Volume 1 Ordinary Hidden Immortals Chapter 20 Entering the Money Mansion
Hearing the cheerful birdsong outside the window, Nangong Xiao rubbed his eyes, which were still a little hazy, yawned, and stretched comfortably on the bed.
Then he silently recited the Pei Yuan Gong Mental Method, and the mana in his body worked slightly, and the fatigue in his brain disappeared without a trace in an instant.
The first thing I wanted to do when I got up was naturally to check the growth of the spirit grass in the small jar.
Nangong Xiao came to a hidden place outside the city, took out a small jar and held it in his palm, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva secretly.
Although he knew that the small jar had caused him any damage, he still felt a palpitation in his heart when he felt that his whole body mana was about to be sucked dry last time.
If it weren't for the fact that he reached the middle stage of cultivation by chance, the mana in his whole body would not be enough to absorb this small jar, and it would be very likely to cause regression in his cultivation in the end.
Nangong Xiao took a deep breath, dispelled these negative feelings, and after seeing that there was no one around, he began to input mana into the small can. Although he tried his best to control the speed of mana output, it was useless.
The small jar still went its own way and frantically absorbed almost all of Nangong Xiao's mana, and then turned into a flower bed and smashed on the ground with a bang.
Nangong Xiao, whose face was a little pale, stared at the flower bed and felt bitter in his heart, it seemed that only by further cultivating himself could he get rid of this uncomfortable process.
He stood up slightly weakly, leaning over to look at the spirit grass that had been transplanted by him a day earlier.
There was a hint of surprise on his pale face. The mature spirit grass in the flower bed has not changed much, but the spirit grass seedlings are growing well, and under the contrast of the markings, basically all the seedlings have grown as tall as a child's thumb.
If it continues to grow like this, it won't take more than a month for these spirit grasses to mature. But he also noticed something not quite right. The purple soil was slightly lighter in color than yesterday, and although the change was small, it still made him see something strange as a monk.
He thought about it for a while, and guessed that this might be caused by the spirit grass absorbing the spiritual energy in the soil, and if it continued like this, the time it took to cultivate the spirit grass would become longer and longer, and in the end, it might turn into ordinary soil.
Nangong Xiao naturally didn't want this to happen, but in this case, he would have to move the spirit grass out, but if he moved out, what would he use to improve his cultivation, but if he didn't, he was not just fishing with all his might.
"It's a strange circle." Nangong Xiao sighed and couldn't help but say.
Suddenly, he remembered that the flower bed itself could absorb aura, and wouldn't that solve the problem?
But he soon rejected this view, because the flower bed absorbed too little aura.
Besides, it is impossible to put a flower bed outside all day, such an obvious thing will one day be exposed.
I don't have anything else, after all, how powerful I am is is just the down-and-out young master of the Li family.
Suddenly, a smile appeared on the corner of Nangong Xiao's mouth, and he thought of a suitable candidate, who could not only provide him with a hidden place, but also not afraid of revealing his identity. And it's time to meet this person.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lucheng at night is exceptionally quiet, except for one or two places where the wind and willows are in the moon, the street shops and restaurants are closed early, and there is only the occasional sound of watching.
At this time, a black shadow rose and fell rapidly between the roof tiles, and its speed was so fast that even the masters of the rivers and lakes could only look up.
Like a night owl, it flew silently over the heads of many families in the Qian Mansion, without alarming anyone.
After flying over several courtyards, a black shadow slowly fell like a leaf to the corner of a large house.
In the room, Qian Baocai was dealing with the accounts of various money banks and other shops, but his mind was not much on them.
A few days ago, on the way to handle a shipment, he was robbed by bandits and met a high-ranking person. This person wiped out the dozen or so people in an understatement.
The weirdness of his body and the strength of his shots are unheard of by him. This reminded him of a type of person, and that was an immortal cultivator.
It was still something he heard occasionally in a casual conversation with a friend. Listening to what a friend said, immortal cultivators can go to heaven and earth, move mountains and seas, and have a long lifespan. He was very interested, but unfortunately he didn't have the opportunity to meet him.
When I saw this person this time, I thought that he was an immortal cultivator, and under the great joy, he naturally tried his best to please.
But that person didn't get in, so he was anxious to hand over the personal token to this person, hoping to get the favor of the other party. If nothing else, if that person is happy to pass on some immortal methods, he will be of infinite use.
In addition, if you can keep this great god, then your future career will be a lot of money. But in the past few days, I heard that the master only bought a few clothes in a silk factory, and he never appeared.
This made him anxious, blaming himself for not having a way to find this person, if that person is gone, won't he be beaten with chickens and eggs. So Qian Baocai has not eaten well and slept well these days, and he is absent-minded in everything.
Just as he was distressed, someone pushed the door open and entered. Qian Baocai was angry and had nowhere to go, and when he saw that someone had trespassed into his study, he couldn't help but scold: "Dog slave, didn't you say that no one can enter the ...... at this hour?"
Before he finished scolding, when he saw Nangong Xiao who seemed to be smiling in front of him, he swallowed the words behind him, his face turned from white to red, and he changed to a smiling face, and quickly got up from the chair and shook it respectfully: "It's the villain's mouth that is not pumping, what kind of wind blew you here?" As he spoke, he gave himself a mouthful.
Nangong Xiao admired Qian Baocai's happiness in changing his face, and said quietly on his face, "Master Qian seems to be in a bad mood, it doesn't seem like the time for me to come, I think it's better to come back to visit that day." ”
"If you can visit the seniors, it will naturally make the humble house shine, and it will be too late for the younger generations to welcome you."
When Qian Baocai saw Nangong Xiao's arrival, the depression in his heart was swept away, and his expression improved greatly.
Introduced Nangong Xiao into the upper seat, personally served tea and water, and then carefully came to Nangong Xiao, and asked in a low voice: "I don't know what the seniors are doing when they come to find the juniors, as long as the juniors are within their ability, they will go to the knife mountain and get off the oil pot." ”
Nangong Xiao looked at Qian Baocai with an unchanged expression, neither arrogant nor ostentatious, so that it was even more mysterious, Qian Baocai looked at it in his eyes, and his expression became more respectful.
Nangong Xiao admired his words, which not only reflected his loyalty, but also left a way out for himself, which is worthy of being mixed up in the business world for many years. I can feel more at ease if I leave it to this person.
Thinking of this, he said calmly, "It seems that you know who I am, but I didn't expect you to have a wide range of knowledge." I do have something to do with you, and I don't need you to go up the knife mountain and go down the oil pot, and the benefits will naturally be indispensable to you. But people like us don't like to be disturbed by worldly people. So it's enough for you to know me. ”
Nangong Xiao used some mana slightly while speaking, making his words sound like they were ringing in his ears, the purpose was to show his hand, not only to deter Qian Baocai, eliminate his doubts, increase his mystery, but also make him dare not make any crooked ideas or small movements.
