Chapter 37 Agreement
Zuzhou, Zhao, the top of Yunwu Mountain.
There are tens of thousands of meters of clouds and fog. From the middle of the mountain, it has been surrounded by clouds and fog all year round, which is mysterious and unpredictable.
From time to time, there are good people who go up the mountain to peep. As long as they cross the mountainside, they are immediately like being in a dream, surrounded by white fog, and they can't see their fingers. Whenever someone enters, he will return to the mountainside after a while, and he can't go up the mountain anyway. After a long time, there were rumors that there were immortals living on the mountain and did not like mortals to disturb.
So there are rich people in the world who build immortal temples at the foot of the mountain, so that people from all four villages and eight villages can come to worship, hoping to get the blessing of immortals, but no one dares to go to the mountain again.
If there are immortals here, they must laugh at what these mortals have done. You should know that this Yunwu Mountain is the place where Zuzhou cultivates immortals and Yunwu Sect is located.
On the top of Yunwu Mountain, there are more than a dozen floating mountains, the largest of which is dozens of times larger than the cave of Huolingzi, suspended in the air, like the pagoda in the hands of the King of Tota. The rest of the floating mountains stand around it, just like the stars arching the moon.
In the cave in Fushan, in the tall stone hall, a majestic voice said:
"What did the chief elder of the Alchemy Sect say?"
An old man in gray knelt on the floor of the stone hall and said to the high Yin Wusang in a very respectful tone:
"The suzerain, the elder of the refining sect said that there was also a disciple who refined the weapon with Huo Lingzi at that time. His new apprentice was named Shi Lei. However, when Ge Xianshan was exterminated by the suzerain, he had left and disappeared!"
Yin Wusang sat in a wide stone chair, frowned, picked up a cup of fairy tea on the tea table beside him, took a sip, and said:
"This person must know what the fire spirit is refining. Maybe the artifact is on him."
"The disciple immediately sent someone down the mountain to inquire about the whereabouts of this man!"
The old man in gray was about to leave when he was ordered to leave. Suddenly, he remembered something and turned around and said to Yin Wusang:
"How to deal with the elder of the Immortal Refining Sect, please ask the suzerain to show me!"
When Yin Wusang heard the words, he blew the floating tea in the teacup and said with a casual smile:
"Isn't there still a shortage of materials for refining puppets at Daoming's nephew? You can send it to him."
The old man in gray heard the name of Daoming, fought a cold war all over his body, saluted respectfully, and withdrew from the cave.
Yin Wusang put down the teacup, stood up, stared at the clouds outside the cave, smiled and said to himself:
"Fire spirit son, what kind of artifact do you refine? It can attract thunder to the earth. I'm really getting more and more interested."
*************
Zuzhou, Qi, Hucheng.
On the fifth floor of the Moon Building, there are now two people sitting against the window, drinking and talking, and having fun. It is Shi Lei and Hu Xuefei.
Shi Lei also changed his clothes and washed all the blood stains on his body. He looked like a young man.
One is to be favored, and the other is to make friends intentionally. Under the negotiation, the guests are all happy.
Shi Lei grew up in Youzhen since he was a child. Although he had read a lot of books and later went to the Immortal Refining Sect, he was still in a fog for the cultivation of immortals in the ancestral continent. He didn't know what was going on inside. With the warm hospitality of Hu Xuefei, he roughly knew the current situation in the cultivation world.
There are more than a dozen families in the cultivation of immortals in Zuzhou. There are fifty or sixty middle gates such as the Refining Immortal Sect, and there are more, hundreds of them. Next, there are countless immortal cultivation families like the Hu family, which are countless in the mainland of Zuzhou, and they are located in the Xianshan Lingfu everywhere in Zuzhou.
The highest cultivation in the general family is just Jie Dan. Of course, there are also some families with Yuanying monks, who are the targets of various sects competing for each other, which is more popular than the general middle door.
Hearing this, Shi Lei put down the wine glass and asked curiously:
"Hu Daoyou, as the owner of Hu City, I think your Hu family must be an immortal cultivation family, right?"
When Hu Xuefei heard the words, he showed a look of shame on his face. He drank all the wine in the glass and sighed deeply:
"Alas... Where is it? It's just a small family. Who will be greedy for this secular wealth in the big family! On the contrary, you are a stone Taoist friend. The world is big. Where can you go? How free and comfortable you are.
After saying that, he took a long breath again. Shi Lei looked in his eyes, moved his heart, and said with a normal look on his face:
"Look at Hu Daoyou, you look depressed. Is there anything difficult to say? You have saved my family's life. If there is anything I can do to help, please don't be polite!"
Hu Xuefei raised her eyes and looked at Shi Lei seriously, as if she wanted to find out something. After looking at it for a long time, she saw that the other party looked as usual and did not seem to be hypocritical. Then she gritted her teeth and said seriously:
"Shi Daoyou, I'm like an old friend when I see you. If you don't mind, I'll call you a wise brother, how about that?"
