Chapter 1278: Not Taken
I don't know why, Feng Jun's eyes actually gave birth to a strong sense of "coal boss".
Does the coal boss have any decent backstage? There really isn't, because they have local resources and can earn money that others can't earn, and outsiders really can't replace them.
Of course, with a policy of "the country advances and the people retreat", the coal boss will be paralyzed, and after all, his arms can't twist his thighs.
However, without this policy, it is not easy to govern effectively.
Two days later, two male disciples of Taiqing rushed to the market, both of whom were high-level qi refiners, and one of them was over one hundred and seventeen years old, and he was considered the patriarch of a small local family.
Among the disciples of Taiqing, this situation is not too rare, there is no hope of progress, and there is no better development prospect if they stay in the sect, in this case, these miscellaneous disciples have a variety of choices. It can be put out to the local area, which is a contact network of Taiqing.
Of course, if there is a big event in Taiqing, they must rush back and work hard.
Generally speaking, after a disciple enters the sect, he must draw a clear line with the family, but the rule is that the dead are alive, and the people who have already retired are all old, and secretly contact the family, as long as they don't do anything out of the ordinary, most of the other fellow disciples will turn a blind eye.
This old Qi refining disciple couldn't be idle, but when he heard that a sect master wanted to travel to Songhai Forest, he rushed to serve.
This person's semi-open return to the family is actually a taboo thing, even if the other Taiqing disciples don't say it, it will be difficult to get some more sect tasks, but at that time, there was something in his family, and it was difficult for him to survive if he didn't take the lead.
As a result, ten years ago, there was a child with excellent qualifications in the family, and he wanted to send him to Taiqing, but basically there was no room for operation - an outdated disciple like him, even if he stayed in the sect to retire, it was not easy to operate similar things.
Anyway, he came very enthusiastically and carefully introduced the surrounding situation - if Kong Ziyi could contact him at the beginning, he wouldn't have to ask Fang Wenping at all.
The old Qi refining disciple was very familiar with the surrounding situation, but in terms of details, it was still somewhat worse, after all, the best years of his life were all near Taiqing.
The other Qi Refining disciple was even more unfamiliar with this place, but it was definitely stronger than Feng Jun and Kong Ziyi.
The old Qi refining disciple suggested that among his clansmen, there are people who are more familiar with this place, and ask if you want a tour guide?
Kong Ziyi didn't understand the point of traveling here at all, so let Feng Jun call the shots.
After Feng Jun asked a few words, he felt that the clansmen of the old Qi refining disciples were not very familiar with this place - after all, their place of residence was still more than 100,000 miles away from here, so he made a decision: Let's hire locals.
The old Qi refining disciple immediately introduced the two dusty families, the families are not big, less than 10,000 people, but there is more than one dusty master in the clan, he is not very familiar with these two families, but people also know the identity of his Taiqing disciple, and he has dealt with some before.
The reason why he suggested this was not to find a person to be a tour guide - as long as he was familiar with the road, it was enough to refine the qi at a high or intermediate level, the key was that these two families had a family drag, and most of them did not dare to play with the Master of Taiqing.
That's right, the people here are still so lawless, and the Venerable Master who is too clear is not incapable of yin.
Not to mention anything else, let's just say that Fang Wenping, who had visited Kong Ziyi, the old Qi refining disciple said that he had never heard of such a Venerable Master - people may not have deliberately deceived Kong Ziyi, mainly in the land of right and wrong, ordinary people often use fake names.
When the two families heard that it was the Venerable Master from Taiqing who wanted to find a guide, the Venerable Master of one of them was so moved that they took the initiative to come to Kong Ziyi and said that I will show you the way, and I don't want to be paid, so please help me kill a wild beast.
The wild beast is a golden-veined flying bear, which can fly but does not fly high, mostly by gliding, with infinite strength and acceptable combat effectiveness, mainly because it can spray venom.
The old Qi refining disciple understood as soon as he heard it, "What kind of genius earth treasure is that desolate beast guarding, right?"
"It's guarding a few blue-leaved pearl grass," the Venerable Master didn't hide it, "If you want it, it's okay to give it to you, I just want to kill that golden-veined flying bear, and I need that bear bile." ”
Lao Lianqi's brows furrowed, and he spoke in surprise, "The three masters of your Yuan family, you still have to ask for foreign aid to deal with a golden-veined flying bear, and share the profits?"
"That's not how the three Venerable Masters are used," Venerable Yuan glanced at him, "If you don't have a Venerable Master in your family, you think that there are too many Venerable Men, and when you have three Venerable Masters in your family, you will know that you can't afford to lose any of them!"
He explained to Kong Ziyi, "I haven't been there for a long time, and I'm not sure if the golden-veined flying bear will have a partner, although it is said that a pair of golden-veined flying bears, my Yuan family will not be afraid, but if it is targeted by people with ulterior motives, it will be a big trouble." ”
"Master Kong, you are too clear and high-footed, I can absolutely trust it, and I walk with the two of you, so naturally I am not afraid of others coveting it...... I just hope that others will see that my help is excellent, and I don't dare to think rashly. ”
Kong Ziyi laughed when he heard this, "Then, the two of us can still get the Blue Leaf Pearl Grass?"
