Chapter 23: The Fledgling (Part I)
"Ding-dong, ding-dong!"
Although the bell is louder, it is not in a hurry. Xia Jingjun knew that this was an important matter for the patriarch of the family to find him.
Hearing this bell, even if he is in retreat and cultivation, he will have to leave the level within half a month. Otherwise, they will be punished by the family.
If the bell rings loudly and urgently, it means that the family has encountered a serious crisis, even an existential crisis. No matter what state he is in, he must end his cultivation and go out immediately.
Xia Jingjun sat and watched for a while before taking out the storage bag and putting away the common sense books of cultivation. Then, the senior martial artist who went out and rang the bell outside the door asked, "Brother Liu, the patriarch is looking for me, do you know what happened?"
"Hello Third Young Master, you came out so soon!"
Brother Liu first saluted respectfully before replying in a low voice: "Recently, our Lin family's caravan has been attacked by the Soul Breaker Gang bandits several times outside, causing great losses. Letting the third young master come out this time is related to this matter!"
"I see!" Xia Jingjun's face showed a murderous aura, and he said coldly: "These damn bandits, if Young Master Ben doesn't go to them to settle accounts, he has already calculated their luck." Unexpectedly, they would dare to attack our Lin family's caravan, they are really looking for death!"
While speaking, Xia Jingjun hurriedly walked towards the place where the patriarch Lin Yuzhong was working.
Xia Jingjun knew that this was a big trouble he had caused. Last time, he killed a large group of monks and martial artists of the Soul Breaking Gang, and the bandits of the Soul Breaking Gang will definitely take revenge on the Lin family.
In Lin Yuzhong's study, Lin Fengli, Lin Yuxun, Lin Hongxin and other core monks of the family were talking about the attack on the caravan.
Lin Yuxun looked angry, stood up and shouted loudly: "I think this matter is because of the Bai family's encouragement. Since I can't find the Soul Breaker Gang bandits hiding in the shadows, I'll go to the Bai family to seek justice!"
After entering the fourth layer of the Qi Induction Period, Lin Yuxun's cultivation entered a new level. His voice has also improved significantly.
"You find the Bai family, you have a fart! Don't think that if you have made some progress in cultivation, you can be bold and reckless!"
Lin Fengli glared at him and coldly refuted: "Do you have evidence? Bai Hanlin can't find a chance to attack you, if you dare to come to the door to find trouble, he will take your surname with a knife, and we have no place to reason. ”
"Ugh!"
Lin Yuxun was stunned for a moment, sat down unwillingly, and whispered: "In this way, let the Bai family deal with us, but we will sit idly by and let the family continue to suffer huge losses." ”
"At present, we must not immediately turn against the Bai family. Patriarch Lin Yuzhong groaned: "For today's plan, we still have to put patience first. As long as the time comes, don't talk about their Bai family, it's the Soul Breaking Gang, we also want to make him look good!"
Lin Hongxin said: "If the Soul Breaker Gang refuses to stop, in order to reduce the losses, we can only reduce the travel of the family caravan on the one hand. On the other hand, every time a caravan travels, it is necessary to strengthen the escort force. In this way, within three to five years, although the family's financial resources will be drastically reduced, it will barely be able to sustain itself. ”
"Just do what the letter says!"
Lin Yuzhong and Lin Fengli nodded in agreement.
Lin Hongxin said again: "Dad, this time I escorted the goods to Yanzhou Prefecture, just in case, I see that in addition to Brother Jun, the fifth uncle will also go together." ”
"Okay, these few times the Soul Breaker Gang has tasted the sweetness, and the momentum is getting more and more fierce, and the fifth brother will go together, I am more at ease. Lin Yuzhong nodded in agreement.
The value of the goods escorted by Lin Hongxin this time is huge, and if they are looted by the bandits of the Broken Soul Gang, the consequences will be unimaginable. Therefore, Lin Yuzhong sent someone to inform Xia Jingjun before, preparing to let Xia Jingjun leave early and escort this batch of goods to Yanzhou Prefecture with Lin Hongxin.
"It's best for me to go with me!" Lin Yuxun's face turned ruthless, and he said: "If those bandits dare to appear again on the way, I want them to come and go!"
Lin Yuzhong said to Lin Fengli: "Dad, you stay at home and sit in the town, and at the same time cultivate the mid-grade exercises of the ground level to improve your cultivation." ”
Everyone talked for a while, Xia Jingjun arrived, and Lin Xiuwang, the chief manager who was guarding the door, came in to report and was allowed to enter.
"Jun'er, aren't you in retreat and cultivating, why did you come so soon?" Lin Yuzhong said happily.
Xia Jingjun greeted the elders one by one before replying, "The child happened to be fine after cultivating, so he came over." The child also knows about the robbery of the caravan by the Broken Soul Gang, I wonder how my father is going to deal with it?"
Lin Yuzhong talked about the results of everyone's discussion, and said to Xia Jingjun: "This time, Xin'er is responsible for escorting a large number of spiritual grass and spiritual grains and Xuantie to Yanzhou Prefecture City to major customers, and there is no room for loss. You happened to be about to go to Yanyun Sect to cultivate, so I asked you to come out and escort you forward with your fifth uncle and the others. ”
Xia Jingjun nodded and agreed, with him and Lin Yuzhong, a monk who had entered the fourth layer of the Qi Induction Period, escorted together, as long as the Soul Breaking Gang did not attack on a large scale, it would definitely be foolproof.
Lin Hongxin also said with a smile: "Originally, I thought that I would have to wait a few days before I could set off, but since Brother Jun came out so soon, let's leave early tomorrow morning." ”
Xia Jingjun said loudly: "Recently, I have cultivated to make great progress, and I am thinking about doing my part for the family. However, the enemy is dark and I am bright, I asked the fifth uncle to escort in the light, and I hid in the dark to follow and protect, so that the enemy could not figure out our reality and reality. ”
"Just do as Jun'er says!" Seeing that Xia Jingjun was so careful and thorough, Lin Yuzhong nodded and agreed with confidence.
Then, Lin Yuzhong ordered the chief manager Lin Xiuwang to take thirty low-grade spirit stones and hand them over to Xia Jingjun.
"Jun'er, when you enter the fourth layer of the Qi Extraction Period, you can already absorb the spiritual power in the spirit stone and speed up your cultivation. These thirty spirit stones should be enough for you to absorb and cultivate for about three years. Lin Yuzhong said.
"Thank you, Dad, however, the family's financial situation is worrying now, and if necessary, they may need to exchange these spirit stones for other necessities. I can't accept these spirit stones. Xia Jingjun refused to accept it and excused himself.
"Brother Jun, you can accept it! The family has had a good business in recent years, accumulated a lot of goods, and exchanged a lot of spirit stones with Yanyun Sect, which is not inferior to your thirty spirit stones. Lin Hongxin showed envy and persuaded.
"Xin'er is right!" Lin Yuxun also said: "When you enter the fourth layer of the Qi Induction Period, you can get the spirit stone cultivation, this is the rule of the family. If you don't accept it, you're breaking the rules. ”
"However, I heard that after entering the Yanyun Sect, you can also get the spirit stones you need for cultivation. Xia Jingjun still didn't want to accept it.
"Jun'er, you just accept it!" Lin Fengli said with a relieved face: "A family is a family, and a sect is a sect." As a monk above the fourth layer of the Qi Induction Period, it is also advisable to put more spirit stones around you in case of emergency. ”
Everyone persuaded each other, Xia Jingjun had to accept all the thirty spirit stones, and after making an appointment with Lin Hongxin to leave the next day, they dispersed to prepare.