Shi Lei has already had a deep understanding of the sinister people's hearts in the Lianxian Sect. How can he dig out his heart to people he knows for the first time? He just said with a smile:
"Since Brother Hu is in love, how dare I not obey!"
When Hu Xuefei saw that Shi Lei agreed, he immediately smiled brightly, filled the two cups, and then said:
"Okay, let's talk to you about my Hu family."
Shi Lei nodded and agreed, and Hu Xuefei said endlessly. From time to time, he shook his head and sighed with a lot of emotions. Shi Lei also frowned when he heard it.
It turned out that the Hu family was originally a relatively large family of immortal cultivation in Qi. There had been several monks in the family, but those monks had died one after another in the past 50 years. Today, the owner of the Hu family is only a cultivation in the middle of foundation, so the status of the whole family has plummeted, suppressed by other families, and many of the original territory has been robbed. Many people in the clan also began to leave the Hu family to seek development in the immortal cultivation sect.
When Shi Lei heard this, he thought to himself: There are thousands of disciples of the Immortal Sect, and there are so many Jiedan monks. It's not good to leave a piece of land for you.
Going on, Hu Xuefei's words began to be bitter.
Under the internal and external troubles, the current owner of the Hu family announced that he would be closed to the later stage of building a foundation, and after success, he will enter the Jiedan period. The position of the head of the family will be passed on to his son, that is, one of Hu Xuefei and another son Hu Feng.
Hu Feng was the eldest son and the eldest son of the eldest lady, and Hu Xuefei was just a concubine. Although he was called a young master in the family, he bowed down everywhere and was very uncomfortable. Then he automatically asked to come to Hucheng to be the city owner for a quiet and comfortable life. Fortunately, the lord of the State of Qi valued the second young master of the Hu family very much. Glory and wealth are indispensable.
"So, isn't Brother Hu very comfortable in the secular world?"
Hu Xuefei looked at Shi Lei strangely, poured the wine in front of him into his throat, and said sullenly:
"What we immortals seek is to grow into immortals. There is no nostalgia for the wealth in this world. Unfortunately, a few years ago, I was like this. I lost the support of my family, and my cultivation has not been improved. If you want to say that I am more than ten times more qualified than Hu Feng, I really don't want him to be the head of the family!"
Shi Lei could only nod sympathetically. Hu Xuefei's qualification is really good, and Shan Linggen is also a good qualification. If it were him, he would not be willing. It's just that he is still on the run, and he is also taking Shi Tie's family with him. It's really not suitable to take this topic, so he has to choose to be silent.
Hu Xuefei saw that Shi Lei was silent and frowned more tightly. After thinking about it, he said to himself:
"Brother Shi Xian, I think you seem to have been hunted down by your enemies. Why don't you stay and help me compete for the position of the head of the family? I will keep you safe in the country. How about that? In addition, your family can also settle down in Hucheng, and I'll take care of everything!"
When Shi Lei heard this proposal, he couldn't help but think of the strength of the Hu family, he immediately shook his head again.
Hu Xuefei saw that Shi Lei was unmoved. Looking at his expression, he immediately understood what was going on and said quickly:
"Although my Hu family is not strong enough now, the State of Qi is supported by Tianjian Sect. The Hu family also has some connections with Tianjian Sect, otherwise they would have been exterminated by other big families. With the guarantee of Tianjian Sect, isn't Shi Xiandi worried?
Shi Lei thought about it carefully and thought it was a good idea. The Hu family is low, and it is difficult for others to find it when he hides in it. With the care of Hu Xuefei, his uncle's family naturally doesn't have to follow him. The most important thing is that if I help Hu Xuefei become the head of the family, I can find a cave on the fairy mountain of the Hu family to practice the secret of returning to the Yuanlingtai. Isn't it the best of both?
Thinking of this, Shi Lei smiled, drank all the wine in the glass, and said to Hu Xuefei:
"Brother Hu, it's not that I don't want to help this, but I just want to improve my cultivation as soon as possible, so as to avenge the enemy. Besides, there are so many foundation monks in your Hu family, why do you come to me?"
Hu Xuefei saw that Shi Lei had wavered and didn't understand the truth, so he said:
"Brother, you don't know that this battle between the head of the family is a fight between me and Hu Feng. Both sides can choose a helper, but it can't be above the foundation period, so I hope that the virtuous brother can help me. After everything is done, I will give you a thousand elixirs, a hundred pieces of medium-grade spiritual jade, and choose any virtuous brother in Xianshan Cave Mansion. How about it? This is the maximum I can pay. After all, the Hu family is not as good as before.
This is already the biggest bargaining chip that Hu Xuefei can take out. If Shi Lei refuses, he will have to find another helper, but this period of comparison is approaching. How can he find someone for a while? Besides, who is willing to care about such business as ordinary immortals?
Looking at Hu Xuefei's painful face, Shi Lei smiled secretly: I don't know how many best elixirs there are in his storage bag. Zhongpin Lingyu and Dongfu are what they need, but they didn't expect Hu Xuefei to show the bottom card in such a hurry. So he smiled and said:
"Since Brother Hu thinks so highly of me, I will do my best to help!"