"That's right," Master Yuan nodded very dryly, "I invited the two Taoist friends to go forward, how can I get some foot money." ”
The old Qi refining disciple couldn't cry or laugh when he heard it, and couldn't help but interject out loud, "Uncle Kong, the people here fight all day long, and they are a little reckless when they speak, don't be surprised." ”
"It's okay," Kong Ziyi smiled and looked sideways at Feng Jun, "What does Feng Shan think?"
Feng Junzhen was not interested in escorting others, but it was obvious that Ziyi Daoyou had some interest, and since the two of them claimed to be traveling, they always had to have a traveling appearance, so he smiled, "Forget about the blue leaf pearl grass, let's not pay the guide money." ”
When Master Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but glance at the old Qi refining disciple - can this guy be the master of the Taiqing Master?
This one could only pout helplessly: I'm also curious.
Once the cultivator made a decision, his action power was still very strong, and after ten minutes, Feng Jun put away his walk, and everyone went straight to the Forest of Lost Souls, which was a hundred miles away.
This piece is called the pine sea forest, it is mainly pine trees, most of them are towering trees of more than 100 zhang, although it is a coniferous forest, but the big trees are too tall and too much, the outside is just rubbing black, and the pine forest is already out of sight.
Because it was the first day in the forest, everyone didn't go too deep, found an empty place, lit a bonfire, and released their own defensive arrays.
The defensive formation was divided into four, one each for Kong Ziyi, Feng Jun and Yuan Shangren, and the old Qi Refining Disciple also brought one, dragging the Taiqing Qi Refining Disciple who was traveling with him into it.
At night in the Lost Soul Forest, there are a lot of small animals and insects, and if there is no defensive array, it is really difficult to survive this level.
Feng Jun looked at the thick pine trees in a daze, pine trees with a diameter of one or two meters at breast height abounded, and there were even those with a diameter of five or six meters at breast height, "This thing should be very cool to cut back and make a house, right?"
"No," Master Yuan waved his hand hurriedly when he heard this, "The trees in the Forest of Lost Souls can't be cut down indiscriminately, this place is considered the periphery, and if you go three hundred miles deeper, it can really be ecstatic, and the trees on the periphery are left, which can be regarded as a kind of protection for the human race." ”
"If you cut it down uncontrollably, and you really cut it to the distance of being a neighbor of the desolate beast, who would dare to stay any longer?"
Feng Jun nodded when he heard this, "It turns out that there is such a use, so within these three hundred miles, there are relatively few desolate beasts?"
Master Yuan replied with a deep sigh, "It's not too little, the outermost fifty miles is a little less, after all, there are many people coming in, and the more you go inside, the more wild beasts there are, but if the forest is cut down, it will be directly next to the Ecstasy Forest, then they can only come out, and we can't get in." ”
The old Qi refining disciple spoke in a deep voice, "However, in addition to the terrible beasts in the forest, the people are also terrifying, otherwise we can fly close to the treetops, but in that case, it is too easy to be discovered." ”
The next day we met a lone leopard, but fortunately, the three masters took turns to probe with their senses, and when the leopard approached, they found it in time.
Because he was in a relatively sparse place with sparse trees at that time, Feng Jun's shaking hand was a lightning technique, which stiffened the Moyun Leopard, Kong Ziyi pointed at his hand, and a white light shot out, and a stream of blood arrows suddenly burst out from the Moyun Leopard's body.
The old Qi refining disciple shouted "Leopard Skin", but it was already too late.
Master Yuan was still a little more open-minded, and he said with a smile, "The Moyun Leopard is also worth a little money with its eyes, skin, and bones, and Master Feng has a thunderbolt technique, and this skin is already useless...... However, it is best not to hurt anyone. ”
Don't look at it as a wild beast, it is really not very valuable, the whole body is added up, that is, the appearance of two hundred spirit stones, of which the leopard skin can be worth eighty spirits, a pair of eyes can be used medicinally, it is worth fifty spirit stones, and the other messes add up, it is also seventy or eighty spirits.
And the golden-veined flying bear they want to hunt, and one bear bile is worth five hundred souls.
The prices of spirit beasts and desolate beasts all depend on the specific situation, like Feng Jun defended the city in Qiuchenfang City back then, and most of the spirit beasts killed were worth twenty or thirty spirit stones, and some of the desolate beasts were only worth one hundred and ten spirit stones.
He is now talking about what happened back then, "I'm sorry, I'm used to fighting in the tide of spirit beasts." ”
"This is also normal," Yuan Shangren nodded, but the expression on his face, no matter what, did not fit the context of "this is also normal", "What Feng Shangren said was war, we are hunting with baht, and the purpose is originally different." ”
When Kong Ziyi heard this, he couldn't help but speak out loud, "But...... Human life always comes first, right?"
Yuan Shangren glanced at her helplessly, "You are from four factions and five Taiwans, for us, survival is the first thing, in order to get enough benefits, take a little risk and suffer a little injury, it is really not worth mentioning." ”
He was not afraid that his words would anger the other party, the Venerable Master of Taiqing had come to practice, similar to the kind of Hongchen refining the heart, and when he said this, he was just providing the other party with a real experience experience.
