou? Don't tell me about spiritual stones. You can also get these things in Qinglifang City, and there is no risk of losing your head."
Chen Liang glanced at Wang Daoyuan and felt that this young man was difficult to deal with. He smiled and said: "Don't worry, fellow Taoist, how can this kind of business only use spiritual stones.
My master said that we can use spiritual stones to settle the settlement, or we can barter, using the elixirs and ores from the periphery of the Tianzhan Mountain Range in exchange for the Wang family's spiritual grains, spiritual talismans, and elixirs.
Moreover, if the Wang family is interested in Luliuzhoufang City, my master can allow the Wang family to open a store in Luliuzhoufang City."
Wang Shoujiang was a little moved and said: "I have no right to agree to this matter. I need to ask the clan leader for instructions. In order to prevent the news from leaking, I also ask fellow Taoists to stay in Jingtieshan for a few days."
After that, Wang Shoujiang gave Chen Liang ten spiritual stones. Chen Liang took the spiritual stones and went out as happily as the three casual cultivators before.
Wang Shoujiang asked Wang Daoyuan: "Daoyuan, what do you think of the cooperation with Lvliuzhou?"
Wang Daoyuan thought for a while and replied: "There is no loss in this matter. If we can exchange spiritual grain and other materials for the resources in the Tianzhan Mountain Range, it can be considered a big profit.
Because the Foundation Establishment Pills will be auctioned in a year, every family is trying their best to sell off supplies, making business difficult.
If we can do business with Lvliuzhou, it will be an excellent source of wealth, and our Wang family will be more certain of winning a Foundation Establishment Pill.
It’s just that I don’t know much about Green Liuzhou, and I can’t make an accurate judgment, so it’s better to go back and ask the clan leader for instructions.”
Wang Shoujiang nodded and said: "Let's do it this way. I need to guard Jingtieshan and cannot leave my post without permission. Daoxing is unreliable, so you should go back to your family."
Wang Daoxing protested: "Why am I so unreliable in my work? Did I make a mistake when I was asked to hit someone?"
The two looked at him with contempt and ignored him.
Wang Daoyuan replied: "Okay, I'll go back, and I just want to report on the missing persons, so I'll do the two things at the same time.
Without further ado, I’ll leave right away.”
Wang Shoujiang said: "Be careful on the road. There is Liang Zixing in your spirit beast bag. Be careful when crossing the Liang family's territory, lest you be discovered by the Liang family. It will be difficult to deal with it."
"Don't worry, Eighth Uncle, I will be careful." Wang Daoyuan cupped his hands and said, "I will choose which way to go depending on the situation. If it doesn't work, I can also take the land route back to Yuquan Peak."
After saying goodbye to his eighth uncle, Wang Daoyuan left Jingtie Mountain, took the family's boat transporting hematite ore downstream, and disembarked at Qingxi Village.
It wasn't that he was delaying his trip, but that he was injured by the Soul-Destroying Bell when he was fighting with Qi Yun. At first, his nerves were tense, and he didn't take it seriously if he felt a little uncomfortable.
After understanding the matter and relaxing, I felt a splitting headache and a dull pain in my internal organs.
It's not a big deal if you're physically injured. Just take some healing elixirs and you'll be fine.
Damage to the soul is not a trivial matter, as it may affect the future. For the sake of the future, stay at home temporarily to recover from the injury to the soul.
